As one of solutions to pursue the efficient use of spectrum resource, we proposed the methodology for the co-channel multi-site radar operations with the synchronous GPS clock. The proposed algorithm, based on a quasi orthogonal property, find a candidate set of the time shifted linear frequency modulation(TSLFM) signals with the minimum acceptable level of the correlation among selected TSLFM signals. To check suggested algorithm, numerical analysis for several radars operating in the same channel with a sawtooth waveform has been performed by using range-Doppler processing for the given system parameters, and computational results are presented and examined in terms of range profile and doppler shift for a targets with velocity and distance. Simulated results have a good agreement with assumed target distance and its velocity, within the error of resolution.

This research is based on the analysis of in-depth interviews of designers who participated in the design of the Yeonnam-dong section, which was completed in 2016. The case study site has received many domestic and foreign awards and is receiving very positive reviews from actual users. 53 concepts were derived from the open coding of the ground theory methodology. Thirty-four higher categories incorporated the concepts and 18 higher categories that reintegrated them. Later, the six categories of the ground theory were interpreted as the paradigm, and it was determined that the aspects of 'will of client' and 'work efficiency', 'site resources' and 'field manager's specialty' were the categories that had the greatest positive impact on the park construction. The key category of this park's construction was interpreted as "a park-construction model with active empathy and communication." The results of the study and are linked to the following research proposals. First, the need to improve the trust between the client and the landscape designer and the need to improve the customary administrative procedures; second, the importance of the input of landscape experts into the park construction process; third, the importance of all efforts to develop the design; fourth, the importance of on-site circular resources and landscape preservation; and fifth active social participation to increase the opportunity. This study, which seeks to grasp the facts that existed behind the park's construction, which received excellent internal and external evaluations, and has a qualitative, objective and structural interpretation of the social network related to the park's construction, in contrast to the conventional quantitative post-evaluation. It is expected that the administration and system improvements related to landscaping will be further improved through the continuation of in-depth post-evaluation studies.

In suspension bridges, hanger cables are the main load-supporting members. The tension of the hanger cables of a suspension bridge is a very important parameter for assessing the integrity and safety of the bridge. In general, indirect methods are used to measure the tension of the hanger cables of a suspension bridge in traffic use. A representative indirect method is the vibration method, which extracts modal frequencies from the cables' responses and then measures the cable tension using the cables' geometric conditions and the modal frequencies. In this study, the image processing technique is applied to facilitate the estimation of the dynamic responses of the cables using the image signal, for which a portable digital camcorder was used due to its convenience and cost-efficiency. Ambient vibration tests were conducted on a suspension bridge in traffic use to verify the validity of the back analysis method, which can estimate the tension of remote hanger cables using the modal frequencies as a parameter. In addition, the tension estimated through back analysis method, which was conducted to minimize the difference between the modal frequencies calculated using finite element analysis of the hanger cables and the measured modal frequencies, was compared with that measured using the vibration method.

A theoretical study on oxygen flow is fundamental to comprehend the practical production of an oxygen respirator and its stability. In this study, an orifice-type pressure-reducing component was designed for the newly developed oxygen respirator, using the commercial CFD tool, COMSOL Multiphysics, which increases its operational time compared to the existing component. The orifice was optimized by changing the length by 3, 6, and 9 mm within the entire computational domain of the oxygen respirator. Based on an oxygen flow rate of 0.028 kg/s, the oxygen respirator equipped with the newly developed orifice satisfied the flow rate within 33% for a respirator inlet pressure of 300 bar, and within 32.7% for 50, 75, and 100 bar. In terms of component manufacturing, the orifice length was selected as 3 mm, which removes additional changes to the existing component.

We propose a multi-state model to analyze semi-competing risks data with interval-censored or missing intermediate events. This model is an extension of the three states of the illness-death model: healthy, disease, and dead. The 'diseased' state can be considered as the intermediate event. Two more states are added into the illness-death model to incorporate the missing events, which are caused by a loss of follow-up before the end of a study. One of them is a state of the lost-to-follow-up (LTF), and the other is an unobservable state that represents an intermediate event experienced after the occurrence of LTF. Given covariates, we employ the Lin and Ying additive hazards model with log-normal frailty and construct a conditional likelihood to estimate transition intensities between states in the multi-state model. A marginalization of the full likelihood is completed using adaptive importance sampling, and the optimal solution of the regression parameters is achieved through an iterative quasi-Newton algorithm. Simulation studies are performed to investigate the finite-sample performance of the proposed estimation method in terms of empirical coverage probability of true regression parameters. Our proposed method is also illustrated with a dataset adapted from Helmer et al. (2001).

The lunar surface temperature is important as a environmental parameter for the thermal design of the lunar exploration vehicles such as orbital spacecraft, lander, and rovers. In this study, the temperature is numerically predicted through a simplified lumped system model for the energy conservation. The physical values required for the analysis of the energy equation are derived by considering the geometric shape, and the values presented in the previous research results. The areal specific heat, which is the most important thermo-physical property of the lumped system model, was extracted from the temperature measurements by the Diviner loaded on the LRO, and the value was predicted by calibration of the analytical model to the measurements. The predicted temperature distribution obtained through numerical integration has sufficient accuracy to be applied to the thermal design of the lunar exploration vehicles.

