The hypersonic glide vehicle ascends to a high altitude by a rocket booster, separates it from the booster, and glides at a hypersonic speed of Mach 5 or higher at an altitude of about 30~70 km, changing its direction in the atmosphere. Since it moves on an unpredictable flight path rather than a parabolic trajectory, it is difficult to intercept with current missile defense systems. The U.S. conducted HTV-2 and AHW flight tests in the early 2010s to confirm the possibility of hypersonic gliding flights, and recently it has been developing hypersonic glide vehicle systems such as LRHW and ARRW. China has conducted several flight tests of the DF-ZF (WU-14) glide vehicle since 2014 and has been operating it with DF-17 missiles. Russia has conducted hypersonic glide vehicle research since the former Soviet Union, but it has repeatedly failed, and recently it has been successfully tested with the Avangard (Yu-71) glide vehicle mounted on the SS-19 ICBM. In this paper, the characteristics, flight test cases, and development trends of hypersonic glide vehicles developed or currently being developed in the United States, China, Russia, Japan, India, and Europe are reviewed and summarized.

Albatross uses dynamic soaring technique to obtain energy from horizontal winds and fly long distances without flapping. These dynamic soaring technique can be applied to manned/unmanned aircraft to reduce the components required for the aircraft and achieve light weight and small volume to effectively perform a given task. In this paper, to simulate the dynamic soaring technique of Albatross, we defined the optimization problem and set each boundary condition to derive the optimal flight trajectory and carry out simulations to follow it. In particular, to model dynamic soaring simulations more closely with reality, we proposed a horizontal wind model that changes every moment. This identifies and analyzes the effect of the time-variable horizontal wind model on the dynamic soaring mission of unmanned aircraft.

In this paper, the operational concept and the navigation algorithms for the gliding guided artillery munition are studied. The gliding guided artillery munition has wings for gliding; therefore spin of the munition should be eliminated. The previous navigation algorithms assumed a spinning munition with constant angular velocity; hence, they cannot be applied for the gliding munition. Moreover, lateral stability becomes worse due to decrease of angular momentum. Therefore, side force should be controlled to improve the stability, and the munition should maneuver, then the previous navigation algorithms for typical fixed-wing aircraft cannot be applied. In this paper, we apply the previous navigation algorithms for the spinning munition. Spin is eliminated and wings are deployed based on the estimation results, and the advanced navigation algorithm for the non-spinning munition is introduced.

In this paper, the guidance laws and controllers for the gliding guided artillery munition is studied. The gliding guided artillery munition has wings for gliding to increase a range; therefore previous guidance laws and controllers for the guided munition could not be applied. Concepts of vector field guidance and proportional navigation guidance are applied for mid-term and terminal guidance, respectively. The gliding guided artillery munition is operated within wide altitude and speed areas; therefore, the controllers are designed for each area, and gain-scheduling and the linear interpolation technique is applied to compute the appropriate gains.

In this study aerodynamic characteristics of guided gliding type ammunition were investigated by using a computational analysis and wind tunnel test. Missile DATCOM, a semi-empirical method, and a FLUENT, a computational fluid dynamics analysis program, were used for computational analysis. For a guided gliding type ammunition, aerodynamic characteristics were investigated by calculating lift force, drag force, pitching moment and etc. Aerodynamic characteristics of guided gliding type ammunition are completely different from those of conventional ammunition. The results obtained from the computer analysis are similar to those obtained from the wind tunnel test. Although the pitch moment values obtained by the semi-empirical method were slightly different from the wind tunnel test results, the overall computer analysis results showed trends and values similar to the test results. In this study, aerodynamic characteristics of guided gliding type ammunition were identified and it found that semi-empirical method can be applied to analyze the aerodynamic characteristic in the initial design of guided gliding ammunition.

Various combinations of cartridge and orifice were applied for ground ejection tests of a gliding bomb model equipped with a new guidance kit. Larger diameter of orifice made larger ejection force at each of bomb racks. Normal operations of the wing deploying mechanism and the devices inside of the bomb model were confirmed. Also high speed video data showed that pitch angle of the gliding bomb varied due to the ejection force.

This paper explains how existing electrical ADU(Antenna Distribution Unit) has been improved into a mechanical ADU. Generally the mechanical ADU has stabilized Glide Path which provides a RF signal to the aircraft for safe landing and it has solved the issue of phase shift and power distribution ratio change which can be occurred during long-term use. Besides it has been certified by Flight check and operating several airports in oversea as well as in korea.

본 연구에서는 자활근로사업과 자활공동체사업 참여자를 대상으로 자립의지, 자아존중감, 사회자본 정도와 자활사업 참여집단간의 차이를 분석하고자 한다. 또한 자활근로사업과 자활공동체사업 참여자의 자립의지에 영향을 미치는 개인적 특성요인과 사회자본의 영향력을 비교 분석하고자 한다. 분석결과, 자활근로사업 참여자의 자립의지에 대한 회귀분석 결과, 연령대(B=.228), 건강상태(B=.097), 자아존중감(B=.233), 사회자본(B=.184)이 유의미한 영향을 미치는 것으로 분석되었다. 그러나 자활공동체 참여자의 자립의지에는 유의미한 변수가 나타나지 않았다.
