The types of misconceptions and their consistencies of the elementary school teachers about the characteristics of currents according to the connection methods of batteries in simple electric circuits were investigated. The misconceptions of the elementary school teachers about them could be divided into three types. Among the respondents of the 96 elementary school teachers for this study, the 2 elementary school teachers consistently understood the characteristics of currents on the basis of the misconception type of focusing only the number of batteries connected regardless of the connection methods of batteries, the 8 elementary school teachers did on the basis of the misconception type of confusing the series connection and the parallel connection of batteries, and the 4 elementary school teachers did on the basis of the misconception type of confusing the series and parallel connection of batteries with those of resistors. Also, they consistently applied these misconception types to not only the situations to use the learned concepts but the situations to use the differentiated concepts about the connection methods of batteries.

This study investigates developments in a prestressing method using the thermal-expanded cover-plates that increases the load-carrying capacity of structures by installing it on upper or lower flanges in case that huge flexural stiffness according to the increase in span length or load are required of steel structure, such as rolled H-beam or built-up beam. This method applies multi-stepwise contraction forces generated by the contraction of cover plates as prestressing forces after joining the cover plate applied by multi-stepwise thermal expansion that was applied to induce prestressing to structures. To perform a theoretical investigation of the prestressing force applied to a structure due to the thermal expansion and induce a multi-stepwise prestressing method using multi-stepwise thermal distribution, this study proposes a theoretical heat transfer solution for the multi-stepwise thermal distribution of cover plates and analyzes the effect of a multi-stepwise prestressing method using the multi-stepwise thermal expansion.

This research, in order to study the effects of initial shear stress of anisotropically consolidated sand that has 0.558% fines, performed several undrained static and dynamic triaxial test. To simulate the real field conditions, loose and dense samples were prepared. Besides, the cyclic shear strength of Nakdong River sand under various combinations of initial static shear stress, stress path, pore water pressure and residual strength relationship was studied. By using Bolton's theory, peak internal friction angle at failure which has considerable effects on the relative density and mean effective stress was determined. In p'- q diagram, the phase transformation line moves closer to the failure line as the specimen's initial anistropical consolidation stress increases. Loose sands were more affected than dense sands. The increase of consolidation stress ratio from 1.4 to 1.8 had an effect on liquefaction resistance strength resulting from the increase of relativity density, and showed similar CSR values in dense specimen condition.

Sliding aspects of rock slope, where large-scaled tension cracks are induced during preliminary excavation, have been analyzed. Structure of rock mass is investigated by performing the electrical resistivity survey and the orientations and positions of discontinuities are measured from DOM-drilled core log. Geological evidence far primary failure movement has been detected and clay minerals which possess swelling properties are identified through XRD analysis. Slope stability is examined by considering the orientations of discontinuities and their trace distributions on the cut-face and neighboring natural slope surface. Both orientations and positions of failure-invoking discontinuity planes, traces of which are exposed within the anticipated sliding region, are concerned fur analyzing the preferred sliding directions. Regional sliding vectors are assessed based on the relative positions of potential sliding planes in the boreholes and the general trend of anticipated failure movement of rock slope is also investigated.

Based on fermentation data for cyclosporin A production, simple Monod kinetics was proposed for both immobilized and suspended cultures. Higher value of $\mu$mas and lower value of Km suggest better catalytic activity of the immobilized cells than the parallel suspended cells. Furthermore, lower Km value in the immobilized cell system indicates higher affinity of the immobilized cells for carbon substrate as compared with the suspended cells. For immobilized cell cultures, these parameters were also utilized for the estimation of effectiveness factor, an indicator for intraparticle mass transfer resistance. Based on simulation studies, optimum radius of celite beads was turned out $100 ~ 500{\mu}m$In this simulation work, we examined the influence of biosupport size and immobilized biomass density on diffusional resistance of substrate inside the bead matrix. In order to maintain uniformly distributed cell activities in biosupport, it was essential to determine optimum slze of particle, and then to estimate the most economic loaded biomass content.

