To numerically simulate the advance of EPB TBM, various type of numerical analysis methods have been adopted including discrete element method (DEM), finite element method (FEM), and finite difference method (FDM). In this paper, an EPB TBM driving model was proposed by using coupled DEM-FDM. In the numerical model, DEM was applied in the TBM excavation area, and contact properties of particles were calibrated by a series of triaxial tests. Since the ground around the excavation area was coupled with FDM, the horizontal stress considering the coefficient of earth pressure at rest could be applied. Also, the number of required particles was reduced and the efficiency of the analysis was increased. The proposed model can control the advance rate and rotational speed of the cutter head and screw conveyor, and derive the torque, thrust force, chamber pressure, and discharging during TBM tunnelling.

The underwater glider using conception of Lagrangian method, is a new observation platform to understand the properties of the ocean vertically. In 2011 March, KORDI made a first successful autonomous trip from Hupo to west coast of Uleungdo piloting Littoral Glider of Alaska Native Technology LLC. The journey considered many environmental variables and route vigilantly selected, the glider covered 177 km horizontally and took approximately 6 days (153 hours). Despite the existence of 1 kt eddy current, Sound velocity sampling was conducted from 5 meters and reaching maximum of 200 meters depth at each dive. It successfully collected sound velocity and temperature profile at every 5 seconds totaling up to 1408 profiles using SVT&P sensor. During the flight it was also a mission to check the diverse modes of the glider i.e. spiral, waypoints, heading, drift and hover could function without a defect in a given situation. These modes were thoroughly monitored and it could be considered that the glider handled it well during the flight. As a result of this test flight, it was evident that the given underwater glider could operate under 2kt current environment with users defined heading and depth, also with the payload up to 5 kg without changing internal buoyancy.

The underground utilities installed under the ground is an important civil engineering structure, such as water supply and sewerage pipes, underground power lines, various communication lines, and city gas pipes. Such underground utilities can be exposed to risk due to external factors such as concentrated rainfall and vehicle load, and it is important to select and construct an appropriate backfill material. Currently, a method mainly used is to fill the soil around the underground utilities and compact it. But it is difficult to compact the lower part of the buried pipe and the compaction efficiency decreases, reducing the stability of the underground utilities and causing various damages. In addition, there are disadvantages such as a decrease in ground strength due to disturbance of the ground, a complicated construction process, and construction costs increase because the construction period becomes longer, and civil complaints due to traffic restrictions. One way to solve this problem is to use a liquid filler. The liquid filler has advantages such as self-leveling ability, self-compaction, fluidity, artificial strength control, and low strength that can be re-excavated for maintenance. In this study, uniaxial compression strength test and fluidity test were performed to characterize the mixed soil using marine clay, stabilizer, and in-situ soil as backfill material. A freezing-thawing test was performed to understand the strength characteristics of the liquid filler by freezing, and in order to examine the effect of the filling materials on the corrosion of the underground pipe, an electrical resistivity test and a pH test were performed.

The display technology on the retina is the key role in inspecting the condition of the patients. 2-dimensional retina image is widely used in the eye examination as of today. Recently, 3-dimensional retina image ones have been introduced to this area, but the quality of the image is not fully satisfied to the operator. For the purpose of developing 3-D retina imaging instrument, the optimization of a 3-D retina imaging system using Code-V tool was investigated in this thesis. He-Ne laser having the wavelength 632.8 nm was used to make a power source to detect the retina. Several lenses and mirrors installed on sledge which were developed to perform focus control on 3-D device were designed to make a beam focusing and direct line. Polygon scanner having 24 mirror facets and galvanometer making tilting movement were utilized to make a 2-D laser plane. Also, design of eye ball had been fulfilled to see the focus of the 2-D plane. Reflected ray from retina detected on the sensor array with the same path. All cognitive components were optimized for aberration correction in order to focus on retina. Results of optimization were compared to those of initial designed optics system. On the basis of above results, the result of third aberration has been corrected to stable values to the optical system. MTF evaluating the resolution of an image has been closely correlated to the diffraction limit and PSF indicating the strength distribution of an image has shown the SR value as 0.9998 having high performance. The possibility of new and powerful 3-D retina image instrument was verified by simulating each component of the instrument by Code-V.

