  • 한반도에서는 크고 작은 지진이 꾸준히 발생하고 있음을 역사문헌과 계기지진 관측 자료를 통해 알 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 역사지진과 계기지진 자료를 이용해 지리정보시스템(GIS)의 공간분석 결과, 북한의 평양지역이 지진으로부터 가장 위험한 지역으로 결정되었다. 평양은 북한의 수도로서 인구와 구조물의 밀집도가 높아 지진뿐만 아니라 재해로 인해 큰 위험에 처할 수 있다. 502년 평양에서 발생한 규모 6.7의 지진을 토대로 지진동 지도를 작성한 결과, 0.24 g보다 높은 지진동을 느낄 수 있는 지역이 평양지역의 약 51.1%를 차지한다. 또한 통계청 자료에 의하면 북한은 우리나라보다 재해로부터 열악한 환경에 처해 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 이번 연구결과는 향후 북한을 포함한 우리나라의 포괄적인 지진재해예측 연구에 유용한 정보로 사용될 수 있다.

  • The aim of this study was to analyze the learning curve of a low-volume veterinary surgeon for laparoscopic salpingectomy of Asiatic black bear. A total of 66 Asiatic black bears (Ursus thibetanus) were presented for sterilization using laparoscopic salpingectomy. These 66 bears were divided into three groups of 22 bears according to the order of surgery (A, B, and C groups, 22 bears per group). One veterinarian performed laparoscopic salpingectomy. There was no significant difference in age, body weight, or crown-rump length between groups. The hazard of completion for salpingectomy by 5 minutes was higher (p < 0.0001) in B and C groups than A group, whereas the hazard was not significant different between B and C groups. The factor that affected the hazard of completing salpingectomy by 5 minutes was heart rate, not age or weight. Operation time was 12.61 ± 8.04 minutes for group A, 5.35 ± 4.38 minutes for group B, and 2.80 ± 1.16 minutes for group C. The operation time for salpingectomy shortened over time. However, significant difference in operation time was present only between groups A and C (p = 0.001). The operation time for laparoscopic salpingectomy decreased rapidly for the first 7 bears (p < 0.05). It then decreased gradually until the 66th case. Operation time of laparoscopic salpingectomy was significantly decreased and stabilized after 33 cases (p < 0.05). As a result, the number of bears required for a low-volume veterinary surgeon to be proficient in laparoscopic salpingectomy is 33 or more.

  • Catastrophe models appraise the natural risk of the built-infrastructure simulating the interaction of its exposure and vulnerability with a hazard. Because of unique configurations and reduced number, mid/high-rise buildings present singular challenges to the assessment of their damage vulnerability. This paper presents a novel approach to estimate the vulnerability of mid/high-rise buildings (MHB) which is used in the Florida Public Hurricane Loss Model, a catastrophe model developed for the state of Florida. The MHB vulnerability approach considers the wind pressure hazard exerted over the building's height as well as accompanying rain. The approach assesses separately the damages caused by wind, debris impact, and water intrusion on building models discretized into typical apartment units. Hurricane-induced water intrusion is predicted combining the estimates of impinging rain with breach and pre-existing building defect size estimates. Damage is aggregated apartment-by-apartment and story-by-story, and accounts for vertical water propagation. The approach enables the vulnerability modeling of regular and complex building geometries in the Florida exposure and elsewhere.

  • In this study, the effect of local site conditions (site class and site amplifications) and structural variability are investigated on fragility functions of typical building structures. The study area is chosen as Eastern Turkey. The fragility functions are developed using site-specific uniform hazard spectrum (UHS). The site-specific UHS is obtained based on simulated ground motions. The implementation of ground motion simulation into seismic hazard assessment has the advantage of investigating detailed local site effects. The typical residential buildings in Erzincan are represented by equivalent single degree of freedom systems (ESDOFs). Predictive equations are accomplished for structural seismic demands of ESDOFs to derive fragility functions in a straightforward manner. To study the sensitivity of fragility curves to site class, two sites on soft and stiff soil are taken into account. Two alternative site amplification functions known as generic and theoretical site amplifications are examined for these two sites. The reinforced concrete frames located on soft soil display larger fragilities than those on stiff soil. Theoretical site amplification mostly leads to larger fragilities than generic site amplification more evidently for reinforced concrete buildings. Additionally, structural variability of ESDOFs is generally observed to increase the fragility especially for rigid structural models.

