  • The nature of distant faint blue field galaxies remains a mystery, despite the fact that much attention has been devoted to this subject in the last decade. Galaxy counts, particularly those in the optical and near ultraviolet bandpasses, have been demonstrated to be well in excess of those expected in the 'no-evolution' scenario. This has usually been taken to imply that galaxies were brighter in the past, presumably due to a higher rate of star formation. More recently, redshift surveys of galaxies as faint as B$\~$24 have shown that the mean redshift of faint blue galaxies is lower than that predicted by standard evolutionary models (de-signed to fit the galaxy counts). The galaxy number count data and redshift data suggest that evolutionary effects are most prominent at the faint end of the galaxy luminosity function. While these data constrain the form of evolution of the overall luminosity function, they do not constrain evolution in individual galaxies. We are carrying out a series of observations as part of a long-term program aimed at a better understanding of the nature and amount of luminosity evolution in individual galaxies. Our study uses the luminosity-linewidth relation (Tully-Fisher relation) for disk galaxies as a tool to study luminosity evolution. Several studies of a related nature are being carried out by other groups. A specific experiment to test a 'no-evolution' hypothesis is presented here. We have used the AUTOFIB multifibre spectro-graph on the 4-metre Anglo-Australian Telescope (AAT) and the Rutgers Fabry-Perot imager on the Cerro Tolalo lnteramerican Observatory (CTIO) 4-metre tele-scope to measure the internal kinematics of a representative sample of faint blue field galaxies in the red-shift range z = 0.15-0.4. The emission line profiles of [OII] and [OIII] in a typical sample galaxy are significantly broader than the instrumental resolution (100-120 km $s^{-l}$), and it is possible to make a reliable de-termination of the linewidth. Detailed and realistic simulations based on the properties of nearby, low-luminosity spirals are used to convert the measured linewidth into an estimate of the characteristic rotation speed, making statistical corrections for the effects of inclination, non-uniform distribution of ionized gas, rotation curve shape, finite fibre aperture, etc.. The (corrected) mean characteristic rotation speed for our distant galaxy sample is compared to the mean rotation speed of local galaxies of comparable blue luminosity and colour. The typical galaxy in our distant sample has a B-band luminosity of about 0.25 L$\ast$ and a colour that corresponds to the Sb-Sd/Im range of Hub-ble types. Details of the AUTOFIB fibre spectroscopic study are described by Rix et al. (1996). Follow-up deep near infrared imaging with the 10-metre Keck tele-scope+ NIRC combination and high angular resolution imaging with the Hubble Space Telescope's WFPC2 are being used to determine the structural and orientation parameters of galaxies on an individual basis. This information is being combined with the spatially resolved CTIO Fabry-Perot data to study the internal kinematics of distant galaxies (Ing et al. 1996). The two main questions addressed by these (preliminary studies) are: 1. Do galaxies of a given luminosity and colour have the same characteristic rotation speed in the distant and local Universe? The distant galaxies in our AUTOFIB sample have a mean characteristic rotation speed of $\~$70 km $s^{-l}$ after correction for measurement bias (Fig. 1); this is inconsistent with the characteristic rotation speed of local galaxies of comparable photometric proper-ties (105 km $s^{-l}$) at the > $99\%$ significance level (Fig. 2). A straightforward explanation for this discrepancy is that faint blue galaxies were about 1-1.5 mag brighter (in the B band) at z $\~$ 0.25 than their present-day counterparts. 2. What is the nature of the internal kinematics of faint field galaxies? The linewidths of these faint galaxies appear to be dominated by the global disk rotation. The larger galaxies in our sample are about 2"-.5" in diameter so one can get direct insight into the nature of their internal velocity field from the $\~$ I" seeing CTIO Fabry-Perot data. A montage of Fabry-Perot data is shown in Fig. 3. The linewidths are too large (by. $5\sigma$) to be caused by turbulence in giant HII regions.

