Tooth wear is gradually increasing with increasing life expectancy. In particular, it is important to establish a treatment plan in the early stages so that it does not proceed to moderate or severe wear stages. It is essential to diagnose tooth wear accurately in order to plan a treatment for it. There are many risk factors including age, diet, and drugs which affects tooth wear. For the diagnosis of a tooth wear, appropriate index and evaluation method should be used. There were various tooth wear indices such as TWI, Lussi index, BEWE, and TWES. The evaluation method includes clinical examination, dental cast examination and clinical photographs. Recently, a 3D scanner is being used to assess tooth wear. The risk factors, tooth wear evaluation system, the methods of measuring tooth wear, and related literature were reviewed. The strengths and weaknesses of each index and evaluation methods were compared to derive a proper way to diagnose tooth wear.

Reinforced concrete bridge decks are the first to be damaged by vehicle loads and rain infiltration. Concrete deterioration primarily occurs owing to the corrosion of rebars and other metal components by chlorides used for snow and ice melting. The structural condition and concrete deterioration of the bridge decks within the pavement were evaluated using ground-penetrating radar (GPR) survey data. To evaluate concrete deterioration in bridges, it is necessary to develop GPR data analysis techniques to accurately identify deteriorated locations and rebar positions. GPR exploration involves the acquisition of reflection and diffraction wave signals due to differences in radar wave propagation velocity in geotechnical media. Therefore, a full-waveform inversion (FWI) method was developed to evaluate the deterioration of reinforced concrete bridge decks by estimating the radar wave propagation velocity in geotechnical media using GPR data. Numerical experiments using a GPR velocity model confirmed the deterioration phenomena of bridge decks, such as concrete delamination and rebar corrosion, verifying the applicability of the developed technology. Moreover, using the synthetic GPR data, FWI facilitates the determination of rebar positions and concrete deterioration locations using inverted velocity images.

지역규모의 기후변화 모의결과를 이용하여 금강유역 용담댐의 홍수기 치수안전도에 대한 민감도분석을 수행하였다. 기후변화 모의에 사용된 SNURCM(Seoul National University Regional Climate Model)은 미국 National Center for Atmospheric Research의 Community Climate System Model의 전지구모형을 기반으로 spectral nudging 기법을 사용한 공간해상도 30 km, 연직 21층의 지역기후모형이다. 기후변화 시나리오로는 SRES 'B1'이 사용되었으며 과거 control run에 대한 기후모의 정확도 분석을 통하여 SNURCM 기상자료를 관측치와 비교한 결과 면적강우량을 다소 과소추정하였고 이점을 감안하여 SNURCM의 일 모의결과에 보정 계수를 적용하였다. 하천유출량은 SSARR 모형을 이용하여 SNURCM 모의가 수행된 전체기간을 $1980{\sim}1999$년과 $2000{\sim}2019$년으로 20년씩 나누어 용담댐 일 유입량을 산정하여 통계분석을 실시하였고 과거와 미래 20년 동안을 비교하여 본 결과 (1) 유량의 평균보다는 분산이 미래 20년 동안 증가하여 가뭄과 홍수에 대한 위험도가 증가함을 알 수 있었고, (2) 특히 연최대유량 또한 미래 20년 동안 상당히 증가하여 홍수기 치수대책이 더욱 중요해질 것으로 판단되었다. 마지막으로 용담댐 운영은 범용 시스템분석 도구인 STELLA(System Thinking Experimental Learning Laboratory with Animation) 상에서 GUI로 구현하여 유입량 변화에 따른 용담댐 치수안전도 변화를 모의해 보았다. 용담댐의 홍수기 운영은 저수지 수위가 제한수위를 초과하기 시작하면 Rigid ROM 발효하여 방류량을 결정하도록 구성하였고, 무효방류(spill)가 일어나는 현상을 실패로 가정하여 이에 대한 신뢰도(reliability), 회복도(resiliency), 그리고 심도(vulnerability)를 치수안전도 지표로 계산하였다. 전체기간을 1980년${\sim}$1999년, 2000년${\sim}$2019년, 2000년${\sim}$2009년, 그리고 2010년${\sim}$2019년까지 총 4구간으로 나누어 결과를 도출하였으며 예상한 바와 같이 후반기 20년 동안에 세 가지 지표가 취약해 지는 것을 확인할 수 있었고, 특히 2000년부터 2009년까지 10년 동안에는 더욱 취약해짐을 확인할 수 있었다.

