This study is to estimate the spatial soil moisture using Terra MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) satellite data and machine learning technique. Using the 3 years (2015~2017) data of MODIS 16 days composite NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) and daily Land Surface Temperature (LST), ground measured precipitation and sunshine hour of KMA (Korea Meteorological Administration), the RDA (Rural Development Administration) 10 cm~30 cm average TDR (Time Domain Reflectometry) measured soil moisture at 78 locations was tested. For daily analysis, the missing values of MODIS LST by clouds were interpolated by conditional merging method using KMA surface temperature observation data, and the 16 days NDVI was linearly interpolated to 1 day interval. By applying the RNN-LSTM (Recurrent Neural Network-Long Short Term Memory) artificial neural network model, 70% of the total period was trained and the rest 30% period was verified. The results showed that the coefficient of determination ($R^2$), Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), and Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency were 0.78, 2.76%, and 0.75 respectively. In average, the clay soil moisture was estimated well comparing with the other soil types of silt, loam, and sand. This is because the clay has the intrinsic physical property for having narrow range of soil moisture variation between field capacity and wilting point.

토양수분량은 가뭄, 홍수 및 갈수 예보, 유출 해석, 작물의 소비수량 산정과 같이 국가 물 관리 및 수자원 계획 및 개발 등의 목적으로 활용되고 있다. 또한, 생태수문학의 중요한 인자로써 식생의 성장 및 변동의 원인과 결과를 동시에 제공한다. 이는 대기의 상호작용 및 총체적인 물 수지와 관련되며 지표면의 침투, 증발산, 오염물의 이송 및 생태계에도 중요한 인자로 활용된다. 토양수분량은 수자원 부존량에 차지하는 비중은 매우 적지만 대상유역의 유출기구 특성을 지배하는 주요인자로 작용하여 홍수량의 규모에 크게 영향을 미친다. 미국 등 여러 선진 외국에서는 오래 전부터 토양수분에 대한 이론적인 개념을 정립하여 토양수분량을 정기적으로 관측해 오고 있다. 우리나라 또한 토양수분량 관측을 하고 있으며, 주로 농업목적으로 토양수분량 관측소가 운영되고 있다. 그 중 기상청에서는 주로 농업기상관측 항목에 포함하여 농업기상관측소를 운영하고 있으며, 농촌진흥청에서는 농작물의 생육 목적으로 토양수분량 자료를 관측하고 있다. 하지만, 유역 단위의 가뭄과 물 순환을 규명하기 위한 연구가 부족하여 최근 국토교통부에서는 유역 단위의 토양수분량 자료생산 연구를 계획하고 있다. 유역 단위의 토양수분관측의 어려움은 주로 산지에서 발생하는 토양수분의 변동이다. 이는 사면의 유출과 식생의 영향 및 기반암의 영향을 받기 때문이다. 본 연구에서는 청미천(수레의산)과 설마천(감악산) 산지 사면에 설치된 유전율식(TDR, Time Domain Reflectometer)장비로 관측된 최근 3년간(2015~2017)의 데이터를 이용하여 경년변화특성을 분석하였다. 분석 결과는 유역의 물 순환을 규명하는데 가장 중요한 연구로써 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

산림 사면에서의 토양층 수문반응은 물순환을 이해하는데 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 토양수분자료를 이용하여 토양수분의 계절적, 공간적 변화를 분석하였다. 연구대상지역은 경기도 파주시 적성면 설마리의 설마천 유역 내에 위치한 범륜사사면과 충청북도 음성군의 청미천 유역내의 수레의산사면이다. 정밀측량을 통해 획득한 수치고도모형(Digital Elevation Model, DEM)을 이용하여 관측지점들을 각각 선정하였다. 대상사면에 토양층별 토양수분의 분포변화를 분석하기 위해 각 지점별 10, 30, 60cm에서 토양수분량 측정시스템(Time Domain Reflectometry, TDR)방식의 토양수분측정장비(miniTRASE)를 설치하여 2시간 간격으로 2014년 3월부터 12월까지 토양수분을 측정하였다. 각 지점별 사면에서 획득된 토양수분 시계열자료는 토양수분의 시공간적 분포특성을 파악하기 위해 지점별 토양수분량의 통계분석(평균, 표준편차, 변동계수)를 수행하였다. 설마천유역의 범륜사사면에서는 2014년도에 특히 강우량이 적어 토양수분의 평균과 표준편차의 월별 변화에서는 기저토양수분 값을 주로 유지하고 강우에 대한 변동성이 크지 않은 것으로 나타났고, 청미천유역의 수레의산 사면에서는 시간적 토양수분변화는 계절적 강우분포 패턴에 따라 반응이 나타났다. 청미천유역의 토양수분자료를 이용하여 토양수분의 계절적, 공간적 변화를 분석한 결과 지표근처 토양층(10, 30cm)와 저층(60cm)에서의 공간적 변화특성이 다르게 나타났다. 이는 저층(60cm)에서의 지표하 흐름, 기반암 존재의 영향차이에 의한 것으로 판단되고, 사면의 위치에 따라 토양수분의 안정화 정도가 다른 것을 확인할 수 있다.

