In this paper, the effects of superstrate on the radiation patterns of dipole on cylindrical bianisotropic substrates were studied. Special constitutive relations are used to describe the bianisotropic properties of a material, such that the Green's function can be formulated. Electromagnetic fields and boundary conditions in spectral region were used to find Green's function of the spectral representation and electromagnetic fields in space region were derived through inverse Fourier transformations of fields in spectral region using asymptotic formula for far zone. Radiation characteristics of axial Hertzian dipole on superstrate loaded cylindrical bianisotropic substrates were obtained. The effects of bianisotropic superstrate on the radiation properties of the antennas including beam scanning, directivity enhancement, dark-region illumination, and on horizon radiation, are discussed.

Application fields of ultrasonic transducers can be divided into two categories, a high ultrasonic resolution required field and a high ultrasonic power required field. This paper is aimed to determine the optimal properties of the matching layers of the transducer for each of the applications. Further, it is aimed to optimize the properties of the matching layers that show satisfactory performances for both of the application fields. Through the direct time domain analysis of the transmission and reflection behavior of the ultrasonic wave, apart from the conventional equivalent circuit analysis, and Fourier transformation of its results, we found the optimum acoustic impedances of the matching layers. The newly determined layers provide much better transducer performance-57% at most-than those obtained with conventional design methods. Based on the results, we also found the optimal acoustic impedances of the layers good for both of the application fields. For te optimization, we developed a new transducer performance evaluation parameter that can be applied to any type of ultrasonic transducers.

글래스(glass), 폴리머 또는 쿼츠와 같은 투명기판은 렌즈, 디스플레이, 광검출기, 광센서, 발광다이오드 및 태양전지와 같은 광 및 광전소자 분야에서 널리 사용되고 있다. 이러한 소자들의 경우, 광추출 또는 광흡수 효율을 향상시키는 것이 매우 중요하다. 그러나 투명기판의 경우, 약 1.5의 굴절율로 인해 표면에서 4% 반사가 발생되는데, 이러한 광학적 손실은 소자의 성능을 저하시키는 원인이 된다. 따라서, 글래스와 공기 경계면에서 발생되는 광손실을 줄이기 위한 효율적인 무반사 코팅이 필요하다. 최근, 우수한 내구성 뿐만 아니라, 광대역 파장 및 다방향성에서 무반사 특성을 보이는 서브파장 주기를 갖는 나노구조(subwavelength structures)의 형성 및 제작 공정에 관한 연구가 보고되고 있다. 이러한 나노구조는 경사 굴절율 분포를 가지는 유효 매질을 형성하기 때문에 투명기판 표면에서의 Fresnel 반사로 인한 광손실을 줄일 수 있다. 또한, 무반사 서브파장구조를 형성하기 위한 패터닝 방법으로, 간단/저렴하고 대면적 제작이 용이한 열적 응집 공정을 이용한 자가정렬된 금속 나노입자 형성 기술이 널리 사용되고 있다. 따라서 본 실험에서는 열적 응집현상에 의해 형성된 비주기적 금 나노입자 식각 마스크 패턴 및 유도결합 플라즈마 장비를 이용하여 글래스 기판 위에 무반사 서브파장 나노구조를 제작하였다. 금 나노패턴 및 제작된 글래스 서브파장 나노구조의 식각 프로파일은 주사전자현미경을 사용하여 관찰하였으며, UV-Vis-NIR 스펙트로미터를 사용하여 빛의 투과율을 측정하였다. 또한, 제작된 샘플들에 대해서, 표면 접촉각 측정 장비를 이용하여 표면 wettability를 조사하였다.

