Vibratory loads imposed by the rotating blade upon the fuselage has been one of major obstacles in rotorcrafts. A new concept of rotor blade is currently developed to adopt an Active Trailing-edge Flap (ATF) to alleviate such obstacles. The flap is mounted at 65~85% spanwise location from the rotor hub. The nominal rotational speed of the blade is as high as 1,528 RPM, to match the required tip Mach number. Structural integrity is one of the important design aspects to be maintained and monitored in this special type of rotor. This is due to that many detailed components, which drive the flap, are inserted inside the rotating blade. To conduct its structural design and analysis, CAMRAD-II and the one-dimensional beam analysis are used. At the same time, three-dimensional finite element analysis are also used, such as MSC. PATRAN/NASTRAN, in order to analyze the details of the present active blade. As a result, comparable characteristics for the present rotor are predicted by both approaches.

하천 및 수자원의 효율적인 관리와 더불어 다양한 수공구조물의 운영 및 관리를 위해서 구조물 주변에서 발생하는 불연속 흐름 및 급변류 등의 현상과 구조물 운영을 반영한 수치해석 기법을 이용한 모델 개발의 중요성이 커지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 하천의 불연속 흐름을 모의하기 위한 1차원 흐름해석 모형(K-River)을 개발하였다. 본 모형은 천이류와 급변류를 수치적으로 안정하게 처리하기 위하여 지배방정식을 보존형 Saint-Venant 방정식으로 선정하고, FVM과 Forward Euler 방법을 이용하여 이산화를 수행하였다. 수치흐름률을 계산하기 위해서 불규칙 단면과 하상의 급경사 등에 신뢰도가 높은 기법으로 판단되는 근사 Riemann해법 중 하나인 HLL flux를 이용하였다. 개발된 K-river 모형의 검증을 위해서 해석해가 존재하는 타원형의 하상융기가 있는 하도에 적용하였으며, 국내에서 하천 설계 및 관리를 위해서 광범위하게 이용되고 있는 1차원 흐름해석 모형인 FDM기반의 HEC-RAS 모의결과와 비교 검토를 수행하였다. 그 결과, FDM기법에서는 모의되지 않는 일부 급변류 패턴을 개발 모형을 통해 모의가능하였으며, 전체적으로 K-River가 기존 모형 보다 해석해에 근사한 결과를 나타내었다. 또한, 배수문을 비롯하여 합류부, 분류부, 펌프장, 암거 등이 설치되어 운영되고 있는 아라뱃길에 적용하여 K-River의 적용성을 평가하였다. K-River를 이용하여 아라뱃길의 흐름분석을 수행한 경우가 HEC-RAS를 이용한 경우보다 수위와 유량의 유동을 시간에 따라 세밀하게 모의하였으며, 이는 배수효과에 의한 파의 전달이 FDM기법 대비 정확히 모의되기 때문으로 판단된다. 추후 연구에서는 현재보다 시간간격을 상세화 하여 수집된 관측수위를 통해 추가적인 검증을 수행하고, 다양한 특성을 가진 타 하천 등에 적용하여 모형의 적용성을 확대하고자 한다.

The interest in evaluation of structural intensity arises for practical reasons, because net energy flow distribution offers information of energy transmission path, positions of sources, and sinks of vibration energy. In this paper, structural intensity analysis of local ship structures using finite element method(FEM) is carried out. The purpose of this analysis is to evaluate the relative accuracy according to mesh fineness. The structural intensity of unstiffened and stiffened plates varying their mesh fineness is analyzed and the results are compared with those obtained by the assumed mode method. As results, the proper mesh size in qualitative/quantitative structural intensity analysis of plate structures is proposed. In addition, the propagation phenomenon of vibration energy is investigated for the thickness-varying flat plate, L-type plate, and box-girder structures.

This study aims to develop a sort of expert system to simulate Internet of Things (IoT) service in architectural design alternatives and enhance the simulation performance using building information. The proposed protype system, named iotBIM, visualizes human behaviors and IoT services in a virtual place that is automatically generated from among design alternatives. We use commercial building information modeling (BIM) authoring tool for the development of iotBIM. The decision to develop iotBIM on the BIM platform was made because BIM tools already generate precise 3D models of design alternatives; iotBIM is plugged into the BIM tool as a simulation module. In the midst of the design process, architectural designers can activate iotBIM to investigate and establish IoT services that accord visually with design alternatives. The purpose of this study is to provide a theoretical and technological basis for the ultimate goal of this study.

