가뭄은 홍수와는 달라서 정확한 발생시점, 지속시간, 피해반경 등을 정의하기 어렵다. 가뭄은 가뭄지수를 통해서 정의되며 정해진 지속시간에 따라서 가뭄의 특성을 평가하는 것이 일반적이다. 이러한 가뭄의 심도를 평가하기 위해서 많이 사용되는 지수로 표준강수지수(standardized precipitation index)가 있다. 본 연구에서는 6개월 지속시간에 SPI 지수를 대상으로 연구를 수행하였다. 최근 가뭄연구에서 시공간적 거동을 평가하는 연구가 중요한 연구주제로 자리 잡고 있다. 가뭄은 홍수와는 달리 공간적으로 전이되는 특성을 가지고 있어서 가뭄의 시작점과 영역반경을 평가하는 것은 가뭄을 예측하는데 있어서 기본적으로 선결되어야 한다. 그러나 상대적으로 가뭄의 시공간적 분석 연구는 많이 진행되지 않았다. 본 연구에서는 질량모멘트 개념을 도입하여 가뭄의 중심과 영역을 평가하는 기법을 개발하였다. 가뭄의 중심(centroid)은 1차모멘트를 통해서 추정되며 가뭄의 영역은 2차모멘트 즉, x방향의 공분산, y방향의 공분산, xy의 공분산을 통해서 타원(ellipse)형태로 수치적 접근이 가능하다. 다음 그림과 같이 가뭄의 중심을 1차모멘트로 추정하게 되면 +형태로 표시될 수 있으며 분산을 타원체로 표현하여 가뭄의 영역을 정의할 수 있다. 1, 2차모멘트를 추정하는데 있어서 Threshold 로 -2.0 이하의 값만을 이용하였으며 각 격자별 SPI 강도를 가중인자로 이용하였다. 그림과 같이 가뭄이 서해안에서 시작되어 시간에 따라 중동부로 퍼져나가는 것을 정량적으로 확인할 수 있다. 본 모형을 통해서 추출된 1, 2차 모멘트 정보를 활용하여 가뭄의 특성을 범주화하고 이를 기상학적 특성과 연결시키면 기상특성을 고려한 가뭄 예측모형으로의 개발도 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

In this study, we have discussed about the effect of hydrofoil arrangement and longitudinal moment characteristic on longitudinal motion stability of fully-submerged hydrofoil by the experiment of tandem hydrofoil model. First of all, tandem hydrofoil model that has canard wing arrangement has been made and characteristics of lift force and drag force by performing the lift force and drag force measuring experiment has also been estimated. Besides, tandem hydrofoil model's wing arrangement which has the initial stability and self stability of longitudinal motion has also been determined. In longitudinal stability experiment of tandem hydrofoil model, the motion characteristic of pitch and heave and the longitudinal stability of foil borne condition by variation of self stability of longitudinal moment and longitudinal distance are estimated. The result from the experiment and it's important conclusion can be described as below; Increase the self stability for longitudinal moment, the higher self stability for pitch motions in a constant pitch angles. By increasing the self stability for longitudinal moment, the range of fluctuation of pitch motion and heave motion for pitch angle also will change relatively small and longitudinal stability is excellent. Lastly, when the lift force of hydrofoil is remain constants, we can conclude that securing the enough self stability for longitudinal moment is essential for stable foil borne condition of tandem hydrofoil.

The flexural behavior of composite HSB600 and HSB800 I-girders under a positive moment was investigated using the material non-linear moment-curvature analysis method. Three representative composite sections with different ductility properties were selected as the baseline sections in this study. Using these baseline sections, the moment-curvature program was verified by comparing the flexural strength and the moment-curvature curve obtained from the program with those obtained using the non-linear FE analysis of ABAQUS. In the FE analysis, the composite girders were modeled three-dimensionally with flanges, the web, and the concrete slab as thin shell elements, and initial imperfections and residual stresses were imposed on the FE model. In the moment-curvature and FE analyses, the 28-day compressive strength of the concrete slab was assumed to be 30-50 MPa, and the HSB600 and HSB800 steels were modeled as elasto-plastic strain-hardening materials, with the concrete as the CEB-FIP model. The effects of the ductility ratio of the composite girder, the type of steel, the compressive strength of the concrete deck, and the location of the plastic neutral axis on the flexural characteristics were analyzed.

This article aims to analytically research for influence of residual stresses on bending moment responses against welded steel pipes subjected to quasi -static or dynamic loadings. The residual stresses of the welded steel pipe are computed by three-dimensional welding simulation. The bending moment responses of the welded and seamless steel pipes are determined by using three-dimensional dynamic elastoplastic FE analysis as a function of loading rate. It is seen from analytical results that the welded steel pipe shows lower moment response comparing to the seamless steel pipe, and moment difference between seamless and welded steel pipes tends to decrease as loading rate increases.

