Interrelationship between heavy rainfalls and related with low-level jets(LLJ) is analyzed by using fifty cases of heavy rainfall events occurred over the Korean peninsula from 1992 to 2001. Those cases are classified with four synoptical features. There are 32% chances that the low pressure exist in heavy rainfall over than 150 mm per day case by case. Secondly Changma front and front zone account for 28% of all cases. The ratio of marine tropical boundary type and trough type record 22% and 18% respectively. The moist and warm south-westerly winds associated with low-level jets have been induced convective instability and baroclinic instability. Therefore, heavy rainfall due to the approach of a low pressure occurred at September and before Changma. During the period of Changma, this type has been happened heavy rainfall when low pressure and stationary front has vibrated south and north. Changma type has longer the duration time of precipitation than other types. Third type, located with marine Tropical boundary, have mainly rained in August and September. The last trough case locally downpoured in short time with developing cell. The occurrence low-level jets related to heavy rainfall has increased over 12.5 m/s wind speed. The result is that 43 heavy rainfalls out of 50 cases reach peak at the time of maximum precipitation intensity. Also, the variation of wet number and K-index corresponded with the variation of wind speed. It is found that the number of frequency of low-level jets with southwestward direction has been increased and these jets are mainly passed from the southwest toward to the northeast of the Korean peninsula in that time.

고체 추진제를 사용하는 추진 시스템을 개발하는데 가장 커다란 문제로 인식되고 있는 것은 추진제의 연소 특성을 이해하는 일이다. 그 중에서도 연소실의 압력 진동과 추진제 벽면으로 흡수되는 복사 열전달에 의한 연소율(burning rate)의 변화로 인하여 발생하는 연소 불안정에 대한 이해는 아직도 완전히 규명되지 않고 있다. 고체 추진제의 연소 불안정에 대한 이론적 해석은 준-정상 1차원 해석(Quasi-Steady Homogeneous One-Dimension) 방법에 의하여 단순화된 지배방정식을 해석하는 것이 일반적으로 잘 알려져 있는 방법이다. 이 가정은 고체 추진제가 연수되는 영역을 두께가 매우 얇은 영역의 표면반응영역(surface reaction layer)과 화학반응이 없는 응축상태영역(condensed phase zone) 그리고 기체상태의 연료와 화염이 존재하는 기체상태영역(gas phase zone) 등의 3영역으로 구분하며, 기체상태영역에서 발생하는 교란에 대한 응축상태영역의 반응시간 크기(response time scale)가 매우 크기 때문에 응축상태영역의 반응은 준 정상적으로 일어난다고 가정하는 것이다.그러나, 연소실의 온도가 $3000^{\circ}K$ 정도의 높은 온도이어서 복사 열전달에 의한 고체 추진제의 가열이 중요한 열전달 방법으로 작용하게 되므로 이를 무시한 이론적 해석은 물리적인 중요성이 약하여질 수밖에 없다. 본 연구에서는 기체영역으로부터 전달되는 복사 열전달은 투명(transparent)한 표면반응영역을 통과하여 응축상태영역에서 모두 흡수되며 추진제 표면에서의 복사열방출(emission)을 고려하였다. 또한 연소불안정 현상을 해석하기 위하여 표면반응영역에서의 경계조건은 선형교란량으로 대치하는 Zn(Zeldovich-Novozhilov) 방법을 사용하였다. 이 방법은 기체상태영역에 대한 구체적인 해석없이도 연소불안정 현상을 해석할 수 있는 장점이 잇다. 즉 응축상태영역에서의 연소율과 표면온도는 각각 기체영역으로부터 전달되는 온도구배와 연소압력, 그리고 복사 열전달의 함수관계이므로 선형교란에 의한 추진제표면에서의 교란경계조건을 얻을 수 잇으며, 응축영역의 교란지배방정식과 함께 사용하여 압력교란과 복사 열전달의 교란에 대한 연소율의 교란 증감 여부를 판단하여 연소 불안정 현상을 해석할 수 있다.

The bond-based peridynamic model is able to capture many of the essential characteristics of dynamic brittle fracture observed in experiments: crack branching, crack-path instability, asymmetries of crack paths, successive branching, secondary cracking at right angles from existing crack surfaces, etc. In this paper we investigate the influence of the stress waves on the crack branching angle and the velocity profile. We observe that crack branching in peridynamics evolves as the phenomenology proposed by the experimental evidence: when a crack reaches a critical stage(macroscopically identified by its stress intensity factor) it splits into two or more branches, each propagating with the same speed as the parent crack, but with a much reduced process zone.

