  • The purpose of this study is to examine the influence of remoteness between exit stairways on evacuation performance. Firstly, we reviewed the design regulations of the U.S., the U.K., and South Korea, in relation to remoteness between Exit stairways. Secondly, evacuation simulation was implemented, in order to evaluate the adequacy of each standard. Eight tall buildings in South Korea were selected for the simulation. Evacuation performance was assessed for different remote distances between Exit stairways. Lastly, this research analyses the evacuation simulation data statistically in relation to the effect of remoteness on evacuation time. We found that as the distance between two exit stairways increases, the total evacuation time and average evacuation time for evacuees decreases. There was no statistical influence between the maximum travel distance of the evacuee and the remoteness between two exit stairways, but there was a significant effect on the average travel distance of the evacuees. In addition, the results from the optimal point showed that the L_ratio had the highest evacuation time at 0.44, while the D_ratio had the highest evacuation time at 0.38.

  • All legal systems set out the principle of full compensation of damages, which aims to fulfil the plaintiff's expectations by putting him into as good a position as he would have been in if the contract had been performed. On the other hand, they place some limitations on the full recoverability of damages for breach of contract. In Civil Law systems, 'fault' is a necessary requirement for liability for damages, and the extent of recoverable damages is directly related to the degree of the dependent's fault. This principle, however, is not adopted by Common Law systems, in which the dependent would be liable in damages for breach of contract even though the breach was not due to his fault. The CISG is in a similar position to the latter systems. In Common Law systems as well as CISG, the extent of liability of the party in breach for damages depends on whether he foresaw or could have foreseen the damages at the time of contracting. Unlike the position in Civil Law systems, foreseeability seems to be the most effective principle to decide the extent. The tests for remoteness centre on reasonable foreseeability or contemplation of the loss. The party in breach is liable even for loss indirectly caused to the other party provided that this loss was foreseeable or contemplated by the party in breach. However, this manner to decide remoteness may lead to unreasonable results in some cases. If the party in breach were the inveterate pessimist who foresaw all sorts of possible damages, he could foresee damages too remote from the breach of duty. If this fact were revealed in the course of trial, he should be liable for such indirect damages. This is really undesirable result. Therefore, as to the remoteness test, the criterion of whether the loss is foreseen or contemplated must not be adopted. Foreseeability by reasonable person must be the only available criterion.

  • 원전 핵 연료봉에 대한 검사는 고준위 방사능의 위험으로부터 원격에서 이루어져야 하며, 또한 정확하게 이루어져야 한다. 현재 원전 핵 연료봉에 대한 검사는 방사능의 위험으로 인해 카메라로 핵 연료봉을 촬영하여 녹화된 동영상을 원격에서 보고 판단하는 형태로 운영되고 있다. 본 연구는 원자력 발전소에서 사용되는 핵 연료봉에 대한 상태 검사를 영상처리를 통하여 구현한 것이다. 핵 연료봉은 여러 개를 다발로 묶어 사용하도록 되어있는데, 이를 검사하기위한 영상처리 기법으로는 에지 검출 기법이 유용하다. 핵 연료봉 에지 검출을 위해 DoG 기법에 임계값 처리를 추가하는 방법을 제안한다. 이것은 DoG를 최적화한 새로운 기법으로, DoG와 임계값을 듀얼로 처리하는 방법이다. 이 방법으로 핵 연료봉 에지를 검출한 후에, 핵 연료봉 검사 알고리즘을 수행하여 핵 연료봉 이상 유무를 판단한다. 이러한 방법을 통해 미니어처로 제작된 핵 연료봉 검사시스템에 실험한 결과 우수한 특성을 확인하였다. 본 연구를 통해 원전 핵 연료봉 상태 검사를 보다 쉽고 안전하게 시행할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

  • Cooperative scientific research in Antarctic has been successful since the International Geophysical Year 1957/1958. Presently, 43 nations have joined the Antarctic Treaty as consultative parties or acceding states, and other treaties and agreements have evolved to conserve the integrity and to manage the resources of the Antarctic ecosystem. Although yet to be designated, tourism areas in Antarctica are under consideration. Due to its remoteness and vast magnitude, Antarctica's science is slowly emerging. Satellite technology has enabled observation of the progression of the ozone hole above Antarctica. Mineral exploitation has yet to take place, as has the transport of Antarctic icebergs to some arid nations. On the other hand, both seal and whale exploitations have occurred, devastating these populations. The lessons learned from past human greed are used to design krill and squid fisheries, though the life histories of these organisms are yet to be adequately understood. An ecosystem approach to managing Antarctic resource exploitation is essential. Procuring the needed logistics to do so is daunting, requiring the highest degree of international cooperation and educational outreach to nurture the needed effective scientific and engineering talent, both natural and social.

  • This study aims to present about current status of logistics in Mongolia. As a landlocked country have limited the role of a maritime transportation is a very poor country. However, Mongolia is a rich country in mineral resources in the world and became a center of increasing international trade. Therefore, Mongolia wants to develop logistics as other developed countries using a strategic location. Mongolia uses international port for transit China and Russia by railway. First, this paper focuses on discussing the current situation of logistics. Second it points out some issues currently facing by the governmental policy to promote. Finally, this paper presents some recommendations for developing logistics in Mongolia. The geographical remoteness of Mongolia which results in high cost of transport causes problems for trade relations with the rest of the world to grow.

  • In this paper, we propose a new technique of codification. The purpose of this method is to take in consideration the natural language nuances and the fuzziness that characterizes the human reasoning. So, we warranted a means of more flexible encoding that translates as well the linguistic descriptions. Its principle is simple and intuitive. It consists simply in replacing in ambiguous cases, a unique number by an interval. The introduction of the new codification necessitates the elaboration of metric or similarity in order to compare two intervals. This comparison must take in consideration the difference of their size, the remoteness of their center and the width of their intersection. In consequence, we defined three new fuzzy concepts : "fuzzy inclusion degree", "fuzzy resemblance degree," and " fuzzy curve".

  • The prospect of Arctic trade transportation opening on a year-round basis creates a vast opportunity of exploring untapped resources and shortened navigational routes. However, the environment's remoteness and lack of technical experiences remains a big challenge for the maritime industry. With this, engine designers and makers are continually investigating, specifically optimizing propulsion shafting system design, to meet the environmental and technical challenges of the region. Further, classification societies recognize the need to upgrade the Unified Rules concerning elements to meet current Polar requirements. Hence in this paper, excitation torque calculation on Polar class vessels propulsion shafting system will be reviewed. The propeller - ice interaction load effect, which is a main consideration of excitation source of Polar Class propulsion shafting system, on shaft design calculation will be analyzed.

  • The main purpose of the study is to analyze the main aspects of state regulation of the banking business in the context of social and digital transformation. One of the key elements of the functioning of the economy of any country are banks that ensure the redistribution of financial resources and stimulate economic growth. However, the banking sector, like other activities, is dynamic and depends on the pace of development and forms of technological progress that affect the forms and types of information and digital technologies, as well as the globalization and remoteness of banking services. Accordingly, the need for effective implementation of the latest technologies becomes relevant, which will not only help increase consumer satisfaction with the banking product, but also ensure the development of the country's financial sector. As a result of the study, trends in the development of state regulation of the banking sector in the digital economy were identified.
