A destructive earthquake, the magnitude of this earthquake was 7.2, hit Van, Turkey on October 23, 2011. After this devastating earthquake, a moderate earthquake which had 5.7 magnitude on November 9, 2011 occurred in Edremit, Van. These earthquakes caused heavy damages and collapses in many reinforced concrete buildings with loss of lives. In this paper, characteristics of ground motions of these earthquakes were studied and, deficiencies in structural elements and engineering faults such as poor workmanship and quality of construction, soft and weak stories, strong beam-weak column, short column, large overhang, hammering and unconfined gable wall were investigated. According to the observations, it was seen that, low quality of structural materials, lack of engineering services, inappropriate design and construction with insufficient detailing of the structural elements were the main reasons of heavy damages.

Background and objective: This study examined, compared, and analyzed the tree vitality of the trees growing on the artificial ground of Seoullo 7017 that transformed the overpass that was to be demolished into a "sky garden" using portable tree pots. Methods: Based on the summer season when the metabolic activity of plants is most active, this study measured the cambial electrical resistance in four directions(east, west, south and north), using the Shigometer (model OZ-93, Osmose) and compared the location and analysis of pots according to their means and standard errors. Results: Meanwhile, according to the analysis, vitality was relatively superior in pots with a big diameter, trees planted individually than in groups, trees of the ramp section rather than the bridge section, and in the southwest direction of the cambium. Conclusion: This study revealed the improper condition of the planting plan and implementation on the site, where various species of trees are displayed in a poor environment. Despite the significant assessment of the vitality of various trees introduced within Seoullo 7017 for the first time, this study is limited in that the data used were measured only once in summer. In this regard, it raised the need for continuous interest in and monitoring of a special plant environment and development of proper maintenance and management techniques, along with follow-up research on seasonal and temperature conditions, soil moisture and root development conditions to supplement this research.

Common hydrological problems of developing countries include poor data management, insufficient measuring devices and ungauged watersheds, leading to small or unreliable data availability. This has greatly affected the adoption of artificial intelligence techniques for flood risk mitigation and damage control in several developing countries. While climate datasets have recorded resounding applications, but they exhibit more uncertainties than ground-based measurements. To encourage AI adoption in developing countries with small ground-based dataset, we propose data augmentation for regression tasks and compare performance evaluation of different AI models with and without data augmentation. More focus is placed on simple models that offer lesser computational cost and higher accuracy than deeper models that train longer and consume computer resources, which may be insufficient in developing countries. To implement this approach, we modelled and predicted streamflow data of the Asa River Watershed located in Ilorin, Kwara State Nigeria. Results revealed that adequate hyperparameter tuning and proper model selection improve streamflow prediction on small water dataset. This approach can be implemented in data-scarce regions to ensure timely flood intervention and early warning systems are adopted in developing countries.

