Based on the field measuring data obtained from seven excavation sections in Inchon International Airport Project, the horizontal displacement of sheet piling walls supported by anchors and the lateral earth pressure acting on sheet piling walls was investigated in soft ground. The proposed diagram of lateral earth pressure is a rectangular form, and the maximum earth pressure corresponds to $0.6\gamma H$. The maximum earth pressure is similar to the empirical earth pressure proposed by NAVFAC(1982). The quantitative safe criterion of sheet piling walls with struts is established from the relationships between increasing velocity of maximum horizontal displacement and stability number in excavated ground. If the velocity of maximum horizontal displacement shows lower than 1mm per day, the sheet piling walls exist under stable state. When the velocity of maximum horizontal displacement becomes more than 1mm and less than 2mm per day, excavation works should be observed with caution. Also, when the velocity of maximum horizontal displacement becomes more than 2mm per day, appropriate remediations and reinforcements are applied to sheet piling walls.

Numerous studies have been reported on the movement of the jaw during chewing. However, there is still much controversy. The purposes of this study were to observe the jaw movement during mastication and to provide the information in prosthodontic treatment and diagnosis of temporomandibular disorder. The author analyzed the time and characteristics of the masticatory movement during chewing using mandibular kinesiograph in 24 subjects, 17 males 7 females, age of 22-27 without orofacial problems. The obtained results were as follows: The duration of single chewing cycle was $515{\pm}87msec.$. Comparing the three phases of the chewing cycle (opening, closing, centric pause), the closing phase had the longest duration, and the centric pause had the shortest duration. The maximal laterotrusive movement of the mandible druing chewing was $3.5{\pm}1mm$. The maximal mediotrusive movement of the mandible during chewing was $1.0{\pm}0.7mm$. The maximal vertical velocity of the mandible during chewing was $120{\pm}28mm/sec.$ in opening phase, and $109{\pm}21mm/sec.$ in closing phase.

In this paper, the displacement and stress of pile foundation constructed in the soft cohesive soils were measured and investigated at each construction phase. The piles belongs to compressive stress then extension due to lateral flow of soft soils. Battered piles showed different stress state according to construction direction. The lateral displacements of piles radically occurred at the embankment phase.

Load tests for fourteen small-scale foundation models combined with geotextile, sand mat and rigid mat were conducted to study the effect of geotextile(G/T), sand mat(S/M), and foundation types on deformation of foundation soils. In addition, the experimental results were compared with those obtained from numerical analysis using a software program. The main conclusions were summarized as follows: 1. The restraint effect on G/T is more outstanding on the lateral displacement than on the vertical one. 2. The single use of S/M has better effect on the restraint of vertical displacement than lateral one. 3. The use of both S/M and G/T is required for the restraint of lateral and vertical displacement. 4. Multi-layered foundation with large rigidity shows similar tendency to that of foundation reinforced with S/M and G/T.

When unsymmetrical surcharge is worked on polluted soft soils, large plastic shearing deformation such as settlements, lateral displacement, upheavals and shearing failure occured in the soils and they have often done considerable damages to the soils and structures. Accordingly, this study conducts laboratory pilots test to investigate the determination method of lateral flow pressure of polluted soft soils by comparing it to existing equations. The model test is performed that a model stock device is made and polluted soils are filled in a container which fires the soils. Then the displacement is observed as surcharge load is increased by regular intervals at untrained condition. The result shows that test the lateral flow pressure is adequately calculated by the equation (P=K$_{0}$YH) and the maximum value of lateral flow pressure Is found near 0.3H of layer thickness(H) and is higher to ground surface than synthesis pattern, Poulos distribution pattern and soft clay soils(CL, CH) which is not polluted.

When an embankment is constructed on soft clay ground, the lateral displacement generally called as lateral flow is generated in the foundation ground. It strongly affects stabilities of structures, such as foundation piles and underground pipes, in and on the foundation ground. The lateral earth pressure induced by the lateral flow is influenced by the magnitude and construction speed of embankment, the geometric conditions and geotechnical characteristics of the embankment, and the foundation ground, and so on. Accurate methods for estimating the lateral earth pressure have not ever been established because the lateral flow of a foundation ground shows very complicated behavior, which is caused by the interaction of shear deformation and volumetric deformation. In this paper, a series of model tests were carried out in order to clarify effects of construction speed of an embankment on the lateral earth pressure in a foundation ground were design. It was found that the magnitude and the distribution of the lateral earth pressure and its change with time are dependent on the construction speed of the embankment. It was found that a mechanism for the lateral earth pressure was generated by excess pore water pressure due to negative dilatancy induced by shear deformation under the different conditions of construction speeds of embankments.

