  • 수중 통신에서 사용되는 음향 신호의 감쇠는 노드 사이의 거리는 물론 사용 주파수 대역에도 크게 영향을 받는다. 또한 음향 신호는 긴 전송 지연을 가지므로 복잡한 절차와 많은 제어 메시지를 필요로 하는 매체 접속 기법은 사용하기에 적합하지 않다. 본 논문은 이처럼 열악한 수중 환경에서 코드 분할 다중 접속 기법의 적용 방법을 제시하고 그 성능을 분석한다. 수중 음향 센서망 구조는 데이터 수집형 트리 구조를 가정하며 에너지 절약을 위해 트리 구조에서 계층간 엇갈림 깨어남 패턴을 사용한다. 성능 분석을 위해 다양한 사용 주파수 대역에서 계층별 데이터 전송률을 수학적으로 도출한다.

  • As a result of the enforced control of emission, many devices, including the diesel particulate filter, have been installed in diesel cars to reduce the emission of particulate matters. In this study, a car fire case has been investigated and analyzed. A car fire broke out after the vehicle traveled a distance of 1.4 km from a car service center. The car was provided with DPF cleaning when the DPF warning light came on. After being dismantled in the engine room, the car's engine and gearbox were investigated. The findings showed that the rear part of the DPF metal case was melted and punctured, while the honeycomb filter of the DPF was damaged. The car fire was caused by an overheated DPF associated with inaccurate maintenance practice. Therefore, the responsibility of the fire rested on the car service center that performed the DPF cleaning.

  • The bio-logging method could be a valuable approach to studying the underwater movement of marine fish. We investigated the horizontal and vertical movement patterns of two yellowtails Seriola quinqueradiata weighing 8.7 kg and 9.5 kg with a popup satellite archival tag from October 2020 to January 2021 in the East Sea of Korea. Our results showed that a yellowtail migrated northward in October and November, and then shifted southward in mid-December. The average swimming depth and temperature of the fish monitored over 82 days were 24.9 ± 9.3 m (average ± SD) and 16.5 ± 1.9℃, respectively, and the total traveled distance was 1,172.4 km. The fish swam significantly deeper during the daytime (33.70 ± 14.80 m) than at nighttime (20.65 ± 8.44 m) from November to December (p < 0.05). These results suggest that the horizontal migratory route of yellowtails in accordance with the East Korea Warm Current which is the main branch of Tsushima Warm Current in the fall and early winter seasons, and showed significant diel vertical movement patterns from November to December.

  • Home care, known also as domiciliary care, is part of the community care service that is a responsibility of the local government authorities in the UK as well as many other countries around the world. The aim is to provide the care and support needed to assist people, particularly older people, people with physical or learning disabilities and people who need assistance due to illness to live as independently as possible in their own homes. It is performed primarily by care workers visiting clients' homes where they provide help with daily activities. This paper is concerned with the dispatching of care workers to clients in an efficient manner. The optimized routine for each care worker determines a schedule to achieve the minimum total cost (in terms of distance traveled) without violating the capacity and time window constraints. A collaborative population-based meta-heuristic called Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is applied to solve the problem. A particle is defined as a multi-dimensional point in space which represents the corresponding schedule for care workers and their clients. Each dimension of a particle represents a care activity and the corresponding, allocated care worker. The continuous position value of each dimension determines the care worker to be assigned and also the assignment priority. A heuristic assignment scheme is specially designed to transform the continuous position value to the discrete job schedule. This job schedule represents the potential feasible solution to the problem. The Earliest Start Time Priority with Minimum Distance Assignment (ESTPMDA) technique is developed for generating an initial solution which guides the search direction of the particle. Local improvement procedures (LIP), insertion and swap, are embedded in the PSO algorithm in order to further improve the quality of the solution. The proposed methodology is implemented, tested, and compared with existing solutions for some 'real' problem instances.

  • There have been few researches on the factors affecting forest recreation demand and demand for and value of forest recreation in Korea. This study has three main objectives as follows; First, to introduce the nature of recreation demand, the factors affecting forest recreation demand, and the methods of measuring demand for and benefits from forest recreation by reviewing related literatures. Secondly, to investigate the visitors' characteristics, patterns of recreation activities, and their attitudes for the recreation environments at the Deogyu National Park through interviewing them with the questionaire. Thirdly, to estimate the demand for and benefits of forest recreation at the National Park by Travel Cost Method. The survey was dealt by three trained interviewers at the enterance of the park for 5 days from September 26 to October 10, 1982. The 430 respondents were sampled randomly among 9,391 visitors with 4.6% of sampling rate. As the results, the study revealed that most of visitors to Deogyu National Park were from urban areas and belonged to the intermediate-upper income classes, and that most of them traveled more than 250 km or 4 hours to the site from their origins. And more respondents answered that the recreation environments of the cite were more or less better than other recreation areas. From the date of travel distances and participation rates of 13 cities or counties, the demand schedule of forest recreation at the National Park was established. The estimated equation of total experience demand curve is; Log $VR_i$ 2.6353 – 1.021 Log $D_i$ $R^2=0.9451$ where, $VR_i$ $(%\times1000)$ = Participation rate of the ith origin $D_i$ (km) = Travel distance from the ith origin From the total experience demand curve, the demand curve of recreation resources was built by adding travel cost in distance (km). The regression equation of the recreation resources at the Nation park is; Log V = 4.0304 – 0.8167 Log D $R^2=0.9060$ From the demand schedule of recreation resources, the recreational bendfits of Deogyu National Park was estimated. The estimated bendfits to a visitor from the forest is equivalent to the travel cost of 2,372 km. The study also found out that the demand for recreation resources was less elastic than the demand for the total recreation experience at the Deogyu National Park.

