To understand the effects of fluctuations in dam discharge due to river environments and phytoplankton communities, we monitored such environments and phytoplankton communities biweekly, from February 2001 to February 2002 and from February 2004 to February 2005, in the lower Han River (LHR), South Korea. The phytoplankton abundance during the dry season was approximately two times higher than that during the rainy season. In particular, fluctuations in diatom assemblages, which constituted over 70% of the total phytoplankton abundance, were affected severely by the changes in the discharge. When a large quantity of water in a dam was discharged into the LHR, the conductivity and the concentrations of total nitrogen (TN), total phosphorus (TP), and dissolved inorganic phosphorus (DIP) decreased rapidly, whereas the concentrations of suspended solids (SS), dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN), and dissolved silica (DSi) increased immediately. Time-delayed relationship also revealed that the dam discharge had an immediately significant negative relationship with phytoplankton abundance. On the whole, fluctuations in phytoplankton communities in the LHR were influenced much more by hydrodynamics such as dam discharge than by the availability of nutrients. Thus, the variability in these concentrations usually parallels the strength of river flow that is associated with summer rainfall, with higher values during periods of high river discharge.

본 연구에서는 도전성이 우수하고 조달이 쉬운 금속계열 산업부산물을 EMP차폐용 콘크리트 골재로 사용하기 위해 골재의 안정성 평가 및 EMP차폐 성능평가를 실시하였다. 산업부산물 골재는 전기로산화슬래그, 동제련슬래그, 페로몰디브덴을 선정하여 사용하였으며 골재의 성분 분석과 골재안정성 평가를 실시하였다. 또한 산업부산물 골재를 콘크리트 골재로 사용하여 기본 물성 평가 및 EMP 차폐 성능 평가를 실시하였다. 실험 결과 산업부산물 골재중 페로몰리브덴은 Free-CaO가 높아 골재로서의 안정성이 낮게 나타났으며 나머지 골재들은 콘크리트용 골재로 사용하기에 무방한 것으로 평가 되었다. 또한 압축강도 실험 결과 페로몰디브덴을 제외한 산업부산물 골재를 제외한 실험체는 Plain 실험체 보다 높은 압축강도를 발현하였다. EMP차폐 성능 평가 결과 EMP 차폐성능이 높은 산업부산물 골재는 전기로산화슬래그, 동제련슬래그 이며 골재의 평균입경이 작거나 균일하게 분포되면 차폐성능은 증가할 것으로 사료된다.

Rayon 분리막에 poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO)를 코팅하고 potassium polyacrylate (PAAK)-KOH 하이드로겔 전해질을 사용하여 기계적 강도 및 전기화학적 성질을 시험하였고, 이를 활성탄 수퍼커패시터에 적용하여 커패시터 특성을 조사하였다. PEO 코팅량의 증가에 따라 기계적 강도는 증가하였으며, PEO 함량을 5 wt.% 이하로 유지하면 이온전도도가 $10^{-2}S\;cm^{-1}$ 이상을 유지하여 실제 커패시터에의 활용이 가능하였다. 결과적으로 Rayon/PEO 분리막과 PAAK/KOH 전해질을 적용한 활성탄 수퍼커패시터는 $1000mV\;s^{-1}$의 높은 스캔속도에서도 비축적용량이 1000 사이클까지 안정하게 나타나는데, 이는 PEO 코팅이 Rayon의 장섬유 필라멘트간 엉킴점을 고정시켜 고출력 안정성을 얻을 수 있기 때문이다.

In general, the three major oral functions of edentulous patients-mastication, phonation, esthetics-can be rehabilitated by the complete dentures, and both the resin based complete denture and the metal based complete denture are commonly used by many clinicians today. For the sake of many advantages such as the excellent thermal conductivity, low volumetric change, high strength, low risk of fracture and the better patient's adaptation, the metal based complete dentures are indicated to the several cases. But, there are common failures of these type of dentures mainly by the fracture or the debonding between the resin structures and the metal frameworks which is caused by the discrepancies of the flexural strength and the coefficient of thermal expansion. This is aggravated by the water contamination of the interface when exposed to the oral environment and results in the failure of complete denture treatment. So, the purpose of this study is to compare the bond strength and the fracture patterns of the gold alloy based and the Co-Cr alloy based complete dentures using the PMMA resins and the 4-META adhesive resins. The results of this study were as follows. 1. Both to the PMMA resin and the 4-META resin, the flexural bond strength of gold alloy is lower than that of Co-Cr alloy(P<0.05) 2. To the Co-Cr alloy, the bond strength of the 4-META resin is significantly higher than that of PMMA resin(P<0.05). 3. The flexural strength of the group with the mechanical retention form is significantly higher than that of the group without retention form(P<0.05). 4. Comparing with the other groups, the fracture patterns of the group 3 are quite different from the group 1,2,5.

