This study aims at the analysis using the Resistivity Estimation Model (REM) to examine the effect of specimen size on the measurement of electrical resistivity. In the experiment, specimens of concrete were fabricated and the apparent resistivity was measured for each electrode interval. The apparent resistivity measured was found to be distorted in the apparent resistivity as the specimen size became smaller and closer to the outside (edge). As a result of comparing the experimental and analysis values, it is expected that REM can be used to examine the effect of the size of the specimen.

We outline a process for estimating Cole-Cole parameters from time-domain induced polarization (IP) data. The IP transients are all inverted to 2D Cole-Cole earth models that include resistivity, chargeability, relaxation time, and the frequency exponent. Our inversion algorithm consists of two stages. We first convert the measured voltage decay curves into time series of current-on time apparent resistivity to circumvent the negative chargeability problem. As a first step, a 4D inversion recovers the resistivity model at each time channel that increases monotonically with time. The desired intrinsic Cole-Cole parameters are then recovered by inverting the resistivity time series of each inversion block. In the second step, the Cole-Cole parameters can be estimated readily by setting the initial model close to the true value through a grid search method. Finally, through inversion procedures applied to synthetic data sets, we demonstrate that our algorithm can image the Cole-Cole earth models effectively.

Clay mineral content of weathered zone is a key parameter for landslide studies. Electrical resistivity tomography is usually performed to delineate the geometry of complex landslides and to identify the sliding surface. In clay-bearing weathered zone, parallel resistivity Archie equation is employed to investigate the effect of conductivity added (resistivity reduced) by clay minerals of kaolinite and montmorillonite, which is dependent on their specific surface area and cation exchange capacities (CEC). A decrease of overall resistivity and apparent formation factor is observed with increasing pore-water resistivity, significantly in montmorillonite. Formation factor is found decreased with increasing porosity and decreasing cementation factor. Parallel Archie equation was applied to the electrical resistivity data from the test area (Sinjindo-ri, Taean-gun, Chungcheongnam-do, Korea) which experienced land creeping in the year of 2014. A panel test with varying clay-mineral contents provides the best fit section when the theoretical section constructed with the assumed contents approaches the field section, from which the clay-mineral content of the weathered zone is estimated to be approximately 10%. Resistivity interpretation schemes including the clay mineral contents for land creeping studies explored in this paper can be challenged more when porosity, saturation, and pore-water resistivity are provided and they are included in the numerical resistivity modeling.

자연하천에서 식생의 성장은 유속 및 수위 변화에 중요한 영향을 미치며, 따라서 식생으로 인한 흐름저항은 흐름과 유사이송 모델링을 위한 중요 매개 변수가 된다. 즉, 수치 모델을 활용함에 있어 식생의 흐름 저항을 정확하게 추정하는 것이 매우 중요하며, 보다 정확한 추정을 위해 실험 혹은 현장 데이터를 활용한 보정과정이 필수적으로 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 식생 패치를 포함한 인공 수로의 흐름 모의를 위해 실규모 실험 수로에서 측정된 유속 및 수위 데이터를 활용하여 모델보정을 수행하고자 한다. 이를 위해 공간 분포 별로 각기 다른 흐름 저항식의 적용이 가능하며, 식생 저항 공식을 포함하고 있는 Delft3D 모델을 활용하였다. 또한 실규모 수로에서의 유속 및 수위 데이터 수집을 위해 한국건설기술연구원 하천연구센터에서 실험을 수행하였다. 실험 구간의 길이는 약 120 m이고 하폭은 11 m이며, 국내 하천에서 보이는 식생패치의 유사한 형태를 재현하기 위해 하천 내 가장 많이 활착되어있는 버드나무와 유사한 형태의 인공식생을 제작하였다. 인공 식생은 지그재그로 배치되었으며, 식생의 전체 높이는 1.1 m이고, 각 패치 당 23그루의 인공 식생이 총 8개 패치에 식재되었다. 모의 조건은 상류단 유입 유량 2.805 ㎥/s, 하류단수위 98.764 m의 정류 조건을 적용하였다. 또한 식생 패치 구간에서의 흐름 저항 추정을 위해 Delft3D 모델 내에서 선택가능 한 Baptist의 비침수(Non-submerged)식을 적용하였으며, 항력계수 결정을 위해 1과 1.5를 적용하여 측정 수위와 비교하였다. Delft3D의 흐름 모의 결과, 항력계수 1.5를 적용했을 때, 측정 수위와 거의 일치하는 것으로 나타났으며, 항력계수 1.0을 적용했을 경우, 측정 수위에 비해 다소 낮게 모의되는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 항력계수 1.5인 경우 식생 패치 구간에서 평균 0.65 m/s의 유속이 발생하였다.

