It is not possible to provide resonable evidence for embankment (or dam) overtopping in geotechnical engineering, and conventional analysis by hydrologic design has not provided the evidence for the overflow. However, hydrologic design analysis using Copula function demonstrates the possibility that dam overflow occurs when estimating rainfall probability with rainfall data for 40 years based on fluctuating water level of a dam. Hydrologic dam risk analysis depends on complex hydrologic analyses in that probabilistic relationship needs to be established to quantify various uncertainties associated with modeling process and inputs. The systematic approaches to uncertainty analysis for hydrologic risk analysis have not been addressed yet. In this paper, the initial level of a dam for stability of a dam is generally determined by normal pool level or limiting the level of the flood, but overflow of probability and instability of a dam depend on the sensitivity analysis of the initial level of a dam. In order to estimate the initial level, Copula function and HEC-5 rainfall-runoff model are used to estimate posterior distributions of the model parameters. For geotechnical engineering, slope stability analysis was performed to investigate the difference between rapid drawdown and overtopping of a dam. As a result, the slope instability in overtopping of a dam was more dangerous than that of rapid drawdown condition.

In an attempt to evaluate the nutritional quality of seaweed protein, the effects of heat treatment on the in vitro digestibility and trypsin inhibitor content in seaweed were determined. In this study, the nitrogen-to-protein conversion factors were also calculated on the basis of quantitative amino acid data. The results are as follows : 1. The in vitro protein digestbilty of red seaweeds (P. teoera anc P. suborbiculata) were ranged from 78.5 to 82.2, and green seawerd (E. linza) and brown seaweeds showed value under 80 in vitro digestibility. In general, trypsin inhibitor contents in brown seaweed were higher (0.33-0.54 mg/g) than those of red seaweeds (0.26-0.39 mg/g). And it is noted that the lowest trypsin inhibitor content was shown in green seaweed (E. linza) in spite of lowest in spite digestibility (78.5). 2. The in vitro protein digestibility of sun dried laver (P. tenera) was increased with cooling time (microwave heating), but it was not significant. Hot plate cooking raised the in vitro digestibility from 81. 1 to 84.5. The influence pot cooking time on trypsin inhibitor content was inversely proportional to in vitro digestibility. 3. Computed nitrogen factor, based on amino acid content (Factor method) and Kjeldahl nitrogen content (Kjeldahl mettled), were 5.83 (H. fusiforme)- 6.52 (P. tencra) as Factor method and 5.40 (U. pinnatifida)-6.29 (P. tenera) as Kjeldahl method. Individual value for each nitrogen conversion factor differed by species, especially in brown seaweeds. The best estimate of the protein content of seaweed can be calculated, from multiplying the summed amino acid content by conversion factor (Factor method).

The recent bridge construction projects demand thorough and systematic safety and risk management, due to the increase of risk factors following the introduction of new and complex construction methods and technologies. Among many types of damages that can occur in bridge construction projects, the damages to third parties who are not directly related to the existing property of the contractor construction project can also bring about critical loss in the project in order to compensate the damages. Therefore, risks that could be caused by the loss occurred to indemnify the third party damages should be clearly analyzed, although there are not subsequent amount of studies focusing on the issue. Based on the past record of insurance payment from domestic insurance companies for bridge construction projects, this study aimed to analyze the risk factors of bridge construction for loss caused to compensate the third-party damages happened in actual bridge construction projects and to develop a quantified and numerical predictive loss model. In order to develop the model, the loss ratio was selected as the dependent variable; and among many analyzed independent variables, the superstructure, foundation, flood, and ranking of contractors were the four significant risk factor variables that affect the loss ratio. The results produced can be used as an essential guidance for balanced risk assessment, supplementing the existing analysis on material losses in bridge construction projects by taking into account the third-party damage and losses.

