여름철 강우시 저수지로 유입하는 고탁도의 하천수는 저수지 주변 수체에 비해 낮은 수온과 높은 부유물질 농도(SS)로 인해 상대적으로 높은 밀도를 가지며, 저수지 내에서 동일 밀도층을 따라 분포하며 밀도류를 형성하게 된다. 탁수는 대부분 장기간 저수지에 체류하며 수질과 수생태계에 큰 영향을 주게 된다. 따라서 저수지로 유입한 탁수의 밀도류 거동특성을 파악하는 것은 저수지 운영, 수질관리 및 수생태계 보호를 위한 관리대책 수립에 있어서 중요한 요소이다. 본 연구의 목적은 횡방향 평균 2차원 수치모델을 이용하여 초기수위별 다양한 유량규모에서 소양호로 유입하는 밀도류의 거동특성(유입경계지점 수심($h_0$), 침강점 수심($d_p$)과 거리($X_p$), 분리점 수심($d_s$), 중층류 관입두께($h_i$), 댐 축 도달시간($t_a$), 희석율(${\beta}$))을 분석하여 저수지 수질관리를 위한 의사결정지원 기초정보를 제공하는데 있다. 밀도류의 거동분석을 위해 사용된 유량조건은 그동안 소양호에서 발생한 홍수크기를 바탕으로 7개의 등급으로 나누었으며, 각각의 유량조건별 수문곡선은 2007년 수문사상 중 7월 30일부터 8월 30일까지의 수문사상을 바탕으로 수정가우시안 공식을 사용하여 산정하였다. 탁수 거동 특성의 모의는 서로 다른 초기 수위 및 유량조건하에서의 탁수거동을 나타냈고, SS농도 25 mg/L 이상을 기준으로 하여 탁수층의 $d_p$, $X_p$, $d_s$, $h_i$, $t_a$, ${\beta}$를 산정하였다. 일반적으로 유량규모가 커질수록 $d_p$와 $d_s$는 증가하였고, $X_p$는 댐 축으로부터 가까워짐이 확인되었으나, 동일 유량규모에 대해 초기 수위가 증가함에 따라 $X_p$는 대체로 댐으로부터 멀어졌다. $h_i$는 유량규모가 증가함에 따라 완만하게 증가하는 경향을 보였고, $t_a$는 초기수위가 EL. 165 m일 때 유량이 2,000 CMS 미만인 경우 댐 앞까지 도달하지 못하는 것으로 나타났으며, 나머지 수위조건에서는 유량이 3,000 CMS 미만인 경우 댐 앞까지 도달하지 못하는 것으로 나타났다. 유량 규모에 따라 $X_p$가 0 km인 지점과 19 km인 지점에서의 ${\beta}$ 값을 산정한 결과 일반적으로 유량규모가 커질수록 유입수의 희석효과는 작아지며 초기수위가 커질수록 증가하는 경향을 나타냈다. 연구 결과는 탁수 발생 초기 저수지 운영 실무자들이 유량규모 및 초기 수위조건에 따른 밀도류의 거동특성을 신속히 예측하는 목적으로 사용될 수 있다.

Purpose: Compared to soft tissue sarcoma, the relative risk of extraskeletal osteosarcoma is still not clear. The purpose of this study is to identify the difference in survival and local recurrence rate between two soft tissue sarcomas. Materials and Methods: Twelve patients with pathologically confirmed extraskeletal osteosarcoma were analysed. For retrospective matched case-control study, we selected 72 patients who were confirmed as high grade soft tissue sarcoma and had similar tumor location, tumor size and age to extraskeletal osteosarcoma. Results: Median age was 50 years old. Five cases were located in upper extremity, four in the buttocks, three in the lower extremity. Overall survival rate of extraskeletal osteosarcoma group and high grade soft tissue sarcoma group at 5 years were 52% and 55%. There is no significant difference (p=0.8). Local recurrence rate and metastasis rate were 58%, 67% in extraskeletal osteosarcoma group and 36%, 51% in soft tissue sarcoma group, which were not stastistically significant(p=0.2, p=0.4). Conclusion: Extraskeletal osteosarcoma have similar local recurrence, metastasis and survival rate compare to high grade soft tissue sarcoma. The number of patients of this study were too small to identify outcome of extraskeletal osteosarcoma. Further multi-institutional study should be attempted.

