In this study, the applicability of finite analytic method (FAM) is studied by selecting linearized-Burgers equation and Burgers equation which have convective and diffusive behaviors as the model equation of Navier-Stokes equations and by comparing numerical solution of finite difference method (FDM) and finite analytic method. The results are as follows. It is shown that the convergence of FAM for steady-state analytic solution of linearized-Burgers equation and Burgers equation is better than that of FDM under the same criteria. Also the accuracy of FAM for transient solution of Burgers equation is excellent. Especially, it is shown that oscillation phenomenon due to dispersion errors which occur according to the choice of grid size in FDM does not occur in FAM at all. So, it can be thought that FAM is numerically very stable scheme, which is free from dispersion errors.

The annual variations of sea surface temperature (SST), air temperature (AT), and sea-air temperature separation (SST-AT) in the East Sea (Japan Sea) are studied by harmonic analysis of the monthly data in 2 by 2 degree rectangles. In the Tsushima Current region of the Japan Sea, the annual means of SST and AT are high due to warm water advection by the current, and the annual amplitudes of SST and AT are small because the annual variations of heat advection the the current and of the incoming solar radiation are almost out of phase each other. In summer the SST and the AT in the Japan Sea are almost the same, but in winter the SST is $6{\sim}10^{\circ}C$ higher than the AT. The physical processes responsible for the observed SST-AT in the Japan Sea and their consequences in the sea-air thermal interactions are discussed in this paper.

This study will analyze what is favorable of urban structure in order to introduce new transit system like bi-modal tram. As a reasonable transport mode in a city, the bi-modal tram needs to be considered with respect to the space structural pattern and city growth process. The result of this study may provide the basic resource that helps transport decision makers to decide how to introduce bi-modal tram by considering the urban structural characteristics. Also, the results that analyzed a functional characteristic of a bi-modal tram with a effective urban polices will be informative for practical use.

The separation mechanism of the Tsushima Warm Current and the effects of seasonal wind stress on the separation position are studied by use of a barotropic numerical model. The grid spacing of 0.25$^{\circ}$ both in latitude and longitude is used in the model, and Hellerman and Rosenstein's wind (1983) is applied to the sea surface as seasonal wind stress. According to the model results, during winter seasons (from October to March) when northly wind is prevailing, the Tsushima Warm Current is formed by direct separation from the Kuroshio on the continental slope southwest of Kyushu. On the other hand, during summer seasons (from April to September), the Taiwan Current that flows through the Taiwan Strait seems to be the origin of the Tsushima Warm Current. The Kuroshio reaches its maximum transport during winter seasons, and the minimum during summer. The transport of the Taiwan Current shows a phase lag of about 160$^{\circ}$ relative to the Kuroshio. The transport variation of the Tsushima Warm Current agrees with that of the Kuroshio when the former is shifted by 120$^{\circ}$(about 4 months).

Cellular Genetic Algorithms(CGAs) are a subclass of Genetic Algorithms(GAs) in which each individuals are placed in a given geographical distribution. In general, CGAs# population space is a regular network that has relatively long characteristic path length and high clustering coefficient in the view of the Networks Theory. Long average path length makes the genetic interaction of remote nodes slow. If we have the population#s path length shorter with keeping the high clustering coefficient value, CGAs# population space will converge faster without loss of diversity. In this paper, we propose Smallest-Small-World Cellular Genetic Algorithms(SSWCGAs). In SSWCGAs, each individual lives in a population space that is highly clustered but having shorter characteristic path length, so that the SSWCGAs promote exploration of the search space with no loss of exploitation tendency that comes from being clustered. Some experiments along with four real variable functions and two GA-hard problems show that the SSWCGAs are more effective than SGAs and CGAs.

In this paper, we propose a methodology for estimating the optimal traversable destination from the location-based information of the object recognized by the mobile robot to perform the object delivery service. The location estimation process is to apply the generalized Voronoi graph to the grid map to create an initial topology map composed of nodes and links, recognize objects and extract location data using RGB-D sensors, and collect the shape and distance information of obstacles. Then, by applying the hybrid approach that combines the center of gravity and thinning method, the optimal moving position for the service robot to perform the task of grabbing is estimated. And then, the optimal node information for the robot's work destination is updated by comparing the geometric distance between the estimated position and the existing node according to the node update rule.

