Due to frequent occurrence of a localized torrential downpour caused by global warming and change of outflow tendency caused by rapid urbanization and industrialization, risk analysis must be carried out in levee design with uncertainty. In this study, reliability analysis was introduced to quantitatively evaluate the overtopping risk of levee by the uncertainty. First of all, breaking function was established as a function of flood stage and height of levee. All variables of breaking function were considered as random variables following any distribution functions, and the risk was defined as the possibility that the flood stage is formed higher than height of levee. The risk evaluation model was developed with AFDA (Approximate Full Distribution Approach). The flood stage computed by 2-D numerical model FESWMS-2DH was used as input data for the model of levee risk evaluation. Risk for levee submergence were quantitatively presented for levee of Wol-Song-Cheon.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the effect of smoking duration, smoked cigarettes per day and smoking cessation period on pulmonary function among ex-smokers: based on the 6th Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES). Methods: This study was analyzed using the 6th KNHANES data. Pulmonary function tests were performed on a total of 4,214 adults (> 40 years old). A total of 770 adults ex-smokers were eligible for inclusion in the final analysis. Forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in one second ($FEV_1$) and $FEV_1/FEV$ were measured to evaluate pulmonary function. Results: This study showed that there were significant differences in both $FEV_1$ and FVC values based on gender, age and height, among ex-smokers. $FEV_1/FVC$ significantly differed by age, height and the smoking duration prior to smoking cessation. Multiple regression analysis revealed that, $FEV_1/FVC$ accounted for 26.0% of the variance by age, height and smoking duration. There was a difference in the mean value of $FEV_1/FVC$ with or without smoking for more than 10 years. Conclusion: This study's findings show that smoking for over 10 years in an ex-smoker can lead to problems with the respiratory system. The long-term cigarette has progressive ill effects on the respiratory system.

개수로의 난류흐름을 VOF(Volume of Fluid)기법을 채용한 RANS(Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes) 방정식 모형을 사용하여 수치모의할 때 벽면함수의 거칠기를 산정하기 위해 고려해야 하는 점들을 연구하였다. 거친 벽면상의 흐름을 위한 벽면함수의 거칠기 상수(roughness constant)는 관수로 흐름의 실험을 통하여 얻어진 값을 사용한다. 그러나 개수로 흐름에서는 이 거칠기 상수가 Froude 수에 따라 변화하므로 이를 고려할 수 있어야 하며, 개수로에서 광범위하게 사용되는 Manning 조도계수에 상응하는 벽면 거칠기 높이(roughness height)를 산정하여 사용할 수 있어야 있다. 본 연구에서는 모형에 입력되는 벽면함수의 거칠기 높이와 Manning 조도계수 사이의 관계를 분석하였다. 이를 바탕으로 수치모형의 특성이 고려되고 Manning 조도계수의 함수로 표현되는 유효 거칠기 높이 산정식을 제안하였다.

최대 엔트로피 방법을 이용하여 강한 비정규분포과정의 특성을 갖는 비선형 불규칙 파고의 확률밀도 함수를 유도하였다. 파랑의 파고가 쇄파고(또는 수심)에 의해 제한되고 파고의 1, 2차 모멘트만 주어졌을 경우, 유도된 확률밀도함수는 $H_{b}$ (쇄파고), $H_{m}$(평균파고), $H_{rms}$(파고의 제곱평균평방근)의 매개변수로 폐합형(closed form)으로 표시된다. 파고의 3차 이상의 모멘트가 주어진 경우에는 최대 엔트로피를 갖는 확률밀도함수의 매개변수를 구하기 위해서 비선형 적분 방정식 계를 Newton-Raphson 방법을 이용하여 수치적으로 구하였다. 최대 엔트로피 방법을 이용하여 유도된 파고의 확률밀도함수를 비정규분포의 특성이 강한 실측자료와 비교하였다. 실측자료는 폭풍시 중간수심과 천해에서 측정된 쇄파고에 가까운 자료로서 강한 비선형 불규칙 파랑의 특성을 지니며, 이 경우에도 유도된 확률밀도함수가 측정된 파고의 막대그래프와 잘 일치하였다. 강한 비선형 불규칙파의 특성을 갖는 파랑의 파고일 경우에도 파고의 1, 2차 모멘트만으로도 파고의 분포를 잘 나타낼 수 있었다. 최대 엔트로피 방법을 이용하여 구해진 파고의 확률분포함수는 해안구조물의 설계파를 결정하는 극치파고분포와 파고의 통계적인 특성을 추정하는데 매우 유용하게 이용될 수 있다.

