Chogye basin, which is surrounded by country rock, has a closed-basin form. In such a basin, incident seismic energy can form multiply reflected waves, thus causing energy concentration to occur at this closed-basin area. Microtremor measurement survey was performed at the Chogye basin, which is located in Chogye-myeon and Jeokjungmyeon, Hapcheon-gun, Gyeongsangnam-do, Republic of Korea. Microtremor data were transformed into the frequency domain, and then the horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratios (HVSR) were calculated. Fundamental resonance frequencies were estimated from the HVSR results for every observation point. Using the empirical relationship between site period and thickness for sediment sites in Korea known from the previous study, the distribution of sediment thickness of the Chogye basin was estimated from the fundamental resonance frequencies. Being compared with the mountainous rim with steep slope, the measurement points inside the basin have low values of the fundamental resonance frequency with the minimum of 1.03 Hz, which corresponds to the thickness of sedimentary layer with the maximum depth of about 100 m. A three-dimensional basin model was constructed for bedrock topography of the Chogye basin by an interpolation of basin depths estimated at each measurement site.

This paper presents a combination of linear Fresnel lenses optimized for ${\times}25$ solar concentration. The combined lens consists of $5{\times}5$ linear Fresnel lenses. Each Fresnel lens is of $10{\times}10$ mm and optimized to tilt the incoming light onto a solar cell of the same size. All of the optimized Fresnel segments have the same pattern height of 35 ${\mu}m$, draft angle of $4^{\circ}$, and edge groove round of 1 ${\mu}m$ but with different facet angles varying from $14.1^{\circ}$ to $31.2^{\circ}$. The solar concentrating efficiency of the combination is shown to be over 80% and more robust than a conventional single ${\times}25$ circular Fresnel lens in terms of pointing misalignment and manufacturing errors. A sensitivity analysis finds that the edge groove round should be kept as small as machining allows since the concentrating efficiency drops ~5% per 1 ${\mu}m$ increase of the edge groove.

In this paper, the design of multilayer radome within, the insertion loss, －0.3 dB in X-band with PSO was carried out based on two cases. The first is that, deciding material constant of skin and core, each layer thickness of c-sandwich radome with PSO is found and the second is that, deciding material constant and thickness of the skins of both sides, the material constant and thickness of three layers between skins of both sides using PSO is decided. The performance of the designed radome almost agreed with the required performance. It was showed that the radome design applying PSO algorithm is easy and fast and the optimum radome is also designed in combination of the various parameters of radome. From these results, the radome having various performance can be designed except the tedious calculation and also be applied to various radome structure.

Recently, the possibility of abnormal waves of which height is greater than design wave height have been increased due to the climate change, and therefore it has been urgent to secure the stability for harbor structures. As a countermeasure for improving the stability of conventional caisson breakwaters, a method has been proposed in which adjacent caissons are interlocked with each other to consecutively resist the abnormal wave forces. In order to reflect this research trend, the reduction effect of the maximum wave force resulted from introducing a long caisson has been presented in the revision to the design criteria for ports and fishing harbors and commentary. However, no method has been proposed to evaluate the stability of interlocking caisson breakwater. In this study, we consider the effect of the phase difference of the oblique incidence of the wave based on the linear wave theory and apply the Goda pressure formula for considering design wave pressure distribution in the vertical direction. Sliding stability assessment formula of an interlocking caisson breakwater is proposed for regular, irregular, and multi-directional irregular wave conditions.

Recent eruptive activity at Kīlauea Volcano started on at the end of April in 2018 showed rapid ground deflation between May and June in 2018. On summit area Halema'uma'u lava lake continued to drop at high speed and Kīlauea's summit continued to deflate. GPS receivers and electronic tiltmeters detected the surface deformation greater than 2 meters. We explored the time-series surface deformation at Kīlauea Volcano, focusing on the early stage of eruptive activity, using multi-temporal COSMO-SkyMed SAR imagery. The observed maximum deformation in line-of-sight (LOS) direction was about -1.5 meter, and it indicates approximately -1.9 meter in subsiding direction by applying incidence angle. The results showed that summit began to deflate just after the event started and most of deformation occurred between early May and the end of June. Moreover, we confirmed that summit's deflation rarely happened since July 2018, which means volcanic activity entered a stable stage. The best-fit magma source model based on time-series surface deformation demonstrated that magma chambers were lying at depths between 2-3 km, and it showed a deepening trend in time. Along with the change of source depth, the center of each magma model moved toward the southwest according to the time. These results have a potential risk of including bias coming from single track observation. Therefore, to complement the initial results, we need to generate precise magma source model based on three-dimensional measurements in further research.

