This study examines the seismic failure of RC low-rise building structures having irregularities at the ground story during the 15 November 2017 Pohang, Korea, earthquake, $M_w=5.4$, which is the second strongest since the government began monitoring them in 1978 in South Korea. Some 2,000 private houses were damaged or destroyed in this earthquake. Particularly, serious damage to the piloti story of RC low-rise residential building structures of fewer than five stories was observed within 3 km of the epicenter with brittle shear failure of columns and walls due to severe torsional behavior. Buildings below six stories constructed before 2005 did not have to comply with seismic design requirements, so confinement detailing of columns and walls also led to inadequate performance. However, some buildings constructed after 2005 were damaged at the flexible side of the piloti story due to the high torsional irregularity. Based on these results, this study focuses on the problems of the seismic torsion design approach in current building codes.

Fluoranthene, a common polycyclicaromatic hydrocarbon (PAH), exhibits phototoxicity which may affect aquatic organisms. The eventual goal of this study is to develop a biomarker of Japanese medaka (Oryzias latipes) used in monitoring hazardous chemicals in the ecosystem. In this study we investigated neural toxicity of fluoranthene in Japanese medaka (Oryzias latipes) along with comparative analysis of corresponding behavioral response. The untreated individuals shooed normal behavioral characteristics (i. e., smooth and linear movements). The treated fish, however, showed stopping and abrupt change of orientation (100 ppb), and severely reduced locomotive activity and enhanced surfacing activity (1,000 ppb). Treatment of the medaka fish with fluoranthene caused a significant suppresson of acetycholine esterase (AChE) activities in the body portion but not in the head portion. When fish were exposed to 1,000 ppb of fluoranthene for 24 hr, the body AChE activities decreased from 126.${\pm}$31.89 (nmoles substrate hydrolyzed per min per mg protein) to 49.51${\pm}$11.99. Expressions of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) protein in the different organs from both head and body portions were comparatively analyzed using an immunohistochemical technique. Five organs of the medaka fish showing a strong TH protein expression were the olfactory bulb, hypothalamus, optic lobe, pons and myelencephalon regions. This study provides molecular and neurobehavioral bases of a biomonitoring system for toxic chemicals using fish as a model organism.

In this study, chlorine dose at water storage tank was predicted to meet the recommended guideline for free chlorine residual in drinking water distribution system, using EPANET which is a computer program that performs extended Period simulation of hydraulic and water quality behavior within pressurized pipe networks. The results may be summarized as follows. The decay of chlorine residual by season varied considerably in the following order; in summer ($25^{\circ}C$) > spring and fall (15$^{\circ}C$) > winter (5$^{\circ}C$). For re-chlorination at water storage tank by season, season-varying chlorine dose was required at its maximum of 1.00 mg/l in summer and minimum of 0.40 mg/l in winter as free chlorine residual. The decay of chlorine residual through out the networks increased with water age spent by a parcel of water in the network except for some points with low water demand. In conclusion, the season-varying chlorine dose as well as the monitoring of water quality parameters at the some points which showed high decay of chlorine residual may be necessary to deliver the safe drinking water.

정보시스템 아웃소싱(outsourcing)의 적용 범위와 그 규모가 증대함에 따라, 아웃 소싱은 정보시스템의 관리에서 근본적인 이슈로 등장하게 되었다. 정보시스템 아웃소싱의 중요성이 인식되었으나, 그에 대한 실증적 연구는 매우 미흡한 설정이다. 본 연구의 주요 목적은 정보시스템 아웃소싱에 있어 고객회사(client firm)와 서비스 제공업자(vendor)간의 관계의 성공 및 실패에 영향을 미치는 요인을 조사하는 것이다. 본 연구의 연구 모델은 관 계적거래이론(relational exchange theory), 커뮤니케이션 행동(communication behavior), 거래비용분석(transaction cost analysis) 등의 조직간관계(interorganizational relationship) 이론에 기반을 두고 작성되었다. 미국의 207개 회사의 정보시스템 아웃소싱 설문조사에 의 하여 다음과 같은 연구결과가 도출되었다. (1) 서비스 제공업자의 능력(vendor capability), 관계결속성(solidarity), 관계지속성(continuity expectation), 유연성(flexibility), 서비스업자의 활동에 대한 모니터링(monitoring of the vendor), 참여도(participation) 등이 아웃소싱 관 계의 성공과 양의 상관관계를 가지고 있으며, (2) 역할연합도(role integrity), 자산특이성 (asset specificity) 등은 아웃소싱 관계의 성공과 음의 관계를 가지고 있는 것으로 나타났 다. 이 결과에 의하면, 비관계적 거래(discrete exchange) 보다는, 관계적 거래(relational exchange)에 기반을 두어 아웃소싱 관계를 운영하는 것이 아웃소싱의 성공적인 구현을 필 수적으로 보여진다. 이 연구 결과를 기초로 하여 아웃소싱 대상 업무의 선택, 서비스 제공 업자의 선택, 그리고 아웃소싱 관계의 지속적인 관리를 위한 지침을 제시하였다.

