An irregular cell-based numerical model was developed to analyze underground space flooding. In this model, the flow characteristics in underground space were computed by link-node system. Also, the model can simulate the underground flood flow related to the influence of stairs and wall-structures. Empirical discharge formula were introduced to analyze weir-type flow for shopping mall, and channel-type flow for subway railroad respectively. The simulated results matched in reasonable range compared with the observed depth. The dual-drainage inundation analysis model and the underground space flood analysis model were integrated using visual basic application of ArcGIS system. The developed model can help the decision support system of flood control authority for redesigning and constructing flood prevention structures and making the potential inundation zone, and establishing flood-mitigation measures.

In order to monitor the impact locations in smart structures, multipoint ultrasonic sensors are to be employed. In this study, a multiplexing demodulator with wide dynamic range was proposed to detect the impact locations using FBG sensors, and a stabilization controlling system was also developed for the maintenance of maximum sensitivity of sensors. Two FBG sensors were attached on the bottom side of the aluminum beam specimen and low velocity impact tests were performed to detect the one-dimensional impact locations. As a result, multiplexed in-line FBG sensors could detect the moment of impact precisely, and found the impact locations with the average location error below 0.58mm.

There are many methods to reinforce the cylindrical structure for light weight design like skin-stringer and semi-monocoque. Isogrid is one of the reinforced structures to improve buckling load. Isogrid has many advantages for complex load case, internal pressure and concentrated load.In this paper, compressive buckling test and non-linear FE analysis of the isogrid panel are described. Diameter of panel is 2.4m and thickness of plate is 11.43mm. The angle which the panel accomplish is about 70 degrees and, its height is about 660mm. Local buckling, global buckling and variation of stiffness after local buckling were observed during buckling test of the panel. MSC/MARC is used for non-linear FE analysis. When analysis, initial imperfection of panel which occurred during plastic forming is considered. The results of analysis for buckling mode and buckling load have good agreements with test.

Composites are widely used for aircraft, satellite and other structures due to its good mechanical and thermal characteristics such as low coefficient of thermal expansion(CTE), heat-resistance, high specific stiffness and specific strength. In order to use composites under condition of high temperature, however, material properties of composites at high temperatures must be measured and verified. In this paper, material properties of T700/Epoxy were measured through tension tests of composite specimens with an embedded FBG sensor in the thermal chamber at the temperatures of RT, $100^{\circ}$, $200^{\circ}$, $300^{\circ}$, $300^{\circ}$. Through the pre-test of an embedded optical fiber, we confirmed the embedding effects of an optical fiber on material properties of the composites. Two kinds of specimens of which stacking sequences are [0/｛0｝/0]$_{T}$. and [$90_2$/｛0｝/$90_2$]. were fabricated. From the experimental results, material property changes of composites were successfully shown according to temperatures and we confirmed that fiber Bragg grating sensor is very appropriate to strain measurement of composites under high temperature.

This paper presents a numerical study of the wave loads acting on offshore structures using a Cartesian-grid-based flow simulation method. Finite volume discretization with a volume-of-fluid (VOF) method is adopted to solve two-phase Navier-Stokes equations. Among the many variations of the VOF method, the CICSAM scheme is applied. The body boundary conditions are satisfied using a porosity function, and wave generation is carried out by using transient (wave or damping) zone approaches. In order to validate the present numerical method, three different basic offshore structures, including a sphere, Pinkster barge, and Wigley model, are numerically investigated. First, diffraction and radiation problems are solved using the present numerical method. The wave exciting and drift forces from the diffraction problems are compared with potential-based solutions. The added mass and wave damping forces from the radiation problems are also compared with the potential results. Next, the wave-induced motion responses of the structures are calculated and compared with the existing experimental data. The comparison results are fairly good, showing the validity of the present numerical method.

For the safety management of tunnel, effective measurements should be continuously carried out. Most of sensors currently being applied for tunnels measure only the local status, thus many of them are needed to monitor an entire tunnel. For the railway tunnel where trains of same conditions are regularly operated, dynamic responses of tunnel structure to train operations can be a good index to estimate the deformation of tunnel structure in wide area. Meanwhile, the electromagnetic interference caused by overhead centenary in railway tunnel obstructs the use of electric-based sensors. In this study a brand new accelerometer using FBG optical fiber sensors is developed to solve these problems. Sensitivity and capacity of the accelerometer are enhanced with effective structural design of its components and verified with laboratory tests. A case history where the developed accelerometers were applied to a safety monitoring system of a high-speed train tunnel is presented. The performances of the developed accelerometers are validated from the measured acceleration data.

Fiber optics sensors that have been mainly applied to aerospace areas are now finding applicability in other areas, such as transportation, including railways. Among the sensors, the fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors have led to a steep increase due to their properties of absolute measurement and multiplexing capability. Generally, the FBG sensors adhere to structures and sensing modules using adhesives such as an epoxy. However, the measurement errors that occurred when the FBG sensors were used in a long-term application, where they were exposed to environmental thermal load, required calibration. For this reason, the thermal curing of adhesives needs to be investigated to enhance the reliability of the FBG sensor system. This can be done at room temperature through cyclic thermal load tests using four types of specimens. From the test results, it is confirmed that residual compressive strain occurs to the FBG sensors due to an initial cyclic thermal load. In conclusion, signals of the FBG sensors need to be stabilized for applying them to a long-term SHM.

