In this study, the target ground was selected for the assessment of liquefaction, for which energy-based Arias intensity liquefaction assessment method was applied, The results of evaluation by simplified method using conventional in-situ test were compared. The result of the assessment of liquefaction revealed that the safety factor of the Arias Intensity using the actual records of the Hachinohe and Ofunato earthquake showed generally similar trends with the simplified method, However, the Arias Intensity factor of safety for the artificial earthquake created from the design response spectrum showed some difference from the factors of safety of the simplified method. The shear stress ratio and the occurrence strength of the Arias Intensity are differently calculated between stress and energy, but the resistance stress ratio of the simplified method and the resistance strength of the Arias Intensity use the empirical chart of the results of the standard penetration test for the actual liquefaction areas by the earthquake, which seems the reason for the similar results between Arias Intensity assessment and stress concept simplified method for Hachinohe and Ofunato earthquakes. Therefore, it was found that the energy-based Arias Intensity liquefaction assessment could represent the dynamic changes of the ground caused by seismic characteristics such as acceleration, magnitude, duration and amplitude.

The purpose of this research is to assess the aseismic safety for the large-sized waste landfill site based on the results from liquefaction potential analysis. For successful achievement of research, the simplified liquefaction analysis and detailed liquefaction analysis using data from lab test and seismic response analysis are executed. Based on the simplified liquefaction analysis, the possibility of liquefaction is occurred at only BH-14 with maximum acceleration 0.169 g. Therefore, liquefaction possibility of BH-14 is evaluated by the detailed liquefaction analysis again. The safety factor greater than 1.0 from the result of analysis at BH-14 guarantees safety of liquefaction.

하천에서의 정확한 유량 산정은 하천의 설계 및 운영 유지에 매우 중요한 요소이다. 현재 하천의 유량 생산은 수위-유량관계곡선을 통하여 이루어지고 있다. 수위-유량관계곡선법은 측정된 수위와 유량자료의 관계를 바탕으로 홍수기 때의 유량을 회귀 추정법으로 예측하여 사용하는 방법이다. 비교적 간편하게, 특히 측정이 어려운 홍수기 때의 유량을 예측하여 사용할 수 있다는 장점을 가지고 있지만 수위와 유량만의 관계를 사용하므로 하천의 수리학적 특성을 반영하기 곤란하기 때문에 기본적으로 개선되어야 할 사항이 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 하천유량을 예측하는 새로운 방법론의 하나로 KSCE에 기 게재된 Choo 등(2011)의 방법에 따라, 개수로에서 널리 사용되어 오고 있는 Manning식과 Chezy식을 활용하여 하천의 전체적인 특성을 잘 반영하는 특성조도계수 n과 특성Chezy계수 C를 사용하여 하천의 유량을 예측하였다. 실험실 직선수로에서 측정된 정류 자료와 객관성 있는 해외 하천 유량측정 자료를 사용하여 증명하였고 결정계수 0.8 정도 수준의 높은 정확성을 보여주는 성과를 나타내었다. 따라서 본 연구결과를 통해 하천의 수리학적 특성을 반영하면서도 간단하게 유량을 예측할 수 있는 방법으로 실무에서 간편하게 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

범용토양유실공식(RUSLE)은 연간 토양유실량을 산정하기 위해 제시된 경험식이며, 강우침식인자(R factor)는 유실량을 결정하는 요소 중 강우강도의 특성을 고려하는 주요인자이다. 토지피복, 식생 등에 대한 타 인자의 경우 한정된 실험에 의해 도출된 경험치를 대상지역에 맞게 적용하는데 반해 강우침식인자는 강우강도 기반 강우에너지 산정법을 적용하여 계산과정이 비교적 복잡하고 다양하다. 국내에서도 강우침식인자 산정법이 개발된 바 있으나 현제까지 간편법을 비롯한 다양한 공식들이 적용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 강우침식인자를 산정하는 과정에서 다른 강우 운동에너지식을 적용하거나 연평균 강수량 등을 대체지수로 활용한 간편법 적용시 결과의 결과의 다양성에 대해 분석하고자 하였다. 합리적인 30분 강우강도 산정을 위해 79개 기상청 종관기상관측 지점에 대한 분단위 강우자료(1997~2014)를 수집하고 기존의 국내외 강우운동에너지 식과 대체지수를 적용하여 산정된 결과를 비교 분석하였다. 연구결과 간편법을 사용한 결과가 대부분 지점에 대해 강우에너지식을 사용한 강우침식인자보다 과대산정(지점평균 약 74%)하였으며 다른 강우에너지식 적용에 따른 평균 변동계수가 약 0.12로 나타나 지점간 차이를 보였으나 적용방법에 따른 침식인자의 분포가 다소 다르게 나타남을 확인하였다. 관측자료가 부족한 토양유실량 예측에 있어 강우 침식인자 산정을 위한 최적 방법론 도출이 어려운 만큼 다중모델 결과를 조합하는 방법론 개발이 필요하다고 판단된다.

