Korea's first X-band SAR satellite KOMPSAT-5 has been launched in 2013, so the research related to the X-band SAR satellite image is required to increase the utilization of KOMPSAT-5. In this study, we generated a DEM(Digital Elevation Model) using X-band SAR satellite images based on three methods which are InSAR, radargrammetry and RPC(Rational Polynomial Coefficients), and evaluated the performance of each methods. The four stripmap mode TerraSAR-X images taken in Daejeon were used to generate DEM, and accuracy was evaluated using DEM by IKONOS RPC. As results, DEM produced by the InSAR showed the highest accuracy. Also, we knew that RPC could be effective method if you want to create a large area DEM which contains the various elevation.

This study deals with the spatio-temporal change of land cover and vegetation distribution between 1988 and 2001 using remote sensing images and CIS techniques in west area of Pyeongbuk Province, northwest Korea. Landsat TM and ETM images are geometrically and radiometrically corrected for the analysis of land cover and NDVI. Forested areas are decreased during 13 year from 1988 to 2001 in study area including Sakju, Daegwan, Guseong and Euiju of Pyeongbuk Province, because wasteland are increased by human impact and denuded land by landslide and flooding. DEM analysis presents that settlement and cropland are developed toward higher and steeper mountain slope, together with decrease NDIV values. these changes have resulted from unplanned increase of cropland without consideration of geomorphic condition. Therefore, more researches and reasonable policies are required to protect forest and cropland and stable food supply against natural hazard like landslide.

The air pollutants from vehicle exhaust gas are affected by many factors including fuel qualities, engine and vehicle technologies, driving patterns. In particular, fuel qualities and after-treatment devices could directly affect the emission level of pollutants. The pollutant reduction characteristics that caused by enforced fuel quality standard were analyzed. Three types of test fuel were selected in accordance with Korean automotive fuel standard in 2006, 2009, 2012 and used for vehicle emission test in chassis dynamometer. European COPERT correction equation of fuel impact was considered as reference information to quantify the vehicle emission test results. The contribution rates of exhaust emission by COPERT correction equation showed that aromatic compounds and oxygen contents in gasoline fuel was most important. In case of diesel fuel, cetane index and polycyclic aromatic compounds accounted for the greater part. The exhaust emission effects by COPERT correction equation revealed that CO and VOC was increased 0.86%, 1.57% respectively in after 2009 gasoline when compared to before 2009 gasoline fuel. In case of light-duty diesel vehicle CO, VOC and PM were decreased in range of 3~7%. The result from this study could be provided for developing future fuel standards and be used to fundamental information for Korean clean air act.

The effect of payload on fuel consumption and emission of light duty freight truck during acceleration driving has been analyzed. Running tests were carried out with various payload conditions on chassis dynamometer. A typical driving pattern for urban cities was used. Real time emission measurement systems for gaseous and soot emission were utilized to investigate the real time dynamic of fuel use and exhaust emissions. It was observed that fuel use and pollutant emissions were increased as payload was increased. Under the same payload condition, the increased amount of acceleration driving is much higher than that of steady state driving. The results demonstrated the advantages of eco-driving, which is an environmentally friendly driving manner, could be emphasized in heavier payload condition. Inertial tractive power was introduced for considering the parameters affecting emission during acceleration driving, which are speed, acceleration and payload. Fuel use and emission in various driving conditions were expressed as functions of inertial tractive power. The estimated result by these functions well predicted measured result within 10 % deviation.

