To implement the insects' flapping flight for developing flapping MAVs(micro air vehicles), the unsteady flow characteristics of the insects' forward flight is investigated. In this paper, two-dimensional FSI(Fluid-Structure Interaction) simulations are conducted to examine realistic flow features of insects' flapping flight and to examine the flexibility effects of the insect's wing. The unsteady incompressible Navier-Stokes equations with an artificial compressibility method are implemented as the fluid module while the dynamic finite element equations using a direct integration method are employed as the solid module. In order to exchange physical information to each module, the common refinement method is employed as the data transfer method. Also, a simple and efficient dynamic grid deformation technique based on Delaunay graph mapping is used to deform computational grids. Compared to the earlier researches of two-dimensional rigid wing simulations, key physical phenomena and flow patterns such as vortex pairing and vortex staying can still be observed. For example, lift is mainly generated during downstroke motion by high effective angle of attack caused by translation and lagging motion. A large amount of thrust is generated abruptly at the end of upstroke motion. However, the quantitative aspect of flow field is somewhat different. A flexible wing generates more thrust but less lift than a rigid wing. This is because the net force acting on wing surface is split into two directions due to structural flexibility. As a consequence, thrust and propulsive efficiency was enhanced considerably compared to a rigid wing. From these numerical simulations, it is seen that the wing flexibility yields a significant impact on aerodynamic characteristics.

The latest aerospace technology is important for the stable flight of a launch vehicle, but weather conditions on the day of launch are also one of the essential factors for successful launch campaign. If a launch vehicle is directly struck while preparing to take off from the launch pad on the day of launch or the electronic device are damaged by induced current during flight of the launch vehicle, this means launch failure and can lead to enormous national loss. Therefore, for a successful launch campaign, it is necessary to analyze the lightning detection characteristics of the Naro Space Center. In this study, the seasonal factors of the lightning that occurred over the Naro Space Center from 2003 to 2017, the influence of the polarity, and the correlation with the lightning intensity was confirmed. As a result, there was a high probability of intensive occurrence of multiple lightning strikes in summer, and a high proportion of positive (+) lightning strikes in winter. Lastly, in the distribution of the number of lightning strikes, an average of 2.0 to 2.5 negative (-) lightning strikes occurs in the coastal regions of the South and West Seas when one flash happens.

The missile for this study has shown different natural frequency characteristics depending on the test conditions; natural frequencies obtained from its flight test are higher than those in its ground test. It was found that the hinged joints connecting front airframe to rear one had the nonlinear stiffness and caused the missile to show very complex dynamic characteristics. The angular stiffness at hinged joints was calculated using 3D finite element analysis, and it was verified that there was a highly nonlinear relationship between angular stiffness and external load. Natural frequencies calculated considering the nonlinearity of angular stiffness were nearly the same as test results. Through this study, the dynamic characteristics of a missile having split airframes with hinged joints could be clearly identified and a way of maintaining its natural frequencies consistent was generated.

Flight bodies are subject to highly unstable and severe flow conditions during taking-off and landing periods. In this situation, the flight bodies essentially experience accelerating or decelerating flows, and the aerodynamic characteristics can be completely different from those of steady flows. In the present study, unsteady aerodynamic characteristics of an aerofoil accelerating at subsonic speeds are investigated using a computational method. Two-dimensional, unsteady, compressible Navier-Stokes simulations are conducted with a one-equation turbulence model, Spalart-Allmaras, and a fully implicit finite volume scheme. An acceleration factor is defined to specify the unsteady aerodynamics of the aerofoil. The results show that the acceleration of the subsonic aerofoil generally leads to a variation in aerodynamic characteristics and it is more significant at angles of attack.

