Considering the applicability of Kuz-Ram model, which has been used extensively for predicting rock fragmentation size distribution by blasting, to domestic open-pit limestone mine, a total of 21 blasting tests have been executed at an open-pit limestone mine in eastern Gangwon of South Korea. A comparative analysis of field measured value and Kuz-Ram predicted value showed that there are a considerable amount of error in the predicted values regardless of application of various correction parameters for rock factor and uniformity factor; up to 56.45% in mean fragmentation size and 37.52% in uniformity index. Also the problem of applying different correction parameters has been derived even though a similar blasting pattern has been adopted for a same blasting bench. The authors therefore suggest that Kuz-Ram model needs to be modified for a proper application to domestic open-pit limestone mine.

In this study, liquefaction evaluation was performed by applying liquefaction evaluation criteria commonly applied in Korea and recently revised evaluation criteria to five sites where liquefaction was observed or potential for liquefaction was high during the 2017 Pohang earthquake. The purpose of this study is to examine the validity of the revised domestic liquefaction evaluation criteria by comparing and reviewing the results of the theoretical liquefaction evaluation with the actual liquefaction occurrence at the sites. For the analysis of earthquakes for the evaluation of the liquefaction, the actual Pohang earthquake wave, as well as the waves that was conventionally used in Korea, was used. The magnitude of the peak ground acceleration of analysis earthquake varied from 0.097 g to 0.2713 g. From the analysis results, the validity of the liquefaction evaluation criteria presented in the 2016 Foundation Design Criteria, which has been commonly applied in Korea, was evaluated. From the evaluation results, the improvement of the existing criteria was suggested, and the suitability of revised items of liquefaction evaluation criteria presented in the Seismic Design General established in 2018 was confirmed.

To estimate seismic source and soil-structure interaction more reliably, site amplification characteristics should be considered. Among the various estimation methods, we used Nakamura's method (1989) to estimate site amplification. This method was originally applied to background noise; however, it has recently been successfully applied to S-wave and Coda-wave energy, and is applied to S-waves in the present study. We used more than 180 observed ground motions from 23 macro-earthquakes and then analyzed site amplification characteristics at eight seismic stations. Each station showed characteristics of site amplification properties in the low-, high- and resonance-frequency ranges. Comparison of the present results with those of other studies provide successful information regarding the dynamic amplification of domestic site characteristics and site classification.

Inappropriate applications of bibliometric approach and misinterpretation on the analysis in research evaluation have been found and recognized nationally and internationally as the use of the approach has been rapidly adopted in various sectors in research evaluation systems and research funding agencies. The flood of misuse led to several numbers of declarations and statements on appropriate research evaluation, including Leiden Manifesto, DORA, IEEE Statement, etc. The similar recommendations from five different declarations, Leiden Manifest, IEEE Statement, DORA, Institut de France, and Thomson Reuters White paper were reviewed and meta-analyzed in this study and it is revealed that most of them emphasize evaluation on quality in various aspects with multiple indicators. Research evaluation with assessing multiple aspects of individual research based on the understandings of its purpose and pertinent subject area was revealed as being mostly advised in the declarations, and this recommendation can be regarded as being mostly requested in national research evaluation system. For future study, interviews with relevant stakeholders of national research evaluation system in order to explore its application are needed to confirm the findings of this review.

To reduce the amount of seismic damage, several design codes are being improved considering the earthquake resistant systems, and many researches are being conducted to develop the earthquake damage evaluation techniques. This study develops the Korean seismic fragility function using the modified HAZUS method applicable to PSC-I girder bridges in Korea. The major coefficients are modified considering the difference between the seismic design levels of America and Korea. Seismic fragility function of the PSC-I girder bridge (one of the standard bridge types in Korea) is evaluated using two methods: numerical analysis and modified HAZUS method. The main coefficients are obtained about 70% of the proposed values in HAZUS. It is found that the seismic fragility function obtained using the modified HAZUS method closes to the fragility function obtained by conventional numerical analysis method.

In the interior lighting, usually we refer to TAL and general lighting. The last one is that we generally adopt it in the interior lighting conditions. Here, glare is most important factor of them, especially in working place using VDT. Reference or development of estimation on glare has been studied in CIE, IESNA etc. and these of glare regulations now are applied differently in the interior lighting design or estimation on glare. But we have no glare regulation in detail, of course except G classification, which has limit of itself, so in my case it is impossible to apply in the interior lighting. On this paper, with some of main glare regulations in the world and our conditions in the interior lighting which are selected carefully, in an actual state it has been estimated So, it intended to blow which one is most suitable or what factors are considered of them, also show glare index which are appropriate to our interior lighting.

Suitable climate condition is essential for stable growth of crops which directly leads to an increase in crop production. Preceding domestic researches mostly used crop models to predict grain or crop yield in relation to climate change. However, the use of various models and input data based on foreign background lowered the reliability for result. Therefore in this study, we evaluated domestic applicability by comparing and analyzing various crop models developed abroad. In addition, we selected models based on the possibility of acquiring input data and suggested domestic applicability.

Road design safety assessment by existing tools and methods have normally been examined by expert judgements using design documents and on-site inspections. The existing methods, however, have two main problems such as insufficiency of objectiveness and inability to measure effects of accident countermeasures. This paper studies ways to develop a road safety assessment system through reviewing the IHSDM developed in USA. The crash prediction module of IHSDM calculate accident frequency and rate of roadway segments using accident prediction models and accident modification factors for safety evaluation. The methodology of evaluation and development of accident modification factors somewhat overcome the problems of the existing methods. In spite of these advantages, IHSDM could not relevantly reflect characteristics of domestic rural roadways since it overestimate the number of accidents and rate of korean rural roadways. Especially, IHSDM may not evaluate or consider land use patterns of Korean roadways, and futhermore, original environment on base conditions used to develop IHSDM may not be different from ours. The user requirements being developed for a road safety assessment system for Korean roadways include enhanced flexibility and diversity of data input-output processes.
