After lunar explorations were restarted in 1990s, the world space advanced countries have been competing actively to preoccupy the Moon from the 2000s. Korea has been also conducting precedent study on lunar exploration to carry out that by ourselves in 2020. This study analyzed delta-V of various Earth-Moon transfer trajectories for minimization of fuel consumption. Through the simulation, the best Earth-Moon transfer trajectory for Korean lunar mission is suggested and it will be used as useful materials of Korean lunar mission.

The Pohang Light Source (PLS) is a third generation 2 GeV synchrotron machine. An injection kicker modulator is positioned in the PLS storage ring tunnel. The kicker modulator is driving four kicker magnets simultaneously. The kicker magnets produce magnetic field to deflect the stored beam orbit in the storage ring closer to the injected beam from the PLS beam transfer line. The injected beam then falls into the storage ring beam dynamic aperture. The current kicker modulator was upgraded and installed on August 1995. Since then, the kicker modulator has shown very reliable and stable performance. The kicker modulator specifications are ${\sim}6.0{\mu}s$ full width, ${\sim}24$ kA peak current, and 10 Hz repetition rate. Output current waveform is a half sinusoid. Two thyratron switches(EEV CX-1536AX) are used in the kicker modulator. Total accumulated thyratron heater run hour is about 15,000 hours as of May 1998. Measurement result of spatial magnetic field distribution in the kicker magnet shows good uniformity.

The junction properties between the ferromagnet (FM) and two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) system are crucial to develop spin electronic devices. Two types of 2DEG layer, InAs and GaAs channel heterostructures, are fabricated to compare the junction properties of the two systems. InAs-based 2DEG layer with low trans-mission barrier contacts FM and shows ohmic behavior. GaAs-based 2DEG layer with $Al_2O_3$ tunneling layer is also prepared. During heat treatment at the furnace, arsenic gas was evaporated and top AlAs layer was converted to aluminum oxide layer. This new method of forming spin injection barrier on 2DEG system is very efficient to obtain tunneling behavior. In the potentiometric measurement, spin-orbit coupling of 2DEG layer is observed in the interface between FM and InAs channel 2DEG layers, which proves the efficient junction property of spin injection barrier.

이 연구에서는 달천이(TLI: Trans Lunar Injection) 및 달포획(LOI: Lunar Orbit Injection) 기동 시 대전 지상국의 가시성을 고려한 최적의 임무를 설계하였다. TLI 기동은 탐사선이 지구 주차궤도에서 지구-달 천이궤적으로 진입하기 위하여 주어지는 기동이며, LOI 기동은 탐사선이 지구-달 천이궤적에서 달의 중력권으로 진입하기 위하여 주어지는 기동이다. TLI 및 LOI 기동 시 대전 지상국에서의 가시성의 확보는 실제적인 미래 한국의 달 탐사를 대비하였을 때 중요한 요소이다. 따라서 이 연구에서는 TLI 및 LOI 기동 시 대전 지상국에서의 가시성을 모두 고려하여, 최소연료로 지구 주차궤도에서 달 임무궤도 진입까지의 모든 단계에 대해 임무설계를 실시하였다. TLI 및 LOI 기동 시 추력은 순간 추력(Impulsive thrust)로 가정하였으며, KSLV-II 발사체의 성능을 적용하여 설계하였다. 임무 설계 시 태양, 지구, 달의 섭동력을 고려한 N체 운동 방정식을 탐사선에 적용하였으며, 지구의 비대칭 중력장, 태양 복사압, 달의 J2 섭동에 의한 영향도 고려하였다. JPL의 정밀 천체력인 DE405를 사용하였고, 상용 소프트웨어인 SNOPT(Spares Nonlinear OPTimizer)를 이용하여 비행 궤적의 최적해를 도출하였다. 임무 설계 결과를 통해, 대전 지상국의 가시성을 고려한 TLI 및 LOI 기동의 크기에 의한 임무설계의 분석을 수행하였다. 또한 최적화된 달 탐사 임무의 단계별 기동의 크기와 지구-달 천이 궤적의 형상 및 다양한 임무 요소들의 해석을 도출하였다.

