The chemistry factor and RTPTS margin for domestic reactor pressure vessel materials were analyzed by using the surveillance data which have been obtained from 8 nuclear power plants in Korea. The surveillance data have been used to assess the integrity of the pressure vessel under the pressurized thermal shock (PTS) event. The chemistry factor, which is determined by the Cu and Ni contents of vessel materials, is considered a proper tool to assess the $RT_{PTS}$. The chemistry factors, which were obtained from the surveillance data of domestic reactor pressure vessels, were investigated and compared with those of Regulatory Guide 1.99 in this study. Regressions for ${\Delta}RT_{NDT}$ were performed to expect the chemistry factor as a function of Cu and Ni, and to estimate $RT_{PTS}$ margin. The margin analysis was performed by comparing the regression graphs and standard deviations with those of Regulatory Guide 1.99. The standard deviations calculated by using the domestic surveillance data for base metal and welds are almost same as the standard deviations which are suggested on Regulatory Guide 1.99, Rev.2.

International Maritime Organisation (IMO) regulations insist on reduced emission of CO₂, noxious and other environmentally dangerous gases from ship, which are usually let out while burning fossil fuel for running its propulsive machinery. Contrallability of ship during sailing has a direct implication on its course keeping and changing ability, and tries to have an optimised routing. Bad coursekeeping ability of a ship may lead to frequent use of rudder and resulting changes in the ship's drift angle. Consequently, it increases vessels resistance and also may lead to longer path for its journey due to zigzag movements. These adverse effects on the ship journey obviously lead to the increase in fuel consumption and higher emission. Hence, IMO has made it mandatory to evaluate the manoeuvring qualities of a ship at the designed stage itself. In this paper a numerical horizontal planar motion mechanism is simulated in CFD environment and from the force history, the hydrodynamic derivatives appearing in the manoeuvring equation of motion of a ship are estimated. These derivatives along with propeller thrust and rudder effects are used to simulate different standard manoeuvres of the vessel and check its parameters against the IMO requirements. The present study also simulates these manoeuvres by using numerical free running model for the same ship. The results obtained from both these studies are presented and discussed here.

휘발유는 온도 및 햇빛 노출 등의 저장환경에 따라 산화에 의해 유기산 및 중축합 고분자 물질(검질)이 생성되어 금속재료의 부식과 고무수지 등의 열화 및 연료공급 시스템의 축적물로 남아 차량 문제를 유발시킬 수 있다. 최근에 LPG와 휘발유 겸용 차량에서 장기간 사용하지 않은 휘발유가 차량문제를 유발하거나, 옥탄가가 비이상적으로 낮은 연료들이 출현하고 있지만 명확한 원인규명이 되지 않은 상황이다. 이에, 휘발유의 산화에 대한 명확한 규명을 통해 저장환경, 품질변화 추정 등 관리방안을 제시하고자 하였다. 휘발유의 산화특성 규명을 위해 현재 유통되고 있는 자동차용 휘발유와 향후 보급가능 바이오에탄올 혼합연료(바이오에탄올 10%)에 대해 저장용기(차량 연료탱크, 폴리에틸렌(PE) 재질 및 철재 용기) 별, 저장환경(햇빛 노출(옥상), 햇빛 비노출(창고)), 대기 중 공기노출 등에 대한 산화열화 영향을 산화가 일어나기 쉬운 여름철(6월~10월)에 18주간 저장평가하여 실제 품질기준 항목에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 폴리에틸렌(PE) 재질 용기의 경우 마개 틈 또는 표면으로의 고옥탄가 저비점 성분의 증발로 옥탄가의 품질기준이 벗어나는 경우가 있었다. 특히 햇빛 노출의 상태에서는 휘발유 산화와 저비점 성분의 증발로 옥탄가 및 증기압이 급격히 감소하였고, 검(gum)질도 과량 생성되었다. 바이오에탄올 혼합연료도 유사한 결과를 나타내었다.

Objective: To assess the expression of vascular normalization genes in different molecular subtypes of breast cancer and to determine whether molecular subtypes with a higher vascular normalization gene expression can be identified using dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI). Materials and Methods: This prospective study evaluated 306 female (mean age ± standard deviation, 50 ± 10 years), recruited between January 2014 and August 2017, who had de novo breast cancer larger than 1 cm in diameter (308 tumors). DCE MRI followed by IVIM DWI studies using 11 different b-values (0 to 1200 s/mm²) were performed on a 1.5T MRI system. The Tofts model and segmented biexponential IVIM analysis were used. For each tumor, the molecular subtype (according to six [I-VI] subtypes and PAM50 subtypes), expression profile of genes for vascular normalization, pericytes, and normal vascular signatures were determined using freshly frozen tissue. Statistical associations between imaging parameters and molecular subtypes were examined using logistic regression or linear regression with a significance level of p = 0.05. Results: Breast cancer subtypes III and VI and PAM50 subtypes luminal A and normal-like exhibited a higher expression of genes for vascular normalization, pericyte markers, and normal vessel function signature (p < 0.001 for all) compared to other subtypes. Subtypes III and VI and PAM50 subtypes luminal A and normal-like, versus the remaining subtypes, showed significant associations with K^trans, k_ep, v_p, and IAUGC_BN90 on DEC MRI, with relatively smaller values in the former. The subtype grouping was significantly associated with D, with relatively less restricted diffusion in subtypes III and VI and PAM50 subtypes luminal A and normal-like. Conclusion: DCE MRI and IVIM parameters may identify molecular subtypes of breast cancers with a different vascular normalization gene expression.