백제 시대의 대표적인 문화재들이 다수 출토된 무령왕릉을 포함한 송산리 고분군에 대한 고분벽체의 거동을 장기적으로 계측하여 분석하였다. 본 연구는 송산리 고분군의 안정성을 판단하여 보존대착을 수립하기위한 목적으로 이루어졌으며, 각 고분의 중요지점에 총 11개의 2축 경사변화측정센서를 설치하고 매 20분마다 자동계측하여 약 15개월 동안 (1996년 7월 14일~1997년 9월 30일) 관측을 실시하였다. 무령왕릉의 벽체거동은 연도입구의 호벽이 최대거동을 보여 직각변위(N-S Tilt) 성분이 2.3mm/m/yr로 남쪽방향인 전실쪽으로 거동하고 있는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 무령왕릉 현실 서측벽의 남쪽 등 상감 상부의 벽돌이 1971년 발굴 이후 남쪽으로 기울어진 병형을 보이며 고분구조가 남쪽 방향으로 거동함을 증명하고 있다. 현실 동측벽의 거동 또한 1.523mm/m/yr로 현실 내부로의 거동이 심한편이다. 더구나 우기에는 그 변위가 약 2배에 달하는 것으로 판단되어 고분군 주위의 지반이 침투수에 노출되는 우기에는 고분의 구조안전에 심각한 문제가 있는 것으로 판단된다. 5호분은 전체적으로 벽체의 전후방향 거동이 벽체의 전단방향 변위보다 크게 나타난다. 또한 틸트의 급격한 불연속은 없고 일정한 방향으로 계속적인 미약한 변동을 보이고 있다. 6호분 역시 건기의 최대 거동 수치가 8.8mm/m/yr로써 다른 고분의 우기시의 거동수치를 훨씬 초과한다. 고분벽체의 대.소의 변형 사건은 강수 및 온도변화와 밀접한 관련성이 있는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 온도변화에 의한 벽체거동의 영향은 고분내의 온도가 급격히 상승할 때는 온도가 일정하게 유지될 때보다 거동 비율이 훨씬 크다. 상승했던 온도가 다시 하강되면 벽체는 온도가 상승하기 전의 상태로는 돌아가지 않고 잔여변형을 발생시켜 영구변형으로 남게 되는 이력현상을 보이고 있다. 또한, 무령왕릉 주변의 지하수위 관측 결과 현재 고분축조부지의 배수체계가 원지반보다 불량함을 의미하여, 불량한 배수체계는 고분의 구조안전에 영향을 미치는 것으로 판단된다. 이와같이 고분군에 발생한 모든 변위들은 발굴 후 인위적인 환경변화와 지속적인 강우침투의 영향과 배수불랴으로 인한 주변지반 및 내벽의 물성치의 저하로 인하여 고분의 내벽에 상당량의 변위가 발생한 것으로 판단된다. 무령왕릉 벽체거동 특성 분석 결과 무엇보다 강우침투 및 지아수유입을 막는 차수대책이 시급하며, 고분내에 있는 제습기에 의한 상승효과흐 제거하여야 할 것으로 판단된다.

이 논문에서는 뒷채움이 부실한 묻힌기초 위에 세워진 건축물의 지반증폭계수에 대한 기초묻힘으로 인한 저감계수를 산정하기 위한 연구를 비선형 의사 3D 수평지진해석이 가능한 P3DASS 유한요소 프로그램으로 수행하였다. 지반은 30m 두께로 균질하고 탄성과 점성이 있는 등방성 지반으로 단단한 암반 위에 놓인 것으로 가정하였고, 기초는 반경이 10-70m인 등가원형 강체기초로 기초묻힘은 0, 10, 20, 30m인 경우를 고려하였다. 지진해석은 노두에서 실측한 7개 지진기록의 유효지진가속도를 0.1g로 조정한 후 연약지반밑 암반에서의 지진기록을 생성하여 수행하였다. 연구 결과에 의하면, 매우 연약한 지반에 깊게 묻힌 뒷채움이 부실한 소형기초인 경우를 제외하고는 지반증폭계수가 기초묻힘비가 깊어 질수록 점진적으로 감소하고 기초크기에 따른 편차는 크지 않은 것으로 평가되었다. 따라서 뒷채움이 부실한 묻힌기초의 지반증폭계수를 설계기준에 주어진 지표면기초의 지반증폭계수에 곱해서 구할 수 있는 표준저감계수를 전단파속도와 지반종류에 따라 제안하였다. 이 표준저감계수는 지반의 평균전단파속도에 따라 보간하여 사용할 수도 있다.

