Although various fast and simple, testing devices have been developed in many countries such as the U.S, Japan, and European countries, these testing devices are not commonly used in Korea. In this study, compaction fur the field density test was carried out with a hand-guided vibrating roller. The results of the field density test were compared with those of the new testing devices such as the geogauge, soil impact hammer(CASPFOL), light falling weight deflectometer(LFWD), dynamic cone penetration(DCP). Regression analyses were conducted with the data from new testing devices. The analysis results showed that the correlation coefficients were high in the range of $70{\sim}95%$.

This study aims to suggest the detailed evaluation criteria based on performances for rock slopes. Using the previous research result, final evaluation items are proposed considering characteristics and similarities of each evaluation item. Weight for each evaluation item is deducted using AHP method, verification for suggested evaluation criteria is conducted based on correlation analysis. The research results as follows. All evaluation items have a high statistical correlation with final evaluation result(safety rating). Especially, items of the "rockfall", "ground deformation", "discontinuity characteristic", "instable lithology" were shown the highest in relative correlation coefficient(R), It is judged that items and weight presented in this study well reflect characteristics of rock slopes.

In this paper, the applicability to the Korean rock condition of using the deformation moduli based on Rock Mass Rating (RMR) and Pressuremeter Test (PMT) is evaluated. The correlations among deformation moduli and various rock properties were also analyzed. It appears that the existing correlations using RMR overestimate the deformation moduli and wide variation was found between predicted moduli using these correlations and measured values. As for the correlations among the deformation moduli and various rock properties, Rock Quality Designation (RQD) and unconfined compressive strength (UCS) were found to correlate to deformation moduli reasonably well, but joint spacing and joint conditions appear to correlate poorly to RQD and UCS. Additionally, groundwater can not be correlated with the modulus values. While the depth has very little contribution to deformation modulus, it should be factored in the simple regression analyses with various rock mass properties, especially with the correlations made with UCS, RQD etc. With the deficiencies of these correlations, more in depth analysis techniques such as multivariate correlations may be to reliably estimate deformation modulus of rock mass.

To evaluate the storage characteristics of Korean soups for the utilization of the Ready-Prepared Foodservice System, Yukkaejang(spicy beef and vegetable soup), Sagol-woogeojitang (bone soup with young cabbage), Kalbitang(beef short-ribs soup) and Seolleongtang(beef and bone soup) were prepared and their physico-chemical characteristics were investigated according to storage time and temperature$(4^{\circ}\;to\;20^{\circ}C)$ through analysis of pH, TBA values, Hunter color values, microbial counts, and sensory evaluation. No significant difference in pH was shown among the 4 kinds of soup while TBA values were significantly increased with storage time and temperature. Hunter color values(L, a and b values) of the Korean soups were significantly increased except Yukkaejang. In the sensory evaluation, appearance, color, flavor, taste, texture and overall acceptability of the soups decreased significantly with increasing storage time and temperature. Through correlation analysis between quality factors of treatments stored at $4^{\circ}$, the overall acceptability in Yukkaejang and Seolleongtang showed significant positive correlation with appearance, color, flavor and texture. The evaluated shelf-life of all four Korean soups was within 3 days at $10^{\circ}$, suggesting that Korean soups are applicable to ready-prepared foodservice system.

There have been various studies to find out the correlation between subjective and objective evaluation ride comfort in vehicle. To be proper, subjective evaluation considers the signal pattern of vibration generated by vehicle. In this study, driving test is carried out to extract the correlation between subjective evaluation by subjects and vibration signals measured on the seat when a test vehicle is passing over test bumpers, which have two sorts of width change and height change respectively. A unique reference bumper is used to be compared with the relative comfort of test bumpers.

백판지 면성은 표면 백색도의 변이, 불투명도의 변이, 광택도, 거치름도, 표면 지합, 표면 요철 등 다양한 인자들로 표현되고 있다. 인쇄소에서는 인쇄를 하기 때문에 화선 부에서의 백색도나 불투명도 등은 크게 불만 요소로 작용하지는 않으나 표면 요철의 경우에는 인쇄 후 화선부에서도 나타나기 때문에 고객 불만의 한 요소로 인식되어 진 다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 백판지 면성의 여러 인자 중 표면 요철의 평가에 대해 다루 고자 하였다. 백판지 표면 요철을 시각적으로 나타내기 위한 방법으로 3-Dimensinal topography를 얻을 수 있는 Zygo와 Stylus를 이용, FFT 변환을 통하여 2-dimensional topography를 얻는 방법이 연구되었다. 그러나 기자재 비용, 측정 시간 등의 문제 등으로 표면 요철 을 평가하기 어려운 점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 백판지를 T APIO를 이용하여 O.2mm간격으로 두께를 측정하였고 A verage slope와 Profile length라는 개념을 도입하여 수치 적으로 표면 요철을 정 량화 하였다. Average slope는 1mm 간격으로 이동하였을 때 높이의 편차를 평균하는 값이다. 또 한 Video eam을 이용하여 표면 요철의 형태를 촬영하여 시각적으로 판단할 수 있도록 하였다. 위의 측정 방법으로 국내, 외 12개의 Sample에 대해 Profile length와 Average s slope를 계산하였다. 고객의 주관적 평가를 의사결정 방법 중 하나인 AHP법을 이용하여 주관적인 정성 평가를 수치적으로 정량화할 수 있었으며 실제 측정 결과와 비교, 상관분석을 실시 하 였다. 고객의 평가 결과와 Profile length, average slope의 상관성을 분석한 결과 A Average slope에서 유의성 있는 상관성을 얻을 수 있었고 표면 사진을 비교하였을 때 C Coating 방식 등을 유추할 수 있었다. 이러한 평가 방법을 현장에 적용하였으며 그 결과, 공정 개선 전, 후의 표변을 측정, 개선 유무를 쉽게 판단할 수 있었다.