도림천의 최상류인 관악산 유역에 서울대학교 관악캠퍼스가 건설되었다. 이로 인해 물순환은 기존의 자연 상태에서 점점 변해 왔는데, 이는 하류 도림천의 홍수 및 수질 오염의 피해를 증가시켰다. 도시화된 서울대학교 관악캠퍼스의 물순환 회복은 하류 홍수피해 방지와 지속 가능한 친환경 캠퍼스를 위해 중요하나, 이에 관한 연구는 미흡한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 SWMM(Storm Wastewater Management Model)을 활용하여 캠퍼스 내 물순환 현황을 시간과 공간에 대해 정량적으로 파악하고, 물순환 회복을 위해 지속 가능한 효율적인 시스템을 구현하고자 한다. 먼저 유역 현황 조사와 함께 SWMM 구축에 필요한 수문·기상학적 변수와 물리적 매개변수를 확립하였다. 수문·기상학적 변수로는 기상관측장비 ATMOS-41의 설치와 기상청 자료로부터 수집하였으며, 물리적 매개변수는 환경부의 자료를 활용하였다. 그 후, 서울대-도림천 배수분구에 대해 SWMM을 적용하여 월별로 유출량, 침투량, 그리고 증발산량을 모의하였다. 시간에 따른 물순환 분석의 경우 강수량 자료와 불투수율의 변화 정도에 따라 월별 물수지 비율을 파악하고, 공간에 따른 물순환 분석의 경우 동일한 기간에 대해 분할한 16개의 소유역 별 유출량과 유역의 평균 유출량을 비교하여 분석하였다. 대상 유역의 월별 물수지 비율을 모의하는데 효율성을 높이고자 배수 구역 및 관망을 세밀하게 나눈 경우와 그렇지 않은 경우에 대해 분석하였다. 그 결과, 시간에 따른 연평균 물수지 비율의 차이는 2020년 모의 결과와 최근 5년 평균(2015~2019년) 모의 결과 비교 시 각 물수지 항목별로 0.47~2.34%의 차이를 보였다. 공간적으로는 16개 소유역 중 저류시설을 포함한 9개 소유역의 표면 유출량이 유역의 평균 유출량보다 많게 모의 되었다. 또한, 유역을 구성할 때보다 관망을 구성할 때 높은 정확성이 요구됨을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구는 ATMOS-41을 통한 지속적인 수문·기상학적 요소의 모니터링과 SWMM 모델 구축을 통해 앞으로도 변경사항을 추가함으로써 친환경 캠퍼스로의 전환에 이바지할 것으로 기대한다.

A novel reference point detection method is proposed by exploiting tile gradient probabilistic model that captures the curvature information of fingerprint. The detection of reference point is accomplished through searching and locating the points of occurrence of the most evenly distributed gradient in a probabilistic sense. The uniformly distributed gradient texture represents either the core point itself or those of similar points that can be used to establish the rigid reference from which to map the features for recognition. Key benefits are reductions in preprocessing and consistency of locating the same points as the reference points even when processing arch type fingerprints. Moreover, the new feature extraction method is proposed by improving the existing feature extraction using filterbank method. Experimental results indicate the superiority of tile proposed scheme in terms of computational time in feature extraction and verification rate in various noisy environments. In particular, the proposed gradient probabilistic model achieved 49% improvement under ambient noise, 39.2% under brightness noise and 15.7% under a salt and pepper noise environment, respectively, in FAR for the arch type fingerprints. Moreover, a reduction of 0.07sec in reference point detection time of the GPM is shown possible compared to using the leading the poincare index method and a reduction of 0.06sec in code extraction time of the new filterbank mettled is shown possible compared to using the leading the existing filterbank method.

