A reliability analysis on sliding of monolithic vertical caisson of composite breakwaters is extensively carried out in order to make the basis for the applicability of reliability-based design method. The required width of caisson of composite breakwaters is determined by the deterministic design method including the effect of impulsive breaking waves as a function of water depth, also studied interactively with the results of reliability analyses. It is found that the safety factor applied in current design may be a little over-weighted magnitude for the sliding of caisson. The reliability index/failure probability is also seen to slowly decrease as the water depth increases for a given wave condition and a safety factor. In addition, optimal safety factor can roughly be evaluated by using the concept of target reliability index for several incident waves. The variations of optimal safety factor may be resulted from the different wave conditions. Finally, it may be concluded from the sensitivity studies that the reliability index may be more depended on the incident wave angles and the wave periodsrather than on the bottom slopes and the thickness of rubble mound.

This study was conducted to develop a large scale map of species-specific plantation sites based on selected environmental variables such as topography, soil, and climatic factors in Namwon city. Site index equations by tree species were first regressed to 27 environmental variables that could influence the productivity of forest sites using digital forest site maps, digital climate maps, and the 5th National Forest Inventory data. Site index equations by tree species were all evaluated to estimate site productivity using 4-5 environmental variables, and the models' reliability was confirmed based on evaluation statistics. The determination coefficients of site index equations by species ranged from 0.42 to 0.76. With the site index equations, the site conditions appropriate for productive sites by species were considered to assess spatial distribution of productive areas for each species. The final map for optimal plantation in Namwon city was produced based on both site index equations and site conditions appropriate for productive sites by each species using GIS technique. Field survey was conducted to evaluate the suitability of selected species on the map of species-specific plantation sites. Results showed that the plantation map provides relatively reasonable spatial distribution of productive areas for selected species. It was revealed, however, that the sites evaluated as 'not suitable' for any tree species should be revised and complemented with additional information, especially with the site conditions appropriate for productive sites by species of interest. The outcomes of this study are expected to provide information for making customized species-specific plantation maps.

최근 친수성, 경관, 생태계 보전 등을 위해 다양한 호안블록의 시공이 이루어지고 있어 호안블록의 수리적 안정성에 관한 관심이 증가하고 있다. 이러한 배경 하에 한국건설기술연구원 안동하천실험센터(이하 센터)에서는 2019년부터 실규모 수로를 이용하여 여러 건의 호안블록 실규모 수리검토 실험을 실시한 바 있다. 본 연구는 그간의 실험 결과를 종합적으로 고찰하고 수리 검토 실험의 현황과 한계점, 그리고 개선 방향을 제언하는데 그 목적이 있다. A1 수로(급경사수로, 하상경사 1/70)에서는 7건(21회), B1 수로(고유속수로, 하상경사 1/7)에서는 2건(6회)의 실험이 수행되었다. A1 수로 실험의 유량-소류력 관계는 1.0 m³/s에서 약 20 N/m²이며, 1.0 m³/s 증가당 약 11 N/m²이 증가하는 관계를 나타낸다. 7건의 실험 결과 30분 이상 지속된 최대 실험 유량은 6~7 m³/s 정도이며, 이는 A1 최대 공급 유량의 75 % 정도로서 안정적인 수준이라고 판단된다. 이 때의 최대 소류력은 75 N/m² 정도로 나타났다. B1 수로는 5 m/s 이상의 고유속 흐름을 발생시킬 수있으며, 2건의 실험 결과 0.5 m³/s에서 약 100 N/m², 최대 4.5 m³/s에서 330 N/m²까지 소류력을 제공하여 실험을 수행한 바 있다. 따라서 A1, B1 수로를 통해 제공할 수 있는 소류력 범위는 10~330 N/m²이지만, 75~100 N/m²는 실험에서 제공된 바 없었다. 한편, 토양유실의 경우 수준측량에 의해 측정되는데, 대부분의 실험에서 Clopper의 토양손실 지수(1.27 cm) 미만의 결과가 발생하였다. 이는 시험체에 따라 여건이 다르기는 하지만, 수리 검토 실험시 3회 실험을 기본으로 하고 있고 호안재료의 침식이 기준 이하로 유지되면서 최대한의 성능을 발휘할 수 있는 소류력 조건을 얻으려는 실험 목적에 부합하도록 조절된 것으로 볼 수 있다. 이러한 실험 결과를 토대로 고려해볼 수 있는 개선 방향은 다음과 같다. 강성 재료가 아닌 연성 또는 친환경적 호안재료의 허용 소류력 범위를 보다 넓게 평가하기 위해 A1 수로가 제공하는 최대 소류력을 높일 필요가 있다. 이를 위해 기본 3회의 실험 외에 추가로 호안블록이 파괴되거나 토양유실 임계치를 초과할 수 있는 실험을 수행함으로써 각 제품의 한계 성능을 평가하는 것이 필요할 것으로 보인다.

