TerraSAR-X 자료를 이용하여 고해상 X-밴드 SAR 시스템을 이용한 조간대 적용 가능성을 시험하였다 연구대상지역은 강화도 남단과 영종도를 잇는 조간대이며, 단일편파자료와 이중편파자료를 이용하였다. 연구내용은 다음과 같은 세 가지로 분류된다. 첫째, X-밴드 영상에서의 연안의 레이더 반사도 특성 연구 및 waterline 추출 정밀도를 평가하였다. 연안지역의 wateline은 HH 편광자료의 레이더 반사도 특성을 통하여 추출하였을 때 가장 신뢰도가 높았으며, TerraSAR-X 시스템의 짧은 파장과 높은 제도정밀도로 인하여 정밀한 지리좌표로의 변환이 가능하였다 연구지역의 조간대 지형 경사도는 평균적으로 수평방향으로 60m당 20cm의 고도변화를 가지므로, TerraSAR-X HH 편광자료를 이용한 waterline 추출은 정밀한 조간대 DEM 추출로 응용될 수 있다. 둘째, 이중편파자료의 편파특성을 이용한 조간대 염생식물의 산란특성 관측하였다. 조간대에서 수륙의 경계부에서 잘 관측되는 칠면초와 같은 염생식물은 해수면변화에 따른 조간대의 육지화를 모니터링 하는데 좋은 표적이 된다. TerraSAR-X 이중편파자료의 산란특성을 이용한 염생식물 관측결과는 2007년에 현장에서 취득된 실측자료와 비교하여 3dB 이내의 정밀도로 일치하였다 셋째, 단일편파 자료의 레이더 간섭기법을 이용한 조간대 DEM 작성 시도하였다. 조간대 내에서 육지화가 진행된 지역은 표면에 염생식물이 발달하였음에도 불구하고 높은 간섭긴밀도를 나타내었다. 레이더 간섭기법을 통한 DEM의 제작은 일반적인 조간대에서는 적용이 제한적이며, TanDEN-X의 적용이 필요하다.

인공함양 특성평가를 위한 동위원소기술을 적용하기 위한 연구지역으로 영남내륙권의 고령군과 달성군의 경계에 위치한 낙동강변의 강변여과수 개발지역을 선정하였으며, 동위원소기술적용을 위하여 연구지역내에 위치한 강변여과수 개발을 위한 양수정과 주변공들 및 지표수들에 대한 시료채취를 수행하였다. 관측공 중 한 공에 대하여는 다중패커시스템 (Multi-packer system)을 활용하여 심도별 변화를 살펴보았다. 연구지역내 물시료들에 대한 현재까지의 산소와 수소 동위원소 및 삼중수소 함량 분석결과는 다중패커설치공 및 일반 관측공과 지표수들간에 서로 중첩되어 구분이 어렵다. 스트론튬 동위원소비는 양수정 및 그 인접공의 시료들과 강변에서 인접한 공의 시료들간에 차이는 있으나 명확하지는 않다. 질소동위원소 분석결과를 살펴보면 전반적으로 화학비료로나 토양내의 유기물로부터 유래한 것으로 해석할 수 있다. 이처럼 현재까지의 기초분석 결과는 자연수 시료들에 적용된 다양한 동위원소값들이 서로 유사한 값들을 보여서 동위원소 특성을 지하수 유동특성이나 함양특성을 해석하기 위한 추적자로 이용하는데 어려움이 있을 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 특정한 시기의 강우사건에 대해 강수, 낙동강물, 양수정 및 일련의 주변공과 다중패커시스템이 설치된 공의 심도별 구간 등에 대해 현재보다 보다 집중적이고 체계적인 시료채취가 시도되어지거나 방사성동위원소를 이용한 추적자 시험이 병행되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.

It is very important to understand the electromagnetic characteristics of underground media in GPR (Ground Penetrating Radar) survey. Depending on the electrical characteristics of the underground medium, the energy of the electromagnetic wave becomes relatively small, and reflection from the interface may become difficult. In this study, electrical characteristics of sandy soils under various (loose and dense) conditions were analyzed. As a result, In dry sand is the dielectric constant increased as the relative density increased, and the dielectric constant and electrical conductivity increased as the moisture content of the sand increased.

