A model describing the distribution of contaminants in soil/water systems for the application of soil-washing technology using surfactant was developed. The model simulation was conducted for screening the best surfactant, evaluating the effect of water dose, and optimizing soil-washing methodology. Naphthalene, phenanthrene, and pyrene as target compounds and Triton X-l00, Tergitol NP-10, Igepal CA-720, and Brij 30 as surfactants were used in the model simulations. The washing efficiency was not greatly enhanced by increasing water dose with the same total surfactant dose. The approach of successive washings was more efficient than a single washing with the same amount of water and surfactant. Equal allotment of the amount of water and surfactant was the best condition for the successive washings. The model can be applied for the optimal design of the soil washing process without extra experimental efforts.

Genetic Algorithms are robust search and optimization techniques but have some problems such as premature convergence and convergence to local extremum. As population diversity converges to low value, the search ability decreases and converges to local extremum but population diversity converges to high value, then the search ability increases and converges to global optimum or genetic algorithm may diverge. To guarantee that genetic algorithms converge to the global optima, the genetic operators should be chosen properly. In this paper, we propose the genetic operators with the hybrid function of the average Hamming distance and the fitness value to maintain the diversity of the GA's population for escaping from the premature convergence. Results of simulation studies verified the effects of the mutation operator for maintaining diversity and the other operators for improving convergence properties as well as the feasibility of using proposed genetic operators on convergence properties to avoid premature convergence and convergence to local extremum.

The USNRC issued a revised ECCS rule that allows the use of best estimate computer codes for safety analysis. The rule also requires an estimation of uncertainty in calculated system response when applying the best estimate computer codes. A practical realistic evaluation methodology to evaluate the ECCS performance that satisfies the requirements of the ECCS rule has been developed and this paper describes the application of new realistic evaluation methodology to large break LOCA for, the demonstration of the new methodology. The computer code RELAP5/MOD3/KAERI, which was improved from RELAP5/MOD3.1, was used as the best estimate code in the application. The uncertainty of the code was evaluated by assessing several separate and integral effect tests, and for the application to actual plant Kori 3 & 4 was selected as the reference plant. Response surfaces for blowdown and reflood PCTs were generated from the results of the sensitivity analyses and probability distribution functions were established by random sampling or Monte-Carlo method for each response surface. Final uncertainties were quantified at 95% probability level and safety margins for large break LOCA were discussed.

The aim of this research was to track the appropriate path favorable to urban development when finding small streams which had been destroyed during the process of urbanization and restoring the streams to a natural flow. This research located the targeted streams in the urban area by using GIS, and designated 3 main factors in restoring small streams: altitude, the usage of land, and land prices. After analyzing the possibilities and outcomes of each factor, the study found the most suitable remedy reflecting those 3 factors. Since there are various effects on stream restoration, based on these 3 factors, the study found and used the most viable factor in accordance with its importance. Using this template, the study developed a method to track the most appropriate restoration path. The study results will contribute to finding, and the restoration of disappeared streams for making more pleasant urban life and an environmentally-friendly city.

Typically the standard optimal allocation method distributes the sample for each stratum considering survey cost. In case of varying survey cost for each survey unit, we need to consider more practical allocation method. In other words, according to characteristics of an individual unit, we consider the optimal dynamic allocation method which first selects the survey unit having maximum value of benefit cost ratio. In terms of this, the proposed allocation method is different from standard optimal allocation method which allocate samples for each stratum and selects the random sample according to each size of sample. This paper is considered the dynamic optimal allocation method for the stratified randomized response technique which surveys for sensitive characteristic of survey units such as drug abuse, abortion, alcoholic. We prove the practical usefulness of proposed method using the numerical example.

도시유역에서의 일반적인 우수관거 설계 및 기존의 연구들은 수리학적 조건을 만족시키는 범위 내에서 최소의 비용을 위한 관거 설계에 초점을 맞추어왔다. 그러나 최적의 우수관거 설계는 우수관거의 근본적 목적인 내수배제를 최대화 하고자 하는 것이며, 이것은 관망 구성에 따른 시스템 내 유입 수문곡선들 간의 중첩효과를 제어함으로써 가능하다. 본 연구에서는 관내 흐름의 변화를 관망의구성에 따라서 제어될 수 있는 목적함수로서 다루고 있는 이정호(2010)의 우수관망 최적설계 모형에 대하여 각기 다른 유역 특성을 나타내는 실제 도시유역에서의 적용성을 검토하였다. 본 연구에서 이용한 최적 우수관망 노선 결정 모형은 이정호(2010)가 개발한 모형으로 도시유역에서의 우수관망의 노선 결정을 유출구 첨두유출량 최소화를 목적으로 최적화기법을 이용한 모형이다. 이정호(2010)는 개발된 모형을 통하여 관망 노선을 결정한 결과 설계빈도를 초과하는 강우에 대해서 내수침수 발생이 저감되는 효과를 가져올 수 있음을 분석하였다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 이정호(2010)의 모형에 대한 적용성을 검증하기 위하여 각기 다른 유역 특성을 갖는 실제 도시유역들에 대하여 해당 모형을 적용하였다. 이때 유역의 특성은 지표유출 및 첨두유출량에 지배적인 영향을 미치는 유역의 지표 경사에 대하여 고려되었다. 적용된 도시유역은 총 3개 배수분구로서 평균 지표 경사는 0.008, 0.006, 0.002로 각기 높은 경사, 보통 경사 및 완만한 경사 지대를 염두에 둔 유역 선정에 해당한다. 이에 따라 각 유역에 대하여 우수관망 노선을 최적화한 결과 설계빈도의 강우지속기간 30분 강우에 대하여 현재의 관망 대비 최적화된 관망에서의 첨두유출량 저감 비율은 지표경사 0.008인 유역에서는 약 7%, 지표경사 0.006인 유역에서는 약 17%, 지표경사 약 0.002인 유역에서는 약 8%로 나타났다. 따라서 본 연구결과 유역의 경사 특성에 따른 최적 우수관망을 통한 첨두유출량의 저감 비율간에는 상관관계를 정의할 수 없으며, 단지 우수관망에서의 노선 변경이 가능한 맨홀 지점이 어떤 중요한 지점에 얼마나 위치하느냐에 따라 달라지게 되는 것으로 분석되었다.

