In the present study, the amount of slow drift motion damping of shuttle tanker in still water and various environments is measured through free decay model test. Although the estimation of slow drift damping is essential in analysing slow drift motion of moored FPSO or DP controlled shuttle tanker, it is difficult to predict damping accurately by theoretical analysis. The estimation of drift damping depends on model test mostly. Through the model test, the amount of slow drift damping is measured and the effects of environments and thruster action on drift damping are investigated. The measured damping characteristics are expected to be used in the analysis on slow drift motion of moored vessel.

This paper proposes a spectral efficient space-frequency(SF) block coded single carrier-frequency division multiple access(SC-FDMA) transmission system in a relaying multi-path shadow area. The cyclic prefix(CP) is not used in the proposed system in order to prevent a loss of spectral efficiency due to the use of CP. The destruction of channel cyclicity due to the lack of CP is recovered at the receivers of relays and a destination station. Simulation results show that the performance of the proposed system without CP is almost same as that of the conventional system with full CP, thus increasing the spectral efficiency.

최근 액정을 주입한 속이 빈 광섬유(Hollow fiber)와 주기적인 전극을 이용하여 전기적으로 제어 가능한 장주기 격자에 대해서 보고된 바 있다. 액정의 중요한 특성 중의 하나는 그 광축이 외부의 전기장에 의해 동적으로 재배열된다는 점이다. 또한 액정은 광축에 따라 굴절률이 다른 비등방성 물질이기 때문에 광축의 배열에 따라, 그리고 입사하는 빛의 편광에 따라 그 빛이 느끼는 굴절률이 달라지게 된다. 본 논문에서는 입사하는 빛의 편광에 따른 액정 장주기 광섬유 격자의 특성에 대해 연구하였다. 주기적인 전극의 길이는 3 cm이고 주기는 500 ${\mu}m$ 이다. 액정을 주입한 속이 빈 광섬유의 길이는 15 mm 이다. 입사하는 빛이 이상(extraordinary) 편광 상태일 때 약 6 dB 의 투과 손실을 나타냈으며 그 대역폭은 약 15 nm 이었다. 이 때 외부에서 인가한 전압은 150 V 였다. 입사하는 빛이 정상(ordinary) 편광 상태일 때에는 액정의 유효 굴절률이 외부 전기장에 대해 변하지 않기 때문에 장주기 투과 특성을 얻을 수 없었다.

This paper analyzes the beef cycle and forecasts the number of Hanwoo. This study uses Sine function for this purpose. Data shows that beef cycle varies from five to twelve years and the cycle becomes longer as time passes. The adjusted $R^2$ of the estimated model is 0.95. The forecasted value based on this model for the number of Hanwoo is 1.6-1.8 million heads in lower bound and 3.2-3.7 million heads in upper bound, where the peak points are slightly different according to cycles. These predicted values imply the instability of number of Hanwoo and corresponding farm income, so we have to prepare adequate policies to cope with it.

The period of a recent streamcipher proposal Edon80 is analyzed. The designers of Edon80 had projected a period of $2^{103}$ Even though this could indeed be the average keystream Period, we show that for a randomly chosen key-IV pair, there exists a non-dismissible probability that the produced keystream will be of relatively short period. More explicitly, a keystream of period. $2^{55}$ may appear with probability $2^{-71}$, and one can show the existence of at least one key-lV pair producing a period $2^{11}$ keystream.

무선 기기의 소형화와 무선 통신 기술의 발달, 그리고 센서의 환경 정보 측정 기술 및 센서 네트워크의 확산으로 홍수, 태풍, 지진, 환경 오염, 등 재난의 피해를 줄이고자 재해 방지 시스템에 대한 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 그리고 이러한 재해는 특정한 시간에 특정 지점에만 발생하는 특징이 있으며, 이 발생 시간을 제외한 나머지 시간대에서는 정상적인 상황을 유지한다. 이와 같은 특성은 센서 네트워크 응용에서 센서의 배터리 전력 유지 및 환경 정보 획득 방법을 설계할 때, 주요한 사안으로 고려되고 있다. 이 논문에서는 센서의 전력소비를 줄이고 대기 오염에 대한 정보를 오염 발생 시간에 따라 적절히 획득하기 위하여, 대기 오염 방지 시스템에서의 센서 샘플링 주기 조정 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 기법은 대기 오염의 현재와 가까운 미래의 상태를 기반으로 센서의 샘플링 주기가 변화하는 규칙과 경계, 가중치를 설정한다. 그리고 매 샘플링 주기마다 센서 데이터 값과 이전에 저장된 오염 레벨을 고려하여 다음 샘플링 주기를 갱신한다. 이렇게 변화하는 샘플링 주기로 인해 대기 오염 감지 시스템은 측정 데이터의 정확도와 센서의 배터리 전력 소비의 균현을 적절히 유지할 수 있다. 제안된 샘플링 주기 기법은 다양한 환경 감시 응용에 활용될 수 있다.

