The cracks in the tunnel are currently determined through visual inspections conducted by inspectors based on images acquired using tunnel imaging acquisition systems. This labor-intensive approach, relying on inspectors, has inherent limitations as it is subject to their subjective judgments. Recently research efforts have actively explored the use of deep learning to automatically detect tunnel cracks. However, most studies utilize public datasets or lack sufficient objectivity in the analysis process, making it challenging to apply them effectively in practical operations. In this study, we selected test datasets consisting of images in the same format as those obtained from the actual inspection system to perform an objective evaluation of deep learning models. Additionally, we introduced ensemble techniques to complement the strengths and weaknesses of the deep learning models, thereby improving the accuracy of crack detection. As a result, we achieved high recall rates of 80%, 88%, and 89% for cracks with sizes of 0.2 mm, 0.3 mm, and 0.5 mm, respectively, in the test images. In addition, the crack detection result of deep learning included numerous cracks that the inspector could not find. if cracks are detected with sufficient accuracy in a more objective evaluation by selecting images from other tunnels that were not used in this study, it is judged that deep learning will be able to be introduced to facility safety inspection.

This paper presents the automatic construction and parameter optimization technique for fuzzy logic controllers using genetic algorithm. In general. the design of fuzzy logic controllers has difficulties in the acq~lisition of expert's knowledge and relies to a great extent on empirical and heuristic knowledge which, in many cases, cannot be objectively justified. So, the performance of the controllers c:an be degraded in the case of plant parameter variations or unpredictable incident which a designer may have ignored, and the parameters of fuzzy logic controllers obtained by expert's control action may not be optirnal. Some of these problems can be resolved by the use of genetic algorithm. The proposed method can tune the parameters of fuzzy logic controllers including scaling factors and determine: the appropriate number of fuzzy rulcs systematically. Finally, we provides the second order dead time plant to evaluate the feasibility and generality of the proposed method. Comparison shows that the proposed method can produce fuzzy logic controllers with higher accuracy and a smaller number of fuzzy rules than manually tuned fuzzy logic controllers.

Block based fast motion estimation algorithm use the fixed search pattern to reduce the search point, and are based on the assumption that the error in the mean absolute error space monotonically decreases to the global minimum. Therefore, in case of many local minima in a search region we are likely to find local minima instead of the global minimum and highly rely on the initial search points. This situation is evident in the motion boundary. In this paper we define the candidate regions within the search region using the motion information of the neighbor blocks and we propose the multiple local search method (MLSM) which search for the solution throughout the candidate regions to reduce the possibilities of isolation to the local minima. In the MLSM we mark the candidate region in the search point map and we avoid to search the candidate regions already visited to reduce the calculation. In the simulation results the proposed method shows more excellent results than that of other gradient based method especially in the search of motion boundary. Especially, in PSNR the proposed method obtains similar estimate accuracy with the significant reduction of search points to that of full search.

An ad-hoc wireless network provides self-organizing data networking while they are routing of packets among themselves. Typically multi-hop and control packets overhead affects the change of route of transmission. There are numerous routing protocols have been developed for ad hoc wireless networks as the size of the network scale. Hence the scalable routing protocol would be needed for energy efficient various network routing environment conditions. The number of depth or layer of hierarchical clustering nodes are analyzed the different clustering structure with topology in this paper. To estimate the energy efficient number of cluster layer and energy dissipation are studied based on distributed homogeneous spatial Poisson process with context-awareness nodes condition. The simulation results show that CACHE-R could be conserved the energy of node under the setting the optimal layer given parameters.

The wetlands have eco-sociological values because their functions have proven to be useful to human society. Many countries are working to conserve and protect the wetland ecosystems. However, many wetlands have disappeared or have been fragmented due to a natural and/or anthropogenic disturbance. These isolated wetlands appear to work best in the landscape, as a spatially distributed system. We have analyzed the spatial-social distribution patterns of wetlands in Gyeongsangnam-do Province (GNP). We examined the frequency distribution of wetland sizes, the distances to the nearest wetlands, the shapes of the wetlands, land-use patterns, land owners, and official land values were confirmed as social characteristics for each wetland. A total of 146 wetlands (3,598.85 ha), including 76 riverine wetlands (1,955.60 ha), 49 palustrine wetlands (1,282.28 ha) and 21 mountain wetlands (1,282.28 ha) were identified in GNP. Most wetlands left for use to drainage were small (<2 ha) and located in agricultural areas. However, small and isolated wetlands were clustered, according to the location, indicating that these wetlands can be connected to each other using the linear riverine wetlands and water channels in agricultural areas. This is extremely valuable in maintaining the biodiversity, such that any loss of small wetlands will cause a direct reduction in the connectedness among populations of the remaining species. Due to most wetlands belonging to the nation or businesses, being classified as reservoirs (water storage areas), and consequently, degradation of wetlands will progress due to grand-scale engineering works. Therefore, wetland policy and ecologically sensitive laws and policies should be developed in order to promote the wise-use for wetlands.

