Monte-Carlo simulation technique is often used in order to predict service life of concrete structure subjected to chloride penetration in marine environment based on probability theory. Monte-Carlo simulation method, however, the method gives different results every time that the simulation is run. On the other hand, moment method, which is frequently used in reliability analysis, needs negligible computational cost compared with simulation technique and gives a constant result for the same problem. Thus, in this study, moment method was applied to the calculation of corrosion-initiation probability. For this purpose, computer programs to calculate failure probabilities are developed using first-order second moment (FOSM) and second-order second moment (SOSM) methods, respectively. From the analysis examples with the developed programs, SOSM was found to give a more accurate result than FOSM does. The sensitivity analysis has shown that the factor affecting the corrosion-initiation probability the most was the cover depth, and the corrosion-initiation probability was influenced more by its coefficient of variation than its mean value.

강수는 지역에 따라 발생양상이 매우 다른 자연현상 중 하나이다. 이러한 강수를 효과적으로 분석하여 확률강수량을 산정하기위해서 수문학에서는 다양한 방법이 시도되어 왔다. 우리나라에서는 지점빈도해석을 통한 확률강수량을 주로 사용해왔으나 최근 들어 Hosking and Wallis(1997)가 제안한 지역빈도해석을 활용을 적극 도모 하고 있는 중이다. 이러한 지역빈도해석 기법은 지점빈도해석 기법에 비하여 한정된 강수자료를 활용하는 측면 등 여러 가지 장점을 가진 확률 강수량 산정방법이다. 그러나 이 기법을 적용하여 확률강수량을 산정하기 위해서는 강수의 지역구분을 먼저 수행하여야 한다. 강수지역의 구분을 위해서는 여러 가지 기법이 존재하나 최근에는 Cluster 기법 중 K-means 방법이나 Fuzzy c-means 방법 등을 주로 적용하여 지역구분을 수행하고 있다. 그러나 K-means 방법이나 Fuzzy c-means 방법 등은 산정 방법내에서 최적 군집수를 결정할 수 있는 알고리즘이 없기 때문에 임의적으로 최적 군집수를 결정하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 단점을 극복하기 위하여 Cluster 평가지수 중 하나인 Dunn 지수를 이용하여 최적 군집수를 제시하고자 한다. 본 연구에서 강수지역을 구분하기 위하여 적용한 인자는 월 평균 강수량, 연 평균 강수량, 월 최대 강수량, 경도, 위도, 고도 등이며, 이를 K-means, PAM 및 친근도 전파 기법을 통하여 강수지역을 구분하였다. 적정 군집수를 임의적으로 증가시켜 가면서 Dunn 지수를 산정하였다. 산정된 결과를 통하여 최적 군집수를 결정하였다.

국내하천은 홍수기에 강수량이 집중되고 하상계수가 높으며 평균경사도도 비교적 큰 특징을 지닌다. 따라서 유량이 빠르게 집중될 수 있는 상황이 빈번하게 발생한다. 이러한 특징을 감안하여 하천의 수질을 관리하기 위해서는 유량과 수질의 상호적인 관계를 규명하는 것이 중요하다. 유량과 수질의 관계를 분석하고 예측하는 방법으로는 물리적 예측모형과 확률론적 예측모형을 이용하는 방법이 있다. 물리적 예측모형을 활용하여 하천의 유량 및 수질을 예측하는 방법은 주어진 지형과 시간의 변화에 따른 유량 및 수질 변화를 예측함으로써 특정 상황에서의 수질 변화를 규명하기에 적절하다. 한편, 풍수기, 갈수기 등 전반적인 유량의 변화에 따라 나타나는 수질변화의 특성을 규명하기 위해서는 수질과 유량 간의 상관관계 분석이 필요하다. 수질과 유량 간의 상관관계를 규명하는 목적일 경우, 물리적 예측모형은 효율성이 낮고, 충분한 데이터 확보가 전제된 상태에서의 확률론적 예측모형은 다각도 분석 및 신뢰성 확보가 가능한 장점이 있다. 그 일환으로 본 연구에서는 확률론적 접근에 기반하여 국내하천에서 수질과 유량 간의 관계를 먼저 분석하고자 한다. 데이터 마이닝 결과, 수질변화에 가장 영향이 큰 인자 및 요인이 추출되며, 이는 효과적인 수질관리 방안을 모색하는 데에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

In this study, single and multiple linear regression model were used to derive the relationship between precipitation and altitude, latitude and longitude in Jejudo. The single linear regression analysis was focused on whether orographic effect was existed in Jejudo by annual average precipitation, and the multiple linear regression analysis on whether orographic effect was applied to each duration and return period of quantile from regional frequency analysis by index flood method. As results of the regression analysis, it shows the relationship between altitude and precipitation strongly form a linear relationship as the length of duration and return period increase. The multiple linear regression precipitation estimates(which used altitude, latitude, and longitude information) were found to be more reasonable than estimates obtained using altitude only or altitude-latitude and altitude-longitude. Especially, as results of spatial distribution analysis by kriging method using GIS, it also provides realistic estimates for precipitation that the precipitation was occurred the southeast region as real climate of Jejudo. However, the accuracy of regression model was decrease which derived a short duration of precipitation or estimated high region precipitation even had long duration. Consequently the other factor caused orographic effect would be needed to estimate precipitation to improve accuracy.

