An intensity survey on the 13 December 1996 Yeogweol earthquake has mode for 262 locations throughout southern part of Korean peninsula, then we investigated attenuation properties in the south Korean region as well as intensities distribution. In this study, intensities are estimated to be from II to possibly VIII. The iso-seismal intensity map we obtained shows general pattern of intensity distribution in the south korean region quite clearly despite the inherent uncertainties included in the process of intensity estimation. In case of intensity larger than VI, considerable damages such as fracturing walls are frequently reported. One of the significant feature of this intensity map is, considering its magnitude 4.5 reported by KMA, the felt area is unusually large covering most of the Korean Peninsular except Cheju island. This result indicates either the magnitude is under estimated or the focal depth is much deeper than expected. Assuming indicates either the magnitude is under estimated or the focal depth is much deeper than expected. Assuming shallow earthquake whose focal depth is by iso-seismal contour lines for intensity IV to VII, respectively. To resolve this ambiguity, more reliable estimation of focal depth and magnitude by using telesesmic instrumental records should be made in the future.

Attitude is very difficult to be measured directly; therefore it must be inferred frrom assumed relationship with observable indicators. In some aspects, behavior represents the attitude of a person about a thing, person or issue. In this paper a tool has been devised to measure the attitude of contractor in ongoing project. However, the tool has been tested in a completed technical school construction project in Nepal. The results show that the tool can reasonably measure the attitude of the contractors and can be helpful for the owners to control the projects.

It is often necessary that the joints characteristics should be determined in the early stage of the vehicle body design. The researches on identification of joints in a vehicle body have been performed until the recent year. In this study, the joint characteristics of vehicle structure were expressed as the condensed matrix forms from the full joint stiffness matrix. The condensed joint stiffness matrix was applied to typical T-type and Edge-type joints, and the usefulness was confirmed. In addition, it was applied to the real center pillar model and the full vehicle body in order to validate the practical application.

Autonomous speedsprayer operation in an orchard was conducted using a fuzzy logic controller (FLC). Orchard image analysis and signals of ultrasonic sensors were processed in real time. The speedsprayer was modified to be steered by two hydraulic cylinders. The FLC has two inputs of direction of running and distance from obstacles. Operation time of the hydraulic cylinders were inferred as output of the FLC. Field test results showed that the speedsprayer could be autonomously operated by the FLC along with the image processing and the ultrasonic sensors. The ultrasonic sensors didn't contribute to the improvement of guidance performance, but the speedsprayer could avoid trees or obstacles in emergent situations with them.

경제성과 압접성능의 우수성 때문에 일반 산업기계, 방위산업기계 및 우주항공기계등의 부품생산에 응용되고 있는 마찰 용접에 있어서, 현재 주 관심사 중의 하나는 용접강도에 대한 신뢰성 높은 공정중 비파괴 검출이며 이들의 실용화를 위한 정량적 해석이다. 그러나 이러한 연구는 아직 개발 완성되지 못하고 있다. 본 연구에서는, AE법에 의한 용접강도의 공정중 비파괴적 QC시스템 개발을 최종 목적으로 한 설계자료를 얻기 위하여, 이종강의 봉과 봉, 관과 관의 마찰용접강도와 AE 총누적량에 용접조건이 미치는 영향이 실험적으로 조사되었고, 회전 속도를 매개 변수로 하여 용접강도와 AE 총누적량과의 정량관계가 수립되었다.

This paper presents an effective alternative K-paths calculation method based on a Evolution Program (EP). We developed efficient genetic operators for path calculation. A major problem of the existing approach(similarities among the paths) can be resolved using EP's. The performance of the suggested method is evaluated and compared with the k-th shortest path for the virtual road network model by computer simulation. The results of computational experiments of the suggested method are found to be satisfactory in terms of the dispersion of alternatives.

Journal of the Korean Meteorological Society (JKMS) is confronted by a huge challenge. Following the long-term plan of the Korean Meteorological Society (KMS), the JKMS has entered a new era in 2006 in the sense that the all papers are published in English. Tremendous efforts are needed to accomplish the original goal of JKMS becoming an internationally recognized journal. A forum was held in this connection with the subject of the vitalization of the JKMS at the Spring Meeting of the Korean Meteorological Society held at Gwangju, 2006. A number of special topics were presented at the forum and active and vigorous discussions followed. Professor Dong-Kyou Lee presented strategies to increase the number of submission to the JKMS. Professor Seon Ki Park gave a presentation on how JKMS can grow into the SCI journal. The Editor-in-Chief of JKMS, professor H. Joe Kwon introduced the on-line review system of JKMS which had launched in 2006. This manuscript is presented on the basis of the presentations and the discussions at the forum for the purpose of finding the way in aiming the direction of the long-term goal of the KMS.
