  • This study evaluated the injection rate and the injection efficiency of the artificial recharge in the upper drought-prone watershed region, where the remaining water was used for injection, by using a numerical model to secure water during a drought. As a result of a numerical model under the condition of diverse injection rates per a well and hydraulic characteristics of the aquifer, the optimal injection rate per a well was estimated as 50.0 ㎥/day, and the injection efficiency was simulated as 33.2% to 81.2% of the total injection volume. As the injection time was shorter, the injection efficiency tented to increase non-linearly. As the injection rate increased, the residual storage in aquifer increased and available groundwater amount also increased, which could be advantageous for drought relief. For a more accurate assessment of injection efficiency, the model will be validated using the field injection data and optimum scenarios will enable the efficient operation of the artificial recharge system in the study area.

  • This study investigated the damage range of the debris flow to predict the amount of collapsed soil in a landslide event. The height of the collapsed slope and the distance traveled by the collapsed soil were used to predict the total trajectory distance using a random walk model. Debris flow trajectory probabilities were calculated through 10,000 Monte Carlo simulations and were used to calculate the damage range as measured from the landslide scar to its toe. Compiled information on debris flows that occurred in the Cheonwangbong area of Mt. Jirisan was used to test the accuracy of the proposed random walk model in estimating the damage range of debris flow. Results of the comparison reveal that the proposed model shows reasonable accuracy in estimating the damage range of debris flow and that using 10 m × 10 m cells allows the damage range to be reproduced with satisfactory precision.

  • Smart water cities (SWC) are urban municipalities that utilizes modern innovations in managing and preserving the urban water cycle in the city; with the purpose of securing sustainability and improving the quality of life of the urban population. Understanding the different urban water characteristics and management strategies of cities situate a baseline in the development of evaluation scheme in determining whether the city is smart and sustainable. This research herein aims to develop measurements and evaluation for SWC Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), and set up a unified global standard and certification scheme. The assessment for SWC is performed in technical, as well as governance and prospective aspects. KPI measurements under Technical Pillar assess the cities' use of technologies in providing sufficient water supply, monitoring water quality, strengthening disaster resilience, minimizing hazard vulnerability, and maintaining and protecting the urban water ecosystem. Governance and Prospective Pillar on the other hand, evaluates the social, economic and administrative systems set in place to manage the water resources, delivering water services to different levels of society. The performance assessment is composed of a variety of procedures performed in a quantitative and qualitative manner, such as computations through established equations, interviews with authorities in charge, field survey inspections, etc. The developed SWC KPI measurements are used to evaluate the urban water management practices for Busan Eco Delta city, a Semulmeori waterfront area in Gangseo district, Busan. The evaluation and scoring process was presented and established, serving as the basis for the application of the smart water city certification all over the world. The established guideline will be used to analyze future cities, providing integrated and comprehensive information on the status of their urban water cycle, gathering new techniques and proposing solutions for smarter measures.

  • A public address (PA) system installed in a building is a system that delivers alerts, announcements, instructions, etc. in an emergency or disaster situation. As for the products used in PA systems, with the development of information and communication technology, PA products with various functions have been introduced to the market. PA systems recently launched in the market may be connected through a single network to enable efficient management and operation, or use voice recognition technology to deliver quick information in case of an emergency. In addition, a system capable of locating a user inside a building using a location-based service and guiding or responding to a safe area in the event of an emergency is being launched on the market. However, the new PA systems currently on the market add some functions to the existing PA system configuration to make system operation more convenient, but they do not change the complex PA system configuration to reduce facility costs, maintenance, and management costs. In this paper, we propose a novel PA system configuration for buildings using audio networks and control hierarchy over peer-to-peer (Anchor) technology based on audio over IP (AoIP), which simplifies the complex PA system configuration and enables convenient operation and management. As a result of the study, through the emergency signal processing algorithm, fire broadcasting was made possible according to the detection of the existence of a fire signal in the Anchor system. In addition, the control device of the PA system was replaced with software to reduce the equipment installation cost, and the PA system configuration was simplified. In the future, it is expected that the PA system using Anchor technology will become the standard for PA facilities.

  • In this research, we suggest a real-time tele-driving system for unmanned fire truck control using the LTE communication system. The operator located in the safe area could drive the unmaned fire truck by implementing the secure tele-operation in case of the emergencies and disaster situation. A prototype of the unmaned fire truck was developed with a fire canon, a high pressure pump, a ball valve and a horse reel. The effect of time delay and FPS was quantified depending on the image sizes and the effective system for realtime tele-operation was suggested. To verify the suggested system, the test was performed between an operator and an unmanned fire truck which is approximately 30km apart. In this research, the immersion tele-driving system is suggested for real-time fire suppression with a 120ms time delay using LTE communication.