The present study is concerned with the flow patterns induced by other impellers in a rectangular tank Impellers are FBT(Flat blade turbine), PBT(Pitched blade turbine), Shroud turbine, Rushton Turbine, and Helical ribbon turbine. The solution of flows in moving reference frames requires the use of 'moving' cell zone. The moving zone approaches are MRF(Multiple reference frame), which is a steady-state approximation and Sliding method, which is a unsteady-state approximation. Numerical results using two moving zone approaches are compared with experiments by Ranade & Joshi, which have done extensive LDA measurements of the flow generated by a standard six-bladed Rushton turbine in a cylindrical baffled vessel. In this paper we simulated the flow patterns with above mentioned moving zone approaches and impellers. Turbulence model is RNG k-$\epsilon$ model.

선박은 전통적으로 국제법상 기국주의 원칙이 적용되어 기국정부가 선박의 통제 및 관할권을 행사하여 왔으나 국제적으로 기준미달선이 자주 출현하여 부당한 해운서비스를 제공하고 특히, 외국연안에서 해양오염사고를 일으킴에 따라 항만국들이 자국의 이익보호를 위해 외국적의 기준미달선에 대한 통제를 강화하고 있다. 따라서 항만국통제제도는 기국에 대해서는 책임의 문제이고 항만국으로서는 권한이라고도 할 수 있는데 보다 더 큰 의미로 한다면 기준미달선을 제거함으로써 해상안전과 해양오염방지를 보장하려는 항만국과 기국의 협력체제라고 할 수 있다. 그런데 해상안전과 해양환경보호를 위하여 기항지국에 의한 항만국통제 행위가 아무리 정당한 행위라 할지라도 국제규칙을 잘못 적용하거나 항만만국통제관의 권한을 일탈한 통제행위를 한 경우 국제적 분쟁을 야기시킬 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 항만국통제의 법적근거를 국제협약과 국내해사법에서 알아보고, 이를 기초로 항만국통제관이 통제제도를 국내적으로 실시함에 있어서 제기될 수 있는 국제법과 국내법과의 충돌문제를 다룬다.

Generally hull insurance is undertaken by mean of a contract of hull insurance. A contract of hul1 insurance here is a contract whereby the insurer undertakes to indemnify the assured against the loss and damage to the vessel mused by maritime perils. A contract of hull insurance is consists of printed main insurance clauses and a clause includes many sub-clauses. Now the Institute Time Clauses-Hulls (hereunder refer to as "English hull insurance clauses"made by the Institute of London Underwriters is much used as the standard from or basic from by many countries ail over the world Now Korean insurance companies hue not made our their own hull insurance clauses, they have just adopted the made-out English hull insurance clauses and the english law and practice to solve the problem related to marine insurance. On the other hand, the United States of America and Japan have made out their own hull insurance clauses based on English hull insurance clauses and used the clauses for many years. Now American is using American Institute Hull Clauses(hereunder refer to as "American hul1 insurance clauses"as its own clauses which was made out by American Institute of Marine Underwriters in 1977 and Japan is also wing its own clauses named Japanese Hull Standard Clauses(hereunder refer to as "Japanese hull clauses") which was made out by japanese Hull Insurance Association in 1990. Therefore the purpose of this study is not only to make a comparative study on English hull insurance clauses 1995, American hull insurance clauses 1977 and Japanese hull clauses l990, but also to supply on some legal materials necessary for Korea to establish and perform our own hull insurance clauses.

The present study is concerned with the flow patterns induced by various impellers in a rectangular tank. Impellers are FBT (Flat blade turbine), PBT (Pitched blade turbine), Shroud turbine, Rushton turbine, and Helical ribbon turbine types. The solutions of flows in moving reference frames require the use of 'moving' cell zone. The moving zone approaches are based on MRF (Multiple reference frame), which is a steady-state approximation and sliding method, which is an unsteady-state approximation. Numerical results using two moving zone approaches we compared with experiments by Ranade & Joshi, which have done extensive LDA measurements of the flow generated by a standard six-bladed Rushton turbine in a cylindrical baffled vessel. In this paper, we simulated the flow patterns with above-mentioned moving zone approaches and impellers. Turbulence model used is RNG $k-{\epsilon}$ model. Sliding-mesh method is more effective than MRF for simulating the rectangular tank with inlet and outlet. RNG $k-{\epsilon}$ model strongly underestimates the velocity of experimental data and velocity by Chen & Kim's model, but it seems to be correctly predicted in overall distribution.
