The transitional zone between tunnel and earthwork is one of the most vulnerable areas site for railway lines and because of differential settlement due to different stiffness of each supporting layer, it has to conducted a maintenance work constantly. In this study, it is conducted to compare the effect of reinforcement by wheel load and displacement of the sleepers after existing sleepers are replaced with the large sleepers for 20m long in-field transitional zone. Also, numerical parametric study using multi-layer elastic method has been performed to compare rail force, settlement and stresses of ballast while varying size and space of the sleeper. The field test and numerical results show that replacing the large sleepers improves about 10% of total settlement and coefficient of wheel force than conventional sleepers. Effectiveness of improvement is about 9.3%, 4%, 14.5% for rail seat force, settlement of sleepers and ballast pressure respectively with size of sleepers.

We performs the cost-benefit analysis, an economical analysis technique, to measure the effect of a shared public supercomputer. The costs of two given alternatives, to share the public supercomputer in a national center and to employ their own supercomputers in the organizations under the necessity, will be estimated and compared for decision making. In the case of sharing, we can simply predict the cost based on the results of the previous public supercomputer. The cost of individual introduction, however, is almost unpredictable since it has a remarkable variability due to the required system performances, locations, human factor, and so on. Accordingly, an objective and valid method to estimate the cost of individual cases will be proposed in this research. Finally, we analyze the economic effect of operating public supercomputer by comparing the sharing cost with that of the individual employs. The results of analysis confirms that the sharing public supercomputer will reduce the operational cost about 10.3 billion won annually compared with the individual introduction. Accordingly, it is expected that the sharing public supercomputer will bring a considerable economical effect.

The memory effect in maneuvering motion is very small and usually neglected. But, considering the maneuvering motion in waves, we need to calculate the memory effect strictly. Meanwhile. it is popular to treat the wave exciting forces as the steady sinusoidal forces and simply add to the right-hand side of the equation of the motion. This paper treats the memory effect in maneuvering motion when we take the wave exciting forces as the simple external forces and discuss the validity of such treatments.

This paper presents a method of optimizing the blade pitch and generator torque controllers which have been already designed for an existing wind turbine generator system. Since the highly nonlinear and uncertain characteristics of the wind turbine generator can not be fully considered in the controller design phase, some parameters such as control gains must be tuned during the field implementation phase. In this paper, nonlinear simulation software, which is based high fidelity wind turbine model, and optimization technique are effectively combined and used to tune a set of gains for the blade pitch and the generator torque controllers. Simulation results show that the baseline controllers can be effectively optimized to reduce the errors in wind turbine rotor speed and generator power output controls as well as twisting of the high and low speed shafts.

복합 토지이용 유역의 수문 모형에서 중요한 것은 큰 강우량이 발생하는 시점에서의 유출량과 유사량이다. SWAT 모형도 이와 같은 부분이 중요한 요소로 작용하는데 이는 모형의 평가가 실측값에 대한 예측값의 결정계수(Coefficient of determination, r²) 또는 Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency(NSE)와 같이 큰 값의 영향이 큰 지수들로 모형의 적합성을 평가하기 때문이다. 수질오염총량제와 같이 유역에서 발생하는 총량을 평가할 때는 강우로 인해 발생하는 유출과 수질뿐만 아니라 평시에 유출에 대한 수질도 중요한 부분이 될 수 있으나 모형의 평가에서 반영되기 어려우므로 실측값과 매우 다른 경향을 나타내는 경우가 많다. SWAT 모형에서는 하천 유사량에 사용되는 계수가 모든 상황에 일괄적으로 적용되기 때문에 과대 평가되는 경향이 있다. 본 연구에서는 SWAT 모형의 비강우시 하천 유사량 모의에 대한 부분이 강우시 하천 유사량에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. SWAT 모형에서 하천 유출량과 관련된 계수를 확정하고, 하천 유사량과 보정에 사용되는 변수 중에서 prf 계수를 평시와 강우시 다른 계수 적용하여 하천 유사량 변화에 대한 SWAT 모형의 반응을 확인하였다. 지표면 유출과 관련된 변수는 변화하지 않으므로 하천에 유입되는 유사량은 항상 같다고 가정하면, 특정 강우 조건에서의 하천 유사량은 변화하지 않아야 하지만 SWAT 모형에서는 평시 유사량에 따라 달라지는 경향이 나타났다. 이는 평시 prf 계수가 낮아질 때 하천을 통해 유역 밖으로 배출되는 유사량이 감소하였기 때문에 특정 강우 조건에서 유사량이 달라진 것으로 해석될 수 있다. 또한 현재 SWAT 모형은 지표면 유출로 유입되는 유사량 일부가 퇴적되기 때문에 평시에 실제보다 높은 농도로 예측되는 경향도 나타났다. 이러한 문제들을 해결하기 위하여 지표면 유출로 발생하는 유사의 하천 퇴적량을 최소화하고, prf 계수를 강우반응에 대해 변동성을 부여하는 등 비강우시에도 실측과 비슷한 수준의 유사량이 모의 될 수 있도록 SWAT 모형을 개선하고 있다.

