Strut-and-tie models for noncontact lap splices are presented and parameters affecting the effective lap length $(l_p)$ and the splice strength are discussed in this paper. The effective lap length along which bond stress is developed is shorter than the whole lap length. The effective lap length depends on the transverse reinforcement ratio $({\Phi})$ and the ratio of spacing to lap length $({\alpha})$. As the splice-bar spacing becomes wider, the effective lap length decreases and, therefore, the splice strength decreases. The influence of the ratio ${\alpha}$ on the effective lap length becomes more effective when the transverse reinforcement ratio is low. Because the slope of the strut developed between splice-bars becomes steeper as the ratio ${\Phi}$ becomes lower, the splice-bar spacing significantly affects the effective lap length. The proposed strut-and-tie models for noncontact lap splices are capable of considering material and geometric properties and, hence, providing the optimal design for detailing of reinforcements. The proposed strut-and-tie model can explain the experimental results including cracking patterns and the influence of transverse reinforcements on the splice strength reported in the literature. From the comparison with the test results of 25 specimens, the model can predict the splice strengths with 11.1% of coefficient of variation.

Given digraph network $D=(N,A),n{\in}N,a=c(u,v){\in}A$ with source s and sink t, the maximum flow from s to t is determined by cut (S, T) that splits N to $s{\in}S$ and $t{\in}T$ disjoint sets with minimum cut value. The Ford-Fulkerson (F-F) algorithm with time complexity $O(NA^2)$ has been well known to this problem. The F-F algorithm finds all possible augmenting paths from s to t with residual capacity arcs and determines bottleneck arc that has a minimum residual capacity among the paths. After completion of algorithm, you should be determine the minimum cut by combination of bottleneck arcs. This paper suggests maximum adjacency merging and compute cut value method is called by MA-merging algorithm. We start the initial value to S={s}, T={t}, Then we select the maximum capacity $_{max}c(u,v)$ in the graph and merge to adjacent set S or T. Finally, we compute cut value of S or T. This algorithm runs n-1 times. We experiment Ford-Fulkerson and MA-merging algorithm for various 8 digraph. As a results, MA-merging algorithm can be finds minimum cut during the n-1 running times with time complexity O(N).

Ulsan Port is the biggest base port for liquid cargoes in Korea and is pushing in earnest for the development of the 'Ulsan New Port' and 'Northeast Asia Oil-Hub' to prepare for continuous shipment growth. However, Ulsan is in the situation which the harbour limit and anchorages are narrower than other trading ports and the occurrence probability of marine accidents is very high due to heavy marine traffic. We will find and suggest the plan to enlarge the harbour limit essentially needed to expand anchorages considering the geomorphological features of Ulsan and the volume of marine traffic in this research. For the enlargement of harbour limit needed to expand anchorages, the anchorage area needed for Ulsan New Port was calculated after the quantitative analysis of enlargement range through the mutual comparison of the area of harbour limit and anchorages with berths and the volume of marine traffic. The reasonable type of harbour limit, which is based on the survey by a group of experts, was also determined after the decision of the range of harbour limit to accommodate the relevant anchorages.

The distributed rainfall-runoff model which is developed in the country requires a lot of time and effort to generate input data. Also, it takes a lot of time to calculate discharge by numerical analysis based on kinematic wave theory in runoff process. Therefore, most river basins using the distributed model are of limited scale, such as small river basins. However, recently, the necessity of integrated watershed management has been increasing due to change of watershed management concept and discharge calculation of whole river basin, including upstream and downstream of dam. Thus, in this study, the feasibility of the GIS based physical distributed rainfall-runoff model, K-DRUM(K-water hydrologic & hydraulic Distributed RUnoff Model) which has been developed by own technology was reviewed in the flood discharge process for the Geum River basin, including Yongdam and Daecheong Dam Watersheds. GIS hydrological parameters were extracted from basic GIS data such as DEM, land cover and soil map, and used as input data of the model. Problems in running time and inaccuracy setting using the existing trial and error method were solved by applying an auto calibration method in setting initial soil moisture conditions. The accuracy of discharge analysis for application of the method was evaluated using VER, QER and Total Error in case of the typhoon 'Ewiniar' event. and the calculation results shows a good agreement with observed data.

