Scientific and technological progress is also fundamental to the evolving merchant shipping industry, both in terms of the size and speed of modern ships and in the level of their technical capabilities. While the freight performance of ships is growing, the number of crew on board is steadily decreasing, as more work processes are being automated through the implementation of information technologies, including ship management systems. Although there have been repeated appeals from international maritime organizations to focus on building effective maritime security defenses against cyber attacks, the problems have remained unresolved. Owners of shipping companies do not disclose information about cyberattack attempts or incidents against them due to fear of commercial losses or consequences, such as loss of image, customer and insurance claims, and investigations by independent international organizations and government agencies. Issues of cybersecurity of control systems in the world today have gained importance, due to the fact that existing threats concern not only the security of technical means and devices, but also issues of environmental safety and safety of life at sea. The article examines the implementation of cyber risk management in the shipping industry, providing recommendations for the safe ship operation and its systems in order to improve vulnerability to external threats related to cyberattacks, and to ensure the safety and security of such a technical object as a seagoing ship.

Maritime transport is dominant in the overall volume of all international transportation. Existence and overcoming of problems, which cause pressure on shipping safety, remain actual and fully concern both maritime and inland transport. Increasing speed and cargo capacity of the ships along with the reduction of crew members lead to the automation of a growing number of work processes, which indicates the need to actively introduce appropriate measures in the security system of sea-going ships and commercial ports and to develop modern approaches to minimize negative events and incidents in the process of ship operation. Advantages in use of modern methods of monitoring the safety of ship operations, management of possible events and incidents, including investigation of accidents, first, aimed at prevention of negative occurrences and ways of prevention on this basis. Considering statistics on incidents increase, this work presents analysis of general ship accident rate, study of major accidental events growth annually, and investigation of causes of incidents, which most frequently occur in port waters and at open sea. A survey of current approaches to ensuring the safety of shipping by implementing effective tools, such as event and incident management, has been conducted.

Purpose - Korea became a trillion-dollar trading country in 2011. With the exponential increase in Korea's trade volume over the past decades, trade-related administrative burdens per capita for Korea Customs became enormous, for which the government established the Single Window, a trade-facilitating system, in 2004 to enhance the efficiency of customs-clearing procedures for traders. This paper focuses on finding whether the Korean Single Window system affects the country's trade facilitation positively through an empirical methodology. Design/methodology - To find empirical evidence that Single Window affects trade facilitation for the customs-clearing procedure, this study assumes that a time-efficient environment enables the handling of the increase in trade volume, under which four independent variables related to import customs-clearing procedures and two dependent variables to import were adopted for empirical analysis. The import customs procedures are classified into four steps from port entry to declaration acceptance. To understand the relationship between variables, scattered plots and correlation coefficients were calculated. Eight hypotheses were set and underwent simple linear regression. The data for analysis were collected by Korea Customs, and were about the lead time of import, the volume of imports in million USD, and the number of import declarations reported to customs offices on a monthly basis from 2005 to 2013. Findings - Six of the eight hypotheses showed the statistically significant result that lead time in the import customs-clearing procedure positively affects the number of import declaration reports and import volume. Specifically, Hypothesis 1, Hypothesis 2, and Hypothesis 3 strongly support the assumption lead time in import customs declaration has an inverse relationship with the number of import declarations, which means that the shorter the import lead time, the more import declaration increases. Research Limitations/Implications - With limited data accessibility to the government's custom-sclearing procedures, only the import lead time for customs clearance were adopted as independent variables. This paper, however, successfully found that the Single Window system contributed to trade facilitation. Originality/value - This study found that the time-saving Single Window system of Korea Customs enables itself to manage an exponentially-increasing trade volume by creating a trade-facilitating environment for customs personnel and traders, which may be a unique implication found through quantitative methodology.