Certain complex forces are existing at the other side of a canvas. These are visual arrangements and within the arrangement, even the simple combination of dots and lines create more than visual patterns. No matter what form that visual art has taken, it is performed in a certain space and it is constucted with various visual elements. For effective communication, visual elements must form a stable sturcture by extablishing organic relationship among each other. These requires an understanding of the human visual characteristics and psychonology, because human sight senses the same biological and psychological visual elements differently in its force and weight, according to the position within a given space. Although the structure which controls such force and weight exists within a peice of work, it is a internal plan of the work that actually controls the communication through a man\ulcorner psychological reactions towards the horizontal and virtical structures within it. Moreover it is a visual statement that effectively expresses a theme or a message. This thesis has studied visual structures through the analysis of art pieces regarding of these kind of a visual picture plane, characteristics of a picture plane formed by a structure of force existing on the other side of the picture and the theory of visual balance. In addition, the aim of this study is to help designers who deals with visual image works to understand the visual structures and psychological recognitions and to apply these picture plane compositions at their real work by recognizing the psychological power within the construction elements.

여름철의 강우시 저수지에 주로 유입되는 고탁수층은 저수지내의 수체에 대하여 밀도차와 유속차를 가지며, 난류혼합을 일으키면서 주변수를 유입하며 하류방향으로 이송 확산되어 간다. 임하댐과 같은 대형 저수지는 수심이 30 m가 넘는 관계로 여름철에 2개의 수온약층이 존재한다. 따라서 댐체에 도달한 고탁수층은 저수지내의 밀도성층으로 인하여 주로 중층에 분포하게 되며, 가을철에 발생하는 수평확산과 전도현상으로 인해 저수지 전역에 분포하게 되어 탁질입자의 분포에 따라 탁수현상의 장기화를 유발하기도 한다. 이와 같은 탁수문제의 저수지내 대책으로는 홍수기에 고탁수층을 우선적으로 취수하는 방법이 있다. 고탁수층은 이와같이 수온약층과 밀접한 관계를 가지며, 취수탑 주변의 선택취수 결과에 영향을 받는다. 형성된 탁수층을 효율적으로 선택배제하기 위해서는 취수시설에 접근하는 성층흐름을 정확하게 이해해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 3차원 CFD를 사용하여 밀도성층에 따른 취수탑 주변의 접근흐름을 수치해석하여 방류수심, 방류유속 및 밀도성층구조의 선택배제에 대한 영향을 분석하였다. 임하댐 취수설비에 적용한 결과에 의하면 상층, 중층, 하층에서 취수탑 문비를 개도하였을 경우, 취수탑 주변에서만 유속이 증가하였을 뿐 저수지 내에서는 유속이 크게 증가되지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 하지만 문비 개도구간의 변화에 따라 수심별 유속분포는 크게 변화하는 것을 확인할 수 있다. 따라서 문비를 조절하는 것은 저수지 전체의 유동을 깨뜨리지 않으면서 취수탑 인근에서 선택취수가 가능하다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 본 연구에서는 정밀한 현장조사를 수행하여 저수지와 방류수의 탁도변화를 모니터링하였으며, 취수탑 개구부 주변의 연직 유속분포를 측정하였다. 3차원 수치모의 결과와 현장에서 관측한 유속장을 비교함으로써 본 연구에서 제시한 실제 탁수배제능력을 검증하였다.를 구축하였다는데 의의가 있다.로와 접하는 건물의 경우 모서리부 광고 효과가 지배적이며 대부분 곡선돌출형이 사용되고 있었다. 그러므로 모서리 저층부를 필로티로 계획하여 보행흐름을 원활하게 하고 대신 입면을 투명하게 하여 간접광고(내부전시) 효과를 유도하는 것이 좋다. 특히 원형모서리는 건물 특화 성격이 강하므로 불가피할 경우 소형 액센트 광고 위치를 미리 벽면으로 할애하는 것이 경관 및 입면계획에 유리한 것으로 분석되었다. 불확실도 해석모형 등의 새로운 기능을 추가하여 제시하였다. 모든 입출력자료는 프로젝트 단위별로 운영되어 data의 관리가 손쉽도록 하였으며 결과를 DB에 저장하여 다른 모형에서도 적용할 수 있도록 하였다. 그리고 HyGIS-HMS 및 HyGIS-RAS 모형에서 강우-유출-하도 수리해석-범람해석 등이 일괄되게 하나의 시스템 내에서 구현될 수 있도록 하였다. 따라서 HyGIS와 통합된 수리, 수문모형은 국내 하천 및 유역에 적합한 시스템으로서 향후 HydroInformatics 구현을 염두에 둔 특화된 국내 수자원 분야 소프트웨어의 개발에 기본 토대를 제공할 것으로 판단된다.았다. 또한 저자들의 임상병리학적 연구결과가 다른 문헌에서 보고된 소아 신증후군의 연구결과와 큰 차이를 보이지 않음을 알 수 있었다. 자극에 차이가 있지 않나 추측되며 이에 관한 추후 연구가 요망된다. 총대장통과시간의 단축은 결장 분절 모두에서 줄어들어 나타났으나 좌측결장 통과시간의 감소 및 이로 인한 이 부위의 통과시간 비율의 저하가 가장 주요하였다. 이러한 결과는 차가운 생수 섭취가 주로 결장 근위부를 자극하는 효과를 발휘하는 것이 아닌가 해석된다. 이와 같은 연구결과를 통해 생다시마를 주원료로 개발된 생다시마차와 생다시마 음료가 만성 기능성 변비 증세를 개선하는 효능이 잠재적으로 있음을 확인하였다. 그러나 생약제재의 변비약 수준으로

