The effective elastic constants of a single-crystal superlattice film have been determined by two methods based on the velocities of surface acoustic waves (SAW). One method uses formulas to calculate the effective elastic constants of a superlattice from the known elastic constants of the constituent layers. The calculated effective elastic constants are tested by comparing the corresponding SAW velocities calculated for thin-film/substrate systems with the corresponding SAW velocities measured by line-focus acoustic microscopy (LFAM). The other method determines the effective elastic constants of the superlattices by inverting the SAW velocity dispersion data measured by LFAM. The results of both methods applied to a TiN/NbN superlattice film are in good agreement.

In this paper, a fractal image coding based on discrete wavelet transform is proposed to improve PSNR at low bit rates and reduce computational complexity of encoding process. The proposed method takes the absolute value of discrete wavelet transform coefficients, and then constructs significant coefficients trees, which indicate the positions and signs of the significant coefficients. This method improves PSNR and reduces computational complexity of mapping contracted domain pool onto range block, by matching only the significant coefficients of range block to coefficients of contracted domain block. Also, this paper proposes a classification scheme which minimizes the number of contracted domain blocks compared with range block. This scheme significantly reduces the number of range and contracted domain block comparison.

In the case of single well pumping tests the storativities are generally overestimated. To compensate these errors, the effective wellbore radius should be introduced as a distance to an imaginary observation well in the time-drawdown analysis. Effective wellbore radius can be calculated through step drawdown tests or using skin factor equation. But both are of trial-and-error methods guessing real storativity values and, therefor, are difficult to apply to the field conditions. An equation was developed to estimate effective wellbore radius from storativity values obtained from pumping well data. For this study, a total of 136 time-drawdown data set were used to derive the equation. The effective wellbore radius were estimated first by changing them till the storativity values obtained from the pumping-well data match the ones based on the observation-well data. Then the equation was regressed from the relation between effective wellbore radius and the storativity values obtained from the pumping-well data. It is believed that the equation would be useful in estimating effective wellbore radius from the single well tests.

유효유량이란 수년에 걸쳐 연 유사량의 대부분을 이동시키는 유량으로 정의되며 유량-빈도분포곡선과 유사량 곡선을 이용하여 산정된다. 유효유량은 하도를 설계하거나 기존 하도의 안정성을 평가하는데 있어 기준유량이 될 수 있는 필수적인 요소이지만, 현재 국내의 경우 이에 대한 분석이 충분히 수행되지 않아 특정한 패턴을 도출하기 힘든 실정이다. 특히 우리나라의 하천은 연강수량의 약 70%가 여름철에 집중되는 기후적 특성의 영향으로 하상계수가 미국과 유럽에 비해 10에서 25배 크게 나타나 외국사례를 국내에 적용하는데 어려움이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 구하도복원이 계획 또는 진행되어 유효유량 산정이 필수적이며 하상계수가 매우 큰 만경강, 청미천, 함평천을 대상하천으로 선정하여 유효 유량을 산정하고 수리적, 지형학적 특성과의 연관성을 분석하고자 한다. 유효유량을 계산하는 데 있어 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 요소는 유량빈도 간격 수와 유량빈도 간격의 설정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 유효유량 산정을 위한 유량 간격으로 산술등간격(Arithmeic Bin)과 로그간격(Logarithmic Bin)을 모두 사용하였으며 각각 간격수가 25개, 50개, 100개인 경우에 대해 유효유량을 계산하여 비교하였다. 산술등간격과 로그간격을 사용한 유효유량 산정결과 중 최대, 최소값을 제외한 나머지의 평균값을 각 대상하천의 유효유량으로 선정하였다. 수리적, 지형학적 특성에 따른 대상하천 분석 결과 하상계수가 클수록 유효유량이 크게 산정되는 것으로 나타났으며 하상 경사, 하상토의 중앙입경 크기와 비례하는 것으로 나타났다. 반면에 수심-하폭비와 사행도의 경우 유효유량과 반비례하는 것으로 나타났다.

