In this research, design precipitation was calculated by reflecting the climatic indices and its uncertainty assessment was evaluated. Climatic indices used the sea surface temperature and moisture index which observed globally. The correlation coefficients were calculated between the annual maximum precipitation and the climatic indices. and then climatic indices which have the larger correlation coefficient were selected. Therefore, the regression relationship was established by a locally weighted polynomial regression. Next, climatic indices were generated by montecarlo simulation using kernel function. Finally, the design rainfall was calculated by the locally weighted polynomial regression using generated climatic indices. At the result, the comparison of design rainfall between the reflection of the climatic indices and the frequency analysis did not indicate a significant difference. Also, this result can be used as basic data for calculation of probability precipitation to reflect climate change.

Tracking and detecting targets by the microwave seeker is affected by the clutter reflecting from the earth's surface. In order to detect retreating targets in look-down scenario, which appear in the sidelobe clutter (SLC) region, in the microwave seeker of high pulse repetition frequency (HPRF) mode, it is necessary to understand statistical characteristics of the surface SLC. Statistical analysis of SLC has been conducted for several kinds of the surface using data obtained by the captive flight test of the microwave seeker in the HPRF mode. The probability density function (PDF) fitting is conducted for several kinds and conditions of the surface. PDFs and PDF parameters, which best describe statistical distribution of the SLC power, are estimated. By using the estimated PDFs and PDF parameters, analyses for setting the target-detection thresholds, which give a desired level of target-detection false alarm probability, are made. These analysis materials for statistical characteristics of SLC power and the target-detection threshold can be used in various fields, such as development of a target-detection method, the constant false alarm rate processing.

A new approach to improve the speaker adaptation algorithm by means of the variable number of observation density functions for CDHMM speech recognizer has been proposed. The proposed method uses the observation density function with more than one mixture in each state to represent speech characteristics in detail. The number of mixtures in each state is determined by the number of frames and the determinant of the variance, respectively. The each MAP Parameter is extracted in every mixture determined by these two methods. In addition, the state segmentation method requiring speaker adaptation can segment the adapting speech more Precisely by using speaker-independent model trained from sufficient database as a priori knowledge. And the state duration distribution is used lot adapting the speech duration information owing to speaker's utterance habit and speed. The recognition rate of the proposed methods are significantly higher than that of the conventional method using one mixture in each state.

수문학적 가뭄 발생의 직접적 영향은 강수부족량이나, 다양한 사회경제적 인자들은 수문학적 가뭄에 간접적으로 영향을 미치고 있다. 물관리 선진기관에서는 인간의 활동 및 물관리 방식에 따라 수문학적 가뭄을 심화시키거나 완화시킬 수 있음을 인지하고, 인간의 물사용이 가뭄에 미치는 영향을 평가하기 위한 다양한 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 강수량 및 미래의 인구변화에 따른 수문학적 가뭄의 영향의 정도를 판단함으로써, 인간의 활동이 가뭄에 미치는 영향을 정량적으로 제시하고자 한다. 충정북도 시군지역을 대상지역으로 선정하였으며, 시군 장래인구 추정값을 미래 인구자료로, 미래 유출량이 산정되어 제공되는 RCP 4.5와 RCP 8.5시나리오를 활용하여 미래 가뭄상황 예측하였다. 강수량 및 인구변화가 수문학적 가뭄에 미치는 영향 평가를 위하여 코플라함수 기반의 베이지안 네트워크 모형이 활용하였다. 베이지안 네트워크는 강수량, 인구밀도, 수문학적 가뭄사이의 관계 도출을 위하여 활용되었으며, 베이지안 네트워크 내의 결합확률의 산정을 위하여 코플라 함수가 활용되었다. 미래의 강수량 및 인구밀도의 변화에 따른 수문학적 가뭄의 영향 관계를 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 강수량이 인구밀도보다 수문학적 가뭄의 발생에 영향을 미치며, 약 0.2~0.3 정도 발생확률이 크게 산정되었다. 두 인자를 동시에 고려할 경우, 강수량이 적고, 인구밀도가 높아지는 조건(F(강수량)=0.1, F(인구밀도)=0.9)에서는 조건부 CDF 변화율이 크게 나타나, 곧 수문학적 가뭄의 위험성이 높음을 확인할 수 있었다. 인구밀도는 수문학적 가뭄의 발생 위험성을 높이 알려져 있으나, 정량적으로 그 값을 제시한 연구 사례는 찾기 어렵다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 가뭄의 영향정도를 정량적으로 표현하였으며, 한 인자만의 영향이 아닌 두 개 이상의 인자들의 복합적인 영향 정도를 제시함으로써 수치적인 비교가 가능하게 하였다. 미래 추정 인자가 인구자료가 한정적이라 인구 자료만을 활용하여 수문학적 가뭄에 미치는 영향을 분석하였으나, 다른 사회경제적 지표를 활용하여 미래 변화에 따른 미래 수문학적 가뭄의 영향 정도의 비교 및 분석 결과를 바탕으로 가뭄 대응 우선순위 선정을 위한 연구자료로 활용 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

