PURPOSES : This study is aimed at development of a stochastic pavement deterioration forecasting model using National Highway Pavement Condition Index (NHPCI) to support infrastructure asset management. Using this model, the deterioration process regarding life expectancy, deterioration speed change, and reliability were estimated. METHODS : Eight years of Long-Term Pavement Performance (LTPP) data fused with traffic loads (Equivalent Single Axle Loads; ESAL) and structural capacity (Structural Number of Pavement; SNP) were used for the deterioration modeling. As an ideal stochastic model for asset management, Bayesian Markov multi-state exponential hazard model was introduced. RESULTS:The interval of NHPCI was empirically distributed from 8 to 2, and the estimation functions of individual condition indices (crack, rutting, and IRI) in conjunction with the NHPCI index were suggested. The derived deterioration curve shows that life expectancies for the preventive maintenance level was 8.34 years. The general life expectancy was 12.77 years and located in the statistical interval of 11.10-15.58 years at a 95.5% reliability level. CONCLUSIONS : This study originates and contributes to suggesting a simple way to develop a pavement deterioration model using the total condition index that considers road user satisfaction. A definition for level of service system and the corresponding life expectancies are useful for building long-term maintenance plan, especially in Life Cycle Cost Analysis (LCCA) work.

Predicting ship manoeuvrability is attracting widespread interest in the field of analyzing maritime accident to simulate a highly accurate track of a ship in abnormal accident situations. This study investigated the manoeuvrability of a ship in abnormally heeled condition. Free Running Model Tests (FRMT) with 1/65.83 scaled KCS (KRISO container ship) were conducted in three heeled conditions; $35^{\circ}$ turning circle tests and 20/20 zigzag manoeuvring tests were conducted in $0^{\circ}$, $-10^{\circ}$, and $-20^{\circ}$ conditions. The test results showed that the heeled to port condition significantly affected starboard turning and zigzag characteristics; the tactical diameters in the turning circle tests decreased, and the first overshoot angles in the zigzag tests increased when the ship was in the larger heeled condition. These results indicate that the roll angle of the ship considerably affects yaw rate and speed decrease of the ship. The turning and zigzag indices from trajectory and navigation data in the study were provided for benchmark data sets.

Madecassoside, an active ingredient extracted from Centella asiatica, is used for treatment of various skin disorders in humans. However, the effect of madecassoside on the skin of dogs and cats has not been studied yet. The purpose of this study was to evaluate clinical efficacy of topical madecassoside cream in dogs and cats with skin diseases. A total of twenty-one dogs and ten cats with various skin diseases were included in the study. The 1% topical madecassoside cream was applied to the animal's skin lesion at least once a day for 7 days, and the skin condition was evaluated before the application of madecassoside cream (day 0) and 7 days after the application (day 7). The skin condition was scored by five clinical indices: canine atopic dermatitis extent and severity index-4 (CADESI-4), coat condition, pruritus, scale, and general condition. In dogs, all five clinical indices (CADESI-4, coat condition, pruritus, scale, and general condition) were significantly decreased on day 7 compared to those on day 0 (p < 0.0001, p < 0.05, p < 0.001, p < 0.01, and p < 0.05, respectively). In cats, the CADESI-4 and scale were significantly decreased on day 7 compared to those on day 0 (p < 0.01 and p < 0.05, respectively). No adverse effects were observed during the trial period in the dogs and cats included in this study. The results of this study demonstrate that the topical madecassoside cream is applicable to skin lesions in dogs and cats.

By strengthening dichotomy condition and weakening decay conditions, we show that a four term 2n-th order differential operator with unbounded coefficients is nonlimit-point. Using stringent conditions we show that the deficiency index of this operator is determined by the behaviour of the coefficients themselves. Similarly, we prove the absence of singular continuous spectrum and that the absolutely continuous spectrum has multiplicity two.

다중분광카메라의 기술 개발로 인해 구조적 특성뿐만 아니라 생화학적, 생리적 특성을 가지는 식생지수를 다양한 공간 규모에서 활용할 수 있게 되었다. 이에 본 연구는 스트레스를 받은 노지작물을 대상으로 지상 초분광계 및 무인기 영상 기반 구조적, 생화학적, 생리적 계열의 식생지수 반응을 평가하였다. 마늘을 대상으로 서로 다른 생육시기에 고농도의 제초제를 살포하여 약해 처리하였으며, 정상 생육에 비해 지상부 건물중이 46.9~84.5% 감소하는 등 큰 피해가 나타났다. 제초제를 살포한 처리구에서 근적외선 분광반사도 값은 꾸준하게 감소하였으며, 구조적 식생지수에서 작물의 약해 피해가 명확하게 표현되었다. 생화학적 식생지수의 경우 일부 지수를 제외하고는 작물의 피해 상태를 표현하였으나 생리적 식생지수는 잎이 고사하고 드러나는 멀칭비닐의 영향으로 약해 피해를 해석하기에 어려움이 있었다. 제초제 살포 후 서로 다른 공간 규모에서 관측된 식생지수의 감소율 차이는 구조적 식생지수의 경우 평균적으로 2.3%로 나타났으며, 정규화 식생지수의 경우 1.3~4.1%의 분포를 보였다. 비록 생리적 식생지수가 작물 스트레스에 민감하다고 알려졌지만, 노지작물의 경우 작물 스트레스 종류와 재배 환경에 따라 적합한 식생지수를 활용하여야 한다는 것, 공간 규모에 따른 오차를 최소화하기 위해서는 정규화 식생지수를 활용해야 한다는 것을 확인하였다.

