The sound velocity (compressional wave) and attenuation coefficient in the marine surface sediments in the nearshore areas off the Pohang, Pusan, Yeosu and Kunsan were investigated in terms of the geotechnical properties of the marine surface sediments in the water depth range of 10-50 meters. The marine surface sediments in the study areas are variable, that is, sand to clay. Due to the various four different study area, the sound velocities and attenuation coefficients in the surface sediment facies vary 1,44m/sec to 1,510m/sec in velocity and 0.82dB/m to 3.70dB/m in coefficient respectively. In fact, the sound velocity increases with increasing of density and mean grain sizes of the sediments, and however, with decreasing of porosith. The correlation equations between the sound velocith and geotechnical properties of mean grain size, density, and porosity were expressed as the following: Vp=1512.28406-9.16083(Mz)＋0.20795(Mz)$\^$2/, Vp=1876.15527-597.50397(d)＋210.48375(d)$\^$2/, Vp=1559.47217-2.09266(n)$\^$2/. where Vp is sound velocity, Mz is mean grain size, d is density, and m is porosity, respectively. However, the relationship between the attenuation and geotechnical properties were different from that of sound velocity and geotchnical properties. Furthermore, the correlation equations between attenuation coefficient and geotechnical properties were expressed as the following: a=1.85217＋0.67197(Mz)-0.09035 (Mz)$\^$2/, a=48.87859＋58.21721(d)-16.3.143(d)$\^$2/, a=2.06765＋0.07215(n)-0.00111(n)$\^$2/, where a is attenuation coefficient. The high attenuation appeared in the silty sand through fine sand facies in sediment and k values in these facies were in the range of 0.86 to 0.89 dB/m/KHz.

In order to analyze the rolling motion of a ship in random beam waves we use the partial stochastic linearization method. The quadratic damping and the nonlinear restoring moments given by the odd polynomials up to the 11th order are added to a single degree of freedom linear equation of roll motion. The irregular excitation moment is assumed to be the Gaussian white noise. The statistical characteristics of the response by the partial stochastic linearization method is compared with results by the equivalent linearization method and Monte Carlo simulation. It is fecund that the partial stochastic linearization method is not necessarily superior to the equivalent linearization method.

This paper describes a fundamental method to suppress vibration of a structure under excitation by attaching a impact absorber. The influence of the shape of impact absorber, such as weight of add mass, impact clearance, contacting area and the exciting frequency on suppressing vibrations of the structure is investigated. The effectiveness of the proposed vibration absorber is demonstrated experimentally.

In this paper, a 90$^{\circ}$ hybrid coupler with both power division and harmonic rejection characteristics is presented by applying a LPF characteristic to a conventional 90$^{\circ}$ hybrid. Since a conventional 90$^{\circ}$ hybrid coupler operates as a power divider/combiner using phase difference, it does not suppress higher order harmonics when it is incorporated with nonlinear amplifier. This requires an additional filter to take into account of the harmonics. The proposed 90$^{\circ}$hybrid coupler power provides the division capability and proper phase difference, as well as harmonic suppression characteristic by integrating LPF characteristic.

The objective of this study is to increase the accuracy of dose transmission in radiation therapy using two types of treatment tables, standard exact couch (Varian 21EX, Varian Medical Systems, Milpitas, CA) and 6D robotic couch (Novalis, BrainLAB A.G., Heimstetten, Germany)). We examined the dose attenuation based on the two types of treatment tables and studied the dose of attenuation using the phase (In/Out) for the standard exact couch. We measured the relative dose according to the incident angle of a penetrative photon beam under a treatment table. The incident angle of the photon beam was from $0^{\circ}$ to $360^{\circ}$ in the increments of $5^{\circ}$. The reference angle was set to $0^{\circ}$. Furthermore, the relative dose of the 6D robotic couch was measured using 6 MV and 15 MV, and that of the standard exact couch was measured at the sliding rail position (In-Out) using 6 MV and 10 MV. In the case of the standard exact couch, the measured relative dose was 16.53% (rails at the "In position," $175^{\circ}$, 6 MV), 12.42% (rails at the "In position," $175^{\circ}$, 10 MV), 13.13% (rails at the "Out position," $175^{\circ}$, 6 MV), and 9.96% (rails at the "Out position," $175^{\circ}$, 10 MV). In the case of the 6D robotic couch, the measured relative dose was 6.82% ($130^{\circ}$, 6 MV) and 4.92% ($130^{\circ}$, 15 MV). The photon energies were surveyed at the same incident angle. The dose attenuation for an energy of 10 MV was 4~5% lower than that for 6 MV. This indicated that the higher photon energy, lesser is the attenuation. The results of this study indicated that the attenuation rate for the 6D robotic couch was confirmed to be 1% larger than that for the standard exact couch at 6 MV and $180^{\circ}$. In the case of the standard exact couch, the dose attenuation was found to change rapidly in accordance with the phase ("In position" and "Out position") of the sliding rail.

