Most information within a construction project roots in drawings and contract documents. Although several methodologies, such as A/E/C and 4D, have employed such a peculiarity to integrate project information, they failed to integrate information in terms of efficiency and consistency. In this research, a MD (Multi-Dimensional) CAD model is developed to improve the process of integrating information for construction projects. This research describes the processes of creating MD CAD objects and embedding information required throughout the project life cycle within MD CAD building components. In addition, a case study is presented to show the efficiency and effectiveness of using MDIIS (Multi-Dimensional Information Integration System) to integrate information for construction projects.

A simple and an improved methods for the economic analysis of the flood control project has been in previous studies in Korea. In 2004, the Multi-Dimensional Flood Damage Analysis (MD-FDA) was developed and now it is widely used for the economic analysis of flood control project. However, the MD-FDA was developed for general damage assessment and analysis without consideration of specific regional characteristics such as urban and rural areas. To compensate the MD-FDA for the application in urban area, a part of damage estimation components is modified and a component for the flood damage estimation is suggested. The component we suggest is for the consideration of the capability of stormwater pump stations in the study area. When flood is occurred in the urban area, the damage potential is larger than the rural area because of the concentration of human lives and properties. So, many stormwater pump stations are located in the urban area and the inundation depth is estimated by considering the capabilities of pump stations. We also compensate the damage components such as the damages of industrial area, and public facilities for the flood damage estimation of the urban area. The results by the compensated MD-FDA for the urban area application with those by original MD-FDA are compared. As a result the B/C ratio showed 6.75 and 5.51 respectively for the modified and original MD-FDA. This difference might be largely affected by the damage rate of the public facilities.

The relationships among multi-dimensional data (such as medical examination data) with ambiguity and variation are difficult to explore. The traditional approach to building a data classification system requires the formulation of rules by which the input data can be analyzed. The formulation of such rules is very difficult with large sets of input data. This paper first describes two classification approaches using back-propagation (BP) neural network and Mahalanobis distance (MD) classifier, and then proposes two classification approaches for multi-dimensional feature selection. The first one proposed is a feature selection procedure from the trained back-propagation (BP) neural network. The basic idea of this procedure is to compare the multiplication weights between input and hidden layer and hidden and output layer. In order to simplify the structure, only the multiplication weights of large absolute values are used. The second approach is Mahalanobis-Taguchi system (MTS) originally suggested by Dr. Taguchi. The MTS performs Taguchi's fractional factorial design based on the Mahalanobis distance as a performance metric. We combine the automatic thresholding with MD: it can deal with a reduced model, which is the focus of this paper In this work, two case studies will be used as examples to compare and discuss the complete and reduced models employing BP neural network and MD classifier. The implementation results show that proposed approaches are effective and powerful for the classification.

A design approach using a one-dimensional (1D) lumped model was studied and applied to an industrial inkjet printing head design for micro patterning on printed circuit boards. For an accurate analysis, a three-dimensional piezoelectric-driven actuator model was analyzed and its jetting characteristics were applied to 1Danalysis model. The performance of the 1D lumped model was verified by comparing measured and simulated results. The developed 1D model helped to optimize the design and configuration of the inkjet head and could be implemented in the design of multi-nozzle inkjet printing heads to improve the jetting frequency and minimize crosstalk.

Recently, the flood damages including losses of human lifes and property have been rapidly increased according to extreme floods. And we know that the flood control project is needed for diminishing flood damages. However, we have had the lacks in a reasonable methodology for the economic analysis of food control project. This study aims to improve the existing economic analysis method for flood control project. So, first of all, we understand the problems of existing economic analysis and investigate the methodologies of foreign countries. Based on that, the Multi-Dimensional Flood Damage Analysis(MD-FDA) is developed in this study. The survey of properties on the floodplain is conducted, then the damage rate obtained by evaluating the monetary values of surveyed property is applied, and the expected flood damage is calculated. Also by considering damage area in the floodplain as well as spatial distribution of inundated depth using GIS, the flood damages are evaluated more accurately than existing method. From the study, we know that the MD-FDA can improve the problems of existing method and evaluate the reasonable flood damages by using updated nation리 statistics.

The sintering mechanisms of nanoscale copper powders have been investigated. A molecular dynamics (MD) simulation with the embedded-atom method (EAM) was employed for these simulations. The dimensional changes for initial-stage sintering such as characteristic lengths, neck growth, and neck angle were calculated to understand the densification behavior of copper nano-powders. Factors affecting sintering such as the temperature, powder size, and crystalline misalignment between adjacent powders have also been studied. These results could provide information of setting the processing cycles and material designs applicable to nano-powders. In addition, it is expected that MD simulation will be a foundation for the multi-scale modeling in sintering process.

