We investigated the effects of feeding rate on the growth performance of growing and sub-adult olive flounder Paralichthys olivaceus, and the optimum feeding rate at high water temperature (25-31℃). In experiment I, two replicated groups of fish (113 g) were fed a commercial diet (CD) at rates of 0, 0.7, 1.2, 1.7, 2.2, and 2.4% (satiation) body weight (BW) per day for 4 weeks. In experiment II, two replicated groups of fish (313 g) were fed a CD feeding rates of 0, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 0.9, and 1.0% (satiation) BW per day for 4 weeks. In experiment I, the weight gain (WG) and specific growth rate (SGR) of fish fed at 0.7 and 0.9% BW per day was significantly higher than that of unfed fish (0%) and fish fed at 0.3, 0.5, and 1.0% (satiation) BW per day. In experiment II, the WG and SGR increased significantly as feeding rate increased from 0 to 2.2% BW per day, but decreased in the satiation group (2.4%). Broken-line regression analysis of WG showed that the optimum feeding rate of growing and sub-adult olive flounder were 1.98% and 0.55% BW per day, respectively, at the high water temperature.

This study compared the effects of diets consisting of experimental extruded pellets (EP), commercial soft extruded pellets (SEP), and raw-fish-based moist pellets (MP) on the growth, flesh quality, and histology of the Korean rockfish Sebastes schlegeli. Three replicated groups of 60 fish each (initial mean weight 152 g) were fed one of two experimental EPs (EP1 and EP2), two commercial SEPs (SEP1 and SEP2), or MP for 11 weeks. The survival, weight gain, and final mean weight of the fish did not differ significantly among the groups. The highest feed efficiency was in fish fed MP (P<0.05), and the protein efficiency ratio of fish fed MP was significantly higher than that of fish fed EP1, EP2, or SEP1, but not significantly different from that of fish fed EP2. The daily feed intake of the fish fed the EPs and SEPs was significantly higher than that of the fish fed MP (P<0.05). The condition factor, Hepatosomatic Index, and Viscerasomatic Index of the fish did not differ significantly among the groups. No notable differences in the textural properties of the dorsal muscle, plasma biochemical parameters, or histological features of the fish were observed in fish fed any diet. This suggests that extruded pellets can be used to feed growing Korean rockfish without compromising growth, flesh quality, or histopathological change in comparison to raw fish-based moist pellets.

We analyzed surface sediments to explain the substrate characteristics of sea cucumber Stichopus japonicus habitat. The analyses included grain-size determination, water content (WC), loss on ignition (IL), chemical oxygen demand (COD), and acid volatile sulfide (AVS) content. We obtained data on sea cucumber density, weight, and length at each station in a marine farming area in the middle of Korea's Taean coast on the West (Yellow) Sea in May, 2012. The apparent density of S. japonicus was high in coarse and bimodal sediments, whereas it was low in fine and unimodal sediments. The mass of S. japonicus was greater in fine than in coarse sediments, showing a different trend from sea cucumber density. The values for WC, IL, COD, and AVS in surface sediments were higher in areas with high densities of S. japonicus than in areas with low sea cucumber densities. In particular, the concentration of AVS was much higher than the value proposed in Japanese criteria for areas with high S. japonicus density.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary inclusion of various additives Solid sulfur, fucoidan, and glucan on growth performance and immune responses in Juvenile olive flounder paralichthys olivaceus. Six experimental diets supplemented with : no additives (CON); 0.5 and 1.0% solid sulfur (S); 0.2 and 0.4% fucoidan (F); 0.1% glucan (G) of these additives diet on a dry-matter basis. Fish averaging $8.2{\pm}0.17g$ were fed one of six experimental diets in triplicate groups for 6 weeks. By the end of the feeding trial, weight gain, feed efficiency, specific growth rate, protein efficiency ratio, hepatosomatic index and condition factor of fish fed diet CON were significantly lower then those of fish fed the all additives diets (P < 0.05). In challenge test, fish were infected by intraperitonel injection of 0.1 ml bacterial suspension with Edwardsiella tarda per fish after the feeding trial. As a result fish fed All additive diet showed a lower cumulative mortality then did fish fed CON diet throughout the challenge test. In conclusion, these results indicated that solid sulfur, fucoidan and glucan enhanced the growth, feed efficiency and non-specific immune activity of juvenile flounder and protect the fish against microbial infections.

This study investigated the possibility of salinity acclimation of freshwater rotifers (Brachionus calyciflorus) as live food for sweetfish (Plecoglossus altivelis) larvae, and also examined the optimal salinity for the growth of sweetfish. Freshwater rotifers cultured in 0 and 4 PSU and seawater rotifers (B. rotundiformis) cultured in 33 PSU were supplied to the larvae with four kinds of enrichment material (condensed freshwater Chlorella, $\omega-yeast,$ baker's yeast, Super Selco) and larval growth at 4 PSU was examined. Growth of the freshwater rotifers positively increased from 0 PSU to 6 PSU, but decreased when over 8 PSU was reached. Growth and survival of the sweet fish larvae reared in 0 PSU were significantly lower than those reared in either 4 PSU or 33 PSU. This indicated that the freshwater rotifers (B. calyciflorus) could be used as live food for sweetfish larvae reared in 4 PSU. The body weight of sweetfish larvae fed on freshwater rotifers enriched with Super Selco was the highest at 0.163 mg, but there was no significant difference in survival and body length of the fish fed with the other enrichment materials. The content of n-3 HUFA of the sweetfish larvae fed on the freshwater rotifers enriched with Super Selco and the condensed freshwater Chlorella was higher than that enriched with $\omega-yeast$ and baker's yeast. These results indicated that B. calyciflorus cultured with the condensed freshwater Chlorella could be used for the sweetfish larvae without enrichment, and the most efficient enrichment material for B. calyciflorus is Super Selco.