초음속 비행으로 인해 발생하는 소닉붐을 해석하여 소닉붐의 소음 강도와 대기 전파 특성에 예측할 수 있는 기법을 개발하였다. 소닉붐은 환경 문제를 유발하므로 지상에서 계측되는 소음 강도가 매우 중요한데 본 연구에서는 개략 분석 기법을 이용하여 비행체의 물리량과 비행 정보로부터 계측지 거리에 따른 음압을 산출하였다. 소닉붐의 지상 계측을 위해 비행체에서 발산되는 충격파의 대기 전파 특성을 예측해야하며 이를 위해 시선벡터법과 음선추적기법을 이용하였고, 대기 밀도의 고도별 분포에 따른 굴절을 고려하였다. 개발된 기법을 이용하여 실제 초음속 비행체의 소닉붐을 예측하였고 측정결과와 잘 일치하였다.

레이돔은 레이더를 외부 환경으로부터 보호하는 역할을 하며, 스텔스 기술의 일환으로 주파수 선택 표면이 레이돔에 적용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 Jerusalem-cross(JSC) 형상이 적용된 주파수 선택 표면 레이돔에 대해 비행 시나리오 상 공력가열로 인해 미사일의 FSS 레이돔의 전파 투과 특성의 변화를 다루었다. 이 내용을 바탕으로 공력가열에 따른 전파 투과 특성을 레이돔의 위치에 따라, 시간에 따라 수치 해석적으로 분석하였다. 수치 해석적 연구로 상용 프로그램 ANSYS Fluent 15.0과 COMSOL Multiphysics 5.2를 사용하였다. 비행 시나리오 상 전파 투과 특성의 변화로 초기 대역폭에 대한 평균 투과율 수치가 최대 -14.3 dB까지 변화하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

Background: Asian ginseng and American ginseng are functional foods that share a close genetic relationship and are well-known worldwide. This article aims to investigate the correlation between morphological characteristics and the inherent quality of Asian and American ginsengs. Methods: In this study, an ultra-HPLC-quadrupole/time-of-flight MS (UHPLC-Q/TOF-MS) method was established for the quantitative analysis of 45 ginseng samples. The method developed for determination was precise and accurate. Results: The results showed that Asian ginseng samples with the same growing time (with the same or similar number of stem scars) that had a thinner main root, a longer rhizome and more branch roots contained greater amounts of ginsenosides. For American ginseng, two tendencies were observed in the relationship between the diameter of the main root and contents of ginsenosides. One tendency was that samples with thinner main roots tended to contain higher levels of ginsenosides, which was observed in the samples sold under the commercial name pao-shen. Another tendency was that samples with thicker main roots contained higher contents of ginsenosides, which was observed in the samples sold under the commercial name pao-mian, as well as in samples of American ginseng cultivated in Jilin, China. Conclusion: An approach using ultra-HPLC-quadrupole/time-of-flight MS was successfully established to link morphology and active components for evaluating the quality of Asian and American ginsengs. Clear correlation between visible morphological features and quality of Asian and American ginsengs was found. People can see the difference; this means consumers and vendors can evaluate ginseng by themselves.

Since the success of the first flight, vast advancements have been made to the aircrafts with recent developments incorporating highly complex mechanisms, placing greater emphasis on the competence of the pilot. Studies are currently being undertaken to effectively source the trainee pilots with the most ideal level of aptitude for aviation with an aim to optimise the selection process with focus on economy and time, while research into identifying the optimal human characteristics for aviation is being done. As part of the selection process, number of tests is arranged with focus on the individual competence, suitability for flight, health status, aptitude and intelligence with the results of the tests used as reference materials during the selection procedure. This study has investigated the effect the academic competence has on the aptitude for aviation amongst many other abilities of human beings and the findings show that higher levels of aptitude have been demonstrated by the students who have displayed academic excellence across all the courses with statistics pointing to a positive correlation between the two subjects. This supports the theory that students who are academically superior have higher probability of being found to possess greater level of flight aptitude. The outcome of the study iterates the fact that academic competence of the students should not be regarded lightly in the selection process. Based on the current study, it is believed that a research into determining the relationship between the SAT results, average yearly grade and flight aptitude will help identify the key factors in possessing high level of flight aptitude with greater certainty.