This paper presents a new, effective torsional constant for thin-waled open beams under concentrated and uniformly distributed torques. The proposed constant can be used directly, instead of the St. Venant torsional constant, for any generic comemrcial finite-element program, without modifying the algorithm. The derived torsional constant accounts for both the pure torsion and the warping torsion, and is equal to the St. Venant torsion constant times a correction factor. It is also shown, in the case of the St. Venant torsion, that the derived constant is identical to the torsional constant. The derived effective torsional constant is different from the one given by Elhelbawey et al. The pure torsional shear stress, the warping shear stress, and the warping normal stress were also determine d, using the maximum twisting angle. The accuracy of the proposed torsional constant was validated by comparing the numerical results with the closed-form solutions or other numerical results available in the literature.

Fire-enhanced soil hydrophobicity often increases runoff and erosion in the mountain hillslope following severe wildfires. Estimation techniques for WEPP's parameters were studied in burnt mountain slopes. In burnt mountain slopes, the model over-predicted runoff in the small runoff and under-predicted runoff in the great runoff, and in the lower sediment runoff it had a tendency to over-predict soil loss. The effective hydraulic conductivity was most sensitive in the WEPP's runoff and its sediment runoff was mainly effected by the effective hydraulic conductivity, initial saturation, rill erodibility, and interrill erodibility. To improve the applicability of the WEPP, the adjustment coefficient of effective hydraulic conductivity was defined for runoff and the adjustment coefficient of rill erodibility and interrill erodibility was presented for sediment runoff. The adjustment coefficient of effective hydraulic conductivity in wildfire mountain slopes increased with maximum rainfall intensity of single storm and the vegetation height index. The adjustment coefficients of rill erodibility depended on soil components of size distribution curve and total rainfall depths in single storm. The adjustment coefficients of interrill erodibility decreased with increases of maximum rainfall intensity and vegetation height index. These results may be used in the application of WEPP model for wildfire mountain slopes.

The paper proposes a method calculate the allocations of real power losses in transmission lines to individual loads based on loss distribution factors and compares them with those using marginal loss factors. The proposed method is implemented by defining loss distribution factors and analysing the individual loads' shares in the transmission line losses. Computer simulations on a 9-bus sample system verify effectiveness of the algorithm proposed and give an assertion that it is desirable to allocate power losses to loads using loss distribution factors rather than based on marginal loss factors.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effective energy of a polyenegetic X-ray beam. The half value layer(HVL) of aluminum for 80 kVp X-ray beam was measured by using optically stimulated luminescent nanoDot dosimeters(OSLnDs). The linear attenuation coefficient(${\mu}$) was calculated using the measured HVL. And the mass attenuation coefficient(${\mu}/{\rho}$) was obtained by dividing the linear attenuation coefficient by the density(${\rho}$) of aluminum. The effective energy($E_{eff}$) of the obtained mass attenuation coefficient was determined using data of the X-ray mass attenuation coefficients for photon energies of aluminum given by National Institute of Standards and Technology(NIST). As a result, the HVL value is 2.262 mmAl. The ${\mu}$ value is $3.06cm^{-1}$. The ${\mu}/{\rho}$ value is $1.114cm^2/g$. And the $E_{eff}$ value was determined at 29.79 keV.

In this study, column diffusion tests for Cd and Zn were conducted at $15^{\circ}C$ and $55^{\circ}C$ to investigate a temperature effect on effective diffusion coefficient. An increase in temperature from $15^{\circ}C$ to $55^{\circ}C$ caused up to ten times larger diffusion coefficient for each heavy metal. Besides, it caused the increased retardation of heavy metals, and hence the effective diffusion coefficient should be overestimated as we use an overestimated retardation factor to calibrate the coefficient. The results of sequential extraction analyses showed that Zn was occluded in carbonate phase and this trend was getting prominent with the increase in temperature. As for Cd, it was partitioned mainly in the exchangeable phase(over 60%) at any temperature.
