A real-time unmeasured dynamic response prediction process for the nuclear power plant pressure pipeline is proposed and its performance is tested in the test-loop system (KAERI). The aim of the process is to predict unmeasurable or unreachable dynamic responses such as acceleration, velocity, and displacement by using a limited amount of directly measured physical responses. It is achieved by combining a well-constructed finite element model and robust inverse force identification algorithm. The pressure pipeline system is described by using the displacement-pressure vibro-acoustic formulation to consider fully filled liquid effect inside the pipeline structure. A robust multiphysics modal projection technique is employed for the real-time sensor synchronized prediction. The inverse force identification method is also derived and employed by using Bathe's time integration method to identify the full-field responses of the target system from the modal domain computation. To validate the performance of the proposed process, an experimental test is extensively performed on the nuclear power plant pressure pipeline test-loop under operation conditions. The results show that the proposed identification process could well estimate the unmeasured acceleration in both frequency and time domain faster than 32,768 samples per sec.

The objective of this study is to develop a Stability Evaluation System for retaining walls to assess their safety in real-time during excavation. A ground investigation is typically conducted before construction to gather information about the soil properties and predict wall stability. However, these properties may not accurately reflect the actual ground being excavated. To address this issue, the study employed a differential evolution algorithm to estimate the soil parameters of the actual ground. The estimated results were then used as input for an artificial neural network to evaluate the stability of the retaining walls. The study achieved an average accuracy of over 90% in predicting differential settlement, wall displacement, anchor force, and structural stability of the retaining walls. If implemented at actual excavation sites, this approach would enable real-time prediction of wall stability and facilitate effective safety management. Overall, the developed Stability Evaluation System offers a promising solution for ensuring the stability of retaining walls during construction. By incorporating real-time soil parameter analysis, it enhances the accuracy of stability predictions and contributes to proactive safety management in excavation projects.

Building Information Models(BIM) provides rich geometric and attribute information throughout the entire life cycle of a building and infrastructure object, while Geographic Information System(GIS) enables the detail analysis of urban issues based on the geo-spatial information in support of decision-making. The Integration of BIM and GIS data makes it possible to create a digital twin of the land in order to effectively manage smart cities. In the perspective of integrating BIM data into GIS systems, this study performs literature reviews on georeferencing techniques and identifies limitations in carrying out the georeferencing process using attribute information associated with absolute coordinates probided by Industry Foundation Classes(IFC) as a BIM standard. To address these limitations, an automated georeferencing process is proposed as a pilot study to position a IFC model with the Local Coordinate System(LCS) in GIS environments with the Reference Coordinate System(RCS). An evaluation of the proposed approach over a BIM model demonstrates that the proposed method is expected to be a great help for automatically georeferencing complex BIM models in a GIS environment, and thus provides benefits for efficient and reliable BIM and GIS integration in practice.

Urban air mobility (UAM) is emerging as an innovative transportation solution for cities. However, the potential noise impact on urban life must be carefully examined. Continuous exposure to UAM noise, with its unique frequency characteristics and temporal variability, may adversely affect citizens' health by causing sleep disorders, cardiovascular disease, and cognitive impairmenet, particularly in children. NASA has formed a UAM Noise Working Group to study this issue comprehensively. In Korea, the Seoul Metropolitan Government's UAM demonstration project is expected to accelerate related research and development. Scientific analysis, including noise measurement, prediction modeling, and health impact assessment, must be prioritized. Measures to minimize noise should be established based on this evidence, such as optimizing flight modes, developing noise reduction technologies, and establishing new noise management standards. Transparency and social consensus are crucial throughout this process. Expert review and open communication with civil society are necessary to address related concerns. Sharing demonstration project results and providing opportunities to experience UAM noise through digital twin simulations can help address public concerns and build social consensus. Proactively and scientifically tackling noise issues is essential for the sustainable development and successful integration of UAM into daily life.

In this study, synthetic time series wind data was generated numerically using a second-order Markov chain. One year of wind data in 2020 measured by the AWS on Wido Island was used to investigate the statistics for measured wind data. Both the transition probability matrix and the cumulative transition probability matrix for annual hourly mean wind speed were obtained through statistical analysis. Probability density distribution along the wind speed and autocorrelation according to time were compared with the first- and the second-order Markov chains with various lengths of time series wind data. Probability density distributions for measured wind data and synthetic wind data using the first- and the second-order Markov chains were also compared to each other. For the case of the second-order Markov chain, some improvement of the autocorrelation was verified. It turns out that the autocorrelation converges to zero according to increasing the wind speed when the data size is sufficiently large. The generation of artificial wind data is expected to be useful as input data for virtual digital twin wind turbines.

