Large energy consumption is one of the main weaknesses of RO desalination. A new method is proposed to reduce the energy consumption of RO desalination which depends on the salinity of the feedwater. Low salinity feedwater can be obtained using groundwater wells which extracts both fresh groundwater and subsurface sea water. Subsurface feedwater is advantageous in overcoming other problems associated with surface seawater intakes. Salinities of groundwater depend on a number of factors. In this work a new simulation-optimization model is proposed to identify well locations and pumping rates with would provide the required design flow rate with the minimum salinity. When groundwater is developed in a coastal area, the saltwater wedge advances inland and may contaminate existing groundwater wells, which must be prevented. The model can protect existing wells while developing minimum salinity feedwater. Examples are provided to demonstrate the usage of the model.

Since the current database systems for managing geotechnical investigation results were limited by being described boring test result in point feature, it has been trouble for using other GIS data. Although there are some studies for spatial characteristics of subsurface modeling, it is rather lack of being interoperable with GIS, considering geotechnical engineering facts. This is reason for difficulty of practical uses. In this study, we has developed subsurface spatial information model through extracting needed geotechnical engineering data from geotechnical information DB. The developed geotechnical information clustering program(GEOCL) has made a cluster of boring formation(and formation ratio), classification of layer, and strength characteristics of subsurface. The interpolation of boring data has been achieved through zonal kriging method in the consideration of spatial distribution of created cluster. Finally, we make a subsurface spatial information model to integrate with digital elevation model, and visualize 3-dimensional model by subsurface spatial information viewing program(SSIVIEW). We expect to strengthen application capacity of developed model in subsurface interpretation and foundation design of construction works.

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to develope smoke detection using AI model for detecting the initial fire in underground utility tunnels using CCTV Method: To improve detection performance of smoke which is high irregular, a deep learning model for fire detection was trained to optimize smoke detection. Also, several approaches such as dataset cleansing and gradient exploding release were applied to enhance model, and compared with results of those. Result: Results show the proposed approaches can improve the model performance, and the final model has good prediction capability according to several indexes such as mAP. However, the final model has low false negative but high false positive capacities. Conclusion: The present model can apply to smoke detection in underground utility tunnel, fixing the defect by linking between the model and the utility tunnel control system.

본 연구는 고해상도의 충적층 지하수위 분포 조사를 위한 탄성파 굴절법 조사 방법을 소개하고 부여 군수리 충적층 일대에서 이 기법을 통해, 획득된 실제 충적층내의 지하수위 조사 결과를 제시한다. 기본적으로 본 연구에서 활용된 연속 굴절파 중합 방식은 동일 공심점(common mid point, 이후 CMP)을 갖는 굴절파 신호를 취합하고, 이격 거리(offset)에 대한 시간 지연 효과 보정을 수행한 후, 이들 신호를 중합하여, 충적층의 지하수위면에서 굴절된 신호를 보다 뚜렷이 부각시켜 정확한 지하수위 정보를 획득 하는 방식으로 일명 CMP 굴절법이라고도 한다. 이 방식은 독일에서 최초 개발되었으나(Gebrande, 1986; Orlowsky 등, 1998), 국내에서 적용되기는 본 연구가 최초이다. 이러한 탄성파의 굴절 신호를 사용하는 방식은 우선, 기존의 일반적인 고해상도 반사법 탐사에서 잡음으로 여겨졌던 굴절파 신호를 활용할 수 있으며, 고해상도 반사법 탐사와 동일한 배열과 운영 방식으로 획득된 자료에서 원하는 정보를 획득할 수 있으므로, 고해상도 반사법에 의한 기반암 조사와 함께 적용될 경우, 정화한 충적 대수층의 분포를 조사할 수 있게 하여주는 획기적인 조사 신기술이다. 개발된 기법은 부여 군수리 충적층 지역을 대상으로 적용되었으며, 그 결과 기존의 어떠한 지구물리 조사 방법보다 정확하고 분명한 지하수위 분포를 보여주었다.

자원하며 대개 지하자원을 생각하게 된다. 물론 지하자원(천연자원)이 가장 중요하다. 그러나 기후적 풍토적 자원이나 인적 문화적 자원 등 분류하면 여러가지 자원이 있다. 석유파동 이후 세계각국은 부족자원의 개발과 대책에 골몰하고 있다. 우리에게 어떠한 자원이 얼마 만큼 있으며 어떻게 활용 개발할수 있을 것인다. 과기총 자원개발위원회 홍준기 위원장은 과기총 창립 9주년 기념 특별강연회에서 자원과 과학기술에 대한 새 국면을 제시햇다. 특히 우리나라 사람들의 두뇌를 개발하고 활용한다면 무서운 potential(잠재력)을 갖인 자원국이 될 것이라고 강조했다. 그 전문의 계속을 소개한다.

