In the root fracture, pulp necrosis tends to involve only the coronal fragment, while the pulp in the apical fragment remains vital. The prognosis of endodontic treatment of the apical fragment is poor due to the possibility of overfilling of the space between the fragments and difficulty in removing necrotic tissue. In the present cases, endodontic treatment of the apical fragment of root fracture was performed. However, in reendodontic treatment, resistance was felt at the fracture site and access to the root canal in the apical fragment was difficult. Therefore, the calcium hydroxide was periodically exchanged only in the coronal fragment without further treatment in the apical fragment and the canal of the coronal fragment was finally filled with Gutta-percha. Regular observation revealed no radiologic complications in the apical fragment. In some cases, we can observe good healing pattern such as absorption of calcium hydroxide and pulp canal obliteration of apical fragment in the long term.

The applicability of refraction survey has been tested using a wave glider widely used in long-term ocean observations around the world. To record seismic refractions, a single channel streamer with metal weight and a seismic recording system were mounted on the wave glider. We used GPS precise time synchronization signal and radio frequency (RF) communication to synchronize shot and recorder triggers and to control acquired data quality in real time. When the wave glider is positioned close to the set point, a 2,000 J sparker is exploded along the designed track at 2 second intervals. Through the test survey, we were able to successfully acquire refractions from the subsurface.

As Daecheon beach, which is the study area, has problem of erosion and loss of most beach under the extraordinary wave during the typhoon event, it is necessary to apply erosion control measures for short term impact. Therefore, we analyzed the status and reason of the erosion by field survey, collection of hydraulic model test, and numerical model experiment. For the erosion control measure, we adopted beach feeding and submerged reef method available at that site among various counter measures. Numerical analyses were made for both beach feeding only and beach feeding with submerged reefs and these were compared with the present status to find out the optimum design and to contribute for preparing a long term plan of beach loss protection.

Video monitoring techniques and their applications to beaches were reviewed. The recent development of video hardware and image process made it possible to measure shoreline changes, sandbar morphology, wave runup, swash motion, and so on using video camaras. Especially, quantitative information from the video image can be obtained by digitization of image, rectification procedure, and image process. Using video monitoring techniques, measurements can be made at much lower cost and for long periods of time compared to the traditional measurement techniques, although these techniques are of lower accuracy and provide only indirect information on the land and water surface.

댐 건설을 하게 되면 저수지 형성으로 인한 통수단면 증가가 발생하고 이에 따른 하천의 유속 및 난류 영향이 감소하게 된다. 이러한 영향으로 댐 상류 구간에서 발생한 유사량은 저수지에 퇴적하게 되고 유효저수량은 감소하게 된다. 저수지의 유효저수량 감소는 댐의 주요 기능인 용수공급, 수력발전 등의 기능 저하에 지대한 영향을 주게 된다. 특히 해외 수력발전 사업의 경우 하천 경사가 크고, 퇴사가 많이 발생하는 지역에 댐이 위치하고 있다. 이와 같은 문제 해결을 위한 중 장기적 퇴사거동 및 예측에 대한 연구가 필요한 상황이다. 본 연구에서는 파키스탄 Gulpur 지역에 설치 예정인 수력발전용 댐에 대한 장기간 퇴사모의를 위해 1차원 유사해석 모형인 HEC-RAS sediment module을 이용하였다. 퇴사모의에 적용한 모형의 입력 자료로는 총 52개년(1960-2011년)간 유사량 관측값과 20년간 유량측정 결과를 이용하였다. 유사해석 모의 시나리오는 유사 재질 비율변화에 따른 장기간 Deposited 모의와 댐의 Gate를 통한 유사 배제를 운영하는 Flushing 모의를 수행하였다. 유사해석 모의 결과 Deposited 시나리오의 경우는 저수지에서 퇴적된 유사는 대부분 Sand가 차지하게 된다. Sand의 포착률은 저수지가 가득 차기 이전에는 거의 100 % 포착이 되며, 저수지가 가득 차는 시기인 운영 20년 후에는 Sand를 포함한 전체 유사의 59%가 포착하게 되어 저수지가 한계에 도달한 것을 확인하였다. 또한, Flushing 시나리오의 경우는 Flushing 운영 기간의 변화에 따른 퇴사 포착 영향이 큰 것으로 분석되었으며, Gulpur 댐의 경우는 운영기간을 5일로 설정하는 것이 안정한 하상상태를 유지하는 것으로 검토되었다.

