Various geological structures are found on the slope of Bangnim district in Pyeongchang, Gangwon-do, based on the Paleozoic Joseon Supergroup Limestone. The recumbent fold observed on the slope is a very rare geological structure that has not been found in Korea, and has important academic value in exploring the formation process of the Paleozoic geological structures in the Gangwon region. In this study, discussed the geological value of the geological structure observed on the slope of the road, and studied the management method of rockfall problem slopes. The state of development of recumbent folds has conservation value in geological scarcity and specificity. Preservation management measures should be prepared through the protection of slopes and measures to reduce of rockfall risks as geoheritage with an important value in geology science and education. Furthermore, it is expected to be preserved and utilized as a geopark.

Immature embryos of Glycine max L. was cultured on Murashige and Skoog's (MS) medium supplemented with 1 mg/L 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid (2,4-D). After 6 to 8 weeks of culture, immature embryos produced somatic embryos. Of somatic embryos, two cotyledonary embryo (14%), one cotyledonary embryo (37%), fused cotyledonary embryo (43%), and stunted globular embryos (6%) were observed. The procambial strand of cotyledons originated from circular procambial tissues of lower hypocotyl. The circular procambial tissues were independently divided into one or two procambial strand at the edge of cotyledonary-node, and then connected to each cotyledon to form somatic embryos with one or two cotyledons. When cotyledon was a fused type, the circular procambial strand in lower hypocotyl was continuously connected to the cotyledon. Also, somatic embryos with two cotyledons developed a functional shoot apex with the tunica-corpus structure. In contrast, somatic embryos with one or fused cotyledon formed an abnormal shoot apex without the tunica-corpus structure or with non-dome shape in the inter-cotyledonary area. These results indicated that the variation of cotyledon in somatic embryos is closely related to procambial differentiation and shoot apical meristem development.

To study the role of PbO as the buffer layer, Pt/PZT/PbO/Si with the MFIS structure was deposited on the p-type (100) Si substrate by the r.f. magnetron sputtering with $Pb_{1.1}Zr_{0.53}Ti_{0.47}O_3$ and PbO targets. When PbO buffer layer was inserted between the PZT thin film and the Si substrate, the crystallization of the PZT thin films was considerably improved and the processing temperature was lowered. From the result of an X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) depth profile result, we could confirm that the substrate temperature for the layer of PbO affects the chemical states of the interface between the PbO buffer layer and the Si substrate, which results in the inter-diffusion of Pb. The MFIS with the PbO buffer layer show the improved electric properties including the high memory window and low leakage current density. In particular, the maximum value of the memory window is 2.0V under the applied voltage of 9V for the Pt/PZT(200 nm, $400^{\circ}C)/PbO(80 nm)/Si$ structures with the PbO buffer layer deposited at the substrate temperature of $300^{\circ}C$.

A seasonal variation of phytoplankton community in the middle-lower part of the Nakdong River was studied in four sampling stations at monthly intervals from January to December 2012. We identified 40 genera 72 species of phytoplankton. Among these, diatoms were 36 species (50.0%), green algae 20 species (27.8%), blue-green algae 9 species (12.5%) and others 7 species (9.7%), respectively. The phytoplankton standing crops were recorded a maximum of 29,640 cells/mL at the Mulgeum (St. 4) in June and a minimum of 236 cells/mL at the Goryung (St. 1) in October. Also, Standing crops were increased with proceeding from middle part to lower part. Ecological important species were Stephanodiscus hantzschii, Cyclotella meneghiniana, Synedra acus, Aulacoseira granulata, Pediastrum sp. and Microcystis aeruginosa. Seasonal succession of phytoplankton represented that Stephanodiscus hantzschii was dominant species in winter, Cyclotella meneghiniana, Synedra acus was dominant species in spring, Microcystis aeruginosa, Cyclotella meneghiniana, Fragilaria crotonensis, Synedra acus, Aulacoseria granulata was dominant species in summer, and Aulacoseria granulata, Cyclotella meneghiniana, Fragilaria crotonensis was dominant species in autumn. In the community analysis, diversity index and dominant index were higher May~July and December~February, respectively. Also, diversity index and dominant index were decreased and increased with proceeding from middle part to lower part.