It is a common failure type that high-filled embankment slope sideslips. The deformation mechanism and factors influencing the sideslip of embankment slope is the key to reduce the probability of this kind of engineering disaster. Taking Liujiawan high-filled embankment slope as an example, the deformation and failure characteristics of embankment slope and sheet-pile wall are studied, and the factors influencing instability are analyzed, then the correlation of deformation rate of the anti-slide plies and each factor is calculated with multivariate linear regression analysis. The result shows that: (1) The length of anchoring segment is not long enough, and displacement direction of embankment and retaining structure are perpendicular to the trend of the highway; (2) The length of the cantilever segment is so large that the active earth pressures behind the piles are very large. Additionally, the surface drainage is not smooth, which leads to form a potential sliding zone between bottom of the backfill and the primary surface; (3) The thickness of the backfill and the length of the anti-slide pile cantilever segment have positive correlation with the deformation whereas the thickness of anti-slide pile through mudstone has a negative correlation with the deformation. On the other hand the surface water is a little disadvantage on the embankment stability.

In present study, the effect of tunnel excavation on groundwater was investigated by a case study and numerical analysis. The case study revealed that groundwater can be one of environmental impacts resulting from tunnel excavation. To examine variations in groundwater level due to tunnel excavation, numerical analysis was performed. The analysis result indicated that tunnel excavation could affect the groundwater behavior as the groundwater adjacent to tunnel flows in it. Also, it was found that, for the case where groundwater flowing though fractured zone passes tunnel exacvation area, a special care with the excavation would be needed to avoid any tunnel instability due to a large qunatity of goundwater flowing in it.

Similar to other species of Gigartinaceae Chondrus crispus has an alternation of perennial, isomorphic gametophytic and sporophytic generations. As these two generations co-exist independently within populations and obtain their resources in a similar manner, intraspecific competition is expected. In populations within the southern Gulf of St. Lawrence, fronds of both generations of C. crispus occur in similar numbers. This equivalency can be related to substratum instability, where the population is dynamic with a high turn-over rate of genets. These observations support a stochastic hypothesis to account for distribution of gametophytes and sporophytes in this area. Along the Atlantic coast of Nova Scotia, where the substratum is stable, gametophytes are overwhelmingly predominant. Gametophytic predominance is greatest in the lower littoral zone where C. crispus is abundant and space is limited. Under the fucoid canopy where "free-space" exists, the gametophyte to sporophyte ratio is lower. Gametophytic and sporophytic fronds are distributed equally among different size-classes and size-distribution is not considered a competitive factor. Previous studies have shown that sporophytic fronds of C. crispus are more susceptible to infections by endophytic algae and other pathogens, and are more heavily grazed by herbivores than are gametophytic fronds. Thus, mechanistic factors are strongly implied in the selection of gametophytes in the Atlantic population.

Large eddy simulation(LES) methodology used to model the isothermal swirling flows in a dump combustor and the turbulent premixed flame in a model gas turbine combustor. The LES solver was implemented on parallel computer consisting 16 processors. In isothermal flow simulation, the results was compared with that of ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ model as well as experimental data, in order to verify the capability of LES code. To model the turbulent premixed flame in a gas turbine, the G-equation flamelet model was used. The results showd that LES and RANS well predicted the mean velocity field of a non-swirling flow. However, in swirling flow, LES showed a better performance in predicting the mean axial and azimuthal velocities, and the central recirculation zone than those of RANS. In a model gas turbine combustor, the operation condition of high pressure and temperature induced the different phenomena, such as flame length and flow-field information, comparing with the condition of ambient pressure and temperature. Finally, it was identified that the flame and heat release oscillations are related to the vortex shedding generated by swirl flow and pressure wave propagation.

This paper describes numerical efforts to investigate combustion characteristics of HyShot scramjet engine. The corresponding altitude, angle of attack, and equivalence ratio are 28 km, $0^{\circ}$, and 0.426 respectively. $H_2$ and OH mass fraction show that the upstream recirculation zone of injector has flame-holding effects and main combustion begins at 15 cm downstream from cowl. Two-dimensional simulation reasonably predicts combustor inner pressure and also reveals periodic combustion characteristics of HyShot scramjet engine.

Gas hydrate has been attractive topic for two dedicates because it may cause the global warming, ocean hazards associated with the instability of marine slope due to the gas hydrate release as well as high potential of future energy resources. The study on gas hydrate in Ulleung basin has been performed since 1999 to explore the potential and distribution of gas hydrate offshore Korea. The numerous multi channel seismic data have been acquired and processed by Korea Institute of Geosciences and Mineral Resources (KIGAM). The results showed clearly the gas hydrate indicators such as pull up structure, bottom simulating reflector (BSR), seismic blanking zone. The prestack depth migration has been considered as fast and accurate technique to image the subsurface. In this paper, we will present both the conventional seismic data processing and apply Kirchhoff prestack depth migration for gas hydrate data set. The results will be applied for core sample collections and for proposal more detail 2D with long offset or 3D seismic exploration.

To optimize and limit the axial length of baffle in KSR-III engine, stability rating tests using pulse gun as one of artificial disturbance devices have been done. Decay time and other parameters for the evaluation of stabilization ability of engine to external perturbation have been analyzed to quantify stabilization capacity of engine, in other words, dynamic stability margin. If baffle does not cover flame zone enough which can be considered as collision region of injector, it wasn't be able to suppress external perturbation sufficiently. The limit of combustion stability margin of engine is assumed to be 50 mm length baffle.
