홍수로 인한 인적 물적 피해는 국가 및 지방자치단체의 치수방재노력에도 불구하고 매년 끊이지 않고 발생하고 있다. 다행히 인명피해의 경우 1970, 80년대 연간 300명 규모에서 2000년대에는 150명 가량으로 줄고 있으나, 재산상의 피해는 매년 증가하고 있는 실정이다. 또한 과거 자연재난에 의한 홍수피해에 기후변화라는 외부요인이 추가적으로 발생하고 있는 실정이며, 국가 경제 발전 및 노령화 사회로 인한 홍수취약인구 증가로 좀 더 적극적인 방재대책이 필요할 것으로 판단된다. 이러한 방재대책 등의 국가정책 수립을 위해서는 장래의 홍수피해 예측이 무엇보다 필요하게 되는데, 현재까지는 홍수피해의 빈도분석 등을 통해 이러한 예측이 이루어지고 있다. 그러나 기후변화라는 외생변수는 과거 자료의 확률적 특성을 마비시켜 이러한 방법론들은 효용성을 잃게될 것으로 전망된다. 홍수피해액을 산정하는 방법은 일반적으로 2005년 이후 하천설계기준에서 채택하고 있는 다차원법을 많이 사용하고 있는데, 이 방법은 침수구역의 물리적 피해를 고려할 수 있어 비교적 정확한 홍수피해액을 산정할 수 있는 것으로 알려져 왔다. 그러나 이 방법을 적용하기 위해서는 정확한 침수심 산정이 무엇보다 필요하게 되는데, 이를 위해서는 지리정보체계(GIS)와 수리모형의 연계가 필수적이다. 따라서 이 방법은 주로 중소유역단위의 취수사업에 적용되어 왔다. 그러나 정책결정에 필요한 대규모유역 또는 지자체단위의 피해비용 산정에의 적용은 한계를 갖게 된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 향후 기후변화 시나리오에 적용이 가능하도록 과거 홍수피해자료와 호우사상의 강우특성을 중심으로 양자간의 히스토그램 분석을 실시하였다. 또한 실제 홍수피해 조사자료는 대부분 지방자치단체별로 조사가 되고 있는 실정이므로 본 연구에서도 행정구역별로 분석을 수행하였다. 분석 결과 지자체별 전체 피해액은 발생횟수가 높은 중규모 호우사상으로 인한 비중이 가장 높게 나타나고 있으며, 국가에서 집중해야할 치수대책 수립 대상 규모도 이를 중점적으로 고려하여야 할 것으로 판단된다.

최근 기후변화와 이상기후의 영향으로 국지성 호우 및 가뭄, 홍수, 태풍 등 재해 발생 규모가 커지고 그 빈도 또한 많아지고 있다. 이러한 자연재해 및 이상현상에 대한 피해를 예방하고 빠르게 대처하기 위해서는 정확한 강우량 추정 및 강우의 시간적 예측이 필요하다. 이러한 강우의 불확실성을 해결하기 위해서 기상청 등에서는 단일 수치예보가 가지는 결정론적인 예측의 한계를 보완한 초기조건, 물리과정, 경계조건 등이 다른 여러 개의 모델을 수행하여, 확률적으로 미래를 예측하는 앙상블 예측 시스템을 예보기술에 응용하고 있으며 기존 수치모델의 정보와 예보 불확실성에 대한 정보를 동시에 제공하고 있다. 그러나 다양한 자연조건에 대한 불완전한 물리적 이해와 연산 능력 등의 한계로 높은 불확실성이 내포되어 있으므로 불확실성을 최소화하기 위한 편의보정이 수행될 필요가 있다. 강우분석의 적용 이전에 해당 자료의 타당성과 신뢰도의 분석이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 LENS(Local ENsemble prediction System) 예측값과 시강우 관측값을 단기예측모델에 맞추어 3시간 누적하여 비교하였다. 비교 기간은 호우가 집중되는 2016년 10월로 선정하였으며 대상지역은 울산중구로 선정하였다. LENS를 대상 지역의 관측소 지점값과 행정구역 면적값을 따로 추출한 후, 불확실성을 최소화하기 위해 활용되고 있는 CF 기법과 QM 기법을 이용하여 LENS 모델을 재가공하고 이에 따른 편의보정 기법에 따른 LENS 모델을 과거의 실제강우 관측값과의 비교분석을 이용해 적용성을 검토 및 평가하였다.

