The present study experimentally considers dynamic performance of large floating wave-offshore hybrid power generation platform in extreme conditions. In order to evaluate the motion performance of the large floating hybrid power generation platform, 1/50 scaled model was manufactured. A mooring line was also manufactured, and free-decay and static pull-out tests were carried out to check the mooring model. A mooring line table was introduced to satisfy the water depth, and environmental conditions were checked. Motion responses in regular waves were measured and complicated environmental conditions including wave, wind, and current were applied to see the dynamic performance in extreme/survival conditions. Maximum motion and acceleration were judged following the design criteria, and maximum offset and mooring tension were also checked based on the rule. The characteristics of hybrid power generation platform are discussed based on these data.

Higher sigma quality level is generally perceived by customers as improved performance by assigning a correspondingly higher satisfaction score. The process capability indices and the sigma level $Z_{st}$ ave been widely used in six sigma industries to assess process performance. Most evaluations on process capability indices focus on statistical estimation under normal process which may result in unreliable assessments of process performance. In this paper, we consider statistical estimation for bivariate VPCI(Vector-valued Process Capability Index) $C_{pkl}=(C_{pklx},\;C_{pklx})$ under Marshall and Olkin (1967)'s bivariate exponential process. First, we derive some limiting distribution for statistical inference of bivariate VPCI $C_{pkl}$. And we propose two asymptotic normal confidence regions for bivariate VPCI $C_{pkl}$. The proposed method may be very useful under bivariate exponential process. A numerical result based on our proposed method shows to be more reliable.

As the demand on long span structures increases more in recent years, the excessive deflection, in addition to the ultimate strength, in horizontal members becomes a very important issue. For this reason, as an alternative method to effectively solve the deflection problems, the application of post-tensioned structural system with unbonded tendon increases gradually. However, most of the existing researches on post-tensioned members with unbonded tendons (UPT) focused on the ultimate flexural strength, which would be impossible or improper to check serviceability such as deflections. Therefore, this study aims at proposing a stress prediction model for unbonded tendons that is applicable to the behavior of UPT members from the very initial loading stages, post-cracking states, and service to ultimate conditions. The applicability and accuracy of the proposed model were also evaluated comparing to the existing test results from literature. Based on such comparison results, it was verified that the proposed model provided very good predictions on tendon stresses of UPT members at various loading stages regardless their different characteristics; wide range of reinforcement index, different loading patterns, and etc. The proposed model especially well considered the effect of various loading types on stress increases of unbonded tendons, and it was also very suitable to apply on the over-reinforced members that easily happened during strengthening/repairing work.

In this study, long-term rainfall data of more than 300 years including the paleoclimatic rainfall data from Chuk Woo Kee (1777-1907), the modern observed rainfall data (1908-2015), and the climate change scenario (2016-2099), which were provided by KMA (Korea Meteorological Agency), was used to analyze the statistical characteristics of the extreme drought in the Seoul., Annual average rainfall showed an increasing trend over a entire period, and Wavelet transform analysis of SPI (Standardized Precipitation Index) which is meteorological drought index, showed 64 to 80 months (5-6 Year) of drought periods for Chuk Woo Kee and KMA data, 96 to 128 months (8 to 10 years) of drought period for climate change data. The dry spell analysis showed that the drought occurrence frequency in the ancient period was high, but frequency was gradually decreased in the modern and future periods. In addition, through the analysis of the drought magnitude, 1901 was the extreme drought year in Seoul, and 1899-1907 was the worst consecutive 9 years long term drought in Seoul.

This research was carried out to estimate annual erosion and retreat rates by using datum-point and to identify the characteristics and causes of seasonal variations of sea-cliff slope in Pado-ri, Taean-gun. In the result, the erosion and retreat rates of sea-cliff were increased from spring to summer. The rates were increased rapidly between August and October, caused by the effects of extreme weather events such as severe rainstorms and typhoons, etc. Since then, the erosion and retreat rates of sea-cliff were decreased gradually, but the rates were increased again in winter due to the storm surge and mechanical weathering resulting from the repeated freezing and thawing actions of bed rocks. The factors that affect erosion and retreat rates of sea-cliff include the number of days with antecedent participation and daily maximum wave height. In particular, it turned out that the erosion is accelerated by strong wave energy during storm surges and typhoons. The annual erosion and retreat rates of study area for the past two years(from May 2010 to May 2012) were approximately 44~60cm/yr in condition of differences in geomorphological and geological characteristics at each point. These erosion and retreat rates were found to be higher than results of previous researches. This is caused by coastal erosion forces strengthened by extreme weather events. The erosion and retreat process of sea-cliff in the study area is composed by denudation of onshore areas in addition to marine erosion(wave energy).

