  • Turbulent flows around two-dimensional wing sections in ground effect are analysed by incompressible RANS equations and a finite difference method. The Baldwin-Lomax algebraic turbulence model is used to simulate high Reynolds number flows. The main purpose of this study is to clarify the two-dimensional ground effect and its flow characteristics due to different ground boundary conditions, i.e., moving and fixed bottom boundary. As a first step, to validate the present numerical code, the computational result of Clark-Y(t/C 11.7%) is compared with published numerical results and experimental data. Then, NACA4412 section in ground effect is calculated for various ground clearances with two bottom boundary conditions. According to the computational results, the difference in the lift and moment simulated with the two bottom boundary conditions is negligible, but the drag force simulated by the fixed bottom is to some extent smaller than that by the moving bottom. Therefore, it can be concluded that the drag force measured in a wind tunnel with the fixed bottom could be smaller than that with the moving bottom.

  • Estimation of runoff peak is needed to assess water availability, in order to support the multifaceted water uses and functions, hence to underscore the modalities for efficient water utilization. The magnitude of storm rainfall acts as a primary input for basin level runoff computation. The rainfall-runoff linkage plays a pivotal role in water resource system management and feasibility level planning for resource distribution. Considering this importance, a case study has been carried out in the Hancheon basin of Jeju Island where distinctive hydrological characteristics are investigated for continuous storm rainfall and high permeable geological features. The study aims to estimate unit hydrograph parameters, peak runoff and peak time of storm rainfalls based on Clark unit hydrograph method. For analyzing observed runoff, five storm rainfall events were selected randomly from recent years' rainfall and HEC-hydrologic modeling system (HMS) model was used for rainfall-runoff data processing. The simulation results showed that the peak runoff varies from 164 to 548 m3/sec and peak time (onset) varies from 8 to 27 hours. A comprehensive relationship between Clark unit hydrograph parameters (time of concentration and storage coefficient) has also been derived in this study. The optimized values of the two parameters were verified by the analysis of variance (ANOVA) and runoff comparison performance were analyzed by root mean square error (RMSE) and Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency (NSE) estimation. After statistical analysis of the Clark parameters significance level was found in 5% and runoff performances were found as 3.97 RMSE and 0.99 NSE, respectively. The calibration and validation results indicated strong coherence of unit hydrograph model responses to the actual situation of historical storm runoff events.

  • This essay considers Leibniz-Clark correspondence on the nature of space and hole argument. The ontology of space had been debated under the name of substantivalism-relationism controversy. The debates between the two parties are concerned with the nature of existence of parts of space-time. Substantivalism claims that the point of space-time has existence analogous to that of material substance. Relationism argues that space-time should be understood as the framework of possible spatio-temporal relations between bodies. Although these two approaches attempt to respect theoretical context, it seems that the problems of these two interpretive schemes stems from the lack of understanding of the structure of space-time theories, especially how space-time is connected with the laws of motion. In order to appreciate the substance-relation controversy without deviating from the context of space-time theories, it is necessary then to capture how space-time theories are constituted. This essay offers the clear connection of ontology of space-time with present practices of theoretical physicists.

  • 국내에서는 유역의 설계홍수량을 결정하기 위해 강우-유출 사상에 의해 유도된 대표단위도를 활용하는 방식이 일반적으로 채택되고 있으나, 유역의 실측 호우사상이 부족한 경우 대표단위도의 신뢰성은 종종 논쟁의 여지를 갖게 된다. 이는 제한된 수의 자료를 활용하여 도출된 매개변수의 평균이나 최대/최소값으로 채택되는 대표단위도를 통해 산정되는 설계홍수량이 왜곡될 수 있는 가능성에 기인하는 것이다. 따라서 매개변수 산정 및 검정에 활용되는 사상의 수와 질이 설계홍수량 산정에 미치는 영향을 파악하는 것이 필수적이다. 본 연구에서는 가용한 호우사상의 수가 제한된 유역의 경우 Clark 단위도의 매개변수 도출에 대한 불확실성 분석을 수행하였다. 대상유역은 비교적 다량의 실측 호우사상을 갖는 국내 중규모 댐 유역으로 선정하였으며, 호우사상 모집단의 수가 N개일 때 단위도 유도에 활용되는 사상을 2개부터 N-1개까지 증가시켜 가며 분석대상이 되는 호우사상이 무작위로 선정될 경우를 가정하였다. 불확실성 분석을 수행하기 위하여 Monte Carlo Simulation을 각 호우사상 수별로 100회씩 적용하였으며, 이 때 확률변수는 등분포함수를 따르는 것으로 가정하여 각 호우사상이 선정될 가능성을 동일하게 부여하였다. 이러한 과정을 통해 선정된 호우사상별 매개변수들 중 도달시간과 저류상수의 평균값과 최소값을 대표단위도(평균, 최대)의 매개변수로 각각 채택하여 설계홍수량을 도출하였다. 그 결과 선정된 호우사상의 양과 질에 관계없이 호우사상 수가 증가함에 따라 채택되는 대표단위도의 매개변수가 안정되는 경향을 보였으며, 설계수문곡선의 첨두홍수량 분포는 음으로 왜곡되는 경향을 나타내어 설계홍수량이 과소산정될 가능성이 감소하는 결과를 보였다. 즉, 대상유역의 분석 대상 호우사상 수가 증가하면 대표단위도 매개변수 및 설계홍수량 산정결과가 안정되는 경향을 보이므로 설계홍수량 산정의 신뢰성을 향상 시킬 수 있을 것이며, 이는 향후 설계홍수량 산정 및 평가를 수행하는 기술자들의 판단도구로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

