  • In the hope of realizing carbon neutrality, Korea has established the goal of expanding the supply of hydrogen electric vehicles through a roadmap to revitalize the hydrogen economy. A prerequisite for successful supply expansion is securing the safety of hydrogen electric vehicles. Certain parts, such as the hydrogen transport pipe and tank, in hydrogen electric vehicles are exposed to high-pressure hydrogen gas over long periods of time, so the hydrogen enters the grain boundary of material, resulting in a degradation of the parts referred to as hydrogen embrittlement. In addition, since the safety of parts utilizing hydrogen varies depending on the type of material used and its environmental characteristics, the necessity for the enactment of a hydrogen embrittlement regulation has emerged and is still being discussed as a Global Technical Regulation (GTR). In this paper, we analyze a hydrogen compatibility material evaluation method discussed in GTR and present a direction for the development of Korean-type hydrogen compatibility material evaluation methods.

  • More recently, the Green Computing have become a important issue in all fields of industry. The energy efficiency cannot be over-emphasized. Microprocessor companies such as Intel Corporation design processors with taking both energy efficiency and performance into account. Nevertheless, general computer users typically utilize the CPU overclocking to enhance the application performance. The overclocking is traditionally considered as an evil in terms of the power consumption. In this paper, we present effective CPU overclocking schemes, which raise CPU frequency while keeping current CPU supply voltage for energy reduction and performance improvement. The proposed scheme gain both energy reduction and performance improvement. Evaluation results show that our proposed schemes reduce the processor execution time as much as 17% and total computer system energy as much as 5%, respectively. In addition, our effective CPU overclocking schemes reduce the Energy Delay Product (EDP) as much as 22%, on average.

  • 도시에 불투수면적이 증가하고, 기후변화가 극심해져감에 따라 홍수 및 열섬현상과 같은 도시의 물 문제가 발생하고 있다. 이를 해결하기 위한 정책의 일환으로 우리나라의 녹색건축인증제도(Green Standard for Energy and Environmental Design, G-SEED)에서는 물순환 관리를 평가하고 있다. 하지만, 현재 G-SEED의 평가방법을 살펴보면 빗물관리시설의 설치 정도로 평가하고 있고, 강우 특성 또한 고려되고 있지 않다. 그러므로 본 연구에서는 G-SEED의 빗물관리 및 이용 항목에 대해 수문 모델을 통해 효과를 정량화함으로써 성능에 따라 평가할 수 있는 방법을 제안하였다. 빗물관리 항목에서는 유출저감률을, 빗물이용 항목에서는 빗물이용률을 평가지표로 선정하였고, 각 평가인자를 산출하기 위하여 개념모델을 적용하였다. 빗물이용시설의 경우 초기우수배제장치 용량과 필터 효율에 따른 빗물유입량의 변화와 급수인원에 따른 수요량 변화를 고려한 수문모델을 개발하였고, 수요량과 빗물저장조 용량에 따른 유출저감률과 빗물이용률을 알아보기 위해 MATLAB을 이용하여 모의해보았다. 또한, 옥상녹화의 경우에는 강우, 저류, 증발산, 유출을 고려한 수문흐름모델을 적용하였고, 토층의 두께와 배수(저장) 층의 용량에 따라 모의하여 평가기준을 선정하였다. 제안된 수문모델의 검증을 위하여 서울대학교 기숙사와 35동 옥상녹화의 실측데이터를 비교하였고, 적용성 평가를 위해 RMSE(Root Mean Square Error)와 NSE(Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency)를 이용하였다. 본 연구에서 제안된 방법을 통해 빗물관리시설의 수문학적 성능에 따른 평가가 가능해질 것이며 설계자와 건축가들로 하여금 실질적인 효과를 내는 시설을 설치하게끔 유도할 수 있을 것이다.

  • 급격한 도시화와 기후변화로 인해 기존 물순환 체계가 왜곡됨에 따라 저영향개발(Low Impact Development) 기법의 필요성이 증가하고 있는 추세이다. LID 요소 중 하나인 옥상녹화는 국내에 도입이 많이 되었고 적정 설계인자를 설정하기 위해 지속적으로 연구를 수행하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 옥상녹화 설계인자의 설정과 수문·식생·토양을 고려한 시나리오 구축을 통해 국내 물순환 모형인 K-LIDM을 이용하여 옥상녹화의 정량적 물순환 효율성 분석을 수행하였다. 대상유역은 한국 그린인프라 저영향개발센터 내 옥상녹화 실험장으로 옥상녹화에서 계측하고 있는 측정값을 기반으로 K-LIDM 모형 검보정을 수행하고 옥상녹화의 설계인자에 따른 시나리오를 통해 수문학적 성능평가를 수행하였다. 단기강우 시나리오를 적용하였을 때 옥상녹화는 일반콘트리트 옥상에 비해 5.25 ~ 36.48%의 유출저감률이 산정되었으며, 유출저감 한계효율은 지속시간 60분, 120분, 180분 일 때 각각 8.93%, 6.17%, 5.25%로 산정되었다. 장기강우 시나리오를 적용하였을 때는 연평균 53.54%의 유출저감률이 산정되었다. 또한 토심의 증가에 따른 유출량 감소는 관목>교목>지피 식물 순으로 나타났으며, 토심이 1cm 증가할 때의 저감유출랴은 지피 식물의 경우 0.0002㎥/s, 교목의 경우 0.0005㎥/s, 관목의 경우 0.0008㎥/s로 나타났다. 옥상녹화는 건물 설계에 따른 적재하중과 환경조건, 식물선정, 생육에 많은 영향을 받는 기술요소이므로 다양한 시나리오를 통한 수문학적 성능평가가 필요시 된다. 본 연구결과는 정량적 옥상녹화시스템 효율성 검증을 실시하기 위한 옥상녹화 설계가이드라인에서 고려사항을 제시할 수 있는 기준이 될 것이라고 기대된다.