This study was investigated to evaluate the effect of electric fields application for the reduction of membrane fouling, the inactivation of microorganisms and the enhancement of particle coagulation in microfiltration/coagulation. Cumulative permeate in the case with electric field treatment showed high value compared to the case without electric field. Particularly, the increase of HRT (Hydraulic retention time) showed the increase of cumulative permeate as well as the decrease of total resistance. By electric field treatment, the amount of small particle size less than 100 ${\mu}m$ is increased and the survival fraction is reduced by the increase of electric field intensity. This may be attributed to the cleavage of particle or cytological destruction resulting from the inactivation of microorganism. Coagulant dosage of PAC compared with no electric field application could also be saved about 75% for the 95% of turbidity removal at 10 kV/cm.

A stochastic probability model based on the non-homogeneous Poisson process is represented that can correctly analyze the time-dependent linear and nonlinear behaviors of total damage over the occurrence process of loads. Introducing several types of damage intensity functions, the probability of failure and the total damage with respect to mean time to failure has been investigated in detail. Taking particularly the limit state to be the random variables followed with a distribution function, the uncertainty of that would be taken into consideration in this paper. In addition, the stochastic probability model has been straightforwardly applied to the rubble-mound breakwaters with the definition of damage level about the erosion of armor units. The probability of failure and the nonlinear total damage with respect to mean time to failure has been analyzed with the damage intensity functions for armor units estimated by fitting the expected total damage to the experimental datum. Based on the present results from the stochastic probability model, the preventive management for the armor units of the rubble-mound breakwaters would be suggested to make a decision on the repairing time and the minimum amounts repaired quantitatively.

1) The decrease in strength of netting twines at the twisted joint is regarded to be due mainly to tile frictional force between plied yarns, but tile rate of decresae is within $5\%$ in filament twines and 5 to $10\%$ in spun twines. 2) The variation of the twisted joint strength with the angle between the two adjacent bars draws a parabola flaying the minimum value at tile angle of $90^{\circ}$. The minimum value was revealed as about $90\%$ of the strength at the angle of $0^{\circ}$ in wet spun twiness, but regarded to hi negligibly small filament twines. 3) The knot strength is about $30{\pm}5\%$of the twisted joint strength.

하도에서의 하천정비 및 안전하도 유지를 위해서는 하상변동 특성을 면밀히 파악하는 것이 중요하다. 상류유역에서 하천으로 내려온 유사(流砂)는 하천의 흐름과 생태환경에 영향을 미친다. 이중 하천흐름은 사련(ripple)이나 사구(dune)의 형성에 영향을 미쳐, 하천의 지형변동인 사주에 영향을 주고 하천 식생의 성장과 발달에 직 간접적으로 간섭하게 된다. 또한, 교량, 취수장의 취수장애, 호안블럭의 침식 등과 같이 수리구조물의 안정에 영향을 주게 된다. 하천의 유사량 변화에 따라 생태계의 서식환경이 변하게 된다. 또한, 저수지에서 유입 유사량의 변화에 따라 저수지의 용적이 변하게 되어 댐의 설계 및 운영에 많은 영향을 끼치게 되며 특히 저수지 탁수관리에 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에는 4개 대권역의 주요지천 및 댐 직 하류하천 지점 중 적정구간을 선택하여 하상재료조사를 실시하였다. 하상재료 조사는 하도를 구성하는 모래와 자갈의 물리적 성질 중 유사의 이동량 및 하상의 변동, 하도설계 등에 관련 있는 입도분포, 비중 등을 측정하며 자갈하천은 표층 하상재료를 조사하고, 모래 재료는 체분석, 실트이하 재료는 BW관 등을 이용한 침강속도 분석을 실시한다. 주요지점의 중 남강의 안의 수위 우량관측소 지점의 상 하류 2km 구간을 200m마다 21개 지점의 하상재료를 채취하여 입도분석을 실시하였다. 분석결과 남강 안의지점의 표층은 여느 하천과 마찬가지로 상 하류 굵은 자갈로 구성되어 있으며 전형적인 자갈하천의 특성을 보었다. 상류200m(2000m)에서는 최소 50mm(10mm), 최대 440mm(75mm), 평균입경은 174mm(34.7mm) 이었고, 하류200m(2000m)에서의 표층입경은 최소 8mm(25mm), 최대 50mm(110mm)이며 평균입경은 27.3mm(62.5mm)로 구성되어 있었다. 전체적으로 상류지역의 입경이 하류지역보다 큰 것을 관찰할 수 있었으며 유수 흐름의 일시적인 저항이 발생하는 안의교 지점의 자갈 입경이 인근 부근보다 큰 것을 확인할 수 있었다.
