In this study, we use 1:1, 1:2, and 1:4 scale zig-zag shape acoustic metamaterial structure to achieve broad and effective sound blocking at the subwavelength scale. The SPL(Sound Pressure Level) results show that the SPL loss of the scaled metamaterial slab in series is a superposition of individual SPL losses. Also, we show that the metamaterial tailors the material properties to achieve high impedance and high refractive index using effective medium theory. Our results show that broad and effective sound blocking is possible at the subwavelength scale just by scaling acoustic metamaterial.

A rational and straightforward method is introduced for developing continuum models of large platelike periodic lattice structures based on energy equivalence, The procedure for developing continuum models involves using existing finite element matrices in calculating strain and kinetic energies of a repeating cell. The equivalent continuum plate properties are obtained from the direct comparison of the reduced stiffness and mass matrices for continuum and lattice plates. Numerical results prove that the method developed in this paper shows very good agreement with other well-recognized methods.

기후변화로 인한 강수의 양과 패턴의 변화는 가뭄이나 홍수와 같은 극한사상의 발생가능성을 점차 증가시키고 있다. 이러한 극한사상의 발생에 대비하고자 기후변화가 가뭄이나 홍수에 미치는 영향 평가에 대한 연구가 전 세계적으로 활발히 진행 중이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 월 단위로 IPCC를 통해서 제공되는 Global Climate Model(GCM)중 하나인 BCM2 모형(A2 시나리오 선택)을 기반으로 기후변화가 한반도 가뭄에 미치는 영향평가 방안을 제시하고자 한다. 우선 전구단위 기후모형인 BCM2 모형을 격자단위 관측자료인 NCEP(National Centers for Environmental Prediction)자료를 이용하여 서울기상관측소 지점으로 축소하였다. 또한 축소된 강우자료의 편의를 보정하기 위하여 Quantile mapping 기법을 적용하였으며, 최종적으로 제시된 서울지점의 월 강우를 대상으로 표준강수지수(SPI)를 산정하여 기후변화가 서울지점의 가뭄에 미치는 영향을 평가하였다. 분석결과 기후변화를 고려할 경우, 전반적인 가뭄의 심도는 크게 깊어지지 않았으나 가뭄의 지속기간이 길어져 가뭄으로 인한 피해가 더욱 증가할 것으로 예상되었다.

The purpose of this study was to look into the feasibility of site suitability focused on the potential for environmentally- and water-friendly recreation area development in a wide area(Nakdong River 35km) and to study new methods for providing basic data in regard to the recreation planning over a wide area as well as in application to other sites. The results of this study are as follows. Through classification by mesh method, the site of this study was classified into 42 grids, and by means of the analysis of evaluation indicators, 20 indicators were established and sorted into 4 types of significant recreation activity. According to the results of the analysis for each recreation activity type, there were 8 essentials for water-friendly recreation activity types based on water use while water-friendly recreation types for static activity included 12 sub-essentials. As a result of the first evaluation(the minimum required evaluation) by each classified grid, 32 of the 42 total grids were implemented by the minimum requirements. These grids were usually distributed evenly through the whole site. In terms of the second evaluation(specific site evaluation) results, 6 grids were highly suitable for recreational nature experiences and landscape ecological learning, 4 grids for developing water-friendly recreation for exercise, 1 grid for building water-friendly recreation based on water use, and 4 grids for planning water-friendly recreation for static activity. The results of the grid evaluation of this study could be extended to contiguous grids or reduced. Actual planning for a water-friendly recreation area must change the grid shape or size through boundary adjustments.

In recent years, the structure of the population has been changing rapidly, with a declining birthrate and aging population, and the inequality of population distribution is expanding. At this point, changes in population estimation methods are required, and more accurate estimates are needed at the subregional level. This study aims to estimate the population in 2040 at the 500m grid level by applying an explainable machine learning to Busan in order to respond to this need for a change in population estimation method. Comparing the results of population estimation by applying the explainable machine learning and the cohort component method, we found that the machine learning produces lower errors and is more applicable to estimating areas with large population changes. This is because machine learning can account for a combination of variables that are likely to affect demographic change. Overestimated population values in a declining population period are likely to cause problems in urban planning, such as inefficiency of investment and overinvestment in certain sectors, resulting in a decrease in quality in other sectors. Underestimated population values can also accelerate the shrinkage of cities and reduce the quality of life, so there is a need to develop appropriate population estimation methods and alternatives.
