Electrical resistivity tomography was carried out at seawater intrusion monitoring wells located at watershed in coastal areas. It is difficult to identify the characteristics of resistivity near monitoring well in case of using high signalto-noise ratio array due to the high conductivity condition in coastal aquifer although electrical resistivity survey is well adopted to delineate hydrogeological characteristics with the distribution of electrical resistivity. To improve the quality of electrical resistivity survey for two sites with seawater intrusion monitoring wells, inversion with the results of holeto-surface electrical resistivity tomography using single well was executed. The results of inversion for aquifer near wells were verified with the results of drilling log with the informations of fracture, electrical conductivity logging and normal resistivity logging. The inversion for aquifer near one of two wells was also performed at low and high tide with the same electrodes, respectively. From the inversion result, it is possible to obtain the resistivity images with high resolution and to identify the characteristics of aquifer related to seawater intrusion with tidal fluctuation. From this study, it was demonstrated that the hole-to-surface electrical resistivity tomography method accompanied with drilling log, electrical conductivity logging and normal resistivity logging would be useful to delineate the hydrogeological structures near monitoring wells in coastal areas.

It is not possible to define the earth's interior because of it complicity. However, it can be interpreted directly and/ or indirectly. Geophysics is the subject of this study. To study the possibility of construction supervision by geophysical method, geophysical prospecting was performed and studied at the SamYang pumping well area in Cheju Island, where, although underground dam was constructed, the saline water invade the pumping well area. This study focuses on the construction supervision by electrical measurements. Two electric resistivity survey lines are installed in the pumping well site, and at each line electric survey was conducted at ebb and flow tides. To increase the data quality SP (self-potential) survey was also performed. As a result the geophysical exploration methods explained the defect of construction well, and It shows that geophysical probe can be a useful tool for the construction supervision.

This study was compared the degree of consolidation by Hyperbolic, Curve fitting, Asaoka's, Monden's methods using measured value with theoretical curve in consideration of smear effect and well resistance. The results of the study were summarized as follows ; 1. The degree of consolidation by Hyperbolic method was underestimated than the degree of consolidation by Curve fitting, Asaoka's, and Monden's methods. 2. Typical range of horizontal coefficient of consolidation was $C_h=(2{\sim}3)C_v$ in the case considering smear effect and well resistance, and $C_h=(0.5{\sim}2.5)C_v$ in the case disregarding smear effect and well resistance. 3. The degree of consolidation obtained by ground settlement monitoring was nearly same value when the coefficient of permeability of smear zone by back analysis was shown the half that of in-situ and the diameter of smear zone was shown double that of mendrel. 4. Increasing of diameter reduction ratio of drain, the time of consoildation was delayed. The affection of well resistance the case of small coefficient of permeability was much more than that in the case of large coefficient of permeability. It was recommended that design of diameter reduction of drain consider smear effect and well resistance.

Conducting statistical analysis of foundation resistance using sufficient number of well-performed load test results is prerequisite for the calibration of reliable resistance factors for foundation LRFD. In this study, a rational analysis method is proposed so that the proof pile load test results can be reflected in update of resistance statistical characteristics based on Bayesian theory. Then, resistance factors for driven steel pipe piles compatible with Korea foundation practices are updated by implementing this rational analysis method. To accomplish the resistance factor updates, (1) prior pile resistance distribution is constructed based on the results of pile load tests, which loads are imposed at least up to their ultimate limit loads. (2) likelihood function is obtained from the results of proof pile load tests, and (3) posterior pile resistance distribution is updated by combining these prior pile resistance distribution and likelihood function. The resistance factors are updated using the posterior pile resistance following the first-order reliability method (FORM). From the possible results of five consecutive proof pile load tests, the updated resistance factors vary within ranges of 0.27-0.96 and 0.19-0.68 for target reliability indices of 2.33 and 3.0, respectively. Consequently, it was found that the Bayesian theory-implemented method enables the updates of resistance factors in an efficient way when reliable resistance factors are not available due to the lack of well-performed pile load test results.

