The objective of this research was to evaluate the feasibility of using oyster-shell and eggshell wastes for the stabilization of arsenic-contaminated soil. Artificial As(V) contaminated soil was mixed with 0~5% oyster-shell and eggshell wastes and each sample was incubated for 30 days in a controlled environment. The efficiency of each treatment was evaluated using various single extractants (1 N HCl, 0.1 N NaOH and 0.5 N $H_2SO_4$). The concentration of As(V) was reduced by 10% upon a 5% oyster-shell or eggshell waste treatments based on the Korea Standard Test method (1 N HCl extraction). Analogous trends were observed in the 0.1 N NaOH or 0.5 N $H_2SO_4$ extractions. In addition, the oyster-shell and eggshell waste treatments increased the pH of each soil from 6.54 (Control) to 7.62~7.94. The exchangeable Ca in each soil also sharply increased from 6.87 cmol(+)/kg (Control) to 12.77~20.18 cmol(+)/kg. Further research is needed to increase the effectiveness of the oyster-shell and eggshell waste for the stabilization of As(V) in the contaminated soil.

In this study, we investigated the feasibility of calcium sulfate fertilizer as a stabilizing agent for As and Hg contaminated farmland soil and its stabilization characteristics in 3 different physical forms (particulate, powder, and solution) through a pot experiment including 34 days of lettuce growth. As and Hg contents of the lettuce grown in the stabilized soils were decreased by at least 70%. However the lettuce yield of the soil stabilized with the solution agent was decreased by 46% due to the overabundance of the nutrients from the solution agent. Thus, if a solution-type agent is planned for agricultural farmland soil stabilization, additional tests for optimal dosage are needed to preserve vegetation growth. In Hg fractionation, a lower concentration of elemental fractions and a higher concentration of residual/sulfide fractions were identified in the soils stabilized with the solution, powder, and pariculate agents in descending order while there were no significant changes in As fractionation. Overall results suggest that calcium sulfate fertilizer can be used as a stabilizing agent, and a solution-type agent could be used when the operation of heavy machinery for the soil stabilization process is impossible.

Study of the effect of interbody stabilization exercises on the static and dynamic balance of face-to-face, non-face-to-face, and self-group. We recruited healthy young adults The subjects were randomly divided into three groups to perform inter-body stabilization exercises, and static and dynamic balance were measured, respectively, before and after intervention. In the Face to Face Group, dynamic balance significantly increased in the anterior and posteriomedial directions before and after intervention. There was also a significant increase in static balance. In the Non face to face Group, there was a significant increase in the three directions of dynamic and static balance. The self-exercise group significantly increased in three directions of dynamic balance, but there was no significant difference in static balance. No significant differences between groups were found in any variables. The results of this study showed that interbody stabilization exercises are effective in improving static and dynamic balance. In the face-to-face group, the inter-body stabilization exercise was effective in improving dynamic balance and static balance, and in the non-face-to-face group, the inter-body stabilization exercise was effective in improving dynamic balance and static balance. In the self-contained group, it was effective in improving dynamic balance.

This study evaluated the mechanical properties and crack-healing abilities of zirconia composite ceramics. The six kinds of specimens used were: partially stabilized zirconia (Z) and five zirconia composite (ZS, ZST1, ZST2, ZST3, and ZST5) with SiC and $TiO_2$. There was not a large difference between the Vickers hardness of the six types of zirconia ceramics. The bending strength of the ZS specimen degraded rapidly, but the zirconia specimens with $TiO_2$ (ZST1, ZST2, ZST3, and ZST5) showed improved strength. Therefore, it was determined that the bending strength is affected by the crystallization, which is due to the addition of SiC and $TiO_2$. From the crack-healing conditions having the highest bending strength, monolithic zirconia retained its cracks, while the specimens of four types with SiC healed their cracks.

Perchlorate ion ($ClO_4^-$) has been widely used as oxidizing agent in military weapon system such as rocket and missile fuel propellant. So it has been challenging to remove the pollutant of perchlorate ion. nanoscale zero valence iron (nZVI) particles are widely employing reduction catalyst for decomposition of perchlorate ion. nZVI particles has increasingly been utilized in groundwater purification and waste water treatment. But it have strong tendency of aggregation, rapid sedimentation and limited mobility. In this study, we focused on reduction of perchlorate ion using nZVI particles immobilized in alginate polymer bead for stabilization. The stabilized nZVI particles displayed much greater surface area, and much faster reaction rates of reduction of perchlorate ion. In this study, an efficient way to immobilize nZVI particles in a support material, alginate bead, was developed by using $Ca^{2+}$ as the cross-linking cations. The efficiency and reusability of the immobilized Fe-alginate beads on the reduction of perchlorate was tested at various temperature conditions.

