Sinduri beach is a typical sedimentary landform that forms sand dunes due to the influence of the northwest wind in winter. Due to the its large scale and well-developed nature, it has been recognized for conservation value and is currently designated as Natural Monument No. 431, and continuous monitoring is required in terms of the preservation of topographical values. In this study, aerial images, drone images, and drone-based LiDAR data during 36 years were used for long-term topographical change observation of the Sinduri coastal sand dunes located in Taean-gun, Chungcheongnam-do. To implement this, the amount of change in elevation and volume for each period was calculated by applying the difference of Digital Elevation Model (DEM) based on raster calculation using the numerical elevation model generated from the raw data. Also, the amount of change in volume based on probability was calculated using the error propagation law for the intrinsic error of each data source. As a result, it can be seen that from 1986 to 2022, deposition of 35,119 m³ occurred in region of interest A (area: 17,960 m²) and 54,954 m³ of deposition occurred in region of interest B (area: 17,686 m²).

Low flow affects various fields such as river water supply management and planning, and irrigation water. A sufficient period of flow data is required to calculate the Flow Duration Curve. However, in order to calculate the Flow Duration Curve, it is essential to secure flow data for more than 30 years. However, in the case of rivers below the national river unit, there is no long-term flow data or there are observed data missing for a certain period in the middle, so there is a limit to calculating the Flow Duration Curve for each river. In the past, statistical-based methods such as Multiple Regression Analysis and ARIMA models were used to predict sulfur in the unmeasured watershed, but recently, the demand for machine learning and deep learning models is increasing. Therefore, in this study, we present the DNN technique, which is a machine learning technique that fits the latest paradigm. The DNN technique is a method that compensates for the shortcomings of the ANN technique, such as difficult to find optimal parameter values in the learning process and slow learning time. Therefore, in this study, the Flow Duration Curve applicable to the unmeasured watershed is calculated using the DNN model. First, the factors affecting the Flow Duration Curve were collected and statistically significant variables were selected through multicollinearity analysis between the factors, and input data were built into the machine learning model. The effectiveness of machine learning techniques was reviewed through statistical verification.

In this study, the island's land-use and land-cover change (LULCC) is analyzed in South Korea using remotely sensed land cover data(Globeland 30) acquired from 2000 to 2020 to meet the requirement of providing practical information for forest management. Analysis of LULCC between the 2000 and 2020 images revealed that changes to agricultural land were the most common type of change (7.6% of pixels), followed by changes to the forest (5.7%). The islands forests maintain 157,246 ha (42.2% of the total island area). Land cover types that changed to the forest from grasslands were 262 islands, while reverse cases have occurred on 421 islands. These 683 islands have a possibility of transition and disturbance. The artificial land class was newly calculated in 22 islands. The forests, which account for 42.2% of the 22 island area, turned into grassland, and 27.8% of agricultural land and grassland turned into forests. The development of artificial land often affects developed areas and surrounding areas, resulting in deforestation, management of agriculture, and landscaping. This study can provide insights concerning the fundamental data for assessing ecological functions and constructing forest management plans in islands ecosystems.

Meteorological drought originates from a precipitation deficiency and propagates to agricultural and hydrological droughts through the hydrological cycle. Comparing with the meteorological drought, agricultural and hydrological droughts have more direct impacts on human society. Thus, understanding how meteorological drought evolves to agricultural and hydrological droughts is necessary for efficient drought preparedness and response. In this study, meteorological and hydrological droughts were defined based on the observed precipitation and the synthesized streamflow by the land surface model. The Bayesian network model was applied for probabilistic analysis of the propagation relationship between meteorological and hydrological droughts. The copula function was used to estimate the joint probability in the Bayesian network. The results indicated that the propagation probabilities from the moderate and extreme meteorological droughts were ranged from 0.41 to 0.63 and from 0.83 to 0.98, respectively. In addition, the propagation probabilities were highest in autumn (0.71 ~ 0.89) and lowest in winter (0.41 ~ 0.62). The propagation probability increases as the meteorological drought evolved from summer to autumn, and the severe hydrological drought could be prevented by appropriate mitigation during that time.

The drought resulting from insufficient rainfall compared to the amount in an ordinary year can significantly impact a broad area at the same time. Another feature of this disaster is hard to recognize its onset and disappearance. Therefore, a reliable and fast way of predicting both the suffering area and the amount of water shortage from the upcoming drought is a key issue to develop a countermeasure of the disaster. However, the available drought scenarios are about 50 events that have been observed in the past. Due to the limited number of events, it is difficult to predict the water shortage in a case where the pattern of a natural disaster is different from the one in the past. To overcome the limitation, in this study, we applied the four RCP climate change scenarios to the water balance model and the annual amount of water shortage from 360 drought events was estimated. In the following chapter, the deep neural network model was trained with the SPEI values from the RCP scenarios and the amount of water shortage as the input and output, respectively. The trained model in each sub-basin enables us to easily and reliably predict the water shortage with the SPEI values in the past and the predicted meteorological conditions in the upcoming season. It can be helpful for decision-makers to respond to future droughts before their onset.

