A comparative study of 134 mechanical (Dutch cone) and 9. electronic cone (Piezocone) penetration data from the southern part of Korea has been performed. In general, Dutch cone results may be different from piezocone results due to the difference in structure of the cones. Cone penetrometer test data were analyzed and plotted in soil classification chart proposed by Robertson et. al.(1986,1990) Cone factors of Dutch cone and piezocone test have empirically been determined using laboratory and field vane test results. Using this cone factors, it was shown that there was good correlation between shear strength estimated using cone resistance and that of laboratory test and field vane tests. It was found that there was a good correlation between cone resistance from Dutch cone and that from piezocone. Dutch cone test provides a useful means for stratigraphic profiling in large project and has some advantage over piezocone in particular situations, such as very soft clay ground and dredged area.

Molecular imprinting, which was first proposed by Wulff and Sarhan in 1972 [1], is a facile way to construct molecular recognition sites by applying a simple radical polymerization [2]. Since 1994, the authors have proposed an alternative molecular imprinting method in which polymeric materials are directly converted into molecular recognition materials [3].(omitted)

The object of the present paper is to study weakly Z symmetric spacetimes $(WZS)_4$. At first we prove that a weakly Z symmetric spacetime is a quasi-Einstein spacetime and hence a perfect fluid spacetime. Next, we consider conformally flat $(WZS)_4$ spacetimes and prove that such a spacetime is infinitesimally spatially isotropic relative to the unit timelike vector field ${\rho}$. We also study $(WZS)_4$ spacetimes with divergence free conformal curvature tensor. Moreover, we characterize dust fluid and viscous fluid $(WZS)_4$ spacetimes. Finally, we construct an example of a $(WZS)_4$ spacetime.

Let r ≥ 2, and let k_i ≥ 2 for 1 ≤ i ≤ r. Mixed van der Waerden's theorem states that there exists a least positive integer w = w(k₁, k₂, k₃, …, k_r; r) such that for any n ≥ w, every r-colouring of [1, n] admits a k_i-term arithmetic progression with colour i for some i ∈ [1, r]. For k ≥ 3 and r ≥ 2, the mixed van der Waerden number w(k, 2, 2, …, 2; r) is denoted by w₂(k; r). B. Landman and A. Robertson [9] showed that for k < r < $\frac{3}{2}$(k - 1) and r ≥ 2k + 2, the inequality w₂(k; r) ≤ r(k - 1) holds. In this note, we establish some results on w₂(k; r) for 2 ≤ r ≤ k.

본 연구의 목적은 안전행동과 사고 발생을 예측하고 관리하기 위해 안전성향검사 도구를 개발하고 타당도를 검증하는 것이었다. 안전 심리 분야에서 근로자의 안전 행동에 영향을 미치는 주요 변인으로 안전 리더십과 안전 문화에 대한 연구들이 많이 진행되어 왔다. Lewin에 따르면 Behavior = Person * Environment으로 환경은 물리적 환경(기계, 장비 등)과 심리-사회적(psyco-social) 환경(안전 리더십/문화)으로 구분할 수 있다. 하지만 국내의 경우 근로자 개인 특성이 안전 수행에 미치는 영향에 대한 연구는 부족하였다. 개인 특성 중 일관되게 행동에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 변인이 성격이고, Lee 등(2018)은 개인 성격이 안전/불안전 행동에 영향을 미칠 확률은 35% 이상이며, 불안전 행동으로 한정해 보면 50% 이상이라고 하였다. 그리고 불안전한 행동으로 인한 사고는 비교적 소수의 직원에 의해 발생한다고 하였다(Clarke & Robertson 2008). 따라서 안전/불안전 행동을 예측할 수 있는 성격 특성을 검증하여, 직원 선발이나 재직자 코칭에 활용한다면 산업 재해 예방에 도움이 될 수 있다

Horizontal consolidation characteristics of Busan marine clay were investigated by computing coefficient of horizontal consolidation from Piezocone data and comparing their results with those of standard consolidation test. It is well known that current prediction models of $c_h$ for high plastic soils have large uncertainties, and show a great difference between the predicted and the measured values. However, the spherical models and expanding cavity theory of Torstensson(1977), and Burns & Mayne(1998) based on modified Cam-Clay model with critical limit state concepts have relative reliability in estimating $c_h$ and good applicability in highly plasticity soils. In this paper, a normalization technique was used to evaluate $c_h$ using the Burns and Mayne's method based on the dissipation test, and their normalized consolidation curves give 0.015 of time factor($T_{50}$) when 50% degree of consolidation is completed. Comparison study using Piezocone data obtained at other similar ground site shows 1.5 times less systematicality than that of standard consolidation test, which indicates considerable approximation with the measured values because standard consolidation test gives the difference of three to few times compared with the measured values. In addition, design chart for estimating $c_h$ based on the chart from Robertson et al.(1992) and using the other method of the direct prediction from the of dissipation test was newly proposed. It is judged that new proposed chart is very applicable to Korean marine soils, especially in very high plastic soils.

