Stone columns is the ground improvement method which composed of compacted gravel or crushed stone inserted into the soft ground consisting of loose sand and clay. There are many difficulties in quantitative analysis of soil-pile interaction because settlement behavior of stone columns is affected by various parameters. In this study, various parameters of behavior of end-bearing group piles are investigated by load tests. Finally, the improved characteristics of soft ground and the influence of design parameters are investigated in this study using PR (performance ratio) value. From the PR value calculation and test results, we know that settlement behavior of stone columns is affected by area replacement ratio of composite ground, diameter of column rather than embedment ratio and mat.

The Hammett's substituent constants were analyzed for the substituted-benzoic acid, -benzene and -naphthalene by LCAO MO method. Hammett's ${\sigma}$-values have been theoretically proved to treat as the sum of independent contribution of inductive effect and resonance effect. That is, Is (static inductive effect) and Id (dynamic inductive effect) corresponding to inductive effect are chosen as net charge and approximate self atom polarizability indices respectively, and ${\Delta}E^{HOMO}$ which is the difference in HOMO energy level between substituted molecule and unsubstituted molecule as resonance effect. In conclusion, it has been found that the observed ${\sigma}$-values depend on the sum of Id, Is and ${\Delta}E^{HOMO}$.

PZT(Pb(Zr, Ti)$O_3$ 압전세라믹스는 뛰어난 압전 특성과 강유전 특성을 가지고 있어서 현재 널리 사용되고 있다. 하지만 PZT세라믹스는 큐리온도 이상에서 그 특성을 잃게 되고 높은 온도에서의 응용이 제한된다. 따라서 높은 큐리온도를 가지는 압전체를 개발하기 위한 연구가 많이 이루어지고 있다. $PbTiO_3$의 경우에는 $Bi(Zn_{0.5}Ti_{0.5})$, $BiFeO_3$등의 Bi계 세라믹스를 치환하면서 큐리온도가 올라가는 결과가 보고되고 있다. 하지만 이것은 PZT세라믹스 보다 압전 및 유전 특성이 상당히 낮다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 $(1-x)PbZrO_3-xPbTiO_3$조성에 Bi(Me)$O_3$(Me:Zn, Ti, Fe, Al)를 치환하여 압전특성 및 강유전 상전이 온도를 조사하였다. 모든 시편들은 고상반응법으로 제조하였고, 제조한 시편으로 조성에 따른 압전특성 및 유전특성의 변화를 측정하였다. 그리고 이를 통해 큐리온도는 PZT의 MPB조성근처에서 Bi계 세라믹의 치환은 $T_C$가 낮아 졌으나, Tetragonal 상을 가지고 있는 Ti-rich인 조성에서는 $T_C$가 높아지는 것을 관찰하였다.

This study was carried out to analyze vegetation and soil characteristic, and ordination of Stewartia koreana community. The Stewartia koreana community was classified into Acer mono subcommunity, Pinus densiflora subcommunity, Sapium japonicum subcommunity, and Stewartia koreana typical subcommunity. In the study sites, soil organic matter, nitrogen, available phosphorous, exchangeable K, exchangeable Ca, exchangeable Mg concentration, cation exchange capacity, and soil pH were ranged from 14.31~34.27%, 0.33~0.77%, 7.83~22.88(mg/kg), 0.23~1.07(me/100 g), 0.29~2.93(me/100 g), 0.33~1.49(me/100 g), 10.47~22.48(me/100 g), and 4.65~4.96, respectively. The area of the Acer mono subcommunity, found in highlands, showed that contained the highest organic substances, nitrogen, available phosphorous, and cation exchangeable capacity concentration among the communities. The low elevation regions where the Pinus densiflor subcommunity is formed, showed the lowest concentrations of exchangeable Ca, and Mg.

For the cases of constructing reinforced earth and gabion walls on the soft ground, an appropriate replacement area of soft ground required to maintain the stability of walls was investigated by FEM analyses. Incremental analyses were performed in FEM, in which construction sequences including consolidation of soft soil layer were simulated. As a first step to suggest the appropriate replacement area, a series of analyses for cases varying the replacement depth were conducted to examine the behaviors of wall and adjacent ground according to the construction sequence. The analysis results were, then, evaluated with the proper limiting values of displacements of wall, settlements and shear strains of ground to guarantee the stability of walls, which were specified based on the literature review. Consequently, the typical construction drawings could be suggested, in which appropriate replacement areas for varying wall heights for the ground condition investigated in this study were represented in terms of the ratio of replacement depth to the height of wall.

