  • Albatross uses dynamic soaring technique to obtain energy from horizontal winds and fly long distances without flapping. These dynamic soaring technique can be applied to manned/unmanned aircraft to reduce the components required for the aircraft and achieve light weight and small volume to effectively perform a given task. In this paper, to simulate the dynamic soaring technique of Albatross, we defined the optimization problem and set each boundary condition to derive the optimal flight trajectory and carry out simulations to follow it. In particular, to model dynamic soaring simulations more closely with reality, we proposed a horizontal wind model that changes every moment. This identifies and analyzes the effect of the time-variable horizontal wind model on the dynamic soaring mission of unmanned aircraft.

  • In this paper, we analyze the correlation between social sentiment and stock prices. Polarity analysis is conducted for the stock prices plunging and soaring duration. And it is performed for its prior period. Using these results, we analyze the relationship between the social sentiment and stock prices. We collected the past data of Dow Jones Industrial Average and detected the period of plunging and soaring. On the basis of the detected time, the New York Times articles are collected and polarity analysis is conducted. Frequency of negative terms is decreased and it of positive terms is increased during the stock prices soaring. There is a little difference between the frequency of negative and positive terms in the previous stock prices plunging or soaring. According to the correlation analysis, it shows a positive correlation between social sentiment and stock prices in the period of plunging and soaring. A significant correlation is not appeared in the previous stock prices plunging or soaring.

  • Ginkgo trees have long been planted in Korea as roadside trees and ornamental trees, but the wood was seldom used except some utilization f3r small artifacts. Soaring prices of imported wood and future uncertainty about long-term supply of foreign woods have stimulated research on value-added utilization of less-utilized domestic wood resources such as Ginkgo wood. The processing properties of Ginkgo wood were investigated to determine its utilization potential in this study, and the results of treatability, drying characteristics, gluability, paintability, bending properties, chemical discoloration characteristics were presented.

Soaring prices of imported wood and future uncertainty about long-term supply of foreign woods have stimulated research on value-added utilization of less-utilized domestic wood resources such as Ginkgo wood. The properties of Ginkgo wood were investigated to determine its utilization potential in this study, and the results of anatomical, physical, and mechanical studies were presented with chemical compositions.

  • In recent years, soaring traffic volumes over optical communications networks lead to the rapid advances in information communications equipments. In backbone communications networks, there has been an advance in high-density transmission through DWDM, which can simultaneously transmit numerous signals with different wavelengths. When the channel spacing is narrower, the cross-talk between channels an important parameter that guarantees to the high performance of a whole system, becomes critical. (omitted)

  • Safety is soaring up as a core value in accordance with the recent improvement of operating speed & incidents. rolling stock is a kind of system which works together with several components. one component has an effect on the sub-system, which can cause to the train safety operation, therefore reliability management of the major components of rolling stock is a kind of solution to the safety operation of train, but realistically maintenance in korea performed based on period rather than TBO of major components, but Japan does new maintenance system based on the major components, which optimizes maintenance tasks. actually Japan can apply to new maintenance system because they are ready in planning step but in this study, making a reliability data of major components and review the adaptability of new maintenance system to the rolling stock operating in Ansan line.

  • At a time when the demand for environmentally friendly products is soaring, the fashion industry is following suit. The industry is showing particular interest in natural-dyed products. Against this backdrop, this study conducted a literature review on the history of natural dyeing for textiles and on the types of natural dyes. In addition, this study identified recent trends in the fashion industry and applied the findings from the literature review to those trends. Through this process, possibilities for new designs were suggested. This study proposed designs for various items-t shirts, one-piece dresses, blouses, skirts, and knitwear-by using threads and textiles dyed from mugwort, Polygonum indigo, safflowers, Lithospermum erythrorhizon, and Sophora japonica flowers. This study is also meaningful in that it broadens the boundaries of design for natural-dyed fashion products. To that end, various designs were attempted by combining natural-dyed textiles or knits with leather, denim, and fur.

  • 교량의 건설에 있어서 내진설계가 주요문제로 부각되면서, LRB(Lead Rubber Soaring)가 한 방법으로 사용되고 있다. 특히, 설계변경 또는 내진보수.보강과 같이 제약 조건이 있는 상황에서 유용한 면진방법으로 적용된 사례를 찾아 볼 수 있다. 이와 같이 LRB의 사용이 증가함에도 불구하고, 그 특성을 엄밀히 검증할 수 있는 시험기준이 정립되어 있지 않다. 따라서, 실무에서 LRB를 사용하는 경우 많은 혼란이 발생하고 있으며, 구조물의 면진성능에 대한 신뢰성도 떨어뜨리고 있다. 본 연구에서는 실무에서 발생하는 혼란과 LRB의 성능에 대한 불확실성을 줄이기 위하여 특성시험 기준을 정립하였다. 특성시험 기준은 미국 HITEC의 면진장치 특성시험 기준과 일본의 시험 기준을 토대로 국내 시방서와 시공 및 설계환경에 적합한 기준을 제시하고자 한다. 특성시험절차는 LRB의 연직강성, 수평유효강성, 감쇠비, 내구성 등 총 8개 항목에 대하여 정리하였다. 이 절차에 따라, 본 연구에서 실험이 수행 될 것이며, 시험 결과를 분석.평가한 후 세부사항을 재검토하여 실무에서 유용하게 사용할 수 있는 기준을 제시하고자 한다.