Hybrid rockets have lately attracted attention as a strong candidate of small, low cost, safe and reliable launch vehicles. A significant topic is that the first commercially sponsored space ship, SpaceShipOne vehicle chose a hybrid rocket. The main factors for the choice were safety of operation, system cost, quick turnaround, and thrust termination. In Japan, five universities including Hokkaido University and three private companies organized "Hybrid Rocket Research Group" from 1998 to 2002. Their main purpose was to downsize the cost and scale of rocket experiments. In 2002, UNISEC (University Space Engineering Consortium) and HASTIC (Hokkaido Aerospace Science and Technology Incubation Center) took over the educational and R&D rocket activities respectively and the research group dissolved. In 2008, JAXA/ISAS and eleven universities formed "Hybrid Rocket Research Working Group" as a subcommittee of the Steering Committee for Space Engineering in ISAS. Their goal is to demonstrate technical feasibility of lowcost and high frequency launches of nano/micro satellites into sun-synchronous orbits. Hybrid rockets use a combination of solid and liquid propellants. Usually the fuel is in a solid phase. A serious problem of hybrid rockets is the low regression rate of the solid fuel. In single port hybrids the low regression rate below 1 mm/s causes large L/D exceeding a hundred and small fuel loading ratio falling below 0.3. Multi-port hybrids are a typical solution to solve this problem. However, this solution is not the mainstream in Japan. Another approach is to use high regression rate fuels. For example, a fuel regression rate of 4 mm/s decreases L/D to around 10 and increases the loading ratio to around 0.75. Liquefying fuels such as paraffins are strong candidates for high regression fuels and subject of active research in Japan too. Nakagawa et al. in Tokai University employed EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate) to modify viscosity of paraffin based fuels and investigated the effect of viscosity on regression rates. Wada et al. in Akita University employed LTP (Low melting ThermoPlastic) as another candidate of liquefying fuels and demonstrated high regression rates comparable to paraffin fuels. Hori et al. in JAXA/ISAS employed glycidylazide-poly(ethylene glycol) (GAP-PEG) copolymers as high regression rate fuels and modified the combustion characteristics by changing the PEG mixing ratio. Regression rate improvement by changing internal ballistics is another stream of research. The author proposed a new fuel configuration named "CAMUI" in 1998. CAMUI comes from an abbreviation of "cascaded multistage impinging-jet" meaning the distinctive flow field. A CAMUI type fuel grain consists of several cylindrical fuel blocks with two ports in axial direction. The port alignment shifts 90 degrees with each other to make jets out of ports impinge on the upstream end face of the downstream fuel block, resulting in intense heat transfer to the fuel. Yuasa et al. in Tokyo Metropolitan University employed swirling injection method and improved regression rates more than three times higher. However, regression rate distribution along the axis is not uniform due to the decay of the swirl strength. Aso et al. in Kyushu University employed multi-swirl injection to solve this problem. Combinations of swirling injection and paraffin based fuel have been tried and some results show very high regression rates exceeding ten times of conventional one. High fuel regression rates by new fuel, new internal ballistics, or combination of them require faster fuel-oxidizer mixing to maintain combustion efficiency. Nakagawa et al. succeeded to improve combustion efficiency of a paraffin-based fuel from 77% to 96% by a baffle plate. Another effective approach some researchers are trying is to use an aft-chamber to increase residence time. Better understanding of the new flow fields is necessary to reveal basic mechanisms of regression enhancement. Yuasa et al. visualized the combustion field in a swirling injection type motor. Nakagawa et al. observed boundary layer combustion of wax-based fuels. To understand detailed flow structures in swirling flow type hybrids, Sawada et al. (Tohoku Univ.), Teramoto et al. (Univ. of Tokyo), Shimada et al. (ISAS), and Tsuboi et al. (Kyushu Inst. Tech.) are trying to simulate the flow field numerically. Main challenges are turbulent reaction, stiffness due to low Mach number flow, fuel regression model, and other non-steady phenomena. Oshima et al. in Hokkaido University simulated CAMUI type flow fields and discussed correspondence relation between regression distribution of a burning surface and the vortex structure over the surface.

코로나19는 선원교대를 지연시키면서 선박과 선원의 안전에 위협을 가하고 있다. 선원의 승선환경에 있어 해운기업과 정부가 놓치고 있는 사각지대는 존재하고 있다. 선원의 안전을 위협하는 비상체제 상황에서 인적사고를 유발할 가능성을 제거하기 위해 효과적인 교대방안을 구상해볼 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 전직 및 현직 선원을 대상으로 설문조사를 진행한 결과, 승선생활에서 가장 중요하게 생각하는 요인은 안전이었으며 비상체제 상황에서 가장 필요한 것은 임금 및 복지의 향상보다 선원의 원활한 교대방안이 우선적으로 확보되어야 한다고 응답하였다. 국적해운기업의 대륙별 주요 항로를 분석하여 기항 횟수가 많고 항공연계성지수가 높은 항만을 거점항만으로 선정하였다. 또한, 국제해운에 승선하는 국내 선원의 효과적인 교대를 위한 이동경로를 구상하였다. 그를 위해 비상 시 선원의 안전한 본국 귀환 및 이송을 위하여 선박과 항만, 항공을 연계한 이동경로 구축은 다른 나라와의 협의가 필수적이다. 또한, 국제해사기구의 협력을 통해 선원교대의 어려움에 처해있는 선원들을 위해 함께 노력할 필요가 있다. 이를 시작으로 국적 선원이 승선하는 정기선과 부정기선의 귀항로 및 불귀항로 정보와 선원 수에 대한 모니터링 체계를 갖추어 상시 확인할 수 있어야 한다. 그러한 체계가 갖추어진다면 비상체제 발생 시 우리나라의 정책 대응방향을 보다 빠르게 결정할 수 있을 것이다. 선원들의 처우를 개선하기 위한 해운기업의 노력과 더불어 개정이 필요한 국내법을 검토하고 선원에 대한 인식을 개선하기 위한 국민적·사회적 관심이 필요할 것이다.