The purpose of this research is to propose the measurement of improving DEM by using the water surface range of SAR image analysis for river corridors and to suggest the construction of satellite-based 3D river spatial information of inaccessible regions such as North Korea. For this research, it has been progressed from the accessible area, watershed of Namgang river, the branch of Nakdonggang river. The satellite image was collected from SAR satellite image data for a year in 2021 which was provided by ESA from Sentinel-1A/B data and extracted from the seasonal water surface area. Ground gauge water level was collected from hourly intervals data by WAMIS. The DEM was improved by analysis of the river altitude of water surface area change by the combination of the ground water level of minimum to maximum water surface area data extracted from SAR image analysis. After the improvement of DEM, the altitude of the river varied that it is defined to comprise more natural form of river DEM than the existing DEM. The correction validation of improvement DEM was necessary in field survey elevation data; however, the correction validation was not progressed due to the absence of the data. Although, the purpose of this research is to provide the improvement of DEM by using the analyzed water surface by existing DEM data and SAR image analysis. After the progression of additional correction validation research, we would plan to examine the application in other places and to progress the additional methodological research to apply in inaccessible and unmeasured area including the North Korea.

Recently, satellites equipped with high-performance electronics have required higher power consumption because of the advancement of satellite missions. For this reason, the size of the solar panel is gradually increasing to meet the required power budget. Increasing the size and weight of the solar panel is one of the factors that induce the elastic vibration of the flexible solar panel during the highly agile maneuvering of the satellite or the mode of vibration coupling to the satellite or the mode of vibration coupling to the micro-jitter from the on-board appendages. Previously, an additional damper system was applied to reduce the elastic vibration of the solar panel, but the increase in size and mass of system was inevitable. In this study, to overcome the abovementioned limitations, we proposed a high -damping yoke structure consisting of a superplastic SMA(Shape Memory Alloy) laminating a thin FR4 layer with viscoelastic tape on both sides. Therefore, this advantage contributes to system simplicity by reducing vibrations with small volume and mass without additional system. The effectiveness of the proposed superelastic SMA multilayer solar panel yoke was validated through free vibration testing and temperature testing using a solar panel dummy.

The occurrence of cavitation on the propeller is directly linked to the naval ship's survivability, and it is necessary to design a propeller shape that delays the cavitation inception. However, the propeller cavitation can occur under various operating conditions, thus it is important to identify whether the propeller cavitation exists during operation as well as in the design phase. To this end, it is necessary to use noise or vibration signals on board to monitor the cavitation inception. In this study, a hydrophone and an accelerometer were installed on the ship hull right above the propeller to compare the performance of analyzing cavitation inception between acoustic and vibration signals. Also, a high speed camera was used to visually observe the occurrence of cavitation through an observation window. The measured results showed that the spectral shapes between acoustic and vibration signals were different, but the level increases at each frequency band and the overall level of the frequency band from 1 kHz to 10 kHz showed a similar tendency. The Detection of Envelope Modulation On Noise (DEMON) analysis also showed similar results for both acoustic and vibration signals, confirming that both hydrophones and accelerometers can be utilized in the analysis of cavitation inception.