In this study, the feasibility of using telecommunication single-mode optical fiber (SMF) as a distributed fiber optic strain and crack sensor was evaluated in concrete pavement monitoring. Tensile tests on various sensors indicated that the $SMF-28e^+$ fiber revealed linear elastic behavior to rupture at approximately 26 N load and 2.6% strain. Six full-scale concrete panels were prepared and tested under truck and three-point loads to quantify the performance of sensors with pulse pre-pump Brillouin optical time domain analysis (PPP-BOTDA). The sensors were protected by precast mortar from brutal action during concrete casting. Once air-cured for 2 hours after initial setting, half a mortar cylinder of 12 mm in diameter ensured that the protected sensors remained functional during and after concrete casting. The strains measured from PPP-BOTDA with a sensitivity coefficient of $5.43{\times}10^{-5}GHz/{\mu}{\varepsilon}$ were validated locally by commercial fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors. Unlike the point FBG sensors, the distributed PPP-BOTDA sensors can be utilized to effectively locate multiple cracks. Depending on their layout, the distributed sensors can provide one- or two-dimensional strain fields in pavement panels. The width of both micro and major cracks can be linearly related to the peak strain directly measured with the distributed fiber optic sensor.

The global performance of the 5MW OC4 semisubmersible floating wind turbine in random waves was numerically simulated by using the turbine-floater-mooring fully coupled and time-domain dynamic analysis program FAST-CHARM3D. There have been many papers regarding floating offshore wind turbines but the effects of second-order wave-body interactions on their global performance have rarely been studied. The second-order wave forces are actually small compared to the first-order wave forces, but its effect cannot be ignored when the natural frequencies of a floating system are outside the wave-frequency range. In the case of semi-submersible platform, second-order difference-frequency wave-diffraction forces and moments become important since surge/sway and pitch/roll natural frequencies are lower than those of typical incident waves. The computational effort related to the full second-order diffraction calculation is typically very heavy, so in many cases, the simplified approach called Newman's approximation or first-order-wave-force-only are used. However, it needs to be justified against more complete solutions with full QTF (quadratic transfer function), which is a main subject of the present study. The numerically simulated results for the 5MW OC4 semisubmersible floating wind turbine by FAST-CHARM3D are also extensively compared with the DeepCWind model test results by Technip/NREL/UMaine. The predicted motions and mooring tensions for two white-noise input-wave spectra agree well against the measure values. In this paper, the numerical static-offset and free-decay tests are also conducted to verify the system stiffness, damping, and natural frequencies against the experimental results. They also agree well to verify that the dynamic system modeling is correct to the details. The performance of the simplified approaches instead of using the full QTF are also tested.

This paper analyses the data collected from the $2^{nd}$ Jindo Bridge, a cable-stayed bridge in Korea that is a structural health monitoring (SHM) international test bed for advanced wireless smart sensors network (WSSN) technology. The SHM system consists of a total of 70 wireless smart sensor nodes deployed underneath of the deck, on the pylons, and on the cables to capture the vibration of the bridge excited by traffic and environmental loadings. Analysis of the data is performed in both the time and frequency domains. Modal properties of the bridge are identified using the frequency domain decomposition and the stochastic subspace identification methods based on the output-only measurements, and the results are compared with those obtained from a detailed finite element model. Tension forces for the 10 instrumented stay cables are also estimated from the ambient acceleration data and compared both with those from the initial design and with those obtained during two previous regular inspections. The results of the data analyses demonstrate that the WSSN-based SHM system performs effectively for this cable-stayed bridge, giving direct access to the physical status of the bridge.

