  • 장기유출해석 모델은 수자원의 안정적인 확보와 이용, 유역단위 기초자료 조사관리 등을 위하여 수자원 장기종합계획 및 전국유역조사사업 등에 활용되고 있다. 주로 국외에서 개발된 모형이 활용되고 있어, 국내의 여건에 맞추어 편의성이 개선된 모형을 찾는 것은 매우 어려운 일이다. 또한, 유출해석을 수행하기에 앞서 지속적으로 업데이트된 모델에 대한 객관적인 평가를 수행한 사례는 드물다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 국내에서 주로 활용되고 있는 장기유출해석모델(TANK, SWAT, SSARR, PRMS 등)에 대한 비교검토를 토대로 각종 사업과의 연계성, 계산의 효율성, 정확도 등을 고려하여 USGS에서 개발한 PRMS v.4.0.2를 기반으로 국내유역에 활용이 가능하도록 개선한 $K-BASIN^{RR}$ 및 입력자료 전처리기를 개발하였다. PRMS 모형은 융설 및 지하수 흐름 등 다양한 기능을 포함하여 강우유출 분석에 활용성 높은 모형으로 평가받고 있으나, 국내 OS환경 및 활용 단위계에서 활용성이 떨어지는 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 소스코드 개선 및 GUI구축을 통하여 PC 환경에서 구동이 쉽도록 재구성하였고, 사용자 편의성 확보를 위한 입력자료 전처리기를 개발함으로써 수자원단위지도 3.0, 임상도 재분류 테이블, 토양도 재분류 테이블의 DB화 및 모형의 구동을 위한 HRU분할, 입력자료 생성이 가능하도록 하였다. 매개변수 최적화를 위하여 하천 유량뿐만 아니라 기저유출량을 대상으로 Monte-Carlo 시뮬레이션 기반의 매개변수를 최적화 기능을 탑재하였다. 개발된 모형의 적용성 평가를 위하여 용담댐 시험유역을 대상으로 11년 간(2005-2015)의 강우 및 온도자료를 입력자료로 활용하여 모의한 결과 샘플의 개수에 따라 NSE(Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency)를 0.9까지 추정이 가능함을 파악하였다. 또한, 유출량과 기저유출에 대하여 동시에 최적화를 수행하는 경우 NSE를 유출량에 대하여 0.8, 기저유출량에 대하여 0.6까지 추정이 가능하였다. 최적화된 모의 결과에 대한 검토를 위하여 계산증발산량을 측정증발산량과 비교한 결과, 유사한 패턴을 나타내는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구에서 개발한 $K-BASIN^{RR}$을 활용하는 경우 장기유출해석 업무에 효율성 및 정확도를 향상할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

  • Purpose: Chemically strong-acids (HF and $HCl/H_2SO_4$) dual etching implant surfaces have higher strengths of osseointegration than machined implant surfaces. However, the dual acid treatment deteriorates the physical properties of the titanium by weakening the fatigue resistance of the implant and causing microcracks. The removal torque comparison between the dual-acid etched (hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, HS) and single-acid etched implants (hydrochloric acid, H) could reveal the efficiency of implant surface acid treatment. Materials and methods: Nine $3.75{\times}4mm$ dual-acid etched SLA implants and nine single-acid etched SLA implants were inserted into New Zealand rabbit tibias. After 10 days, removal torque, roughness, and wetting angle were measured. Results: Mean removal torque values were as follows: Mean removal torque were 9.94 Ncm for HS group and 9.96 Ncm for H group (P=.995). Mean surface roughness value were $0.93{\mu}m$ for HS group and $0.84{\mu}m$ for H group (P=.170). Root mean square roughness (RSq) values were $1.21{\mu}m$ for HS group and $1.08{\mu}m$ for H group (P=.294), and mean wetting angle values were $99^{\circ}$ for HS group and $98^{\circ}$ for H group (P=.829). Statistical analysis showed no significant difference between the removal torques, roughness, or wetting angles of the two groups. Conclusion: In this experiment, we found no significant difference in removal torque, roughness, or wetting angle between dual-acid etched and single-acid etched implants.

