Seagrass bed is an important component in coastal and estuarine ecosystems, providing food and habitats to a wide variety of marine organisms. Recently, seagrass coverage has declined significantly due to anthropogenic impacts such as cultural eutrophication and reclamation, and thus efforts are under way to prevent further losses and restore disturbed seagrass habitats worldwide. Seagrass transplantation techniques for habitat restoration include vegetative and seed-based methods. Seagrass seeds can be collected easily, and sowing seeds is an economically effective method for large-scale restoration. However, large numbers of seed can be lost by seed predation and physical disturbance in the planting areas. In the present study, Zostera marina seeds were coated with loess to reduce seed loss by predation and sweeping away by the water currents, and germination rates of coated seeds and seedling growth were examined to assess the feasibility of the seed-coating method for large-scale restoration. Germination rate of the coated seeds with loess was significantly higher than that of the uncoated seeds. Additionally, seedling growths were not significantly different between the coated and the uncoated seeds. These results suggest that coating of eelgrass seeds with loess enhances success of seed germintion with no harmful effects on seedling growth. Therefore, the seed coating method using loess may be an effective and applicable seedbased transplanting technique for large-scale restoration.

본 논문에서는 흐려지고 노이즈가 부가되어 열화된 아날로그 의학영상을 복원시키기 위하여 복원기법이 적용되었다. 열화함수에 의해 흐려지고 노이즈가 낀 열화영상의 복원을 위해서 역필터링, 위너필터링에 의한 선형복원기법과 Lucy-Richardson 알고리듬에 의한 비선형 반복 복원기법이 사용되었다. 더욱이, 복원영상의 화질을 평가하기 위해서 주관적 평가방식인 ROC 곡선이 사용되었다. 상수비를 사용한 위너필터링은 역필터링에 비하여 좋은 복원영상을 얻었으나, 진단능력을 향상시키지는 못하였다. Lucy-Richardson 알고리듬이 사용된 복원영상은 가장 우수한 성능을 나타냈고, 감도와 특이도가 열화영상보다 15[%] 만큼 개선되었다.

The most important function in distribution automation system (DAS) is the service restoration. KEPCO's current service restoration provides a very effective restoration service. However, it has been developed without the consideration of unexpected abnormal conditions that may occur while processing the sequence of switching operations. The objective of this paper is to provide practical service restoration schemes under consideration of abnormal conditions. The proposed service restoration schemes have been integrated to a branch office (B/O) in KEPCO. The proposed method strongly supports the conventional service restoration and adds to its value.

배전망은 그 구조가 매우 복잡하고, 수용가와 인접되어 있으므로 송전망에 비하여 사고의 발생도 매우 빈번하다. 또한 배전망에서의 사고는 수용가에게 직접적인 피해를 발생시킬 수 있다. 따라서 수용가의 피해를 줄이고 전력공급의 안정성 확보를 위한 배전망에서의 고장진단과 정전복구는 필수적으로 요구되는 기능이다. 배전망의 정전복구는 시간적인 제약성에 종속되며, 정전복구 과정에서 발생하는 스위칭 수를 최소화하는 것이 가장 중요한 요소이다. 폭, 모든 정전구역을 한번의 스위칭으로 복구하는 것이 가장 이상적이며, 그렇지 못한 경우 여러 번의 스위칭으로 복구하여야 한다. 본 논문에서는 조작되는 스위치의 수를 최소화시키기 위한 배전망의 정전 복구 시스템을 제안하였다. 제안된 시스템에서는 휴리스틱 탐색방법과 메타-알고리즘의 동적분할 기법의 계층구조를 사용하고 있다. 제안된 정전복구 시스템의 성능을 검증하기 위하여 모의 배전망을 대상으로 성능평가를 수행하였다.