Parent material, climate, topography, biological factors, and time are considered five soil forming factors. This study was conducted to elucidate the effects of several environment factors on soil distribution using quantitative analysis method, called soil series estimation algorithm in the soils of Jeju Island. We selected environment factors including mean temperature, annual precipitation, surface geology, altitude, slope, aspect, altitude difference within 1 $km^2$ area, topographic wetness index, distance from the shore, distance from the mountain peak, and landuse for a quantitative analysis. We analyzed the ranges of environment factors for each soil series and calculated probabilities of possible-soil series for certain locations using estimation algorithm. The algorithm can predicted exact soil series on the soil map with correctness of 33% on $1^{st}$ ranking, 62% within $2^{nd}$ ranking, 74% within $5^{th}$ ranking after estimating using randomly extracted environment factors. In predicted soil map, soil sequences of Entisols-Alfisols-Andisols on northern area and Alfisols-Ultisols-Andisols on western area can be suggested along increasing altitude. More modeling studies will be needed for the genesis process of soils in Jeju Island.

In order to lead safe driving, it is better to provide dynamic and detailed information on how the driver using the relevant road should behave as concerning movements of individual car rather than providing monotone and static information of reducing of speed to unspecified drivers. Assuming road and communication of highway where real-time collection and transfer of information on vehicles and road traffic status is possible, the purpose of this study was to provide real-time safe distance by considering road traffic condition such as road condition and driving condition, travel speed and distance between preceding/following vehicles. We intended to provide basic information about dangerous situation by defining different values of condition based column ($C_{condition}$) in accordance with the road surface condition, based on which Real-time Safety Distance Index(RSDI) is to be calculated comprehensively reflecting speed of preceding and following vehicles, distance between vehicles, vertical alignment and road surface condition on the scope of expression column ($C_n$). We intended to enable the driver to secure safety by providing the calculated Real-time Safety Distance Index (RSDI) so that the driver can intuitively sense and sufficiently cope with a dangerous situation where collision of vehicles may occur. The calculated RSDI value is comprised of 30 unit columns and will be provided to the driver being divided into risk evaluation grades of 3 predetermined steps, 'warning', 'dangerous' and 'normal'.

지하수 개발가능량 산정을 위한 함양량의 평가는 수문계의 물리적인 형태나 함수층의 수리성 분석 및 수직인 지질분포를 파악하여 어떤 조건하에서 물이 유입 유출되는가를 파악한 후에만 가능하다. 또한 지하수계의 물리적인 형태를 이해함으로써 조사지역의 지표수계나 지하수계의 양계를 통해서 흐르는 물의 양을 결정짓는 물수지 분석이 수행되어야 한다. 이에 따라 강수량, 증발산량, 지하수 유출량, 지표유출량 그리고 하천유출량 등을 수문학적으로 고려해야만 한다. 본 연구는 지표수-지하수 결합모형을 도입하여 분포형 지하수 함양량의 시공간적인 변동성을 파악하는 데 그 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 지표수-지하수 결합모형인 SWAT-K모형을 미호천 유역에 적용하였으며, 지표수의 총유출량과 지하수위의 공간분포자료를 이용하여 검정과 검증을 수행하였다. 전체유역에 대한 연평균 함양량은 수문총량의 약 19%인 것으로 나타났다. 1999년${\sim}$2004년까지의 소유역별 연간 함양량 결과를 월별로 나타냈으며, HRU(Hydrologic Response Unit)별 함양량의 공간분포를 통해 월별, 계절별 특성을 살펴볼 수 있었다. 소유역 모두 강수가 집중하는 7-9월에 걸쳐 많은 함양이 이루어지며 $1{\sim}3$월에는 상대적으로 함양이 적은 것을 볼 수 있다. 월함양량의 경우 최대 약200mm범위내에서 유역의 토지이용 및 토양특성, 경사등에 따라 매우 비균질하게 분포하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이와같은 함양량의 시공간적 불균일성으로 인해 지하수 관리방안은 소유역별 함양특성을 반영해야 할 것으로 판단된다.의 종분산지수가 일반적인 자연대수층에 비해 9.1배 정도 높다는 것을 의미한다. 이는 시험대수층의 투수성이 매우 높아 염소이온의 용질이송이 매우 빠르게 발생되었기 때문이다. 본 연구에서 추정된 종분산지수를 Gelhar et al.(1992)의 연구 결과와 비교 분석한 결과에서도 시험규모에 비해 매우 높은 수리분산이 발생된 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 염소이온의 확산면적을 추정하기 위해, 수렴흐름 추적자시험에 의한 종분산지수와 시험대수층의 평균선형유속을 이용하여 종분산계수를 구하였다. 현장에서 수행된 양수시험에 의한 평균선형유속 22.44 m/day와 평균 종분산지수 0.4155 m를 적용하여 산정된 종분산계수는 $9.32\;m^2/day$이었다. 따라서, 시험부지 내 충적층에서 일정한 양수율$(2,500\;m^3/day)$로 지하수를 개발할 시에 양수정 주변지역으로 유입되는 염소이온의 확산면적은 1일 $9.32\;m^2$ 정도일 것으로 나타났다.적인 $OH{\cdot}$ 의 생성은 ascorbate가 조직손상에 관여할 가능성을 시사하였다.었다. 정확한 예측치를 얻기 위하여 불균질 조직이 조사야에 포함되는 경우 보정이 요구되며, 골반의 경우 골 조직의 보정이 중요한 요인임을 알 수 있었다. 이를 위하여 불균질 조직에 대한 정확한 정보가 요구되며, 이는 CT 영상을 이용하는 것이 크게 도움이 되리라 생각된다.전시 슬러지층과 상등액의 온도차를 측정하여 대사열량의 발생량을 측정하고 슬러지의 활성을 측정할 수 있는 방법을 개발하였다.enin과 Rhaponticin

