Steel deck plate is a preferable structure in the long span bridge construction because of the weight decrease and the aesthetic enhancement. But its orthogonal anisotropic structure is connected with various subsidiary materials so that the fatigue transfer is complex. This study will be conducted with the a few strain gauge is installed in the weak range of hot spot stress where the actual fatigue crack is anticipated and will compare it with the fatigue crack range and the allowable fatigue stress category of the steel deck plate in home and abroad

최근water front나 자연형 하천의 개발이 많아지는 가운데 해안에 인접한 하천설계에 있어 일반적으로 기점 홍수위가 만조 시 수위보다 높게 계산되면 조석의 영향을 고려하지 않고 기점 홍수위만으로 수리해석을 하는 경우가 대부분이다. 그러나 본 연구는 기점 홍수위가 만조 시 수위 보다 높더라도 밀려오는 조류의 영향으로 하천 기점 홍수위의 변화를 야기시킬 수 있을 것이라 판단하여 부산의 지방하천인 온천천이 조석현상에 의해 어떤 흐름의 변화가 발생하는지를 Delft-3D를 이용하여 분석하였다. 수치해석 결과 하류 경계조건에 조석영향을 고려하였을 경우 하천의 일정범위까지 수위가 조석의 주기성을 나타내었고 하천 상류방향으로 수위 변동범위가 확대되었다.

This research was done to clarify the cooling effect of water particles generated from a fountain. This effect is a one way to control the heat island effect of big cities. The result of this research was drawn by setting the jets of water in a certain height, and then studying the diffusion of water particles, which is affected by the size of the particles and the wind speed, and the cooling effect caused by the diffusion. 1) When a diameter of a water drop was 500 ㎛ and the wind speed was 2.0 to 6.0 m/sec, the water drop diffused 75 to 190m, and the water vapor spread over 175 to 440 m. As a result, there was more than 0.5℃ of cooling effect on the temperature in the atmosphere 130 to 330m around the water fountain. 2) When a diameter of a water drop was 750 ㎛ and the wind speed was 2.0 to 6.0 m/sec, the water drop diffused 65 to 150 m, and the water vapor spread over 160 to 405 m. Moreover, there was more than 0.5℃ of cooling effect on the temperature in the atmosphere 110 to 275 m around the water fountain. 3) After studying on the relationship between the diameter of water drop and the wind speed, and the diffusion of water particles and the range of the atmosphere that was cooled, a result could be drawn from the research that the smaller the diameter of the water vapor gets and the faster the wind speed becomes, the wider the water particles diffuse and the cooler the atmosphere around the fountain becomes. 4) This research further extrapolates that when the ordinary water(tap water, water from river and stream) is used in a fountain, the cooling effect of the air near the fountain can be approached similarly. If the seawater is used in a fountain, there is to be more to concern not only on cooling effect on the air, but also on other effects on surrounding environment generated by the salt in seawater.

The human-following is one of the significant procedure in human-friendly navigation of mobile robots. There are many approaches of human-following technology. Many approaches have adopted various multiple sensors such as vision system and Laser Range Finder (LRF). In this paper, we propose detection and tracking approaches for human legs by the use of a single LRF. We extract four simple attributes of human legs. To define the boundary of extracted attributes mathematically, we used a Support Vector Data Description (SVDD) scheme. We establish an efficient leg-tracking scheme by exploiting a human walking model to achieve robust tracking under occlusions. The proposed approaches were successfully verified through various experiments.

온라인 게임 시장의 규모가 커짐에 따라 온라인 게임의 서버 성능에 대한 중요성이 커지고 있다. 본 논문은 게임 속의 객체 상태에 대한 동기화 패킷을 줄여 서버의 성능을 높이는 방안을 제안한다. 제안하는 방식은 게임 속의 각 객체의 이동 범위에 대한 예측과 못가는 지역에 대한 처리를 통하여 지형간의 경계이동 횟수가 감소될 수 있도록 지형을 재구성 할 수 있는 해결책을 제공한다. 성능평가는 제안하는 지형분할방식이 기존방법에 비해 동기화 패킷에 대한 처리량이 줄어드는 것을 보여준다.

터널에서 외기에 접촉되는 부분은 입, 출구부와 환기구가 있으며 이러한 부위의 열화와 그 진행속도는 외기의 영향을 받지 않는 구간과는 다른 차이를 보여준다. 실제로 터널에서 외기에 접촉되는 부분뿐만 아니라 외기의 영향을 받는 구간은 일반적인 구간과는 다른 관점에서 접근해야 할 필요가 있고 보수나 보강공법 적용시에도 우선 고려가 되어야 한다. 그럼에도 불구하고 터널의 유지관리시, 점검 및 정밀안전진단시 외부온도의 영향을 받는 구간의 결함 및 열화는 그 범위가 광범위함에도 불구하고 구조체의 안전성에 미치는 영향이 미소하다는 이유로 소홀히 되고 있는 실정이며 일시적인 계절영향, 온도 변화요인에 의한 것으로 판단하여 특별한 관리가 되지 않고 있는 실정이다. 이에 본 논문은 외부온도, 기온의 터널내 영향범위를 산출하기 위해 2개소의 도심지 터널에 대해서 적외선 열화상카메라를 활용하여 터널내의 외부온도 영향범위를 결정하고 그 영향범위에서 발생되는 콘크리트라이닝 또는 콘크리트 구조체의 결함 및 열화원인을 분석하고 유지관리시 중점을 두고 시행해야 할 사항을 제시하였다.