For the purpose of evaluating dose rate to individual due to long-term release of nuclides from the HLW repository, a biosphere assessment model and the implemented code, ACBIO, based on BIOMASS methodology have been developed by utilizing AMBER, a general compartment modeling tool. To show its practicability and usability as well as to see the sensitivity of compartment scheme or parametric variation to concentration and activity in compartments as well as annual flux between compartments at their peak values, some calculations are made and investigated: For each case when changing the structure of compartments and GBIs as well as varying selected input Kd values, all of which seem very important among others, dose rate per nuclide release rate is separately calculated and analyzed. From the maximum dose rates (Bq/y), flux-to-dose conversion factors (Sv/Bq) for each nuclide were derived, which are to be used for converting the nuclide release rate appearing from the geosphere through various GBIs to dose rate (Sv/y) for individual in critical group. It has been also observed that compartment scheme, identification of possible exposure group and GBIs could be all highly sensitive to the final consequences in biosphere modeling.

지하수 해석을 위해 3차원 수치해석 모형이 적용되고 있으나, 다양한 매개변수를 명확히 적용하기에는 한계가 있다. 특히, 수리전도도는 지층의 투수성정도를 나타내는 계수로 지하수 분석에 매우 중요한 매개변수이다. 신뢰성의 확보를 위해 양수시험을 통해 산출된 결과를 이용하고 있으나 소수관정의 시험결과를 유역의 대푯값으로 적용하기에 불확실도가 매우 높고, 수위변화가 독특한 지역의 정확한 수리특성을 적용하기에 한계가 있다. 이 연구에서는 수리전도도 특성을 해석하기 위하여 3차원 수치해석모형을 적용하였으며, 모델보정 방법 중 Regularization(정규화)라고 불리는 Pilot point 기법을 사용하였다. 제주도와 같이 수리전도도 값이 지역별로 차이가 크고 동일 유역 내에도 다른 지질구조를 보이는 등 동일 매질에서 동일 투수성을 보이지 않는 다양함으로 실측값들을 적용하기에 어려운 곳에서 정규화라는 보정방법은 최적화된 방법이다. 지하수위는 중제주유역 내 위치한 12개소 수위관측정의 2016년 연평균수위를 적용하였다. 미계측지역은 제주도 등수위선자료를 이용하여 DEM을 구축하였으며, 임의지점 17개소를 선정하여 대표수위로 적용하였다. 중제주유역의 평균 수리전도도는 82.90 m/day로 분석되었으며, 유역의 동측 하류부는 최대 1,745 m/day로 비교적 큰 결과가 산출되었다. 유역의 중앙에 위치하는 OR관측정을 기준으로 동 서지역의 지하수위를 검토한 결과 서측은 지형구배에 따라 지하수위가 형성하고 있으나, 동측의 경우 상 하류의 표고차가 30m이상 발생되지만 지하수위는 유사한 형태를 보이고 있다. 지하수 흐름에 해석되는 Darcy의 방정식은 수리전도도와 동수경사는 반비례관계를 나타내며, 이 이론에 의해 상 하류 지하수위가 유사하게 형성되는 동측지역은 국부적으로 수리전도도가 높게 형성되는 것으로 확인되었다. 실무에서는 유역경계에 따라 평균화된 매개변수가 적용되므로 명확한 지하수 해석이 어렵고, 수리전도도와 같이 지역적 편차가 심한 매개변수는 다양한 연구를 통해 적용성검토가 수행되어야 한다.

The amplitude variation with offset of seismic data can detect fluids in the sediment and resolve the petrophysical properties of hydrocarbons in the subsurface. We analyzed and described the amplitude variation in deep sea seismic data obtained from the Ulleung Basin, East Sea. By inspecting seismic CDP-offset and CDP-angle gathers which show a bright reflection event, we decided a target zone for amplitude variation analysis. From the seismic angle gather at the middle of Ulleung Basin, we recognized amplitude increase or decrease versus offset on the intercept-gradient curve. Using the product attribute and Poisson's ratio change attribute computed in terms of intercept with gradient, the top and the base of gas saturated sediments were described. The area of amplitude variation suggestive of the presence of gas saturated sediments is shown at the depth of 3 s traveltime. Anomalous features of seismic amplitude in the Ulleung Basin were classified by the crossplot of intercept and gradient. The background trend of crossplot between intercept and gradient shows an inverse proportional relation that is common for wet sediments. Anomalous amplitudes of Class III fall into the first and the third quadrants on crossplots. We inferred regional gas/water saturated area with the horizontal dimension of 150 m in the Ulleung Basin by cross-section with respect to cross-plot anomaly.