Estimating moving vehicle loads is important in modeling design loads for bridge design and construction. The paper proposes a moving force identification algorithm using moment influence lines measured at multi-axes. Density estimation function was applied to estimate more than two wheel loads when estimated load values fluctuated severely. The algorithm has been examined through simulation studies on a simple-span plate-girder bridge. Influences of measurement noise and error in velocity on the identification results were investigated in the simulation study. Also, laboratory experiments were carried out to examine the algorithm. The load identification capability was dependent on the type and speed of moving loads, but the developed algorithm could identify loads within 10% error in maximum.

This paper presents a comprehensive laboratory study that examines the effects of porosity, water content, density and grain size distribution on the thermal conductivity of soils which were sampled from 16 synoptic stations of Korea. The experimental results clearly demonstrate that porosity and water content are important parameters which strongly affect the thermal conductivity of soils. Soils with lower porosities and higher water contents have higher thermal conductivities. On the contrary, increase of the matrix density slightly increases the thermal conductivity, and grain size distribution hardly affects the thermal conductivity. Dry soils with the same porosity tend to have more scattered values of thermal conductivity than wet soils. Based on the experimental results, a multiple linear regression model and a nonlinear regression model, having two regression variables of porosity and water content, were presented to predict thermal conductivity. Both models show a high accuracy of prediction with $R^2$ values of 0.74 and 0.82, respectively. Thus, it is expected that the suggested empirical models can be used for predicting thermal conductivity of soils by measuring porosity and water content.

The stress and displacement fields at the crack tip were studied during the unsteady propagation of a mode III crack in a direction that was different from the property graduation direction in functionally graded materials (FGMs). The property graduation in FGMs was assumed based on the linearly varying shear modulus under a constant density and the exponentially varying shear modulus and density. To obtain the solution of the harmonic function, the general partial differential equation of the dynamic equilibrium equation was transformed into a Laplace equation. Based on the Laplace equation, the stress and displacement fields, which depended on the time rates of change in the crack tip speed and stress intensity factor, were obtained through an asymptotic analysis. Using the stress and displacement fields, the effects of the angled property variation on the stresses, displacements, and stress intensity factors are discussed.

A three-dimensional numerical model with free water surface was established to investigate flow characteristics of surface buoyant jets and river plumes. Turbulent shear stresses and turbulent buoyancy fluxes were expressed in terms of the eddy viscosities and diffusivities. Stable stratification effects due to density difference between discharged water and receiving ambient water were taken into with empirical formulae. Through a comparison of numerical results with published experimental data the validity of the model was shown and the optimal stratification functions was determined The three-dimensional spreading characteristics were examined and the effects of inlet densimetric Froude number, inlet aspect ratio and water surface elevation on the flow development were discussed.

Clustering is one of the most important unsupervised learning methods that clusters data into homogeneous groups. However, cluster centers tend leaning to high density clusters because clustering is based on the distances between data points and cluster centers. In this paper, a modified clustering method forcing cluster centers to be apart by introducing a center-scattering term in the Fuzzy C-Means objective function is introduced. The proposed method converges more to real centers with small number of iterations compared to the original one. All the strengths can be verified with experimental results.