지금까지 분포형 모형 개발에 대한 많은 노력이 있음에도 불구하고 여러 제약사항들에 의해 잠재력을 보여주는 정도로 활용되어 왔으나, 최근 급속도로 발전하는 컴퓨터의 계산능력, DEM 등 디지털정보의 구축이 진행되어 오고 있고, GIS 및 인공위성 영상기법의 발달로 공간적인 비균질성을 고려하여 유출과정에서 운동역학적인 이론을 기반으로 물의 흐름을 수리학적으로 추적해 나가는 물리적기반의 분포형 유출모형의 활용도가 높아지고 있다. 본 모형개발에 있어 이론적 배경이 된 모형은 1998년부터 일본 교토대학 방재연구소 코지리 연구실에서 개발 중인 Hydro-BEAM으로 유역 물순환의 건전성을 평가하기 위하여 장기간의 유역 내 유량, 수질을 시계열 및 공간적으로 파악하여 유역의 영향평가를 위해 개발된 물리적 기반의 격자구조를 가진 분포형 장기유출 모형이다. 유출량 계산은 유역내 수평 유출량산정 모듈로서 평면 분포형의 격자형을, 연직 분포형으로는 $A{\sim}B$층의 수평유출량은 하천으로 유입하고, C층은 하천유량에 영향을 미치지 않는 지하수층으로 가정하는 다층모형을 이용해서 A층, 지표 및 하도흐름은 운동파 법(kinematic wave)으로, $B{\sim}C$층의 유출량은 선형저류법으로 계산하는 모형이다. 본 연구에서는 격자흐름방향을 4방향에서 8방향으로 개선하였고, 모형의 각종 수문매개변수들을 GIS와 연계하여 직접 입력할 수 있도록 하였으며, 물리적기반의 침투과정을 모의할 수 있도록 Green & Ampt모듈을 추가하고, 향후 레이더 강우 및 수치예보강우의 홍수유출예측을 염두에 두고 격자강우량을 활용할 수 있도록 하는 등 홍수유출해석을 위한 분포형 강우-유출모형으로 개선 하였고, 이를 남강댐유역에 적용해 봄으로써 모형의 적용성을 검토해 보고자 하였다. 홍수기동안의 지표흐름과 지표하 흐름의 시간적 변화와 공간적 분포를 모의할 수 있었으며, 전처리과정으로서 ArcGIS 혹은 ArcView등의 GIS 프로그램을 이용하여 모형에 필요한 ASCII형태의 입력 매개 변수 자료들을 가공하였다. 또한 후처리과정으로서 모형의 수행결과인 유역내의 유출량 분포 등을 GIS상에서 나타낼 수 있도록 ASCII형태로 출력하도록 구성하였다. 남강댐유역을 대상으로 유역을 500m의 정방형 격자로 분할하고 수계망을 통하여 유역 출구까지 운동파이론에 의해 추적 계산하였으며, 수문곡선 비교결과 재현성 높은 결과를 보여주었다. 모형의 정확성 및 실용성에 대한 보다 정확한 평가를 위해서는 향후 다양한 강우 사상 혹은 다양한 크기의 유역에 대한 유출량의 재현성 및 매개변수 등에 검증이 이루어져야 할 것이다.

Long-term wave observation was carried out near Busan New Port and the major wave characteristics were analyzed. At Busan New Port, waves from south direction were predominant throughout the year, while waves from the west, developed at the north sea of Geoje island, appeared almost the same frequency in winter season, showing apparent seasonal variation. During the observation period, the significant wave height was mostly less than 1 m, but it reached its maximum of 8.0 m when typhoon Maemi passed on September 2003. Also, the seasonal variation was hardly observed except July. In contrast, seasonal variation was apparent for the significant wave period, whose peak ranges 4~5 s in summer whereas about 3 s in winter. The largest significant wave period was 15.56 s, observed on June 2003. Meanwhile, the annual variation was negligible for mean wave direction as well as significant wave height and period. Further analysis of the wave data acquired for 5 years at 4.5 km south, in the south sea of Daejuk island, confirmed high correlation between the two observation points in summer and vice versa in winter.

Long term wave climate of both extreme and operational wave height is essential for planning and designing coastal structures. Since the availability of the field wave data for the waters around Korean peninsula is limited to provide a reliable wave statistics, the wave climate information has been generated by means of long-term wave hindcasting using available meteorological data. In this paper, a set of deep water wave data obtained from KORDI(2003) were analyzed for extreme wave heights. These wave data at 67 stations off the Korean coast from 1979 to 1998 were arranged in the 16 directions. The probability distributions considered in this research were the FT-I and Weibull distribution. For each of these distributions, the method proposed by Goda(2004) was applied to estimate the parameters. For judgment of best fitting, MIR criterion proposed by Goda and Gobune(1990) was used. FT-I distribution which best fits to the 886 data, while Weibull(k=0.75) 81 data, Weibull(k=1.00) 105 data.

In this study, expanded poly(tetrafluoro ethylene) (ePTFE) graft was modified to be used as a hemodialysis vascular access. Biodegradable poly(D,L-lactide-$co$-glycolide) (PLGA) was coated onto the inner surface of ePTFE graft with paclitaxel, which is often used as an anti-cancer agent and for reducing neointimal hyperplasia. Surface characterization before and after PLGA coating was carried out by SEM and ATR-FTIR. Porous sturcture of ePTFE was maintained after coating of PLGA solution. The amounts of coated PLGA and paclitaxel determined by ATR-FTIR and HPLC were 1.96 and 0.263 mg/$cm^2$, respectively. Young's modulus was decreased and tensile strength was increased by PLGA coating. Released paclitaxel as a function of incubation time was monitored by HPLC. Approximately 35% of coated paclitaxel was released steadily for 4 weeks with the biodegradation of PLGA. From these results, it is expected that the effect of paclitaxel on reducing neointimal hyperplasia and stenosis is maintained for a long time.

Pediatric dentists are frequently encountered with fractured root fragments of primary teeth caused either by the traumatic injuries or by the accidental fractures during the procedure of tooth extractions. In these situations, we often hesitate which method to choose, extract or retain it. In general, it is recommended to retain apical fragments, as the attempts to extract the apical fragments might harm the developing permanent tooth germ. This study was designed to ensure the validity of intentional retention of the root fragments of primary teeth in the situations described above. 6 children with intentionally root fragments who experienced root fracture in primary anterior teeth were available Periodic radiographic assessment was performed at 3 months interval for $7{\sim}37$ months. The results of this study showed that apical fragments had been resorbed through physiologic process in 5 patients. Apical fragment had been gingival emergence along with the erupting permanent tooth in 1 patient. There were no evidence of interference with eruption of permanent successors. In summary we have been ensured the validity of intentionally retention of the root fragments of primary teeth. Children with being remained apical root fragment should be recalled regularly for assessment and parents should be thoroughly informed about the situation with special emphasis on the necessity of periodic check-up.
