현장 시험 부지에서 확장판 선단부착 PHC말뚝 및 볼트 수직이음 PHC말뚝에 대한 시험시공을 실시하고 시공중 건전성을 동재하시험으로 확인하고 시공 후 말뚝의 건전성을 직접 확인하였다. 그 결과를 분석하여 확장판 선단부착 PHC말뚝 및 볼트 수직이음 PHC말뚝의 시공 중 건전성을 동재하시험의 건전도지수(${\beta}$지수)로 평가할 수 있는지에 대하여 연구하였다. 이론적으로 말뚝 선단에 매우 인접하거나 선단끝단에서 발생하는 손상(특히 확장판 선단부착구 자체의 변형)은 시험기술의 특성상 건전도지수로 정확한 평가하는 데에는 한계가 있었다. 말뚝의 선단부에 바로 인접해서 발생하거나 말뚝선단 끝단에서의 손상을 PDA시험을 통하여 명확하게 평가하는 데에는 시험기술의 이론에 대한 고도의 지식과 경험이 요구되었다. 다른 볼트 수직이음구로 인하여 실질적인 1차원 파동전달이 용접이음에서와 다를 수 있다는 점, 타격에 의해 발생하는 응력파의 파장이 볼트 수직이음구 높이(약 100mm)보다 클 수 있다는 점, PDA 분석 기능 중 베타 프로세싱(Beta processing)이라는 기능 등이 매우 심도 있는 지식과 경험을 토대로 평가해야만 더욱 정밀한 판단이 이루어질 수 있다는 점 등을 종합적으로 고려할 때 일반적인 건전성 평가기술로 볼트 수직이음의 건전성을 평가하는 데에는 한계가 있었다.

Objective: The aim was to investigate the influence of ultrasound and adenosine 5'-monophosphate (AMP) marination (UAMP) on tenderness and structure of myofibrillar proteins of beef. Methods: Five groups, the untreated meat (Control), deionized water marination (DW), ultrasound followed by DW (UDW), AMP marination (AMP), and ultrasound followed by AMP (UAMP) were studied. Myofibrillar fragmentation, cooking loss, shear force, thermograms, histological observation of meats and myofibrillar proteins properties were investigated in these different treatments. Results: The results showed that UAMP significantly increased myofibrillar fragmentation index from 152 (Control), 231 (AMP), and 307 (UDW) to 355 (p<0.05), respectively. The lowest cooking loss, shear force and peak denaturation temperature were observed in UAMP. In histological observation, UDW and UAMP had more fragmented muscular bundles than the others. Furthermore, a drastic increase in ${\alpha}$-helix and decrease in ${\beta}$-sheet of myofibrillar proteins was observed in UAMP, implying the disaggregation of protein samples. The synchronous fluorescence spectra of myofibrillar proteins in UAMP suggested the combination of ultrasound and AMP could accelerate the unfolding molecular structure and destroying hydrophobic interactions. The results of circular dichroism and synchronous fluorescence spectra for myofibrillar proteins coincided with the microstructures of beef. Conclusion: The results indicate that ultrasound combined with AMP improved meat tenderness not only by disruption in muscle integrity, increasing water retention, but also altering their spatial structure of myofibrillar proteins.

Connectivity is a quantitative indicator of landscape structure, and connectivity of urban green areas is an indicator of ecological integrity in urban landscapes. The purposes of this study are to assess the connectivity of urban green areas in Seoul, and to develop a method of siting new green areas for better connectivity. Diverse methods for connectivity assessment and indices of connectivity are reviewed and applied to the connectivity assesment of green areas in Seoul. The indices of connectivity of green areas in Seoul turned out to be higher than expected, maybe because many of them are rather evenly distributed, serving as stepping stones, and because there are many riparian corridors, including the Han River. Analysis also shows the optimum location of new green space patches or corridors will be those spots that would link the mainland, or large green areas outside the city, and existing green areas in the city. Restoration of urban streams as ecological corridors will significantly enhance connectivity. Three different scenarios with increasing numbers of new green areas in the city were then prepared. The changes of connectivity were measured and the possible success rates of animal dispersal were simulated. The results revealed that restoration of streams will increase the connectivity and success rates of animal dispersal.

This study was designed to evaluate the gastroprotective activity of cirsilineol in hydrochloric acid (HCl)/ethanol-induced gastric ulcer model. Cirsilineol was administered at the doses of 20 and 40 mg/kg in HCl/ethanol-induced rats. The gastroprotective ability was verified by determining the ulcer score, total acidity, hemoglobin, inflammatory cytokines, lipid peroxides, and enzymatic antioxidants superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) in gastric tissue and serum biochemical analysis. The results showed a favorable increase in the hemoglobin level, antioxidant enzymes (SOD and CAT), restored electrochemical balance (carbon dioxide & anion gap) while a noticeable decrease in ulcer index, total acidity, lipid peroxides, inflammatory cytokines (interleukin-1 beta [IL-1β], IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor alpha) in rats treated with the cirsilineol. The serum biochemical analysis on liver markers (alkaline phosphatases, alanine aminotransferase, and aspartate aminotransferase), kidney markers (urea, creatinine, albumin, globulin, total protein), and lipid profile (triglyceride, high-density lipoprotein, total cholesterol) were attenuated by cirsilineol treatment in rats. Histopathology showed enhanced gastric protection and preserved the integrity of gastric mucosa upon cirsilineol administration. These results ultimately suggest that cirsilineol has gastroprotective effects that prevent the development of gastric ulcer.
