From the previous researches about flow characteristic of micro-nozzle, we found that viscosity and back pressure induced heavy losses in micro nozzle. To overcome thess losses, we began to study new conceptual micro propulsion system that is thermal transpiration based micro propulsion system. It has no moving parts and can pump the gaseous propellant by temperature gradient only (cold to hot). Most of previous research on thermal transpiration is in its early stage and mainly studied for application to small vacuum facility or gas chromatography in ambient condition using nanoporous material like aerogel. In this study, we focus on basic research of propulsion system based on thermal transpiration using polyimide material in vacuum conditions.

A hybrid cutting using both plasma and end mill was developed for safe and efficient dismantling of nuclear facilities. In this cutting method, a moving arc plasma heats up the workpiece before milling. Thermally softened part of the workpiece is then removed quickly and deeply with an end mill. For the cutting experiments, a three-axis numerical control (NC) milling machine was combined with a commercialized arc plasma torch and used to cut 25 mm thick stainless steel plates. Experimental results revealed that pre-heating by arc plasmas can improve the cutting volume per unit time higher than 40% by reducing the cutting load and increasing the cuttable depth when using an end mill without cutting fluids. These advantages of a hybrid cutting process are expected to contribute to quick and safe segmentations of metal structures with radioactively contaminated inner surfaces.

Operation of LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) plants requires an effective maintenance strategy. To this end, the long-term and short-term trend of faults, such as mechanical and electrical troubles, should be identified so as to take proactive approach for ensuring the smooth and productive operation. However, it is not an easy task to predict the fault trend in LNG plants. Many variables and unexpected conditions make it quite difficult for the facility manager to be well prepared for future faulty conditions. This paper presents a model to predict the fault trend in a LNG plant. ARIMA (Auto-Regressive Integrated Moving Average) model is combined with Wavelet Transform to enhance the prediction capability of the proposed model. Test results show the potential of the proposed model for the preventive maintenance strategy.

An underground deep tunnel system is a facility in form of a reverse siphon for an under flood defense structure. In this study, the 'Shinwol rainwater storage and drainage system', which is under construction for the first time in South Korea, in order to confirm the effects of undular bore and pressurized air on the hydraulic stability of the facility in various flood scenarios a hydraulic model experiment was performed. As a result of this study, it was analyzed that the undular bore generated downstream pushed the pressurized air collected in the facility while moving upstream, and the pressure inside the pipe increased at this time. It was analyzed that the pressure during the passage of the undular bore was greater than the sum of the static pressure and dynamic pressure at the time and overflow occurred when the cross-sectional size of the pressurized air was more than 40% of the cross sectional area of the tunnel. It is determined that this is correlated with the volume of pressurized air collected in the facility, and it is determined that it is necessary to study the relationship between velocity of undular bore and the volume of pressurized air in the future.

Nowadays, public rental apartments' community facilities emphasize only their quantity aspect without considering residents' characteristics, leading their installation regulations to be based on only the number of households, which is problematic. As a result, in many cases, residents, after moving in, alter the facility usage or remodel the facilities for their use. Hereby, this study conducted focus group interviews with public rental apartments' residents as to find out space conditions of and improvement demands for the community facilities. Two public rental apartment complexes in Seoul and Gyeongi-do which were built after 2007 were selected for this study. As for the survey method, workshop panel was employed. Four people in each age class of infants, children, adolescents, adults, and seniors were formed into one group, and a total of 40 people in 10 groups were surveyed. The survey was continuously conducted from February to March in 2009. The study findings can be summarized as follows. 1) Among community facilities, there were more satisfactory outdoor facilities than satisfactory indoor facilities. Residents expressed satisfaction with the facilities linked with natural environment. The causes of unsatisfactory facilities were mostly poor management. 2) The facilities demanded by the residents included ones relevant to study, exercise, and hobbies. As public rental apartments are resided mostly by low-income families, study and hobby activities bring them cost problems. Therefore, it is needed that the apartment complexes support diverse such activities 3) As for facilities demanded for usage alteration, a residents' meeting room accounted for the most popular opinions. As it was used only once a week, its usage was very low. It should be opened to the residents and allowed to be used in various ways. 4) As for demands of changing spatial characteristics, outdoor exercise facilities accounted for the most opinions. Although they were installed in most cases, they were damaged and poorly managed, therefore being in need of improvement in operation and management. In order to maximally utilize public rental apartments' community facilities, facility planning in consideration of various age groups from residents' viewpoint and sustainable systematic management are required.

A person often needs to visit a facility that have not been visited before. In this case, it is necessary to easily identify the building in which the facility is located. Indoor navigation is also important, as the person may get lost due to the complex structure of buildings. To solve these problems, this paper presents a mobile application which provides a user with indoor place information and indoor navigation. A user is requested to take a photograph of a building of interest or of the current location. Then, the proposed application identifies the building of interest or the current location of the user by utilizing an image matching technique. For fast matching, database filtering by using GPS/magnetometer data and pre-extraction of features for images in the database are utilized. In case of indoor navigation, the application provides the actual images of check points as well as the moving direction. Simulation results show that the proposed system successfully identifies the location of users and provides place information and indoor navigation.
