In order to analyze synthetically geomorphological processes of marine terrace in Korea, this study deals with the distribution of marine terraces, stratification of sedimentary layers, physicochemical properties of deposits, and formative ages of marine terraces based on OSL(Optically Stimulated Luminescence) absolute age at coastal area of Gwangyang Bay in central part of the South Coast. As a result of comparison with physicochemical properties on diverse geomorphic materials, there is not enough distinction in them, because of recycling and mixing of materials at Gwangyang Bay having a geomorphic closure. In Gwangyang bay coast, marine terraces are discovered at least 3 levels and have a small area. Formative age of 1st Terrace, as the lowest level ranging in $10{\sim}13m$ above the sea level, is estimated at MIS(Marine Isotope Oxygen Stage) 5a, based on OSL age dating and properties of deposits. Uplifting rate is calculated at 0.141m/ka in Gwangyang bay coast. For application to this rate, 2nd terrace($18{\sim}22m$) is estimated at MIS 5e, 3rd terrace($27{\sim}32m$) is latter part of MIS 7. Consequently, we might conclude that uplifting and geomorphic process of marine terrace in South Coast is similar to East Coast during the Late Pleistocene in Korea.

This study examines the structure of intergenerational relationship and its effects on old-age security of the Korean society. Of interest is the effects of the middle aged's attitudes on old parents'security on their intergenerational exchange relationship and on their own old-age security as well. This study also attempts to test the applicability of the social exchange perspective to the study of intergenerational support relationship in Korea The social exchange perspective considers intergenerational relationship as an exchange of aids and rewards between generations. However due to strong norm of filial duty and inadequate welfare system, supporting old parents is regarded as younger generation's duty in Korea This study utilizes a survey data conducted by Kim et al.(2000). Major findings can be summarized as follows. First, the middle aged who gives one-sided supports to their parents tends to have the traditional attitude on old parents' security. It implies that intergenerational support relationship in Korea is not consistent with the explanations from the social exchange perspective. This study suggests a 'chained reward system'as an altermative explaining the intergenerational relationship. Second, an absolute majority of the middle aged tend to think that they are responsible for their own old-age security regardless of the pattern of intergenerational support relationship and attitudes on old parents' security. It implies that the middle aged in Korea holds the status of 'marginal men' who supports their parents but can't take the similar supports from their children.

A urolithiasis, also called calculus, is one of the brutal illnesses, which has constantly harassed humanbeings from time immemorial. However, there is no appropriate method of prevention so far. So, Urological therapy must be followed upon those patients. The biggest problem of urolithiasis is usually causing harsh pain, fever, and throw up. The pain would be more intensified when something came through the ureter or the moment of convulsion caused beyond transmission of urinary calculus. Even strong painkillers, such as fentanyl and Pethidine, can not handle those harshly pain easily. Therefore, a prompt action of medical check up and its therapy must be required to those patients. This thesis paper has put the accent on the specific therapy, known as ESWL (Extracorpereal Shock Wave Lithotripsy), which have generated quite optimum resolution to patients, who received harsh pain from Proximal ureteral stone and Mid ureteral stone and because of its low provability of pulverization. The results of the experiment confirmed that the stone, located between Proximal and Mid ureter, has lower provability of pulverization than distal ureter, because its accuracy rate on shock wave, in respect of breathing, are low. However, decrease in discharge interval have enhanced provability of pulverization. it can also intensify probability of pulverization and its safety by discharging high power with appropriate intervals, and that is more efficient than discharging low power with frequent time.

