A real-time single reservoir operation model using the Min-max Dynamic Programming for the flood control of Soyanggang Dam and Choongju Dam is developed. The objective function is to minimize the maximum release from each dam and the constraints are those from ther reservoir and channel characteristics. Control and utilization efficiencies are used to measure the performance of the reservoir operation method (ROM). In comparison with those of simulation models(such as the Rigid ROM, the Technical ROM and the Linear Decision Rule), the efficiencies of the optimization model are superior for all return periods.

The continuous confined strip shearing (CCSS) based on the equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) was modeled by means of a rigid-plastic two-dimensional finite element method (FEM). Parallel to the simulations, samples of AA 1050 sheets were experimentally deformed by CCSS. The CCSS deformation led to the formation of through thickness texture gradients comprising a strong shear texture in the sheet center and weak shear textures in the sheet surfaces. FEM analysis revealed variations in the strain component $\varepsilon_13$ along the sample thickness direction, which gave rise to the evolution of different textures. A high friction between the sample and die surface was responsible for lowering intensities of the shear texture components in thickness layers close to the surfaces.

A novel in-mold packaging process has been developed to manufacture devices with closed channels. In this unified process, fabrication of open channels and forming the rigid cover on top of them are sequentially integrated in the same mold. The entire process is comprised of two phases. In the first phase, the open channels are fabricated under an exquisitely controlled temperature and pressure using the conventional micro injection molding technology. In the second phase, the closed channels are fabricated by conducting the injection molding process using the molded structure with the open channels as a mold insert. As a result, the in-mold technology can eliminate the bonding processes such as heating, ultrasonic or chemical processes for cohesion between the channel and the cover, which have been required in conventional methods.

The vegetation in the surrounding area of river is a primary factor to increase water level during flood. The influence of vegetation on the river flow in a bank has been investigated by using a hydraulic experiment. For a hydraulic experiment square-shaped piers are used as a model of unsubmerged rigid vegetation in a open channel. For fully developed uniform flows, the water elevation of the experiment was measured as varying the interval of piers and the porosity which presents the fraction of water flowing area in the cross-sectional area. The Manning's roughness coefficient, which implicates energy losses due to the vegetation, was obtained by using the experimental data. As a result, the energy losses were varied when the distance of piers and the porosity of area were changed, and the Manning's coefficient increased nonlinearly when a water elevation increased.

The printed circuit heat exchanger (PCHE) is regarded as a promising candidate for advanced heat exchangers for the next-generation supercritical $CO_2$ power generation owing to its high compactness and rigid structure. In this study, an innovative type of PCHE, in which the channel sizes for the heat source fluid and heat sink fluid are different, is considered for analysis. The thermal performance of the PCHE, with supercritical $CO_2$ as the working fluid, is numerically analyzed. The results have shown that the thermal performance of the PCHE decreases monotonically when the channel size of either the heat source channel or the heat sink channel, because of the decreased flow velocity. On the other hand, the thermal performance of the PCHE is found to be almost independent of the spacing between the channels. In addition, it was found that the channel cross sectional shape has little effect on the thermal performance when the hydraulic diameter of the channel remains constant.

Recent study about near-surface is proposed to overcome non-economic of underground railway and to reduce people's complaints of ground elevated railway. In this report, precast modular structure system replacing temporary facilities is applied to ensure the construction ability and economic feasibility. To verify the performance of connection joint between permanent structural wall and upper slab, loading test is carried out. As a result of the test, wall replacing temporary structure to slab connection is possible to transfer bending moment. By 30% increase of bending resistant performance for connection joint using coupler, coupler connection joint is more advantageous to resist bending moment compared to channel connection.

Hydraulic engineers and scientists working on river restoration recognize the need for a deeper understanding of natural streams as a complex and dynamic system, which involves not only abiotic elements(flow, sediments) but also biotic components. From this point of view, the role played by riverine vegetation dynamics and flow conditions becomes essential. Hydro-mechanic interaction between flow and flexible plants covering a river bed is studied in this paper and some previous works are discussed. Measurements of turbulence and flow resistance in vegetated open channel were performed using rigid and flexible tube. Measuring detailed turbulent velocity profiles within and above submerged and flexible stems allowed to distinguish different turbulent regimes. Some interesting relationships were obtained between the velocity field and the deflected height of the plants, such as a reduced drag coefficient in the flexible stems. Turbulent intensities and Reynolds stresses were measured showing two different regions : above and inside the vegetation domain. In flexible vegetated open channel, the maximum values of turbulent intensities and Reynolds stresses appear above the top of canopy. Method to predict a flow resistance in flexible vegetated open channel is developed by modifying an analytical model proposed by Klopstra et al. (1997). Calculated velocity profiles and roughness values correspond well with flume experiments. These confirm the applicability of the presented model for open channel with flexible vegetation. The new method will be verified in the real vegetated conditions in the near future. After these verifications, the new method should be applied for nature rehabilitation projects such as river restorations.

