In recent years, the crisis of energy is growing seriously and also the contamination of ecology has been reverberated as international problem. The social concerns on energy crisis have been growing for the last several years and also the interests in new and renewable energy have been increased. Therefore, in order to solving these problems, as solution of one, this paper is investigated using the aeration system at the fish farm, etc from nature energy such as wind power. This study suggests the fundamental data of designing for these similar apparatus and examines the parameters of wind velocity and wind receiving area. Especially, the water outlet position was mainly investigated with optimum outlet angle of wind pump.

During hot air drying of root vegetables such as radish and sweet potatoes, shrinkage and casehardening occurred, and thereby the quality change appeared. Therfore the hot air drying apparatus in which air temperature, relative humidity and air velocity could be controlled was designed, and the drying and shrinking characteristics of radish and sweet potatoes were studied. Also the external factors that affected these characteristics were investigated. The whole drying process of radish and sweet potatoes could be divided into four different drying rate periods, namely constant rate period, first falling rate period, second falling rate period (a) and (b). The shrinking rate curve consisted of four periods nearly corresponding to drying rate periods. The shrinking rate slowly increased in the constant rate period, rapidly increased in the first falling rate period, and reached the highest value in the early period of the second falling rate period. The surface shrinkage was greatly affected by the thickness of sample, relative humidity and initial moisture content. The shrinking ratio was increased with decreasing thickness and increasing relative humidity and initial moisture content.

The conceptual structural design consists of selecting structural material and form of the building, producing a preliminary dimensional layout. The information such as height of the building use, typical live load, wind velocity, design acceleration, maximum lateral deflection, span, story height is a important factor in conceptual design phase. In this case, the knowledge solutions for past similar problems cam be used in the process of defining and finding a solution to the design problems. In this paper, the conceptual structural design method using case-based reasoning which is intended to assist engineers in the conceptual phase of the structural design of tall buildings is introduced. Inductive retrieval method and nearest-neighbor retrieval method are used for selecting structural system and similar design case, respectively.

Recently, big data analysis based on machine learning has gained popularity and many machine learning techniques have been applied to the field of agriculture. By using machine learning technique to analyze huge number of samples of biological and environmental data, new observations can be found. In this research, we consider the estimation of proportional daily weight increase (PDWI) based on measurement data from experimental swine farm. In order to derive the exact formulation for PDWI estimation, we have used measured value of mean, daily maximum, daily minimum of temperature, humidity, CO2, wind speed and measured PDWI values. Based on collected data, we have derived equation for PDWI estimation using tree-based algorithm. In the derived formulation, we have found that the daily average temperature is the most dominant factor that affects PDWI. Our results can be applied to pig farms to estimate the PDWI of swine.

In this paper, the wind-induced response characteristics of freeform shaped tall building is studied by using FSI analysis. The analytical models are twist shaped ones at representing type of atypical tall building, and this study focused on the relationship between twist angle and wind acceleration. Firstly, 1-way FSI analysis is performed, so maximum lateral displacement of the analytical model for 100 years return period wind speed is calculated, then the elastic modulus of a structure that satisfies the constraints condition is evaluated. And 2-way FSI analysis is carried out. so acceleration of the analytical model for the evaluated modulus of elasticity and arbitrary density is predicted through time history analysis. The basic model is a set of a square shape, height is 400m, slenderness ratio is 8, and twist model is rotated at square model from 0 to 90 degrees at intervals of 15 degrees and from 90 to 360 degrees at intervals of 90 degrees. According to the result of predicting wind acceleration by the shape of each model, the wind vibration effect of square shape model is confirmed to be sensitive more than a twist shape ones.

In this study, the characteristics of main wind direction, vertical temperature and wind speed profile near the Moseulpo airfield for HALE UAV(High Altitude Long Endurance Unmaned Aerial Vehicle) is investigated. The results are summarized as follows, main wind direction is governed by air mass according to season and local wind such as land-sea breeze. The directions of landing and take-off of HALE UAV will be selected as the south-east direction in June ~ August, north-west direction in October ~ March, and south-east direction at daytime in April ~ May, September. Annual variation of temperature at 100 hPa showed that temperature in summer season is lower than winter season. On the other hands, wind speed at 250 hPa in winter season is higher than summer season. The threshold values of temperature and wind speed for HALE UAV flight are $-75^{\circ}C$ and $90ms^{-1}$, which were determined by 5 % frequency value($1.96{\sigma}$), respectively.

Until recently, we use only weekly and monthly adjustment factors in order to estimate the AADT. By the way. we can suppose that the traffic is time series data related to flow of time. So we tried to analyse traffic patterns using time series analysis and apply them to estimate the AADT. We could divide traffic patterns into trend, cyclic variation, seasonal variation and irregular variation like as time series data. Also, in order to reduce random error components, we have looked for the weather conditions as an influential factor. There are many weather conditions such as rainfalls, but, temperatures, and sunshine hours among others but we selected rainfalls and lowest temperatures. And then, we have estimated the AADT using time series factors. To compare the results of, we have applied both irregular variation joined to weather factors and that not joined to. RMSE and U-test were opted at methods to appreciate results of AADT estimation.

In the area of the Far East Asia, cyclones are observed 157ea in winter season during the years(1966-1974). Some of them are most difficult to be forecasted due to the extreme irregulalities, have carried out synoptic analysis. The rapid development of cyclones can be attributed to the descending of cold air mass surrounding the axis of the Jet Stream due to the cyclonic rotation, and the lowering of the Jet axis. The Relationships between upper trough line and max. (or min) axis of upper air temperature on the 700mb contributes to the development of the cyclones.

This study is intended to understand mass loss rate and air entrainment rate of the whirl fire by height of fire source. Liquid fuels were methanol and n-Heptane which are used in many studies of whirl fire. Size of vessel was 100 mm ${\times}$ 100 mm ${\times}$ 50 mm and the vessel was made by stainless steel. When height of fire source changed from 0 cm to 30 cm, air entrainment rate showed the fastest in case of 0 cm. And in the same height of fire source, average and maximum air entrainment rate showed the fastest in 30 cm of anemometer. From the results of whirl fire for methanol and n-Heptane, mass loss rate and air entrainment rate of n-Heptane was found to faster 1.33 to 1.58 times and 4.38 to 5.44 times compared with methanol, respectively. Consequently, mass loss rate and air entrainment rate in whirl fire was able to identified decrease as height of fire source increases and the higher the heating value, increases the that's value.

Topographic changes in the foredune in Sohwang-ri, Boryeong, Chungnam Province was analyzed over the last two years. Seven cross-sections and one permanent plot ($20m{\times}50m$) were periodically studied based on erosion and deposition measurement, in addition to vegetation monitoring and measurement of wind using an automatic weather station. The sand dunes usually grew from late winter to spring and the growth occurred in a period of strong northwesterly winds. From March to April, heavy sedimentation was observed on the front section of the foredune and sand piled up to ca. 30cm to the ca. 25m landward from the high tide line. It is likely that increased wind force and growth of vegetation played a major role in transportation and sedimentation of sand. Meanwhile, the lower part of the sand dunes was eroded when typhoon and spring tide caused a rise in sea level. The transition zone of beach and dune was usually affected by sea water but some frontal slopes were entirely influenced, resulting in dune scarps. The eroded scarps were naturally restored to their original state as time passed.