In recent years two reflection methods, i.e. GPR and seismic Impact-Echo, are usually performed to obtain the information about tunnel lining structures composed of concrete lining, shotcrete, water barrier, and voids at the back of lining. However, they do not lead to a desirable resolution sufficient for the inspection of tunnel safety, due to many problems of interest including primarily (1) inner thin layers of lining structure itself in comparison with the wavelength of source wavelets, (2) dominant unwanted surface wave arrivals, (3) inadequate measuring strategy. In this sense, seismic physical modeling is a useful tool, with the use of the full information about the known physical model, to handle such problems, especially to study problems of wave propagation in such fine structures that are not amenable to theory and field works as well. Thus, this paper deals with various results of seismic physical modeling to enable to show a possibility of detecting the inner layer boundaries of tunnel lining structures. To this end, a physical model analogous to a lining structure was built up, measured and processed in the same way as performed in regular reflection surveys. The evaluated seismic section gives a clear picture of the lining structure, that will open up more consistent direction of research into the development of an efficient measuring and processing technology.

GPR(Ground Penetrating Radar) was used for imaging the interior of the historical masonry such as stone pagoda in order to provide the basic information of safely inspection. The scope of the imaging was restricted to the foundation part of stone pagoda that transferred the load of the pagoda to the ground. Kirchhoff migration and traveltime tomography was used for imaging the outer stone and the inside of stone pagoda, respectively. From the migrated images, we could measure the thickness and the shape of the boundaries of the outer stone in the foundation part. From the reconstructed tomograms for the physical model, we could get the GPR propagation velocity distribution and exactly find the position of the air in the model and calculate the average velocity with respect to the different filling materials. The properties and the shape of the interior materials of stone pagoda can be basic informations for the safety inspection.

In this study, the fluid flow and heat transfer characteristics within sandwich panels are investigated using computational fluid dynamics. Within the sandwich panels having periodic cellular cores, air can freely move inside the core section so that the structure is able to perform multi-functional roles such as simultaneous load bearing and heat dissipation. Thus, there needs to examine the thermal and flow analysis with respect to design variables and various conditions. In this regard, ANSYS Fluent was utilized to explore the flow and heat transfer within the pyramidal truss sandwich structures by varying the truss angle and inlet velocity. Without the entry effect in the first unitcell, the constant rate of pressure and the constant rate of Nusselt number was observed. As a result, it was demonstrated that Nusselt number increases and friction factor decreases as the inlet velocity increases. Moreover, the rate of Nusselt number and friction factor was appreciable in the range of V=1-5m/s due to the transition from laminar to turbulent flow. Regarding the effect of design variable, the variation of truss angle did not significantly influence the characteristics.

This paper investigates the effect of rock discontinuities on a shear stress wave that is induced by earthquake or blasting and provides the result of numerical parametric studies. The numerical tests of different conditions of rock and discontinuity have been carried out after confirming that the numerical approach is valid throughout a verification analysis from which the test results were compared with a theoretical solution. In-situ stress condition was considered as a rock condition and internal friction angle and cohesive value, which are the shear strength parameters, were considered as discontinuities condition. The joint inclination angle was also taken into account as a parameter. With the various conditions of different parameters, the test results showed that a shear stress wave propagating through a mass is highly influenced by the shear strength of discontinuities and the condition of joint inclination angle as well as in-situ stress. The study results indicate that when earthquake or blasting-induced dynamic loading propagates through a jointed rock mass or a stratified soil ground the effect of in-situ stress and discontinuities including a stratum boundary should be taken into account when evaluating the dynamic effect on nearby facilities and structures.