'역상고성'은 '신법산서'에 수록되어 있는 티코브라헤의 역법체계와 그 밖의 천문 내용들을 중국인 천문학자들에 의하여 확실하게 정리를 하였지만 '역상고성'에 따른 추보는 천상과 불일치를 보게 되었다. 藪內淸(야부우치 키요시) 저(1969), 유경로 역(1985)에 의하면 이러한 불일치는 옹정 8년 6월 초 1일의 일식이었는데 예보의 오류를 정정한다는 것을 중국 천문학자들이 감당하기 어려웠다. 퀘글러(Ignatius Kögler, 戴進賢, 1680~1746)와 페레이라(Andreas Pereira, 서무덕(徐懋德), 1690-1743) 등의 선교사 천문학자들이 칙명을 받아 종사하게 되고, 이들이 중심이 되어 '역상고성'보다 더 진보된 서양천문 역법에 기초를 둔 역서가 편찬되게 되었다. '신법산서'와 '역상고성'은 모델에서는 평원(平圓)을 사용하지만 '역상고성후편'에서는 타원(楕圓) 모델을 사용하게 된다. 건륭 7년(1742년)에 10권이 완성되어 '역상고성후편'이라 명하였다. 타원모델을 채택하였지만 지동설에 대한 내용은 전혀 기술되어 있지 않다. 아마도 태양이나 달의 운동을 추보하는데 지구를 중심으로 해야 하기에 이에 대한 언급을 필요치 않았을 수도 있다. '역상고성후편' 은 태양과 달의 운행, 일식과 월식에 대해서만 다루고 있다.그러나 '역상고성'에서는 청몽기차나 지반경차를 티코브라헤의 표 값을 그대로 사용하였고, 이 값들이 관측과 관련이 되어 있음을 설명하려는 무리를 두고 있다. 너무 정확하게 값들이 관측 값들로부터 유도되어 의심이 갈 정도이다. 카시니(Giovanni Domenico Cassini, 喝西尼, 1625~1712)는 자신의 동료 리셰와 함께 파리와 프랑스령 기아나 카이엔에서 충의 위치에 있는 화성과 부근 별의 고도를 관측하여 충의 위치에 있는 화성의 시차를 측정하여 최초로 태양과 지구 사이의 거리를 어림하고, 태양의 지반 경차를 현재와 값과 거의 비슷하게 얻었다. '역상고성후편'에서는 이 내용을 상세하게 다루고 있다. 또한 대기에서 입사각과 굴절각 사이에 Snell의 법칙이 성립하는데 이를 이용하여 모호하게 알았던 청몽기차를 대기의 굴절을 이용하여 현재의 값과 비슷한 값을 얻어 사용할 수 있게 되었다. 이는 모든 천체의 위치를 관측하는데 있어서 매우 정확한 값들을 얻을 수 있게 되고 이에 따라 황도-적도 경사각도 정확하게 얻어진다. '역상고성후편'은 옹정원년을 역원으로 하고 있다. 태양의 운행에 있어서 케플러의 타원 궤도를 이용하게 된다. '신법산서'와 '역상고성'에서는 평균근점이각 M을 모델에서 보여 줄 수 있지만 타원 궤도에서는 이 각이 면적각으로 주어지고, 원 대신 타원을 다루기에 쉽지 않다. 현재는 케플러 방정식을 풀어 가감차를 구하게 되는데 이를 기하학적으로 풀이하는 차적구적법을 소개하고 있다. 이와 함께 면적을 이용하여 타원계각과 타원차각을 구하는 차각구각법도 소개한다. 타원계각과 타원차각을 모두 고려하였기에 현재의 태양의 운동을 기술하는 타원모델과 완벽하게 같다. 다만 사용하는 상수가 아주 조금 다를 분이다. 태양의 경도를 추보하는 방법도 동지점을 기준으로 하고 현재의 방법과 동일하다. 달의 운행도 타원 궤도를 사용한다. '역상고성후편'의 내용은 우리나라의 전해져서 1860년 남병길이 쓴 '시헌기요(時憲紀要)'에는 태양, 달, 일·월식, 오행성의 운동, 항성의 위치, 시간 등을 추보하는데 필요한 내용들이 매뉴얼화 되어 기록되어 있고, 1862년 남병철이 쓴 '추보속해(推步續解)'에도 같은 내용을 담고 있다.

To understand the variation of macro benthos community according to the installation of structure and topographic placement in the shellfish farm on tidal flat, the practical example of the tidal shellfish growing area at Namsung-ri Goheung was observed. The results of the research for the field observation were summarized as follows. (1) The ground gradient of the shellfish farm was very flat below about $1^{\circ}$. The shellfish farm ground took the shape of $\sqcup$ from the shoreline to the place of 150 m seawards, and the shape of $\sqcap$ from there to the low tide line. During ebb tide, the $\sqcup$ shape ground stored the sea water, and the $\sqcap$ shape ground was supposed to act as the effect factor to leak slowly or to prevent the outflow. (2) The oyster shell bag or the type of riprap wall as the boundary in the shellfish farm was classified into five types. The air exposure time and flooding time were 181 and 434 minutes, respectively. (3) In the numerical experiment, the deep-sea water wave coming in the study area had 0.5 m of maximum wave height to show the very stable conditions and the wave direction pattern of S-direction was dominant at Naro great ridge, and SE, SSW and S-direction were distributed strongly around the shellfish farm. (4) By the grain size analysis, the sediment around tidal flat consisted of gravel 0.00~5.81(average 1.70)%, sand 14.15~18.39(average 13.23)%, silt 27.59~47.15(average 30.84)% and clay 35.79~55.73(average 36.19)%, and the sediment type was divided into (g)M(lightly gravelly mud), sM(sandy mud) and gM(gravelly mud) by Folk's diagram. (5) The macro benthos community survey conducted in this site in January, 2010 showed that 1 species of Mollusca, 8 species of Polychaeta and 2 species of Crustacea appeared, and 11 species occupying over 1% of total abundance were dominant.
