Reinforced concrete (RC) structures play a significant role in the construction industries. An embeddable solid-state reference electrode (ESSRE) was used to evaluate the corrosion status of steel rebar in the concrete of various cover thicknesses that exposed to the maritime environment (3.5 % NaCl) in this study. From the open circuit potential measurement (OCP), the passive state, the corrosion uncertainty, and the 90% probability of corrosion state of the steel rebars in the concrete were monitored by ESSRE. From the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) method, severe corrosion was observed at the exposure period of 1510, 1847, 2350, and 3020 h for C10, C15, C20, and C30 concrete, respectively. The results confirm that the ESSRE can be useful to identify the corrosion occurrence and severe corrosion of steel rebar embedded in different cover depth concrete structures.

The corrosion inhibition properties of conifer cone (Pinus resinosa) extract were studied in synthetic concrete pore solutions (SCPS) with and without chloride environments by electrochemical methods. The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) revealed that the conifer cone (CC) extract showed promising inhibition behavior by diminishing the corrosion rate of steel rebar both solutions i.e. with and without chloride. The extract of conifer cone hinders the corrosion reaction between steel rebar and aggressive ions. Further, it can be verified that the up to 1000mg.L-1 of CC extract can able to reduce the corrosion rate of steel rebar in chloride contaminated concrete.

An attempt has been made on a constructive approach to evaluate the performance of snail shell ash (SSA) for its corrosion performance under marine environments. Corrosion performance of steel rebar in chloride contaminated SSA with (0% to 50%) replacement levels of cement extract medium was examined through electrochemical and weight loss techniques. Initially, snail shell powder (SSP) is made by pulverizing and subsequently SSA is by thermal decomposition methods. A critical level of 20 % SSA improved both corrosion resistance properties of cement extracts. SSA is a suitable replacement material for natural limestone in cement productions.

In this present study, the corrosion mitigation effect of conifer cone extract (CC) was examined in the cement mortar to improve the steel rebar (SR) corrosion resistance. The corrosion inhibition properties of the SR embedded in cement mortar (CM) admixed with different percentage (0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 %) of CC was studied by open circuit potential (OCP) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) tests. This result confirms that the CM with 0.5% of CC added has better corrosion resistance than the blank specimen (0 % of CC). Although, the percentage of CC increase above 0.5%, the CC could yield a negative impact on CM properties in terms of reducing the corrosion resistance due to the reduction of cement hydration reaction. It was highlighted that the SR embedded in CM containing 0.5% of CC had increased corrosion resistance.

This study successfully developed a chromium-free paper-based analytical device (µPAD) for chloride detection in fresh concrete. The sensing materials were chemically synthesized and coated to the paper through drop casting. The fabricated µPAD was thoroughly tested with various concentrations of chloride ions. Upon interaction with the µPAD, the chloride ions in the solution react with a chromium-free silver compound, exhibiting a specific coloring height proportional to the absolute chloride concentration. The height of the color change during a reaction can vary based on the chloride concentration, which allows for predicting the chloride concentration in a solution. The results reveal that µPAD has extraordinary precision in identifying chloride in fresh concrete, which highlights its immense potential for future applications.

An opening efficiency experiment of anchovy boat seine has been carried out using a half size of the ordinary seine to reduce the size of the seine net and to improve the fishing efficiency from field operation. The intervals of towing boats were set at 100, 200 and 300m, and the towing speed, at 0.6, 0.9, and 1.2k't by possible combinations of them. The vertical openings of wing net, inside wing net, bagnet and flapper as well as the spreads of the seine net and the towing tension of the warp were measured, to find out efficient fishing gear and method of the anchovy boat seine. The results obtained are as follows : 1. The vertical opening of the inside wing net ranged from 8.7m to 12.0m at the normal current and from 7.0m to 10.0m at the counter current, and that of the wing net, from 8.4m to 19.8m at the normal current and from 4.9m to 16.3m at the counter current. The vertical opening of the wing net and inside wing net decreased as the towing speed and intervals of the boats increase, from 66% to 16% and from 32% to 18% of the normal opening, respectively. 2. The vertical opening of the fore of bag net ranged from 7.9m to 12.8m at the normal current and from 7.4m to 9.7m at the counter current, and that of the flapper, from 3.4m to 5.1m at the normal current and from 4.4m to 5.1m at the counter current, and that of the flapper, from 3.4m to 5.1m at the normal current and from 4.4m to 5.1m at the counter current. The vertical opening of the bag net was from 98% to 57% of the normal opening and the flapper showed a circular shape and it rose up to the upper layer with a slower towing speed. 3. The vertical opening of the end of the bag net ranged from 7.1m to 9.3m at the normal current and from 7.4m to 8.8m at the counter current. The end of the bag net rose up to the upper layer, This phenomenon was more apparent as the towing speed and the interval of the boats increase. 4. The towing tension of the experimental nets increased from 648kg to 2,716kg at the normal current and from 1,050kg to 6,010kg at the counter current with increasing towing speed. 5. The net depth of the anchovy seine was stable with the higher towing speed and the wider interval of the boats, but it was unstable by rising up to the upper layer with the lower towing speed and the narrower interval of towing boats.

