본 연구에서는 위험도를 나타내는 침수예상도와 취약도를 나타내는 재해취약지수를 동시에 고려한 통합 리스크 지도 작성 방법을 제안하였다. 이 방법은 한 장의 지도에 다양하고 구체적인 정보를 제공함으로서, 대피계획을 동반한 실제 상황에서 활용 가능한 새로운 재해지도를 작성하였다. 재해지도에 인문·사회·경제적인 요소를 고려하기 위해, 연구유역을 노출성, 취약성, 대응성, 복구성 인자로 구분하였다. 그리고 각각의 인자들에 대한 7가지 지표를 GIS 도구를 이용하여 추출하였다. 각 지표별로 추출된 자료를 1~5등급으로 등급화 하였으며, 각 등급화된 자료를 재해취약지수로 선정하여 통합 리스크 분석 및 인자별 리스크 지도 작성에 활용하였다. 침수예상도와 재해취약지수 인자를 중첩한 인자별 리스크 지도는 인구, 자산, 건물 등을 포함한 지역별 상황을 반영하여 대피계획 수립에 활용하였다. 또한, 서로 다른 단위와 성질을 가진 재해취약지수 인자들의 표준화를 통해 하나의 취약도로 환산하고, 위험도를 동시에 고려한 통합 리스크 분석 방안도 제안하였다. 이는 재해지도 작성시 침수 위험도와 사회·인문·경제적인 요인을 동시에 고려한 구체적이고 다양한 정보를 제공할 수 있어 재해에 대한 대비·대응·복구 계획 수립에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Integrated stream naturalness based on abiotic and biotic factors were developed. Abiotic factors considered in this study were types of land use in the riparian area, river bank and high water bed streamside, revetment, bed substrate and artificial construction of streamside. Biotic factors included types of vegetation, assemblages of fish, macroinvertebrate, bird and mammal(Otter) in streams. The presence/absence of legal species and biological assessment index were also weighted as important parameters in this study. Scoring criteria selected for each matrix was five rating system; 1=poor, 2=moderate, 3=fair, 4=good, 5=excellent. Numerical ratings for the matrix were then summed. This resulted in a minimum score of 13 if all matrix at a site were poor, and a maximum score of 65 if all matrix were excellent. Five grade system from poor(I) to excellent condition(V) was employed. To verify its validity in natural environment, the evaluation system was applied to the Gapchun stream which is a test bed selected. Our result showed that stream naturalness of each reach was clearly distinguished by biotic and abiotic characteristics. Determination of correlation coefficient between abiotic and biotic factors was also high ($R^2=0.96$, p<0.05). In conclusion, assessment for stream naturalness reflecting abiotic and biotic factors was useful method representing stream integrated.

본 연구에서는 시민들이 하천에서 안전하고 쾌적하게 레크리에이션 활동을 할 수 있도록 종합 수질 정보를 제공하는 하천 레크리에이션 지수 산정 모델을 개발하였다. 하천 레크리에이션 지수 모델은 분변성 대장균 모델과 수질지수 모델을 통합하여 구성하였다. 분변성 대장균 모델에서는 로지스틱 회귀분석을 사용하여 분변성 대장균 등급을 예측하였고, 수질지수 모델에서는 DO, pH, 탁도, 클로로필 a를 퍼지 합성방법을 통해 종합화하여 수질 지수를 산정하였다. 최종 단계에서 분변성 대장균 등급과 수질 지수를 통합하여 하천 레크리에이션 지수를 산정할 수 있도록 모델을 개발하였다. 제안된 모델을 낙동강의 강정고령보 상류 지점에 적용한 결과, 하천 레크리에이션 지수는 개별 수질인자들의 변화를 잘 반영하는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 하천 레크리에이션 지수와 클로로필 a의 상관계수가 -0.85로 나타나 클로로필 a가 하천 레크리에이션 지수에 가장 많은 영향을 미치고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 모델에서 산정한 종합수질지수는 기존 수질 정보 제공 시스템인 실시간 수질지수보다 보수적인 결과를 보였는데, 이는 등급에 따라 현재의 수질 상태가 어떠한 상태에 속하는지를 계산하고 수질 기준의 불확실성을 적절하게 고려하기 때문인 것으로 판단되었다. 나아가서, 분변성 대장균 등급이 낮을 경우 하천 레크리에이션 지수가 분변성 대장균을 고려하지 않고 있는 실시간 수질지수보다 낮은 결과를 제시하는 것으로 나타났다.

