To neutralize fast Anti-Tank Guided Missiles(ATGMs) or Anti-Tank Rockets(ATRs) projected at short ranges, the trajectories and times that the threats arrive at hard-kill systems should be predicted precisely. The trajectories of ATGMs or ATRs are almost stationary but the velocity and acceleration are very changeable in the terminal stage, so that it is needed to predict the characteristics of ATGMs and ATRs for filtering. In this paper the Fuzzy Rule based Adaptive Kalman Filter(FRAKF) is proposed to estimate the position, velocity and acceleration of the threats with accuracy and the performance of it is compared with the existing tracking filter considering the maneuvering characteristics of threats.

We report in this paper the analysis of the motion of a needle and a spring in a viscous fluid under the influence of gravitational force. Lateral shift as well as vertical motion of a needle falling in a viscous fluid has been observed from a simple experiment. We also observed the combined rotation and translation of a falling spring. The trajectory and velocity of the falling needle and the spring were obtained by using an image processing technique. We also conducted numerical simulation for both problems. For the falling-needle problem, we employed a theory; but it turns out that significant correction is required for the solutions to match the numerical and experimental data. For the falling spring problem various theoretical formula were tested for their justification, but none of the existing theories can successfully predict the numerical and experimental results.

Chemical cleaning of boiler pipelines is necessary before the commissioning of thermal power plant after many years of construction. Fluid-Dynamic study for the chemical cleaning of boiler piplelines in Young-Heung thermal power plant is carried out. First, flow velocity necessary to sustain and exhaust solid particles in the vertical pipelines is calculated. Second, the flowrate necessary to make the calculated velocities in each vertical pipelines is calculated. Third, all the pipelines are analyzed with the Piping Systems Fluid Flow software to calculated the pressure loss in the pipelines. Finally, the operating point of the applied pump is calculated with the help of the same software.

A modified circulating fluidized bed heat exchanger under severe fouling condition is developed. The effects of fouling deposits on the performance of a heat exchanger are investigated. The principle and operating characteristics of a circulating fluidized bed heat exchanger are dicussed. A modified circulating fluidized bed heat exchanger shows more stable operating than the other circulating fluidized bed heat exchanger. The characteristics of self cleaning and heat transfer enhancement of a circulating fluidized bed heat exchanger are studied. The movement of spherical particles in a tube is visualized and heat transfer enhancement and scale reduction mechanism by particles are investigated.

A simple Couette flow velocity profile with an appropriate correlation for the free terminal rise velocity of a single bubble in a quiescent liquid can produce reliable results for the trajectories of small spherical air bubbles in a low-viscosity liquid (water) provided the liquid remains under uniform shear flow. Comparison of the model adopted in this paper with published results has been accomplished. Based on this study it has also been found that the lift coefficient in water is higher than its typical value in a high-viscosity liquid and therefore a modified correlation for the lift coefficient in a uniform shear flow of water within the regime of the $E\ddot{o}tv\ddot{o}s$ number $0.305{\leq}Eo{\leq}1.22$ is also presented.

Hydrometeor type and Drop Size Distribution (DSD) in cloud are the fundamental properties that may help explain the rain formation processes and determine the parameters of radar meteorology. This study presents a preliminary analysis of hydrometeor types and DSD data of cloud measured with a PARSIVEL (PARticle SIze and VELocity) optical disdrometer at the site of Cloud Physics Observation System (CPOS, $37^{\circ}41^{\prime}N$, $128^{\circ}45^{\prime}E$, 843 m from sea level) in Daegwallyeong mountainside of Korea. The method has been validated by comparing the observed rainfall rates with the computed ones from the fitted distribution, using the physical data such as DSD, terminal velocity, and rain intensity which were measured by a Micro-Rain Radar (MRR) and a PARSIVEL optical disdrometer. The analysis period started in three cases: on rainy days with light rain (15.5 mm), moderate rain (76 mm), and heavy rain (121 mm), from March to November 2007, respectively.

In this paper, the design procedure of a guidance algorithm in the boosting phase of missiles with free-flight after thrust cut-off is introduced. The purpose of the guidance is to achieve a required velocity vector at the thrust cut-off. Trajectory optimizations for four cost functions are performed to investigate implementable trajectories in the pitch plane. It is observed from the optimization results that high angle of attack maneuver in the beginning of the flight are required to satisfy the constraints. The proposed guidance algorithm consists of the pitch program to produce open-loop pitch attitude command and the yaw attitude command generator to nullify the velocity to go. The pitch program utilizes the pitch attitude histories obtained from the trajectory optimization.

This paper proposes a core technology for a micro river monitoring terminal device suitable for flood monitoring in small rivers and valleys. Our proposed device is basically equipped with a 77GHz radar, gyro and accelerometer sensors. To measure the flow velocity and water level, we proposed a signal processing technique that extracts pure water energy components from the observed Doppler velocity and reflection intensity from the radar. And to determine the stability of the river structure equipped with our device, we constantly monitor the displacement of the measured values of the gyro and accelerometer sensors. Experimental result verified that our method detects pure water energy in various river environments and distinguishes between flow velocity and water level well. And we verified that vibration and position change of structures can be determined through a gyro sensor. In future research, we will work to build a secure digital twin river network by lowering the cost of supplying RF-WAV devices. Also we expect our device to contribute to securing a preventive golden time in rivers.

Recovery of novel metals such as Au, Ag and Ni from wastes PCB was investigated by slag treatments. The CaO-$Al_2O_3$(-$SiO_2$) and CaO-$SiO_2$-$CaF_2$ slags were employed in the present study. The PCB/Cu ratio is recommended to be lower than unity. The use of CaO-$SiO_2$-$CaF_2$ slag provided the more higher yield of Au, Ag and Ni than the CaO-$Al_2O_3$(-$SiO_2$) slag did, which was mainly due to the lower melting point and the viscosity of $CaF_2$-containing slag. The terminal descending velocity of metal droplets in the slag phase increased with decreasing slag viscosity.

The physical characteristics of the major varieties of perilla were analyzed to use as basic data for the design of a high-quality, high-efficiency perilla cleaner and stone separator. Because the size, thousand-grain weight, angle of repose, angle of friction, bulk density and terminal velocity of perilla have significant differences according to the perilla variety, the different of characteristics by variety should be considered for performance improvement of a perilla cleaner and stone separator. Therefore the cleaner and stone separator using a sieve could be improved by the application of a detachable sieve or by using equipment such as a 2 - 3 stage sieve and regulating the slope. Moreover, because differences in the terminal velocity occur due to the differences in the size and thousand-grain weight according to the perilla variety, a blower with an adjustable fan speed was considered for the design of the improved cleaner. Additionally, it was shown that the length of perilla has the greatest correlation based on a comparison of the coefficients of the other characteristics. Accordingly, the length of perilla could be used as a major factor for the fine adjustment and parts replacement of the device. These results can be used as basic data for a high-quality, high-efficiency perilla cleaner and stone separator. In the future, the development of the machine and follow-up studies based on the basic data are needed to determine the optimized operating conditions and mechanism of action.
