In this numerical study, the 2D dynamic behavior of a clayey basin and its effect on damage pattern over basin edge are investigated. To attain this goal, a fully nonlinear time domain analysis method has been applied. Then, the fragility curves of the considered two typical industrial structures for that certain point are estimated using the acceleration time histories recorded at each surface point. The results show that the use of the damage related parameters in site effect analyses, instead of amplification curves, can yield more realistic estimation of the basin dynamic response. In a distance about 150 m from outcrop at the basin edge, the differences between fragility curves increase when increasing the distance from outcrop with respect to the reference rock site. Outside this region and towards the basin center, they tend to occur in rather single curves. Furthermore, to connect the structural damage to the basin edge effect, the earthquake demand value at different points for two typical structures was evaluated. It was seen that the probability of occurrence of damage increases over 250 m from outcrop, while the effect of the basin edge was limited to 150 m in case of the basin edge evaluation by using fragility curves.

Investigations has shown that the correct estimation of the effective amplification period is as important as the amplification value itself. It gets more important in 2D basins. This study presents a quantitative coefficient for consideration of the nonlinearity effect in terms of amplification value and the shift in its period which is missing or ineffectively considered in the previous studies. To attain this goal, by the application of a time domain fully nonlinear method, the deviation of the more common equivalent linear results from the basin nonlinear behavior under strong ground motions is investigated quantitatively. Also, despite the increase in the damping ratio, the possibility of the increase in the amplification due to the increase in motion strength is shown. To make the results useful in engineering practice, by introducing nonlinearity ratio, the effect of the nonlinearity is quantitatively estimated for two soft and stiff clayey basins with three different depths under a set of motions scaled to two target spectrum. Results show that at the 100 m depth soft clayey basin, while the nonlinearity ratio shows a 35% deviation at the basin edge part under DD1 motion level, its effect moves to the central part with 20% effect under DD3 motion level. By the increase in depth to 150 m, the results show a decrease in the overall effect of the nonlinear behavior for both clay types. At this depth, the nonlinearity ratio gives a 30% and 17% difference on a limited distance from outcrop at the soft clayey basin under DD1 and DD3 motion levels, respectively. At the 30 m depth basins, the nonlinearity ratio shows up to 25% difference for different cases. The presented ratio would be introduced as nonlinearity coefficients for consideration of the nonlinearity effects in the codes. The presented quantitative margins will help the designer to have a better understanding of the amplification period change because of nonlinearity over 2D basin surface.

Three-dimensional finite-difference simulation of earthquake ground motion is performed using a locally variable time-step (LVTS) scheme matching with discontinuous grids. Discontinuous grids in three directions and extension of the discontinuous grids' boundary to the free-surface in the LVTS scheme minimize the cost of both the computational memory and the CPU time for models like the localized sedimentary basin. A simplified model of sedimentary basin is dealt to show the feasibility and efficiency of the LVTS scheme. The basin parameters are examined to understand the main characteristics on ground-motion response in the basin. The results show that the seismic energy is concentrated on a marginal area of the basin far from the source. This focusing effect is mainly due to the constructive interference of the direct S-wave with the basin-edge induced surface waves. The ground-motion amplification over the deepest part of the basin is relatively lower than that above the shallow basin edge. Therefore the ground-motion amplification may be more related to the source azimuth or the direction of the incident waves into the basin rather than the depth of it.

Under the effects of the near-field earthquakes, the incident angle of the incoming wave could be different. In this study, the influences of some parameters such as incident angle, basin edge, peak ground acceleration level of the bedrock motion as well as different clay types with different consistency on the amplification behavior of the shallow basins are investigated. To attain this goal, the numerical analyses of the basins filled with three different clay types are performed using a fully nonlinear method. The two dimensional models of the basins are subjected to a set of strong ground motions with different peak ground acceleration levels and three different incident angles of 30◦, 45◦ and 90◦ with respect to the horizontal axes. The results show the dominant effect of the obliquely subjected waves at most cases. The higher effect of the 45◦ incident angle on the basin response was concluded. In the other part of this study, the spectral amplification curves of the surface points were compared. It was seen that the maximum spectral amplification of different surface points occurs at different periods. Also, it is affected by the increase in the peak acceleration level of the incoming motions.

평탄한 자유표면을 갖는 소규모 반구형 분지에서 임의의 전단변형 점진원에 대한 3차원 유한차분 모의를 수행하였다. 자유표면 경계조건을 다루기 위한 새로운 방법을 고안하였다. 분지에서 지반운동 응답에 대한 주요한 특징들을 파악하기 위하여 분지특성 변수를 조사하였다. 분지에서 지반운동의 주파수 함량을 분석하기 위하여, 각 주파수에 대한 진폭을 분지 주변 4개의 위치에서 계산하고 서로 비교하였다. 또한 어떤 종류의 파가 이들 각 지점에서의 지반운동 응답에 우세한 역할을 하는지 보기 위하여 입자운동을 분석하였다. 계산 결과, 지진파 에너지가 진원으로부터 먼 쪽의 분지 경계부에서 집중되는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 집중 효과는 주로 직접 S-파와 분지 경계에서 생성된 표면파의 보강간섭으로 인한 것이다. 또한, 분지의 가장 깊은 곳 상부에서의 지반운동 증폭은 얕은 깊이의 분지 경계 부에 비하여 상대적으로 작게 나타났다. 이러한 결과로부터, 상대적으로 단순한 기반암 경계를 갖는 소규모 분지에서의 지반운동 증폭은 분지의 깊이 보다는 진원의 방위 또는 분지 내부로 입사하는 파의 진행방향에 더 많은 관계가 있다는 것을 추정할 수 있다.

