목적: 본 연구는 역동적 신체 활동 상황에서 HMD 기반 가상현실 기기 내부의 온·습도 및 열지수를 실시간 측정하 고, 이러한 환경 변화가 안구건조증과 시각적 불편감에 미치는 영향을 규명하는 데 목적이 있다. 이를 통해 활동형 VR 사용 시 안전성 확보와 열·습도 관리 기반의 최적화된 VR 환경 설계의 근거를 제시하고자 한다. 방법 : 체육계열 대학생 28명을 대상으로 수행되었으며, Oculus Quest2를 이용한 역동적 VR 복싱 콘텐츠 수 행 중 HMD 내부 온도·습도 및 열파지수를 Arduino–DHT11 기반 센서로 2.5초 간격으로 실시간 측정하였다. 참 가자는 안정 상태, 운동 상태, 회복 상태 각 15분씩 총 45분간 실험에 참여하였고, 심박수는 스마트밴드를 통해 목 표 운동 강도 범위(30~50% HRR)로 유지되었다. 안구건조증 평가는 실험 전·후 비침습적 눈물막 파괴시간(NI BUT), Schirmer 검사, OSDI 설문을 통해 객관·주관 지표를 모두 수집하였다. 통계 분석은 대응표본 t-검정과 카이제곱 검정을 사용하였으며 유의수준은 p>0.050로 설정하였다. 결과 : 연구 대상자(평균 23.44세)는 VR 사용 전후 NI BUT과 Schirmer 검사에서 유의한 변화가 나타나지 않았으나(p>0.050), OSDI 점수는 실험 후 유의하게 증가하여 주관적 안구 불편감이 상승한 것으로 확인되었다 (p>0.050). HMD 내부 환경 분석에서는 운동 직후 초기 구간(15~18분)에서 온도, 습도, 열지수의 변화율이 가 장 크게 증가하여(p<0.001) 역동적 신체 활동이 VR 장치 내부 미세환경에 즉각적이고 급격한 변화를 유발함을 보여주었다. 이후 구간에서는 환경 변화 속도가 완만해지며 점차 안정화되는 경향을 보였다. 종합하면, 단기간의 고강도 VR 사용은 내부 열·습도 환경의 급격한 변동과 더불어 사용자의 주관적 시각적 피로 증가와 관련됨을 시사한다. 결론 : 고강도 신체 활동 시 VR HMD 내부의 온·습도 및 열파지수는 급격히 상승하여 열적 불편감과 시각적 피로를 더욱 유발한다. 운동 종료 후에는 빠르게 회복되는 가역적 특성을 보였음으로 이러한 결과는 활동형 VR 사 용 시 휴식·환기 전략의 필요성과 안전성 기반의 HMD 설계 및 사용자 관리 지침 마련의 중요성을 제시한다.

The proliferation of human activities in outer space has fostered technological progress while creating a serious challenge: space debris. This paper examines the legal complexities of active debris removal (ADR) as a means to reduce collision risks and ensure the long-term sustainability of space operations. ADR is now technologically feasible, but its implementation faces legal, technical, and economic hurdles. Current international law, notably the Outer Space Treaty and the Liability Convention, lacks explicit provisions on ADR responsibilities and liabilities, complicating cooperation and cost sharing. The absence of a universally accepted definition of space debris further hinders regulatory clarity and ownership issues. To address these challenges, the paper evaluates potential governance futures and proposes establishing a new international legal regime under the UN Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space. Modeled on institutions including the International Civil Aviation Organization, such a regime would clarify liability, set standards, and strengthen cooperation for sustainable space use.