지하구는 도시의 신경망이라 할 수 있는 통신, 전력, 상수도, 난방, 쓰레기 처리시설 등 도시 운용/관리를 위한 주요시설물을 안전하게 수용하고, 유지 관리하기 위한 시설로 IT기술을 이용하여 수용된 시설을 효과적으로 유지/관리하고, 재난으로부터 안전하게 보호함과 동시에 최소의 비용과 에너지로 수용된 시설물을 유지관리하기 위한 연구가 많이 진행되고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 지하구(공동구, 통신구, 전력구)의 운용 및 유지관리와 지하구에서 발생될 수 있는 각종 재난에 대응하기 위한 지하구 운용 및 유지관리에 대해 알아보고, 지하구 내부에 수용된 시설물을 효과적으로 유지관리하고 재난에 신속히 대응하기 위한 지하구 환경모니터링 시스템에 대해 기술 하고자 한다. 지하구 환경모니터링 시스템은 지하구 내부에는 전력, 상수도, 통신, 난방 등 다양한 시설물이 수용되어 있으며, 이러한 시설물의 부식, 고장 등으로부터 보호하기 위해 지하구내부의 환기시스템의 송풍기와 지하수와 기상재해로 인한 지하구 및 수용시설물의 침수를 막기 위한 양수펌프에 대해 실시간 상태모니터링 통해 송풍기 및 펌프의 고장여부를 판단하여 관리자에게 알림으로써 관리자가 신속하게 대응 할 수 있도록 하였다. 송풍기의 제어는 지하의 내부와 외부에 설치된 온/습도 센서를 통해 지하구 내부환경을 최적으로 유지할 수 있도록 함으로써 쾌적한 지하 내부환경 유지하고, 급/배기가 필요할 경우에만 송풍기를 가동함으로써 에너지를 절약 할 수 있으며, 화재, 침수 등에 대한 재난시 환풍기의 급/배기, 정지 등을 신속하게 제어할 수 있도록 하였다. 또한 지하구내부에서 발생된 재난을 유/무선을 이용하여 신속하게 지하구 주변의 장치(U-Pole 또는 통합컨트롤러)를 통해 경보를 전파함으로써 주변 시민들이 안전하게 대피할 수 있도록 하였다. 그리고 지하구 환경모니터링 시스템을 검증하기 위해 실제 지하구 및 실험실에 시스템 및 Test Board을 설치하여 운용시험을 실시 하였다.

An irregular cell-based numerical model was developed to analyze underground space flooding. In this model, the flow characteristics in underground space were computed by link-node system. Also, the model can simulate the underground flood flow related to the influence of stairs and wall-structures. Empirical discharge formula were introduced to analyze weir-type flow for shopping mall, and channel-type flow for subway railroad respectively. The simulated results matched in reasonable range compared with the observed depth. The dual-drainage inundation analysis model and the underground space flood analysis model were integrated using visual basic application of ArcGIS system. The developed model can help the decision support system of flood control authority for redesigning and constructing flood prevention structures and making the potential inundation zone, and establishing flood-mitigation measures.

Urban roads are not only congested with vehicles and pedestrians, but also have many pipelines buried to provide convenience for inhabitants. In addition, urban inhabitants live comfortably in buildings adjacent to the road for residence, business, commerce, rest and so on. Therefore, despite the high cost of land, urban underground buildings with high land use efficiency are constantly being built. Recently, the construction of underground buildings has caused social problems such as the collapse of surrounding roads and adjacent buildings. Institutional improvement is being actively carried out to improve this. In this study, a new type of MSRC diaphragm wall was developed and a study on the construction method of underground building was carried out. It is intended to secure the underground excavation safety of underground buildings in urban areas and effectively prevent land subsidence complaints. Also, a reasonable design method of MSRC diaphragm walls using the ultimate strength design method is presented through the flexural performance Experiment.

Most of public underground facilities are installed under the ground, thus it is difficult to recognize the accurate location even with the drawings. Studies are conducted to understand exact position of underground facilities using augmented reality. However, in those studies, establishing of additional 3D object model database is needed when AR system is used at field. Because most of public underground facility information are established as 2 dimensional. In this study, AR system is developed as mobile application which can use original 2D underground facility data to transfer 3D AR data automatically without additional 3D database establishment.

In this study, the usefulness of underground dam as a means for the sustainable development of groundwater, and its performance in the management of groundwater resources were analyzed. The fully integrated SWAT-MODFLOW was applied to the Ssangcheon watershed in Korea to evaluate the effectiveness of groundwater dam construction. After construction, the groundwater level raised in the upstream area of groundwater dam while lowered in the downstream area. Also, it is shown that the exchange rate of river-aquifer interactions increased in the upper area of the dam. Since the storage capacity of the aquifer largely increased in the upper area of the dam, the exploitable groundwater could be greatly increased as much. This study demonstrated that a groundwater dam was a very useful measure to increase the available storativity of groundwater aquifers. It also represented that the combined analysis using SWAT-MODFLOW was helpful for the design and opeation of groundwater dam in the Ssangcheon watershed.