한국형 발사체 KSLV-2의 발사능력을 고려하면 달 탐사선의 총 무게는 약 550kg이 된다. 따라서 달 탐사선에 탑재할 수 있는 탑재체 무게를 최대화하기 위해서는 지구에서 달로 가는 천이궤적을 가장 효율적으로 설계하여 연료 소모량을 최소화하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 최근에 달 탐사 천이궤적으로 가장 많이 사용되고 있는 Weak Stability Boundary 천이궤적에 관해 연구를 수행하였다. Weak Stability Boundary 천이궤적은 지구로부터 출발한 후 원지점 약 1.4 km(지구-태양의 L1 점 근처)까지 비행한 후 태양풍을 통해 에너지를 얻어 근지점 거리를 지구-달 거리만큼 증가시켜 LOI(Lunar Orbit Injection)시 ${\Delta}V$를 최소화하여 달 궤도에 들어가는 방법이다. Weak Stability Boundary 천이방법의 TLI(Trans Lunar Injection) 값은 직접천이 방법의 TLI 값보다 더 크지만 달 궤도 진입에 필요한 LOI ${\Delta}V$값은 25% 정도 덜 든다는 장점이 있다. 이 방법은 일본의 Hiten 탐사선이 최초로 사용하였으며, 달에 도착하기까지 수개월이 걸리는 단점이 있다. Weak Stability Boundary 천이궤적 시뮬레이션을 통해 최대로 절약할 수 있는 연료 소모량을 확인할 수 있었으며, 다른 천이방법들과의 장단점 비교를 통해 한국형 달 탐사선의 지구-달 천이궤적 후보로 사용 될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

As the global demand for small satellites weighing less than 500 kg increases, the development and operation of dedicated small launch vehicles increase significantly. The responsiveness of a launch vehicle that puts a small satellite into a target orbit at the desired time is attracting attention. As a result, interest in the air launch is increasing in the rapid establishment of a constellation. As the demand for small satellites in south Korea increases, this study performed analyses on the applicability of an air launch vehicle using a large civil aircraft considering the geographical environment. In terms of responsiveness, mission response times were compared and analyzed for air launch vehicles and ground small and large vehicles. In addition, an air vehicle and a small ground vehicle were quantitatively compared and analyzed for the orbital insertion performance. As a result of the analysis, the air launch vehicle has limited responsiveness in Korea regarding rapid satellite constellation establishment. However, it can be an effective alternative for low inclination angle orbit insertion with the benefit of a fast turnaround time. Furthermore, the performance of the orbital injection is close to that of the ground small launch vehicle, and the high efficiency in terms of the required propellant mass is possible, so air launch can be an effective launch means for putting small satellites into orbit in Korea.

In this paper, the launch trajectory of the Japan scientific satellite M-3H-3 from launch to orbit injection is investigated. For the terminal conditions at a guidance target point, a guidance and control system is used. An open-loop and a closed-loop guidance schemes are used simultaneously. For the closed-loop guidance scheme, the velocity polynomial algorithm represented by the velocity difference between the target point and present velocity is used. A PD control system is used for activating gimbal type engines. The simulation result shows that all the terminal position and velocity conditions are satisfied and the trajectory for the M-3H-3 scientific satellite is reasonable.

In this paper, a fuel minimizing closed loop explicit inertial guidance algorithm for the orbit injection of a rocket is developed. In this formulation, the fuel burning rate and magnitude of thrust are assumed constant, and the motion of a rocket is assumed to be subject to the average inverse-square gravity, but with negligible atmospheric effects. The optimum thrust angle for obtaining the given velocity vector in the shortest time with minimizing fuel consumption is first determined, and then the additive thrust angle for targeting the final position vectors is determined by using Pontryagin's Maximum Principle. To establish the real time processing, many algorithms of the onboard guidance software are simplified. Simulations for the explicit guidance algorithm, for the 2nd-stage flight of the N-1 rocket, are carried out. The results show that the guidance algorithm works well in the presence of the maximum .+-.10 % initial velocity and altitude error. The effects of the guidance cycle time is also examined.

The fan-shroud plays the important role in cooling down the engine heat by the forced convection. As the fan-shroud is made by injection molding, the unbalance of the fan blades is inevitable, and its low frequency characteristics makes it easy to excite the resonances of the environmental structures. So controlling its vibration, specially the dominant vibration source of unbalance vibration, is one of key factor to improve the sound and vibration quality of the modern vehicles. This paper introduces the plane balancing method, the most appropriate way of controlling the fan-shroud by generating the acceleration orbit measured from 2 accelerometers, and proves its balancing effect by the experiment.

In this Paper, a fuel minimizing closed loop explicit inertial guidance algorithm for orbit injection of a rocket is developed. In the formulation, the fuel burning rate and magnitude of thrust are assumed constant. The motion of rocket is assumed to be subject to the average inverse-square gravity, but negligible effects from atmosphere. The optimum thrust angle to obtain a given velocity vector in the shortest time with minimizing fuel consumption is first determined, and then the additive thrust angle for targeting the final position vector is determined by using Pontryagin's maximum principle. To establish real time processing, many algorithms of onboard guidance software are simplified. The explicit guidance algorithm is simulated on the 2nd-stage flight of the N-1 rocket developed in Japan. The results show that the explicit guidance algorithm works well in the presence of the maximum $\pm$10% initial velocity and altitude errors, and exhibits better performance than the open-loop program guidance. The effects of the guidance cycle time are also examined.
