The security accidents occurring in ships and at seas and ports became very serious, and in particular, the maritime terrorism and abduction by pirates have emerged at the international level as a problem. The international maritime organization (IMO), accordingly, entered into such forces as the SOLAS chapter and measures in order to reinforce the maritime security and the security for ships and port facilities in 2004. In this study, the JDS-S4 improved as an oriented speaker to reinforce the ship security by enabling the clear communication even at long distance was tested by using the conducted emission test(CE101) and a standard test of the US military standard (MIL-STD-461F). Also, the result of this study was shown to satisfy the standard.

The purpose of this study is to enhance heat insulation effect and to decrease fire hazard by attaching aluminum foil to expanded polystyrene, which is mainly used for insulating materials, to have fire retardant. The result of the test confirmed that the insulating materials, expanded polystyrene of 10 kg/m3 and 14 kg/m3 of density attached aluminum foil on both sides, showed 12%, 14% of improved heat transfer coefficient respectively compared to existing expanded polystyrene of the same density. Besides, they met all the standards for the testing of heat release and gas hazard. On the other hand, the one made of general expanded polystyrene could not meet the standards of the heat release test and the gas hazard test.

Even though chlorine dioxide (ClO2) is utilized in a pre-treatment due to its effective sterilizing activity for microorganisms and its safety for food, it has a limitation in maintaining freshness of the food product. In this study, a low-concentration ClO2 gas was produced in a packaging form of air-permeable gel pack so that it could be released continuously over several days. The amount of ClO2 gas emission and microbial inactivation effect against foodborne pathogens were measured during the release of ClO2 gas. As a result of measuring the change of color in order to confirm whether the chlorine dioxide gas was eluted in the form of a sustained release, the yellowness was significantly higher at higher gel pack concentration and higher value during storage periods. The slow-released ClO2 gel-pack showed clear inactivation effect against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus with 99.9% inactivation efficiency. As a result of measuring the sterilization effect of Listeria monocytogenes by the concentration of chlorine dioxide gas, the sterilization effect was increased as the concentration was increased. Therefore, the slow-released ClO2 gel-pack is feasible to apply for industry usages.

To characterize testing bags for the interior parts and components of new vehicles, three types kinds of bags (Tedlar bag, Polyester Al bag, and PET bag) were selected and investigated.. All testing bags were initially purged with 5 L of pure nitrogen gas. Then, they were heated consecutively for four times in a chamber at 60 and 100℃ at hourlys intervals. Changes in background concentration levels of VOCs and HCHO were then measured. After the 4th heat treatment at 100℃, the background concentrations in PET bag were lower by 5 times than the ftrst time treatment. The results of PET bags were superior to the other bags under the same treatment conditions. Even without heat treatment test, the background concentrations of PET bag was also lower than the others by 2 to 6 times. Based on our results, it can be concluded that the PET bag is the most suitable for sample tests as it is physically the most stable along with the lowest background of all 3 sample bags with the least bias.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the mechanical behaviors and structural integrity of the weldment of high strength steel by using an acoustic emission (AE) techniques. Monotonic simple tension and AE tests were conducted against the 3 kinds of welded specimen. In order to analysis the effectiveness of weldability, joinability and structural integrity, we used K-means clustering method as a unsupervised learning pattern recognition algorithm for obtained multi-variate AE main data sets, such as AE counts, energy, amplitude, hits, risetime, duration, counts to peak and rms signals. Through the experimental results, the effectiveness of the proposed method is discussed.

The purpose of this study is to optimize an emission test method for building materials and to understand the characteristics of total volatile organic compounds (TVOC) and carbonyl compounds emission from building materials, especially solid-phase building materials, using a small chamber test method. As a result of the evaluation for small chamber system, temperature and humidity was maintained constantly at 24.5℃, 50.2%. The background concentration of total volatile organic compounds and formaldehyde were also controlled below 20 ㎍/㎥ and 0.5 ㎍/㎥, respectively. Air leakage of emission test chamber and the duplicate precision between two emission test chambers were satisfied. As a result of evaluation for sampling and analysis system (such as the breakthrough test), repeatability of response factor, and retention time in GC/MS and HPLC, desorption efficiency, method detection limits were excellent. The concentration of total volatile organic compounds emitted from wallpapers (made of PVC) was higher at 25℃ than at 23℃. Also, the concentration of formaldehyde emitted from floorings made from non-PVC (wood-based) was higher at 25℃ than at 23℃. On the other hand, there was not a significant difference between the concentrations of total volatile organic compounds emission from wallpaper (made of PVC) which was stored for 2 weeks at 25℃ and 4℃ with tight sealing. In conclusion, emission characteristics of TVOC and formaldehyde from solid-phase building materials would be expected to apply to the plan for the management of indoor air quality.

응력부식균열(SCC) 감수성평가를 위한 여러 시험방법들중 저변형율시험방법은 비교적 ?은 시간내에 금속재료의 SCC감수성을 평가하기 위한 효과적인 시험방법이다. 그러나 저변형율 시험방법만으로 SCC과정의 미시적 파괴거동ㅇ르 분석하는 것은 매우 어렵다. 종래, 음향방출(AE)시험은 재료의 파괴과정시 미시균열의 개시 및 전파거동을 감시하는데 유효한 기법으로 잘 알려져 있다. 그러므로 본 논문에서는 저변형율시험과 음향방출시험을 이용하여 SCC의 전파과정과 AE신호 특성사이의 상호관계를 분석하였다. 실험결과, 재료의 미시파괴 과정에서 발생하는 AE신호들은 뚜렷히 시험환경에 의존하였으며, 인공해수중에서 SCC과정시 발생된 AE신호 특성은 Air상태 보다 상당히 크게 나타났다. 그리고 SCC거동은 AE신호의 진폭인자로서 명확하게 평가할 수 있다.
