Recently, interest in using Al alloys in ship construction instead of fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) has increased because of the advantages of A) alloy ships over FRP ships, including high speed, increased load capacity. and ease of recycling. This paper investigated the mechanical and electrochemical properties of Al alloys in a slow strain rate test under various potential conditions. These results will provide reference data for ship design by determining the optimum protection potential regarding hydrogen embrittlement and stress corrosion cracking. In general, Al and Al alloys do not corrode on formation of a film that has resistance to corrosion in neutral solutions. In seawater, however, $Cl^-$ ions lead to the formation and destruction of a Passive film. In a potentiostatic experiment. the current density after 1200 sec in the Potential range of $-0.68\~-1.5\;V$ was low. This low current density indicates the protection potential range. Elongation at an applied potential of 0 V was high in this SSRT. However, corrosion protection under these conditions is impossible because the mechanical properties are worse owing to decreased strength resulting from the active dissolution reaction in parallel parts of the specimen. A film composed of $CaCO_3\;and\;Mg(OH)_2$ confers corrosion resistance. However, at potentials below -1.6 V forms non-uniform electrodeposition coating, since there is too little time to form a coating. Therefore, we concluded that the mechanical properties are poor because the effect of hydrogen gas generation exceeds that of electrodeposition. Comparison of the maximum tensile strength, elongation, and time to fracture indicated that the optimum protection potential range was from -1.45 to -0.9 V (SSCE).

This paper proposes a real-time navigation algorithm which integrates the artificial potential field (APF) for an unmanned vehicle in the unknown environment. This approach uses repulsive potential function around the obstacles to force the vehicle away and an attractive potential function around the goal to attract the vehicle. In this research, laser range finder is used as range sensor. An obstacle detected by the sensor creates repulsive vector. Differential global positioning system (DGPS) and digital compass are used to measure the current vehicle position and orientation. The measured vehicle position is also used to create attractive vector. This paper proposes a new concept of potential field based navigation which controls unmanned vehicle's speed and steering. The magnitude of repulsive force based on the proposed algorithm is designed not to be over the magnitude of attractive force while the magnitude is increased linearly as being closer to obstacle. Consequently, the vehicle experiences a generalized force toward the negative gradient of the total potential. This force drives the vehicle downhill towards its goal configuration until the vehicle reaches minimum potential and it stops. The effectiveness of the proposed APF for unmanned vehicle is verified through simulation and experiment.

Korean shipbuilding companies have taken many efforts for safety over the years by developing Health, Safety & Environment (HSE) Management Systems, Procedures, Training, and studying Programs for prevention of incidents. As a result, the shipbuilding industry has succeeded in reducing overall injury rates. Nevertheless, the industry also noticed that incident rates are still not at zero and more importantly, serious injuries and fatalities are still occurring. One factor that may be attributing to this is the lack of managing potential severity during incident investigations, most incident investigations are implemented based on the actual result. Generally, each shipbuilding company develops their customized incident investigation programs and these are also commonly being focused on actual result. This study aimed to develop a shift in strategy toward safety to classify the criteria of potential severity from any incidents and manage that to prevent any recurrence or causing any serious injuries or fatalities in the shipbuilding industry. Several global energy companies have already developed potential severity management tools and applied them in their incident investigations. In order to verify the necessity of improvement for current systems, a case study and comparative analysis between a domestic shipbuilding company and several global energy companies from foreign countries was implemented and comparison of two incident investigation cases from specific offshore projects was conducted to measure the value of a potential severity system. Also, a checklist was established from the data of fatalities and serious injuries in recent 5 years that occurred in Korea shipbuilding industry and a proposal to verify high potential incidents in the incident investigation process and comparative analysis between the assessment by appling proposed checklist and the assessment from a global energy company by using their own system was implemented. As a measure to prevent any incidents, it is required to focus on potential severity assessment during the incident investigation rather than to only control actual result. Hence, this study aims to propose a realistic plan which enables to improve the existing practices of incident investigation and control in the shipbuilding industry.