일반적으로 하천은 오랫동안 장기간의 변화를 겪으며 안정되어 있다. 산사태나 홍수 등 자연적인 변화뿐 아니라 댐이나 교량 등 인위적인 변화에 따라 흐름이나 유사량이 변하게 되며 이런 동적변형상태를 복원하는 과정에서 침식과 퇴적이 반복적으로 이루어져 대규모 하상변동이 이루어지게 된다. 이러한 하천에서 발생하는 대규모의 하상변동에는 일반적으로 1차원 해석이 적용된다. 하천의 일정 하도구간을 고려할 경우 구간의 상류단면으로부터 유입하는 유입토사량과 하류단면에서 유출되는 유출토사량과의 비에 따라 그 구간에는 하상상승(aggradation)및 하상저하(degradation)가 발생하게 되고 이것이 거시적 측면에서 하상변동이라 할 수 있다. 이러한 장기하상변동은 경우에 따라서 이수용도의 수문 혹은 취수구가 노출되거나, 교량의 교각에 국부세굴이 발생되어 붕괴위험이 생기는 등 심각한 문제가 발생할 수가 있다. 본 연구에서는 하상변동 예측 모형 중 신뢰성 및 적용성이 우수한 것으로 인식되고 있는 HEC-6 모형을 형산강수계에 적용하여 4가지 협착부 개선방안에 따른 장기하상변동에의 영향을 검토하고자 하였다. 하천기본계획상의 횡단면도와 유사량 실측값을 이용하여 유사모의 결과를 검증하고 2020년까지의 모형의 계산 값을 이용하여 4가지 대안에 따른 모의 결과와 원안의 결과와 비교 및 분석하였다. 모의한 결과 형산강의 하상변동치가 크지 않은 것은 형산강의 하상이 어느 정도 안정되어 있어 장기적인 하상변동이 크지 않기 때문이다. 따라서 협착부 개선에 따른 대안 1, 2, 3, 4의 하상이 크게 변하지 않음을 보였다. 지형 변화에 따른 장기하상변동에의 영향이 크지 않은 것을 확인할 수 있다.

In this study, design method for debris flow and drift wood dams used in Japan was evaluated to develop currently available design method practiced in Korea. In Japan, represented a similarity in the aspects of topography and the climate compared with Korea, casualties due to debris flow, landslide, and collapse of cliff as well as earthquake, have been reported every year. Especially, debris flow had often occurred during heavy rainy season rather than due to Typhoons or localized torrential thunderstorms. Since the characteristic of the debris flow reveals in the middle of water flow and soil behaviors, the behavior of debris flow associated with drift wood was not fully understood at this moment and therefore empirical design method to design debris flow dam is adopted in the practice and currently used in Japan. Based on the result of this study, modification of debris flow design method used in Korea are presented.

A mathematical model for the two-dimensional unsteady flow was developed by introducing Abbott's implicit finite difference operator and double sweep algorithm, which could be applied to simulate the respose of a harbor against the intrusion of long waves through the entrance connected to open sea. In order to improve its accuracy corresponding to the field phenomena, bottom resistance, Coriolis force, wind effect terms were included and wave direction and radiating effect was considered. The result of seiche test was always stable and the amplitude was accurate. Some phase shift was occured, but it could be reduced by using small values of Courant number and many points per a wave length as well. A comparision with the Ippen and Goda's theoritical and hydraulic experimental works was fulfilled.

The narrow interal grid is effective in accuracy, but it is not able to make a densely grided sample, so that smoothing is requared. In digital elevation models, an application of the finite elements method is effective to smooth the undesired noise which is generated in aquisition of elevation data. And this is one of the simple and direct method to solve the problem for discontinuity of terrain. Therefore, the finite elements method is applied to study. In digital elevation model by appling the finite element, smoothing is affected by the height weight. In this study, the relation equation between elevation weight and standard deviation of smoothing was obstained as Y = 1900625 $X^4-312987.6$ $X^3+20330.72$ $X^2-578.6029$ X+12.63772 and from this function, Optimum elevation weight is 0.05.

A new High Resolution Geometry or HRG imaging instrument is developed by CNES to be carried on-board SPOT 5. The HRG instrument offers a higher ground resolution than that of the HRV/HRVIR on SPOT 1 - 4 satellites. The field width of HRG is 60 km, same as SPOT constellation. With two HRG instruments, a maximum swath of 120 km at 5 m resolution can be achieved. The generation of Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) from satellite stereo images scores over conventional methods of DEM generation using topographic maps and aerial photographs. This global availability of satellite images allows for quicker data processing for an equivalent area. In this study, a HRG stereo images of SPOT 5 over JECHEON has been used with Leica Photogrammetry Suite OrthoBASE Pro tool for the creation of a digital elevation model (DEM). The extracted DEM was compared to the reference DEM obtained from the contours of digital topographic map.
