  • Accurate measurement of seafloor topography plays a crucial role in developing marine industries such as maritime safety, resource exploration, environmental protection, and coastal management. The seafloor topography is constructed using side scan sonar (SSS) and single beam echosounder (SBES) or multibeam echosounder (MBES), which transmit and receive ultrasound waves through a device attached to a marine survey vessel. However, the use of a sonar system is affected by noise pollution areas, and the single beam has a limited scope of application. At the same time, the multibeam is mainly applicable for depth observation. For these reasons, it is difficult to determine the boundaries and areas of seafloor topography. Therefore, this study proposes a method to improve the backscatter data of multibeam echosounder, which has a relationship with the seafloor quality, by using digital image processing to classify the shape of the underwater surface.

  • ANSI는 교정용 팬텀으로 PMMA 평판형 팬텀을 제시하면서 이에 대한 선량당량환산 계수를 계산하는 방법을 제시하였다. PMMA 평판형 팬텀에 대한 광자의 선량당량환산계수는 ICRU조직 정육면체 팬텀에 대한 후방산란인자 및 선량당량환산계수와 PMMA 평판에 대한 후 방산란인자를 각각 구한 후 이를 이용하여 간접적으로 계산하도록 제시하였다. 그러나 중성자에 대한 PMMA 평판형 팬텀에서의 선량당량환산계수의 계산방법은 아직도 제시하지 못하고 있다. 이 연구에서는 ANSI가 제시한 광자에 대한 선량당량환산계수 계산방법을 중성자에 대해 적용하여 PMMA 평판에 대한 중성자의 선량당량환산계수를 최초로 계산하였다. 중성자에 대해 선질가중조직커마를 도입하여 ICRU 정육번체와 PMMA 평판에서 후방산간인자를 계산하였고 ICRU 정육면체에 대한 중성자의 선량당량환산계수를 계산한 후 이를 이용하여 PMMA 평판에서의 중성자에 대한 선량당량환산계수를 계산하였다. 그 결과 PMMA 평판에 대한 중성자의 선량당량환산계수는 대부분의 에너지 영역에서 ICRU 정육면체에 대한 중성자의 선량당량환산계수와 10% 이내의 차이를 보였으나 1eV. 1keV, 4 MeV에서는 $15{\sim}20%$, 정도 크게 나타났다.

  • 하천 합류부는 두 하천이 만나 형성되는 지역으로 합류부 구간의 혼합 매커니즘을 이해하기 위해서는 지류의 다양한 유입조건에 따른 본류와의 수체혼합의 공간적인 패턴을 분석하는 것이 중요하다. 그러나, 대부분의 합류부 연구들은 실측을 통한 현장데이터를 획득하기 어렵기 때문에 수리 및 수질 수치모형을 통한 연구가 주로 수행되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 지류와 본류의 합류의 혼합 현상을 규명하는 인자로 유속과 수심 등 기본적인 수리학적 인자들 외에 최근 하천 유사측정을 위해 부유사농도의 지표로 연구되고 있는 ADCP의 초음파산란도를 활용하여 합류부에서 상이한 유사특성을 가진 두 수체가 혼합되는 양상을 측정하여 합류부의 혼합 특성을 해석하고자 하였다. 초음파산란도는 부유사와 관련되는 인자로 SonTek ADCP 이동식으로 측정된 초음파산란도(SNR)자료를 빔퍼짐에 대한 보정, 물에 의한 흡수를 고려하여 보정한 후 3차원 혼합거동의 공간적인 분포를 도출하였다. 그리고 측정기간 중 드론(UAV), LISST를 이용하여 합류부의 혼합양상을 모니터링하여 초음파산란도를 이용한 분석결과와 비교하였다. 분석결과, ADCP로부터 제공되는 초음파산란도를 보정한 결과 합류부의 3차원적인 유사 혼합의 공간적 특성을 규명하는 데 적합한 인자라고 할 수 있었고, 상이한 본류와 지류의 유입을 고려하였을 때 다양한 혼합 거동을 분석하는데 지표로 사용이 가능함을 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 남강과 낙동강의 합류부에 대해 초음파산란도를 활용하여 합류부의 혼합 특성을 분석하였다.

