This paper presents the numerical study to examine characteristics of fluid flow and solute transport in a rough fracture subject to effective normal stresses. The aperture distribution is generated by using the self-affine fractal model. In order to represent a nonlinear relationship between the supported normal stress and the fracture aperture, we combine a simple mechanical model with the local flow model. The solute transport is simulated using the random walk particle following algorithm. Results of numerical simulations show that the flow is significantly affected by the geometry of aperture distribution varying with the effective normal stress level while it is slightly affected by the fractal dimension that determines the degree of the fracture surface roughness. However, solute transport is influenced by the effective normal stress as well as the fracture surface roughness.

The pumping test analysis on 28 pumping test data in Duksan hot-spring area was performed using the fractal model, the leaky fractal model, and the steady-state dual-porosity fractal model. The fractional flow dimension 1.9 or 2.0 was determined in the central put of the hot spring and the fractional flow dimension 1.5-1.7 in the marginal area. For the flow dimension 2.0, the correlation between the transmissivity and the productivity index by the aquifer loss was much better than that between the transmissivity and the specific yield by the total drawdown. On the other hand, for the flow dimension 1.9, the correlation between the generalized transmissivity and the productivity index was very similar to that between the generalized transmissivity and the specific yield.

본 연구의 목적은 고전적 순간단위도 모형 중의 하나인 Nash 모형의 매개변수와 하천망의 동적 Fractal 차원 사이의 관계를 체계적으로 분석하여 해당 매개변수의 수문학적 의미를 추론해 보는 것이다. Nash 모형의 경우, GIUH 이론과의 결합을 통하여 Horton 비를 기반으로 한 두 매개변수의 지형학적 추정 방법이 일찍부터 제안되어 왔다 (Rosso, 1984; Bhunya, 2008). 특히 Liu(1992)는 2차원 자유 Euclidean 공간 내에서 percolation cluster 모형의 응집구조와 유역의 배수구조 사이의 비교를 통하여 하천망의 Fractal 차원을 정적 Fractal 차원과 동적 Fractal 차원으로 구분하고 양자의 수문학적 의미에 대하여 강조한 바 있다. 본 연구에서는 문헌 조사 (Morisawa, 1962; Marani et al., 1991; Rosso et al., 1991)를 통하여 수집한 비교적 신뢰성 있는 국외 하천망들에 관한 정보를 기반으로 Nash 모형의 매개변수와 하천망의 동적 Fractal 차원 사이의 관계를 분석해 보았다. 주요한 결과로서 Nash 모형의 형상 매개변수와 하천망의 Fractal 차원 사이에는 밀접한 상관관계가 존재함을 알 수 있었으며 이를 통하여 하천망의 Fractal 차원을 이용하여 해당 매개변수를 직접 추정할 수 있는 관계식을 제시할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 또한 분광 차원과 Nash 모형의 첨두 좌표 사이의 관계를 통하여 겉보기에서로 다른 유역들 사이에 존재할 수 있는 수문학적 상사성을 평가할 수 있는 기준의 수립 역시 본 연구과정을 통하여 제시할 수 있으로 판단된다. 후속 연구로서 국내외 다수 유역들에 대한 지형분석을 통하여 본 연구에서 얻은 결과의 보편성을 검정하고 수문학적 자료들에 대한 검증을 통하여 Nash 모형을 기반으로 한 다양한 수문학적 모형들의 개선 방안을 제시해 보고자 한다.

Recently, many researchers have been involved in finding deterministic equations which can accurately predict future event, based on chaotic theory, or fractal theory. The theory says that some events which seem very random but internally deterministic can be accurately predicted by fractal equations. In contrast to the conventional methods, such as AR model, MA, model, or ARIMA model, the fractal equation attempts to discover a deterministic order inherent in time series data set. In discovering deterministic order, researchers have found that neural networks are much more effective than the conventional statistical models. Even though prediction accuracy of the network can be different depending on the topological structure and modification of the algorithms, many researchers asserted that the neural network systems outperforms other systems, because of non-linear behaviour of the network models, mechanisms of massive parallel processing, generalization capability based on adaptive learning. However, recent survey shows that prediction accuracy of the forecasting models can be determined by the model structure and data structures. In the experiments based on actual economic data sets, it was found that the prediction accuracy of the neural network model is similar to the performance level of the conventional forecasting model. Especially, for the data set which is deterministically chaotic, the AR model, a conventional statistical model, was not significantly different from the MLP model, a neural network model. This result shows that the forecasting model. This result shows that the forecasting model a, pp.opriate to a prediction task should be selected based on characteristics of the time series data set. Analysis of the characteristics of the data set was performed by fractal analysis, measurement of Hurst index, and measurement of Lyapunov exponents. As a conclusion, a significant difference was not found in forecasting future events for the time series data which is deterministically chaotic, between a conventional forecasting model and a typical neural network model.

