Purpose: The objective of this study is to present a reasonable safety management of the anchored in-situ wall systems constructed in the ground conditions consisting of multi-layered soils underlain by bedrocks in the urban area of Korea. Method: Field measurements collected from collapse case histories with deep excavations were analyzed for the safety management of the wall systems supported by the earth anchors in terms of lateral displacement rates. Results: The average maximum lateral displacement rate in a collapsed zone of the in-situ wall significantly increased upon the completion of the excavation. Particularly, the collapse of the in-situ wall system due to the sliding occurring along the discontinuities of the rock produced a considerably large lateral displacement rate over a relatively short period. Conclusion: For predicting and preventing the collapse of the wall system during or after the excavation work, the utilization of the safety management criteria of the in-situ wall system by the lateral displacement rate was found to be much more reasonable in judging the safety of earthworks than the application of the quantitative management criteria which have been commonly used in the excavation sites.

The spread rate of forest fire was analyzed on Samcheok forest fire that broke out on April 7, 2000 in Kunduck-Myun, Samcheok-City, Kangwon-Province and lasted for about 9 days. The spatial database including topography, overstory species distribution, micro-climate, daily fire front lines for the area was built using GIS and the daily spread pattern was investigated to determine a multiple regression equation to estimate forest fire spread rate. The results of the investigation showed that, on the first day, the forest fire spreaded out extremely fast up to 12.3m/min at about 10 a.m. until noon. After that, the forest fire spread rate fluctuated and slowed down as low as below 1m/min and quenched on April 15. The daily area-based spread rate along the fire spread line got to the peak of about 5,700ha on April 11, of which spread rates were recorded as 2.84m/min in the first half and 1.10m/min in the second half. Also, it was found that slope aspect, wind velocity and % area distribution of Pinus densiflora are the major factors affecting the spread rate of forest fire in this area.

이상기후로 인하여 제방붕괴에 대한 위험성이 높아지고 있고, 이로 인해 발생하는 제내지 내 붕괴 홍수파에 대한 연구가 증가하고 있다. 특히 홍수파 선단의 이동 속도 추정은 제내지의 위험성을 예측하고, EAP 등을 수립하는데 매우 중요한 자료가 될 수 있다. 제내지에서의 선단 홍수파에 대한 예측을 하기 위해서는 해당 지역의 하천특성, 수리특성 및 제방 등 수공구조물 특성뿐만 아니라, 제내지의 지형 및 토지이용 현황 등을 조사하여 수리실험이나 수치모의를 수행해야 하는 것이 일반적이다. 수치해석의 경우 수리실험에 비하여 경제성 및 효율성 측면에서 뛰어날 수 있으나, 제방 붕괴과정 및 메커니즘을 반영하기가 불가능하다. 이에 반해 수리모형실험의 경우 제방붕괴 양상 및 그 과정의 재현이 가능하기 때문에, 제내지에서의 선단홍수파 전파에 관한 보다 정확한 양상을 파악할 수 있을 것이다. 그러나 이러한 실험은 실제 크기의 하천이 아닌 축소모형 또는 개수로에서 수행되었기 때문에, 초기 홍수파의 전파가 축척효과(Scale effect)의 영향을 받을 가능성이 매우 크다. 특히 선단 홍수파의 경우 파가 진행되면서 수심이 낮아지고, 유속이 느려지기 때문에 그 영향은 점차 증대된다고 할 수 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 이러한 초기 선단 홍수파의 표면장력 영향을 고려한 보정 계수 산정에 대한 연구를 수리실험을 통해 수행하였다. 연구는 크게 4가지 과정으로 구성되었다. 첫째는 농도-표면장력의 관계 규명이며, 둘째는 표면장력-홍수파 전파 속도 관계 규명이다. 셋째는 표면장력과 Weber Number(We)의 관계를 도출하는 것이며, 마지막은 We를 이용하여 한계조건을 제시하는 것이다. 실험은 계면활성제의 농도를 변화시켜가며, 얇은 유리관(D=1.0 mm)에서 물의 상승 높이 및 접촉각을 측정하여 농도와 표면장력의 관계를 측정하였으며, 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 물의 표면장력을 변화시켜 가며 $0.5(B){\times}0.3(L){\times}0.2(H)m$의 Head-tank에 설치된 수문을 빠르게 개방하여, 홍수파가 퍼지는 양상을 관측하였다. 홍수파의 이동 속도는 진행시간에 따라서 퍼짐 넓이를 측정하여 제곱근을 취하는 방식으로 평균속도를 산정하였다. 이러한 관계를 이용하여 표면장력이 없을 경우의 이동속도 및 ??를 도출하였다. 본 연구를 통해 홍수파 전파 특성에 대한 수리실험 자료를 바탕으로 Weber 수를 도출하여 표면장력의 영향을 받는지 여부를 판단할 수 있으며, 표면장력의 영향을 받을 경우, 제시된 결과를 이용하여 홍수파 선단의 속도를 보정할 수 있다. 본 연구 결과는 토대로 축소모형으로 수행되는 홍수파 전파에 대한 수리실험결과의 보정 기초자료로 매우 유용할 것으로 판단된다.

