Increasing the concentration of nitrate ions in the soil solution and then leaching it to underground aquifers increases the concentration of nitrate in the water, and can cause many health and ecological problems. This study was conducted to evaluate the vulnerability of Meymeh aquifer to nitrate pollution. In this research, sampling of 10 wells was performed according to standard sampling principles and analyzed in the laboratory by spectrophotometric method, then; the nitrate concentration zonation map was drawn by using intermediate models. In the drastic model, the effective parameters for assessing the vulnerability of groundwater aquifers, including the depth of ground water, pure feeding, aquifer environment, soil type, topography slope, non-saturated area and hydraulic conductivity. Which were prepared in the form of seven layers in the ARC GIS software, and by weighting and ranking and integrating these seven layers, the final map of groundwater vulnerability to contamination was prepared. Drastic index estimated for the region between 75-128. For verification of the model, nitrate concentration data in groundwater of the region were used, which showed a relative correlation between the concentration of nitrate and the prepared version of the model. A combination of two vulnerability map and nitrate concentration zonation was provided a qualitative aquifer classification map. According to this map, most of the study areas are within safe and low risk, and only a small portion of the Meymeh Aquifer, which has a nitrate concentration of more than 50 mg / L in groundwater, is classified in a hazardous area.

To study the seismic damage of masonry structures and understand the characteristics of the multi-intensity region, according to the Dujiang weir urbanization of China Wenchuan earthquake, the deterioration of 3991 masonry structures was summarized and statistically analysed. First, the seismic damage of multistory masonry structures in this area was investigated. The primary seismic damage of components was as follows: Damage of walls, openings, joints of longitudinal and transverse walls, windows (lower) walls, and tie columns. Many masonry structures with seismic designs were basically intact. Second, according to the main factors of construction, seismic intensity code levels survey, and influence on the seismic capacity, a vulnerability matrix calculation model was proposed to establish a vulnerability prediction matrix, and a comparative analysis was made based on the empirical seismic damage investigation matrix. The vulnerability prediction matrix was established using the proposed vulnerability matrix calculation model. The fitting relationship between the vulnerability prediction matrix and the actual seismic damage investigation matrix was compared and analysed. The relationship curves of the mean damage index for macrointensity and ground motion parameters were drawn through calculation and analysis, respectively. The numerical analysis was performed based on actual ground motion observation records, and fitting models of PGA, PGV, and MSDI were proposed.

Automatic large scale soil model generation is very critical stage for earthquake hazard simulation of urban areas. Manual model development may cause some data losses and may not be effective when there are too many data from different soil observations in a wide area. Geographic information systems (GIS) for storing and analyzing spatial data help scientists to generate better models automatically. Although the original soil observations were limited to soil profile data, the recent developments in mapping technology, interpolation methods, and remote sensing have provided advanced soil model developments. Together with advanced computational technology, it is possible to handle much larger volumes of data. The scientists may solve difficult problems of describing the spatial variation of soil. In this study, an algorithm is proposed for automatic three dimensional soil and velocity model development of southern part of the European side of Istanbul next to Sea of Marmara based on GIS data. In the proposed algorithm, firstly bedrock surface is generated from integration of geological and geophysical measurements. Then, layer surface contacts are integrated with data gathered in vertical borings, and interpolations are interpreted on sections between the borings automatically. Three dimensional underground geology model is prepared using boring data, geologic cross sections and formation base contours drawn in the light of these data. During the preparation of the model, classification studies are made based on formation models. Then, 3D velocity models are developed by using geophysical measurements such as refraction-microtremor, array microtremor and PS logging. The soil and velocity models are integrated and final soil model is obtained. All stages of this algorithm are carried out automatically in the selected urban area. The system directly reads the GIS soil data in the selected part of urban area and 3D soil model is automatically developed for large scale earthquake hazard simulation studies.

교통문제 해결을 위해 건설된 자동차 전용도로인 도시고속도로는 신호에 의하여 단속되지 않는 연속 교통류가 주된 흐름인 관계로 주행차량들의 주행속도가 일반도로에 비해 높아 교통사고 발생 시 인명 피해의 정도가 매우 크다는 특징이 있으며, 특히 인명 피해의 정도가 큰 중상 교통사고는 전체 교통사고에 있어서 매우 중요한 위치를 점하고 있어 중상 교통사고 발생에 미치는 영향요인에 대한 분석은 중상 교통사고 감소대책 수립 시 가장 우선적으로 고려되어져야 할 것이다. 따라서 본 연구는 도시고속도로에서 발생한 중상 교통사고 발생에 있어 여러 인자들의 복합적 작용을 알아보기 위한 미시적 분석의 일환으로 영향요인의 영향정도를 판별할 수 있는 모델을 구축하였는바, 그 결과는 다음과 같이 나타났다. 첫째, 판별모델에서는 전체 적중률들이 비교적 높게 나타났고, 상관비들을 고려해 볼 때 본 모델들이 유효하다고 판단되었으며, 제반 영향요인들의 특성 역시 명확하게 구분되었다. 둘째, 판별모델을 통하여 도시고속도로에서의 중상 교통사고 발생 영향요인별 문제점을 명확하게 도출할 수 있었다. 셋째, 판별모델을 통하여 도출된 문제점에 대한 개선대책도 명확하게 제시할 수 있었다.