A new Rockwell hardness (HRC) model using a volumetric parameter by a least square and fractal interpolation method is suggested. The results are also investigated in comparison to real measured hardness data. For this purpose, the measurement of an indented volume is performed using a confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM), and the captured height encoded image (HEI) is used as an original surface for the calculation of the indented volume. After configuring the surface, the constructed volume is calculated and used as an independent variable for HRC hardness modeling. The hardness model is established using an experimental modeling technique involving a least square algorithm and fractal interpolating model, and this suggested model can be used to reliably predict the Rockwell hardness. These techniques can also be applied to the modeling of the Brinnell and Vickers hardnesses using a volumetric variable.

A new nonstationary dual-porosity fractal model is presented which simulates a nonsteady state block-to-fissure flow with or without fracture skin between the block and the fissure in a fractal aquifer. The model includes weilbore storage and well loss effects on the production well. Type curves for different flow dimensions with different values of hydraulic parameters are created. The application of the model to experimental data in fractured aquifer is described.

This study presents work to utilize RADARSAT SAR image for forecast oil slick trajectory movement. The fractal dimension algorithm used to detect oil slick. The Doppler frequency shift and quasi-linear model was used to simulate a current pattern from RADARSAT image. The Fay’s algorithm of oil slick spreading was developed based on a Doppler frequency shift model. Thus, the study shows that fractal dimension algorithm discriminated the oil slick from the surrounding water features. The quasi-linear model shows that the current pattern can be simulated from single RADARSAT image. The oil slick trajectory model shows that after 48 hrs, the oil slick parcels deposited along the coastal waters.

In this paper we propose a fractal analysis based on the discrete wavelet transform. It is well known that Fourier Transform is widely used for frequency analysis of random signal. However, the frequency domain is not used for expressing the sudden signal change and non-stationary signal at the time-axis by this method. Maximum value in the wavelet modules can be expressed by the Lipschitz exponent, which is useful to represent the characteristics of signal or the edge of an image. It is possible to reconstruct the original image only by using the few maximum points. The v possible image It iusing oil was acquired to interpret the maximum value. ufter that, it was applied to the v possible image of a ship model. In addition, the fractal dimens by by the conlapse process of the sediment particle was examined. In this paper, the fractal dimens by has been obtained by the maximum value and the experiment obtained from the visualized image also acquired the same result as existing methods.

In this paper, we propose "InFra-VC", an interactive Fractal viewer on virtual reality system. Fractal impresses us very much and is expected to model some natural phenomenon effectively. Therefore, their visualization is necessary for us to study their beauty as well as structure. InFra-VC can represents a cutting plane of the fractal figure, so that the user can see and enjoy its internal structure. Moving position of the cutting surface, we can easily understand its internal structure. Additionally, InFra-VC can store situation as VRML format file at any time. This feature enables us to see the structure by a VRML viewer on common PC.

Globalization of market and diversification of customers' needs make enterprises to collaboration of participants in supply chain. To establish collaboration, supply chain must have the flexibility and reconfigurability, which are supported by fractal based supply chain management (FrSCM). In this paper, base on the FrSCM, formulation of trust model among the enterprises in the supply chain, and development of profit sharing strategies in the supply chain based on the trust model are investigated. To evaluate trust model, generation of enterprise's goal and its description, extraction and systematic composition of trust factors and trust evaluation are investigated. Based on the developed model, we developed the fuzzy inference engine to evaluate the trust value in terms of numerical value. And then revenue sharing strategies are developed based on the fractal concept and trust model for the collaborative SCM. The fractal concept is used to obtain the optimal production and transportation plans. In addition, the trust model will be integrated into the RS model. In such an RS model, the supply chain will obtain the maximum total profit and profit of each participant depends on its trust value.