In this paper, we present the simultaneous measurement of the fabricaition strain and temperature during and after cure of unsymmetric composite laminate uising fiber optic sensors. Fiber Bragg grating/extrinsic Fabry-Perot interferometric (FBG/EFPl) hybrid sensors are used to measure those measurands. The characteristic matrix of sensor is analytically derived and measurements can be done without sensor calibration. A wavelength-swept fiber laser is utilized as a light source. FBG/EFPI sensors are embedded in a graphite/epoxy unsymmetric cross-ply composite laminate at different direction and different location. We perform the real time measurement of fabrication strains and temperatures at two points of the composite laminate during cure process in an autoclave. Also, the thermal strains and temperatures of the fabricated laminate are measured in thermal chamber. Through these experiments, we can provide a basis for the efficient smart processing of composite and know the thermal behavior of unsymmetric cross-ply composite laminate.

본 연구는 2002년 1월부터 2010년 4월까지의 기간 동안 우리나라 주식형 펀드의 자료를 이용하여 교차보조의 존재 여부에 대한 분석을 수행하였다. 분석 결과, 전체적으로 운용보수가 낮은 펀드로부터 운용보수가 높은 펀드로 성과의 이전이 이루어져 운용사가 투자자의 이익보다는 운용사의 이익을 극대화하는 행동을 선택함을 확인할 수 있었으며, 이러한 경향은 2008년 이후 강화된 것으로 나타났다. 또한 설정된 지 오래된 펀드로부터 신생 펀드로의 교차보조와 전 분기 수익률이 높은 펀드로의 성과 이전이 존재하나 2008년 이후 이러한 경향은 완화된 것을 확인하였다. 이러한 분석 결과는, 투자자 보호를 위해 투자자의 이익을 해할 가능성이 있는 거래에 대한 면밀한 감독과 운용사의 운용능력에 대한 평가가 종합적으로 이루어질 필요가 있음을 시사한다.

Unsaturated $Cr(CO)_x(1{\leq}x{\leq}5)$molecules were generated in the gas phase from photolysis of $Cr(CO)_6$vapor in He using an unfocussed weak UV laser pulse and their reactions with $O_2$ and $N_2O$ have been studied. The formation and disappearance of the ground state CrO molecules were identified by monitoring laser-induced fluorescence(LIF) intensities vs delay time between the photolysis and probe pulses. The photolysis laser power dependence as well as the delay time dependence of LIF intensities from the CrO orange system showed different behavior as those from ground state Cr atoms, suggesting that the ground state CrO molecules were generated from the reaction between $O_2/N_2O$ and photo-fragments of $Cr(CO)_6$ by one photon absorption. The depletion rate constants for the ground state CrO by $O_2$ and $N_2O$ are $5.4{\pm}0.2{\times}10^{-11}$ and $6.5{\pm}0.4{\times}10^{-12}cm^3molecule^{-1}s^{-1}$, respectively.

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are likely to be more prevalent as their cost-effectiveness improves. The spectrum of applications for WSNs spans multiple domains. In environmental sciences, in particular, they are on the way to become an essential technology for monitoring the natural environment and the dynamic behavior of transient physical phenomena over space. Existing sensor network query processors (SNQPs) have also demonstrated that in-network processing is an effective and efficient means of interaction with WSNs for performing queries over live data. Inspired by these findings, this paper investigates the question as to whether spatio-temporal and historical analysis can be carried over WSNs using distributed query-processing techniques. The emphasis of this work is on the spatial, temporal and historical aspects of sensed data, which are not adequately addressed in existing SNQPs. This paper surveys the novel approaches of storing the data and execution of spatio-temporal and historical queries. We introduce the challenges and opportunities of research in the field of in-network storage and in-network spatio-temporal query processing as well as illustrate the current status of research in this field. We also present new areas where the spatio-temporal and historical query processing can be of significant importance.

The echolocation calls of bats can provide useful information about species that are generally difficult to observe in the field. In many cases characteristics of call structure can be used to identify species and also to obtain information about aspects of the bat's ecology. We describe and compare the echolocation call structure of 14 of the 21 bat species found in Korea, for most of which the ecology and behavior are poorly understood. In total, 1,129 pulses were analyzed from 93 echolocation call sequences of 14 species. Analyzed pulses could be classified into three types according to the pulse shape: FM/CF/FM type, FM type and FM/QCF type. Pulse structures of all species were consistent with previous studies, although geographic variation may be indicated in some species. Overall classification rate provided by the canonical discriminant analysis was relatively low. Especially in the genera Myotis and Murina, there are large overlaps in spectral and temporal parameters between species. On the other hand, classification rates for the FM/QCF type species were relatively high. The results show that acoustic monitoring could be a powerful tool for assessing bat activity and distribution in Korea, at least for FM/QCF and FM/CF/FM species.

최근 하수처리, 홍수조절, 광산침출수, 농업유출수 등의 처리에 습지를 이용하려는 시도가 증가하고 있다. 하지만 장기모니터링의 어려움으로 인해 습지에 대한 장기간의 자료들이 부족하여 습지의 올바른 이용이 어려운 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 장기간의 자료 생성을 목적으로 한 수문분석의 일환으로 장기유출 수문모형인 SWAT(Soil and Water Assessment Tool)모형을 이용하여 토평천 유역의 우포, 목포, 사지포, 쪽지벌에 대한 저류량을 모의하였다. 이를 바탕으로 토평천 유역에 천변저류지를 조성하는 가상 시나리오를 작성하여 조성된 천변저류지의 저류량 거동을 분석하였다. 천변저류지의 조성에 따른 우포늪의 저류량 변화를 분석한 결과 천변저류지 조성에 따라 우포늪도 일정 정도의 영향을 받을 수 있음이 파악되었다.
