To increase the throughput of data transmission in burst-mode TDMA communication systems and also to get a good BER performance at the same time, it is essential to rapidly acquire the carrier while keeping the desirable tracking performance. To achieve this goal, in this paper, a new decision-directed carrier recovery algorithm is presented. The proposed scheme does not incorporate the PLL and suppress the Gaussian random process of input noise by the pre-stage low pass filter so as to get both the fast acquisition and a good performance. Through computer simulations, the performance of the scheme is analyzed with respect to the acquisition time and bit error rate. The cycle slip in the proposed scheme is seldom observed at very low SNR environment in contrast to the previous proposed one. Because of this merit, it is not required to do the differential encoding and decoding in the proposed scheme.

The causes of residual stress in an injection molded part are high temperature variation and shear stress during molding process. Chemical cracking test is one of the methods of measuring residual stress and cracks are developed according to the degree of residual stress. In this study, the relationship between chemical cracking and exerted stress have been investigated. Deformation jig was designed and used to give a stress through deformation in a specimen. Specimens were molded by a hot press using polycarbonate (PC) and annealed to remove residual stresses in the specimens. Specimens were fixed in the deformation jig and immersed into the solvent to create cracks in the specimens. Solvents were prepared by using tetrahydrofuran and methyl alcohol. As stress accordance with the deformation in the specimen increased, the frequency and density of cracks in the specimen also increased. The results of this study can be used for the measurement of residual stress quantitatively in an injection molded PC product using a chemical cracking method.

Laboratory tests are generally used to determine the input parameters for the selected constitutive models controlling various stress and drainage conditions, but have disadvantages in that the tests are performed on the samples obtained from the bore hole which are prone to be disturbed by various factors such as the tube penetrations, sample preparations and storage. To overcome these disadvantages, it is necessary to understand the effect of disturbance on the stiffness of the sample, especially the normally consolidated clays which are generally considered as soft clays. Therefore, in this study triaxial tests are performed on the normally consolidated kaolinite to evaluate the sample disturbance effects on the stiffness and to determine the field representative input parameters. The stress path results show that the shear and coupling modulus degradation patterns with strain are affected seriously by the disturbance. However, the strengths of the normally consolidated kaolinite are little influenced by the disturbance.

This paper proposes a new classification algorithm using characteristic and structural information of printed Hanja as preliminary stages of Hanja-character recognition. Hanja is difficult for not only recognition but classification as many character and complicated structure. In this paper, to solve thie problem, extracted common subpattern in classified pattern after processing type classification fot Hanja pattern. First, we extracted subpattern, after we process preprecessing about input of character pattern, extracting directional segment, labeling on 4-directional pattern and 12 type classified using structural information based on the subpattern existing region of character pattern. Though the experiment, this study obtained that classified rate of Hanja is 93.07% on 1800 character of educational Hanja and 90.12% on 4888 character of KS C5601 standard TRIGEM LBP Hanja font and saw that as extracting subpattern at classified data was this paper possibly applied to the recognition.

Equivalent linear analysis is widely used in estimating local seismic site effects. The soil behavior in the analysis is often assumed to be rate-independent and is not influenced by the seismic loading frequency. Laboratory results, however, indicate that cohesive soil behavior is greatly influenced by the loading frequency. A new equivalent linear analysis method that accounts for the loading frequency dependent soil behavior is developed and used to perform a series of one dimensional site response analyses. Results indicate that while frequency dependent shear modulus has limited influence on computed site response, frequency dependent soil damping greatly filters out high frequency components of the ground motion and thus results in lower response.

A series of field pull-out tests were carried out to investigate the behaviour of multi-pressurized soil nails. Ten soil nails were constructed in weathered soil and then, subjected to pull-out loads. The test results showed that the ultimate pull-out resistances of soil nails constructed with high pressure were about 42~142% larger than those obtained from conventional soil nails. The deduced interface shear strength at the ground-grout interface was 71 kPa for conventional soil nails, while higher shear strength of 95~166 kPa was obtained for pressurized nails. The diameter of grouted borehole increased by about 12~27% compared to ordinary soil nails under low pressure. Also, the predicted value by the cavity expansion theory is in good agreement with the measured expanded radius of grout under injection pressure by field pull-out tests.

