Downhole testing and seismic CPT (SCPT) have been widely used to evaluate stiffness profiles of the subgrade. Advantages of downhole testing and SCPT such as low cost, easy operation and a simple seismic source have got these testings more frequently adopted in site investigation. For the automated analysis of downhole testing and SCPT, the concept of interval measurements has been practiced. In this paper. a new inversion procedure to deal tilth the interval measurements for the automated downhole testing and SCPT (including a newlydeveloped continuous SCPT) is proposed. The forward modeling in the new inversion procedure incorporates ray path theory based on Snell's law. The formulation for the inversion analysis is derived from the maximum likelihood approach, which estimates the maximum likelihood of obtaining a particular travel time from a source to a receiver. Verification of the new inversion procedure was performed with numerical simulations of SCPT using synthesized profiles. The results of the inversion analyses performed for the synthetic data show that the new inversion analysis is a valid procedure which enhances Va profiles determined by downhole testing and SCPT.

광통신을 위한 구성 요소는 빛을 발생시키는 발광소자, 빛을 검출하는 수광소자 그리고 광신호를 처리하는 광신호처리 소자로 구성된다. 이때 각 소자간 광전송과 광소자에 의한 광 신호 처리 과정에서 광전송 손실이 심각하게 일어나 광정보를 상실하게 되므로 각 요소별로 광신호 증폭이 반드시 필요하다. 뿐만 아니라 완전 광화에 의한 초고속/대용량 광통신망의 구축에는 저가이며, 광집적화가 가능한 광도파로형 광증폭기가 요구되고 있다. 짧은 거리에 높은 증폭 효율을 얻기 위한 광도파로형 광증폭기를 구현하기 위해서는 광통신 파장대인 1.55$\mu\textrm{m}$ 대역의 증폭이 가능한 Er 이온을 고농도로 도핑 할 필요가 있다. 그러나 Er 이온을 단순히 고농도로 첨가하면 Er-Er 간 뭉침 현상에 의해 더 이상의 증폭이 어렵게 된다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제를 해결하면서 스핀 코팅이 가능하여 저가 공정이 가능한 유/무기 졸-겔 재료 내에 Er 이온을 제어된 방법으로 첨가하고 그 결합 환경을 FT-IR 및 $^{17}$ O-NMR로 분석하였다. 유/무기 졸겔 재료 제조를 위하여 먼저 MPTS(MethAcryoxyPropylTrimethoxySilane)를 부분 가수분해한 후 ZrOCl$_2$.8$_2$O (Zirconyl Chloride Octahydrate) 와 ErCl$_3$. 6$H_2O$ (Erbium(III) Chloride Hexahydrate)를 순차적으로 결합시키고, Zr/MPTS 및 Zr/Er의 첨가비에 따른 발광 특성을 PL(photoluminescence) 스팩트럼으로 분석하여 Er 이온의 주위 결합 환경이 PL에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 또한 Si 기판에 코팅한 Er이 도핑된 유/무기 하이브리드 졸-겔 코팅막의 굴절율 등 광도파로 재료로서의 특성도 프리즘 커플러 등을 이용하여 조사하였다.

We investigated the weathering characteristics of On-Yang gneiss by means of geological survey and Ground Penetrating Radar(GPR). The results of geological survey and boring show the two sets of vertical joint and horizontal joint developed by foliation which is composed of salic and melanic layers. GPR section evidently shows foliation direction and differential weathering due to discontinuity and mineral composition of metamorphic rock. The GPR section for instantaneous phase attribute based on complex trace analysis evidently shows continuity and foliation direction of metamorphic rock. The strong reflection amplitude which is derived from the banded structure of weathered rock can be incorrectly interpreted as a reflection of bedrock. The depth of rock basement should be estimated from the overall exploration result such as boring, seismic method, and electrical resistivity method.

The stiff top layer in a soil profile, which can happen in winter, may change the isolation effect of the wave barrier. The research scope of this paper is the investigation of the propagation of surface waves in layered soil with a stiff layer on its top, and the isolation effect of the solid stiff wave barrier. The investigations have been performed numerically by the Boundary-Element Method as a two-dimensional problem. A strip foundation vibrated harmonically in vertical direction was considered as the vibration source. Three soil profiles, a homogeneous half-space, two profiles with different thickness of stiff top layer, with two different types of wave barriers were investigated. The profiles with a stiff top layer show considerable reductions of the amplitude of the vibration in comparison to the homogeneous soil profile. The layered soil profiles with a stiff top layer do not show wave propagation velocities as high as they are expected from the material properties. Furthermore the vibration amplitudes in a frozen soil are much smaller with distance than in a non-frozen soil.