Two-element plate concept is incorporated into the buckling problem in order to simplify the nonlinear distribution of stress through the thickness of plate. Finite element formulations and programs based upon the Reissner functional and the modified Reissner functional using two-element plate concept are developed for buckling analysis of plates under axial compression. The two programs have been applied to obtain the linear elastic buckling behavior of axially compressed flat plates. Excellent agreement of linear elastic-solution results with exact or approximate solutions of other authors for the same boundary conditions proves the validity of the finite element method using two-element plate theory.

보의 주요한 기능은 수위 및 유량을 조절이며, 수심을 확보하거나 하상 경사를 조절하기 위하여 설치된다. 보의 설치는 평균 흐름뿐만 아니라 강한 난류 흐름을 생성한다. 보의 실용적인 측면에도 불구하고, 이러한 흐름의 교란은 보의 상류뿐만 아니라 하류에 하상 변화를 초래한다. 이는 종종 하천의 안정뿐만 아니라 보 자체의 안전에도 영향을 미친다. 보 하류의 국부 세굴은 보를 지나는 3차원 흐름 특성을 가지는 복잡한 조직구조에서 기인한다. 특히, 이러한 흐름은 보에서 발생하는 큰 박리 흐름과 이어서 나타나는 재순환 영역 및 강한 하강류로 특징지을 수 있다. 보 하류 흐름에 관한 많은 실험 및 수치모의 연구가 수행되어왔다. 그러나 실험은 보 또는 하상과 같은 벽 경계면과 수면 근처의 세밀한 흐름 특성을 파악하기 어렵다. 또한, 기존의 RANS (Reynolds averaged navier-stokes) 모형은 조직구조와 같은 3차원 흐름 특성을 파악하기에 적합하지 않다. 본 연구에서는 큰 와 수치모의 (large eddy simulation)을 이용하여 세굴공이 발달한 경우와 그렇지 않은 경우의 보 하류의 흐름 특성을 분석하였다. 보에 의해 발생한 재순환 흐름은 세굴공이 발달하면서 그 영역이 확장되며, 재순환 흐름의 하강류의 세기는 약해지는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 세굴공이 발달하면서 최대 세굴심의 위치는 재순환 흐름의 하단 끝 부분과 일치하는 것으로 나타났다.

In this paper, acoustic transmission characteristics are theoretically considered on a cylindrical cavity system. The cylindrical cavity system is a simplified model of the acoustic cavity of King Seongdeok Divine Bell and it consists of a main cavity, a gap and an auxiliary cavity, Under a point sound source in the main cavity, acoustic frequency response property is determined and acoustic modes are analysed. The results are compared with those by the boundary element analysis using SYSNOISE. Using the proposed theoretical method, the effect of the auxiliary cavity and the gap on the resonance frequency and sound transmission characteristics is identified. Finally the best combination of the auxiliary cavity and gap is determined for the maximum transmission of the source frequency.

Ultrasound imaging uses sound waves of frequencies to cause physical actions such as reflection, absorption, refraction, and transmission at the edge between different tissues. Improvement is needed because there is a lot of noise due to the characteristics of the data generated from the ultrasound equipment, and it is difficult to grasp the shape of the tissue to be actually observed because the edge is vague. The edge enhancement method is used as a method to solve the case where the edge surface looks clumped due to a decrease in image quality. In this paper, as a method to strengthen the interface, the quality improvement was confirmed by strengthening the interface, which is the high-frequency part, in each image using an unsharpening mask and high boost. The mask filtering used for each image was evaluated by measuring PSNR and SNR. Abdominal, head, heart, liver, kidney, breast, and fetal images were obtained from Philips epiq5g and affiniti70g and Alpinion E-cube 15 ultrasound equipment. The program used to implement the algorithm was implemented with MATLAB R2022a of MathWorks. The unsharpening and high-boost mask array size was set to 3*3, and the laplacian filter, a spatial filter used to create outline-enhanced images, was applied equally to both masks. ImageJ program was used for quantitative evaluation of image quality. As a result of applying the mask filter to various ultrasound images, the subjective image quality showed that the overall contour lines of the image were clearly visible when unsharpening and high-boost mask were applied to the original image. When comparing the quantitative image quality, the image quality of the image to which the unsharpening mask and the high boost mask were applied was evaluated higher than that of the original image. In the portal vein, head, gallbladder, and kidney images, the SNR, PSNR, RMSE and MAE of the image to which the high-boost mask was applied were measured to be high. Conversely, for images of the heart, breast, and fetus, SNR, PSNR, RMSE and MAE values were measured as images with the unsharpening mask applied. It is thought that using the optimal mask according to the image will help to improve the image quality, and the contour information was provided to improve the image quality.

