It is very important to decide probability precipitation that is used as hydraulic structure design and target rainfall for urban disaster prevention. Especially, National Emergency Management Agency (NAMA) announced target rainfall from probability precipitation in korea on city and district level. It make use to performance evaluation of disaster prevention and planning of development for disasters prevention capacity target. In this study was calculated target rainfall that is duration 1~3 hour based unit of gu (borough) by point and regional frequency analysis using rainfall data of Surface Synoptic Stations (SSS) and Automatic Weather Stations (AWS). The result of this study can utilized as a reference to related business such as disaster capability assessment and achievement of prevention capacity target against disasters. And it also will be contribute to establishment of prevention capacity target against disasters.

In this study, the reliability of the lateral spring constant (k1) applied during design of pile foundation for bridge abutment was evaluated. To do this, the reliability of the factors related to the prediction of the lateral displacement of the abutment pile foundation, which was designed based on the displacement method proposed by Chang (1937), was analyzed. The data used for analysis were the design statements of ◯◯ bridge and ◯◯ IC2 bridge. Then, it was derived by comparing with the numerical analysis (p-y analysis) based on the basic data.

As environmental pollution becomes serious, natural disasters are frequent and damage is increasing. Also, due to population overcrowding, social disasters are frequent, and it is difficult to predict due to the variety of area, extent, and damage. As the disasters have diversified and the scale of the damage has increased, the scale of evacuees and the period of evacuation have diversified. Should be provide facilities that will be protected from second damages to victims who have lost their homes quickly. It supports a prefabricated house, but it is difficult to supply it. In this study, the ultimate goal is to plan an outdoor temporary housing facility that can supply quickly when the capacity of the evacuation facility is insufficient or the evacuation facility is insufficient.

This paper relates to an IoT device system that detects sound source and estimates the sound source location. More specifically, it is a system using a sound source direction detection device that can accurately detect the direction of a sound source by analyzing the difference of arrival time of a sound source signal collected from microphone sensors, and track the generation direction of a sound source using an IoT sensor. As a result of a performance test by generating a sound source, it was confirmed that it operates very accurately within 140dB of the acoustic detection area, within 1 second of response time, and within 1° of directional angle resolution. In the future, based on this design plan, we plan to commercialize it by improving the reliability by reflecting the artificial intelligence algorithm through big data analysis.

As disasters in the modem era become a large scale and complexity, no single entity can manage them. Instead collective cooperation between civilian, enterprise, school and government sectors is significantly needed, along with a well prepared mechanism. Thus, I attempt to construct the applicable network of civilian, enterprise, school and government sectors for disaster management through exemplary case studies of established countries as well as Korea's current operations and its drawbacks, based upon a networking design of disaster management organizations as belows: Firstly, it is cooperation and coordination among relevant organizations that are required essentially in the new era, in view of formative condition of necessary environment for civil participation. The cooperation and coordination can be made only through the network of civilian, enterprise, school and government sectors. Secondly, in order to build up the network, major roles and tasks which should be done by civilian, enterprise, school and government sectors respectively are listed based upon a stage of disaster management. Thirdly, operation models of a safety monitoring unit, a disaster prevention unit, a emergency response unit, and a rehabilitation unit are proposed in line with the network of civilian, enterprise, school and government sectors in regional base.

Introduction of wave model, considered the effect of tide, wind and wave induced currents at the coastal waters of complex bathymetry, is a very important factor for most coastal engineering design and disaster protection problems. As the steady state spectral wave model could simulate depth induced wave shoaling and refraction, current induced refraction effect, steepness induced wave breaking, diffraction, wind wave growth, and wave-wave interaction that redistribute energy, this would support and compensate the gap in the real field of design where other wave models could not deal and cause wrong estimation. In this study, for that sense, we applied the spectral wave model t the large coastal waters near Gaduck Island where the Busan new port construction project is going on, for better understanding and analysis of wave transformation process. We also compared the simulation results with the calculated from the existing model. From such a trial of this study, we hope that broader and sager use of the spectral model in the area of port design and disaster prevention system come through in near future.

The unbalance currents flow the High Temperature Superconducting (HTS) power cable caused by asymmetrical fault, harmonic distortion and unbalanced load. That problem causes additional loss and leakage field in the HTS power cable, and deteriorates the electric power quality and stability. In addition, large amounts of unbalanced current can cause negative sequence and ground relays to operate. This paper presents an analysis unbalanced three-phase current distribution in HTS power cable caused by unbalanced load condition and grounding methods using PSCAD/EMTDC. The results obtained through the analysis would provide important data for the design of HTS power cables and valid information for their installation in power system.

Time-domain commercial codes are widely used to evaluate the seismic behavior of tunnels. Those tools offer a good insight into the performance and the failure mechanism of tunnels under earthquake loading. Viscous damping is generally employed in the dynamic analysis to consider damping at very small strains in some cases, and the Rayleigh damping is commonly used one. Many procedures to obtain the damping parameters have been proposed but they are seldom discussed. This paper illustrates the influence of the Rayleigh damping formulation on the tunnel visco-elastic behavior under earthquake. Four Rayleigh damping determination procedures and three soil shear velocity profiles are accounted for. The results show significant differences in the free-field and in the tunnel response caused by different procedures. The difference is somewhat decreased when the soil site fundamental frequency is increased. The conventional method which consists of using solely the first soil natural mode to determine the viscous damping parameters may lead to an unsafe seismic design of the tunnel. In general, using five times site fundamental frequency to obtain the damping formulation can provide relatively conservative results.

Korea Government promotes the installation of buffering retention facility to protect the water environment and prevent the environmental contamination event by toxic materials. Although the buffering retention facility is very important to protect the natural environment through the retention of accidental pollution and initial runoff, much study has not been done to suggest the guide line for the design of the facility. In this study, we suggested the rational items for the design of buffering retention facility based on many experts after we investigated and compared the previous results of many design materials.