Eskilson's g-function, a well-known geothermal heat response factor, is widely used for sizing of the ground heat exchangers. Unlike the Eskilson's original model that uses common temperature boundaries for all boreholes and along the borehole height, an analytical-solution-based g-function uses a uniform heat transfer rate over the height with variable heat transfer rates for respective boreholes. To evaluate the impact of such a boundary difference on g-function and the design length, a simple case study was carried out on the cooling-dominant commercial buildings. The results show that the design lengths given by the boundary of uniform heat transfer rates are longer than those given by Eskilson's boundary for all cases tested. The difference in length is more important when the bore field is composed of more boreholes with shorter length of each borehole.

While sludge is settling in batch column, sludge concentration becomes high. Because the characteristic of sludge settling changes in function of time due to the sludge concentration change, the sludge settling velocity changes too. Also, because the sludge settling characteristic is influenced by a physical characteristic of sludge and a column height etc, it is difficult to exactly measure the sludge settling characteristic. Although the sludge volume indexes, SVI, SSVI and $SSVI_{3.5}$, are used to predict sludge settling characteristic, these indexes are not reliable values. Because the previously established models for sludge settling velocity predict the sludge settling velocity only, it is difficult to predict sluge-water interface height by using those models. The purpose of this experiment is to establish the empirical model which predicts the sludge interface height change with respect to the sludge physical characteristic and the settling condition.

Microphone array is designed to measure the equivalent source height of vehicle noise. The equivalent source position is defined for an arbirary distribution of acoustic sources above a perfectly reflecting plane and a microphone array for its measurement is developed. The normalized errors of the measured equivalent source heights are defined including the effects of background noise, the geometric near field, and source size. Normalized errors of the measured source heights obtained by a nemerical simulation for each parameter lead to optimization of the microphone spacing and to the design of an array which gives the equivalent source height as a function of frequency. The performance of the designed array is verified using the stationary loudspeaker experiments.

In this paper, a springboard for diving is analysed to find out how much force a diver should apply to reach specific height when the diver jumps. The springboard is presumed to Co-rotational plane cantilever beam(CR-beam), so EDISON program related to Co-rotational framework is used. The force of the person is supposed to sine function and the demanded height is fixed. Same velocity makes same height regardless of diver's weight. So, the velocity of springboard when the feet of a diver are separated from the springboard is a main factor of the analysis. The result shows that there is no association between deformation and weight and also between velocity and weight. That is, the required force to reach a optimal height is fixed whatever the diver's weight is.

In this study, the methodology for determination of shoulder height in the internal shape design of ball bearing using 3D contact analysis is proposed. The static analysis of a ball bearing was performed to calculate the distribution of applied contact load and angles among the rolling elements. From each rolling element loads and the contact geometry between ball and inner/outer raceway, 3D contact analyses using influence function are conducted. These methodology is applied to HDD ball bearing. A critical axial load and a critical shoulder height which are not affected by edge are calculated. The proposed methodology may be applied to other rolling element bearing for the purpose of reducing the material cost and improving the efficiency of the bearing design process.

As the minimum feature size of semiconductor devices scales down to nano-scale regime, ultra shallow junction is highly necessary to suppress short channel effect. At the same time, Ni-silicide has attracted a lot of attention because silicide can improve device performance by reducing the parasitic resistance of source/drain region. Recently, further improvement of device performance by reducing silicide to source/drain region or tuning the work function of silicide closer to the band edge has been studied extensively. Rare earth elements, such as Er and Yb, and Pd or Pt elements are interesting for n-type and p-type devices, respectively, because work function of those materials is closer to the conduction and valance band, respectively. In this paper, we increased the work function between Ni-silicide and source/drain by using Pd stacked structure (Pd/Ni/TiN) for high performance PMOSFET. We demonstrated that it is possible to control the barrier height of Ni-silicide by adjusting the thickness of Pd layer. Therefore, the Ni-silicide using the Pd stacked structure could be applied for high performance PMOSFET.