This paper proposes a novel face detection method that finds tiny faces located at a long range even with low-resolution input images captured by a mobile robot. The proposed approach can locate extremely small-sized face regions of 12x12 pixels. We solve a tiny face detection problem by organizing a system that consists of multiple detectors including a mean-shift color tracker, short- and long-rage face detectors, and an omega shape detector. The proposed method adopts the long-range face detector that is well trained enough to detect tiny faces at a long range, and limiting its operation to only within a search region that is automatically determined by the mean-shift color tracker and the omega shape detector. By focusing on limiting the face search region as much as possible, the proposed method can accurately detect tiny faces at a long distance even with a low-resolution image, and decrease false positives sharply. According to the experimental results on realistic databases, the performance of the proposed approach is at a sufficiently practical level for various robot applications such as face recognition of non-cooperative users, human-following, and gesture recognition for long-range interaction.

Genomic DNA samples isolated from four geographical freshwater crab (Eriocheir sinensis) populations collected in the inland of the Korean Peninsula (Gunsan, Paju, and Nampo) and a Chinese site, were used for PCR amplification. Seven decamer primers generated 19 specific loci (19/243 loci, 7.81%) in the Gunsan population, 32 (32/215 loci, 14.88%) in the Paju population, 19 (19/231 loci, 8.23%) in the Nampo population and 62 (62/340 loci, 18.24%) in a Chinese population. The average 8.9 specific loci exhibited inter-individual-specific characteristics, thus revealing DNA polymorphisms in the Chinese population. The number of unique shared loci to each population and number of shared loci by the four populations were generated by molecular analysis using seven primers in four populations. 35 unique shared loci to each population, with an average of 5.0 per primer, were observed in the Gunsan population, and 50 loci, with an average of 7.1 per primer, were observed in the Chinese population. The hierarchical dendrogram indicates three main branches: cluster 1 (GUNSAN 01GUNSAN 05, PAJU 06PAJU 10 and NAMPO 11NAMPO 15) and cluster 2 (CHINESE 16, 17, 18, 19 and 20). Conclusively individual no. 20 of the PAJU 10 freshwater crab was most distantly related to CHINESE no. 20 (genetic distance = 0.667). Taken together, these results demonstrate the potential of RAPD analysis to identify diagnostic markers for the identification of four freshwater crab populations.

Excessive self-defense is applicable if an act of self-defense exceeds the reasonable limits and lacks requisite appropriateness. Excessive self-defense is not punishable under Article 21, Clause 3 of Criminal Law, if it is caused by fear, astonishment, excitement or confusion under anxious circumstances such as during night time. According to Article 21, Clause 2, in case of excessive self-defense under extenuating circumstances, either a reduced sentence or is unpunishable. The illegality and liability of excessive self-defense under Article 21, Clause 3 are reduced and besides its liability is expirated because it can not be expected that an offender acts within legal boundaries under such circumstances. Under Article 21, Clause 2, the illegality and liability are reduced and it is unpunishable because it lacks the necessity for punishment. Excessive self-defense is a complicated matter connected with criminal liability, illegality and sentencing. It is not easy to grasp the nature of excessive self-defense and its applicable range because it borders on self-defense and mistaken self-defense, and is indistinguishable from them. The Supreme Court has not clarified its stand on the requisites of excessive self-defense. The Supreme Court has interpreted not only the requisite appropriateness of self-defense, but also the requisites of excessive self-defense strictly. It ruled a decision upon the above mentioned first case as excessive self-defense and the second case as self-defense. However, it should have ruled that self-defense was justified regarding the first case and ruled the second case as mistaken excessive self-defense with either reduced liability or an expirated sentence.

The atmospheric conditions and the transport mechanism of long-range transport of air pollutants from coastal area to inland area were investigated using regular meteorological data and air pollution data obtatined from the southeastern area of Korea. Daytime temperature over the inland area(Taegu) was higher than that over the coastal area(Pusan) and the temperature difference of about 5∼6℃ when the thermal low was most fully developed and the sea level pressure over Taegu was lower than that over Pusan by about 4∼5 hPa at that time. Therefore this low pressure appeared to the thermally induced low. Air mass polluted from the coastal area during the morning period was transported inland area, at first by the sea breeze and by the large scale wind system toward the thermal low generated in the mountainous inland region. This was explained by the fact that the concentration of air pollutants over Taegu increased throughtout the late afternoon.
