전기 임피던스 단층촬영법 (EIT, electrical impedance tomography)은 비파괴검사의 일종으로 관심영역 외부에 설치된 전극에서 측정된 전압으로부터 내부의 저항률분포를 얻는 기술이다. 그러나 EIT에서 영상복원은 타고난 비선형성 (non-linearity)과 부정치성 (ill-posedness) 때문에 만족할만한 복원결과를 얻기 어렵다. 일반적으로 신경회로망은 비선형 시스템의 입력 및 출력 관계를 효율적으로 모델링 할 수 있다. 이 논문은 다층 신경회로망을 이용하여 원형인 표적의 위치(중심좌표)와 크기(반지름)를 추정하는 방법을 제안한다. 제안한 방법의 성능을 알아보기 위해, 신경회로망을 학습시키고 다양한 컴퓨터 모의실험을 수행하였고 결과로부터 제안한 방법의 만족할만한 추정성능을 확인할 수 있었다.

Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) has been suffered from the severe ill-posedness which is caused by the inherent low sensitivity of boundary measurements to any changes of internal resistivity values. So, small noise occur unexpected reconstruction image. Generally in EIT system, if measured voltage includes noise, we can't find object location and resistivity values. In this paper, we propose digital filter for measured voltage in EIT. Newton-Raphson is the most..popular algorithm in EIT, but noise cause to blur image. We use Fourier transform (FT) in order to minimize the noise and design the filter. After filtering, result of reconstruction image is improved better than before filtering.

A Natural cavities were found at shallow depth during construction of a huge bridge in Moon-Kyung, Korea. The distribution patterns of cavities in the Moon-Kyung limestone were investigated carefully with a supplementary field job such as a structural geological survey, a geophysical survey, and a rock mechanical test in laboratory or field. A structural geological mapping produced a detail geological map on this area. It suggested that there were three faults in this area, and these faults had an influence on the mechanism of natural cavities. Among many kinds of geophysical surveys, an electrical resistivity prospecting was applied firstly on the specific area that was selected by results from the geological survey. Many evidences for cavities were disclosed from this geophysical data. Therefore, a seismic tomography was tested on the target area, which was focused by results from the electrical resistivity prospecting and was believed to have several large cavities. A distinct element numerical simulation using the UDEC was followed on the target area after completing all of field surveys. Data from field tests were directly dumped or extrapolated to numerical simulations as input data. It was verified from numerical analysis that several natural cavities underneath the foundation of the bridge should be reinforced. Based on the project result, finally, most of foundations for the bridge were re-examined and the cement grouting reinforcement was constructed on several foundations among them.

The boundary estimation problem is used to estimate the shape of organic depend on the phase of the cardiac cycle or interested in the detection of the location and size of anomalies with resistivity values different from the background tissues such as nuclear reactor. And we can use the method to solve the optimal solution such as modified Newton raphson, kalman filter, extended kalman filter, etc. But, this method consumes much time and is sensitive to the initial value and noise in the estimation of the unknown shape. In the paper, we propose that multi-layer neural networks estimate the boundary of the unknown object using Fourier coefficient. This method can be used at the real time estimation and have strong characteristics at the noise and initial value. It uses voltage change; difference the homogeneous voltage to the non-homogeneous voltage, and change of Fourier coefficient change to train multi-layer neural network. After train, we can have real time estimation using this method.

상 경계 추정 문제에서는 초기치에 따라 그 추정성능이 달라질 수 있다. 하지만 실제의 유동 공정에서는 초기치 설정을 위한 기포의 개수와 개략적인 위치 정보를 알 수가 없기 때문에, 초기치 설정 문제는 더욱 중요하다. 따라서 이 논문에서는 상 경계 추정을 위한 초기치 설정을 위해 우선 차이(difference) 복원 방법을 사용하여 미지의 저항률 분포를 추정하고, 중간모드(intermodes) 방법을 사용하여 적응 문턱치를 자동으로 계산하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 기포의 개수와 초기 위치를 결정하였다. 이로써 잡음이 존재하는 경우에도 기포의 상 경계를 잘 추정할 수 있는 방법을 개발하였다. 이에 몇 가지 시나리오를 설정하고 모의실험을 통해 제안한 방법의 상 경계 추정성능을 평가하였다.