Water use efficiency (WUE) is considered as an important ecological indicator which may provide information on the process-structure relationships associated with energy-matter-information flows in ecosystem. The WUE at ecosystem-level can be defined as the ratio of gross primary productivity (GPP) to evapotranspiration (ET). In this study, KoFlux's long-term (2007-2015) eddy covariance measurements of $CO_2$ and water vapor fluxes were used to examine the WUE of needle fir plantation in Korea National Arboretum. Our objective is to ascertain the seasonality and inter-annual variability in WUE of this needle fir plantation so that the results may be assimilated into the development of a holistic ecological indicator for resilience assessment. Our results show that the WUE of needle fir plantation is characterized by a concave seasonal pattern with a minimum ($1.8-3.3g\;C{\cdot}(kg\;H_2O)^{-1}$) in August and a maximum ($5.1-11.4g\;C{\cdot}(kg\;H_2O)^{-1}$) in February. During the growing season (April to October), WUE was on average $3.5{\pm}0.3g\;C\;(kg\;H_2O)^{-1}$. During the dormant seasons (November to March), WUE showed more variations with a mean of $7.4{\pm}1.0g\;C{\cdot}(kg\;H_2O)^{-1}$. These values are in the upper ranges of WUE reported in the literature for coniferous forests in temperate zone. Although the growing season was defined as the period from April to October, the actual length of the growing season (GSL) varied each year and its variation explained 62% of the inter-annual variability of the growing season WUE. This is the first study to quantify long-term changes in ecosystem-level WUE in Korea and the results can be used to test models, remote-sensing algorithms and resilience of forest ecosystem.

Strut-and-tie models for noncontact lap splices are presented and parameters affecting the effective lap length $(l_p)$ and the splice strength are discussed in this paper. The effective lap length along which bond stress is developed is shorter than the whole lap length. The effective lap length depends on the transverse reinforcement ratio $({\Phi})$ and the ratio of spacing to lap length $({\alpha})$. As the splice-bar spacing becomes wider, the effective lap length decreases and, therefore, the splice strength decreases. The influence of the ratio ${\alpha}$ on the effective lap length becomes more effective when the transverse reinforcement ratio is low. Because the slope of the strut developed between splice-bars becomes steeper as the ratio ${\Phi}$ becomes lower, the splice-bar spacing significantly affects the effective lap length. The proposed strut-and-tie models for noncontact lap splices are capable of considering material and geometric properties and, hence, providing the optimal design for detailing of reinforcements. The proposed strut-and-tie model can explain the experimental results including cracking patterns and the influence of transverse reinforcements on the splice strength reported in the literature. From the comparison with the test results of 25 specimens, the model can predict the splice strengths with 11.1% of coefficient of variation.

