This paper is a study on model method for estimating system inputs from vibration responses, which is one of indirect input identification methods in frequency domain. The method has advantages over direct inverse method especially when points of operational inputs are inaccessible so that artificial excitation forces cannot be applied to obtain frequency response functions of the complete system. Procedures of extended modal model method are proposed and checked by numerical experiment. Mechanisms of error propagation, i.e., how errors in modal parameters such as poles nad mode shape vectors affect estimation of the input forces, are illustrated. Then, in order to counteract the error propagation, discrete modal filter approach is taken in this paper to compute the inversion of modal matrix in which the most serious errors seem to be generated. Further, a Reduced form of Modified Reciprocal Modal Vector(RMRMV) is proposed for estimating multiple inputs. It is shown to have smaller orthogonality error than MRMV.

Most structures are expected to deform beyond the limit of linearly elastic behavior when subjected to strong ground motion. Seismic evaluation of structure requires an estimation of the structural performance in terms of displacement demand imposed by earthquakes on the structure. The nonlinear response history analysis(NRHA) among various nonlinear analysis methods is the most accurate to compute seismic performance of structures, but it is time-consuming and necessitate more efforts. The nonlinear approximate methods, which is more practical and reliable tools for predicting seismic behavior of structures, are extensively studied. Among them, the capacity spectrum method(CSM) is conceptually simple, but the iterative procedure is time-consuming and may sometimes lead to no solution or multiple solutions. This paper considers a nonlinear direct spectrum method(NDSM) to evaluate seismic performance of mixed building structures without iterative computations, given dynamic property T from stiffness skeleton curve and nonlinear pseudo acceleration $A_{y}$/g and/or ductility ratio $\mu$ from response spectrum. The nonlinear response history analysis has been performed and analyzed with various earthquakes for estimation of reliability and practicality of NDSM with mixed building structures.

This paper estimates a matching function in Korea by using the method of Borowczyk-Martins et al. (2013) in order to mitigate endogeneity problems. The endogeneity was controlled through the GMM estimation by approximating the unobserved matching efficiency with the ARMA(p,q) process. The monthly data from the Economically Active Population Survey and Labor Force Survey at Establishments from June 2009 to December 2019 were used for the estimation. The matching elasticity that indicates the elasticity of new hires with respect to vacancies was estimated to be 0.859. When excluding 2019 samples, which had a large number of direct jobs provided by the government, the matching elasticity was lowered to 0.755, but still higher than that of other countries.

This study attempts to propose an evaluation considering the property of concrete pore which affects the deterioration of neutralization and the rebar resistance of concrete. Understanding pore property of concrete in using extent, for practical using of concrete manufacturing condition. basic quality property and durability estimation etc, the results of the experiment are as follows. 1) The result of analysis pore property of every specimen with the method of area ratio, in limitation of $10^{-6}{\sim}10^{-5}m$, the pore distribution ratio was maximum. It was high value as W/C was increased and the unit cement content was decreased. 2) In case of using admixture. the volume of pores was some increased as variation of mixing content. In high W/C range, it was very increased compared with plain concrete. 3) Concerned with compressive strength and volume of pores in hardened concrete, it is possible compressive strength estimation using the property of concrete pores. 4) Direct measurement of concrete pore property is difficult. the valuation of the dynamic modulus of elasticity using ultrasonic wave velocity was available. 5) Quantitatively evaluation of concrete structure durability by past result of pore distribution estimation, and it can be estimative scale of property study on the concrete materials.

The localization of sources has a numerous number of applications. To estimate the position of sources, the relative time delay between two or more received signals for the direct signal must be determined. Although the GCC (Generalized Cross-Correlation) method is the most popular technique, an approach based on CCA (Canonical Correlation Analysis) was also proposed for the TDE (Time Delay Estimation). In this paper, we propose a new adaptive algorithm based on CCA in order to utilized the sparsity in the eigenvector of CCA based time delay estimator. The proposed algorithm uses the eigenvector corresponding to the maximum eigenvalue with log-sum regularization in order to utilize the sparsity in the eigenvector. We have performed simulations for several SNR(signal to noise ratio)s, showing that the new CCA based algorithm can estimate the time delays more accurately than the conventional CCA and GCC based TDE algorithms.

In this paper a super-resolution time delay estimation algorithm is developed for real-time locating systems (RTLSs) that employ a direct-sequence spread spectrum technique, along with its performance analysis in multipath environments. The classical correlation method provides relatively good performance in line-of-sight (LOS) environments but its performance seriously degrades in multipath environments, especially when signals are spaced closer than a PN chip. Therefore we shall develop a super-resolution time delay estimation algorithm that may estimate the time delays of multipath signals even in closely spaced multipath environments using the MUSIC algorithm for direction-of-arrival estimation and analyze its performance by applying the algorithm to the ISO/IEC 24730-2.1 RTLS system.

Direct estimation of the pollutant load(PL) should be carried out by the data filling in the missing intervals using an appropriate method because it is impossible in which the flow discharge(water quantity) or water quality(WQ) time-series data set have the missing intervals. In this study, the several methods estimating the water quality in the missing periods are suggested and the WQ and pollutants load change patterns are compared and evaluated based on the reproducible degree of the available data change patterns. The most appropriate method is finally suggested and the contribution factor deciding the influence degree and the PL characteristics of the river estuary is also suggested. Based on the PL estimation results using the several methods, the interpolation method considering the fluctuation of the available WQ data is shown to be most efficient. The PL patterns of the Han river estuary is classified as the discharge-dominated type. The data filling process is inevitable and the WQ estimation using the efficient and effective method should be carried out in order to estimate reasonable PL.

Estimation of groundwater recharge is one of the most critical issues in sustainable management of groundwater resources. This study estimated groundwater recharge in the Junggwae-Boeun area in Ulsan City, by using the water balance and hydrogeological characteristics of geology and soil. Evapotranspiration was computed by using the Thornthwaite method, and direct runoff was determined by using the SCS-CN technique. Groundwater recharge was obtained as 266 mm/a (20.6% of the average annual precipitation, 1296 mm/a), with 779 mm/a (60.1%) of evapotranspiration and 119 mm/a (9.2%) of direct runoff. Precipitation and groundwater recharge was highly correlated, comparing with the relationships between precipitation and evapotranspiration, and between precipitation and direct runoff. This fact indicates that groundwater recharge responds more sensitively to precipitation than evapotranspiration and direct runoff do.

Accurate estimation of shear flows in thin-walled beam section is the key issue to evaluate shear stress distribution of ship hull transverse section under the shear forces acting on hull girder. It is regarded that the method using the warping functions obtained by finite element formulation is the state of the art of this field. Recently, however, IACS took effect the new version of CSR in which direct calculation process of shear flow was suggested. In the direct calculation process, shear flow of ship hull section can be obtained by the addition of determinate and indeterminate shear flows calculated respectively. So, in this paper, the shear flow evaluation codes based on the process proposed by IACS CSR and warping function based method were developed respectively. The calculated results of shear flows for the several examples of ship sections were compared with each other and considered in detail.