Efforts to build metaverse platform services and expand profit structure are developing in a more realistic direction. The metaverse, which has been centered on 'creation and economy' and 'discovery', will evolve into an 'experience' metaverse, creating tangible business effects where satisfaction with the user experience leads directly to purchase. In this paper, the condition of the avatar used as a medium of economic activity between the metaverse platformer and the user and the business utilization plan were sought. In addition, a new 'metaverse business model' was proposed based on 'experience, discovery, creation and economy', and in particular, it was intended to lay the foundation for the experience metaverse to further develop in the form of 'business experience'. In addition, a survey was conducted on the 'application of metaverse service and avatar' targeting the MZ generation, the main customer base of the current metaverse service. In order to provide a service that satisfies the user, it was concluded that the appearance of the avatar needs to be changed according to the purpose and function. Accordingly, we propose an 'selective switch mode' that can change the avatar's appearance at the desired timing according to the 'experience' and 'purchase purpose' of each metaverse service area. In addition, by strategically utilizing the 'Digilog' psychology, we believe that it will be possible to promote the influx of new users while increasing the loyalty of existing users to the platform. Through the establishment of 'avatar purchase system' by 'selective switch mode' and 'avatar decorating system' by 'digilog' strategy, the experience metaverse, which has been focused on 'digital twin experience' so far, is As it develops into 'business experience', it is expected that the user experience can be further satisfied.

급격한 기후변화에 기인하여 전 세계적으로 거듭되는 돌발홍수로 인한 피해가 급격히 증가하고 있는 실정이다. 우리나라에서도 최근 중소 규모의 하천 뿐 아니라 도시 생활하천, 도심지 저지대에서 갑작스런 홍수와 침수로 인해 많은 인명과 재산 피해를 경험하고 있다. 이런 문제를 인식하여 최근 정부차원에서 다양한 센서와 인공지능에 기반하는 많은 인프라 및 연구 투자가 이루어지고 있지만, 높은 설치 및 운영 비용과 우리나라의 복잡한 하천 환경 특성으로 인해 소하천이나 도심지 저지대에서는 그 효율성을 제대로 발휘하지 못하고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 주변환경의 변화에 강인한 복합 센서단말을 통해, 하천 정보(유량, 유속, 수위 등)을 실시간 측정하고, 해당지역의 특성을 고려한 하천 또는 저지대의 위험도를 스스로 판단할 수 있는 기술을 제안한다. 또한, 본 논문에서는 제안한 저비용 초소형의 단말 장치로 지점의 하천 정보를 실시간 측정하여 IoT망을 통해 3차원 하천 디지털트윈 모델로 전달하여, 유속과 수위를 그대로 재연함으로써, 하천 침수 위험 감시의 효율성을 검증하였다. 3차원 DEM(Digital Elevation Models) 데이터와 실제 하천을 관측한 데이터를 이용한 디지털트윈 검증 결과, 데이터 전송 지연시간을 감안하여 3초 이내에 하천의 수위와 유속이 3차원 모델에 반영되는 것을 확인하였다. 이 결과로부터 열악한 환경에서도 실시간 하천 상황을 원거리에서 모니터링 할 수 있으며, 강우와 유출에 따른 하천 홍수 메카니즘을 새롭게 시뮬레이션할 수 있는 방법론을 제시할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

최근 열화상 카메라의 수요 증가와 함께 열화상 카메라를 활용한 연구 또한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 그 중, 기존의 드론에 열화상 카메라를 부착하여 촬영하는 등의 단순 촬영에서 나아가 열 영상 처리를 통한 디지털 트윈 구축, 영상화된 데이터를 통한 관리 시스템 구축 등 열 영상 처리 후 데이터를 응용한 연구가 증가하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 열화상 카메라를 처리하는 과정에서 생성되는 화소값인 DN값(Digital Number)이 실제 표면 온도로 변환하기 위한 관계식 유도과정에서 방사율이 DN값에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위한 연구를 진행하였다. DN값은 열 영상의 스펙트럼 밴드 값을 나타내는 숫자로 열 영상 데이터를 구성하는 중요한 요소이다. 하지만 DN값은 실제 표면 온도를 표시하는 온도 값이 아닌 열이 높고 낮음을 밝기로 표시한 밝기 값으로 실제 표면 온도와 비 선형적인 관계이다. 그러므로 열화상 카메라로 획득한 영상 이미지의 DN값을 실제 표면 온도와 관계성을 보일 수 있다면 데이터를 처리하기 수월하며, 더 많은 활용성을 기대할 수 있다. 그러므로 본 연구에서는 우선, 실제 표면 온도와 열 영상의 DN값의 관계를 분석하고, 열화상 카메라와 같은 원리로 작용하는 비접촉 열화상 온도계가 실제 표면 온도에 근접한 참값으로 변환할 수 있도록 방사 조정을 진행하였다. 그 결과 실제 표면 온도 및 DN값의 관계 그래프와 방사 조정된 비접촉 열화상 온도계 및 DN값의 관계 그래프가 유사한 선형관계를 보였으며 방사율을 조정하기 전보다 조정한 후의 비접촉 온도가 실제 표면 온도에 더 근접한 결과를 얻었다.