  • Background: This study evaluated the atmospheric dispersion of radioactive material according to local weather conditions and emission conditions. Materials and Methods: Local weather conditions were defined as 8 patterns that frequently occur around the Kori Nuclear Power Plant and emission conditions were defined as 6 patterns from a combination of emission rates and the total number of particles of the $^{137}Cs$, using the WRF/HYSPLIT modeling system. Results and Discussion: The highest mean concentration of $^{137}Cs$ occurred at 0900 LST under the ME4_1 (main wind direction: SSW, daily average wind speed: $2.8ms^{-1}$), with a wide region of its high concentration due to the continuous wind changes between 0000 and 0900 LST; under the ME3 (NE, $4.1ms^{-1}$), the highest mean concentration of $^{137}Cs$ occurred at 1500 and 2100 LST with a narrow dispersion along a strong northeasterly wind. In the case of ME4_4 (S, $2.7ms^{-1}$), the highest mean concentration of $^{137}Cs$ occurred at 0300 LST because $^{137}Cs$ stayed around the KNPP under low wind speed and low boundary layer height. As for the emission conditions, EM1_3 and EM2_3 that had the maximum total number of particles showed the widest dispersion of $^{137}Cs$, while its highest mean concentration was estimated under the EM1_1 considering the relatively narrow dispersion and high emission rate. Conclusion: This study showed that even though an area may be located within the same radius around the Kori Nuclear Power Plant, the distribution and levels of $^{137}Cs$ concentration vary according to the change in time and space of weather conditions (the altitude of the atmospheric boundary layer, the horizontal and vertical distribution of the local winds, and the precipitation levels), the topography of the regions where $^{137}Cs$ is dispersed, the emission rate of $^{137}Cs$, and the number of emitted particles.

  • The Cheju Current (CC), defined here as a mean eastward flow in the Cheju Strait, mostly carries water of high temperature and salinity originating from the Kuroshio in winter and spring, the Cheju Warm Current Water (CWCW). The strong core of the eastward component of the CC is found close to Cheju Island (Cheju-Do, hereafter) in winter and spring with a peak speed of about 17.0 cm/s. The eastward flow weakens towards the northern Cheju Strait, and a weak westward flow occurs occasionally close to the southern coast of Korea. The volume transport ranges from 0.37 to 0.45 Sv(1 Sv=10$^6$ m$^3$/s) in winter and spring. Seasonal thermocline and harocline are formed in summer and eroded in November. The occurrence of the CWCW is confined in the southern Cheju Strait close to Cheju-Do below the seasonal thermocline in summer and fall, and cold water occupies the lower layer north of the CWCW which is thought to be brought into the area from the area west of Cheju-Do along with the CWCW. Stratification acts to increase both the speed of the CC with a peak speed of greater than 30 cm/s and the vertical shear of the along-strait currents. The strong core of the CC detached from the coast of Cheju-Do and shifted to the north during the stratified seasons. The volume transport in summer and fall ranges 0.510.66 Sv, which is about 1.5 times larger than that in winter and spring. An annual cycle of the cross-strait sea level difference shows its maximum in summer and fall and minimum in winter and spring, whose tendency is consistent with the annual variability of the CC and its transport estimated from the ADCP measurements. Moored current measurements west of Cheju-Do indicate the clockwise turning of the CC, and the moored current measurements in the Cheju Strait for 1530 days show the low-frequency variability of the along-strait flow with a period of about 37 days.

