Based on the dynamic tests of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) short columns confined by the hoop reinforcement, the dynamic failure mechanism and the mechanical parameters related to the constitutive relation of confined recycled aggregate concrete (CRAC) were investigated thoroughly. The fracturing sections were relatively flat and smooth at higher strain rates rather than those at a quasi-static strain rate. With the increasing stirrup volume ratio, the crack mode is transited from splitting crack to slipping crack constrained with large transverse confinement. The compressive peak stress, peak strain, and ultimate strain increase with the increase of stirrup volume ratio, as well as the increasing strain rate. The dynamic confining increase factors of the compressive peak stress, peak strain, and ultimate strain increase by about 33%, 39%, and 103% when the volume ratio of hoop reinforcement is increased from 0 to 2%, but decrease by about 3.7%, 4.2%, and 9.1% when the stirrup spacing is increased from 20mm to 60mm, respectively. This sentence is rephrased as follows: When the stirrup volume ratios are up to 0.675%, and 2%, the contributions of the hoop confinement effect to the dynamic confining increase factors of the compressive peak strain and the compressive peak stress are greater than those of the strain rate effect, respectively. The dynamic confining increase factor (DCIF) models of the compressive peak stress, peak strain, and ultimate strain of CRAC are proposed in the paper. Through the confinement of the hoop reinforcement, the ductility of RAC, which is generally slightly lower than that of NAC, is significantly improved.

Inertial Navigation System(INS) provides short-term accurate navigation solution but its error grows with time due to integration characteristics. Meanwhile, Global Positioning System(GPS) provides long-term stable solution but it has poor error characteristics in high dynamic region. So for its synergistic relationship, an integrated INS/GPS systems has been widely used as an advanced navigation system. Generally, two kinds of integration method are used. One is loosely coupled mode which uses GPS-derived position and velocity as measurements in an integrated Kalman filter. The other is tightly coupled one which uses pseudorange and pseudorange rate as Kalman filter measurements. In this paper the system error models and observation models for two kinds of integrated systems are derived, respectively, and their performance are compared through Monte-Carlo simulations.

Spiral arms greatly affect gas flows and star formation in disk galaxies. We use local 3D simulations of vertically-stratified, self-gravitating, gaseous disks under a stellar spiral potential to study the effects of spiral arms on galactic star formation as well as formation of gaseous spurs/feathers. We adopt the TIGRESS framework to handle radiative heating and cooling, star formation, and ensuing supernova (SN) feedback. We find that more than 90% of star formation takes place inside spiral arms. The global star formation rate (SFR) in models with spiral arms is enhanced by less than a factor of 2 compared to the no-arm counterpart. This supports the picture that spiral arms do not trigger star formation but rather redistribute star-forming regions. Correlated SN feedback produces interarm feathers in both magnetized and unmagnetized models. These feathers live short, have parallel magnetic fields along their length, and are bounded by SN feedback in the lateral direction, in contrast to instability-induced feathers formed in our previous isothermal simulations.

The aim of this study is to analyze the effects of oil prices on economic growth and exchange rate in Saudi Arabia during the period 1980-2020. For this purpose, the linear and nonlinear ARDL models are estimated. The linear ARDL model shows that the oil price and economic growth are cointegrated. Moreover, the two variables have a significant positive association in the long run. However, the oil price has no significant impact on the exchange rate. When estimating the nonlinear ARDL model, it has been shown that oil price is only cointegrated with economic growth but not with the exchange rate. The estimation of nonlinear effects using the nonlinear ARDL model shows that economic growth is affected by both positive and negative oil shocks in the long run. However, the impact of positive shocks is higher than those of negative shocks. Moreover, results show that the short-run effects of positive and negative oil shocks are not statistically significant. Regarding the exchange rate, our results show that the effects of positive and negative oil shocks are not statistically significant. Consequently, this study concludes that the oil price has an asymmetric effect on economic growth in Saudi Arabia, but not on the exchange rate.

Recently, interests to remove nitrogen in the nitritation process have increased because of its economical advantages, since it could be a short-cut process to save both oxygen for nitrification and carbon for denitrification compared to a typical nitrification. However, the kinetics related with the nitritation process has not yet been fully understood. Furthermore, many useful models which have been successfully used for wastewater treatment processes cannot be used to estimate effluent nitrite concentration for evaluating performance of the nitritation process, since the process rate equations and population of microorganisms for nitrogen removal in these models have been set up only for the condition of full nitrification. Therefore, the present study was conducted to estimate an effluent nitrite concentration in the nitritation process with a concept of enzymatic inhibition kinetics based on long-term laboratory experiments. Using a nonlinear least squares regression method, kinetic parameters were accurately determined. By setting up a process rate equation along with a mass balance equation of the nitrite-oxidizing step, an effluent nitrite concentration in the nitritation process was then successfully estimated.