전기화학적 탄소 포집은 에너지 집약적인 열역학적 공정에 대한 유망한 대안으로, 등온 운전 및 재생 에너지원과 의 통합을 가능하게 한다. 그러나 주로 드롭 캐스팅 기술에 의존하는 현재의 전극 제조 방식은 확장성을 제한하고 활물질과 전도성 물질 사이의 불균일한 계면으로 인해 전도 경로의 효율을 저해한다. 본 연구에서는 확장 가능한 전기화학적 탄소 포집 응용 분야를 위해 전기화학적 CO2 반응 특성을 가짐과 동시에 용액 공정이 가능하고 산화-환원 활성을 가지는 폴리이미드 (redox-active polyimides, RAP)의 첫 번째 사례를 보고한다. 합성된 RAP는 N-메틸-2-피롤리돈(N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, NMP) 및 N,N-디메틸포름아미드(N,N-dimethylformamide, DMF)와 같은 유기 용매에서 우수한 용액 가공성을 보였으며, 용해도는 산화-환원 활성 유닛을 가지는 단량체의 조성에 따라 달랐다. 질소 및 이산화탄소 포화 조건에서 수행된 순환 전압전류법 실 험을 통해 CO2 대기 조건에서 반파 전위의 뚜렷한 변화를 관찰하였으며, 이는 RAP의 CO2 분자와의 반응성을 입증해주는 결 과이다. 용액 가공성, 산화-환원 활성, CO2 반응성의 조합은 RAP를 대규모 전기화학적 탄소 포집 시스템에서 활용 가능한 유 망한 후보로 자리매김하여 효과적인 CO2 제거 성능을 유지하면서 전극 호환성과 제조 확장성 측면에서 중요한 과제를 해결 할 수 있다.

Akaganeite (β-FeOOH) and hybrid active materials (akaganeite/maghemite (γ-Fe2O3)) containing carbon nanoparticles have been successfully developed through hydrothermal process using oxidation debris of graphene oxide and iron (II) chloride tetrahydrate. The obtained akaganeite sample and the hybrid material containing 29% akaganeite and 71% maghemite were confirmed using Mӧssbauer analysis. Two types of cathode made of akaganeite (β-FeOOH) and hybrid active materials supported on reduced graphene oxide (RGO) for RGO/AKA-100 and RGO/AKA-29 were taken as the main air electrode. The full-cell zinc–air battery prototypes (with 6 M KOH electrolyte) were tested for 500 cycles at room temperature. The result showed that the discharge capacity was achieved as high as 131.05 mAh/cm2 for RGO/AKA-100 and 137.26 mAh/ cm2 for RGO/AKA-29. These performances are better than that using zinc–air batteries with carbon black/MnO2 (CB/ MnO2) as air cathode, that give a discharge capacity of 115.7 mAh/cm2. The charge–discharge efficiency of RGO/AKA-100 and RGO/AKA-29 was examined in relation to their distinct catalytic activity for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) when incorporated into electrochemically rechargeable zinc–air batteries. In addition, the different morphology of zinc deposit and dendrite was characterized using SEM, TEM, and PXRD analysis. From this study, the high performance of active material was suggested to be due to the hybrid effect among akaganeite, maghemite, and reduced graphene oxide, which can produce a synergetic improvement.

