Recently, the participation on the development of the natural gas pipeline in Russia as well as the recent construction of the second Korean Antarctic research station, the Jangbogo station provide the research interests on the behavior of the permafrost ground. To investigate the effect of fines on the mechanical responses of frozen sands, unconfined compression tests were performed on the frozen sands with 0, 5, 10 and 15% of fine contents at -5, -10 and $-15^{\circ}C$. The poorly graded (SP) Joomunjin sand and kaolinite, silt with low plasticity (ML) were used for the preparation of the frozen soil specimens. The mechanical responses of the tested soils were investigated via unconfined compression tests in the temperature controlled laboratory and analyzed in terms of peak unconfined compressive strength and secant modulus at 50% of the peak strength. As the fine contents increase, the unfrozen water contents increase and thus the strength and stiffness of frozen soils decrease. The increment of the stiffness and strength due to the temperature decrease vary with the fine contents.

A construction of infrastructures and base station on the moon could be undertaken by linking with the regions where construction materials and energy could be supplied on site. It is necessary to detect craters on the lunar surface and gather their topological information in advance, which forms permanent shaded regions (PSR) in which rich ice deposits might be available. In this study, an effective method for automatic detection of lunar craters on the moon surface is taken into consideration by employing a latest version of deep-learning algorithm. A training of a deep-learning algorithm is performed by involving the still images of 90000 taken from the LRO orbiter on operation by NASA and the label data involving position and size of partly craters shown in each image. the Faster RCNN algorithm, which is a latest version of deep-learning algorithms, is applied for a deep-learning training. The trained deep-learning code was used for automatic detection of craters which had not been trained. As results, it is shown that a lot of erroneous information for crater's positions and sizes labelled by NASA has been automatically revised and many other craters not labelled has been detected. Therefore, it could be possible to automatically produce regional maps of crater density and topological information on the moon which could be changed through time and should be highly valuable in engineering consideration for lunar construction.

신$\cdot$재생에너지는 환경친화적이면서 무한하게 공급되므로 지속가능한 미래 에너지원으로 각광받고 있으나 선행투자와 시장전망의 불확실성 때문에 정부 주도의 개발이 필요하다. 정부는 이러한 여건에 있는 신$\cdot$재생에너지 사업의 활성화를 위하여 공공기관 신축 건물에 대해 신$\cdot$재생에너지의 이용을 의무화하는 법령을 만들고, RPS제도를 도입하는 것을 검토하는 둥의 노력을 하고 있다. 이러한 정책수립 과정에서 국민들의 의견을 수렴하여 충분히 반영해야 신규 정책에 대한 타당성이 뒷받침되게 된다. 이에 일반 국민의 신$\cdot$재생에너지에 대한 관심과 선호도에 대한 인식을 분석하기 위해 일반 국민에게 가장 보편적으로 알려져 있거나 이용 중인 특정 신$\cdot$재생에너지의 종류를 알아보고, 아울러 가장 도움을 주거나 우리나라 여건에 적절하다고 국민들이 기대하는 종류가 무엇인지 조사하였다. 또 거주지역에 신$\cdot$재생에너지 생산기지가 건설되는 것에 대한 찬반 의견을 물어 일반 혐오시설 건설에 대한 의견과 비교하고, 응답이 각 계층별로 어떠한 양상을 띠는지 조사하였다. 이를 통해 정부의 신·재생에너지 정책에 대한 국민들의 입장과 수용여부를 분석하고자 한다. 응답자 중 대부분이 태양열과 풍력 에너지라는 용어를 경험한 것으로 드러난 반면, 소수력과 바이오매스 에너지는 생소하게 느끼고 있었다 일반적으로 친숙한 용어의 신$\cdot$재생에너지의 종류에 대해 기대를 갖고 있는 반면, 생소한 신·재생에너지에 대해서는 기대 수준이 낮은 것으로 나타나 신·재생에너지 관련 교육의 필요성을 보여주고 있다. 또 여성보다는 남성이, 그리고 신$\cdot$재생에너지에 대한 사전지식이 많을수록 거주지역에 신$\cdot$재생에너지 생산기지를 건설하는 것에 대해 호의적이었다.

One of the main function of Ieodo Ocean Research Station is to service the information about the weather and fishing grounds condition which are collected through calibrating convection flow and ocean current around the station. However, due to the influence of the station's structure below sea level, it is difficult to obtain the exact flow data. Therefore, it is required to research on the effect of the structure and the method to evaluate and revise the observed data. In this paper, as a basic study, it deals with the algorithm that simulate the interaction between ocean current and the station structure, followed by discussions about the way to applicate the algorithm. Through 3-dimensional computational fluid dynamics analyses (using Navier-Stokes equations with K-turbulence model), the influence of the station and submerged rocks are quantitatively evaluated, and we would suggest methods how to obtain accurate flow information from the measured rough data.

The scholarly concern of train industry has been improved, since country focuses on this field. Especially, train maintenance facility has been studied for construction, because the facility is important to inspect the train that transports passenger and cargo. Various operation plans and criteria are considered to build train maintenance facility. In this paper, the decision making of train maintenance facility for construction is studied and analyzed with simulation, because mathematical theory is restricted to consider various operation plans and criteria. Through simulation, we analyze warm-up after selecting dependent factors, and extract data. The data is used to select a alternative in this problem, Multiple Attribute Decision Making(MADM). Previous study is difficult, complex and subjective for decision making. However, entropy measurement we used help decision maker for decision making, easily, simply, and objectively. This method can have decision maker choose the best alternative in case the train maintenance facility construction is fast revitalized.

The allotment rate for railway transportation keeps an yearly 6% in Korea. However, the railway logistics will cause the opposite result according to the continuous investment and logistics rationalization. The study on railway logistics as well as inter-Korean railway that might highly contribute to the development of railway logistics is not enough at all. The purpose of this paper is to study the revitalization strategy for inter-Korean railway by forecasting the demand and the scale of railway logistics depot. The revitalization strategies for inter-Korean railway through railway logistics depot are as followings. First, it is necessary to strengthen the partnership with coal user in the logistics depot. Second, it is encouraged to provide the financial assistance that are needed in the maintenance of the decrepit North Korea's track as well as the establishment of Donghae northern line that is from Gangneung to Jejin. Third, the railway cost on long/short transportation and large sized shipper is needed to apply in a flexible way. Fourth, it is necessary to obtain the railway traffic right by involving the foreign mining development. Fifth, it is encouraged to constantly find the small sized shipper like cement company.

The Global Expansion Roadmap published by the International Space Exploration Coordination Group, which is organized by space agencies around the world, presents future lunar exploration guidance and stresses a lunar habitat program to utilize lunar resources. The Moon attracts attention as an outpost for deep space exploration. Simulating lunar surface environments is required to evaluate the performances of various equipment for future lunar surface missions. In this paper, an experimental study was conducted to simulate high vacuum pressure and cryogenic temperature of the permanent shadow regions in the lunar south pole, which is a promising candidate for landing and outpost construction. The establishment of an efficient dirty thermal vacuum chamber (DTVC) operation process has never been presented. One-dimensional ground cooling tests were conducted with various vacuum pressures with the Korean Lunar Simulant type-1 (KLS-1) in DTVC. The most advantageous vacuum pressure was found to be 30-80 mbar, considering the cooling efficiency and equipment stability. However, peripheral cooling is also required to simulate a cryogenic for not sublimating ice in a high vacuum pressure. In this study, an efficient peripheral cooling operation process was proposed by applying the frost ratio concept.
