In this Paper, Ⅰ illustrate the continuity and severance of Korean railroad. The Korean railroad has been running for 105 years now since it started operation in 1899. Between 1905 and 1945, Japan's imperial government ruled Korea including operations of the railroad. After Korea restored its sovereignty, Korean nationals managed the Korean railroad with our own ability and strategies. At present, we can examine the effect of railroad in perspective of continuity and severance respectively. For one thing, the concept of continuity is described as influence or railroad still remains. For another, the severance shows facts and phenomena that are broken off. I have come up with some facts that are involved with continuity. For example, infrastructure and the formation of cities and land spaces are connected with the sequence. Futhermore, the railroad has made a huge dent in modernization and expedition of movement. In the course of tracing down the facts, I classified the concept of severance : the separation of South and North Korea, drastic changes in transport policy, operations and characteristics. Finally technology has brought about a major breakthrough with the development of Koran high speed rail.

A numerical study to investigate the effect of intake vortex occurrence on the performance of an axial hydraulic turbine for generating tidal power energy in Sihwa-lake tidal power plant, Korea, is performed. Numerical analysis of the flow through an sxial hydraulic turbine is carried out by solving three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes dquations with the shear stress transport turbulence model. In the real turbine operation, the vortex flows are occurred in both the side corners around the intake of an axial hydraulic turbine due to the interaction between the inflow angle of water and intake structure. To analyze these vortex phenomena and to evaluate their impacts on the turbine performance, the internal flow fields of the axial hydraulic turbines with the different inflow angles are compared with their performances. As the results of numerical analysis, the vortex flows do not directly affect the turbine performance.

Recently, there has been considerable research in the field of application of Laser-Arc hybrid welding for superstructures, such as ship-structures, transport vehicles etc. However, the study on heat distribution and welding residual stress of hybrid weld by numerical simulation leaves much to be desired. Therefore, in this study, an optimized welding condition and numerical simulation for hybrid welding, using previous numerical analysis to calculate the heat source for hybrid welding, has been analyzed. For this purpose, fundamental welding phenomena of the hybrid process, using Laser and, is investigated. In order to calculate temperature and residual stress distribution in hybrid welds, a finite element heat source model is developed on the basis of experimental results and characteristics of temperature. Residual stress distribution in hybrid welds are understood from the result of simulation, and compared with the experimental values.

The serpentine flow channel is widely used in polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) to prevent flooding phenomena because it effectively removes liquid water in the flow channel. The pressure drop between inlet and outlet increases as compared with straight channels due to minor losses associated with the corners of the turning configurations. This results in a strong pressure gradient between adjacent channels in specific regions, where some amount of reactant gas can be delivered to catalyst layers by convection through a gas diffusion layer (GDL). The enhancement of the convective flow in the GDL, so-called bypass flow, affects fuel cell performance since the bypass flow influences the reactant transport and thus its concentration over the active area. In the present paper, for the bipolar plate design, a simple analytic model has been proposed to predict the bypass flow in the serpentine type flow channels and validated with three-dimensional numerical simulation results.

Cruciform conjugated molecule, 4(DP3T)-benzene bearing terthiophene moieties has been synthesized through Horner-Emmons Reaction using 5-dodecyl-5"-aldehyde-[2,2';5',2"] terthiophene as dendrons and octaethyl benzene- 1,2,4,5-tetrayltetrakis(methylene)tetraphosphonate as the core unit; this molecule has been fully characterized. The terthiophene-based molecule exhibits good solubility in common organic solvents and good self-film forming property. They are intrinsically crystalline as they exhibit well-defined X-ray diffraction patterns from uniform orientations of molecules. Thus, intermolecular interaction can be enhanced to affect the carrier transport phenomena after annealing at $148^{\circ}C$. The semiconducting property of 4(DP3T)-benzene have been evaluated in organic field-effect transistors. 4(DP3T)-benzene exhibit carrier mobility as high as $(6.6{\pm}0.5)$ ${\times}$ $10^{-6}cm^2V^{-1}s^{-1}$.

In the recent years, the high strength concrete has increasingly been used according to extending market of tall buildings. However, Ministry of Land, transport and Maritime Affairs was established by law with an alternative plan after June 2008 because of the weakness of high strength concrete accompanied spalling phenomena in fire. The mix design of concrete has to properly meet standards which are the spalling resistance of concrete and limited temperature of steel reinforcement. The fire proof concrete mixed fiber has widely been used to meet spalling safety on the many construction sites, the most researches about the fire proof concrete mixed fiber had being carried out focused on fire resistance, compressive strength and cast in place of concrete. But the most important thing is column shortening used the fire proof concrete within the vertical members. In this paper, the fire proof concrete filled spalling safety standards was experimented by required material when the column shortening is revised between normal concrete and fire proof concrete mixed fiber and then the results have done a comparative analysis. Also, The paper aimed to indicate a basic data for revision of column shortening of fire proof concrete.

A simplified analytical modeling for micro-sized single metal particle combustion in air was conducted in the present study. The metal particle combustion consists of two distinct reaction regimes, ignition and quasi-steady burning, and the thermo-fluidic phenomena in each stage are formulated by virtue of the conservation and transport equations. Reliability of the model is shown by rigorous validation of the method with emphasis laid on the characterizing the commanding parameters. Effects of Initial particle size, initial oxide film thickness, convection, ambient pressure and temperature are examined and addressed with validation.

We present a finite difference solution for electrokinetic flow in rectangular microchannels encompassing Navier's fluid slip phenomena. The externally applied body force originated from between the nonlinear Poisson-Boltzmann field around the channel wall and the flow-induced electric field is employed in the equation of motion. The basic principle of net current conservation is applied in the ion transport. The effects of the slip length and the long-range repulsion upon the velocity profile are examined in conjunction with the friction factor. It is evident that the fluid slip counteracts the effect by the electric double layer and induces a larger flow rate. Particle streak imaging by fluorescent microscope and the data processing method developed ourselves are applied to straight channel designed to allow for flow visualization of dilute latex colloids underlying the condition of simple fluid. The reliability of the velocity profile determined by the flow imaging is justified by comparing with the finite difference solution. We recognized the behavior of fluid slip in velocity profiles at the hydrophobic surface of polydimethylsiloxane wall, from which the slip length was evaluated for different conditions.

Analyses of flow and heat transfer characteristics and shape optimization of internally finned circular tubes have been performed for three-dimensional periodically fully developed turbulent flow and heat transfer. CFD and mathematical optimization are coupled in order to optimize the shape of heat exchanger. The design variables such as fin widths $(d_{1},\;d_{2})$ and fin height (h) are numerically optimized by minimizing the pressure loss and maximizing the heat transfer rate for limiting conditions of $d_{1}=0.2\~1.5\;mm,\;d_{2}=0.2\~1.5\;mm,$ and $h=0.2\~1.5mm$. Due to the periodic boundary conditions along main flow direction, the three layers of meshes are considered. The flow and thermal fields are predicted using the finite volume method and the optimization is carried out by means of the sequential quadratic programming (SQP) method which is widely used in the constrained nonlinear optimization problem.
