SWMM (Storm Water Management Model) has been widely used in the world as a typical model for flood runoff analysis of urban areas. However, the calibration of the model is difficult, which is an obstacle to easy application. The purpose of the study is to develop an automatic calibration module of the SWMM linked with SCE-UA (Shuffled Complex Evolution-University of Arizona) algorithm. Generally, various objective functions may produce different optimization results for an optimization problem. Thus, five single objective functions were applied and the most appropriate one was selected. In addition to the objective function, another objective function was used to reduce peak flow error in flood simulation. They form a multiple objective function, and the optimization problem was solved by determination of Pareto optima. The automatic calibration module was applied to the flood simulation on the catchment of the Guro 1 detention reservoir and pump station. The automatic calibration results by the multiple objective function were more excellent than the results by the single objective function for model assessment criteria including error of peak flow and ratio of volume between observed and calculated flow. Also, the verification results of the model calibrated by the multiple objective function were reliable. The program could be used in various flood runoff analysis in urban areas.

In this study, a distributed rainfall-runoff model, K-DRUM, based on physical kinematic wave was developed to simulate temporal and spatial distribution of flood discharge considering grid rainfall and grid based GIS hydrological parameters. The developed model can simulate temporal and spatial distribution of surface flow and sub-surface flow during flood period, and input parameters of ASCII format as pre-process can be extracted using ArcView. Output results of ASCII format as post-process can be created to express distribution of discharge in the watershed using GIS and express discharge as animation using TecPlot. an auto calibration method for initial soil moisture conditions that have an effect on discharge in the physics based K-DRUM was additionally developed. The baseflow for Namgang Dam Watershed was analysed to review the applicability of the developed auto calibration method. The accuracy of discharge analysis for application of the method was evaluated using RMSE and NRMSE. Problems in running time and inaccuracy setting using the existing trial and error method were solved by applying an auto calibration method in setting initial soil moisture conditions of K-DRUM.

A new deformation resistance model for hot steel strip rolling process was formulated to improve the accuracy of roll force estimation. To improve the existing deformation resistance model more precisely, a modification function was introduced in this study. For the modification function, several factors considering material and operational conditions have been investigated and the optimal modification function was determined under the principle of minimum variability. The newly formulated modification function was applied to the deformation resistance model for ultra-low carbon steel and showed improved accuracy with about 30% decrease in terms of standard deviation of predicted roll force values against measured ones.

This study aims to evaluate applicability of both online and offline parameter calibration techniques on rainfall-runoff modeling using a conceptual lumped hydrologic model. To achieve the goal, the storage function model was selected and then two different automatic calibration techniques: SCE-UA (offline method) and particle filter (online method) were applied to calibrate the optimal parameter sets for 9 rainfall events in the Cheoncheon catchment, upper area of the Yongdam multi-purpose dam. In order to assess reproducibility of hydrographs from the parameter sets of both techniques, the observed discharge of each event was divided into low flow (below average flow) and high flow (over average flow). The results show that the particle filter method, updating the parameters in real-time, provides more stable reproducibility than the SCE-UA method regardless of low and high flow. The optimal parameters estimated by SCE-UA are very sensitive to the selected objective functions used in this study: RMSE and HMLE. In particular, the parameter sets from RMSE and HMLE demonstrate superior goodness-of-fit values for high flow and low flow periods, respectively.

This paper deals with an estimation problem of the gain and phase imbalances between the in-phase and quadrature components in the quadrature receivers which are widely used in wireless communications. It is shown that the estimates derived from the suggested auto-calibration algorithm is asymptotically minimum-variance unbiased as a function of the sampling time. In order to show this characteristic, the probability density functions of the estimates for the gain and phase imbalances are derived first. Then the mean and variance functions are investigated analytically or numerically based on the density functions.

Ionospheric time delay is one of the main error source for single-frequency DGPS applications, including time transfer and Wide Area Differential GPS (WADGPS). Grid-based algorithm was already developed for WADGPS but that algorithm is not applicable to geomagnetic storm condition in accuracy and management. In geomagnetic storm condition, the spatial distribution of vertical ionospheric delay is noisy and therefore the accuracy of modeling become low in grid-based algorithm. For better accuracy, function based algorithm can be used but the continuity of correction message is not guranteed. In this paper, we propose the ionospheric model using wavelet based algorithm. This algorithm shows better accuracy with the same number of correction message than the existing spherical harmonics algorithm and guarantees the continuity of correction messages when the number of message is expanded for geomagnetic storm condition.

Purpose : A new inhomogeneity correction method based on two-point Dixon sequence is proposed to obtain water and fat images at 0.35T, low field magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system. Materials and Methods : Joint phase-magnitude density function (JPMF) is obtained from the in-phase and out-of-phase images by the two-point Dixon method. The range of the water signal is adjusted from the JPMF, and 3D inhomogeneity map is obtained from the phase of corresponding water volume. The 3D inhomogeneity map is used to correct the inhomogeneity field iteratively. Results : The proposed water-fat imaging method was successfully applied to various organs. The proposed 3D inhomogeneity correction algorithm provides good performances in overall multi-slice images. Conclusion : The proposed water-fat separation method using JPMF is robust to field inhomogeneity. Three dimensional inhomogeneity map and the iterative inhomogeneity correction algorithm improve water and fat imaging substantially.

TDR 함수량계는 전자기파를 이용하여 흙의 밀도와 함수비를 비파괴적으로 신속하게 평가하는 유망한 기술이다. TDR 시험법은 10~20cm 길이의 2~3개의 탐침을 지중에 관입시킨 후 전자기파의 이동시간을 측정하여 유전상수($K_a$)를 산정한다. 제안식을 이용하여 유전상수로부터 체적함수비(${\theta}$)의 산정이 가능하므로, 이 시험법은 흙의 함수비를 측정할 수 있는 비파괴시험 장치로 개발되어 활용되고 있다. 또한, 흙의 종류에 따른 보정상수가 파악되어 있는 경우에는 현장 밀도와 현장 함수비를 동시에 평가할 수 있으므로, TDR 함수량계를 이용하여 성토지만비나 노상토에 대한 신속하고 간편한 다짐관리가 기능하다.

현재 국내 주요 하천의 홍수예경보시스템 운영과 다목적댐의 홍수조절관리를 위하여 수문학적 모형의 하나인 저류함수모형(storage function model)을 사용하고 있다. 저류함수모형은 산지가 많은 유역에 적합하도록 개발된 모형으로, 계산절차가 간편하고 홍수유출의 비선형성을 고려할 수 있는 방법이므로 선형모형보다 합리적이라고 알려져 있다. 그러나 실제 홍수사상에 저류함수모형을 적용하기 위해서는 적절한 매개변수의 적용이 필요하다. 현재까지 저류함수모형의 매개변수를 보정하기 위한 연구가 많이 되었지만, 실질적으로 보정된 매개변수를 실제 홍수사상에 적용함에 있어서는 많은 어려움이 존재한다. 따라서 이러한 문제점을 해결하고자 본 연구에서는 저류함수 모형 중 유역유출 매개변수를 첨두유량에 대한 상대민감도분석을 통하여 매개변수의 경계조건을 설정하고, 이 경계조건을 바탕으로 최적화기법(optimization technique)을 사용하여 과거 홍수사상에 대하여 보정을 수행하였다. 그리고 보정된 매개변수를 모의 홍수사상에 적용하기 위한 최적매개변수(optimal parameter) 결정을 위한 방법들을 제시 및 적용하여 비교 분석하였다.
