PURPOSES : The aim of this study was to compare the performance of the QUEENSOD method and the gravity model in estimating Origin-Destination (O/D) tables for a large-sized microscopic traffic simulation network. METHODS : In this study, an expressway network was simulated using the microscopic traffic simulation model, VISSIM. The gravity model and QUEENSOD method were used to estimate the O/D pairs between internal and between external zones. RESULTS: After obtaining estimations of the O/D table by using both the gravity model and the QUEENSOD method, the value of the root mean square error (RMSE) for O/D pairs between internal zones were compared. For the gravity model and the QUEENSOD method, the RMSE obtained were 386.0 and 241.2, respectively. The O/D tables estimated using both methods were then entered into the VISSIM networks and calibrated with measured travel time. The resulting estimated travel times were then compared. For the gravity model and the QUEENSOD method, the estimated travel times showed 1.16% and 0.45% deviation from the surveyed travel time, respectively. CONCLUSIONS : In building a large-sized microscopic traffic simulation network, an O/D matrix is essential in order to produce reliable analysis results. When link counts from diverse ITS facilities are available, the QUEENSOD method outperforms the gravity model.

The up-to-date small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Korea have tried to respond flexibly and rapidly to dynamic business environment and to establish efficient production management system based on information technologies. However, most of SMEs have faced with low applicability of the production management system resulting from high costs of introduction and maintenance. In this paper, a production planning and control system, that is S-PMS (production management system for SMEs), is proposed to solve the problem of low applicability and limited human resources. S-PMS enables production managers to efficiently collect and manage master data with the actual target production systems and explores the bottleneck process by means of simulation techniques to improve productivity. Furthermore, it implements rescheduling mechanism in terms of a variety of process routes. In essence, intuitive dispatching rules and integrated data management of S-PMS improve field applicability of production management system. Consequently, S-PMS is expected to be used as an efficient production management system of SMEs in Korea.

우리나라 서남해역에서 추진될 해상풍력 발전 단지에서 생산된 전기와 기존의 전력망과의 계통연계를 위해서는 해저케이블 설치가 필수적인 요소이다. 특히 해저케이블 설치에 대한 경제성, 시공성 및 안정성 확보를 위해서는 해저케이블 경과지와 해저케이블 보호공법 설계가 이루어져야한다. 본 논문에서는 1979년부터 2002년까지 한국해양과학기술원에서 구축한 장기 파랑산출자료와 제3세대 파랑모델인 SWAN(Simulating WAves Nearshore)을 이용하여 해상풍력단지가 조성될 해역에 대해 만조와 간조시 파랑시뮬레이션을 수행하여 해저케이블 경과지와 보호공법 설계를 위한 기초자료를 제공하고자 하였다. 연구결과, 서남해 해상풍력단지가 조성될 해역의 연평균 Hs는 1.03 m, Tz는 4.47s이고, 주파향은 북서(NW)와 남남서(SSW) 방향이다. NW에서 입사되는 조건(Hs: 7.0 m, Tp: 11.76s)에서 만조시 천해설계파랑 Hs의 분포는 약 4.0~5.0 m, 간조시에 약 2.0~3.0 m로 계산되었다. SSW에서 입사되는 조건(Hs: 5.84 m, Tp: 11.15s)에서 만조시 천해설계파랑 Hs의 분포는 약 3.5~4.5 m이고, 간조시에는 약 1.5~2.5 m로 계산되었다. 해저케이블 경과지 중 경도 UTM 249749~251349 구간 약 1.6 km에서는 NW로 입사되는 파랑의 영향이 크며, UTM 251549~267749 구간 약 16.2 km에서는 SSW로 입사되는 파랑의 영향이 지배적이다. 파랑집중 현상이 두드러지게 나타나는 해역은 위도와 하왕등도 사이 해역으로, 이 해역에서는 주변해역 보다 상대적으로 높은 파고를 나타내고 있다.