  • In this study, a multivariate time series analysis was conducted to identify various variables that impact ocean freight rates in addition to supply and demand factors. First, we used the ClarkSea Index, Clarksons Average Bulker Earnings, and Clarksons Average Tanker Earnings provided by the Shipping Intelligence as substitute variables for the dependent variable, ocean freight. The following ndependent variables were selected: World Seaborne Trade, World Fleet, Brent Crude Oil Price, World GDP Growth Rate, Industrial Production (IP OECD) Growth Rate, Interest Rate (US$ LIBOR 6 Months), and Inflation (CP I OECD) through previous studies. The time series data comprise annual data (1992-2020), and a regression analysis was conducted. Results of the regression analysis show that the World Seaborne Trade and Brent Crude Oil P rice impacted the ClarkSea Index. Only the World Seaborne Dry Bulk Trade impacted the Clarksons Average Bulker Earnings, World Seaborne Oil Trade, Brent Crude Oil Price, IP, and CP I on the Clarksons Average Tanker Earnings.

  • 기후변화와 도시화에 따른 개발사업으로 인하여 재해 위험성은 날로 증가하고 있다. 이로 인한 재해의 영향을 최소화하기 위해 각종 개발사업 시 자연재해대책법에 따라 사전에 자연재해에 따른 피해를 예방하기 위한 목적으로 재해영향평가 협의가 시행되고 있다. 재해영향평가 협의에서 홍수로 인한 재해예방을 위해 개발사업으로 인한 홍수유출 증가량 검토하고 저감 대책을 제시하게 된다. 이중 소규모 재해영향평가는 면적 5천m2 이상 5만m2 미만의 개발사업을 대상으로 실시되고 있으며, 이를 위한 첨두홍수량 산정 방법으로는 합리식, clark단위도법 등이 사용되고 있다. 소규모 유역의 첨두홍수량을 합리식, 단위도법 등으로 산정할 경우 도달시간이 매우 짧아 홍수량이 과다하게 산정된다. 이를 방지하기 위해 합리식에서는 강우지속기간을 늘리기 위해 일정 유입시간을 고려하고 있으며, 단위도법에서는 유역반응시간을 조정하고 있다. 기존의 연구에서 clark단위도법에서 저류상수 매개변수 보정을 7 ~ 10분으로 적용하도록 하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 화성, 양주, 청주지역의 소규모 재해영향평가협의 대상인 공장부지 조성사업의 홍수량 산정시 저류상수 매개변수 조정 사례를 조사하고 그 중 유역의 상황변화를 고려하지 않고 개발 후 매개변수 조정을 10분으로 적용한 10개 사업을 대상으로 선정하였다. 본 연구에서는 개발 후 매개변수 보정량을 10분을 7분으로 변경하여 홍수량을 산정하였다. 10개 사업 홍수량 산정결과 「재해영향평가등의 협의 실무지침 (2021.01, 행정안전부)」에서 제시하는 소유역 비홍수량의 범위인 25 ~ 35m3/s/km2에 8개 사업이 만족되었고, 2개 사업은 개발 후 비홍수량이 제시 범위를 다소 초과하였고, 홍수량의 증가는 4.7 ~ 16.3% 범위로 나타났다. 소규모 유역에서 저류상수 보정량이 홍수량 산정에 미치는 영향이 큰것을 감안하면 유역의 도시화등 상태변화 비율 및 소유역 면적별로 매개변수 조정량을 정량화하는 추가 연구가 필요하다.

