Geophysical survey was carried out to derive some information on the existence of near-surface anomalous body at Reung-Chi area in Kongju. Resistivity, seismic, magnetic and gravity method were applied. Geophysical survey that was applied was the electrical resistivity survey, seismic survey, magnetic survey, gravity survey. These surveys are analyzed to provide data of high resolution. As a result of analysis of resistivity survey, anomalies showing high resistivity anomaly than around appeared, and the one showing M-shape out of those explains the possibility that underground common or other underground structure or geographical anomalous zone could exist in the underground. As a result of analysis of seismic survey, it is clear that the low velocity layer is spread as far as the bottom of the underground. It is possible to presume that it is a phenomenon appearing while going through the underground space where it is lying in the underground. Area that shows unusual situation in interpretation of data on seismic waves are included into the area that once showed resistivity anomaly, the results of both seismic surveys come in accord. As a result of magnetic survey, a circle-shape of twin magnetic fields in the area where abnormalities are shown between electrical resistivity survey and seismic survey is appeared. Given the area of gravity survey, abnormalities whose density is different from the one around the bottom of the underground. As a result of analogizing the data of underground of the subsurface based on analysis of data from each survey, it was interpreted that anomalous zone exists commonly in the research areas.

Structures show the phehomena of deformation and lowering of function with time-lapse by artificial environments and changes of geotechnical conditions or accumulation of initial deformation elements. This study aims the structural assessment of cultural property, Chum-Sung-Dae, located in Kyeongju city, Korea. It was built about 1,300 years ago, and has undergone deformation and ground-subsidence with time-lapse. Non-destructive evaluation techniques were applied to the Chum-Sung-Dae, to protect it from survey Because of this reason, 3D precise laser scanning surveying system was applied to measure the exact size of Chum-Sung-Dae, displacement and declining angles. Geophysical exploration also was applied to study the subsurface distribution of geotechnical parameters or physical properties. Natural frequencies were measured from real and model of Chum-Sung-Dae to study the dynamic characteristics of vibration and/or earthquake load and stiffness of structures.

A content based pub/sub (Publish/subscribe) services at the peer-to-peer network has the requirements about how to distribute contents information of subscriber and to delivery the events efficiently. For satisfying the requirements, a DHT(Distributed Hash Table) based pub/sub overlay networking and tree type topology based network construction using filter technique have been proposed. The DHT based technique is suitable for topic based pub/sub service but it's not good contents based service that has the variable requirements. And also filter based tree topology networking is not efficient at the environment where the user requirements are distributed. In this paper we propose the R-Tree algorithm based pub/sub overlay network construction method. The proposed scheme provides cost effective event delivery method by mapping user requirement to multi-dimension and hierarchical grouping of the requirements. It is verified by simulation at the variable environment of user requirements and events.

Recently, the number of systems which utilize wireless power transmission to a receiving module in a short distance is increasing. For efficient use of receiving space, coils are wound around the ferrite core to produce electromotive force(emf) in suppling power by wireless transmission. This paper analyzed the magnetic flux density distribution in the ferrite core in magnetic field environment which is uniformly oriented along to a single axis at 125kHz. For numerical analysis, Ansoft Maxwell which is applying the FEM(Finite Element Method) method was used. We studied the variations of the gathered magnetic fluxes to the changes of the relative permeabilities of the ferrite cores. Also we calculated the magnetic flux variation by shaving the ferrite core off for the groove of coil winding. Results showed that using a small ferrite core in magnetic field at 100kHz band can increase the amount of magnetic flux $3{\sim}4 times$ than without the core. The magnetic flux decreased 23% by shaving the core 0.5 mm on the periphery of 4.75 mm radius core with the relative permeability 800.

This study aims at assessing the quality of the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer 2 (AMSR2) soil moisture products onboard GCOM-W1 satellite based on Land Parameter Retrieval Model (LPRM) soil moisture retrieval algorithm with field measurements in South Korea from March to September, 2014. Results of mean bias and root mean square error between AMSR2 LPRM soil moisture products (X-band) and ground measurements showed reasonable value of 0.03 and 0.16. Also, the maximum of the Pearson correlation coefficients was 0.67, which showed good agreement in terms of temporal variability with ground measurements. By comparing AMSR2 soil moisture with in-situ measurement according to the overpass time and band frequency, X-band products on the ascending time outperformed than those of C1-band and C2-band. Furthermore, this study offers an insight into the applicability of the AMSR2 soil moisture products for monitoring various natural disasters at a large scale such as drought and flood.