In this study, the results of hybridization were evaluated by analyzing the biomarkers of Haliotis discus hannai and hybrid abalone (H. madaka♀^*H. discus discus♂) in marine net cage. The survival rate was similar both experimental groups, but the growth (shell length) was about 10% faster in hybrid abalone. The deformity of respiratory pore in the hybrid abalone was about 6% lower than H. discus hannai, and the shell depression was about 15% lower in the hybrid abalone. In the biochemical composition, crude protein was about 3.1% higher in hybrid abalone, and showed similar values except for the crude protein. In the histological structure of the hepatopancreas, which performs the functions of digestion, absorption and detoxification of abalone, good results were obtained in the hybrid abalone. On these results, it is judged that the hybrid abalone will have high aquaculture productivity in the aquaculture environment.

Physically-based resampling scheme for roughness coefficient of surface runoff considering the spatial landuse distribution was suggested for the purpose of effective operational application of recent grid-based distributed rainfall runoff model. Generally grid scale(mother scale) of hydrologic modeling can be greater than the scale (child scale) of original GIS thematic digital map when the objective basin is wide or topographically simple, so the modeler uses large grid scale. The resampled roughness coefficient was estimated and compared using 3 different schemes of Predominant, Composite and Mosaic approaches and total runoff volume and peak streamflow were computed through distributed rainfall-runoff model. For quantitative assessment of biases between computational simulation and observation, runoff responses for the roughness estimated using the 3 different schemes were evaluated using MAPE(Mean Areal Percentage Error), RMSE(Root-Mean Squared Error), and COE(Coefficient of Efficiency). As a result, in the case of 500m scale Mosaic resampling for the natural and urban basin, the distribution of surface runoff roughness coefficient shows biggest difference from that of original scale but surface runoff simulation shows smallest, especially in peakflow rather than total runoff volume.

현업에서 사용하는 유출해석 기본이론은 연속방정식과 운동방정식으로서 운동파가정(kinematic wave analogy)을 기반으로 한 집중수문모형(lumped hydrologic model)에 의하여 수행되고 있지만 집중형 모형은 한 매개변수에 여러 가지의 물리적 과정을 개념화하여 담고 있기 때문에 유출과정에 대한 섬세한 모형화의 제약으로 인하여 유역고유의 매개변수값을 찾기가 쉽지 않은 단점을 가지고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 물리적 기반의 2차원 분포형 강우-유출모형을 개발하고자 하며 이는 완전분포형 수문동역학적 모형으로 지표흐름과 침투과정, 기저유출과 관련된 과정을 모의한다. 본 모형은 공간적으로 변화하는 침투량과 소규모 및 대규모의 지형학적 특성을 사용하는 St. Venant 방정식을 사용하고 개발될 모형은 모든 스케일에서의 수심과 유량을 계산할 수 있으며 Richard 방정식(또는 선택적으로 Green-Ampt 방정식 채택)을 이용하여 정밀한 침투량 모의가 가능하다. 또한 레이다등의 고해상도 강우관측자료를 지점자료와 합성하여 입력자료로 사용할 수 있도록하고자 하며 강우-유출모형에 다목적댐이나 보등에서의 유량조절효과를 반영하고, 다목적댐군에서의 연계운영모의가 가능케 함으로서 현업의 운영자들이 실무에서 실질적으로 활용할 수 있는 형태의 모형을 개발하고자 한다. 이는 국내에서의 2차원 분포형 강우-유출모형을 자체 개발함으로서 연구역량을 제고하고, 국내 현업기관에서의 분포형 모형기반의 홍수모니터링 및 전망시스템의 확산에 기여할 것으로 예상된다.

