Less Favored Area(LFA) is a newly shaped regional concept and just appearing as a new community design target, where the topogeographical, industry-locational condition and the daily living environment have been outstandingly inferior to any other regions. Community Design(CD) principles that cover a spatial order of settlements are introduced in this study when the CD concept is applied to the LFA. The study puts a great stress on the horizontal and vertical order of communal spatial units and living activities oriented to residents'socio-economic activities, on which a CD district and an inner spatial organization of community is based. Therefore the various relationships between residents' activities and particular places, such as that between agricultural production and land, access to living services and community-outer settlements, is analysed through the field study. The emphatic point is that the spatial unit and organization of community, namely settlement order is casted not only by the horizontal coverage but also by the vertical hierarchy forming a cubic-like spatial order. Applying the CD idea to LFA has limit because the CD has been oriented on urban architectural style and community participation process. Nevertheless, that has a new possibility to understand the fundamental and archetypical change of a spatial pattern of community uncovering the accumulated layer of settlement order especially in the drastically changed mountain community from past to now.

최근 유가 상승 및 에너지 확보, 경질 원유 생산량 및 부존량 감소로 인하여 대체 석유자원의 개발에 대한 연구 및 관심이 급증하고 있다. 기존의 연소 방식이 아닌 연료를 청정 가스로 전환하여 이용하는 가스화 기술 개발이 진행되고 있다. 석탄은 매장량이 세계적으로 풍부 할뿐만 아니라, 지역적으로도 편재되어 있지 않은 에너지원인 석탄을 활용하는 새로운 발전기술로 환경보전성이 우수하며, 효율이 기존의 발전 시스템보다 뛰어난 에너지 이용기술로 각광받는 분야이다. 석탄 슬러리는 분쇄한 석탄을 믹서를 사용하여 소량의 계면활성제를 첨가하여 제조한다. CWM 제조용 석탄은 대체로 고유수분 5%이하, 회분 10%이하의 석탄이 추천되고 있으며, 수분이나 회분량, 산소함량, 입자의 세공율이 증가할수록 고농도화에 불리한 것으로 나타나고 있다. 연료적 가치를 향상시키기 위해서는 물의 함량을 적게, 즉 석탄의 농도를 증가시키는 것이 중요하다. 일반적인 CWM 규격으로는 석탄농도 65% 이상이 바람직한 것으로 보고되고 있다. 석탄가스화에 연료로 사용되는 CWM의 연료성상 및 미립화 정도, 제조 조건 등에 따라 많은 차이가 발생한다. 본 실험에서는 1.0T/D급 습식 분류층가스화기에서 이용할 CWM의 제조를 위하여 소형 믹서를 이용하여 석탄의 농도에 따른 점도 변화와 석탄의 분쇄입자 크기에 따른 점도 변화, 계면활성제와 첨가제의 농도에 따른 점도 특성을 실험하였다.

일반적으로 우리나라 수해는 미개수 하천 지역의 외수침수와 더불어 홍수유출 단면 부족 및 내수배제 불량 등이 주요 원인이지만 하천 내 주요 수공구조물인 교량이나 보 등에 의한 홍수위 상승으로 발생한다. 특히, 교량은 도로의 교통기능에 중점을 둔 설계와 시공으로 수리학적으로 매우 불리한 위치에 건설되기도 하며 기존 교량폭의 확장이나 인접한 위치에 다른 교량들을 추가로 건설하여 하천의 한정된 통수단면적이 점차적으로 감소하는 등 하천관리에 많은 어려움이 가중되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 FLUMEN 모형을 이용하여 교량이 홍수위 상승 및 홍수범람에 미치는 영향과 이에 따른 제외지 침수면적의 변화를 파악하였다. 감천과 직지사천이 합류되는 구간을 대상으로 지형자료는 총 7곳의 교량을 고려하여 구축한 후 교량 유 무에 따른 조건별 부정류 모의를 실시하였다. 모형의 적용 결과 교량 건설에 따른 하폭 감소율은 김천철교 지점에서 10.92%로 가장 컸으며, 수위는 김천대교 지점에서 0.15m로 가장 크게 상승하였다. 또한 경부고속국도 주변의 수위는 경부고속철도 교량의 신설로 인해 140%까지 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 홍수범람 모의 결과 교량 건설 전과 후에 제방 월류에 의한 침수가 발생하였고 교량 건설 후 범람면적과 침수심이 증가하였으며, 홍수범람의 주원인은 하천의 통수단면적이 작기 때문으로 나타났다.