Distinct Element Method(DEM) has a great advantage to model the discontinuous behaviour of jointed rock masses such as rotation, sliding, and separation of rock blocks. Geometrical data of joints by a field monitoring is not enough to model the jointed rock mass though the results of DE analysis for the jointed rock mass is most sensitive to the distributional properties of joints. Also, it is important to use a properly joint law in evaluating the stability of a jointed rock mass because the joint is considered as the contact between blocks in DEM. In this study, a stochastic modelling technique is developed and the dilatant rock joint is numerically modelled in order to consider th geometrical and mechanical properties of joints in DE analysis. The stochastic modelling technique provides a assemblage of rock blocks by reproducing the joint distribution from insufficient joint data. Numerical Modelling of joint dilatancy in a edge-edge contact of DEM enable to consider not only mechanical properties but also various boundary conditions of joint. Preprocess Procedure for a stochastic DE model is composed of a statistical process of raw data of joints, a joint generation, and a block boundary generation. This stochastic DE model is used to analyze the effect of deviations of geometrical joint parameters on .the behaviour of jointed rock masses. This modelling method may be one tool for the consistency of DE analysis because it keeps the objectivity of the numerical model. In the joint constitutive law with a dilatancy, the normal and shear behaviour of a joint are fully coupled due to dilatation. It is easy to quantify the input Parameters used in the joint law from laboratory tests. The boundary effect on the behaviour of a joint is verified from shear tests under CNL and CNS using the numerical model of a single joint. The numerical model developed is applied to jointed rock masses to evaluate the effect of joint dilation on tunnel stability.

Since the 1990s, political geographers have focused on the study of the process of border construction. They have shifted from the old morphological and functional approaches to boundary that have focused on the types and functions of boundaries. Recent scholarship on border studies understand boundaries and the border regions as entities with overlapping and competing relationships not as manifestation of territoriality. There has been the emphasis on the multidimensional actors and the historical and cultural legacies inherent in the border region as well. Based on these recent discussions, this study examines how the border region has been constructed by various actors and strategies in Dandong China, the border city between North Korea and China. Several sanctions including UN Security Council have been resolved and implemented in accordance with North Korea's nuclear and missile development, which is a relevant example to examine the "border as relationships" in which strategies of various actors are competing. In addition, this paper has a significance as a case study on the construction process of border and the characteristics of its materiality, which is a way to overcome the limitation of discourse-oriented critical geopolitical research.

In Oriental medicine, the status of a tongue is the important indicator to diagnose the condition of one's health like the physiological and the clinicopathological changes of internal organs in a body. A tongue diagnosis is not only convenient but also non-invasive, and therefore widely used in Oriental medicine. However, the tongue diagnosis is affected by examination circumstances like a light source, patient's posture, and doctor's condition a lot. To develop an automatic tongue diagnosis system for an objective and standardized diagnosis, segmenting a tongue region from a facial image captured and classifying tongue coating are inevitable but difficult since the colors of a tongue, lips, and skin in a mouth are similar. The proposed method includes preprocessing, over-segmenting, detecting the edge with a local minimum over a shading area from the structure of a tongue, correcting local minima or detecting the edge with the greatest color difference, selecting one edge to correspond to a tongue shape, and smoothing edges, where preprocessing consists of down-sampling to reduce computation time, histogram equalization, and edge enhancement, which produces the region of a segmented tongue. Finally, the systematic procedure separated only a tongue region from a face image with a tongue, which was obtained from a digital tongue diagnosis system. Oriental medical doctors' evaluation for the results illustrated that the segmented region excluding a non-tongue region provides important information for the accurate diagnosis. The proposed method can be used for an objective and standardized diagnosis and for an u-Healthcare system.
