Recently, coastal erosion has been widely in progress and the erosion level becomes also serious in the world wide, espeically in East Sea in Korea. Since it would threaten the life, economics and security risk, it is necessary to much comprehend the reason why coastal erosion has occurred according to the geographical characteristics. Meanwhile, analysis about hydrodynamics of the solitary wave such as tunami in swash zone is needed for the best management practice of coastal erosion. Solitary wave is nonlinear wave and can be reproduced in the laboratoy scale by openning suddenly a sluice gate with water head difference, of which methodology was found in the literature, since it could be simply determined by a significant wave height. Thus, in this sutdy the generation of solitary wave was experimentalized using the sluice gate. Experimental conditions were classified by angles of a beach slope, a water level in a beach slope and a difference of water level between in a headtank and a channel bed. Two kinds of dimensionless analyses based from experimental results in this study were presented; the first analysis indicates nondimensionalization between the wave height and the water level in a beach slope in order to investigate characteristics of solitary wave approaching the beach. The second shows the other nondimensionalization between dynamic pressure and static pressure on a beach slope to investigate the relationship between wave breaking and wave pressure. Under the same conditions as laboratory experiments, the numerical results computed with a SWAN model embedded in FLOW 3D were compared in terms of wave height, and pressure on the beach slope, which shows good agreement with each other. Overall results from this study could provide fundamental hydraulic data for the reliabile verification of numerical simulation results about coastal erosion in swash zone caused by solitary waves.

Fuzzy neural network is an integrated model of artificial neural network and fuzzy system and it has been successfully applied in control and forecasting area. Recently ANFIS(Adaptive Network-based Fuzzy Inference System) has been noticed widely among various fuzzy neural network models because of outstanding performance of control and forecasting accuracy. ANFIS has capability to refine its fuzzy rules interactively with human expert. In particular, when we use initial rule structure for machine learning which is generated from human expert, it is highly probable to reach global optimum solution as well as shorten time to convergence. We propose metrics to evaluate interpretability of generated rules as a means of acquiring domain knowledge and compare level of interpretability of ANFIS fuzzy rules to those of C5.0 classification rules. The proposed metrics also can be used to evaluate capability of rule generation for the various machine learning methods.

In the wave spectrum distribution based on linear wave theory, the appearance of a giant wave whose wave height reaches to 30m has been considered next to almost impossible in a real sea However since more than 10 giant waves were observed in a recent investigation of global wave distribution which was carried out by the analysis of SAR imagines for three weeks, the existence of the giant waves is being recognized and it is considered the cause of many unknown marine disasters. The change of wave height distribution concerning a formation of wave train, nonlinear wave to wave interaction and so on were raised as the causes of the appearance of the giant waves, but the occurrence mechanism of the giant waves hasn't been cleared yet. In present study, we investigated appearance circumstances of the giant waves in real sea and its occurrence mechanism was analyzed based on linear and nonlinear wave focusing theories. Also, through a development of numerical model of the nonlinear $schr\"{o}dinger$ equation, the formations of the giant wave from progressive wave train were reproduced.

Wind energy has been recognized as one of the most important and fastest growing energy resources without emission of air pollutant. Thus, it is necessary to predict wind speed and direction accurately both in time and space toward the efficient usage of wind energy. Numerical simulation experiments using the Fifth-Generation Mesoscale Model (MM5) are carried out to clarify the impact of surface observation data assimilation on the estimation of wind energy resources. The EXP_Radius run was designed with respect to the radius of influence in the Four-Dimensional Data Assimilation (FDDA), and the EXP_Impact run was made by changing the nudging coefficient that determines the relative magnitude of the nudging term. The simulation period covers a clear-sky event on 3 - 5 June 2007 and another is on 2 - 4 December 2006. It is found that the simulated results are very sensitive to the radius of influence and nudging parameters in the FDDA. The further analysis of the results shows that the impact of the radius of influence tends to be stronger in weak synoptic flow episode than that in strong synoptic flows episode. The nudging factor is also sensitive to the intensity of the synoptic flows.

