Background: Hydrogen sulfide is a toxic substance that humans can be exposed to occupationally, and cases of hydrogen sulfide poisoning of workers in industrial sites are commonly reported. However, there have been no cases of poisoning of the public due to an unauthorized discharge of wastewater, so it is important to describe this incident. Case presentation: In a small village in Jeollanam-do, Republic of Korea, accounts of a terrible stench had been reported. A 26-year-old man who lived and worked in a foul-smelling area was taken to the emergency room with a headache, dizziness, nausea, and repeated syncope. A subsequent police and Ministry of Environment investigation determined that the cause of the stench was the unauthorized discharge of 9 tons of wastewater containing hydrogen sulfide through a stormwater pipe while the villagers were sleeping. The patient had no previous medical history or experience of symptoms. Leukocytes and cardiac markers were elevated, an electrocardiogram indicated biatrial enlargement, left ventricular hypertrophy, and corrected QT interval prolongation. Myocardial hypertrophy was detected on a chest computed tomography scan, and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy was confirmed on echocardiography. After hospitalization, cardiac marker concentrations declined, symptoms improved, and the patient was discharged after 7 days of hospitalization. There was no recurrence of symptoms after discharge. Conclusions: We suspect that previously unrecognized heart disease manifested or was aggravated in this patient due to exposure to hydrogen sulfide. Attention should be paid to the possibility of unauthorized discharge of hydrogen sulfide, etc., in occasional local incidents and damage to public health. In the event of such an accident, it is necessary to have government guidelines in place to investigate health impact and follow-up clinical management of exposed residents.

학교폭력이 심각해짐에 따라 학교차원에서 이를 효과적으로 대응하기 위해서 학교폭력 대책자치위원회를 설치하였지만, 이 위원회가 효과적으로 그 기능을 수행하고 있는가에 대한 경험적 연구는 그리 많지 않다. 기존의 연구는 대부분 교사의 입장에서 자치위원회를 바라보는 인식들을 주로 조사하였고, 자치위원회의 주요 구성원 중 한 명인 학교전담경찰관이 느끼는 인식에 대한 연구는 전무하다. 따라서 이 연구는 학교전담경찰관을 대상으로 자치위원회의 기능에 대한 만족도, 인적구성의 적합성, 학교폭력에 대응하는 학교장에 대한 인식을 설문조사하였다. 연구의 참여자는 수도권과 비수도권을 포함하는 4개 지방경찰청(서울, 경기, 부산, 울산)에 소속된 학교전담경찰관으로 구성되었고, 자기기입식 방법을 통해 정형화된 문항과 개방형 문항에 대해 응답을 요청하였다. 자료의 분석 결과, 학교전담경찰관들은 자치위원회가 학교폭력 피해자의 보호와 구제에 대해서 상대적으로 그 기능이 미흡한 것으로 인식하였고, 인적 구성에 대해서는 학부모의 참여를 어느 정도 제한하고, 외부 위원의 참여가 보다 확대되어야 한다고 응답하였다. 또한, 학교장이 학교폭력에 대해 보다 엄중하게 대응할 필요가 있다고 인식하고 있었다. 이 결과를 바탕으로 자치위원회 참여위원의 전문성을 제고하고 관련 규정을 개정하기 위한 논의가 제시되었다.

In smart grid, privacy implications to individuals and their families are an important issue because of the fine-grained usage data collection. Wireless communications are utilized by many utility companies to obtain information. Network coding is exploited in smart grids, to enhance network performance in terms of throughput, delay, robustness, and energy consumption. However, random linear network coding introduces a new challenge for privacy preserving due to the encoding of data and updating of coefficients in forwarder nodes. We propose a distributed privacy preserving scheme for random linear network coding in smart grid that considers the converged flows character of the smart grid and exploits a homomorphic encryption function to decrease the complexities in the forwarder node. It offers a data confidentiality privacy preserving feature, which can efficiently thwart traffic analysis. The data of the packet is encrypted and the tag of the packet is encrypted by a homomorphic encryption function. The forwarder node random linearly codes the encrypted data and directly processes the cryptotext tags based on the homomorphism feature. Extensive security analysis and performance evaluations demonstrate the validity and efficiency of the proposed scheme.

