Since tower cranes are susceptible to wind loads, the operation of the tower crane should be ceased when it exposed to a strong wind. For this reason, even in Korea, the operation limit for wind loading on the tower crane is regulated by a law. Recently the Korean law in which provided the wind speed limit to cease the tower crane operation has been revised from "instantaneous wind speed of 20 m/s" to "instantaneous wind speed of 15 m/s". Although this revision is expected to reduce safety risks in tower crane operation, some field operators still insist to lower the wind speed limit. However, in many countries "wind speed of 20 m/s" is normally used as the maximum in-service wind speed for tower cranes. Therefore, the investigation of the proper wind speed for regulation would be helpful to secure the safety of the tower crane operation under windy condition. In this study the validity of the revised wind speed limit is investigated with the surveys targeted to both tower crane practitioners and parties of concerned in construction companies, in which various questions was provided for a suitable wind speed limit and the answers were analyzed. The results showed that the revised wind speed limit is acceptable to tower crane practitioners as well as the parties of concerned in construction companies and is satisfying the structural stability requirement for in-service state tower crane. Therefore, it can be concluded that the revised wind speed limit is valid in humanly safety point of view.

During the last 10 years, the various type of high speed craft have been greatly developed, and since around of 1990 the large size of high speed passenger and/or cargo vessels are also introduced and took into the service in the various routes over the world. In a marine traffic way some bridge need to build across a rivers, cannals or a waterways. This one will be an obstruction and potential risk of collision in the way of high speed craft. Accordingly some of collision accident have been reported, which were caused by a lost control, wind and hydrodynamic forces, fog or human errors. In this paper a high speed craft having 40 m length is assumed to be collided with a circular type of bridge piers at right angle. The mode of deformation, penetration depth of collapse, impact forces, reduction of speed, loss of kinetic energy, and influence of scantlings, etc. have been calculated in each speed with a time variation to find a maximum values within a limit, and are graphically presented.

The A1B scenario predicts that the mean air temperature of South Korea will rise up to $3.8^{\circ}C$ by 2071. However, the effects of ecosystem services are declining because of various environmental problems, including climate change, land use change, stream intensification, non-point pollution, and untreated garbage. Moreover, horticultural sites which have various ecosystem services suffer highly absorbed heat from the heat island phenomenon associated with climate change. Therefore, we analyzed the heat island phenomenon occurring in an protected horticulture estimated area in Saemanguem, South Korea. Using an advanced measurement method, we examined the air temperature change derived from water channels as well as open spaces. The CFD analysis of coverage ratio 85% design showed wind speed of 2.09 m/s and temperature of $38.07^{\circ}C$. At a coverage ratio of 70%, the wind speed was improved to 2.61 m/s and the temperature was improved to $36.89^{\circ}C$. In Alternative 2 with wetlands and trees, the wind speed was 2.71 m/s and the temperature was $35.90^{\circ}C$. When the coverage ratio decreases to 55%, the wind speed increases showing 3.06 m/s and the temperature decreases showing $35.18^{\circ}C$.

Insulating glass units (IGUs) have been widely used in buildings in recent years due to their superior thermal insulation performance. However, because of the panel reciprocating motion and fatigue deterioration of sealants under long-term wind loads, many IGUs have the problem of early failure of watertight properties in real usage. This study aimed to propose a statistical method for wind-induced deflection of IGU panels during the whole life service period, for further precise analysis of the accumulated fatigue damage at the sealed part of the edge bond. By the estimation of the wind occurrence regularity based on wind pressure return period, the events of each wind speed interval during the whole life were obtained for the IGUs at 50m height in Beijing, which are in good agreement with the measured data. Also, the wind-induced deflection analysis method of IGUs based on the formula of airspace coefficient was proposed and verified as an improvement of the original stiffness distribution method with the average relative error compared to the test being about 3% or less. Combining the two methods above, the deformation of the outer and inner panes under wind loads during 30 years was precisely calculated, and the deflection and stress state at selected locations were obtained finally. The results show that the compression displacement at the secondary sealant under the maximum wind pressure is close to 0.3mm (strain 2.5%), and the IGUs are in tens of thousands of times the low amplitude tensile-compression cycle and several times to dozens of times the relatively high amplitude tensile-compression cycle environment. The approach proposed in this paper provides a basis for subsequent studies on the durability of IGUs and the wind-resistant behaviors of curtain wall structures.

Two different sensors (here, KOMPSAT and RADARSAT) are considered for ship detection, and are used to delineate the detection performance for their data. The experiments are set for coastal regions of Mokpo Port and Ulsan Port and field experiments on board pilot boat are conducted to collect in situ ship validation information such as ship type and length. This paper introduce mainly the experiment result of ship detection by both RADARSAT SAR imagery and landbased RADAR data, operated by the local Authority of South Korea, so called vessel traffic system (VTS) radar. Fine imagery of Ulsan Port was acquired on June 19, 2004 and in-situ data such as wind speed and direction, taking pictures of ships and natural features were obtained aboard a pilot ship. North winds, with a maximum speed of 3.1 m/s were recorded. Ship's position, size and shape and natural features of breakwaters, oil pipeline and alongside ship were compared using SAR and VTS. It is shown that KOMPSAT/EOC has a good performance in the detection of a moving ship at a speed of 7 kts or more an hour that ship and its wake can be imaged. The detection capability of RADARSAT doesn't matter how fast ship is running and depends on a ship itself, e.g. its material, length and type. Our results indicate that SAR can be applicable to automated ship detection for a VTS and SAR combination service.

