Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have a longer lifespan, higher energy density, and lower self-discharge rates than other batteries, therefore, they are preferred as an Energy Storage System (ESS). However, during years 2017-2019, 28 ESS fire accidents occurred in Korea, and accurate capacity estimation of LIB is essential to ensure safety and reliability during operations. In this study, data-driven modeling that predicts capacity changes according to the charging cycle of LIB was conducted, and developed models were compared their performance for the selection of the optimal machine learning model, which includes the Decision Tree, Ensemble Learning Method, Support Vector Regression, and Gaussian Process Regression (GPR). For model training, lithium battery test data provided by NASA was used, and GPR showed the best prediction performance. Based on this study, we will develop an enhanced LIB capacity prediction and remaining useful life estimation model through additional data training, and improve the performance of anomaly detection and monitoring during operations, enabling safe and stable ESS operations.

In this paper, from the pervious studies investigating the current status of distance learning due to COVID-19, the needs of teachers for effective distance learning were analyzed. As a result, it was found that support related to distance learning contents was necessary. Specifically, it is necessary to establish a platform specialized for content production for distance learning, expand teacher training related to content production and operation, and improve the copyright system related to content production. In addition, since distance classes differ from those of back-to-school classes in system and characteristics, it is necessary to supplement the institutional aspects for distance classes. It is judged that it is necessary to support the evaluation method suitable for distance learning, the authority to operate the curriculum, and the learning management system. In addition, it was analyzed that it is necessary to expand the infrastructure for distance learning, and a structure and platform for self-directed improvement programs and self-directed distance learning are needed to prevent the learning gap problem from repeating due to distance learning.

As the trade linkages and the financial relationship between China and Korea grow stronger, China's influence on Korea is also growing larger. Therefore, it is meaningful to examine key features of Chinese monetary policy operations and the current situation, and to analyze the transmission mechanism of China's monetary policy shocks onto the Korea economy. China's monetary policy shocks can have an impact on the Korea economy through the trade, financial and oil-price channels. In the trade channel, an expansionary Chinese monetary policy can increase Korea's exports of intermediate goods to China under the vertical trade structure, via the vertical trade integration effect. Meanwhile, the expenditure switching effect and the income demand effect show no statistical significance. In the financial and oil-price channels, expansionary Chinese monetary policy shocks can decrease the interest rate and increase both stock prices and the consumer price index in Korea through changes in global portfolio capital flows, interest rates, and raw material prices.

최근 지진 발생 빈도와 규모가 증가함에 따라 지진재해에 취약한 지하구조물의 내진성능 향상 및 신속한 복구에 관한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 대표적인 지하구조물 중 하나인 상수관망은 음용수를 안전하고 원활하게 공급하는 사회기반시설물로써 대부분의 시설물이 지하에 매설되어 있어 지진재해에 매우 취약하다. 지진으로 인해 상수관망 내 누수 및 파손 등의 피해가 발생할 경우, 물 공급이 중단되어 경제적 손실과 사회 전반적인 불편이 우려되므로 피해 관로의 신속한 파악과 복구가 이루어져야 한다. 상수관로에 발생하는 피해는 크게 누수와 파손으로 구분할 수 있다. 관로가 파손된 경우 용수가 표층으로 새어나오기 때문에 탐지가 용이하지만, 누수의 경우 표층으로 드러나는 피해가 없어 탐지 및 수리가 어려운 단점이 있다. 이러한 누수가 장기간 방치될 경우, 해당 시스템의 유수율 감소로 인한 경제적인 손실과 더불어 공급수압의 저하, 그리고 오염물 침투의 위험이 존재한다. 이러한 피해를 막기 위해서는 신속히 누수 지점을 파악한 후, 피해 관로의 교체 혹은 보수가 이루어져야 한다. 현장에서 누수를 직접 탐지하는 방법은 정확도가 높은 반면, 많은 인력과 장비 그리고 비용이 소모되는 단점이 존재한다. 따라서 현장 누수탐지에 앞서 컴퓨터를 이용한 간접 누수탐지 기법이 지속적으로 개발될 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 현장 누수탐지의 탐지효율을 향상시키기 위해 수압, 유량 등의 관측 데이터와 수리해석 모의 및 최적화 기법을 활용한 컴퓨터 기반의 다중누수 탐지모형을 개발하였다. 개발 모형은 국내에서 운영 중인 소블럭 상수관망시스템에 적용하여 검증하고 탐지효율을 분석하였다. 컴퓨터 모의를 이용한 다중누수 탐지모형은 지진이나 홍수와 같은 대규모 재난 발생 후, 상수관망시스템의 신속한 복구 및 운영 정상화를 위한 도구로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