The purpose of this research is to rethink Alvar Aalto's architecture on the basis of the aesthetic concept of play. This attempt is valid because he had asserted the importance of play in his design. But more fundamentally, his critical view of the instrumentalised rationalism implied the idea that a human being is "Man the Player" as well as "Man the Thinker", of which theory was elaborated in Johan Huizinga's Homo Ludens (1938). Premised on it, this paper investigated the evolution of the play idea in aesthetics and located Aalto's concept within the map. Summing up, his play was an intuitively grasped desire opposed to a rational requirement, which leads to a dialectical synthesis. This schema is similar to that of Schiller, in which Spiel reconciles the reason and the sense. However, Aalto's play could be differentiated into the "astonishingly rational" and "a jest", each of which roughly corresponds to the Spieltrieb (play impulse) and the sinnliche Trieb (sensuous impulse) in Schiller's thinking. On the other hand, Aalto's architecture illustrates play that could be interpreted as the overflow of surplus energy. This play is the very concept that can bridge the gap in the form-function formula of modern architecture. Aalto's play idea seemed to basically originate from his personality but its value must be confirmed by the Finnish litterateur Yrjo Hirn as Aalto mentioned in his statements (1953 & 1972). It appears that Aalto's play concept was materialised in architecture through his typical design language, such as the undulating wall, the aperspective space, the imitation of nature and the collage of heterogenous elements. However, we should be careful not to reductively analyse the application of play in practise. As Huizinga's comprehensive theory suggests, the play element exists in any cultural areas including any architectural activities. In conclusion, this paper argues that Alvar Aalto the Homo Ludens presented the possibility of critical rationalism in modern architecture by imbuing dry modernism with "the life enhancing charm" of "the art of play".

The purpose of this study was to ascertain the effect of different abutment height and different taper of abutment on retention force of cemented implant-supported prostheses. Test specimens consisted of different abutment height group(3mm, 4mm, 5mm, 6mm, 7mm) and different taper(degrees) abutment group($4^{\circ},\;5^{\circ},\;6^{\circ},\;7^{\circ},\;8^{\circ}$). The surfaces of abutments and crowns were manufactured and finished by automatic lathe(CNC). Luting cement(Tokuso Ionomer) was prepared according to the manufacturer's instruction. And the cylinders were sealed onto the abutments and loaded in compression at 5kg for 10minutes. Excess cement was removed from the abutment-cylinder junction and the specimens were stored at room temparature for 24 hours. Specimens were tested in tension using a universal testing machine. Within the limits of this study, the following conclusions were drawn: 1. The increase in abutment height result in improvement in retention strength(P<0.05). 2. The increase in taper of abutment result in decrease in retention strength(P<0.05). 3. The decrease in abutment height result in decrease in retention strength, besides has a significantly lower retention strength at 3mm abutment height. 4. The increase in taper of abutment result in decrease in retention strength, besides has a significantly lower retention strength at $7^{\circ}$ abutment.

Omni-directional antennas of UHF-Band are located on the top and bottom side of the Smart UAV in order to connect a link always. Therefore one of each antennas should be connected to a ground antenna. Because the communication link of the omni-directional antennas is influenced by the objectives around aircraft, the clearance of LOS(Line of Sight) should be achieved in order to avoid a loss of link. In this paper, the analysis results on the influence of the complex objectives placed around the antenna on the communication link are presented according to the change of attitude angles. The best positions of antennas are selected based on the electromagnetic analysis using XGTD tool which supports the modeling of antenna pattern. The flight tests of the Smart UAV were successfully performed with the selected antenna position.

This study investigated the effects of dietary inclusion of sea mud on growth and body composition of juvenile sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus. In experiment 1, three experimental diets containing sea mud at the level of 0, 30 and 60% were prepared. After feeding trial for 7 weeks, survival was not significantly different among groups. Final mean weight of sea cucumber fed the experimental diet without sea mud supplementation was significantly higher than that of sea cucumber fed the diet containing 30 and 60% sea mud. In experiment 2, three experimental diets containing sea mud at the levels of 0, 15 and 30% were prepared. After feeding trial for 19 weeks, survival was not significantly different among groups. Final mean weight of sea cucumber fed the diet without sea mud supplementation was not significantly different from that of 15%, but was significantly higher than that of sea cucumber fed the diet containing 30% sea mud. It was concluded that dietary inclusion of sea mud may inhibit growth of sea cucumber.

This study aims to systemize the developement of the domestic girder bridges, and to contribute to the future construction of our own bridges. Bridges are analyzed by grouping them in terms of construction time and structural component. The bridges, which were constructed during the first era of Goryeo-dynasty, have no distinction between main beams and stone deck. Form the latter era of Goryeo-dynasty, the structure of the bridges began to seperate into main beams and stone deck in order to enlarge the width and span length. The bridges, which were constructed during the Chosun-dynasty, were constructed using modulized material, and are considered to be built by structural design concept. Their construction materials became larger due to the development of transportation method. The superstructure of the old Korean bridges became more complicated in contrast to simplification of the substructures.