  • 본 연구의 목적은 시간이 경과하면서 통행속도와 같은 교통환경에 나타나는 변화가 대중교통이용자의 시간거리 접근성에 미치는 영향을 분석하는 것이다. 이를 위하여 서울대도시권 대중교통체계의 3개년(2011년, 2013년, 2015년)의 각각 1주일치 통행기록을 담은 교통카드 데이터를 활용한다. 교통카드빅데이터에는 대중교통이용자들의 통행궤적에 대한 시 공간 정보가 담겨 있다. 본 연구에서는 교통카드 자료의 통행시간을 토대로 각 시점의 대중교통체계를 구성하고 있는 지하철 역 및 버스 정류장들 사이의 링크들의 시간거리를 산출한다. 실험 결과로 얻어진 통합 교통망에서 접근도 변화는 두 가지 관점으로 요약할 수 있다. 첫째, 해가 지날수록 접근도는 떨어지는 경향이 있다. 교통망이 더 복잡해짐으로 차량의 이동 속도가 저하되기 때문이다. 둘째, 요일별 접근도 변화 분석에서 주말에 접근도가 높아지는 경향이 있다. 이것은 버스노선들 상의 버스 속도가 주말에 빨라지기 때문이다. 접근도 변화의 분석을 위해 연도별과 요일별 차량속도와 승객수를 그래프로 설명한다.

  • We designed and fabricated the engine oil monitoring sensor to measure engine oil deterioration through increased vehicle mileage. Since the condition of the engine oil can be affected by the state of the vehicle and its operating conditions, it should be directly measured and determined in every vehicle. The fabricated sensor has an aluminum parallel capacitor structure that measures capacitance related with the dielectric constant, which is one of the indices of oil deterioration. The size of the capacitor is small enough that it could be easily adapted on the oil level gauge without introducing any change in the design. The fabricated device is installed in the diesel engine to measure the change in capacitance accurately as the vehicle moved from 0 km (new engine oil state) to 11,364 km. The results showed the maximum value at around 5,000 km, and the values plateaued as mileage increased, corresponding with the measurement result of the TAN (Total Acid Number). Based on the results, the condition of the oil must be monitored regularly though oil change is recommended once the vehicle has traveled the distance of around 10,000 km.

  • Aqueous extract of antidiarrhoeal formulation (ADF) containing Holarrhena antidysentrica, Aegle marmelos and Punica granatum was investigated for antidiarrhoeal activity against charcoal-induced gut transit, serotonin-induced diarrhoea and $PGE_2-induced$ small intestine enteropooling in rats. The control, standard and test groups of experimental animals were administered with normal saline (p.o.), diphenoxylate hydrochloride (5 mg/kg, p.o.) and ADF (250 mg and 500 mg/kg, p.o.) respectively except the control group of $PGE_2-induced$ small intestine enteropooling which received only 5% ethanol in normal saline (i.p.). Charcoal (10 ml/kg, p.o.) and serotonin $(600\;{\mu}g/kg,\;i.p.)$ were administered after 30 min, while $PGE_2\;(100\;{\mu}g/kg,\;p.o.)$ was administered immediately afterwards. The distance traveled by charcoal in small intestine was measured after 15 and 30 min of charcoal administration, diarrhoea was observed every 30 min for six hour after serotonin administration and the volume of intestinal fluid was measured after 30 min of $PGE_2$ administration. Oral administration of ADF significantly inhibited the frequency of defaecation and decreased the propulsion of charcoal meal through the gastrointestinal tract, reduced the wetness of faecal dropping in serotonin-induced diarrhoea and also reduced the $PGE_2-induced$small intestine enteropooling. ADF may have potential to reduce the diarrhoea in rats.

  • The emissions of several air pollutants ($NO_x$, CO, VOCs, etc.) for the replacement of all diesel buses by Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) buses were estimated in the Busan Metropolitan Area (BMA). These emissions were calculated from emission factors considering the different driving speeds with bus routes, distance traveled, and deterioration factors. For the purpose of this study, three categories of fuel type were selected: (1) the combination of diesel (65%) and CNG buses (35%) (DSL+CNG case), (2) all diesel buses (DSL case), and (3) all CNG buses (CNG case). The emissions of $NO_x$ and CO in the CNG case were estimated to be significant decreases (by about 50% and 98%, respectively) relative to the DSL case. Conversely, the emission of VOCs (980.7 ton/year) in the CNG case were a factor of 3.3 higher than that (299.8 ton/year) in the DSL case. In addition, the diurnal variations of emissions between two city buses (e.g. diesel and CNG) and all other vehicles were distinctly different because the two city buses operate at a regular time interval. Our overall results suggest the possibility that the pollutant emissions from the CNG buses can exert less influence on air quality in the target area than those from the diesel buses.

  • 본 논문에서는 ESPI 방법을 이용하여 자동차 엔진의 핵심 부품인 TPS의 열변형력에 따른 변외변형을 측정하여 열변형 특성을 분석하였다. 높은 해상도의 CCD와 줌렌즈를 사용하여 부품의 검사영역을 가로 세로 각각 5cm로 최소화하였다. 주행거리가 다른 TPS 부품들을 4-step 위상이동법과 위상 연속화를 통해 변형량이 연속적으로 변하는 위상도를 얻었고, 3차원으로 변형의 모양과 크기를 나타내었다. 약 $70^{\circ}C$의 온도를 유지하면서 TPS 부품에 열을 가한 경우 주행거리가 길어질수록 TPS 변형은 크게 측정되었고, 위로 볼록한 형태로 변형되었다. 그리고 내부결함이 있는 부품에서는 위상도에 불연속적인 무늬가 나타났고, 아래로 오목한 모양을 갖는 변형으로 나타났다.
