This paper proposes a new Artificial-Intelligent(AI) Power Quality(PQ) diagnosis algorithm using Discrete Wavelet Transform(DWT), Fast Fourier Transform(FFT), Root-Mean-Square(RMS) value. The developed algorithm is able to detect and classify the PQ problems such as the transient, the voltage sag, the voltage swell, the voltage interruption and the total harmonics distortion. The 15.36[kHz] sampling frequency is used to measure the voltages in a power system. The measured signals are used for DWT, FFT, RMS calculation. For AI diagnosis of the PQ problems, a simple multi-layered Artificial Neural Network(ANN) with the back-propagation algorithm is adopted, programmed in C++ and tested in PSIM simulation studies. Finally, the algorithm, which is installed in MP PQ+256 with TI DSP320C6713, is proved to diagnose the PQ problems efficiently.

In an autonomous driving system equipped with a camera and lidar, depth completion techniques enable dense depth estimation. In particular, using self-supervised learning it is possible to train the depth completion network even without ground truth. In actual autonomous driving, such depth completion should have very short latency as it is the input of other algorithms. So, rather than complicate the network structure to increase the accuracy like previous studies, this paper focuses on network latency. We design a U-Net type network with RegNet encoders optimized for GPU computation. Instead, this paper presents several techniques that can increase accuracy during the process of self-supervised learning. The proposed techniques increase the robustness to unreliable lidar inputs. Also, they improve the depth quality for edge and sky regions based on the semantic information extracted in advance. Our experiments confirm that our model is very lightweight (2.42 ms at 1280x480) but resistant to noise and has qualities close to the latest studies.

Recently, various efforts and research are being conducted to integrated management of the estuary in Nakdong River. As one of such studies, measurement of opening discharge amount for each floodgate using a three-dimensional fixed ultrasonic flow meter is being conducted, but studies on hydraulic and statistical processing procedures and techniques using actual measurement results for calculating discharge amount by opening remain at the basic level. Therefore, in this study, a data processing technique using three-dimensional fixed ultrasonic flow meter measurement data was developed, the flow coefficient was calculated based on the measured data, and the applicability of the discharge amount calculation formula development was reviewed.

Development of an accident estimation model based on accident data can be made after accident occurrences. However, the taking of historical accident data is not easy, and there have been differences between real accident data and police-reported accident data. Also, another difficult shortcoming is that historical traffic accident data better consider driver behavior or intersection characteristics. A new method needs to be developed that can predict accident occurrences for traffic safety improvement in black spots. Traffic conflict decision techniques can acquire and analyze data in time and space, requiring less data collection through investigation. However, there are shortcomings: as existing traffic conflict techniques do not operate automatically, the analyst's opinion could easily affect the study results. Also, existing methods do not consider the severity of traffic conflicts. In this study, the authors presented traffic conflict decision criteria which consider conflict severity, including opposing left turn traffic conflict and cross traffic conflict decision criteria. In order to test these criteria, the authors acquired three signalized intersection images (two intersections in Sungnam city and one intersection in Paju) and analyzed the acquired images using image processing techniques based on individual vehicle tracking technology. Within the analyzed images, level 1 conflicts occurred 343 times over three intersections. Some of these traffic conflicts resulted in level 3 conflict situations. Level 3 traffic conflicts occurred 25 times. From the study results, the authors found that traffic conflict decision techniques can be an alternative to evaluate traffic safety in black spots.

This study is to systematically analyze the effect of various kinds of design parameters on heat transfer and pressure drop characteristics of heat exchanger with a slit fin. TAGUCHI method, known to us as a very reasonable tool in the parametric study, is employed in the present work. Experimental factors have been limited to seven cases, considering the production of sample and the cost. The 18 kinds of large scale models are made by compounding level on each factor and the heat transfer and flow characteristics on each model has been analyzed. The present results allow us to be able to quantitatively estimate the various parameters affecting the heat exchanger performance, and main factors for an optimum design of a heat exchanger have been selected. The optimum design value on each parameter was presented and the reproducibility on the results was guaranteed.

