Water issue, especially water pollution, is a serious issue of 21st century. Being an significant technique for securing water resources, superconducting magnetic separation wastewater system was indispensable. A large bore conduction-cooled magnet was custom-tailored for wastewater treatment. The superconducting magnet has been designed, fabricated and tested. The superconducting magnet was composed of NbTi solenoid coils with an effective horizontal warm bore of 400 mm and a maximum central field of 2.56T. The superconducting magnet system was cooled by a two-stage 1.5W 4K GM cryocooler. The NbTi solenoid coils were wound around an aluminum former that is thermally connected to the second stage cold head of the cryocooler through a conductive copper link. The temperature distribution along the conductive link was measured during the cool-down process as well as at steady state. The magnet was cooled down to 4.8K in approximately 65 hours. The test of the magnetic field and quench analysis has been performed to verify the safe operation for the magnet system. Experimental results show that the superconducting magnet reached the designed magnetic performance.

Hands-on education and training is a key part of fixing and developing technology knowledge and is an inherent part of many engineering and scientific curricula. However, access to large complex training facilities, such as nuclear reactor, could be limited by various factors, such as unavailability of those facilities in the region, high traveling costs or harmonization of the schedules of hands-on E&T with theoretical lectures and with the operational schedule of the facility. To handle the issue, several success stories have been reached with the introduction of the Internet Reactor Labs (IRL). The Internet Reactor Labs can strongly contribute to accessibility of training at research reactors and can contribute to improvements in their utilization. The paper describes the development of the Internet Reactor Lab at the VR-1 reactor of the Czech Technical University in Prague. Contrary to single-purpose IRLs, it presents various modalities of online teaching and training in experimental reactor physics and reactor operation in general as well as outreach activities that have been developed in recent years.

In rough seas, water breaker of the sea-going ships is subject to high impact loads due to the green water and some ships' water breaker suffers structure damage. So, a substantial research on the structural response caused by green water impact is required. In this paper, the green water flow on bow deck is simulated by FDM(finite differential method). Using the results of green water simulation, impact loads on water breaker are calculated. Calculation results of the 6200TEU container ship's structural response to this green water impact pressure are shown and discussed for two condiered calculation conditions.

최근 반도체 개발 및 제조부문에서는 급속도로 성장한 Mobile 시장과 Digital Consumer Trend 에 주도적으로 대응하고자 빠른 속도의 기술적 변화를 추진하여 왔으며, 이에 따라 현장에서 발생하는 기술적 문제의 유형 또한 점점 복잡 다양해지고 있다. 기존 Commodity 제품의 경우, 세대 전환이 느리게 진행되어, 이에 수반되는 기술적 문제의 난이도와 그 발생 종류가 현재 대비 상대적으로 단순하였다. 그러나 최근 다품종 주문형 제품비중 확대로, 발생되는 문제점들이 Field Application 과 tight 한 연관성을 지니고 있어, 문제의 발생 경로, 원인 파악과 해결 대책 수립에 상당한 초기대응 시간을 필요하며, 관련 부서와의 실시간 협업 및 Cross-Checking을 통하지 않고서는 문제에 대한 최적 Solution 을 결정하기 힘든 현실이 되었다. 이러한 기술 이슈 해결 과정에 기 발생했던 유사 이슈 처리 과정 및 결과 자료가 문제 해결에 크게 기여할 수 있으나, 종래의 지식관리 시스템 체계로는 이러한 실무 형 지식을 획득하기 어려운 부분이 한계점으로 지적되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점 개선이 가능한 실무형 지식 관리 (AKM: Actual Knowledge Management) 기반의 기술적 이슈 추적 관리 시스템(TITS: Technical Issue Tracking System) 구축 사례를 제시하고자 한다. TITS 는 1) 기술 이슈의 발의 및 전파 기능과 2) 이슈 해결을 위한 Action Item 부여 및 의견 교환 기능 3) 해결된 이슈의 처리 결과 등록 기능 4) 유사 이슈 사례 검색 기능 등의 크게 4 개 모듈오 구성 되어있다. 이 시스템을 통해 반도체 엔지니어들은 기술적 이슈의 발생 시점부터, 원안분석, 대책 협의 ; Action Item 수립 등 문제 해결 과정과 결과 등록 시점까지 Real time Tracking이 가능해 졌으며, 본 시스템을 통해 처리된 모든 기술적 이슈 정보는 Issue Case Database 에 분류 저장되어, 향후 유사 이슈 발생 시, 이를 활용함으로써, 빠른 초기 대응 및 문제 해결에 직접적인 도움을 받을 수 있게 되었다.

The development of structural solutions for high-speed or very high-speed tracks that minimize total life cycle costs of the system is a key issue to improve the operational profitability of new investments. In opposition to conventional ballasted tracks, slab track solutions can be a cost-effective solution, but only in the cases where the benefits due to the increase in track availability and the reduction of track maintenance offsets its much higher construction costs. In the cases where such investment is not feasible, it is worth to evaluate possible structural improvements to ballasted track that allow reducing its maintenance needs without increasing too much its construction costs. This paper evaluates the design requirements and the impact of improving conventional high-speed ballasted tracks by using a bituminous subballast layer. It is divided into two main parts: first the design requirements of the structural solutions with bituminous subballast and its possible benefits on high-speed track deterioration, and secondly the evaluation of the economic impact, in terms of construction costs, of using this structural solution material in future Spanish high-speed lines.
