  • The paper presents a simple method for calculating the sound exposure level (LAE) of helicopter noise. It is assumed that a helicopter is a nondirective point source and that A-weighted sound pressure level at an observation point can be expressed by an A-weighted power level and a simple function of the distance from the helicopter. We derived a formula for LAE by integrating the sound energy along a finite or an infinite flight segment. The values calculated form the formula agree well with the results of test flights in which three types of helicopters each were operated in three moving modes of approach, takeoff and level flyover.

  • In this study, we determined the correlation between the wave characteristics and the change in the area of Haeundae Beach, conducted regression analysis between the wave characteristics and the change in beach area, and derived a formula for calculating the change in beach area. The change in beach area was calculated by applying the derived formula to wave observation data corresponding to a period of approximately 10 months, and the formula was subsequently validated by comparing the obtained results with the observed area. It is found that the error associated with the formula for calculating the change in beach area ranges from 1.5 m to 2.7 m based on the average beach width, and the correlation coefficient corresponding to the observed area ranges from 0.91 to 0.94. Furthermore, it is observed that the change in beach area is af ected by the wave direction in the western zone, wave height in the central zone, and wave height and wave period in the eastern zone. These results can contribute to understanding the impact of a coastal improvement project on the beach area fluctuation characteristics of Haeundae Beach and the ef ectiveness of such a coastal improvement project. By applying the aforementioned derived formula to highly accurate wave prediction data, the change in beach area can be calculated and incorporated for predicting significant long-term changes in beach areas. Furthermore, such a prediction can be considered as the basis for making decisions while establishing preemptive countermeasure policies to prevent coastal erosion.

  • Undoubtedly, the basic sinking fund formula gives the future value of a series of equal installments. The main underlying assumption for using this formula is that installment and compounding frequency must be in equal interval. But when installment for a deposit scheme or any other savings scheme and compounding frequency do not occur in an equal interval, which is treated as the complex annuity problems in Finance Literature, the basic sinking fund formula does not give the accurate result. As a result, the obtainable amount from different deposit schemes offered by different banks and financial institutions does not match with the amount of future value calculated through the basic sinking fund formula by the investors or savers. This study focuses the concealed facts for such type of mismatches in values and at the same time it provides a solution through developing a new formula by extending the basic formula intended not only to remove those mismatches but also get the accurate future value from a sinking fund provision in case of complex annuity. Besides, since banks and financial institutions calculate the interest on the average amount of equal installments deposited within a period of time due to complex annuity, the study also formulates an arithmetic formula for calculating the average amount of installment.

  • A size of low-voltage conductor cables is determined by the voltage drop of a system the cable impedance and the cable ampacity based on temperature correction factor in accordance with the condition of cable installation. Therefore, the proper temperation correction factor according to the condition of cable installation should be applied to determining the cable ampacity and also the skin effect and proximity effect, along with the kind and size of conductor and the condition of cable installation, should be properly considered to analyze the proper value of resistance and the reactance of the conductors. This paper addresses the systematic design flow for determining the size of low voltage level con여ctor cables in calculating the voltage drop of a power system and proposes a new improved the calculating formula what error should be minimized in comparison with the general formula and which can be applied in design work for determining the size of conductor cables.

  • In calculating resonant frequencies of a microstrip resonator the effect of the stray field at resonator edges has been neglected in most publications. The formula for resonant frequencies therefore provided inaccurate results. In the paper the effective dimension and the dynamic dielectic constant of a resonator are defined and obtained for more accurate resonant frequencies and qualty factor by including the effect of stray fields. Theoretical results obtained from the new formula show good agreement with experimental results. In addition, the effect on resonant modes of the distance and coupling angle between the microstrip line and the resonator is also observed.

  • Involved in a research for the application of seismic isolation to the nuclear industry, this study evaluates firstly the responses of seismic isolation system considering general ranges of structural period and damping ratio by using preliminary design formula. Secondly, coupling effects of input motions were evaluated to find out appropriate conditions of excitations and effect of the iteration for calculating yield displacement of lead core was also assessed in terms of response of a seismically isolated structure. Finally, the results of preliminary design calculation were compared with those of dynamic analysis and the propriety of the formula was evaluated and appropriate ranges of reduction factor were also suggested from the results.

  • This study was intended to compare and evaluate the value obtained from the existing formula for calculating the depth of scour and the valey from experimental model through the investigation of hydraulic characteristics and pier data in the area of rivers at Gangwon Province, and the sensitivity analysis, which is a statistical method, of the elements affecting the scour of the pier was carried out. As a result, a deviation between the values of existing formulas and experimental model reached about 1.09%$^{\circ}$63.98%, indicating that existing formula was found not to be appropriate at the rivers in Gangwon Province. A sensitivity analysis was carried out based on value obtained from experimental model and consequently, the elements affecting the scour were size of pier accounting for 64% and water depth accounting for 36%. Finally, a formula for calculating the scour of the pattern piers at the rivers in Gangwon Province was developed using the regression analysis.

  • Indexes have played an important role as a economic indicator or performance indicator in many industries for a long time. In construction industry, indexes, or Construction Cost Index(CCI), have been used to compensate for the gap of time in Estimate Using the Historical Cost Data from Feb. 2004. CCI is composed of index formula and resources. Existing literatures had used Laspyeres Index as a index formula. And, Leontief table, the bills of quantities, and information of price surveyor were used as a resource. When applying Laspyeres formula and the resources to calculating the CCI, the problems such as double application of price fluctuation, calculating the incorrect weights, may be generated. This paper analyzed the existing economic relevant indexes as well as Laspyeres formula. Thus, feasibility of them was analyzed using three practical cases of apartments. And then, Quantity based Base Period Price Index(QBPPI) was developed to consider the characteristics of construction more accurately.