  • 본 연구에서는 가뭄빈도공식을 이용해서 목포지역의 가뭄을 평가하고자 하였으며, 이를 위해 Sharma(1997)가 제안한 가뭄빈도공식을 이용한 가뭄빈도해석을 실시하였다. 본 연구에서 적용된 가뭄빈도공식은 빈도계수법 형태인 연강수량 자료계열을 이용하였으며, 5년 가뭄빈도보다 큰 가뭄을 가뭄년으로 선정하고, 대상지역에 대한 과거 가뭄을 평가하였다. 이를 통해 목포지역의 가장 큰 가뭄은 1995년에 발생하였으며, 그 해의 연강수량은 613.2mm로서 30년 가뭄빈도에 해당됨을 알 수 있었다.

  • 오늘날 도시지역은 인구밀집과 건축물의 고밀화로 인하여 자연재해나 인위적 재난이 발생할 경우 대형사고로 확산될 가능성이 매우 높다. 본 논문에서는 지형공간정보체계를 이용하여 도시지역의 종합적인 재해위험도를 평가하였으며, 이를 위해 도시지역 재해위험도를 침수위험도, 화재위험도, 건물붕괴위험도, 대피위험도 등 4가지로 세분하고 재해위험도를 평가하였다. 이러한 재해위험도 평가결과는 각종 도시관리계획을 수립할 때 재해를 최소화 시킬 수 있는 유효한 자료로 활용될 수 있다. 향 후 본 연구의 체계화와 전문성을 위하여 보다 많은 재해요소를 포함하고 관련분야의 전문가가 참여하는 공동연구 수행이 필요하다고 생각된다.

  • Landslide is a natural hazard that threats lives and properties in many areas around the world. Landslides are difficult to recognize, particularly in rainforest regions. Thus, an accurate, detailed, and updated inventory map is required for landslide susceptibility, hazard, and risk analyses. The inconsistency in the results obtained using different features selection techniques in the literature has highlighted the importance of evaluating these techniques. Thus, in this study, six techniques of features selection were evaluated. Very-high-resolution LiDAR point clouds and orthophotos were acquired simultaneously in a rainforest area of Cameron Highlands, Malaysia by airborne laser scanning (LiDAR). A fuzzy-based segmentation parameter (FbSP optimizer) was used to optimize the segmentation parameters. Training samples were evaluated using a stratified random sampling method and set to 70% training samples. Two machine-learning algorithms, namely, Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Random Forest (RF), were used to evaluate the performance of each features selection algorithm. The overall accuracies of the SVM and RF models revealed that three of the six algorithms exhibited higher ranks in landslide detection. Results indicated that the classification accuracies of the RF classifier were higher than the SVM classifier using either all features or only the optimal features. The proposed techniques performed well in detecting the landslides in a rainforest area of Malaysia, and these techniques can be easily extended to similar regions.

  • 각종 자연재해에 따른 광역 피해에 대한 정보를 수집하는 데에는 일반적으로 위성영상이 이용되고 있으며, 좀 더 국지적인 피해를 조사할 경우에는 항공사진이나 저고도 무인비행기가 이용되고 있다. 그러나 공공 시설물 피해와 같이 더욱 세부적인 피해를 조사하는 데에는 이러한 방법이 적절치 않으며, 현지측량작업이 행하여져 왔다. 본 논문에서는 사진측량 기법을 이용하여 공공시설물 피해를 좀 더 빠르고 정확하게 조사할 수 있는 방법을 모색하였다. 두 개의 디지털 카메라를 프레임에 고정시켜 촬영시스템을 제작하였으며, 실제 피해 지역에서 이 시스템을 이용하여 피해 현장을 촬영한 후 피해정보를 추출하였다. 이렇게 산출된 피해정보와 토탈스테이션을 이용한 실측결과를 비교하여 제작된 시스템의 활용성을 확인하였다.

  • This study was surveyed to identify changes of flora during three years after restoration in Cheonggyecheon stream. There are four sections in Cheonggyecheon. One and two sections are upper streams and three and four sections are down streams. It was surveyed 328 species in 2006. In 2007 and 2008, 446 and 444 species were found, respectively. This result shows that Cheonggyecheon is unstable initial condition in restored stream ecosystem. Naturalized species were 58 species in 2006 and it was respectively 61 and 63 species in 2007 and 2008. Hazard species of ecosystem were three common species during survey period. In appearance of flora per section, three and four sections constituted by natural sites such as point bars, wide flood plains, riffles and ponds, marshes, etc. were surveyed more species than one and two constructed by concrete materials and narrow flow channel. Recently, as time goes by, introduced species are being increased. And succession has mainly been progressed by one year or binary herbs and perennial herbs. Compared with other restored streams, Cheonggyecheon showed more flora than Yangjaecheon and Anyangcheon. It is judged owing to length of surveyed site, various planted species and area of inhabitation space. To manage restored stream ecosystem, monitoring is essential. Further, because change of vegetation after restoration in Cheonggyecheon is very important, continuous monitoring about Flora and Naturalized species and Hazard species of ecosystem is also very important.
