The Investment to road projects has been a hot issue in the aspect of its possible overlapping or overinvestment in Korea. Therefore, additional road construction is not always accepted in these days. This paper investigated several indices including the country index and the road-extension rate index as well as a newly developed index for identifying and comparing road stocks among the OECD countries. Furthermore, the study has estimated some reasonable amount of additional road stocks of Korea when its GDP becomes twenty thousands per capita to forty thousands per capita in future by comparing the amount of stacks of OECD countries at those times. The result can be used for setting the target of road stocks in practical manner in the absence of the universally accepted theory in the road stock provision arena.

국외에서 산지재해를 예방하기 위해 하천 유사량을 계측하는 기존의 재래식 채집기의 문제점을 보완한 간접계측장치인 하이드로폰의 개발 및 실용화를 위한 연구를 수행하고 있다. 하지만 국내의 경우 유사량을 계측하는 기술 수준은 선진국에 비해 기초단계에 머물러 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 국내에서 사용하기 적합한 간접계측장치를 개발하고자 한다. 간접계측장치인 하이드로폰은 횡단구조물의 끝단에 부착하여 설치하는 형태로 개발하였다. 충돌음향 계측을 위한 센서부는 파이프와 마이크로폰으로 구성하였으며, 구조물에 부착하기 위한 고정프레임과 연결장치로 제작되었다. 설치된 계측장치는 하상에서 이동중인 토사가 파이프에 충돌할 때 발생하는 소음을 계측하며 충돌음은 데이터로거로 취득된다. 계측된 음향 데이터는 정확한 소류사량 추정을 위해 충돌 횟수에 착안한 펄스 분석 방법과 진폭의 시간 적분치에 착안한 음압적분치 방법으로 비교·검토를 수행하였다. 소류사량 추정 관계식의 유의성 분석을 수행한 후 펄스 수 기반 추정 관계식과 음압적분치 기반 추정 관계식을 공급 소류사량과 비교시 각각 29%와 33%의 오차율을 나타내는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 앞서 선정된 소류사량 추정 관계식의 신뢰성을 확보하기 위해 관계식으로 추정할 수 있는 예측구간 및 95% 신뢰구간을 분석하였으며, 분석 결과 펄스 수 기반 추정 관계식은 92.5%, 음압적분치 기반 추정 관계식은 90.9%로 두 관계식 모두 소류사량을 추정하기에 양호한 수준으로 일치하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 향후 추가적인 연구를 수행한다면 수문조사 시 부족했던 유사량 측정분야의 확대에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 예상되며, 이와 관련된 사업 및 기술발전에도 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

A system with the ability to recognize potential key blocks during tunnel construction by analyzing the rock face was developed in this study. This system predicts the formation of key blocks in advance and evaluates their safety factors. A laser scanner was used to collect a three-dimensional point cloud of the rock face, which was then utilized to model the excavation surface and derive the joint surfaces. Because joint surfaces have specific strikes and dip angles, the key blocks formed by these surfaces are deduced through iterative calculations, and the safety factor of each key block can be calculated accordingly. The model experiments confirmed the accuracy of the system's output in terms of the joint surface characteristics. By inputting the joint surface information, the calculated safety factors were compared with those from the existing commercial software, demonstrating stable calculation results within a 1% error margin.

This study proposed a prediction equation for the estimation of blasting vibaration and blasting noise, utilizing 320 datasets for the blasting vibration and blasting noise acquired during urban blasting works in the Incheon, Suwon, Wonju, and Yangsan regions. The proposed blasting vibration prediction equation, derived from regression analysis, indicated correlation coefficients of 0.879 and 0.890 for SRSD and CRSD, respectively, with an R² value exceeding 0.7. In the case of the blasting noise prediction equation, stepwise regression analysis yielded a correlation coefficient of 0.911 between the prediction values and real measurements for the blasting nosie, and further analysis to determine the constant value revealed a correlation coefficient of 0.881, with an R² value also exceeding 0.7. These results suggest the feasibility of applying the proposed prediction equations when environmental impact assessments or education environment evaluation according to urban development or apartment construction projects is performed.

