Effective cooling strategies are critical for cultivating high-quality ornamental plants during the summer. The fan-and-pad cooling system reduces greenhouse temperatures by drawing air through wet pads, which humidify and cool the air, aided by fans on the opposite side. However, the paper-based pads (corrugated cellulose) used in this system have limited durability and degrade with prolonged use. Nanocomposite hydrogels, with their polymer-based structure, can absorb and retain moisture through swelling, presenting a promising alternative. This study examines the application of nanocomposite hydrogels, focusing on their hygroscopic properties and cooling efficiency under various temperatures and wind speeds. When treated with lithium chloride solutions at 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% saturation, higher LiCl concentrations reduced weight but increased swelling capacity. Optimal cooling effects were achieved with wind speeds of 1.0 m/s at 25°C and 1.5 m/s at 35°C, with greater efficiency observed at lower wind speeds. These findings suggest that integrating nanocomposite hydrogels into cooling pads could enhance durability and reduce maintenance compared with conventional paper pads.

상수도 시스템에서의 사고 발생은 사용자들의 물 이용 불편으로 인해 막대한 사회경제적 피해를 초래할 수 있는 위협 요인이며, 따라서 수도사업자들은 수도정비기본계획 등을 통해 상수도 사고를 빠르게 복구하고, 피해 규모를 최소화하기 위한 다양한 노력을 기울이고 있다. 본 연구는 상수도 시스템에서 발생하는 관로사고 상황에 대하여 회복탄력성을 정량적으로 평가하고, 비상급수 방안을 포함한 사고 대응 전략의 효과를 분석하기 위한 평가 모형을 개발하였다. 개발 모형은 시스템의 회복탄력성에 기여하는 다양한 특성들을 반영할 수 있는 시간단위 공급 부족량과 충족률 지표를 통해 회복탄력성을 평가하며, 국내 지방상수도 시스템의 특정 구역을 대상으로 관로사고 시나리오를 모의하여 개발 모형의 적용 효과를 검증하였다. 결과적으로 개발 모형을 통해 비상연계관로, 배수지 충수, 병물 공급 등 비상대응 방안의 효과를 정량적으로 평가하였으며, 이를 통해 시스템의 회복탄력성 향상을 위한 설계 및 운영 전략 수립의 가능성을 확인하였다.

This study was conducted to analyze New Zealand’s beekeeping industry and Manuka honey grading system to suggest characteristics and development plans for Korea’s honey grading system. Manuka honey in New Zealand is harvested from the Manuka tree (Leptospermum scoparium). It is known for its various bioactive properties, including antimicrobial activity and antioxidants. Since 2017, the New Zealand government has been implementing national certification and grading for all exported Manuka honey. For this purpose, compositions of Manuka honey across New Zealand have been investigated and four chemical indicators and one biological indicator have been established. Currently, Korea has been fully implementing a honey grading system since September 2023, which divides honey (acacia honey, chestnut honey, and miscellaneous honey) into 1+ grade, 1 grade, and 2 grade according to Enforcement Rules of the Livestock Act. The following seven indicators are used: carbon isotope consumption, moisture content, sugar ratio, hydroxytmethylfurfural, flavor, chromaticity, and defects, similar to Codex standards or European standards. However, details are modified to suit Korean conditions. To make the Korean honey grading system more stable, it is necessary to develop and introduce different indicators for honey functionality and honey grading system maturity. In addition, it is necessary to expand the participation of farmers in the honey grading system, secure consumer trust in the honey grading system, and continue to promote it.

항공기의 활주로 이탈 사고는 대형 인명사고로 이어지고 막대한 재산 피해를 유발한다. 항공기 이탈 사고 중 활주로 끝부분에서 발 생하는 사고를 방지하기 위해 국제민간항공기구(ICAO, International Civil Aviation Organization) 및 미국연방항공청(FAA, Federal Aviation Administration)에서는 활주로 끝단에 종단안전구역(RESA, Runway End Safety Area)를 설치하도록 규정하고 있다. 그러나 대규모 공항 건설시 산악, 해상, 호수와 같은 지형적 여건과 인접한 도로, 철도와 같은 인공시설물과의 간섭으로 충분한 종단안전구역 확보에 어려움이 있어, 이를 극복하기 위해 활주로 이탈방지포장시스템(이하 EMAS, Engineered Materials Arresting System)이 개발 되었고 현재까지 해외공항 140여 곳에 적용되었다. 국내는 기준에 맞는 종단안전구역 확보에 어려움이 있는 울릉공항, 흑산공항 및 백령공항 등, 해상에 건설되는 소형공항에 적용이 검토 되고 있다. 본 논문은 해외에 활용된 활주로 EMAS의 제품 특성을 소개하고 국내도입시 고려사항을 검토하여 국내 적용방안을 제안하고자 한다.