Various numerical models for predicting wave deformation have been proposed. Among them a time-dependent mild-slope equation based on the line discharges and surface-elevation changes has been widely used in the wave fields with reflective waves. If applying this model to the case of obliquely-incident waves, not only the open-sea boundary but also one of the lateral boundaries should be treated as incident boundaries. In this study, Maruyama and Kajima (1985), Copeland (1985) and Ohnaka and Watanabe (1987)'s method are reviewed and the characteristics of these methods are analyzed using e normalized wave heights, wave angels and phases obtained from the numerical experiments. It is shown that Ohnaka and Watanabe(1987)'s method provides the most adequate driving boundary is the most suitable in e wave field with a general bottom slope.

To investigate the characteristics of shear strength and soil deformation in soft grounds, in which various vertical drains were placed, two hundreds field monitoring data of embankments performed in thirteen road construction sites at west and south coastal areas of the Korean Peninsula were collected. At first, the relationship between settlement and lateral displacement was investigated into three stages, in which embankment construction works were divided into initial filling stage, final filling stage and stage after complete filling. And then, the relationship of surcharge pressures and embankment heights with undrained shear strength of soft grounds were investigated. The investigation on settlement and lateral displacement illustrated that the increment of lateral flow to the increment of settlement was low during initial filling stage, but increased gradually with filling and showed largest during final filling stage. After complete filling, the lateral displacement was converged, even though the settlement was increased continuously. Therefore, most of lateral flow was occurred during embankment filling. The ratio of the lateral displacement increment to the settlement increment was 20% for initial filling stage, which coincided with the one presented by Tavenas et al.(1979), but became 50% for final filling stage, which was half of the one presented by Tavenas et al.(1979). However, the ratio reduced to 1% to 9%, which was quite lower than the one presented by Tavenas et al.(1979). Shear deformations, even shear failures, were predicted in soft grounds under initial undrained shear strength, since the design heights of embankments were higher than the yield height in all the sites. However, embankment construction would be possible since the yield height became higher than the design height due to improvement of shear strength of soft grounds with application of the vertical drains. In order to perform safely embankments for road constructions, the embankment loads should be designed not to be exceed 5.14 times the initial undrained shear strength of soft grounds and to be less than 3.0 times the undrained shear strength improved with application of vertical drains in soft grounds.

The construction on these flimsy ground, activation of unsymmetrical surcharges, can often cause of the embankment road lateral flow or the destruction of the activities. In this study, the stability of the abutment pile foundation installed on soft ground and its behavior has been evaluated. The behavior of the abutment pile foundation under lateral flow was studied by verifying the behavior and reinforcement effects of the abutment pile foundation of previous studies about horizontal loads acting on the pile due to the lateral flow of the ground by performing finite element analysis. As a result of the consolidation analyses, the undrained cohesion or the strength of the soft ground, was increased by about 1.1 to 1.8 times by the increase in the strength of the soft ground according to the degree of consolidation. It is deemed reasonable to use 3.8 cm of the allowable displacement both economically and constructively, but considering the importance of the structure and the uncertainty of the ground, measurement shall be carried out during construction and thorough safety management of the lateral flow should be done.

This study was intended to perform the relationships between mandibualr lateral deviation in facial asymmetry patients and morphology of the cranial vault. In 30 patients(males 14, female 16) using submento-vertical cephalograms that were taken in the pre-operaticve state and posteroanterioir cephalograms that were taken in centric occlusion before, immediate and long term after surgery. 1. Mean mandibular deviation was about $-3.12^{\circ}$and mean of absolute measurement was about $2.50^{\circ}$on the submento-vertical cephalograms. 2. On the submento-vertical cephalograms, there was no significant difference between non-deviation and deviation side but it had tendency that deviation side was larger than non-deviation side on the frontal portion of cranium(Y10 to Y6) and deviation side was smaller than non-deviation on the temporal portion of cranium(Y5, Y-1 to Y-5). 3. Mean mandibular deviation was about $1.40^{\circ}$and mean of absolute measurement was about $3.95^{\circ}$on the posteroanterioir cephalograms. 4. There was statistical significance on the influence of surgical change(PT2A-PT1A) to the relapse(PTLA-PT2A)(p<0.05). The more increasing of the change, the more relapse on the posteroanterioir cephalograms. 5. There was no statistical significance on the influence of degree of mandibular deviation to morphology of the cranium on the submento-vertical cephalograms. But it had tendency that the more mandibular deviation, the larger the non-deviation side on the anterior cranium and deviation side on the posterior cranium(p>0.05). 6. There was statistical significance on the influence of the degree of mandibular deviation on the posteroanterioir cephalograms to the difference between non-deviation and deviation side. The more increasing of mandibular deviation, the larger the non-deviation side on the Y4 to Y-6(p<0.05). 7. There was no statistical significance on the influence of difference between non-deviation and deviation side to the relapse on the posteroanterioir cephalograms. But it had tendency that the more increasing of the differece between non-deviation and deviation side, the more increasing the relapse on temporal of cranium.