  • 주거시설 확장 및 도심 내 인프라 구축을 위한 지속적인 산지 개발과 기후변동성 확대로 발생하는 게릴라 국지성 집중호우 등으로 인해 토석류의 발생가능성은 지속적으로 확대되고 있다.(kim et al., 2008) 그러나, 현재 국내의 토석류 방재시설에 대한 설치는 아직 미흡한 실정이며 아직 경사지 재해 발생 위험지역에는 방재시설 설치가 필요하다. 지자체의 제한된 예산으로는 필요한 모든 지역에 설치가 불가하기 때문에 순차적으로 효율적인 설치가 이루어질 필요가 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 도심지 내 소규모 산지에 대한 효율적인 설치방안을 모색하기 위해서 방재시설 설치 이후 토석류의 거동을 수치모의를 통해 방재시설 설치의 효율성을 분석하였다. 도심지 내 위치한 토석류 발생이력이 있는 소규모 산지의 토석류의 특성을 조사한 결과, 주요 발생원인은 국지성 집중호우로 인한 지반 약화로 인해 급경사를 이루고 있는 암반층 상단에 분포한 퇴적층의 붕괴가 주요 원인으로 나타났다(Kang et al, 2014) 조사결과에 근거하여 해당 유역에 대한 토석류 발생의 유입조건을 산정하였으며 유입조건에 대해 토석류 거동 예측 2차원 해석 소프트웨어인 FLO-2D를 사용하였다. 수치모의를 수행하여 방재시설이 미설치된 상태에서 발생한 토석류의 거동을 실제 발생한 토석류와 비교하였다. 또한, 수치모의에서 방재시설의 구현이 제한되므로 4가지 방재시설(교란사면용 토석류 방지시설, 울타리형 토석류 방지시설, 토사유출 저감용 지오셀, 토석류 방재장치)에 대해 경계조건의 변경을 통해 간접적으로 구현해 결과를 분석하였다. 방재시설은 종류 및 설치위치에 따라 토석류에 대한 피해저감효과가 상이하게 나타났다. 토석류 방재장치를 토석류 발생위치 전방 50 m 지점에 토석류 방재장치를 설치한 경우, 토석류의 유속이 20% 감소하여 피해범위는 36% 감소하였으며, 전방 200 m 지점에 설치한 경우, 피해범위가 14% 감소하였다. 검토한 4가지의 토석류 방재시설 중 토석류 방재장치가 가장 효율적인 결과를 나타냈다. 향후에는 피해범위에 대한 조건 외에 시공 및 유지관리 등에 대한 경제성검토를 한다면 종합적으로 방재시설 효율성을 검토할 수 있을 것으로 본다.

  • The frequency and scale of domestic flood damage continues to increase, but the criteria for responding to flood damage have not been established. To this end, research is underway to estimate the amount of rainfall in each region so that it can be used to respond to flood damage. The limit rainfall is defined as the cumulative maximum rainfall for each duration that causes flooding, and this research purpose to improve the threshold rainfall by estimating the damage based on the damage history in units of 5 years and analyzing changes over time. The limit rainfall based on the damage history was estimated by using the NDMS past damage history of the Ministry of the Interior and Safety and the rainfall minutes data of AWS and ASOS. The period for estimating the limit rainfall is 2013 ~ 2017, 2015 ~ 2019, and the limit rainfall is estimated by analyzing the relationship between the flood damage history and the rainfall event in each period. Considering changes in watershed characteristics and disaster prevention performance, the data were compared using 5-year data. As a result of the analysis, the limit rainfall based on the damage history could be estimated for less than about 10.0% of the administrative dongs nationwide. As a result of comparing the limit rainfall by period, it was confirmed that the area where the limit rainfall has increased or decreased This was analyzed as a change due to rainfall events or urbanization, and it is judged that it will be possible to improve the risk criteria of flooding.

  • 동해안에 위치한 영동지역은 산지로 둘러싸여 있어 지형적인 여건으로 지상강우관측망의 밀도가 낮으며, 지상관측소의 관측한계를 보완하기 위해 사용되고 있는 기존 대형 레이더는 지형 차폐로 인해 영동지역에서는 정확한 강우정보를 관측하기 어렵다. 강우정보는 홍수예측을 위해 필수적인 정보이므로, 집중호우와 태풍으로 인한 홍수재해가 빈번히 발생하는 영동지역에서는 관측공백의 해소가 필요하다. 이를 위해 환경부에서는 동해안 지역에 2기의 전파강수관측소를 설치, 운영 중에 있다. 해당 관측소 자료는 30km 관측반경 범위 내에서 수 백 미터 이하의 격자 강우자료를 생산할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 전파강수관측소의 자료를 강우 및 홍수 재해정보 생산에 활용하고자 한다. 대상지역은 영동지역에 위치한 삼척오십천으로 해당 지역은 친수적으로 조성되어 강우로 인한 시민의 인명피해가 위험이 존재하는 곳이다. 본 연구에서는 새로 설치된 삼척 전파강수관측소로 관측된 자료를 이용하여 고해상도 격자 및 유역평균강우정보를 생산하고, 지역특성을 반영하여 강우정보 기반으로 하천홍수 위험을 판단할 수 있는 하천흐름계산도표를 개발하여 평가하고자 한다. 생산된 고해상도 격자 강우자료는 70m 격자 해상도를 갖으며, 분포형 비차등위상차를 이용하여 추정된 강우정보이다. 유역평균강우는 삼척오십천 유역과 삼척시 동단위 행정구역별로 산출된다. 또한 하천흐름계산도표는 삼척오십천 유역의 현장답사를 통해 시민의 접근성, 하천수위 급상승으로 인한 피해가능성을 고려하여 6개 지점을 선정하여 개발하고, 전파강수관측소 관측강우정보를 활용하여 홍수예측정보로의 적절성을 평가한다.
