Hwajinpo Lagoon, located on the eastern coast of Korea, is a unique environment where freshwater and saltwater are mixed. Systematic management of the lagoon is required because it is a biodiversity-rich and area of high conservation value. The existing environment of the lagoon was evaluated by identifying the distribution of the groundwater level and groundwater flow characteristics. In addition, hydrogeochemical fluctuations were analyzed to determine the effect of seawater intrusion into the aquifer. The results demonstrate that the freshwater-saltwater interface is distributed throughout the aquifer and rises when water of the lagoon evaporates due to prolonged periods of low rainfall and high temperature, thereby increasing the possibility of seawater inflow through groundwater. As for the ionic delta properties (difference between the measured and theoretical concentration of mixed waters), it was estimated that the cation-exchange and precipitation reactions occurred in the aquifer due to seawater intrusion. The ratio of seawater mixed at each point was calculated, using oxygen isotopes and chloride as tracers, resulting in an average of 0.3 and a maximum of 0.87. The overall seawater mixing ratio appears to be distributed according to the distance from the coast. However, some of the results were deviated from the theoretical expectations and reflected the characteristics of the nearby aquifers. Further research on seasonal changes and simulation of seawater intrusion mechanisms is required for specific analysis.

하천에서 유사량은 침식(Erosion), 유송(Transport), 퇴적(Deposition)의 3단계 과정으로 진행되며 이 과정에서 다양한 유사 문제가 수반되고 있다. 특히, 하상변동의 예측, 하천계획 수립 등 수자원 개발을 위해 유사량 조사는 반드시 필요하다. 따라서 국외에서는 오래전부터 하천 유사이송과정에 대한 이론적인 개념을 정립하고 양질의 유사량 자료를 위해 연구해 오고 있다. 국내에서는 대표적으로 한국수자원조사기술원에서 유사량조사 업무를 수행하고 있으며 국가유사량관측망 중 매년 약 20개소~30개소의 지점을 대상으로 신뢰성 있는 자료를 만들기 위해 지속적으로 연구하고 있다. 유사량 조사의 항목 중 부유사 채취를 위한 측선수는 하천 폭(ISO 기준)에 따라 5개~7개의 측선에서 부유사를 채취하고 있으며, 강우가 활발한 홍수기 전, 후로 단면측량 및 하상토 자료를 통해 총유사량을 산정하고 있다. 본 연구의 분석방법으로는 이신재(2021)가 제안한 방법을 착안하였고, 측선별 부유사농도와 평균부유사농도의 비교분석 통해 상관계수(R²)가 가장 높은 측선을 선택하여 지표부유사량(Index Suspended Sediment) 산정에 활용하였다. 대상지점으로는 연속 유사량 자료 생산이 가능한 낙동강유역의 함안군(계내리) 관측소와 영산강유역의 구례군(구례교) 관측소를 선정하였다. 먼저, 지표 유사량은 평균부유사농도와 측선별 부유사농도를 비교분석하였으며, 함안군(계내리) 관측소는 5번 측선(R²=0.9869), 구례군(구례교) 관측소는 2번 측선(R²=0.9929)을 통해 지표부유사량을 산정하였다. 그 결과 하천특성에 따라 측정된 부유사량과 지표부유사량의 편차율(함안군(계내리) : 최대 33%, 최소 1%, 구례군(구례교) : 최대 25%, 최소 1%)이 다소 상이한 구간이 발생하였지만 이들의 상관계수(R²)는 각각 0.9922, 0.9947로 매우 높게 산정되었다. 이러한 결과를 통해 제시한 지표 설정은 실제 업무에서 활용 가능할 것으로 판단되며, 추후 과거년도의 하천특성과 수리특성 분석을 통해 해당지점의 대표적인 측선을 선정해 연속적인 지표 유사량 자료 생산이 가능하다면 향후 자동 유사량 채수장치 설치를 통해 안정된 유사량 자료 제공이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

The purpose of the study is to analyze the hydrogeochemical characteristics by multivariate statistical method, to interpret the hydrogeochemical processes for the new variables calculated from principal components analysis (PCA), and to infer the groundwater flow and circulation mechanism by applying the geostatistical methods for each element and principal component. Chloride and nitrate are the most influencing components for groundwater quality, and the contents of $NO_3$ increased by the input of agricultural activities show the largest variation. The results of PCA, a multivariate statistical method, show that the first three principal components explain $73.9\%$ of the total variance. PC1 indicates the increase of dissolved ions, PC2 is related with the dissolution of carbonate minerals and nitrate contamination, and PC3 shows the effect of cation exchange process and silicate mineral dissolution. From the results of experimental semivariogram, the components of groundwater are divided into two groups: one group includes electrical conductivity (EC), Cl, Na, and $NO_3$, and the other includes $HCO_3,\;SiO_2,$ Ca, and Sr. The results for spatial distribution of groundwater components showed that EC, Cl, and Na increased with approaching the coastal line and nitrate has close relationship with the presence of agricultural land. These components are also correlated with the topographic features reflecting the groundwater recharge effect. The kriging analysis by using principal components shows that PC 1 has the different spatial distribution of Cl, Na, and EC, possibly due to the influence of pH, Ca, Sr, and $HCO_3$ for PC1. It was considered that the linear anomaly zone of PC2 in western area was caused by the dissolution of carbonate mineral. Consequently, the application of multivariate and geostatistical methods for groundwater in the study area is very useful for determining the quantitative analysis of water quality data and the characteristics of spatial distribution.

