기존 큰 지진을 대상으로 한 많은 연구결과들을 살펴보면, 큰 지진이 발생하기 전에 토양 속에 존재하는 다양한 인자들 중에 라돈(²²²Rn, 반감기=3.82일) 농도가 비정상적으로 증가하는 현상을 나타낸다. 이러한 결과들은 라돈발생의 경향성을 분석한다면, 지진발생에 대한 전조증상이나 예측이 가능함을 나타낸다. 본 연구에서는 포항지역을 중심으로 지진발생에 대한 전조증상이나 모니터링을 분석하기 위해 지하수 관측소에 설치된 라돈 관측기기에서 라돈 관측자료를 수집하고 이를 활용하는 연구를 수행하였다. 라돈 관측자료 기간은 2019년 11월부터 2020년 9월까지의 자료이며, 라돈인자 뿐만 아니라 지하수위, 강수량, 수온인자를 같이 분석하였으며, 동일기간 동안 발생한 진도 2 이상의 지진사례 6개(E1(M_L 3.5): 2019.12.30.; E2(M_L 3.2): 2020.01.30.; E3(M_L 2.4): 2020.02.09.; E4(M_L 2.7): 2020.02.16.; E5(M_L 2.8): 2020.05.27.; E6(M_L 2.1): 2020.09.22.)를 대상으로 하였다. 지진발생의 전조증상이 나타나는 지역을 분석하기 위해 Dobrovolsky radius values (Dobrovolsky et al., 1979)와 Harversine 관계식을 적용하였다. 적용결과, 시간적 분석에서 라돈의 증감 경향성이 지진발생의 전조증상과 유의미한 상관성이 있음을 확인하였으며, 공간적인 분석에서도 유의미하지는 않으나 상관성이 나타났다. 그 외 지하수위는 상관성이 어느 정도 나타났으나 강수량은 유의미한 결과를 나타내지는 않았다. 따라서 라돈을 활용한다면 지진발생의 전조증상을 시공간적으로 파악할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Despite some skeptical views on the possibility of earthquake prediction, observation and evaluation of precursory changes have been continued throughout the world. In Korea, the public concern on the earthquake prediction has been increased after 2016 $M_L5.8$ and 2017 $M_L5.4$ earthquakes occurred in Gyeongju and Pohang, the southeastern part in Korea, respectively. In this study, the abnormal increase of groundwater level was observed before the 2016 $M_L5.8$ Gyeongju earthquake in a borehole located in 52 km away from the epicenter. The well was installed in the Yangsan fault zone, and equipped for the earthquake surveillance. The abnormal change in the well would seem to be a precursor, considering the hydrogeological condition and the observations from previous studies. It is necessary to set up a specialized council to support and evaluate the earthquake prediction and related researches for the preparation of future earthquake hazards.

본 고에서는 품질향상 측면보다는 실험계획법 자체에 중점을 두고 이를 소개하고자 한다. 실험게획의 일차적 목적은 어느 의미에서는 모형화 즉 반응치에 미치는 각 인자의 주효과의 교호작용 관게를 규명하는 것이라고 볼 수 있으며 방법론에서 전조합실시법과 부분실시법으로 구분할 수 있는데 부분실시법의 목적은 어떻게 하면 경제적으로 시험횟수를 최소화하되 전조합실시법의 효과를 낼 수 있는가 하는 것이다. Taguchi의 실험계획은 직교배열을 이용한 부분실시법에 근거를 두고 있다.

In order to study the earthquake precursor in the Korean peninsula, long-term variations of chemical composition, radon-222, and water level were measured at depths (-60 m, -100 m) in the groundwater monitoring wells of the Daejeon and the Cheongwon area. The pH and electrical conductivity of groundwater in the monitoring wells showed some relationship with the Pohang earthquake. The ${HCO_3}^-$ and $Cl^-$ concentration of groundwater in the Daejeon and $Mg^{2+}$, $Cl^-$ and ${NO_3}^-$ in the Cheongwon showed some relation with the Pohang earthquake. However, it is not distinct to find the relationship between their variation and earthquake. The radon-222 concentration in Daejeon was observed a significant increase from a minimum of 162 Bq/L prior to the earthquake to 573 Bq/L right after the earthquake, that indicating a strong correlation with earthquakes. In the case of groundwater levels, it can not find some correlation between earthquakes and continuous decreasing trend in the monitoring wells of Daejeon and Cheongwon area. However, water level of a national groundwater observation well within 10 kilometers of Pohang epicenter was recorded as an abrupt drop right before the earthquake. Conclusively, although the location of monitoring wells is more than 180 kilometers apart from the epicenter of the Pohang earthquake, the radon gas in groundwater can be considered as a reliable candidate among earthquake precursors. The pH, electrical conductivity, ${HCO_3}^-$ and $Cl^-$ among hydrochemicals showed some correlation with earthquake should be monitored during a longer term to recognize distinctly as a precursor of earthquake.

