Abstract: A method of calculating a collision risk of a ship according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may include: calculating an available velocity area based on maneuvering performance of a host ship; calculating a velocity obstacle area where there is a possibility of collision between an object and the host ship; and calculating a collision risk based on at least one of the available velocity area, the velocity obstacle area, and a preset weight.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an image encoding and decoding technique, and more particularly, to an image encoder and decoder using unidirectional prediction. The image encoder includes a dividing unit to divide a macro block into a plurality of sub-blocks, a unidirectional application determining unit to determine whether an identical prediction mode is applied to each of the plurality of sub-blocks, and a prediction mode determining unit to determine a prediction mode with respect to each of the plurality of sub-blocks based on a determined result of the unidirectional application determining unit.

Abstract: Disclosed is a heat exchanger configured by laminating layers having micro-channels by adapting a micromachining, wherein the micro-channels having uniform length and cross section are constructed within a heat exchanger body in a curved outer shape, thereby minimizing deviation for each channel and improving heat transfer efficiency.