The number of natural disasters in Korea, such as earthquakes, is increasing. As a result, there is growing need for temporary residences or shelters for disaster conditions. The aim of this study was to produce post-disaster refugees housing differentiated from existing shelters using lightweight composite panels. To accomplish this, the structural performance of lightweight composite panels was validated, and an in-plane shear strength test was conducted according to the ASTM E72 criteria among the performance test methods for panels. As a result of the experiment, the maximum load for each specimen under an in-plane shear load was determined. All the experiments ended with the tear of the panel's skin section. The initial stiffness of the specimens was consistent with that predicted by the calculations. On the other hand, local crushing and tearing, as well as the characteristics of the panel, resulted in a decrease in stiffness and final failure. Specimens with an opening showed a difference in stiffness and strength from the basic experiment. The maximum load and the effective area were found to be proportional. Through this process, the allowable shear stress of the specimens was calculated and the average allowable shear stress was determined. The average ultimate shear stress of the lightweight composite panels was found to be $0.047N/mm^2$, which provides a criterion of judgement that could be used to expect the allowable load of lightweight composite panels.

The subjective research attempts to apply a rainfall-runoff model capable of considering time-variation of soil water contents which are highly correlated to the river flows on the qpqyungchang river basin and to evaluate its performance for flow forecasting. The model used in this study is a physically-based conceptual time-continuous model, which is composed of the Sacramento soil moisture accounting model and the nonlinear multiple conceptual reservoirs model. The daily precipitation and evaporation data for 7 years and for 3 years were used for the parameter estimation and the model verification, respectively. As a result, the flows including a significant flood event were well simulated, and the cross-correlation coefficient between observed flows and computed flows for the verification periods was 0.87, but in general computed flows were underestimated for the low-flow periods. Also, the effects of precipitation and soil water content to the river flows were analysed for the flood and the drought.

전세계적의 지구온난화에 따른 기후변화 영향으로 기온상승, 강우증가, 해수면 상승 등에 자연재난의 발생이 증가하고 있다. 그 중 가뭄의 경우 전조증상, 발생원인, 발생기간 뿐만 아니라 대상범위나 피해범위도 불명확하다. 가뭄은 근본적으로 강우량의 부족으로 시작되며 농업, 생활, 공업 등의 전반적인 피해를 발생시킨다. 최근에는 기후변화의 영향으로 기온증가, 해수면상승, 극한호우, 메가가뭄 등 전세계적으로 다양한 자연재난이 빈번히 발생하고 있다. 가뭄은 태풍, 홍수, 지진 등의 자연재난 중에서도 가장 광범위한 피해를 유발시키는 재난이라고 할 수 있다. 미국의 National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration에서는 20세기의 관측된 가장 심각한 자연재난 중 하나로 가뭄이 선정되었으며 최근 기후변화에 따른 기온 및 강수의 증가는 가뭄피해의 직간접적인 영향으로 피해가 급증할 것이라고 하였다. 본 연구에서는 농업·생활·공업 가뭄에 대하여 피해액과 복구액에 대한 정량적 피해특성을 산정할 수 있는 추정식을 제안하고자 한다. 농업·생활·공업 가뭄에 대한 피해액은 다양한 인자들을 고려하며 매년 변화하는 물가를 반영하여 피해액의 추정식을 제안하였다. 또한, 복구액은 가뭄피해발생으로 발생될 수 있는 농업·생활·공업의 특성에 맞는 복구인자를 구성하였으며 피해에 대한 복구뿐만 아니라 인적, 물적 자원에 대한 인자도 포함하였다. 본 연구에서 산정된 농업·생활·공업 가뭄의 피해액 추정식의 경우 정량적 검증을 위해 1965년부터 2018년까지 국내에서 발생된 가뭄피해와를 대상으로 비교 분석하였다.