While the demand for the gas system fire extinguishers increases every year, there are insufficient safety measures for assessing the extinguishing performance, such as system safety and reliability in the preparation of increasing demand, which has emerged as a social problem. One of the most critical causes of accidents occurring with the gas extinguishing system is pressure leakage from the extinguishing agent storage container. This is considered to be one of the critical factors on which the success of fire suppression depends. In this study, its safety measure was studied, Because it was deemed urgently necessary. The newly developed pressure leakage monitoring system is a system monitoring storage condition, pressure, leakage and discharge of the storage container related to agent concentration, which is one of the critical factors for fire suppression. This was developed to be applicable to the $CO_2$ and HFC-23 systems. Therefore, for structural safety analysis, the safety performance was verified by the fluid structure coupling analysis of the safety problems that may occur when the pressure leakage monitoring system is applied to the gas fire extinguisher. For analysis programs, the FloEFD program from Mentor Graphics was used for computational fluid dynamics analysis and ABAQUS from Dassault Systems was used for structural analysis. From the result of numerical analysis, the structure of $CO_2$ did not develop plastic deformation and its safety was verified. However, plastic deformation and deviation issue occurred with the HFC-23 monitoring system and therefore verified the structural safety of pressure leakage monitoring system by data obtained from redesigning and adjusting the condition of numerical interpretation three times.

Serial ultrasonographic examinations were performed on 9 pregnant Korea Jin-do dog from days 15 to 60 to determine the size of gestational structures throughout pregnancy. Gestational age was timed from the day of ovulation (Day 0), which was estimated to occur when plasma progesterone concentration was first increased above 4.0 ng/ml. Extra-fetal structures were measureable from days 17 to 49. Outer uterine diameter increased from $7.0{\pm}0.7$ ($mean{\pm}SD$)mm at day 17 to $54.0{\pm}2.2mm$ at day 49 and inner chorionic cavity diameter increased from $3.0{\pm}0.7mm$ at day 17 to $37.5{\pm}0.6mm$ at day 49. Uterine wall thickness increased from $2.8{\pm}0.4mm$ at day 17 to $8.3{\pm}0.5mm$ at day 49, placental thickness increased from $1.0{\pm}0.1mm$ at day 22 to $5.7{\pm}0.2mm$ at day 49 and length of chorionic cavity or zonary placenta increased from $5.5{\pm}1.3mm$ at day 20 to $52.3{\pm}2.2mm$ at day 49. Inner chorionic cavity diameter, outer uterine diameter and placental length each increased at a linear rate through day 37, after which time, each had a marked plateau in growth. Of the extra-fetal structures, inner chorionic cavity diameter was the most accurate for estimation of gestational age until day 37. Fetal structures were measureable from days l7 to 60. Crown-rump length, increased from $3.0{\pm}0.7mm$ at day 22 to $118.7{\pm}3.1mm$ at day 49, fetal body diameter increased from $4.0{\pm}0.7mm$ at day 25 to $55.8{\pm}1.7mm$ at day 60 and fetal head diameter increased from $4.3{\pm}0.6mm$ at day 26 to $29.8{\pm}0.8mm$ at day 60. Of the fetal structures, fetal head diameter was the most accurate for estimation of gestational age from day 37 until day 60.