Sabah has experienced a rapid decline in the extent of forest cover. The precise impact of habitat loss on the conservation status of the plants of Sabah is uncertain. In this study we use the niche modelling algorithm MAXENT to construct preliminary, revised and final ecological niche models for Dipterocarpus lamellatus and Dipterocarpus ochraceus and combined these models with data on current land-use to derive conservation assessments for each species. Preliminary models were based on herbarium data alone. Ground surveys were conducted to evaluate the performance of these preliminary models, and a revised niche model was generated from the combined herbarium and ground survey data. The final model was obtained by constraining the predictions of the revised models by filters. The range overlap between the preliminary and revised models was 0.47 for D. lamellatus and 0.39 for D. ochraceus, suggesting poor agreement between them. There was substantial variation in estimates of habitat loss for D. ochraceus, among the preliminary, revised and constrained models, and this has the potential to lead to incorrect threat assessments. From these estimates of habitat loss, the historic distribution and estimates of population size we determine that both species should be classified as Critically Endangered under IUCN Red List guidelines. Our results suggest that ground-truthing of ecological niche models is essential, especially if the models are being used for conservation decision making.

The full nonlinear equations of an unmanned aerial vehicle ground taxiing mathematical dynamic model are built based on a type of unmanned aerial vehicle data in LMS Virtual.Lab Motion. The flexible landing gear model is considered to make the aircraft ground motion more accurate. The electric braking control system is established in MATLAB/Simulink and the experiment of it verifies that the electric braking model with the pressure sensor is fitted well with the actual braking mechanism and it ensures the braking response speediness. The direction rectification control law combining the differential brake and the rudder with 30% anti-skid brake is built to improve the directional stability. Two other rectifying control laws are demonstrated to compare with the designed control law to verify that the designed control is of high directional stability and high braking efficiency. The lateral displacement increases by 445.45% with poor rectification performance under the only rudder rectifying control relative to the designed control law. The braking distance rises by 36m and the braking frequency increases by 85.71% under the control law without anti-skid brake. Different landing conditions are simulated to verify the good robustness of the designed rectifying control.

The study focused on the fluctuation of the fisheries conditions in fishing ground of yellow croaker, Pseudosciaena polyactis Bleeker. A long-term decreasing trend was observed in the accumulated catches of the species since 1926, with increasing-decreasing fluctuation repeating 6 times. Periodicity was observed in 10-year interval in good fishing years, but not in poor fishing years which had irregular fluctuations. From the geographical distribution of the past catch per unit effort, it was presumed that a group of the species seasonally migrated but most of the groups stayed throughout year in the western area off Cheju Island, which was different from the assumptions of the 1970's. The fishing grounds were distributed along the migration route differently by season, throughout the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea, but shifted gradually southward and narrowed down to the area of $32^{\circ}N-125^{\circ}E$ off Cheju Island, where the center of fishing grounds was given birth to throughout the year with a relatively high density from autumn to spring. It was noted that a negative correlation was shown between the area of fishing grounds and density distribution of catch.

The present study was intended to investigate ecological characteristics of poverty areas in Seoul from the perspectives of children's development. More specifically, the objectives of the study are to examine environmental ecology of the poverty areas and it's potential psycho-social development of children. Three poverty areas and 150 children currently living in the are as were sampled ; 70 children from middle class families and 88 from lower class respectively. Focal ecological aspects surveyed family environment, outdoor play ground and facilities, and village housing structures. Psycho-social dimension's development dealt with in the study included children's perceptions of parental child rearing practices and role taking, and children's future perception and perspectives. Data were collected through interviews and observations using structured formats. Following results were obtained from the data : 1. Children from the poverty families showed a higher tendency to have working mothers than those from middle class. 2. The rate of having single room is higher for children from middle class by two times than from lower class. 3. Children from lower class tended to have less favorable perceptions of attitudes tote and their own families than those from middle class. 4. The likelihood of showing discrepancy in vocational choice for children between parents and children is higher for children from lower class and those from middle class. 5. Children from lower class tended to allot more time in playing with peers than those from middle class. 6. The size of outdoor play ground are inadequately poor both for middle and lower class children. The inadequateness is particularly severe for the lower class children, showing that the size and facilities of playing ground available for the child from lower class is less than half compared with those of the children from middle class.
