Marine magnetic surveys provide a rapid and cost-effective method for pioneer geophysical survey for many purposes. Sea-surface magnetometers offer high accuracy but are limited to measuring the scalar total magnetic field and require dedicated cruise missions. Shipboard three-component magnetometers, on the other hand, can collect vector three components and applicable to any cruise missions. However, correcting for the ship's magnetic field, particularly viscous magnetization, still remains a challenge. This study proposes a new additional correction method for ship's viscous magnetization effect in vector data acquired by shipboard three-component magnetometer. This method utilizes magnetic data collected simultaneously with a sea-surface magnetometer providing total magnetic field measurements. Our method significantly reduces deviations between the two datasets, resulting in corrected vector anomalies with errors as low as 7-25 nT. These tiny errors are possibly caused by the vector magnetic anomaly and its related viscous magnetization. This method is expected to significantly improve the accuracy of shipborne magnetic surveys by providing corrected vector components. This will enhance magnetic interpretations and might be useful for understanding plate tectonics, geological structures, hydrothermal deposits, and more.

The appropriate description of the stress-anisotropy and time-dependent behavior of cohesive soils is very important in representing the real soil behavior. In this study, two constitutive relations have been incorporated based on the generalized viscous theory: one is the plastic constitutive relation adopted to capture the stress-anisotropy with a few model parameters; the other is the rate-dependent constitutive relation adopted to describe the strain rate-dependent behavior, an important time-dependent behavior in cohesive soils. The incorporated and proposed constitutive model has relatively a few model parameters and their values need not to be re-evaluated at different strain rates. The proposed model has been verified and investigated with the anisotropic triaxial test results obtained by using the artificial homogeneous specimens.

A numerical calculation is carried out for the analysis of 3-dimensional compressible flow field in axial-flow rotating blades by using finite element method. The calculation of flow in impellers plays a dominant role in the theoretical research and design of turbomachines. Three-dimensional flow fields can be obtained by the quasi-three-dimensional iterative calculation of the flows both on blade-to-blade stream surfaces and hub-to-shroud stream surfaces with the introduction of viscous loss model in order to consider a loss due to viscosity of fluid. In devising the loss model, four primary sources of losses were identified: (1) blade profile loss (2) end wall loss (3) secondary flow loss (4) tip-leakage loss. For the consideration of an axially parabolic distribution of loss, the results of present calcullation are well agreed with the results by experiment, thus the introduction of loss model is proved to be valid.

In this study, tile characteristics of three dimensional flow fields in centrifugal flump impeller are investigated by numerically. Detailed analysis and understanding of flow field in centrifugal pump are very important to predict performance of components. The three dimensional viscous fluid flow in centrifugal pump is distingushed isentropic process region from irreversible process region by wall shear effect, secondary flow, centrifugal and Coriolis forces, variation of boudary layers. Development of low momentum region by viscous fluid flow in the centrifugal impeller causes stall and blockage which is irreversible process region, and resulting in decrease of the performance and efficiency of centrifugal pump. Especially, the result is that Coriolis and centrifugal forces are most powerful factors which are increasing the irreversible region.

A new design technique is presented to stabilize cut slopes in cohesive soils by use of piles. The design method can consider systematically factors such as the gradient and height of slope, the number and position of pile's rows, the interval and stiffness of piles, etc. The design method is established on the basis of the stability analysis of slope with rows of piles. The basic concept applied in the stability analysis is that the soil across the open space between piles can be retained by the arching action of the soil, when a row of piles is installed in soil undergoing lateral movement such as landslides. To obtain the whole stability of slope containing piles, two kinds of analyses for the pile-stability and the slope- stability must be performed simultaneously. An instrumentation system has been installed at a cut slope in cohesive soil, which has been designed according to the presented design process. The behavior of both the piles and the soil across the open space between piles is observed precisely. The result of instrumentation shows that the cut slope has been stabilized by the contribution of stabilizing effect of piles on the slope stability in cohesive soil.

Grouting has been widely used to enhance the strength of the ground and prevent waterflow into the underground space in the geotechnical engineering field. Cement with bentonite can be considered a helpful grouting material because the bentonite has a swelling ability with water. Therefore, it is essential to evaluate the characteristics of grouting materials according to the mixing ratio for a successful grouting process. In this regard, the study investigated the viscosity and bleeding characteristics of grouting materials according to the mixing ratio (i.e., water/cement ratio and bentonite/cement ratio). In the experimental result, the viscosity increases with decreasing water/cement ratio and rising proportion of bentonite by weight of cement. However, the results of the bleeding ratio show the tendency is inversely proportional to the viscosity results. Bentonite was explored in terms of the viscosity and bleeding criterion. This result is expected to be meaningful to determine the optimized mixing ratio of bentonite-cement in the grouting field.

The influence of cholesterol on the physicochemical properties of the oleic acid was clarified through the measurements of density, viscosity, IR, $^1H$ NMR, self-diffusion coefficient for the oleic acid samples containing a small amount of additives such as cholesterol, cholestanol, cholestane, cholesteryl oleate, benzene, and ethanol. Cholesterol, possessing one OH group and one double bond in its molecular structure, largely increased the viscosity and reduced the self-diffusion coefficient and the intramolecular movement of oleic acid. Oleic acid forms a complex with cholesterol as well as with ethanol. On the basis of these complex formations and the existence of the clusters composed of oleic acid dimers, it was known the role and the fundamental mechanism of cholesterol to the intermolercular and intramolecular movements of oleic acid in the liquid state.

Effect of gamma irradiation on porridge viscosity was studied. Vegetable, beef and pine nut dry flour porridges were irradiated at 0, 2.5, 5, 7.5 and 10 kGy, and rheological characteristics and sensory qualities of irradiated porridge were evaluated. Hunter color lightness were decreased, while redness were increased in dry flour porridge with the increase of irradiation dose. Firmness, consistency, cohesiveness and viscosity of dry flour porridge were significantly decreased with the increase of irradiation dose (p<0.05). Vegetable, beef and pine nut dry flour porridges at dose of 10 kGy reduced the viscosity with 93%, 71% and 55%, respectively Irradiation greatly reduced the viscosity of porridges, probably by starch depolymerization. Irradiation increased the total solids and thus, can improve the calorie up to 30 ㎉. Gamma irradiation was effective in enhancing calorie value of porridge due to reduction of viscosity. As a result of sensory evaluation, overall acceptability and the quality characteristics of irradiated porridges (up to S kGy) were not significantly different from those of the control (p<0.05). In the vegetable porridge, the irradiated porridge at dose of 2.5 kGy was a significantly better overall acceptability than the non-irradiated porridge (p<0.05).

For the numerical computation of three-dimensional compressible flow field within a blade row in a centrifugal compressor, a quasi 3-dimensional solver which combines a reversible B-B flow and an irreversible H-S flow using finite element methods was developed. In a reversible B-B flow, the governing coordinates are modified in order to be applied to any type of turbomachinery, and two kinds of stream functions are introduced in order to make the Kutta condition exactly satisfied. In an irreversible H-S flow, the changes of entropy in the irreversible governing equations are determined not by empirical source but by the theoretical treatment of dissipation forces. The dissipation forces are obtained from the distribution of shear stresses in the flow passage which are given from the wall shear stresses using the exponential functions. A more accurate quasi-3-dimensional solver is established where the effect of body forces is involved in the non-axisymmetric H-S flow. Some numerical results obtained from authors' previous studies for axial flow machines assure that the present method is able to predict well as long as the flow is subsonic and not under strong viscous effect.
