전장에서 임무를 수행하는 항공기의 생존성이 위협을 받음에 따라 항공기의 생존성을 향상시키기 위한 연구의 필요성이 커지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 항공기 Plume IR 신호에 관련된 무인전투기의 생존성을 분석하였다. 항공기의 생존성을 분석하기 위해 먼저 항공기의 IR 탐지거리인 Lock-on Range와 미사일 격추 범위인 Lethal Envelope 개념을 도입하였다. 또한 수직면 기준 분석을 포함하는 지대공 미사일에 대한 Lethal Envelope를 계산하는 기법을 개발하였다. 계산결과 무인전투기의 Red Zone이 고도 위 방향과 아래 방향의 특성 뿐만 아니라 정량적인 Zone 사이즈에서 상당한 차이가 생김을 확인하였다.

An infrared-guided missile has been emerging as a major threat against combat aircraft due to its passive guidance characteristics and with recent advances in stealth technology. Hence, the infrared stealth technology and its effectiveness-evaluation technique become more significant than ever before. In this study, we applied missile aerodynamics to lethal range calculation which allowed more precise prediction. CFD analyses were newly involved in estimating drag force characteristics of an infrared-guided missile. Velocity profiles during flight period of the missile were constructed utilizing these drag characteristics and then incorporated into our in-house code to predict corresponding lethal ranges. The results showed that the present method can predict lethal range more appropriately than the previous one with constant velocity profile. As one of the results, if a fighter gains altitude more which reduces less drag of the attacking missile, then the lethal envelope increases significantly more compared to the lock-on envelope.

The tea looper caterpillar, Ectropis obliqua, is one of the major pests of tea bushes. E. obliqua single-nucleocapsid nucleopolyhedrovirus (EcobSNPV) has been used as a commercial pesticide for biocontrol of this insect. However only limited genetic analysis for this important virus has been done up to now. EcobSNPV was characterized in this study. Electron microscopy analysis of the occlusion body showed polyhedra of 0.7 to $1.7\;{\mu}m$ in diameter containing a single nucleocapsid per envelope of the virion. A 15.5 kb genomic fragment containing EcoRI-L, EcoRI-N and HindIII-F fragments, was sequenced. Analysis of the sequence revealed that the fragment contained eleven potential open reading frames (ORFs): lef-1, egt, 38.7k, rrl, polyhedrin, orfl629, pk-1, hoar and homologues to Spodoptera exigua multicapsid NPV (SeMNPV) ORFs 15, 28, and 29. Gene arrangement and phylogeny analysis suggest that EcobSNPV is closely related to the previously described Group II NPV. Bioassays on lethal concentration $(LC_{50}\;and\;LC_{90})$ and lethal time $(LT_{50}\;and\;LT({90})$ were conducted to test the susceptibility of E. obliqua larvae to the virus.

표적 대상 항공기의 적외선 lock-on range는 항공기의 생존성을 결정하는데 있어 중요한 요소이다. 본 연구에서는 무인항공기의 엔진 노즐 형상이 lock-on range에 미치는 영향에 관한 이론적 연구를 수행하였다. 이를 위해 가상 아음속 항공기의 임무 요구조건과 엔진 성능분석을 통한 형상 변형노즐을 고려하였다. 먼저 열유동장과 노즐 표면 온도분포를 해석한 다음, 적외선 신호 해석을 수행하였다. 또한 대기전파 모델인 LOWTRAN 코드를 이용하여 고도와 계절변화에 따른 대기투과율을 계산하였다. IR 유도 미사일의 센서 특성값을 가정하여 여러 노즐형상에 대한 lock-on 및 lethal envelope 계산을 수행하였다. 높은 세장비를 갖는 변형노즐의 경우 최대 55.3%의 lock-on range 감소가 가능한 것으로 나타났다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the characteristics of Mamestra brassicae nucleopolyhedrovirus (MabrNPV)-K1 isolated in Korea. Polyhedra of MabrNPV-K1 showed irregular appearance in shape with the average diameter $1.8{\mu}m$. MabrNPV-K1 contained a number of nucleocapsids within a viral envelope embedded in polyhedron. The polyhedrin of MabrNPV-K1 was composed of single polypeptide with a M.W. of approximate 31 kDa which is identical to the commercialized MabrNPV, Mamestrin, as a biological control agent. The nucleotide and amino acid sequences within the coding region of MabrNPV-K1 polyhedrin shared 99.0% similarity with the polyhedrin gene from previous reported MabrNPVs. The median lethal concentrations ($LC_{50}$) of MabrNPV-K1 and Mamestrin to M. brassicae larvae were $3.9{\times}10^3$ PIBs/larva and $6.0{\times}10^4$ PIBs/larva, respectively. Mortality of the MabrNPV-K1 against to the third instars larvae was 15 times higher than that of the Mamestrin. The median lethal times ($LT_{50})$ of MabrNPV-K1 by the concentration of polyhedra were lower ($4.4{\sim}6.1$ days) than those of Mamestrin ($4.1{\sim}8.6$ days). These results suggest that a local strain MabrNPV-K1 has high pathogenicity to M. brassicae and may be useful for the development of biological control agent to control this.

Pasteurella multocida is a terrible veterinary pathogen that causes widespread infections in husbandry. To induce homologous and/or heterologous immunity against the infections, outer membrane protein Hs (OmpH) in the envelope of different strains of P. multocida are thought to be attractive vaccine candidates. Previously we cloned and characterized a gene for OmpH from pathogenic P. multocida (A : 3) (In Press, Korean J. Microbiol. Biotechnol. 2005, 33, December). The gene is composed of 1,047 nucleotides (nt) coding 348 amino acids (aa) with signal peptide of 20 aa. The truncated ompH, a gene without nt coding for the signal peptide, was generated using pRSET A to name "pRSET A/OmpH-F2". This truncated ompH was well expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3). Truncated OmpH was purified for induction of immunity against live pathogen of fowl cholera (P. multocida A : 3) in mice. Some $50{\mu}g$ of the purified polypeptide was intraperitoneally injected into mice two times with 10 day interval. Lethal dose ($25{\mu}l$) of live P. multocida A : 3 was determined by directly injecting the pathogen into wild mice (n = 25). To demonstrate the vaccine candidate of the truncated OmpH, the live pathogen ($25{\mu}l$) was challenged with the OmpH-immunized mouse group as well as positive & negative controls (n = 80). The results show that the truncated OmpH can be used for an effective vaccine production to prevent fowl cholera caused by pathogenic P. multocida (A : 3).
