This study aims to investigating the effect of Schmidt number (${\sigma}_c$) on sediment suspension and hydrodynamics calculation. The range of ${\sigma}_c$ is also studied based on the flux Richardson number ($Ri_f$) and gradient Richardson number ($Ri_g$). Numerical experiments are carried out by 1 dimensional vertical model. Both cohesive and non-cohesive sediments are tested under the conditions of pure current and oscillatory flow. The turbulence damping effect due to sediment suspension is examined considering ${\sigma}_c$ as a constant for the damping effect. The results of this study show the consistent effect of ${\sigma}_c$ on sediment suspension regardless of hydrodynamic condition. It is also found that the model overestimates the flow velocity and turbulent kinetic energy when the damping effect is not considered. Under the conditions of $Ri_f$ and $Ri_g$ causing density stratification, it is known that the vertical mixing of sediment is reasonably calculated in the range of ${\sigma}_c$ from 0.3 to 0.5.

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of electric conductivity (EC) and potassium (K) concentration level in the culture solution on the growth and the air pollution monitoring capability of Perilla frutescens Suwon 16 which was recognized as a possible bioindicator for air pollution. The plants were exposed to $NO_2$, $O_3$, $SO_2$ and $NO_2+SO_2$ within a phytotron at $25^{\circ}C$ (day) or at $20^{\circ}C$(night) with 70% of relative humidity and evaluated the effect of EC and K level on the injury of the plants, The highest dry weights were gained as 16.3 g/plant at 0.5 dS/m of EC and as 32.3 g/plant at 100 and 200mg/l of K concentration, respectively. The diffusive resistances appeared as low values at 0.5 dS/m of EC and at 50, 100mg/l of K concentration. The increasing of the visible injury with increasing the dose of air pollutants could be taken at 0.5. 1.0 ds/m of EC and at 50, 100mg/l of K. The recommendable level of EC and K of the culture solution were 0.5-1.0 dS/m of electric conductivity. 50-100mg/l of K for the plant as an air pollutant biomonitor, when the 7th or 8th leaf was developed.

For the olefin recovery from polyolefin off-gas, the permeation behaviors of olefins and nitrogen were investigated through three kinds of PDMS membranes - cross-linked PDMS membranes, a polysiloxaneimide membrane, and oligo-PDMS modified PDMS membranes. Their pure gas permeabilities were measured as a function of operation temperature(-20 to $50^{\circ}C$) and pressure(1 to 25 atm) with ethylene($C_2\;H_4$), propylene($C_3\;H_6$), butylene($C_4\;H_8$), and nitrogen($N_2$) gases. The permeabilities of olefins and nitrogen highly depended upon the nature of PDMS membranes. Among these membranes, cross-linked PDMS membranes showed stable and high olefin/nitrogen selectivities over a wide operation pressure range and further study in various test conditions. Their permeability of olefin and nitrogen were governed by the condensation temperature(solubility selectivity) and plasticization, not the order of the size(diffusivity selectivity) of gases, which matched well with the general permeation behavior of rubbery polymeric membranes for condensable and non-condensable gases. With increasing feed pressure or decreasing feed temperature, the permeabilities of more condensible olefins increase highly, presumably due to high solubility and plasticization, but that of non-condensible nitrogen decreases slightly and thus, the selectivities of olefin/nitrogen increase highly.

In order to study the mineralogical characteristics of a cathodic deposition-metallic powder, electrowinning experiments were carrier out on different electrolytic solutions at varying electric distances and electric currents. Under the same experimental conditions, Cu recovery was obtained much more effectively using a sodium chloride electrolyte than with a sulfuric acid electrolyte. In XRD analysis, copper ($Cu^0$), chalcanthite and cuprite were identified in the sulfuric acid electrolyte, while copper, nantokite and chalcanthite were observed in the sodium chloride electrolyte. In the sodium chloride electrolyte solution, increasing the electric distance and the electric current increased the Cu recovery rate, anode weight and anodic corrosion. The results of XRD analysis with non-pulverized cathodic deposition-metallic powder showed the average copper crystallite size was increased by increasing the electric current and decreasing the electric distance. It is suggested that the mass transfer was controlled with diffusion on the boundary between the electrode and the electrolytic solution due to the formation of dendrite copper.

To investigate the influence of the Hf concentration and the annealing effect in $Co_{1-x}Hf_x$(X=0.16, 0.24 at.%) systems, ferromagnetic resonance experiments have been carried out. Spin wave resonance spectra for all samples consist of several volume modes and one (or two) surface mode. It is suggested that both surfaces of the film have a perpendicular hard axis to the film plane (negative surface anisotropy). The surface anisotropy $K_{s2}$ at substrate-film interface is varied slowly from -0.07 to -0.32 erg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and the surface anisotropy $K_{s1}$ at film-air interface is varied from 0.18 to -0.47 erg/ $\textrm{cm}^2$ with increasing annealing temperature in the amorphous $Co_{84}Hf_{16}$ thin films. Also, the surface anisotropy $K_{s2}$ is varied slowly from -0.31 to -0.41 erg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and the surface anisotropy $K_{s1}$is varied from -0.19 to -0.60 erg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ with increasing annealing temperature in the amporphous $Co_{84}Hf_{16}$ thin films. We conjecture that the variation of surface anisotropy $K_{s1}$ is due to the increase of Co concentration resulted from Hf oxidation for low temperature annealing(150~175 $^{\circ}C$) and the diffusion of Co atoms near the film surfaces for high temperature annealing (200~225 $^{\circ}C$).

