  • This study is done in order to find the solutions that we are facing on social and ecological crisis around the world. The basic survey was done on college students who will mostly become city residents in the future. Students collect information about the amount of the waste and the way of disposition for a week. The analysis how they produce and dispose waste will show what influence their behavioral decisions. The findings are first, students are very conscious of the importance of environmental conservation. But they value little and they don't have proper knowledge. Second, sex was the decisive factor, women tend to behave eco-friendly. But the more they are conscious about environment, the less they behave eco-friendly. The more they spend allowances, the less they are conscious of environment. Third, they recycle waste at home during the weekend, but not during weekdays at school because there is no recycling bin or they are not economically responsible.

  • The use of recycled aggregate concrete for the purpose of environmental and resource conservation has gained increasing interest in construction engineering. Nevertheless, few studies have reported on the bonding performance of the bars in recycled aggregate concrete after exposed to high temperatures. In this paper, 72 pull-out specimens and 36 cubic specimens with different recycled coarse aggregate content (i.e., 0%, 50%,100%) were cast to evaluate the bond behavior between recycled aggregate concrete and steel bar after various temperatures ($20^{\circ}C$, $200^{\circ}C$, $400^{\circ}C$, $600^{\circ}C$). The results show that the recycled aggregate concrete pull-out specimens exhibited similar bond stress-slip curves at both ambient and high temperature. The bond strength declined gradually with the increase of the temperature. On the basis of a regression analysis of the experimental data, a revised bond strength mode and peak slip ratios relationship model were proposed to predict the post-heating bond-slip behavior between recycled aggregate concrete and steel bar.

  • Background: Bamboo forests provides benefits for nature and the welfare of the people of Turen in Malang Regency and Sumbermujur in Lumajang Regency. They interact with the forest to live through the development of forest potential based on local wisdom. This is believed to prevent various adverse impacts on the forest. Local wisdom is related to beliefs or/and taboos, ethics and rules, techniques and technology, as well as forest/ land management traditions carried out by the community in building, managing forests, and Turen springs in Malang Regency and Sumbermujur in Lumajang Regency. Therefore, it is important to study the potential of bamboo forests in Turen and Sumbermujur for ecotourism, the development of bamboo forest ecotourism in Turen and Sumbermujur based on local wisdom, and the potential of bamboo forests in Turen and Sumbermujur in sustainable spring conservation. Results: Bamboo forest ecotourism has become an attractive tourist attraction. It is also beneficial for environmental conservation and the welfare of the surrounding community. The potential of bamboo forests in ecotourism development consists of various types of old bamboo that are fertile which offer environmentally friendly tourism activities by prioritizing aspects of nature conservation and socio-cultural empowerment of the local community. This cannot be separated from the belief that bamboo has supernatural powers (as a protector), so they do not dare to take or damage the existing bamboo. This behavior has a positive impact on springs that are still sustainable. Conclusions: Therefore, the charm of the bamboo forest is a potential that can be developed through ecotourism based on local wisdom. The development of bamboo forest ecotourism based on local wisdom is able to meet the living needs of the surrounding community.

  • The Nannophya species in Korea was thought to consist of only Nannophya pygmaea. Previous studies on the species, including life history and development, conservation and restoration, habitat characteristics, genetic studies, distribution, behavior, and taxonomy have been conducted. However, a new Nannophya species, Nannophya koreana, was recently discovered in Korea. Moreover, this new species was found to inhabit both Korea and Japan. Thus, the previous studies should be reevaluated in relation to the new species, Nannophya koreana, and the latter should be treated as an endangered species worldwide given the current population instability.

  • 야생동물의 신체부위의 절단은 야생에서 활동에 영향을 미칠 수 있으며, 특히 겨울철 동면기간에 새끼를 출산하는 반달가슴곰의 경우 겨울철 생존과 양육활동에 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 지난 2017년 지리산국립공원에 서식하는 반달가슴곰이 올무에 걸려 오른쪽 앞발 절단 수술을 하여 같은 해에 야생에 방사되어 2개체의 새끼를 출산하였다. 이 개체와 함께 같은 해에 출산한 암컷 5마리의 출산 및 양육기간 동안 계절별로 행동권을 분석한 결과, 활동 시기에는 다른 개체들에 비해 넓은 행동권과 많은 이동거리를 나타냈다. 이는 신체장애로 인한 먹이 활동과 새끼 양육에 따른 영향으로 추정된다. 다른 개체들에 비해 불리한 환경에서 자라난 반달가슴곰 새끼가 현재는 문제를 일으키지 않지만 지속적인 모니터링을 통해서 어미의 양육 학습의 성공여부를 파악할 수 있을 것이다. 이 연구결과는 여러 관점에서의 사람과의 갈등에 대한 장기적인 관리 방향을 설정하고 계획을 수립하는 데 활용될 수 있을 것이라 판단된다.

