첨두홍수량 자료는 홍수예경보 및 치수계획수립 등 하천관리에 있어서 매우 중요한 요소이다. 그러나 대규모 홍수가 발생 시 악천후가 동반된 기상상황이나, 현장 접근이 어려운 환경적 조건과 예산 및 인력 부족 등에 의한 불가피한 문제로 첨두홍수량을 측정하는데 어려움 있다. 따라서 일반적으로 수위-유량관계곡선식을 이용하여 첨두홍수량을 산정하지만 단순 고수위 외삽 추정을 통해 개발된 곡선식을 이용한 첨두홍수량 산정에 있어서는 주의가 필요하다. 이러한 경우 홍수가 지나간 후 현장조사를 통해 획득한 위치, 표고, 횡단면적 등 홍수흔적(flood marks)을 가지고 경사면적법(slope-area method)과 같은 간접적인 방법으로 첨두홍수량을 추정할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 2018년 큰 호우사상이 발생한 내성천의 지류인 서천의 영주시(월호교) 지점과 남강의 산청군(하촌리) 지점에서 홍수흔적 조사를 통해 지점별 두 개의 단면을 선정하였다. 영주시(월호교) 지점의 두 단면 간 거리는 약 90m, 높이차는 약 0.21m로 조사되었고, 산청군(하촌리) 지점의 두 단면 간 거리는 약 330m, 높이차는 약 0.47m로 조사되었다. 경사면적법을 이용한 첨두 홍수량 추정에 적용된 조도계수는 '서천 하천기본계획(2014)', '남강 하천기본계획(2013)'에서 계획 홍수량 산정에 적용된 조도계수 0.029와 0.025를 적용하였다. 영주시(월호교) 지점은 2018년 9월 4일 발생한 호우사상의 첨두수위 5.59m에서 수위-유량관계곡선식을 이용하여 산정된 유량은 $1,127.8m^3/s$이고 경사면적법을 이용하여 추정된 유량은 $1,105.9m^3/s$로 약 -1.98%의 편차율이 발생하였다. 산청군(하촌리) 지점은 2018년 8월 26일 발생한 호우사상의 첨두수위 6.75m에서 수위-유량관계곡선식을 이용하여 산정된 유량은 $3,435.0m^3/s$이고 경사면적법을 이용하여 추정된 유량은 $3,233.3m^3/s$로 약 -6.24%의 편차율이 발생하였다. 경사면적법을 이용하여 추정된 첨두홍수량은 수위-유량관계곡선식을 이용하여 산정된 유량과 편차율이 지점별 ${\pm}10%$ 이내의 근사한 범위로 산정되었다. 따라서 경사면적법을 이용한 첨두홍수량 추정 방법의 적용에 있어서 적절한 것으로 판단된다.

This study aims to develop a framework to estimate mobile source emissions with the macroscopic travel demand model including enhanced estimates of intra-zonal travel emissions using Space Syntax analysis. It is acknowledged that "the land-use and transportation interaction model explains the influence of urban structure on accessibility and mobility pattern". Based upon this theory, the estimation model of intra-zonal travel emissions is presented with the models of total travel distance, total travel demand, and average travel speed of intra-zonal trips. Thess statistical models include several spatial indices derived from the Space Syntax analysis. It explains that urban spatial structure is a critical factor for intra-zonal travel emissions, which is lower in compact zone with smaller portion of land area, lower sprawl indicator, and more grid-type of road network. Also the suggested framework is applied in the evaluation of the effectiveness of bicycle lane project in Suwon, Korea. The estimated emissions including intra-zonal travel is as double as the results only with inter-zonal demands, which shows better performance of the suggested framework for more realistic outcomes. This framework is applicable to the estimation of mobile source emissions in nation-wide and the assessment of transportation-environment policies in regional level.

This paper presents an alternative decomposition technique to identify the relative importance of factors associated with changes in $CO_2$ emissions by using directional distance function to model the joint production of desirable and undesirable outputs. The key feature of the proposed approach is the introduction of fossil and non-fossil fuel energy input efficiencies, productivity change and emission intensity change. For the 27 OECD countries as a whole, the empirical results indicate that economic growth is the most important contributor to $CO_2$ emissions increase, while efficiency change is the most important component to $CO_2$ emissions reduction between 1980 and 2007. For more extensive insights, this paper divided 3 groups according to the emission growth rate and find out that high emission countries show relatively low production efficiencies and technical changes contributing $CO_2$ emissions increase. The results also provide that more strict environmental regulations are needed to improve the pollution intensity in these countries.

