The methodology of utilizing Intensity-Duration-flood Quantity (IDQ) curve for flood alert and warning was introduced and its performance was evaluated. For this purpose the lumped parameter model was calibrated and validated for gauged basin data set and the index precipitation equivalent to alert and warning flood was estimated. The index precipitation and IDQ curves associated by three different Antecedant Moisture Conditions (AMCs) are made provision for various possible flood scenarios. The test basin is Wonju-cheon basin ($94.4km^2$) located in Gangwon province, Korea. The IDQ curves corresponding to alert (50% of design flood level) and warning (70% of design flood level) level was estimated using the Clark unit hydrograph based lumped parameter model. The performance evaluation showed 0.704 of POD (Probability of Detection), 0.136 of FAR (False Alarm Ratio), and 0.633 of CSI (Critical Success Index), which is improved from the result of IDQ with single fixed AMC.

The effective resolution of the direct current potential drop (DCPD) method for crack length determination is strongly affected by a number of factors including wire locations and calibration method. In the present study, the effects of wire locations, thermal EMF and reference probe locations on the accuracy of calibration methods, including Hicks-Pickard equation and Johnson's equation, were examined with the CT specimens which were nine times larger than the standard specimen. In light of experimental results, it was found that Hicks-Pickard equation can accurately represent the a/W-V/Vo relationship when current input wire is located at the load line. It was also found that the accuracy of DCPD method can be greatly improved with the thermal EMF calibration and the use of Vo value at a/W = 0.241. The use of reference potential was found to be impractical when current input wire is located at the load line.

Recession of hydrograph gives a significant contribution to estimation of baseflow using rainfall-runoff models and baseflow separation methods, because recession affects baseflow. This study attempted to enhance the accuracy of streamflow predictions using a Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model and to separate baseflow from the predicted streamflow. For this, this study used two scenarios: 1) to calibrate eleven parameters using an auto-calibration tool with the alpha factor obtained from RECESS (S1); and 2) to calibrate twelve SWAT parameters including alpha factor (one of SWAT parameters) using an auto-calibration tool (S2). Then, baseflow spearation from the predicted streamflow was conducted by using Web-based Hydrograph Analysis Tool (WHAT). The results show that there is no significant difference between Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency (NSE) values of S1 and S2 for calibrations to streamflow. However, calibrations to baseflow showed that NSEs are 0.777 for S1 and 0.844 for S2, which means a significant difference. Quantitatively compared to the observed streamflow, relative errors were 20.78 % for S1 and 6.59 % for S2. Finally, this study showed the importance of recession in baseflow separated from the predicted streamflow using a rainfall-runoff model.

The purpose of this study is to get the adjusted radar rainfalls by ANN(Artificial Neural Network) method. In the case of radar rainfall, it has an advantage of spatial distribution characteristics of rainfall while point rainfall has an advantage at the point. Therefore we adjusted the radar rainfall by ANN method considering the advantages of two rainfalls of radar and point. This study constructed two ANN models of Model I and Model II for radar rainfall adjustment. We collected the three rainfall events and adjusted the radar rainfall for Anseong-cheon basin. The two events were inputted into the Modeland Model to derive the optimum parameters and the rest event was used for validation. The adjusted radar rainfalls by ANN method and the raw radar rainfall were used as the input data of ModClark model which is a semi-distributed model to simulate the runoff. As the results of the simulation, the runoff by raw radar rainfall were overestimated but the peak time and peak runoff from the adjusted rainfall by ANN were well fitted to the observed hydrograph.

This study investigated the size selectivity of the round traps for greenling (Hexagrammos otakii) in the western sea of Korea. The selection curve for the greenling from the experiments on Oct. 2000 and Ar. 2001 was fitted by Kitahara's method to a polynomial equation and two parameter logistic selection curve. The selectio curve of the latter was more reasonable than that of the former. The equation of selectivity curve obtained using a logistic function with least square method was , s(R)=1/1+exp(-1.1169R+6.4565), where R=1/m, and 1 and m are total length and mesh size, respectively. The size selectivity curve showed that the current regulated mesh size(35mm) in case of the round trap was close to the L50 (37.0mm) of the selection curve for the biological minimum length (21.4cm) of the greenling.

In this paper, we propose an image-based method for modeling 3D objects with curved surfaces based on the NURBS (Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines) representation. Starting from a few calibrated images, the user specifies the corresponding curves by means of an interactive user interface. Then, the 3D curves are reconstructed using stereo reconstruction. In order to fit the curves easily using the interactive user interface, NURBS curves and surfaces are employed. The proposed surface modeling techniques include surface building methods such as bilinear surfaces, ruled surfaces, generalized cylinders, and surfaces of revolution. In addition to these methods, we also propose various advanced surface modeling techniques, including skinned surfaces, swept surfaces, and boundary patches. Based on these surface modeling techniques, it is possible to build various types of 3D shape models with textured curved surfaces without much effort. Also, it is possible to reconstruct more realistic surfaces by using proposed view-dependent texture acquisition algorithm. Constructed 3D shape model with curves and curved surfaces can be exported in VRML format, making it possible to be used in different 3D graphics softwares.