The seismic base isolation design approach has been reviewed and modified to fit the nonlinear static analysis procedure for determination of the performance point of structures in a simpler way, such an adaptation may be possible for the fact that a structural system under development of damage due to earthquake loading keeps softening to result in period shifting toward longer side. The superiority of the proposed method to the state-of-the-practice approach is that the reasonably accurate performance point can be obtained without constructing the so-called acceleration displacement response spectrum required in application of capacity spectrum method. The validity of the proposed approach was verified by comparing the predicted values to the exact ones presented in the literature.

Purpose : Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the most frequent cause of lower respiratory infections in infants and young children. Early detection allows quarantining of infected inpatients to prevent nosocomial transmission and to choose a treatment. To achieve rapid reporting, to facilitate prompt antiviral therapy, and to avoid unnecessary use of antibiotics, an easy, rapid diagnostic method for RSV is needed. We evaluated a lateral flow immunochromatography (RSV Respi-Strip test) and EIA (Enzyme immuno assay) compared to RT-PCR. Methods : From April 2007 to March 2008, 112 consecutive respiratory specimens (nasopharyngeal aspirates, throat swabs, tracheal aspirates, sputum) from patients who were suffering from the clinical signs and symptoms of respiratory tract infection were enrolled in Busan. A total of 112 patients were tested with RSV Respi-Strip (Corio-BioConcept, Belgium), EIA, and RT-PCR at the same time. Results : Of the 112 specimens tested, the number of children who showed positive results at RT-PCR and Respi-Strip were 45 and 42, respectively. The Respi-Strip rapid antigen test had a sensitivity of 88% and a specificity of 94%. The positive and negative predictive values were 90% and 92%, respectively. The agreement was 83%. Conclusion : In our study, the rapid antigen test had as much sensitivity as any method for detection of RSV. The test has many advantages such as easy performance, simple interpretation, and rapid results. If the rapid antigen test is widely applied in the clinical setting, the may be useful for diagnostic and epidemiological studies of RSV infection.

It is very important to predict the amount of settlement in order to maintain the function of the coastal structure. Finite element analysis methods and real and model experiments are used as methods for this, but this has the disadvantage of requiring a lot of cost and time. Therefore, this study was conducted for the purpose of a simple formula proposal that can easily predict the amount of settlement of the caisson-type quay wall structure. In the research process, after calculating the PSI (Power Spectrum Intensity) of the velocity, the amount of settlement of the structure is calculated by substituting it into the simple formula of the existing gravity breakwater. By comparing and analyzing the amount of settlement of the structure obtained through numerical analysis, it was confirmed that the error between the amount of settlement of the existing simple formula and the amount of settlement of the numerical analysis was large, and it was confirmed that the background could not be considered in the case of the existing simple formula. Therefore, this study proposed a correction factor for the background of the quay wall structure, indicating a simple formula that can obtain the amount of settlement of the caisson-type quay wall structure. Compared to the numerical analysis settlement amount, it was judged that this simple formula had sufficient precision in calculating the caisson-type quay wall settlement amount. In addition, facilities vulnerable to earthquake resistance can be easily extracted in situations where time and cost are insufficient, and it is expected to be used as a screening technique.

In this paper, the critical strains for pavement design were calculated from both Layered Elastic Program (LEP) and Finite Element Method (FEM) and the case studies which give similar critical responses were compared. Although FEM has been realized as a superior model, LEP is more favorable to pavement design due to its simplicity and thus, the technique to calculate the correct critical responses using LEP is significant. This study showed that KENLAYER can possibly estimate the critical responses close to ones obtained from TTIPAVE, which considers nonlinear cross-anisotropic behavior of unbound base materials, by adjusting the stress point locations.