Nowadays, the importance of the information management of construction sites to achieve the goal of safety construction. This management uses the collaborated analysis of in-situ monitoring data and numerical analysis, especially of an earth retaining structures of excavation sites. In this paper, the fractal theory was applied to actually monitored data from various excavation sites to develop the alternative interpolation technique which could predict the displacement behavior of unknown location around the monitoring locations and the future behavior of the monitoring locations with the steps of excavation. Data, mainly from inclinometer, were collected from various sites where retaining structures were collapsed during construction period, as well as from normal sites with the characteristics of geology, excavation method etc. In the analyses, Hurst exponent (H) was estimated with monitored periods using the Rescaled range analysis (R/S analysis) method applying the H in simulation processes. As the results of the analyses, Hurst exponents were ranged from 0.7 to 0.9 and showed the positive correlation of H > 1/2. The simulation processes, then, with the Hurst exponent estimated by Rescaled range analysis method showed reliable results. In addition, it was also expected that the variation of Hurst exponents with the monitoring period could instruct the abnormal behavior of an earth retaining structures to directors or operators. Therefore it was concluded that fractal theory could be applied for predicting the lateral displacement of unknown location and the future behavior of an earth retaining structures to manage the safety of construction sites during excavation period.

The main purpose of this study is to analyze runoff aggregation structure and energy expenditure pattern of Choyang creek basin within the framework of power law distribution. To this end geomorphologic factors of every point in the basin of interest, which define tractive force and stream power as well as drainage area, are extracted based on GIS, and their complementary cumulative distributions are graphically analyzed through fitting them to power law distribution. The results indicate that three distinct behavioral regimes are observed from the complementary cumulative distributions of three geomorphogic factors. Based on the parameter estimation of power law distribution by maximum likelihood drainage area and stream power can be judged as scale invariance factor without finite scale while tractive force as scale dependence factor with finite scale. Furthermore, it is judged that tractive force would not follow power law distribution because it shows limited complex system behaviors only within the small extent of scale. The exponent of power law distribution for drainage area obtained in this study by maximum likelihood is larger than the previous researches due to the difference of parameter estimation methodologies. And the exponent for stream power is smaller than the previous researches due to the scaling property of channel slope for the basin of interest.

Purpose: Open lateral release and complete lateral release have been conducted as a surgical method in patients with patellofemoral malalignment. But authors sought to find out the best method by conducting selective release, with minimal excision of the involved lesion, and comparative analyzing the result, as postoperative satisfaction and complication. Materials and Methods: Over the 68 patients of 90 cases who underwent arthroscopic release, among 94 patients of 129 cases who underwent lateral retinacular release, from January 1993 to June 1998 were followed up prospectively. A radiological evaluation of patellar inclination, patellar tilt, congruence angle, and Q-angle and a clinical evaluation of HSS-Knee score and modified patellar score were used for analysis data before operation and data at 1 year and 5 year after operation. Results: According to the radiologic evaluation, the patellar tilt and translation revealed improvement of the results, from $13.4^{\circ}$ and 12.1mm to $3.6^{\circ}$ and 3.8mm with arthroscopic lateral complete release, and from $12.3^{\circ}$ and 11.2mm to $4.8^{\circ}$ and 5.2mm with selective release, and from $13.6^{\circ}$ and 12.3mm to $3.3^{\circ}$ and 3mm with open release. But they were not significantly related to the clinical results. HSS-Knee score was 84.2%(48/57), 81.8%(27/33), 82.1%(32/39) and modified patellar score was 82.5%(47/57), 81.8%(27/33), 82.1%(32/39) respectively, which revealed satisfactory results. And no significant difference among the operative methods were shown. Conclusion: Arthroscopic lateral retinacular release which is one of the surgical method for patellofemoral malalignment enhances rehabilitation and satisfaction of the patient, by releasing the involved retinaculum within lesser surgical extent, compared to open and complete lateral release without complications such as adhesion.
