Quantitative analysis on release behavior of the $^{85}Kr\;and\;^{14}C$ fission gases from the spent fuel material during the voloxidation and OREOX process has been performed. This thermal treatment step in a remote fabrication process to fabricate the dry-processed fuel from spent fuel has been used to obtain a fine powder The fractional release percent of fission gases from spent fuel materials with burn-up ranges from 27,000 MWd/tU to 65,000 MWd/tU have been evaluated by comparing the measured data with these initial inventories calculated by ORIGEN code. The release characteristics of $^{85}Kr\;and\;^{14}C$ fission gases during the voloxidation process at $500^{\circ}C$ seem to be closely linked to the degree of conversion efficiency of $UO_2\;to\;U_3O_8$ powder, and it is thus interpreted that the release from grain-boundary would be dominated during this step. The high release fraction of the fission gas from an oxidized powder during the OREOX process would be due to increase both in the gas diffusion at a temperature of $500^{\circ}C$ in a reduction step and in U atom mobility by the reduction. Therefore, it is believed that the fission gases release inventories in the OREOX step come from the inter-grain and inter-grain on $UO_2$ matrix. It is shown that the release fraction of $^{85}Kr\;and\;^{14}C$ fission gases during the voloxidation step would be increased as fuel burn-up increases, ranging from 6 to 12%, and a residual fission gas would completely be removed during the OREOX step. It seems that more effective treatment conditions for a removal of volatile fission gas are of powder formation by the oxidation in advance than the reduction of spent fuel at the higher temperature.

Internal gas composition of single unit persimmon package was evaluated at $-1^{\circ}C$ as function of package film area and fruit weight in order to find packaging conditions to achieve the optimal modified atmosphere beneficial for keeping the freshness. With large fruit size(${\approx}230\;g$), low permeable films (LLDPE/PP in 35 or $40\;{\mu}m$ thickness and $30\;{\mu}m$ OPP) with an exact fitness to the fruit (surface area of $0.040\;m^2$) resulted in anaerobic atmosphere with occurrence of browning in long term storage. With medium (${\approx}210\;g$) and medium small (${\approx}190g$) sizes, larger surface area of low permeable $35\;{\mu}m$ LLDPE/PP film provided higher $O_2$ and lower $CO_2$ concentrations causing higher occurrence of softening and blackening discoloration. On the other hand, smaller surface area of lower $O_2$ and higher $CO_2$ concentrations had a high risk of browning. Wise combination of fruit size, packaging film and surface area is required for attaining the beneficial modified atmosphere to prevent the physiological injuries.

Low density polyethylene (LDPE) films incorporated with 1% antimicrobial agents of Rheum palmatum extract, Coptis chinensis extract, and Ag-substituted inorganic zirconium matrix, were applied to modified atmosphere packaging of 200 g fresh strawberries. Plain LDPE film package, PVC wrap and perforative pinhole package of the film impregnated with 1% Rheum palmatum extract were also constructed for comparative purpose. All the packages were stored for 13 days at $5^{\circ}C$ and measured in package atmosphere, microbial count and quality attributes of the strawberry fruits. The antimicrobial LDPE films retarded the growth in total aerobic bacteria, lactic acid bacteria and yeast on the fruits, and resulted in significantly lower decay. The degrees of reduced microbial growth and fruit decay in the antimicrobial film packages were more pronounced, when applied by hermetical sealing to produce the modified atmospheres of low $O_2$ (<4.0%) and $CO_2$ concentrations with $6.3{\sim}9.0%$. The hermetically sealed packages of antimicrobial LDPE films also showed better retention of fruit firmness and did not give any negative effect on the physical and chemical qualities of strawberries.

Poly(ether-block-amide) 1657 (PEBAX 1657) blended membranes with molecular weight 400 poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG 400) were prepared and their permeability was tested for the gases $N_2$, $O_2$, $CH_4$, $CO_2$, and $SO_2$ by the time-lag method. The permeation characteristics were investigated in terms of diffusivity and solubility, which are dominant factors for gas transport. With the addition of PEG 400, the permeability of all the gases increased and also the ideal selectivity for several pair gases was enhanced. In particular, selectivity for $CO_2/N_2$ ranged from 53.2 (pristine PEBAX 1657 membrane) to 84.1 (50% PEG 400 added), for $SO_2/CO_2$ from 38.9 to 50.7, and for $CO_2/CH_4$ from 17.7 to 31.4. The increase of both permeability and selectivity is mainly because of the increase of solubility of the gases, especially $CO_2$ and $SO_2$. To obtain durability against water vapor, glutaraldehyde (GA) was added to the PEBAX 1657/PEG 400 blended membranes. As a result, permeability decreased owing to a reduction of the free volume and ether oxide units, which are the main factors in elevating the permeability for the blended membranes, and selectivity decrease however; we believe that the durability of the resulting membranes would be increased.

