This study proposes a construction plan for the Korea Navy's next-generation TSCE(Total Ship Computing Environment) based destroyers to address rapidly evolving maritime threats and decreasing military manpower. It focuses on system integrated ship construction based on TSCE for quick response time with fewer operators, improving the efficiency of systems and Equipments installed in the ship. The methodology includes analyzing TSCE-based system integration theories and levels. also analyze system integration in U.S. Navy’s Zumwalt destroyers and Littoral Combat Ships, conducting expert surveys to build consensus on system integration methods, proposing operational efficiency improvements through TSCE-based system integration. Additionally, we propose an architecture of TSCE with real time OA(Open Architecture) from both functional and physical perspectives, verified through Python simulations. The study suggests optimal crew sizes for next-generation destroyers through comparative analysis of TSCE based integration types. It emphasizes the importance of system integration in naval ship construction, presenting specific measures to enhance operational efficiency and optimize crew operations. The findings are expected to contribute significantly to enhance the future naval capabilities of the Korea Navy.

Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) exhibits superior tensile strength and corrosion resistance compared to steel but has a lower elasticity. Recently, researchers have addressed this by proposing composite sections of FRP and concrete. To ensure the intended composite behavior, these FRP–concrete sections should exhibit sufficient stress transfer between the two elements through a shear connection. Herein, various shear connection methods were proposed to improve the composite behavior of glass fiber–reinforced polymer (GFRP) plates and concrete. Through push-out tests, the behavior characteristics of the prepared specimens were analyzed. The findings confirm that an FRP shear key (FSK) with a small cross-section resists high shear stresses, making it suitable for sections vulnerable to damage from bolt drilling. Additionally, combining an FSK with bolts as shear connectors on a GFRP plate proves beneficial in preventing the fracture of the plate and improving the shear resistance.

PURPOSES : Previously, the expansion state of the concrete pavement in which AAR occurred could not be determined. Because the current situation has not been evaluated, it has been difficult to prepare an appropriate response. In this study, a method for calculating the expansion amount of concrete pavement using the stiffness damage test (SDT) is proposed. METHODS : The SDT method was examined through a literature review. For the laboratory tests, specimens that generated AAR were produced based on the mix design (2018) of the Korea Expressway Corporation. SDT was used to calculate various mechanical properties, and their correlation with the expansion amount was reviewed. RESULTS : Using the SDT, various mechanical properties(elastic modulus, hysteresis area, plastic deformation, plastic deformation index, stiffness damage index, and nonlinear index) were calculated based on the expansion rate of the AAR. The elastic modulus was evaluated as the best predictor of the expansion rate. Thus, if the elastic modulus is calculated using SDT, a prediction equation can be used to calculate the amount of AAR expansion. This equation will need to be supplemented by further research. CONCLUSIONS : SDT was used to confirm that the expansion state due to the AAR of the concrete pavement could be indirectly evaluated. Among the mechanical properties related to SDT, the elastic modulus was found to be the most suitable for predicting the amount of expansion.

Benthic attached diatoms (BADs), a major primary producer in lotic stream and river ecosystems are micro-sized organisms and require a highly magnified microscopic technique in the observation work. Thus, it is often not easy to ensure accuracy and precision in both qualitative and quantitative analyses. This study proposed a new technique applicable to improve quality control of aquatic ecosystem monitoring and assessment using BADs. In order to meet the purpose of quality control, we developed a permanent mounting slide technique which can be used for both qualitative and quantitative analyses simultaneously. We designed specimens with the combination of grid on both cover and slide glasses and compared their efficiency. As a result of observation and counting of BADs, the slide glass designed with the color-lined grid showed the highest efficiency compared to other test conditions. We expect that the method developed in this study could be effectively used to analyze BADs and contributed to improve the quality control in aquatic ecosystem health monitoring and assessment.

Recently, Korean government has introduced Multi Metric Indices (MMI) using various biocommunity information for aquatic ecosystem monitoring and ecosystem health assessment at the national level. MMI is a key tool in national ecosystem health assessment programs. The MMI consists of indices that respond to different target environmental factors, including environmental disturbance (e.g. nutrients, hydrological and hydraulic situation of site etc.). We used zooplankton community information collected from Korean lakes to estimate the availability of candidate zooplankton MMI indices that can be used to assess lake ecosystem health. First, we modified the candidate indices proposed by the U.S. EPA to suit Korean conditions. The modified indices were subjected to individual index suitability analysis, correlation analysis with environmental variables, and redundancy analysis among indices, and 19 indices were finally selected. Taxonomic diversity was suggested to be an important indicator for all three taxonomic groups (cladoceran, copepod, rotifer), on the other hand, the indices using biomass for large cladocerans and copepods, while the indices using abundance were suggested for small cladocerans and rotifers.