Male Mongolian gerbils $(60{\sim}80g)$ were given DL-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO; 250mg/kg, ip) and methylglyoxal bis(guanylhydrazone) (MGBG; 50 mg/k, ip), respectively, 1 h prior to transient (7 min) occlusion of bilateral common carotid arteries (OBC7) and a daily dose of one of them for 6 days after recirculation, and the polyamine contents, activities of ornithine and S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylases (ODC and SAM-DC), and light microscopic findings of the hippocampus were evaluated. The hippocampal putrescine (PT) levels of the control gerbils treated with saline (STGr), markedly increased after OBC7, showing a peak level at 24 h after recirculation. The peak PT level was reduced in DFMO treated gerbils (DTCr) and in MGBG treated gerbils (MTGr). And 7 days after recirculation, the PT level of DTGr was decreased to about 75% of the PT level in the sham operated group (nonTGr) and to about 55% of the STGr level, respectively. The hippocampal spermidine (SD) level of STGr tended to decline, showing the lowest value at 8 h after recirculation. But the spermidine (SD) level of DTGr was somewhat higher at 8 h after OBC7 than those of STGr and MTGr The hippocampal spermine (SM) levels of all the experimental groups were little changed for 7 days after OBC. OBC7 markedly increased the hippocampal ODC activity. reaching a maximum (about 3 times higher than preischemic level) at 8 h and rapidly recovered to the control value by 24 h in STGr gerbils, and the OBC7-induced increase of ODC activity was significantly attenuated by DFMO or MGBG treatment. Whereas OBC7 induced a rapid decrease of the hippocampal SAMDC activity follwed by gradual recovery to the preischemic level, and the decrease of the SAMDC activity was slightly attenuated by DFMO or MGBG treatment. 7 Days after OBC7 the histological finding of the hippocampal complex stained with cresyl violet showed an extensive delayed neuronal damage in the CA1 region and to a lesser extent, in the dentate gyrus, sparing the CA3 region. And the neuronal death was aggevated by DFMO but significantly attenuated by MGBG. The immunochemical reactivity of hippocampus to anti-GFAP antibody was significantly increased in the CA1 region and to a lesser extent, in the dentate gyrus 7 days after OBC7, but was little changed in the CA3. And the increase of the anti-GFAP immunoreactivity was moderately enhanced by DFMO and significantly suppressed by MGBG. These results suggest that the polyamine metabolism may play a modulatory role in the ischemic brain damage.

Recently, as digital photogrammetry bas been widely used in various fields including construction, it is also being applied to several industries. It is essential for interior orientation to determine accurate focal length of camera, lens distortion, location of principal point in order to apply high quality digital camera to digital photogrammetry. In this study we conducted interior orientation for zoom lens camera with regular time and zoom factors and analyzed change of radial distortion parameters and location of principal point to evaluate interior orientation stability. As a result, radial distortion parameters($k_1,k_2$) are converged into zero by increasing zoom factors. There are correlation between the change of location of point and zoom factors. The displacement of $x_p$, $y_p$ increase as zoom factors rise high.

The Multihop Routing of vehicle communication environment is difficult to maintain due to heavy fluctuation of network topology and routing channel according to the movement of the vehicle, road property, vehicle distribution. We implemented GeoNetworking on the basis of ETSI(European Telecommunication Standard Institute) to maintain the vehicle safety service. GeoNetworking has its own way that delivers the data through the Unicast and Broadcast. In this paper, we compared performance index such as packet delivery ratio, end-to-end delay about GeoNetworking using the QualNet Network Simulator. Previous research assessed performance of GeoUnicast. This research has been additionally performed about GeoBroadcast, and we progressed algorithm performance through the comparison of CBF(Contention based Forwarding) of GeoUnicast with Greedy forwarding of GeoBroadcast.

