Massive underground excavation can be carried out recently due to the technical development of the excavation for retaining wall. Feed-back analysis using field measurement results is recommended to secure the stability of the construction because calculated values at stages of the design and the construction are uncertain. Reinforcement plan should be established based on the result of it. This study deals with the underground excavation site, which is under construction and is close to structure(subway) at downtown area. The result of feed-back analysis on the measurement data of displacement at multi-soil layers was reflected to make a plan for safe construction. This case study can be useful information for contingency plan on abnormal displacement which can be occurred at similar underground excavation.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the possibility of providing familiar tasks as a treatment option to decrease echolalia. Two comparisons were made：One was to compare ‘conversation condition’ and ‘task performance condition.’ and the other was to compare ‘task performance alone condition’ and ‘task performance along with contingency of reinforcement condition.’ Two echolalic children aged 12 and 13 years participated in the experiment and A-B-A-B-BC-B-BC design was used, in which A was conversation only, B was task performance, and C was task performance along with contingency of reinforcement. In the A condition, the therapist asked easy and short questions to the child；in the B condition the child was given familiar tasks with short instruction, and in BC condition, each child was reinforced for his performance on given tasks, in which immediate echolalia was controlled through his hands being held down for 5 seconds. Delayed echolalia was recorded without any intervention being given. Each child was put into each of the 7 treatment conditions. With a 15 minutes session, each child went through 5 to 6 sessions per day for 2 weeks. The mean echolalia(immediate) rates across the 7 treatment conditions were：For child 1, A(99%)-B(65%)-A(95%)-B(10%)-BC(7%)-B(6%)- BC(7%) and for child 2, A(67%)-B(62%)-A(63%)-B(35%)-BC(8%)-B(4%)-BC(0%). As to the generalization of the treatment effect of immediate echolalia to the untreated delayed echolalia, there was shown a drastic reduction of delayed echolalia in child 2：A(35%)-B(57%)-A(56%)-B(40%)-BC(8%)-B(5%)-BC(9%). Child l’s delayed echolalia was negligible(mean=3%) pre-and post treatments. In conclusion, the results of this study clearly show that providing a task performance setting with familiar tasks can certainly be helpful for minimizing echolalic response, and along with the use of the contingency of reinforcement technique it can further not only correct echolalic behavior to a negligible degree but also help the echolalic child generalize its treatment effect to the child’ overall language improvement.

The reverse of reinforcement technique was used in treating rumination of a 12-year old (estimated age) mentally retarded child in a residential setting. The subject's rumination pattern was first to vomit the food onto the floor and then to eat it back in several attempts. Consequently, the way to reverse the contingency of rumination in this child was to take away the discharge whenever rumination occurred. An ABAB single subject design was adopted to evaluate the treatment effect. In baseline 1 the frequency of his rumination for 2.5 hours after eating was an average of 46(range= 30-62), while decreased to 6.7 in treatment condition 1. However, when the discharge was not taken away in baseline 2, his rumination increased to 34 times and then decreased to zero to 1 time when the reverse of reinforcement was reinstituted in treatment condition 2. The results clearly indicate that the reverse of reinforcement which was implemented in the form of removing the discharge from the floor was successful. It was reported that the treatment effect has been maintained over 10 months post treatment.

Fuzzy theory is used to quantify some subjective criteria and consider uncertain factors for transmission line reinforcement planning in this paper. Sugeno's fuzzy integral is also used in the proposed method, because it can be easily allied to multi attribute decision making problems such as power system planning. To verify the proposed algorithm, some bode-neck lines are searched for the case that the amount of Maximal Load Supplying Capability(MLSC) is small using the results of contingency analysis for Korea Electric Power Corporation(KEPCO)'s 345[kV] transmission line in 1998. And several feasible alternatives are composed for line reinforcement which can dissolve the bottle-neck.