하천 내 오염물질 유입원은 하수처리장과 같이 농도를 예측 가능한 점오염원이 일반적이지만, 수질오염사고와 같이 다량의 유해물질이 일시에 하천에 유입되는 경우도 발생하곤 한다. 특히 오염물질 유입지점과 취수장이 인접한 경우, 오염물질 혼합해석에 대한 이해가 오염사고 대응 및 수질 관리 측면에서 매우 중요하다. 자연하천에서는 사행에 따른 유속 구조의 불균일성 등으로 인하여 오염물질의 이송 및 분산 과정은 매우 복잡하게 나타난다. 이러한 하천의 지형적, 수리학적 특성이 오염물질의 혼합 거동에 미치는 영향을 정확하게 모의하기 위해서는 3차원 수치모형을 적용해야 한다. 그러나 대부분의 하천은 하폭 대 수심비가 매우 크기 때문에 2차원 이송-분산 방정식을 지배방정식으로 채택하는 2차원 수치 모형이 널리 사용되어왔다. 2차원 이송-분산 방정식의 해석결과는 입력된 종, 횡 분산계수의 값에 따라 변화하기 때문에 정확한 혼합해석을 위해 분산계수의 결정이 매우 중요하다. 과거 연구에서는 횡 분산계수의 결정을 위해 기본 수리량을 이용한 경험식을 활용하여 계산한 바 있다. 종 분산계수의 경우에는 경험식의 산정에 필요한 충분한 실험 자료가 축적되어 있지 않아 이상적 흐름 상태를 가정하여 유도된 Elder의 이론식(Elder, 1959)을 사용해왔다. 하지만 많은 연구에서 이러한 Elder의 이론식이 종 분산계수를 과소산정 할 우려가 있다고 제시했다. 따라서 하천의 전단류 분산특성을 나타낼 수 있는 데이터 확보를 통해 종 분산계수의 경험식 산정 및 횡 분산계수의 정확도 향상이 필요한 상황이다. 본 연구에서는 기존 선행 연구에서 수행된 2차원 추적자실험 데이터의 확장을 위해 오버샘플링 기법을 적용하였으며, 이를 통한 머신러닝을 통한 분산계수 산정 가능성을 분석하고자 한다. 부족한 추적자 실험 데이터를 확장하기 위해 오버샘플링 기법 중 SMOTE 기법을 활용했다. 오버샘플링 기법을 이용하여 생산된 데이터의 신뢰성을 검증하였으며, 추후 머신러닝을 이용한 2차원 종, 횡 분산계수 산정에 대한 활용 가능성을 분석했다.

Unlike NATM tunnels, Shield TBM tunnels have split linings. Therefore, the stress distribution of the lining is different even if the lining is under the same load. Representative methods for analyzing the stress generated in lining in Shield TBM tunnels include Non-joint Mode that does not consider connections and a 2-ring beam-spring model that considers ring-to-ring joints and segment connections. This study is an analysis method by Break-joint Mode. However, we do not consider the structural role of segment lining connections. The effectiveness of the modeling is verified by analyzing behavioral characteristics against vibration loads by modeling with segment connection interfaces to which vertical stiffness and shear stiffness, which are friction components, are applied. Unlike the Non-joint mode, where the greatest stress occurs on the crown for static loads such as earth pressure, the stress distribution caused by contact between segment lining and friction stiffness produced the smallest stress in the crown key segment where segment connections were concentrated. The stress distribution was clearly distinguished based on segment connections. The results of static analysis by earth pressure, etc., produced up to seven times the stress generated in Non-joint mode compared to the stress generated by Break-joint Mode. This result is consistent with the stress distribution pattern of the 2-ring beam-spring model. However, as for the stress value for the train vibration load, the stress of Break-joint Mode was greater than that of Non-joint mode. This is a different result from the static mechanics concept that a segment ring consisting of a combination of short members is integrated in the circumferential direction, resulting in a smaller stress than Non-joint mode with a relatively longer member length.

This study presents the research results and current status of the DECOVALEX-2019 project Task B. Task B named 'Fault slip modelling' is aiming at developing a numerical method to simulate the coupled hydro-mechanical behavior of fault, including slip or reactivation, induced by water injection. The first research step of Task B is a benchmark simulation which is designed for the modelling teams to familiarize themselves with the problem and to set up their own codes to reproduce the hydro-mechanical coupling between the fault hydraulic transmissivity and the mechanically-induced displacement. We reproduced the coupled hydro-mechanical process of fault slip using TOUGH-FLAC simulator. The fluid flow along a fault was modelled with solid elements and governed by Darcy's law with the cubic law in TOUGH2, whereas the mechanical behavior of a single fault was represented by creating interface elements between two separating rock blocks in FLAC3D. A methodology to formulate the hydro-mechanical coupling relations of two different hydraulic aperture models and link the solid element of TOUGH2 and the interface element of FLAC3D was suggested. In addition, we developed a coupling module to update the changes in geometric features (mesh) and hydrological properties of fault caused by water injection at every calculation step for TOUGH-FLAC simulator. Then, the transient responses of the fault, including elastic deformation, reactivation, progressive evolutions of pathway, pressure distribution and water injection rate, to stepwise pressurization were examined during the simulations. The results of the simulations suggest that the developed model can provide a reasonable prediction of the hydro-mechanical behavior related to fault reactivation. The numerical model will be enhanced by continuing collaboration and interaction with other research teams of DECOLVAEX-2019 Task B and validated using the field data from fault activation experiments in a further study.

Recently, the interests in structural monitoring of civil infrastructures are increased. Especially, as the civil infrastructures such as bridges, tunnels and buildings become large-scale, it is necessary to monitor and maintain the safety state of the structures, which requires smart systems that can supply long-term monitoring during the service time of the structures. In this paper, we investigated the possibilities of fiber optic sensor application to the various structures. We investigate the possibility of using fiber optic Bragg grating sensors to joint structure. The sensors show good response to the structural behavior of the joint while electric gauges lack of sensitivity, durability and long term stability for continuous monitoring. We also apply fiber optic structural monitoring to the composite repaired concrete beam structure. Peel-out effects is detected with optical fiber Bragg grating sensors and the strain difference between main structure and repaired carbon sheets is observed when they separate each other. The real field test was performed to verify the behaviors of fiber Bragg grating sensors attached to the containment structure in Uljin nuclear power plant in Korea as a part of structural integrity test which demonstrates that the structural response of the non-prototype primary containment structures. The optical fiber Bragg grating sensor smart system which is the probable means for long term assessments can be applicable to monitoring of structural members in various civil infrastructures.
