RQD is used to evaluate the degree of fracture in the rock mass and is also used as input into rock mass classification scheme, such as RMR and Q-system. However there are some drawbacks of the RQD caused by anisotropy and calculation length. Thus it is important to understand the variation of RQD in 3-D space in order to evaluate the properties of rock mass. The main purpose of this study is to reveal the distribution of RQD in the equal-angle stereo net, to investigate the effects of scanline length and joint frequency and to inquire the effect on the selection of rock mass strength parameters in the numerical analysis. Analysis has been extended to field joint survey data using same method. The results can be applied to contribute for more accurate interpretation of the results of engineering geological survey for better design and construction work.

This paper focuses on the conformal contact problem. A typical example of conformal contact is the contact between a pin and hole. In particular, this paper focuses on the condition for assuming a contact stress field to be a Hertzian pressure profile by using well-known classical solutions associated with Hertzian contact. Persson first developed the conformal contact analysis method around half a century ago, but there have been no significant improvements since then. The present research also adopted this method, but developed new solutions from the viewpoint of application to structural design. The analysis began with a comparison between Persson°Øs conformal contact stress and the Hertzian stress fields. The next step was to check the differences in the normalized stress values of both. This study used the tolerance for the difference in the peak stresses of Persson°Øs solution and the Hertz solution to validate the Hertzian assumption. This gave the range for the difference in radii of the pin and hole when the contact force and mechanical properties of the material are specified. The results showed that, at a tolerance of 5%, the Hertzian assumption is valid if half of the contact angle is less than 35°ý. In addition, the Hertzian assumption holds even for a relatively long contact length, in contrast to the general incomplete contact problem. This paper discusses these results along with other aspects of the application to the design.

The effect of a bopyrid isopod Argeia pugettensis, on the growth and reproduction of the Kuro shrimp Argis lar was investigated. A commercial caridean shrimp in the East Sea of Korea, A. lar, was sampled monthly off Pohang with a bottom trawl from July 2009 to June 2011. During the study period, 7,988 individuals were sampled. These shrimp were parasitized by a bopyrid isopod Argeia pugettensis. The overall infection rate was 3.3%, although it declined in the larger size classes. It did not change monthly. The carapace lengths of the host and parasite were positively correlated. There was a significant difference in growth between infested and non-infested shrimp. The infested shrimp also had a lower gonadosomatic index (GSI) and breeding rate. These results suggest that the parasites affected the growth and reproduction of Argis lar.

본 논문에서는 22.9kV 고압 가공 배전선로를 고속 전력선 통신을 위한 통신 채널로 사용하기 위하여 전력선 통신 주파수 $2MHz{\sim}30MHz$ 대역에 대한 특성 파라미터를 해석하였다. 먼저 고압 배전선로에 주로 사용되는 ACSR-OC 케이블에 대한 구조를 분석하고 이의 특성 파라미터로부터 분포정수와 특성 임피던스를 구하였다. 또한 등각 사상법을 이용하여 유전체가 코팅된 평행 2선식 고압 배전선로의 정전용량 및 유효유전상수를 계산하였다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 고압 배전선로의 분포정수와 특성임피던스를 구하였으며, 특성임피던스는 케이블 단면적에 따라서 $470{\ell}{\sim}530{\ell}$ 사이의 분포를 나타내었다. 특히, 특성 임피던스는 지면을 완전 전기도체로 가정할 경우에 비하여 실제 지면의 도전율과 유전상수를 고려할 때 20MHz 이하의 대역에서 보다 높은 값을 갖는 것을 확인하였다.

Feeding habits of juvenile Sillago maculata, collected from the tropical seagrass beds in Cockle Bay, Queensland, were studied. S. maculata (0.5~9.5 cm SL) was a carnivore which consumed mainly gammarid amphipods, crabs and copepods. Its diets included small quantities of polychaetes, shrimps, fishes, isopods and cumacean. S. maculata showed ontogenetic changes in feeding habits. Small individuals preyed mainly on copepods, crab larvae and gammarid amphipods. While the portion of the stomach contents attributable to polychaetes, crabs and fishes increased with increasing fish size, consumption of copepods and crab larvae decreased progressively. Gammarid amphipods were the most selected prey item for all size classes.

A new design for an ultra-wideband microstrip-to-FGCPW(Finite Ground Coplanar Waveguide) transition is presented. The proposed transition provides the electric field and impedance matching between adjacent transmission lines by ground shaping. The transition is designed on the analytical expressions of whole transitional structure. Conformal mapping is applied to obtain the characteristic impedance of FGCPW with bottom aperture within 3.3 % accuracy as compared with the EM-simulation results. As design example, the fabricated transition in back-to-back configuration provides insertion loss less than 1 dB per transition and return loss better than 10 dB for frequencies from 9 GHz to over 40 GHz.

Feeding habits of juvenile Acanthopagrus schlegeli collected from the eelgrass bed in Kwangyang Bay were studied. A. schlegeli (1~7cm SL) was a carnivore which consumed mainly amphipods (gammarid and caprellid amphipods), crabs and shrimps. Its diets included small quantities of gastropods, polychaetes, hydroids, tanaids, copepods and isopods. A. schlegeli showed ontogenetic changes in feeding habits. Small individuals preyed mainly on gammarid amphipods, gastropods and polychaetes. However, crabs and shrimps were heavily selected with increasing fish size.

In this paper, we proposed the method of the characteristic impedance and effective dielectric constant calculations of a parallel-two-wire transmission line coated with multi-layer dielectric material using conformal mapping method. First of all, we calculated the capacitance of the transmission line when coated by N layer dielectric material which has different thickness and dielectric constant and calculated the characteristic impedance and effective dielectric constant using calculated capacitances. When compared with the Maxwell 2D (made by Ansoft Corporation) simulation result calculated result was very similar to the simulation result within the four percent error range.

The purpose of this study is to improve the problems in Umbrella Arch Method, such as the oxidation, the difficulties in installation and cutting of the steel pipe. The applicability of the high strength FRP (Fiber-Reinforced-Plastic) materials composed of glass fiber as a substitute of steel pipe was investigated in this study. The results of this study show that FRP material is better than steel pipe in work performance and the durability of material except for its price. From the numerical analysis with various types of FRP, it was evaluated that the equiangular curve type is more efficient than the flat type developed abroad, and the supporting effect of FRP-grout mixture is similar to that of steel-grout mixture in results of bending strength test.

For the effective analysis of two dimensional plane problems, Treffiz finite elements and cavity elements have been proposed. These element matrix equaitons were formulated on the basis of hybrid variational principle and Treffiz function sets derived consitstently from the complex theoy of plane elasticity. In order to suggest the accuracy chatacteristics of the proposed Treffiz elements typical plane problems were analyzed and these results were compared with ones obtained by using the conveintional displacement type elements. The accuracy of the proposed elements is less sensitive to the element size and shape than the conventional displacement type elements. These elements, being able to be formed with multi-nodes, give the convenient modeling of an analytic domain. The cavity elements give the comparatively exact values of stress concentration factors of stress intensity factors and can be effectively used for the analysis of mechanical stuctures containing various cavities.
