An ultrasonic synthetic aperture focusing technique (SAFT) using a root mean square (RMS) velocity model is proposed for pulse-echo immersion testing to improve the computational efficiency. Considering the immersion ultrasonic testing of a steel block as an example, three kinds of imaging were studied (B-Scan, SAFT imaging based on ray tracing technology and RMS velocity). The experimental results show that two kinds of SAFT imaging have almost the same imaging performance, while the efficiency of RMS velocity SAFT imaging is almost 25 times greater than the SAFT based on Snell's law.

This study identifies efficient earthquake intensity measures (IMs) for seismic performances and fragility evaluations of the reactor containment building (RCB) in the advanced power reactor 1400 (APR1400) nuclear power plant (NPP). The computational model of RCB is constructed using the beam-truss model (BTM) for nonlinear analyses. A total of 90 ground motion records and 20 different IMs are employed for numerical analyses. A series of nonlinear time-history analyses are performed to monitor maximum floor displacements and accelerations of RCB. Then, probabilistic seismic demand models of RCB are developed for each IM. Statistical parameters including coefficient of determination (R²), dispersion (i.e. standard deviation), practicality, and proficiency are calculated to recognize strongly correlated IMs with the seismic performance of the NPP structure. The numerical results show that the optimal IMs are spectral acceleration, spectral velocity, spectral displacement at the fundamental period, acceleration spectrum intensity, effective peak acceleration, peak ground acceleration, A95, and sustained maximum acceleration. Moreover, weakly related IMs to the seismic performance of RCB are peak ground displacement, root-mean-square of displacement, specific energy density, root-mean-square of velocity, peak ground velocity, Housner intensity, velocity spectrum intensity, and sustained maximum velocity. Finally, a set of fragility curves of RCB are developed for optimal IMs.

Surface Image Velocimetry(SIV) is an instrument to measure water surface velocity by using image processing techniques. Since SIV is a non-contact type measurement method, it is very effective and useful to measure water surface velocity for steep mountainous streams, such as streams in Jeju island. In the present study, a surface imaging velocimetry system was used to calculate the flow rate for flood event due to a typhoon. At the same time, two types of electromagnetic surface velocimetries (electromagnetic surface current meter and Kalesto) were used to observe flow velocities and compare the accuracies of each instrument. The comparison showed that for velocity distributions root mean square error(RMSE) was 0.33 and R-squared was 0.72. For discharge measurements, root mean square error(RMSE) reached 6.04 and R-squared did 0.92. It means that surface image velocimetry could be used as an alternative method for electromagnetic surface velocimetries in measuring flood discharge.

Large eddy simulation(LES) of fully developed turbulent pipe flow has been performed to investigate the effect of Reynolds number on the flow field at $Re_{\tau}$=180, 395, 590 based on friction velocity and pipe radius. A dynamic subgrid-scale model for the turbulent subgrid-scale stresses was employed to close the governing equations. The mean flow properties, mean velocity profiles and turbulent intensities obtained from the present LES are in good agreement with the previous numerical and experimental results currently available. The Reynolds number effects were observed in the mean velocity profile, root-mean-square of velocity fluctuations, Reynolds shear stress and turbulent viscosity.

This paper presents a direct numerical simulation of turbulent flows over a bump in an open channel to examine the turbulence characteristics near divergent waves emanating from the bump and to investigate the interaction of the turbulences with the divergent waves. To verify the reliability of the simulations, the mean velocity profile and root-mean-square of velocity fluctuations are compared with previous data. The anisotropic invariant maps show that the ratio of the streamwise to spanwise velocity fluctuations plays an important role in characterizing the anisotropic nature of the separated shear layer behind the bump in the vicinity of the free surface. The vortex identification discloses a large-scale streamwise vortical structure from the mean velocity field and a cluster of small coherent structures from the instantaneous velocity field, which are responsible for the anisotropic characteristics of the turbulence beneath the free surface.

본 연구에서는 발파 시 사람과 주변 환경에 영향을 끼치는 발파진동(peak particle velocity, PPV)을 예측하는 모델을 개발하였다. PPV를 예측하기 위해 kNN(k-nearest neighbors), CART(classification and regression tree), SVR(support vector regression), PSO(particle swarm optimization)-SVR 알고리즘을 이용한 4가지 머신러닝 모델을 개발하고 상호 비교하였다. 머신러닝 모델을 훈련하기 위해 경상남도 창원시에 있는 욕망산을 연구지역으로 선정하고 1048개의 발파 데이터를 획득하였다. 발파 데이터는 천공장, 저항선, 공간격, 최대지발장약량, 비장약량, 총공수, 에멀전비율, 이격거리, PPV로 구성되었다. 훈련된 모델들의 성능을 평가하기 위한 지표 값으로 MAE(mean absolute error), MSE(mean squared error), RMSE(root mean squared error)를 사용하였다. 평가결과 PSO-SVR 모델이 MAE, MSE, RMSE가 각각 0.0348, 0.0021, 0.0458으로 가장 우수한 예측 성능을 나타냈다. 마지막으로 개발된 머신러닝 모델을 이용하여 주변 환경에 영향을 끼치는 정도를 예측하는 방법을 제시하였다.