최근 공개된 위성중력을 이용하는 오차 최소화 기법을 적용하여 선상중력내 존재하는 구간 측선간 오차나 교차점 오차를 성공적으로 보정하였으며, 보정된 선상중력을 위성중력과 결합하여 고해상 중력분포를 도출하였다. 오차 최소화 과정에서 울릉분지의 선상중력은 위성중력보다 장주기 성분에서 상대적으로 크게 보정되었으나 단주기 성분은 그대로 보존되었다. 이것은 선상중력이 갖는 단주기의 중력 성분이 훼손되지 않은 채 안정되고 연속성을 갖는 장주기의 인공위성 중력분포에 잘 접합될 수 있다는 것을 보여 준다. 통합된 후리에어이상도는 위성중력의 장주기 성분과 선상중력의 단주기 성분을 모두 표현하므로 해저지형 및 지질분포의 해석에서 보다 상세하고 신뢰성 있는 정보를 제공한다. 후리에어이상은 수심이 깊은 분지 중앙 지역이 해저산이나 대지 등 높은 지형으로 이루어진 분지 주변부 보다 상대적으로 낮게 분포하는 등 전반적으로 해저지형의 분포 경향에 부합되어 변화한다. 그러나 대륙사면을 이루고 있는 분지의 서쪽 및 동쪽 주변부를 따라서는 지역적으로 함몰된 퇴적기반과 두꺼운 퇴적층 및 대륙 주변부에서 특징적인 가장자리 효과로 인한 저이상대가 발달하고 있다. 울릉도 북동부에 위치한 한국대지 및 울릉대지에서 북동-남서방향의 선형분포를 갖는 중력이상은 동해가 열개되는 동안 균열된 지각 사이를 따라 일어난 화산활동의 결과로 형성된 해산이나 관입암체가 선형으로 배열함으로서 기인한 것으로 해석된다. 선형으로 배열된 고중력분포는 울릉대지 서쪽 경계부에서 급구배를 보이는 북북서-남남동 방향의 직선적인 중력분포에 의해 절단되고 있는 데 이 급구배의 중력이상은 울릉대지 서부 경계를 이루는 단층선애에 기인한다. 울릉대지가 서쪽으로 뚜렷한 단층 접촉을 나타내고 있으나 지형적인 형태에 있어서 대비되지 않는 것은 울릉대지가 단층을 경계로 분리되어 이동되어 왔을 가능성을 시사한다. 분지의 중앙 북동부에서는 수심이 깊어지는 데 비해 중력치는 오히려 높아지는 경향을 나타내고 있는 것은 맨틀이 주변부에 비해서 상대적으로 천부에 존재하고 있는 것이 가장 큰 요인이며, 해저지각의 두께가 얇은 대신 지각의 밀도가 주변 대륙보다 높은 데도 기인한다.

The wake characteristics of Contra-Rotating Propeller (CRP) were investigated using numerical simulation and flow measurement. The numerical simulation was carried out with a commercial CFD code based on a Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations solver, and the flow measurement was performed with Stereoscopic Particle Image Velocimetry (SPIV) system. The simulation results were validated through the comparison with the experiment results measured around the leading edge of rudder to investigate the effect of propeller operation under the conditions without propeller, with forward propeller alone, and with both forward and aft propellers. The evolution of CRP wake was analyzed through velocity and vorticity contours on three transverse planes and one longitudinal plane based on CFD results. The trajectories of propeller tip vortex core in the cases with and without aft propeller were also compared, and larger wake contraction with CRP was confirmed.

Efforts to employ smart home sensors to monitor the indoor activities of elderly single residents have been made to assess the feasibility of a safe and healthy lifestyle. However, the bathroom remains an area of blind spot. In this study, we have developed and evaluated a new edge computer device that can automatically detect water usage activities in the bathroom and record the activity log on a cloud server. Three kinds of sound as flushing, showering, and washing using wash basin generated during water usage were recorded and cut into 1-second scenes. These sound clips were then converted into a 2-dimensional image using MEL-spectrogram. Sound data augmentation techniques were adopted to obtain better learning effect from smaller number of data sets. These techniques, some of which are applied in time domain and others in frequency domain, increased the number of training data set by 30 times. A deep learning model, called CRNN, combining Convolutional Neural Network and Recurrent Neural Network was employed. The edge device was implemented using Raspberry Pi 4 and was equipped with a condenser microphone and amplifier to run the pre-trained model in real-time. The detected activities were recorded as text-based activity logs on a Firebase server. Performance was evaluated in two bathrooms for the three water usage activities, resulting in an accuracy of 96.1% and 88.2%, and F1 Score of 96.1% and 87.8%, respectively. Most of the classification errors were observed in the water sound from washing. In conclusion, this system demonstrates the potential for use in recording the activities as a lifelog of elderly single residents to a cloud server over the long-term.

본 연구는 북한산 국립공원을 대상으로 등산로가 산림경관의 파편화에 미치는 영향을 분석한 후, 이를 토대로 소유역별 경관생태학적 건전성을 평가하였다. 등산로 개설에 의한 영향 분석 결과에 따르면, 산림패치의 크기는 감소한 반면 패치 및 가장자리 밀도는 증가한 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 패치형태는 보다 복잡해지고, 핵심지역의 면적은 뚜렷하게 감소하였고, 패치간의 근접도는 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 한편, 소유역별 경관생태학적 건전성 평가 결과, 종합적인 건전성은 북한산유역이 3.7점으로 가장 높게 나타났으며, 구기유역이 1.6점으로 가장 낮게 평가되었다. 이상의 결과를 종합해 볼 때, 산림의 경관생태학적 보전과 관리를 위해서는 불필요한 등산로의 개설을 금지하고, 훼손 및 교란 지역에 대한 자연적인 생태학적 복원이 이루어져야 할 것으로 판단된다.
