  • The levee and bridge pier in estuary of the Hangang River are exposed in a dangerous condition due to bank erosion and local scouring occurred since the summer season in 2011. At first, it is presumed that the high sandbar formed in river channel of the study area was an important element in the occurrence of bank erosion and local scouring. It can be presumed that the record-breaking depth of freezing due to cold wave for the long term during the winter season between 2010 and 2011 as well as the heavy intensive rainfall of 2011 had a decisive effect on the first damage of A section. The second damage of B section mainly occurred around the bridge pier constructed on the high water channel before it was washed away during the winter season between 2011 and 2012. It is considered that the second damage was caused by ice formation and ice floes.

  • This paper aims to study the impact of natural disasters on per capita income in Vietnam both the short and long-term, specifically impact loss of income caused by the extreme drought 2013 for agriculture, forestry and fishery in Phu Yen Province, Central Vietnam. The study valued economic damage by applying the synthetic control method (SCM), which is a statistical method to evaluate the effect of an intervention (e.g. natural disasters) in different case studies. It estimates what would have happened to the treatment group if it had not received the treatment by constructing a weighted combination of control units (e.g. control provinces). The results showed that the 2013 drought caused a decrease in income per capita, mainly in the agriculture, forestry, and fishery sector in Phu Yen. The reduced income was estimated to be VND 160,000 (1 USD = 23,500 VND (2021)) for one person per month, accounting for 11% of total income per capita and continued to affect the income 6 years later. Therefore, authorities need to invest in preventive solutions such as early and accurate warnings to help people to be more proactive in disaster prevention.

  • Titanium alloys are expected to become one of the candidate materials for nuclear-powered spacecraft due to their excellent overall performance. Nevertheless, atomistic mechanisms of the defect accumulation and evolution of the materials due to long-term exposure to irradiation remain scarcely understood by far. Here we investigate the heavy irradiation damage in a-titanium with a dose as high as 4.0 canonical displacements per atom (cDPA) using atomistic simulations of Frenkel pair accumulation. Results show that the content of surviving defects increases sharply before 0.04 cDPA and then decreases slowly to stabilize, exhibiting a strong correlation with the system energy. Under the current simulation conditions, the defect clustering fraction may be not directly dependent on the irradiation dose. Compared to vacancies, interstitials are more likely to form clusters, which may further cause the formation of 1/3<1210> interstitial-type dislocation loops extended along the (1010) plane. This study provides an important insight into the understanding of the irradiation damage behaviors for titanium.

  • Previous long-term measurements of the Uldolmok tidal current power plant showed that the structure's natural frequencies fluctuate with a constant cycle-i.e., twice a day with changes in tidal height and tidal current velocity. This study aims to improve structural health monitoring (SHM) techniques for offshore structures under a harsh tidal environment like the Uldolmok Strait. In this study, lab-scale experiments on a simplified offshore structure as a lab-scale test structure were conducted in a circulating water channel to thoroughly investigate the causes of fluctuation of the natural frequencies and to validate the displacement estimation method using multimetric data fusion. To this end, the numerical study was additionally carried out on the simplified offshore structure with damage scenarios, and the corresponding change in the natural frequency was analyzed to support the experimental results. In conclusion, (1) the damage that occurred at the foundation resulted in a more significant change in natural frequencies compared with the effect of added mass; moreover, the structural system became nonlinear when the damage was severe; (2) the proposed damage index was able to indicate an approximate level of damage and the nonlinearity of the lab-scale test structure; (3) displacement estimation using data fusion was valid compared with the reference displacement using the vision-based method.

  • The structural steels of power plant show the decrease of mechanical properties due to degradation such as temper embrittlement, creep damage and softening during long-term operation at high temper ature. The typical causes of material degradation damage are the creation and coarsening of carbides(M23C6, M6C) and the segregation of impurities(P, Sb and Sn) to grain boundary. It is also well known that material degradation induces the cleavage fracture and increases the ductile-brittle transition temperature of steels. So, it is very important to evaluate degradation damage to secure the reliable and efficient service condition and to prevent brittle failure in service. However, it would not be appropriate to sample a large test piece from in-service components. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a couple of new approaches to the non-destructive estimation technique which may be applicable to assessing the material degradation of the components with not to influence their essential strength. The purpose of this study is to propose and establish a new electrochemical technique for non-destructive evaluation of material degradation damage for Cr-Mo steels which is widely used in the high temperature structural components. And the electrochemical anodic polarization test results are compared with those of semi-nondestructive SP test.

  • Armillaria root disease affects forests around the world. It occurs in many habitats and causes losses in the infested stands. Weather conditions are important factors for growth and development of Armillaria species. Yet, the relation between occurrence of damage caused by Armillaria disease and weather variables are still poorly understood. Thus, we used generalized linear mixed models to determine the relationship between weather conditions of current and previous year (temperature, precipitation and their deviation from long-term averages, air humidity and soil temperature) and the incidence of Armillaria-induced damage in young (up to 20 years old) and older (over 20 years old) coniferous stands in selected forest districts across Poland. We used unique data, gathered over the course of 23 years (1987-2009) on tree damage incidence from Armillaria root disease and meteorological parameters from the 24-year period (1986-2009) to reflect the dynamics of damage occurrence and weather conditions. Weather parameters were better predictors of damage caused by Armillaria disease in younger stands than in older ones. The strongest predictor was soil temperature, especially that of the previous year growing season and the current year spring. We found that temperature and precipitation of different seasons in previous year had more pronounced effect on the young stand area affected by Armillaria. Each stand's age class was characterized by a different set of meteorological parameters that explained the area of disease occurrence. Moreover, forest district was included in all models and thus, was an important variable in explaining the stand area affected by Armillaria.