  • Despite the significant features of fiber-reinforced cementitious composites (FRCCs), including better mechanical, fractural, and durability performance, their high content of cement has restricted their use in the construction industry. Although ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) is considered the main supplementary cementitious material, its slow pozzolanic reaction stands against its application. The addition of nano-sized mineral modifiers, including nano-silica (NS), is an alternative to address the drawbacks of using GGBFS. The main object of this empirical and numerical research is to examine the effect of NS on the strain-hardening behavior of cementitious composites; ten mixes were designed, and five levels of NS were considered. This study proposes a new method, using a four-point bending test to assess the use of nano-silica (NS) on the flexural behavior, first cracking strength, fracture energy, and micromechanical parameters including interfacial friction bond strength and maximum bridging stress. Digital image correlation (DIC) was used for monitoring the initiation and propagation of the cracks. In addition, to attain a deep comprehension of fiber/matrix interaction, scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis was used. It was discovered that using nano-silica (NS) in cementitious materials results in an enhancement in the matrix toughness, which prevents multiple cracking and, therefore, strain-hardening. In addition, adding NS enhanced the interfacial transition zone between matrix and fiber, leading to a higher interfacial friction bond strength, which helps multiple cracking in the composite due to the hydrophobic nature of polypropylene (PP) fibers. The findings of this research provide insight into finding the optimum percent of NS in which both ductility and high tensile strength of the composites would be satisfied. As a concluding remark, a new criterion is proposed, showing that the optimum value of nano-silica is 2%. The findings and proposed method of this study can facilitate the design and utilization of green cementitious composites in structures.

  • The utilization of geopolymer recycled aggregate concrete (GRAC) as the infilled core of the concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) columns provides superior economic and environmental benefits. However, limited research exists within the field of geopolymer recycled aggregate concrete considered a green and sustainable material, in addition to the limitation of the design guidelines to predict the behavior of such an innovative new material combination. Moreover, the behavior of high-strength concrete is different from the normal-strength one, especially when there is another material of high-strength properties, such as the steel tube. This paper aims to investigate the behavior of the axially loaded square high-strength GRACFST columns through the nonlinear finite element analysis (NLFEA). A total of thirty-two specimens were simulated using ABAQUS/Standard software with three main variables: recycled aggregate replacement ratio (0, 30, and 50) %, width-to-thickness ratios (52.0, 32.0, 23.4, and 18.7), and length-to-width ratio (3, 5, 9, and 12). During the analysis, the response in terms of the axial load versus the longitudinal strain was recorded and plotted. In addition, various mechanical properties were calculated and analyzed. In view of the results, it has been demonstrated that the mechanical properties of high-strength GRACFST columns such as ultimate load-bearing capacity, compressive stiffness, energy absorption capacity, and ductility increase with the increase of the steel tube thickness owing to the improvement of the confinement effect of the steel tube. In contrast, the incorporation of the recycled aggregate adversely affected the mentioned properties except the ductility, while the increase of the recycled aggregate replacement ratio improved the column's ductility. Moreover, it has been found that the increase in the length-to-width ratio significantly reduced both the failure strain and the energy absorption capacity. Finally, the obtained NLFEA results of the ultimate load-bearing capacity were compared with the corresponding predicted capacities by numerous codes. It has been concluded that AISC, ACI, and EC give conservative predictions for the ultimate load-bearing capacity since the confinement effect was not considered by these codes.

  • In this paper, we propose a framework for improving the performance of semantic segmentation of agricultural multispectral image using feature fusion techniques. Most of the semantic segmentation models being studied in the field of smart farms are trained on RGB images and focus on increasing the depth and complexity of the model to improve performance. In this study, we go beyond the conventional approach and optimize and design a model with multispectral and attention mechanisms. The proposed method fuses features from multiple channels collected from a UAV along with a single RGB image to increase feature extraction performance and recognize complementary features to increase the learning effect. We study the model structure to focus on feature fusion and compare its performance with other models by experimenting with favorable channels and combinations for crop images. The experimental results show that the model combining RGB and NDVI performs better than combinations with other channels.

  • Ecosystem services (ES) are the benefits that people obtain from ecosystems. Traditional ES assessment methods have focused on the supply of ES, using biophysical data. However, these methods often fail to capture the full value of ES, which is also determined by social and cultural factors. This study proposes a new approach to ES assessment that incorporates socio-cultural perspectives. The study was conducted in Seoul, South Korea. A survey was conducted of 1,805 residents of Seoul to assess their satisfaction with ecosystem services. Exploratory factor analysis was used to identify bundles of ES that were perceived as important by residents. A revised importance-satisfaction analysis was used to calculate the urgency level of each bundle. The results of the study showed that the 21 ES that were considered in the survey could be grouped into three bundles: urban green area-based, biodiversity-based, and resilience-based. The urgency level analysis showed that some bundles were more important than others, and that some bundles were more urgent than others. The findings of this study have several implications. First, they suggest that a socio-cultural approach to ES assessment can provide a more comprehensive and accurate assessment of ES. Second, they show that this approach can be used to identify areas where ES management is most needed. Third, they suggest that this approach could be used to inform ES management and policy decisions.