Transmission mechanisms of volatility between two crude oil markets (WTI and Brent markets) have drawn the attention of numerous academics and practitioners because they both play crucial roles in portfolio and risk management in crude oil markets. In this context, we examined the volatility linkages between two representative crude oil markets using a VECM and an asymmetric bivariate GARCH model. First, looking at the return transmission through the VECM test, we found a long-run equilibrium and bidirectional relationship between two crude oil markets. However, the estimation results of the GARCH-BEKK model suggest that there is unidirectional volatility spillover from the WTI market to the Brent market, implying that the WTI market tends to exert influence over the Brent market and not vice versa. Regarding asymmetric volatility transmission, we also found that bad news volatility in the WTI market increases the volatility of the Brent market. Thus, WTI information is transmitted into the Brent market, indicating that the prices of the WTI market seem to lead the prices of the Brent market.

The objective of the present study is to evaluate the effects of the stenting shapes on flow velocity and wall shear stress in angulated coronary stenosis by computer simulation. Coronary angiogram and Doppler ultrasound measurement in the patients with angulated coronary stenosis were obtained. Inlet wave velocity distribution obtained from in vivo intracoronary Doppler data was used for the numerical simulation. Spatial pattern of blood flow velocity and recirculation area were drawn through out the selected segment of coronary models. Wall shear stresses in the intracoronary stent models were calculated from three-dimensional computer simulation. A negative shear stress region, which is consistent with re-circulation area on flow pattern, was noted on the inner wall of post-stenotic area of pre-stenting model. The negative shear stress was disappeared after stenting. Shear stress in the post-stenting model was markedly reduced up to about two orders of magnitude compared to that of the pre-stenting model.

The purpose of this study is to make virtual machine using a 3D modeller to perform reverse engineering. Through the intuitive designer's ability, approximated model of the object is created and used to extract the data and NC tool path. The extracted data make approximated curve by using NURBS curve fitting. And the curve is used to remodel. From these series of process, the final reverse engineering data of the objects can be obtained. Two conclusions are drawn from this study. First, initial deviation of the intuitive model is one of the important factors that determine the number of repetitions of the experiment. Due to the characteristic of intuitive curve, after a certain number of repetitions the average deviation increase and radiate rather than decrease.

The purpose of this study is to identify differences based on demographic characteristics and travel-related characteristics: first, whether travelers used a domestic travel agency and second whether travelers purchased a full-package travel program. A sample selection probit model was used to provide simultaneous evaluation of the different characteristics of outbound travelers. The present study investigates how tourists make decisions based on two travel-pattern choices. It then goes on to explore the characteristics of outbound travelers from South Korea. The data is drawn from a nationwide survey in South Korea, and a total of 859 surveys were used for analysis. Due to the interdependent nature of the choices, a sample selection probit model was used to estimate outbound tourists' use of domestic travel agency and purchase of full travel package. Significant determinants of domestic travel agency use are identified as age, gender, marital status, party size, children, length of travel, and travel distance, while those of full travel package purchase are age, marital status, and travel purpose. Estimated results provide manifestations of differing travel needs of outbound travelers. the results of this study demonstrate differences between travel-agency users and full-package travel-program consumers and provide determinants that affect the purchase of full-package travel.

연세대학교 천문대의 60cm와 40cm 반사망원경을 이용하여 1982년 4월 부터 1985년 5월까지 Epsilon Aurigae를 UBV 관전측광하여 총 1065 관측점을 얻었다. 우리의 광도곡선에 다른 천문대들의 관측자료를 합하여 제1극심의 광도곡선을 완성하였다. 이 광도곡선에서 2차적인 광도변화, 폭발현상, 식중심의 밝아짐 등에 관하여 자세히 조사하고, 제1그심의 각 접촉시각들과 중심식 시각을 결졍하여 다른 연국자들이 정한 값들과 비교하였다. 과거의 식들에서 구한 값들과 비교한 결과, 식이 일어나는 전체기간은 계속 감소하는 반면 완전식의 기간은 계속 증가하였다. 현재 가장 널리 통용되는 디스크 모델에 위의 여러 현상들을 적용하여 보았으나 명확히 설명되지 않았다. 그래서 새로운 모델인 혜성 모델을 만들어 광도곡선에 나타난 현상들을 해석하여 보았다.
