The ship-borne gravity data is essential to construct geoid in Korea surrounding ocean area. The altimeter data was used in previous study, however, the ship-borne gravity data could be used due to more ship-borne data was collected by improvement of instrument, positioning system. Therefore, the study on verification of precision of ship-borne gravity data and practical usage analysis is needed. In this study, free-air anomaly having 16.47mGal and 18.86mGal as mean and standard deviation was obtained after consistent processing such as Eotvos correction, Kalman Filter, Cross-over adjustment etc. The calculated free-air anomaly was compared to DNSC08 altimeter data and the difference was computed having -0.88mGal and 9.46mGal of mean and standard deviation. The reason causing those differences are owing to spatial limits of data acquisition and effects of ocean topography. To use ship-borne gravity data for precision geoid development, the efforts to overcome the limits of data collection and study for data combination should be proceeded.

In recent, the rainfall is showing different properties in space and time but the ground rain gauge only can observe rainfall at a point. This means the ground rain gauge has the limitations in spatial and temporal resolutions to measure rainfall and so there is a need to utilize radar rainfall which can consider spatial distribution of rainfall This study tried to apply radar rainfall for runoff simulation on an urban drainage system. The study area is Guro-gu, Seoul and we divided study area into subbasins based on rain gauge network of AWS(Automatic Weather station). Then the radar rainfalls were adjusted using rainfall data of rain gauge stations the areal rainfalls were obtained. The runoffs were simulated by using XP-SWMM model in subbasins of an urban drainage system. As the results, the adjusted radar rainfalls were underestimated in the range of 60 to 95% of rain gauge rainfalls and so the simulated runoffs from the adjusted radar and gauge rainfalls also showed the differences. The runoff peak time from radar rainfall was occurred more fast than that from gauge rainfall.

Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymers(CFRP) has widely utilized as a material for rehabilitation because of its light-weight, deformability and workability. Because CFRP is brittle material whereas steel is ductile, it is inappropriate to apply conventional design approach for steel reinforcement. For ductile material, the behavior of combined elements is on average of that of unit element due to the stress redistribution between elements after yielding. Therefore, the mean value of the stress of combined elements is equal to that of unit element and the standard variation is smaller. Therefore, although the design value can increase, it is used as constant value because it is conservative and practical approach. However, for brittle material, the behavior of combined elements is governed by the weaker element because no stress redistribution is expected. Therefore, both the mean value and standard variation of the stress of combined elements decreases. For this reason, the design value would decrease as the number of element increases although it is eventually converged. In this paper, in brittle material, it is verified that the combination of unit element with normal distribution results in combined element with weibull distribution, so the modifying equation of mechanical properties is proposed with respect to the area load applied.

Purpose : More recently, combined PET/MR scanners have been developed in which the MR data can be used for both anatometabolic image formation and attenuation correction of the PET data. For quantitative PET information, correction of tissue photon attenuation is mandatory. The attenuation map is obtained from the CT scan in the PET/CT. In the case of PET/MR, the attenuation map can be calculated from the MR image. The purpose of this study was to assess the quantitative differences between MR-based and CT-based attenuation corrected PET images. Materials and Methods : Using the uniform cylinder phantom of distilled water which has 199.8 MBq of $^{18}F$-FDG put into the phantom, we studied the effect of MR-based and CT-based attenuation corrected PET images, of the PET-CT using time of flight (TOF) and non-TOF iterative reconstruction. The images were acquired from 60 minutes at 15-minute intervals. Region of interests were drawn over 70% from the center of the image, and the Scanners' analysis software tools calculated both maximum and mean SUV. These data were analyzed by one way-anova test and Bland-Altman analysis. MR images are segmented into three classes(not including bone), and each class is assigned to each region based on the expected average attenuation of each region. For clinical diagnostic purpose, PET/MR and PET/CT images were acquired in 23 patients (Ingenuity TF PET/MR, Gemini TF64). PET/CT scans were performed approximately 33.8 minutes after the beginnig of the PET/MR scans. Region of interests were drawn over 9 regions of interest(lung, liver, spleen, bone), and the Scanners' analysis software tools calculated both maximum and mean SUV. The SUVs from 9 regions of interest in MR-based PET images and in CT-based PET images were compared. These data were analyzed by paired t test and Bland-Altman analysis. Results : In phantom study, MR-based attenuation corrected PET images generally showed slightly lower -0.36~-0.15 SUVs than CT-based attenuation corrected PET images (p<0.05). In clinical study, MR-based attenuation corrected PET images generally showed slightly lower SUVs than CT-based attenuation corrected PET images (excepting left middle lung and transverse Lumbar) (p<0.05). And percent differences were -8.01.79% lower for the PET/MR images than for the PET/CT images. (excepting lung) Based on the Bland-Altman method, the agreement between the two methods was considered good. Conclusion : PET/MR confirms generally lower SUVs than PET/CT. But, there were no difference in the clinical interpretations made by the quantitative comparisons with both type of attenuation map.

