Microscope cell image is an important indicator for obtaining the biological information in a bio-informatics fields. Since human observers have been examining the cell image with microscope, a lot of time and high concentration are required to analyze cell images. Furthermore, It is difficult for the human eye to quantify objectively features in cell images. In this study, we developed HCS algorithm for automatic analysis of cell image using an OpenCV library. HCS algorithm contains the cell image preprocessing, cell counting, cell cycle and mitotic index analysis algorithm. We used human cancer cell (MKN-28) obtained by the confocal laser microscope for image analysis. We compare the value of cell counting to imageJ and to a professional observer to evaluate our algorithm performance. The experimental results showed that the average accuracy of our algorithm is 99.7%.

This paper describes an experimental study to examine collapse causes of the lifting cable due to brittle failure of an fitting anchor under the lifting works. Also, in this study an collapse mechanism that was obtained from stress analysis was compared with an actual collapse procedure. Fractographical analysis as well as chemical component test, tension test and Charpy V-Notch impact test for the fractured steel members were carried out. And then, its results were compared with that of normal steel members. Circumferential surface flaws were developed at internal facets of the fitting anchor before tensile stress occurred. Hence, a higher stress than nominal stress was occurred at flaws by stress concentration at the crack tip. Also, stress intensity factor of members increased by crack size of the potential flaws. Because the stress intensity factor at the crack tip was greater than critical values(fracture toughness), brittle fracture occurred under the lifting works. It is judged that the main collapse of the lifting cable is due to brittle fracture of the fitting anchor.

강우현상의 공간적 변동성에 대한 해석은 수자원 계획 및 관리를 위해 중요한 관심사가 되고 있다. 일반적으로 우리가 얻을 수 있는 강우자료는 한 지점에 설치되어 있는 우량계에 의한 관측된 지점강우량자료이다. 기존의 집중형 수문모형이 유출과정의 공간적인 분포 및 변화를 유역단위로 평균화해서 취급하는 개념기반의 모형임에 반해서 분포형 수문모형은 유역을 수문학적으로 균일한 매개변수를 갖는 소유역 또는 격자망으로 구분하여 적용하는 것으로, 도시화 등 토지이용의 변화나 기타 유역내의 물리적인 특성의 변화가 수문과정에 미치는 영향을 잘 모의할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 Vflo$^{TM}$ 분포형 강우-유출 모형과 IDW, Ordinary Kriging, Thiessen 등의 강우 분포 기법을 이용하여 낙동강 제 1지류인 금호강의 동촌 수위관측소 유역($1,544km^2$)을 출구로 하여 강우-유출모의를 하였다. 이를 위하여 강우-유출에 영향을 주는 매개변수를 선정하고 동촌 수위관측소의 실측 유량자료를 바탕으로 하여 IDW, Kriging, Thiessen 등의 면적강우량 산정방법별로 모형의 보정(2007, 2009) 및 검증(2010)을 실시하였다. 모의 된 유출량과 실측유량의 상관성은 결정계수 $R^2$에서 IDW 과 Kriging의 경우 0.95 ~ 0.99의 상관성을 나타냈으며 Thiessen 의 경우 0.94 ~ 0.99의 값을 나타냈다. Nash-Sutcliffe 모형효율은 IDW의 경우 0.95 ~ 0.98, Kriging의 경우 0.94 ~ 0.99를 나타냈으며 Thiessen의 경우는 0.90 ~ 0.98의 모형효율을 나타내었다. 이때 포화투수계수와 조도계수가 전체 유량과 첨두시간에 영향을 주었다. 호우사상을 선정하여 검보정을 실시 한 결과, 유역의 유출 모의를 수행하였을 때 선행강우량에 따라서 토양의 침투능에 영향을 많이 주고 있기 때문에, 선행 토양함수조건(Antecedent Moisture Condition: AMC)으로 분류한 뒤에 AMC 조건에 따라서 유출-모의를 수행하는 것이 타당하다고 판단된다.

An increase in heavy rainfall and floods have been observed over South Korea due to recent abnormal weather. In this perspective, the high-resolution weather forecasts have been widely used to facilitate flood management. However, these models are known to be biased due to initial conditions and topographical conditions in the process of model building. Theretofore, a bias correction scheme is largely applied for the practical use of the prediction to flood management. This study introduces a new mean field bias correction (MFBC) approach for the high-resolution numerical rainfall products, which is based on a Bayesian Kriging model to combine an interpolation technique and MFBC approach for spatial representation of the error. The results showed that the proposed method can reliably estimate the bias correction factor over ungauged area with an improvement in the reduction of errors. Moreover, it can be seen that the bias corrected rainfall forecasts could be used up to 72 hours ahead with a relatively high accuracy.