The aeroelastic stability analysis of composite bearingless rotors is investigated using a large deflection beam theory in hover. The bearingless rotor configuration consists of a single flexbeam with a wrap-around type torque tube and the pitch links located at the leading edge and trailing edge of the torque tube. The outboard main blade, flexbeam and torque tube are all assumed to be an elastic beam undergoing flap bending, lead-lag bending, elastic twist and axial deflections, which are discretized into beam finite elements. For the analysis of composite bearingless rotors, flexbeam is assumed to be a rectangular section made of laminate. Two-dimensional quasi-steady strip theory is used for aerodynamic computation. The finite element equations of motion for beams are obtained from Hamilton's principle. The p-k method is used to determine aeroelastic stability boundary. Numerical results are presented for selected bearingless rotor configurations based on the lay-up of laminae in the flexbeam and pitch links location. A systematic study is made to identify the importance of the stiffness coupling terms on aeroelastic stability for various fiber orientation and for different configuration.

최근 들어, 지구온난화에 따른 기후변화로 인해 홍수와 가뭄 등과 같은 자연재해가 과거에 비해 빈번히 발생되고 있으며 그로인한 수많은 인명 및 재산피해가 나타나고 있다. 특히, 가뭄의 경우 홍수 등 여타의 수문학적 재해에 비해 서서히 장기간에 걸쳐 피해를 유발하고 있는데 미국해양기상청(NOAA)에서 선정한 20세기 최대의 자연재해 중 상위 5위안에 4개의 가뭄이 기록될 정도로 그 피해가 심각한 것으로 나타나고 있다. 우리나라 역시 5년에 한번 꼴로 심한가뭄이 발생하는 등 가뭄의 발생주기가 점차 짧아지고 있어 이에 대한 대비가 필요한 실정이다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 가뭄지수를 이용한 통계학적 분석을 통해 과거가뭄사상을 정량적으로 평가하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 관측자료의 신뢰성이 확보되어 있는 기상청 산하 59개 기상관측소를 대상으로 하였으며 1976~2010년(35년)의 자료를 이용하여 SPI(6)를 산정하였다. 분석방법으로는 한반도 가뭄의 발생빈도를 추정하기 위하여 Drought Spell 분석을 실시하였으며 한반도를 대상으로 극심한 가뭄에 대한 가뭄우심지역을 평가하기 위하여 지속기간별 가뭄빈도해석을 통해 SDF 곡선을 작성하고 이를 이용하여 가뭄우심도(Drought Potential Hazard Map)를 작성하였다. 가뭄단계별 발생빈도를 분석한 결과, 금강, 낙동강, 섬진강유역에서 심한가뭄과 극한가뭄단계의 발생빈도가 높게 나타났으며 가뭄빈도해석을 통해 작성된 SDF 곡선에서도 한강유역에 위치한 서울관측소에 비해 금강, 낙동강, 섬진강 유역에 위치한 대전, 대구, 광주 관측소의 재현기간별 가뭄심도가 낮게 나타났다. 가뭄빈도해석을 통해 작성된 가뭄우심도에서는 한강 유역과 낙동강 유역의 상류에 비해 금강, 섬진강, 영산강 유역이 가뭄에 취약한 지역으로 분석되어 가뭄단계별 발생빈도와 유사한 결과를 나타내었다. 또한, 동일한 재현기간에서 지속기간이 길어질수록 가뭄의 심도가 감소하는 것으로 분석되었다. 유역별 가뭄심도를 비교한 결과에서는 재현기간 200년 빈도, 지속기간 3개월의 가뭄심도의 경우, 섬진강 유역(-2.89)에서 한강(-2.13), 낙동강(-2.72), 금강(-2.45), 영산강(-2.73)유역에 더욱 극심한 가뭄을 나타내고 있었으며 지속기간 6개월의 가뭄심도에서도 동일한 결과를 나타내었다.

The Zienkiewicz-Zhu(Z/Z) error estimate is slightly modified for the hierarchical p-refinement, and is then applied to L-shaped plates subjected to bending to demonstrate its effectiveness. An adaptive procedure in finite element analysis is presented by p-refinement of meshes in conjunction with a posteriori error estimator that is based on the superconvergent patch recovery(SPR) technique. The modified Z/Z error estimate p-refinement is different from the conventional approach because the high order shape functions based on integrals of Legendre polynomials are used to interpolate displacements within an element, on the other hand, the same order of basis function based on Pascal's triangle tree is also used to interpolate recovered stresses. The least-square method is used to fit a polynomial to the stresses computed at the sampling points. The strategy of finding a nearly optimal distribution of polynomial degrees on a fixed finite element mesh is discussed such that a particular element has to be refined automatically to obtain an acceptable level of accuracy by increasing p-levels non-uniformly or selectively. It is noted that the error decreases rapidly with an increase in the number of degrees of freedom and the sequences of p-distributions obtained by the proposed error indicator closely follow the optimal trajectory.