This study investigates the feasibility of three algorithms, K-Nearest Neighbors (K-NN), Random Forest (RF) and Neural Network (NN), for estimating the air temperature of an unobserved area where the weather station is not installed. The satellite image were obtained from Landsat-8 and MODIS Aqua/Terra acquired in 2019, and the meteorological ground weather data were from AWS/ASOS data of Korea Meteorological Administration and Korea Forest Service. In addition, in order to improve the estimation accuracy, a digital surface model, solar radiation, aspect and slope were used. The accuracy assessment of machine learning methods was performed by calculating the statistics of R² (determination coefficient) and Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) through 10-fold cross-validation and the estimated values were compared for each target area. As a result, the neural network algorithm showed the most stable result among the three algorithms with R² = 0.805 and RMSE = 0.508. The neural network algorithm was applied to each data set on Landsat imagery scene. It was possible to generate an mean air temperature map from June to September 2019 and confirmed that detailed air temperature information could be estimated. The result is expected to be utilized for national disaster safety management such as heat wave response policies and heat island mitigation research.

The quality of 2D-to-3D conversion depends on the accuracy of the assigned depth to scene objects. Manual depth painting for given objects is labor intensive as each frame is painted. Specifically, a human is one of the most challenging objects for a high-quality conversion, as a human body is an articulated figure and has many degrees of freedom (DOF). In addition, various styles of clothes, accessories, and hair create a very complex silhouette around the 2D human object. We propose an efficient method to estimate visually pleasing depths of a human at every frame in a monocular video. First, a 3D template model is matched to a person in a monocular video with a small number of specified user correspondences. Our pose estimation with sequential joint angular constraints reproduces a various range of human motions (i.e., spine bending) by allowing the utilization of a fully skinned 3D model with a large number of joints and DOFs. The initial depth of the 2D object in the video is assigned from the matched results, and then propagated toward areas where the depth is missing to produce a complete depth map. For the effective handling of the complex silhouettes and appearances, we introduce a partial depth propagation method based on color segmentation to ensure the detail of the results. We compared the result and depth maps painted by experienced artists. The comparison shows that our method produces viable depth maps of humans in monocular videos efficiently.

Sea ice is generally accepted as an important factor to understand the process of earth climate changes and is the basis of earth system models for analysis and prediction of the climate changes. To continuously monitor sea ice changes at kilometer scale, it is demanded to create more accurate grid data from the current, limited sea ice data. In this paper we described a downscaling method for Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer 2 (AMSR2) Sea Ice Concentration (SIC) from 10 km to 1 km resolution using a weighting scheme of sea ice days ratio derived from Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) sea ice cover product that has a high correlation with the SIC. In a case study for Okhotsk Sea, the sea ice areas of both data (before and after downscaling) were identical, and the monthly means and standard deviations of SIC exhibited almost the same values. Also, Empirical Orthogonal Function (EOF) analyses showed that three kinds of SIC data (ERA-Interim, original AMSR2, and downscaled AMSR2) had very similar principal components for spatial and temporal variations. Our method can apply to downscaling of other continuous variables in the form of ratio such as percentage and can contribute to monitoring small-scale changes of sea ice by providing finer SIC data.

Knowledge of the relationships among interspecific competition, spatial distributions and ecological niches plays an important role in understanding biogeographical distribution patterns of species. In this study, the distributional characteristics and ecological niches of the three Viperidae species (Gloydius ussuriensis, G. brevicaudus, and G. saxatilis) in South Korea were determined based on observation data and species distribution model. The effects of interspecific competition on geographical distribution and the division of the ecological niches of the vipers were also examined based on the models of predicted species distribution. The results showed that altitude was the most important environmental variable for their distribution, and the altitudes at which these snakes were distributed correlated with the climate of that region. Although interspecific ecological niches are quite overlapped, their predicted distribution patternsvary by the Taebaek Mountains. When overlaying the distribution models, most of the overlapping habitats were forest areas, which were relatively less overlapped than were the entire research areas. Thus, a parapatric distribution pattern was expected. The abundance of species occurring sympatrically was positively correlated with each other, indicating the lack of serious interspecies competition in this region. In conclusion, although the three Viperidae species in South Korea occupy similar ecological niches, these snakes exhibit parapatric distribution patterns without direct competition. Further research on various geographic variables (e.g., altitude, microhabitat characteristics) using relatively fine grid sizes, as well as further detailed ecological and behavioral research, is needed to determine the causative factors for the parapatric distribution pattern.
