K-water institute is a calibration and test institute accredited by international standard calibration center for water-level meters. Due to the absence of on-site calibration system and procedure for Float Water Level Meter, the calibration was performed only in the standard calibration laboratory. In this study, mobile calibration system and procedure were developed to calibrate Float Water Level Meter on site using scale bar and camera. It is possible to obtain reliable water-level data and achieve consistent data management.

Drying Stream Assessment Tool and Water Flow Tracking (DrySAT-WFT)은 하천건천화 평가 및 예측을 위해 개발된 물수지 기반의 분포형 수문모형이다. 그러나 물수지 모형의 특성상 토양층 사이를 이동하는 수직적인 물의 거동은 파악하기 용이하나, 하천 및 지표를 따라 이동하는 물의 수평적인 거동 추적에는 한계가 있다. 본 연구에서는 DrySAT-WFT 모형에 댐·보 방류량을 고려한 하도 갈수량 추적 알고리즘을 적용하여 유출 모의 성능을 개선하고, 개선된 유출 모형을 금강 유역(9,915.5 ㎢)에 적용하여 건천화 원인 추적 및 평가를 수행하였다. 하천건천화 원인 추적을 위한 영향요소로 1976년부터 2015년까지 구축한 산림높이, 도로망, 지하수 이용량, 토지이용, 토심, 기상 자료를 활용하였다. 건천화 영향요소를 적용하기 전 기상자료만을 활용해 모의한 유출결과를 기준 시나리오로 설정하고 댐·보 지점을 대상으로 검보정을 진행하였다. 이후 각 건천화 영향요소를 적용한 유출 시나리오별 유량의 감소 비율과 건천화 기여 비율을 산정하여 영향평가를 수행하였다.

In this paper, the effects of the positions of the potential and current probes on the measurements of the ground resistance and potential gradients with the fall-of-potential method are described and the testing techniques to minimize the measuring errors are proposed. The fall-of-potential method is theoretically based on the potential and current measuring principle and the measuring error is primarily caused by the position and ground resistance of the measuring probes. The ground resistance is calculated by applying the 61.8% and rule in the fall-of-potential method, and then the potential probe is located on the straight line between the grounding electrode to be measured and the current probe. However, sometimes the grounding electrode to be measured and the measuring probes in on-site test might not be arranged on the straight line with adequate distance because there are building, road block, construction and other establishments. Provided that the grounding electrode to be measured and the measuring probes ar out of position on the straight line or have inadequate distance, the measurement of the ground resistance classically falls into an error and the measured ground resistance should be corrected. Measurements were focused on the grounding electrode system made by the ground rods of 2.4m long. It was found that the suitable separation between the grounding electrode to be measured and the current probe is more than 5 times of the length of the grounding electrode to be measured.

The authors reconstruct a mooring type underwater positioning system to measure the movement of bag-net in a set-net by long base line mode with four transponders attached on the bag-net in latitudinal and a transponder fixed on the sea bed. To confirm the practical use of the system, the field experiments were carried out at the Jaran Bay, Kosung, Kyungnam Prov., on October 6, 2000 (neap tide) and November 28, 2000 (spring tide). And the vertical oscillation of bag-net was observed with three data loggers attached on the bottom of bag-net in longitudinal on November 28, 2000. The longitudinal movement range, the latitudinal one and the vertical one of the bag-net were 3.2 m, 3.4 m and 2.1 m. respectively. At the spring tide, these variations were 7.8 m, 7.8 m and 5.0 m, respectively. The vertical oscillation range about the bottom of the bag-net at near point of the slope net, at the middle part and at far point from the slope net were 3.2 m, 3.7 m and 8.4 m, respectively. The depth of the bottom net was decreased and its vertical oscillation appeared frequently when the current speed was more than 10 cm/s and the current direction was significantly different from the longitudinal axis of the bag-net. The variation of hydrophone coordinates measured by the transponder fixed on the sea bed presents that hydrophones equipped to the frame line of the set-net could be moved within several meters due to the tidal current. The fact indicates that the compensation of hydrophone coordinates is necessary to reduce the measuring errors. The position measuring errors of x, y and z axis of the system measured in the cage of aquaculture were 0.6 m, 0.8 m, and 1.2 m, respectively. And the errors of the transponders those were close to the base lines or placed in the baselines were smaller than those of others.

Linear form of public works such as roads, railways and rivers, generally used as long work crossing administrative districts, can be several hundreds km length and narrow. These linear forms use SCM sheets, which do not include the quadrangle shape, to make a public announcement of topographical drawing in order to get the work approval. the Integrated measurement channel investigation and cadastral act that are established in 2009 apply the ITRF for the composition of design and construction books and coordinates of topographical map in order to get the work approval. However according to the article 5 of additional clause, while the cadastre is maintaining local coordinates, if there is a technical error in the content of the Public Announcement of Topographical Drawing that used the SCM, the question of responsibility of land borders and the efficacy or not of the announcement is raised as an administrative measure. After analysing the causes and enforcing coordinate conversion and correction taking into account linear form work's features, the result was reflected in the existing SCM. As a conclusion, the present study proposes the improvement of the procedures of the Public Announcement of Topographical Drawing.