Freshwater and brackish blue-green algae were collected at 43 freshwater and brackish sites (including lakes, ponds, swamps, streams, and rivers and estuaries) throughout South Korea from March 2017 to October 2018, and were identified using light microscopy. A total 223 taxa in freshwater and 230 taxa in brackish waters in 2017 and 274 taxa in fresh and brackish waters in 2018 were identified and among them, 20 taxa were unreported taxa of blue-green algae in Korea; The new recorded taxa were Aphanocapsa marina, Calothrix fusca f. durabilis, Calothrix littoralis, Calothrix parva, Chamaesiphon minimus, Chroococcidiopsis cubana, Chroococcidiopsis fissurarum, Coelosphaerium aerugineum, Dolichospermum mendotae, Eucapsis alpine, Gomphosphaeria cordiformis, Gomphosphaeria natans, Merismopedia danubiana, Lynbya aestuarii var. gaditana, Tolypothrix tenuis, Pseudocapsa maritima, Pseudocapsa sphaerica, Pseudophormidium tenue, Trichodesmus sp. and Woronichinia elorantae.

Through sample-size-based rarefaction analyses, we tried to suggest the appropriate degree of sample concentration and sub-sample extraction, as a way to estimate more accurate zooplankton species diversity when assessing biodiversity. When we collected zooplankton from three reservoirs with different environmental characteristics, the estimated species richness (S) and Shannon’s Hʹ values showed different changing patterns according to the amount of sub-sample extracted from the whole sample by reservoir. However, consequently, their zooplankton diversity indices were estimated the highest values when analyzed by extracting the largest amount of sub-sample. As a result of rarefaction analysis about sample coverage, in the case of deep eutrophic reservoir (Juam) with high zooplankton species and individual numbers, it was analyzed that 99.8% of the whole samples were represented by only 1 mL of sub-sample based on 100 mL of concentrated samples. On the other hand, in Soyang reservoir, which showed very small species and individual numbers, a relatively low representation at 97% when 10 mL of sub-sample was extracted from the same amount of concentrated sample. As such, the representation of sub-sample for the whole zooplankton sample varies depending on the individual density in the sample collected from the field. If the degree of concentration of samples and the amount of subsample extraction are adjusted according to the collected individual density, it is believed that errors that occur when comparing the number of species and diversity indices among different water bodies can be minimized.

Estuary is important in terms of biodiversity because it has the characteristics of transition waters, created by the mixing of fresh- and seawater. The estuarine water circulation provides a variety of habitats with different environments by inducing gradients in the chemical and physical environment, such as water quality and river bed structure, which are ultimately the main factors influencing biological community composition. If the water circulation is interrupted, the loss of brackish areas and the interception of migration of biological communities will lead to changes in the spatial distribution of biodiversity. In this study, among the sites covered by the Estuary Aquatic Ecosystem Health Assessment, we selected study sites where changes in biodiversity can be assessed by spatial gradient from the upper reaches of the river to the lower estuarine area. The α-, γ- and β-diversity of diatom, benthic macroinvertebrates, and fish communities were calculated, and they were divided into open and closed estuary data and compared to determine the trends in biodiversity variation due to estuarine circulation. As results, all communities showed higher γ-diversity at open estuary sites. The benthic macroinvertebrate community showed a clear difference between open and closed estuaries in β-diversity, consequently the estuarine transects were considered as a factor that decreases spatial heterogeneity of their diversity among sites. The biodiversity trends analyzed in this study will be used to identify estuaries with low γ- and β-diversity by community, providing a useful resource for further mornitoring and management to maintain estuarine health.

이 글은 우리나라 대학 교양수업 중, ‘한자어’와 관련한 ‘원격수업’을 여하히 준비하여 유익하고 효과적인 학업-성취도를 이뤄낼 수 있을지에 초점을 맞추어 서술된 것이다. 다만, 글의 성격 상, 학술적 논의나 혹은 이론적 典據를 제시하여 논증하였다기보다, 실재 필자의 대학 교양수업 사례를 기반으로 작성된 것임을 차제에 밝힌다. 이미 우리나라는 2019년 감사원의 지적에 따라, 〈고등교육법〉 상 대학內 ‘원격수업’을 20%로 제한시켜 놓았다. 이유는 ‘출결 관리 미흡’, ‘고등교육의 질 저하로 인한 학력 격차 우려’, ‘시험 관리 부적절’ 등, 여러 측면에서 다양한 문제점이 야기될 수 있기 때문이었다. 더구나 작년(2020)부터 ‘코로나-팬데믹’으로 인한 비대면(원격) 수업이 점차 확대되면서, 기존의 우려는 필연적 과제만을 남겨놓았고, 교양과 전공을 불문한 채 다양한 강좌에서 다소 결이 다르기는 하나 문제점과 대안들을 내놓게 되었다. 본고는 이러한 상황에 직면하여 대학 교양수업 중 일상에서 자주 사용하는 ‘한자어’와 ‘어휘’를 어떻게 분류·선별하여 가장 효과적인 학습을 진행할 수 있을지를, 실재 수업 사례를 예시로 작성되 었다. 요즘 중·고교 현장 교사들도 학생들의 기초 학력 부재로 인하여 모든 교과마다 학업 성취도가 하락으로 이어지는 악순환이라고 한탄한다. 그러나 이는 대학교육에서도 마찬가지며, 원격수업은 교육의 질을 떨어뜨리는 원인이기도 하다. 이에 필자는 “원격수업은 인터넷 강의가 아님”을 전제하고, “원격수업 설계부터 학습전략, 그리 고 효율적인 운영 방안”을 체계적으로 구성해 보았다. 그리고 교수자가 원격(교양)수업에서 ‘한자어’와 ‘어휘’는 어떻게 선별함으로써 학습자들로부터 관심과 흥미를 이끌 수 있을지에 대하여 언급 해보았다. 그러나 무엇보다도 “교육의 질은 교수자(교사·교수)의 질을 능가할 수 없다”는 명제는 대면수업 이나 원격수업에서도 결코 외면할 수 없음을 인지하여, 교수자와 학습자 간의 ‘소통’이 원격수업의 성패를 가르는 가장 큰 요소임을 강조하는 것으로 글의 결말을 맺었다.

