A large number of concrete structures are built and used around the world. To ensure their safe and continuous use, these structures require constant inspection and maintenance. While man-powered inspection and maintenance techniques are efficient, they can only provide intermittent status checks at the time of on-site inspection. Therefore, there is a growing need for a system that can continuously monitor the condition of the structure. A study was conducted to detect cracks and damage by installing a conductive coating on the surface of a concrete structure. A parallel resistance pattern that can monitor the occurrence and progression of cracks was developed by reflecting the structural characteristics of concrete structure. An empirical study was conducted to veryfy the application of the proposed method. The crack detection pattern was installed on the reinforced concrete beams, and the crack monitoring method was verified through applying a load on the beams.

There is a growing demand for agrometeorological information that end-users can use and not just interesting information. lo achieve this, each region/community needs to develop and provide localized climate and weather information for growers. Additionally, provide tools to help local users interpret climate forecasts issued by the National Weather Service in the country. Real time information should be provided for farmers, including some basic data. An ideal agrometeorological information system includes several components: an efficient data measuring and collection system; a modern telecommunication system; a standard data management processing and analysis system; and an advanced technological information dissemination system. While it is conventional wisdom that, Internet is and will play a major role in the delivery and dissemination of agrometeorological information, there are large gaps between the "information rich" and the "information poor" countries. Rural communities represent the "last mile of connectivity". For some time to come, TV broadcast, radio, phone, newspaper and fax will be used in many countries for communication. The differences in achieving this among countries arise from the human and financial resources available to implement this information and the methods of information dissemination. These differences must be considered in designing any information dissemination system. Experience shows that easy across to information more tailored to user needs would substantially increase use of climate information. Opportunities remain unexplored for applications of geographical information systems and remote sensing in agro meteorology.e sensing in agro meteorology.

Continuous research efforts are being devoted to unmanned mobile platforms for lunar exploration. There is an ongoing demand for real-time information processing to accurately determine the positioning and mapping of areas of interest on the lunar surface. To apply deep learning processing and analysis techniques to practical rovers, research on software integration and optimization is imperative. In this study, a foundational investigation has been conducted on real-time analysis of virtual lunar base construction site images, aimed at automatically quantifying spatial information of key objects. This study involved transitioning from an existing region-based object recognition algorithm to a boundary box-based algorithm, thus enhancing object recognition accuracy and inference speed. To facilitate extensive data-based object matching training, the Batch Hard Triplet Mining technique was introduced, and research was conducted to optimize both training and inference processes. Furthermore, an improved software system for object recognition and identical object matching was integrated, accompanied by the development of visualization software for the automatic matching of identical objects within input images. Leveraging satellite simulative captured video data for training objects and moving object-captured video data for inference, training and inference for identical object matching were successfully executed. The outcomes of this research suggest the feasibility of implementing 3D spatial information based on continuous-capture video data of mobile platforms and utilizing it for positioning objects within regions of interest. As a result, these findings are expected to contribute to the integration of an automated on-site system for video-based construction monitoring and control of significant target objects within future lunar base construction sites.

스마트 시설환경의 제어 요소는 난방기, 창 개폐, 수분/양액 밸브 개폐, 환풍기, 제습기 등 직접적으로 시설환경의 조절에 관여하는 인자와 정보 교환을 위한 통신, 사용자 인터페이스 등 간접적으로 제어에 관련된 요소들이 복합적으로 존재한다. PID 제어와 같이 하는 수학적 논리를 바탕으로 한 제어와 전문 관리자의 지식을 기반으로 한 비선형 학습 모델에 의한 제어 등이 공존할 수 있다. 이러한 다양한 요소들을 복합적으로 연동시키기 위해선 기존의 시퀀스 기반 제어 방식에는 한계가 있을 수 있다. 관행의 방식과 같이 시계열 상에서 획득한 충분한 데이터를 이용하여 제어의 양과 시점을 결정하는 방식은 예외 상황에 충분히 대처하기 어려운 단점이 있을 수 있다. 이러한 예외 상황은 자연적인 조건의 변화에 따라 불가피하게 발생하는 경우와 시스템의 오류에 기인하는 경우로 나뉠 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 실시간으로 변하는 시설환경 내의 다양한 환경요소를 실시간으로 분석하고 상응하는 제어를 수행하여 수학적이며 예측 가능한 논리에 의해 준비된 제어시스템을 보완할 방법을 연구하였다. 과거의 고성능 컴퓨팅(HPC; High Performance Computing)은 다수의 컴퓨터를 고속 네트워크로 연동하여 집적적으로 연산능력을 향상시킨 기술로 비용과 규모의 측면에서 많은 투자를 필요로 하는 첨단 고급 기술이었다. 핸드폰과 모바일 장비의 발달로 인해 소형 마이크로프로세서가 발달하여 근래 2 Ghz의 클럭 속도에 이르는 어플리케이션 프로세서(AP: Application Processor)가 등장하기도 하였다. 상대적으로 낮은 성능에도 불구하고 저전력 소모와 플랫폼의 소형화를 장점으로 한 AP를 시설환경의 실시간 제어에 응용하기 위한 방안을 연구하였다. CPU의 클럭, 메모리의 양, 코어의 수량을 다음과 같이 달리한 3가지 시스템을 비교하여 AP를 이용한 마이크로 클러스터링 기술의 성능을 비교하였다.1) 1.5 Ghz, 8 Processors, 32 Cores, 1GByte/Processor, 32Bit Linux(ARMv71). 2) 2.0 Ghz, 4 Processors, 32 Cores, 2GByte/Processor, 32Bit Linux(ARMv71). 3) 1.5 Ghz, 8 Processors, 32 Cores, 2GByte/Processor, 64Bit Linux(Arch64). 병렬 컴퓨팅을 위한 개발 라이브러리로 MPICH(www.mpich.org)와 Open-MP(www.openmp.org)를 이용하였다. 2,500,000,000에 이르는 정수 중 소수를 구하는 연산에 소요된 시간은 1)17초, 2)13초, 3)3초 이었으며, $12800{\times}12800$ 크기의 행렬에 대한 2차원 FFT 연산 소요시간은 각각 1)10초, 2)8초, 3)2초 이었다. 3번 경우는 클럭속도가 3Gh에 이르는 상용 데스크탑의 연산 속도보다 빠르다고 평가할 수 있다. 라이브러리의 따른 결과는 근사적으로 동일하였다. 선행 연구에서 획득한 3차원 계측 데이터를 1초 단위로 3차원 선형 보간법을 수행한 경우 코어의 수를 4개 이하로 한 경우 근소한 차이로 동일한 결과를 보였으나, 코어의 수를 8개 이상으로 한 경우 앞선 결과와 유사한 경향을 보였다. 현장 보급 가능성, 구축비용 및 전력 소모 등을 종합적으로 고려한 AP 활용 마이크로 클러스터링 기술을 지속적으로 연구할 것이다.