자료기반 수문예측 모형은 서로 자기상관이 다른 자료계열에 대해 예측결과만으로 모형의 성능에 대한 상대비교가 어렵다. 그러나 관측치와 예측치간의 평균 오차만을 기준으로 판단하는 기존의 모형 성능평가 기법은 대부분 이러한 자료기반 예측모형의 특성을 고려하지 못하고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 자료기반 수문 예측모형의 성능을 보다 객관적으로 평가할 수 있는 새로운 모형 성능평가 기법인 상대 상관계수(Relative Correlation Coefficient; RCC) 제시하였다. RCC는 자기상관계수에 대한 관측치와 예측치간의 상관계수의 비로 산정되며, 자기상관정도에 따라 예측성능의 결과가 달라진다. 본 논문에서는 다양한 자기상관을 가지는 선형, 비선형 자료계열에 대해 자료기반 수문모형을 적용하여 기존 모형평가 기법의 한계를 제시하였다. 그리고 기존의 성능평가 기법과 RCC를 비교분석하여 자료기반 수문예측모형의 성능평가에 있어 RCC가 보다 객관적이고 일관성 있는 성능평가가 가능함을 보였다.

Cognitive-linguistic changes that normally accompany aging are often simply an annoyance, but in some instances they may herald a more perilous course of decline to a state of neurological disease. This study investigated the correlation between subjective and objective tests on cognitive-linguistic abilities in older adults and the predictors of objective performances. Healthy elders over 65 years of age (n=63) and their informants (n=63) completed the subjective and objective cognitive-linguistic tests (ISCOLE and CAPTBI) from July of 2015 to February of 2016. The main findings were as follows: performance on the self-report test was not significantly different from that on the informant-report test. Additionally, eight domains in older adults group and 15 domains in the informants group were significantly associated with performance on the objective test. Finally, language on the informant-report test was a predictor of several abilities including problem solving and memory on the informant-report test predicted executive function and language. The present study demonstrates that two groups have significant differences in correlation between subjective and objective tests on the cognitive-linguistic abilities, and there are more relevant domains in rating by informants. These findings have implications for the use of cognitive-linguistic evaluation and preventive intervention in clinical settings.

Objective: The aim of this study was to validate the Periotest values for the prediction of orthodontic mini-implants' stability. Methods: Sixty orthodontic mini-implants (7.0 mm $\times$ $\emptyset1.45$ mm; ACR, Biomaterials Korea, Seoul, Korea) were inserted into the buccal alveolar bone of 5 twelve month-old beagle dogs. Insertion torque (IT) and Periotest values (PTV) were measured at the installation procedure, and removal torque (RT) and PTV were recorded after 12 weeks of orthodontic loading. To correlate PTV with variables, the cortical bone thickness (mm) and bone mineral density (BMD) within the cortical bone and total bone area were calculated with the help of CT scanning. Results: The BMD and cortical bone thickness in mandibular alveolus were significantly higher than those of the maxilla (p < 0.05). The PTV values ranged from -3.2 to 4.8 for 12 weeks of loading showing clinically stable mini-implants. PTV at insertion was significantly correlated with IT (-0.51), bone density (-0.48), cortical bone thickness (-0.42) (p < 0.05) in the mandible, but showed no correlation in the maxilla. PTV before removal was significantly correlated with RT (-0.66) (p < 0.01) in the mandible. Conclusions: These results show that the periotest is a useful method for the evaluation of mini-implant stability, but it can only be applied to limited areas with thick cortical and high density bone such as the mandible.

The influence of land use and pollutant source on water quality was investigated using 3-yrs monitoring data major influent stream in Hwaong reservoir watershed. The seven water quality station (N1, N2, J1, J3, J4, E2, E3) were used analysis of land use and pollutant effect, and six water quality station (N3, N4, J2, J5, E1, E4) were used analysis of waster quality status. Water quality parameter were positively correlated with residential and forest, negatively with paddy and upland especially during dry period. During wet period, correlation between land use and water quality was less apparent. Population and livestock density was correlated well to water quality parameter than just number of population and livestock. The watersheds studied are mainly non-urban and their land uses are similar to typical watershed of other estuarine reservoirs, therefore, the correlation developed in this study might be helpful to manage other estuarine reservoir watersheds.
