This paper proposes a geoacoustic inversion method for the experimental data or MAPLE 2004 experiment conducted in the East Sea of Korea in 2004 and shows source tracking test results to validate the Proposed inversion method. An objective function is defined as a correlation function of the measured and the simulated transmission loss data. The measured transmission data were obtained using a multi-tonal towed source and VLA. The VFSA (Very Fast Simulated Annealing) is applied to the inversion Problem which optimizes the objective function. After performing the inversion process for the S frequencies tonal data independently. geoacoustic models are constructed. Finally matched-field source tracking is Performed using the inverted parameters to verify them.

This study was conducted to analyze fishing capacity and bycatch by mesh size and entrance size of spring net pot conducted by water tank and field experiment. The water tank experiments were conducted by using traps with mesh size of 22 mm and entrance size of 120 mm and 140 mm, respectively in the water tank of NIFS. The field experiment was conducted using 5 kinds of spring net pot with mesh sizes of 20 mm, 22 mm, 35 mm and entrance size of 120 mm, 130 mm, 140 mm, 360 mm by coastal trap fishery vessel operating around the area of Geoje island. In the result of water tank experiments, the catch of conger eel was 1.5 times higher when using trap with entrance size of 140 mm than that of 120 mm. In the field experiment, when using same mesh size, the larger the entrance size, the higher amount of conger eel catch, bycatch and number of bycatch species. When using the same entrance size, the larger the mesh size, the lower amount of conger eel catch and number of bycatch species, whereas the amount of bycatch showed increasing trend.

영상 기반 렌더링에서 평면에 투영된 사영 영상만을 가지고 3 차원 영상을 재구성 하는 여러 가지 모델링 기법들이 연구되어 왔다. 4D Plenoptic Function 을 사용하는 Light Field Rendering 이나 Lumigraph 방법은 여러 개의 영상으로 새로운 시점의 영상을 생성하는 기법이다. 이러한 방법은 사용자가 가상 세계에서의 항해를 가능하게 하고 2 차원의 정보만으로 3 차원 환경을 구성 할 수 있다. Concentric Mosaic, Plenoptic Stitching, Sea of Image 등은 Light Field 를 이용하여 사용자가 여러 가지 환경에서 항해할 수 있게 하는 기법이다. 특히 Takahashi 는 도시의 거리와 같은 대규모 환경에서의 항해에 관한 연구를 발표하였다. 단일 경로를 따라 파노라마 영상을 획득한 다음 Light Field 방법을 사용해서 새로운 시점의 영상을 생성한다. 하지만 대규모 환경에서 사용자가 이동할 수 있는 경로의 범위는 매우 넓고 경로를 따라 조밀하게 파노라마 영상을 획득해야 하기 때문에 데이터의 양이 많아지고 영상획득의 어려움이 있다. 이러한 단점으로 인하여 참조 영상의 네트워크 전송 시에 네트워크의 부하가 증가될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 Takahashi 의 방법을 기본으로 파노라마 영상 모핑 방법을 이용하여 임의 시점 (Arbitrary View)의 영상을 렌더링 하는 방법을 제안한다. 파노라마 영상의 획득 간격을 비교적 크게 하면서 파노라마 영상 모핑 기법을 이용하여 중간 영상을 생성한 후 Takahashi 의 방법을 사용하여 임의 영상을 생성하는 방법이다. 적은 수의 파노라마 영상으로 비교적 좋은 임의 시점의 영상을 재구성 할 수 있었다.

This study confirms that a decadal variation of the SST (Sea Surface Temperature) in the WNP (Western North Pacific) has an influence on the genesis and passage ofa Tropical Cyclone. The decadal mode was obtained by calculating the SST anomaly on the domain $150^{\circ}E-190^{\circ}E$, and $5^{\circ}S-5^{\circ}N$. Such decadal variation was subsequently analyzed to confirm that it is a dominant mode in central Pacific region. Next, after classifying the years into relatively positive years and relatively negative years, the characteristics of Tropical Cyclone in each year, such as a genesis and passage frequency, were investigated. Compared to the relatively negative years, during the relatively positive years, the location of Tropical Cyclone genesis was biased toward South-Eastern region, while the characteristics of the cyclone were more distinct during late season of the year trom September to December than in mid season from June to August. Examining the movement passage through the observation of passage fiequency, there was a significant difference between positive year and negative year in their passages at a 90% confidence level. Moreover, the number of Tropical Cyclone, maximum wind, and life time also showed higher values in positive years than in negative years. These features were confirmed by examining the 850hPa cyclonic flow field, vorticity field, and vertical wind shear field, all of which contribute to the genesis of a Tropical Cyclone.