The flexural strength of composite HSB hybrid I-girders under positive moment is investigated by the moment-curvature analysis method to evaluate the applicability of the current AASHTO LRFD design specification to such girders. The hybrid girders are assumed to have the top flange and the web fabricated from HSB600 steel and the bottom flange made of HSB800 steel. More than 6,200-composite I-girder sections that satisfy the section proportion limits of AASHTOL RFD specifications are generatedby the random sampling technique to consider a statistically meaningful wide range of section properties. The flexural capacities of the sections are calculated by the nonlinear moment-curvature analysis in which the HSB600 and HSB800 steels are modeled as an elastoplastic, strain-hardening material and the concrete as CEB-FIP model. The effects of ductility ratio and compressive strength of concrete slab on the flexural strength of composite hybrid girders make of HSB steels are analyzed. Numerical results indicated that the current AASHTO-LRFD equation can be used to calculate the flexural strength of composite hybrid girders fabricated from HSB steel.

In order to properly manage trees in rivers, the impact of trees on flooding and their ecological characteristics need to be considered and a plan needs to be established. The hydraulic impact by trees is reduction of conveyance and hydraulic structure's function due to overturn arising from flow force. A field pulling test was carried out to measure the critical resistance force for when trees break in order to discover the level of resistance that trees inside the river have to external force. The relevant factors for discovering the critical breaking moment for trees include tree species, which determines the external characteristic of trees, tree diameter at breast height, and tree height. In this study, the correlation between critical breaking moment and diameter at breast height were used. The tree's limit or critical breaking moment was tested using 100 shrubs and tall trees with a breast height diameter of 4.9 to 32.8 cm. It was difficult to derive a correlation between diameter at breast height and critical breaking moment when shrubs and tall trees were being considered together, but when only tall trees were considered, a consistent correlation was found between them.

To diagnose the cardiac valve abnormalities using analysis of phonocardiogram, first of all, accurate detection of S1, S2 components is needed for heart sound segmentation. In this paper, a new method that uses the third moment characteristics of an envelope of the PCG is proposed for accurate detection of S1 and S2 components of the heart sound with cardiac murmurs. The envelope of the PCG is obtained from the short-time energy profile, and its third moment profile with slope information is used for accurate time gating of the S1, S2 components. Experimental results have shown that the proposed method is superior to the conventional second moment method for detection of S1 and S2 regions from the heart sound signals with cardiac murmurs.

We calculate moment magnitudes of earthquakes occurred in the southern part of the Korean Peninsula from January, 2001 to February, 2004 and compare them with local magnitudes published by KMA(Korea Meteorological Administration) and KIGAM(Korea Institute of Geoscience and Mineral Resources). From this study, we find that local magnitudes of KIGAM have higher correlation with moment magnitudes than local magnitudes of KMA have. We induce a proper conversion formula by analyzing relation between published local magnitudes and calculated moment magnitudes. The induced formula can be used to unify kinds of magnitudes in earthquake catalogues and unified earthquake catalogues can be applied as necessary factors for analyzing earthquake characteristics, seismic hazards or attenuation formulas in the southern part of the Korean Peninsula.

본 연구에서는 레이더 강수량 자료를 대상으로 예측모형을 구축하기에 앞서서 강수장이 가지는 특징을 활용한 Tracking 기법을 개발하고자 한다. Tracking 기법이라 함은 시간에 따라 움직이는 강수장을 추적하는 개념이다. 최근에 태풍, Hurricane 등의 경로를 추정하기 위한 방법으로 국외를 중심으로 연구가 시작되고 있다. 본 연구에서 제안하는 방법론은 모멘트 개념을 중심으로 강수장으로부터 1차모멘트와 2차모멘트를 추정함으로써 강수장의 중심, 강수장의 이동 방향, 강수장의 폭 등 다양한 정보를 유도할 수 있다. 일단 이러한 정보들이 유도되면 이를 통해 강수장의 특성을 범주화 시킬 수 있으며 이를 예측 모델과 연결시킬 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 격자형태의 레이더강수량으로부터 1, 2차모멘트를 추정하기 위한 식은 다음과 같다. 모멘트 추정을 통해 총 5 개의 속성을 추출할 수 있다. 즉, 위경도상의 도심과 방향의 공분산, y방향의 공분산, xy의 공분산 등을 이용하여 다음 그림과 같이 강수의 중심과 강수장의 형태를 수치적으로 추정할 수 있다. 강수장의 형태는 공분산으로부터 추정하여 타원체로 나타내었다. 이러한 과정을 통해 강수장의 중심과 모양의 Tracking이 가능하며 이를 활용한 예측모형의 개발이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.
