Intensity-Duration-Frequency (IDF) curve that is essential to calculate rainfall quantiles for designing hydraulic structures in Korea is generally formulated by regression analysis. In this study, IDF curve derived by the cumulative distribution function ("IDF by CDF") of the proper probability distribution function (PDF) of each site is suggested, and the corresponding parameters of IDF curve are computed using genetic algorithm (GA). For this purpose, IDF by CDF and the conventional IDF derived by regression analysis ("IDF by REG") were computed for 22 Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) rainfall recording sites. Comparisons of RMSE (root mean squared error) and RRMSE (Relative RMSE) of rainfall intensities computed from IDF by CDF and IDF by REG show that IDF by CDF is more accurate than IDF by REG. In order to accommodate the effect of the recent intensive rainfall of Korea, the rainfall intensities computed by the two IDF curves are compared with that by at-site frequency analysis using the rainfall data recorded by 2006, and the result from IDF by CDF show the better performance than that from IDF by REG. As a result, it can be said that the suggested IDF by CDF curve would be the more efficient IDF curve than that computed by regression analysis and could be applied for Korean rainfall data.

In this paper, we propose the pattern classification algorithm of recognizing wrist movements based on electromyogram(EMG) to raise the recognition rate. We consider 30 characteristics of EMG signals wirh the root mean square(RMS) and the difference absolute standard deviation value(DASDV) for the extraction of precise features from EMG signals. To get the groups of each wrist movement, we estimated 2-dimension features. On this basis, we divide each group into two parts with mean to compare and promote the recognition rate of pattern classification effectively. For the motion classification based on EMG, the k-nearest neighbor(k-NN) is used. In this paper, the recognition rate is 92.59% and 0.84% higher than the study before.

In this paper, we propose the heuristic signal grouping algorithm to estimate channel state value over full blind communication situation which means that there is no information about the modulation scheme and the channel state information between the transmitter and the receiver. Hereafter, using the constellation rotation method and the probability density function(pdf) the modulation scheme is determined to perform automatic modulation classification(AMC). Furthermore, the modulation type and a channel state value estimation capability is evaluated by comparing the proposed scheme with other conventional techniques from the simulation results in terms of the symbol error rate(SER) and the root mean square error (RMSE).

본 연구는 비부착 긴장재를 갖는 부재에 대한 일련의 연구중 두 번째에 해당한다. 첫 번째 연구(1)에서는 기존연구의 제안식과 현행의 ACI 규준의 문제점을 고찰하고 기존의 총 167개 실험결과와 비교·분석하였다. 본 연구에서는 소성힌지 길이 개념과 변형도 적합조건에 의해서 비부착 긴장재의 응력을 평가할 수 있는 방법에 대한 검토를 통하여, 새로운 설계식을 제안하였다. 이는 이론적인 분석에 의한 변수설정과 기존 실험결과를 이용한 중회귀분석법을 사용하였다. 그리고 제안된 설계식을 기존의 식들과 비교하여 좋은 결과를 얻었으며, 제안된 설계식의 특성을 다음과 같이 설명하였다. (1)비부착 긴장재의 응력산정시 유효프리스트레스, 일반철근의 양, 작용하중의 형태 등은 중요한 변수로 작용할 수 있으므로 설계식에 고려하는 것이 바람직하다. (2)비부착 긴장재의 응력산정식은 현행 ACI 규준식과는 다르게 fc'/ p항의 제곱근과 비례하는 함수관계에 있다. (3)스팬-춤비가 비부착 긴장재의 응력에 미치는 영향은 소성힌지 길이의 개념에 의해서 역학적으로 타당하게 설명할 수 ldT다.

A new method to estimate the mean areal precipitation using kriging is developed. Unlike the conventional approach, points for double and quadruple numerical integrations in the kriging equation are selected randomly, given the boundary of area of interest. This feature eliminates the conventional approach's necessity of dividing the area into subareas and calculating the center of each subarea, which in turn makes the developed method more powerful in the case of complex boundaries. The algorithm to select random points within an arbitrary boundary, based on the theory of complex variables, is described. The results of Monte Carlo simulation showed that the error associated with estimation using randomly selected points is inversely proportional to the square root of the number of sampling points.