This study analyzes traffic data which are collected by VDS(Vehicle Detection System) to research the relationship between spacing distribution and vehicles' relative speed. The collected data are relative speed between preceding and following vehicles, passing time and speed. They are also classified by lane and direction. For the result of the analysis, in the same platoon, we figure out that mean of spacing is 40m, which can be a value to determine section A to D. To compare spacing according to time interval, this study splits time intervals to peak hour and non-peak hour by peak hour traffic volume. In conclusion, vehicles in peak hour are in car following because most drive similar speed as preceding vehicle and they have relatively small spacing. On the other hand, non-peak hour's spacing between vehicles is bigger than that of peak hour. This implies driver's behaviors that the less spacing, the more aggressive and want to reduce their travel time in peak hour, whereas most drive easily in non-peak hour and recreational trip purpose because of less time pressure.

금강은 우리나라 중부 내륙에서 서해로 흐르는 유로연장 401km, 유역면적이 전 국토면적의 약 10%에 해당하는 $9,886km^2$에 이르는 남한의 5대강 중 하나이다. 1981년, 이 강의 하구로부터 150km 상류지점인 대전시 동북쪽 16km, 청주시 남쪽 16km의 대전시와 충청북도가 만나는 지점에 대청다목적댐이 준공되었다. 대청다목적댐은 높이 72m, 길이 495m, 체적 123만$4,000m^3$의 콘크리트 중력식 댐과 석괴식 댐으로 구성된 복합형 댐으로서, 이 댐의 주요시설로는 저수용량 14억9,000만$m^3$의 본 댐과 조정지 댐이 있다. 그 후 1992년에는 대청 조정지 댐 하류 200m 지점에 현도 지방 산업단지 취수장(시설용량: $17,600m^3$/일)이 건설되었으며, 통상 하루 약 7,500톤의 물을 인근의 공단에 공급해오고 있다. 하지만 최근, 취수량이 급격히 감소됨에 따라, 인근 공단으로의 물 공급에 많은 어려움이 발생하고 있다. 이에 대한 대처 방안으로서 한국수자원공사는 취수장 관리자의 요구에 따라 조정지 댐 방류 수문 위치조정 및 방류량 조절 등의 조치를 취하고 있지만, 그 효과는 정량적으로 검토되어지지 않았다. 그러므로 본 연구에서는 위에서 명기한 조치의 실효성을 파악 하고자, 수문의 위치변화에 따른 취수구 부근의 수리특성을 조사하였다. 구체적인 조사항목은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 하천용 유량측정장비 (StreamPro ADCP (Teledyne RD Instruments))를 이용한 방류구와 취수구 사이의 유량 조사 둘째, 다 항목 수질 및 3차원 유속 측정장비 (ADV6600 (Sontek / YSI, Inc.))를 이용한 취수구 앞에서의 유속, 유향 및 수위변동 조사 셋째, 수위계 (Orphimedes (OTT MESSTECHNIK GmbH & Co. KG)) 및 파고계 (Compact-WH (Alec Electronics Co., Ltd.))를 이용한 하천을 횡단하는 취수구 좌 우 지점에서의 수위변동 모니터링 그 결과 방류수문의 위치변화에 따른 취수구 인근의 수리학적 특성은 조정지 댐의 방류수문으로부터 약 100 - 150 m 하류의 횡단면에서는 유속분포의 차이가 발견 되었으나 하류로 흐름이 진행됨에 따라 그 차이는 감쇄되고 약 200m 떨어진 취수구 앞의 횡단면에서는 유속분포가 거의 동일함을 알 수 있었다.

