The growing need for energy (oil and gas) has led to offshore resource development. As a reflection of this trend, there have been many advances in the technologies used for the subsea production systems that make offshore resource development possible. As the technologies for subsea production systems continue to grow, a subsea X-mas tree, the core equipment in a subsea production system, is required to have more functions than before. Generally, these complex functions lead to a change in its configuration. Therefore, this paper investigates a change in a subsea X-mas tree system to enhance system understanding, and conducts a leakage path analysis of a subsea X-mas tree system. Utilizing the recent configuration of the subsea X-mas tree, an identification of the leakage path and a quantitative risk analysis for the leakage using an FTA (fault tree analysis) are conducted.

제품 개발을 담당하는 부서에서, 다양한 이유로 핵심인력이 빠져나간다. 이때마다 제품개발 현장에서는 심각한 지식 누수현상이 나타나게 된다. 따라서, 지식 누수 현상을 방지하기 위한 방법은 기업 내부에 존재하는 핵심인력의 노하우를 형식지로 저장해 관리하는 것이다. 제품을 개발을 담당하는 부서에는 수많은 문서들이 존재한다. 특히 품질 관리 문서는 제품개발과 관련된 핵심인력의 노하우가 농축되어있는 지식이다. 그래서 많은 기업에서는 기업내부에서 발생하는 그 지식을 관리하고 재활용하고자, 문서관리를 위한 시스템을 도입, 사용하고 있다. 그러나 설계 지식의 공유를 지원하는 시스템을 갖추었어도, 단순히 설계지식을 저장해놓은 경우가 많아, 개발자는 필요한 자료를 다시 선정해야 하는 문제가 발생한다. 이는 개발자에게 있어서 부담이 되며, 풍부한 지식활용률을 떨어뜨리게 만드는 한 요인이 된다. 본 논문에서는 이 문제를 해결하기 위해, 온톨로지를 기반으로 문서를 분류하고, 이 온톨로지에 정의된 키워드를 바탕으로 새로운 지식을 자동적으로 추론하여, 제품에 대한 기술적 지식을 가지고 검색하게 함으로서 필요 없는 검색 결과를 최소화 하고, 설계자의 지식 활용률을 높이고자 하였다.

The Buddhist Triad Cave in Gunwi (National treasure No. 109) consists of porphyritic biotite granite, and it has been deteriorated into microorganic smears, white films, brown rusts, granular decay, color changes, and joints by the same weathering factors as rain, moisture, temperature variation and microorganic living. Main origin is probably the rain that leaks into the cave along joints in Palgongsan granite, and then its moisture grows many microorganism and is frozen over during winter. The granites around the cave regularly develop two NEE and NWW joint sets that are conjugate to be a joint system. The NEE set extends far away with narrow joint spacings and affects the leakage of the rains, and is divided into 4 joint zones, among which J$_{m}$ and J$_{3}$ immediately affect the leaking water into the cave. An extensional Joint, in northern wall of the cave, was formed by toppling of the block between J$_{m}$and J$_{3}$joint zones from widening the Jm aperture by roots of a big pine tree, and passes through the J$_{m}$joint zone. This bypass allows no circulation of small rain, but a good circulation of heavy rain from influx to the cave for a long pathway. Many Joints and cracks, in the ceiling near the cave entrance, immediately get through the J$_3$ joint zone, and have a good circulation of small rain 10 mm. Both J$_{m}$and J$_{3}$ joint zones are, therefore, chief influxes that cause leakage of the rains.

A geotechnical research including observation of the movement of wall-structure, monitoring of groundwater, non-destructive geophysical investigation was conducted to workout a countermeasure to conserve the Muryong Royal Tomb which is the most extinguishable cultural property of the Baekje dynasty. Movement of the structure of Muryong Royal Tomb generally arises to the front chamber and its amplitude in a rainy season is twice of that in the dry season. It represents serious problem concerned about structural safety of the royal tomb in the rainy season. Movement of wall-structure is caused due to the rain infiltration through cracks in the quicklime layer within the soil mound on the top of the royal tomb and the change of the temperature inside of the tomb. Cracks found around the Muryong Royal Tomb are mostly spread in NW and SE of the tomb structure and it harmonizes with the direction of movement of wall-structure of the Muryong Royal Tomb. Counter-plans for safety and prevention of water-leakage that obstruct the movement of wall structures towards the direction of south are very important for the conservation of Muryong Royal Tomb. After getting rid of the cause of structural change by the restoration of the front chamber of the Muryong Royal Tomb, it needs to reinforce the quicklime layer for prevention of waterleak.

Measurements of the leakage flow in the shrouded cavity were performed in axial compressor cascades at $Re=2.6{\times}10^5$. This paper describes the effects of the leakage flow tangential velocity on kinematics of the leakage flow in the shrouded cavity and consequent overall loss and exit flow turning at stator blade row downstream. Flow data and flow visualization images consistently indicate that leakage flow circumferentially migrates 2, 4 and 5 blade passages in the direction of rotation for ${\upsilon}_y/c=0.09$, 0.35 and 0.45, respectively where ${\upsilon}_y$ is the leakage tangential velocity and c is the mainstream velocity. The leakage flow contracts to a jet across the seal-tooth resulting in an increase in the leakage axial velocity-doubling the leakage axial velocity in upstream cavity compared to that in the downstream cavity. Consequently, two flow regions are distinguished before and after the seal-tooth. As increasing the leakage tangential velocity, the overall loss downstream of stator blade row decreases and the exit flow turning in the range of span. from the hub endwall to 15% increases while the decreases in the flow turning from 15% to 30% span is observed.

