This study deals with the development of the extended Kalman filter(EKF) algorithm for the localization of underwater mining vehicles. Both simulation and experimental studies in a test bed are carried out. For the experiments, a scale dawn tracked vehicle is run in a soil bin containing cohesive soil of bentonite-water mixture. To develop the EKF algorithm, we use a kinematic model including the inner/outer track slips and the slip angle for the vehicle. The measurements include the inner and outer wheel speeds from encoders, the heading angle from a compass sensor and a fiber optic rate gyro, and x and y coordinate position values from a vision system. The vision sensor replaces the LBL(Long Base Line) sonar system used in the real underwater positioning situations. Artificial noise signals mimicking the real LBL noise signal are added to the vision sensor information. To know the mean slip values of the tracks in both straight and cornering maneuver, several trial running experiments are executed before applying the EKF algorithm. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the EKF algorithm in rejecting the sensor measurements noise. Also, the simulation and experimental results show close correlations.

Diatomite, bentonite and zeolite were used as porous materials for fabricating hygroscopic panels. Moisture adsorption and desorption of porous materials were investigated and hydrothermal method was applied to fabricate panels. Cheolwon diatomite and Pohang zeolite showed excellent characteristics of moisture adsorption and desorption. These characteristics were caused by higher surface area and pore volume of porous materials. Correlation coefficient between surface area and moisture adsorption content of porous materials was 0.93. Moisture adsorption contents were influenced by surface area and pore volume of panels, and surface area more effected on moisture adsorption. Correlation coefficient between surface area and moisture adsorption content of panels was 0.86. Moisture adsorption content of panel with 10% Pohang zeolite was $180\;g/m^2$ and that of 10% Cheolwon diatomite was $170\;g/m^2$. Moisture desorption content of panel with 10% Pohang zeolite was $105\;g/m^2$. Moisture adsorption contents of panel with porous materials were higher than that of panel without porous materials.

Formaldehyde emissions from the construct was harmful to human. Diatomite, bentonite and zeolite were used as porous materials for fabricating panels. Formaldehyde adsorption and physical characteristics of porous materials were investigated and hydrothermal method was applied to fabricate panels. Formaldehyde adsorption contents of panels with porous materials were higher than that of panel without porous materials. The panels with Cheolwon diatomite and Pohang zeolite showed excellent characteristics of Formaldehyde adsorption. These characteristics were caused by higher surface area and pore volume of porous materials. Formaldehyde adsorption contents were influenced by surface area and pore volume of panels. Correlation coefficient between surface area and Formaldehyde adsorption content of panels was 0.87. The panels with porous materials had higher strength than that without porous materials because of bridging role particles.

To select appropriate oxygen carrier candidates for chemical looping combustion, reduction characteristics of seven oxygen carriers were measured and discussed using three different reduction gases, such as $H_2$, CO, and $CH_4$. Moreover, attrition losses of those oxygen carriers also measured and compared. Among seven oxygen carrier particles, OCN703-1100 and NiO/bentonite particles showed higher oxygen transfer capacity than other particles, but these particles showed more attrition loss than other particles. C14 and C28 particles which used as cheap oxygen carriers in European country showed lower oxygen transfer capacity and less attrition loss. Based on the experimental results, we could select OCN717-R1SU, NC001, and N002 particles as candidates for future works because these oxygen carriers showed enough oxygen transfer capacity and good attrition resistance.

이규화몰리브덴 고온발열체의 제조공정을 개발하였다. 원료분말은 상용 MoSi$_{2}$분말이었으며 Bentonite, Si$_{3}$N$_{4}$, B, ThO$_{2}$를 각각 가소제와 첨가제로 사용하였다. 이들은 진공압출, 소결, 단자부 기계가공, U자형 성형, 용접 등의 과정을 거쳐 U자형 발열체로 제조되었다. 사용제품의 분석결과 최근 사용온도가 크게 증가된 것으로 알려진 190$0^{\circ}C$용 발열체는 다량(33wt%)의 W이 Mo을 치환하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 발열체의 전기비저항은 겉보기 밀도가 증가함에 따라 급격하게 감소하는 경향을 보였으며 첨가물들의 영향은 미미하였다. 1400-1$600^{\circ}C$에서 용접한 경우 용접면에서의 전기비저항은 비용접부보다 낮았으며 용접온도가 증사함에 따라 감소하였다. 발열시험결과 제조된 발열체는 표면온도가 1$700^{\circ}C$이하에서는 문제가 없었으며 175$0^{\circ}C$ 이상의 온도에서는 원형의 융기가 표면에 발생하면서 급속하게 파괴되었다. 이 융기는 X-선 회절분석결과 SiO로 밝혀졌으며 따라서 발열체의 파괴는 MoSi$_{2}$/SiO$_{2}$계면에서의 Si(in MoSi$_{2}$) + SiO$_{2}$=2SiO(g)반응에 으해 일어나는 것으로 판단된다.