  • 한국농어촌공사가 관리하고 있는 농업용저수지는 총 3,377개로 2015년 평균 저수율은 61 %를 기록하였는데, 이는 예년 평균 저수율51 %를 나타내고 있다. 1990년대 후반부터 우리나라에는 기후변화에 따른 온난화 추세를 나타내는 경향을 보이고 있고, 강수량 및 집중호우의 증가추세도 나타나고 있다. 기온과 강수량이 과거와 다른 변화를 보임에 따라 물 공급의 안정성을 확보하기 위해 저수지를 통한 수자원 확보가 이루어지고 있으나, 용수공급능력이 어떻게 변화할 것인지에 대한 정보가 부족한 상태이다. 또한, 논벼의 생육에 있어서 저수지의 적절한 용수공급은 필수적이기 때문에 저수지의 효율적 운영 및 용수이용의 효율적 분석이 필요하다. 최근까지 연구 조사에서 농업용수 이용 효율은 굉장히 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 농업용수 이용 효율의 개선을 위해서는 용수수급 특성을 조사 분석하고, 이에 따른 개선방안을 제시하는 것이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 가뭄 등 기상 재해에 대응하고 한정된 농촌용수를 합리적으로 관리하기 위해 대상지구에 대한 농업용수 이용 효율성을 분석하고자 한다. 대상지구는 경기도 화성의 버들저수지 관개지구, 중북 진천의 무수저수지 관개지구의 필요수량과 공급수량을 비교하였다. 필요수량은 HOMWRS를 이용하여 산정하였고, 공급수량은 해당지구의 저수지 운영일지, 양수장 가동일지를 바탕으로 산정하였다. 버들저수지 관개지구의 2008년~2015년 필요수량 및 공급량을 분석한 결과, 필요수량 산정량과 실제 공급수량의 비는 최대 230%에서 최소 110%을 나타냈고, 2008년~2010년의 경우 약 220% 이상의 관개수량이 공급된 것으로 조사되었다. 2014년 및 2015년의 경우 전국적인 극심한 가뭄의 영향으로 필요수량 대비 공급량이 90%정도로 낮아졌으나 공급량 부족은 발생하지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 무수저수지 관개지구의 2008년~2015년 필요수량 및 공급량을 분석한 결과, 공급량과 필요수량의 비는 최소 170%에서 최대 250%로 나타났다. 특히, 2013년도에는 약 250%의 관개수량이 공급되어 초과공급량이 가장 많이 발생하였고, 분석기간 대부분의 년도에서 모두 약 200% 이상이 공급된 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구와 비슷한 지역의 2010년~2015년의 연구 결과를 보면, 경기도 이동지구를 대상으로 공급량과 필요수량의 비는 170%를 공급하는 것으로 나타냈으며, 충북 백곡지구는 210%를 공급한 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구 대상지구의 필요수량 대비 공급량은 과거의 연구와 비슷한 공급율을 보였다. 그러므로 앞으로 극심한 가뭄에 대비하기 위한 효율적인 농업용수 관리방안을 수립할 필요가 있는 것으로 판단된다.

  • This paper examines the situation and tasks of competitive systems of EU transport market focusing on railways. Recently, the EU transport market has changed radically, thanks to an increasingly competitive rail market. The European Commission has stimulated the creation of a competitive environment that will enhance the position of rail. Some scholars have insisted that the rail market is more monopolistic than competitive. However, the case of UK rail privatization suggests this is not the case. Moreover, some countries have a rail market that is more competitive. We draw on a wide range of sources including statistics and analyses of recent phenomena. These demonstrate the emergence of competitive markets in EU rail and the difficulty of developing a competitive market. With regard to the adoption of the competitive market, we examine three things. First, we observe recent cases and trends in competitive markets. Second, we compare the result of competitive markets and non-competitive markets within EU nations. Third, we demonstrate factors of formation of competitive markets and the possible expansion. We identified differences within open market policies amongst EU nations. Although a competitive EU rail market may have some difficulties, it will steadily begin to overcome technological differences and a lack of funds, because EU countries have a common goal, which is to develop the railways, solving, wherever possible both environmental and energy problems. Through this analysis, we found that the free market in EU rail will be extended to deliver efficiency and quality service.

