The 14 MeV neutron generator facility is being developed by the Institute for Plasma Research India to conduct the lab scale experiments related to Indian breeding blanket system for ITER and DEMO. It will also be utilized for material testing, shielding experiments and development of fusion diagnostics. Occupational radiation exposure control is necessary for the all kind of nuclear facilities to get the operational licensing from governing authorities and nuclear regulatory bodies. In the same way, the radiation exposure for the 14 MeV neutron generator facility at the occupational worker area and accessible zones for general workers should be under the permissible limit of AERB India. The generator is designed for the yield of 10¹² n/s. The shielding assessment has been made to estimate the radiation dose during the operational time of the neutron generator. The facility has many utilities and constraints like ventilation ducts, accessible doors, accessibility of neutron generator components and to conduct the experiments which make the shielding assessment challenging to provide proper safety for occupational workers and the general public. The neutron and gamma dose rates have been estimated using the MCNP radiation transport code and ENDF -VII nuclear data libraries. The ICRP-74 fluence to dose conversion coefficients has been used for the assessment. The annual radiation exposure has been assessed by considering 500 h per year operational time. The provision of local shield near to neutron generator has been also evaluated to reduce the annual radiation doses. The comprehensive results of radiation shielding capability of neutron generator building and local shield design have been presented in the paper along with detailed maps of radiation field.

Science technique development expanded into, not only land, sea, and air operations but also those of airspace, and cyber battle spaces. It is generally accepted at this time that space centric operations currently cannot be effectively divided from air operations. However, science and technology advancements make it possible to integrate Army, Navy, Airforce, and Marine forces into effective operations as never before. The Republic of Korea Armed Forces needs to establish a more effective joint concept. The US military, considered by many experts as the most effective in the world, understands the necessity of joint operations and accordingly has highly developed its own concept of joint operations. The US joint operational concepts demonstrated their effectiveness during the Iraqi War by dominating the battlefield through effective use of all combat and non-combat power. Following the US Iraqi War experience, the US Department of Defense continued to enhance Joint Capability through the acceleration of US Military Transformation involving all components. The future national security of the Republic of Korea, faced with the peculiarity of communist threat in the form of North Korea, and the conflicting interest of four strong powers; the United States, China, Japan, and Russia, depends on small but strong armed forces employing all available combat power through effective National and Military Strategy, and considering domestic and international constraints. In order to succeed in future wars, military operations following joint operational concepts must effectively employ all available combat power in a timely manner. The Republic of Korea Armed Forces must establish a joint forces concept in order to integrate all available combat power during employment. Therefore we must establish military operations that develop the military structure and organization, doctrine, weapon systems, training and education of our armed forces based on the key concept of joint operations.

전기차 카셰어링은 친환경차량인 전기차를 여러 사용자들이 함께 이용함으로써 교통부문의 온실가스 발생량을 감소시키고, 동시에 자가용 증가로 인한 공간 및 환경문제를 해결할 수 있는 방안으로 주목받고 있다. 그러나 아직 도입단계에 불과하기 때문에 전기차 카셰어링 시스템의 효율성이나 사업가능성에 대한 연구나 분석이 필요한 실정이다. 이러한 배경하에 본 연구에서는 전기차 카셰어링 시스템의 운영상태와 결과를 분석이 가능한 모형을 개발하였으며, 현재 실시되고 있는 시범사업 내용을 반영하여 시뮬레이션을 실시하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과 전기차 카셰어링 시스템 운영과 관련된 변수들 사이의 관계와 운영효율을 최대화 할 수 있는 최적용량 등을 분석하였다. 시뮬레이션 분석에서는 차량대수와 충전기수가 증가할수록 서비스 제공율은 계속 증가하다가 일정수준에 도달하면 증가폭과 그 효율이 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 카셰어링 시스템 운영에 따른 수익과 비용을 분석하여 연간 운영 이익을 최대화 할 수 있는 최적 차량대수 및 최적 충전기 수를 도출하였다.

In this note, we introduce the Fire Sequencing Problem, which arises in military operations. Given m weapons, n fixed targets nad required duration of firing of the weapons on the targets, we want to determine the start time of firing on each target so that makespan is miniized while satisfying various operational constraints. We show that the decision problem of the Fire Sequencing problem is strongly NP-complete and remains strongly NP-complete even if the number of weapons is two. We also briefly discuss the results with respect to the complexities of several well-known scheduling models.

The traveling purchaser problem(TPP) is a generalization of the well-known traveling salesman problem(TSP), which has many real-world applications such as purchasing the required raw materials for the manufacturing factories and the scheduling of a set of jobs over some machines, and many others. TPP also could be extended to the vehicle routing problem(VRP) by incorporating additional constraints such as multi-purchaser, capacity, distance and time restrictions. In the last decade, TPP has received some attention of the researchers in the operational research area. However it has not received the equivalent interest as much as TSP and VRP. Therefore, there does not exist a review of the TPP. The purpose of this paper is to review the TPP and to describe solution procedures proposed for this problem. We also introduce the ILP formulation for the multiple TPP(mTPP) which is generalized type of TPP. We compare the system performance according to change from TPP to mTPP.

The k-out-of-n system with mixed redundancy is defined as k-out-of-n system which both includes warm-standby and cold-standby components. In case that operating components in the system fail and the system needs quick transition of standby components to operation state, the k-out-of-n system with mixed redundancy is useful for decreasing system failure rate and operational cost. Reliability-Redundancy Optimization Problem (RROP) involves selection of components with multiple choices and redundancy levels for maximizing system reliability with constraints such as cost, weight, etc. A solution methodology by using harmony search algorithm for RROP of the k-out-of-n system with mixed redundancy to maximize system reliability was suggested in this study.

An operational strategy for inventory control on finished goods in the distribution system has been given attention to many enterprises and many studies regarding this field have been done and is also on-going currently. Many of these studies represented a large scale distribution network with a unified formulation by using defined symbols. These methods have provided the systematic approach of the distribution network but they are impossible to applying the reality system due to not considering the service rate of demand and treating the shortage of inventory. In order to overcome these unrealistic problems, the novel safety stock policy of responding to customers' inventory distribution network is suggested. this paper explores the transportation between Central Distribution Center(CDC) and Regional Distribution Center(RDC). Especially, the relation of transportation cost between CDC and RDC and cost of inventory control according to safety inventory with service level are emphasized. We could obtain the good results of this study by determining the optimal safety stock considering the various variables and constraints.