동물플랑크톤이 식물플랑크톤을 선택적으로 섭식하는 특성에 대한 이해는 수생태계 먹이사슬 내의 물질 이동에 중요하다. 하지만 해부를 통한 위내용물 추출 방법은 소형 요각류를 대상으로 적용하기에는 적절하지 않고, 유전자가 유실되거나 위내용물이 아닌 개체 외부의 유전자로 인해 오염될 가능성이 존재한다. 본 연구에서 호내 식물 플랑크톤 조성 및 기타 환경이 상이한 두 지점을 선정하여 모든 지점에서 지속적으로 출현하는 기수성 요각류인 Sinocalanus tenellus를 대상으로 위내용물의 유전자 분석을 수행하였다. 요각류 개체 외부의 DNA를 제거하는 데 2.5%로 희석한 시판용 표백제(차아염소산나트륨 5.4%) 에 2분간 처리하여 증류수로 2회 세척한 뒤 유전자를 추출하였다. 추출된 유전자는 23S rRNA을 증폭하여 서열분석을 실시하였다. Capillary sequencing 분석 결과, 원수와 처리수 및 요각류 위내용물에서 다양한 분류군 (규조강, 녹조 강, 남조강, 와편모조강, 은편모조강, 황갈조강)에 속하는 식물플랑크톤이 검출되었으며, 새만금호 내 시공간 차이에 따라 상이한 경향을 보였다. 현미경을 이용하여 동정한 식물플랑크톤 군집 조성의 경우 규조강이 우점한 반면, 동일한 원수의 유전자 분석 (capillary sequencing) 결과에서는 주로 녹조강, 남조강 및 와편모조강이 우점하여 다소 상반된 경향을 나타냈다. 본 연구에서 적용한 위내용물 분석에 특화된 외부 유전자 제거 전처리 방법은 농도와 처리시간 조절 등의 응용방법에 따라 다양한 동물플랑크톤 분류군에 적용이 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

호소 생태계에 대한 생물측정망 조사 및 평가지침은 동물플랑크톤 조사의 편의성을 고려하여 출현 종 수와 개체 군밀도, 군집 지수 등을 상대적으로 비교하기 위해 수심 5 m 이하의 얕은 호소-수변부에서 사선끌기, 수심 20 m 이상 호소-전수심 수직끌기, 그 이상의 깊은 호소-20 m까지의 수심을 대상으로 한 수직끌기를 제시하고 있다. 본 연구에 서는 지침에서 제시하는 방법 중 사선끌기법과 20 m 수직 끌기법을 각각 전수심을 대상으로 한 조사 방법과 비교하여 동물플랑크톤 군집 정보의 차이 및 특성에 대해 분석 하였다. 군집 지수의 경우 수심이 얕은 호수에서의 사선끌 기법/수직끌기법 비교에서는 차이를 보이지 않은 반면, 수 심이 깊은 호소에서는 끌기 수심을 20 m로 제한할 경우보다 전수심 수직끌기를 적용했을 때 다양도 및 풍부도 지수 가 상승하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 사선끌기 및 20 m 수직끌기를 통해 채집한 동물플랑크톤 시료로부터 표면~저층 상층부까지의 전수심을 채집 대상으로 설정한 경우보 다 약 3배 정도 높은 개체군 밀도가 계산되어, 동물플랑크톤 총 개체 밀도가 크게 과대 평가되는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 차이는 동물플랑크톤 수직 분포 특성상 발생하는 수층별 동물플랑크톤 개체 밀도 차이 및 여과된 원수량의 차이에서 비롯된 결과로 판단되며, 이에 따라 호소를 대변 하여 수체 간 또는 수체 내 변동을 보다 정확히 파악하고 호 내 2차 생산과 관련한 기능적 정량 지표로서 동물플랑크톤 군집 정보의 활용을 고려할 경우, 수심에 따른 개체 군밀도 분포와 전체 개체수 환산 시 수층별 기여율을 고려한 전수심 수직끌기 방법의 적용이 보다 적절할 것으로 분석되었다.