본 연구에서는 홍수조절 용 저수지의 예비방류 시행을 충분히 효과적으로 시행하고 강우종료 후에도 충분한 이수용량이 확보되도록 실시간 강우자료를 이용한 저수지 유입량 예측모형을 개발하였다. 사전예보(기상청 등)에 의한 총 예상강우량과 선행강우량, 현재 저수지 수위를 입력자료로 저수지 유입 총량과 수위변화량을 계산하여 홍수조절 응 저수지의 초기수위저하 및 하류 하도의 홍수방어를 사전에 대비할 수 있는 자료를 제시하였다. 또한, 유역을 하나의 통합시스템으로 구성하고 실제 강우가 시작되면 매시간 현시간 이후 강우가 중단된다는 가정 하에 현시점까지의 우량주상도를 통합시스템에 적용하여 이후 저수지 유입량을 예측하였다. 무한천 예당저수지에 적용하였으며 통합시스템의 구성은 저수지유역을 10개 소유역으로 분할하고 소유역별 홍수유출량은 Clark의 유역추적법, 하도구간은 Muskingum의 하도홍수추적 방법으로 계산되도록 하였다. 그리고 홍수유출시스템 내에는 강우관측소별 티센가중치에 따라 소유역별 평균강우량이 자동으로 입력되도록 하였으며, 예측정확도를 위해 현시간 이전까지 매시간마다 저수지의 수위변동과 실제 방류량으로부터 실측유입량을 산정하여 모형의 매개변수가 자동 보정되도록 하였다. 1995년 8월 23일$\~$8월 26일과 1999년 8월 2일$\~$8월 4일의 집중호우에 대하여 적용한 결과 모형의 예측정확도는 신뢰수준에 있었으며, 이와 같은 자료는 장수형 등(2005)이 제시한 효율적 저수지 운영관리 시스템과 하나로 통합되어 하류 하도의 통수능력을 고려한 홍수방어능력을 극대화한 예비방류의 시행과 강우종료 후에도 이수용량에는 손실이 없는 저수지의 관리방안의 지침이 되는데 효율적이라 판단되었다. 방법을 개발하여 개선시킬 필요성이 있다.>$4.3\%$로 가장 근접한 결과를 나타내었으며, 총 유출량에서도 각각 $7.8\%,\;13.2\%$의 오차율을 가지는 것으로 분석되어 타 모형에 비해 실유량과의 차가 가장 적은 것으로 모의되었다. 향후 도시유출을 모의하는 데 가장 근사한 유출량을 산정할 수 있는 근거가 될 것이며, 도시재해 저감대책을 수립하는데 기여할 수 있을 것이라 판단된다.로 판단되는 대안들을 제시하는 예비타당성(Prefeasibility) 계획을 수립하였다. 이렇게 제시된 계획은 향후 과학적인 분석(세부평가방법)을 통해 대안을 평가하고 구체적인 타당성(feasibility) 계획을 수립하는데 토대가 될 것이다.{0.11R(mm)}(r^2=0.69)$로 나타났다. 이는 토양의 투수특성에 따라 강우량 증가에 비례하여 점증하는 침투수와 구분되는 현상이었다. 경사와 토양이 같은 조건에서 나지의 경우 역시 $Ro_{B10}(mm)=20.3e^{0.08R(mm)(r^2=0.84)$로 지수적으로 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다. 유거수량은 토성별로 양토를 1.0으로 기준할 때 사양토가 0.86으로 가장 작았고, 식양토 1.09, 식토 1.15로 평가되어 침투수에 비해 토성별 차이가 크게 나타났다. 이는 토성이 세립질일 수록 유거수의 저항이 작기 때문으로 생각된다. 경사에 따라서는 경사도가 증가할수록 증가하였으며 $10\% 경사일 때를 기준으로 $Ro(mm)=Ro_{10}{\times}0.797{\times}e^{-0.021s(\%)}$로 나타났다.천성 승모판 폐쇄 부전등을 초래하는 심각한 선천성 심질환이다. 그러나 진단 즉시 직접 좌

The present study aims to design and utilize a model test system of a Caisson in wet towing condition, to assess towing stability of a 9,300 ton class caisson. The suggested towing system was designed to provide regular tension on the towline, whereas the previous model test system towed the model in constant speed. The new model test system was expected to reproduce the towing condition more realistically than the test system with constant speed condition, as the tugboat in actual towing condition tows the towline with constant power. Model tests were conducted in a towing tank with 1/30 scaled model. In the model tests, six-degrees-of-freedom motion of the caisson model and tension on the towline were measured and analyzed. By using the new system, fluctuation of the motion of model and tension on the towline decreased. The variation in the draft and initial trim was applied in the model tests. In the initial trim condition, the motion and towing force decreased.