In this paper, a series of centrifuge tests were performed to evaluate the seepage characteristic of reinforced embankment. The centrifuge models simulated an actual embankment reinforced by enlargement of levee cross-section. The centrifuge models have the same conditions except the locations of enlargement with low permeable material : water-side and land-side. In addition, the prototype embankment is constructed on low permeable clay layer. In the case of water-side reinforcement, the reinforced zone makes water head down and the saturated zone of embankment propagates slowly. In the case of land-side reinforcement embankment, the saturated zone enlarged relatively faster but the amount of exit water at land-side toe was very small because of the land-side reinforcement zone. The low permeable clay foundation layer was being continuously saturated by the inflow from the embankment as well as the uplift flow from the permeable layer induced by the excess pore water pressure.

Use of geothermal energy has been increased for its economical application and environmentally friendly utilization. Particularly, for energy piles, a spiral coil type ground heat exchanger (GHE) is more preferred than line type GHEs such as U and W shaped GHEs. A PHC energy pile with spiral coil type GHE was installed in an area of partially saturated dredged soil deposit, and a thermal response test (TRT) was conducted for 240 hours under a continuous operation condition. Besides, remolded soil samples from different layers were collected in the field, and soil specimens were reconstructed according to the field ground condition. Non-steady state probe methods were conducted in the lab, and ground thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity were measured for the different soil layers. An equivalent ground thermal conductivity was calculated from the lab test results and it was compared with the field TRT result. The difference was less than 5%, which advocates the use of an equivalent ground thermal conductivity for the multi-layered ground. Furthermore, this paper also represents an equivalent ground thermal diffusivity evaluation method which is another very important design parameter.

The social statistic was used to top 250 Korean and Japanese YouTube channels based on the number of subscribers examine its channel type (private/corporations/others), distribution of contents and private YouTube channels' date of registration. The channel examination was also used to provide practical hint to create new Youtube contents. According to the statistics, Korean channels were mainly managed by K-Culture related companies for the promotional purpose, whereas Japanese channels were mainly managed by individuals with a variety of contents. It is presumed that Japanese individuals have been engaged in creating individual video content since the early period through video uploading platforms other than YouTube such as Niconico Douga. Since the expansion of the YouTube market will continue, it is important not only to reinforce corporations' marketing on YouTube but also to promote the uniqueness and the diversity of YouTube content for the individuals to improve the economical, sentimental, and informational contents in order to create socially effective personal contents that can be competitive in the global market.

UV-VIS spectrophotometric and high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC-DAD) methods were applied in order to identify and quantify the composition of polyphenols in commercial cocoa-containing products. Total polyphenolic contents of cocoa mix, choco-syrup, milk chocolate, and dark chocolate were evaluated using Folin-Ciocalteu's phenol reagent according to a UV-VIS spectrometric method. Antioxidant capacities of cocoa extracts by methanol were evaluated by 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethyl benzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) assay and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay. The obtained results show that the polyphenolic contents and antioxidant capacities of cocoa products and chocolates depend on solid cocoa content. Among the tested cocoa products and chocolates, the most abundant phenolic compound was epicatechin.

The transient mass transfer in a single droplet system consisting of 1-octanol (continuous phase)/aqueous succinic acid solution (dispersed phase) was investigated in the presence of chemical reaction, which is acid/anion exchange reaction of succinic acid and tri-n-octylamine (TOA). This succinic acid extraction by TOA can be considered to occur at the interface between organic and aqueous phase, that is, heterogeneous reaction system. The basic properties of the system such as viscosity, density, distribution coefficient, terminal velocity of droplet, and diffusion coefficient were measured experimentally or calculated theoretically, and used for theoretical calculation of characteristic parameters of mass transfer later. The effects of succinic acid concentration on the terminal velocity was negligible in the existence of TOA, although the terminal velocity increases with succinic acid concentration in the absence of TOA. On the contrary, the terminal velocity decreases with TOA concentration. While droplets falls through organic phase, the trajectory of droplets is observed to oscillate around its vertical path. A mass trnasfer cell was prepared to monitor the mass transfer behavior in a single droplet and used to measure the mean concentration of succinic acid inside droplet. The results are expressed with dimensionless parameters. Under 50 g/L succinic acid condition, the system with 0.1 mol/kg TOA showed that the molar flux decreases in proportion to the decrease of concentration gradient, while in the case of 0.5 mol/kg TOA Sh increases rapidly with time indicating the molar flux of succinic acid decreases relatively slowly compared to the decrease in concentration gradient.
