The roughness coefficients at stage gaging station were calculated and suggested based upon figures and formulae. The results shows that roughness coefficient decreases by increasing the discharge with the exception of no change or increasing in the cases having the tall vegetation and big influence from the stream bank. As a result of the research about the water quality in streams, vegetation and aquatic organisms, the paper suggests the need for management system to protect the organisms in danger of extinction and the need for preserving the diverse species at the estuary that is located in the downstream.

The results of flow feature around two circular cylinders in various arrangements are carried out using two-dimensional simulation at Reynolds number of 200. In this work, time-averaged fluid force acting on the upstream and downstream cylinders were calculated for staggered angle ${\alpha}=0{\sim}90^{\circ}$ in the range of L/D = 1.1~5, where ${\alpha}$ is the angle between the free-stream flow and the line connecting the centers of the cylinders, L is centre-to-centre distance and D is cylinder diameter. The dependence of magnitudes and trends of fluid force coefficient on the spacing ratio L/D and ${\alpha}$ are discussed. In all arrangements of two cylinders, tandem arrangement (${\alpha}=0^{\circ}$) is the case produced a minimum drag coefficient for downstream cylinder. Moreover, the locations of separation and stagnation points or pressure coefficient on surface of the cylinder were examined.

The study aims to compare whether using Earnings Response Coefficient (ERC) is better than using the new concept of Accounting Earnings Response Coefficient (AERC) in determining the earnings quality response coefficient value. Also, the study seeks to explain the effect of company characteristics and corporate governance on AERC through voluntary disclosure and information asymmetry. Research samples include 69 manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange over the period 2014-2017. The data come from annual reports, stock market prices, CSPI, EPS, stock returns and market returns. The research model is tested using the structural equation model (SEM) with partial least square (PLS). The results showed the value of the earnings response coefficient produced by AERC and ERC was different. Earnings quality resulting from AERC regression by adding CFO values better reflects the actual earnings quality. These results are consistent with the concept built from the proposition about earnings quality at AERC, that quality earnings are informative accounting earnings. The theoretical findings of this study provide an explanation that operational cash flow plays a role in evaluating earnings quality, while providing reinforcement that the ERC regression model fails to detect stock market reactions to information relevant to the aggregated values of accounting earnings.

Drag coefficient is one of the critical design factors to quantify the piston effect in vehicle tunnels. Several problems are raised on the drag coefficient currently applied for the ventilation system design; unverified adoption of the projected frontal area of the vehicle from the foreign study in the past, and lack of consideration for the slip-streaming effect. This study aims at better estimation of the traffic-induced ventilation force in the local tunnels. Values for the projected frontal area of the vehicles running on the local roads at present are proposed and results of an extensive CFD study are studied on the slip-streaming effects in various traffic conditions to quantify $K_{blockage}$ and the drag coefficient in the domestic tunnels.

Generally speaking, a hydrodynamic model needs a friction coefficient (Manning coefficient or Chezy coefficient) and eddy viscosity. For numerical solution the coefficients are usually determined by recursive calculations. The eddy viscosity in numerical model plays physical diffusion in flow and also acts as numerical viscosity. Hence its value has influence on the stability of numerical solution and for these reasons a consistent evaluation procedure is needed. By using records of stage and discharge in the downstream reach of the Han river, I-D models (HEC-2 and NETWORK) and 2-D model (SMS), estimated values of Manning coefficient and an empirical equation for eddy viscosity are presented. The computed results are verified through the recorded flow elevation data.n data.

Among the protected horticulture facilities in Korea, 99.2% are pipe-framed green houses and most of them are structurally vulnerable single-span type green houses. This study examined peak external pressure coefficient for the roof surface of a green house group composed of single-span and a multiple-span green houses. According to the results of the experiment, the distribution of peak external pressure coefficient was around 30% higher in the single-span greenhouse than in the multi-span ones. The external pressure coefficient for the roof surface of the vinyl house group was, in all of the three vinyl houses, was around 20%-30% higher than that for single-span greenhouses.

The objective of this study is to help practicing engineers easily use the Clark model which is used for estimating the magnitude of design flood for small stream. A representative unit hydrograph was derived on the basis of the past rainfall-runoff data and unit hydrographs, and the storage coefficient of Clark model was estimated by using hydrograph recession analysis. Since the storage coefficient(K) is a dominating factor among the parameters of Clark method, a mulitple regression formula, which has the drainage area, main channel length and slope as parameters, is propsed to estimate K value of a basin where measured data are missing. The result of regression analysis showed that there is a correlation between a storage coefficient(K) and aforemetioned three parameters in homogenious basins. A regression formular for K was derived using these correlations in a basin of Han River, Nakdong River, Young River, Kum River and Sumjin River

식물의 작물 계수는 실제 증발산량과 잠재 증발산량의 비로 정의되어지며, 이 인자는 식생의 종류, 성장 단계 및 다양한 기후 조건에 따른 작물 재배를 위한 관개에 필요한 물의 양을 예측하는데 매우 중요한 역할을 담당한다. 지점 기반의 작물계수는 다음과 같이 FAO-56 Irrigation and Drainage에서 제시한 Single 과 dual crop coefficient 접근법을 활용하여 계산되어 진다. Single crop coefficient는 하나의 계수에 지표면에서의 증발 및 식생에서의 증산에 대한 영향을 모두 고려한 접근법이며, dual crop coefficient는 지표면에서의 증발 및 식생에서의 증산에 의한 효과를 각각 상이한 계수로 정의하여 그들의 합을 통해 작물계수를 추정되어진다. 이러한 작물계수는 효율적인 수자원 관리를 위해서 광범위한 지역에 대한 작물 계수 산출 및 분석의 필요성이 대두되고 있을 뿐만 아니라, 지점 기반의 작물 계수는 공간적인 대표성을 갖지 못하기 때문에, 실제적인 적용을 위해서는 주변의 환경적 조건을 고려한 local calibration 작업이 추가적으로 수행되어야한다. 본 연구에서는 시공간적인 연속성을 가지는 인공위성을 활용하여 작물 계수를 산정하였으며, 지점 기반 작물 계수와의 비교를 통해 검증을 실시하였다. 또한, 인공위성 기반의 작물계수와 가뭄 분석에 널리 쓰이고 있는 식생상태지수 (Vegetation Condition Index) 와의 비교를 통하여 작물 계수를 통한 광범위한 지역에서의 가뭄 분석의 가능성 또한 분석하였다

Chloride is one of the most common threats to reinforced concrete (RC) durability. Alkaline environment of concrete makes a passive layer on the surface of reinforcement bars that prevents the bar from corrosion. However, when the chloride concentration amount at the reinforcement bar reaches a certain level, deterioration of the passive protection layer occurs, causing corrosion and ultimately reducing the structure's safety and durability. Therefore, understanding the chloride diffusion and its prediction are important to evaluate the safety and durability of RC structure. In this study, the chloride diffusion coefficient is predicted by machine learning techniques. Various machine learning techniques such as multiple linear regression, decision tree, random forest, support vector machine, artificial neural networks, extreme gradient boosting annd k-nearest neighbor were used and accuracy of there models were compared. In order to evaluate the accuracy, root mean square error (RMSE), mean square error (MSE), mean absolute error (MAE) and coefficient of determination (R2) were used as prediction performance indices. The k-fold cross-validation procedure was used to estimate the performance of machine learning models when making predictions on data not used during training. Grid search was applied to hyperparameter optimization. It has been shown from numerical simulation that ensemble learning methods such as random forest and extreme gradient boosting successfully predicted the chloride diffusion coefficient and artificial neural networks also provided accurate result.
