The occurrence rate of the earthquake more than magnitude 5 has been increased since 1990 and the damage of the Odaesan earthquake, 2007 was serious. Due to that, one may say that Korea is not any more safe for the earthquake. Therefore, it is necessary to prepare strategies for possible damage due to strong earthquakes in future. This study is to focus to develop the retrofitting system for the cut and cuver tunnels built without earthquake type load scenario, so that it can provide the safety of existing urban subway system against earthquakes.

The effectiveness of NOx emission reductions from power plants to alleviate persistent ozone nonattainment in the esterm Unites States was investigated with a focus on the Northeast Corridor, centered on New York City. The 1995 ozone episode along with the 2007 base case emission scenario was used with the Variable-Grid Urban Airshed Model(UAM-V) to determine ozone concentrations. Several scenarios based on EPA's proposal issued on October 10, 1997 were examined. Although it is widely recognized that the eastern United States includes a large Nox-sensitive region(e.g., Sillman, 1999), the study revealed that reducing NOx emissions from power plants beyond 500 miles (800km) was not effective for reducing ozone exceedances in the region. It was also found that NOx emissions from power plants play an important role in local ozone exceedances.

Present condition of the Youngsan River pollution is serious. Concentrations of organic materials and nutrients are high and algal bloom takes place frequently. The pollution is mainly caused by domestic wastewater input from urban areas like Kwangju and Naju City. In this study, 6 times of water quality surveys were done for mainstream and tributaries. Delivery ratios of each tributaries are calculated with the water quality and flow data. With Arc/View GIS, sub-basin are divided and pollution loads are estimated. These data are used for water quality modeling. River quality improvement effects are analysed with 5 scenarios including process upgrade of present WWTPs and construction of new WWTPs. These scenarios are applied for the Youngsan River based on the 7Q10 and Q275. And total wastewater treatment cost in the basin is analysed for each scenario.

Firesafety design engineerings have been mainly derived from complicated rearrangement of descriptive specifications in codes or regulations through a great number of lessons from fire disasters. In this paper, the author refers to some recent developments in the field of building fire protection. At first, the author expresses his viewpoints concerning performance-based design codes, which have been popular throughout the world as a symbol of freedom from restricted usage of building materials and components prescrived in regulation or bylaws, in spite of some conflicts between objects-oriented design method and industrial mass production. Secondly, the author introduces several innovative fire protection methods adopted for large or void spaces in building complex. Finally, the author forcasts a next development of firesafety science and technology, aimed at securing personal safety in hyperscale urban areas.

In this study, the fire resistance performance of the concrete-filled steel tube (CFT) columns and thin steel-plate composite (TSC) beams installed at a 20-story office building were designed using a performance-based structural fire design. Because of the lack of any specific provisions in the building code and guidelines for structural engineers about the performance-based approach, the only prescriptive approach has been selected for designing fire-resistant structures in Korea. To evaluate the fire resistance performance of the CFT columns and TSC beams, finite element analysis verified by the experimental results studied by several researchers was conducted with ABAQUS. From the fire scenario, the temperature distributions of the CFT columns and TSC beams were found via finite element analysis and the behaviors of the CFT columns and TSC beams were investigated in the structural field based on the temperature distribution.

급격한 도시화는 도시 하천에 크게 세 가지 문제점을 야기하고 있다. 첫 번째 문제는 불투수지역의 증가에 따른 강우의 토양 침투량 감소이다. 토양 침투량 감소는 도시하천의 물순환에 심각한 왜곡을 일으키게 된다. 두 번째 문제는 도시적 토지이용에 따른 비점오염물질의 증가이며, 세 번째 문제는 구도심에서의 합류식 하수관거 월류수이다. 비점오염물질의 증가 및 합류식 하수관거 월류수는 물순환 왜곡과 맞물려서 도시하천 수질오염을 가중시키게 된다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 세 가지 문제점에 대한 해결방안을 제시하고자 부산 온천천 유역을 대상으로 EPA SWMM을 구성하였으며, 미국 뉴욕시에서 실제로 시행중인 사업을 벤치마킹하여 생태저류지 설치 사업을 계획하였다. 사업 시나리오별로 물순환 개선효과와 비점오염 및 합류식 하수관거 월류수의 저감량이 요구되는 예산과 함께 분석되었다.

