This paper analyses the data collected from the $2^{nd}$ Jindo Bridge, a cable-stayed bridge in Korea that is a structural health monitoring (SHM) international test bed for advanced wireless smart sensors network (WSSN) technology. The SHM system consists of a total of 70 wireless smart sensor nodes deployed underneath of the deck, on the pylons, and on the cables to capture the vibration of the bridge excited by traffic and environmental loadings. Analysis of the data is performed in both the time and frequency domains. Modal properties of the bridge are identified using the frequency domain decomposition and the stochastic subspace identification methods based on the output-only measurements, and the results are compared with those obtained from a detailed finite element model. Tension forces for the 10 instrumented stay cables are also estimated from the ambient acceleration data and compared both with those from the initial design and with those obtained during two previous regular inspections. The results of the data analyses demonstrate that the WSSN-based SHM system performs effectively for this cable-stayed bridge, giving direct access to the physical status of the bridge.

한국수자원공사는 전국을 대상으로 지하수의 수위 및 수질의 변동을 관측하고 국내 지하수자원의 보전 관리를 위한 기반 구축을 위하여 국가지하수 관측소를 설치${\cdot}$운영하고 있다. 자동 관측장비를 관측정 내에 설치하여 6시간 간격으로 지하수위, 온도, 전기전도도를 관측하고 있다. 주기적인 관측소 현장점검과 노후화된 혹은 고장난 관측장비 교체 및 수리 등의 작업에도 불구하고 자동 관측 및 전송의 내재적 한계로 인하여 부분적으로 이상값이 발생하고 있다. 그런데 이러한 이상값의 발생으로 인한 자료의 교란이나 관측 발생기간을 줄이기 위해서는 빠른 인지와 대처가 필요하다. 본 단보에서는 한강유역 국가 지하수 관측소 2000년도 지하수 관측 원자료에 대하여 이상값이 발생되는 시기와 빈도를 분석하였고 그 결과 지하수위는 급하강, 수온은 무변동 그리고 전기전도도는 급하강 이상이 가장 많이 발생하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 각 해당항목에 대해 이상값 판단기준을 실례로 제시하였다.

본 본문에서는 합성개구레이더(synthetic aperture radar) 위성 영상 이미지 분석을 통해 지표 침하를 측정하는 기술, 즉 합성개구레이다 간섭기법(InSAR, interferometric synthetic aperture radar)의 기본 이론 및 도심지 지표 변위 측정에 대한 적용성 검토 연구 내용을 다루었다. 먼저 InSAR 기법에 대한 기본 이론과 함께 기존 연구 동향을 제시하였으며 아울러 다중시기 SAR 영상을 이용한 시계열 분석 기법 중 SBAS-InSAR(SBAS-InSAR, Small Baseline Subset Interferometric SAR) 및 PS(Persistent Scatterers)-InSAR 기법을 연구 대상 지역에 적용하고 2014년~2021년 사이에 발생한 지역적 지반 침하를 평가하여 InSAR 기법의 도심지 지반 침하 모니터링에 구체적인 적용 가능성 여부를 평가하였다. 검토 결과 InSAR 기법은 연구대상 지역에서 발생한 시계열 침하 및 광역대 침하발생 경향을 현실적으로 모니터링할 수 있는 것으로 검토되었다. 아울러 SAR 영상을 이용한 시계열 간섭기법은 SAR 위성이 지구를 공전하면서 일정한 시간간격으로 한반도의 영상을 제공하므로 장기간에 걸쳐 발생하는 지반침하 모니터링에 효율적으로 적용할 수 있는 것으로 검토되었다. 향후 재방문 주기가 짧은 SAR 위성에서 촬영된 고해상도 SAR 영상이 활성화될 경우 InSAR 기법은 기존의 계측 기법을 대체하는 4차 산업 기술 기반의 광역대도심지 지반침하 모니터링 기술로 발전될 수 있을 것으로 평가되었다.

Finding a valid timing constraint is one of the most important issues in the real-time monitoring area. To get the valid timing constraint, a developer executes a real-time process and changes the constraint on a regular basis. This is an exhaustive and time-consuming process. To improve this approach, we propose a timing constraint search technique. This technique uses two load models and one condition proposed in this paper to support the developer in determining the valid timing constraint range in an easy and systematic manner.

