The large planar failure has occurred in a rock cut slope of highway construction site in Boeun. This area is considered to be unstable since the discontinuity, whose orientation is similar to the orientation of the failure plane, is observed in many areas. Therefore, several analysis techniques such as SMR, stereographic analysis, limit equilibrium, numerical analysis, which are commonly used in rock slope stability analysis, are adopted in this area. In order to analyze the stress redistribution and nonlinear displacement caused by cut, which are not able to be obtained in limit equilibrium method, DEM and shear strength reduction technique were used in this study. Then the factors of safety evaluated by shear strength reduction technique and limit equilibrium were compared. In addition, the factor of safety under fully saturated slope condition was calculated and subsequently, the effect of the reinforcement was evaluated.

This study analyzed the connectivity of the dry bulk carrier market before and after COVID-19 to examine the impact of COVID-19 on the global shipping market. Using the Quantile Time Frequency Connectedness methodology, we analyzed the dynamic connectedness of major dry bulk indices: the Capesize Index (BCI), Supramax Index (BSI), Panamax Index (BPI), and Handysize Index (BHSI). The results are as follows. First, the total spillover connectedness of the dry bulk carrier market increased during the entire period and in the short term after the outbreak of COVID-19, while it slightly decreased in the long term. Second, the roles among the indices changed according to market conditions, with COVID-19 causing the BPI to change from a net receiver to a net transmitter in the short term and the BSI in the long term, affecting net spillover connectedness. Third, it was observed that long-term connectivity tended to increase more than short-term connectedness under extreme conditions. Fourth, the phenomenon of strengthened connectedness under extreme market conditions was confirmed. These results provide important insights into understanding short-term market shocks and long-term stability trends, demonstrating that the connectedness among dry bulk carrier markets strengthens in global crisis situations such as COVID-19. This provides a basis for assessing the resilience and vulnerability of the shipping market and offers useful information for investors and policymakers in crisis management and investment strategy formulation.

In this paper we consider the specific types of the generalized continuous-time Lyapunov equation and the existence of solution. This is motivated to analyze the system stability in situations where descriptor system has infinite eigenvalue. As main results, firstly the necessary and sufficient condition for stability of the descriptor system with index one or two will be proposed. Secondly, for the general case of any index, the similar condition for stability of descriptor system will be proposed with the specific type of the generalized Lyapunov equation. Finally some examples are used to show the validity of proposed methods.

Hydrological data is very important in understanding the hydrological process and identifying its characteristics to protect human life and property from natural disasters. In particular, hydrological analysis are often performed assuming that hydrological data are stationary. However, recently climate change has raised the issue of climate stationary, and it is necessary to analyze the nonstationary of the climate. In this study, a method to analyze the stationarity of hydrological data was examined using the annual precipitation of 37 meteorological stations with long - term record data. Therefore, in this study, the stationary was determined by analyzing the persistence, trend, and stability using annual precipitation. Overall results showed that a trend was observed in 4 out of 37 stations, stable was investigated at 15 stations, and persistence was shown at 4 stations. In the stationary analysis using the annual precipitation data, 25 stations (67% of 37 stations) were nonstationary.

The electrical stability of the varistor ceramics composed of Zn-Pr-Co-Cr-Dy oxides-based varistors was investigated at 0.0∼2.0 mol% Dy$_2$O$_3$ content under DC accelerated aging stress. The ceramic density was increased up to 0.5 mol% Dy$_2$O$_3$ whereas further addition of Dy$_2$O$_3$ decreased sintered ceramic density. The density sailently affected the stability due to the variation of conduction path. The nonlinearity of varistor ceramics was greatly improved above 45 in the nonlinear exponent and below nearly 1.0 ${\mu}$A by incorporating Dy$_2$O$_3$. Under 0.95 V$\_$1mA/150$^{\circ}C$/24 h stress state, the varistor ceramics doped with 0.5 mol% Dy$_2$O$_3$ exhibited the highest electrical stability, in which the variation rates of varistor voltage, nonlinear exponent, and leakage current were -0.9%, -14.4%, and +483.3%, respectively. The variation rates of relative permittivity and dissipation factor were +7.1% and +315.4%, respectively. The varistors with further addition of Dy$_2$O$_3$ exhibited very unstable state resulting in the thermal runaway due to low density.