The nondestructive internal quality evaluation of agricultural products has been strongly required from the needs for individual inspection. Recently, the ultrasonic wave has been considered as a solution fur this problem, and an ultrasonic system was constructed for the ultrasonic NDE of fruits and vegetables in our previous work. In this paper, the practical applicability of our ultrasonic system is tested fur the inspection of internal defects (central cavity) in Atlantic potato. Sound speed and RMS of transmitted ultrasonic wave signal were measured and classification algorithm using 2 dimensional stochastic analysis. was presented. Experimental results showed greater value of sound speed and RMS (root mean square) of transmitted signal in normal samples than in abnormal samples with cavity. Also a stochastic method to distinguish normal and abnormal showed fault detection rate less than 5%.

Simultaneous measurements of velocity and OH distribution were made using particle image velocimetry(PIV) and planar laser-induced fluorescence(PLIF) of OH radical in turbulent hydrogen nonpremixed flames with coaxial air. The OH radical was used as an approximate indicator of chemical reaction zone. The OH layer was correlated well with the stoichiometric velocity, $U_s$, instantaneously and on average. In addition, high strain-rate regions almost coincide with the OH distribution. The residence time in flame surface, calculated from the root-mean-square value of the radial velocity, is proportional to $(x/d_F)^{0.7}$. It is found that the mean value of principal strain rate on the OH layer can be scaled with $(x/d_F)^{-0.7}$ and therefore, the product of the residence time and the mean strain rate remains constant over all axial positions.

This paper presents the results of the ocean surface current velocity estimation using 6 Radarsat-1 SAR images acquired in west coastal area near Incheon. We extracted the surface velocity from SAR images based on the Doppler shift approach in which the azimuth frequency shift is related to the motion of surface target in the radar direction. The Doppler shift was measured by the difference between the Doppler centroid estimated in the range-compressed, azimuth-frequency domain and the nominal Doppler centroid used during the SAR focusing process. The extracted SAR current velocities were statistically compared with the current velocities from the high frequency(HF) radar in terms of averages, standard deviations, and root mean square errors. The problem of the unreliable nominal Doppler centroid for the estimation of the SAR current velocity was corrected by subtracting the difference of averages between SAR and HF-radar current velocities from the SAR current velocity. The corrected SAR current velocity inherits the average of HF-radar data while maintaining high-resolution nature of the original SAR data.

자동속도분석의 목적은 대용량 탄성파탐사자료로부터 정확한 속도를 효율적으로 추출하는 것이다. 본 연구에서는 bootstrapped differential semblance (BDS) 방법과 몬테카를로 역산법을 이용하여 효율적인 자동속도분석 알고리듬을 개발하였다. 자동속도분석을 통해 보다 정확한 결과를 계산하기 위하여 우리가 개발된 알고리듬에서는 일반적인 셈블런스보다 높은 속도해상도를 제공하는 BDS를 일관성 측정법으로 사용한다. 게다가, 개발된 자동속도분석 알고리듬의 처리시간을 줄이고, 효율성을 증가시키기 위해 조건적으로 초기속도모델을 결정하는 단계를 추가하였다. 그리고 잘못된 피크값을 피킹하는 문제를 방지하기 위해서 새로운 RMS 속도제약조건을 선택적으로 사용하였다. 개발된 자동속도분석 모듈의 성능을 시험하기 위해서 합성탄성파탐사자료와 동해에서 취득한 현장자료에 개발된 모듈을 적용하였다. 본 연구에서 개발원 알고리듬을 통해 얻은 속도결과를 적용하여 안든 중합단면들은 일관된 반사이벤트들과 NMO보정 결과의 질이 향상된 것을 보여준다. 더욱이, 개발원 알고리듬은 구간속도제약조건을 확인하면서 구간속도를 먼저 구하고 이를 이용하여 RMS 속도를 계산하기 예문에, 지질학적으로 타당한 구간속도를 구할 수 있다. 또한, 구간속도의 경계등이 중합단면도에서 나타나는 반사이벤트들과 잘 부합된다.
