This study aims to determine the sunlight exposure according to depositional environment to improve the accuracy of optically simulated luminescence (OSL) dating. Sufficient sunlight exposure during transportation of sediment is a basic assumption of the OSL dating, and if the process does not occur enough, the results may be overestimated compared to the actual depositional age. Therefore, the main purpose of this study is to establish a correction method by determining residual or unbleachable dose after sunlight exposure in the actual deposition process, not in the laboratory measurement. Four samples from two sites were collected according to the depositional environment from rivers and coasts, and various OSL signals, including the size of residual dose, degree of dispersion between grains, and OSL signal sensitivity, were measured. As a result, it was confirmed that sediments formed under temporarily high energy environments, such as floods and surges, had relatively high residual dose or large dispersion of residual dose between particles. In further studies, the OSL signal characteristics of river sediments by flow velocity will be identified and the relationship between energy and OSL signal characteristics will be identified in more detail. Moreover, a method of reconstructing the paleo-environment at the time of deposition for existing sediments will be devised. It is expected to provide important information for the frequency of disaster recurrence and prediction of future climate change.

신에너지원으로 주목받고 있는 중질 잔사유를 기존 중유화력의 대체 연료로 사용하는 경우에 대하여 상용 해석코드로 플랜트의 에너지 및 물질 수지, 플랜트의 성능을 분석하였다. 국내 A 중유 화력발전소에 대한 플랜트 성능분석 모델을 구축하였으며 플랜트의 성능 및 효율 등에 대한 시뮬레이션 결과를 설계 및 실제 운전 데이터와 비교하여 그 건전성을 확인하였다. 중질 잔사유 적용에 대한 시뮬레이션 결과 출력은 315 MW로서 중유 적용시의 300 MW 보다 높게 나타났으며 플랜트 효율은 약간 감소함을 알 수 있었다. 외기온도 및 냉각수 온도, 배가스 순환량, 출력에 따른 열소비율의 민감도 분석으로부터 중질 잔사유 연소시의 최적 운전을 위한 기본 자료를 얻을 수 있었다.

Designing of a hierarchical clustering algorithm is one of the numerous approaches to minimize the energy consumption of the Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). In this paper, a homogeneous and randomly deployed sensor nodes is considered. These sensors are energy constrained elements. The nominal selection of the Cluster Head (CH) which falls under the clustering part of the network protocol is studied and compared to Low Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy (LEACH) protocol. CHs in this proposed process is the function of total remaining energy of each node as well as total average energy of the whole arrangement. The algorithm considers initial energy, optimum value of cluster heads to elect the next group of cluster heads for the network as well as residual energy. Total remaining energy of each node is compared to total average energy of the system and if the result is positive, these nodes are eligible to become CH in the very next round. Analysis and numerical simulations quantify the efficiency and Average Energy Ratio (AER) of the proposed system.

중잔유(heavy residual oil)는 원유 정제 후 남는 원유의 잔여물로서, 세계적으로 정제공정(즉, SOx 및 NOx 방출량)과 정제물의 질에 대한 환경 규제가 계속 강화되고 있는 추세에비추어 다른 유류나 석탄에 비해 유황과 중금속(특히 바나듐)을 많이 포함하고 있는 중잔유를 환경적합적으로 활용하는 문제는 시급히 해결해야 하는 과제가 되고 있다.(중략)

In this paper, we propose an adaptive data aggregation and compression scheme for wireless sensor networks with energy-harvesting nodes, which increases the amount of data arrived at the sink node by efficient use of the harvested energy. In energy-harvesting wireless sensor networks, sensor nodes can have more than necessary energy because they harvest energy from environments continuously. In the proposed scheme, when a node judges that there is surplus energy by estimating its residual energy, the node compresses and transmits the aggregated data so far. Conversely, if the residual energy is estimated to be depleted, the node turns off its transceiver and collects only its own sensory data to reduce its energy consumption. As a result, this scheme increases the amount of data collected at the sink node by preventing the blackout of relay nodes and facilitating data transmission. Through simulation, we show that the proposed scheme suppresses the occurrence of blackout nodes and collect the largest amount of data at the sink node compared to previous schemes.

In this paper, we present a multi-chain based hierarchical topology control algorithm (MCHTC) for wireless sensor networks. In this algorithm, the topology control process using static clustering is divided into sensing layer that is composed by sensor nodes and multi-hop data forwarding layer that is composed by leader nodes. The communication cost and residual energy of nodes are considered to organize nodes into a chain in each cluster, and leader nodes form a tree topology. Leader nodes are elected based on the residual energy and distance between themselves and the base station. Analysis and simulation results show that MCHTC outperforms LEACH, PEGASIS and IEEPB in terms of network lifetime, energy consumption and network energy balance.

When carbon-filled rubber specimens are subjected to cyclic loading, they do not return to their initial state after loading and subsequent unloading, but exhibit a residual strain or permanent deformation. We propose a specific form of the pseudo-elastic energy function to represent cyclic loading for incompressible, isotropic materials with stress softening and residual strain. The essence of the pseudo-elasticity theory is that material behaviour in the primary loading path is described by a common elastic strain energy function, and in unloading, reloading or secondary unloading paths by a different strain energy function. The switch between strain energy functions is controlled by the incorporation of a damage variable into the strain energy function. An extra term is added to describe the permanent deformation. The finite element implementation of the proposed model is presented in this paper. All parameters in the proposed model and elastic law can be easily estimated based on experimental data. The numerical analyses show that the results are in good agreement with experimental data.
