In recent, lots of researches for mechanical-empirical design concept for asphalt pavement are on going. AASHTO 2002 Design Guide in USA and KPRP(Korean Pavement Research Program) in Korea are under developing. In these programs, the mechanical properties of hot mix asphalt are a key role for design and analysis. Unfortunately, there is no proper database on the mechanical properties of hot mix asphalt, such as dynamic modulus. The use of dynamic modulus has couple of good advantages which is based on temperature, traffic loading and frequency on pavement. In this research, the verification of the relationship between maximum nominal aggregate size and dynamic modulus has been carried out. Also, test specimen size effect on dynamic modulus has been conducted. Considering the limitation of laboratory testing machine in Korea, test specimen with 100mm diameter and 150mm height is recommended for dynamic modulus test. Also, as the maximum nominal aggregate size increases, the dynamic modulus of hot mix asphalt increases.

In this study, safety analysis of river in flash flood due to local extraordinary rainfall was conducted for the Hong-Je river, which was selected as a representative sample basin because it is one of the most urbanized rivers in Seoul. The rainfall data of precipitation 310.1 mm and probable maximum precipitation (PMP) 740.0 mm in July $14{\sim}15$, 2001 was used to perform safety analysis. Resulting of safety analysis of the flood control in Hong-Je river, case of the 50 year of design frequency, safety section, management section, and danger section were represented to be 85%, 15%, and 0% respectively. For the 200 year of design frequency, safety section decreased by 6% and management section and danger section increment by 4% and 2%, respectively, The variation of management section was not observed with respect to 200 year of frequency. Little variation of safety value for management section for 300 and 500 of frequency increased by 8% and 12% relative to 50 year of frequency, respectively. management section and danger section for 1000 year of frequency increased by 19% and 13% relative to 50 year of frequency.

최근 기상이변, 불투수층의 증가와 배수체계개선 등의 요인으로 인한 홍수량의 증대로 하도방어 위주의 현재 홍수방어체제는 지속적인 치수사업의 시행에도 불구하고 오히려 하류에서의 홍수가 격심해지는 등 상당한 어려움에 직면하고 있다. 따라서 최근의 유역종합치수계획에서는 천변저류지 등에 의한 면적 개념의 2차원적 홍수량 분담을 통한 피해의 잠재성을 경감시키고자 하는 방안들이 제시되고 있다. 이러한 기술적 수요의 증가에 따라 낙동강유역종합치수계획, 삽교천유역종 합치수계획 등에서는 중규모 이상의 천변저류지가 검토되었지만 이러한 예는 대하천유역이므로 홍수피해가 빈발하는 농촌지역의 중소규모 하천에서는 계획된 적이 없다. 지금까지 지속적인 하천개수사업으로 2004년말 현재 하천연장 기준으로 전국의 하천 개수율은 78%에 이르고 있다. 이 중 국가하천과 지방1급하천은 약 15%로서 개수율이 약 90%이상으로 높고, 지방2급하천은 약 85%를 차지하나 대부분은 농촌지역에 위치하여 약 70% 미만의 낮은 개수율을 나타내고 있으므로 향후 중소규모유역의 지방2급하천에서 하천개수가 지속적으로 추진될 것이다. 현재 하천정비기본계획이 미수립된 하천구간에 대하여 하도계획시 제방축제에 의한 경제성이 미미한 일부 구간에 무제부의 소규모 아지늪을 조성하고, 홍수파의 전파속도를 저감하여 하류의 홍수집중을 경감시키고 유수 에너지를 감소시키며 아울러 본천의 유수환경과는 다른 습지로서의 정수환경을 창출하여 하천생태계의 다양성을 확보하는 방안도 있을 것이다. 본 연구에서는 경남 하동군에 위치하는 지방2급하천인 주교천에 약 $4000m^2$의 소형 습지(아지늪)를 2004년 3월에 조성하고 2006년 11월에 습지의 어류 및 수생식물에 대한 모니터링을 실시하여 아지늪의 하천생태의 다양성의 달성도를 평가하였다. 또한 주교천에서 홍수량의 증가에 따른 홍수류의 유속 변동과 그에 따른 에너지의 변화를 고찰하기 위하여 HEC-RAS를 적용하고 주교천 아지늪 주변의 수리학적 거동을 고찰하였다.

For the human body shape information, body measurement techniques using a tape measure or image analysis are used. However, there is a demand for a method with high measurement accuracy and reproducibility while being simple. In this paper, domestic and foreign patent research related to body size measurement technology was conducted to identify the development trend of the related technology. WISDOMAIN DB was used to search for patents published in Korea, the United States, Japan, and Europe, and valid patents were derived by defining the technical scope of major and medium classifications and sub-categories. For the derived patents, patent trends by year, major applicants by country, and the status of technological fields were analyzed. In the field of body size measurement technology, the proportion of patent applications filed in Korea is high, indicating that Korea is leading the patent application in this field. Although the number of patent applications in the field of sensor-type measurement technology was not large, it has an advantage in measurement simplicity, so the development of related technology is expected to contribute to the improvement of measurement accuracy related to body composition analysis.