하천의 교각주위에는 국부세굴현상과 이에 따른 퇴적현상이 나타난다. 특히 교각주위에서의 국부세굴특성은 교량의 안전성과 관련하여 중요한 문제가 되므로 세굴의 크기를 감소하기 위한 대책이 필요하다. 교각주위에서의 국부세굴현상은 교각부 인근에 형성되는 말발굽형 와류가 중요한 역할을 하고 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 교각주위에서의 수류변화를 적절히 제어함으로서 세굴특성을 감소하고자 하는 연구가 행해져 오고 있으며, 교각에 원환(collars)을 설치하거나 조도를 증가시킴으로 세굴감소 대책을 제안하고 있다(Zarrati et al, 2006). 본 연구에서는 교각주위에서의 세굴을 감소하기 위해 원주교각의 표면을 파상형(riblet type)으로 하였으며, 파상형교각의 기본개념은 원주교각 전면에 나타나는 하강류를 파상형 원주내로 흡수하여 세굴작용을 감소시키고자 하는 것이다. 이같은 형식은 원주형 교각에 원환을 설치하는 방법이 대표적이며 하상과 교각사이 경계부에 수평방향의 단일 파형(single riblet type)을 설치한 Sato et al(1993)의 연구가 있다. 이들의 결과에 의하면 원형교각과 비교하여 초기 세굴감소 효과가 있음을 확인하였으나 시간경과에 따라 세굴이 점차 증가하고 있는 바 그 원인으로서 세굴이 진행되면서 하상면과 단일 파형과의 간격이 확대하여 단일파형내로의 흐름흡수 효과가 감소하기 때문으로 보고되었다. 따라서 여기서는 이같은 문제를 해결하기 위해 다단의 오목 및 볼록 파상형(concave/convex riblet type) 원주교각에 대한 국부세굴 특성을 검토하였다. 또한 원주형의 교각에서는 단일원주보다는 원주군으로 설치되는 경우가 대부분이며 이때 교각의 직경(D)에 대한 교각 사이 간격$(L_d)$의 비$(L_d/D)$에 따른 전면교각에서의 수류변화의 영향이 후면교각에 작용하여 상호 복합적인 흐름 및 세굴특성을 나타내므로 이와 같은 복렬형 원주군의 세굴특성을 파상형 원주교각에 적용하여 국부세굴의 크기 변화를 해석하였다. 따라서, 교각주위에서의 수류특성 및 세굴의 변동은 원주군 및 교각파상의 크기와 간격 등과 같은 구조물의 배열조건과 Froude 수, 수심 등의 수리학적 조건에 따라 달라지므로 이의 조건을 체계적으로 변화시켜 가면서 교각주위에서의 국부세굴 및 세굴 감소특성을 검토하였다. 실험결과 오목 및 볼록 파상형 원주 주위에서의 세굴크기는 원형원주와 비교하여 전체적으로 감소하는 것으로 확인되었으며 특히 오목형 $B/\acute{h}=3$에서는 세굴경감효과가 탁월하여 70%이상 감소하는 것으로 확인되었으나 볼록형 $B/\acute{h}=5$에서는 세굴촉진특성이 나타나고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서, 파상형 원주에서는 하강류나 와류를 파상형의 내부로 유도하여 세굴의 크기를 조절할 수 있는 최적의 파상이 존재하고 있는 것으로 예측되었다.