Aerodynamic analysis(DATCOM) and radar cross section(RCS) analysis(POFACETS) were integrated for the air-to-surface missile concept design using a design framework. The missile geometry was defined based on the CAD(CATIA) for synchronizing the manufacturing with design processes. Aero/RCS analyses were linked with the CAD process under the ModelCenter framework in order to receive the geometry data automatically. The missile design baseline configuration was selected from ROC(requirement of capability). Then the RCS minimization was performed subject to thelargerthebetter constraint of the missile lift-to-drag ratio. This study demonstrated that various design strategies can be performed efficiently about many missile configurations using this design framework in the missile conceptual design phase.

Space frame structures are included in the large spatial structures and can adopt various structure types. But, it is not easy to choose the optimal member size and shape because it depends on the structural engineer's experience and the repeated trial and error. Therefore, in this study, the final goal is to help the designer with the selection of the optimum shape. First, various space frame structures with ellipse dome and vault complex types are chosen and the shape generation method is considered to generate the nodes, coordinates and members. In optimal design process of space frame structure, each node coordinate changes according to height variation or the number of rings. Therefore, the auto generation technique of nodes and members is required in order to consider this phenomenon in optimal design process. Next, the shape generation module is created, base on the shape generation method. This module is connected with the analysis module and the optimization algorithm. Finally, the example model is presented for the evaluation of the efficiency of optimization algorithms.

Fuzzy theory is used to quantify some subjective criteria and consider uncertain factors for transmission line reinforcement planning in this paper. Sugeno's fuzzy integral is also used in the proposed method, because it can be easily allied to multi attribute decision making problems such as power system planning. To verify the proposed algorithm, some bode-neck lines are searched for the case that the amount of Maximal Load Supplying Capability(MLSC) is small using the results of contingency analysis for Korea Electric Power Corporation(KEPCO)'s 345[kV] transmission line in 1998. And several feasible alternatives are composed for line reinforcement which can dissolve the bottle-neck.

도시지역에서는 이상강우, 돌발홍수와 더불어 급속한 도시화에 따라 침수 발생의 위험성이 증가하고 있다. 지자체에서는 빗물펌프장, 지하저류조 등을 이용하여 적극적으로 침수대책을 강구하고 있지만, 저지대 침수피해는 계속적으로 발생하고 있다. 2013년 7월 서울 경기북부 강원영서에 발생한 집중호우로 1명이 사망하고 피해액은 94,036백만원이 발생하였다. 춘천시 효자동 저지대지역의 주택침수는 인근 하천의 수위가 높아져 내수배제 및 하수도 처리 능력이 부족하여 침수가 발생하였다. 2014년 8월 경남지역에 발생한 집중호우로 2명 사망하였고, 피해액은 134,158백만원에 이르렀으며, 도시화 토지피복변화로 인한 홍수량이 증가하여 피해가 가중되었다. 이에 따라 도시 내 정확한 도시유출 및 침수해석을 통하여 과거 침수양상을 재현하고 앞으로 발생할 수 있는 침수피해를 방지할 수 있도록 침수 예 경보 시스템을 개발하여 도시침수에 대비하고 도시주민들의 인명과 재산피해를 경감하는데 그 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 도시지역의 관망해석에 적합한 모형을 선택하여야 하며, 그 모형의 매개변수를 결정하여야 한다. 도시유출해석 및 관망해석을 위하여 SWMM 모형을 선정해서 유역분할조건, 매개변수에 대한 최적 검정과정을 제시하여, 1D-2D 연계모형을 통해서 침수지역예측의 정확도를 증대시키고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 서울시 강남역 주변 일대의 5개 배수분구을 대상으로 도시유출해석을 위한 최적화 모의를 위하여 1D-2D모형의 연계해석하였다. 실제 강우사상을 적용하여 매개변수와 소유역 개수를 달리하여 자동최적화기법인 PEST를 이용하여 최적인자를 도출하여, 실제 배수맨홀의 수위관측 자료를 이용하여 비교 보정을 하였다. 도시유출해석뿐만 아니라 내수침수시의 최적인자 도출을 위해 2차원 범람해석을 통하여 NDMS 자료를 이용하여 비교 보정을 한 뒤 다른 강우사상을 이용하여 검증을 하여 도시침수 해석의 정확도를 개선을 위한 최적인자들을 검토하였다.