Active electronically scanned array (AESA) multi-function radars (MFRs) comprise numerous transmit/receive modules (TRMs) whose maximum temperature and temperature uniformity must be tightly controlled. This study proposes a new liquid-cooling-plate flow-channel design for an X-band AESA MFR: a two-layer straight channel incorporating multiple fins irregularly spaced along the flow channel. The proposed design (Type-4) is compared with three baseline channel designs. At the same coolant flow rate, Type-4 reduces the TRM maximum temperature by 28.2 K and the maximum inter-module temperature difference by 19.7 K relative to Type-1. However, the pressure drop increases by 726% because of the added internal surfaces and fins which are flow obstructions. A comprehensive thermo-hydraulic comparison, including pumping power criteria, is conducted over multiple flow-rate conditions. Overall performance was highest for Type-4, followed by Type-2, Type-3, and Type-1. When designs achieve similar maximum temperature and temperature difference with various coolant flowrate condition, Type-2 requires 83.6% less pumping power than Type-1, and Type-4 requires 33.8% less pumping power than Type-2.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the vibration phenomenon occurring in the structure such as a ship with the hemispherical substructure and operating at fixed frequency, and to suggest the active vibration control method using the Fx-LMS algorithm to reduce vibration amplification. In order to study the possibility of reducing vibration in the hemispherical structure, the active vibration control model was developed and a vibration control experimental device for the hemispherical structure was constructed. The narrowband Fx-LMS algorithm was developed to enable precise real-time control at a specific frequency, and the secondary path for dynamic control was modeled with two coefficients per frequency. The experimental device is equipped with three exciters, six 3-axis actuators, and six 3-axis error sensors, which can acquire 18 error sensor signals. Real-time secondary path tracking was possible with the secondary path consisting of two coefficients and the control algorithm, and effective vibration control performance was confirmed through this. And the experimental results of active vibration control of the exciter for three frequencies showed that the exciter vibration was reduced by a minimum of 63.7% and a maximum of 97.7%, which shows the possibility of reducing the vibration of the structure in real time using the proposed method.

We present a comprehensive solar flare forecast model with a probability and a statistically significant range of daily peak X-ray flux. For this, we consider μ-corrected total unsigned radial magnetic fluxes from the SOHO/MDI and SDO/HMI, and flare lists from GOES from 1996 to 2021. Our model predicts two types of forecast results when a magnetic flux of an active region (AR) is given. First, using a relationship between magnetic fluxes and flaring rates, a probability of C1.0 or greater flares and a probability of M1.0 or greater flares within a day are predicted respectively. Second, a mean (μ) and standard deviation (σ) of daily peak X-ray fluxes are given from a historical distribution between magnetic fluxes and daily peak X-ray fluxes. Using the mean and standard deviation, we provide the statistical range of possible flare sizes. We verify two forecast results by using various performance metrics and investigate the performance depending on the climatology event rate. Based on the metric values, our model can give a better performance than the climatology forecast. Solar flares are considered to be caused by specific triggers and physical mechanisms that have not yet been precisely identified. In addition, there is another perspective that the size of the flare that will occur due to a trigger is close to random because the flaring loop is in a self-organized critical state. Our model can give the simplest forecasting results considering these two perspectives.

In this study, an active vibration control experiment was conducted on a display manufacturing system weighing approximately 15 tons. Three pneumatic shakers were installed underneath the equipment to excite the entire structure at three different frequencies. On the top side of the equipment, four inertial-type electromagnetic actuators capable of generating forces in the x, y, and z directions were mounted, enabling 12 degrees of freedom to be controlled. At locations near the actuators, four tri-axial accelerometers were installed to obtain 12 error signals. Vibrations at three distinct frequencies induced by the pneumatic shakers were measured at these 12 locations using the accelerometers. Active vibration control was performed by driving the inertial actuators using a narrow-band Fx-LMS algorithm to reduce the measured error signals. As a result of the control, the vertical vibration at 24 Hz was successfully reduced by 10.95 dB.

In this study, a response model of a beam structure was established through finite element analysis by analyzing the vibration response to external excitation. The vibration control performance of the beam was then evaluated by applying the narrow-band Fx-LMS algorithm for active structural control. The transfer function was obtained at the error sensor location when the structure was excited and the three-axis actuator was operated. The performance of the active control was investigated with 18 channels for error input and actuator output. When the equipment is exciting, the response of the error sensor is the primary path, and when the inertial 3-axis actuator operates, the response of the error sensor position is the secondary path, and the Fx-LMS algorithm is applied. The simulation was performed by changing the control parameters so that the response of the error sensor can satisfy the target performance. From the results of this study, the acceleration results over time showed about 70% vibration reduction after active control, and the average error value of the error sensor also decreased by about 68%. In addition, it was confirmed that real-time control of a system with 18 sensors and 18 actuators is possible even if the secondary path is configured in two orders.