The protonation equilibrium of 5-substituted 2-furaldehydes is investigated spectrophotometrically in aqueous sulfuric acid at $25^{\circ}C$ and the basicity constants(p$K_{BH+}$) of the substrates is calculated by means of the excess acidity method. The basicity constant of 5-metyl-2-furaldehyde having electron donating group is larger than that of 5- nitro-2-furaldehyde having electron withdrawing group. Difference between the basicity constants(p$K_{BH+}$) of these two compounds was about 3.25 pK unit. The m value which is the degree of solvation of the protonated substrate is similar to that of acetophenone having same protonation site. The dependence of p$K_{BH+}$ on m value shows good linear cor-relation.

At fertilization, sperm penetrates into oocyte, male and female pronuclei are fused together, and mitotic division follows. However, little information is available on the interactive roles and dynamic processes between cytoplasmic and nuclear components during the pronuclear formation, migration and cell division. The assisted reproductive technologies such as, intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) and round spermatid injection(ROSI) could provides new treatments for the male infertility as well as tools for the study of basic mechanism during fertilization. Nuclear transfer can also provide a mechanism on the interactive roles between nucleus and cytoplasm since the process includes nuclear reprogrammming of differentiated cells in the enucleated oocytes. Recently, I have investigated developmental processes in porcine oocytes following fertilization parthenogenesis, ICSI, ROSI and nuclear transfer using indirect immunocytochemical and electron microscopic studies. The results could provide an insight into biological questions related with epigenesis as well as strategies for the enhancement of embryology in general such as ICSI and nuclear transfer.

Considering the ways for the possible improvement of soil test for upland crops, various methods for the evaluation of K supplying power and testing of available soil K were reviewed in terms of theoretical principles and practical usefulness of the each method. The review was also made on the characteristics of upland crops in K requirement and on the chemical properties of major korean upland and lowland rice soils in terms of K availability. Following is the few remarks drawn from the review. 1. Quite large number of methods have been known for the evaluation of K supplying power and testing for available soil K. In nature, they can be divided into two categories; capacity-based methods and intensity-based methcds. The capacity-based methods usually measure the exchangeable and some portion of nonexchangeable K, while the intensity-based methods suggest to consider the ractivity ratios of major cations in soil solution and the energy requirement for the replacement of exchangeable soil K into soil solution. 2. As methodology for extraction of interested part of soil K, chemical extraction, electrodialysis and ion exchange methods have been known. Among these, chemical extract ion is favorable because of its simplicity. However, recently suggested Electro-Ultra-Filtration method seems to merit further study for wider use for not only K but also other nutrient availability of soils. 3. The intensity-based methods, although they are more theoretical, because of their complexity, in methods may not be adapted for practical soil tests. 4. The exchangeable K which is rather simple to measure and which well reflects the status of K reserve as nonexchangeable and is immediate pool of water soluble K may be good, if not best, criterion of soil K availability to plant in common soil testing. 5. Because there are evidences that the abundance of available K alone may not be good inclication for availability of K to plant, it is recommendable to interprete the exchangeable K data as percent saturation of exchangeable K to total C. E. C. of soil for the recommend ation of K fertilizer based on soil tests. 6. Some pot and field trial results showed the trends that percent potassium saturation to total C. E. C. better serve as the parameter for K fertilizer recommendation.

The crystal structure and magnetic properties of magnetic oxide system (F $e_2$ $O_3$)$_{5}$(A $l_2$ $O_3$)$_{4-x}$(G $a_2$ $O_3$)$_{x}$)SiO has been studied using X-ray diffraction and Mossbauer spectroscopy The changes of magnetic structure by the Ga ion substitution and the temperature variation have been investigated using Mossbauer spectroscopy, and the results are compared with those of the SQUIB measurements. Results of X-ray diffraction indicated that the crystal structures of the system change from a cubic spinel type to an orthorhombic via the intermediate region. This magnetic oxide system seems to be new kind of spinel type ferrites containing high concentration of cation vacancies. Various and complicated Mossbauer spectra were observed in the samples (x>0.2) at temperatures lower than room temperature. This result could be explained by freezing of the superparamagnetic dusters. On cooling and substitution, magnetic states of the system show various and multicritical properties. Unexpected dip in magnetization curves below 50K was observed in SQUID measurements. It was interpreted as an effect of spin canting including spin freezing or collective spin behavior.ior.r.