  • 최근 3GPP에서는 급증하는 차량 사고에 대처하고, 교통 효율, 텔레매틱스와 인포테인먼트를 제공하기 위해 LTE(Long Term Evolution) 기반 차량 통신에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 차량 통신은 안전과 밀접한 관련이 있기 때문에, 신뢰성 있는 통신을 필요로 한다. 하지만 차량의 속도는 매우 빠르기 때문에 기존 사용자의 이동성과는 달리 무선 채널이 시간에 따라 빠르게 변하게 되어 전송 품질 저하 등 많은 문제가 발생하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 LTE 기반 V2V(Vehicle-to-Vehicle) 환경에서 채널 추정 기법을 제안한다. 기존 기법인 LS(Least Square) 채널 추정은 송 수신단이 알고 있는 파일럿 심볼을 이용해 얻어지며, DDCE(Decision Directed Channel Estimation)는 데이터 심볼을 이용해 채널 추정을 하고, CDP(Constructed Data Pilot) 기법은 인접한 두 데이터 심볼 사이에서 상관이 큰 특성을 이용하며, 그리고 STA(Spectral Temporal Averaging) 기법은 주파수와 시간 영역에서 채널을 평균을 취한다. 또한 Smoothing 기법은 데이터 결정 오류에 의한 최대치를 줄여준다. 제안기법인 HRCE(Hybrid Reliable Channel Estimation)는 기존의 Smoothing 기법에 LMMSE(Linear Minimum Mean Square Error)를 적용함으로써 더 정확한 채널 추정이 이루어져 신뢰성 있는 데이터 검출을 가능하게 한다. 모의실험 결과, 제안한 기법이 NMSE(Normalized Mean Square Error)와 BER(Bit Error Rate) 측면에서 전체적으로 성능이 향상 된 것을 볼 수 있다.

  • 이 연구에서는 전보에서 어군의 유영공간을 3차원으로 고려하여 제안한 어군행동을 나타내는 수치 모델의 타당성을 검토하기 위하여 수치 모델의 잔차에 대한 백색성검정 및 실험과 시뮬레이션에 의한 결과를 비교하는 두 가지 방법을 사용하였다. 모형 그물이 없는 경우와 모형 그물이 있는 경우 모두 잔치의 평균이 0에 가까우며, 그 표준편차는 대체로 $\pm$7 이내로서 잔차의 거동이 안정된 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 개체수가 5마리 이상이고 유속이 20cm/sec 이하인 경우에는 수치 모델에 의한 잔차의 자기상관함수가 95%의 유음수준에서 유음한 것으로 나타났으므로, 잔차는 백색잡음의 양상으로 나타나는 것으로 볼 수 있으며, 이 수치 모델은 대체로 타당한 것으로 간주할 수 있다. 실험과 시뮬레이션에 의한 결과에 대하여 어군의 유영특성을 나타내는 지표로서 유영궤적, 수조벽과 개체 사이의 거리, 유영속도, 유영 깊이, 개체상호간의 최근접거리 등을 비교하면, 실험과 시뮬레이션에 의한 결과가 완전히 일치하지는 않으나 대체로 그 경향이 유사한 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과에서 어군의 유영공간을 3차원으로 고려하여 유속의 변화에 따른 어군행동의 추정이 어느 정도 가능해짐으로서, 앞으로 보다 발전된 모델링 기법을 도입하면 현장에서의 적용가능성이 있을 것으로 생각된다. 그러나, 이러한 일련의 연구에서는 실험의 편의를 위하여 시간의 변화에 따른 유향과 유속의 변화를 고려하지 않고 일정 방향의 일정 유속만을 고려하였기 때문에, 현장에서의 적용을 위해서는 환경요인, 공간상의 환경조건 및 어군의 규모에 의한 차이 등 해결해야 할 문제점이 많이 남아 있다. 현단계에서의 과제는 축양장과 같은 제한된 공간에서의 어군행동의 예측, 제어등이 가능하도록 모델링에 관한 연구가 계속되어야 할 것이다.

  • 풍력발전단지 위치 선정에 있어 풍속 분포 및 발전량을 평가하기 위해 해당 지역의 기상 타워에서 계측된 바람 자료를 이용한다. 그러나 기상 타워에서 계측된 바람 자료는 종종 정보가 누락되거나 원하는 높이에 맞지 않거나, 혹은 데이터 길이가 충분하지 않아 풍력터빈 제어 및 성능 시뮬레이션 수행에 어려움을 겪게 된다. 따라서 풍력터빈 혹은 발전단지에 대한 연간 발전량 및 이용률을 평가하는데 원하는 높이에서 장기간의 연속적인 바람 자료는 매우 중요하다. 또한, 한반도와 같이 계절에 따른 풍향과 풍속 변동이 뚜렷한 경우에는 계절별 특징이 고려된 풍속과 풍향을 동반한 바람 자료를 고려해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 통계적 방법인 은닉 마르코프 모델을 이용하여 풍속과 풍향의 변동을 고려한 인공 바람을 생성하기 위한 방법을 제시한다. 통계처리를 위한 바람 자료는 전라북도 고군산군도에 있는 말도의 기상청 방재기상관측(AWS) 장비에서 계측된 자료를 사용한다. 은닉 마르코프 모델에 의해 생성된 인공 바람은 통계 변수, 풍력에너지밀도, 계절별 평균 풍속, 주 풍향 등을 계측 자료와 비교를 통해 검증하기로 한다.

