수중 폭발성 음원(SUS)을 이용한 천해 저주파 잔향음 실험을 97년 제주 해역에서 실시하였다 측정된 신호를 고유음선 정보를 이용하여 시간영역에서 잡음, 반사, 산란 영역으로 구분하고 각 영역에 대해서 주파수별 스펙트럼 분석을 실시하였으며 각 영역이 갖는 확률적 특성을 분석하였다. 실험해역은 안정된 해저 형태를 갖는 천해였으므로 산란 신호는 일정한 크기를 갖고 지속적으로 수신되었다. 스펙트럼 분석 결과, 시간에 따른 안정성을 갖는 주파수 대역을 확인할 수 있었으며 구분된 영역별 위상은 반사영역과 산란영역의 위상 특성을 잘 반영하고 있었다. 구분된 각 영역에 대해 1/3 옥타브 벤드로 필터링 하여 확률 특성을 분석한 결과 주파수영역의 실수부와 허수부는 각각 정규 분포를 보였으며 그것의 진폭(envelope)은 레일리 분포를 나타냈다. 또한 산란신호의 위상은 저주파 대역에서 유니폼 분포 특성을 나타내어 잔향음의 기본적인 확률 특성을 잘 반영하고 있었다.

On September 23, 2020, at 1:39 a.m., a bright fireball above Seocheon was observed across the country. Two fireball explosions were identified in the images of the All-Sky Camera (ASC), and the shock waves were recorded at seismic and infrasound stations in the southwestern Korean Peninsula. The location of the explosion was estimated by a Bayesian-based location method using the arrival times of the fireball-associated seismic and infrasound signals at 17 stations. Realistic azimuth- and rang-dependent propagation speeds of sound waves were incorporated into the location method to increase the reliability of the results. The location of the sound source was found to be 36.050°N, 126.855°E at an altitude of 35 km, which was close to the location of the second fireball explosion. The two explosions were identified as sequential infrasound arrivals at local infrasound stations. Simulations of waveforms for long ranges explain the detection results at distant infrasound stations, up to ~266 km from the sound source. The dominant period of the signals recorded at five infrasound stations is about 0.4 s. A period-energy relation suggests the explosion energy was equivalent to ~0.3 ton of TNT.

전 세계적으로 9.11로 대표되는 자살테러, 비행기테러, 화학가스 테러 등에 의한 인명피해가 늘고 있다. 1986년 김포공항 폭발사고, 1995년 음진리교 지하철 사린가스 사건, 2001년 9.11 사건, 2003년 필리핀 공항 폭탄테러 사건 등의 큰 테러 외에도 작은 사건은 무수히 많다. 이러한 테러 사태를 미연에 방지하기 위한 지능형 영상 보안 감시 시스템이 사회적으로 연구되어왔고 도입되어 왔다. 기존의 지능형 영상 보안 시스템은 모션 디렉션 기반으로 금지구역의 침입자로 판단되는 사람을 찾는 기능 중심으로 발전해왔다. 또한 보안요원의 관찰 모니터를 통해 화면을 계속 주시하는 한계 시간의 존재와 모니터 증가에 따른 한계 시간은 더 급감하게 되는 것으로 판단되었다. 이에 본 연구를 통해 유기물 탐지의 자동화를 추구하고, 보안 요원의 감시 업무를 도와 국가 주요 시설물의 유기물 자동 탐지를 통해 테러로부터 안전하게 보호하고자 한다.

본 논문에서는 6 자유도 공간음향 렌더링 기술 관련 음향객체의 거리감 인지에 중요한 공기흡음 감쇠 효과 처리에 있어, 현장의 음원과 음향 센서 사이의 거리인 녹음거리에 해당하는 공기흡음 감쇠가 기본적으로 포함되어 3kHz 이상의 고주파 성분이 감쇠된 음원이 렌더링에 사용되는 문제점을 해결하는 방법을 제시한다. 이 방법에 의하면 6 자유도 공간음향 콘텐츠에 메타데이터로서 녹음거리 파라메터를 포함시키고, 렌더링할 때 공기흡음을 적용하기 위한 음원과 청취자의 거리값에 녹음거리에 대한 보상을 적용함으로써, 음원의 공기흡음 감쇠 효과를 정확하게 수정 적용하여 음원의 음색을 모든 거리에서 실제에 가깝도록 제공할 수 있게 된다. 특히, 원거리 녹음이 불가피한 비행기, 천둥, 폭발음 등 원거리 녹음음원의 음색에 녹음거리에 의한 음원의 공기흡음 감쇠가 적지 않은 영향을 미치게 되는데, 녹음거리의 적용에 의한 제안한 방법에 의해 음원과 청취자의 거리값에 대한 음원의 음색이 고주파영역의 녹음거리에 의한 원치 않는 감쇠를 보상하는 효과를 확인할 수 있었다.