In this paper, a new architecture for a cost-effective power conditioning systems (PCS) using a single-sourced asymmetric cascaded H-bridge multilevel inverter (MLI) for photovoltaic (PV) applications is proposed. The asymmetric MLI topology has a reduced number of parts compared to the symmetrical type for the same number of voltage level. However, the modulation index threshold related to the drop in the number of levels of the inverter output is higher than that of the symmetrical MLI. This problem results in a modulation index limitation which is relatively higher than that of the symmetrical MLI. Hence, an extra voltage pre-regulator becomes a necessary component in the PCS under a wide operating bias variation. In addition to pre-stage voltage regulation for the constant MLI dc-links, another auxiliary pre-regulator should provide isolation and voltage balance among the multiple H-bridge cells in the asymmetrical MLI as well as the symmetrical ones. The proposed PCS uses a single-ended DC-DC converter topology with a coupled inductor and charge-pump circuit to satisfy all of the aforementioned requirements. Since the proposed integrated-type voltage pre-regulator circuit uses only a single MOSFET switch and a single magnetic component, the size and cost of the PCS is an optimal trade-off. In addition, the voltage balance between the separate H-bridge cells is automatically maintained by the number of turns in the coupled inductor transformer regardless of the duty cycle, which eliminates the need for an extra voltage regulator for the auxiliary H-bridge in MLIs. The voltage balance is also maintained under the discontinuous conduction mode (DCM). Thus, the PCS is also operational during light load conditions. The proposed architecture can apply the module-integrated converter (MIC) concept to perform distributed MPPT. The proposed architecture is analyzed and verified for a 7-level asymmetric MLI, using simulation results and a hardware implementation.

The Asia-Pacific region is not typically seen as one geographic or socio-economic space. Yet, 58 regional economies occupying the space of 28 million square kilometers from Turkey in the West, Russian Federation in the North, French Polynesia in the East and New Zealand in the South belong to the Economic and Social Commission of Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP). This commission provides a forum for member states that "promotes regional cooperation and collective action, assisting countries in building and sustaining shared economic growth and social equity". In 2013, ESCAP's members adopted the Bangkok Declaration to enhance efforts towards deeper regional economic integration. Yet this document neither proposes a concrete modality or modalities of achieving deeper integration, nor provides a sense of distance of individual countries to a "perceived" integrated Asia-Pacific.This paper aims to comprehensively quantify recent integration efforts of economies in the Asia-Pacific region. We provide an "index of integration effort" based on twelve metrics that measure the relative distance of a given economy to the region as an economic entity. Generally, we find that while the region has trended towards becoming integrated in general, both the level of integration and integration effort are inconsistent among Asia-Pacific economies. We discuss potential applications and extensions of the index in developing our perspective of the region's economic and social dynamics.

International construction projects typically manifest difficult, complex, and varied types of risk exposures; because of this, there is a need for accurate evaluation of risk-integrated performances during the timeframe of project execution. Given the financial crisis currently affecting the world economy recession, risk management has become a more crucial part for the success of international project management. However, the majority of risk management approaches, particularly for overseas projects, are focused primarily on simple forms of checklists, formalization of risk variables affecting project performance for a specific phase, or more complicated computational methods that restricting practical utilization in real-world projects; moreover, these methods lack the conceptual basis to broadly visualize the level of risk over all phases of a project. This study suggests an efficient, yet simple risk-integrated total index to successfully assess the risk levels of overseas construction projects. To this end, this paper first investigates the life cycles and key processes of decision-making for a given project and then derives formulas to represent the total risk index (TRI) along the key decision-making processes. In addition, the study examines the relationships between TRI and performance levels based on the analysis of 126 real-world project samples. Validations using the proposed TRI showed a high correlation to project performance, signifying the usefulness of the proposed approach for construction firms when investigating the level of risks and key areas for management focus.

This paper aims to investigate the impact of corporate governance on the quality of integrated reporting. Corporate governance includes internal (board size, board independence, and board diversity) and external (audit quality and enforcement) governance factors. This paper develops an index to capture the quality of integrated reporting by employing the completeness of information required by the International Integrated Reporting Council (IIRC). For an international sample, the paper manually collects 160 integrated reports along with internal and external governance factors and employs multivariate analyses to examine the association between these governance factors and the quality of integrated reporting. The empirical results suggest that firms with a larger board of directors, a larger proportion of female members on board, and located in countries with enforcement for integrated reporting requirements have a higher quality of integrated reporting. Our conclusions still hold after accounting for several conditions, including the industry-fixed and year-fixed effects. Together, these results suggest that both internal and external governance factors are important determinants for the quality of integrating reporting. These results have several theoretical and practical implications as they fulfill the absence of relevant studies on addressing the impact of internal and external corporate governance factors on the quality of integrated reporting.
