The three-dimensional new corrdinate system over a single hill double hills and complex terrain with a single hill and a rectangular obstacle was generated using a body-fitted coordinate system. Control of the coordinate line distribution in the field was executed by generalizing the elliptic generating system to Poisson equation. ▽2ξ=P. The new coordinate system was well fitted to the surface boundary of single hill and double hills. But in the case of complex terrain with hill and rectangular obstacle there was smoothing tendency around the rectangular obstacle. In order to show the validity of the body-fitted coordinate system the heat diffusion equation was transformed and the temperature distribution was calculated over the various terrain. The results showed the temperature distribution was very symmetrical and stable around hills and obstacle. As a result the couple of a body-fitted coordinate system and the heat diffusion equation were executed successfully. Wind field over complex terrain with hill and rectangular obstacle which represent urban area was simulated stably in body-fitted coordinate system. The qualitative result show the enhancement of wind speed at the upwind direction of a hill and a rectangular obstacle and the recirculation zone at the downwind direction.

A theoretical and numerical investigation on the boundary-layer flow over a two- or three-dimensional hill is presented. The numerical model is based on the finite volume method with boundary-fitted coordinates. The k-$\varepsilon$ turbulence model with modified wall function and the low-Reynolds-number model are employed. The hypothesis of Reynolds number independency for the atmospheric boundary-layer flow over aerodynamically rough terrain is confirmed by the numerical simulation. Comparisons of the mean velocity profiles and surface pressure distributions between the numerical predictions and the wind-tunnel experiments on the flow over a hill show good agreement. The linear theory provides generally good prediction of speed-up characteristics for the gentle-sloped hills. The flow separation occurs in the hill slope of 0.5 and the measured reattachment points are compared with the numerical prediction. It is found that the k- $\varepsilon$ turbulence model is reasonably accurate in predicting the attached flow, while the low- Reynolds-number model is more suitable to simulate the separated flows.ows.

Predictability of a Gaussian model, ISCST2 was assessed by scaling up wind tunnel experiments with a 1/3,000 terrain model to the real scale. Concentration profiles obtained from the flat-terrain experiment in the neutral condition were estimated to be in agreement with the calculated ones from ISCST2 in the stability class A, but the difference between the two was still large. Concentration profiles from the mountainous-terrain experiments were better fitted to the calculated ones primarily because in the experiment, concentration behind the source was raised due to the effect of a hill in the upstream side. Model prediction was improved with including the downwash effect of buildings and the hill, but overall concentration profiles were not much different from a typical Gaussian profile. While concentration profiles in the experiments were changed with local flows by varying the wind direction and the topography, those from the Gaussian modeling were mot freely changed together with these variations.

In the present investigation, a numerical model developed for the prediction of the wind flow over complex terrain is validated by comparing with the field experiments. For the solution of the Reynolds - Averaged Clavier- stokes equations which are the governing equations of the microscale atmospheric flow, the model is constructed based on the finite-volume formulation and the SIMPLEC pressure-correction algorithm for the hydrodynamic computation. The boundary- fitted coordinate system is employed for the detailed depiction of topography. The boundary conditions and the modified turbulence constants suitable for an atmospheric boundary- layer are applied together with the k- s turbulence model. The full- scale experiments of Cooper's Ridge, Kettles Hill and Askervein Hill are chosen as the validation cases . Comparisons of the mean flow field between the field measurements and the predicted results show good agreement. In the simulation of the wind flow over Askervein Hill , the numerical model predicts the three dimensional flow separation in the downslope of the hill including the blockage effect due to neighboring hills . Such a flow behavior has not been simulated by the theoretical predictions. Therefore, the present model may offer the most accurate prediction of flow behavior in the leeside of the hill among the existing theoretical and numerical predictions.

The characteristics of turbulent boundary layers over hilly terrain depend strongly on the hill slope and upstream condition, especially inflow turbulence. Numerical simulations are carried out to investigate the neutrally stratified turbulent boundary layer over two-dimensional hills. Two kinds of hill shape, a steep one with stable separation and a low one without stable separation, two kinds of inflow condition, laminar turbulent, are considered. An auxiliary simulation, based on the local differential quadrature method and recycling technique, is performed to simulate the inflow turbulence be imposed at inlet boundary of the turbulent inflow, which preserves very well in the computational domain. A large separation bubble is established on the leeside of the steep hill with laminar inflow, while reattachment point moves upstream under turbulent inflow condition. There is stable separation on the side of low hill with laminar inflow, whilw not turbulent inflow. Besides increase of turbulence intensity, inflow can efficiently enhance the speedup around hills. So in practice, it is unreasonable to study wind flow over hilly terrain without considering inflow turbulence.

An experimental investigation on the wind flow over smooth bell-shaped two-dimensional hills with hill slopes (the ratio of height to half width) of 0.3 and 0.5 is performed in an atmospheric boundary-layer wind tunnel. Two categories of the models are used in the present investigation; six two-dimensional single-hills, and four continuous double-hills. The measurements of the flow field and surface static-pressure distribution are carried out over the Reynolds number (based on the hill height) of 1.9 $\times 10^4, 3.3 \times 10^4, and 5.6 \times 10^4$. The velocity profiles and turbulence characteristics are measured by the pitot-tube and X-type hot-wire anemometer, respectively. The undisturbed boundary-layer profile on the bottom surface of the wind tunnel is reasonably consistent with the power-law profile with $\alpha = 7.0 (1/\alpha$ is the power-law exponent) and shows good spanwise uniformities. The profiles of turbulent intensity are found to be consistent along the centerline of the wind tunnel. The measured non-dimensional speed-up profiles at the hill crest show good agreements with the predictions of Jackson and Hunt's linear theory. The flow separation occurs in the hill slope of 0.5, and the oil-ink dot method is used to find the reattachment points in the leeside of the hill. The measured reattachment points are compared with the numerical predictions. Comparisons of the mean velocity profiles and surface pressure distributions between the numerical predictions and the experimental results show good agreements.