A number of heavy rainfall events on the Korean Peninsula are indirectly influenced by tropical cyclones (TCs) when they are located in southeastern China. In this study, a heavy rainfall case in the middle Korean region is selected to examine the influence of typhoon simulation performance on predictability of remote rainfall over Korea as well as direct rainfall over Taiwan. Four different numerical experiments are conducted using Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model, toggling on and off two different improvements on typhoon in the model initial condition (IC), which are TC bogussing initialization and dropwindsonde observation data assimilation (DA). The Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory TC initialization algorithm is implemented to generate the bogused vortex instead of the initial typhoon, while the airborne observation obtained from dropwindsonde is applied by WRF Three-dimensional variational data assimilation. Results show that use of both TC initialization and DA improves predictability of TC track as well as rainfall over Korea and Taiwan. Without any of IC improvement usage, the intensity of TC is underestimated during the simulation. Using TC initialization alone improves simulation of direct rainfall but not of indirect rainfall, while using DA alone has a negative impact on the TC track forecast. This study confirms that the well-suited TC simulation over southeastern China improves remote rainfall predictability over Korea as well as TC direct rainfall over Taiwan.

PURPOSES : This study evaluated the feasibility of implementing protected-permissive left-turn (PPLT) signals at three-leg signalized intersections. METHODS: A three-leg signalized intersection with permissive left-turn was first selected. A VISSIM simulation model was constructed using data collected from the test site. The VISSIM network was calibrated by adjusting related parameter values in order to minimize the difference between the simulated and surveyed critical gap. The calibrated network was validated by the number of waiting left-turning vehicles per cycle. Finally, the mobility and safety measures were extracted from simulation runs in which permissive, protected left turns as well as PPLTs were realized based on diverse traffic volume scenarios. RESULTS : The mobility-related measures of effectiveness (MOEs) of the case with PPLT outperformed the other two left-turn treatment scenarios. In particular, the average waiting time per cycle for the left-turn vehicles in the case with PPLT was reduced by 30 s. The safetyrelated MOEs of the case with PPLT were somewhat higher than those in the case with protected left-turns and much higher than those in the case with permissive left-turns. CONCLUSIONS : Based on the mobility- and safety-related MOEs generated from the VISSIM simulation runs, the use of PPLT seems to be feasible at three-leg signalized intersections where the left-turn is permissive and a pedestrian signal exists at the conflicting approach. However, in order to use the PPLT in earnest, it is necessary to revise the road traffic act, traffic signs, and related manuals.

In this study we investigated odor (hydrogen sulfide) dispersion around a cubic building by using commercial FLUENT CFD code. The FLUENT Shear-Stress Transport (hereafter SST) k-ω turbulence model was used to simulate odor dispersion from an odor source. The results were compared with a wind tunnel experiment and other simulation results. SST k-ω turbulence model provided good grounds for making reasonable predictions about the building surface concentrations and concentration profiles of selected leeward positions of the cubic building. It was found that a vent, which was positioned 7 m above the top of the square building center, decreased the plume length lower by 0.73 and increased the plume height by 1.43 compared to roof top vents. It was also found that by increasing the vent height there a corresponding decrease in the maximum dimensionless concentration around the roof surface.

In this paper, the wakes behind a square cylinder were simulated using two kinds of different turbulence models for the eddy viscosity concept such as the zero- and the one-equation model in which the former is the mixing length model and the latter is the k-equation model. For comparison between numerical and analytical solutions, we employed three skill assessments: the correlation coefficient(r) for the similarity of the wake shape, the error of maximum velocity difference(EMVD) for the accuracy of wake velocity and the ratio of drag coefficient(RDC) for the pressure distribution around the structure. On the basis of the numerical results, the feasibility of each model for wake simulation was discussed and a suitable value for the empirical constant was suggested in these turbulence models. The zero-equation model, known as the simplest turbulence model, overestimated the EMVD and its absolute mean error(AME) for r, EMVD and RDC was ranging from 20.3 % to 56.3 % for all test. But the AME by the one-equation model was ranging from 3.4 % to 19.9 %. The predicted values of the one-equation model substantially agreed with the analytical solutions at the empirical mixing length scale L=0.6b1/2 with the AME of 3.4 %. Therefore it was concluded that the one-equation model was suitable for the wake simulation behind a square cylinder when the empirical constant for eddy viscosity would be properly chosen.