This study analyzed cross-sectional variations in residual current and strengths of stratification by observing cross-sectional velocity and salinity during spring tide and neap tide, respectively, for continuous 13-hour periods at 2 observation lines at northern and southern end of Seokmo Channel, which is located west of Ganghwado. Salinity distribution of channel depends on not only neap and spring tide but also impact of salinity. The residual current component was obtained by removing $M_2$ and $M_4$ tidal components that were extracted using the least squares method on 13-hour velocity component. Cross-section of residual velocity at northern and southern end of Seokmo Channel exhibited southward residual components at channel's surface layer, but northward residual current was observed at channel's bottom layer, clearly showing a 2-layer tidal circulation between surface and bottom layers. The variation in location of appearing northward residual current according to changes in spring and neap tidal cycle and its correlation with stratification were analyzed using the Richardson number and Simpsonhunter index. At northern and southern end of Seokmo Channel, northward residual current appears in the location where Richardson number is large, Simpson-hunter index appears as a value greater than 4.

Changes in the benthic communities have been studied to investigate the environmental effects before and after the construction of Shihwa Dike in the West coast of Korea. It is suggested that sequential changes in macrofaunal assemblages progressed in two sucressional directions. In the Shihwa lake under the influence of organic enrichment. First, the appearance of 'azoic tone' or 'grossly polluted zone' developed in the area of less than 6 m in depth resulted from the severe dissolved oxygen depletion due to the eutrophication from the increased organic loading. Second, the 'polluted zone' characterized by the proliferation of the opportunistic species in organically enriched area, was found in the vicinity of the industrial discharges and nearby fluvial inputs. This benthic community succession in the Shihwa lake seemed to be caused by the various ecological events such as an eutrophication in this organically enriched environment after construction of the dike and other physico-chemical parameters like salinity and dissolved oxygen in the bottom water, which may be influenced by the irregular surface water discharge and dilution by outer seawater inflow through the water gate of the dike. On the other hand, the benthic communities in the outside of the dike showed that the species richness was more than doubled and the abundance increased almost seven times more than that before the dike construction. This may be a typical characteristics of the initial phase in benthic eutrophication, suggesting that an increased organic input area may have been reponsible for this faunal change in the study area.

Even though PM₁₀ in ambient air has been steadily reduced, the perception of it has been deteriorated. Forthatreason, first, it can still be mentioned the annual average concentration of PM₁₀ exceeding WHO standards, second, an increase in the number of high concentration days of PM₁₀, and third, lack of consideration for differences in causes and phenomena of PM₁₀ by regions. Therefore, this study was aimed to suggest management types for PM₁₀ in ambient air by clustering 69 cities based on the trends and current levels of PM₁₀. In addition, we proposed complementary measures such as the green infrastructure, ventilation corridors and adaptation measures (limit of exposure) for type III (distribution in the central inner region) and IV (metropolitan city, south-east coast region) where improvement of PM₁₀ was insufficient. Although this study did not consider the cause of PM₁₀ together, there is a significance that the scientific basis for responding to the near future is conducted based on past trends of PM₁₀.

Monte Carlo simulations are widely used as the most accurate technique for dose calculation in radiation therapy. In this paper, the GATE6(Geant4 Application for Tomographic Emission ver.6) code was employed to calculate the dosimetric performance of the photon beams from a linear accelerator(LINAC). The treatment head of a Varian 21EX Clinac was modeled including the major geometric structures within the beam path such as a target, a primary collimator, a flattening filter, a ion chamber, and jaws. The 6 MV photon spectra were characterized in a standard $10{\times}10cm^2$ field at 100 cm source-to-surface distance(SSD) and subsequent dose estimations were made in a water phantom. The measurements of percentage depth dose and dose profiles were performed with 3D water phantom and the simulated data was compared to measured reference data. The simulated results agreed very well with the measured data. It has been found that the GATE6 code is an effective tool for dose optimization in radiotherapy applications.
