최근 국제해사기구(International Maritime Organization, IMO)는 "극지를 운항하는 선박에 대한 안전기준(Polar Code)"를 제정하여 결정하기로 하였으며, 2012년까지 완료하여 법제화하기로 하였다. 이는 최근의 극해 지역의 연속적인 사고의 심각성에 대한 대비책의 일환이다. 2004년도에 알라스카 앞바다에 침몰한 Selendang Ayu 는 6600만 톤의 콩, 170만 리터의 연료유와 55,564 리터의 MDO 및 다른 오염물질을 바다에 유출하였다. 이는 주변의 동물들에게 심각한 영향을 끼쳤고, 아직까지도 유출되어진 오염물질들을 완전히 처리하지 못한 상태이다(Arctic marine shipping assessment, Arctic council 2009.). 즉, 기름이 유출을 하면 방재시설이 다른 육상에서 오기 전까지는 상당히 오랜 시간 동안, 사고 지역 주변을 오염시키게 되며, 유빙이나 극한의 온도는 방재 작업을 더욱 힘들게 한다. 본 연구에서는 극해와 같은 해역에서 기름이 유출 하였을 때에 대응하는 방법, 즉 현존하는 기계적인 복구 방식, 점화식 처리 방식 과 유처리제 방식을 소개하고, 그에 대한 국제규정 및 기술 발전 동향에 대해서도 설명한다.

전력용 변압기 운반, 설치, 고장전류 유입 등으로 권선 및 철심의 접지, 권선의 층간단락, 개방, 기계적 변형, 이탈, 구조물의 기계적 손상, 이완 등이 발생해도 현재 보유하고 있는 진단장비만으로는 정확한 이상 판단이 불가하여 변압기 해체 후 확인 하는 현실을 감안하여 변압기 기계적 변형 고장분석이 가능한 장비 도입이 필요한 시점이다. 또한 변압기 등 변전기기 고장 발생시 광범위한 고객 정전 및 복구비용이 발생(년 평균 3건)하고 있어 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하고자 2003년 한전에 도입된 SFRA(Sweep Frequency Response Analyzer) 주파수 반응 분석기의 진단 원리 및 권선변형 진단사례를 소개하고자 한다.

본 연구의 목적은 대퇴부가 절단된 다리의 생체 역학적 기능을 복구할 수 있게 하는 의지의 개발을 위하여 5축 링크, 슬관절 완충장치를 사용하여 보행시 입각기를 제어할 수 있는 대퇴 의지 시스템 개발에 있다. 이를 위하여 입각기시 대퇴의지와 지면간 접촉 중 충격 에너지 흡수를 하는 슬관절 완충장치의 기계적 특성 및 거동을 분석하였다. 임상시험을 통하여 개발된 대퇴의지의 성능을 검증한 결과 대퇴 절단 피검자들의 보행특성은 정상인의 보행에 근접한 경향을 보였다. 결론적으로 본 연구에서 개발된 입각기 대퇴의지는 입각기시 현저한 보행 안전성을 보였다.

We developed a polymer pouch using PVP that is water soluble in the precedent study. Yet melt viscosity was so low that it was not possible to produce hemispheric type which is essential for mass production, therefore we used another material to make the polymer pouch. It enabled to figure out a water-soluble transition and mechanic physical property of PEG that is newly chosen, and to blend the PEG with LLDPE and TALC followed by result. So, we could implement an evaluating property on blended proportion. It is important to find out a proper blending ratio throughout an experiment since its property is different or varied followed by each proportion as a water soluble character is conflict to a solid character. With the blending technique we were able to produce the polymer pouch enhanced for a tensile force and an impact intensity maintaining a water soluble character. We could identify a ground solidity effect of the polymer pouch as a result of a direct shear test using the product developed.

An Electrical Point Machine (NS:New-type Switch), which is equipped and operated at railways in Korea, has been used since the 1960s after being imported from Japan. On the other hand, although the mechanical configuration has improved the position motor control circuit, the electrical connection has not been improved, so NS may have a problem, such as the interlocking system of automatic train operation. In addition, NS is the most vulnerable part in the railway system and a huge train accident may occur due to minor defects. The existing NS wiring set of the circuit controller should be checked only if fixed. Therefore, an excessive inspection time only by a Railroad Signal expert is required. In this paper, the improvement of electrical connection in a NS wiring set, such as the position motor control circuit, was developed and the prototype was installed at Seoul Metro in the distance to go section. The results can be used to help make appropriate adjustments. The improvement of the NS wiring set enhance the maintenance efficiency, passenger service and the stability of the signal system as well as reducing the maintenance cost.

Tissue engineering is an emerging research field that has the potential to restore, regenerate and repair damaged bone tissue and organs. Tricalcium phosphate and hydroxyapatite biomaterials-based calcium phosphate are excellent materials that have both osteoconduction and biocompatibility for bone tissue regeneration. In this study, solution structures were successfully fabricated using a fused deposition modeling system based on deposition and heating devices. The morphology characteristics of the bioceramic scaffolds sintered at a temperature of $1,300^{\circ}C$ were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy. The effects of various blended TCP/HA ratio on the microstructure and shrinkage were studied. The mechanical properties of the scaffolds were measured using a compression testing machine from stress-strain curves on the crosshead velocity of 1 mm/min. The fabricated scaffolds were evaluated by cell proliferation tests of MG-63 cells. The results of this study suggest that the blended TCP(75 wt%)/HA(25 wt%) scaffold is an appropriate scaffold for bone tissue regeneration.

Microcapsules having healing agent were prepared in which 2,6-dimethylphenol (DMP) as a healing agent forms the core and melamine/formaldehyde resin forms the shell. Microcapsule-contained asphalts showed better mechanical properties than non-contained ones. And as the rest time passed the impact strength of microcapsule-contained asphalt was getting higher than that of asphalt without the microcapsule. As the rest time of 15 days passed, the original strength was restored. This tells that microcapsule-contained asphalt had the ability of self-healing. X-ray photos proved that DMP on asphalt fracture surface, which were burst out of the microcapsules when cracks occurred on asphalt, were polymerized to polyphenyleneoxide and this PPO covered the crack and healed the damage.

Multitemporal analysis with remotely sensed data is complicated by numerous intervening factors, including atmospheric attenuation and occurrence of clouds that obscure the relationship between ground and satellite observed spectral measurements. Using an adaptive reconstruction system, dynamic compositing approach was developed to recover missing/bad observations. The reconstruction method incorporates temporal variation in physical properties of targets and anisotropic spatial optical properties into image processing. The adaptive system performs the dynamic compositing by obtaining a composite image as a weighted sum of the observed value and the value predicted according to local temporal trend. The proposed system was applied to the sequence of NDVI images of AVHRR observed on the Korean Peninsula from 1999 year to 2000 year. The experiment shows that the reconstructed series can be used as an estimated series with complete data for the observations including bad/missing values. Additionally, the gradient image, which represents the amount of temporal change at the corresponding time, was generated by the proposed system. It shows more clearly temporal variation than the data image series.