치수경제성분석, 투자우선순위 및 시설물 규모결정 등의 의사결정과정에서 실무에서는 다차원 홍수피해산정법(MD-FDA)을 현재까지 널리 사용 중이다. 2004년에 개발된 MD-FDA는 대상지역의 자산규모를 행정구역 경계 최소단위인 "읍면동"을 기준으로 계산하여 취합하고, 대상자산이 위치가능한 토지이용정보를 토지피복도로부터 확인하여, 읍면동내 토지이용공간면적을 기준으로 자산정보를 분배(분해)하는 방식으로 이루어진다. 그러나 읍면동 단위의 공간적인 범위는 상당한 면적의 공간적 경계이기 때문에, 이를 평균적인 밀도데이터로 분배 시 공간적인 자산분포에 대해 정밀도를 담보할 수 없다. 이에 본 연구는 행정구역경계인 "읍면동"과 비교할 때 평균적으로 1/30의 면적을 가지는 집계구 단위의 센서스 공간정보자료를 이용하여 방법론을 개선하였고, 이를 MD-FDA 분석체계를 근간으로 센서스자료와 관계된 자료들 간의 연계 및 전체적인 분석과정을 정립하였다. 본 연구에서 제안한 방법을 경기도 동두천시를 대상으로 적용하여 기존 방법에 의한 피해액과 그 차이를 비교하였고, 도로명전자지도의 실제 건물객체 자료(.shp)를 기준으로 오차율을 확인한 결과, 기존 방식에 비해 정밀도가 월등히 향상된 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

Computational analysis of incompressible flows by numerically solving Navier-Stokes equations using multi-block finite volume method is conducted on a parallel computing system. Numerical algorithms adopted in this study $include^{(1)}$ QUICK upwinding scheme for convective $terms,^{(2)}$ central differencing for other terms $and^{(3)}$ the second-order Euler differencing for time-marching procedure. Structured grids are used on the body-fitted coordinate with multi-block concept which uses overlaid grids on the block-interfacing boundaries. Computational code is parallelized on the MPI environment. Numerical accuracy of the computational method is verified by solving a benchmark test case of the flow inside two-dimensional rectangular cavity. Computation in the axial compressor cascade is conducted by using 4 PE's md, as results, no numerical instabilities are observed and it is expected that the present computational method can be applied to the turbomachinery flow problems without major difficulties.

현재 국내에서 치수경제성분석을 위한 홍수피해산정법으로는 하천설계기준에 제시되어 있는 다차원홍수 피해산정법(MD-FDA: Multi-Dimensional Flood Damage Analysis)이 광범위하게 사용되고 있다. 그러나 2004년 처음으로 지침이 나온 이후 각종 자산조사 원단위에 대한 갱신이 이루어지지 않아 현재 실정에 맞는 자산조사가 불가능하며, 일부 산정방식에서는 문제점도 지적되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 주거자산, 농업자산, 산업자산으로 나누어진 자산 항목과 인명피해액 산정을 위한 인명손실에 대한 각각의 원단위를 갱신하여 현재 경제상황에 맞는 적용이 이루어질 수 있게 하였다. 또한 과거 문제점이 지적되던 산정방식에 대해서 일부는 기술 방식을 고쳐 이해를 돕고, 일부는 새로운 방법론을 제시하였다. 그럼에도 불구하고 갱신된 원단위가 현재의 사회경제적 상황을 완벽히 반영한다고 판단되지는 않는다. 이는 통계자료의 양적 질적 부족으로 인해 기인된 것이다. 그러나 2004년 다차원홍수피해산정법이 처음 제시된 이후로 원단위의 갱신이 이루어지지 않았던 데 비해 통계자료의 형식적 내용적 변화상을 반영할 수 있게 하였다는 점에 있어서 연구의 의미가 있다. 본 연구의 결과 변경된 자산조사 방식과 각종 원단위는 치수계획 실무에서 홍수피해산정시 많은 참고가 될 것이다.

This paper presents a PWM dc-ac converter regulation using a Single Input Fuzzy PI Controller (SIFPIC). The SIFPIC is derived from the signed distanced method, which is a simplification of a conventional fuzzy controller. The simplification results in a one-dimensional rule table, that allows its control surface to be approximated by a piecewise linear relationship. The controller multi-loop structure is comprised of an outer voltage and an inner current feedback loop. To verify the performance of the SIFPIC, a low power PWM dc-ac converter prototype is constructed and the proposed control algorithm is implemented. The experimental results show that the SIFPIC performance is comparable to a conventional Fuzzy PI controller, but with a much reduced computation time.
