A discharge measurement is difficult in flood season which is especially important in the water resources field and the continuous discharge measurement for all rivers is impossible on the present system. So, the stage-discharge curve has been used for a long time to produce discharge data of rivers. However, there has been problems from a reliability angle due to the fact that this method uses only stage-discharge relationship, although the stage-discharge curve has the convenience. Therefore, a new mean velocity equation was derived by using Chiu's 2D velocity formula of the entropy concept in this paper. The derived equation reflected hydraulic characteristics such as the depth, gravity acceleration, hydraulic radius, energy slope, kinematic coefficient of viscosity, etc. and estimated also a maximum velocity. In addition, this method verified the relationship between a mean and maximum velocity and estimates an equilibrium state ${\phi}(M)$ well presenting properties of a river cross section as the results. The mean velocity was estimated by using the equilibrium state ${\phi}(M)$, and then the discharge was estimated. To prove this equation to be accurate, the comparison between the measured and estimated discharge is conducted by using the measured laboratory data in the unsteady condition flow showing loop state and the results are consistent. If this study is constantly carried out by using various laboratory and river data, this method will be widely utilized in water resources field.

The 3D laser scanner operates by measuring the distance from the sensor to the target and operates on the same principle as Electronic Distance Measuring (EDM). Recently, 3D laser scanning technology has been rapidly developed in line with the strongly increasing demand for 3D information acquisition. Therefore, it is now possible to more easily acquire geometric information of various objects existing in real space. In this study, we constructed geospatial information by using new equipment which integrated 3D laser scanner and total station, and we suggest the possibility of using new technology for geospatial information construction by comparing and analyzing with existing methods. In the study result, we demonstrated the efficiency of the geospatial information constructed by integration of 3D laser scanner and total station. The proposed method is expected to shorten the time required for data acquisition compared to the existing method using the existing total station. Furthermore, it is possible to use various methods such as cross section analysis and volume calculation using the acquired data. In the future, spatial information construction by integration of 3D laser scanner and total station will help improve work efficiency in related fields.

Fatigue crack initiation life has a wide scatter and this makes the fatigue design of structural members difficult. In order to make the fatigue life distribution clear, it is required to prepare a large number of specimens and repeat the fatigue tests under the same loading condition. Such fatigue tests usually take much time and cost. In this study, a fatigue testing method using a multi-notched test specimen for the purpose of estimating the distribution function of fatigue crack initiation life by small number of fatigue tests is used. The purpose of this study is to verify the above fatigue testing method of a multi-notched specimen by using Bayesian reliability analysis, Least square method and Skewness method for the determination of unknown Weibull parameters. The multi-notched specimen is a specimen in which several tens of statistically identical notches are prepared.

In order to construct 3D geospatial information about the terrain, current measurement using a total station, remote sensing, GNSS(Global Navigation Satellite System) have been used. However, ground survey and GNSS survey have time and economic disadvantages because they have to be surveyed directly in the field. In case of using aerial photographs and satellite images, these methods have the disadvantage that it is difficult to obtain the three-dimensional shape of the terrain. The terrestrial LiDAR can acquire 3D information of X, Y, Z coordinate and shape obtained by scanning innumerable laser pulses at densely spaced intervals on the surface of the object to be observed at high density, and the processing can also be automated. In this study, terrestrial LiDAR was used to analyze slope displacement. Study area slopes were selected and data were acquired using LiDAR in 2016 and 2017. Data processing has been used to generate slope cross section and slope data, and the overlay analysis of the generated data identifies slope displacements within 0.1 m and suggests the possibility of using slope LiDAR on land to manage slopes. If periodic data acquisition and analysis is performed in the future, the method using the terrestrial lidar will contribute to effective risk slope management.

In the present work, the thrust and torque of multicopter propellers in hovering are predicted based on BET method. The geometry information of the propellers is obtained using a three dimensional scanner and the airfoil section is extracted using CATIA. EDISON CFD is adopted to calculate the drag and lift of airfoil at a given geometry and flow conditions and then thrust is calculated with respect to a given RPMs based on BET. Two simulations with laminar and turbulent flows are considered. The predicted value is compared with the performance data from the Product Company and results from JavaProp software, which is used in the design and prediction of propellers. In the case of a 9-inch propeller, the thrust from the product company is corresponding to the results between the laminar and turbulent flow conditions. In the 16-inch case, the predicted thrust at turbulent flow conditions conformed well with reference one. The predicted torque shows a big difference with the reference data.

The microwave exposure device for microwave breast cancer detection consists of RF transceiver and several antennas. The microwave information of object acquired from the microwave exposure device can be calculated permittivity and conductivity by using the inverse scattered analysis. In this paper, we have developed the software for detecting breast cancers based on microwave tomography, by which users not only can check out the existence of breast cancers through the permittivity and conductivity information analysis of the object's internal, but also can analysis easily information for distribution of breast cancers. The developed software provides the function for visualizing the captured permittivity and conductivity information as 2D or 3D color images on which users can easily detect the existence of breast cancers. For more detailed analysis of tomography images, the proposed software also has provided the functions for displaying their cutting profiles as well as position and size information of special area in them.