한국 서해안 해역에서 2011년 9월부터 2012년 1월까지 수평망식으로 양성한 굴의 산란기 이후 생태 생리학적 변화를 조사하였다. 조사 지역은 충남 태안 연안의 의항, 신두리, 이원의 두 곳을 선정하여 생식소지수, 조직학적 분석, 생식소와 폐각근 내의 RNA/DNA의 양과 비, condition index (CI), 연체부지수 등을 분석하여 건강도를 판정하였다. 연구결과 의항에서 수평망식으로 양식한 굴은 다른 지역의 굴과 생리학적 차이를 보였다. 즉, 폐각근 내 RNA/DNA의 양 및 비가 조사기간 동안 지속적으로 감소하였고 가장 낮은 CI와 연체부지수를 보였다. 이원지역의 St. 1과 2에서 양식한 굴은 산란기 이후 빠른 회복력을 보여 RNN/DNA가 증가하였고, 연체부지수와 CI 또한 10월까지 급격히 증가한 이후 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 신두리 지역의 굴은 연체부지수와 CI가 10월까지 급격하게 감소하였다. 그러나 이러한 건강도 판정요소와는 다르게 폐각근 내 RNA/DNA 비는 단백질의 증가 양상처럼 10월까지 지속적으로 증가하는 것으로 조사되었다. 특이한 점은 신두리와 이원의 St. 1에서는 12월까지도 부분방출기의 개체가 관찰이 되었다. 모든 결과를 종합하여 볼 때 본 연구에서 사용된 RNA/DNA 양과 비의 변화, 연체부지수, CI 등의 간단한 지표만으로도 양식 굴의 건강상태, 산란 후 회복과정에 관한 정보 취득이 가능하였다. 따라서 이와 같은 자료를 통하여 우량종패 생산을 위한 굴 어미관리가 가능하고, 또한 소비자들이 선호할 수 있는 양질의 굴 생산이 가능할 것으로 판단되므로 향후에도 다년간 연구조사가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

In this study, the rock mass classification results from the face mapping and the resistivity inversion data are compared and analyzed for the reliability investigation of the determination of the rock support type based on the surface electrical survey. To get the quantitative correlation, rock engineering indices such as RCR(rock condition rating), N(Rock mass number), Q-system based on RMR(rock mass rating) are calculated. Kriging method as a post processing technique for global optimization is used to improve its resolution. The result of correlation analysis shows that the geological condition estimated from 2D electrical resistivity survey is coincident globally with the trend of rock type except for a few local areas. The correlation between the results of 3D electrical resistivity survey and the rock mass classification turns out to be very high. It can be concluded that 3D electrical resistivity survey is powerful to set up the reliable rock support type.

A novel index representing burden distribution form in the blast furnace is developed and index estimation model is built with an empirical modeling method to monitor inner condition of the furnace without expensive sensors. To find the best combination of index and modeling method, two candidates for the index and four modeling methods have been examined. Results have shown that 3-D index have more resolution in describing the distribution form than 1-D index and ANN model produces smallest RMSE due to nonlinearity between the indices and charging mode. Although ANN has shown the best prediction accuracy in this study, PLS can be a good alternative due to its advantages in generalization capability, consistency, simplicity and training time. The second best result of PLS in the prediction results supports this fact.

The stochastic phenomena of traffic network condition, such as traffic speed and density, are affected not only by exogenous traffic control but also by endogenous changes in service time during congestion. In this paper, we propose a mixed M/G/1 queuing model by introducing a condition-varying parameter of traffic congestion to reflect structural changes in the traffic network. We also develop congestion indices to evaluate network efficiency in terms of traffic flow and economic cost in traffic operating system using structure-changing queuing model, and perform scenario analysis according to various traffic network improvement policies. Empirical analysis using Korean highway traffic operating system shows that our suggested model better captures structural changes in the traffic queue. The scenario analysis also shows that occasional reversible lane operation during peak times can be more efficient and feasible than regular lane extension in Korea.