To designate rural landscape spatially, land use and topographic features for 383 of "Ri"s or "Dong", which is a basic administrative unit in Korea, were analyzed using GIS application. We have categorized rural landscape into three types such as agricultural, natural and urban landscape by land use. On the basis of spatial landscape pattern, rural area could be classified into 6 groups of Mountainous area (MA), Mountainous village area (MV), Developing mountainous village area (DM), Plain agricultural area (PA), Developing plain village area (DP) and Urbanized area (UA) according to the ratios of land for agricultural and urban use as the criteria. In MA, the ratio of upland area including orchard was slightly larger than that of paddy, while that of paddy was about 1.5 times larger than upland in other groups. Forested area was distributed more than two-thirds among natural landscape area in MA, MV and DM. In plain types (PA and DP), the ratio of irrigated paddy was extremely larger than partially irrigated paddy and the ratio of water body area among the natural landscape area was two times as large as that of forested area. The ratio of land for industrial and livestock facilities among urban landscape area were 20% or more in MV, DM and DP, and it means that these facilities are mainly distributed in the developing ru ral area where residents and industry are closely related each other. According to the relative ratio of sloped land of 6 categorized areas, the MA area have lots of land with E and F slopes and MV and DM have all grades of sloped land evenly distributed in relative to other types of rural landscape. It has been showed that PA, DP and UA occupied more than two-thirds of land with A or B slope. In case of the analysis of topological distribution in 6 types of rural landscape, there were overwhelmingly lager highland areas in MA. Conclusively, we have confirmed that 6 types of rural landscape classified by land use pattern in 3 categorized areas such as agricultural, natural and urban landscape area would be useful for the management of rural area. For development of sustainable agriculture and the preservation of rural amenity, proper management ways should be properly applied according to rural landscape patterns.

Urban expansion has caused environmental problems, traffic jam and real estate. Trend analysis of Urban expansion is needed for analysis and prediction of the existing problem-solving, urban planning and land use. In this study, We constructed database based on MOE(Minister of environment)'s landcover(1980's, 2000's), 1: 25,000 digital topographical map using of DEM and data of the National Statistical Office for urban and build up expand analysis of South Korea. As a result, The rate of increase in population of Gyeonggi-do, Incheon and Ulsan are high but Jeollanam-do is low. Area of development zone was 2.15 fold increase in comparison with before it. Slope aspect is south or east and urban expansion was increase in district such as Chungcheongnam-do, Gyeonggi-do, Jeollanam-do. Existing road of accessibility was high than development zone. Metropolitan city developre it. In conclusion, we found that South Korea urban expansion was developed from metropolitan city. In natural topographical conditions, the development was progress advantageous zone to disadvantageous zone. Also, we found that population was rapidly increase with new development as the center zone in urban expansion zone.

To be design the slope, the area distributed the mica schist which was metamorphosed by shale or mudstone must carefully consider the stability. Mica schist is another unstable rock for slope by schistosity, cleavage, axial plane of a fold etc. In general mica schist contains the swelling clay minerals such as smectite, vermiculite and montmorillonite. These minerals make the slope unstable. At OO tunnel construction area for the rail way of the Kyungbu high speed train, the slope of mica schist is very unstable by the distribution phenomena of the discontinuous plane such as joints which are 1-5 cm spacing and thrust and strike-slip fault. By the drilling core of this area, most RQD have 0-20%.

The food self-support rate on the basis of cereals in Korea is approximately 27%, which will threaten the national food security. The dramatic increase in population accompanied by rapid industrialization in developing countries has caused imbalances in the supply of food and energy. To cope with these global crises over food and energy supplies as well as environmental problems, it is urgently required to develop new environmentally friendly industrial crop varieties to be grown on marginal lands including desertification areas for sustainable development. Sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.) ranks seventh in annual production among food crops in the world. Its wide adaptability on marginal lands and rich nutritional content provide a high potential for preventing malnutrition and enhancing food security in the developing countries. In addition, sweetpotato can be developed as a bioreactor to produce valuable industrial materials including bio-ethanol, functional feed and antioxidants by molecular breeding. In this respect, we focus on the molecular breeding of sweetpotato with multi-function on marginal lands. The strategies for development of environmentally friendly industrial sweetpotato will be introduced and discussed.