지점빈도해석은 수문자료의 관측기간이 짧은 경우 확률수문량 산정의 신뢰도가 낮은 경향이 있으므로, 지점 내 충분한 수의 자료확보가 선행되어야 한다. 지역빈도해석은 지점 자료가 부족한 경우 또는 미계측 지점에서 확률수문량을 결정하기 위하여 제안된 방법으로서, 자료수가 부족한 경우 지역빈도해석을 사용하면 효율적이고 안정적으로 확률수문량을 산정할 수 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 그간 국내 수문자료를 적용한 지역빈도해석에 대해 많은 검토가 이루어져 왔으나, 해외 수문자료에 대해서는 구하기 어려운 점 등의 이유로 상대적으로 검토가 부족했던 바, 본 검토에서는 해외 수문자료를 이용하여 지점빈도해석 및 지역빈도해석을 수행하여 결과를 비교하였다. 지역빈도해석의 기법으로는 지수홍수법 및 지역형상추적법을 적용하였으며, 적용한 지점의 L-변동계수, L-왜곡도계수의 차이에 따라 다른 결과가 나타났다. 일반적으로는 지역형상추적법이 지점빈도해석과 지수홍수법의 절충형으로, 확률수문량 산정결과도 지역형상추적법의 결과가 지점빈도해석과 지수홍수법의 사이에 위치할 것으로 예상하였으나, 어떤 경우에서는 그렇지 않은 결과를 도출하기도 하였다. 따라서, 지역빈도해석은 가급적 두 가지 이상의 방법을 적용한 뒤, 설계자가 자료의 특성에 따라 판단하여 적용해야 할 것으로 판단된다. 향후 국내에 비해 자료가 상대적으로 부족한 해외 수자원사업의 경우, 적은 자료수에서도 안정적인 결과를 산출하는 지역빈도해석의 적용이 필수적으로 판단되며, 해외 자료를 이용한 관련 연구가 지속적으로 이루어져야 할 것이다.

This study aims to assess the slope stability variation of Jeollabuk-do drainage areas by RCM model outputs based on A1B climate change scenario and infinite slope stability model based on the specific catchment area concept. For this objective, we downscaled RCM data in time and space: from watershed scale to rain gauge scale in space and from monthly data to daily data in time and also developed the GIS-based infinite slope stability model based on the concept of specific catchment area to calculate spatially-distributed wetness index. For model parameterization, topographic, geologic, forestry digital map were used and model parameters were set up in format of grid cells($90m{\times}90m$). Finally, we applied the future daily rainfall data to the infinite slope stability model and then assess slope stability variation under the climate change scenario. This research consists of two papers: the first paper focuses on the methodologies of climate change scenario preparation and infinite slope stability model development.

기온의 변화에 따라 전력수요는 상관성을 가지고 밀접하게 움직이는데, 최근에 와서 상관성이 약화되는 경향을 보이면서 불확실성이 증가되고 있다. 이러한 현상이 나타나는 원인은 기온을 분포함수화하여 접근하지 못하고, 누적기온 영향력과 실질적 기온분포를 반영하지 못했기 때문이다. 따라서 이를 보완하기 위해 전력기온지수라는 개념을 새로 창출하였으며, 여기에 누적기온반응도, 유효기온분포 및 실질기온 효과를 반영하였다. 따라서 종합적 전력기상요인인 전력기온지수를 통해 전력소비자의 자발적 수요관리 유도 및 안정적 전력수급의 토대를 마련할 수 있다는 결론을 얻었다.

The long memory properties of the hedge ratio for stock and futures have not been systematically investigated by the extant literature. To investigate hedge ratio' long memory, this paper employs a data set including KOSPI200 and S&P500. Coakley, Dollery, and Kellard(2008) employ a data set including a stock index and commodities foreign exchange, and suggested the S&P500 to be a fractionally integrated process. This paper firstly estimates hedge ratios with two dynamic models, BEKK(Bollerslev, Engle, Kroner, and Kraft) and diagonal-BEKK, and tests the long memory of hedge ratios with Geweke and Porter-Hudak(1983)(henceforth GPH) and Lo's modified rescaled adjusted range test by Lo(1991). In empirical results, two hedge ratios based on KOSPI200 and S&P500 show considerably significant long memory behaviours. Thus, such results show the hedge ratios to be stationary and strongly reject the random walk hypothesis on hedge ratios, which violates the efficient market hypothesis.

The research reported in this paper suggests an index of a 'good job' and validates it in several different ways. Not much is known yet, it is emphasized, about what the defining characteristics of a good job are and what the causes and major consequences are resulting from the attainment of such job. This is not merely because relatively little attention has been paid to construct a usable index, but also because a few studies, if any, were often plagued with several limitations, some theoretical and other analytical. As a consequence, fragmented speculations and research findings tended to flourish in the shortage of an overarching conceptualization and rigorous empirical assessment. In particular, a comprehensive index that encompasses a few critical job characteristics based on some solid theoretical underpinnings was in thirsty want. To relieve this want, the current study tries to formulate such index and validate it. A covariance structure analysis of representative national sample survey (Korean General Social Survey) data in South Korea indicates that wage, occupational prestige, authority and job security are the defining characteristics of a good job and that the index consisting of these characteristics is generally valid with respect to its constituent attributes, antecedents and a consequence, thereby supporting its discriminant-convergent and construct validities. The findings are interpreted with providing a few substantive implications stemming from them.