This paper will present hybrid tests to a one bay-one story steel frame structure under ground excitation. A structure used in this paper for hybrid test, to evaluate performance and behavior, is divided into two models; one is numerical model with one column element, and a truss or a beam element, the other is physical substructural model with one beam-column element. All tests considered one or three degrees of freedom to implement real-time hybrid test, and two control algorithms to control hardware are used; one using MATLAB/Simulink, the other using OpenSees, OpenFresco and xPCTarget. In addition, for real-time data communication between numerical and physical substructural models SCRAMNet was used. The results of hybrid tests were compared with one of numerical analysis of numerical model with fiber force-based beam-column elements using OpenSees. Real-time hybrid tests were implemented for the validation of control system with simple structure, and then it will be extended to hybrid test for higher nonlinear or complex structure later on.

Singular value decomposition (SVD) has been widely used to identify unique features from a data set in various fields. However, a complex matrix calculation of SVD requires tremendous computation time. This paper improves the performance of a representative one-sided block Jacoby algorithm using a two-dimensional (2D) multi-core system. In addition, this paper explores an optimal multi-core system by varying the number of processing elements in the 2D multi-core system with the same 400MHz clock frequency and TSMC 28nm technology for each matrix-based one-sided block Jacoby algorithm ($128{\times}128$, $64{\times}64$, $32{\times}32$, $16{\times}16$). Moreover, this paper demonstrates the potential of the 2D multi-core system for the one-sided block Jacoby algorithm by comparing the performance of the multi-core system with a commercial high-performance graphics processing unit (GPU).

In this paper, the lifetime of the artificial space objects in the LEO is analysed by using TLE data, which is provided by JSpOC. We observed the change of the number of space objects from 1957 and determined the reason of space debris generation. And then, we performed the analysis about present condition of space debris environment. The lifetime analysis includes a total of 11,792 artificial space objects and performed until the year 2050 by orbit propagation. We analyze the annual reentry frequency for the high RCS objects such as nonoperational satellites and rocket bodies, which have the possibility of earth ground impact through STK/Lifetime Tool for accurate and effective calculation. The results show that 9 payloads or rocket bodies will be decayed annually and 2 or 3 objects of total value have the possibility of ground impact. In addition, it is also shown that the 40% of a total analysed objects have the lifetime over 200 years.

반세기가 지나는 동안 우리는 반도체의 크기가 계속해서 작아지는 것을 경험해왔다. 반도체 디바이스들의 차원이 100 nm 이하로 작아지면서, 나노와이어나 나노튜브로 이루어진 나노 소자들은 필연적으로 양자효과[1] 같은 저차원효과가 나타나게 된다. 특히 1차원 반도체 구조에서는 전자상태 밀도의 변화에 수반되는 전자-포논의 상호작용이 감소되어 전자이동도가 증가할 것으로 예측되었고, 이러한 이동도의 증가는 그동안 나노와이어나 나노튜브의 전기 전도도 증가가 일어난 실험적 데이터를 설명하는 이론적 받침이 되었다[2]. 한편 일차원 반도체 구조 체에서는 채널의 저차원화에 따른 전기장의 불균일성이 심화되고 이로 인하여 벌크와 매우 다른 전기수송 특성이 나타날 수 있는데 이러한 점이 그동안 간과되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 시뮬레이션을 통하여 양자효과를 배제한 정전기적인 저차원 효과만으로도 전기 전도도가 증가할 수 있음을 보이고자 한다. 우리는 푸아송 방정식과 표동-확산 방정식을 SILVACO사의 ATLAS 3D 시뮬레이터를 이용하여 풀었다. 이 시뮬레이션에 사용된 실리콘 나노와이어는 길이를 $2{\mu}m$로 고정시키고 다양한 정사각형 단면적을 가진 구조로 하였다. 여기서 정사각형의 한변을 10nm 에서 100 nm까지 변화시켰다. 실리콘 채널의 도핑농도가 $1{{\times}}1016cm-3$일 경우, 낮은 전압, 즉 < 0.5 V 이하 영역에서는 벌크와 같은 선형적인 전류-전압 특성이 나타나지만, 그 이상의 전압 영역에서는 전류-전압 그래프가 위로 휘어지며(super-linear) 전기전도도가 확연히 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 예를 들어 2 V에서는 벌크에 비하여 흐르는 전류가 2배나 더 향상되었다. 이런 비선형적인 성질은 높은 전압을 인가하였을 때 나노와이어 채널 전반에 걸쳐 charge neutrality가 깨지게 되고 전하밀도가 증가하여 전도도 증가가 일어나는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 이 결과는 기존의 나노선에서의 전기전도도 증가 현상을 설명할 수 있는 대안을 제공할 수 있다.