Bubble size in froth flotation has long been recognized as a key factor which affects the bubble residence time, the bubble surface area flux (Sb) and the carrying rate (Cr). This paper presents method of bubble size measurement, relationship between operating variables and gas dispersion properties in flotation column. Using high speed camera and image analysis system, bubble size has been directly measured as a function of operating parameters (e.g., superficial gas rate (Jg), superficial wash water rate (Jw), frother concentration) in flotation column. Relationship compared to measured and estimated bubble size was obtained within error ranges of ±15~20% and mean bubble size was 0.718mm. From this system the empirical relationship to control the bubble size and distribution has been developed under operating conditions such as Jg of 0.65~1.3cm/s, Jw of 0.13~0.52cm/s and frother concentration of 60~200ppm. Surface tension and bubble size decreased as frother concentration increased. It seemed that critical coalescence concentration (CCC) of bubbles was 200ppm so that surface tension was the lowest (49.24mN/m) at frother concentration of 200ppm. Bubble size tend to increase when superficial gas rate (Jg) decreases and superficial wash water rate Jw and frother concentration increase. Gas holdup is proportional to superficial gas rate as well as frother concentration and superficial wash water rate (at the fixed superficial gas rate).

This study aims to help Korean English learners to learn English pronunciation by revealing which suprasegmentals affect the implementation of English sentences closer to native English speakers when they read English sentences. To this end, Korean middle school English learners were selected as subjects and research data were gathered through sentence types (declarative, interrogative, imperative, and exclamative), as well as syllables. Speech rate, pause frequency, pause duration, F0 range, and rhythm among suprasegmentals were used for analysis of these English sentence utterances. Mean analysis, correlation analysis, and regression analysis were performed. The results showed that speech rate, pause frequency, pause duration, and F0 range affected the evaluation of fluency levels. In the regression analysis between all suprasegmentals and fluency levels, the suprasegmentals that most affected fluency levels were speech rate and F0 range. Rhythm had no meaningful relation with fluency levels. Therefore, when teaching English pronunciation, it is necessary to teach students to increase their speech rate and F0 range. In addition, students should be trained to reduce both the number and the duration of pauses during utterance to improve their fluency. It is noteworthy that of the four sentence types, exclamative sentences were produced with faster speech rate, fewer pauses, shorter pause duration, and higher rhythm values.

In this paper, the dynamic hard shoulder running for bus only (HSRFBO) was presented to solve the traffic congestion by increase the capacity in chronic congested sections of highways, and a simulation was performed to evaluate the comparison with the current hard shoulder running for all vehicles(HSRFAV) and median bus only lane and HSR(MBOLHSR). According to the evaluation results, it was evaluated to be more advantageous in terms of traffic flow and safety than the current HSRFAV. In addition, the speed of passing buses is slightly reduced compared to the MBOHSR, but the speed of entering and exiting buses is increased and the speed of buses and cars is greatly improved. Therefore It was analyzed that the efficiency of transport personnel was also improved. In particular, it is expected that traffic flow will be stabilized as the difference in speed between passenger cars and buses will be greatly reduced, and violations of exclusive bus lanes by passenger cars will be greatly reduced. In addition, the operation time of HSR is greatly reduced, so that the original function of the shoulder lane can be maintained as much as possible. As a result, it was analyzed that the risk of accidents was significantly reduced when operating HSRFBO compared to when operating MBOHSR, and cross-conflicts with high accident severity did not occur.

Level of Service (LOS) is one of ways to evaluate operational conditions. It is very important factor in evaluation especially for the facility of highways. However, some studies proved that ${\upsilon}/c$ ratio and accident rate is appeared like a second function which has a U-form. It means there is a gap between LOS and safety of highway facilities. Therefore, this study presents a method for evaluation of a signalized intersection which is considered both smooth traffic operation (delay) and traffic safety (accident). Firstly, as a result of our research, accident rates and EPDO are decreased when it has a big delay. In that reason, it is necessary to make a new Level of Service included traffic safety. Secondly, this study has developed a negative binominal regression model which is based on the relation between accident patterns and stream. Thirdly, standards of LOS are presented which is originated from calculation between annual delay costs and annual accident cost at each intersection. Lastly, worksheet form is presented as an expression to an estimation step of a signalized intersection with traffic accident prediction model and new LOS.

