It is well known that the aircraft engine inlet should be safely designed against the bird strike at the aircraft development stage. The aircraft accident is increasing for FOD(Foreign Object Damage), especially bird of runway circumference. The aircraft accident due to bird strike brings about economic loss which is connected with the life of passengers. In this study, MSC/DYTRAN has been utilized to analyze the aircraft engine inlet against the bird strike. In order to validate the proposed method for the bird strike analysis, this study was performed with comparison of precedence study results.

Bird strike is big issue in aviation. Because a bird strike causes not only an aircraft damage but also a fatality, aviation societies are gearing up to prevent a bird strike. However, the accidents is not going down yet. Annal average of bird strikes in Korea is 1.15 accidents per ten thousand of flight, which is lower than the other country, for example 1.84 accidents in France and 2.38 accidents in Switzerland, 1.15 accidents. In the U.S.A, there are 89,727 accidents for the 19 year(1990-2008). Also flight delay is total 637,692 hours. The cost is total 350,258 billion dollar and 18,435 billion dollar per year. In related with those data's, this research is about the current and legal status of the bird strike. Also it will be useful to establish aviation safety policy and manage the bird strike.

The bird repellent, methiocarb 50% WP, has been used to reduce the bird damage in the crop field in the European countries. The bird damage occaisonally would occur in the wet direct seeded rice and in soybean field, and resulted in decreasing the crop productivity by the reduction of seedling emergence rate. In this experiment, rice seeds, Hwasungbyeo(Oryza sativa), were coated with the different application rate of methiocarb, 5, 10 and 15 per kg seed, and soybean, Taegwangkong(Glycine max), 2.5, 5.0 and 7.5g. In rice, the seeds coated with 10 and 15g of methiocarb were not lost by bird, while those with 5g and control were lost to 37 and 50% of total seeds, respectively. No damage by birds was observed in rice seedling when the coleoptile and radicle of rice were emerged at 7 days after the water seeding. The crop injury of methiocarb reducing the emergence rate of seedlings, shortening the shoot length, and decreasing the leaf number was occurred at the treated of methiocarb 15g per kg seed. In soybean, the loss of the sprouting by birds was lower in the treatment of methiocarb 7.5g per kg seed than that in both the control and the treatments of methiocarb, 2.5 and 5.0g per kg seed. No crop injury by the treatment of methiocarb was observed in all application rate.

While various efforts are being made to ensure aviation safety, air accident rate induced by pilot human factors is still high worldwide. In particular, among pilot human factors, it would be the most important issue for pilots to anticipate and recognize flight environmental factors beyond their control and to make a positive decision making(ADM). In the Republic of Korea Air Force(ROKAF), there were many dizzying experiences induced by bird strike incidents and developed into dangerous moments such as damage to the aircraft and pilots' increased mental stress. It is a matter of serious concern in terms of safety management and human factors to dismiss bird strike incidents as inevitable misfortune due to environmental factors. In 2018, the ROKAF Aviation Safety Agency(ASA) conducted an experimental study to enhance pilots' ADM competence that can anticipate and avoid a bird strike. As the way of the study, 'Bird Strike Preventing Information' had been written and distributed every week by the ASA to flight units in the ROKAF during the period of the study. Through enhanced pilots' perceptual ADM competence, there was a noticeable number of reduction in bird strike incident compared to previous years of the experimental study.

Bird damages are often occurred at the seeding and seedling stages of crops. What the bird damage is preventing from the seeding and seedling of rice in the paddy would be very important to get high yield. Methiocarb was formulated as a bird repellent of crop seeding and seedling. Its effects on the seedling growth, related to the chemical injuries and the bird damages, were examined at the seeding and seedling growth stages of Anjungbyeo(Oryza sativa L.) with different types and amounts of methiocarb treatment in both pot and field experiments. In the pot experiment, bird damages were not occurred at all treatments of methiocarb, while bird damages were occurred at the control; 30, 85, and 100％ of damages at 5, 10, and 15 days after seeding, respectively. The ratio of seedling stand was not significantly different among all of treatments, methiocarb, methiocarb＋thiram, and control. However, the plant height and the number of seedling leaves at 15 days after seeding was shortened and lowered statistically more at treatment of methiocarb 15g than those of methiocarb 10g and control. The plant height at 35 days after seeding, showing the recovery degrees of chemical injuries, was significantly lowered in treatment of methiocarb＋thiram 15g, whereas the plant height of methiocarb FS 15g was not significantly differed from that of the control. In the field study, the bird damages were significantly reduced in treatment of methiocarb compared to that of the control. The plant height and the number of leaves at 25 days after seeding were not differed statistically among all of treatments. The chemical injuries were occurred in all treatments of methiocarb at 10 days after seeding, while they were not shown at 20 days after seeding.

Recently the wind energy has been alternatively used as a renewable energy resource instead of the mostly used fossil fuel due to its lack and environmental issues. This work is to propose a structural design and analysis procedure for development of the low noise 100W class small wind turbine system which will be applicable to relatively low speed region like Korea and for the domestic use. Structural analysis including load cases, stress, deformation, buckling, vibration and fatigue life was performed using the Finite Element Method, the load spectrum analysis and the Miner rule. In order to evaluate the designed structure, the structural test was carried out and its test results were compared with the estimated results. In addition, the blade should be safe from the impact damage due to FOD(Foreign Object Damage) including the bird strike. In order to analize the bird strike penomena on the blade, MSC. Dytran was used, and the applied method Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian was evalud by comparison with the previous study results.

Pre-dispersal seed predation by a granivorous bird, the masked grosbeak (Eophona personata, Fringillidae), was investigated in two bird-dispersed trees, Celtis sinensis and Aphananthe aspera (Ulmaceae). The objectives of this study were to 1) measure direct damage of predation by grosbeaks on plant crops, 2) reveal the temporal pattern of predation within each tree species and its causal factors, and 3) test whether foraging grosbeaks hinder foraging of frugivorous birds, thereby indirectly impacting the reproduction of both tree species. A substantial amount of fruit and seed crop was consumed by grosbeaks (24.3% in Celtis; 55.5% in Aphananthe), and only 17.7% (Celtis) and 16.7% (Aphananthe) were removed by frugivorous birds. At the study site, the grosbeak population size fluctuated greatly during the fruiting seasons of both plant species. As for Celtis, predated seed density also fluctuated temporally, and the local population size of grosbeaks was responsible for predated seed density. In Aphananthe, predation was not fully explained by grosbeak populations or plant phenology, but its peak coincided with that of grosbeak population. These results suggest that predispersal seed predation by granivorous birds can have large negative impacts on the bird-dispersed plants. Changes in local population size of granivorous birds can influence predatation and can affect reproductive success of the bird-dispersed plants available to the birds.

The objectives of this study is to carry out Bird strike analysis and tests of a blade antenna of aircraft. FEMs (Finite Element Models) were created for the analysis, while dummy and real antennas were used for the bird strike tests. In the analysis, birds were modeled with SPH (Smooth Particle Hydrodynamics) method, and the behaviors of the bird, antenna, and joint structure between antenna and aircraft fuselage were simulated with the FSI (Fluid-Structure Interaction) method. After the bird strike test was performed, the results of the analysis and test showed that they had a positive relationship. The damage of antenna and bolted joint was checked, and the structural integrity of the airframe was proved.