전기 임피던스 단층촬영법(electrical impedance tomography, EIT)은 미지의 내부 저항률 분포를 갖는 물체 주위에 특수하게 제작된 전극을 여러 개 배치하고 적절하게 설계된 전류를 주입하여 이에 따른 인가전압을 물체 경계에서 측정한 후 이를 근거로 EIT의 영상복원 알고리즘에서 물체 내부의 미지의 저항률 분포를 재구성하는 기술이다. 전기 임피던스 단층촬영법의 영상복원 과정은 비선형 방정식으로 기술되며, 그 해석적인 해를 구하기가 매우 어려우므로 수치적인 방법으로 근사해를 구한다. 본 논문에서는 EIT 영상복원 방법으로 동시 인자변환 확률적 근사화(simultaneous perturbation stochastic approximation, SPSA) 방법을 제안한다. SPSA 방법을 이용한 EIT 영상복원의 성능을 컴퓨터시뮬레이션을 통해 살펴보고 기존의 mNR 방법에 의해 얻어진 결과와 비교 분석하도록 한다.

전기 임피던스 단층촬영에서는, 각기 다른 주입 전류패턴에 의해 유기된 경계면의 전압 값을 이용하여 다양한 복원 알고리즘에 의해 물체의 내부 저항률(전도율) 분포를 추정한다. 본 논문에서는, 부가적인 사전 정보를 soft 제약조건으로 비용함수에 추가하고, 비용함수의 가중행렬을 지수적으로 가중된 최소자승법에 근거하여 선택하는 수정된 조정 Newton-Raphson(mNR) 법을 제안한다. 32채널에 대한 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션 결과, 제안된 방법은 기존의 조정 mNR 법에 비해 계산부담은 약간 증가하지만 복원성능이 개선됨을 보인다.

In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), various image reconstruction algorithms have been used in order to compute the internal resistivity distribution of the unknown object with its electric potential data at the boundary. Mathematically the EIT image reconstruction algorithm is a nonlinear ill-posed inverse problem. This paper presents a new combined method based on genetic algorithm(GA) and modified Newton-Raphson(mNR) algorithm via two-step approach for the solution of the static EIT inverse problem. In the first step, each mesh is classified into three mesh groups: target, background, and temporary groups. The mNR algorithm can be used to determine the region of group. In the second step, the values of these resistivities are determined using genetic algorithm. Computer simulations with the 32 channels synthetic data show that the spatial resolution of reconstructed images by the proposed scheme is improved compared to that of the mNR algorithm at the expense of increased computational burden.

Land creeping is the imperceptibly slow, steady, downward movement o f slope-forming soil or rock. Because creep-related failures occur frequently on a large scale without notice, they can be hazardous to both property and human life. Korea Forest Service has operated the prevention and response system from land creeping which has been on the rise since 2018. We categorized and proposed three survey steps (e.g., preliminary, regional, detailed) for investigation of creeping susceptibility site with a focus on geophysical mapping of a selected test site, Yongheung-dong, Pohang, Korea. The combination of geophysical (dipole-dipole electrical resistivity tomography and reciprocal seismic refraction technique, well-logging), geotechnical studies (standard penetrating test, laboratory tests), field mapping (tension cracks, uplift, fault), and comprehensive interpretation of their results provided the reliable information of the subsurface structures including the failure surface. To further investigate the subsurface structure including the sliding zone, we performed high-resolution geophysical mapping in addition to the regional survey. High-resolution seismic velocity structures are employed for stability analysis because they provided more simplified layers of weathering rock, soft rock, and hard rock. Curved slip plane of the land creeping is effectively delineated with a shape of downslope sliding and upward pushing at the apex of high resistive bedrock in high-resolution electrical resistivity model with clay-mineral contents taken into account. Proposed survey steps and comprehensive interpretation schemes of the results from geological, geophysical, and geotechnical data should be effective for data sets collected in a similar environment to land-creeping susceptibility area.

During excavation work for the construction of a highway bridge in a limestone area in Korea, several cavities were found, and construction work was stopped temporarily. Cavities under the bridge piers might seriously threaten the safety of the planned bridge, because they could lead to excessive subsidence and differential settlement of the pier foundations. In order to establish a method for reinforcement of the pier foundations, borehole radar reflection and tomography surveys were carried out, to locate cavities under the planned pier locations and to determine their sizes where they exist. Since travel time data from the crosshole radar survey showed anisotropy, we applied an anisotropic tomography inversion algorithm assuming heterogeneous elliptic anisotropy, in order to reconstruct three kinds of tomograms: tomograms of maximum and minimum velocities, and of the direction of the symmetry axis. The distribution of maximum velocity matched core logging results better than that of the minimum velocity. The degree of anisotropy, defined by the normalized difference between maximum and minimum velocities, was helpful in deciding whether an anomalous zone in a tomogram was a cavity or not. By careful examination of borehole radar reflection and tomography images, the spatial distributions of cavities were delineated, and most of them were interpreted as being filled with clay and/or water. All the interpretation results implied that two faults imaged clearly by a DC resistivity survey were among the most important factors controlling the groundwater movement in the survey area, and therefore were closely related to the development of cavities. The method of reinforcement of the pier foundations was based on the interpretation results, and the results were confirmed when construction work was resumed.