This research proposes new tram signal coordination model, called MAXBAND MILP-Tram for a passive tram signal priority strategy. The proposed model was formulated based on the MAXBAND model that was a traditional arterial signal optimization model. The model could calculate the bandwidth solutions for both general-purpose-lane traffic and median-tram-lane traffic. Lower progression speed are applied for the tram traffic considering lower running speed and dwell time at the stations. A phase sequence procedure determines the green times and left-turn phase sequences for tram traffic in median tram lane. To estimate the performance of the MILP-Tram model, the control delay of trams were estimated using the micro simulation model, VISSIM. The analysis results showed 57 percent decrease of the tram compared to the conventional signal timing model. The delay for car, however, increased 18 percent. The sensitivity analysis indicated that the passive tram signal priority strategy using the offset and phase sequence optimization was effective in reducing the person delay under the congested traffic condition.

모니터링 자료의 부족으로 인하여 다양한 토지이용에서 발생하는 비점오염물질의 관리에 어려움을 겪고 있는 실정이다. 현재 환경부에서는 현행 토지계의 원단위를 세부적으로 분류하여 재산정하기 위하여 지목별로 장기 모니터링이 수행되고 있다. 특히, 산림 지역의 경우 도시 및 축산지역에 비하여 강우유출수의 농도는 낮더라도 유량적인 측면에 보았을 때 전체 수계에 대한 부하량 기여도는 매우 높다고 볼 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 장기모니터링의 일환으로 산림지역에 대한 비점오염물질 유출 특성을 파악하기 위하여 모니터링 및 분석을 실시하였으며, 이러한 결과는 향후 비점오염원 평가기반을 마련하고자 한다. 본 연구는 활엽수지역을 대상으로 2010년 4월부터 10월까지 총 16회에 걸쳐 모니터링이 수행되었으며, 시료의 성분 변화를 막기 위해 냉장기능이 있는 자동채수기를 이용하여 시료를 채취하였다. 수질분석항목은 BOD, COD, DOC, SS, T-N, $NO_3$-N, $NH_3$-N, T-P, $PO_4$-P로 총 9가지 항목을 분석하였다. 강우사상에 대한 모니터링 결과, 총강우량은 7.0~76.5mm, 강우지속시간은 1~30hr, 평균 강우강도는 0.88~18.50mm/hr의 범위를 보이고 있으며, EMC(Event Mean Concentration, 유량가중평균농도)결과 BOD는 0.4~2.4mg/L, T-N은 1.156~14.777mg/L, T-P는 0.009~0.562mg/L인 것으로 나타났으며, SS는 1.8~71.9mg/L 로 비교적 높은 값을 나타내는 것으로 분석되었다. 농도 변화 및 유출경향의 패턴을 볼 때, 유량이 증가함에 따라 농도도 점점 증가하여 첨두유량이 발생된 후 감소하는 경향을 나타내는 것으로 분석되었다. 또한 우리나라의 경우, 시험유역을 대개 산지 소유역에 설치하는 경우가 많아서 일반적으로 지연시간이 짧은 경우가 많기 때문에 이 지역 역시 강우가 내린 후 계류유출량의 증가에 영향을 주는 강우의 유출속도는 비교적 빠른 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 단기 수문곡선상에서 강우량이 많을 시 유출이 빠르게 일어나 첨두 유량에 도달하는 시간이 짧고, 강우량이 적을 시에는 첨두 유량의 출현시간이 늦어지는 것을 볼 수 있었다.

The fertilized eggs were obtained from mature adult slime flounder Microstomus achne to determine the water temperature effect on egg development. The lowest water temperature for the flounder egg development was $0.4^{\circ}C$ on average. The temperature-dependent duration from fertilization to hatching ranged 86.5 to 296.7 hours at $9\sim21^{\circ}C$ with an accelerated development at higher temperature. Agreeable hatching rates, 95.8~97.0%, were obtained at $12\sim18^{\circ}C$, while lower at both extremes, 86.9% at $9^{\circ}C$ and 9.3% at $21^{\circ}C$. The highest water temperature, $24^{\circ}C$, had the life of the fertilized eggs confined within 24 hours. Water temperature was a parameter that induced an abnormal egg development: with abnormalities of 88.3% at $21^{\circ}C$, 2.1% at $9^{\circ}C$ (P<0.05), and 0.4~0.8% at $12\sim18^{\circ}C$.
