In order to evaluate applicability of rock cut-slope investigation system, typical clinometer and photogrammetry investigation system were used for rock slopes; first for 7 discontinuities, and secondly, 10 discontinuities, and the results were compared. The first verification was performed depending on discontinuity joint shapes and slope angles, and the second verification was performed depending on shot time and shot locations. The results showed that differences of dip direction $1^{\circ}{\sim}4^{\circ}$, dip $0^{\circ}{\sim}4^{\circ}$. In the second verification test, the differences of dip direction was $0^{\circ}{\sim}6^{\circ}$, and dip $0^{\circ}{\sim}6^{\circ}$. The photogrammetry method for rock slope survey system is quite reliable when clinometer generally shows ${\pm}10^{\circ}$ errors due to surface roughness and investigator.

현대 인류는 비약적인 경제성장으로 인하여 급격한 도시화와 산업화를 이루었다. 하지만 이러한 성장을 위해 수반되는 자원개발 및 생활환경조성으로 인한 토지개발이 진행되어 많은 양의 토양이 유실되고 있다. 토양유실을 관리하기 위해서는 모니터링을 통해 관리하는 방법과 모형을 통해 유실되는 토양의 양을 산정하여 관리방안을 제시하는 방법이 있다. 현재 전 세계적으로 사용되고 있는 범용토양유실량 산정공식(USLE)은 사용상의 편리성과 연간 토양유실량을 산정할 수 있는 이점이 있다. 뿐만 아니라 국내의 환경부에서는 USLE 공식을 적용한 '표토 침식 현황에 관한 고시'를 제정하여 유실되는 표토를 관리하고 있다. 하지만 USLE 공식을 구성하고 있는 인자 중 P factor는 경사도만을 고려하여 인자 값을 제시하고 있으며, 밭에 적용된 관리방법과 작물, 경운방법 등을 고려하지 않아 방법에 차이에 따른 발생되는 토양유실량에 차이가 발생하게 된다. 이러한 문제점을 고려하여 경작지의 경사도와 적용된 관리방안을 복합적으로 고려한 P factor 선정 체계가 필요한 시점이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 실제 경작지 조사를 통해 경작지 별 관리방안과 경사도를 고려한 P factor를 제안하고자 한다. 관리방안과 경사도를 복합적으로 고려한 P factor를 제안하기 위해 선정된 유역은 강원도 양구군 해안면 유역과 자운리 유역, 안동시 임동면 반변천 상류 유역을 선정하여 위치하고 있는 밭에 대한 현장조사를 진행하였다. 조사항목은 경작지의 경사도, 재배작물, 관리방법, 경운방법 등을 조사하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 경사도와 관리방법을 복합적으로 고려한 P factor를 재산정 하였다. P factor를 재산정한 결과 대상 유역 내 밭에 적용된 관리방법과 경운방법, 재배작물의 차이로 인해 상이한 값이 산정되었다. 또한 기존 P factor와 재산정된 P factor를 사용하여 산정한 토양유실량의 차이가 약 17%정도 나타났다. 따라서 본 연구를 통해 재산정된 P factor는 토양유실에 직간접적으로 관여하는 조건들을 복합적으로 고려한 P factor로써 정확한 토양유실량을 산정하는데 기여할 것으로 판단되며, 본 연구를 바탕으로 전국단위 USLE P factor를 산정을 위한 추가적인 연구가 필요하다고 판단된다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate muscle activity of cervical erector spinae & upper trapezius while using a smartphone according to anterior pelvic tilt & posterior pelvic tilt in sitting position. & we also want to obtain basic data necessary for development of IoT devices. Fifteen healthy men & women aged 20-30 were enolled, After anterior pelvic tilt & posterior pelvic tilt in sitting position were adjusted, they used a smartphone for 5 minutes & EMG signal was measured simultaneously. We used median 3 minutes of measured EMG signal. The results of this study were as follows: In the sitting position, the use of smartphone in anterior pelvic tilt had significantly lower %RVC values in both cervical erector spinae (p <.001), left upper trapezius (p <.001) & right upper trapezius (p <.002) in comparison with posterior pelvic tilt. This means that anterior pelvic tilt make vertebrae maintain normal curvature & prevent forward head posture occurred while using a smartphone. It reduces loads around neck & shoulders, so that %RVC value is significantly lowered. In the future, new posture corrected IoT devices with an aspect of pelvic tilt should be developed.