When a contingency occurs in a large transmission route in a power system, it can generate various instabilities that may lead to a power system blackout. In particular, transient instability in a power system needs to be immediately addressed, and preventive measures should be in place prior to fault occurrence. Measures to achieve transient stability include system reinforcement, power generation restriction, and generator tripping. Because the interpretation of transient stability is a time domain simulation, it is difficult to determine the efficacy of proposed countermeasures using only simple simulation results. Therefore, several methods to quantify transient stability have been introduced. Among them, the single machine equivalent (SIME) method based on the equal area criterion (EAC) can quantify the degree of instability by calculating the residual acceleration energy of a generator. However, method for generator tripping effect evaluation does not have been established. In this study, we propose a method to evaluate the effect of generator tripping on transient stability that is based on the SIME method. For this purpose, the measures that reflect generator tripping in the SIME calculation are reviewed. Simulation results obtained by applying the proposed method to the IEEE 39-bus system and KEPCO system are then presented.

It follows in increase of the old age population and the loss of teeth increases, also the supplement prosthetics treatment which is caused by loss of teeth is various and it develops and the dentistry implant demand is increasing. This study enforced a self-administered survey with 197 dental personnels employed in dental hospitals, dental clinics from August 15, 2007, to September 15, in the area of Daejeon. It's ultimately intended to serve as a basis for the preparation of more effective, appropriate dental implants education programs for personnels, who take a crucial part in dental implants operation, provide better dental services to patients who are in need of dental implants operation. As the result, the study got the following conclusion. 1. The population sociological feature of dental hospital and dental clinic showed that significant differences of dental service career. Dental service career of dental personnels shows; below 3 years 43.1%, 4~6 years 35.3%, more than 7 years 21.6% in dental hospitals, below 3 years 29.5%, 4~6 years 28.1%, more than 7 years 42.5% in dental clinics(p=0.027). 2. The average score of personnels knowledge in dental implants was 3.67point, from analyzing the knowledge on dental implants of dental personnels from dental health-care settings, dental personnels employed in dental hospitals scored relatively higher than in dental clinics(p=0.129). Dental personnels with 4~6 years of experience scored the highest(p=0.002). 3. The average score of dental personnels compliance in dental implants was 3.92point, from analyzing the compliance of dental implants of dental personnels from dental health-care settings, dental personnels employed in dental hospitals scored relatively higher than in dental clinics(p=0.006). Dental personnels with 4~6 years of experience scored the highest(p=0.707). 4. The contingency coefficient between dental implants general knowledge and the general compliance(r=0.233, p=0.001), operation knowledge and operation compliance(r=0.332, p=0.000), maintenance knowledge and maintenance compliance(r=0.236, p=0.001). 5. Recently dental implants is emerging as one of the important medical services in the dental treatment sector. From analyzing the compliance of dental implants of dental personnels in dental health-care settings, dental personnels employed in dental hospitals scored relatively higher than in dental clinics. Consequently, the effort of the dentist and the dental personnels demanded to be earnestly to improves the difference of the knowledge and compliance against the dental implants of the dental personnels in dental health-care settings, it is thought that with reinforcement of effective role share and professionalism to success of dental implants, more system and the specialty dental implants education which is standardized continuously must be provided to all dental personnels.

The purpose of this study is to capture the essentials in survey and evaluation scheme which are able to assess the hazard of a rock slope systematically. Statistical analysis are performed on slope instability parameters related to failure of the rock slope. As the slope instability parameters, twelve survey items are considered such as tension crack, surface deformation, deformation of retaining structures, volume of existing failures, angles between strike of discontinuity and strike of cut slope face, angles between dip of discontinuity and dip of cut slope face, discontinuity condition, cut slope angle, rainfall or ground water level, excavation condition, drainage condition, reinforcement. A total of 233 road cut slopes located in Gyeongnam were considered. The stability of the road cut slopes were evaluated by estimating the slope instability index(SII) and corresponding stability rank. 126 rock slopes were selected to analyze statistical relation between SII and slope instability parameters. The multiple regression analysis was applied to derive statistical models which are able to predict the SII and corresponding slope stability rank. Also, its applicability was explored to predict the slope failures using the variables of slope instability parameters. The results obtained in this study clearly show that the methodology given in this paper have strong capabilities to evaluate the failures of the road cut slope effectively.