The domestic demand of natural gas has increased continuously due to the sudden rise of oil price and regulations on greenhouse gas to global warming. In order to improve the supply security of natural gas market in Korea, the agreement on supply of pipeline natural gas (PNG) in Russia was signed between Gazprom and Korea Gas Corporation in 2008. If the supply plan of Russian natural gas is realized, underground storage facilities would be required in order to balance supply and demand of natural gas because the gas demand is concentrated in the winter. This study investigated the safety of the storage facility in quantitative way considering several design parameters such as gas pressure, depth of the storage cavern, rock condition and in-situ horizontal stress ratio. Two dimensional stress analyses were conducted using axi- symmetry condition to examine the behavior of cavern depending upon suggested design parameters. Results showed that the factor of safety, defined as the ratio of 'shear strength'/'shear stress', was largely affected by the depth, rock class and gas pressure but was insensitive to the coefficient of lateral pressure(Ko).

The plywood for concrete form is regarded as a laminate plate composed of orthotropic materials and the flexural analysis is conducted by applying the laminate plate theory, in which the four edges of the plate is assumed to be simply supported and the concentric point lateral load is applied. The results of flexural experiment are compared with the theoretical ones. Theoretically predicted results coincide with experimental ones up to the point of deflection less than 1/4 of plate thickness. In addition, when the plywood is regarded as an isotropic plate for simple analysis, the geometric average of the elastic modulus measured in the direction parallel to the face grain (E₁₁) and perpendicular to the face grain (E₂₂) could be used for the elastic modulus of isotropic plate.

In this study, Matsuda formula used to evaluate the loads acting on the pillar was investigated and load reduction factor(${\alpha}$) was evaluated by numerical analysis to better apply for the design. From the results, normal stress was concentrated to one side due to excavation of preceding tunnel after construction of pillar. And 86.5% of maximum normal stress was revealed partly unequally when the ground was poor. By numerical analysis, $14{\sim}83%$ of total loads calculated by Matsuda formula decreased and then, from these results, load reduction factor(${\alpha}$) was estimated. From now on, stability and economic aspects could be guaranteed by applying the load reduction factor(${\alpha}$).

This study estimates the regional input-output table and GHG emissions in 2019 and then analyzes the economic effects of carbon taxes by region and industry in Korea. The GHG emission, emission coefficient, and emission induction coefficient are estimated to be higher in manufacturing-oriented metropolitan provinces. The GHG emission coefficient in the same industry varies from region to region, which might reflect the standard of product classification, characteristics of production technology, and the regional differences in input structure. If a carbon tax is imposed, production costs are expected to increase and demand and production will decrease, especially in the manufacturing industry, which emits more GFG. On the other hand, the impact of carbon taxes on each region is not expected to vary significantly from region to region, which might be due to the fact that those differences are mitigated by industry-related effects. Since the impact of carbon taxes is expected to spread to the entire region, close cooperation between local governments is necessary in the process of implementing carbon neutrality in the future.

Temporal and spatial variations of precipitation in South Korea are investigated using 60 observation data of the recent 30-years from 1976 to 2005. The area averaged annual precipitation amount is about 1310 mm and shows a strong spatial variation, maximum at the southern and Kyoungki province (>1300 mm) and minimum at the Kyungpook province(<1100 mm). The precipitation days show a strong spatial variation with maximum at the Sobaik mountain region(>100 days) and minimum at the Kyungpook province (<90 days). The interannual variations (IAV) of precipitation amount and days are more significant at the southern and eastern part of Sobaik and Taebaik mountain, and along the Sobaik mountain, respectively. So, the difference of annual precipitation amount reaches to about 800mm between wet and dry years at the southern part of Korean peninsula. Whereas, the IAV of precipitation intensity is strong at the southern and middle part of South Korea with a minimum between two maxima. Also, seasonal variations are closely linked with the geographic environments (elevation, distance from ocean, location relative to the Taebaik mountain). Therefore, maximum and minimum of seasonal variations of precipitation are occurred at the northern inland region (ratio of summer to the annual precipitation (RSAP) is greater than 60%), eastern and southern coastal regions (RSAP is less than 53%),respectively. And the RSAP is slightly increased from 50% to 55% comparing the Ho and Kang (1988). The consistent and strong positive relation between the heavy rainfalls, the ratio of heavy rainfalls to annual precipitation and the annual precipitation indicates that heavy rainfall is more frequent and strong at the maximum annual precipitation region.

This study aims to investigate the influence of engagement of augmented reality game on immersion. The relationship between engagement and flow was examined through the mediating effects of emotional attachment and focus of attention on presence and the mediating effects of presence on flow. In order to verify the research hypothesis, online questionnaire was conducted with the consent of $Pok\acute{e}mon$ Go game user group. The questionnaire items were translated from the Augmented Reality Immersion Questionnaire. A total of 200 questionnaires were collected and used for analysis. Using the SPSS 23.0 program and the Mplus 7.0 program, the reliability of the scale was confirmed through the Cronbach's coefficient and the causal relationship and the mediating effects were verified by path analysis. As a result, there was no direct causal relationship between engagement and flow. However, causal relationship was evident when emotional attachment and focus of attention were mediated in the process of engagement in augmented reality game. In conclusion, systematic explanations of participant's emotional attachment and attentional state as a main factor in the process of participating in the augmented reality game involvement, reveal the elements to be noticed by the augmented reality game.