기후변화는 강수와 기온을 변화시켜 수자원에 지대한 영향을 미칠 것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 이에 대한 안정적인 수자원 관리를 위해서는 기후변화 영향을 정량적으로 평가하는 것이 필요하다. 기본적으로 기후변화에 대한 수자원의 영향을 연구할 때 '온실가스 배출시나리오, GCMs을 통한 기후모의, 시공간적 편차보정을 위한 상세화, 유출모형 적용을 통한 유출시나리오 생산'의 과정을 거친다. 그러나 유출시나리오를 얻기까지 과정에는 각각 불확실성을 가지고 있기 때문에 최종결과의 불확실성은 각 과정을 거치면서 매우 커진다고 할 수 있다. 다양한 배출시나리오, GCM 결과, 유출모형에 대해 단순평균 혹은 가중치를 주는 multi-model ensemble 기법은 각 경우에 따른 값의 범위를 제시할 수있다는 점 때문에 불확실성 평가에서 주로 이용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 우리나라 5대강 유역 109개 중권역에 대해 multi-model ensemble을 적용하여 기후변화에 의한 수자원 영향을 평가하였다. 1971년에서 2100년까지 120년 기간에 대해 3개의 온실가스 배출시나리오, 13개의 GCMs 결과들을 수집하여 총 39개의 기후시나리오를 이용하였고, 이를 8개의 유출모형에 적용하여 총 312개의 유출시나리오를 생산하였다. 생산된 유출시나리오를 기준시간(1971${\sim}$2000)에 대한 미래의 세 기간(2020s, 2050s, 2080s)으로 나누어 변화율을 분석한 결과 여름철 유출량과 겨울철 유출량이 증가될것으로 나타났으나 겨울철 유출량 전망은 여름철에 비해 불확실성이 큰 것으로 나타났다. 공간적으로는 한강유역이 위치한 북쪽유역이 남쪽에 비해 불확실성이 큰 것으로 나타났다. 결과적으로 유출의 시공간적 편차에 의해 우리나라 수자원은 홍수피해 증가가 예상되었으며, 월별유출량의 변화로 인해 용수확보와 관리에 어려움이 증가할 것으로 전망되었다.

We proposed a new pixel circuit and driving method for the large-area, high-luminance AMOLED applications in this study. We designed with the low-temperature poly-silicon(LTPS) thin film transistors(TFTs) that has poor uniformity but stable characteristic. To improve the uniformity of an image, the threshold voltage($V_{TH}$) and the mobility of the TFTs can be compensated together. The proposed method overcomes the previous methods for mobility compensation, and that is profitable for large-area applications. Black data insertion was introduced to improve the characteristics for moving images. AMOLED panel can operate in two compensation mode, so the luminance degradation by mobility compensation can be released. The scan driver for controlling the pixel circuits were optimized, and the compensation mode can be controlled simply by that. Final driving signal has large timing margin, and the panel operates stably. The pixel circuit was designed for 14.1" WXGA top-emission ANGLED panel. The non-uniformity of the designed panel was estimated under 5% for the mobility compensation time of 1us.

The self-attenuation factor for an $^{198}Au$ sample and the 0.412 MeV gamma-ray penetration ratio in the circular Al-cover of the radiation detector have been determined using an analytical solution and MCNP code. The results show that the self-attenuation factors obtained from the analytical solution coincide with those of MCNP code for all but the Au sample with the relatively larger radius. Then the maximum difference between the two methods appears to be 9 % in the Au sample of 1.5 mm radius. It also is revealed that the analytical solutions of the 0.412 MeV gamma-ray penetration ratio in the Al-cover of 7.62 cm radius are consistent with those of the MCNP code within the standard deviation.