This paper reports a Surge Protective Device (SPD) that is used to protect an automatic metering interface (AMI) power supplies of communication equipment on a low-voltage distribution system from a lightning current. The surge protective device (SPD) can be classified as one-port SPDs and two-port SPDs with decoupling elements depending on the connection type. The protection of internal systems against the lightning current may require a systematic approach consisting of coordinated SPDs. To deal with this, the definition of a lightning protection zone (LPZ) was studied and interpreted through a theoretical review. Because the lightning current resulting from a lightning surge is considerably high, there is limited protection from one SPD; therefore, coordinated cascaded MOV-based SPDs are installed to solve this problem. Regarding the power grid mentioned in this paper, a class II SPD for the low-voltage distribution system installed on the border of LPZ1 and LPZ2, which establish a protection coordination with the Arrester (LA, SA) that corresponds to the LPZO installed on the MOF stage connected to one system were designed to protect various communication (control) equipment, including the automatic meter reading system inside the branch-type electric supply panel of a building, not the incoming side of one system. In addition, performance-related tests were done by a comparison with the existing method through testing, and the optimal design was achieved for the 1-port SPD that uses a series connection and can bleed load current without any decoupling element.

Recently, the pavement distresses in the bridge deck have seriously affected the durability of bridge deck and driver's safety. The existing asphalt materials have the limitations in reducing the pavement distresses of brides deck. To protect the bridge deck and withstand the high deflection, it is necessary to develop the asphalt materials with good fatigue resistance for bridge deck pavement. The asphalt binder combined with SBS and two other admixtures has been developed for improving the resistance to fatigue cracking, productivity, and workability for bridge deck pavement. Based on the various binder test results, the developed binder is found to be PG 70-34 indicating very higher resistance against fatigue cracking. Fatigue testing, wheel tracking testing, and moisture susceptibility testing have been conducted to evaluate the performance of asphalt mixtures developed in this study. Laboratory test results show that the developed asphalt material has three times higher fatigue lives than the typical modified asphalt mixture. Full scale accelerated testing was also performed on the typical asphalt mixture and newly developed asphalt mixture to evaluate the full scale performance of asphalt mixtures. Test results indicate that the length of cracking on the new materials is only 38% of the typical material at the 250,000 load repetitions.

Between Oct. 1985 and July 1995, 230 patients underwent mitral valve replacement. There were 77 men and 153 women whose mean age was 35.7 years, range 9 to 62 The concomitant operations were 40 aortic valve replacements(17.4%), 25 tricuspid annuloplasties(10.4%), 8 aortic valve replacements & tricuspid annuloplasties(3.5%), 2 tricuspid valve replacements(0.9%) and others, We used 139 mechanical (76 51. Jude medical, 33 CarboMedics, 30 Sorin) and 91 tissue 386 Carpentier-Edwards, 5 lonescu-Shiley) valves. The early postoperative complications occurred in 28 cases. There were 8 low cardiac output syndrome, 5 pleural effusion, 3 significant arrhythmia, 2 cardiac rupture and others. There were 6 early hospital deaths (2.6%) due to low cardiac output syndrome(2), arrhythmia(2) and ventricul r rupture(2). The cuAmulative notal follow-up period was 764. 4 patient-years with a mean of 4).9 months. The long term follow-up information was available for 212 patients(94.6%). There were 21 cases of valve-related complications. Prosthetic valve failure(10), anti-coagulation related bleeding (5), prosthetic valve endocarditis (4), and thromboembolism (2) occurred at rates of 1.3, 0.7, 0.5, and 0.3%Ipt-yr respectively. Late death occurred In 5 cases (0.7%/pt-yr) associated with prosthetic valve endocarditis (2), heart failure (2) and anti-coagulation related bleeding (1). There was no difference in the rate of freedom from prosthetic valve failure between the mechanical and tissue valve group at 6 years (100%), but there was significant difference at 9 years between the tissue (34.4%) and mechanical valve (100%) group (p=0.032). Actuarial survival rates were 98. 8% in tissue valve. 9).7% in mechanical valve group and 96.6% in total patients at 9 years.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the lateral earth pressure and the stability of small scale retaining wall with waste foundry sand(WFS) mixtures as a controlled low strength materials (CLSM). Three different types of WFS, like Green WFS, Hurane WFS and Coated WFS, were used in this study, and fly ash of Class F type was adopted. To evaluate the lateral earth pressure and the stability of retaining wall, two different samll scale retaining wall tests, which are called an artificially controlled strain method and a natural strain method, were carried out. In case of an artificially controlled strain method, the coefficient of lateral earth pressure, just after backfilling of WF mixtures, was around 0.8 to 1.0, and most of earth pressure was dissipated within 12 hours. In case of a natural strain method, two steps of stage constructions were employed. The mixtures of Hurane WFS and Coated WFS showed fast decrease of earth pressure due to a relatively good drainage. Judging from the sta bility of retaining wall for overturning and sliding, two steps of stage construction for 2 days were enough to finish the backfill of 6-m height of retaining wall. Also, considering the curling effect of WFS mixtures, the stability of retaining wall increased as curling time increased.