Diesel exhaust particle (<2.5 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, DEP$_{2.5}$) is known to be probarbly carcinogenic (IARC group 2A). DEP$_{2.5}$ contains organic compounds such as polycyclicaromatic hydrocarbon (PAH), heterocyclic compounds, phenols, and nitroarenes. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are generated by DEP$_{2.5}$ without any biological activation system. Therefore, an alternative mechanism by which DEP$_{2.5}$ could be carcinogenic is known by the generation of oxidative DNA damage. The aim of this study was to investigate genotoxic effects of DEP$_{2.5}$ using single cell gel electrophoresis. In order to evaluate the mechanisms of DEP$_{2.5}$ genotoxicity, the rat micro-some mediated and DNA repair enzyme treated comet assays together with routine comet assay were performed. DEP$_{2.5}$ was collected from diesel engine bus and dichloromethane extract was obtained. The organic extract of DEP$_{2.5}$ revealed DNA damage itself in NIH/3T3 cells. And it showed both oxidative and microsome mediated DNA damages. Vitamin C as an model antioxidant reduced DNA damage in endonuclase III treated comet assay. One of flavonoid, galangin as a CYP1A1 inhibitor reduced DNA damage in the presence of S-9 mixture. Our results show that DEP$_{2.5}$ are genotoxic and a great source of oxidative stress, but antioxidants can significantly reduce oxidative DNA damages. And DEP$_{2.5}$ may contain indirect mutagens which can be inhibited by CYP inhibitors.d by CYP inhibitors.

Recently computing devices by connecting to a network, grid computing, the next generation of digital neural networks that provide maximum service will connect all of the computer such as a PC or server, PDA into one giant network makes the virtual machine. Therefore, we propose the grid computing implementation model to be applied to meteorological business field as follows. First, grid computing will be used for tasks such as the development of numerical models below the mid-scale or test operations, and the final backup of the weather supercomputer. Second, the resources that will constitute grid computing are limited to business PCs and Linux servers operated by the central government considering operational efficiency. Third, the network is restricted to the LAN section, which suggests the implementation of high performance computing.

With the popularity of smart phones and the help of high-speed wireless communication technology, high-quality multimedia contents have become common in mobile devices. Especially, the release of Oculus Rift opens a new era of virtual reality technology in consumer market. At the same time, 3D audio technology which is currently used to make computer games more realistic will soon be applied to the next generation of mobile phone and expected to offer a more expansive experience than its visual counterpart. This paper surveys concepts, algorithms, and systems for modeling 3D sound virtual environment applications. To do this, we first introduce an important design principle for audio rendering based on physics-based geometric algorithms and multichannel technologies, and introduce an audio rendering pipeline to a scene graph-based virtual reality system and a hardware architecture to model sound propagation.

Various aspects should be taken into account while developing a distributed architecture based on a multi-tier model or an enterprise architecture. Among those, the separation of role between page designer and page developer, defining entity which is used for database connection and transaction processing are very much important. In this paper, we presented DONSL(Data Server of Non SQL query) architecture to solve these problems applying web tier object modelling. This architecture solves the above problems by simplifying tiers coupling and removing DAO(Data Access Object) and entity from programming logic. We concentrate upon these three parts. One is about how to develop the DAO not concerning the entity modification, another is automatic transaction processing technique including SQL generation and the other is how to use the AET/MET(Automated/Manual Execute d Transaction) effectively.

A neurotoxin, 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) has long been used to form a Parkinson's disease (PD) model by inducing the lesion in catecholaminergic pathways, particularly the nigrostriatal dopamine (DA) pathway. Whereas l-deprenyl, a selective inhibitor of monoamine oxidase (MAO) type B, is now widely used in the treatment of PD, the precise action mechanism of the drug remains elusive. In this study, we investigated whether l-deprenyl shows protective effect against the DA depletion induced by 6-OHDA in rat brain, and against 6-OHDA-induced neurotoxicity and oxidative stress in catecholaminergic neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells that are known to lack MAO-B activity. Pretreatment of l-deprenyl significantly enhanced the striatal DA, 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid, homovanilic acid, and 3-methoxytyramine levels compared to the untreated 6-OHDA-lesioned rat, indicating that l-deprenyl pretreatment prevents 6-OHDA-induced depletion of not only striatal dopamine but also its metabolites. Treatment of 6-OHDA for 24hrs decreased the cell viability and increase the generation of ROS in dose-dependent manners. We further investigated whether caspase activity is involved in the action of l-deprenyl. Treatment of l-deprenyl $(0.1\~100{\mu}M)$ did not produce any changes in 6-OHDA-induced cleavage of poly (ADP-ridose) polymerase in SH-SY5Y cells. Our results suggest that the neuroprotective effect of l-deprenyl against 6-OHDA is due to its increased scavenger activity, but independent of inhibition of MAO-B or caspase-3 activation.