Recently, the patterns of climate change-induced disasters have become more diverse and extensive. To develop an effective flood control plan, Korea has incorporated the concept of Potential Flood Damage (PFD) into the Long-Term Comprehensive Water Resources Plan to assess flood risk. However, concerns regarding the PFD have prompted numerous studies. Previous research primarily focused on modifying and augmenting the PFD index or introducing new indices. This study aims to enhance the existing flood control safety evaluation method by utilizing a flood risk map that incorporates risk indices, specifically focusing on the Yeong-Seomjin river basin. The study introduces three main evaluation approaches: risk and potential analysis, PFD and flood management level analysis, and flood control safety evaluation. The proposed improved evaluation method is expected to be instrumental in evaluating various flood control safety measures and formulating flood control plans.

Countries around the world are making active efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Korea is also pursuing a policy of abolishing aging coal power and converting it to LNG power generation. However, in Korea, gas turbine manufacturing technology has not been localized, so all of it is imported and installed from overseas manufacturers. Therefore, this paper examines the domestic and foreign environment of the gas turbine power generation industry and proposes a strategy to develop and expand the supply of Korean gas turbine technology by applying the PEST-SWOT-AHP methodology. As a result of the research, the strategy to develop and expand the supply of Korean gas turbine technology can be summarized as 1) strengthening the role of power generation public enterprises to develop and promote commercialization of gas turbine technology, 2) expanding the proportion of LNG power generation to reduce greenhouse gases, 3) the government's active efforts to create an ecosystem for the gas turbine industry, and 4) forming a public consensus on the construction of LNG power plants.

In this study, we introduce a linear spectral method capable of simulating wave generation and transformation caused by a moving bottom in a 3-dimensional space. The governing equations are linear dynamic free-surface boundary conditions and linear kinematic free-surface boundary conditions, which are solved in Fourier space. Solved velocity potential and free-surface displacement should satisfy continuity equation and kinematic bottom boundary condition. For numerical analysis, a 4th order Runge-Kutta method was utilized to analyze the time integral. The results obtained in Fourier space can be converted into velocity potential and free-surface displacement in a real space using inverse Fourier transform. Regular waves generated by various types of moving bottoms were simulated with the linear spectral method. Additionally, obliquely generated regular waves using specified bottom movements were simulated. The results obtained from the spectral method were compared to analytical solutions, showing good agreement between the two.

This study presents a novel method for addressing the issue of high-concentration contaminants (ammonium, phosphate, antibiotics) in leachate arising from decomposing livestock carcasses. Antibiotics, developed to eliminate microorganisms, often have low biodegradability and can persist in the ecosystem. This research proposes design elements to prevent contamination spread from carcass burial sites. The adsorbents used were low-grade charcoal (an industrial by-product), Alum-based Adsorbent (ABA), and Zeolite, a natural substance. These effectively removed the main leachate contaminants: low-grade charcoal for antibiotics (initial concentration 1.05 mg/L, removal rate 73.4%), ABA for phosphate (initial concentration 2.53 mg/L, removal rate 99.9%), and zeolite for ammonium (initial concentration 38.92 mg/L, removal rate 100.0%). The optimal mix ratio for purifying leachate is 1:1:10 of low-grade charcoal, ABA, and zeolite. The average adsorbent usage per burial site was 1,800 kg, costing KRW 2,000,000 per ton. The cost for the minimum leachate volume (about 12.4 m³) per site is KRW 2,880,000, and for the maximum volume (about 19.7 m³) is KRW 4,620,000. These findings contribute to resolving issues related to livestock carcass burial sites and suggest post-management strategies by advocating for the effective use of adsorbents in leachate purification.