Nowadays, consumption of fisheries products is increasing. There are several factors, one of which is a quantitative development through aquaculture. Another factor is an increase qualitative consumption of fish which require that fish be supplied alive. This requires a lot of technical effort to transport the live fish that have low survival rate (c.f. tuna and mackerel) in coastal waters and in the open sea. To develop a towing cage for transporting the live fish, model test in a circulate water channel and simulation by computer tool were carried out. In order to spread vertically, floats were attached at the upper part of the cage, and iron chains attached at the lower part of the cage. For horizontal spreading, kites were attached on the cage. The tension and spreading performance of the cage were measured. The result shows that the tension and reduction ratio of inside volume of the cage were tended to increase with increased towing speeds. The suitable operation condition in towing cage was 1.0 m/s towing speeds with vertical spreading force 8.7 kN, horizontal spreading force 5.6 kN; in this case the reduction ratio of inside volume of the cage was estimated as 25%.

김치의 숙성과정 중 일어날 수 있는 식품위생상 이물질의 오염방지를 위하여 혼입시험을 고안하여 이를 모니터링 하였다. 먼저, 시험군은 소금으로 절이고 양념으로 버무린 김치였고, 대조구는 소금에 절이지 않았거나 양념을 하지 않은 배추를 선택하였다. 오염원으로는 배추와 색깔이 유사한 청개구리를 선택하였다. 그 결과, 염분이 첨가되지 않은 대조구에서는 오염원이 10일 이상 생존하였으나 염분이 첨가된 시험구의 이물질은 5일 이상 생존할 수 없었다. 김치제조 중에 혼입된 생물학적 이물질은 대개 5일정도 생존하므로 소비자에 의하여 살아있는 상태로 발견된 사실은 제조 후에 혼입되었다고 추정할 수 있다.

PURPOSES: This study performs fundamental research on ramp-metering design criteria. METHODS: We carefully review previous studies in terms of ramp-metering design criteria and then consider applicability in Korea. For this, traffic simulation model is employed to analyze actual effect according to specific location of stop-line when implementing rampmetering. RESULTS : When a stop-line moving forward with a 50m interval, travel speed at mainline relative to current stop-line location tends to decrease. However, traveling speed at approach roads increase about 5~18% under the same condition. When a stop-line location moving backward with a 50m interval, mainline travel speed increase approximately 17~32% whereas traveling speed at approach roads decrease. All cases are compared with the current stop-line location. CONCLUSIONS : We believe that both cases are useful with respect to freeway management. For example, moving forward a stop-line case can be used management for queuing area at ramp section and approach roads. Moving backward a stop-line case can be used for traffic control, focusing on mainline of freeways.

기후-전구대기화학모델을 이용하여 엘니뇨가 대류권 오존에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 40년간(1971-2010) 대류권 오존을 EOF 분석한 결과에서 열대 중앙-동태평양에서 오존의 감소가 관측과 유사하게 잘 모의되었다. 그러나 인도양-인도네시아 부근의 오존 증가는 관측에 비해 약하게 모의되었다. 엘니뇨에 의한 오존변동 과정을 이해하기 위하여 2006년 엘니뇨의 경우를 좀 더 자세히 분석하였다. 엘니뇨의 발생 시 중앙-동태평양의 오존 감소는 활발해진 상승운동과 그에 따른 수증기량 증가로 오존의 체류시간이 짧아졌음에 기인하였다. 해수면 온도 강제력으로 유도된 하강기류 편차와 수증기 감소로 인도양 대류권 상층 오존이 증가하였다.

현재의 내비게이션 시스템은 대부분 미국의 GPS(Global Positioning System)로부터 전파를 수신하여 측위를 수행하고 있으며, 수신기 알고리듬과 안테나 성능의 발전으로 인해 위치정확도가 지속적으로 향상되고 있다. 그러나 도심부 빌딩숲에서는 GNSS(Global Navigation Satellite System) 전파가 고층건물에 가려져 도달하지 않거나 반사 및 회절에 의해 위치정확도가 매우 저하되기도 한다. 도심부의 GNSS 측위정확도를 현장 관측하는 데에는 많은 비용과 시간이 소요되므로, 이 연구에서는 3차원 건물지도와 전파도달모형 및 상관기모형을 이용하여 도심부 GNSS의 측위정확도를 모의하는 GPASS(GNSS Position Accuracy Simulation System)를 개발하고 그 가용성을 검증하고자 한다. 대표적 빌딩숲인 도쿄도청 부근을 대상으로 모의를 수행하고 현장 관측치와 비교한 결과, 측위율은 실측치와 4.6% 정도의 차이를 보였고 위치정확도는 실측치와 3.0% 정도의 차이를 나타냄으로써 상당히 정밀한 모의가 가능함이 확인되었다. 본 연구에서 개발한 GPASS는 3차원 건물지도를 이용하여 임의의 시공간에 대해 모의를 수행하므로, 내비게이션 서비스 품질의 시공간적 평가 및 개선을 위한 기초자료 산출에 활용될 수 있다.