본 연구에서는 미국 맥도날드 천문대 (Mcdonald Observatory)에 있는 82인치 Otto Struve 망원경의 가이드 망원경으로 사용하기 위해 2개의 반사경을 이용해 구경이 100 mm이고 유효초점거리가 800 mm인 비축 반사망원경을 설계하였다. 비축 반사경은 일반적인 축 대칭인 반사경보다 가공이 매우 어렵기 때문에 형상 정밀도의 요구량을 알 수 있다면 비축 반사경을 가공하는 과정에서 시간과 비용을 절약할 수 있다. 광학계가 수차가 잘 보정된 회절한계의 성능이기 때문에 엔서클드 에너지 직경(Encircled Energy Diameter) 분석을 통해 민감도 분석을 하였다. 광학설계 소프트웨어인 CodeV를 사용하여 80 % 에너지가 $20{\mu}m$ 내에 들도록 공차한계로 설정하였으며, 기준 파장은 $587.56{\mu}m$이다. 또한 부경과 초점 면 사이의 거리를 보상자로 설정하여 공차가 광학계의 성능에 미치는 영향을 최소화하였다. 민감도 분석은 반사경의 위치, 회전, 그리고 반사경의 형상 정밀도에 대해 수행하였다. 분석 결과, 반사경의 위치와 각도는 일반적인 제작 및 조립 공차보다 매우 작은 것을 확인하였다. 그리고 형상정밀도는 주경이 부경보다 민감하였으며 자승 제곱 평균제곱근 (root-mean-square) 32 nm로 가장 민감한 결과가 나왔다.

Quasi-two dimensional numerical model (GSTARS) was applied to determine the optimal sediment discharge formula for simulating the sedimentologic characteristics of Hyeongsan river. The field measurements have been conducted to obtain the data, such as sediment discharge, bed material, and channel geometry, for model calibration and verification. The sediment discharge formulas, which have been generally used, have been assessed according to the average error, relative error, RMSE, RRMSE, discrepancy ratio and Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency coefficient for bed changes along the thalweg. From the results, Laursen formula(1958) shows the best performance to simulate the long-term bed change of Hyeongsan river.

Numerical calculations have been carried out for the mixed convection flow in a concentric curved annulus with constant heat flux boundary condition at inner wall. The flow is assumed to be fully developed so as to maintain a constant streamwise pressure and temperature gradient. Computations have been performed for flows of radius ratio 0.2 and 0.5 with the Dean number lying in the range 0$K^{1/2}$ for the wide range of the Dean number considered here.

A PAEM(Pneumatic Active Engine Mount) system has been developed to improve NVH performance of a SUV in idle state. Control objective to attenuate the vibration of a vehicle should be determined prior to the design of control algorithm. This study presents the correlation analysis of output variables of PAEM system by means of TPA(Transfer Path Analysis) using experimental data obtained by vehicle test. The analysis results show that the vibration of vertical direction is more serious than those of longitudinal and lateral direction of the vehicle, and that the correlation between the vibration of front seat rail and that of steer wheel is highest. In conclusion, the vibrations of front seat rail and steer wheel in vertical direction should be considered as the control objectives of the PAEM.

Acoustic Emission (AE) technology is an effective nondestructive testing for continuous monitoring of defect formation and failures in structural materials. This paper presents a source location model using Acoustic Emission (AE) sensors in a Pre-Stressed Concrete (PSC) beam and the evaluation of the model was performed through lab experiments. 54 AE events were made on the surface of the 5m-PSC beam using a Schmidt Hammer and arrival times were measured with 7AE sensors. The source location f3r each event was estimated using least squares. The results were compared with actual positions and the RMSE (Root Mean Square Errors) was about 2cm.
