Today, automobiles have become an indispensable element in people's lives, and the distribution of vehicles with various autonomous driving functions is expanding. Sensors such as cameras are used to recognize various situations on the road as an essential element for autonomous driving functions, but camera sensors have disadvantages that are vulnerable to bad weather. In this paper, we present a derivation process that defines external weather environment factors that negatively affect the performance of a camera for an autonomous vehicle. Through the proposed process, it is expected that it will contribute to securing the reliability of the camera and further improving the safety of autonomous vehicles.

Today, with the development of the Internet and mobile technology, consumers' purchasing patterns have shifted from offline to online. In addition, due to the recent COVID-19, online purchases have significantly increased, and accordingly, the courier industry for logistics delivery has also grown significantly. Various logistics robots are being operated in many industrial and can reduce the labor intensity and physical and mental fatigue of workers. However, if the logistics robot does not properly recognize the people or environment around it, it can lead to a serious accident. We conducted that how logistics robots can perform safe work in a working environment such as a logistics warehouse through the application of ISO/DIS 21448 (SOTIF) to autonomous logistics transport robots. This result is expected to contribute to the operation of unmanned logistics warehouses using AGV.

Hydrogen is considered a key energy source to achieve carbon neutrality through the global goal of 'Net Zero'. Due to limitations in domestic green hydrogen production, Korean companies are interested in importing green hydrogen produced overseas. Because Australia and the Middle East possess high-quality renewable energy resources, they are attracting attention as suitable regions for producing green hydrogen using renewable energy. The cost of constructing and operating a green ammonia plant varies depending on the region. In this study, an economic feasibility comparison of green ammonia plant construction in Australia and the Middle East is conducted. Through this, it is expected to contribute to the economic analysis and feasibility analysis of the project to import hydrogen in the form of green ammonia into Korea.

Many countries across the world are making efforts beyond reducing CO₂ levels and declaring 'net zero,' which aims to cut greenhouse gas emissions to zero by not emitting any carbon or capturing carbon, by 2050. Hydrogen is considered a key energy source to achieve carbon neutrality goals. Korean companies are also interested in building overseas green ammonia production plants and importing hydrogen into Korea in the form of ammonia. Green hydrogen production uses renewable energy sources such as solar and wind power, but the variability of power production poses challenges in plant design. Therefore, optimization of the configuration of a green ammonia production plant using renewable energy is expected to contribute as basic information for securing the economic feasibility of green ammonia production.

Hydrogen is considered a key energy source to achieve carbon neutrality through the global goal of 'net zero'. Due to limitations in producing green hydrogen domestically, Korean companies are interested in importing green hydrogen produced overseas. The Middle East has high-quality solar energy resources and is attracting attention as a region producing green hydrogen using renewable energy. To build a green ammonia plant, optimization of the production facility configuration and economic feasibility analysis are required. It is expected that it will contribute to reviewing the economic feasibility of constructing overseas hydrogen production plants through preliminary economic feasibility analysis.

According to own investigation conducted by Korea Gas Safety Corporation Gas Safety Research Institute in 2017, the length of underground pipes in domestic high-pressure gas pipelines is approximately 770km, of which 84% is buried in Ulsan and Yeosu industrial complexes. In particular, 56% of underground pipelines have been in operation for more than 20 years. This suggests urgent management of buried high pressure gas pipelines. PHMSA in US and EGIG in Europe, major causes of accidents in buried gas pipelines are reported as third party damage, external corrosion and loss of pipe wall thickness. Therefore, it is important to evaluate whether the defects affect the remaining life of the pipe when defects occur in the pipe. DNV and ASME have evaluated the residual strength of pipelines through the hydraulic rupture test using pipe specimens with artifact flaws. Once the operating pressure is known through the residual strength of the pipe, the wall thickness at the point at which the pipe ruptures is calculated. If we know the accurate rate of corrosion growth, we can predict the remaining life of pipe. In the study, we carried out experiments with A53 Grade.B and A106 Grade.B, which account for 80% of domestic buried pipes. In order to modify the existing model equation, specimens with a defect depth of 80% to 90% was tested, and a formula expressing the relationship between defect and residual strength was made.

The flacheric virus(FV) was isolated from the diseased larvae with flaccidity symptoms of the silkworm, Bombyx mori, which were collected in Hyangnam, Kyunggi Province and in Youcheon, Kyungpook Province. The properties of the virus were investigated and compared with the Japanese FV in morphology, size, nucleic acid and structural proteins. The Hyangnam isolate had a diameter of 27$\pm$1, 7nm with speherical shape and contained RNA of which the electrophoretic pattern was same as that of the Japanese FV. The virus had four sturctural proteins and their molecular weight were estimated as 35, 000, 33, 000, 31, 000, and 11, 400 daltons, respectively. The Youcheon isolate had two different sizeds in diameter of 27$\pm$1.7nm and 21$\pm$0.8nm. The antigenicity of the Hyangnam isolate was proved to be identical to that of Japanese FV, whereas the antisera against the Youcheon isolate (mixed with two different sizes) reacted with Japanese FV and densonucleosis virus type 1, respectively. From these characteristic of the isolated viruses, it was concluded that the Hyangnam isolate was identical to the Japanese FV and the Youncheon isolate contained the same viruses as the Japanese FV and DNVI.

In this study, two rectangular barges in close proximity were simulated to analyze the characteristics of motion responses due to hydrodynamic interactions. Using a numerical solution from DNV-GL SESAM, coupled stiffness matrix terms for these same FEM models were added to the multiple body modes in the surge direction. Potential theory was used to calculate the first order radiation and diffraction effects on the simulated barge models. In the results, the sheltering effect of the barges was not shown at 1.3 rad/s with hull separation of 20 m in transverse waves. The separation effect between the barges was more clear with longitudinal waves and a shallow water depth. However, sway forces were influenced by hull separation with transverse waves. The peaks for sway and heave motion and sway force occurred at higher frequencies as hull separation narrowed with longitudinal and transverse waves. Given a depth of 10 m, the sway motion on the lee side of a coupled barge made a significant difference in the range of 0.2-0.8 rad/s with transverse and oblique waves. Also, the peaks for sway force were situated at lower frequencies, even when incident waves changed.

This paper presents the research results of a light weight through topology optimization and structural safety evaluation through structural analysis of a pressure system structure installed in an off-shore plant. Conducting a structure design according to the wind load and the dynamic load at sea in addition to a self-load and structure stability evaluation are very important for structures installed in off-shore plants. In this study, the wind and dynamic load conditions according to the DNV classification rule was applied to the analysis. The topology optimization method was applied to the structure to obtain a lightweight shape. Phase optimization analysis confirmed the stress concentration portion. Topology optimization analysis takes the shape by removing unnecessary elements in the design that have been designed to form a rib shape. Based on the analysis results about the light weight optimal shape, a safety evaluation through structural analysis and suitability of the shape was conducted. This study suggests a design and safety evaluation of an off-shore plant structure that is difficult for structural safety evaluations using an actual test.
