A feasibility study of thrust control of hybrid propulsion system for lunar exploration is presented. The thrust control experiments were performed by controlling the oxidizer mass flow rate where the thrust modulation is carried by using a ball valve and a stepping motor. The gaseous oxygen (GOX) and the HDPE (High Density PolyEthylene) were used for the oxidizer and solid fuel, respectively. It was found that the thrust levels were stable without much fluctuation during the modulation period, and that the thrust was exactly controlled with target thrust modulation ratio of 53% and 32%.

Long-term performance of smooth and textured type HDPE geomembranes which were used to the liner and slope systems of waste landfills was examined. Artificial surface defects were added to the surface of geomembranes by scratch addition apparatus specially designed. The mechanical and frictional properties, chemical and ultra violet light resistances and oxidative induction time(OIT) of geomembranes were examined for the cases of defective/non-defective surfaces. Frictional properties of textured type geomembranes showed more excellent than those of smooth type geomembranes. Finally, it was known that the long-term performance of non-defective and textured geomembranes was better than that of defective geomembranes through chemical and UV resistance and OIT tests etc.

Air filters are being used in countless places from industrial sites to everyday life. The spread of the COVID-19 virus, which started in 2019, is disrupting people's daily lives, and the importance of air filters as a basic means to prevent the spread of these diseases is further highlighted. In this study, the purpose was to develop another type of air filter media with excellent barrier properties that can replace PP meltblown nonwoven fabrics widely used commercially due to its excellent electrostatic properties, differential pressure and filtration efficiency. Therefore, wet-laid nonwoven for air filters were manufactured using plexi-filaments formed through flash spinning and having various fiber diameter from hundreds of nanometers to tens of micrometers, and its applicability as an air-filter media was investigated compared to the meltblown nonwoven. As a result of the performance evaluation, it was found that the filtration efficiency and barrier performance at 0.3㎛ was superior to that of the meltblown nonwoven of the same weight, although the differential pressure was high due to morphological properties of the plexi-filament.

Cellular Foundation Mattress made of new materials such as high density polyethylene, are not currently use for the foundation of small and medium-sized buildings in Korea. Therefore, they need to be developed and verified based on domestic ground and field conditions. This study presents the basic design and construction method of Cellular Foundation Mattress. Since the foundation reinforcement effect of Cellular Foundation Mattress should be evaluated and verified for soft ground, a performance comparison evaluation was conducted using the Soilbag method, which is commonly used for the foundation of small and medium-sized buildings in Korea. After the mattress reinforcement, the settlement amount decreased by 38.4% compared to the original ground and the bearing capacity increased by 159%, confirming the same ground reinforcement effect and ground stability as the Soilbag method.

The first packaging of Korean market milk dates back to July 1937 when Seoul Dairy Co-operative (Kyung Seong Dairy Co-operative in those days) used 1 hob (180 ml) glass bottles with either paper caps or cork caps. During 1945-1972, 2 hob (360 ml) glass bottles were produced, and iron caps and egret-shaped plastic film replaced the previously used caps. When there were insufficient numbers of milk bottles, other glass bottles such as soda drink bottles and beer bottles were used instead. Seoul Dairy Co-operative was the only dairy company existing in Korea until Nam Yang Dairy Co. Ltd was founded in March 1964, followed by Hae Tae Dairy Co. Ltd(Tae Han Food Public Corporation in those days) in 1969 and Mae-il Dairy Co. Ltd (Korea Dairy Company in those days) in May 1971. As many other dairy companies along with the above-mentioned companies were established, a variety of dairy products were packaged and marketed. In 1971 Seoul Dairy Co-operative first used triangular-shaped polyethylene film wrappers, and in 1972 Nam Yang Diary was the first company importing sterilized Tetra pak for the packaging of milk. Since 1974 rectangular shaped polyethylene film wrappers and plastic bottles were used. In 1977 the gable top carton pack made of paper was first introduced by Seo Joo Industry Co. Ltd, and its market share increased rapidly with gradual increase in its volume, from 180ml to 200ml, to 250ml, to 500ml and finally to 1,000ml, causing change in the volume of milk consumption. And in Sep. 1987 Pasteur market milk Co. Ltd. first used round type high density polyethylene bottle(body) with low density polyethylene cap of 245g, 490g and 980g volumes respectively.