  • 해수면 온도는 전 세계 해양, 기상 현상에 영향을 주고 해양 환경 변화와 생물에게 영향을 주는 중요한 요소이다. 특히, 우리나라 남해안을 비롯한 연안 지역의 경우 어업 및 양식업 등의 수산업이 많이 발달하여, 매년 고수온 현상으로 인한 사회·경제적 피해가 발생하고 있다. 따라서 위성 자료와 같은 광범위한 지역을 감시할 수 있는 자료를 활용한 해수면 온도 및 공간적 분포의 예측기술 개발을 통하여 피해를 예방할 수 있는 시스템을 구축할 필요가 있다. 해수면 온도 예측은 기존의 수치 모델을 통해서 예측을 진행하였지만, 다수의 역학적 요인들을 사용하여 예측 결과 산출 시 복잡함이 존재한다. 최근 기계학습 및 딥러닝 기법이 발달함에 따라 해양 분야의 예측에 적용하는 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구는 그 중 시·공간적인 일관성 및 정확도가 높은 장단기 기억(Long Short Term Memory, LSTM)과 합성곱 장단기 기억(Convolutional Long Short Term Memory, ConvLSTM) 딥러닝 기법을 사용하여 남해지역의 해수면온도 예측 및 2017년부터 2019년까지의 고수온 발생 건에 대해서 예측 결과의 공간 분포와 공간 분포와 예측 가능성에 대해 분석을 하였다. 1일 예측 모델의 정확도는 RMSE 기준으로 ConvLSTM(전체: 0.33℃, 봄: 0.34℃, 여름: 0.27℃, 가을: 0.32℃, 겨울: 0.36℃)이 LSTM 기반의 예측 모델(전체: 0.40℃, 봄: 0.40℃, 여름: 0.48℃, 가을: 0.39℃, 겨울: 0.34℃)보다 우수한 성능을 보였다. 2017년 고수온 발생 사례에 대해 해수면 온도 예측과 고수온 탐지 성능에서 ConvLSTM은 5일까지 경보를 탐지하였지만, LSTM의 경우 2일 예측 이후 해수면 온도를 과소 추정하는 경향이 커짐에 따라 탐지하지 못하였다. 시공간적인 해수면 온도 예측 시 ConvLSTM이 LSTM에 비해 적절한 모델로 판단된다.

  • 터널과 관련된 여러 영향인자중 시간의 따른 투수상태와 지반의 장기거동은 터널의 이상 거동을 이해하는데 있어서 중요하다. 터널은 이러한 인자에 의해서 심각한 손상을 입을 수 있으나 시공 후 이러한 인자들에 의해 발생한 영향을 정량적으로 분석해 내는 것은 쉽지 않다. 입력과 출력간의 상관관계가 비교적 독립적이라면 터널거동에 미치는 인자들의 영향은 역해석 기법을 적용하여 예측할 수 있다. 모델을 구성하는 입출력 자료의 특성에 따라 인공신경망 기법이나 최소제곱법 등 다양한 역해석 방법이 개발 될 수 있으며 수치해석, 실험 또는 계측 결과가 역해석 모델의 구성 및 검증을 위해 쓰일 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 시공 후 터널의 내공 변위 변화로부터 투수 및 지반의 장기거동과 관련된 인자들 중 배수재의 투수계수, 지하수위, 장기 이완 하중 크기 및 암반 손상 패턴 등의 변화에 의한 영향을 정량적으로 분석할 수 있는 역해석 기법을 개발하였다. 역해석은 인공신경망 기법을 적용하였으며 학습데이터 확보를 위해 수치해석 모델이 개발 되고 다양한 하중 상태에 대한 거동 분석이 이루어졌다.

  • In this paper, we conducted a dynamic ex-post assessment on the grape business cessation support System. Based on the analysis results, in the short term, there was an increase in grape price due to a decrease in production and accompanying increases in the prices of consumption substitution items. However, in the long run, grape prices fell again due to an increase in grape production because of the entry of new grape farmers and the growth of adult grape trees. In addition, the analysis showed that the balloon effect caused by the conversion of crops caused indirect damage such as an increase in the production volume of substitution crops and a decrease in prices. When analyzing the social welfare measurement, the results showed that the support system for business cessation increased the overall social welfare due to an increase in producer welfare because of a price increase in the short term, but in the long term, both producer and consumer welfare decreased. In the end, it is necessary to review the system because the government's intervention may cause market distortion and inefficient resource allocation. Above all, it is necessary to minimize the indirect effect of the industry's contraction and balloon effect due to excessive business cessation. For this, conditional support should be provided in parallel with post management rather than unconditional support. In addition, it is necessary to provide a strategic support system that considers substitution items in addition to those items to be supported.
