  • The vertical distribution and seasonal fluctuation of soil microarthropods in the forests with different flora were investigated in this study. soil micrarthropods were concentrated as much as 71.8% in the first layer subsoil (0-5cm), 22.3% in the second layer subsoil (5-10cm), and 5.9% in the third layer subsoil (10-15cm) in the decreasing order. The population density in the first layer decreased slightly in winter while that of the second layer increased. However, the density in the first layer bounced back in the following spring. Seasonal fluctuations of population density were revealed "Two peak-Two valley type", that is, the densities were high in fall and spring, and low in winter and summer.nd summer.

  • This study was carried out to investigate the population density and biomass of soil microarthropods in the forests with different flora. soil microarthropods of 29,475 individuals were identified into 6 different classes, and 18 different orders. Acarina were the most numerous with abundance of 74.8% followed by 17.9% of Collembola, comprising 92.7% of arthropod fauna. Similar dominance of the two groups was found also in biomass although the level reaching no more than 63.9%. The A/C ratio in the broad-leaved forests are higher than that in the coniferous forests.

  • Fecal examination for survey of natural prevalence of Balantidium coli was performed on 1080 healthy bred pigs in Korea, and the positive rate was 56.2%. In order to observe if Balantidium coli might be a secondary invader after certain initiation of the intestinal lesions, the piglet groups preinfected with the protozoa experimentally were treated with Salmonella cholerasuis, Trichuris. cold stress, HCI, and immunosuppressive drug respectively, but no relation was found between them. Also the protozoa were not detected from the intestinal lesions spontaneously formed of 107 pigs which were checked in the slaughter house. According to the above results, Balantidium coli is not directly associated with the formation of any lesions in the pig's large intestine.

  • PURPOSES : This study focuses on conducting pavement rehabilitation for more deteriorated roads given a limited government budget. METHODS : Therefore, we apply a optimization programming model of the permutation algorithm used for rehabilitating more deteriorated pavement areas, which is subjected to the limited budget. RESULTS : The permutation algorithm was evaluated in terms of determining the maximized rehabilitation of deteriorated pavement areas, using the newly developed performance models such as fatigue cracking, rutting, international roughness index(IRI) through the surveying data from 2006 to 2012. When compared with a traditional model of the so-called worst-first sequence(WFS) method, the permutation algorithm worked better than the WFS method, resulting in covering more deteriorated pavement areas given the limited government budget. CONCLUSIONS : Through a case study, it could be concluded that the permutation algorithm provides more reliable results in terms of rehabilitating more deteriorated pavement areas given the limited budget.

  • Solar activities ejecting high energy particles influence satellites and satellite communications as well as perturb geomagnetic fields. To understand space environments near the Earth being influenced by the Sun, we must study about the magnetosphere, the ionosphere, and the atmosphere beforehand. To study this issue, we investigate some ionospheric models, atmospheric models and geomagnetic field models : IRI(International Reference Ionosphere), PIM(Parameterized Ionospheric Model) and IGRF(International Geomagnetic Reference Field). We develop the models and build a web site to serve IRI, PIM and IGRF model on the internet so that one can easily get information of daily and global ionospheric and geomagnetic variations.

  • In order to investigate the effects of Chungylsodokeum on Analgesic, Anti-inflammatory activity were administered. The results were summarized as follows : 1. The Analgesic effect of acetic acid showed inhibitory effect more than Chungyulsodokeum extract 3mg/kg. 2. The Analgesic effect of Hot Plate showed inhibitory effect more than Chungyulsodokeum 100mg/kg. 3. The Anti-inflammatory effect of Acetic acid showed inhibitory effect at Chungyulsodokeum extract 30, 100mg/kg.

  • The purpose of this study was to analyze the characteristics and images of colors in the stewardess's uniforms. For this study, 530 color samples were selected by extracting digital color data by using the Eyedropper Tool of Photoshop 7.0. The RGB color data were transformed into H V/C and the attributes of colors and tones were analyzed. The color images were analyzed with the color image scales of IRI and Shigenobu Kobayashi. As a results, purple-blue(21.7%), neutral(20.9%), red(17.9%) and yellow(10.8%) were found to be the most frequently used colors. In the tone analysis, vivid tone(18.7%) occupied high frequency and the next orders were white(17.4%), dark grayish(12.8%), light(8.5%), dark(8.1%). The color images were focused on dynamic, modern, casual, gorgeous, classic, elegance images in the color image scales of IRI and Kobayashi.

  • PURPOSES : Analysis and design of asphalt concrete (AC) and continuously reinforced concrete (CRC) composite pavements. METHODS : In this study, the service life of the AC/CRC composite pavements was determined based on the probabilistic method in the mechanistic-empirical pavement design guide(MEPDG). Typical pavement design was provided with respect to heavy truck traffic volume of highways. RESULTS : The service life of the composite pavements based on IRI was shorter than that based on rutting at lower traffic volume, but this trend was switched at higher traffic volume. CONCLUSIONS : It is concluded that the main distress affecting the service life of the composite pavements was longitudinal roughness and rutting. Roughness became lower, but rut depth became greater as the stiffness of the CRC increased.

  • Series of experiments were conducted to determine lethal does of X-ray and Neutron on Toxoplasma gondii. strain RH and IRI. As well morphological changes of Toxoplasma gondii irradiated or not were compared by use of electron microscope. The pathogenicity test of the irradiated and nonirradiated Toxoplasma gondii was made in mice guinea-pigs, rabbits and pigs: The letahl dose of X-ray and Neutron on RH and IRI strain and the growth rate between two strains after irradiation were shown little differences. Morphological changes were not observed until 18th passage was made. After then, the growth rate was decreased apparently, and atrophied forms were frequently observed in electron microscope. Survival time of animals inoculated with irradiated strain was longer than that of animals giving non-irradiated strain, and Toxoplasma gondii were isolated from all the dead animals. But it is of interest that pigs survived after injection of Toxoplasma gondii remained health and much attempts were failed toisolate Toxplasma gondii remained health and much attempts were slaughtered them. Animals were succumbed after injection of Toxoplasma gondii without any relationship with serum titers. (HA antibody).

  • Dysarthria is a degenerative disorder of the central nervous system that affects the control of articulation and pitch; therefore, it affects the uniqueness of sound produced by the speaker. Hence, dysarthric speaker recognition is a challenging task. In this paper, a feature-extraction method based on deep belief networks is presented for the task of identifying a speaker suffering from dysarthria. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated and compared with well-known Mel-frequency cepstral coefficient features. For classification purposes, the use of a multi-layer perceptron neural network is proposed with two structures. Our evaluations using the universal access speech database produced promising results and outperformed other baseline methods. In addition, speaker identification under both text-dependent and text-independent conditions are explored. The highest accuracy achieved using the proposed system is 97.3%.