In general, deflection limit criteria of bridge design specifications have been considered based on static serviceability and structural stability. Dynamic serviceability induced from bridge vibration actually has not been included in the criteria. Thus, it is necessary for deflection limit to be considered in order to check dynamic service- ability on bridge vibration. In this study, The allowable displacement of Korea Railway Bridge Design Specifications is compared to the frequency domain comfort limit and analyzed france code and japanese code. Korea Railway Bridge Design Specifications is regulated based on the train speed. Such is because the vibration time duration is partly considered. but this criteria is not satisfied with comfort limit. and, it is estimated to be capable to provide deflection limit considering dynamic serviceability. In order to evaluate the dynamic serviceability of various types of railway bridges in current public were selected and their dynamic signals were measured. and the result of the bridge-train interaction analysis according to the changes in bridge stiffness was compared to the comfort limit to suggest the stiff-ness limit to the dynamic serviceability, which should conveniently be applied at the field.

The presented paper gives an overview of several projects addressing the experimental characterization and control of the buffet phenomenon on 3D turbulent wings in transonic flow conditions. This aerodynamic instability induces strong wall pressure fluctuations and therefore limits flight domain. Consequently, to enlarge the latter but also to provide more flexibility during the design phase, it is interesting to try to delay the buffet onset. This paper summarizes the main investigations leading to the achievement of open and closed-loop buffet control and its experimental demonstration. Several wind tunnel tests campaigns, performed on a 3D half wing/fuselage body, enabled to characterize the buffet aerodynamic instability and to study the efficiency of innovative fluidic control devices designed and manufactured by ONERA. The analysis of the open-loop databases demonstrated the effects on the usual buffet characteristics, especially on the shock location and the separation areas on the wing suction side. Using these results, a closed-loop control methodology based on a quasi-steady approach was defined and several architectures were tested for various parameters such as the input signal, the objective function, the tuning of the feedback gain. All closed-loop methods were implemented on a dSPACE device able to estimate in real time the fluidic actuators command calculated mainly from the unsteady pressure sensors data. The efficiency of delaying the buffet onset or limiting its effects was demonstrated using the quasi-steady closed-loop approach and tested in both research and industrial wind tunnel environments.

Calcium homeostasis modulator 1 (CALHM1) is a membrane protein with four transmembrane helices that form an octameric ion channel with voltage-dependent activation. There are four conserved cysteine (Cys) residues in the extracellular domain that form two intramolecular disulfide bonds. We investigated the roles of C42-C127 and C44-C161 in human CALHM1 channel biogenesis and the ionic current (I_CALHM1). Replacing Cys with Ser or Ala abolished the membrane trafficking as well as I_CALHM1. Immunoblotting analysis revealed dithiothreitol-sensitive multimeric CALHM1, which was markedly reduced in C44S and C161S, but preserved in C42S and C127S. The mixed expression of C42S and wild-type did not show a dominant-negative effect. While the heteromeric assembly of CALHM1 and CALHM3 formed active ion channels, the co-expression of C42S and CALHM3 did not produce functional channels. Despite the critical structural role of the extracellular cysteine residues, a treatment with the membrane-impermeable reducing agent tris(2-carboxyethyl) phosphine (TCEP, 2 mM) did not affect I_CALHM1 for up to 30 min. Interestingly, incubation with TCEP (2 mM) for 2-6 h reduced both I_CALHM1 and the surface expression of CALHM1 in a time-dependent manner. We propose that the intramolecular disulfide bonds are essential for folding, oligomerization, trafficking and maintenance of CALHM1 in the plasma membrane, but dispensable for the voltage-dependent activation once expressed on the plasma membrane.

Rapid development and dissemination of ICT have brought about vast change in people's lives, including academic research and communication. Considering that the purpose of constructing Internet was to facilitate information exchange among research institutions and to secure stability through distributed preservation of critical information of the countries, increase in utilizing Internet resources for academic research seems to be natural consequences. This study examines the stability of Internet information resources by analyzing the following four factors. First, monitoring whether there is a change in accessibility to information resource as time passes. Second, examining various factors affecting the accessibility. Third, checking if there is a change in the content of information, if still accessible. Lastly verifying if any alternative access path is provided in case of original resource is no longer accessible.