In this study, to estimate loss of life considered flood characteristics using the relationship derived from analysis of historical dam break cases and the factors determining loss of life, the loss of life module applying in LIFESim and loss of life estimation by means of a mortality function were suggested and applicability for domestic dam watershed was examined. The flood characteristics, such as water depth, flow velocity and arrival time were simulated by FLDWAV model and flood risk area were predicted by using inundation depth. Based on this, the effects of warning, evacuation and shelter were considered to estimate the number of people exposed to the flood. In order to estimate fatality rates based on the exposed population, flood hazard zone is assigned to three different zones. Then, total fatality numbers were predicted after determining lethality or mortality function for each zone. In the future, the prediction of loss of life due to dam break floods will quantitatively evaluate flood risk and employ to establish flood mitigation measures at downstream applying probabilistic flood scenarios.

A diffusion coefficient is an important parameter in the prediction of atmospheric dispersion using a Gaussian plume model, and its modelling approach varies. In this study, dispersion coefficients recommended by the U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission's (U. S. NRC's) regulatory guide and the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission's (CNSC's) regulatory guide, and used in probabilistic accident consequence analysis codes MACCS and MACCS2 have been investigated. Based on the atmospheric dispersion model for a hypothetical accidental release recommended by the U. S. NRC, its influence to atmospheric dispersion factor was discussed. It was found that diffusion coefficients are basically predicted from a Pasquill- Gifford curve, but various curve fitting equations are recommended or used. A lateral dispersion coefficient is corrected with consideration for the additional spread due to plume meandering in all models, however its modelling approach showed a distinctive difference. Moreover, a vertical dispersion coefficient is corrected with consideration for the additional plume spread due to surface roughness in all models, except for the U. S. NRC's recommendation. For a specified surface roughness, the atmospheric dispersion factors showed differences up to approximately 4 times depending on the modelling approach of a dispersion coefficient. For the same model, the atmospheric dispersion factors showed differences by 2 to 3 times depending on surface roughness.

This paper proposes Kalman Filter-based relative navigation algorithms for proximity tasks such as rendezvous/docking/cluster-operation of spacecraft using PSD Sensors and Infrared Beacon Modules. Numerical simulations are performed for comparative analysis of the performance of each relative-navigation technique. Based on the operation principle and optical modeling of the PSD Sensor and the Infrared Beacon Module used in the relative navigation algorithm, a measurement model for the Kalman filter is constructed. The Extended Kalman Filter(EKF) and the Unscented Kalman Filter(UKF) are used as probabilistic relative navigation based on measurement fusion to utilize kinematics and dynamics information on translational and rotation motions of satellites. Relative position and relative attitude estimation performance of two filters is compared. Especially, through the simulation of various scenarios, performance changes are also investigated depending on the number of PSD Sensors and IR Beacons in target and chaser satellites.

Traditionally, a dynamic network model is considered as a tool for solving real-time traffic problems. One of useful and practical ways of using such models is to use it to produce and disseminate forecast travel time information so that the travelers can switch their routes from congested to less-congested or uncongested, which can enhance the performance of the network. This approach seems to be promising when the traffic congestion is severe, especially when sudden incidents happen. A consideration that should be given in implementing this method is that travel time information may affect the future traffic condition itself, creating undesirable side effects such as the over-reaction problem. Furthermore incorrect forecast travel time can make the information unreliable. In this paper, a network-wide travel time prediction model under incidents is developed. The model assumes that all drivers have access to detailed traffic information through personalized in-vehicle devices such as car navigation systems. Drivers are assumed to make their own travel choice based on the travel time information provided. A route-based stochastic variational inequality is formulated, which is used as a basic model for the travel time prediction. A diversion function is introduced to account for the motorists' willingness to divert. An inverse function of the diversion curve is derived to develop a variational inequality formulation for the travel time prediction model. Computational results illustrate the characteristics of the proposed model.