Normal growth and development is of prime concern during childhood. The treatment of children with growth hormone deficiency has been revolutionized by growth hormone therapy. An improved height outcome with a final height within the target height range has been achieved. However, close follow-up with regular clinical and laboratory monitoring is essential for achieving the desirable height outcome. The theoretical unlimited supply of growth hormone has led to its wide spread use in a variety of disorders other than a growth hormone deficiency. Initially used in children with Turner syndrome, growth hormone is now used to treat chronic renal failure, an idiopathic short stature and intrauterine growth restrictions in addition to a wide array of newly emerging indications. This review summarizes the basics for a proper growth assessment, the differentiation of normal and abnormal growth causes of a short stature, and the indications for growth hormone treatment.

MANET has various types of attacks. In particular, routing attacks using characteristics of movement of nodes and wireless communication is the most threatening because all nodes which configure network perform a function of router which forwards packets. Therefore, mechanisms that detect routing attacks and defense must be applied. In this paper, we proposed hierarchical structure attack detection techniques in order to improve the detection ability against routing attacks. Black hole detection is performed using PIT for monitoring about control packets within cluster and packet information management on the cluster head. Flooding attack prevention is performed using cooperation-based distributed detection technique by member nodes. For this, member node uses NTT for information management of neighbor nodes and threshold whether attack or not receives from cluster head. The performance of attack detection could be further improved by calculating at regular intervals threshold considering the total traffic within cluster in the cluster head.

Eletrophysiological methods revealed subclinical neuropathy in 26 workers, exposed from 1 to 17 years to lead and whose blood lead (PbB) values had never exceeded $70{\mu}g/100\;ml$, as ascertained by checking the monitor reports of the factory and by careful exposure history. The PbB determinations had been tested repostedly and had been found valid. The main findings were slowing of the maximal motor conduction velocities of the median and ulnar nerves and particularly the conduction velocity of the slower fibers of the ulnar nerve. Eletrophysiological abnormalities comprised fibriliations, diminution of the number of motor units on maximal contraction, and an abnormal. Thus, a dose-response relationship exlets on a group basis. Since the regular monitoring of PbBs in most workers during their entire period of exposure excludes the possibility of a body burden out of proportion to the PbBs silght neuro-logical damage is produced at exposures hitherto regarded as quite sale.

26 multi-regional water treatment plants (WTPs) were investigated, to determine the characteristics of manganese (Mn) concentration and removal in Korea. Mn concentrations of raw water in most WTPs were higher than the drinking water standard (i.e., 0.05 mg/L); thus, proper removal of Mn at the WTPs is needed. Mn concentration was generally higher in lakes than rivers due to seasonal lake turnovers. The Mn concentrations of treated water at 26 WTPs in 2012 were less than 0.05 mg/L, due to strict law enforcement and water treatment processes optimization. However, before 2010, those concentrations were more than 0.05 mg/L, which could have led to an accumulation of Mn oxides in the distribution system. This could be one of the main reasons for black water occurrence. Therefore, regular monitoring of Mn concentration in the distribution system, flushing, and proper Mn removal at WTPs are needed, to supply clean and palatable tap water.

An increase in the number of preterm infants and a decrease in the gestational age at birth have resulted in an increase in the number of patients with significant bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) and secondary pulmonary hypertension (PH). PH contributes significantly to the high morbidity and mortality in the BPD patients. Therefore, regular monitoring for PH by using echocardiography and B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) or N-terminal-proBNP must be conducted in the BPD patients with greater than moderate degree to prevent PH and to ensure early treatment if PH is present. In the BPD patients with significant PH, multi-modality treatment, including treatment for correcting an underlying disease, oxygen supply, use of diverse selective pulmonary vasodilators (inhaled nitric oxide, inhaled prostacyclins, sildenafil, and endothelin-receptor antagonist) and other methods, is mandatory.

This paper describes extraction procedures for the center coordinates of steam generator tubes of Youngkwang nuclear power plant No. 6 unit. The centering coordinates of tubes are needed for monitoring whether ECT probe is exactly inserted into tube or not. However, The tube image tends to have poor contrast because steam generator bowl is sealed. The centering coordinates extraction procedure consists of two steps. The first step is to process the region with high contrast in entire image of steam generator tubes. Using the center points extracted in the first step and the geometry of tubes lined up in regular triangle patterns the centering coordinates of the rest region with low contrast...