Ionosphere, one of the largest error sources, can pose potentially harmful threat to single-frequency GNSS (global navigation satellite system) user even after applying ionospheric corrections to their GNSS measurements. To quantitatively assess ionospheric impacts on the satellite navigation-based applications using simulation, the standard deviation of residual ionospheric errors is needed. Thus, in this paper, we determine conservative statistical quantity that covers typical residual ionospheric errors for nominal days. Extensive data-processing computes TEC (total electron content) estimates from GNSS measurements collected from the Korean reference station networks. We use Klobuchar model as a correction to calculate residual ionospheric errors from TEC (total electron content) estimate. Finally, an exponential delay model for residual ionospheric errors is presented as a function of local time and satellite elevation angle.

최근 환경부에서 발표한 국가물관리기본계획에서 수자원 총량 중 생활·공업·농업·유지용수의 이용량은 365억m³/년으로 약 29.4%로 발표되었다. 유지용수를 제외한 농업용수 이용량의 비중은 약 60.5%이며, 이 중 약 80%가 논에서 활용되고 있다. 이러한 농업용수 이용량 중 사용되지 않고 하천으로의 방류량이 존재하는데 이를 관개회귀수량이라하며, 농업용수의 약 35%가 하천으로 회귀된다 발표하나 지역에 따른 편차가 존재하기에 정확한 회귀수량을 산정하기엔 미흡한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 네트워크 모형을 통한 용배수로 구축 이후 회귀수 정량화를 하고자 하며, 정량화를 위한 네트워크 모형은 EPA-SWMM(Storm Water Management Model) 모형을 활용하였다. 해당 모형은 미국 환경 보호국(U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, EPA)에서 개발한 네트워크 물리모형으로 다양한 환경적 요소에 따른 수문 영향을 확인 가능한 모형이다. 해당 모형의 다양한 네트워크 기능을 통해 논배수로 네트워크를 구축하여 회귀수 정량화를 진행하고자 한다. 논배수로 네트워크를 구축하기 이전 현장조사를 진행하였다. 현장조사를 통한 용수계통도를 작성하였으며, 모형의 입력자료로 필요한 네트워크 용배수로관 표고값을 측량하였다. 이후 현장조사 및 측량 자료를 활용하여 네트워크 물리모형의 입력자료 구축을 진행하였으며, 해당 자료 구축은 지리 정보 시스템 중 ArcGIS와의 연계를 통해 구축하였다. 모형의 수리학적 입력자료는 해당지역의 계측자료를 활용하였으며, 필지 사이의 내리흐름 및 펌프를 통한 용수 또한 네트워크 물리모형의 기능을 활용하여 구축하였다. 이후 계측자료와의 비교를 통한 매개변수 보정을 진행하였으며, 전체 논배수로에 대한 농업용수의 흐름 및 회귀수량을 분석하였다. 해당 연구를 통해 농업용수의 회귀수 산정 및 지역 편차에 따른 회귀수 정량화 등의 연구에 활용될 것으로 기대한다.

N-RTK(Network based RTK) methods are able to improve the accuracy of GNSS positioning results through modelling of the distance-dependent error sources(i.e. primarily the ionospheric and tropospheric delays and orbit errors). In this study, the comparison of the TTFF(Time-To-Fix-First ambiguity), accuracy and discrepancies in horizontal/vertical components of N-RTK methods(VRS and FKP) with the static GNSS at 20 Unified Control Stations covering Incheon metropolitan city area during solar storms(Solar cycle 24 period) were performed. The results showed that the best method, compared with the statics GNSS survey, is the VRS, followed by the FKP, but vertical components of both VRS and FKP were approximately two times bigger than horizontal components. The reason for this is considered as the ionospheric scintillation because of irregularities in electron density, and the tropospheric scintillation because of fluctuations on the refractive index take the place. When the TTFF at each station for each technique used, VRS gave shorter initialization time than FKP. The possible reasons for this result might be the inherent differences in principles, errors in characteristics of different correction networks, interpolating errors of FKP parameters according to the non-linear variation of the dispersive and non-dispersive errors at rover when considering both domestic mobile communication infra and the standardized high-compact data format for N-RTK. Also, those test results revealed degradation of positing accuracy, long initialization time, and sudden re-initialization, but more failures to resolve ambiguity during space weather events caused by Sunspot activity and solar flares.
