In this research, a River Recreation Index Model (RRIM) was developed to provide sufficient information on the water quality of rivers to the public in order to secure safety of publics. River Recreation Index (RRI) is an integrated water quality information for recreation activities in rivers and expressed as the point from 0 to 100. The proposed RRIM consisted of two sub models: Fecal Coliform Model (FCM) and Water Quality Index Model (WQIM). FCM predicted Fecal Coliform Grade (FCG) using a logistic regression and WQIM synthesized water quality parameters of, DO, pH, turbidity and chlorophyll a into Water Quality Index (WQI). FCG and WQI were integrated into RRI by the integrating algorithm. The proposed model was applied to upstream of Gangjeong Weir in Nakdong River, and compared with Real Time Water Quality Index (RTWQI) which is the existing water quality information system for recreation use. The results show that calculated RRI reflected change of integrated water quality parameters well. Especially chlorophyll a showed Pearson correlation coefficient -0.85 with RRI. Also, RRIM produced more conservative index than RTWQI because RRI was calculated considering uncertainty of water quality criteria. Further, RRI showed especially low values when fecal coliform was predicted as low grade.

In this paper, we study some properties of condition for fuzzy data, agrement index by ratio of area and the uniformly most powerful fuzzy test of hypothesis. Also, we suggest a confidence bound for uniformly most powerful fuzzy test. For illustration, we take the most powerful critical fuzzy region from exponential distribution by likelihood ratio and test the hypothesis of ${\chi}^2$-distribution by agreement index.

This study suggests two types of indices to evaluate individual student's achievement of foreign language abilities between two time points. One, named uniform achievement index, is defined as the ratio of additional score between two time points to the total score range of a test. The second one, named relative achievement index, is defined as the ratio of additional scores between two time points to the remaining score at the base time point to the full score if the score is improved during the given period of time, and if not, is defined as the ratio of the amount of losing scores to the difference of the score at the base time point from the least score of the test. Two indices are both having values between -1 to 1, and easy to interpret. Also, they are eligible to compare scores from different tests at the same time. However, relative achievement index will be more useful to compare student having different base scores because it is consider each student's test score at the base time.

지수선로는 특히 microwave공학에서 Impedance 변환용으로 널리 사용되고 있으나 그 Impedance 함수 또는 반사계수의 표시식의 복잡성으로 인하여 이 선로의 특성연구, 설계에 있어서 적지 않은 계산의 곤란이 따른다. 따라서 이의 도식해법이 환영된다. 본논문에서 우리는 지수선로의 Impedance함수를 일차변환하면 보통의 균일선로에 대한 것과 유사한 표시식이 얻어짐에 착안하여 복소수의 일차변환을 대표하는 W-평면과 Smith chart 또는 직교 Impedance diagram을 병용하던지 W-평면을 직교 Impedance diagram에 중첩시키던지 또는 Smith chart의 constant-r constant-x도의 label를 고쳐서 사용하던지 하여 지수선로의 문제를 도식으로 해결하는 방법을 모색하였다. 또 같은 착안으로부터 지수선로의 집중정수 등가회로가 흥미있게 구해짐을 부수적으로 지적하였다.

The object of this study was to investigate nitrogen fixation activity of rhizobium inoculated at seed coat when drought condition was applied in flowering period of soybean c.v. Samnamkong. The rhizobia used in this experiment were indigenous rhizobium, R2l4, RJl-29, USDA110 and USDA122. The experiment was done with 1/2000 Wagner pots in laboratory and greenhouse and was tested in completely randomized design with four replications. Nitrogen fixation activity in coventional culture was the highest in R2l4 and indigenous rhizobium among the five rhizobia strains. As given drought condition from flowering to maturity, nitrogen fixation activity was higher in R2l4 and RJl-29 than indigenous rhizobium. Leaf area and relative index (drought/convention) of pod weight were higher in USDA122, RJl-29 and R2l4 than indigenous rhizobium as given drought condition from flowering to maturity. High positive correlation was observed between nitrogen fixation activity of rhizobium and relative index(drought/convention) of pod weight. High negative correlation was observed between respiration of plant and relative index (drought/convention) of leaf area.

It is widely known that individuals with mental retardation (MR) and Down's syndrome (DS) often develop early onset periodontal diseases. In this study, the prevalence of periodontopathic bacteria in MR persons and DS patients was compared with normal persons. Plaque index and gingival index were measured. Five periodontopathic bacteria, Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans. Porphyromonas gingivalis, Tannerella forsythia, Treponema denticola, Fusobacterium nucleatum were surveyed in subgingival plaque samples by the polymerase chain reaction. Results : 1. Plaque index and gingival index were higher in MR persons group and DS patients group than normal persons group (p<0.05). 2. The prevalence of periodontopathic bacteria in normal persons group were lower than that of MR persons group and DS. Significant differences were observed in the prevalence of P. gingivalis, T. denticola and A. actinomycetemcomitans(P<0.05). 3. Prevalence of P. gingivalis(5.9%) at age 8-10 was lower than other ages in normal persons group, and its prevalence increased with age Prevalence of P. gingivalis, T. denticola and A. actinomycetemcomitans at MR persons group and DS patients group were higher than those of same ages of normal persons group. 4. Plaque index was associated with T. denticola and gingival index was associated with T. denticola and A. actinomycetemcomitans(P<0.05). These results suggested that plaque index, gingival index and prevalence of periodontopathic pathogens, especially P. gingivalis, T. denticola and A actinomycetemcomitans in DS patients group and MR persons group are higher than those of normal persons group.

It is widely known that individuals with Down's syndrome(DS) often develop early onset severe periodontal diseases. In this study, We examined the prevalence of periodontopathic bacteria in DS patients to compare controls with mental disabilities(MD) The subjects were 27 DS patients (7 to 19 years old) and 27 age-matched controls with MD. Plaque index and gingival index were measured. And 5 pathogens, Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans, Porphyromonas gingivalis, Tannerella forsythia, Treponema denticola, Fusobacterium nucleatum, were surveyed in subgingival plaque samples using a polymerase chain reaction. No significant difference in plaque index and gingival index were observed between the DS and control group. The prevalence in DS was 96.3% for F. nucleatum, 74.1% for T. forsythia, 63.0% for P. gingivalis, 55.6% for A. actinomycetemcomitans. 40.7% for T. denticola. No significant differences were observed in the prevalence of periodontopathic bacterias between the DS and control. Prevalence of P.g(16.7%) at age $7{\sim}10$ is lower than other age group in DS, but its prevalence increased with age. Prevalence of A.a(83.3%) is peak at age $7{\sim}10$ in DS. These results suggest that various periodontopathic pathogens can colo nize in the very early childhood of DS and MD patients. But no significant difference was observed in the prevalence of periodontopathic bacterias between the DS and control.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of substitution of the flour with coffee silver skin (at the levels of 0%, 3%, 5%, and 7%) on the characteristics of yellow layer cake. The specific gravity of batter increased significantly as the content of silver skin increased. The specific volume of cake decreased significantly as the content of silver skin increased. The volume index decreased significantly as the silver skin content increased, while the symmetry index and uniformity index were not influenced. It was found that control had the highest cake indexes. Texture analysis showed that control had the lowest hardness and highest springiness. Hardness value of cakes was increased by adding silver skin; however, the springiness value of cakes with silver skin decreased during storage. According to sensory evaluation, experiment groups scored the higher points in texture acceptance than control. Above all, SS5 scored the highest points in aroma, taste and SS3 scored the highest points in appearance and overall acceptance.