The switching and the retention characteristics with the injection conditions(pulse height and pulse width) were investigated in the nonvolatile MNOS memories with thin oxide layer of $23{\AA}$ thick. The shift of flatband voltage was measured using the fast ramp C-V method and experimental results were analized using the previously developed models. It was shown that the experimental results were described quit well by the trap-assisted and modified Fowler-Nordheim tunneling models for the voltage pulse of $15V{\sim}19V,\;24V{\sim}25V$, respectively. However, the direct tunneling model was agreement with experimental values in all range of pulse height. As increasing the initial shift of the flatband voltage, the decay rate was increased. But for the same initial shift of the flatband voltage, the decay rate was smaller for low and long pulse than for high and short one.

시판 샐러드제품의 구입부터 가정까지의 이동 및 소비직전까지 적정하지 않은 온도관리를 예상하여 단기간의 온도 abuse 상황을 설정하고 미생물적 유통기한을 도출하였다. 보다 효율적인 유통기한 설정을 위해 예측미생물학의 3단계 모델인 PMP 7.0을 활용하여 그 활용가능성을 조사하였다. 부적절한 온도에서의 abuse 시간이 증가할수록 미생물은 빠르게 증식하여 샐러드 제품의 유통기한 시점으로 판단되는 log 7 CFU/mL에 도달하는 시간이 짧아졌다. 온도가 증가할수록 0.020에서 1.083까지 grow rate도 증가했으며, 이 모델의 적합도를 나타내는 $r^2$의 값은 전 실험구에서 0.9 이상을 나타내었다. PMP 7.0으로 예측된 미생물의 증식양상은 온도에 따라 0.017~0.235 CFU/mL/hr로 나타났으며, 모든 구에서 0.994~1.000까지 높은 수준의 $r^2$을 나타내었다. 또 PMP를 활용하여 도출한 유통기한의 경우도 온도가 증가함에 따라 감소하였다. 실측된 값을 바탕으로 한 샐러드 제품의 유통기한은 유통매장에 도착하기까지 48시간 소요될 것으로 예상할 경우 유통기한은 109.1~63.0시간까지로 추정되며 PMP로 도출된 유통기한(24.1~626.5시간)에 비해 짧게 나타났다. 이는 온도 abuse에 의한 영향 및 fail safe에 해당하는 결과로 안전성 측면에서는 유리하나 관리적 측면에서 과도한 기준의 설정 등을 통해 관리비용의 증가 등의 단점이 발생할 수 있는 것으로 판단된다. 즉, 예측미생물학을 활용하여, 유통기한 설정 및 품질관리를 위한 초기 미생물 기준 설정시 특정 식품에 적용하는 것은 효율적인 시도가 될 것이나, 이를 전반적인 기준으로 설정하는 것은, 통계적, 실제적 오류 발생이 가능할 것으로 오히려 관련 효율을 저해할 수 있을 것이다.

Jeju Island, the heaviest raining area in Korea, is a volcanic Island located at the southernmost of Korea, but most streams are of the dry due to its hydrological/geological characteristics different from those of inland areas. Therefore, there are limitations in applying the results from the mainland to the studies on stream run-off characteristics analysis and water resource analysis of Jeju Island. In this study, the SWAT(soil & water assessment tool) model is used for the Hwabuk stream watershed located east of the downtown to calculate the long-term stream run-off rate, and WMS(watershed modeling system) and HEC-HMS(hydrologic modeling system) models are used to figure out the stream run-off characteristics due to short-term heavy rainfall. As the result of SWAT modelling for the long-term rainfall-runoff model for Hwabuk stream watershed in 2008, 5.66% of the average precipitation of the entire basin was run off, with 3.47% in 2009, 8.12% in 2010, and root mean square error(RMSE) and determination coefficient($R^2$) was 496.9 and 0.87, respectively, with model efficient(ME) of 0.72. From the results of WMS and HEC-HMS models which are short-term rainfall-runoff models, unless there was a preceding rainfall, the runoff occurred only for rainfall of 40mm or greater, and the run-off duration averaged 10~14 hours.

1990년 시장평균환율제도에서 1997년 외환위기 이후 자유변동환율제도까지 환율제도의 변경과 더불어 자본시장 자율화로 인하여 환율의 변동성이 증대되고 있다. 이와 같은 환율 변동성의 증대는 우리나라와 같은 소규모 개방경제와 수출중심의 경제기반 하에서 주요관심사가 아닐 수 없다. 이에 본 연구는 자유변동환율제도를 설명하기 위해 이론적으로 고안된 통화론적 접근방법을 적용하여 우리나라의 대미 환율 결정요인을 실증적으로 분석하였다. 이들 모형에 근거하여 설명변수로는 통화량과 소득, 이지율, 자본수지, 엔화환율, 교역조건 등을 선택하였다. 또한 분석기간을 1990년부터 2009 년으로 하여 외환위기 전 후 균형관계의 차이를 비교분석할수 있도록 하였다. 공적분 검정과 벡터오차수정모형을 통한 실증분석 결과, 우리나라에서도 통화적 접근방법은 자유변동환율제도 기간인 외환위기 이후기간에 더 설명력 있는 것으로 나타났다. 외환위기 이후기간에는 통화량, 소득, 단기이자율로 구성된 가격신축적 Bilson 모형이 가장 우세하였으며, 환율과 장기적 관계에 았는 변수들이 환율의 단기변동에도 영향을 미치는 것으로 드러났다.
