The slime formed at the bottom of the borehole causes the excessive displacement and loss of the bearing capacity of the drilled shaft. In this study, the slime meter is developed for the evaluation of the slime based on the electrical properties of the fluid and the slime in the borehole. The slime meter is composed of a probe instrumented with electrodes and temperature sensor and a frame with rotary encoder, so that the slime meter profiles the electrical resistivity compensated with temperature effect along the depth. For the application of the slime meter, three field tests are conducted at a borehole with a diameter of 3 m and a depth of 46.9 m with different testing time and locations. For all the tests, the experimental results show that while electrical resistivities are constantly measured in the fluid, the electrical resistivities sharply increase at the surface of the slime. Therefore, the slime thicknesses are estimated by the differences in the depths of the slime surface and the ground excavation. The experimental results obtained at the same testing point with different testing time show that the estimated thickness of the slime increases by the elapsed time. Also, the estimated slime at the side of the borehole is thicker than that at the center of the borehole. As the slime meter estimates the slime in the borehole by measuring the electrical resistivity with simple equipment, the slime meter may be effectively used for the evaluation of the slime formed at the bottom of the borehole.

This research is the result of investigating engineering characteristics of slime generated during construction of deep mixing method. Mechanical characteristics of slime have been studied through literature review and laboratory tests of unconfined compression test, permeability test and settling tests were performed. As result of field observation of slime being generated, slime started to be produced right after flight auger was penetrated into a ground and its amount was increased in progress. Unconfined compressive strength of specimen with slime obtained from in field was measured in the range of $929.7{\sim}3,509.8kN/m^2$ and the value of unconfined compressive strength was found to be changed significantly with mixing ratio of soil, cement and binder. Permeability of them was measured in the range of $4.53{\times}10^{-7}{\sim}6.62{\times}10^{-6}cm/sec$ so that the mixture was appropriate as a impervious barrier. It was also know that the value of permeability was changed with the mixing ratio of binder. As test results of solidifying slime specimen prepared in the laboratory, good quality of cement mixture with coarse soil of sand were produced, compared with fine soils of silt and clay.

The hydrochloric acid leaching has been studied as a fundamental experiment on the recovery of arsenic from arsenic-bearing copper slime in copper electrorefining. The slime is mainly composed of $\beta-Cu_3As$ Which is intermetallic compound of CU and As. And the minor components are $CU_2O$ and CusAs in the slime. The optimum conditions of leaching of the slime were found to be as follows : 6N hydrochloric acid, particle size passed through 140 mesh, leaching for 150 min at $60^{\circ}C$, ratio of HCI/slime of 3 to 1 ; where 98 percent of arsenic were leached out of the As-bearing slime.

This study focused on the development of a fundamental technology for coating of concrete surface using slime produced from bacteria. To assign self-purification ability and improve durability performance of concrete, Rhodobater capsulatus that generates slime were selected and absorption technology for the selected bacteria was then examined. From the production of slime and growth activity of the bacteria, the optimum medium for Rhodobater capsulatus can be recommended as maltose. Furthermore, image analysis showed that high porous resin powder is more effective for absorption of the Rhodobater capsulatus than the other materials tested.

Recently, many researches on crack healing and repairing technique using bacteria which can produce vital-reacted calcite have been proposed. This study is for a basic research on repair material with slime formation through bacteria and deals with durability evaluation for coating materials containing bacteria-forming slime. For the work, 4 types of bacteria (Rhodobacter capsulatus, Rhodopseudomonas palustris, Bacillus thuringiensis, and Bacillus subtilis) and 2 types of nutrient conditions are considered, and several tests covering strength evaluation under sulfate condition, accelerated chloride diffusion, and UV (Ultrasonic Velocity) measurement are performed. Strength improvement in coating materials containing bacteria is evaluated in spite of even exposure to sulfate attack to 7 days. Chloride diffusion coefficient and UV properties are also improved except for the case of Rhodopseudomonas palustris. With resistance of slime to long term exposure and aerobic conditions for bacteria longevity, the proposed bacteria shows an engineering feasibility for repair material of RC structure exposed harsh environment.

이 연구의 목적은 ASMR(autonomous sensory meridian response)이 고등학생의 심리적 안정에 미치는 효과를 알아보기 위한 것이다. 이를 위해 1학년 학생들(341명)을 대상으로 ASMR에 관한 인식을 설문 조사하였으며, 설문 응답(279명)을 분석한 결과, 약 75%의 학생들이 ASMR에 대해 경험을 했으며, 68%의 학생들이 ASMR이 도움이 된다고 응답하였다. 또한 ASMR이 편안함, 집중력 강화, 수면에 도움 등의 순으로 도움이 된다고 응답하였으며, 빗소리(39%), 먹방 (23%), 목소리(15%) 순으로 ASMR 유형을 선호하였다. H고등학교 학생들을 대상(20명)으로 사전 심장박동수를 측정하고 대표적인 4개 ASMR(먹방, 슬라임, 펜촉, 빗소리)를 1분 동안 들려준 후, 사후 심장박동수를 측정하였다. 분석 결과, 4가지 종류 ASMR(먹방, 슬라임, 펜촉, 빗소리) 중, 먹방 ASMR이 고등학생의 심리적 안정에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.

The slime, deposited in the bored pile due to falling soil particle, reduces the bearing capacity of bored pile and thus the stability of construction also decreases. The weight pendulum and iron have been used for estimating the slime thickness based on the subjective judgment and thus the previous method has a limitation of reliability. The objective of this paper is to suggest the method for estimating the slime thickness by using characteristics of electrical resistivity as scientific method. The temperature-compensation resistivity probe (TRP), which has a conical shape and the diameter of 35.7mm, is applied to the measurement of the electrical resistivity in the borehole during penetration. The field tests are carried out for estimating the slime thickness in the application site of bored pile. The slime thickness is calculated through the difference between excavation depth of borehole and measured data. Furthermore, the laboratory tests are also conducted for investigating effects of casing, time elapsing and relative density by using the specimen of slime. The laboratory test supporting the suggested method is reasonable for determining the slime depth. The paper suggests that the electrical resistivity method may be a useful method for detecting slime thickness and the method is expected to be applicable to various sites of bored piles.

In this study, scarp of PCB containing copper and precious metals was manufactured as an anode, and electrorefining experiments were conducted on change of $H_2SO_4$ concentration and current density. Through electrolytic refining experiments, the concentration of Cu and slime recovered from each electrode was analyzed, element behavior was confirmed, and current efficiency was also calculated. As the $H_2SO_4$ concentration was increased, the current efficiency and the purity of Cu decreased, but the precious metals in the anode slime were maximally concentrated with 2.0 M $H_2SO_4$. In addition, as the current density was increased, the current efficiency decreased and the purity of Cu showed a tendency to increase, and the precious metals in the anode slime were maximally concentrated with $300A/m^2$. As a result of the pilot scale experiments, the Au content was 8,705 mg/kg, the Ag content was 35,092 mg/kg in the anode slime. As compared with the initial content, Au was concentrated 16 times and Ag concentrated 14 times.