It is one of the most important factors to determine the effective rainfall for estimation of flood hydrograph in design schedule. SCS curve number (CN) method has been frequently used to estimate the effective rainfall of synthesized design flood hydrograph for hydraulic structures. But, it should be cautious to apply SCS-CN originally developed in U.S.A to watersheds in Korea, because characteristics of watersheds in Korea and cropping patterns especially like a paddy land cultivation are quite different from those in USA. New CN method has been introduced. Maximum storage capacity which was herein defined as Umax can be calibrated from the streamflow data and converted to new CN-I of direst condition of soil moisture in the given watershed. Effective rainfall for design flood hydrograph can be estimated by the curve number developed in the watersheds in Korea.

수공구조물 설계의 기본이 되는 설계홍수량은 정상성 (Stationary) 가정 하에 산정되고 있다. 정상성은 분포형의 매개변수들이 시간에 따라 변화하지 않는 것을 의미한다. 그러나 최근 기후변화로 인한 극치사상의 크기와 빈도가 비정상적인 증가 추세를 나타내고 있어 강우자료의 변화 특성을 정확하게 파악하기 위해서는 비정상성 (Non-Stationary)에 대한 고려가 필요한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 비정상성을 고려한 미래 IDF (Intensity-Duration-Frequency) 곡선을 산정하고, 기후변화에 의한 IDF 곡선의 특성 변화를 분석하고자 한다. 연구대상지로 충청남도 공주시에 위치한 계룡저수지를 선정하였고, 계룡저수지에 인접한 대전 관측소의 과거 강우자료 (1981-2010년)를 수집하였다. 또한 기상청에서 제공하는 RCP4.5 시나리오 기반의 미래 강우자료를 편의보정하여 3개 기간 (2011-2040년, 2041-2070년, 2071-2100년)에 대한 미래 강우자료를 구축하였고, 지속시간별 연최대치 강우자료를 추출하여 경향성 분석 및 비정상성 빈도해석을 실시하였다. 강우자료의 확률분포형과 매개변수 추정방법으로는 GEV (Generalized Extreme Value)분포와 L-모멘트법을 선정하였다. 이를 바탕으로 과거 및 미래 기간별 IDF 곡선을 산정하였으며, 그 특성을 비교분석하였다. 본 연구에서 도출한 IDF 곡선은 계룡저수지의 설계한도를 재검토하는데 활용될 수 있으며, 본 연구에서 제시한 방법은 기후변화에 따른 농업용저수지의 안정성 검토에 사용할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Multi-anvil press (MAP) is one of the high pressure apparatuses and often generates the pressure-conditions ranging from 5 to 25 GPa and temperature-conditions up to $2,300^{\circ}C$. The MAP is, therefore, suitable to explore the pressure-induced structural changes in diverse earth materials from Earth's mantle and the bottom of the mantle transition zone (~660 km). In this study, we present the experimental results for pressure-load calibration of the 1,100-ton multi-anvil press equipped in the authors' laboratory. The pressure-load calibration experiments were performed for the 14/8 step, 14/8 G2, 14/8 HT, and 18/12 assembly sets. The high pressure experiments using ${\alpha}$-quartz, wollastonitestructure of $CaGeO_3$, and forsterite as starting materials were analyzed by powder X-ray diffraction spectroscopy. The phase transition of each mineral indicates the specific pressure that is loaded to a sample at $1,200^{\circ}C$: a transition of ${\alpha}$-quartz to coesite at 3.1 GPa, that of garnet-structure of $CaGeO_3$ to perovskite-structure at 5.9 GPa, that of coesite to stishovite at 9.2 GPa, and that of forsterite to wadsleyite at 13.6 GPa. While the estimated pressure-load calibration curve is generally consistent with those obtained in other laboratories, the deviation up to 50 tons is observed at high pressure above 10 GPa. This is partly because of the loss of oil pressure at high pressure resulting from the differences in a sample chamber, and the frictional force between pressure medium and second anvil. We also report the ${\sim}200^{\circ}C/mm$ of thermal gradient in the vertical direction of the sample chamber of 14/8 HT assembly. The pressure-load calibration curve and the observed thermal gradient within the sample chamber can be applied to explain the structural changes and the relevant macroscopic properties of diverse crystalline and amorphous earth materials in the mantle.
