Air drying depends on species, density, dimension of wood, the geographical location of the air drying yard, and the meteorological factors of air drying site. If there are four seasons with large difference in temperature and humidity like in Korea, the research of the meteorological factors is required in air drying site. In this study, effective air drying days (EADD) of 24 regions in Korea were calculated by using the average monthly temperature, relative humidity, and wind speed. The EADD in 24 regions in Korea was ranged from 239 days to 291 days, with an average 265 days. This result is 5 days increased compared to the average of EADD calculated using the meteorological factors from 1955 to 1984. The results of multiple regression analysis on the EADD and meteorological factors showed that EADD affected in the order of temperature, relative humidity, and wind speed. As a result of dividing Korea into 4 zones of EADD, the zones of EADD were moved northward compared to previous study due to global warming. As basic data for predicting the moisture content (MC) distribution of Korean red pine logs during air drying conducted in Seoul, the average monthly temperature, relative humidity and wind speed for three years from 2016 to 2018 were presented, and the corresponding changes of the equilibrium MC were analyzed.

In the ship structural design, the material cost of hull weight and the overall cost of construction processes should be minimized considering safety and reliability. In the past, minimum weight design has been mainly focused on reducing material cost and increasing dead weight reflect the interests of a ship's owner. But, in the past experience, the minimum weight design has been inevitably lead to increasing the construction cost. Therefore, it is necessary that the designer of ship structure should consider both structural weight and construction cost. In this point of view, multi-objective optimization technique is proposed to design the ship structure in this study. According to the proposed algorithm, the results of optimization were compared to the structural design of actual VLCC(Very Large Crude Oil Carrier). Objective functions were weight cost and construction cost of VLCC, and ES(Evolution Strategies), one of the stochastic search methods, was used as an optimization solver. For the scantlings of members and the estimations of objectives, classification rule was adopted for the longitudinal members, and the direct calculation method, GSDM(Generalized Slope Deflection Method), lot the transverse members. To choose the most economical design point among the results of Pareto optimal set, RFR(Required Freight Rate) was evaluated for each Pareto point, and compared to actual ship.

The dynamic behavior of dry sand under different vibration conditions is studied through laboratory experiments. Sinusoidal and random vibration experiments of sand are carried out in vertical direction under various surcharge loads. Five different sand samples are selected for the azperiment. They are composed of four different -size samples of particles and one sample which is simulated the field condition. In case of sinusoidal vibration, the change in relative density is measured with acceleration levels. To produce an acceleration, the vibration amplitude is maintained within the range of 0.4mm~0.6mm and the vibration frequency is changed within the range of 3Hz~40Hz. In case of random vibration, the combined sinusoidal acceleration is produced by a random vibration generator and the change in relative density is measured by an accelerometer. Based on the experimental results, it is found that the sandy soil is compacted to 94%~99% of relative density by vertical acceleration and the peak acceleration producing the maximum relative density is proportional to the difference between maximum and minimum void ratios. It is also found that the effect of surcharge loading : the greater the surcharge loading, the larger the change in relative density and the greater the acceleration required to change the relative density.

The Soil-Water Characteristics Curve (SWCC) is affected by the initial density of soil under unsaturated condition. Also, the characteristic of hydraulic conductivity is changed by the initial density of soil. To study the effect of initial density of unsaturated soil, SWCC and the Hydraulic Conductivity Function (HCF) of Jumoonjin sand with various relative densities, 40%, 60% and 75% were measured in both drying and wetting processes. As the results of SWCC estimated by van Genuchten (1980) model, the parameter related to Air Entry Value(AEV), ${\alpha}$ in the wetting process is larger than that in drying process, but the parameters related to the SWCC slope, n and the residual water content, m are larger than those in wetting process. The AEV is increased or Water Entry Value (WEV) is decreased with increasing the relative density of sand. The AEV is larger than the WEV at the same relative density of sand. As the results of HCF estimated by van Genuchten (1980) model which is one of the parameter estimation methods, the unsaturated hydraulic conductivity maintained at a saturated one in the low level of matric suctions and then suddenly decreased just before the AEV or the WEV. The saturated hydraulic conductivity in drying process is larger than that in wetting process. The saturated hydraulic conductivity is decreased with increasing the relative density of sand in both drying and wetting processes. Also, the hysteresis in unsaturated HCFs between drying and wetting process was occurred like the hysteresis in SWCCs. According to the test results, the AEV on SWCC is decreased and the saturated hydraulic conductivity is increased with increasing the initial density. It means that SWCC and HCF are affected by the initial density in the unsaturated soil.

Constant rate period, falling rate period and diffusion coefficient using filefish fillet as sample during drying in hot air drier were determined under controlled conditions of temperature, humidity and air velocity. Drying rate curve consisted of a short period of constant rate and two stages of falling rate period. When 1 to 3m/see of air velocities were applied, diffusion coefficients were in the range of 1.9130 to $2.6187\;{\times}\;10^{-6}\;\textrm{cm}^2/sec$ at $50^{\circ}C$. 2.4806 to $3.5342\;{\times}\;10^{-6}\;\textrm{cm}^2/sec$ at $60^{\circ}C$ and 4.3405 to $5.3042\;{\times}\;10^{-6}\;\textrm{cm}^2/sec$ at $70^{\circ}C$, respectively. Available lysine content was decreased by 15%. 16% and 20% in the fillet dried at $50^{\circ}C$, $60^{\circ}C$ and $70^{\circ}C$, respectively.