영산강 유역은 타수계에 비해 농경지 비율이 높으며, 영산강 하류에는 나주평야 등 논농사를 하고 있어 농업용수 위주의 물이용율이 높다. 또한 4대호(광주호, 장성호, 담양호, 나주호) 이외의 대규모 다목적댐이 없어 수자원 확보에 어려움이 있다. 섬진강 유역은 유역변경으로 대부분 타수계로 물 공급이 이루어져 하천유량 부족, 섬진강 하류 생태계 피해로 물문제가 지속되고 있다. 이러한 물문제를 해결하기 위해 물관리 일원화에 따른 물이용, 수량, 수질 등을 모두 고려한 효율적인 통합 물관리 방안이 제시되고 있다. 통합 물관리를 위해 유역 내 수자원 이용현황과 물 문제해결 등을 고려한 용도별 최적 물이용 계획 및 효율적인 물관리 운영방안이 중요시되고 있다. 이를 위해서는 지역의 여건 및 특수사항을 고려한 장래 물공급량 변화 및 과부족량에 대해 분석하는 것이 필요하다. 이에 본연구에서는 대상지역인 영산강·섬진강 유역 특성 및 물공급체계를 파악하고 이를 반영한 물수지 분석체계를 구축하여 유역 내 수자원 현황을 파악하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 실제 물이용체계를 반영하고 용수계통에 따라 자기유역 내 또는 타수계에 대해 용도별 수요량에 따른 공급량, 부족량을 산정하여 그 적용성을 평가하고자 한다. 이를위해 1) 하천수는 유수와 저수로 구분하고 유수는 하천 취수시설의 실사용량을 유역단위 수요량으로 추정, 저수는 다목적댐은 계약량, 농업용저수지는 필요공급량을 개별시설의 수요량으로 설정하여 각각의 수원(저수/유수)에 대한 수요량 대비 공급량과 부족량을 분석하였다. 2) 댐과 저수지는 용수공급조정기준에 따라 공급량을 탄력적으로 적용하고 농업용저수지는 가뭄등급에 따라 하천유지용수를 고려하였다. 3) 주암본댐과 섬진강댐은 송정 수위관측지점의 유량 상황에 따라 환경대응용수를 고려하였다. 4) 주안본댐과 주암조절지댐의 연계 운영을 고려하였다. 물수지 분석 결과 검증을 위해 주요 지점의 관측유량과 물수지 분석을 통해 계산된 유량을 비교하여 적용성 분석을 진행한 결과 상관관계가 높게 분석되었다. 본 연구 결과를 바탕으로 영산강·섬진강 유역 내 효율적인 물관리 방안 수립에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

This urban centralization is expected to develop rapidly, with 75% of the population living in the city by 2035. Large cities are becoming unsustainable due to side effects such as environmental pollution, severe traffic jams, excessive energy depletion, and destruction of the natural ecosystem. In addition, the happiness index of citizens of large cities is also falling because of high crime rates and safety accidents, the work-life imbalance caused by inequality and polarization, and overly competitive education. To solve this problem, Smart City, an IT-based future city model, was born. The Korean government is also actively attempting to improve urban competitiveness and promote sustainable development through efficient construction and operation of smart cities as a national focus project. To support the effort, we review the basic directions and strategies of Sejong City's Smart City service infrastructure based on the comprehensive national land plan, Smart City plan, and Smart City strategy plan.

