With the worldwide trend of controlling the utilization fossil fuels inducing global climate change, many efforts will have to be made on securing stable supply of the energy due to UNFCCC. Tidal currents are a concentrated form of gravitational energy. Tidal current resource is significant, but limited locations. Technical and economic feasibility demonstration is the next needed step in the technology development process. So, we investigated overview of tidal in-stream energy in the sea near Wando, and then analytically estimated tidal energy resources and annual energy output of TECS arrays.

The optimum blasting pattern to excavate a quarry efficiently and economically can be determined based on the minimum production cost which is generally estimated according to rock fragmentation. Therefore it is a critical problem to predict fragment size distribution of blasted rocks over an entire quarry. By comparing various prediction models, it can be ascertained that the result obtained from Kuz-Ram model relatively coincides with that of field measurements. Kuz-Ram model uses the concept of rock factor to signify conditions of rock mass such as block size, rock jointing, strength and others. For the evaluation of total production cost, it is imperative to estimate 3-D spatial distribution of rock factor for the entire quarry. In this study, a sequential indicator simulation technique is adopted for estimation of spatial distribution of rock factor due to its higher reproducibility of spatial variability and distribution models than Kriging methods. Further, this can reduce the uncertainty of predictor using distribution information of sample data The entire quarry is classified into three types of rock mass and optimum blasting pattern is proposed for each type based on 3-D spatial distribution of rock factor. In addition, plane maps of rock factor distribution for each ground levels is provided to estimate production costs for each process and to make a plan for an optimum blasting pattern.

As Korea is rapidly becoming an IT powerhouse in the short term, various side effects such as cyber violence, personal information leakage and cyber terrorism are emerging as new social problems. Especially, the seriousness of leakage of personal information, which is the basis of safe cyber life, has been highlighted all over the world. In this regard, it is necessary to estimate the amount of the damage cost due to the leakage of personal information. In this study, we propose four evaluation methods to calculate the cost of damages due to personal information leakage according to average real transactions value, personally recognized value, compensation amount basis, and comparison to similar countries. We analyzed data from 2007 to 2016 to collect personal information leakage cases for 10 years and estimated the cost of damages. The number of cases used in the estimation is 65, and the total number of personal information leakage is about 430 million. The estimated cost of personal information leakage in 2016 was estimated to be at least KRW 7.4 billion, up to KRW 220 billion, and the 10 year average was estimated at from KRW 10.7 billion to KRW 307 billion per year. Also, we could find out the singularity that the estimated damage due to personal information leakage increases every three years. In the future, this study will be able to provide an index that can measure the damage cost caused by the leakage of personal information more accurately, and it can be used as an index of measures to reduce the damage cost due to personal information leakage.

In Korea, harbor tranquility is generally estimated by using both methods of investigating harbor calmness under abnormal wave condition and evaluating the harbor serviceability. The efficiency of the former method is questionable as the tranquility of a harbor is judged by a wave height criterion that is arbitrarily determined without rational basis. In case of the latter method, the utilization rate of a harbor is estimated by using the exceedance probability of wave height or the distribution of wave heights and periods that is obtained from longterm measured or hindcasted wave data. Use of long-term data is desirable in order to guarantee the accuracy of the exceedance probability. Meanwhile, the criterion for determining maximum allowable wave height for cargo handling works is too simple and has limitations for being used in an actual field condition. Problems of existing method for estimating harbor tranquility were verified by the wave observation data in Busan New Port. And the importance of the field observation data was emphasized. It is necessary to perform long-term wave monitoring inside and outside of major ports in Korea in order to establish more advanced standard for evaluating harbor tranquility based on such observed wave data.

Recently, as the strength of winds and waves increases due to the climate change, abnormal waves such as swells have been also increased, which results in the increase of downtime events of loading/unloading in a harbour. To reduce the downtime events, breakwaters were constructed in a harbour to improve the tranquility. However, it is also important and useful for efficient port operation by predicting accurately and also quickly the downtime events when the harbour operation is in a limiting condition. In this study, numerical simulations were carried out to calculate the wave conditions based on the forecasted wind data in offshore area/outside harbour and also the long-term observation was carried out to obtain the wave data in a harbour. A forecasting method was designed using an auto-regressive (AR) and artificial neural networks (ANN) models in order to establish the relationship between the wave conditions calculated by wave model (SWAN) in offshore area and observed ones in a harbour. To evaluate the applicability of the proposed method, this method was applied to predict wave heights in a harbour and to forecast the downtime events in Pohang New Harbour with highly complex topography were compared. From the verification study, it was observed that the ANN model was more accurate than the AR model.

