The loss in photovoltaic power due to hailstorms has been highlighted as a major issue in the sustained growth of the PV power plant industry. This study investigates the safety of a solar module by conducting a numerical analysis of a hail test according to the IEC 61215 standard. Our study aims to elucidate the detailed behavior between the ice and solar modules and the micro-cracks forming on solar modules during hailstorms. To analyze the impact of hail, we used the ANSYS AUTODYN software to evaluate the impact characteristics on a solar module with different front glass thicknesses. The simulations show that a solar module with a glass thickness of 4.0 mm results in excellent durability against hail. The results indicate the feasibility of using simulations to analyze and predict micro-cracks on solar modules tailored to various conditions, which can be used to develop new solar modules.

The Poly (4-vinyipyridine-co-styrene) membrane containing Pyridine as fixed carrier was synthesized and characterized. And the active transport mechanism of Cl- and $CCl_3COO^-$ with changing concentration of $H^+$ and $OH^-$ was investigated. $CCl_3COO^-$ was transported not only by a symport mechanism with $H^+$ transfer but also by an antiport mechanism with $OH^-$transfer, while $Cl^-$ was transported only by a symport mechanism with $H^+$ transfer. Observing the initial flux of anions, salt formation constant between ions and membrane (K), and diffusion coefficient in membrane (D) were calculated as follows: for $Cl^-, \;K=4.60{\times}10^2\;mol^{-1}{\cdot}\textrm{cm}^3, \;D=1.57{\times}10^{-3}{\textrm{cm}^2/h$ and for $CCl_3COO^-, \;K=1.l0{\times}10^4\;mol^{-1}{\cdot}\textrm{cm}^3, \;D=1.14{\times}10^{-4}{\textrm{cm}^2}/h$.

환경부는 기존 대형 강우레이더 관측망에 대한 동해안 지역 관측공백 해소와 집중호우에 의한 재해예방을 목적으로 2기의 전파강수관측소를 삼척과 울진 통고산에 구축 운영하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 삼척 및 울진 전파강수관측소 관측 자료 품질 향상을 위한 다양한 품질 분석 기법을 소개하고 그 결과를 제시한다. 설치된 전파강수관측소의 시스템 특성 중 하나인 Short/Long 펄스 신호에 따른 자료의 연속/불연속성 및 피뢰침에 의한 자료 품질, 그리고 강수에 의한 신호감쇠에 따른 유효관측거리 등을 분석하였다. 이러한 분석을 기반으로 신호보정옵셋 및 피뢰침 위치 등을 조정하여 자료 품질을 향상하였다. 또한 삼척과 울진 전파강수관측소를 대상으로 분포형 비차등위상차 산정 기술을 적용하고 그 결과를 분석하였다. 비차등위상차는 시스템 편차나 우박 등의 영향에서 자유로워 특히 전파강수관측소와 같은 X 밴드 정량강우 추정에서 중요하다. 일반적으로 비차등위상차는 차등위상차에 대한 필터링 기법으로 산출하는데, 이 방법은 약한 강수에 대해 변동성이 크며 지형에코 등에 의해 영향을 크게 받는다는 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 일반적인 필터링 기법에 의한 비차등위상차와 분포형 기법을 적용한 비차등위상차에 대해 비교 분석을 하였다. 전파강수관측소 강우 자료를 이용한 분포형 비차등위상차 시험적용 결과 기존 비차등위상차에 비해 정성적으로 우위를 보임을 알 수 있었다.

This experiment was carried out to establish the mechanized methods in stumping and root-clearing, which were the most important works in the reclamation of sloping uplands. The determination of optimum teeth interval of rake blades and its operation methods to reduce the quantity of transported topsoil during the works, are the aims of this investigation. A newly designed rake blade, whose net teeth intervals could be regulated by three stages as 15cm, 25cm, and 35cm, was manufactured to attach to the bulldozer of 13ton. The experiments were carried out at Kilsang-Myon, Kwangwha-Gun, from Aug. 9 to Aug. 23, 1975. For each interval, 36 test plots of 50${\times}$10mn in size, which were regulated under three levels of land slopes of 10, 20, and 30% and two different tree stand density of high or medium values, were randomly chosen and arranged by two-replicated split-split plot design. Each stump classified by its diameter was stumped and cleared by the rake dozer to be related between diameter and stumping time. The results obtained in this experiment can be summarized as follows: 1. Stumping times for the diameters ranging from 6 to 18cm of stumps are almost the same and they are not varied by the difference of teeth intervals of rake dozer. 2. By back-ward stumping method, the number of stumps which can be stumped per hour ranges almost from 100 to 170, showing significant difference with respect to the teeth intervals. The working area is sharply varied with not only the stand density of stumps but the teeth intervals. 3. Optimum stumping distance for each teeth interval of rake dozer to minimize the quantity of transported topsoil are varied with such the rates as it is 15m or 20m for 15cm of teeth interval, but 25m for 25cm or 35cm, respectively. The clearing distance could be chosen almost double as long as the operating distance. 4. The working areas per hour of the simultaneous stumping and clearing methods are no significant difference among the various treatments of working conditions, but they are affected by the operating techniques. However, the influencing factors of the working conditions as classified before and the working directions are ranged from 10 to 15 per cent of total working area, respectively. 5. The residual rates of stumps which are not stumped by the rake dozer in each test plot are generally reduced as the teeth interval gets narrower, but there are no significant difference among them. The mean residual rates average to be about 4% for the simultaneous stumping and clearing method. The back-ward stumping method are recommended to be supervised and directed by more than one man, to show the operator where the stumps are located. 6. The results according to the stumping and clearing methods are summarized as Table IV-2. And the selection of working methods is recommended to follow as shown in Fig. IV-9 with respect to the stand density of the field. 7. Generally speaking, the narrower the teeth interval, the better become the working results, but the more the quantity of transported topsoil is increased. Therefore, it is recommended that the teeth interval should be reduced from the present distance of more than 30cm to 25cm or 15cm, by developing suitable working methods through more field works and experiments.