  • The construction project of the Kijang research reactor (KJRR), which is the second research reactor in Korea, has been launched. The KJRR was designed to use, for the first time, U-Mo fuel. Plate-type U-7 wt.% Mo/Al-5 wt.% Si, referred to as U-7Mo/Ale5Si, dispersion fuel with a uranium loading of $8.0gU/cm^3$, was selected to achieve higher fuel efficiency and performance than are possible when using $U_3Si_2/Al$ dispersion fuel. To qualify the U-Mo fuel in terms of plate geometry, the first miniplates [HANARO Miniplate (HAMP-1)], containing U-7Mo/Al-5Si dispersion fuel ($8gU/cm^3$), were fabricated at the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute and recently irradiated at HANARO. The PIE (Post-irradiation Examination) results of the HAMP-1 irradiation test were analyzed in depth in order to verify the safe in-pile performance of the U-7Mo/Al-5Si dispersion fuel under the KJRR irradiation conditions. Nondestructive analyses included visual inspection, gamma spectrometric mapping, and two-dimensional measurements of the plate thickness and oxide thickness. Destructive PIE work was also carried out, focusing on characterization of the microstructural behavior using optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Electron probe microanalysis was also used to measure the elemental concentrations in the interaction layer formed between the U-Mo kernels and the matrix. A blistering threshold test and a bending test were performed on the irradiated HAMP-1 miniplates that were saved from the destructive tests. Swelling evaluation of the U-Mo fuel was also conducted using two methods: plate thickness measurement and meat thickness measurement.

  • Struvite (MgNH4PO4 ⋅ 6H2O) and hydroxyapatite (HAP, Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2) precipitation in urine-separating toilets (NoMix toilets) causes severe maintenance problems and also reduce the phosphate and calcium content. Application of urine separating technique and extraction of by-products from human urine is a cost effective technique in waste water treatment. In this study, we extract urine calcite from human urine by batch scale method, using urease producing microbes to trigger the precipitation and calcite formation process. Extracted urine calcite (calcining at 800℃) is a potential adsorbent for removal of heavy metal(loid)s like (Cd2+, Cu2+, Ni2+, Pb2+, Zn2+ and As3+) along with additional leaching analysis of total nitrogen (T-N), phosphate (T-P) and chemical oxygen demand (COD). The transformations of calcite during synthesis were confirm by characterization using XRD, SEM-EDAX and FT-IR techniques. In additional, the phosphate leaching potential and adsorbate (nitrate) efficiency in aqueous solution was investigated using the calcinedurine calcite. The results indicate that the calcite was effectively remove heavy metal(loid)s lead up to 96.8%. In addition, the adsorption capacity (qe) of calcite was calculated and it was found to be 203.64 Pb, 110.96 Cd, 96.02 Zn, 104.2 As, 149.54 Cu and 162.68 Ni mg/g, respectively. Hence, we suggest that the calcite obtain from the human urine will be a suitable absorbent for heavy metal(loid)s removal from aqueous solution.