This research sought to determine the status of the installation and operation of composting facilities of domestic public resource-making facilities and come up with corresponding improvement measures. The composting facilities were the most extensively installed of related facilities with over a 0.5 ton treated volume per day. The monthly and yearly carry-in volume of food waste were found to stand at 1,101.7 tons per day and 930.9 tons per day, thus falling short of the average planned volume of 1,270.9 tons. Many composting facilities, which were installed in areas for which factory registration were not approved, did not get approvals. Composting facilities underwent operation stoppage mainly due to faulty fermentation and crushing equipment. Mainly metals contained in food waste caused faults to the crushing equipment, thus requiring a facility designing against faults and corrosion. The initial water content was found to stand at 50-60%, thus complying with the requirement. However, since the composting food waste had an appropriate mixture of sawdust, food waste, and returned compost, it should meet the initial conditions. For fermentation facilities, the duration time for fermentation was 15 days, and post-fermentation tanks required 21 days of duration time, thus establishing the minimum criteria. However, some facilities did not meet the requirements, taking more time in decomposition, thus suggesting a need to determine the duration time according to facilities. In composting food waste, microorganism-based thermal oxidizer-operated fermentation tanks should be used to ensure an economic operation. On the contrary, 14 out of 25 survey targets heated fermentation tanks in any form. These thermal facilities contain the growth of bacteria, lowering chemical reaction in composting; thus composting facilities should be basically designed to use microorganism-based thermal oxidizers in drying water. An average daily volume of food waste and supplementary materials that was injected in producing compost was 22.8 tons. This volume produced 7.3 tons of compost per day, decreasing 68%. Properties of produced compost were analyzed by its color, absence or presence of remaining decomposition heat, and smell, to assess the quality. As a result, the composting process was not properly installed nor operated in about 50% of composting facilities. Compost should be produced to be soil-friendly.

In 2011, South Korea's Ministry of Health and Welfare started a national tooth brushing room program without a pilot project. This study aimed to assess the effect of the implementation of this program in Gangneung, Korea. One-year outcomes of oral health behavior and self-reported oral symptoms in the study group after installation of the tooth brushing room were evaluated and compared with those of the control group using chi-square test. The prevalence rate of good self-rated oral health in grade 1-3 students increased from 35.7% immediately after installation to 48.9% after 6 months (p=0.031) compared to 37.3% in the control group (p=0.051). Immediately after installation of the tooth brushing room, 53.5% of grade 1-3 students in the study group brushed their teeth every day, but after 6 months, only 35.5% of students brushed daily (p<0.001) compared to 28.6% in the control group (p=0.007). The prevalence rate of bad breath in grade 1-3 students was 26.2% for the study group immediately after installation compared to 25.5% in the control group (p=0.065), but it declined 16.5% after 6 months (p=0.055). The prevalence rate of bad breath in grade 4~6 students was 14.7% for the study group after 6 months compared to 25.3% in the control group (p=0.016). We recommend the creation of a healthy school environment through a school-based tooth brushing program under the active supervision of classroom teachers and the continuous monitoring of program processes in order to promote children's oral health.

The travel speed collected by the prove-car equipped with the GPS has the problems, which are the data's stability and finding out the representative travel speed, by the influence of the traffic signal and etc. at the interrupted traffic. This study was conducted to develop the method of filtering the outlier data from the data collected by the prove-car. The method to remove the outlier data from the serial data which were collected by the prove-car was adapted to each of the quartile deviation statistics model and the management graphic statistics model. The rate of removing the outlier data by the quartile deviation method was $0{\sim}3.7%$ while the rate by the management graphic statistic methods was $0.3{\sim}7.2%$. Both methods show the low removal rate at the dawn time when the traffic is inactivity, on the other hand the remove rate is high during the daytime. However, both methods have the problem such that the threshold level for removing the outlier data was established at the low bound in the case as good as the statistics model. Therefore, it is required for the experience calibration.
