India is a developing nation and heavily spends on the development of wind power plants to meet the national energy demand. The objective of this paper is to investigate wind power potential of Ennore site using wind data collected over a period of two years by three parameter Weibull distribution. The Weibull parameters are estimated using maximum likelihood, least square method and moment method and the accuracy is determined using R² and root mean square error values. The site specific capacity factor is calculated by the mathematical model developed by three parameter Weibull distribution at different hub heights above the ground level. At last, the wind energy economic analysis is carried out using capacity factor at 30 m, 40 m and 50 m height for different wind turbine models. The analysis showed that the site has potential to install utility wind turbines to generate energy at the lowest cost per kilowatt-hour at height of 50 m. This research provides information of wind characteristics of potential sites and helps in selecting suitable wind turbine.

Waterproofing materials and construction methods have been developed and applied to various construction sites since the past. However, there many cases where the waterproofing performance is not satisfactory, leading to continuous water leakage. It has been observed that a key reason for this is because waterproofing method and material selection is not optimized in terms of the appropriate application area and environmental degradation factors. This paper proposes that future selection of waterproofing methods should consider the following evaluation criteria; 1) waterproof performance evaluation according to site conditions, 2) evaluation of construction method, 3) manufacturing and maintenance of waterproofing systems.

포구속도는 총포탄약의 평가에 있어 가장 중요한 계측항목들 중 하나이다. 포구속도는 포탄이 포구를 떠나는 시점의 속도로 정의된다. 특히, 포구속도는 추진제의 성능과 밀접하게 관련이 있기 때문에 정확한 측정이 요구된다. 포구속도의 측정에는 도플러 레이더가 사용되나, 도플러 레이더 신호의 품질은 시험장 환경에 의존한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 도플러 레이더의 신호 품질을 악화시키는 클러터를 시험장 구조 및 신호처리 방법의 개선을 통해 제거하는 방법을 제시하였다. 개선된 신호처리 방법의 적용을 위해 도플러 레이더의 원시 도플러 데이터를 획득하는 프로그램을 작성하였다. 시험장 구조 및 신호처리 방법의 개선을 통해 얻어진 속도 데이터에 대한 통계적인 검증으로 제안하는 방법이 기존에 사용하던 방법에 비해 클러터 제거에 효과가 있음을 증명하였다.

The purpose of this study is to investigate and compare the validity of various visual simulation methods with or without sounds and videos of the landscapes The landscape evaluation through such media as color slide, color slide with sounds, video and video without sounds are compared with on-site evaluaton of the landscape. The results are as follows : ·Video can generally convey the feelings for the real landscapes better than traditonal mathod, i.e., slide without sounds. ·When the sources of sounds are dominant in the view, there are great differences in responses among 4 different media and video can convey the feelings for real landscapes on site most successfully. ·There are slight differences by landscape types ; in mixed landscapes, there are higher correlations between the on-site estimaton and estimations through media ; in natural landscapes, video can reflect the feelings for real landscapes on site better. ·There is little difference between two shooting methods, fixed shot and pan shot. These results suggest that traditional visual simulation, with slides or photographs, could not reflect the real landscapes in certain situations and the visual simulation method with sounds and videos should be used in such situatios to represent the real landscape better. Especially, when the whole and comprehensive evaluatio of the landscape properties is important, the visual simulation with sounds and videos should be used. And simulation techniques with sounds and videos should be further developed for practial applications.

Purpose: This study was performed to obtain a quantitative evaluation of the cortical and cancellous bone graft harvestable from the mental and canine regions, and to evaluate the cortical vestibular thickness. Materials and Methods: This study collected cone-beam computed tomographic (CBCT) images of 100 Italian patients. The limits of the mental region were established: 5 mm in front of the medial margin of each mental foramen, 5 mm under the apex of each tooth present, and above the inferior mandibular cortex. Cortical and cancellous bone volumes were evaluated using SimPlant software (SimPlant 3-D Pro, Materialize, Leuven, Belgium) tools. In addition, the cortical vestibular thickness (minimal and maximal values) was evaluated in 3 cross-sections corresponding to the right canine tooth (3R), the median section (M), and the left canine tooth (3L). Results: The cortical volume was $0.71{\pm}0.23mL$ (0.27-1.96 mL) and the cancellous volume was $2.16{\pm}0.76mL$ (0.86-6.28 mL). The minimal cortical vestibular thickness was $1.54{\pm}0.41mm$ (0.61-3.25 mm), and the maximal cortical vestibular thickness was $3.14{\pm}0.75mm$ (1.01-5.83 mm). Conclusion: The use of the imaging software allowed a patient-specific assessment of mental and canine region bone availability. The proposed evaluation method might help the surgeon in the selection of the donor site by the comparison between bone availability in the donor site and the reconstructive exigency of the recipient site.