Growth of Ammodytes personatus was investigated based on the specimens collected in the costal waters of Shinsudo, Sacheon from March 20 to December 14, 1988. Age determination based on otolith. The rings in the otolith were used as the basis for age annulus. The time of ring formation was estimated to one time per year in May far 1st ring group and March for 2nd ring group. The spawning season peaked in December. It takes approximately 16 months for the first ring and 11 months for the second ring to form in the otolith. The opaque zone was formed and marked over summer at 1st ring group and spawning mark at 2nd ring group. The relationship between the total length(TL) and otolith radius(R), and body weight(BW) were represented respectively as follows: TL=29.17+182.9R, BW=$4.9{\times}10^{-8}TL^{3.9587}$. Von Bertalanffy growth model is $TL_t$ = 177.273 ($1_e^{-0.040(t+7.332)}$), Robertson growth model is $TL_t=\frac{150.275}{1+2.085e^{-0.099t}}$ and Gompertz growth model is $TL_t=157.551e^{-1.214exp(-0.069t)}$.

Using the results from laboratory soil test, field vane test and piezocone penetration test, the engineering characteristics of the soft ground at east side of Gwangyang Port, which is located at south coast of Jeollanam-do, were investigated and optimal piezocone penetration test depth was derived to calculate piezocone factor. In this paper, the results of 61 laboratory soil tests, 226 times of field vane tests and 26 piezocone penetration tests were used. The result of laboratory soil test suggested that some physical properties such as specific gravity, moisture content, liquid limit and plastic index and others are higher than other south coast regions, meanwhile uniaxial compression strength, undrained shear strength, defined as mechanical property, appeared to be relatively small, distributed widely. According to the plastic chart, the ground was classified as high compressibility clay and low compressibility clay, mostly represent to Type 3 clay by Robertson (1990)'s classification chart. Piezocone factor was calculated by empirical method, based on the undrained shear strength which was obtained by the field vane test. According to the analysis with 3 different depth range, to set the appropriate measured depth range of piezocone penetration for comparation, using average value of the range of 5 times the vane length showed the highest correlation.

Predicting the settlement of soft ground is an important aspect of soft ground design. In this study, a method is proposed that increases the reliability of settlement predictions based on-site investigation data, including piezocone penetration test results, at the Gimhae-Jinyoung district, adjacent area to the Nakdong River. Soils in the area waweres classified using the Robertson Chart (1986, 1990), and theoretical settlement was calculated using the equations proposed by Terzaghi (1925) and Sanglerat (1972). SPSS was used to obtain the correlation between theoretical and measured settlements. Results produced settlement prediction errors for the Terzaghi and Sanglerat methods of 17.28% and 26.96%, respectively. A correction factor calculated by SPSS correlation analysis for the relation between and theoretical and measured settlements is proposed that improves the reliability of settlement prediction in soils of the classification examined.

The advantage of piezocone penetration test is a guarantee of continuous data, which is a source of reliable interpretation of target soil layer. Many researches have been carried out f3r several decades and several classification charts have been developed to classify in-situ soil from the cone penetration test result. Since most present classification charts or methods were developed based on the data which were compiled over the world except Korea, they should be verified to be feasible for Korean soil. Furthermore, sometimes their charts provide different soil classification results according to the different input parameters. However, unfortunately, revision of those charts is quite difficult or almost impossible. In this research a new soil classification model is proposed by using fuzzy C-mean clustering and neuro-fuzzy theory based on the 5371 CPT results and soil logging results compiled from 17 local sites around Korea. Proposed neuro-fuzzy soil classification model was verified by comparing the classification results f3r new data, which were not used during learning process of neuro-fuzzy model, with real soil log. Efficiency of proposed neuro-fuzzy model was compared with other soft computing classification models and Robertson method for new data.
