The purpose of this study was to analyze the kinematics of the men's triple jump at the 2011 Daegu World Championships by comparing the results to those at the 2009 Berlin World Championships. The kinematic data were gathered from two steps before take off to the landing using a seven panorama system, and these data were divided into 3 phases for 8 participants. The average jump for the finalists was longer in the Daegu championships (17.46 m) than in the Berlin championships (17.28 m). The longest jump record was increased by 23 cm. The step was the longest at 36% of the total distance, followed by the hop at 30% and the jump at 34%. The first and third phases were substantially longer than the second phase (the step). The horizontal speed at take-off increased in the order hop, step, and jump. Overall, in comparison with the results from Berlin, the horizontal velocity increased, the vertical velocity decreased, and the landing angle decreased.

Airframe structure development of the 35 kg class 'Disaster and Public Safety Multicopter' UAV is described in this paper. To reduce the airframe weight, T-700 grade CFRP composite material was used, and the fuselage was designed with the semi-monocoque structure and plate installed with the control and communication devices designed in a sandwich structure. The specimen tests for the laminated plate and pipe were conducted to verify the strength and stiffness of the designed parts. The stacking sequence of composite materials was determined by the static strength and vibration analysis, and landing gear strut was designed by the nonlinear analysis with decent speed and ground clearance requirements. The static strength test was performed to evaluate the structural integrity and to verify the landing gear behavior.

The application area based on UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) is continuously increasing as time passing by. In particular the UAVs which consist of more than four horizontal propellers and the functionality of VTOL (Vertical Take-Off and Landing) are utilized in diverse platforms and the application products due to their safety and aerodynamically simpler design and architectures. The most UAV missions are controlled by GCSs (Ground Control System). The GCSs are generally connected to the internet and get electrical map and environmental information such as temperature, humidity, wind speed, wind direction and so on. In this paper, we design a system for UAV system to have capability of approaching to a certain ship and monitoring her efficiently by using AIS (Auto Identification System) information. Furthermore we verify that adapting AIS on GCS side is more efficient through experiments.

Recently, with the increase in the use of UAV(unmanned aerial vehicles), research on horizontal maintenance stations that can take off and land in various environments has been actively conducted. These stations can safely land UAV through multiple DOF(degrees of freedom) or at least 2-DOF-based actuator actuation. Among them, many researchers are dealing with the multi-DOF stewart platform due to its high safety. However, the stewart platform requires high-precision control technology because it requires a lot of torque to actuate according to the load action. Therefore, in this paper, to solve the mentioned problem, a bevel gear-based 2-DOF horizontal maintenance station system is proposed. The proposed system is configured to prevent damage due to air resistance when maintaining ships and to install it in a small space. Also, in terms of system configuration, the bevel gear-based horizontal maintenance system has the main advantage of being able to take off and land UAVs of various sizes through the replacement of station pads. The driving of the system consists of a simple form that can control the motor by adjusting the rotation speed of the motor according to the sea waveform.

In this study, the characteristics of main wind direction, vertical temperature and wind speed profile near the Moseulpo airfield for HALE UAV(High Altitude Long Endurance Unmaned Aerial Vehicle) is investigated. The results are summarized as follows, main wind direction is governed by air mass according to season and local wind such as land-sea breeze. The directions of landing and take-off of HALE UAV will be selected as the south-east direction in June ~ August, north-west direction in October ~ March, and south-east direction at daytime in April ~ May, September. Annual variation of temperature at 100 hPa showed that temperature in summer season is lower than winter season. On the other hands, wind speed at 250 hPa in winter season is higher than summer season. The threshold values of temperature and wind speed for HALE UAV flight are $-75^{\circ}C$ and $90ms^{-1}$, which were determined by 5 % frequency value($1.96{\sigma}$), respectively.

The major movement block of the containers have range between apron and designation points on yard in container terminal. The yard tractor operated by human takes charge of its movement in conventional container terminal. In automated container terminal, AGV(Automated Guided Vehicle) has charge of the yard tractor's role and the navigation path is ordered from upper level control system. The automated container terminal facilities must have the docking system to guide landing line to have high speed travelling and precision positioning. The general method for docking system uses the vision system with CCD camera, infra red, and laser. This paper describes the detection of AGV's position and orientation using laser slit beam to develop docking system.

The free-wing tilt-body aircraft is researched in the flight performance characteristics such as short take-off and landing capability, and reduced sensitivity to gust and center of gravity (CG) change. Due to the main wing separating from the fuselage, the high tiltable empennage, and the stub-wing strongly influencing from the propeller wake, the resulting vehicle aerodynamics and flight dynamics are quite different from those of a conventional fixed-wing aircraft. Using the governing flight dynamics model was studied previously, all of speed and body tilt angle is simulated to determine the flight envelope by a non-linear 3-DOF flight simulation analysis. Though flight performance and trimmability are studied, the flight model of free-wing tilt-body aircraft is to reduce the hidden risk and to achieve the successful flight test. It is analyzed the flight characteristics that distinguishes free-wing tilt-body aircraft from the conventional aircraft.

The powered missiles with very high thrust level can make highly underexpanded jet plume downstream of tile exhaust nozzle exit so that strong interactions between the exhaust plume and a free stream occur around the body at transonic or supersonic speeds. The interactions result in extremely complicated flow phenomena, which consist of plume-induced boundary layer separation, strong shear layers, various shock waves, and interactions among these. The flow characteristics are inherent nonlinear and severe unstable during the flight at its normal speed as well as taking-off and landing. Eventually, the induced boundary layer separation and pitching and yawing moments by the interactions cause undesirable effects ell the static stability and control of a missile.

VTOL(Vertical Take-Off and Landing) aircraft is attractive due to the reason that it is not necessary to have long runway. However a rotorcraft has a definite limitation to fly at the high speed due to the stall at the tip of rotor. To solve this problem, tilt rotor, tilt wing and lift fan were researched and developed. It was verified that the tilt rotor aircraft among them was more effective in disk loading. On this basis, the tilt rotor aircraft has been made into XV-15, V-22, BA-609 and Eagle Eye. This paper shows a nonlinear simulation program for general tilt rotor aircraft that was developed in order to validate the flight characteristics of tilt rotor aircraft and verified through the simulation analysis.