  • 본 연구는 도시 근린공원의 열쾌적성을 평가하고 이에 따른 열환경 개선방안을 도출하고자 연구를 진행하였다. 먼저 공원의 주요 열환경 인자의 분포특성 및 공간 유형별 차이를 평가한 결과, 기온, 상대습도, 풍속의 경우 공간적으로 뚜렷한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 그러나 평균복사온도는 공간의 개방정도 및 포장재질에 따라 큰 차이를 나타내는 것으로 확인되었다. 추출된 열환경 인자를 토대로 공간 유형에 따른 열쾌적성을 평가한 결과, 광장의 PMV(Predicted Mean Vote, 예상온열감) 지수가 4.39로 가장 높게 나타났으며, 동선의 경우 2.58, 녹지 1.90 그리고 휴게공간은 0.42로 평가되었다. 이러한 열쾌적성을 결정하는 열환경 요인에 대한 중요도를 평가해보기 위하여 PMV 회귀모형을 구축한 결과, 평균복사온도(1.084), 풍속(-0.280), 기온(0.013), 상대습도(-0.009)의 순으로 PMV에 대한 상대적인 중요도가 높게 나타났다. 열환경적 측면에서 개선이 필요한 지역을 대상으로 시나리오 분석을 실시한 결과, 반사율, 색상, 포장재질의 물리적 특성 변화를 통해 인체가 체감하는 열쾌적성을 향상시킬 수 있으며, 실제 공원에 이를 적용하여 개선안을 마련할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

  • This paper addresses solutions th the challenges of carrier phase integer ambiguity resolution and cycle slip detection/identification, for maintaining high accuracy of an integrated GPS/Pseudolite/INS system. Such a hybrid positioning and navigation system is an augmentation of standard GPS/INS systems in localized areas. To achieve the goal of high accuracy, the carrier phase measurements with correctly estimated integer ambiguities must be utilized to update the system integration filter's states. The contribution presents an effective approach to increase the reliability and speed of integer ambiguity resolution through using pseudolite and INS measurements, with special emphasis on reducing the ambiguity search space. In addition, an algorithm which can effectively detect and correct the cycle slips is described as well. The algorithm utilizes additional position information provided by the INS, and applies a statistical technique known as th cumulative-sun (CUSUM) test that is very sensitive to abrupt changes of mean values. Results of simulation studies and field tests indicate that the algorithms are performed pretty well, so that the accuracy and performance of the integrated system can be maintained, even if cycle slips exist in the raw GPS measurements.

  • The overarching objective of this study is to predict the convective heat transfer around a human body under forced strong airflow conditions assuming a strong wind blowing through high-rise buildings or an air shower system in an enclosed space. In this study, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analyses of the flow field and temperature distributions around a human body were carried out to estimate the convective heat transfer coefficient for a whole human body assuming adult male geometry under forced convective airflow conditions between 15 m/s and 25 m/s. A total of 45 CFD analyses were analyzed with boundary conditions that included differences in the air velocity, wind direction and turbulence intensity. In the case of approach air velocity $U_{in}=25m/s$ and turbulent intensity TI = 10%, average convective heat transfer coefficient was estimated at approximately $100W/m^2/K$ for the whole body, and strong dependence on air velocity and turbulence intensity was confirmed. Finally, the formula for the mean convective heat transfer coefficient as a function of approaching average velocity and turbulence intensity was approximated by using the concept of equivalent steady wind speed ($U_{eq}$).