Active noise control(ANC) is an approach to noise reduction in which a secondary noise source destructively interferes with the unwanted noise is introduced. Generally, the performance of ANC is determined how well a secondary noise tracks noises. A secondary noise is generated from the cancelling speaker and a error sensor pick up error signal. The transfer function between the cancelling speaker and the error sensor is not flat and distorts secondary noises. Consequently, the performance of ANC is degraded by the transfer function. In this paper, a single sensor ANC which considers the characteristics of the speaker and the error sensor is proposed. To reduce distortion of secondary noises, the transfer function is estimated by adaptive inverse modelling and the primary noises are estimated by Kalman filter. Experimental results show that the proposed single sensor ANC effectively attenuates noises.

하모니 영상은 초음파의 비선형 전파 과정에서 발생된 하모닉 성분을 영상화 한다. 하모닉 영상은 초음파에 비선형적으로 반응하는 초음파 조영제를 사용하여 하모닉 성분의 발생을 최대화 하고 있다. 일반적으로 현재 임상적으로 사용되는 하모닉 영상은 2차 고주파 성분을 사용한 것을 의미한다. 2차 하모닉 영상은 주파수의 상승으로 공간 분해능이 향상된다. 초음파 조영제를 이용하는 경우 서브 하모닉, 울트라 하모닉의 발생도 유의할 것으로 기대되지만 이에 대한 연구는 거의 없는 실정이다. 서브 하모닉은 상대적으로 2차 하모닉보다 전파 과정에서 감쇠 효과가 작기 때문에 심부의 영상에 유리하다 서브 하모닉 및 울트라 하모닉 성분 검출은 초음파 변환기의 대역폭에 대한 제한을 2차 하모닉에 비해 상대적으로 덜 받는다. 본 연구에서는 진단용 초음파에 의해 초음파 조영제에서 방사하는 하모닉 성분의 크기를 시뮬레이션 하였다. 수치해석은 Gilmore Equation을 이용하였으며, 초음파 조영제의 탄성 효과는 무시하였다. 초음파 조영제의 크기와 초음파의 MI에 따라 하모닉 성분의 크기를 정량적으로 비교하고, 서브 및 울트라 하모닉 영상의 구현에 대해 토의하였다.

본 연구는 일정 지역의 확률론적 지진위험도 (Probabilistic Seismic Hazard) 평가와 관련하여 전문가가 제시한 제1차 입력자료를 이용하여 제2차 입력자료를 도출할 때 입력자료의 다단계화를 통하여 각 단계별 구간의 입력자료가 확률론적 지진위험도 불확실성에 미치는 상대적 영향을 분석하였다. 확률론적 지진위험도 분석을 위하여 미국지질조사연구소 (USGS) 및 미국 로렌스리버모어 연구소(LLNL)가 개발한 전산코드를 각각 이용하였고 또한 전문가가 제시한 제 1차 입력자료는 기존 연구보고서에서 주어진 자료를 이용하였다. 분석결과 지진활동도 변수 특히 지진규모의 각 단계 및 감쇠특성함수의 진앙거리 단계에 따라서 확률론적 지진위험도의 절대값 및 불확실성에 미치는 영향의 차이가 상대적으로 크다는 것이 확인되었다. 또한 부지별로 이러한 분석을 함으로서 확률론적 지진 위험도 곡선에 영향을 미치는 임의 부지에 고유한 임계 지진규모 및 임계 진앙거리에 대한 분석을 통하여 전반적으로 불확실성을 감소시킬 수 있다.

EM tomography technique has been developed. The algorithm used the extended Born approximations for forward modeling and reconstructed a conductivity image by a smoothness constraint least squares inversion method. Observed data, the vertical components of secondary magnetic fields, were simulated with the 3-D integral equation code. The results showed that the location of anomalous body could be imaged very well, but conductivity of the body was lower than real one and the vertical resolution was much higher than the horizontal resolution.