An objective of this study is to evaluate the structural performance of the weak axis SRC column-RC beam joints by experiments. Although one of common joint types is the connection with standard hooks, it has been required to examine its safety and to settle problems of the joint among practical engineers. Specimen types are classified into two categories, namely the type of standard hook and the type of shape improvement. The first one is consisted of three specimens which are reference type, development length modification type, and development length supplement type. Three specimens for shape improvement were made with variations on the arrangement of longitudinal reinforcements and the development length. Test results based on cyclic loadings were discussed with load-deflection curves, maximum strengths, strength degradations beyond the maximum. It was found that the standard hook types showed premature failures and consequent strength degradations due to splitting of joint concrete. However, satisfactory performance was obtained with the shape improvement type with wing-plate welding. No premature failures and strength degradations were detected with the specimens.

Recently, a method that applies laser scanning (LS) that acquires vegetation information such as the vegetation habitat area and the size of vegetation in a point cloud format has been proposed. When LS is used to investigate the physical shape of vegetation, it has the advantage of more accurate and rapid information acquisition. However, to examine uncertainties that may arise during measurement or post-processing, the process of adjusting the data by the actual data is necessary. Therefore, in this study, the physical structure of stems, branches, and leaves of woody vegetation in an artificially formed river channel was manually investigated. The obtained results then compared with the information acquired using the three-dimensional terrestrial laser scanning (3D TLS) method, which repeatedly scanned the target vegetation in various directions to obtain relevant information with improved precision. The analysis demonstrated a negligible difference between the measurements for the diameters of vegetation and the length of stems; however, in the case of branch length measurement, a relatively more significant difference was observed. It is because the implementation of point cloud information limits the precise differentiation between branches and leaves in the canopy area.

New calibration method for the near-field scanning (NFS) system is presented. The proposed calibration method consisted of a new near-field antenna (NFP) and newly devised patterns as circular patch patterns (CPPs) and meander patterns (MPs). The proposed patterns were used for improving spatial resolutions and simplifying a calibration procedure of the NFP compared to the conventional method defined in the IEC61967-3 and 6. Also, the effect of the length of NFPs on attenuation characteristics was investigated with length of 8mm and 30mm. For them, we designed and fabricated CPPs of diameter (D) = 20, 40, 60, and 100mm and MPs of various widths and spaces. We found the reverse relations between spatial resolutions and heights of measuring points by using simplified calibration procedure. The testing result shows that the spatial resolution of $120{\mu}m$ at height of $200{\mu}m$ was verified without complex correlation algorithms under 8GHz. For manufacturing cost all patterns and the NFP were realized with low-cost fabrication using PCB (FR-4) not by a conventional LTCC process. For verification of chip-level EMC from the results, near-field scanning system (NFSS) having step resolution of Sub-micron scale was produced and by using the proposed NFSS and proposed NFP measurement of chip shows accurately the shape of the resolution of $200{\mu}m$ patterns for securing a high level of chip-level EMC verification.

For orthodontic tooth movement, optimal orthodontic force should be maintained without periodontal breakdown and alveolar bone should be remodeled physiologically Therefore, To obtain proper occlusion through tooth movement within alveolar bone, we should know the biomechanics of teeth and supporting 4issues. The present study was performed to observe histologic changes of periodontal tissue immediately after application of orthodontic force and during the retention period in growing young adult dogs. In this study, experimental group contained between mandibular left canine and 1st molar and control group contained contralateral teeth of same animal. The .018'x.022' stainless steel closed coil spring(Dentaurum Co.) was ligated on the experimental teeth at initial 200gm-force from mandibular canine to 1st molar The animals(4 to 6 months aged young adult dogs) were sacrificed on 0, 14, 28 days after the finish of appliance activation, and then tissue samples were divided into hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining section, ground section, alkaline phosphatase(ALP) staining section, and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase(TRAP) staining section. Thereafter, the preparations were examined under light microscopy The following results were obtained: 1. Immediately after the finish of appliance activation, the periodontal space was increased in tension side, but decreased in pressure side compared to that of control. The hyalinized zone was also observed in the periodontium. 2. After the 14-day retention, peridontal space was decreased in tension side and slightly increased in pressure side compared to that of immediately after the finish of appliance activation. The hyalinized zone was repaired and a few osteoblasts showing slightly new bone formation were seen. Osteoblasts were scarcely observed along the alveolar bone. 3. Aftter the 28-day retention, the periodontal fibers are normally repaired. A lot of TRAP(+) osteoclasts md increased alveolar bone resorption were observed in pressure side, and AP(+) osteoblast and increased new bone formation were observed in tension side.

In this paper, we have designed TDL(True-time Delay Line) for eliminating beam-squint occurring in active phased array antenna with large electrical size operated in wide bandwidth, and have tested its electrical performance. The proposed TDL device is composed of 4-bit microstrip delay line structure and MMIC amplifier for compensation of the delay-line loss. The measured results of gain and phase versus delay state satisfy the electrical requirements, also P1dB output power and noise figure meet the requirement. To verify the performance of fabricated TDL, we have simulated the beam patterns of wide-band active phased array antenna using the measured results and have certified the beam pattern compensation performance. As a result of simulated beam pattern compensation with respect to the 675.8 mm size antenna which is operated in X-band, 800 MHz bandwidth, we have reduced the beam squint error of ${\pm}1^{\circ}$ with ${\pm}0.1^{\circ}$. So this TDL module is able to be applied to active phase array antenna system.
