Korean Lunar Explorer is planned to be launched in the 2020s according to national space development strategy. The Lunar Explorer will be developed as two unmanned light weight models: a lunar orbiter and a lunar lander. The Lunar Explorer's structure should be designed to have light weight due to constraints from launcher as well as to provide structural safety against launch load, in-orbit condition and landing condition and to serve accommodation space for mission equipment. Core technology related to structural development of lunar explorer should be developed in advance. Especially, for lunar lander, technology for developing landing gear which enables lander to land safely on lunar surface is required essentially. This paper deals with structural development of lunar lander ground test model including design, manufacturing and test.

Objective: This was a correlation study for predicting the power to improve the distance of golf players and developing an effective power program. Design: Cross-sectional study. Methods: The subjects of this study were 24 healthy males and females in their 20s and 30s who were golf athletes living in Seoul and Gyeonggi-do. In the Titleist Performance Institute (TPI) Level 1 test, the twelve swing characteristics include components of stability, mobility, body conditioning ability, and balance. The power test consisted of a vertical jump (VJ) in order to examine the power of the lower body, the seated chest pass (SCP) was used to examine upper body power, and the sit up and throw (SUAT) was used to examine the power of the upper body and core for the TPI Level 2 test. Results: The results of this study showed that the 90/90 was correlated with VJ, SUAT, and SCP scores (p<0.05). Single leg stance was correlated with VJ, SUAT, over head deep squat, and bridge with leg extension were correlated with VJ (p<0.05). The toe touch was correlated with SUAT results (p<0.05). Conclusions: The results of this study showed that the TPI Level 1 test and power test were correlated with the performance of the golf players. Future studies have shown that fitness program development and further research are needed.

Since the bridge is the main facility of the road that is the core of the civil infrastructure, the bridge is constructed to ensure stability and serviceability during the traffic use. In order to secure the safety of bridges, evaluating the integrity of bridges at present is an important task in the maintenance work of bridges. In general, to evaluate the load carrying capacity of bridges, it is possible to confirm the superimposed behavior and symmetric behavior of bridges by estimating the lateral load distribution factor of the bridges through vehicle loading tests. However, in order to measure the lateral load distribution factor of a commonly used bridge, a static loading test is performed. There is a difficulty in traffic control. Therefore, in this study, the static displacement component of the bridge measured in the dynamic loading test and the ambient vibration test was extracted by using empirical mode decomposition technique. The lateral load distribution was estimated using the extracted static displacement component and compared with the lateral load distribution factor measured in the static loading test.

The result of design and Partial fabrication of a 1 MVA single phase high temperature superconducting(HTS) transformer for power distributions are presented in this paper. The HTS windings are wound as double pancake windings which have advantages of uniform distribution of high voltage over the windings. the rated primary and secondary voltages are 22.9 kV and 6.6 kV respectively. Four HTS tapes are wound in parallel for secondary windings considering the rated currents of the transformer. The HTS windings will be cooled down to 65 K by natural convection of sub-cooled liquid nitrogen using a single-staged GM-cryocooler in order to make the stability of the HTS windings better. The iron core is designed as shell type and isolated from the liquid nitrogen by an FRP cryostat which have a room temperature bore. After the complete fabrication of the total HTS transformer system, performance test of the transformer will be carried out.

To manufacture the MLCC with X7R for high voltage stability, $BaTiO_3-MgO-MnO_2-Y_2O_3$ with $(Ba_{0.4}Ca_{0.6})SiO_3$ glass frit was formulated. Based on this composition, the addition of $Er_2O_3$ showed that TCC(Temperature Coefficient Capacitance) at $85^{\circ}C$ was improved from 5 % to ${\sim}0\;%$, but the dielectric constant and IR (Insulation Resistance) were decreased. The glass frit improved the dielectric constant and IR, so the appropriate contents of $Er_2O_3$ and glass frit were 0.6 mol% and 1 wt%, respectively. It showed that the dielectric constant and RC constant were 2,550 and 2,000 (${\Omega}F$), respectively in the sintering condition at $1250^{\circ}C$ in PO2 $10^{-7}$ Mpa. The MLCC with $3.2{\times}1.6$ (mm) size and $1\;{\mu}F$ was also suited for X7R with the above composition.

