이동상 하도에서 하천정비 및 안정하도 유지를 위해서는 하상변동 특성을 면밀히 파악하는 것이 중요하다. 본 연구에서 임진강을 대상으로 퇴적경향이 있는 하류구간에서의 하상층구조 조사를 포함하여 남한지역 전 구간에 걸쳐 하상재료를 직접 채취하여 입도분포를 조사하였다. 이를 토대로 하도형성을 지배하는 하도특성량 분석과 HEC-6에 의한 하상변동 예측을 통해 임진강 하강변동 특성을 파악하였다. 연구결과, 이동상 하도인 임진강에서 하상재료의 입도분포 및 하상 층구조 조사를 통하여 하상변동 특성을 파악할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 초평도를 경계로 상류(자갈하천)와 하류(모래/실트)간에 하도특성이 급변하는 경향을 확인하였다. 하도특성으로는 초평도 상류구간에서는 별다른 하상변동이 없는 반면, 감조하천구간인 장단반도 지구에서 실트/모래로 구성된 하상재료로 퇴적경향이 지속하고 있다는 사실을 확인할 수 있었다. 초평도를 전후로 하여 조석작용과 함께 지형/지질여건이 급변하는 특이성이 임진강의 하상변동에 결정적인 요소가 되고 있음을 확인하였다.

Compared with general rivers, fluctuations of the water level and the river bed are severe in the tidal river. In hydro-dynamic aspect, such fluctuation gives different river-bed data to us according to observing period. The time-dependent river-bed data and pre-estimation of the Manning's roughness coefficient which is the key factor of numerical modelling induces uncertainty of evaluating the design flood level. Thus it is necessary to pay more attention to calculate the flood level at tidal rivers than at general rivers. In this study, downstream of the Imjin River where is affected by tide of the West Sea selected as a study site. From the numerical modelling, it was shown that the unsteady simulation gave considerable mitigation of the water level from the starting point to 15 km upstream compared to the steady simulation. Either making a detention pond or optional dredging was not effective to mitigate the flood level at Gugok - Majung region where is located in the downstream of the Imjin River. Therefore, a more sophisticated approach is required to evaluate the design flood level estimation before constructive measures adopted in general rivers when establishing the flood control plan in a tidal river.

The development of bars and sediment sorting processes in the braided channels with the mixed grain sizes are investigated experimentally in this study. The sediment in the steep slope channels discharges with highly fluctuation. However, it discharges with relatively periodic cycles in the mild slope channels. The characteristics and amplitudes of the dominant bars are examined by double fourier analysis. The dimensionless sediment particle size decreases as the longitudinal bed elevation increases. However, the size increases as the longitudinal bed elevation decreases. As the dimensionless critical tractive force in the surface layer ratio to the force in the subsurface layer increases, the surface geometric mean size of sediments and the dimensionless sediment particle size decrease. This means that coarse matrix is formed with the dimensionless tractive force by the sediment selective sorting.

Effects of packing materials on the pressure fluctuations in a fluidized bed have been analysed using statistical method to interpret fluidized bed behavior. The experiments were carried out in a fluidized bed of 6.7cm - ID, and the experimental variables were particle size and its distributions, fluidizing velocity, aspect ratio, and packing materials, etc. Screen packings are used as packing material, the properties of the pressure fluctuations in the fluidized bed were measured by a differential pressure transducer. The measured properties for the pressure fluctuations were the mean, the standard deviation, and the major frequency of the power spectral density functions, etc. The standard deviations of the pressure fluctuations have been slightly affected in the radial directions of fluidized bed, and almost constant in axial directions the height above 4.5cm of the distributor of fuidized bed without packing materials. The major frequency decreased with increaing packing size, whereas it showed maximum at 10% of packing materials. It has been found that the standard deviation of the pressure fluctuations can effectively explain the fluidized phenomena, and the packing materials severely affected the properties of the pressure fluctuations.

Most of urban streams in Korea have been changed channel forms and suffered from direct inflow of domestic sewage, etc. Therefore, maintenance of structure and function of those ecosystem are hard. The present study was carried out to examine the life survival maintenance ability of the stream by community analysis of aquatic animals in typical urban stream (Jungrang stream) in Seoul. The aquatic animals were composed of 31 species, 18 families, 8 orders, 5 classes in 4 phyla. Seasonal species number showed big fluctuation between 8 species in Winter and 24 species in Autumn. Major dominant species in Jungrang stream were Tubificidae sp.1, Chironomidae sp.1, Chironomidae sp.2 and Physa acuta, and above endurance species for water pollution occupied very high dominance indices. But, Cercion hieroglyphicum, Ischnura asiatica, Rantra chinensis, Herochares striatus, Agabus japonicus in benthic macroinvertebrates of a few individuals are appeared. Also, fry of Carassius auratus and Silurus asotus in fish are occurred. Therefore, we can be inferred on posibility of growth and spawning of above species in the stream. Jungrang stream has a small quantity of natural riffle areas, ponds and watergrass areas by channel form of water course. Aquatic animals in Jungrang stream has been suffered by reduction of self-purification reaction ability and have mass production of attached algae on the stream bed. For analysis of fluctuation of life survival maintenance ability in Jungrang stream, long-term survey is needed.