Properties and glue shear strength of each water soluble rues-phenol copolymer adhesive and phenolic resin adhesive were examined as a high temperature curing binder through the manufacture of plywood made of Kapur veneer. The former has different molar ratio and the latter was made from different catalyst method. The results are summarized as follows: 1) Specific gravities of air dried plywood manufactured from each adhesive ranged from 0.67 to 0.82 and their moisture contents met the K.S. standard 2) In dry and wet shear strength, adhesives with 60 percent of non volatile content showed higher values than those with 50 percent except phenolic resin. Urea-phenol copolymer resin with 20 percent of phenol content exhibited the highest, and that with 70 percent the lowest. Filling effect of wood flour on the bonding strength is great in urea-phenol copolymer resin with more than 50 percent of phenol content, especially significant in 50 percent of non volatile content including alkali catalyst phenolic resin. Alkali and acid catalyst methods were the highest among the adhesive manufacture methods. In wet strength, urea resin belongs to the lowest group. 3) In glue shear strength after boiling and drying test, no method for manufacturing phenolic formaldehyde resin adhesive was stronger than alkali and acid catalyst methods. Phenolic resin made from alkali catalyst method needs a wood flour filler to improve the bonding quality. Urea-phenol copolymer resin with 10 percent of phenol content showed the reasonable water resistance.

A model experiment on the anchovy boat seine was carried out in the southern sea of korea to analyze the vertical opening and the underwater geometry. The model net A was made of half size in the length and width of the prototype net. The model net B was attached floats and chain to the model net-A. The vertical opening and the underwater geometry of the model net were determined by distance of Minilog position with the combinations of the distance between paired boats and the towing speed. The results obtained can be summarized as follows; 1. Vertical opening of the model net was gradually lowered according to the increase of the distance between paired beats and the towing speed. 2. Vertical opening of Wing net, In side wing net, Square, Fore bag net, Flapper and After bag net of the model net A according to the distance between paired boats were varied in the range of 10.8~9.0, 12.0~8.3, 12.6~9.0, 10.4~6.6, 4.6~5.2, 8.8~7.7m respectively, varied in the range of 36~30, 21~15, 31~22, 80~51, 80~96, 59~51% of the normal opening respectively 3. Vertical opening of Wing net, In side wing net, Square, Fore bag net, Flapper and After bag net of the model net B according to the distance between paired boats were varied in the range of 9.1~8.5, 9.8~6.5, 11.2~8.0, 11.0~8.1, 4.7~5.0, 7.0~7.5m respectively, varied in the range of 30~28, 18~12, 27~20, 85~62, 87~93, 47~50% of the normal opening respectively 4. Vertical opening of each a part of the model net according to the towing speed was as same as the former. 5.

The diet composition of whitespotted conger, Conger myriaster was studied using 129 specimens collected in the coastal waters Geoje, Korea from June 2018 to May 2019. The size of the specimens ranged from 11.5~22.9 cm in preanus length (AL). C. myriaster was a piscivore that consumes mainly pisces such as Engraulis japonicus and Gobiidae (%IRI: 98.4%). Of the fish species E. japonicus was the most preferred prey. Based on these results, it is considered that Conger myriaster has a characteristic of feeding on abundant prey organisms in the study area. The dietary compositions of C. myriaster was not significantly different among size classes. These results are considered to be due to a lack of specimens and the various size groups were not collected. Based on these results, it is thought that immature fishes inhabit the coast of Geoje. As body size of C. myriaster increased the mean weigh of prey per stomach (mW/ST) tended to increase (one-way ANOVA, P<0.05).

We propose a novel single-feed triangular patch antenna with bar-type slots for dual-band circular polarization operation. And also propose a H-type slotted triangular patch antenna to enhance the ratio of the resonance frequencies. 3 cases of desist examples with bar-type slots were investigated and also 4 cases of H-slotted antennas were investigated to meet the dual-band requirement for GPS(Global Positioning System) and DMB(Digital Multimedia Broadcasting). One suitable design example was implemented and measured. Simulation results of the design example for GPS and DMB system show that axial ratio and maximum gain are 3.80 dB, 8.85 dBi for low-band at 1.575 GHz and 2.02 dB, 8.60 dBi for high-band at 2.642 GHz, respectively. Measured results of the implemented antenna show that $S_{11}$ is -12.43 dB for low-band at 1.575 GHz and less than -18.75 dB for high-band, respectively.