국내의 댐·하천 설계기준은 다양한 수자원 시설물 설계 시에 활용되고 있으나, 강우사상에 대한 분석은 과거의 강우 사상에 대한 통계분석에 따라 수행되어 기후변화의 영향을 고려하지 않고 있다. 또한, 하천 설계기준에서는 홍수량 산정에 대한 방안을 명시한 바에 따르면, 홍수량 산정 표준지침에서 활용하는 빈도해석을 활용하는 방안 또는 강우-유출모형을 활용한 방안을 제시하고 있으나, 홍수량 산정 표준지침 역시 미래 강수 변화에 대한 구체적인 방안을 반영하지 않고 있는 실정이다. 전 세계적인 기후변화는 국내의 기후변동성을 증가시켜 극한강우사상의 빈도와 강도를 증대시키므로 이를 고려한 미래강우에 대한 분석이 필요한 시점이다. 일반적으로 기후 전망에 활용되는 전지구 모델(Global Climate Model; GCM)은 한반도의 복잡한 지형을 고려하기 어려우므로 지역적인 강제력을 보다 효과적으로 고려하기 위하여 지역기후모델(Regional Climate Model; RCM)을 사용하고 있다. 역학적으로 상세화 된 RCM은 비교적 고해상도의 자료를 제공하고 있으나, 강수량을 전반적으로 과소 추정하는 것으로 알려지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 지속시간 1-24시간 연최대 강우량(annual maximum rainfalls; AMRs)과 역학적 상세화 된 SSP 시나리오 일 자료를 활용하며, Copula 함수 기반의 상세화 모형을 통해 Sub-Daily 정보를 시간적으로 상세화 하였다. 최종적으로 이를 활용하여 미래 IDF 곡선을 유도하였다. 산정된 IDF 곡선 결과를 활용하여 기후변화의 영향을 고려한 설계강수량 변화량을 정량적으로 제시하고자 한다.

본 연구에서는 미래 기후변화가 하천 및 호소수질에 미치는 영향을 평가하고자 유역 수문-수질 모의가 가능한 SWAT(Soil and water assessment tool) 모형과 호소수질 모의가 가능한 WASP(Water Quality Simulation Program) 모형을 연계운영하여 충주호를 포함하는 충주댐 유역($6,642.0km^2$)에 적용하였다. 이를 위해 IPCC(Intergovernmental panel on climate change)에서 제공하는 A1B 배출시나리오를 포함하는 MIROC3.2 hires 모형의 결과로부터 충주댐 유역의 총 6개 기상관측소에 대한 과거 30년(1997~2006) 실측자료를 바탕으로 미래 온도와 강수에 대한 편이보정(Bias correction) 및 Change Factor Method로 상세화(Downscaling)하여 미래 기후자료(2020s, 2050s, 2080s)를 생산하였다. 미래 연평균 온도는 기준년도인 2000년에 비해 최대 $+4.8^{\circ}C$(2080s)의 온도증가를 보였으며, 강수량의 경우 여름과 가을 강수량이 다소 감소하였으나 연평균 강수량은 최대 +34.4%(2080s) 증가하는 것으로 전망되었다. 먼저, SWAT 모형을 이용한 기후변화에 따른 댐 유입량은 39.8%(2080s) 증가는 것으로 분석되었으며 유역의 유출특성 변화로 인한 유사량은 지표유출변화에 기인하여 봄과 겨울에 증가하는 경향과 함께 -14.5%(2020s) ~ +27.3%(2080s)의 변화를 보이는 것으로 분석되었다. 영양물질에 대한 오염부하량은 2080s에서 T-N이 증가추세를 보이며 최대 87.3% 까지 증가하는 반면, T-P는 유사량과 유사한 변화패턴을 보이며 최대 48.4%까지 감소하는 것으로 분석되었다. 호소수질 모델링을 위한 충주호의 Segment 구성은 충주댐1 지점에서부터 충주댐4 지점까지 전체 수표면적 $65.7km^2$에 대하여 상층과 하층 총 760개로 구성하였으며, SWAT 모형에 의한 충주호 유입하천 소유역에서의 미래 유출 및 영양물질 자료를 WASP 모형의 초기값으로 입력하여 수체 내의 BOD, Chl-a, T-N, T-P 변화 분석을 실시하였다. 이와 같이 지구 온난화에 의한 기후변화는 강우특성 변화에 따른 가뭄과 홍수 등 극한 기상현상의 발생, 유역 물순환 체계 변화를 야기 시키므로서 수자원 부존량 변화에 영향을 미칠 뿐만 아니라 기온상승에 따른 수온변화, 비점오염물질의 거동에도 변화를 초래하여 하천 및 호소 수질에 큰 영향을 미칠 것으로 판단된다.
