One of the most important research areas on remote sensing is spectral unmixing of hyper-spectral data. For spectral unmixing of hyper spectral data, accurate land cover information is necessary. But obtaining accurate land cover information is difficult process. Obtaining land cover information from high-resolution data may be a useful solution. In this study spectral signature of endmembers on ASTER acquired in October was calculated from land cover information on IKONOS acquired in September. Then the spectral signature of endmembers applied to ASTER images acquired on January and March. Then the result of spectral unmxing of them evauateted. The spectral signatures of endmembers could be applied to different seasonal images. When it applied to an ASTER image which have similar zenith angle to the image of the spectral signatures of endmembers, spectral unmixing result was reliable. Although test data has different zenith angle from the image of spectral signatures of endmembers, the spectral unmixing results of urban and vegetation were reliable.

In this paper, a procedure for deriving of multiple fault detection test sets is presented for fan-out reconvergent combinational logic networks. A fan-out network is decomposed into a set of fan-out free subnetworks by breaking the internal fan-out points, and the minimal detecting test sets for each subnetwork are found separately. And then, the compatible tests amonng each test set are combined maximally into composite tests to generate primary input binary vectors. The technique for generating minimal test experiments which cover all the possible faults is illustrated in detail by examples.

Phosphogypsum is a by-product from the phosphoric acid process for manufacturing fertilizers. It consists mainly of $(CaSO_4.2H_2O)$ and contains some impurities such as$(P_2O_5)$, 불소$(F_-)$, and organic substances. The annual world production of this material is up to 150 million tons and is up to 1.57 million tons in Korea. Therefore studies describe application of phosphogypsum to daily and middle cover materials in landfill. For this Purpose, experiments were performed to evaluate the engineering properties of the material by sieve analysis, specific gravity, consistency of soil, compaction, CBR, permeability, mi environmental characteristics of leaching test, reactor test. The results of this study are as follows : The mixing and layer conditions of CBR value are 6.2~6.3%, coefficient of permeability is $\alpha$$\times10_{-5}~10_{-6}cm/sec$. And leaching test results are far below than those of regulatory requirement of Waste Management Act, Soil Environment Preservation Act in Korea and RCRA in USA. Therefore phosphogypsum can be used as daily and intermediate cover materials in landfill.

World widely, the occurrences of earthquakes have been increased recently. Speculating from cases of earthquakes in the world, it is reported that damages have been made underground structures like cut-and-cover tunnels, especially on the upper of tunnel with a shallow depth and the backfilled area adjacently by earthquakes. Earthquakes have a tendency to increase recently in Korea but it is deficient in seismic design criteria. In this study, Shaking table test on both soil and EPS blocks was performed to analyze the efficiency of the seismic performance of the cut-and-cover tunnels according to characteristic of backfill materials and embanking material. It turned out to be effective in improving the seismic performance according to analysis of strain and bending stress of tunnel by earthquakes.

Deterioration of reinforced concrete structures in corrosive environment is tend to be accelerated due to ingress of aggressive ion such as chloride ion. Chloride-induced corrosion is affected by various factors such as cover concrete qualities, width of existing cracks, and cover depth of concrete. However, the allowable crack width of RC structure in design code does not consider the concrete material properties and conditions of construction except the cover depth. In this paper, an equation for allowable crack width is proposed to consider the cover concrete quality, crack width, and cover depth. Crack width, cover depth, and water-cement ratio of concrete are selected as influencing factors on corrosion of reinforcement for rapid chloride tests. From test results, the relationships between the factors and corrosion are derived. Finally, the equation for allowable crack width is derived in terms of concrete compressive strength and cover depth. The presented equation is verified by comparative calculations with design code variables.

Bond strength of reinforcing bar to high-performance concrete using belite cement is explored using beam end test specimen. The key parameters for the bond test are slump of concrete, top bar effect, and strength of concrete in addition to concrete covers. Specimen failed in the typical brittle bond failure splitting the concrete cover as the wedging action. The test results show that the specimens with belire cement concrete show higher bond strength than those with portland cement concrete. Bond strength of the top bar is less than bond strength of bottom bar, but the top bar factor satisfies the modification factor for top reinforcement. The results also show that the bond strength is function of the square root of concrete compressive strength and cover thickness. The recently developed high-strength and high-slump concrete with belite cement performs well in terms of bond strength to reinforcing steel.

The objective of this study is to quantitatively evaluate the effects of various SAR speckle reduction methods for multisource land-cover classification by backpropagation neural network, especially over the coastal region. The land-cover classification using neural network has an advantage over conventional statistical approaches in that it is distribution-free and no prior knowledge of the statistical distributions of the classes is needed. The goal of multisource land-cover classification acquired by different sensors is to reduce the classification error, and consequently SAR can be utilized an complementary tool to optical sensors. SAR speckle is, however, an serious limiting factor when it is exploited for land-cover classification. In order to reduce this problem. we test various speckle methods including Frost, Median, Kuan and EPOS. Interpreting the weights about training pixel samples, the “Importance Value” of each SAR images that reduced speckle can be estimated based on its contribution to the classification. In this study, the “Importance Value” is used as a criterion of the effectiveness.

Low carbon steel is usually used as the outer panel with low base metal resistance compared to the inner reinforced panel made with high strength steel, which makes it difficult to form a robust nugget. To overcome welding problems of a dissimilar three-sheet combination made of SGACEN, DP980 and CP1180, a cover plate was inserted between the upper electrode and SGACEN. The quality of the nugget was analyzed by comparing the welding signals and cross sectional images under maximum heat input both with and without the cover plate. To analyze the mechanical of weld properties, a hardness test analysis was conducted. To enhance the reliability of experimental results, temperature distributions were obtained using a simulation program. The method of inserting a cover plate led to a change in the heat input, which induced a larger nugget size between SGACEN and DP980.

The research was performed to investigate the weathering characteristics of fruit growth paper bags. The bags were used to cover fruits such as grapes and pears. And then they were collected after 30 and 60 days exposure at the orchard. The physical and optical properties of the bags tended to decrease with the exposure times. The larger change on the properties were found on the papers exposed for 30 days. The cover paper for pear showed the largest density changes. The air permeability were decreased with the exposure time in all bags. The cover paper for pear showed the very low values of air permeability. The mechanical properties of the fruit bags showed to be gradually decreased with the length of exposure time. The tear index showed the largest differences. The cover paper for pear showed the rapid decrease on the mechanical properties after 60 days of the exposure. The inner paper, however, showed the strength enough to cover the fruits. The precipitation showed more effect on the degradation of fruit growth paper bags than the light hours.