풍력발전단지의 신규 개발과 안정적인 운영 계획 수립을 위해 기후변화에 따른 미래 풍력에너지의 변동성 정보를 파악하는 것이 필요하다. 본 연구는 IPCC 5차 보고서에서 새롭게 도입된 대표농도경로(Representative Concentration Pathway)를 적용한 기후변화 시나리오 자료를 활용하여 2006년부터 2040년까지의 가까운 미래에 대한 풍력에너지(풍력에너지밀도와 잠재전력생산량)의 시 공간적 변동성을 분석하고자 한다. 사용된 기후변화 시나리오는 지역기후모델 HadGEM3-RA를 이용해 생산된 RCP2.6과 8.5자료이다. 시나리오 생산의 기반이 된 지역기후모델을 과거기간에 대하여 ECMWF의 ERA-interim 재분석자료와 비교분석한 결과, 지역 기후모델은 풍력에너지를 육지에서는 과소, 바다에서는 과대 모의하였다. 그리고 변동성 역시 육지에서 과소, 바다에서는 과대 모의하였다. 미래 풍력에너지는 RCP 시나리오별로 다소 차이가 나타나지만 육지에서 증가, 바다에서는 감소할 것으로 예측되었으며 고도가 높은 산지 및 해안지역에서 미래 풍력에너지의 변동성이 증가할 것으로 분석되었다. 지역별 풍력에너지밀도 분석결과 제주에서 크게 증가할 것으로 예상되었으며 변동성도 크게 증가하였다. 미래 풍력에너지의 변동은 주변 기상장의 변화와 연관 지어 해석이 가능하였으나 큰 변동성으로 인한 불확실성이 증가할 것으로 판단할 수 있다. 본 연구를 통해서 분석된 결과는 미래 에너지 수급 및 활용계획 수립에 있어 기초자료로 활용될 수 있으리라 판단한다.

Kinematically redundantant manipulators have a nimber of potential advantages over nonredundant ones. Questions associated with manipulability measures for (non)redundant manipulators derived by minimum 2-norm solution and minimum infinity-norm solution in unit joint velocity are examined in detail.

The fundamental gap between the lowest two Dirich-let eigenvalues for a Schr dinger operator HR={{{{ { { d}^{2 } } over { { dx}^{2 } } }}}}+V(x) on L({{{{ LEFT | -R,R RIGHT | }}}}) is compared with the gap for a same operator Hs with a different domain {{{{ LEFT [ -S,S RIGHT ] }}}} and the difference is exponentially small when the potential has a large barrier.

미래유망기술은 그 중요성으로 인해 국내외 유수의 기관에서 발표를 하고 있지만 이에 대한 후행평가는 거의 없는 실정이다. 잘못된 정보는 큰 시행착오를 초래하게 되므로, R&D 기획 단계에서 과거에 발표되었던 유망기술을 한 번 더 확인하는 작업은 필요하다. 따라서, 본 논문에서 제안한 평가 프레임워크가 과거 발표된 미래유망기술에 대해 신속하고, 시간과 비용 측면에서 효율적인 평가방법을 제공할 것으로 기대한다. 이를 위해 본 논문에서는 제품화가능성과 구매가능성의 개념을 도입하였다. 각각 특허와 뉴스 정보를 근거로 측정되는 것으로, 제품화가능성은 유망기술이 관련 응용 제품으로 구현될 가능성을 계량화한 것이고, 구매가능성은 소비자들이 응용 제품을 구매할 가능성을 수치화한 것이다. 제안된 평가프레임워크를 설명하기 위하여 LED와 LCD를 비교했하였고, 그 결과 평가시점(2011년)에서의 유망성은 LCD가 LED에 비해 높은 것으로 나타났다. 이는 시장보고서의 결과와 일치한다.

The drift force acting on a freely-floating sphere in water of finite depth is studied within the framework of a linear potential theory. A velocity potential describing fluid motion is determined by distribution pulsating sources and dipoles on the immersed surface of the sphere. Upon knowing values of the potential, hydrodynamic forces are evaluated by integrating pressures over the immersed surface of the sphere. The motion response of the sphere in water of finite depth is obtained by solving the equation of motion. From these results, the drift force on the sphere is evaluated by the momentum theorem, in which a far-field velocity potential is utilized in forms of Kochin function. The drift force coefficient Cdr of a fixed sphere increases monotononically with non-dimensional wave frequency ${\sigma}a$. On the other hand, in freely-floating case, the Cdr has a peak value at ${\sigma}a$ of heave resonance. The magnitude of the drift force coefficient Cdr in the case of finite depth is different form that for deep water, but the general tendency seems to be similar in both cases. It is to note that Cdr is greater than 1.0 when non-dimensional water depth d/a is 1.5 in the case of freely-floating sphere.