This study was understood the risk mechanism of falls in the elderly and reviewed previous research data to see if the principle of Pilates rehabilitation exercise could have a positive effect on balance ability and postural stabilization in the elderly, and the purpose of this study is to present literature-based data on the fall prevention effect of rehabilitation Pilates exercise. First, the rehabilitation Pilates exercise makes it available for strengthening the center of the body to stabilize the spine and pelvis and stimulates the nerve root, thereby having an effect on the balance and the joint stabilization. Second, a proprioceptive sensory impairment and a musculoskeletal degenerative disease due to aging increase the loss of balance ability and the instability in posture maintenance, thereby coming to raise the risk of a fall damage caused by the difficulty in performing motor functions and by the gait disturbance. Third, the rehabilitation Pilates exercise leads to improving the core muscle strength in older adults, resulting in being capable of expecting the betterment in the balance and the reaction time motor function. And there is a positive impact on the improvement in body imbalance and on the stability in movement involved in the fall prevention, resulting in being able to suggest the possibility of likely contributing to a reduction in a fall risk rate. In conclusion, the rehabilitation Pilates as the elderly exercise program showed effects on the improvement in the body's muscular strength, on the upgrade in a sense of balance, and on the stabilization of core. Thus, it was considered to diminish the risk factors for a fall damage caused by musculoskeletal degeneration and to be capable of preventing a serious disorder of activity due to a chronic senile disease.

초미세 전자 소자에 대한 개발에 대한 요구는 최근 들어 원자 단위의 구조물 제작에 대한 연구로까지 나아 가게 하고 있다. 좋은 물리적 성장을 가지는 양자도선(quantum wire), quantum dot와 같은 nano 단위 구조물 제작에 대한 요구는 그 가능성의 하나로 , 기울어진 vicinal) 표면위에서의 박막 성장에 대한 연구로 이어지고 있다. 기울어진 표면은 한 원자층으로 된 많은 계단들을 가지고 있는 표면이고, 이러한 계단들의 존재는 박막 성장 시 흡착 원자가 계단 끝에 부착될 확률을 증가 시켜, stepflow 성장과 같은 준 층별 성장을 만들 가능성을 높여주며, sub-ML증착에 대해서 원자가 계단면을 따라 길게 늘어선 양자도선과 같은 성장이 가능한 표면이라는 점에서 관심을 갖게 한다. 그러나 최근의 연구들에 의하면 기울어진 표면 위에서의 성장도 Schwoebel 장벽과 같은 분산 장벽의 존재로 계단과 수직인 축 방향으로 거친 모양의 island가 형성되는 Bails-Zangwill 불안정성이 나타나는 것으로 보고되고 있고, 이것은 준 층별 성장이나 양자 도선과 같은 성장을 방해하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이러한 불안정성을 해결할 가능성으로 최근 들어 한 계단의 높이가 큰 step bunching 이 생겨난 표면위에서의 성장이 제기 되고 있으나, 아직 확인되지 않았다. 본 연구는 이러한 기울어진 표면 위에서 박막을 성장 할 때 층흐름(step flow) 성장이 가능한 역학적 동역학적 조건을 구하고자 하며, 방법으로는 KMC 시뮬레이션을 이용한다. 단원자로 구성된 계단이 있는 기울어진 표면 위에서의 homoepitaxy의 경우, 성장 양식은 계단과 계단 사이의 테라스 간격에 크게 의존한다. 테라스 간격이 좁을수록 성장은 보다 층흐름 성장에 근접한다. 그러나 다층으로 성장시킨 시뮬레이션의 결과는 일반적인 장벽 조건 아래에서는 계단의 방향과 수직인 방향으로 평평한 면에서와 동일한 크기를 가지는 island가 성장하는 것을 볼 수 있고, 이 것은 Bails-Zangwill 불안정성이다. 그러나 계단 사이의 테라스 간격이 매우 좁은 경우 5-6ML 성장 이하에서는 층흐름 성장과 동일한 성장이 이루어지나 계단을 따라서 미소한 크기의 거칠기가 나타난다. 동일한 기울어진 경사면에 대해서는 분산속도가 좋을수록 보다 계단 면을 따라 보다 큰 크기의 island가 나타난다. 분산 장벽과 같이 동역학적인 요소만으로는 완벽한 층흐름 성장은 높은 온도, 극히 낮은 분산 장벽이라는 조건 이외에는 얻기 어렵다. 그리고 층흐름 성장의 가능성으로 제시된 step bunching 일 일어난 다층 높이의 계단을 가진 면도 다층의 수만큼 계단수를 늘려주는 것과 동일한 결과가 나타나며, 이 경우도 층흐름 성장에는 근접하지만 완전한 형태의 성장은 얻기는 역시 어렵다. 따라서 원자단위의 도선이나 층흐름 성장은 계단과 계단 사이의 인력 또는 척력과 같은 역학적인 요소를 고려할 때 만이 가능할 것으로 보인다.

To investigate the influences of biological factors on stored rice and their interactions, the activities of red Hour beetle(Tribolium castaneum) and 2 species of Aspergillus was observed during 6 weeks at $28^{\circ}C{\pm}1^{\circ}C$. It was found that the red flour beetle could complete its life cycle on rice in six weeks. Its activity caused the increse of moisture content of rice(max. 1.3%) after 6 weeks, but the number of mold propagule on the surface of stored rice decreased. The growth of red flour beetle showed a stabilizing tendency on rice inoculated with Asp. repens while it was retarded with Asp. niger.