Regional rainfall quantile depends on the identification of hydrologically homogeneous regions. Various variables relevant to precipitation can be used to form regions. Since the type and number of variables may lead to improve the efficiency of partitioning, it is important to select those precipitation related variables, which represent most of the information from all candidate variables. Multivariate analysis techniques can be used for this purpose. Procrustes analysis which can decrease the dimension of variables based on their correlations, are applied in this study. 42 rainfall related variables are decreased into 21 ones by Procrustes analysis. Factor analysis is applied to those selected variables and then 5 factors are extracted. Fuzzy-c means technique classifies 68 stations into 6 regions. As a result, the GEV distributions are fitted to 6 regions while the lognormal and generalized logistic distributions are fitted to 5 regions. For the comparison purpose with previous results, rainfall quantiles based on generalized logistic distribution are estimated by at-site frequency analysis, index flood method, and regional shape estimation method.

In this paper, it was analyzed the variation of hydraulic characteristics through changing discharge at main channel and lateral channel and state of hydraulic structure at the natural channel junction by experiment. The experimental area is chosen at the channel junction of Nam-Han river and Pyeongchang river. The scale of the experiment is 1/200 in horizontal, and 1/66.7 in vortical, so the distoration rate is 3. From the experiment, the reduction effect of the water level is $12\%$ in the case of removing intank dam, and $5\%$ at the hydro-electronic dam removing case. Furthermore, in the case of two hydraulic structures removing, the reduction effect of water level is $18\%$ at the channel junction. Also, the stagnation zone, which is cased diminution of the channel at the junction, is decreasing through removing the structures.

This study analyzed convergent factors related to self-leadership of female freshmen in health majors studying TOEIC. The survey was conducted from April 29, 2019 to May 10, 2019 using unregistered self-administered questionnaire for 201 female freshmen in health majors and they were randomly selected from TOEIC class in college located in J city. The results of hierarchical multiple regression analysis show the following. The self-leadership of respondents turned out to be significantly higher in following groups: a group in which self-competence is higher, a group in which subdivision task self-efficacy and coping self-efficacy is higher, and a group in which subdivision chance of locus control from locus of control is lower. Their explanatory power was 49.7%. The results of the study indicate that the efforts to manage self-competence, self-efficacy, and locus of control are required to improve the self-leadership of female freshmen in health majors studying TOEIC. These results can be used for academic counseling guidance to enhance self-leadership of female freshmen in health majors studying TOEIC. In the future research, it is necessary to establish and analyze a structural equation model that affects self-leadership of male and female college students in health majors studying TOEIC.

The average annual rainfall in Busan to increase, and in case of Oncheon-Chen in Busan, frequent flooding occurred frequently. The middle and lower reaches of the Oncheon-Chen are relatively flat and urban areas are developed. Therefore, due to the frequent flooding of rivers and the large flood damage, a method of effectively eliminating the flow rate of Oncheon-Chen in the event of heavy rain is needed. In this study, underground waterway was established in the east of Hoedong-Reservoir as a measure to reduce floods in hot springs and simulated with EPA-SWMM. The information needed to construct the basin was utilized by GIS. In middle part of the Suyeong-Gang, there is a Hoedong-Reservoir and a dam is installed and has better conditions than the Nakdong-Gang. It also analyzed the effect of the Oncheon-Chen flow through the underground waterway on the Suyeong-Gang when it was transferred to the Hoedong-Reservoir. It was analyzed that the flood reduction rate at the flood risk points set up in this study was reduced by 24.64% on average when the underground waterway was installed, and the inflow of the water into the Suyeong-Gang increased by 1% on average when the flow rate was excluded by the Suyeong-Gang.

Recently, the scale of flood damage occurring in urban areas is increasing due to climate change and urbanization, so various flooding analysis techniques are needed. In the Sadangcheon Stream basin, which has been continuously flooded since 2010, a basic plan for improving drainage was established using XP-SWMM and measures to prevent flooding were proposed. However, in the process of inundation analysis, the analysis considering the city's buildings was not conducted, resulting in a problem that the degree of flooding damage tends to be overestimated. Therefore, in this study, XP-SWMM was used to compare and analyze cases where buildings were not considered and designated as inactive areas. As a result of the study, it was analyzed if the building was not considered, the flood damaged area was 271,100 m² and the depth of submersion was 0.15 m, and if the building was considered inactive area, the flood damaged area was 172,900 m² and the depth of submersion was 0.32 m that it is under-estimated about 36% and an flow velocity around the building increased from 1.62 m/s to 1.83 m/s about 1.12 times.

