Based on the case study on the causes for the failure of cutting slope composed of weathered rock and soil, the factors influencing the design of a cutting slope have been examined, This type of rock and soil is widely distributed on the region whose parent rock is granite. To analyze the stability of the cutting slope, the following series of progress has been conducted: (1) ground characterization by geological survey and ground investigation, (2) the safety factor examination by limit equilibrium analysis and numerical analysis and (3) the comparison and analysis of rainfall and failure history. As a result, the main factors to cause the failure is determined to be the decrease of shear strength in the upper parts whose ground condition is weakened during localized heavy rain. Moreover, the analysis indicates the failure is also closely related to the groundwater inflow path. On the base of this investigation, a reinforcement method is proposed to ensure the stability of the cutting slope.

The mucociliary system is one of the most important airway defense mechanisms in human body and impairment of ciliary movement results in various diseases in respiratory tract. In this study, we have developed a system that can measure ciliary movement in vivo and quantified ciliary beat frequency (CBF) through autoregressive (AR) power spectrum. To measure the frequency in vivo, we applied a photoelectric method that was composed of a laser light and a fiber optic probe. Scattered signals are transferred to a PC in which they are displayed on the monitor and its CBF is determined by the AR method in were acquired. For 8 normal subjects, the analyzed CBFs ranged from 5 to 10Hz and its mean was 7.3${\pm}$1.1Hz. This result showed similar aspects to the reported results of CBFs to data. We expect that this result will be applied in various clinical studies such as analysis of CBF changes by drugs or by diseaes.

In this study, we Presented computational results on the blood flow in the sac of the Korean artificial heart. Two dimensional unsteady flow was assumed and we utilized a finite element commercial code ADINA to simulate the blood flow. Rigid body-solid contact were considered between the actuator and the blood sac and fluid-structure interaction between the blood and the sac. The three geometric models proposed in the design process were simulated to assess the hemodynamic characteristics of the models According to the computational results, a strong flow to the outlet and a stagnated flow region near the inlet were observed during systole. The sac was filled with blood and recirculating flow was generated near the outlet during diastole. Shear stress during systole had its extreme values near the outlet edge whereas the magnitude of shear stress values were relative)v high near the inlet edge and the contacting surface with the actuator.

It was made a friction material of various kinds by adding 10%, 20% and 30% of reduced iron. It was obtained by a connected-reduced process in a blast furnace sludge and oxidized iron, instead of $BaSO_4$, which is already a used inorganic filling material among a component of a brake friction material. This was done by a basic physical property test, a friction performance test to use a brake dynamometer. Moreover, in case of an add in the friction material, instead of using $BaSO_4$, the more expensive filling material, the reduced iron was also better because it has an excellent a friction property of an exothermic temperature, wear, etc. was 10%. At G1 and G3 specimens, a shear strength and a bonding strength of the friction material was decreased to be able to increase an amount of the blast furnace sludge and the reduced iron, but an application of all friction materials appeared enough strength.