이상치는 표본자료에서 크게 어긋나 다른 자료들로부터 떨어져 표시되는 자료로써, 실제로 발생할 확률이 매우 낮은 자료로 정의되고 있다. 설계홍수량을 산정하기 위하여 적용하고 있는 극치계열의 연최대치 강우자료에는 기계오작동 및 엔지니어의 표독오류가 발생하고 있으며, 기후변화에 따른 거대태풍 및 국지적인 집중호우 발생 등으로 인한 극치값 등에서 이상치가 관측되고 있다. 통상 이상치들은 통계분석시 자료 본연의 특성을 왜곡시켜 편향된 결과를 산정할 수 있으므로 빈도해석시 이상치해석 절차를 수행하여 자료의 적정성을 확인하여야 한다. 현재 실무에서는 설계홍수량 산정요령과 하천설계기준 해설 등에서 관련 내용을 기술하고 있지만, 국내 강우자료의 기록연수의 부족으로 인하여 빈도해석시 이상치 해석이 미수행되고 있어 이상치에 따른 자료편의가 발생하면 결과물인 확률강우량이 왜곡되게 산정될 수 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 국내 주요 도시의 강우자료를 이용하여 이상치검정을 수행하였다. 대상지점으로는 서울, 부산, 대전, 대구, 인천, 광주, 울산 등의 비교적 긴 관측년수를 보유하고 있는 광역시를 선정하였으며, 지속기간은 10분, 1~24시간의 25개 강우자료를 적용하였다. 이상치검정 방법으로는 타 방법에 비하여 이상치 검정력이 뛰어난 것으로 알려진 2가지 방법을 채택하였으며, 표본자료의 평균과 표준편차로 표준화된 z값을 이용하여 상 하 한계선를 초과하는 값을 확인하는 z-Score 방법중 향상된 중위수 절대편차(MAD)에 의한 수정 z-Score 방법(Hoaglin, 1993)과 Box-Plot 방법(Tukey, 1969)을 적용하였다. Box-Plot 방법(Tukey, 1969)은 전체 자료를 25%씩 사분위로 구분하는 방법으로 정렬된 자료계열을 중앙값, 박스, 수염(whiskers), 이상치로 구분한다. 정렬된 25~75% 값들을 박스로 포함하여 외곽의 수염값들을 이상치로 분류하며, 특히 사분위수의 도식화로 데이터의 분포를 파악하기 좋으며, 이상치들의 위치와 자료의 비대칭 여부를 쉽게 파악할 수 있다. 본 연구의 수행으로 수정 z-Score 방법의 경우에는 서울과 대구지점에는 이상치가 없으며, 부산지점에는 13개, 대전지점 7개, 인천지점 5개, 광주지점 32개, 울산지점 26개가 나타났다. Box-Plot 방법으로는 서울지점 35개, 부산지점 39개, 대전지점 32개, 대구지점 38개, 인천지점 51개, 광주지점 61개, 울산지점 65개의 이상치가 분석되었다. 연구를 수행한 결과, 수정 z-Score 방법에 비하여 Box-Plot 방법에 의한 이상치가 더 많이 발생하였으며, 각각의 방법으로 지속기간 및 연도별 이상치 발생자료를 확인하였다. 방법별 이상치 발생현황 등을 분석하여 지점별 발생횟수를 분석하였으며, 추후 지점 및 자료의 보완이 수행되면 활용성을 증대시킬 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

It is commonly emphasized that the metaphor of the monster is a rhetoric universally used to identify the "main enemy" of a society, for its effective function is seen as useful for the uniting of citizens to bend together to survive or succeed before the external threat. The problem of this metaphor is that it homogenizes and dehumanizes the heterogeneous individual members of the subsequently identified enemy group. This study emphasizes the importance of some traits of the posthuman subject, such as the flexibility and the multiplicity of consciousness, to overcome the otherizing binary perspective which is commonly held regarding the concepts of good and evil. To observe specific dimensions of the posthuman consciousness, we analyze three films based on Spanish history and reality: The Spirit of the Beehive, The Day of the Beast and Pan's Labyrinth. All of these films progress around the figure of the enemy-monster(s), showing how to transgress the dichotomous structure of consciousness that defines the self/good dividing it from the other/evil. The heroes in the films seek to overcome the fear about the monster, and approach him to discover new ethical horizons, that can emerge only when an individual's consciousness chooses to stay on the border between the established beliefs and the unfamiliar voice of the dangerous stranger(s).

Traditional automobile or 2-wheeled robot have limitations on mobility because of their mechanical structure. As traditional automobile is being replaced by electric cars, robot technology is applied to the car industry. In robotics, many researchers worked on omnidirectional mobile robot and produced lots of noticeable results. However in many of the results, specialized wheels such as Mecanum wheels are required. That imposes restrictions on robot speed and outdoor driving. We proposed a 2-wheeled modular robot that has omnidirectional mobility without using specialized wheels. In this paper, we propose a 4-wheeled omnidirectional mobile robot that consists of those two modular robots. The proposed robot adopts electric brakes to combine wheel housings and the robot body or to separate wheel housings from the robot body. Two absolute-type encoders and four incremental encoders are used to control the position of the wheel housing and velocities of the wheels. The proposed robot has omnidirectional mobility and can move fast and outdoor with normal tire wheels. We implemented the proposed robot and the feasibility and stability of the robot is verified by two separate experiments.

This study carried out the laboratory tests for AE signal attenuation to determine the attenuation coefficient (α) of silo concrete in Gyeongju low and intermediate-level disposal environments. The concrete samples were prepared by satisfying the concrete mixing ratio used in the Gyeongju disposal silo, and these samples were additionally exposed depending on the temperature conditions and saturation and, dry condition. As a result of attenuation tests according to the transmission distance on three concrete specimens for each disposal condition, the AE amplitude and absolute energy measured on the saturated concrete were higher than that of the dry concrete in the initial range of the signal transmission distance, but the α of the saturated concrete was higher than that of the dry concrete. Regardless of the saturation and dry conditions, the α tended to decrease as the temperature increases. The α had a more major influence on the saturation and dry condition than the temperature condition, which means that the saturation and dry condition is the main consideration in measuring the signal attenuation of a concrete disposal structure. The α of concrete in the disposal environment expect to be used to predict the integrity of silos concrete in Gyeongju low and intermediate-level disposal environments by estimating the actual AE parameter values at the location of cracks and to determine the optimum location of sensors.

