This study presents a numerical model that is capable of simulating the evolution of mining pit in a stream. The numerical model is based on the quasi-steady assumption that the flow is steady with time-dependent morphological change. This hypothesis is valid due to the fact that the stream morphology changes over a long period compared with the time of flow change. Before applications, numerical experiments are carried out with two total load formulas such as Engelund and Hansen's (1967) and Ackers and White's (1973). It is found that the use of Engelund and Hansen's formula reproduces evolution of mining pit best compared with simulated profiles in Parker (2004). Then, the model is applied to two laboratory experiments in the literature. In general, the numerical model simulates properly the evolution of mining pit in laboratory open-channels. However, it is found that the model does not reproduce head-cutting, propagating upstream, and under-estimates the wave of the bed, propagating downstream, after finishing the re-fill of the mining pit.

Exhaust plume effects on longitudinal aerodynamics of missile were investigated by wind tunnel tests using a solid plume simulator and CFD analyses with both the solid plume and air jet plumes. Approximate plume boundary prediction technique was used to produce the outer shape of the solid plumer and chamber conditions and nozzle shapes of the air jet plumes were determined through plume modeling technique to compensate the difference in thermodynamic properties between air and real plume. From comparisons among turbulence models in case of external flow interaction with the air jet plume, Spalart-Allmaras model turned out to give accurate result and to be less grid-dependent. Effects induced by the plume were evaluated through the computations with Spalart-Allmaras turbulence model and the air jet plume to account for various ratios of chamber and ambient pressure and Reynolds number under the flight test condition.

This study was performed to provide the optimal conditions of quantitative analysis for free amino acid in fermented protein foods. The water extractable free amino acid from dairy fermented foods was extracted effectively at $75^{\circ}C$ for 40 min., while it were extracted from fermented soy products at $40^{\circ}C$ for 3 hours. A close results of free amino acid content to those from amino acid analyzer were obtained using OPDA method with lysine standard after deproteinizing with 1% picric acid. 95% ethanol used as a deproteinizing reagent could give a comparable results to those from picric acid treatment in determining free amino acid content using OPDA method. Therefore, ethanol treatment was more recommendable than picric acid treatment which has some troubles in removing excess picric acid through Dowex resin column. The most desirable precipitation method for free amino acid determination using TNBS method was 95% ethanol treatment among the various deproteinizing procedure. The copper salt method was not suitable owing to its lacking reproducibility and pronounced discrepancy in determining free amino acid.

This paper examined the accuracy of the national population projections for the Republic of Korea produced from the 1980s to the early 2000s. Specifically, this study assessed the forecast accuracy of the Total Fertility Rate and life expectancy at birth as well as total and age-group populations. Overall, the data indicated no significant improvement in forecasting total populations. The largest forecast errors were for the young and the elderly, while projections of the working age population were comparatively accurate. The past population projections consistently over-estimated TFR but under-estimated life expectancy at birth. This study also showed that forecast errors in fertility were substantially larger than those in mortality, indicating that behaviorally determined factors are difficult to forecast.

전통적인 방법에 의한 PER는 단순히 그 지표의 일반적인 높고 낮음에 따라 소위 '저평가 종목'이라는 이름으로 투자자들에게 추천되고 있다. 그러나 이런 방법은 개별기업의 구체적 내용을 정확하고 종합적으로 고려하지 못하고 있다. 본 연구는 전통적인 방법으로 사용되는 PER지표의 문제점을 개선코자 배당평가 모형으로부터 도출한 PER지표의 구성요소들을 독립변수로 활용 회귀분석을 했다. 그리고 이를 근거로 이론 지표를 만든 후, 그 이론 지표를 투자의사결정에 적용하였을 때의 유효성을 검증했다. PER지표를 구성하는 독립변수는 Kisor & Whitbeck(1963), Malkiel & Cragg(1970), A. Damodaran(1996)에 의해 연구된 것을 원용, PER지표의 구성요소들로 기업의 배당성향, 이익 성장을, 그리고 위험변수로서의 베타계수를 선정했다. 투자성과는 포트폴리오 투자가 일반적인 현실을 감안해 가치가중수익률을 사용한 포트폴리오의 투자성과를 측정했고, 표본은 국내 거래소 시장에 1991년부터 2001년까지 계속 상장된 금융업종을 제외한 전종목을 대상으로 했다. 실증분석에 사용된 기간은 1997년부터 2001년까지 5년 동안의 자료이며, 투자성과를 검증하기 위한 검증모형으로 위험 프리미엄 모형을 사용했다. 먼저 동 분석기간 중 전통적인 방법에 의한 PER효과는 나타나지 않았고, 아울러 기업규모 효과도 찾을 수 없었다. 그러나 회귀분석을 통해 구해진 이론 지표를 활용할 경우, 이론 지표에 비해 시장 지표가 과소 평가된 그룹이 과대 평가된 그룹과 비교할 때 투자성과가 더 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 또한 이론 지표를 통해 PER수준이 낮아짐에 따라 투자성과가 더 높아지는 PER효과도 발견됐다. 이와 같이 이론 지표에 의해 나타나는 PER효과는 기업규모 효과와는 독립적인 것으로 보인다. 외환위기 이후 우리시장에 나타난 차별화 장세 속에 아직도 PER효과나 기업규모 효과와 같은 시장이례 현상이 존재하는지는 관심의 대상이 됐다고 본다. 본 연구에 의하면 기업규모 효과와는 별개의 PER효과가 여전히 존재하며, 다만 이 PER 효과는 전통적 의미의 일반적으로 낮은 PER종목이 초과수익률을 내는 것이 아니라, 기업규모가 크더라도 그 기업의 개별특성을 고려했을 때 이와 비교해 상대적으로 PER가 낮은 종목에 투자하면 초과수익을 낼 수 있음을 의미한다.

