The combustion chamber and nozzle of an end burning, small spherical rocket is designed. A spherical external shape has a number of advantages such as fixed center-of-gravity and minimum aerodynamic precession torques during flight and a better mass distribution for gyro-stabilization as contrasted to a conventional ogive rocket shape. It is shown that the cross-sectional variation of the end burning solid propellant with length is an exponential geometry to provide a constant thrust-weight ratio of the rocket device during the propellant burning period, and that the factors which affect the attainment of the constant relationship of thrust to weight in the design are the initial propellant area, initial weight of the rocket and propellant density. The measurement of the transient thrust in the ground static test using black powder propellant supports the predicted results. A wind tunnel having a $30{\times}30{\times}75cm$ test section and Mach number 0.11 is constructed, and a simple balance-type device is designed for the measurement of the drag of a spinning sphere. The experimental results indicate that the. spinning has no effect on the magnitude of the drag up to the Reynolds number $3{\times}10^5$. Numerical computation of the flight trajectories for various launching angles is presented, and the gyro-stabilization of spinning sphere is discussed.

A study was conducted to investigate an optimal vibration frequency for mobile phones with just noticeable difference(JND). The just noticeable difference, Weber's law, is the minimum amount by which stimulus intensity must be changed in order to produce a noticeable variation in sensory experience. In order to find the optimal vibration frequency, sixteen frequencies ranged from 24Hz to 603Hz were selected. Subjects then wereasked to differentiate a pair of vibration frequencies. For the analysis, the psychometric function to determine the optimal vibration frequency and the logistic regression to validate the determined frequency were used. The results show that the 2nd order polynomial equations were best fitted for the JND psychometric function and the optimal mobile phone vibrations were determined at 140Hz, 151 Hz, and 160Hz. With the ogive-shaped psychometric function developed by the logistic regression, the results of this study was validated that the determined vibration frequencies (140Hz, 151 Hz, and 160Hz) were optimal mobile phone vibration frequencies.

Cavitating flow simulation is of practical importance for many hydraulic engineering systems, such as pump, turbine, nozzle, injector, etc. In the present work, a solver for cavitating flow has been developed and applied to simulate the flows past axisymmetric cylinders. Governing equations are the two-phase Navier-Stokes equations, comprised of continuity equation of liquid and vapor phase. The momentum equation is in the mixture phase. The solver employed an implicit, dual time, preconditioned algorithm in curvilinear coordinates. Computations were carried out for three axisymmetric cylinders: hemispherical, ogive, and caliber-0 forebody shape. Then, the present calculations were compared with experiments and other numerical results to validate the present solver. Also, the code has shown its capability to accurately simulate the re-entrant jet phenomena and ventilated cavitation. Hence, it has been found that the present numerical code has successfully accounted for cavitating flows past axisymmetric cylinders.

Determination of the precise size at sexual maturity is very important for science-based stock assessment and fisheries resource management. In this study, two different models, (1) a visual method and (2) a gonadosomatic index (GSI) method, were employed to estimate length at sexual maturity of the small yellow croaker Larimichthys polyactis in the Yellow Sea of Korea. The visual method is a common qualitative method using visual gonadal identification. Conversely, the GSI method is a quantitative method using the GSI, which can be easily and precisely collected. We compared results from these methods to determine the best approach, and to examine the practicality of the GSI method. Logistic regression of the maturity ogive was conducted using a general linear model (GLM) with the R statistics program. Also, the bootstrapped 95% confidence intervals of all estimates were calculated. The best-fit model was the visual method (R_Mc²=0.805, AUC=0.989, L₅₀=15.1). Among models using the GSI method, the model computing GSI_ref=0.94 was the best-fit model (R_Mc²=0.792, AUC=0.989, L₅₀=15.2). There was no significant difference between the two models, evidencing the effectiveness and accuracy of the GSI method.

The aim of this article is to analyze the relationship between the change of the diversity of the industrial structure, and regional employmentability and the intensification of regional competitiveness, and consequently, is to present policy implications. As a result of the analysis of the whole industry such as the primary, secondary and tertiary industry in Chungnam Province, the existing strategic implementation on the employmentability and regional competitiveness throughout the policy on the existing specialized industries can be regarded as appropriate. However, under the condition that danger and stability in each industry are fluctuated and the internal and external circumstances are varied, the detailed analysis and rapid policy prescription on the primary and tertiary industry are required. Along with these results, policy implications are as follows; Firstly, in terms of effectiveness, regional policy are simultaneously conducted along with industrial, technological and regional development's policies while consider ing complex and comprehensive characteristics of the regional industry and rapid changing the global market conditions. Secondly, with respect to equity, regional policy is needed to implement by reducing the socio-economic gap across regions and mixing regional and sectoral policies along with regional and local uniqueness.