  • Management of soil water and fertilization is known to primarily affect physiological properties and yield in plant. The effect of soil water potential and nitrogen application on characteristics of photosynthesis and chlorophyll fluorescence in Schisandra chinensis Baillon was investigated on a sandy loam soil. Net photosyntheis rate and transpiration rate increased as a photon flux density and was highest at -50kPa of soil water potential. Light compensation point ($1.5{\mu}molm^{-1}s^{-1}$) and dark respiration ($0.13{\mu}molCO_2m^{-1}s^{-1}$) was lowest at -50 kPa but maximum photosynthesis rate ($13.10{\mu}molCO_2m^{-1}s^{-1}$) and net apparent quantum yield ($0.083{\mu}molCO_2m^{-1}s^{-1}$) was highest at -50 kPa. As results of chlorophyll fluorescence by OJIP analysis, maximum quantum yield (Fv/Fm) of photosystem II (PSII) and PIabs was higher in treatments of -50 kPa and -60 kPa respectively, which reflects the relative reduction state of PSII. But the relative activities per reaction center such as ABS/RC and DIo/RC were low with decreasing soil water potential. Net photosyntheis rate and transpiration rate were highest at treatment of soil testing 1.0 times ($92kgha^{-1}$). Application of nitrogen resulted in high Fv/Fm, $PI_{abs}$ and low ABS/RC, DIo/RC. This result implies that -50 kPa of soil water potential and nitrogen fertilizer may improve the efficiency of photosynthesis through controlling a photosystem in Schisandra chinensis Baillon.

  • From 1 January 2020, the limit for Sulphur in fuel oil used on board ships operating outside designated emission control areas will be reduced to 0.5 %. This regulation by international maritime organization (IMO) is able to significantly reduce the amount of Sulphur oxides (SOx) discharging from ships and should have environmental advantages and health for all over the world. To meet the regulation, in these days, wet scrubber system is being actively developed. However, this process leads to make washing wastewater. In this study, we evaluated ion exchange resin system in accordance with scrubber wastewater discharge regulation by IMO. Theoretical wastewater used as feed solution of lab scale water treatment systems. The results revealed that nitrate ion was removed selectively in spite of high TDS wash wastewater solution depending on ion exchange resin property. Moreover, it was possible to improve efficiency of the system by optimizing operating conditions.

  • The purpose of this study is to establish strategic suggestions for the direction of the drone-related business by Gyeonggi-do through a survey on the operation and actual conditions of the drone geospatial information service business experienced by Gyeonggi-do civil servants. For this purpose, as a result of surveying the demand survey of 219 people in charge of drone field work, it was analyzed by dividing it into four categories: technology-based operation support, business discovery and support, legal and institutional support, and education and public relations. As an improvement measure, technology-based operation support is to secure service operation efficiency by establishing a dedicated manpower and a dedicated organization and securing drone-related experts.The plan for improvement of project discovery and support is as follows. 1) The government proactively discovers prior research projects for project discovery and support; 2) Legal and institutional support requires support services for simplification of administration such as drone geospatial data shooting schedules and permits, 3) legal and institutional review on improving the scope and restrictions for using drone geospatial data. In the field of education and publicity, it is necessary to operate an education program on the overall operation of drones, and to conduct seminars for each field and use, and to seek activation methods through practical application guidelines for the application process and system. The limitation of this study is that the survey subjects are related to Gyeonggi-do, and in the future, survey analysis through a wide range of participants is required.

  • As the construction production system is reorganized as part of the construction industry innovation plan, direct construction is expanding. According to this trend, this study analyzed the impact and problems of the expansion of direct construction through the position of the construction industry and a study of foreign cases. In addition, by diagnosing the impact of the measures to expand direct construction from various aspects, countermeasures were suggested to suitably apply the direct construction mandatory system. Also, for each alternative, effects and problems were evaluated through interviews with experts in policy/administrative and architecture fields. The alternatives for expanding and improving the efficiency of the direct construction mandatory system derived from this study are four items: granting the discretion of the client, differentiation by scale of construction, utilization of construction guarantee system, and introduction of flexible working group leader system. As a result of the expert interview, all of them were evaluated to have a positive impact directly and indirectly on the expansion of direct construction. This study contributes literature to the application of the direct construction mandatory system by examining the current status of direct construction, and suggests a direction for expanding direct construction through deduction of alternatives for applying the direct construction mandatory system and expert evaluation.