Precision agriculture relies on information technology, whose precondition is providing real-time and accurate information. It depends on various kinds of advanced sensors, such as environmental temperature and humidity, wind speed, light intensity, and other types of sensors. Currently, it is a hot topic how to collect accurate information, the main raw data for agricultural experts, monitored by these sensors timely. Most existing work in WSNs addresses their fundamental challenges, including power supply, limited memory, processing power and communication bandwidth and focuses entirely on their operating system and networking protocol design and implementation. However, it is not easy to find the self-localization capability of wireless sensor networks. Because of constraints on the cost and size of sensors, energy consumption, implementation environment and the deployment of sensors, most sensors do not know their locations. This paper provides maximum likelihood estimators for sensor location estimation when observations are time-of arrival (TOA) range measurement.

도로터널은 입구와 출구를 제외한 모든 면이 막혀있는 반밀폐공간으로 화재가 발생할 경우 화재 연기는 화재로 인한 열부력과 터널 내 상시 존재하는 기류에 의해 종방향으로 확산하게 된다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 도로터널에는 연기의 이동방향을 제어하거나 화재지점에서 직접 배연함으로써 안전한 대피환경을 확보하고 신속한 구조 및 소화 활동을 위해 제연 설비를 설치하고 있다. 도심지에서는 인구 증가에 따른 교통량 증가로 인해 도심지 도로의 서비스 수준이 저하되어 극심한 정체현상이 빗어지고 있으며, 이에 대한 해결방안으로 도심지에 지하도로의 건설이 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 수소연료전지차(FCEV)의 TPRD를 통한 수소 누출 시 화재가 발생하는 경우, 화재강도는 누출량에 의존하며, 최대 화재강도는 TPRD의 오리피스 직경에 따라 달라진다. 본 연구에서는 TPRD의 오리피스 직경 1.8 mm를 고려하여 최대 화재강도가 15 MW일 때, 소형차전용터널 내 차도 풍속과 대배기구의 개방 간격에 따른 화재연기의 확산거리에 대해 분석하였다. 그 결과, 터널 내 차도 풍속이 1.25 m/s 이하인 경우 터널 내 기류제어가 가능하였으며, 댐퍼 간격이 50 m, 100 m 인 경우 화재로부터 200 m 범위 이내에서 제연이 가능한 것으로 분석됐다.

최근 10년간 전세계적으로 아스팔트 포장을 재활용하는 기술이 급속도로 확산되고 있으며 노후 아스팔트 포장을 폼드 아스팔트 또는 유화 아스팔트를 사용하여 현장에서 바로 100% 재활용하는 현장 상온 재생 아스팔트 포장기술이 다양하게 적용되고 있다. 특히, 아이오와 주에서는 교통량이 적은 지방도로에서 기존 포장의 수명을 연장 시켜주는 현장 상온 재생 아스팔트 공법을 많이 적용하고 있다. 일반적으로 현장 상온 재생 아스팔트 포장층은 수분의 침투나 교통하중으로부터 보호하거나 포장설계를 만족시키기 위해 가열 아스팔트 포장으로 덧씌우기를 한다. 일반적으로 현장 상온 재생 아스팔트 포장층 위에 가열 아스팔트 포장으로 덧씌우기 할 시기는 대부분에 감독자들은 일정한 양생기간 또는 최대 함수비에 근거하여 결정하고 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 감독자가 최적에 덧씌우기 아스팔트 포장 시기를 결정할 수 있도록 현장 상온 재생 아스팔트 포장층의 현장 함수비를 간단하게 측정하여 덧씌우기 시기를 결정할 수 있는 수분 감소계수를 개발하는 것이다. 먼저, 현장 상온 재생 아스팔트 포장층의 함수비를 TDR 함수량계를 사용하여 측정하였고 현장 상온 재생 아스팔트 포장이 시공되는 기간 동안에 강우량, 대기온도, 습도, 바람속도 등 기상정보를 수집하였다. 마지막으로 현장 상온 재생 아스팔트 포장의 초기 함수비, 대기온도, 습도, 바람속도를 변수로 하는 수분 감소계수를 개발하였다. 실제 현장 상온 재생 아스팔트 포장에서 측정한 값을 사용하여 개발한 수분 감소계수는 감독자가 연속적으로 현장 상온 재생 아스팔트 포장층의 함수비를 측정하지 않고 최적의 덧씌우기 포장 시점을 결정할 수 있다.

In this study, the impacts of local meteorology caused by tidal changes in the West Sea on ozone distributions in the Seoul Metropolitan Area (SMA) were analyzed using a meteorological model (WRF) and an air quality (CMAQ) model. This study was carried out during the day (1200-1800 LST) between August 3 and 9, 2016. The total area of tidal flats along with the tidal changes was calculated to be approximately $912km^2$, based on data provided by the Environmental Geographic Information Service (EGIS) and the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries (MOF). Modeling was carried out based on three experiments, and the land cover of the tidal flats for each experiment was designed using the coastal wetlands, water bodies (i.e., high tide), and the barren or sparsely vegetated areas (i.e., low tide). The land cover parameters of the coastal wetlands used in this study were improved in the herbaceous wetland of the WRF using updated albedo, roughness length, and soil heat capacity. The results showed that the land cover variation during high tide caused a decrease in temperature (maximum $4.5^{\circ}C$) and planetary boundary layer (PBL) height (maximum 1200 m), and an increase in humidity (maximum 25%) and wind speed (maximum $1.5ms^{-1}$). These meteorological changes increased the ozone concentration (about 5.0 ppb) in the coastal areas including the tidal flats. The increase in the ozone concentration during high tide may be caused by a weak diffusion to the upper layer due to a decrease in the PBL height. The changes in the meteorological variables and ozone concentration during low tide were lesser than those occurring during high tide. This study suggests that the meteorological variations caused by tidal changes have a meaningful effect on the ozone concentration in the SMA.