Uncertainty associated with a sampling method is very high in evaluating the degree of site contamination; therefore, such uncertainty affects the reliability of precise investigation and remediation verification. In particular, in evaluating a site for a small-sized filling station, underground utilities, such as connection pipes and oil storage tanks, make grid-unit sampling impossible and the resulting increase in uncertainty is inevitable. Accordingly, this study quantified the uncertainty related to the evaluation of the degree of contamination by total petroleum hydrocarbon and by benzene, toluene, ethylene, and xylene. When planning a grid aimed at detecting a hot spot, major factors that influence the increase in uncertainty include grid interval and the size and shape of the hot spot. The current guideline for soil sampling prescribes that the grid interval increase in proportion to the area of the evaluated site, but this heightens the possibility that a hot spot will not be detected. In evaluating a site, therefore, it is crucial to estimate the size and shape of the hot spot in advance and to establish a sampling plan considering a diversity of scenarios.

Apartment building site planning is one of time consuming and labor-intensive tasks in architectural design field, due to its complexity in zoning regulations, building codes, local restrictions, and site-specific conditions. In other words, the process can be seen as a very complicated mathematical function with layers of variables and parameters, which ironically can be automated using computational methods on parametric tools. In this paper, a practical method of automating site planning of an apartment complex has been proposed by utilizing parametric approaches in Rhino 3D and Grasshopper. Two primary parameters, building heights and positions, determine the efficacy of building layouts under all regulatory standards, thus testing out numerous combinations of the two will produce some successful layout alternatives. For this, equation solver has been used for iterating the parametric model to sort out meaningful results among others. It also has been proven that the proposed process significantly reduced the time in site planning down to less than an hour on most cases, and many successful alternatives could be obtained by using multiple computers. Post evaluation processes such as day light and view shed analysis helped sort out the best performing ones out of functioning alternatives.

고령운전자를 대상으로 하는 운전적성검사 체계는 국내에 다수 마련되어 있으나, 실차주행을 통해 실질적인 운전능력을 평가하는 항목 및 체계는 마련되어 있지 않다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 현재 국내에 존재하는 실차주행 평가방식인 기능시험 평가항목이 고령·일반 운전자의 운전능력 차이를 설명하는지 확인하고, 장내기능시험장을 활용하여 별도 평가항목을 개발하고자 실차주행실험을 수행하였으며, 운전자별 주행행태 데이터를 비교·분석하여 연령 및 신체·인지 능력에 따른 고령운전자의 운전능력 관련 통계적 유의성을 검토하였다. 그 결과, 기존의 기능시험 평가항목보다 별도 개발한 평가항목이 운전능력에 대해 더 높은 설명력을 갖추고 있음을 확인하였다. 이 결과를 바탕으로, 실차주행을 통한 실질적인 고령운전자 운전능력 평가방법 마련 및 시스템 개발에 대한 방향성 및 시사점을 제시하였다.

Despite the eco-friendly route plan, road slopes were collapsed due to road construction, resulting in human and property damage. To solve this problem, the Ministry of Land, Transport and Maritime Affairs established guidelines in 2009 to conduct a test-bed for slope recording considering the conditions of the site and the ecological environment, and divided them into recording quality and economic evaluation. The following results were obtained by analyzing 183 construction methods of cut-soil sections at 60 sites from 2012 to 2018 for road slope afforestation research. Straw net+seedspray, vegetation media spray method 1T, 3T were used the most, and vegetation media spray method 3T(patent) was excellent in quality, and straw net+seedspray was excellent in economics. As a result of analyzing the market unit price and the construction unit price, vegetation media spray method submitted the construction unit price at up to 60% lower than the market unit price. As a result of the analysis of the key factors of the greening method evaluation, the economic assessment had the greatest influence on all evaluation items. Problems in the evaluation method of revegetation were first identified as problems in the allocation of points and secondly as problems in the evaluation criteria. As for the improvement of the economic assessment criteria, the method was proposed to evaluate the same method based on market unit price when the same method was constructed, and not to conduct an economic assessment if there was a difference in market unit price between methods, or to add weight to the scores. Based on the monitoring data of 60 road slopes, this study drew up problems and improvement measures. However, with regard to scoring, research on appropriate scoring is needed by examining the current status.

This research evaluates the soil conditions for seismic stations situated in Romania using the horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratio (HVSR). The strong ground motion database assembled for this study consists of 179 analogue and digital strong ground motion recordings from four intermediate-depth Vrancea seismic events with $M_w{\geq}6.0$. In the first step of the analysis, the influence of the earthquake magnitude and source-to-site distance on the H/V curves is evaluated. Significant influences from both the earthquake magnitude and hypocentral distance are found especially for soil class A sites. Next, a site classification method proposed in the literature is applied for each seismic station and the soil classes are compared with those obtained from borehole data and from the topographic slope method. In addition, the success and error rates of this method are computed and compared with other studies from the literature. A more in-depth analysis of the H/V results is performed using data from seismic stations in Bucharest and a comparison of the free-field and borehole H/V curves is done for three seismic stations. The results show large differences between the free-field and the borehole curves. As a conclusion, the results from this study represent an intermediary step in the evaluation of the soil conditions for seismic stations in Romania and the need to perform more detailed soil classification analysis is highly emphasized.