The purpose of this study is to establish evaluation model that can explain marginal effects of baseball players of Korean Baseball Organization (KBO) on their team winnings in terms of productivity. We proposed econometric model with using variables that are provided from official homepage of KBO to overcome the complexity of mainly used productivity index: wins above replacement (WAR). Also, compare to the previous studies such as Scully(1974) or Krautmann(1999) that using limited indices of baseball stats, this study included 61 indices that are provided from official homepage of KBO. We estimated regression based WAR(RBWAR) by conducting panel regression with each team's statistics data of 2002 to 2014. As a results, RBWAR shows 0.869 correlation coefficient for batters and 0.882 for pitchers with WAR in 2014 that can be concluded that two indices shows similar results. From the results of estimation, we analyze the relationship between productivity and actual contract of free agent players in 2015 and it showed that teams have contracted reasonably.

The submarine cable for Yongsu wave power plant was cut in 2014 winter. This study investigated the probability of high-wave occurrence exceeding the 50-year return period and the underestimation of armor unit weight used to protect the cable. The observation data from KMA buoy and the hindcast wave data were reviewed to determine the return period of wave height during the winter. In order to investigate the armor unit weight of cable-protection, we calculated the required weight of armor unit using not only Design Standard for Harbor and Fishery Port, but also the previous researches for the wave with large incident angle. As a result, it appeared that the high wave exceeding the 50-year return period did not occur during the winter of 2014 and the armor unit weight of the cable protection was not sufficient to sustain the obliquely incident wave, which induced the cable protection failure.

For determination of the design wves at the seven selected sites in the South Sea, a method of hindcasting the past annual largest significant waves from the records of both the wind speed at the nearby weather stations and the weather charts of typhoons are utilized. The design significant waves in deep water are determined through the extremal probability analysis for three major wave directions(SW, S, SE) at each site from the annual extremal series of wave heights. Design significant wave heights with the return period of 100 years ranged between 4.6m and 8.8m with the wave period ranging between 8.2 seconds and 12.9 seconds. Through the analysis of weather maps, both the fetches for the wind directions SW-SE along the South Coast and the relationship between the wind speed at sea and the wind speed at the nearby land weather stations for seasonal winds are determined. The wind speed at sea are found to be 0.8-0.9 times the wind speed at the land stations for $U_1$>15m/s. The ratio of the duration-averaged wind speed to the maximum wind speed varies between 0.7-0.9 as a negative exponential function for the duration ranging 2< t< 13 hours.

국가간 지역간 물의 이동을 개념화하여 물 부족 현상을 정치경제학적 관점에서 접근하려는 가상수(virtual water) 연구가 국제적으로 진행되고 있다. 가상수를 양적 측면에서 산정하여 정확한 물 수지를 파악하면 수자원에 대한 국가의 계획과 전략 수립에 매우 유리한 여건이 조성된다. 우리나라의 국가계획인 수자원장기종합계획은 국가 간의 물 이동을 고려하지 않고 국내에서 발생하는 용수의 수요와 공급 측면만을 산정하고 있다. 그러나 현재에도 국내에서 소비하는 농산물과 축산물의 상당량은 수입에 의존하고 있으며, 향후 국제교역과 FTA의 확대 등으로 그 의존도는 더욱 증대될 것으로 추산된다. 따라서 국가 간 물 이동에 대한 양적 규모를 파악하여 국가전략을 수립하는 기초자료로 활용하기 위한 연구가 필요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 산업연관분석법을 활용하여 국내 산업별(제조업, 서비스업) 가상수를 산정하여 국가 수자원계획 수립에 필요한 기초자료로서 제공하고자 한다. 산업연관분석(Inter-industry analysis)은 산업연관표를 바탕으로 산업 간의 상호 연관관계를 수량적으로 파악하는 방법이다. 이를 가상수 산정에 활용하여 직접수와 간접수를 포함한 물의 전체 사용량을 산정할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 각 산업의 용수량을 총 생산량으로 나누어 물 강도($m^3$/원)를 계산하고, 생산유발계수와 최종수요를 곱하는 방식으로 산업별 가상수량을 산정하였다. 산업별 가상수 산정 결과는 경제총조사의 용수비와 산업연관표의 생산유발계수를 적용하였으며, 제2차 산업인 제조업 분야의 연간 가상수량은 60.4억 $m^3$, 제3차 산업인 서비스 분야의 가상수량은 연간 43.1억 $m^3$으로 분석하였다. 또한 향후 10년의 OECD 기술수준 제품군별 무역수지 전망을 고려한 결과, 기술수준 중 및 고 기술제품의 가상수 수출량이 2020년에는 2010년에 비해 약 3배 증가하는 것으로 산정하였다. 이와 같은 방법으로 산정된 산업별 가상수는 각 산업의 물 사용량을 추정하고 산업 전반의 수자원 활용도를 파악하는데 이용 가능하다. 더불어 국제 환경 및 기후변화가 반영된 가상수 시나리오 연구를 통해 장래 용수 수요변화예측 등 효과적인 물 관리 정책 수립에 기여할 수 있다.