Complex terrain like hill, mountain, and escarpment etc. makes complex air flow. This topographic condition will affect not only speed but also turbulence of wind over the complex terrain. In this paper, turbulence intensities are considered to investigate characteristics of wind over cone-type hills. There are five simple hill models with different slope 0.1${\sim}$0.5(tan${\theta}$) for wind tunnel test. It was observed through wind tunnel tests that turbulence intensities of down-slope wind at the end of the 3-Dimensional hills remarkably increased but ones of windward slope wind at the front side of the hills slightly increased. Also, turbulence intensities proportionally increased with slope of the cone-type hills.

최근 지구관측 위성이 급격히 발전함에 따라 사용자의 수가 증가하고 있다. 이에 따라 지구관측위성위원회(Committee on Earth Observation Satellites, CEOS)에서는 분석준비자료(Analysis Ready Data, ARD)라는 개념을 제안하고 분석준비자료의 요구 조건을 CEOS ARD for Land (CARD4L)로 정의하여 사용자 친화적인 위성영상을 제공하기 위해 노력하고 있다. 분석준비자료에는 육상분석에 불필요한 픽셀이 식별된 마스크(Unusable Data Mask, UDM)가 영상과 함께 제공되어야 한다. UDM의 종류는 구름, 구름 그림자, 지형그림자 등이 있다. 지형그림자는 지형기복이 큰 산악지형에서 발생되며 지형그림자가 생긴 지역은 복사조도가 낮기 때문에 분석 결과에 오류를 야기시킨다. 기존 지형그림자 탐지연구는 지형그림자 보정을 위해 지형그림자 픽셀을 탐지하는데 목적을 두었지만, 이것은 지형보정 기법으로 대체 가능하다. 따라서 지형그림자 탐지 목적을 확장할 필요가 있다. 산림과 농업분석을 목적으로 한 차세대중형위성 4호(CAS500-4)의 활용을 위해 본 연구에서는 지형그림자 탐지 범위를 태양의 영향을 적게 받는 지역까지 확장하였다. 본 논문은 남북한을 대상으로 지형그림자 마스크 생성을 위해 지형그림자 탐지 가능성을 분석하는데 목적이 있다. 지형그림자 탐지를 위해서 태양의 위치, 지표면의 경사와 경사방향을 이용한 음영기복 알고리즘을 사용하였다. 한반도를 촬영한 5 m급 공간해상도의 RapidEye 영상과 10 m급 공간해상도의 Sentinel-2 영상들을 대상으로 참값과 비교하며 최적의 음영기복 임계값을 결정하였다. 결정된 임계값을 사용하여 지형 그림자 탐지를 수행하고 결과를 분석하였다. 정성적 결과로는 전체적으로 참값과의 형상이 유사함을 확인하였다. 정량적 실험결과는 F1 score가 대부분 0.8에서 0.94 사이인 것을 확인하였다. 본 연구 결과를 바탕으로 남북한을 대상으로 자동적인 지형그림자 탐지가 잘 수행됨을 확인하였다.

지형상대항법은 측정된 지형고도와 DEM(Digital Elevation Map)의 지형고도의 비교를 통해 위치보정이 이루어지는 시스템이다. 하지만 지형상대항법은 언덕과 같은 반복되는 지형과 같이 측정된 지형고도 프로파일과 후보 지형고도 프로파일이 유사할 때 다른 지형으로 오보정을 유발 할 수 있는 단점을 가지고 있어 항법 성능이 떨어지는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 단점을 극복하기 위해 관심영역 안에 주변 지형의 유사한 정도를 판단하는 영역기반 지형 기울기 험준도 지수를 적용하였고[11], 영역기반 지형 곡률 험준도 지수를 제안하였다. 제안한 지형 험준도 지수의 성능 검증을 위하여 기존의 궤적기반 지형 험준도 지수와 영역기반 지형 험준도 지수를 달착륙선의 지형상대항법에 적용한 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 그 결과, 기존의 궤적기반 지형 험준도 지수를 고려하였을 때 보다 영역기반 지형 험준도 지수를 고려하였을 때 지형상대항법 성능이 개선됨을 확인하였다.

Complex terrain which is rather typical topographic character in Korea would greatly influence the dispersion of air pollutant. In this study, we investigated how the complex terrain in the vicinity of the coal-fired plant affects the air dispersion modeling results by using several US EPA models: SCREEN, CTSCREEN, ISCLT3, ISCST3, and RTDM. Screening analysis was followed by long-term analysis, and the plume movement over the terrain was precisely tracked for selected cases. Screening analysis revealed that the highest concentration of sulfur dioxide occurs at the downwind distance of 1.3 km under the unstable conditions with weak winds. However, this highest level of $SO_2$ could be raised by 4 times even in the presence of a hill of 170 m at a distance of 2 to 3 km. Seasonal and annual average concentrations predicted with the ISCLT3, ISCST3, and RTDM models showed a rapid incrase of $SO_2$ levels in front of the high mountains which are located more than 15 km away fromt the source. The highest concentrations predicted with ISCST3 were significantly higher than those with ISCLT3 and RTDM mainly because ISCST3 chooses simple-terrain model calculations for receptors between stack height and plume height. Although the highest levels under the stable conditions were usually found in the areas beyond 15 km or more, their absolute values were not so high due to enough dispersion effects between the source and the receptors.