2018년부터 삼척지역에는 전파강수관측소(X-band 이중편파레이더)가 설치되어 현업 운영 중에 있다. 해당 지역은 영동지역은 산지로 둘러싸여 있어 지형적인 여건으로 지상강우관측망과 기존 대형 강우레이더로도 정확한 강우관측에 한계가 있었다. 설치 이후 전파강수관측소의 품질관리와 최적 관측전략 수립, 분포형 비차등위상차 기반의 강우추정 기법의 적용으로 정량적 추정강우의 정확도가 확보되어 75m의 고해상도 격자강우 정보가 제공되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 전파강수관측소의 정량적 추정강우를 홍수예보에 활용하기 위해서 강우기반의 하천 수위 예측 기법인 하천흐름계산도표를 개발하였다. 하천흐름계산도표가 개발된 지역은 삼척 전파강수관측소의 관측 반경에 포함되는 삼척오십천 유역이며, 해당지역은 수변공원으로 조성되어 있어 시민의 접근이 용이하여 하천 수위 급상승으로 인해 피해가능성이 높은 지역이다. 2019년과 2020년 호우사례를 대상으로 개발된 하천흐름계산도표에 전파강수관측소의 정량적 추정강우를 적용하여 하천수위 상승 예측성을 평가하였다. 또한 비교대상으로 강우관측소 강우자료와 환경부 대형 강우레이더 강우자료의 적용결과를 함께 비교하였다. 비차등 위상차 기반의 강우추정 기법을 적용하여 산정된 삼척 전파강수관측소의 정량강우는 기존의 강우추정 결과(SRI, CMP_HFC)보다 강우추정 정확도가 향상된 것을 확인하였다. 특히, 10km 관측 반경을 기준으로 분석하면 정확도가 상대적으로 높았다. 삼척 전파강수관측소 추정강우를 하천흐름 계산도표에 적용한 결과, 2020년 9월 7일 호우에 의해 삼척오십천 유역에서 관심수위 초과(10:20), 주의수위 초과(11:20)가 발생하였는데, 삼척 전파강수관측소 추정강우가 관심수위 초과 1시간 50분 전에 수위상승을 예측하였고, 주의수위 초과 30분전에 수위상승을 예측하였다. 이를 통해 개발된 하천흐름계산도표와 삼척 전파강수관측소의 홍수예보 활용 가능성을 확인하였다.

Finite element grid system using h-refinement on the Yellow Sea was constructed based on previous study (Suh, 1999b) from 14 K to 210 K and special attention was concentrated on refining the coastal zone. In grid generation, depth change between adjacent points and non-dimensional tidal wave length ratio were considered. As a result approximately a quarter of the total nodes are located nearby 5 m of shallow area. Accurate bathymetry data using 30's and ETOPO1 with open boundary conditions of 8 major tidal constituents extracted automatically from FES2004 have been applied. In tidal simulation a 3-dimensional nonlinear harmonic model was setup and tidal amplification due to changes in vertical turbulent and bottom friction were simulated. In this study not only 8 major tidal constituents but also nonlinear shallow tides $M_4,$, $MS_4$ and long period $M_f,$, $M_{sf}$ were reproduced. It is found that implication of spatial variation of friction coefficient plays a very important role in reproduction of astronomical and shallow tides which are computed by iterative computation of nonlinear terms. Also it should be considered differently with respect to tidal periods. To understand the distribution of tidal asymmetry, amplitude ratio of $M_4/M_2$ and phase differences $2g(M_2)-g(M_4)$ were calculated. Tidal distortion ratio marks up to 0.2 on the west coast showing shallow coastal characteristics and somewhat wide range of ebb-dominances in front of Mokpo area are reproduced.

Theoretical foundation and algorithms are presented of a new surface modeling and pre-processing system for the three-dimensional structures. The modeling method is based on the boundary representation scheme and composed of two hierarchical model structures: curve-network and surface models. The concept of modeling curve as a union of links is introduced to facilitate surface modeling via various transfinite mapping techniques or Coons Patches. Efficiency and novel aspects of the present method are discussed. Finite element mesh genceration and application procedures will be reported in a later paper.

The radiating or receiving characteristics of array elements (i.e., antennas) are changed from those of isolated elements due to mutual coupling effects and the array performance becomes different from those originally designed by assuming isolated elements. The effects of mutual coupling on the performance of a rectangular array with triangular grid geometry of dipoles above a ground plane are discussed with respect to element pattern. The concept of element gain function is used to examine the effects of mutual coupling on the array performance in terms of sidelobe level in the uniformly spaced and space-tapered rectangular arrays with triangular grid geometry of dipoles. It was shown that the sidelobe performance improved in the space-tapered array compared to the uniformly spaced array in the presence of mutual coupling effects. Computer simulation results are presented.