In this paper, we deal with the problem of M2M gateways' network selection for different types of M2M traffic in heterogeneous wireless networks. Based on the difference in traffic's quality of service (QoS) requirements, the M2M traffic produced by various applications is mainly classified as two categories: flexible traffic and rigid traffic. Then, game theory is adopted to solve the problem of network-channel selection with the coexistence of flexible and rigid traffic, named as flexible network access (FNA). We prove the formulated discrete game is a potential game. The existence and feasibility of the Nash equilibrium (NE) of the proposed game are also analyzed. Then, an iterative algorithm based on optimal reaction criterion and a distributed algorithm with limited feedback based on learning automata are presented to obtain the NE of the proposed game. In simulations, the proposed iterative algorithm can achieve a near optimal sum utility of whole network with low complexity compared to the exhaustive search. In addition, the simulation results show that our proposed algorithms outperform existing methods in terms of sum utility and load balance.

최근 차세대 디스플레이인 flexible 하고 transparent 한 디스플레이 개발이 진행 중 이며, 이러한 디스플레이가 개발 되기 위해 백 플레인으로 사용되는 Thin Film Transistor (TFT) 또한 차세대 디스플레이 못지 않게 연구가 진행 되고 있다. 기존의 무기물을 기반으로 하고 Rigid한 TFT는 현재 많은 곳에 적용이 되어 사람들이 사용 하고 있다. 하지만 이미 시장은 포화상태이며 차세대 디스플레이 컨셉인 flexible 하고 투명한 것과 맞지 않는다. 그래서 유연하며 투명한 특성을 가진 TFT에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행 되고 있으며 많은 성과를 이루었다. 이러한 소자를 이용하여 훗날 Electronic-skin(e-skin)이라 부르는 전자 피부를 활용하여 실시간 모니터링 할 수 있는 헬스 케어 분야 등에 활용 가치 또한 높다. 현재 유연하며 투명한 기판 및 물질 개발에 많은 연구 개발이 진행 되고 있다. 하지만 유연한 기판을 사용하여 TFT를 제작한 후 stress나 bending에 대한 내구성과 안정성, 신뢰성 등이 무기물을 기반으로 한 TFT에 비해 좋지 않은 실정이다. 따라서 유연하며 투명한 기판을 사용한 TFT에 대한 안정성, 신뢰성 등을 확보하여야 한다. 본 연구 에서는 유연한 기판을 사용하여 TFT를 제작 한 후, TFT특성과 안정성을 확보하는 것을 목표로 실험을 진행하였다. 우리는 Mo전극과 Parylene 기판을 사용하여 유연한 TFT소자를 탑 게이트 구조로 제작 하였고 Rigid한 Glass기판 위에 Floating Process를 진행하기 위해 PVA층을 코팅 후 그 위에 Parylene을 CVD로 증착 하고 IGZO를 Sputter를 사용해 증착했다. Parylene은 DI Water 70도에서 Floating 공정을 통해 Rigid 기판에서 탈착 시켰다. 유연한 기판 위에 TFT를 제작 후 bending에 대한 특성 변화 및 안정성에 대한 측정을 실시하였다. Bending에 대한 특성 변화는 우수한 결과가 나왔지만 안정성 측정 중 Negative Bias Stress(NBS) 상에서 비정상적인 On Current Drop 현상이 발생 되었다. Parylene과 Channel층 사이 interface roughness로 인해 charge trap이 되고 이로 인해 On Current Drop 이라는 현상으로 나타났다. 그래서 우리는 Parylene 기판과 Channel 층간의 surface roughness를 개선하기 위한 방법으로 UV Treatment를 사용하였고 시간을 다르게 하여 surface 개선을 진행했다. Treatment 시간을 증가 시킴에 따라 Surface roughness가 많이 좋아 졌으며, Surface를 개선하고자 비정상적인 On Current Drop 현상이 없어졌으며 위 실험으로 Polymer의 surface roughness에 따라 TFT에 대한 안정성에 대한 신뢰성이 확보 될 수 있는 것을 확인 하였다.

This paper presents results of an experimental investigation of vortex-induced vibration (VIV) of a flexibly mounted and rigid cylinder with two-degrees-of-freedom with respect to varying ratio of in-line natural frequency to cross-flow natural frequency, $f^*$, at a fixed low mass ratio. Combined in-line and cross-flow motion was observed in a sub-critical Reynolds number range. Three-dimensional displacement meter and tension meter were used to measure dynamic responses of the model. To validate the results and the experiment system, x and y response amplitudes and ratio of oscillation frequency to cross-flow natural frequency were compared with other experimental results. It has been found that the higher harmonics, such as third and more vibration components, can occur on a certain part of steel catenary riser under a condition of dual resonance mode. In the present work, however, due to the limitation of a size of circulating water channel, the whole test of a whole configuration of the riser at an adequate scale for VIV phenomenon was not able to be conducted. Instead, we have modeled a rigid cylinder and assumed that the cylinder is a part of steel catenary riser where the higher harmonic motions could occur. Through the experiment, we have found that even though the cylinder was assumed to be rigid, the occurrence of the higher harmonic motions was observed in a small reduced velocity ($V_r$) range, where the influence of the in-line response is relatively large. The transition of the vortex shedding mode from one to another was examined by using time history of x and y directional displacement over all experimental cases. We also observed the influence of in-line restoring force power spectral density with $f^*$.
