The cyclic triaxial test was carried out to research liquefaction characteristics and sample disturbance effects of silty sand soils at the west coast in Korea. First, liquefaction in silty sand was generated when axial strain approached to $\pm10%$ of strain and behavior of pore pressure was similar to the formula suggested by Seed, Martin, and Lysmer(1975). Also, it was found that dilatancy was generated at failure. Secondly, the liquefaction evaluation methods suggested by many researchers were carried out and the results were compared. In these methods the weak depth in liquefaction was similar and the method carried out by cyclic triaxial test on remolded sample showed the least safety factor. Thirdly the stress ratio by cyclic triaxial test was compared with that obtained from SPT N-value as a kind of empirical methods. It was found that the effect of sample disturbance was relatively small when SPT N-value was less than 20, but there were large differences in safety factor and resistance of liquefaction in soil by the effects of disturbance and remolding when SPT N-value was more than 20.

The quality of stream remaking is decided the load of a server and Jitter through the traffic of the transmission path between end to end. In order to improve these problems in this paper, I propose tree construction method of low-delay-level-multicast. In this case which the network congestion will be occurred by streaming quality, I also propose the technique which dynamically changes the transmission path. This technique first constructs the overlay structure for relaxing the overload of server. Secondly, in order to decrease Jitter of client, it makes upload bandwidth and low latency balanced. In the evaluation of the performance, this paper showed better enhancement of about $15%{\sim}24%$ than P2CAST[4] in the simulation about node average join count, average bandwidth, service request refusal ratio, RTT measurement of nodes, and node average join count by defect ratio.

A knowledge-based image retrieval technique is image searching methods using some features from the queried image. The materials in this study are automobile head lamps. The input data is composed of characters and images which have various pattern. The numbers, special symbols, and general letters are under the category of the character. The image informations are made up of the distribution of pixel data, statistical analysis, and state of pattern which are useful for the knowledge data. In this paper, we implemented a retrieval system for the scientific crime detection at traffic accident using the proposed multi knowledge-based image retrieval technique. The values for the multi knowledge-based image features were extracted from color and gray scale each. With this 22 features, we improved the retrieval efficiency about the color information and pattern information. Visual basic, crystal report and MS access DB were used for this application. We anticipate the efficient scientific detection for the traffic accident and the tracking of suspicious vehicle.

Endocirne disruptors (EDs) can cause fertility decrease, developmental disorder, and even cancer in animals. Until 90's, EDs were used in various synthetic products including paints, coatings, detergents, plastics, and plasticizers. Currently, in several countries, the production, trade and use of EDs or EDs-suspected chemicals have been regulated while activity to screen the alternatives for EDs including bisphenol-A, phthalate and nonylphenol is active. Although various toxicity test method was developed and applied for screening of alternatives, however, the safety of alternatives has been not fully demonstrated. Some alternatives have high structural similarity with existing EDs, raising the possible risk of endocrine disruption by alternatives. In an effort to develop the safe alternatives, we reviewed the effects of EDs such as bisphenol-A, phthalates, nonylphenol and their substituents. In addition, in-silico analysis for endocrine disrupting activities of some alternatives was presented.

This paper aims to investigate the lyotropic behaviors of DSPC and CER3 when they are swollen by GLY as a solvent. The analyses were carried out on DSC, XRDs, PM, and Cryo-SEM. CER3 which has its high crystallinity and structural similarity with DSPC was well arranged up to 7.0 wt% in comparison to 20 wt% DSPC without any separation, but it was separated from the liquid crystalline (LC) phase to form another crystalline phase with the expression of its characteristic peak in XRDs and eutectic thermal behavior in DSC. Introducing CER3, two types of patterns were shown in XRD spectra; one is SPP expressed in a normal LC and another is LPP expressed in human skin SC. Therefore, it was confirmed that the incorporation of CER3 makes LC structure more similar to human skin. In Cryo-SEM study, it was shown that CER3 makes LC structure thicker and denser.

Penetration resistance of bucket foundations with skirt wall in the silty sand of the western coast of Korea was analyzed by centrifuge modelling. The penetration resistance is induced when the bucket foundations are jacked into the soil without suction, and is directly related to the self-weight penetration depth. The procedure by Houlsby and Byrne (2005), which takes into account the effect of stress increase by frictional resistance of skirt wall, was utilized to generate the penetration resistance similar to the experimental results. This paper describes the methods by which major parameters such as lateral earth pressure coefficient and friction angle between the skirt wall and the soil are evaluated. The effect of changes in these parameters on the predictions is analyzed. Also, observed soil behaviour during jacking penetration is investigated.

In ultrathin section of the tissue of odontoglossum ringspot virus (ORSV)-infected Cymbidium goeringii Reichenbach, ORSV particles appeared as bundles of irregular aggregates of various length which were called stacked plates or rounded plates. Virus particles were found in the cytoplasm in electron clear zones and they also found between cell wall and plasma membrane. They mainly clustered in parallel aggregates and sometimes oriented randomly. The X-bodies and paramural bodies were observed near the cell membrane and these contained vacuole-like cavities. The cell wall of infected tissue expanded largely. Some chloroplast in ORSV infected cell was irregular. No virus particle was present in mitochondria, nuclei, vacuoles, vesicles or other organelles. The plasmodesmata slightly enlarged, and virus-associated granules were present around it.

Two oxytrichid ciliates collected from the two habitats (soil under pine forest near beach and sewage treatment plant) in Korea were identified as Oxytricha balladyna Song and Wilbert, 1989 and O. longa Gelei and Szabados, 1950. These species are reported in this paper for the first time from Korea. The description was based on the observation of living specimens and protargol impregnated specimens. Diagnostic characteristics for each species are as follows. O. balladyna: one micronucleus located between two macronuclei, five transverse cirri, three caudal cirri, five rows of dorsal kinety, no granule in cytoplasm. O. longa: each micronucleus closely located near two macronuclei, three postoral ventral cirri lying in a straight line and positioned far away from transverse cirri, four transverse cirri, two caudal cirri, four rows of dorsal kinety, yellow-green granules scattered on cytoplasm.

Three Korean leading wheat varieties and three imported ones were tested to compare the domestic wheat varieties with imported ones for their grain and Sour quality. The domestic varieties were generally inferior to the imported ones in milling characteristics. The milling rate of the Korean varieties was $66{\sim}68%$, while the imported one was 70%. But Jogwang, one of the Korean varieties had relatively high milling rate, 68%. Jogwang had a protein conten of 9.5%, sedimentation value of 30 ㏄ and Pelshenke value of 35 minutes. Jogwang seems likely to have a suitable quality as a soft variety and it showed somewhat better flour quality than white soft wheat, the imported soft wheat on farinogram.