  • Yuhan Kimberly, a joint-venture company of Korean Yuhan Company and American Kimberly-Clark, opened a premium diaper market in Korea by launching Pull-Ups which was pants-typed diapers in 1993. Pull-Ups was imported as finished goods from Kimberly-Clark. However, in spite of its huge market share in United States, it failed to land down in Korean market because of wrong positioning strategy which did not consider domestic customers' tastes. In 1996, Yuhan-Kimberly brought out a pants-typed diaper, Huggies-Toddler, to Korean market again. This paved the way for the combination of Kimberly-Clark's production power and Yuhan-Kimberly's marketing power and led to launch new product superior to Pull-Ups. However, this product was unsuccessful in the market because of wrong positioning which did not catch domestic customer's life styles such as cultural, environmental and habitual differences in toilet training, the cost increase coming from IMF crisis in Korea, weak trust within the company, weak trust within the company, and too much higher price than regular diapers. In 2005, Yuhan-Kimberly redeveloped new pants market business strategy. It was organically combined with winning product development plan, winning communication strategy and the market structure change through the pants market creation. Customer's habit, usage and attitude were studied with total 55 times market investigations. Also, all processes from planning to designing were executed in the customer's view by investigating product research, positioning research and advertisement research. Yuhan-Kimberly repositioned new product as a wearing diaper not as a toilet training diaper and launched Huggies Magic Panty as a premium product which had 25% higher price than previous Huggies. Huggies Magic Panty was recognized as a great hit product in domestic diaper market and the sales recorded 37.6 bill won in 2006, 57.2 bill won in 2007, and 90 bill won in 2008 since launching in 2005. The reason of Huggies Magic Panty's success was the repositioning strategy deduced from the precise check of customer's usage habit. It was the winning strategy of Huggies that were market investigation in order to survive in domestic baby goods market where a lot of companies struggled intensively, the exact positioning based on its market investigation and aggressive 360 degree communication strategy to give customers impressions efficiently.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the applicability of Single Linear Reservoir (SLR) model for runoff computations of small river basins in Korea. In the existing watershed flood routing methods the storage coefficient(K), which is the dominant parameter in the model, has been proposed to be computed in terms of the wqtershed characteristics. However, in the prsent study, the rainfall characteristics in addition to the watershed characteristics were taken into account in the multiple regression analysis for more accurate estimation of storage coefficient. The parameters finally adopted for the regressions were the drainge are, mean stream slope of the watershed, and the duration and total dffective amount of rainfalls. To verify the applicability of SLR model the computed results by SLR model with K determined by the regression equation were compared with the observed gydrographs, and also with those by other runoff computation methods; namely, the Clark method, nakayasu's synthetic unit hydrograph method and Nash model. The results showed that the present zSLR model gave the best results among these methods in the case of small river basins, but for the whatersheds with significant draingage area the Clark method gave the best results. However, it was speculated that the SLR model could also be accurately applied for flood compuatation in large wagersheds provided that the regression for storage coefficients were made with the actual data obtained in the large river basins.

  • Purpose: To evaluate treatment outcomes of malignant melanoma and to analyze the factors that contributes to outcomes. Materials and Methods: We reviewed the 51 cases of malignant melanoma from March, 1997 to March, 2004 and were followed up more than 5 years. Average age was 49.4. We compared 5-year survival rate for each age, gender, site of occurrence, depth of tumor, metastasis of regional lymph node and immuno-chemo therapy. Results: 5-year survival rate was 88.5% for the age group below 65, 88.0% for the age group 65 and above, 62.5% for male and 100% for female. 5-year survival rate for the site of occurrence showed 100% in upper extremities, and 80.0% in lower extremities and 100% in other sites. 5-year survival rate was 100% for the stage below Clark stage III and 79.3% for the stage above IV. In surgical resection, 5-year survival rate was 66.7% for lymph node metastasis group and 94.9% for non-lymph node metastasis group. Conclusion: The prognostic factors of malignant melanoma were gender, tumor site, depth of tumor (Clark's stage) and metastasis of regional lymph node. But, there was no relation between the age and the survival rate in our study.