This study applied the statistically significant factors to the short-run model in the existing nonlinear long-run equilibrium relation analysis for the forecasting of maritime economy using the mixed cycle model. The most common univariate AR(1) model and out-of-sample forecasting are compared with the root mean squared forecasting error from the mixed-frequency model, and the prediction power of the mixed-frequency approach is confirmed to be better than the AR(1) model. The empirical results from the analysis suggest that the new approach of high-level mixed frequency model is a useful for forecasting marine industry. It is consistent that the inclusion of more information, such as higher frequency, in the analysis of long-run equilibrium framework is likely to improve the forecasting power of short-run models in multivariate time series analysis.

Objective: To evaluate outcomes of patients with non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) undergoing the testicular sperm extraction (TESE) combined with intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) with different histopathologic subgroups. Method: A total of 122 embryo-transferred TESE/ICSI cycles were compared among NOA subgroups; Germ-cell aplasia (GA, 40 cycles), Maturation arrest (MA, 32 cycles) and severe hypospermatogenesis (S-HS, 50 cycles). Obstructive azoospermia (OA, 667 cycles) patients were served as a control. TESE/ICSI outcomes such as fertilization rate (FR), clinical pregnancy rate (CPR) and live birth rate (LBR) were evaluated. Results: The 2PN FR of embryo-transferred TESE/ICSI cycle was 58.1% in GA, 42.2% in MA and 48.0% in S-HS, which was significantly lower than that of OA (72.9 %, p<0.001). For ICSI-spermatozoa cycles, there were no significant differences in CPR (22.6%, 29.4% and 26.1%) and LBR (16.1%, 29.4% and 19.6%) among NOA subgroups. The CPR of ICSI-spermatid cycles was 0.0%, 9.1% and 0.0% without a live birth. For ICSI-spermatocyte cycles, no clinical pregnancies occurred in any group. Conclusion: There was no significant difference in the FR of embryo-transferred TESE/ICSI cycles among NOA subgroups. The FR among all NOA subgroups was significantly lower than that of OA. Testicular histopathology in NOA did not affect successful pregnancy if spermatozoa extraction from the testis is successful and embryo transfer is possible.

In this paper, we propose a real-time sensor node platform that guarantees the real-time scheduling of periodic and aperiodic tasks through a multitask-based software decomposition technique. Since existing sensor networking operation systems available in literature are not capable of supporting the real-time scheduling of periodic and aperiodic tasks, the preemption of aperiodic task with high priority can block periodic tasks, and so periodic tasks are likely to miss their deadlines. This paper presents a comprehensive evaluation of how to structure periodic or aperiodic task decomposition in real-time sensor-networking platforms as regard to guaranteeing the deadlines of all the periodic tasks and aiming to providing aperiodic tasks with average good response time. A case study based on real system experiments is conducted to illustrate the application and efficiency of the multitask-based dynamic component execution environment in the sensor node equipped with a low-power 8-bit microcontroller, an IEEE802.15.4 compliant 2.4GHz RF transceiver, and several sensors. It shows that our periodic and aperiodic task decomposition technique yields efficient performance in terms of three significant, objective goals: deadline miss ratio of periodic tasks, average response time of aperiodic tasks, and processor utilization of periodic and aperiodic tasks.

A reliability analysis model f3r studying the influence of joint distribution of wave heights and periods on wave un-up is presented in this paper. From the definition of failure mode related to wave run-up, a reliability function may be formulated which can be considered uncertainties of water level. In particular, the reliability analysis model can be directly taken into account statistical properties and distributions of wave periods by considering wave period in the reliability function to be a random variable. Also, variations of wave height distribution conditioned to mean wave periods can be taken into account correctly. By comparison of results of additional reliability analysis using extreme distributions with those resulted from joint distribution of wave height and periods, it is found that probabilities of failure evaluated by the latter is larger than those by the former. Although the freeboard of sloped-breakwater structures can be determined by extreme distribution based on the long-term measurements, it may be necessary to investigate additionally into wave run-up by using the present reliability analysis model formulated to consider joint distribution of a single storm event. In addition, it may be found that the effect of spectral bandwidth parameter on reliability index may be little, but the effect of wave height distribution conditioned to mean wave periods is straightforward. Therefore, it may be confirmed that effects of wave periods on the probability of failure of wave run-up may be taken into account through the conditional distribution of wave heights. Finally, the probabilities of failure with respect to freeboard of sloped-breakwater structures can be estimated by which the rational determination of crest level of sloped-breakwater structures may be possible.