Green compressive strength, permeability, deformation, flowability, compactability and green hardness values at room temperature are dependable on the grain distribution and grain shape. The results obtained under constant moisture (4% for sand) and bentonite (8% for sand) were as follows; 1. With decreasing grain size, surface area of sand grain was increased. 2. With decreasing grain size, coefficient of angularity was increased. 3. As surface area increased from $8926.43cm^2$ to $21211.16cm^2$ , green compressive strength was increased from $210.93\;g/cm^2$ to $449.98\;g/cm^2$, hardness was increased from 76.7 to 82.3, but permeability was decreased from $411.7\;{\frac{\;cc\;{\cdot}\;cm\;}{atm\;{\cdot}\;cm^2\;{\cdot}\;min.}}$ to $113.7\;{\frac{\;cc\;{\cdot}\;mm\;}{atm\;{\cdot}\;cm^2\;{\cdot}\;min.}}$ 4. As surface area increased from $8926.43\;cm^2$ to $21211.16\;cm^2$, flowability was decreased from 82.3% to 80.8%, deformation was decreased from $67.1\;cm\;{\times}\;10^{-3}$ to $54.6\;cm\;{\times}\;10^{-3}$, but compactability was increased from 44.8% to 54.3%. 5. Room temperature properties of molding sand were affected by variation of surface area.

The Dalsung copper-tungsten mine in the Taegu area, Korea was closed in 1975 and may be the sources of the heavy metal contamination in the tributary system and soil-plant system due to the mine drainage derived from the mine wastes and tailings. To examine the degree and extent of heavy metal contamination in the vicinity of Dalsung mine area, stream water and soil samples were taken and analyzed for heavy metals by ICP-AES and AAS. Highly contaminated soils are found near the Lower Tunnel No.0 ranging up to $1760{\mu}g/g$ As, $2060{\mu}g/g$ Cu, $1120{\mu}g/g$ Pb and 346 ${\mu}g/g$ Zn. From the results of the sequential extraction methods for the metal speciation, the heavy metals in soils may be derived from soil parent materials and acid mine drainage. With the processes for the heavy metal removal, most of the heavy metal ions in the acid mine drainage are removed by being exchanged with Ca ions held by the bentonite, hydroxyapatite and calcium hydoxide.

A lab-scale apparatus for turbid water transport control was tested and examined. The channel had a dimension of $100cm{\times}30cm{\times}15cm$ (length${\times}$hight${\times}$width). And the turbidity water was prepared using two types of particles, bentonite and loess. The channel equipped with filamentous mat was operated under various shock load conditions. In the control channel, instantly, turbid water mixed with the clean water inside the channel and turbidity prevails the entire channel. While in the mat-equipped channel, it increases only at the bottom. Overall, the filamentous mat gave capture efficiency of 70~90% compared with the control group. The capture efficiency of turbid particles decreased with increased input turbidity flux. The result of experimental run on how turbid particles are separated in the mat channel shows that settling, filtration and attachment are the main processes. Meanwhile, turbidity was diffused from the channel bottom due to turbidity gradient before and after mat zone. The particle size before mat zone was lightly coarser than that after mat zone.

MoSi$_2$heating elements were fabricated using MoSi$_2$, powder prepared by SHS. Their apparent density, electrical resistivity, bending strength and victors hardness were measured as a function of sintering temperature, time and the amount of ceramic additives. The additives were A1$_2$O$_3$, SiO$_2$and bentonite which were added as a plastisizer. The electrical resistivity of MoSi$_2$decreased with the increase in the apparent density as expected. It decreased when the additives were added and the increase was the largest for the case of SiO$_2$. The bending strength and hardness decreased when the grain size becomes larger which is opposite to the expectation from the Hall-Petch type relation. Instead, they showed inverse proportionality with the volume fraction of pores probably in an exponential manner. The strength and hardness also decreased with the additives.

The soil samples used in this study were prepared with the residual granite soils passed through the #4 sieve and obtained from Pocheon in Gyeonggi-Ki do. Specifically, five types of samples were prepared. Sample A which is a natural state soil was classified as SM according to the uses. Samples of B, C, D, and E were prepared by mixing Sample A with bentonite and were classified as SC according to the uses. The plasticity indexes of samples B, C, D, and E were 15, 25, 30, and 40, respectively. The specimens, whose dimensions are 100mm by 127.5mm, were prepared by A method of ASTM D 698 with the Proctor mold. In experiments, the loading with the 1%/min was applied. Four different disk diameters, 13mm, 26mm, 38mm, and 52mm were used in the Improved Unconfined Penetration (IUP) tests. To compare the tensile strengths, the split tensile tests were also conducted on the same specimens used for the IUP tests. To find out the effects of moisture contents, plasticity Index of specimens on the tensile strength, six different water contents were used for making a specimen.