The performance of computer systems and the development of various computer simulation programs have made it possible to analyze chemical systems composed of more complex elements, and accordingly, research using molecular dynamics simulation is being actively conducted. Research on calculating the gas permeation characteristics of polymer membranes by molecular dynamics, which was previously conducted mainly through experiments, is receiving attention for gas barrier membranes used in food packaging and pharmaceuticals. Recently, there has been a report that a gas barrier effect appears when a coating film is made using silk fibroin, and in this study, a study was conducted using molecular dynamics simulation to confirm whether an oxygen barrier effect appears when a composite film is made using silk fibroin. We built a single model, calculated the gas permeation characteristics, and compared it with the experimental value to confirm that the model reflects the actual experimental results. Actual composite membrane models were then built and the gas movement path within the polymer was analyzed. As a result, oxygen molecules were found that they could not pass through and was blocked in the fibroin region. Therefore, the composite membrane with silk fibroin has excellent oxygen barrier property and is expected to be useful in food packaging, etc.

근래, 이산화탄소로 대표되는 온실효과 기체의 증가에 동반하여 대류권의 기온이 정정 상승하는 지구 온난화의 경향이 나타나고 있다. 지구 온난화가 지속되면 해수면온도가 상승하고 그에 따라 해빙 면적의 축소와 해수면 상승이 동반된다. 이와 같은 지구 온난화의 상황이 지속되면 이상기상이 지구상 각지에서 빈발할 것이라는 주장도 제기되고 있다. 이 연구에서는 장기간의 태풍 관련 데이터를 이용하여 지구 온난화와 관련한 태풍의 변화 경향을 분석하였다. 연구 결과 지구 온난화와 더불어 태풍의 발생 수는 감소하고 있으며, 태풍의 세기는 서서히 강화되고 있음을 확인하였다. 그리고 태풍의 이동경로 중에서 정상진로는 증가하는 경향을 보이고 서진형진로는 감소하는 추세를 보이고 있다는 사실을 알았다. 우리나라의 경우는 최근에 들어 통해(또는 일본)를 통과하면서 영향을 미치는 태풍의 수가 증가하는 반면 서해를 통과하는 태풍의 수는 감소하는 경향을 보인다. 그리고 우리나라에 가장 큰 기상재해를 입히는 남해를 통과하는 태풍의 수는 시계열 상 큰 변화를 보이지 않는다.

Shock absorber for rotorcraft landing gear should absorb landing impact during landing and isolate vibration to fuselage during taxiing. Double stage oleo-pneumatic shock absorber is known to have better performances than single stage oleo-pneumatic shock absorber. This paper deals with the z-direction translational acceleration at mass center, roil and pitch angular acceleration of fuselage for single and double stage oleo-pneumatic shock absorber at nose landing gear when a 6DOF rigid model is taxiing on the pound.

실외 환경에서는 일반적으로 드론의 위치 측정 또는 위치 제어를 위해서 위성항법장치를 사용한다. 위성항법장치는 실내 환경에서 신호 수신이 어렵기 때문에 실내에서의 위치 측정과 항법을 수행하기 위해서 많은 연구가 이루어진다. 기존의 연구들은 드론에 추가적인 센서를 요구하거나 사전 실내 환경 설정을 가정한다. 그러나 추가적인 장치나 환경 설정 없이 드론의 관성항법장치만으로도 위치 측정이 가능하다. 관성항법장치는 가속도를 적분하여 이동한 거리를 파악하기 때문에 시간이 지날수록 오차가 누적되는 문제점이 있으며 비행 중 기체 진동으로 인한 측정 오차로 정확한 이동거리를 산출해내는 것이 어렵다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제들을 드론의 특성을 반영하여 관성항법장치로부터 발생한 오차를 줄여 보다 정확한 드론의 실내 위치측정 방법을 제안한다.