댐 및 제방 등의 수공구조물 붕괴에 의한 극한홍수 전파를 해석하기 위한 2차원 홍수 해석기법에는 현재까지 다양한 기법들이 개발되어 왔고 다양한 모형들이 상용화 또는 범용화 되고 있다. 그 중 흐름의 전파양상을 정확하게 반영할 수 있는 상류이송기법인 Godunov형태의 유한체적기법은 충격파와 같은 불연속적인 해를 가지는 문제를 정확히 해석할 수 있고, 비구조적 격자 사용의 용이성 등의 장점 때문에 2차원 홍수파 전파 해석에 있어서 최근 십수년간 가장 활발하게 연구되어왔다. 하지만 이러한 기법은 양해법을 근간으로 하는 해석 기법으로써, 계산거리의 간격이나 계산시간의 간격, 격자망의 구성 등 엄격한 제한이 필요하다. 특히 방대한 계산시간을 요구하는 기법의 약점은 홍수예 경보 등을 위한 실시간 모형의 구동에 있어서 큰 제약이 되어 왔다. CPU의 성능이 지속적으로 발전하면서 이러한 문제는 점차 극복되어 왔으나, 발열 등의 문제와 이를 극복하기 위한 멀티코어의 등장으로 인해 단일 코어의 성능개발은 매우 더딘 것이 사실이다. 현재까지 연구되고 개발되어 온 모형들은 특별한 처리 없이는 단일 코어만을 사용하여 계산할 수 밖에 없기 때문에 멀티코어의 장점을 전혀 이용할 수 없다. 이러한 점을 극복하기 위해 프로그램을 병렬화하여 단일 문제에 대해 멀티코어를 사용할 수 있다면 계산시간 단축에 큰 효과를 거둘 수 있을 것이다. 현재까지 IT분야에서 다양한 병렬프로그래밍 기법들이 개발되고 소개되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 병렬프로그래밍 기법중 가장 널리 사용되고 있는 MPI(Message Passing Interface)기법을 적용함으로써 기 개발된 고정확도 유한체적모형을 병렬화 하여 계산시간을 단축하고자 하였다. 개발된 모형을 장애물이 존재하는 실험하도의 댐 붕괴 문제와 2002년 태풍 루사 시 큰 피해를 입은 강릉시 일원의 섬석천 유역에 위치한 장현저수지와 동막저수지의 붕괴사례에 대해 적용하였다. 모형을 코어 개수별로 다양하게 모의함으로써 기존모형과의 결과에 대한 일치성을 확인하였고, 기존 모형 대비 계산시간 단축의 효과를 입증할 수 있었다. 개발된 본 모형을 실시간 홍수범람해석을 위한 시스템으로 구축할 수 있다면, 실시간 홍수예 경보에 있어 주요지점에서의 수위해석 뿐만이 아닌 제내지 범람 예보 분야까지 확대 적용할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors are currently the most prevalent sensors because of their unique advantages such as ease of multiplexing and capability of performing absolute measurements. They are applied to various structures for structural health monitoring (SHM). The signal characteristics of FBG sensors under thermal loading should be investigated to enhance the reliability of these sensors, because they are exposed to certain cyclic thermal loads due to temperature changes resulting from change of seasons, when they are applied to structures for SHM. In this study, tests on specimens are conducted in a thermal chamber with temperature changes from -$20^{\circ}C$ to $60^{\circ}C$ for 300 cycles. For the specimens, two types of base materials and adhesives that are normally used in the manufacture of packaged FBG sensors are selected. From the test results, it is confirmed that the FBG sensors undergo some degree of compressive strain under cyclic thermal load; this can lead to measurement errors. Hence, a pre-calibration is necessary before applying these sensors to structures for long-term SHM.

가능최대홍수량(Probable Maximum Flood, PMF)이란 대규모 수공구조물을 설계하고자 할 때 막대한 경제적 손실 및 인명피해 등을 막기 위해 기준으로 삼는 설계홍수량이며, 통계학적으로는 약 10,000년 빈도에 해당된다. 우리나라의 호우 특성은 방위, 진행방향 및 위에 따른 해석이 매우 복잡하여 강우를 정형화하기 어렵다. Kim and Won(2004)은 이동성 호우의 경우 강우의 깊이-면적-지속기간(Rainfall Depth-Area-Duration)의 분석결과에서 상당한 오차를 야기하는 문제점을 지닌다고 주장하였다. 따라서 오차를 포함한 DAD의 산정결과는 가능최대강수량(Probable Maximum Precipitation, PMP) 및 가능최대홍수량 산정에도 영향을 미치기 때문에 정확도 높은 DAD 분석을 통한 PMF 산정이 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 유역을 선정하고 각 지점의 시계열 강우 자료를 활용하여 공간분포화한 강우자료에 격자기반의 자동 강우장 탐색기법을 이용하여 DAD 분석을 실시하였다. 기존의 PMP 산정방법에서는 한반도 전역에서 발생했던 130 mm이상의 호우사상을 선정한 후에 각 호우의 범위에 있는 우량관측소의 강우자료를 이용하여 PMP를 산정한다. 그렇기 때문에 만약 상대적으로 긴 지속기간의 경우 호우의 범위가 우리나라 전역을 포함할 가능성이 크기 때문에 PMP 산정방법은 복잡하고, 기상이변이 잦지 않는 지역에서 산정된 PMP를 이용하여 PMF를 산정할 경우, 유역의 특성을 반영하지 않았기 때문에 과대산정의 우려가 있다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 먼저 연구대상유역을 선정한 뒤, 유역 내에 발생했던 호우경보와 호우주의보를 기준으로 호우사상을 선정하여 DAD 분석 후 PMP를 산정하였다. 그 후, 강우-유출관계를 파악하여 PMF를 산정하였다.