최근 우리나라는 과거에 비해 기후변화 등의 사유로 가뭄과 홍수가 증가하는 추세에 있으며, '90년대에 들어서는 대규모의 홍수와 극심한 가뭄이 거의 매년 되풀이 되고 있어 지역간 물수급·공급의 불균형이 심각하여 국민이 활용가능한 수자원확보량과 공급가능량이 많은 차이를 보이고 있다. 기후패턴 변화 및 지속적인 용수수요 증가로 인해 가뭄 발생 위험이 커지고 있으나, 신규 수자원개발은 지역갈등 유발 등 사회적 여건에 따라 불가하므로, 기존댐을 평가하고 효율적으로 활용한다는 것은 기존 수자원을 최대한 활용하여 그 가치를 재조명하고 감춰져 있는 수자원을 다시 찾아내어 활용한다는 점에서 큰 의미가 있다. 허나, 댐 용수공급 안정성을 재평가하기 위한 그간 수많은 노력이 이루어지고 있으나, 용수공급 안정성(이수안전도) 기준은 댐 건설 당시 시대적 여건 등에 따라 다르게 적용되어 표준화된 기준이 전무한 실정이다. 이에 따라 국민의 물이용 보장 등 수요자 입장을 고려한 댐별 표준화된 이수안전도 기준 마련이 시급하다고 판단되며, 본 과업을 통해 댐마다 달리 적용된 이수 안전도를 개선하여 형평성을 고려한 국민 물이용 보장 등을 구현할 수 있는 댐 이수안전도 표준화 및 개선방안을 도출하고자 한다. 표준화된 기준을 통하여 신규댐 설계, 기존댐 평가, 갈수 대책용량 결정 등과 관련하여 용수공급 능력 평가 시 혼란을 사전에 예방하고, 본 연구에서는 수자원 시스템의 용수공급 안정성(이수안전도)을 평가하고 표준화 방안을 마련하기 위한 정량적이고 객관적인 지표를 개발하였고 이를 댐설계 기준 등 국가계획에 반영하여 지침 화할 수 있는 방안을 연구하였다.

Concentration of antibiotics including a tetracycline group (TCs) of tetracycline (TC), chlortetracycline (CTC), and oxytetracycline (OTC), a sulfonamide group (SAs) of sulfamethoxazole (SMX), sulfathiazole (STZ), and sulfamethazine (SMT), an ionophore group (IPs) of lasalocid (LSL), monensin (MNS), and salinomycin (SLM), and a macrolide group (MLs) of tylosin (TYL) was determined from samples collected from the agricultural soil, stream water, and sediment. For the agricultural soil samples, the concentration of TCs had the highest value among all tested antibiotic's groups due to its high accumulation rate on the surface soils. The lower concentrations of SAs in the agricultural soils may be resulted from its lower usage and lower distribution coefficient (Kd) compared to TCs. The concentration of TCs in stream water was significantly increased through June to September. It would be likely due to soil loss during an intensive rainfall event and a reduction of water level after the monsoon season. A significant amount of TCs in the sediment was also detected due to its accumulation from runoff, which occurred by complexation of divalent cations, ion exchange, and hydrogen bonding among humic acid molecules. To ensure environmental or human safety, continuous monitoring of antibiotics residues in surrounding ecosystems and systematic approach to the occurrence mechanism of antibiotic resistant bacteria are required.

In electric power transmission tower structures on offshore, implementation of life management using the event data of regular safety inspections for structural and material damages is strongly recommended. In this study, six tower structures in Sihwa Lake around Yeoungheung island were target bodies for the safety inspections. safety inspections for deterioration about each of six towers were performed about three items for steel member, five items for concrete foundation, and four items for steel-pipe pile in seawater and seawater itself. Safety inspections for steel members included the visual observations of surface appearances, the measurements of member thicknesses, and the checks of painting states. Also safety inspections for concrete foundations comprised the estimation of crack features, the evaluation of non-destructive compression strengths, and the measurements of neutralization depths and chlorides contents. For steel-pipe piles in seawater the inspections comprised the surveys of corrosion states in accordance with potential levels tests and anode tests, the analyses of photos taken on surfaces of the piles as well as the evaluation of seawater quality. A set of deterioration inspections was performed at the same positions around october of each year for three consecutive years. As a result in this study, Newly developed deterioration indexes have been applied profitably to maintain structural safety for electric power transmission towers by utilizing these event data systematically.

This study examined the epiphytes using stable isotopes. Separated epiphytes should represent the water quality. In study areas, where agricultural paddies were prevailing, biomass of epiphytes can increase nitrogen isotopes(${\delta}^{15}N$) and as a result decrease in carbon isotopes(${\delta}^{13}C$). Naerin stream and Inbuk upper areas showed higher nitrogen isotopes(${\delta}^{15}N$) than in Hangye and Buk stream. Also, stable carbon isotopes(${\delta}^{13}C$) in Naerin stream and Inbuk streams tended to increase than in Hangye and Buk stream. This can indicate the epiphytes can be a good indicator for water quality pollution.