  • The range-dependent overlap factor of a lidar system can be determined experimentally if a Raman backscatter signal by molecule is measured in addition to the usually observed elastic backscatter signal, which consists of a molecular component and a particle component. The direct determination of the overlap profile is presented and applied to a lidar measurement according to variation of telescope field-of-view and distance between telescope and transmitting laser. The retrieval of extinction coefficient by Raman method can generate high errors for heights below planetary boundary layer if the overlap effect is ignored. The overlap correction method presented here has been successfully applied to experimental data obtained in Gwangju, Korea.

  • A Digital X-ray imaging system using Compton backscattering has been developed to obtain a cross-sectional profile and mass loss of corroded lap-splices of aging aircraft from density variation. A slit-type camera was designed to focus on a small scattering volume inside the material, from which the backscattered photons are collected by a collimated scintillator detector for interpretation of material characteristics. The cross section of the lap-joint is scanned by moving the scattering volume through the thickness direction of the specimen. The mass loss of each layer has been estimated from a Compton backscatter A-scan to obtain the thickness of each layer including the aluminum sheet, the corrosion layer and the sealant. Quantitative information such as location and width of planar corrosion in the lap splices of fuselages is obtained by deconvolution using a nonlinear least-square error minimization method(BFGS method): A simple reconstruction model is also introduced to overcome distortion of the Compton backscatter data due to attenuation effects attributed to beam hardening and quantum noise.

  • A simple microwave backscattering model for vegetation canopies on earth surfaces is developed in this study. A natural earth surface is modeled as a two-layer structure comprising a vegetation layer and a ground layer. This scattering model includes various scattering mechanisms up to the first-order multiple scattering( double-bounce scattering). Radar backscatter from ground surface has been modeled by the polarimetric semi-empirical model (PSEM), while the backscatter from the vegetation layer modeled by the vector radiative transfer model. The vegetation layer is modeled by random distribution of mixed scattering particles, such as leaves, branches and trunks. The number of input parameters has been minimized to simplify the scattering model. The computation results are compared with the experimental measurements, which were obtained by ground-based scatterometers and NASA/JPL air-borne synthetic aperture radar(SAR) system. It was found that the scattering model agrees well with the experimental data, even though the model used only ten input parameters.

  • Dual phase steels have a microstructure comprising of a polygonal ferrite matrix together with dispersed islands of martensite. There are clear differences between the image quality (IQ) map of the dual phase and the corresponding ferritic/pearlitic structures, both in the as-heat treated and cold rolled conditions. Electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) techniques were used to study the evolution substructure of steel due to plastic deformation. The martensite-ferrite and ferrite-pearlite interfaces were observed. The interface can be a source of mobile dislocations which the bands seem to originate from the martensite islands. In particular, the use of image quality is highlighted.

  • The grain size of a cross-section of $8{\mu}m$-thick copper film was determined by electron backscatter diffraction analysis. Grain size distribution histogram showed the presence of a large fraction of small-sized grains, and the mean grain size was significantly affected by handling of them. A cut-off grain size, below which all grains are ignored as noise and eliminated for the calculation of the mean value, should be three or four times as large as the step size. Due to the presence of small grains, the linear intercept method derived larger mean grain size, which depends less sensitively on the cut-off grain size than the equivalent circle diameter method.

  • Microwave remote sensing plays a major role in areas where cloud cover and darkness prevail. In this and the next paper, models are described for the radar backscatter from two major types of sea ice in an attempt to specify optimum sensor parameters and to allow the most reliable image interpretation possible. Here, the physical-optics model using an exponential correlation function is shown to be able to presict the signatures of first-year ice under cold conditions. The effect of volume scattering by small inclusions in the first-year ics is shown to be negligible using a semi-empirical volume scattering model.

  • The microstructure and texture of TiN coatings on a Ni-based super-alloy were characterized by the automated version of electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD), EBSD techniques were used to investigate the very fine TiN grain shape and crystal orientation. This study confirmed that EBSD techniques provide a very useful tool for characterization of coating materials. The TiN grains had a special texture, a {001}-fiber texture in the coating layer. It was also found that, in severe environments, the coating performance of equiaxial and randomly oriented TiN is superior to that with columnar structures.
