  • 'Navigable airspace' means an airspace at and above the minimum safe flight level, including airspace or flight procedures needed for safe takeoff and landing. Airspace may be established as needed and may be abolished, and in some cases may be limited to airspace management. These are absolutely based on risk assessment. Safety is the state in which the risk of harm to persons or of property damage is reduced to, and maintained at or below, an acceptable level through a continuing process of hazard identification and risk management. 'Risk' is the assessed potential for adverse consequences resulting from a hazard and 'Risk assessment' involves consideration of both the frequency and the severity of any adverse consequence. This paper proposed 'risk assessment procedure' for the structural changes of Navigable Airspaces through literature reviews relevant to manuals on airspace management and risk management.

  • As recent buildings often use low-quality concrete materials, are constructed defectively, and are put in extreme environmental conditions, many of them show the shortening of life resulting from the corrosion of reinforcing rods by salt damage, carbonization, freezing and thawing, cracking. This in turn raises the cost of repair and maintenance, so it is required to extend the life of structures through enhancing the durability of concrete. In response to the demand, researches on high-durability concrete are being made actively focused on the maximum water-cement ratio, the maximum unit quantity, the minimum cover thickness, the addition of mineral admixtures, etc. With this background, the present study examined the basic physical properties of concrete containing admixtures for enhancing the durability of concrete.

  • The quasi-phase matching (QPM) technique has dramatically changed the guidelines in developing nonlinear optical materials, which doesn't require birefringence and off-diagonal components for efficient wavelength conversion. Minimum requirement for QPM is the modulation of nonlinearity and ferroelectric materials with low coercive field has become fascinating in periodical poling. Stoichiometric lithium tantalate (SLT) has attractive advantages of low coercive field (∼l .5 KV/mm), high nonlinearity, high optical damage resistance and low thermo-optic coefficients, leading to a large aperture QPM devices for high power operation.

  • Dynamic compaction is the ground improvement method by applying the impact energy. This impact energy can damage to adjacent structure in urban area. Therefore, if dynamic compaction method is applied, careful attention should be payed to surrounded structures. In this study, the method was performed in waste landfill and the frequency of vibrations were measured according to each distances, drop-heights, and vibrating directions. The measured data show that particle velocity bas low frequency and it is greatest in longitudinal direction. There was little differences between Maynes suggestion and measured data. Therefore, Maynes suggestion can be adopted if the range of vibration can be predicted. Also, It was found that minimum 45m distance is needed in order to satisfy the administrative code if dynamic compaction method is applied.

  • An operationally secure power system is one low probability of blackout or equipment damage. The power system is needed to maintain a designated security level at minimum operating cost. The inclusions of security make power system problem complex. But, because security and optimality are normally conflicting requirement, the separate treatments of both are inappropriate. So, a unified hierarchical formulation is needed. In this paper, the overview of security constrained optimal power flow (SCOPF) is presented and an introduction of parallel distributed formulation to SCOPF is also presented.

  • The paper presents the field investigations and seismic analyses of a historical masonry brick minaret damaged during October 23 (Erciş) and November 9 (Edremit), 2011 Van earthquakes in Turkey. Ulu Mosque Minaret located on Tebriz Kap1 Street in the city centre of Van, Turkey is selected for investigation. Two earthquakes hit the minaret within seventeen days, causing progressive damage. It was seen from the field investigations that the minaret was heavily damaged. To validate the field investigations, three dimensional finite element model of the minaret is constituted by ANSYS software using relievo drawings. Finite element model of the minaret is analyzed under the Van earthquake records to determine the seismic behavior. The displacements, maximum and minimum principal stresses and strains are obtained from the analyses and compared with field observations.

  • Recall aims to remove the products hazardous to consumers or users from the commerce. However, a recall with a poor decision making procedure could results in disaster to corporations. Therefore, recall managers should establish a proper recall plan in advance to minimize the damage to business. The purpose of the study is to propose a computerized recall management system(RMSys) to handle recall process systematically and timely manners. RMSys, a recall decision-making procedures software, consists of two different modules such as recall decision-making module and recall procedure module. RMSys on the basis of the world wide web is designed to be compatible to ERP(Enterprise Resources Panning). RMSys could play a role as a management support system to help the corporations recall the hazardous products with minimum efforts.

  • Disassembly of products at their end-of-life (EOL) is a prerequisite for recycling or remanufacturing, since most products should be disassembled before being recycled or remanufactured as secondary parts or materials. In disassembly sequence planning of EOL products, considered are the uncertainty issues, i.e., defective parts or joints in an incoming product, disassembly damage, and imprecise net profits and costs. The paper deals with the problem of determining the disassembly level and corresponding sequence, with the objective of maximizing the overall profit under uncertainties in disassembly cost and/or revenue. The solution is represented as the longest path on a directed acyclic graph where parameter (arc length) uncertainties are modeled in the form of intervals. And, a heuristic algorithm is developed to find a path with the minimum worst case regret, since the problem is NP-hard. Computational experiments are carried out to show the performance of the proposed algorithm compared with the mixed integer programming model and Conde's heuristic algorithm.

  • Construction project is necessary element for human life to upgrade the quality and convenience. However, due to its contradictory nature to the environment preservation, environmental pollution and damage, deterioration of natural scenery, noise/vibration, water quality pollution, etc. caused in the process of construction greatly affect the environment. For the building or construction project, its possible impact on environment during construction work and after completion must be predicted at its design phase, which will result in the completion of the architecture convenient for human being with its environmental pollution reduced to minimum level. In this study, the checklist of environmental factors was suggested, which should be taken into account at its design phase in conducting the construction work. Proposed checklist was linked with the developed web-based system for the convenience of users like designer and construction manager, etc. It is expected that the checklist suggested by this study will help the designer and construction manager to continue the steady development from the environmental viewpoint during the design phase.

  • Medicinal plant extracts including Rubus coreanus, Sanguisorba officinalis, Eriobotrya japonica, Prunus mume, Crataegus pinnatifida, Rosa leavaigate Prunus persica, Prunus japonica var. nakaii and Spiraea blumei were prepared for the test of antibacterial activity. Tryptic soy broth (TSB) containing $0{\sim}10mg/ml$ of medicinal plant extracts was inoculated with $10^6$ cells/ml of Staphylococcus aureus and incubated at $35^{\circ}C$ for 24 hours. The plate counting method and clear zone test were used to test inhibitory effect of the extracts. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) was derived from the survival curves of S. aureus. The order of antibacterial activities of medicinal plant extracts on the S. aureus was Rubus coreanus > Sanguisorba officinalis > Eriobotrya japonica > Prunus mume > Crataegus pinnatfida. Minimum inhibitory concentration of Sanguisorba ofEcmalis on the Staphylococcus aureus was 2.5mg/ml and minimum bactericidal concentration of Rubus coreanus was 1.0%. Inhibition zone of Rubus coreanus, Sanguisorba officinalis, Eriobotrya japonica, Prunus mume, and Crataegus pinnatifida was 16.5mm, 14.3mm 11.0mm, 14.0mm and 12.7mm, respectively. The morphology of S. aureus cells treated with medicinal plant extracts showed damage of cell wall and cytoplasmic membrane. Severely damaged cells of S. aureus lost electron dense material and cytoplasm. This result suggests that medicinal plant extracts can be used as an effective natural antibacterial agent in food.