최근 석유공급 불안정성과 이산화탄소 배출 규제 움직임에 대응하기 위한 수단으로 바이오연료의 공급이 전세계적으로 증가하고 있다. 이와 같은 바이오디젤의 보급 활성화는 식물성 기름의 가격 상승과 수급 불안정 문제, 그리고 식량자원과의 충돌 문제를 야기하고 있다. 국내 바이오디젤 생산 원료로 사용되는 대두, 유채, 해바라기, 팜 등은 모두 식용시장과 수급 균형을 형성하고 있어 바이오디젤의 생산이 증가하게 되면 식용 오일 시장의 수급균형이 깨져 오일곡물 가격의 변동을 초래하게 될 것이다. 과거에는 수거비용을 들여 폐기하던 폐식용유 마저 이제는 돈을 주고 구입해야하는 실정에 다다랐다. 바이오디젤 생산비의 70~80%를 차지하는 원료유의 부족 현상에 따라 바이오디젤 업계에서는 soapstock, trapped grease, 폐식용유 등의 저급유지 활용 방안을 강구하고 있으며 자트로파와 같은 비식용 작물의 해외플랜테이션도 진행하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 커피찌거기에 남아 있는 오일을 속슬렛추출장치를 이용해 추출하고 전이에스테르화 반응을 수행하여 반응 특성과 커피오일 바이오디젤의 지방산 조성을 알아보고 바이오디젤 원료유로서의 사용가능성에 대해 알아보았다. 석유에테르를 용매로 속슬렛 추출장치를 이용해 추출시 원료대비 약 17%(w/w)의 오일을 추출할 수 있었다. 추출된 오일의 산가는 18.79mgKOH/g으로 매우 높아 직접 전이에스테르화 반응이 불가능하다. 고체 산 촉매 하에서 전처리 반응을 실시하여 유리지방산을 전환 제거한 후 염기촉매를 이용해 전이에스테르화 반응을 진행한 결과 약 80%의 바이오디젤(FAME) 함량을 얻을 수 있었다. 지방산 조성 분석 결과 리놀레익산(Linoleic acid, C18:2), 올레익산(Oleic acid, C18:1), 팔미틱산(Palmitic acid, C16:0)이 대부분을 차지하며 이 중에서도 리놀레익산이 44.17%로 가장 많은 함량을 보였다. 이는 커피찌꺼기 추출 오일이 바이오디젤 원료유로 활용 가능성을 나타내는 결과로, 색소성분 등의 불순물을 효율적으로 제거하여 증류정제 전단계에서의 바이오디젤 순도와 생산 수율을 증대시키기 위한 추가 연구가 필요한 것으로 판단된다.

This experimental study investigated the wake flow around an elastically supported circular cylinder. In this study, the Reynolds numbers are varied in the region of $1.4{\times}10^4{\leq}Re{\leq}3.2{\times}10^4$. Under these conditions, we have captured the process of the wake mechanism and the moving path of the vortex by measuring the velocity at each position in the wake around the cylinder. Further, these facts from the wind tunnel test are proved by a flow visualization test through a water channel. From the result, we have arrived at the following conclusions : i) The process (formation${\rightarrow}$growth${\rightarrow}$collapse) of vortex is observed in the wake around the cylinder, ii) The vortex efflux angle is approximately $16^{\circ}{\sim}17^{\circ}$ under the experimental conditions. These angles have no relationship with the velocity change and the existence of flow-induced vibrations of the cylinder, and iii) The moving path of the vortex center is obtained by spectrum analysis of the fluctuating velocity behind the cylinder. These are confirmed by conducting visualization tests.

Underground storage cavern is known as the most complicated underground project because of the complexity of construction schedule, tunnel size, and geological problems. In order to optimize the construction schedule of underground storage cavern, two up-to-date technologies were applied. The first technology was 3 dimensional visualization of complicated underground structures, and the second was 4 dimensional simulation considering construction resources, geological conditions and construction schedule. This application case shows that we can achieve optimized construction schedule in the ways to optimize the number of work teams, fleets, the sequence of tunnel excavation, the commencement time of excavation and the hauling route of materials and excavated rocks. 3 dimensional modeling can help designer being able to understand the status of complicated underground structures and to investigate the geological data in the exact 3 dimensional space. Moreover, using 4 dimensional simulation, designer is able to determine the bottle neck point which appear during hauling of excavated rocks and to investigate the daily fluctuation in cost.

The risk assessment model for dam and levee is applied to a river where two adjacent dams are located in the upstream of the watershed. "A" dam is proven to be safe with 200-year precipitation and unsafe with PMP condition, whereas "B" dam to be safe with 200-year precipitation and PMP condition. The computed risk considering the uncertainties of the runoff coefficient. initial water depth and relevant data of the dam and spillway turn out to be equivalent results in Monte-Carlo and AFOSM method. In levee risk model, this study addresses the uncertainty of water surface elevation by Manning's equation. Monte-Carlo simulation with the variations of Manning's roughness coefficient is calculated by assuming that it follows atriangular distribution. The model can be used for preparing flood risk maps, flood warning systems, and establishing nation's flood disaster protection plan.