This study is for the software implementation to generate atmospheric and surface reflectance products from RapidEye satellite imagery. The software is an extension based on Orfeo Toolbox (OTB) and an open-source remote sensing software including calibration modules which use an absolute atmospheric correction algorithm. In order to verify the performance of the program, the accuracy of the product was validated by a test image on the Radiometric Calibration Network (RadCalNet) site. In addition, the accuracy of the surface reflectance product generated from the KOMPSAT-3A image, the surface reflectance of Landsat Analysis Ready Data (ARD) of the same site, and near acquisition date were compared with RapidEye-based one. At the same time, a comparative study was carried out with the processing results using QUick Atmospheric Correction (QUAC) and Fast Line-of-sight Atmospheric Analysis of Spectral Hypercubes (FLAASH) tool supported by a commercial tool for the same image. Similar to the KOMPSAT-3A-based surface reflectance product, the results obtained from RapidEye Extension showed accuracy of agreement level within 5%, compared with RadCalNet data. They also showed better accuracy in all band images than the results using QUAC or FLAASH tool. As the importance of the Red-Edge band in agriculture, forests, and the environment applications is being emphasized, it is expected that the utilization of the surface reflectance products of RapidEye images produced using this program will also increase.

서해안 중부 아산만 안쪽에 위치하는 평택·당진항에서 장래 개발 예정인 면적 6.9km²의 내항2공구 수역은 내항2공구 외곽호안 - 내항가호안 - 내항2공구 중앙 분리호안으로 둘러싸여 있으며, 투수성 제체인 내항가호안 사석 공극을 통하여 해수가 유통되어 조석 현상이 나타나고 있다. 2020년 8~9월의 2개월간 내항2공구 외곽호안 내·외측에서 조석 관측 결과, 2공구 수역의 최대 조차는 1.97m로서 외측 해역 최대 조차 9.79m의 20.1%이고 내·외측의 순간 수위차는 최대 5.82m에 달한다. 내항가호안은 내항2공구 개발이 거의 완료되는 시기까지 유지될 예정이므로 2공구 개발에 따른 내측 조차와 내·외측 수위차의 변화를 정확하게 예측하는 것은 내항가호안 제체 안전에 매우 중요하다. 이 연구의 목적은 장래 개발단계별 변화 예측에 앞서, 관측이 이루어진 2개월간의 실시간 내측 조석과 내·외측 수위차 시계열을 Delft3D-Flow를 이용하여 기 구축된 아산만 수치모델에서 재현하는 것이다. 내항가호안 제체 통과 유량은 내·외측 수위차에 비례하는 것으로 가정하고, 수위차 - 유량 관계식을 도출하였다. 수위차는 평택 조위관측소와 내항2공구 수역의 1분 간격 관측 조위로부터 산출하였고, 제체 통과 유량은 내측 조위(z, 평택항 DL 기준, m) - 수용적(V, 10⁶m³) 관계식으로 계산하였다. 내측 조위 - 수용적 관계식은 수심측량 성과로부터 V = 0.28z² + 3.73z + 2.96 (r²=1.00)으로 얻어졌다. 다양한 함수식의 적합성을 검토한 결과, 다음과 같은 수위차(𝚫z, m) - 제체 통과 유량(Q, m³/s) 관계식을 도출하였다. [내항가호안 내측으로 유입시] $Q_{IN}=\{\begin{array}{lll}{\exp}\{0.54\;{\ln}({\Delta}z)+6.00\}&&\text{; }{\Delta}z{\leq}1.8\\219.82{\Delta}z+158.56&&\text{; }{\Delta}z>1.8\end{array}\;\;(r^2=0.86)$ [내항가호안 외측으로 유출시] Q_OUT = -exp{0.44 ln(-𝚫z) + 5.70} (r²=0.59) 매 𝚫t 마다 제체 통과 유량을 계산하는 알고리즘을 Delft3D 소스 코드에 추가하고, 8개 분조 합성조석(M₂, S₂, K₁, O₁, N₂, K₂, P₁, Q₁)을 외력조건으로 설정하여 2개월간 조석 수치모델링을 수행하였다. 내항2공구 수역의 매 시별 조위 관측치와 모델치를 비교한 결과, 오차는 -0.37~0.37m의 범위이고, 오차 평균은 0.02m, 절대오차 평균은 0.08m로 상당히 정확하게 실시간 조위 변동을 모의하였다. 보정·검정된 이 모델을 이용하여 향후 내항2공구 개발에 따른 내측 조석과 내·외측 수위차 변화에 대한 예측모의를 진행할 예정이다.