In the learning phase of multilyer feedforword neural network,there are problems such that local minimum,learning praralysis and slow learning speed when backpropagation algorithm used.To overcome these problems, the genetic algorithm has been used as learing method in the multilayer feedforword neural network instead of backpropagation algorithm.However,because the genetic algorith, does not have any mechanism for fine-tuned local search used in backpropagation method,it takes more time that the genetic algorithm converges to a global optimal solution.In this paper,we suggest a new GA-BP method which provides a fine-tunes local search to the genetic algorithm.GA-BP method uses gradient descent method as one of genetic algorithm's operators such as mutation or crossover.To show the effciency of the developed method,we applied it to the 3-parity bit problem with analysis.

With the proliferation of nonlinear loads, high neutral harmonic currents in three-phase four-wire distribution system have been observed. It has been known that the ground impedance has an effect on the neutral currents of a system which operates with harmonics present. On-site measurements of harmonic currents and voltages according to the fall-of-potential method under case study system were made and the ground impedance modeling using the pattern search method for the harmonic analysis was developed The ground impedance model obtained by the proposed method was compared with the frequency characteristics by field tests and has shown appropriate results, and would be applicable to evaluate the harmonic and transient response characteristics of the ground system.

Granular activated carbon(GAC) adsorption is one of the best available technology to remove synthetic organic chemicals(SOCs) from water supplies and wastewater. In order to satisfy enviromental criteria and reduce GAC treatment cost, optimal study of reverse stratified tapered adsorber(RSTA) has been conducted. The RSTA was found to provide on increase in breakthrough time when compared to a conventional cylindrical adsorber(CA). Through the RSTA optimal experiment, optimal mean bed velocity was decided 19.10cm/min and optimal angle was decided RSTA($3.0^{\circ}$). Adsorption efficiency was increased with increasing activated carbon doses and the number of activated carbon layers.

There are two case history. One is the case of 3 wells-group well system-drilled and artificially hydrofractured for dewatering to help to excavate and treat deep building foundation. The recoveries of groundwater of 3 wells are increased 29%, 42% and 110% respectively through hydrofracturing. Simultaneous pumping test reveals that 3 wells are geohydrologically interconnected considering lowered specific capacity comprising influence of additional drawdown effect by other 2 wells compared to single well test. Response time effect during single well test shows that dorminant lineaments are more expandable to other geological structures. The other one is the case of 28% increasing of groundwater productivity for domestic use by hydrofracturing.

우리나라 지하수 관리 정책의 기조는 지속가능한 미래 청정 지하수의 체계적인 보전 및 관리 기반을 강화하는 것이다. 이를 위해 지하수의 지속적인 조사, 관측 및 체계적인 개발, 이용이 이루어지도록 추진중에 있다. 한편, 현재 우리나라의 지하수 개발가능량은 10년빈도 갈수시 소유역의 연간 함양량으로 정하고 있으며 이와 같은 기준은 1996년 지하수 관리 기본계획시 정해진 기준이다. 현재 우리나라의 지하수 함양량 산정은 기저유출분리법, 물수지 분석법, 지하수위 강하곡선법, 분포형 수문모형기법 중 한 가지를 사용하도록 기초조사 지침에 명기되어 있으며 함양량으로부터 개발가능량을 추론하고 있는 실정이다. 그러나 대부분의 결과는 주로 유역 규모의 연단위 대표 함양량을 추정하는 데 주안점을 두고 있어 개정지하수법 6조 2항에 의해 시군구 단위에서 수행하는 지역 지하수 관리 계획 수립과 같은 세부계획에는 활용이 어려운 것이 사실이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 분포형 지표수-지하수 결합모형인 SWAT-MODFLOW 모형을 이용하여 10년 빈도 갈수년에 해당하는 함양량으로부터 시군구별 개발가능량을 산정하고 이를 지역의 이용수량과 비교하여 과부족을 평가할 수 있는 방안을 제시하였다.