Forecasting cash flow is very important but is difficult and complicated to analysis in high-rise development projects. And An expected value which was forecasted on the early stage is likely to fluctuate due to uncertainties around such complicated huge project to consider the probable uncertainty. There are not objectified method which are able to cope with uncertainty of project, and feasibility study based on selected financial analysis does not include liquidity of cash flow. Through such a stochastic method, developer can cope with cash flow fluctuation and set up a financial plan. Also this study is meaningful for laying the foundation for high-rise development project and feasibility study as well as the suitability and accuracy of feasibility study. Analysis showed that NPV and IRR include residential apartments shows surplus revenue as return of apartments offset deficit of hotel and office. Factors influencing the project feasibility for high-rise development project are sales account of $1^{st}$ year and annual vacancy rate of office.

In recent, the critical rainfall duration concept is widely used but we do not have understandable criteria yet. However, the critical rainfall duration is usually calculated considering concentration time, runoff model using effective rainfall, and unit hydrograph for the estimation of design flood. This study is to derive the regression equations between the critical rainfall duration and hydrologic components such as the basin area, slope, length, CN, and so on. We use a GIS tool which is called the ArcView for the estimation of hydrologic components and the HEC-1 module which is provided in WMS model is used for the runoff computation. As the results, the basin area, basin slope, and basin length had a great influence on the estimations of peak runoff and critical rainfall duration. We also investigated the sensitivities for the peak runoff and critical duration of rainfall from the correlation analysis for the involved components in the runoff estimation.

RUSLE(Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation) has been widely used to estimate the soil loss amount of watersheds from rainfall erosivity, soil erodibility, topographic features and cropping management condition. Rainfall erosivity is the most dominant and sensitive factor among these so that the determination of reliable rainfall erosivity is essential to estimate the soil loss of watershed. Since there has been no criterion to determine the rainfall erosivity in Korea, the empirical values, determined from the relation between the annual average rainfall and erosivity or suggested by TBR(Transport Research Board), have been used for designing the erosion control structure and controlling the soil erosion for watersheds. In this study, the procedure for estimating the rainfall erosivity using frequency analysis is proposed. The most fitted distribution function, with calculated rainfall erosivities with various frequencies and durations, has been also selected. The suggested procedure can be used to estimate the optimal value of rainfall erosivity for RUSLE in order to design soil erosion structures and control the soil erosion in watersheds effectively.

This paper suggests a conditional simulation framework based on multiple data transformations for geostatistical simulation of compositional data. First, log-ratio transformation is applied to original compositional data in order to apply conventional statistical methodologies. As for the next transformations that follow, minimum/maximum autocorrelation factors (MAF) and indicator transformations are sequentially applied. MAF transformation is applied to generate independent new variables and as a result, an independent simulation of individual variables can be applied. Indicator transformation is also applied to non-parametric conditional cumulative distribution function modeling of variables that do not follow multi-Gaussian random function models. Finally, inverse transformations are applied in the reverse order of those transformations that are applied. A case study with surface sediment compositions in tidal flats is carried out to illustrate the applicability of the presented simulation framework. All simulation results satisfied the constraints of compositional data and reproduced well the statistical characteristics of the sample data. Through surface sediment classification based on multiple simulation results of compositions, the probabilistic evaluation of classification results was possible, an evaluation unavailable in a conventional kriging approach. Therefore, it is expected that the presented simulation framework can be effectively applied to geostatistical simulation of various compositional data.

In order to decrease the area damaged by forest fires and to prevent the occurrence of forest fires, the forest fire danger rating system was developed to estimate forest fire risk by means of weather, topography, and forest type. Forest fires occurrence prediction needs to improve continually. Logistic regression and spatial analysis was used in developing the forest fire occurrence probability model. The forest fire danger index in accordance to the probability of forest fire occurrence was used in the classification of forest fire occurrence risk regions.

An Image Infra-Red(IIR) seeker is widely used for precision guided munitions to provide intelligent and precise target detection in terms of high kill probability. However, there have been issues in determining the performance versus cost trade-offs due to high cost of seeker comparing to other units of the munitions. In this paper, performance/cost evaluations have been carried out to find the most cost-effective solution for developing the IIR seekers. The relationships between the critical parameters and cost are investigated to determine the optimal point which represents the low cost with high performance. It is expected that the presented approach will be able to be used for guidelines to select the appropriate IIR seeker for the given operating conditions and can be useful to estimate the cost effectiveness of the precision guided munitions at early design stage.
