This study is aimed at the effective measurement plan of discontinuity orientation on rock mass. The discontinuity orientation is expressed as three methods. strike/dip. dipdirection/dip (a three digit number / a two digit number) and right hand rule. Generally, strike/dip is measured with clinometer. and dipdirection/dip with silva compass(type15). A sign of strike/dip. discontinuity orientation is used to geological survey. and dipdirection/dip to engineering. Dipdirection/dip converted by strike/dip measured with clinometer is useful on the statistical analysis of a lot of data. To measure the azimuth of the dip with clinometer and to change strike/dip to dipdirection/dip may have potential errors in each person. The newly designed apparatus, clinometer equipped by a rotational azimuth plate and an arrow to measuring strike and dipdirection, has been developed to measure effectively the discontinuity orientation with two method (strike/dip and dipdirection/dip). The measuring method of discontinuity orientation with clinometer having newly designed apparatus is effective one for accurate measurement of strike as well as dipdirection which is degrees counted clockwise from true north. Used by clinometer with newly designed apparatus, concurrent measuring strike/dip and dipdirecton/dip of discontinuity is possible. In application to measuring discontinuity orientation on rock slope, it has been recognized that the newly designed method, unambiguously, led to drop measuring errors comparing with existing measuring apparatuses. Therefore, it is considered that measuring method of discontinuity orientation (strike/dip and dipdirecton/dip) by the newly designed apparatus is useful to one in geological engineering investigation of road design, and to unskilled investigator.

우리나라는 전체 강수량 중 절반 이상이 여름철에 집중되어 있으며, 그 중 전선형 강우와 같은 장마/집중호우와 저기압형 강우인 태풍이 동반하는 강우로 나뉠 수 있다. 태풍은 북태평양 부근에서 발생하며 중심 최대풍속이 17m/s 이상이며 폭풍우를 동반하는 열대성 저기압으로 정의된다. 태풍 관측 이래 우리나라에 영향을 준 태풍은 총 324개 이며, 연평균 3.1개가 영향을 미치고 있다. 태풍은 2010년 콤파스와 뎬무와 같이 많은 피해를 주기도 하지만 2009년과 같이 우리나라에 내습한 태풍이 없는 해도 있다. 이와 같이 태풍은 매 년 일정하게 내습을 하거나 영향을 미치지 않으며 무작위적으로 발생한다. 태풍의 발생확률은 설계강우량에 영향을 미치므로 이를 고려한 설계강우량 산정방법이 필요하며 태풍이 내습한 기간 중 가장 많은 강수량이 연최대치강우와 같아지는 횟수를 전체 자료기간으로 나눈 값을 발생확률로 설정하였다. 본 연구에서는 연최대치강우계열에서 태풍으로 인한 강우와 집중호우에 의한 강우로 분리하여 빈도해석을 실시하여 설계강우량을 산정하였다. 단일 모집단 분포를 이용하는 기존의 빈도해석 방법을 보완할 수 있는 혼합 분포함수를 이용하였다. 적용된 혼합 Gumbel 분포로 태풍 강우를 고려할 시 설계강우량의 변화율 살펴보았다. 대상 지점으로는 기상청에서 제공하고 1961년부터 강우량 자료가 존재하는 15개 지점을 대상으로 연구를 수행하였다. 그 결과 대구, 울산을 포함한 9개 지점에서 기존의 설계강우량에 비해 증가하였으며, 부산과 광주를 포함한 6개 지점에서 새롭게 추정된 설계강우량이 기존 값 보다 감소하는 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

As a basic study for enhancing the sensitivity of the follow-up system of the marine gyrocompass, the geometric characteristics of the deflection sensor were investigated and the theoretical model of it was formulated. The output signal voltage of the deflection sensor was esamined by changing the attitude of gyrosphere against follow-up container. The characteristics of the output are found to be indentical with those of the distance difference versus the relative azimuthal deflection of the gyrosphere against the follow up container. On the base of the theoretical model, some useful points for the design of the deflection sensor are suggested as following : 1. When the difference between semidiamter of gyrophere and that of the follow-up container decreases, the sensitivity of deflection sensor increases. 2. If the semidiameter difference of two spheres is constant, the sensitivity of deflection sensor is proportional to the magnitude of the semidiamter of each sphere. 3. The farther the gyrosphere is deviated from the center of follow-up container, the higher the sensitivity of deflection sensor is. 4. It is recommendable that the value of the datum deflection of the electrodes on the gyrosphere should be within the range between $4^{\circ}$ and $16^{\circ}$deviated from north-south line.