The OGS model is configured and used for simulation of the LASGIT project. The modeling conditions and the simulation results from the previous work by Walsh and Calder (2009) are analyzed to see if the simulation configuration is done correctly and to apply for the LASGIT project. Except for the unrealistic modeling conditions used previously, the simulation results successfully demonstrated helium propagation that is typical for the two-phase flow. The results indicated that the relations of capillary pressure and the relative permeability against water saturation used previously should be updated. An elaborated simulation with more realistic parameters should be used to improve the weak points of preliminary work.

Epidemic models on disease spread attempt to simulate disease transmission and associated control processes. This study reviewed published papers on epidemiological models for the management of foot-and-mouth disease in the world. In addition, an individual animal-based, spatially-explicit, stochastic disease transmission model, the Davis Animal Disease Simulation (DADS) model, was described in the frame of an international collaborative research project participating three countries: Republic of Korea, USA, and New Zealand. In this project, the Korean team is aiming at developing the most appropriate parameters for livestock and epidemiology of foot-and-mouth disease outbreaks. On the other hand, the purpose of foreign counterparts is validating their models: DADS (USA) and InterSpread Plus (New Zealand). Classification of farm types and preliminary estimations on the frequency of intra-herd contacts were also presented. This research project is expected to provide precious information to plan a strategy that will facilitate the eradication of foot-and-mouth disease from Korea.

본 논문에서는 1:5 축소 10층 내력벽식 철근콘크리트(RC) 내력벽식 공동주택의 지진모의실험의 결과를 제시한다. 실험의 결과는 다음과 같다. (1) 본 실험 모델에서 재현주기 50년 지진에 대해서는 선형 탄성응답을 보이며, 우리나라의 설계지진에 대해서는 비선형 거동을 확인할 수 있다.

본 연구의 목적은 지진모의실험을 위한 1:5 축소 10층 R.C. 공동주택 모델의 제작과정을 통하여, 실험체의 효율적인 설계 및 제작 과정을 개발하는 것이다. 실험체의 축소율은 가용한 진동대의 크기(5m{\times}5m)와 최대 허용무게(600kN)및 모델 철근(D3 볼트, {\phi}2 강선)의 경제성과 상용성을 고려하여 결정하였다. 모델 철근은 현장에 바로 설치하기 어렵기 때문에 철망을 제작한 후 현장에서 조립하였다. 벽체와 슬래브를 동시에 타설할 경우 거푸집의 탈형이 매우 어렵기 때문에, 벽체를 먼저 타설하고 양생 후 탈형한 뒤 슬래브 거푸집을 설치하였다. 벽체 거푸집은 반복 사용이 가능한 Slip form 형태로 한쪽은 합판, 다른 한쪽은 아크릴로 제작하여 타설시 밀실도를 확인할 수 있도록 하였다. 1:5 축소 10층 R.C. 공동주택모델을 제작하기 위해 총 제작 기간은 약 6개월이 소요되었으며, 전임 연구원 5명, 작업보조원 612명 일의 인원이 투입되었다.

Simulation technique for the fish behavior was applied to estimate fish school movement in the cage net. Individual-based fish behavior model (Huth and Wessel, 1991) was evaluated in a free area to understand the characteristics for the model, and the movement in the cage net was simulated by defining the fish reaction against the displacement of cage net. As a result, the distance to the net was not considerably changed and the space among fishes in cage net was slightly decreased by reducing the net space. Swimming area was, however, significantly affected by changing the net space and the relationship between swimming area and net displacement was theoretically estimated as y=-0.21x+1.02 (R2=0.96). these results leads the conclusion that individual-based model was appropriated to describe the fish school reaction in the cage net and be able to use for evaluating the influence on cultured fish.