The feasibility of the Natural and Ecological Wastewater treatment System (NEWS) was examined for rural wastewater treatment in Korea. The intermittent trickling biofilter with high hydrophilic filter media was used for pretreatment for suspended solids and organic pollutants. The subsequent constructed wetland with porous granule materials was used for promoting nutrient removal. The results show that the removal efficiencies of the system were high with respect to the water quality parameters except COD. Even if the effluent from the biofilter did not meet the guidelines for wastewater treatment plant effluent in Korea in terms of $BOD_5$ and TN, the final effluent of the system meets the guidelines us to good performance of the constructed wetland. The regression analysis between pollutant loading rate and removal rate indicated that the system could have stable removal for SS, $BOD_5$, TN, and TP in the given influent ranges. The analysis in the winter period indicated that the wetland covered with transparent polycarbonate glass had the statble performance during the winter period dus to increase of temperature inside the wetland without any heating system. With the stable performance, effective poilutant removal, low maintenance, and cost-effectiveness, the NEWS could be considered as an alternative treatment system for decentralized regions and rural communities in Korea.

In this study, the development of biosensors capable of bi-enzyme reactions by including Horseradish peroxidase and glucose oxidase was carried out for detection of glucose. The sensors were manufactured using electro deposition method to reduce production time, and screen printed electrodes (SPE) were used to produce economical sensors. To check the bienzyme effect, the sensor was compared and analyzed with single enzyme biosensor. The characteristics of the sensor were evaluated using scanning electron microscopy(SEM), cyclic voltammetry(CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS), chronoamperometry(CA), and flow injection analysis(FIA). Analysis results from SEM, CV and EIS confirmed that the enzymes are well fixed to the electrode surface. In addition, it was confirmed that bi-enzyme biosensors manufactured from the CA method improved signal performance by 200% compared to single enzyme biosensors. From this results, we were able to explain that HRP and GOD react catalyzed to each other. And the results of FIA showed that the intensity of each current signal was constant when the same concentration of glucose was injected four times. In addition, by analyzing the intensity of current signals for glucose concentrations, the biosensors manufactured in this study showed excellent trends in signal sensitivity, reproducibility and stability.

The TMDL, the watershed-oriented water quality management policy, was introduced to inhibit the total amount of pollutant loading generation, and to develop the region environmentally friendly. However, despite the implementation of TMDL, the water quality of Nam river downstream has worsened continuously since 2005. Diverse pollution sources such as cities and industrial zone are scattered around the Nam river. Eutrophication are caused due to deterioration of water quality by low velocity. BOD concentrations in the eutrophic waters affected by the incoming BOD and the autochthonous BOD by the production of phytoplankton. In this study, the quantitative relation of incoming BOD and autochthonous BOD was analyzed for water quality management. The influence of autochthonous BOD was analyzed using QUALKO2 and QUAL2E. Considering the effects of Chl.a, BOD concentration from QUALKO2 model simulations is higher than BOD concentration from QUAL2E model. The results of QUALKO2 showed higher correlation with the measured data. Autochthonous BOD needs to be managed to solve the water pollution problem of Nam river downstream, which is looking for ways to reduce Chl.a by using the increase of the dam outflow and the improvement of the water quality from WWTP.

One of the major deficiencies of composite restorative resins is their insufficient resistance to wear. Of the multitude of factors that have been associated with wear, subsurface degradation within the restoration is considered to be one. The aim of this study was to evaluate the resistance to degradation of four commercial composite resins in an alkaline solution. The brands studied were Z100(3M), Clearfil AP-X(Kuraray), Tetric Ceram(Vivadent), Aelit flo(Bisco). Resistance to degradation was evaluated on the basis of the following parameters: (a) mass loss(%) - determined from pre-and post-exposure specimen weights: (b) Si loss(ppm) - obtained from ICP-AE analysis of solution exposed to specimens; and (c) degradation depth(${\mu}m$) - measured microscopically (SEM) from polished circular sections of exposed specimens. The results were as follows: 1. The sequence of the mass loss was in ascending order by AE, EL, TC, Z100. There was statistically significant difference of mass loss between AE, CL group and TC, Z100 group(p<0.05). 2. The sequence of the degree of degradation layer depth was in ascending order by AE, CL, TC, Z100. But there was no statistically significant difference of degree of degradation layer depth between AE and CL(p<0.05). 3. For the Si concentration, Z100 was the highest of all. 4. The correlation coefficient between mass loss and degradation depth was relatively high(r=0.71 p<0.05).
