This study aims to analyse the landscape ecological characteristics of 39 rural villages in Korea and classify them according to their characteristics. After producing a land-use map of rural villages, this study quantified the landscape ecological characteristics of the subject sites as 18 landscape indexes using Fragstats. By applying the landscape index as a variable, selecting 4 factor through principal component analysis and conducting a cluster analysis, it classified them into 3 groups. Rural villages of Korea have their unique types of land-use due to the influence of physical environment such as geography, climate and ecology as well as the social and cultural influence, and the characteristics of land-use can be analysed and classified using the landscape index, the quantified landscape ecological characteristics.

This study was carried out to analyze the surface color change according to the weathering time. The surface color of material was one of evaluation indexes in exposure experiment. For the purpose, accelerated weathering test was performed with wood. The weathering time level was composed with 0, 500, 1000, 1500 and 2000 hours and color difference was estimated with the color difference meter. The surface color was changed to 500 hours that lightness and redness were decreased and yellowness was increased. However it did not changed after 500 hours. It means that the surface color could be the evaluation index of deterioration of the wood but it means very little after certain time.

In evaluation of public works, its components related with benefit and cost in feasibility analysis can be classified to quantative and qualitative elements, To evaluate qualitative components which can not be calculated by numerical value, several methods are used to assess relative importance. AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) is representative method which can evaluate importance, but it has difficulties in organization of expert group, execution of question, and subjective decision of questioner. Information measure technique can be used to evaluate these qualitative importance of environmental and social components in public works planning. In result of comparing importances of AHP and information measure technique, it has statistical significance in of road project.

In order to support effective decision-makings related to greenery planning, this study construct a fundamental database about greenery information for Seoul metropolitan area using GIS and Remote Sensing. Greenery evaluation index consists of ecological/ environmental, utilization, social condition value which are used to determine the development priority of undevelopment parks. These indexes will also be utilized for the green area conservation classification for Seoul metropolitan area. This study is a part of previous project called "Management Policy of the Total Amout of Greenery", which was conducted in Seoul Development Institute.Institute.

An integrated method is proposed for structural nonlinear damage detection based on time series analysis and the higher statistical moments of structural responses in this study. It combines the time series analysis, the higher statistical moments of AR model residual errors and the fuzzy c-means (FCM) clustering techniques. A few comprehensive damage indexes are developed in the arithmetic and geometric mean of the higher statistical moments, and are classified by using the FCM clustering method to achieve nonlinear damage detection. A series of the measured response data, downloaded from the web site of the Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) USA, from a three-storey building structure considering the environmental variety as well as different nonlinear damage cases, are analyzed and used to assess the performance of the new nonlinear damage detection method. The effectiveness and robustness of the new proposed method are finally analyzed and concluded.

prenatal and postanatal study on pranoprofen, as an antiinflammatory agent, was conducted by oral administration in Sprague-Dawley pregnancy rats from day 17 of gestation to day 21 of after delivery. Pranoprofen was intubated doses of 1.0, 2.5 and 5.0 mg/kg/day and dose of 5.0mg/kg/day of Indomethacin was used as positive control. After delivery, several study indexes such as length of gestation, No. of implantations, No. of live pups, No. of perinatal deaths, sex ratio and No. of malformation were checked and then all the newborns were feeded and investigated physical and behavioral changes.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the Age of Air and the Local Air-change Effectiveness of by field measurement. The indexes of Age of Air and Local Air-change Effectiveness are used to analyze the local ventilation effectiveness of multiple locations and are mainly evaluated using the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method. In this study, measurement of the Local Air-change Effectiveness was based on ASHRAE 129. The performance of Local Air-change Effectiveness and the dependence of the outlet location on Local Air-change Effectiveness were analyzed. The results showed that a greater air-change rate (ACH) may not guarantee better local ventilation effectiveness.

The likelihood ratio, logistic regression and artificial neural networks methods are applied and verified for analysis of landslide susceptibility in Yongin, Korea using GIS. From a spatial database containing such data as landslide location, topography, soil, forest, geology and land use, the 14 landsliderelated factors were calculated or extracted. Using these factors, landslide susceptibility indexes were calculated by likelihood ratio, logistic regression and artificial neural network methods. Before the calculation, the study area was divided into two sides (west and east) of equal area, for verification of the methods. Thus, the west side was used to assess the landslide susceptibility, and the east side was used to verify the derived susceptibility. The results of the landslide susceptibility analysis were verified using success and prediction rates. The v erification results showed satisfactory agreement between the susceptibility map and the exis ting data on landslide locations.

Hyperspectral images have shown a great potential for the applications in resource management, agriculture, mineral exploration and environmental monitoring. However, due to the large volume of data, processing of hyperspectral images faces some difficulties. This paper introduces the development of an image processing tool (HYVIEW) that is particularly designed for handling hyperspectral image data. Current version of HYVIEW is dealing with efficient algorithms for displaying hyperspectral images, selecting bands to create color composites, and atmospheric correction. Three band-selection schemes for producing color composites are available based on three most popular indexes of OIF, SI and CI. HYVIEW can effectively demonstrate the differences in the results of the three schemes. For the atmospheric correction, HYVIEW utilizes a pre-calculated LUT by which the complex process of correcting atmospheric effects can be performed fast and efficiently.

This article focused on studying the buckling behavior of two-dimensional functionally graded (2D-FG) nanosize tubes, including porosity based on first shear deformation and higher-order theory of tube. The nano-scale tube is simulated based on the nonlocal gradient strain theory, and the general equations and boundary conditions are derived using Hamilton's principle for the Zhang-Fu's tube model (as higher-order theory) and Timoshenko beam theory. Finally, the derived equations are solved using a numerical method for both simply-supported and clamped boundary conditions. The parametric study is performed to study the effects of different parameters such as axial and radial FG power indexes, porosity parameter, nonlocal gradient strain parameters on the buckling behavior of di-dimensional functionally graded porous tube.