Retaining walls have been used to prevent slope failure through resistance of earth pressure in railway, road, nuclear power plant, dam, and river infrastructure. To calculate dynamic earth pressure and determine the characteristics for seismic behavior, many researchers have analyzed the nonlinear response of ground and structure based on various numerical analyses (FLAC, PLAXIS, ABAQUS etc). In addition, seismic fragility evaluation is performed to ensure safety against earthquakes for structures. In this study, we used the FLAC2D program to understand the seismic response of the inverted T-type wall with a backfill slope, and evaluated seismic fragility based on relative horizontal displacements of the wall. Nonlinear site response analysis was performed for each site (S2 and S4) using the seven ground motions to calculate various seismic loadings reflecting site characteristics. The numerical model was validated based on other numerical models, experiment results, and generalized formula for dynamic active earth pressure. We also determined the damage state and damage index based on the height of retaining wall, and developed the seismic fragility curves. The damage probabilities of the retaining wall for the S4 site were computed to be larger than those for the S2 site.

Unlike other natural disasters, drought is a reoccurring and region-wide phenomenon after being triggered by a prolonged precipitation deficiency. Considering that remote sensing products provide consistent temporal and spatial measurements of precipitation, this study developed a remote sensing data-based drought outlook model. The meteorological drought was defined by the Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) achieved from PERSIANN_CDR, TRMM 3B42 and GPM IMERG images. Bayesian networks were employed in this study to combine the historical drought information and dynamical prediction products in advance of drought outlook. Drought outlook was determined through a decision-making model considering the current drought condition and forecasted condition from the Bayesian networks. Drought outlook condition was classified by four states such as no drought, drought occurrence, drought persistence, and drought removal. The receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve analysis were employed to measure the relative outlook performance with the dynamical prediction production, Multi-Model Ensemble (MME). The ROC analysis indicated that the proposed outlook model showed better performance than the MME, especially for drought occurrence and persistence of 2- and 3-month outlook.

Previous settlement prediction methods based on settlement monitoring were developed under instantaneous loading condition and have restriction to be applied to soft ground under ramp loading condition. In this study, settlement prediction method under ramp loading was developed. New settlement prediction method under ramp loading considered influence factors of consolidation settlement such as thickness of clayed layer, quantity of surcharge load and preconsolidation pressure, etc. Geometrical correction method based on hyperbolic method (1991) and correction method based on probability theory were applied to increase accuracy of settlement prediction using field monitoring data after ramp loading. Large consolidation tests for ideally controlled one dimensional consolidation under ramp loading condition were performed and the settlement behavior was predicted based on the monitoring data. New prediction method yielded good result of entire settlement behavior by using data during an early stage of ramp load. Additionally, new prediction method offered better settlement prediction which had final settlement prediction in close proximity and low RMSE(Root Mean Square Error) than previous method such as hyperbolic method did.

Many studies in the field of information security reveal the need to increase awareness. However, although awareness of information security has been raised to a considerable extent, actual security behavior has been shown to fall short of that. Therefore, we wanted to identify the role of psychological factors in making information security decisions by conducting a experimental study. The results show that there are differences in perception of information security risks according to the probabilistic distance and the degree of relative optimism due to social distance. In relation to their relative optimism and intention of information security, they reduced the level of perceived risk compared to those close to them and found that their influence varied according to their probabilistic distance. This study has made valuable attempt in terms of methodology and it is meaningful that the psychological factor is taken into consideration for the information protection behavior, so that the range of relative optimism that actually affects the perception of risk is narrowed. It is expected to contribute to the improvement of information security level of information technology users and protection of information assets by empirically identifying necessity of various approaches to decision making process for information security.