Terahertz (THz) wave는 광학 영역과 방송파 영역 사이에 광대역 주파수 스펙트럼을 차지하고 있다. X선과는 달리 비이온화 광원으로 직진성, 투과성, 낮은 에너지 (meV)를 가지고 있어 비파괴적이고 무해한 장점을 지니고 있다. 본 연구에서는 In0.53Ga0.47As:Be/In0.52Al0.48As의 multi quantum well (MQW)을 Semi-insulting InP:Fe substrate 위에 active layer의 두께와 적층을 변화주어서 성장하였고Au (200 nm)/Ti (30 nm)의 금속전극으로 공정을 하였다. Ti:Sapphire femtosecond pulse laser를 조사하여 THz time-domain spectrometer 시스템을 이용하여 광전도검출법으로 THz 검출 특성을 연구하였다. THz 검출은 짧은 전하수명과 높은 저항을 요구한다. LTInGaAs의 경우 AsGa antisite로 인하여 짧은 전하수명을 얻게 되면 n-type의 높은 전하밀도를 가지게 되어서 저항이 낮아지게 된다. 높은 저항을 만들기 위하여 Be doping을 이용하여 과잉의 전자들을 보상하고 InAlAs layer를 삽입시켜 보다 높은 저항을 얻었다. LT-InGaAs:Be는 LT-GaAs보다 1/70 정도의 amplitude를 보이는데 LT-InGaAs/InAlAs MQW의 경우 LT-GaAs 대비 약 3/4 정도의 큰 amplitude를 얻었다. 또 active layer의 두께가 얇고 적층이 많을수록 신호가 커지는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이는 상대적으로 band gap이 큰 InAlAs층이 더 높은 저항을 만든 것으로 사료된다.

The substrate resistance is modeled to estimate the performance degradation of analog circuits by substrate noise in a $0.35{\mu}m$ twin-well non-epitaxial CMOS process. The substrate resistance model equations are applied to the P+ guard-ring isolation structure and a good match was achieved between measurements and models. The substrate resistance is divided into four types and a semi-empirical model equation is obtained for each type of substrate resistance. The rms(root-mean-square) error of the substrate resistance model is below 10% compared with the measured resistance. To apply this substrate resistance model to the P+ guard ring structure, ADS(Advanced Design System) circuit simulation results are compared with the measurement results using Network Analyzer, and relatively good agreements are obtained between measurements and simulations.

To analyze the anisotropic characteristics of fractured aquifer, variations of streaming potential were measured during and after pumping over several wells at the two test sites. Surface electrical resistivity survey, normal resistivity logging, and slug test were performed at the wells to identify the hydrogeological structure. Applying the results to the recently suggested model, the aquifer of the two test sites showed confined characteristics. Anisotropic direction appeared in using equi-potential maps from self-potential monitoring results matched well with the results of the hydrogeological test. The self-potential monitoring method adopted in this study would be useful for providing a more reliable information on the anisotropy of aquifer in the pumping test at single well.

In this paper, we designed a spiral inductor and voltage controlled oscillator with the negative resistor for the bluetooth receiver by using 0.25$\mu\textrm{m}$ 1-poly 5-metal CMOS n-well process. The proposed inductor, which applies multi layer metal structure, is a structure that decreases resistance value by increasing he metal thickness. As the resistance value decreases, the quality factor Q has improved. Also, voltage-controlled oscillator is designed applying 1 port negative resistance, and changes its oscillating frequency by varying outside capacitor values. The simulation results show that oscillating frequency is 2.33~2.58GHz changing from 2pF to 14pF, and the oscillator has oscillating power over 0dBm.

In this paper, an efficient means to estimate the dispersion characteristics of active FSS (or ESS) is presented. We numerically investigate the effective permittivity and the transmission coefficient of 2D metal-fiber composites using linear-lumped impedance loading. We modify the GEC method which is applied to 2D fiber composite material with arbitrary fiber orientation. We show that by varying the impedance value it is possible to control the resonance frequency of the array as well as the bandwidth.

The grounding system is necessary to provide means to dissipate electric currents into the earth without exceeding any operating and equipment limits. The ground is composed of various soils and the resistivity of the soil depends on many parameters. It depends on the type of soil and varies with distance as well as with depth. Especially, soil resistivity of volcanic area such as Jeju is ve교 high and it is difficult to acquire necessary grounding resistivity. This paper introduces the efficient grounding construction using coring technique for proper grounding resistance in high resistivity area. Because it is difficult to measure the accurate resistivity of soils, their resistivities are estimated using measured value of ground resistance and equivalent radius method. Estimated resistivities are used for grounding resistance in scheduled construction region.