최근 하천의 유사 중 소류사량을 계측하기 위해 사용된 기존의 물리적 소류사 샘플러를 이용한 직접계측방법은 홍수 시에 깊은 수위와 빠른 유속, 계측 절차상의 위험성 때문에 현장관측이 매우 어려운 한계를 극복하기 위해 현업에서는 소류사량을 간접적으로 추정하는 이론식에 의한 방법이 광범위하게 활용되고 있으나 이 방법 또한 추정이론식의 적용지역, 적용방법에 따라 결과가 수십배 이상 큰 차이를 나타나 실제 활용성에 대한 문제점이 있다. 이러한 기존의 소류사량 측정 방법의 문제점을 보완하기 위해 소류사량을 간접계측하는 방법이 활발히 제안되고 있다. 대표적인 방법으로 하상 이동 시 소류사의 충돌음을 음향센서로 계측하여 신호처리를 통해 소류사량을 추정하는 계측기기인 하이드로폰이 있다. 그러나 국외의 소류사량 간접계측 장치는 소류사량의 운송량이 많을 경우 음향신호 중접으로 인해 펄스 수의 감소, 감지 가능한 입경크기의 제한 등의 문제가 있다. 또한 국내의 백무평(2018)이 제안한 소류사 분석 방법인 대역통과방법(B-P Method)는 소류사량 추정에 있어서 기존의 방법과는 달리 주파수 특성을 반영하여 이전 연구들에 비하여 펄스 검출률을 향상시겼지만 이 방법은 극히 낮은 저유속과 작은 입경이라는 실험조건에서 이루어졌다는 제한사항이 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 다양한 입경과 고유속에 대하여 소류사량을 정량화할 수 있는 방법을 제시하기 위해 소류사 입경이 하이드로폰에 충돌할 때 발생하는 단독입자의 충돌음을 계측하기 위한 실외 수로실험장치를 구축하여 계측을 수행하였다. 실험은 현장에서 대표 시료로 분류된 몇 가지 입경에 대해서 유량 변화에 따른 충돌음향과 소류사량 그리고 소류사 입경크기에 따른 하이드로폰에서 인지되는 음향 특성을 계측 및 분석하였다. 연구결과 입경 크기 및 수리조건 변화에 따른 하이드로폰의 충돌음향 특성을 파악하여 단일 입경별 소류사량 추정관계식을 산출하였다. 또한 산출된 추정 관계식의 특성치와 공급 소류사량 간의 관계를 유도해 보았다. 향후 혼합입경에 대한 실험과 추정 관계식 신뢰성 검토 후 추가적으로 다양한 실험조건을 고려하여 실제 하천에 운송되는 소류사량과의 교정관계 확립을 진행한다면 국내 소류사량 데이터 수집을 위한 현장 설치까지 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

영산강 유역은 상류 급경사 지역에 있는 유역 내 댐들의 홍수조절용량과 평야지역에 있는 하굿둑의 홍수배제능력이 부족하여 나주시 등 하류부에 홍수피해가 빈번하였다. 영산강에서 4대강 사업의 주요내용은 하도내 퇴적토준설과 홍수조절지 건설, 농업용저수지 증고를 통한 홍수방어능력 증대, 다기능 보설치를 통한 용수확보, 하구지역 홍수배제능력 증대 등이었다. 동 사업에서 본류 하천의 홍수위 저감과 내수배제 개선을 위해 담양댐 하류부터 영암천 합류점까지 하도를 준설하고, 담양과 화순홍수조절지, 나주 강변저류지, 승촌보와 죽산보를 건설하고, 하굿둑 배수능력 증대와 농업용 댐 및 저수지들을 증고를 수행하였다. 4대강 사업이 준공된 2012년 이후로 2014년부터 5년간 가뭄이 지속되었고 큰 홍수가 없다가 2020년 8월에 장기간의 집중호우로 영산강 중상류인 광주시와 영산강 하류지역에서 큰 수해가 발생하였다. 따라서 시설물 운영 실적에 근거한 홍수저감 효과의 기술적 검토를 수행하였다. 사업전·후 수문관측자료와 하천시설 운영 실적에 근거한 홍수저감 효과를 분석하기 위해 사업전·후 유사 규모의 강우 발생 시 수위표 지점별로 계측된 첨두 수위 및 유량자료를 비교하여 홍수저감 효과를 분석하였다. 사업전·후 유사 규모 강우를 선정하기 위해 발생된 강우 사상 중 호우특보 발령 기준이상의 강우 사상에 대하여 총 강우량 및 강우의 지속시간, 시간 분포를 비교하여 유사 규모의 호우를 선정하였다. 사업전·후 유사 규모의 호우 사상 발생 시 계측된 홍수위와 홍수량 비교 결과 영산강 중·상류부와 중·하류부 수위표 지점(극락교,승용교,나주대교)에서 사업 시행 후 사업 전보다 첨두 수위가 1.36~2.81m 감소한 것으로 검토되었다. 이는 여러 가지 사업들의 복합적인 결과로 영산강유역의 홍수관리여건이 개선된 것으로 판단된다. 한편 2020년 8월7일~8일 발생한 호우에 의해 영산강 본류의 중·상류부와 중·하류부의 주요 수위표 지점에서는 200년빈도 계획홍수위를 초과한 홍수가 발생하였다. 상시개방과 철거로 처리방안이 결정된 승촌보와 죽산보의 여건을 반영하여 2개보 유무에 따른 홍수위 검토를 실시하였다. 홍수위 비교 결과보가 없을 경우 영산강 중·상류부(극락교,승용교)와 중·하류부(나주대교,영산교) 수위표 지점에서 홍수위가 0.01~0.07m 감소되는 것으로 검토되어 홍수시 보의 영향은 비교적 작은 것으로 나타났다. 홍수시 상류댐과 저수지, 홍수조절지, 하굿둑, 하천의 연계운영에 대해서는 추가연구가 필요하다.