Behaviors of wake vortices generated by an aircraft affect the performance and flight stability of flying aircraft in formation flight. In the present study, the trajectories of the wake vortices behind airplanes in close formation flight were computed using a Fourier spectral method. The behavior of wake vortices showed complex patterns depending on the initial circulation and the relative positions between the vortices. In the initial stage, the wake vortex movement was affected by the nascent vortex. When the vortex becomes closer to the other vortex, then a new trajectory is formed. When the viscous effect becomes dominant, the core radius increases. Thus, a new vortex moving near the existing vortex can have strong interaction with each other, resulting in the complicated behavior of wake vortices. In the future, the ground effect on the behavior of the wake vortices during take-off and landing will be studied.

According to the investigation of waste $CO_2$ molding sand in the 15 steel foundries in Busan and Gyeong area, about 1 ton of waste $CO_2$ molding sand per ton of steel castings production was produced In order to reduce amount of $Na_2O$, Loss of Boiling (L.O.B), Loss of Ignition (L.O.I), Conductivity and PH which are present in the waste $CO_2$ molding sand below the reclamation effect, more than 50% of elimination for reclamation was required. It was found that the waste $CO_2$ molding sand does not contain a harmful component designated by industrial waste materials. Reclamation of the waste $CO_2$ molding sand was practically achieved by an abrasive-dry reclamation process. According to bench time of the sodium silicate-bonded $CO_2$ molding sand, reduction of compressive strength and surface stability index(S.S.I) become slowdown. Therefore, the reclaimed sand could be allowed the reuse of molding sand in $CO_2$ molding process including core sand.

Superconducting fault current(SFCLs) are expected to improve not only reliability but also stability of real power systems. The analysis on the single line-to-ground fault current of the integrated three phase flux-lock type SFCL, which consists of three flux-lock reactor wound on an iron core in each single phase and three YBCO thin films, was investigated in current limiting operating characteristics. We compared additive polarity winding with the subtractive one in the flux lock reactor. Its turns ratio each phase between the primary and the secondary coils is 63:42. When a single line-to-ground fault occurred in any phase, the peak value of line current in the fault phase of the additive polarity winding increased up to 31.44[A] during first-half cycle. On the other hand, the peak value in the subtractive polarity winding increased up to 81.77[A] under the same conditions. This is because the current flow between the primary and the secondary windings becomes to be additive or subtractive in each winding direction. We confirmed that the current limiting behavior in the additive polarity winding was more effective for a single-line-to ground fault.

An electrophoretic display using $TiO_2$ particles is the most promising candidate because it offers various advantages such as ink-on-paper appearance, good contrast ratio, wide viewing angle, image stability in the off-state and extremely low power consumption. The core technology of electrophoretic display is the dispersion controlling of $TiO_2$ nano particles in nonaqueous solution. To prepare an ink for electronic paper using electrophoretic properties of $TiO_2$ nano particles, cyclohexane with low dielectric constant and transparency, polyethylene for producing polymer coating layer which reduces apparent gravity of $TiO_2$, and $TiO_2$ powders were mixed together by planetary-mill. The zeta-potential value of $TiO_2$ particles in cyclohexane was measured about -40mV, but was measured over -110mV by dispersant attached to polyethylene-coated $TiO_2$ surface. Prepared electronic ink was filled in cross patterned micro-wall with $200{\mu}m$ in width and $40{\mu}m$ in height on ITO glass designed by photolithography. The response time of electronic paper evaluated by mobility of $TiO_2$ particle between micro-walls was measured 0.067sec, but the drift velocity from reflectance wave form during reverse from of electronic ink was measured 0.07cm/sec.