A technique was developed for analysis on sonic boom created by supersonic flight and for prediction of its sound level and atmospheric propagation characteristics. It is of great importance to anticipate sound level of sonic boom because it causes environmental issue. For that purpose, the simplified sonic-boom prediction method was applied to calculate sound pressure according to physical properties and flight information of the object and distance to measurement site, in this study. Propagation characteristics of shock wave emanated from a flying object was analyzed by using line-of-sight vector and ray tracing method which dealt with refraction of wave due to atmospheric density distribution along altitude. Predicted results agreed well with measured data from real flight.

Geophysical surveys were performed in three abandoned mines: Jangpoong, Kwangyang, Imchon. The main objectives of the researches include delineating the pathways of leachate from acid mine drainage(AMD), mapping buried rock wastes and tailings, detecting drainage pipes, and investigating the gallery and membrane, if they exist, Geophysical responses were well correlated with the results from water sample data(i.e., pH, EC, heavy metal contents, $SO_4^{-2}$). Main pathways of the leachate were successfully detected in electrical resistivity sections and self-potential(SP) profiles, whereas waste rocks, drainage pipes, and membranes were effectively located by incorporating seismic refraction, electrical resistivity and GPR methods.

We have measured nonlinear refractive index and nonlinear absorption coefficient of optical materials by using a far-field phase modulation technique. The phase variation of the probe beam in the nonlinear material is transformed into the spatial phase modulation in the far-field so that the spatial distribution of the optical intensity in conjunction with the computer simulation analysis can give the nonlinear optical constants. We have obtained the nonlinear refractive indices and nonlinear absorption coefficient of $CS_2$ and $BaF_2$ by fitting the experimental values and numerical simulation analysis of far-field measurements. The nonlinear refractive indices of $CS_2$ and $BaF_2$were obtained as $1.2{\times}10^{-11}$ esu and $1.0{\times}10^{-13}$ esu, respectively at 616 nm, and the nonlinear absorption coefficient of BaF$_2$as $5.0{\times}10^{-11}$cm/W at 308nm. These measured values were in good agreement with previous reports.

In order to acquire 3 components data which has the good signal to noise ratio with only one shot, 3-C geophones were used, As a result, the vertical component showed the distinct first arrival of P-wave, and the horizontal component was improved the signal to noise ratio of S-wave, while was attenuated P-wave. The 2-D Poisson's ratio section was computed from P- and S-wave cell velocities included velocity tomograms of the P- and S-waves. The Poisson's ratio values were computed in the range of $0.2{\~}0.3$. With one shot, we can obtain 2-D distribution of dynamic Poisson's ratio as well as velocity tomograms of P- and S-waves.

A Mach-Zehnder type $Ti:LiNbO_3$ optical modulator with a grooved $SiO_2$ buffer layer, was evaluated in terms of an electrode structure. The finite element method was performed to find out the optinum design parameters of electrodes. characteristic impedance ($Z_o$), MW effective index ($N_{eff}$) and attenuation constant ($a_o$)of fabricated traveling-wave electrodes were measured and compared with those obtained by the simulation expectation. For an optical modulator with 11${\mu}m$thick electrodes and a grooved $SiO_2$ buffer layer, the 3dB bandwidth based on the RF measurement results turned out to be 18GHz.

A novel UV sensor was manufactured and characterized using evanescent field coupling between photochromic dye dispersed polymer waveguide and side polished fiber. The spiroxazine (photochromic dye) dispersed polymer was used as planar waveguides. The resonant wavelength was shifted owing to refractive index variation of planar waveguide on exposed UV because of its photo-functional properties. The sensitivities are $1.21{\mu}W/mw$ and $2.75{\mu}W/mw$ when UV intensities increased after exposure times were fixed at 3 seconds and 5 seconds, respectively. Output optical power according to UV intensity increases and saturation time decreases as the intensity of UV radiations increases.