In 2012, fishes caught by three-side fyke net in the coastal waters of Jedo were assessed for species composition and seasonal fluctuation in their abundance. The fish were caught at two research stations (St.) and were found to comprise 53 species, 39 families, and 9 orders. The dominant species were Takifugu niphobles, Lateolabrax maculatus, and Acanthopagrus schlegelii. To gain a measure of their biodiversity, all the species were assessed for their number, richness, diversity, evenness, and dominance. The highest and lowest number of total caught fish individuals was recorded in summer and winter, respectively. The diversity index was the highest in summer and lowest in winter. The evenness index was the highest in summer and lowest in spring. The richness index was highest in summer and lowest in winter. Furthermore, the dominance index was highest in spring and lowest in autumn.

Aquifer thermal energy storage (ATES) system uses groundwater thermal energy for cooling and heating of buildings, and it is also often utilized to provide warm water to crops and plants for the purpose of enhancing agricultural yields. This study investigated the potential influences of a ATES system on the geochemical properties of groundwater by simulating the variation of hydrochemistry and saturation index of groundwater during ATES operation. The test bed was installed at an agricultural field, which is mainly composed of an groundwater-rich alluvial plain. The simulation results showed no significant precipitation of mineral phases such as manganese-iron oxide, carbonate and sulfate around the ATES test bed, as well as no debasement of other important water quality parameters. The implementation of ATES system in the study area was appropriate and effective for utilizing the thermal energy of groundwater for agricultural use.

The Hangang river estuary, which is a natural estuary without structures such as estuary barrage, is an ecological pathway connecting the sea and rivers. Accordingly, Hangang river estuary has various species, and there is very valuable. Sediment classification in Hangang river estuary is three-dimensionally and diversely is distributed. Sediment classification in Hangang river estuary is also sensitively changed according to various factors such as climate change and river development. It is typically cause to landform and to develop a compound cross section. In Janghang wetland, the plant success is remarkable according to the morphological change at river bed. The purpose of this study is to identify the mechanism of wetland formation based on the observation on-site. As a result of the observation, Janghang wetland where was artificially created, has been grown according to the river bed change based on the flow rate and the plant success. The viscous surface layer material(fine grains of wash rod properties), which is not the main material(sand) of the river bed, but sub-materials of river bed, jas been settled on the pioneer plants(bolboschoenus planiculmis, etc.). It is an important role in the growth of a compound cross section and a wetland. After the wetland developed to the compound cross section, it is observed that the pioneer plants are transferred to other plant species.

In diesel engines, it is inevitable that the torsional vibration is produced by the fluctuation of engine torque. Therefore, if the occurence of torsional vibration is confirmed in the design stage or the torsional vibration is observed on the bed of test run, it is necessary to establish some preventive measures to avoid dangerous conditions. Major preventive measures are as follows : 1. Changing the natural frequency of shaft system. 2. Repressing the vibration amplitude by the damping energy. 3. Counterbalancing the exciting torque by the resistant torque. 4. Counterbalacing the harmonic component of exciting energy. In above methos, the damper is the last measure to be used for controlling the torsional vibration. In this thesis, the design of viscous damper that absorbs the exciting energy is investigated and a number of problems associated with the design of viscous damper are treated and a computer pregram for the process of damper design is developed. A viscous damper for a high speed diesel engine is designed and its effect is simulated by the author's computer program.

To construct seamless collaborative environments, what all participants intent should be delivered, and visual elements such gesture, facial expression, and ambiance should be shared with all participants. In this paper, we propose high-quality video service to support DV(digital video) and HDV(high-definition DV) based on Access Grid(AG) which is a prevalent collaborative system. The proposed service is designed for employing versatile media tools and codecs with SDP(session description protocol) and SAP(session announcement protocol). We also design network-adaptive video transmission module to mitigate the impact of network fluctuation. This periodically monitors multicast performance and controls frame rate on sender side considering network condition. The experimental results over the test bed show that proposed service enhances quality of AG video service and provides seamless high-quality video transport by mitigating the impact of network fluctuation.