NDSM (Normalized Digital Surface Model) is key information for the detailed analysis of remote sensing data. Although NDSM can be simply obtained by subtracting a DTM (Digital Terrain Model) from a DSM (Digital Surface Model), in case of UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) data, it is difficult to get an accurate DTM due to high resolution characteristics of UAV data containing a large number of complex objects on the ground such as vegetation and urban structures. In this study, RGB-based UAV vegetation index, ExG (Excess Green) was used to extract initial seed points having low ExG values for region growing such that a DTM can be generated cost-effectively based on high resolution UAV data. For this process, local window analysis was applied to resolve the problem of erroneous seed point extraction from local low ExG points. Using the DSM values of seed points, region growing was applied to merge neighboring terrain pixels. Slope criteria were adopted for the region growing process and the seed points were determined as terrain points in case the size of segments is larger than 0.25 ㎡. Various slope criteria were tested to derive the optimized value for UAV data-based NDSM generation. Finally, the extracted terrain points were evaluated and interpolation was performed using the terrain points to generate an NDSM. The proposed method was applied to agricultural area in order to extract the above ground heights of crops and check feasibility of agricultural monitoring.

The NRCS-CN method is generally used to estimate effective rainfalls in a basin. However, since the curve number which plays a critical role in the NRCS-CN method was originally developed for US watersheds, it is limited to be directly applied to other basins outside the United States. Therefore various modifications have been suggested to revise the NRCS-CN for specific watershed condition. This study introduced the weighted average method and the slope-based CN to estimate effective rainfalls available for Korean watersheds and compared with the observed direct runoff. The overall results achieved from this study indicated that the adjusted slope-based CN considerably increases effective rainfalls in general and makes the duration of effective storm longer. Based on the statistical error analysis performed for various modifications of NRCS-CN, the weighted average method with the adjusted slope-based CN has highest precision with the observed direct runoff. In addition, after analyzing the relation between the initial loss estimated from rainfall-runoff observations and the potential maximum retention from GIS-based data, it turns out that the assumption of linear relationship between the initial loss and the potential maximum retention is not available for Korean watersheds.

LIDAR의 표고점 데이터는 건물, 수목 등의 개체를 구성하는 비지면점과 순수한 지표면을 나타내는 지면점들이 섞여있기 때문에 이들을 분리하는 과정이 필요하다. 지금까지 연구된 방법들은 몇 가지 입력 요소가 필요하여 완전 자동화를 이루지는 못하고 있으며, 다양한 크기의 개체를 동시에 자동으로 찾아내기 어렵고 경사진 지형에 대해서는 적용하기 어려운 문제점을 가지고 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 원 데이터의 동일 스캔 라인 상에 존재하는 이웃 점들 간의 경사를 이용하여 입력 요소를 최소화하여 개체를 추출하고자 한다. 이웃하는 두 점플 간의 경사를 이용하여 비지면점을 탐지하여 이웃하는 지면점의 높이 값으로 대체하며 갱신된 값을 바로 다음 연산에 반영시킴으로써 윈도우를 사용하거나 그룹화 할 필요가 없다. 또한 갱신된 값을 전파시키기 때문에 복잡한 지붕을 가지는 건물도 추출할 수가 있다. 이와 같은 연산을 두 방향에 대하여 수행하여 경사진 지형에 대하여 적용할 수 있도록 하였으며 천안과 마산지역에 대하여 테스트를 수행하였다.

Purpose: To simulate and measure the signal intensity of various tissues near bone interface in 2D and 3D neurological MR images. Materials and Methods: In neurological proton density (PD) weighted images, every component in the head including cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), muscle and scalp, with the exception of bone, are visualised. It is possible to acquire images in 2D or 3D. A 2D fast spin-echo (FSE) sequence is chosen for the 2D acquisition and a 3D gradient-echo (GE) sequence is chosen for the 3D acquisition. To find out the signal intensities of CSF, muscle and fat (or scalp) for the 2D spin-echo(SE) and 3D gradient-echo (GE) imaging sequences, the theoretical signal intensities for 2D SE and 3D GE were calculated. For the 2D fast spin-echo (FSE) sequence, to produce the PD weighted image, long TR (4000 ms) and short TE$_{eff}$ (22 ms) were employed. For the 3D GE sequence, low flip angle (8$^{\circ}$) with short TR (35 ms) and short TE (3 ms) was used to produce the PD weighted contrast. Results: The 2D FSE sequence has CSF, muscle and scalp with superior image contrast and SNR of 39 - 57 while the 3D GE sequence has CSF, muscle and scalp with broadly similar image contrast and SNR of 26 - 33. SNR in the FSE image were better than those in the GE image and the skull edges appeared very clearly in the FSE image due to the edge enhancement effect in the FSE sequence. Furthermore, the contrast between CSF, muscle and scalp in the 2D FSE image was significantly better than in the 3D GE image, due to the strong signal intensities (or SNR) from CSF, muscle and scalp and enhanced edges of CSF. Conclusion: The signal intensity of various tissues near bone interface in neurological MR images has been simulated and measured. Both the simulation and imaging of the 2D SE and 3D GE sequences have CSF, fat and muscle with broadly similar image intensity and SNR's and have succeeded in getting all tissues about the same signal. However, in the 2D FSE sequence, image contrast between CSF, muscle and scalp was good and SNR was relatively high, imaging time was relatively short.