현재 인류가 직면한 에너지 부문의 큰 난제는 화석연료의 한정된 매장이기도 하지만 그 사용에 따른 환경오염으로 인한 피해들이 더 큰 문제로 대두되고 있다. 그중 지구 온난화의 영향으로 최근 세계에 국지적인 홍수, 가뭄, 태풍등의 기후 불안정으로 피해보는 상황이 가속화 되고 있다. 또한, 북극지방의 해빙으로 해수면 상승이 예상되며 머지않은 시간에 해수면 상승의 직접적인 피해가 인류에게 오리라는 보고가 많이 발표되고 있다. 그런데 우리가 더욱 중요한 것은 지구촌83의 관성이 크기 때문에 지구 온난화 와 해수면 상승이 인류에 큰 피해를 미치기 시작할 때는 이미 돌이킬 수 없는 상황에 진입해버린다는 사실을 간과하고 있는다는 것이다. 그러므로 과학적 분석에 근거하여 피해를 축소하기위한 활동을 실천해야할 시기이다. 특히, 우리나라의 경우 에너지의 97% 이상을 해외에서 수입하고 있으며, 세계에너지 소비 10위, 석유 소비 7위의 열악한 에너지 자원 빈국인 만큼, 중장기적인 관점에서 석유의존도를 개선하고 신재생에너지원을 확보하는 등 대책마련이 시급한 실정이다. 신재생에너지원으로 현재까지 가장 큰 역할을 해왔던 것 중의 하나가 풍력발전기인데, 오늘날 세계 풍력에 의한 발전량은 세계 총 발전량의 2% 미만에 불과하이다. 이러한 풍력 시장에 발맞춰 국내에서도 풍력발전기 개발에 많은 힘을 쏟고 있는데, 2002년부터 750 kW급 풍력발전기가 처음 개발되기 시작하였고, 이후 2 MW급 풍력발전기와 3 MW급 풍력발전기가 개발되었으며, 최근에는 5 MW와 7.5 MW급등 초대형 풍력발전기가 대기업 중심으로 개발 진행되고 있었으나, 2008년 세계 금융위기 이후 세계 경기침체의 영향으로 국내 풍력산업도 적지않은 영향으로 구조조정되어 기존 7~8개 풍력발전기 제조사들이 3개사 이하로 축소되고 있다. 이에 정부 및 전라남도는 해상풍력산업을 침체기를 겪는 조선산업의 대체산업으로 육성하기위해, 정부 주도로 부안 앞바다에 2.5 GW 해상풍력발전단지개발을 준비 중에 있으며, 전라남도는 전남 서해안에 4 GW 해상풍력발전단지 개발을 서두드고 있다. 특히, 전라남도는 국내에서 가장 많은 풍력에너지 포텐셜을 가지고 있으며, 바람의 질 또한 우수하여 이를 지역산업 활성화의 모멘텀으로 가져가기위해 많은 노력을 기울이고 있다. 그 일례로 영광군 백수읍 하사리 바닷가 $4,342m^2$ 부지에 "풍력테스트베드"를 개발하여 국내 풍력발전기 제조사들이 활용하도록 도움을 주고 있다. 종래의 테스트베드는 해외지역을 이용하였는데, 이는 국내에서 개발된 풍력발전기들이 국제인증을 받기위해 바람의 질이 좋은 해외 테스트베드에 설치되어 평가받았으며 고가의 비용이 소모되었다. 제주도에 테스트베드 장소가 있긴 하지만 수용 규모가 작아 풍력발전기 제조사들이 대기할 수 없어 해외로 나가는 실정에 전라남도의 내륙 테스트베드를 개발함으로서 풍력발전기 제조사들에게 큰 도움을 주고 있다. 본 보고에서는 국가 해상풍력 산업발전의 단계별 전략과 전라남도의 해상풍력산업의 방향 그리고 풍력테스트베드의 현황을 소개하고자 한다.