This paper presents the numerical analysis of thread rolling. Firstly, the analysis is focused on the effective analysis conditions that guarantee the reliability of the analysis results. The investigated parameters are the number of teeth and the number of elements. Using the analysis results, the number of elements and the number of teeth that guarantee the results are found. And then, the effects of the process parameters such as tool shape and temperature on the thread rolling are investigated. The analysis is carried out using DEFORM-3D. The results show that the flank angle and crest round have an effect on the thread rolling load. It is also shown that temperature have significant effects on the effective strain distribution, rolling load, and crack initiation. The crack initiation is predicted using the Cockcroft-Latham criterion.

LED light sources have been known to have a long life and good energy efficiency compared to traditional light sources. Recently, headlamps using LED light sources have ensured the forward visibility and safe operation of high-speed rolling stock. However, assessing the lifespan of LED headlamps based on real test data is not easy because it depends on the multiple stress factors such as a fixed driving current, junction temperature, vibration and so on. Generally, LED headlamps have failed before their advertised life span mainly due to temperature. Thus, the performance assessment of a temperature control unit should be done before a life cycle test of LED headlamps. This study attempted to develop a prototype temperature control module for a lifecycle test system using a commercial LED headlight and verified the system through experiments.

Biomineralization has been explored for geochemical cycles and microbial tolerance mechanisms to metal toxicity. Here, we are introducing NanoFermentation which enables economic, environmentally friendly, requiring low input energy, and scalable manufacturing of nano-dimensioned magnetite. We are also focusing on controlling factors of crystallite size which can determine superparamagnetism and ferrimagnetism. Controlling factors are such as microbial species, temperature, incubation time, medium composition, substituted elements and their concentration, precursor type, reaction volume, precursor concentration density and their combinations. Crystallite size distribution of biomagnetite depends on the balance between nuclei generation and crystal growth. Biomineralization will elucidate elemental cycles on earth crust and microbial ecology as well as it will be applied to material sciences and devices via massive production of nanomaterials.

This paper summarizes the results of a numerical study conducted to analyze the effect of selected process parameters on material flow and thread profile in thread rolling of large diameter blanks. Based on the previous work where a plane strain mode was found to provide a reasonable approximation of the thread rolling process, the effect of varying thread form, friction factor, flow stress, and blank diameter on effective strain and thread height was analyzed using the finite element code DEFORM. This study show that effective strain for flank angle, that blank diameter had important effect on the as-rolled thread while flow stress, friction factor, and crest round of dies had significant impact on effective strain at the thread root and crest and load of thread rolling. While the rate of strain harding was found to have an effect on the crest profile, the results indicate that it is the primary factor responsible for seam formation in rolled threads.

전세계적의 지구온난화에 따른 기후변화 영향으로 기온상승, 강우증가, 해수면 상승 등에 자연재난의 발생이 증가하고 있다. 그 중 가뭄의 경우 전조증상, 발생원인, 발생기간 뿐만 아니라 대상범위나 피해범위도 불명확하다. 가뭄은 근본적으로 강우량의 부족으로 시작되며 농업, 생활, 공업 등의 전반적인 피해를 발생시킨다. 최근에는 기후변화의 영향으로 기온증가, 해수면상승, 극한호우, 메가가뭄 등 전세계적으로 다양한 자연재난이 빈번히 발생하고 있다. 가뭄은 태풍, 홍수, 지진 등의 자연재난 중에서도 가장 광범위한 피해를 유발시키는 재난이라고 할 수 있다. 미국의 National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration에서는 20세기의 관측된 가장 심각한 자연재난 중 하나로 가뭄이 선정되었으며 최근 기후변화에 따른 기온 및 강수의 증가는 가뭄피해의 직간접적인 영향으로 피해가 급증할 것이라고 하였다. 본 연구에서는 농업·생활·공업 가뭄에 대하여 피해액과 복구액에 대한 정량적 피해특성을 산정할 수 있는 추정식을 제안하고자 한다. 농업·생활·공업 가뭄에 대한 피해액은 다양한 인자들을 고려하며 매년 변화하는 물가를 반영하여 피해액의 추정식을 제안하였다. 또한, 복구액은 가뭄피해발생으로 발생될 수 있는 농업·생활·공업의 특성에 맞는 복구인자를 구성하였으며 피해에 대한 복구뿐만 아니라 인적, 물적 자원에 대한 인자도 포함하였다. 본 연구에서 산정된 농업·생활·공업 가뭄의 피해액 추정식의 경우 정량적 검증을 위해 1965년부터 2018년까지 국내에서 발생된 가뭄피해와를 대상으로 비교 분석하였다.

Accident likelihood is growing due to a correlation for gas and electricity installed in the area of dense energy consumption like traditional market and underground shopping center. In order to prevent and respond accident risks related to gas and electricity in this area, it should be monitored and predicted for factors of gas leak or electricity by developing safety management system. This study is about accident prediction model development considering fire risk factor related to gas accident. The temperature variation characteristic near a gas burner was analyzed. Also, accident prediction algorithm and related module were developed to prevent fire in the area of dense energy consumption.