In the present study, wave deformation and wave-induced current were calculated under the regular wave conditions using the Boussinesq model. The model results of the wave deformation showed good agreements with the preceeding laboratory experiments of others. The wave-induced current of the fully developed sea state was calculated. For field application of model, the preceeding field data by others in the real scale of the water area were compared, the numerical result of wave deformation showed a relatively good agreement with the field data. Although the numerical result of wave-induced current was underestimated over the longshore bar developed area, the Boussinesq model is generally suitable to predict the wave-induced current.

This study conducted four field measurements of local ice pressure during the icebreaking voyage of the icebreaking research vessel "ARAON" in the Chukchi and Beaufort seas from July to August of 2010. For measurements, 14 strain gauges, including 8 strain gauge rosettes, were set on the bow of the port side. Influence coefficients were determined using a finite element model of the instrumented area and they were used to convert the measured strains on the hull structure to local ice pressures. The converted maximum pressure was calculated as 2.12 MPa on an area of $0.28m^2$. Pressure-area curves were developed from the surveyed pressure data and the results were compared with previously measured data. The study results are expected to provide an understanding of local ice pressures and thus be useful in the structural design of ice class ships.

Passive tuned mass dampers (TMDs) efficiently suppress vibrations induced by quasi-stationary dynamic inputs, such as winds, sea waves or traffic loads, but may prove of little use against pulse-like excitations, such as near-field (NF) ground motions. The extent of such impairment is however controversial, partly due to the different evaluation criteria adopted within the literature, partly to the limited number of seismic records used in most investigations. In this study, three classical techniques and two new variants for designing a TMD on an SDOF structure are tested under 338 NF records from the PEER NGA database, including 156 records with forward-directivity features. Percentile response reduction spectra are introduced to statistically assess TMD performance, and TMD robustness is verified through Monte Carlo simulations. The methodology is extended to a variety of MDOF bending-type and shear-type frames, and simulated on a case study building structure recently constructed in Central Italy.Results offer an interesting insight into the performance of TMDs against NF earthquakes, ultimately showing that, if properly designed and sufficiently massive, TMDs are effective and robust even in the face of pulse-like ground motions. The two newly proposed design techniques are shown to generally outperform the classical ones.

KEPCO Research Institute developed a GIS-based autopilot drone inspection system for electric power facilities and since its pilot application in 2017, it has been successfully used to detect defects in power transmission lines. This paper presents how to operate this system in the field of power line inspection. Power transmission lines are located in a wide variety of environments such as plains, mountains, river crossings, sea crossings, and industrial areas. Among these, some transmission lines are difficult for human workers to access because of their geographies and some should be checked more often due to their severe contamination. Considering these field conditions, we classified drone operation in two categories to increase its effectiveness and efficiency - patrol surveillance and detailed inspection tasks. This paper describes the detailed procedures of the two tasks above and their field application experiences. In addition, this paper newly proposes how to construct public drone roads by using the information of KEPCO's power transmission lines.

There is a method for offering continuous information by AF track circuits. Magnetic fields are formed by current through rails in the AF track circuit systems. So, the continuous information is received by the magnetic fields on a on-board antenna. Coating materials of spray on rails are researched to decrease defects such as head check, shelling, corrugation, squats and so on in Germany. Currently, a coating method of rail construction is proposed by using the ceramics in Korea. When deciding physical characteristic of the coating material of spray, researches are required about variation of flux density and resistivity by using the coating material of spray. In case that the flux density is much lower than existing value, the information for train control is not transmitted to the on-board antenna. In this paper, inductance on rails is calculated and a model is presented about variation of the magnetic field intensity and resistivity in the AF track circuit. Standard permeability of the coating material of spray is proposed. Also, standard resistivity of the coating material of spray is presented by analyzing short current.