Along with the urbanization, the risk of urban flooding due to climate change is increasing. Flood regulation, one of the ecosystem services, is implemented in the different level of function of flood risk mitigation by the type of ecosystem such as forests, arable land, wetlands etc. Land use changes due to development pressures have become an important factor in increasing the vulnerability by flash flood. This study has conducted evaluating the urban flood regulation service using InVEST UFRM(Urban Flood Risk Model). As a result of the simulation, the potential water retention by ecosystem type in the event of a flash flood according to RCP 4.5(10 year frequency) scenario was 1,569,611 tons in urbanized/dried areas, 907,706 tons in agricultural areas, 1,496,105 tons in forested areas, 831,705 tons in grasslands, 1,021,742 tons in wetlands, and 206,709 tons in bare areas, the water bodies was estimated to be 38,087 tons. In the case of more severe 100-year rainfall, 1,808,376 tons in urbanized/dried areas, 1,172,505 tons in agricultural areas, 2,076,019 tons in forests, 1,021,742 tons in grasslands, 47,603 tons in wetlands, 238,363 tons in bare lands, and 52,985 tons in water bodies. The potential economic damage from flood runoff(100 years frequency) is 122,512,524 thousand won in residential areas, 512,382,410 thousand won in commercial areas, 50,414,646 thousand won in industrial areas, 2,927,508 thousand won in Infrastructure(road), 8,907 thousand won in agriculture, Total of assuming a runoff of 50 mm(100 year frequency) was estimated at 688,245,997 thousand won. In a conclusion. these results provided an overview of ecosystem functions and services in terms of flood control, and indirectly demonstrated the possibility of using the model as a tool for policy decision-making. Nevertheless, in future research, related issues such as application of models according to various spatial scales, verification of difference in result values due to differences in spatial resolution, improvement of CN(Curved Number) suitable for the research site conditions based on actual data, and development of flood damage factors suitable for domestic condition for the calculation of economic loss.

경기도는 도시형, 도농복합형, 농촌형으로 도시형태가 구분되어, 대중교통 서비스 제공도 도시 형태에 따라 다르지만, 대중교통 환승요금제는 단순한 형태의 수평적 형평성을 기준으로 동일한 환승유효시간을 적용하여 운영되고 있다. 이로 인해 대중교통 서비스 공급형태가 열악한 비도심 지역은 버스의 운행간격이 30분 이상으로 환승할인혜택을 받지 못하는 경우가 발생한다. 기회의 형평성 측면에서 기본적으로 불리하게 적용되어 요금할인 혜택을 받지 못하는 것이다. 이에 본 연구는 경기도의 환승요금제의 비형평적 사례를 교통카드를 활용하여 환승비 혜택 현황을 분석하고, 환승비혜택율 지표를 개발하고, 지표를 활용하여 시나리오 분석을 수행하였다. 분석결과 대중교통 서비스 공급 확대가 아닌 수직적 형평성 기준의 제도 개선을 통해 환승혜택의 기회의 균등이 가능하다는 것을 증명하였다. 수직적 형평성 기준을 적용하여 지역별 맞춤형 제도를 운영하는 환승요금제도의 정책 대안을 제시하였다.

Many previous tall building fires demonstrate that despite code compliant construction fires often spread vertically and burn over multiple floors at the same time. The collapses of the WTC complex buildings in 9/11 as well as other partial collapses like the ones of the Windsor Tower in Madrid and of the Technical University of Delft building posed new questions on the stability of tall buildings in fire. These accidents have shown that local or global collapse is possible in multi-floor fires. In most of the previous work involving multi-floor fires all floors were assumed to be heated simultaneously although in reality fires travel from one floor to another. This paper extends previous research by focusing on the collapse mechanisms of tall buildings in fire and performs a parametric study using various travelling rates. The results of the study demonstrate that vertically travelling fires have beneficial impact in terms of the global structural response of tall buildings in comparison to simultaneous fires. Contrary to the beneficial effect of the travelling fires in terms of the global structural response, it was noticed that higher tensile forces were also present in the floors compared to simultaneous multi-floor case. Designers are therefore advised to consider simultaneous multi-floor fire as an upper bound scenario. However, a scenario where a travelling fire is used is also suggested to be examined, as the tensile capacity of connections may be underestimated.
