To investigate the engineering properties of basalt in Cheju Island, rock samples of Pyosenri basalt, trachy-basalt and scoria were taken from Seoguipo-Si Seongsan-Eup area. The laboratory tests such as absorption test, specific gravity test, permeability test, Schmidt hammer test, elastic wave test and uniaxial compressive testwere carried out for the collected rock samples. The absorption, the specific gravity, the permeability, the elastic wave velocity and uniaxial compressive strengthwere investigated and analyzed as the results of these tests. As the result of regression analysis for the relationship between the rebound values from Schmidt hammer test and the uniaxial compressive strengths from uniaxial compressive test, especially, estimation equations were proposed using the rebound values from Schmidt hammer test. Therefore, the simple method to estimate the uniaxial compressive strength was provided.

유기물오염은 호수와 하천에서 가장 흔히 나타나는 오염의 형태이다. 개발도상국에서는 하수처리시설이나 생활용수처리시설에서 유기물이 처리되지 않아 수중의 유기물함량이 증가하여 피해가 나타난다. 물환경보전법에 따라 유기물질을 측정하는 지표에는 BOD, COD, TOC가 있다. 그 중 BOD, COD 측정은 절차가 복잡하고 오래 걸리며, 생물분해가 불가능하거나 유독물질이 존재하는 유기물질인 경우에는 낮은 결과 또는 측정이 불가능하다. 이러한 이유로 환경부에서는 TOC중심관리로 전환되고 있다. 대부분의 수질항목 측정의 경우 현장시료를 채취하여 실험실에서 분석하는 수분석을 이용한다. 하지만 수분석의 경우 인력이 많이 투입되고 분석수가 한정적이며, 정교한 과학 장치를 갖춘 전문 실험실을 필요로 한다. 반면에 TOC는 짧은 시간 내에 측정이 가능하고, 안정적인 산화로 유기물질 총량을 정확하게 측정이 가능하다. 또한 위해성 물질을 발생시키지 않는 친환경적 방법이라 환경오염 감시에 많이 활용된다. 본 연구에서 분광측정기 중 하나인 S-CAN을 통해 하천의 TOC분석을 진행하였다. 대상지는 안동에 위치한 하천실험센터와 금호강 진천천으로 S-CAN측정과 채취한 시료의 수분석 결과를 비교하였다. 이를 통해 TOC측정 및 기기에 대한 정확도분석을 실시하였다. 본 연구를 통해 S-CAN을 활용한 TOC중심의 수질모니터링하여 수질의 특성을 탐구하고, TOC기초연구를 통한 유기물오염도 지표로서 해석할 수 있다. 수분석 자료를 활용한 정확도 비교를 통해 하천 TOC센서 측정 적용에 대한 기초자료 제공과 측정기기의 현장적용성을 판단 할 수 있다. TOC측정 및 분석을 통해 유기물질량을 실시간으로 정확하게 측정하게 되면 수질관리 효율성이 높아지고, 하천에 유입되는 유기물질량과 농도를 정확하게 파악하여 실효성 있는 정책 수립 및 효율적인 수질관리를 할 수 있다.

대기오염물질 배출은 다른 오염물질과는 다르게 일단 배출하고 나면 대기 중으로 빠르게 확산되어 단속이 어렵다. 또한 현장 적발하였다하더라도 시료채취가 어려워 적극적인 대기 오염행위 적발, 단속을 위한 지도 점검 및 관련법 개선이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 대기오염방지를 위해 배출되는 대기오염물질을 측정하고 오염도를 신속히 파악하여 대기오염을 사전에 방지하는 측정방법에 대하여 연구한다. 이를 위하여 휴대가 간편한 스마트폰으로 사진을 찍고 DOM 방법으로 혼탁도를 계산하는 안드로이드 네이티브앱을 설계하고 구현한다.