Purpose: This study was conducted to observe the outcomes of postoperative radiotherapy (PORT) with or without concurrent chemotherapy in resected non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in single institution. Materials and Methods: From 2002 to 2013, 78 patients diagnosed with NSCLC after curative resection were treated with radiotherapy alone (RT, n = 48) or concurrent chemoradiation (CCRT, n = 30). The indications of adjuvant radiation therapy were N2 node positive (n = 31), close or involved resection margin (n = 28), or gross residual disease due to incomplete resection (n = 19). The median radiation dose was 57.6 Gy (range, 29.9 to 66 Gy). Results: Median survival time was 33.7 months (range, 4.4 to 140.3 months). The 5-year overall survival (OS) rate was 49.5% (RT 46% vs. CCRT 55.2%; p = 0.731). The 3-year disease-free survival rate was 45.5% (RT 39.4% vs. CCRT 55.3%; p = 0.130). The 3-year local control rate was 68.1% (RT 64.4% vs. CCRT 77.7%; p = 0.165). The 3-year DMFS rate was 56.1% (RT 52.6% vs. CCRT 61.7%; p = 0.314). In multivariate analysis, age ${\geq}66$ years and pathologic stage III were significant poor prognostic factors for OS. Treatment failure occurred in 40 patients. Four patients had radiologically confirmed grade 3 radiation pneumonitis. Conclusion: In NSCLC, adjuvant RT or CCRT after curative surgery is a safe and feasible modality of treatment. OS gain was seen in patients less than 66 years. Postoperative CCRT showed a propensity of achieving better local control and improved disease-free survival compared to RT alone according to our data.

화석연료의 고갈에 따른 연료유의 가격상승과 세계온난화에 따른 그린하우스가스(Green House Gas, GHG)등의 문제가 주목받고 있다. 이러한 이유로 해상운송사업은 연료의 소비를 줄이고 환경보호를 위해 온실가스를 줄이기 위한 친환경선박(Green ship) 기술에 대하여 관심을 보이고 있다. 선박의 전력시스템은 안전한 운항을 위한 가장 주요한 요소 중 하나이다. 이러한 이유로 선박 설계에 있어 대부분의 선박은 바우 스러스터(Bow thruster, B/T), 크레인 등의 장비사용에 따른 피크부하로 인하여 큰 용량의 발전기를 사용하고 있다. 이러한 이유로 선박의 항해에 있어 대부분의 선박의 발전기는 저부하 운전구간에서 운전되게 된다. 50%또는 그 이하의 운전율인 저부하 운전에서는 발전기의 운전효율이 저하하게 되어 많은 연료유를 소비하며 발전기 수명에 좋지 않은 영향을 미치게 된다. 본 논문에서는 입출항이 비교적 많이 있는 컨테이너선박에 이차전지 적용방안에 대하여 연구하였다. 그 결과 이차전지를 적용하여 항해 중 발전기 운전율을 높이므로 연료 소비를 줄일 수 있음을 확인하였다.

해상교량 하부의 직선항로 길이 확보는 선박 통항 안전을 위한 중요한 요소 중 하나이다. 그러나 항만 및 어항 설계기준에 따르면 해상교량 하부 직선항로 길이는 선박길이의 8배로 획일적인 가이드라인을 적용하고 있다. 본 연구는 적정 해상교량 하부직선길이를 도출하기 위해 ES 모델을 이용하여 항로폭, 통항량, 항로의 곡률, 직선항로길이에 따른 위험도 비율을 확인했다. 확인 결과 항로의 곡률이 $45^{\circ}$의 경우 항로길이가 3L에서 10L로 길어짐에 따라 위험도 비율이 2.27 % 감소했다. 곡률에 따른 위험도는 직선항로의 길이가 3L의 경우 곡률이 $45^{\circ}$에서 $0^{\circ}$로 변하면서 위험도 비율이 4.83 % 감소하는 것을 확인했다. 또한 항로폭 400 m, 시간당 발생선박이 20척의 조건에서 항로의 곡률별, 직선항로에 따른 위험도 비율은 최대 1.45 % 감소하는 것을 확인했다. 이를 통해 해상 교량 건설 시 항로의 혼잡도 및 곡률에 따라 일정 길이 이상의 직선항로가 필요함을 검증했다.