Catalytic decomposition over HZSM-5 was carried out in semi-batch reactor to recover gasoline from waste plastics(HDPE). To enhance the liquid yield with a molecule range of gasoline, the properties of catalytic decomposition were investigated over a commercial Si/ZSM-5 catalyst and HZSM-5 catalysts modified with P and Mg. Optimum loadings of P and Mg on HZSM-5 were 0.5 wt% and 2.0 wt%, respectively, based on conversion and liquid yield. $NH_3-TPD$ profile indicated that strong and weak acid sites totally decreased in P loading on HZSM-5 catalyst, strong acid sites moderately decreased and weak acid sites sharply reduced in Mg loading on HZSM-5 catalyst. In the case of Si/ZSM-5 catalyst, all acid sites almost disappeared, subsequently, catalytic decomposition significantly decreased, and little liquid product was produced. When HZSM-5 catalyst was modified with P and Mg, the carbon distribution of liquid product was shifted to lower carbon number and its all components was within a molecular range of gasoline($C_5-C_{11}$). Especially, over Mg(2.0 wt%)/ZSM-5 catalyst, 55.8% of liquid yield with 100% of a molecular range of gasoline, was obtained at $400^{\circ}C$, suggesting it as a promising catalyst for recycle of waste plastics.

It is difficult to get a satisfactory result for the correction of malunited fracture of zygoma. Triple osteotomy and reposition of malunited zygoma is accepted as the better surgical method than camouflage surgery by means of onlays, if the orbital floor is to be reconstructed. The surgical approach can be divided into bicoronal, periorbital, intraoral and old scar. In 7 patients with malunited fracture of zygoma, the authors used a limited approach through extension of periorbital incision and intraoral incision instead of wide exposure including bicoronal incision. And we performed triple osteotomy and advancement of zygoma complex. The patients were followed for 4.5 months with acceptable result, and this approach was an effective method for the relatively simple tripod type-malunited fracture of zygoma. The authors obtained following conclusions: 1. Preoperative evaluation through thorough measurement of X-rays, investigation of photographs and detail communication with the patients was an important process. 2. Through lateral extension of subciliary incision, lateral eyebrow and intraoral incision, we could obtain adequate exposure for triple osteotomy and advancement of zygoma. 3. The zygoma should be reduced and fixed in an overcorrected superior and medial direction. 4. Return of zygoma to its anatomical position was possible only when it is completely freed from the surrounding soft tissue including masseter. 5. We could not find any different results between autogenous calvareal bone graft and $Medpor^{(R)}$ insertion on the floor of orbit.

In this study, neutron detection efficiency of the UNDA system, which has been developed for study on nuclear material accountancy in a future pyro-process facility, was evaluated by using the MCNPX code. The detection efficiency was evaluated as a function of (1) positions of $^{252}Cf$ neutron source in the axial and radial directions, and (2) thicknesses and locations of the container filled with the depleted uranium materials for two different designs of the UNDA. In the case of $^{252}Cf$ source positions, detection efficiency was distributed from 6.83% to 13.35%. As $^{252}Cf$ source was positioned at upper part in the axial direction, detection efficiency was decreased after a slight increase. On the other hands, as $^{252}Cf$ source was positioned at outer part in the radial direction, detection efficiency was increased. In the case of container thickness, there was a slight decline when the thickness was increased. As the container was located at upper part, detection efficiency was decreased and as the container was located at outer part, detection efficiency was increased. Detection efficiency was varied from 10.31% to 13.61%. These values were higher than that of $^{252}Cf$ source case. The UNDA with polyethylene cover has about 2% higher detection efficiency than the UNDA without the cover.

In this paper, a hardware design method is proposed for high speed high precision neutron radiation measurements. Our system is fabricated to use a high performance A/D Converter for digital data conversion of high precision and high speed analog signals. Using a neutron sensor, incident neutron radiation particles are detected; a precision microcurrent measurement module is also included: this module allows for more precise and rapid neutron radiation measurement design. The high speed high precision neutron measurement hardware system is composed of the neutron sensor, variable high voltage generator, microcurrent precision measurement component, embedded system, and display screen. The neutron sensor detects neutron radiation using high density polyethylene. The variable high voltage generator functions as a 0 ~ 2KV variable high voltage generator that is robust against heat and noise; this generator allows the neutron sensor to perform normally. The microcurrent precision measurement component employs a high performance A/D Converter to precisely and swiftly measure the high precision high speed microcurrent signal from the neutron sensor and to convert this analog signal into a digital one. The embedded system component performs multiple functions including neutron radiation measurement for high speed high precision neutron measurements, variable high voltage generator control, wired and wireless communications control, and data recording. Experiments using the proposed high speed high precision neutron measurement hardware shows that the hardware exhibits superior performance compared to that of conventional equipment with regard to measurement uncertainty, neutron measurement rate, accuracy, and neutron measurement range.