Recently, the implementation & modern policy for Global Navigation Satellite System have actively been performed by USA, RUSSIA, EU & CHINA. Therefore 100+ navigation satellites will be in orbit by 2015, and the user of military and civil will benefit from the use of a total constellation of 100+ satellites. It means that the deepest dependence to GPS would be declined. In the paper, the latest technology development & implementation policy of GNSS have been analyzed. Specially, we focused on circumstance change of GNSS & application of navigation technology for modem weapon system. Finally, the application strategy of the integrated GNSS is suggested for military and civil as well.

This paper described the method and the result of making a dynamic fiber optic gyrocompass measuring the heading angles of ships by processing the output signal from a constant rotating fiber optic sensor and also showed the measurement to test the performance of our system. Considerig an economical view we designed and ordered a cheap medium grade fiber densors increased not fiber length but the diameter of a fiber sensing loop. The scale factor and noise was 267mV/deg/s and 2 deg/hr/$\sqrt{Hz}(1{\sigma})$, respectively. We made the dynamic fiber optic gyrocompass by this sensor. We measured the heading angles in an arbitrary direction to evaluate the accuracy of our system and the root mean square error was $0.4^\circ$. Moreover, we measured the angles ineach direction of $45^\circ$. successive rotation to know whether this system has distoritions in a specific direction or not and the root mean square error in this case was $0.5^\circ$.

One of the main purposes of the marine gyrocompass follow-up system is to preserve the sensitive part from the wandering error due to the frictional or torsional torque around the vertical axis. This error can be diminished through the rapid follow-up action, which minimizes the relative azimuthal angular displacement between the sensitive and follow-up parts and shortens the duration of the same displacement. But an excessive rapidity of the follow-up action would result in a sustained oscillation to the system. Therefore, to design a new type of the follow-up system, the theoretical annlysis of the problems concerned should be studied systematically by introducing the control theory. This paper suggest a concrete procedure for the optimal adjustment of the gyrocompass follow-up system, utilizing the mathematic model and the stability informations formerly investiaged by the author. For theoptimal determination of the adjustable paramfter K, the performance index(P.I.), ITSE(Intergral of the Time multiplied by the Squared Error) is proposed, namely, P.I. = $\int_{0}^{\infty} t \cdot e^{2}(t)dt$ where t is time and e(t) means control error. Then, the optimal parameter minimizing the performance index is calculated by means of Parseval's theorem and numerical computation, and the validity of the obtained optimal value of the parameter Ka is examined and confirmed through the simulations and experiments. By using, the proposed method, the optimal adjustment can be performed deterministically. But, this can not be expected in the conventional frequency domain analysis. While the Mps of the original system vary to the extent of from 0.98 to 46.27, Mp of the optimal system is evaluated as 1.1 which satisfies the generally accepted frequency domain specification.

A waypoint tracking algorithm(WTA) is designed for Unmanned Surface Vehicle(USV) in which water-jet system is installed for propulsion To control the heading of USV for waypoint tracking, the steering nozzle of water-jet need, to be controlled. Firstly, target heading is calculated by using the position information of waypoints input from the land control center. Secondly, the command for the steering nozzle of water-jet is calculated in real time by using the heading and the rate-of-turn( ROT) from magnetic compass, In this study, in order to consider the drift angle due to external disturbance such as wind and wave, the course of ground( COG) can be used instead of heading at higher speed than a certain value, To test the performance of newly-designed WTA, the tests were carried out in actual sea area near Gwang-an bridge of Busan. In this paper, the sea trial test results from WTA are analyzed and compared with those from manual control and those from commercial controller.

The National Marine Electronics Association(NMEA) is nonprofit-making cooperation composed with manufacturers, distributors, wholesalers and educational institutions. We use the basic port of equipment in order to process the signal from NMEA signal using equipment. When we don't have enough one, we use the multi-port for processing. However, we need to have module development simulation which could multiplex and provide NMEA related signal that we could solve the problems in multi-port application and exclusive equipment generation for a number of signal. For now, we don't have any case or product using NMEA multiplexer so that we import expensive foreign equipment or embody NMEA signal transmission program like software, using multi-port. These have problems since we have to pay lots ci money and build separate processing part for every application programs. Besides, every equipment generating NMEA signal are from different manufactures and have different platform so that it could cause double waste and loss of recourse. For making up for it, I suggest the NMEA multiplexer embodiment, which could independently move by reliable process and high performance single hardware module, improve the memory efficiency of module by designing the optimized Queue, and keep having reliability for realtime communication among the equipment such as main input sensor equipment Gyrocompass, Echo-sound, and GPS.