Since the end of the World War II, the population explosion of developing countries has been a global concern. However, the impact of family planning program effort to reduce fertility is difficult to measure, as the effort level is endogenously determined. This paper studies if the family planning program impact is substantial and statistically significant in fertility reduction using fixed effect analysis. The fixed effect estimate shows that there is little impact of family planning program effort on fertility. Only the higher income countries showed significant negative impact.

TDOA(time delay of arrival) position estimate from acoustic measurement of artillery shell impact is studied in order to develop a targeting evaluation system. Impact position is calculated from the intersections of hyperbolic estimates based on the least square Taylor series method. The mathematical process of Taylor series estimation is known to be robust. However, the concern lays with the accuracy because it is sensitive to the bias caused by the randomness of measurement situation. The measurement error typically occurs from the distortion of waveform, change of travelling path, and sensor position error. For outdoor measurement, a consideration should be made on the atmospheric condition such as temperature and wind which can possibly change the trajectories of rays of sound. It produces wrong propagation time events accordingly. Ray tracing and optimization techniques are introduced in this study to minimize the bias induced by the ray of sound. The numerical simulation shows that the atmospheric correction improves the estimation accuracy.

In this paper, we used the sound of gunshots recorded by multiple microphones to increase the accuracy of the calculation of the distance between sniper and the microphone array. This method is crucial for achieving military objectives. Gunshots are comprised of the explosion of driving gas from the muzzle and the supersonic shock wave from the flying bullet. The original distance calculation method compares the time difference of arrival and angle of incidence to estimate the sniper's location. The disadvantage of this method is that when the angles of incidence coincide the margin of error increases, to solve this problem we suggest a new method using the characteristic changes of the shock wave with the increase of perpendicular distance between the microphone and the trajectory of the bullet. This theory is verified by experiments.

Hydrogen energy technology is gaining importance in the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, offering military advantages when applied to military vehicles due to its characteristics such as reduced greenhouse gas emissions, noise, and low vibration. Korea's military has initiated the Army Tiger 4.0 plan, focusing on hydrogen application, downsizing, and AI-based smart features. The Ministry of National Defense plans to collaborate with the Ministry of Environment to expand hydrogen charging stations nationwide, anticipating increased deployment of military hydrogen vehicles. However, considering the Jet Fire and VCE(Vapor Cloud Explosion) nature of hydrogen, ensuring safety during installation is crucial. Current military guidelines specify a minimum safety distance of 2m from adjacent buildings for charging stations. Scientific methods have been employed to quantitatively assess the accident damage range of hydrogen, proposing a minimum safety distance beyond the affected area.

Internet web pages can be classified by three major types such as texts only, images with texts and videos with texts. The purpose of this paper is to analyze how customers recognize and respond perspective of perceived risk and media richness with regard to design patterns of internet web pages. Additionally, we will examine the extent to which aforementioned factors affect customer satisfaction. Analyses with perceived risks revealed that customers feel less personal risks including performance, psychology and time/convenience when used web pages of text-images and text-videos, compared to text only based web pages. However, customers feel that web pages consisting of image-text or video-text have higher points in terms of symbolism and social presence in media richness, compared to text only based web pages. Finally, we showed that personal risk and text-based Web page negatively affect but symbolism and social presence positively impact on customer satisfaction. Therefore, this study suggests a clue that why video-based Web content did not grow different from many people's expectation.

Volcanic ash (VA) can be estimated by remote sensing sensors through their spectral signatures determined by the inherent optical property (IOP) including complex refractive index and the scattering properties. Until now, a very limited range of VA refractive indices has been reported and the VA from each volcanic eruption has a different composition. To improve the robustness of VA remote sensing, there is a need to understanding of VA - radiation interactions. In this study, we calculated extinction coefficient, scattering phase function, asymmetry factor, and single scattering albedo which show different values between andesite and pumice. Then, IOPs were used to analyze the relationship between theoretical remote sensed radiation calculated by radiative transfer model under various aerosol optical thickness (${\tau}$) and sun-sensor geometries and characteristics of VA. It was found that the mean rate of change of radiance at top of atmosphere versus ${\tau}$ is six times larger than in radiance values at 0.55 ${\mu}m$. At the surface, positive correlation dominates when ${\tau}$ <1, but negative correlation dominates when ${\tau}$ >1. However, radiance differences between andesite and pumice at 11 ${\mu}m$ are very small. These differences between two VA types are expressed as the polynomial regression functions and that increase as VA optical thickness increases. Finally, these results would allow VA to be better characterized by remote sensing sensors.