Petrophysical parameters such as porosity and fluid saturation which provide useful information for reservoir characterization could be estimated by rock physics model (RPM) using seismic velocity and resistivity. Therefore, accurate P-wave velocity and resistivity information have to be obtained for successful estimation of the petrophysical parameters. Compared with the individual inversion of electromagnetic (EM) or seismic data, the joint inversion using both EM and seismic data together can reduce the uncertainty and gives the opportunity to use the advantages of each data. Thus, more reliable petrophysical properties could be estimated through the joint inversion. In this paper, for the successful estimation of petrophysical parameters, we proposed an effective method which applies a grid-search method to find the porosity and fluid saturation. The relations of porosity and fluid saturation with P-wave velocity and resistivity were expressed by using RPM and the improved resistivity distribution used to this study was obtained by joint inversion of seismic and EM data. When the proposed method was applied to the synthetic data which were simulated for subsea reservoir exploration, reliable petrophysical parameters were obtained. The results indicate that the proposed method can be applied for detecting a reservoir and calculating the accurate oil and gas reserves.

A kernel function of apparent earth resistivity can be estimated using the apparent earth resistivity measured with Wenner's 4 point method. It becomes to solve a nonlinear system to estimate the kernel function of apparent earth resistivity. However it is not simple to get solution of nonlinear system with many unknown variables. This paper suggests the method of estimating kernel function by linearizing this nonlinear system. Finally, various examples of earth structure have been simulated to evaluate the proposed method in this paper.

사다리꼴 역기전력을 갖는 BLDC 모터 제어에 있어서, 전류 맥동의 문제가 가장 심각하다. BLDC 모터 제어의 많은 연구가 이 전류 맥동 문제를 개선하기 위하여 연구되어지고 있다. 맥동의 저감을 위하여 전류 전환 시간동안에 전류 전환시의 보상 PWM 듀티를 인가하는 방법으로 전류의 감쇠/상승 기울기를 같게 하여 맥동을 줄일 수 있는 방법이 연구되었다. 여기서 전류전환 시간을 측정하기 위해서는 전류 전환시작 시점의 상전류를 아는 것이 매우 중요하다. 상 전류를 측정하는 방법으로는 전류센서를 이용하는 방법이 보편적으로 사용되나 저항을 이용한 전류 검출 방법을 사용하면 스위치의 On/Off에 대하여 이산적인 전류를 측정하게 되는 문제점이 있을 수 있다. 다른 방법으로는 전기 모델을 이용하여 전류를 추정함으로서 전류 검출을 대신할 수 있다. 이러한 전류 추정기는 선형 방정식으로 모델을 구성할 수도 있고, 뉴럴네트웍으로 전류모델을 구성할 수도 있다. 선형방정식으로 구하여진 모델은 일반적으로 실제 시스템에 산재되어 있는 비선형 성분들을 모델 내에 포함시킬 수 없다. 본 연구에서는 뉴럴네트웍 모델을 이용하여 안정적이면서 매우 정확한 비선형 모델을 이용하여 비교적 간단한 방법으로 전류를 추정하고 이를 전류 맥동 저감 방법에 적용하여 전류 맥동 보상에 유용함을 보였다.

Recently, the electrical DC survey has frequently been performed to assess the safety of embankment. This study showed that the damaged section of embankment could be appropriately detected by the survey only when the three dimensional effect was correctly considered. The shape of the three dimensional embankment was numerically implemented, and a proper modeling was performed to confirm the effect by analyzing the apparent and inverted true resistivity. Then, the field work was carried out. The three dimensional interpretation distinguished the erroneous weak zones from the geometrical artifact, and the embankment was ensured as safe both by the additional survey performed in rainy season and the partial excavation for direct observation.

This research endeavors to explore the nuances in apparent resistivity readings in concrete specimens due to the proximity of embedded reinforcement. To systematically gauge this, concrete samples incorporating singular and paired rebars were meticulously crafted. These rebars were strategically positioned at intervals of 0.03m, 0.04m, and 0.05m from each specimen's midpoint. Subsequent resistivity assessments were conducted at 0.01m increments up to the predetermined rebar location for each sample. A consistent observation was the nadir in apparent resistivity manifesting at the rebar's epicenter. Notably, dual-rebar configurations registered lower resistivity values at this central juncture compared to their single-rebar counterparts. This metric underscores the palpable impact of surrounding reinforcement on resistivity readings. Further, as the spatial separation between rebars increased, the distinctness in their locational identification via resistivity became increasingly pronounced.

In this paper, an adaptive compensation technique for parameter variation is proposed which can perform quick torque response in vector control of an induction motors. To solve the problem of control performance degradation due to parameter variation in an induction motor, a rotor resistance estimation is performed by the model reference adaptive control(MRAC). The algorithm of rotor resistance estimation is composed of the error relationship which is generated between a motor real instantaneous reactive power and an estimated instantaneous reactive power. The advantage of such a real reactive power reference model is independence of the motor parameter variation. The estimation rotor resistance values are applied to the direct vector control system with a flux observer. Finally, the simulations and experiment are presented to validate the rotor resistance estimation algorithm of induction motor.
