Many researches have been carried out consistently for the green ship owing to its economic increasement, efficiency and convenience. One of them is an electronic controlled marine diesel engine. However, we are suffered from dissemination of above engine, due to its anxiety about safety and reliability. In order to solve these problems in this study, emission characteristics test of main propulsive two-stroke diesel engine, equipped both electronic control and cam drive fuel injection systems, has been performed and evaluated under the various load conditions. From the test results, we have confirmed that exhaust gas emission characteristics of the electronic control system is similar to the cam drive system in eco-mode operation, but NOx in emission mode has been decreased 100ppm or more in full load condition. HC emission from the electronic control system is decreased 10~20ppm at 50% load, and 35~40ppm at 25% load in comparison to cam drive system. In fuel consumption, it is considered that 7g/kWh is decreased than the value of cam drive system at 700bar of injection pressure, which is 200bar higher than cam drive system.

A series of long wave measurements was made in the region of Shikotan Island (the South Kuril Islands) during 1990-1992: 7 bottom pressure stations were installed in 5 bays and inlets of Shikotan and 3 precise microbarographs were situated at the shore. The observations were taken in order to monitor tsunami waves, estimate resonance features of coastal topography, and investigate seiche generation mechanism. It was found that forced long waves dominate in the motions with periods exceeding 2 hours, freely propagating long waves prevail at periods of 30-120 min and eigen-oscillations of bays (seiches) are the predominant type of long waves at periods less than 30 min. The Helmholtz mode with period 30 min in Krabovaya Bay and 18.5 min in Malokurilskaya Bay is the most important type of wave motion in the inner Shikotan basins. There is a good correlation between passages of atmospheric disturbances and generation of seiches near the coast of Shikotan Island. In particular, jumps in atmospheric pressure excite seiches in different bays simultaneously, in each one with the corresponding dominant period. The atmospheric spectra were remarkably smooth and stable, and could be described by a $\omega$$^{-2}$26/ power law.

In this paper. we present a new pitch determination method for speech analysis. namely VFF(Variable Forgetting Factor) based. by using the WRLS-VFF-VT(Weighted Recursive Least Square-Variable Forgetting Factor-Variable Threshold) algorithm. A proposed method uses VFF to identify the glottal closure points which correspond to the instants of the main excitation pulses for voiced speech. The modified EGG

Wind-induced vibration is one of the important structural design factors for serviceability of tall buildings. In order to evaluate the reliable wind-loads and wind induced-vibration, it is necessary to obtain the exact natural period of buildings. The discrepancy in the natural period estimation often results in the overestimation of wind loads. In this study, the effectiveness of lateral stiffness estimation method for tall buildings with flat plate system is evaluated. For this purposed, the results of finite element analysis of three recently constructed buildings are compared with those obtained from field measurement. For the analysis, factors affecting on the lateral resistance such as cracked stiffness of vertical members, elastic modulus of concrete, effective slab width, and cracked stiffness of link beam are considered. Form the results, it is found that the use of non-cracked stiffness and application of dynamic modulus of elasticity rather than initial secant modulus yields closer analysis result to the as-built period.

Long period waves were measured at two stations outside and inside Chukpyon Harbor using two pressure-type wave gauges for one week that covers storm sea period. Based on the collected data the characteristics of long-period resonant oscillations were analysed: the resonant period corresponding to the peak spectral density are slightly different from one to the component wave period with the largest amplification ratio, and the latter period is suggested as that of the first resonant mode. From the analysed field data and numerical modeling, the first resonant mode of Chukpyon Harbor region appeared to be around 12 minutes with amplification ratio of 7, whose amplitude varies 10-20 cm inside of the harbour, and also the second mode appeared to be around 6 minutes. The waves of 2-3 minute periods were resonated apparently in the harbour, which is considered to be generated from group-bounded irregular waves and non-linear wave-wave interaction etc. The linearly decreasing reflection coefficients used in the numerical modeling appeared to be an alternative in calculating reflected waves in harbor.

DOCSIS 3.0 protocol are proposed to support high-speed cable network DOCSIS 3.0 MAC protocol regulates CM and CMTS channel transfer times through MAP message. So MAP Inter-arrival time is primary factor of network performance. However, standards does not include the details of MAP Inter-arrival Time affecting the performance of MAC protocols for DOCSIS 3.0. In this paper, we evaluated the performance of DOCSIS 3.0 protocol follow in MAP Inter-arrival Time. Based on the evaluation results, we propose the optimal MAP Inter-arrival Time. We found that the protocol shows best performance when the MAP Inter-arrival Time is 0.05sec. The research results can apply to performance element which important for the construction of DOCSIS 3.0 base cable networks.

In this paper, a new method for the bridge maintenance is proposed to overcome the limit of the existing methods and to implement the preventive bridge maintenance system. The proposed method can establish the lifetime optimum maintenance strategy of the deteriorating bridges considering the life-cycle performance as well as the life-cycle cost. The lifetime performance of the deteriorating bridges is evaluated by the safety index based on the structural reliability and the condition index detailing the condition state. The life-cycle cost is estimated by considering not only the direct maintenance cost but also the user and failure cost. The genetic algorithm is applied to generate a set of maintenance scenarios which is the multi-objective combinatorial optimization problem related to the life-cycle cost and performance. The study examined the proposed method by establishing a maintenance strategy for the existing bridge and its advantages. The result shows that the proposed method can be effectively applied to deciding the bridge maintenance strategy.

A simple numerical refraction model is presented. The model takes into account refraction, shoaling and bottom dissipation. Eikonal equation and equation of energy conservation are discretized by an explicit finite-difference method, which provides wave angle and height at each grid point, respectively. Applications of the model were made to simple geometries as well as complex geometries, and some advantages on computing time and stability have been observed.

방충재(fender)는 항만에서 선박의 안전한 접이안, 계류, 안벽 보호를 하기 위하여 설치된 중요한 안벽 시설 중 하나이다. 기존의 고무 방충재는 접안력에 의한 초기 변형 28% 정도에서 가장 높은 반력이 발생하기 때문에 선박과 안벽에 지속적인 힘을 주기 때문에 안벽 및 선체에 손상을 주고 있다. 이는 잔교식이나 중력식 부두에서도 나타나는 현상이다. 또 선체의 용접 비드에 의하여 방충재 훼손으로 보수 유지비가 증가하고 안벽에 앵커로 고정된 고무 펜더는 유연성이 떨어져 선박 충격에 의한 쉽게 떨어지고 패널패드도 탈락된다. 이 연구에서는 초기 반력이 적은 에어 펜더 혹은 폼 펜더를 제안한다.