  • 본 연구의 목적은 토석류 발생 가능성이 높은 산지에 소단을 설치하였을 경우 산지 하류에서의 토석류의 거동과 메카니즘을 측정하는 것이다. 수치모델은 질량보존 및 운동량 보존에 관한 방정식에 기초하여 유한차분법을 이용하여 수행되었다. 토석류 거동을 측정하기 위하여 3가지 형태의 소단을 갖는 사면과 직선 사면에서의 토석류 변화를 비교하였다. 우선 하류단에서 소단폭의 길이 변화에 따른 직선 사면과 소단을 갖는 사면에 대한 유량과 토사체적 농도를 조사하였고, 공급유량 변화에 따른 소단을 갖는 사면에서의 유량과 토사체적 농도를 조사하였다. 소단을 갖는 수로에서는 소단폭의 길이가 길어질수록 소단으로 인해 토석류가 저유량 형태로 나타났으며, 고유량의 요동분포의 지속시간이 줄어들었다. 이는 소단이 토석류를 지연시키는 데 효과적인 것을 발견하였다. RMS비 비교 결과 소단을 갖는 사면이 직선 사면보다 유량이 적게 나타난 것을 확인하였다. 토사체적농도의 경우 소단폭의 길이가 길어질수록 변곡점이 나타나지 않고 완만한 형태의 그래프를 나타냈으다. 또한, 저농도의 토사와 물이 혼합되어 하류부로 유하하기 때문에 하류부에서의 토석류에 의한 피해를 저감시키는 데 효과가 있었다. 본 연구의 결과는 토석류 재해 예측 및 다양한 대책을 세우는 데 좋은 정보를 제공할 것이다.

  • 클링커 대신 고로슬래그, 폐인산석고, 폐석회 등의 산업 부산물을 이용하여 비소성시멘트를 제조하면 산업부산물 재활용, 클링커 제조를 위한 에너지 감소, $CO_2$저감으로 인한 환경오염문제 및 생산원가 저감 등의 장점이 있다. 이러한 이유로 본 연구에서는 비소성 시멘트 콘크리트의 역학적 거동실험을 수행하여 비소성 시멘트 콘크리트의 탄성계수, 응력-변형률 관계를 제안하였다. 또한 철근비, 압축강도를 변수로 9개의 구조 시험체를 제작하였으며, 그 실험 결과 비소성 시멘트 콘크리트의 휨 및 전단 거동 경향은 일반 콘크리트 부재와 크게 차이나지 않는 것으로 나타났다.

  • Green consumption refers to a variety of activities including use and purchase of eco-friendly products and services and disposing of products in an eco-friendly manner. The goal of this research was to evaluate the effects of a green consumption education and awareness program offered to young children in a university-sponsored daycare. The education and awareness program was designed to improve young children's knowledge and behaviors toward the environment through green consumption education. The program was presented to 22 5-year old children in 15-20 minutes sessions, once a week for 4 weeks. Evaluation of the program was carried out through individual interviews with the children and their mothers. Upon the completion of the green consumption education program, there were noticeable changes in children's knowledge and behavior toward the environment. Mothers of participating children reported that children's environmental behaviors changed significantly, displaying a stronger green consumption attitude. This study suggests that environmental educational program during early childhood educational is an effective way of improving children's perceptions of environmental and conservation practices.

  • 충격하중을 받는 구조물은 초고압에서 부터 저압까지 다양한 압력을 짧은 시간에 경험하게 된다. 따라서 이들 구조물을 해석하기 위해서는 실제 물체의 재료특성을 표현할 수 있는 구성 법칙(constitutive law)이 필요하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 압력 부종속모델(pressure independent model)인 Von-Mises 모델과 압력 종속모델(pressure dependent model)인 Drucker-Prager 모델을 사용하여 충격과 폭발 현상시 발생하는 응력파의 전파과정(propagation process)을 재료특성에 따라 비교 분석하였다. 응력파의 전파과정을 연구하기 위한 지배 방정식(governing equation)으로서는 물체에 종속되어 있는 라그란지안 좌표계(lagrangian coordinate system)로 표현된 운동량과 질량보존(conservation of momentum and mass)법칙을 사용하였으며 또한 충격전면(shock front)에 연속성을 부여하기 위해 인공점성(artificial viscosity)을 운동량 보존식에 첨가하였다. 주요 방정식을 풀기 위한 수치해석법으로는 시간과 공간 좌표계로 구성된 유한차분법(finite difference method)을 사용하였으며 소성변형률을 구하기 위한 소성이론으로서는 Associated normality flow rule을 사용하였다.

  • The RNA interference (RNAi) has been considered as an important genetic tool and applied to develop a new living modified (LM) crop trait which is an improvement of nutrient quality or pest management. The RNAi of DvSnf7 has been used for resistance to LM maize and the Western Corn Rootworm which is a major agricultural pest for the US Corn Belt. Most of the environmental risk assessments (ERA) of double strand RNA (dsRNA) have been performed using in vitro transcript products, and not in vivo expressed product. A large amount of dsRNA was required for the acute toxicity assay of water fleas. Therefore development of massive dsRNA purification techniques is critical. Daphnia, a freshwater microcrustacean, is a model organism for studying cellular and molecular mechanism involved in life history traits and ecotoxicology. In this study, we established the massive dsRNA purification method using Escherichia coli and implemented acute toxicity assays to Daphnia magna. As a result, the present RNase A and DNase I, dsRNA was efficiently purified without any special techniques or equipment. Even though purified dsRNA existed during the acute toxicity test, lethality or abnormal behavior were not observed in D. magna. These results indicated that GFP and DvSnf7 dsRNA were not significantly affected to D. magna due to their lack of sequence matching in its genome. The purification method of dsRNA and the acute toxicity assay of water fleas using purified dsRNA would be suitable for the toxicological studies of LMOs to aquatic non-target organisms.