In this study, the behavior characteristics of vertical and batter piles were analyzed by the model tests and the numerical analyses. Model steel pipe piles with the inclination of 0$^{\circ}$, 10$^{\circ}$, 20$^{\circ}$ and 30$^{\circ}$ were driven into sands with the relative density of 79%. The static compression load tests and numerical analyses using PENTAGON 3D were performed. The bearing capacities of batter piles with inclination of 10$^{\circ}$, 20$^{\circ}$ and 30$^{\circ}$ were 111, 95, and 81% of those of vertical pile in model tests, and the results of numerical analyses were similar to those of model tests. The bearing capacities p.oposed by Petrasovits and Award (1968) were similar to those of model test in the inclination of 10$^{\circ}$, but overestimated in the inclination of 20$^{\circ}$ and 30$^{\circ}$. The skin frictions and end bearing loads were the maximum in the inclination of 10$^{\circ}$ and decreased with increasing the inclination angle.

An algorithm to allow shoreline movement during numerical experiment on sediment transport, deposition or resuspension for general coastal morphology is proposed here. The bed slope near shoreline, i.e. mean sea level, is influenced by bed material, tidal current, waves, and wave-induced current, but has been reported to remain within a stable range. Its annual variation is not large, either. The algorithm is adjusting the bathymetry, if the largest bed slope within shoreline band exceeds a given bed slope due to continuous erosion at zones below the shoreline. This algorithm automatically describes retreat of shoreline caused by erosion, when used within a numerical system. The algorithm was tested to a situation which includes a continuous dredging at a point, and showed satisfactory development of concentric circle contours. Next, the algorithm was tested to another situation which includes sinking of eroded part of bed plate, and produced satisfactory results, too. Finally, the algorithm was tested to a movable-bed laboratory experimental conditions. The shoreline movement behind detached breakwater was reasonably reproduced with this algorithm.

목적：자화율 대조법을 사용한 관류 영상에서 동시획득 $T_{1}T_{2}^{*}$ 강조 경사 자장 펄스열을 사용하여 Gd-DTPA에 의한 $T_{1}T_{2}^{*}$ 감소 효과를 동시에 획득하여 종양의 치료 효과, 판정에 중요한 기준을 제시할 수 있는 정확한 관류 정보를 얻고자 한다. 대상 및 방법： Gd-DTPA에 의한 $T_{1}T_{2}^{*}$ 감소 효과를 동시에 획득하기 위하여 기존의 이중 경사자장 펄스열을 수정, 동시획득 $T_{1}T_{2}^{*}$ 강조 경사자장 펄스열을 개발하였고, 시간 해상도를 높이기 위하여 key-hole 방법을 사용하였다. 고정 phantom으로 Sephadex를 다양한 농도의 Gd-DTPA 용액에 swelling하여 사용하였고, 관류 phantom으로는 Sephadex와 Dialyzer를 사용하였다. Sephadex는 swelling 하였을 때 $T_1$, $T_2$값이 생체 조직의 값과 비슷하고, 물을 관류시킬 수 있어 생체 모형에 적합한 phantom이다 .관류 phantom은 정량 펌프에 연결하여 사용하였다. Sephadex 관류 phantom에서는 분당 약 4$m\ell$ 속도로 관류시키면서 25 mM Gd-DTPA을 0.1$m\ell$ 일시 주입하여 관류 방향에 수직인 coronal 영상을 약 15분 동안 얻었다. 투과도를 구하기 위한 phantom으로는 hollow fiber type Dialyzer를 사용하였고, in vivo에서 1차 관류 이후에 현관 밖에서의 Gd농도가 높고 혈관 내부의 농도가 낮은 상태를 만들기 위하여 fiber 바깥쪽으로 500 mM Gd-DTPA 2 ml를 미리 넣어두고 fiber 내부로 이보다 낮은 농도의 Gd 용액을 관류시키면서 약 1시간동안 영상을 얻었다. 관류 영상에서 $T_1$/$T_{2}^{*}$ 감소 효과를 구분하여 구한 $\DeltaR_1$, $\DeltaR_2$ 곡선의 적분값으로부터 관류량을 구하고, 2 구획 모델을 적용하여 투과도를 구했다.