This study was carried out to establish seed propagation method of Hydrangea petiolaris Siebold & Zucc., one of the specific and protected plant species for the floral region. Seed size ranged $1.36{\times}0.84mm$, weight of thousand seeds was $2.3{\pm}0.02mg$. Observation of seed morphology characters showed wrinkled surface and elliptical shape, indicating amber color and fine seeds. Moisture contents of seeds, increased rapidly by water-soaking treatment, recording maximum moisture contents (31.9%) after 48 hours. Percent germination of seeds was higher under the light than dark condition. Seed germination was the best at $25^{\circ}C$ under the light condition (78.0%) among temperature and light conditions treated. Percent germination, germination energy and $T_{50}$ was greatly improved by soaking in $GA_3$ solutions for 48 hours. Especially, $100{\sim}500mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ $GA_3$ treatment resulted in the highest germination rate as 90.0% and above.

When utilizing a Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM) for tunnelling work, unexpected ground conditions can be encountered that are not predicted in the design stage. These include fractured zones or mixed ground conditions that are likely to reduce the stability of TBM excavation, and result in considerable economic losses such as construction delays or increases in costs. Minimizing these potential risks during tunnel construction is therefore a crucial issue in any mechanized tunneling project. This paper proposed the potential risk events that may occur due to risky ground conditions. A resistivity survey is utilized to predict the risky ground conditions ahead of the tunnel face during construction. The potential risk events are then evaluated based on their occurrence probability and impact. A TBM risk management system that can suggest proper solution methods (measures) for potential risk events is also developed. Multi-Criterion Decision Making (MCDM) is utilized to determine the optimal solution method (optimal measure) to handle risk events. Lastly, an actual construction site, at which there was a risk event during Earth Pressure-Balance (EPB) Shield TBM construction, is analyzed to verify the efficacy of the proposed system.

This paper concerns the structural behavior of high-strength concrete beams with compressive strength of 80 MPa subjected to flexure. Main test variables were nominal yielding strength of longitudinal rebar including normal strength rebar(SD 400) and high strength rebar(SD 600), reinforcement ratio from 0.98 to 1.58% and beam section size with $200{\times}250$, $200{\times}300mm$. The nine beams were cast and tested under flexure. The study investigated ultimate flexural strength, load-deflection relationship, crack patterns, failure patterns and ductility of the test beams. Test results indicate that when rebar ratio increased flexural strength increased and ductility decreased. In addition, the number of cracks increased and the crack width decreased as the reinforcement ratio increased. The yield strength of rebar did not affect significantly load-crack width relationship. Nonlinear analysis of test beams was performed and then test results and analytical results of ultimate load were compared. Analytical results of high-strength concrete beams overall underestimated flexural strength of test beams.

An experimental study of the accelerated weathering was performed to investigate the variations of physicomechanical properties of deteriorated rocks due to freeze-thaw weathering for the Jurassic granite specimens from Wonju, Gangwon-do. Each complete cycle of freeze and thaw was lasted 24 hours, comprising 2 hours saturating in vacuum chamber, 8 hours freezing at -20$\pm1^{\circ}C$ and 14 hours thawing at room temperature. Freeze-thaw cycles were implemented with measuring the index physical properties as well as geometries of microfractures. The seismic velocity was found to decrease with increasing freeze-thaw cycles. On the other hand, absorption tends to increase with freeze-thaw cycles. In the end, it was concluded that variations of the index properties of deteriorated specimen depend on its initial properties and flaws in rock. The size and density of the traces of the microfracture on slab specimen were changed continuously with increasing freeze-thaw weathering. The results obtained in this study show that the box fractal dimension($D_B$) has the strong capability of quantifying the combined effect of size and density of the microfractures.