This study was conducted from July to December 2004, in order to find measures to improve the water quality and the function of pond ecosystems which are often negatively affected by phytoplankton and suspended particle matters. Most of the time, the management of ponds in Korea does not consider the ecological concepts such as self-purification and nutrient recycling. Instead, conventional methods depend on other factors such as fish farming and the function of fountains and waterfalls. Sustainability of pond ecosystems must be studied with the highest emphasis given to water quality. Water discharges of inflow and outflow as well as balance adjustment for different factors must be thoroughly studied. There is a great need for studies on sustainability because it can be realized through the horizontal or vertical balances of an ecosystem. Our current research offers useful information to the academia and public on maintaining sustainability in terms of structure and function of the pond.

Myocardial tagging technique such as spatial modulation of magnetization (SPAMM) allows the study of myocardial motion with high accuracy. However, the accuracy of the estimation of tag intersection can be affected by tagline spacing. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between tagline spacing of SPAMM image and tagging contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) in in-vivo study. Two healthy volunteers were undergone electrocardiographically triggered MR imaging with SPAMM-based tagging pulse sequence at a 1.5T MR scanner. Horizontally modulated stripe patterns were imposed with a range from 3.6 to 9.6 mm of tagline spacing. Images of the left ventricle(LV) wall were acquired at the mid-ventricle level during cardiac cycle with FE-EPI (TR/TE = 5.8/2.2 msec, FA= 10$^{\circ}$. Tagging CNR for each image was calculated with a software which developed in our group. During contraction, tagging CNR was more rapidly decreased in case of narrow tagline spacing than in case of wide tagline spacing. In the same heart phase, CNR was increased corresponding with tagline spacing. Especially, at the fully contracted heart phase, CNR was more rapidly increased than the other heart phases as a function of tagline spacing. The results indicated that the optimization of tagline spacing provides better tagging CNR in order to analyze the myocardial motion more accurately.

Recently, underground road construction is attracting attention because the ground transportation facilities in the urban area have reached the saturation level and traffic volume has increased and the air pollution has risen. Construction of underground roads is not only reduce trafficjam in downtown but also design the city eco-friendly, so existing roads as well as new roads go underground. It is essential to construct divergence tunnels that serve as IC (interchage) and JC (Junction) when constructing underpasses. Therefore, the analysis of the effect of the existing tunnel by the divergence tunnel should be considered. In this study, numerical analysis is performed to analyze the effect of existing tunnel on the excavation of the divergence tunnel. The divergence tunnels were set in 5 cases at $45^{\circ}$ intervals in the clockwise direction starting from the lower part of the existing tunnel. In each case, numerical analyses were carried out by using the DCM (Displacement Controlled Model) for applying the volume loss of 0.5%, 1.0% and 1.5%. As a result, when the volume loss increased, the effect on displacement, fracture range, and effect on stability increased as well. In addition, it was confirmed that the divergence tunnel located directly underneath is the weakest for the stability, and the case where the divergence tunnel is located diagonally rather than the vertical and horizontal direction is found to be vulnerable to displacement and lining destruction.