The goal of this paper is to develop freeway Origin-Destination (OD) demand estimation model using VDS and AVI data. The formulation of methodology proposed in this paper includes traffic flow technique to be able to remove the bi-level problem and optimal solution algorithm using a kalman filter algorithm. The proposed dynamic OD estimation model use ilk and off-ramp volumes collected from VDS and partial OD collected from AVI data to raise the accuracy of dynamic OD estimation. The proposed model is evaluated by using the real-time data of SOHAEAN freeway, South Korea. The result of the proposed dynamic OD estimation model based on VDS and AVI data is better than that of based on VDS data. The more AVI systems are equipped at on and off-ramp, the more excellent result of estimation accuracy is expected.

In this paper, impervious area ratios for 11 land cover types of Seoul city were estimated and corresponding CNs were calculated. And linear regression equations were derived to predict impervious area ratios based on five major urban land cover types including the residential, industrial, transportation, commercial, and commercial-residential mixed areas. From the comparative analysis of impervious area ratios for the US SCS CNs and the CNs derived in this study for Seoul city, it is revealed that residential areas show the biggest difference followed by industrial and commercial ones. And in turn, these increased impervious area ratios resulted in Increased CNs for Seoul city including increases by 13 for residential, 12 for industrial and 5 for commercial areas. Therefore, it is suggested that applying the US SCS CNs to Korean urbanized areas may underestimate the flood runoff potential.

In this study, two-dimensional physical experiment was carried out to examine the applicability of the three formulas(Takahashi and Shimosako, 1994; Tabet-Aoul and Lambert, 2003; Li, 2007), which were proposed to calculate the wave forces acting on perforated caisson breakwaters. In order to quantitatively compare the measured with the estimated values based on the wave formulas, the refined index of agreement and the coefficient of determination were calculated, by which the degree of agreement was evaluated. Among the three wave formulas, DUT formula (Li, 2007) showed the smallest deviation from the measured forces, whereas Takahashi formula (Takahashi and Shimosako, 1994) showed the largest deviation. Meanwhile, comparison of the magnitude of the measured wave forces with those from the three formulas revealed that DUT formula slightly underestimate, while the others overestimate the measured forces.

First, The flow into and out of unemployment has been increasing considerably too since the late 1997. Moreover, about half of job changes involve career changes associated with industrial and occupational changes which workers work for. Workers who switch industries and occupations significantly suffer greater wage losses than observed similar workers who find new jobs in their pre-turnover industry or occupation. These findings imply that labor mobility is more likely to cause losses in accumulated skill of workers. Second, this study compared the wage return to past training when a worker remains with an employer with the wage return to past training when a worker moves to a new employer. Surprisingly, training provided by previous employers has significantly positive wage effect. These findings that the skill acquired by employer- provided training is transferable across some firms. Third, this study finds that the likelihood of sectoral mobility decreases with training received in the current industry. It gives an evidence of the industry- specific training. Based on these findings, this paper suggest the way of dividing the costs of benefits of training among employers within their sector to prevent under-investment in training.

The current AASHTO LRFD and Eurocode 3 specifications have been found to underestimate the flexural strength of longitudinally reinforced plate girders. This is because the web-flange interaction is not considered appropriately when a web is reinforced. The buckling strength of compression flange increases due to the improved rotational restraint to the compression flange. Also, the compression flange and the longitudinal stiffener could constrain the web rotation, so that a certain area of the web reaches yield strength. In this study, a model for evaluating the flexural strength is proposed for plate girders reinforced with one line of longitudinal stiffeners, considering the increase of the buckling strength of the compression flange and the actual stress distribution of the web. The flexural strengths of the conventional steel(SM490) and the high-strength steel(HSB800) plate girders were evaluated from the nonlinear analysis and the applicability of the proposed model was analyzed.