The high-level radioactive waste repository must ensure its performance for a long period of time enough to sufficiently reduce the potential risk of the waste, and for this purpose, multibarrier systems consisting of engineered and natural barrier systems are applied. If waste nuclides leak, the dominating mechanisms facilitating their movement toward human habitats include advection, dispersion and diffusion along groundwater flows. Therefore, it is of great importance to accurately assess the hydrogeological and geochemical characteristics of the host rock because it acts as a flow medium. Normally, borehole investigations were used to evaluate the characteristics and the use of multi-packer system is more efficient and economical compared to standpipes, as it divides a single borehole into multiple sections by installing multiple packers. For effective analyses and groundwater sampling, the entire system is designed by preselecting sections where groundwater flow is clearly remarkable. The selection is based on the analyses of various borehole and rock core logging data. Generally, sections with a high frequency of joints and evident water flow are chosen. Analyzing the logging data, which can be considered continuous, gives several local points where the results exhibit significant local changes. These clear deviations can be considered outliers within the data set, and machine learning algorithms have been frequently applied to classify them. The algorithms applied in this study include DBSCAN (density based spatial clustering of application with noise), OCSVM (one class support vector method), KNN (K nearest neighbor), and isolation forest, of which are widely used in many applications. This paper aims to evaluate the applicability of the aforementioned four algorithms to the design of multi-packer system. The data used for this evaluation were obtained from DB-2 borehole logging data, which is a deep borehole locates near KURT.

In this study, the effect of crown heating on the cultivation environment, budding, flowering and yields of strawberry was analyzed. In December, January, and February, when the outside temperature was low, the average strawberry crown temperature at daytime in the test zone was 1.3°C higher than that in the control zone, and the average strawberry crown temperature at nighttime in the test zone was 2.7°C higher than that in the control zone. The average bed temperature at daytime in test zone was 1.7°C higher than that in the control zone, and the average bed temperature at nighttime in test zone was 2.4°C higher than that in the control zone. As a result of performing correlation analysis and regression analysis on strawberry crown temperature and budding period, the correlation coefficient was -0.86, which tended to be shorter as the crown temperature was higher, and the determination coefficient was 0.74. The total yields of strawberry during test period were 392.6 g/plant for test greenhouse and 346.0 g/plant for control greenhouse respectively. As for the quality of strawberries, the ratio of 2L (very large) grades and L (large) grades was 62.4% in the test greenhouse and 58.5% in the control greenhouse, indicating that the proportion of high quality strawberries was higher in the test greenhouse.

자율운항선박 기술은 점차 발전하고 있다. 하지만 완전 자율운항선박이 등장하기 전까지는 원격운영센터에서 원격운영자가 제 어하는 형태를 가지게 될 것이다. 그러나 현재 그들의 면허체계는 국내외적으로 정해지지 않았다. 역량이 검증되지 않은 원격운영자의 등 장은 항행 안전에 위험이 될 것이다. 본 논문에서는 문헌 연구를 통해 원격운영자의 면허체계를 위해 고려해야 할 평가기준과 국내 해기 사 면허체계 내에서 수립할 수 있는 방안을 모색하고 AHP를 활용하여 분석하였다. 그 결과 원격운영자의 면허체계를 위해서는 우선적으 로 법률제정이 필요하고 선박직원법 제4조 해기사 면허의 직종에 원격운영자의 직종을 추가하는 방안이 가장 선호되었다. 이에 따라 원 격운영센터의 조직구성도 기존 선박의 선교인적관리 조직과 유사하게 형성할 수 있을 것이다. 본 연구는 자율운항선박의 인적 관리 측면 에서 원격운영자의 효율적인 양성과 항행 안전에 이바지할 수 있을 것이다.

The Severe Disaster Punishment Act had recently been established in order to promote safety and health (OSH) management system for severe accident prevention. OSH management system is primarily designed based on risk assessments; however, companies in industries have been experiencing difficulties in hazard identification and selecting proper measures for risk assessments and accident prevention. This study intended to introduce an accident analysis method based on epidemiological model in finding hazard and preventive measures. The accident analysis method employed in this study was proposed by the U.S. Department of Energy. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the accident analysis method, this study applied it to two accident cases occurred in construction and manufacturing industries. The application process and results of this study can be utilized in improving OSH management system and preventing severe accidents.