하천에서 부유사의 형태로 이송되는 점착성 유사는 입자 표면의 전자기적 점착력의 영향과 하천의 흐름 및 난류에 의하여 지속적인 응집과 파괴의 과정인 응집현상을 겪는다. 이러한 응집현상을 통해 플럭을 형성한 점착성 유사의 크기 및 밀도는 끊임없이 변화하며 침강속도 역시 변화한다. 점착성 유사의 이동을 예측하기 위해서는 유사의 부유에 직접적으로 관계하는 침강속도를 이해하는 것이 중요하며 많은 연구에서 점착성 유사의 농도와 침강속도의 관계를 그래프로 보여주고 있다. 일반적으로 그래프에서 침강속도는 처음에 농도가 증가할수록 증가하는 비례 관계를 보여주다가 농도가 어느 정도를 넘어 더 증가하게 되면 감소하여 반비례하는 모양을 그리고 있다. 또한 연구들은 농도와 침강속도 두 관계가 분명한 멱함수법칙(Power Law)을 가진다고 언급하고 있다. 그러나 이전의 연구에서는 그래프가 보여주는 두 관계의 분석이나 메커니즘에 대해 중점을 두고 논의된 바가 없다. 본 연구는 점착성 유사의 응집현상과 이동을 모의하는 1차원 연직 수치모형으로 수치 실험을 실시하고, 그 결과를 바탕으로 농도와 침강속도가 갖는 관계를 면밀히 분석한다. 플럭의 크기 및 농도는 유사의 부유를 결정하는 침강속도와 매우 밀접한 관련이 있는 특징이며 특히 플럭의 크기는 침강속도를 결정한다. 즉 플럭의 크기와 농도가 갖는 관계가 침강속도와 농도가 갖는 관계에 크게 관여할 것으로 예측된다. 앞서 언급한 연구들의 그래프에서 비례 관계를 갖는 구간은 일반적으로 수면과 가까우며 농도와 크기가 비례하는 경향을 보이며 반비례하는 구간은 농도가 크고 난류가 강한 하상부근으로 두 관계가 반비례하는 경향이 밝혀진 연구가 있다. 점착성 유사의 농도 및 플럭의 크기가 이러한 경향을 띠는 것은 하상부근에서는 난류 전단과 그에 따른 플럭의 파괴와 응집의 결과로 나타나는 응집현상과 관련이 있으며 이러한 결과들을 바탕으로 점착성 유사의 침강속도와 농도가 가지는 관계를 분석한다.

Most of weather radar systems are used to monitor the whole weather situation for the very wide and medium-to-long range area. However, as the likelihood of occurrence of the local weather hazards is increased in recent days, it is very important to detect these wether phenomena with a local weather radar. For this purpose, it is necessary to detect the fast varying low altitude weather conditions and the effect of the ground surface clutter is more evident. Therefore, in this paper, the newly suggested method is explained and analyzed for detection of weather hazards such as the gust and wind shear using the fluctuation of wind velocities and the gradient of wind velocities among range cells. It is shown that the suggested method can be used efficiently in the future for faster detection of weather change through the simple algorithm implementation and also the effect of the ground clutter can be minimized in the detection procedure.

This paper presents an on-line finite element model updating method for in-service structures using measured data. Conventional updating methods, which are based on numerical optimization, are not efficient for on-line updating because they generally require repeated eigenvalue analyses until convergence criteria are met. The proposed method enables fully automated on-line finite element model updating, almost simultaneously with vibration measurement, without any user intervention or off-line procedures. The automated covariance-driven stochastic subspace identification (Cov-SSI) method is utilized to identify modal frequencies and vectors, and the identified modal data is fed to the neural network of the inverse eigenvalue function to produce the updated finite element model parameters. Numerical examples for a wind excited 20-story building structure shows that the proposed method can update the series of finite element model parameters automatically. It is also shown that sudden changes in the structural parameters can be detected and traced successfully.

The experiment of unsteady rip current generated at the successive ends of breaking wave crests of honeycomb pattern waves was conducted in a laboratory wave basin, and its time-varying evolution was observed by using ortho-rectified images. The present experiment utilized the generation of a quasi nodal line of the honeycomb-pattern waves formed by out-of-phase motion of two piston-type wavemakers arranged in the transverse direction, instead of the original honeycomb pattern waves which are generated when two wave trains propagate with slightly different wave directions. The velocities of rip current were measured by using the LSPIV (Large-Scale Particle Image Velocimetry) technique. As a result, the unsteady rip current was generated between successive ends of wave crests, and evolved with its shear fluctuations in this experiment. Also, the time series of LSPIV velocity of the unsteady rip current showd its short component due to waves and its long component due to wave-induced currents.

With the advancement of cyber threats and the development of hacking technologies, cyber security is being emphasized in various fields such as automobiles and ships. According to this trend, various industrial fields are demanding cybersecurity, and related certifications. In this paper, cybersecurity type approval is compared with the RMF stage under the premise that there are common elements with RMF in that cybersecurity elements must be reflected in the entire system development cycle. For comparison, type approval of maritime cyber security of the Korean Register of Shipping was selected. In conclusion, although type approval of maritime cyber security acquisition procedure is not divided by development stage like the RMF, there are the commonalities in the procedure to apply the cybersecurity element to the System development lifecycle like the RMF. Accordingly, the possibility of determining that the cybersecurity element was applied to the entire development cycle was confirmed.
