Does snow depth initialization have a quantitative impact on sub-seasonal to seasonal prediction skill? To answer this question, a snow depth initialization technique for seasonal forecast system has been implemented and the impact of the initialization on the seasonal forecast of surface air temperature during the wintertime is examined. Since the snow depth observation can not be directly used in the model simulation due to the large systematic bias and much smaller model variability, an anomaly rescaling method to the snow depth initialization is applied. Snow depth in the model is initialized by adding a rescaled snow depth observation anomaly to the model snow depth climatology. A suite of seasonal forecast is performed for each year in recent 12 years (1999-2010) with and without the snow depth initialization to evaluate the performance of the developed technique. The results show that the seasonal forecast of surface air temperature over East Asian region sensitively depends on the initial snow depth anomaly over the region. However, the sensitivity shows large differences for different timing of the initialization and forecast lead time. Especially, the snow depth anomaly initialized in the late winter (Mar. 1) is the most effective in modulating the surface air temperature anomaly after one month. The real predictability gained by the snow depth initialization is also examined from the comparison with observation. The gain of the real predictability is generally small except for the forecasting experiment in the early winter (Nov. 1), which shows some skillful forecasts. Implications of these results and future directions for further development are discussed.

The aim of this study was to develop a new in-situ observation method and instrument in micro-scale to investigate the mechanism of stress corrosion cracking (SCC) initiation of Ni-base alloys in a high temperature water environment of pressurized water reactors (PWRs). A laser confocal microscope (LCM), an autoclave with diamond window view port, and a slow strain-rate tester with primary water circulation loop system were components of the instrument. Diamond window, one of the core components of the instrument, was selected based on its optical, chemical, and mechanical properties. LCM was used to observe the specimen in micro-scale, considering the experimental condition of a high-temperature primary water environment. Using in-situ method and instrument, it is possible to observe oxidation and deformation of specimen surface in micro-scale through the diamond window in a high-temperature primary water in real-time. The in-situ method and instrument developed in this work can be utilized to investigate effects of various factors on SCC initiation in a high-temperature water environment.

We present a new technique for achieving source separation when given only a single charmel recording. The main idea is based on exploiting the inherent time structure of sound sources by learning a priori sets of time-domain basis functions that encode the sources in a statistically efficient manner. We derive a learning algorithm using a maximum likelihood approach given the observed single charmel data and sets of basis functions. For each time point we infer the source parameters and their contribution factors. This inference is possible due to the prior knowledge of the basis functions and the associated coefficient densities. A flexible model for density estimation allows accurate modeling of the observation, and our experimental results exhibit a high level of separation performance for simulated mixtures as well as real environment recordings employing mixtures of two different sources. We show separation results of two music signals as well as the separation of two voice signals.

The application of laser in pipelines was started from the base of using laser in nuclear facilities industries and power plants. Because laser can be delivered to a remote area without any difficulties, the application of laser in many industries can solve many difficulties from limitation of access in danger area and reduced the risks of workers. Therefore, we developed a new experimental technique to measure internal defects of pressure vessels with a combination of shearog-raphy and image processing technique. Conventional NDT methods have been taken relatively much time, money and manpower because of performing as the method of contact with objects to be inspected. But digital shearography is laser-based optical method which allows full-field observation of surface displacement derivatives. This method has many advantages in practical use, such as low sensitivity to environmental noise, simple optical configuration and real time mea-surement. In this paper, we find the optimum shearing magnitude with EFM and experiment and measured internal crack length of the pressure vessels at a real time and estimated the error of the results.

In this study, various pre-treatment methods were evaluated for microalgae separation. These methods aimed to facilitate safe, rapid, and cost-effective online imaging for real-time observation and cell counting. As pre-treatment techniques, heating, chemical hydrolysis, heating combined with chemical hydrolysis, and sonication were employed. The effectiveness of these methods was evaluated in the context of online imaging quality through experimentation on cultivated microalgae (Chlorella vulgaris and Scenedesmus quadricauda). The chemical treatment method was found to be inappropriate for improving image acquisition. The heating pre-treatment method exhibited a drawback of prolonged cell dispersion time. Additionally, the heating combined with chemical hydrolysis method was confirmed to have the lowest dispersion effect for Chlorella vulgaris. Conversely, ultrasonication emerged as a promising technique for microalgae separation in terms of repeatability and reproducibility. This study suggests the potential for selecting optimal pre-treatment methods to effectively operate real-time online monitoring devices, paving the way for future research and applications in microalgae cultivation and imaging.

각 지자체가 관리하고 있는 해안지역은 지형적, 문화적, 경제적으로 큰 영향을 미치는 공간으로 변모하고 있다. 이러한 해안 공간에 대하여 최근 들어 공학적 측면과 경제적, 문화적 측면이 융합된 새로운 형태의 연구들이 많이 진행되고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구는 울산 동구에 위치한 일산지 해안에 대한 해안선 변화에 대하여 다중관측 정보를 이용하여 분석하였다. 해안선 분석을 위하여 VRS-RTK(Virtual Reference System by Real-Time Kinematic) 측량, 항공사진, 지상라이다 측량, 그리고 고정기준점에 의한 측량을 실시하였으며, 특히 고정기준점 설치를 통한 해안선 관측과 분석방법을 제시하였다. 다중관측정보를 분석한 결과 일산지의 경우 해안선의 중하단 부분은 침식현상(6~12m)이 나타나고 있으며, 상단부분은 퇴적현상(3~14m)이 나타남을 알 수 있었다.

인공위성의 추적자료로부터 예비궤도를 결정하고 이것을 초기값으로 해서 계산한 관측치 (C) 와 실제의 관측치(O)의 차이가 최소가 될때까지 반복계산함으로써, 어떤 시각에 있어서 실제의 궤도에 가장 가까운 접융궤도 요소를 얻어내는 미분보정의 과정을 수행했다. 추적한 인공 위성은 TIROS-N계열 위성인 NOAA - 9이고 추척자료는 컴퓨터에 의한 프로그랭 추척을 위해서 TBUS의 평균궤도요소로부터 미리 계산한 예측자료와 위성으후부터 송신되는 1.707GHz의 HRPT신호를 전파연구소의 직경 5m인 자동추적안테나로 추적해서 얻은 실제 자료를 이용했다. 예비궤도의 결정은 추적 자료에 따라 Gauss 방법과 Herrick -Gibbs 방법을 사용했고 미분보정의 과정에 있어서 미분보정행렬의 각 원소들은 Escobal(1975)의 해석적인 방법과 f, g급수를 이용한 수치적인 방법으로 각각 구해서 그 결과를 비교해 보았다. 해석적인 방법파 수치적인 방법의 결과는 거의 일치하였고 각 시간간격에 따른 예비궤도가 다름에도 불구하고 미분보정된 궤도는 같은 값으로 수령했다.