New 5-digit zone code (new postcode) will replace the current 6-digit postcode which has been used for postal automation in 2014. New postcode will be used for processing various works to distinguish location and area in the entire country. For example, it new postcode will be used to denote different administration areas, firefighting and police jurisdiction, weather forecast areas, emergency medical facility areas, social welfare institution areas, election districts, school districts, statistical areas, courier and delivery business areas, and etc. Therefore, the relevant authorities must be cosider for the feasibility and applicability of assigning the new postcode. In postal service, postal process will be affected a lot by new postcode because a postcode has been related with delivery area of a postman. Therefore, we propose assignment scheme for new postcode which will impact less to postal process. Then, we present how we used geographic data for efficient assignment and analysis of the results.

현재 실용화된 국내 문법 검사기는 경험적으로 구축된 오류 결정 규칙을 이용해 주위의 문맥을 보고 문법 오류를 판단하는 문맥 의존 오류를 처리하고 있다. 그러나 기존 문법 검사기의 오류 결정 규칙은 어휘 수준으로 구축되어 있어 검사기의 재현율이 낮다. 따라서 어휘대신 어휘 범주 정보를 사용하여 오류 결정 규칙을 일반화할 필요가 있다. 본 논문에서는 검사단어가 용언일 때 선택 제약 명사의 의미 범주를 국내에서 개발된 어휘의미망 KorLex에서 TCM과 MDL을 이용해 추출하고 추출된 의미 범주를 이용해 용언의 오류 결정 규칙을 일반화하는 방법을 제안한다.

This paper presents a method for measuring the shaft power of a marine main engine. Usually, in traditional systems for measuring shaft power, a strain gauge is used even though it has several disadvantages. First, it is difficult to set up the strain gauge on the shaft and acquire the correct signal for analysis. Second, it is very expensive and complicated. For these reasons, we investigated alternative approaches for measuring shaft power and proposed a new method that uses a vision-based measurement system. For this study, templates for image processing and CCD cameras were installed at the both ends of the shaft. Then, in order for the cameras to capture the images synchronously, we used a trigger mark and a optical sensor. The position of each template between the first and the second camera images were compared to calculate the torsion angle. The proposed measurement system can be installed more easily than traditional measurement systems and is suitable for any shaft because it does not contact the shaft. With this approach, it is possible to measure the shaft power while a ship is operating.

This study is aimed to design the mechanical gascyclone precipitator with an outstanding collection efficiency as one of ways to reduce exhaust gas of small-scale vessels. It estimated fine particles generated from diesel engines which has become one of the biggest environmental issues currently. Specifically, it quantitatively analyzed the flowing process from the cyclone gas exit; a duct via part to the collecting part of Cylindrical lower using DPIV (Digital Particle Image Velocimetry). Since the gas inlet height part became wider the previous theoretical dimensions, internal fluid characteristics of cyclone where the speed of internal swirl had been slow were investigated by temporary streamline of fine particles at $14-20{\mu}m$. The results showed that collecting efficiency was three times higher than the conical type utilized previously. In addition, this study supplemented imprecision problems from the previous theoretical equation and CFD interpretation with an experimental method. It also provided a basic data to design the cyclone precipitator by size of diesel engines for vessels.

In head sea, a ship has mainly the longitudinal motion such as vertical acceleration and pitch. In that case, the motion characteristics of a ship will have changed as the location different from each of place vertically and horizontally on board. The author carried out an experiment about the ship's vertical acceleration and pitch according to the location for the head sea, and analyzed the data with the aid of the statistical and spectral analyzing method to get the motion characteristics of the vessels. The response of vertical acceleration and pitch not deeply depend on the decks vertically, but displayed the relative big different value horizontally even if same deck. The biggest response of vertical acceleration and pitch among the accommodations was shown at scientist room, but the value of it not reached to the minimum requirement of ISO 2631-1 for working on board.