The factor of safety (FOS) is commonly used as an index to quantitatively state the degree of safety of various rock structures. Therefore it is important to understand the definition and characteristics of the adopted FOS because the calculated FOS may be different according to the definition of FOS even if it is estimated under the same stress condition. In this study, four local factors of safety based on maximum shear stress, maximum shear strength, stress invariants, and maximum principal stress were defined using the Mohr-Coulomb and Hoek-Brown failure criteria. Then, the variation characteristics of each FOS along five stress paths were investigated. It is shown that the local FOS based on the shear strength, which is widely used in the stability analysis of rock structures, results in a higher FOS value than those based on the maximum principal stress and the stress invariants. This result implies that the local FOS based on the maximum shear stress or the stress invariants is more necessary than the local FOS based on the shear strength when the conservative rock mechanics design is required. In addition, it is shown that the maximum principal stresses at failure may reveal a large difference depending on the stress path.

The rapid change of the culture and art environment is led to new art & cultural education and differences in culture and art education facilities, away from the traditional closed space culture and art education. Phenomena such as plays out of the theater, exhibitions out of the art museum, and pictures taking a walk indicate that cultural and artistic educational facilities can no longer stay in the existing paradigm and are changing along with the changes in the cultural and creative world. Therefore, to develop a site-specific theater education program centered around a specific place rather than a theater or studio, in line with the changing times of cultural and artistic educational facilities, this researcher analyzes Brecht's radio play experiment and the recent performative performance experiment. Furthermore, using the regional and community values of arts and culture education confirmed as the motive for research on site-specific theater programs, I analyze the implementation and application process by experimenting with theater programs out of the theaters and studios. As a prior study, research on site-specific performances is being conducted relatively actively, but earlier studies were dealing only with the Ligna group performance cases are lacking. However, I would like to use the previous research on site-specific performance cases as an epistemological background. As a result of the study, for the place-specific theater program through a total of 10 learners, a text based on a specific place was created that did not depend on traditional literary texts. Through this, the possibility of a site-specific theater education program could be confirmed.

In recent years, the service life of major SOC facilities in south korea has exceeded 30 years, and rapid aging is expected within the next 10 years. This has led to a growing recognition of the need for proactive maintenance of these facilities. Consequently, there have been numerous research efforts to introduce smart inspection technologies into maintenance. However, the current system relies primarily on manpower for safety inspections and diagnostics, and on-site surveys rely on visual inspections. Manpower inspections can be time-consuming, and subjective errors may occur during result analysis. In the case of tunnels, there are disadvantages, such as the loss of social overhead capital due to partial closures during inspections. Therefore, institutionalizing smart safety inspections is essential, considering specific measures like using advanced equipment and updating qualifications for experts. Furthermore, it is necessary to verify and validate safety inspection results using advanced equipment before instituting changes. This could be achieved through national-level official research programs and the operation of verification and validation institutions. If smart inspection technology is introduced into maintenance, routine inspections of SOC facilities, such as tunnels, will become feasible. As a result, maintenance technology capable of early detection and proactive response to safety incidents caused by changes in facility conditions is anticipated.

최근 기후변화로 인한 국지성 호우 빈도 및 강수량이 급증하는 등 극한강우 발생 가능성이 높아지고 있는 실정이다. 공공 기반의 유역 및 지자체별 침수 대응은 지속적으로 이루어지고 있으나, 건설 현장 대응은 이에 비해 미흡한 실정이다. 특히, 건설 현장의 경우, 예측할 수 없는 홍수 유출에 대해서도 기존 설계시 반영된 홍수 유출량과 기상청 정보에만 의존하고 있어 극한강우 발생시 취약성을 나타낼 수 있다. 특히, Top-down 현장은 개구부, 표면 작업을 위한 포장 등에 의해 지하부로 유입되는 강우량이 많고, 지하 굴착공사시 단차 및 지하수 발생으로 극한강우시 침수에 의한 수재해 발생 확률이 높다. 이를 대비하기 위해 XP-SWMM 모형을 이용하여 지상부와 지하부의 강우-유출량을 산정하고 지하부 침수를 모의하였다. 실제 Top-down 현장조사를 통해 침수 관련 인자와 XP-SWMM을 연계하여 침수모의 기법에 적용하였다. 관련 주요인자는 강우량, 현장 지상부 면적, 지상부 배수로, 지하 유입부, 지하 배수펌프 등으로 현장 조사결과 나타났다. 강우자료의 경우, 극한강우를 고려하기 위해 현장 지역의 최대 강우량, 태풍 루사와 기상청 강우의 증가 시나리오를 고려하여 모의에 적용하였다. 본 연구에서는 극한강우에 대한 Top-down 침수 모의를 수행할 수 있는 상용 모델링과 이와연관된 인자를 도출하여 침수 모의 기법을 최적화 하였다. 이러한 침수 모의를 통해 Top-Down 현장 침수심 등을 예측할 수 있다. 향후 이를 통해 지하공간이 있는 건설현장의 강우-유출 현상및 침수 모의가 가능하고, 실시간 현장별 침수 예측 모델 개발로 현장별 대피경로 및 대응방안을 제시하여 인적 피해를 최소화할 수 있을 것으로 기대할 수 있다.