Portable artificial electronic nose (E-nose) system suffers from noisy fluctuation in surroundings such as temperature, vapor concentration, and gas flow, because its measuring condition is not controled precisely as in the laboratory. It is important to develop a simple and robust vapor recognition technique applicable to this uncontrolled measurement, especially for the portable measuring and diagnostic system which are expanding its area with the improvements in micro bio sensor technology. This study used a PDA-based portable E-nose to collect the uncontrolled vapor measurement signals, and applied the image matching algorithm developed in the previous study on the measured signal to verify its robustness and improved accuracy in portable vapor recognition. The results showed not only its consistent performance under noisy fluctuation in the portable measurement signal, but also an advanced recognition accuracy for 2 similar vapor species which have been hard to discriminate with the conventional maximum sensitivity feature extraction method. The proposed method can be easily applied to the data processing of the ubiquitous sensor network (USN) which are usually exposed to various operating conditions. Furthermore, it will greatly help to realize portable medical diagnostic and environment monitoring system with its robust performance and high accuracy.

The influence of fines of the frost susceptibility of subgrade soils were established by laboratory freezing system test simulating closely the thermal conditions in the field. During the winter season, the climate is heavily influenced by the cold and dry continental high pressure. Because of siberian air mass, the temperature of January is $-6{\sim}-7^{\circ}C$ on average. This chilly weather generate the frost heaving by freezing the moisture of soil and damage potential of the road structure. In the freezing soil, the ice lenses increase the freeze portion of soil by absorbing the ground water with capillary action. However, the capillary characteristics differ from the sort of soil on the state of freezing condition. In the current design codes for anti-freezing layer, the thickness of anti freezing layer is calculated by freezing depth against the temperature condition. Therefore, they have a tendency of over-design and uniform thickness without the considerations of thermal stability, bearing capacity and frost susceptibility of materials. So, it is essential for studying the appropriateness and bearing capacity besides the seasonal and mechanical properties of pavement materials to take a appropriate and reasonable design of the road structure. In this Paper, the evaluation of frost susceptibility was conducted by means of the mechanical property test and laboratory freezing system apparatus. The temperature, heaving amount, heaving pressure and unfrozen water contents of soil samples, the subgrade soils of highway construction site, were measured to determine the frost susceptibility.

By prosperous condition of construction economy in the early 90s in Korea, the government needed a lot of the qualified professional engineers (PE) to manage the construction site. In order to meet the high demand of P.E., Government has established the admitted engineer systems(AES) in 1995 that give the authority of principal engineers to the admitted engineers who do not take the written examination but have equivalent working experience. Since 2000, professional $engineer^{\circ}{\phi}s$ shortage has been resolved. however, the opposite situation, which is serious over-supply of construction engineers has occurred. Thus, Government announced that would abolish the admitted engineer systems as recognized the existent admitted engineers(about 1,000,000 persons) from 2007. However, Professional Engineers Institution has strongly insisted that Government should not recognize existent admitted engineers. From this point of view, it is critical to make the supply-demand forecast systems as a derivative approach of System Dynamics also, that is useful in comparing the argument between Government and Professional Engineers Institution. This paper describes about principal $engineer^{\circ}{\phi}s$ supply change by admitted engineer system abrogation and suggests the idea to regulate the supply and demand with the improvement of the regal system.