The unmanaged abandoned concrete roads are vulnerable toward the issues on soil and water pollution, which requires flexible managing method such as eco-corridor after the process of ecological restoration. Among various alternations of abandoned concrete-paved roads, ecological restoration technique may be the most suitable method in sites including high quality of natural environment. Therefore, as in Young dong province, GyungBu express highway (227.24~229.04km), which is near to Hwang-gan IC, the survey to measure its effect of soil under the paving and water pollution by abandoned concrete roads was discussed. Then, the restoration method of plantings of landscape trees and hydro-seeding methods of artificial soil media was appraised through consecutive monitoring. The soil adequacy analysis shows lower percentage of heavy metal substance in each depth level compared to standard limit stated by the Ministry of Environment, along with low concerns raised after the analysis on heavy metal content of the spilled water on the concrete roads. Meanwhile, Korean Weigela (Weigela subsessilis L.H. Baily) was found to be withered in small-scale landscape trees planting sites. Among the seeding plants. the family of leguminosae, Silene armeria, Dendranthema boreale, Caryopteris incana and Aster yomena show good establishment results. Overall studies on planting of small and large landscape trees, planting method of container plants, planting method of ground cover plants, and germination and development trend of seeding plants of the experimental restoration site on abandoned concrete roads are revealing specific trends in the way landscape woody plants establishment and growth. Finally, this study suggests further studies and survey on varied plant restoration methods on abandoned concrete-roads for developed design guidelines of their methods.

Outage areas can be transferred to adjacent feeders to restore power supply in case of the fault on the distribution system. Feeders in the small island or mountain area may not have backup feeders due to the low density of load. In this weakly meshed open loop system, BESS can be used as a backup feeder to improve reliability of power supply. This paper proposes a new network reconfiguration method for BESS based service restoration. Fuzzy decision making technique is adopted to deal with fuzziness of service restoration planning rules. Case studies using KEPCO real distribution system have been performed to verify feasibility of the proposed method.

When a fault occurs on distribution network. blackout region may happen, then it should be restored as fast as possible to minimize interruption of electric service. In this paper. A near optimal method to restore distribution network is proposed. For an optimal restoration, the number or switching operations must be minimized. The proposed method generates a general restoration plan for any distribution network fault and designed to reduce switching operations considering available load transfers. In this method overall process time can reduce with heuristic rules, which make a reduction of search space before restoration process. To achieve a near optimal solution, multiple load transfer algorithm is proposed too.

본 연구에서는 식생 복원 유형별 토양동물의 변화를 알아보기 위해 비오톱이식공법, 산림표토포설, 소경목군락식재, 다층구조군락식재를 적용한 조사구와 이를 비교할 대조구를 선정하였다. 토양동물의 변화를 통한 토양동물자연도 분석 결과, 대조구는 환경에 민감한 동물군과 둔감한 동물군이 골고루 출현하고 있어 토양동물자연도가 높게 확인되었다. 식재를 통해 복원된 조사구의 경우, 비오톱이식공법의 토양동물자연도가 대조구와 유사한 수준까지 도달해 있었으며, 이보다 낮은 수준이긴 하나 소경목군락식재, 다층구조군락식재지역의 토양동물 또한 점진적으로 회복되고 있었다. 가장 낮은 토양동물자연도를 보인 조사구는 산림표토포설지역으로 확인되었다. 이를 통해 비오톱이식공법이 식재를 통해 복원된 조사구가 다른 조사구에 비해 토양동물의 회복이 좀 더 빨리 이루어지고 있음을 파악할 수 있었다. 이는 산림 내부의 숲을 그대로 굴취한 후 이식하는 것으로 표토와 심토의 일부분이 함께 옮겨지기 때문으로 판단된다.

In this paper, we propose a method of applying a lifting-based wavelet domain e-median filter (LBWDEMF) for image restoration. LBWDEMF helps in reducing the number of computations. An e-median filter is a type of modified median filter that processes each pixel of the output of a standard median filter in a binary manner, keeping the output of the median filter unchanged or replacing it with the original pixel value. Binary decision-making is controlled by comparing the absolute difference of the median filter output and the original image to a preset threshold. In addition, the advantage of LBWDEMF is that probabilities of encountering root images are spread over sub-band images, and therefore the e-median filter is unlikely to encounter root images at an early stage of iterations and generates a better result as iteration increases. The proposed method transforms an image into the wavelet domain using lifting-based wavelet filters, then applies an e-median filter in the wavelet domain, transforms the result into the spatial domain, and finally goes through one spatial domain e-median filter to produce the final restored image. Moreover, in order to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method we compare the result obtained using the proposed method to those using a spatial domain median filter (SDMF), spatial domain e-median filter (SDEMF), and wavelet thresholding method. Experimental results show that the proposed method is superior to SDMF, SDEMF, and wavelet thresholding in terms of image restoration.