In this study, we presented a novel size optimization framework to control the linear buckling temperature and several buckling modes of plates, by optimizing thickness values of composite structures for practical engineering applications. Predicting the buckling temperature and mode shape of structures is a vital research topic in engineering to achieve structural stability. However, optimizing designs of engineering structures through engineering intuition is challenging. To address this limitation, we proposed a method that combines finite element simulation and size optimization. Based on the idea that the structural buckling temperature and mode shape of a plate are affected by the thickness of the structure, the thickness values of the nodes of the target structure were set as the design variables in this optimization method; and the buckling temperature values, and buckling mode shapes were set as the objective functions. This size optimization method enabled the determination of optimal thickness distributions, to induce the desired buckling temperature values and mode shapes. The validity of the proposed method was verified in terms of their buckling temperature values and buckling mode shapes, using several numerical examples of rectangular composite structures.

The riverine wetlands located in the riverside bring about social conflicts through confrontation between flood control value through flood control project and ecological preservation value of riverine wetland. In this study, we identified the importance of both values through analysis of economic feasibility of flood control and ecological values of riverine wetland, and tried to suggest management plans for riverine wetland considering both of flood control safety and ecological preservation through these results. For this, we calculated the expected annual flood damage of Imjin River using the multi-dimensional flood damage analysis(MD-FDA), and calculated the total value of riverine wetland using the contingent valuation method(CVM) to estimate preservation value of riverine wetland. The result of the analysis shows that the Imjin River needs flood control project and the ecological preservation of riverine wetland is also important. Therefore, the establishment of the management plan for protecting riverine wetland is also needed. As a result, the Imjin riverine wetland was classified as the area where sedimentation continues to take place, and the flood water level to rise. On the basis of the analyzed results, it is judged that the Imjin River needs flood control for public safety and ecological consideration for ecosystem preservation in the river improvement project. So, the stepwise river improvement is desirable to protect riverine wetland and minimize ecosystem disturbance. The results is expected to be made good use as the basic study for establishment of institutional river management plans considering flood control project and riverine wetland preservation in the future.

Pulp canal obliteration(PCO) is seen commonly in dental pulp after traumatic tooth injuries and is recognized clinically as early as 3 monthly after injury. Pulp canal obliteration is characterized by deposition of hard tissue within the root canal space and yellow discoloration of the clinical crown. Opinion differs among practitioners as to whether to treat these cases upon early detection of PCO or to observe them until symptoms or radiographic signs of pulpal necrosis are detected. PCO may make root canal treatment necessary because of the development of apical periodotitis or for cosmetic reasons. If carefully executed, root canal treatment in teeth with an PCO is hightly successful and may act as a basis for internal bleaching. During a game, a 12-year-old girl was hit in the face. At that time, she was diagnosis a subluxation of the maxillary right central incisor. At the 24-month recall examination, a root canal of the tooth had been calcified and discolored gradually. We performed endodontic treatment to prevent perfect pulp canal obliteration and internal bleaching.

It is doubtless that product aesthetics and design are very important keys determining the success and failure in today's market environment in spite of the lack of academic model and positive research results. However, surprisingly the research of such an aesthetic has not been active. Therefore the conceptual frame of product aesthetics should be examined centering around the research of product aesthetes in other to understand consumers'aesthetic requirement and desire in the research of aesthetics of product design and the design process by analyzing that how product aesthetics anon the consumers'response and product selection, what roles the aesthetic factor of product design play in product design and what aesthetic dimension of product design is related to design product should be established.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the actual size of tables and chairs in small restaurants. The examined objets were 48 restaurants serving flour-based, korean style and japanese style meals. Those restaurants are currently being operated at six universities in Seoul, and their sizes are limited under $66m^2$. The results of this study were as follows ; 1 . In small restaurants, the size of the seat for one person is $0.346m^2$on the average. The range of the size starts from $0.285m^2$to $0.403m^2$, showing a great difference. 2. The most common size of tables in small restaurants is the oblong style of $600{\times}900$ for four people. The smallest size is $440{\times}710$, while the biggest one is $700{\times}1000$, showing a great number of variation. If the most common size of tables is set to be the general size of tables in small restaurants, it will be $600{\times}900$. 3. The sizes of the seats for chairs used in small restaurants start from $270{\times}270$ to $430{\times}430$. The most common size of the seats for chairs is $400{\times}400$, only showing a small number. For the cases of tables with the most common size of $600{\times}900$, the width of the seats for chairs should be under 400. 4. For the height between the table and the seats of the chair, the distance from 270 to 300 is relevant. However, according to the results of the investigation, it seems that there are more cases of the distance from 250 to 260 than that from 270 to 300.