Walking is the most basic personal mobility and its importance and concern is ever increasing with the highlighting of a new paradigm, such as transit oriented development, sustainable development and revitalization of green transport. The existing analytical research on pedestrian network is using a pedestrian's moving distance to a destination and integration in space syntax theory as its representative accessibility factors. However, the uniplanar network moving distance fails to reflect topographic characteristics, so the moving distance could show a similar result value in case of the regions for analysis that have a similar network structure to each other. Accordingly, the aim of this study is to suggest a new analytical methodology on pedestrian network accessibility in consideration of the grade in pedestrian sections and a pedestrian's size. this study, in its analysis of a uniplanar pedestrian network moving distance, analyzed the pedestrian network moving distance in consideration of the grade in pedestrian sections, and even the pedestrian network moving distance in consideration of a pedestrian's size, and suggested the methodology on pedestrian network accessibility analysis in consideration of a more substantive pedestrian's characteristics. It is hoped that the methodology used by this study will be used as the methodology on pedestrian network analysis which can reflect topographic characteristics in the pedestrian network analysis, and take a more substantive pedestrian's movement into account.

This study was initiated to evaluate the performance of methodologies to estimate the space mean speed(SMS) using the time mean speed(TMS) which was collected from the vehicle detection system(VDS) in expressways. To this end, the methodologies presented in prior studies were firstly summarized. It is very hard to achieve exact SMSs and TMSs due to mechanical and communication errors in the field. Thus, a microscopic traffic simulation model was utilized to evaluated the performance. As a result, the harmonic mean and volume-distance weighted harmonic mean were close to the SMS in the case in which the TMSs of individual vehicles were used. However, when the 30-second-interval aggregated TMS were used, the volume-distance weighted harmonic mean was outstanding. In this study, a radar detector was installed in the Joongbu expressway to collect the SMS. The trajectory of individual vehicles collected from the detector were used to calculate the SMS, which was compared with the estimates using other methodologies selected in this study. As a result, the volume-distance weighted mean was turned out to be close to the SMS. However, as the congestion becomes severe. the deviation between the two speed becomes bigger.

Exercise such as walking is helpful to manage one's own weight and to counter life habit diseases such as obesity. Calorie consumption is usually calculated based on the distance walked. One way to measure the distance is by using steps and stride length. Most pedometers, including some applications in smart devices, are inaccurate, because they use a common value as the average stride length, even though each person has a different stride length. Moreover, the stride length differs depending on the walking pace, which will further increase the error. To address this, in this paper, I classify paces into three categories. Following that, I introduce a customized measurement of stride length, which is calculated based on the stride length corresponding to each pace category after obtaining x, y, z values from a 3-axis accelerometer in the smart device. In addition to this, I developed an application running on the smart device designed for the proposed measurement of stride. I have conducted three experiments for the assessment of the proposed measurement. In conclusion, I confirmed the effectiveness of this system.

Space Layout has been an issue in the facet of reducing the co2 in that the transportation sector has been to represent almost more than 20% of the total energy consumption for decades. Beside the development of the more efficient transportation systems, an efficient space layout makes it possible to reduce the amount of energy consumption in the transportation sector through allocating the sub-spaces in such an arrangement of minimizing the travel distances. In line with this thinking, this research aims at implementing a simulator which can calculate the vehicle-based travel distance upon a certain space layout. Based on the findings that the vehicle-based travels take place between the two functionally related sub-spaces, this research addresses a method of calculating the vehicle-based travel distance by multiplying the traffic volume of each sub-spaces by the travel distance to the other connected sub-spaces.

A computationally efficient algorithm is presented for 3-D near-field source localization using a uniform circular away (UCA). Algebraic relations are demonstrated between the incident angles (elevation angle and azimuth angle) under the far-field assumption and the actual near-field location (range. elevation angle, and azimuth angle). Using these relations as paths to follow to the peak of the 3-D MUSIC spectrum, the proposed algorithm replaces the 3-D search required in the conventional 3-D MUSIC with a 1-D path following after a 2-D initialization. thereby reducing the computational burden.

In this paper, we are proposing an efficient 3D source localization algorithm using 3 uniform linear subarrays. The proposed algorithm replaces 3D search required in conventional 3D MUSIC algorithm with 3 1D searches, and thus reduces computational burden. The estimate of the 1D conic angle obtained from a subarray under the far-field assumption satisfies a nonlinear algebraic equation of the true source bearing angle, elevation angle, and range. The proposed algorithm estimates source location by solving 3 algebraic equations obtained from 3 subarrays. Comparing 3D MUSIC spectrums of the estimated source locations, the proposed algorithm solves pairing problem for multiple sources localization.

Multi-input multi-output (MIMO) systems are used to improve the transmission rate in proportion to the number of antennas. However, their computational complexity is very high for the detection in the receiver. The sphere decoding (SD) is a detection algorithm with reduced complexity. In this paper, an improved Schnorr-Euchner SD (SE SD) is proposed based on the minimum mean square error (MMSE) and the Euclidean distance criteria without additional complexity.