Near infrared reflectance(NIR) spectroscopy was used to determine the degree of retrogradation of cooked rice. Cooked rice samples were stored at $4^{\circ}C$ for 120 hours, and the degree of retrogradation was measured at every 6 hour during the storage time. Stored cooked rices were freeze-dried, milled and passed through a 100 mesh sieve. Enzymatic method using glucoamylase was used as reference method for the determination of the degree of retrogradation. Spectral differences due to retrogradation of cooked rice were observed at 1434, 1700, 1928, 2100, 2284 and 2320 nm. 32 samples of which moisture content were below 5% were used for calibration set, and 16 samples were used for validation set. High correlations were achieved between degree of retrogradation determined by conventional enzymatic method and by NIR with multiple correlation coefficient of 0.9753, and a standard error of calibration(SEC) of 3.64%. Comparable results were obtained with 3.91% of standard error of prediction(SEP), when the calibration equation was applied to independent group of samples of which moisture contents were in the range of calibration set. But when the calibration equation was applied to samples of which moisture contents were outer range of calibration set, SEP and bias were increased and correlation coefficient was decreased. The determination of degree of retrogradation was affected by sample moisture content. To determine degree of retrogradation of cooked rice by NIR using this calibration equation, it was suggested that sample moisture content should be controlled to below 5%.

This study was performed to identify the proper analytical conditions of endotoxins regarding optical density in the workplace where metalworking fluids are used. This study found that "onset time method" was more accurate than "time to $V_{max}$ method". Reproducibility and accuracy analyzed by "onset time method" was greatly higher than the "time to $V_{max}$". The optical density of "0.03" was the most appropriate analytical condition among "onset time method". In this analytical condition, linearity of 0.998 was obtained and recovery rate ranged from 88% to 105% at the endotoxin concentrations below 5 EU/mL. No significant difference of endotoxins was observed between the optical densities of "0.03" and "0.05". However, correlation coefficients were different with statistical significance (p<0.01). This study confirmed that either the optical densities "0.03" or "0.05" should be used to analyze endotoxin. Of these optical density values, OD with correlation coefficient higher than 0.98 should be used to analyze endotoxin in environmental samples.

In this study, a subjective weighting factors were awarded based on some indication of the difficulty of assessing the preconsolidation stress using traditional methods (Casagrande, Onitsuka et al., Silva, Becker et al., Janbu and Karlsrud methods) such as those proposed by Casagrande and Janbu using undisturbed sample obtained from Gwangyang dredged clay with high plasticity located in the southern area of Korean peninsular. These numbers only assess the relative ease of finding preconsolidation stress and say nothing regarding the accuracy of the value. The data were compared with measurements of undrained shear strength using strength incremental ratio, checking where or not the values are in the range of 0.25 to 0.35 (typical values of Korean marine clay) and analyzing standard deviation(degree of variability). The measurements of undrained shear strength were obtained from unconfined compression tests (UCT). When determining preconsolidation stress of Korean marine clay, at first, the work method proposed by Becker et al. and the bilogarithmic method proposed by Onitsuka et al. should be used. In addition, preconsolidation pressure should be estimated using the traditional Casagrande method as a basic of comparison.

In this study, a revised oil leakage evaluation method for assessing oil leakage stability of asphalt mastics used in upper slabs of below-grade residential parking lots was developed and presented. In order to verify the reliability and reproducibility of leakage results, the parameters the revised evaluation was carried out for three products with actual leakage history, and it was confirmed the leaks could be reproduced whereas the existing methods could not. To quantitatively verify the reproducibility, the filler content of the leaked samples was derived and the maximum filler content was 64% lower than that of the normal sample. The same results was found with the samples from the actual leakage site, thus verifying the reliability of the revised evaluation method.

The objective of the study survey was to determine the effect of marine sand extraction on community composition and rate of recolonization of the meiobenthos following cessation of mining activities. Because of meiobenthic distribution in nature, high abundance, intimate association with sediments, fast reproduction, benthic larva period, sensitivity to pollution and rapid life histories, meiobenthos are widely regarded as ideal organisms to study the potential ecological indicator of natural and anthropogenic stresses. The community structure of meiobenthos was studied at seven stations within sandy tidal and sub tidal zones in Jangbongdo in the Yellow Sea, Korea from Aug. 2006 to Dec. 2007. Meiobenthic samples were collected by three core samples, with a 3.6 cm in diameter, from each sediment sample taken with a Smith-McIntyre Grab. It was found that sand mining often causes complete removal of the sediment and the damage to the habitats of meiobenthos. This study in the effect showed that sand mining resulted in a reduction in total abundance and biomass of meiobenthos in mining area. The finding of this study further showed that initial restoration of abundance and biomass within one year of the cessation of sand mining.