압밀시험시 시료의 두께에 대한 직정의 비율이 크면 일반적으로 측면마찰은 없다고 간주된다. 그러나, 시료의 두께가 커질수록 측면 마찰의 영향은 무시할 수 없게 된다. 본 연구에서는 정규압밀된 카올리나이트 슬러리의 압밀시험시 측면마찰의 영향을 조사하였다. 압밀시험을 통해 압밀시험곡선, 과잉간극수압, 압밀-간극비, 투수계수-간극비 관계를 측정하였고, 압밀-간극비 관계에 있어 측면마찰의 영향을 고려하기 위해 Taylor(1942)가 제안한 식을 적용하였다. 측정된 압밀시험곡선과 과잉간극수압에 대해 수치해석 결과와 비교 분석을 통해 측면 마찰이 압밀시험에 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. 그 결과, 측면 마찰의 영향을 고려한 수치해석 결과는 측면 마찰을 무시한 결과보다 측정값에 근사한 것으로 나타났으며, 측면 마찰은 압밀-간극비 관계 뿐만 아니라 압밀시간에도 영향을 주는 요인이라는 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

$ZrB_2$-SiC ceramics are fabricated via hot pressing with different ratios of submicron or nano-sized SiC in a $ZrB_2$-20 vol%SiC system, in order to examine the effect of the SiC size ratio on the microstructures and physical properties, such as thermal conductivity, hardness, and flexural strength, of $ZrB_2$-SiC ceramics. Five different $ZrB_2$-SiC ceramics ($ZrB_2$-20 vol%[(1-x)SiC + xnanoSiC] where x = 0.0, 0.2, 0.5, 0.8, 1.0) are prepared in this study. The mean SiC particle sizes in the sintered bodies are highly dependent on the ratio of nano-sized SiC. The thermal conductivities of the $ZrB_2$-SiC ceramics increase with the ratio of nano-sized SiC, which is consistent with the percolation behavior. In addition, the $ZrB_2$-SiC ceramics with smaller mean SiC particle sizes exhibit enhanced mechanical properties, such as hardness and flexural strength, which can be explained using the Hall-Petch relation.

Bentonite-based grouting has been popularly used to seal a borehole installed for a closed-loop vertical ground heat exchanger in a geothermal heat pump system (GHP) because its high swelling potential. However, if the bentonite-based grouting is conducted in coastal areas, the salinity of groundwater changes in the mineral fabric of bentontie. In order words, an increase of cation concentration in groundwater leads to a reduction in the diffuse double-layer thickness in the bentonite mineral structure, and thus the volume of bentointe-based grouts will decrease proportional to the salinity of groundwater. In this paper, the effect of salinity (i.e., NaCl 0.5M, 0.25M, and 0.1M) on the change of swelling potential for bentonite-based grouts has been quantitatively evaluated for seven bentonite grouts from different product sources. In addition, in case of using addictives such as a silica sand to increase the thermal conductivity of bentonite-based grouts, the possibility of particle segregation has been studied considering the viscosity of grouts and salinity of groundwater.

In this study, the temporal changes in the chemical characteristics of soil in a reclaimed coastal area, the Shihwa Industrial Complex in the West Coast in Kyung-Gi Province, and the correlations between chemical components were investigated to provide useful information needed for introducing vegetation in the area. The sites were filled with mountain forest soils from 1987 to 1996, and developed into various landuses such as neighbourhood parks, children's parks, buffer greens, pedestrian roads and others. The correlation analyses shoed that pH, organic matter(OM) and available P205 had not been closely related to other chemical parameters such as various cations electro-conductivity(EC) and cation exchange capacity(CEC): especially, pH showed a very low correlation with other factors. The EC turned out to have positive relationships with cations, especially with Na+ ions. There seemed to be fairly good correlations between cations except Ca++ ion. The relation between cations and OM was inconclusive possible because the OM contents in the soils were too low for the analysis. The OM seemed to increase slowly with time and the EC decreased slowly. The salinity and CEC in the original soils decreased rapidly possibly because of leaching. It is believed that there were some external disturbances such as rainfall which had affected the soil properties. The soils sampled in dry season showed a very high salinity. From this it is possible to assume that the rainfall would affect the sol properties significantly. So it is necessary to continue further studies to investigate the impacts of external disturbances such as rainfall on vertical soil profile and temporal variations as well as to delineate correlations between parameters with external disturbances controlled.

The purpose of this paper is to discuss the fabrication of $\beta$-PVDF($\beta$-Polyvinylidene fluoride, ${\beta}-PVF_2$) organic thin films using the vapor deposition method. Vapor deposition was performed under the following conditions: the temperature of evaporator, the applied electric field, and the pressure of reaction chamber were $270^{\circ}C$, 142.4 kV/cm, and $2.0{\times}10^{-5}\;Torr$, respectively. The molecular structure of the evaporated organic thin films were evaluated by a FT-IR. The results showed that the characteristic absorption peaks of $\beta$-form crystal increase from 72% to 95.5% with an increase in the substrate temperature. In the analysis of the electric characteristics, the abnormal increases in the relative dielectric constant and the dielectric loss factor in the regions of low frequency and high temperature are known to be caused by inclusion of impurity carriers in the PVDF organic thin films. In order to analyze quantitatively the abnormalities in the conductivity mechanism caused by ionic impurities, the product of the ion density and the mobility that affect the electrical property in polymeric insulators is analyzed. In the case of a specimen produced by varying the substrate temperature from $30^{\circ}C$ to $105^{\circ}C$, the product of mobility and the ion density decreased from $4.626{\times}10^8$ to $8.47{\times}10^7/V{\cdot}cm{\cdot}s$. This result suggests that the higher the substrate temperature is maintained, the better excluded the impurities are, and the more electrically stable material can be obtained.