This study is an evaluation of the water-tightness properties of rain-block systems in the sliding-roof joint of large-span membrane structures. In this study, we suggested a method of evaluating the water-tightness performance of the joint part of a sliding door in the roof of a large-span membrane structure (for a pilot project), in an environment of rain and wind. The shape of the rainwater blocking systems of the joint part in a sliding door verifies the defects and the effects of water leakage prevention when there is precipitation with wind conditions. To secure the water-tightness of large span membrane structures, it is necessary to have a guideline on the evaluation of the design for rain-block system of the joint part, and the quality of the membrane material, both of a retractable roof and a closed roof.

최근 이상기후현상으로 인한 가뭄과 홍수의 빈번한 발생으로 인해 인명 및 재산피해가 증대되고 있다. 특히 도시지역에서의 홍수 피해가 심각한 상황이다. 도시지역에서는 불투수 면적의 증가로 우수 유출량의 대부분을 배수관망에 의존하고 있다. 그럼에도 불구하고 현재 배수관거에 대한 관리는 미흡한 실정으로 노후되거나 부실한 배수관을 통해 토양으로 누수되거나, 관로 내에 누적된 퇴적물로 인한 관경의 축소 등으로 인해 우수가 원활하게 배제되지 못하고 지체되면서 인근지역의 침수피해를 증가시키고 있다. 이러한 피해를 경감시키기 위해서 지속적이고 신뢰성 있는 배수관 내 유황자료의 획득이 시급한 상황이다. 그러나 현재 수집되고 있는 도시지역의 배수 자료는 하천유황자료에 편중되어있으며, 배수관망 자료는 배수관망 내 유황자료의 획득이 어렵고, 배수관망 내에서 흐름의 경로 파악이 불가능 하다는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 도시 배수관망에 대한 지리정보시스템의 자료와 ubiquitous floater로부터 획득한 유황자료를 결합하여 도시 배수 관리 시스템을 구축하는 것에 목적을 두었다. 도시 배수 관리 시스템에서는 bluetooth 무선통신 기술을 이용한 ubiquitous floater를 사용하여 배수관망 내의 유속과 흐름 경로를 측정하고, 측정된 실시간 수문자료는 CDMA 무선통신모듈을 이용하여 server 컴퓨터에 전송된다. 수집된 자료는 대상유역의 지리정보시스템의 자료와 결합하여 도시 배수 관리 시스템으로 구축된다. 도시 배수 관리 시스템은 관리자가 배수관의 특성을 파악하고 문제발생시 신속하게 조치할 수 있게 도움을 줄 수 있으며, 전문적인 지식이 없는 누구나(whoever), 언제(whenever), 어디서(wherever)든 PC 앞에서 원거리에 위치한 도시 배수관망 내의 흐름 경로를 파악하고 관망 내 흐름의 현황을 파악할 수 있다.

Resistivity method has been used for the dam safety inspection and, for the convenience of fieldwork, two-dimensional (2D) resistivity data has been usually measured along the dam crest. However, since the dam has three-dimensional (3D) structure, 2D resistivity survey along the dam crest violates 2D assumption and 3D effects caused by 3D topography and material properties in the dam distort the inversion result of 2D resistivity data acquired along the dam crest. Furthermore, it is really hard to evaluate the 3D structure of the dam and 3D leakage pathway using 2D resistivity survey because 2D resistivity survey can provide only 2D resistivity section beneath the survey line. In this study, 3D resistivity survey was conducted at a dam in Korea. By comparing the results from 3D and 2D resistivity surveys, merit and demerits of 3D survey were investigated. Finally, it was confirmed that 3D survey can provide more accurate information about the dam status and 3D leakage pathway compared to the 2D survey. Therefore the 3D resistivity survey should be actively expanded for more accurate dam safety inspection even though more time and expense are required.

Recently International Water Association(IWA) has proposed new performance indicators for water supply services and their successful applications are being reported continually. According to the various reports, the percentage indicators were suggested not to be used for performance comparison, especially where the targeted areas have great difference in consumption per service connection. But unfortunately in Korea the revenue water ratio, one of the percentage indicators is still being used to set up the goal of water-related administration and to compare the performances between systems. Therefore this study aimed to prove the inapplicability of the percentage indicators with nation-wide data and to suggest better performance indicators for more efficient water loss management. According to the result of the comparison of various performance indicators with conventional one, it is roved that percentage indicators ca not evaluate the performance efficiently where the local situations are significantly different. It is suggested that the better performance indicators such as real losses per service connection or ILI should be used to benchmark the performances of water suppliers on water loss management so thai the problems of water losses could be identified easily and recovered effectively.