Porous walkway blocks are constructed for the purpose already, but reserved water is easily consumed due to the bigger permeability than necessary. Furthermore, porous structure reduces the strength of blocks, which resulting cracking and settlements in walkways. In this study, we suggested a solution for given problems by determination for the location of minimum principal stress in walkway blocks against moving foot loads in order to design and verifying the determined location of minimum principal stress. An optimum design with a verification example for determined location of minimum principal stress have been presented in a two dimensional Block member on elastic foundation for pedestrian walkway for reserving water inside. The minimum value for sum of shear forces is found when ${\times}1$ is 58.58 mm(30% of total span, 200mm), while the minimum deformation is located at ${\times}2=80mm$(70% of total span, 200 mm). In a modified model, When moving boundary condition(walkway foot loads) is located at ${\times}1$(=0 mm), the location of minimum principal stresses is found at 168 mm( 84% of span, 200 mm), in which the stress concentration due to the foot load is modeled as two layers of distributed loads(reactions of foundation modeled as springs). Consequently, zero deformed reservoirs for rainwater on the neutral axis (${\times}2=167mm$) has been determined in the modified model with three dimensional FEM analysis verifications.

The installation of the expansion joints in a tunnel concrete lining and duct would minimize the cracking at the location of structural shape and stiffness change, differential settlement, big temperature change, and so on. However, it is difficult to determine the required spacing of the expansion joint in a tunnel concrete lining and duct quantitatively because the spacing is influenced by temperature change, structure construction condition, ground-structure interaction, and etc. Nevertheless, a highway specification (Korea Expressway Corporation, 2012) or a road design manual (Ministry of Land, Transport and Maritime Affairs, 2010) specifies that the expansion joint spacing in a tunnel concrete lining should be installed uniformly smaller than 25 m from the tunnel portals to 50 m inside of a tunnel and elsewhre 20-60 m in a tunnel (because there is no specifcation for a duct it is assumed that a duct follows the specfication of lining). This specification results in several construction and economic problems in relation with a tunnel construction. Accordingly, in order to minimize the problems, this study analyzed both domestic and foreign design standards and specifications. In addition, field test, theoretical and numerical analyses were carried out in relation to the expansion joint in a tunnel lining and duct. The purpose of this study is to reestabilish a criterion for installing the expansion joint in a tunnel concrete lining and duct.

This paper presents new type of the hybrid supply modulator for the next reconfigurable transmitters. The efficiency of the hybrid supply modulator is one of the most important performance. For enhancement the efficiency, multi-switching structure in the hybrid supply modulator is employed. Additionally, input envelope signal sensing stage is employed for implementation multi-mode operation. To compare the performance of the proposed hybrid supply modulator, the conventional hybrid supply modulator is also designed. The measured efficiency of the proposed hybrid supply modulator is 85 %/84 %/79 % for EDGE/WCDMA/LTE signals which have 384 kHz/3.84 MHz/5 MHz bandwidth, respectively. The efficiency of the proposed hybrid supply modulator is higher than the conventional hybrid supply modulator. Therefore, this structure shows good candidate for the reconfigurable transmitters.

In order to examine the anticariogenic effect after fluoride varnish was applied to sound enamel and artificial caries enamel, anterior teeth of healthy cattle were used and divided into four groups such as group 1 (sound enamel), group 2 (application of fluoride varnish to sound enamel), group 3 (artificial caries enamel) and group 4 (application of fluoride varnish to artificial caries enamel). Remineralization on the surface of enamel and changes of crystalline structure after demineralization were observed by using a field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM). Quantitative analysis of Ca and P was measured by using the energy dispersive X-ray spectrophotometer (EDS). The following conclusions were obtained: 1)Surface pattern of enamel was the roughest in group 3 due to the defects caused by porosity and microcracks. Group 4, group 1 and group 2 were followed in order; 2) It was found that pattern of crystalline structures in a group of application of fluoride varnish and a group of no application showed bigger change in artificial caries enamel than that in sound enamel. In other words, groups 4 and 1 showed a similar pattern; 3) The contents of Ca and P were higher in groups of application of fluoride varnish (group 2 and group 4) than in groups of no application of fluoride varnish (group 1 and group 3). Taken results of this study together, in the case of application of fluoride varnish, crystalline structure was changed by remineralization even in the sound enamel. In particular, porous structures showed a smooth and uniform pattern due to the recalcification in the artificial caries enamel. In addition, according to results of EDS analysis, the contents of Ca and P were increased and it had great anticariogenic effects which inhibit decalcification of sound enamel and artificial caries enamel.
