The ecological changes in the ocean due to the drastic global warming require that action be taken to sustain the productivity of fisheries. Proper ocean facilities could help prevent the loss of the expenditures made on marine aquaculture and reduce the related compensation for various ocean conditions. The aim of this study was to develop a floating ocean wave-breaker using an eco-friendly concrete and conducting a site survey, a structural analysis, and a test of towing the tank. As a result, the wave at the fish farm would be reduced. The results of the holding power of anchors and the capability of moving the floating structures were considered in the design of the wave-breaker. The analyses of the material properties of concrete and the steel structures, as well as the CAPEX and OPEX analyses of the manufacturing and operation processes confirmed the superiority of the floating concrete wave-breaker. In particular, this study demonstrated that the concrete floating breakwater can protect the fish farm against typhoons and reverse-waves, thereby reducing losses of the fish.

To support cross potential array and direct potential array, the array for leakage detection of all kinds of water facilities is proposed and it is named as the D-Lux array. The D-Lux array data are arranged to a coloured matrix and it is called the D-Lux view. Low potential difference of anomalous zone shown in D-Lux view implies the indication of leakage zone. Furthermore, for an intuitive interpretation of D-Lux array, equipotential distribution map is made by using D-Lux and direct potential array data. Equipotential distribution map makes us possible to predict import point, export point and the path of water leakage that we could have not anticipated in D-Lux view and the graphs. The water tank experiment and numerical analysis were carried out as preparatory experiment and the field explorations were conducted at a concrete weir and a fill dam. As a result, effective and specific detection of leakage path was possible for the concrete weir and the fill dam.

This study deals with the analysis of color-difference and physical property of anti-corrosion coatings using at inside of concrete tank for drinking water. Because anti-corrosion coatings are effected by chemical attack, color and physical property are changed. So in this study when epoxy resin coatings of 3 types were received chemical attack by Cl- and NaOH, we present the co-relationship between color-difference and bond strength. For this study, we used the colorimetry, which can measure the degree of color difference on surface of materials. As the results, in case of Cl-, color change is appeared, bond strength also is decreased. From this experiment, we could know that color change due to chemical aging has the deep relationship with physical performance(bond strength) materials. further researches are needed.

An integral head loss test in a test apparatus was conducted to simulate chemical effects on a head loss across a strainer in a pressurized water reactor (PWR) containment water pool after a loss of coolant accident (LOCA). The test was conducted during 30 days in the condition of a short spray, a long spray, and no materials with chemical effects. The result exhibited that the head loss was affected on amounts of the exposed materials according to spray conditions. XRD analysis of the collected precipitates showed that the precipitates were phosphate compounds. Comparison of the head loss with dissolved species concentration showed that high increase rate of the head loss resulted from the corrosion of aluminum and zinc but slow increase rate of the head loss resulted from the precipitates induced by Si, Mg, and Ca from leaching reaction at NUKON and concrete after passivation of metal specimens.

We observed the succession and appearence species of the marine benthic diatoms for the effective seed production of shellfish culture on wave plates in indoor mass culture tanks. Every five days, the existence species and densitiy of diatoms were counted during the 20 culture days. Experimental conditions were 8.5 $\pm$ 0.3$^{\circ}C$ of water temperature, 1.0250$\~$1.0260 of specific gravity, 2,200$\~$13,000 lux of light intensity. The total density of appearence species was rapidly increased with the lapse of time. However, the number of appearence species decreased on the 20th day. The diatoms observed were 10 species; Navicula sp. of, viridula, Cylindrotheca closterium, Licmophora sp., Pleurosisma normnii, Bacillaria Paradoxa Asterionella glacialis, Stephanopuis sp. cf, turris, Entomoneis sp., Odontella aurita and Cocconeis sp, cf, scutellum. Of them, Navicula sp, of, viridula was most dominant throughout the experiment.

Recently, geophysical prospecting methods have played very important roles in civil and environmental engineering problems. Technical advances in geophysical instruments and computer system made it possible to get underground images with very high resolution far purposes to resolve those problems. It was possible partly due to ever increasing demand for development of technologies needed to precisely detect polluted areas and prevent ground-related accidents. Based on the same demand, integrity tests of cast-in place piles draw more attention and development of accurate test procedures is required. Ultrasonic methods is one of most advanced non-destructive procedures. In the paper, a geotomography method is employed for the cast-in place pile integrity test using ultrasonic waves. The image of pile interior is scanned and scrutinized far better and more accurate decision in the cast-in place pile integrity. In this study, we firstly examined the accuracy fur tomography program with idealized synthetic models built in water tank: their position and size were changed in the tank and each case was studied. In the next stage, real concrete pile models were fabricated and images of anomaly areas inside the pile were scanned to successfully locate those areas.

The experiment was carried out at the Yeongnam Crop Experiment Station in 1984 and 1990 to obtain the basic information on kneeing responses of rice cultivars and Echinochloa species. Kneeing response of rice cultivars was not directly related with cultivar group(Tongil-type vs Japonica-type), maturity, culm length, or other agronomic traits and thus concluded that kneeing ability was soly peculiar cultivar character based on its genetic background. Cultivars having relatively great kneeing ability were Yeongdeog 1(Japonica), Seogwangbyeo(Tongil-type). Somjinbyeo(Japonica), Pungsanbyeo(Tongil -type), Hangangchalbyeo(Tongil-type), etc. while these for low kneeing ability cultivars were Chilseoungbyeo, Gayabyeo, and Samgangbyeo that were all belonged to Tongil-types, respectively. Two Echinochloa species were not much differed from each other in kneeing ability. However, kneeing ability of Echinochloa species was much greater than rice cultivars. Kneeing ability of Echinochloa species was not differed by culm node order : all the visual nodes(5~6 nodes) exhibited similar kneeing ability having more or less 30${\circ}$ in each node.

An analytic solution for the interaction between an array of circular piles made by joining trapezoid steel pipes (TSP) and waves was obtained using an eigenfunction expansion method. First, an analytic model for the wave scattering of multiple piles fixed at arbitrary positions was derived, and then a simplified model was obtained assuming that an infinite array of identical piles were deployed perpendicular to the propagating direc- tion of incident waves. A regular wave experiment was conducted using an experimental model with a scale ratio of 1/100 in a two-dimensional wave tank to verify the analytic solutions. The analytic results and experimental results were qualitatively consistent with each other. Using a developed analytic model, we examined the wave force on the multiple piles and the wave deformation in front of the arrayed piles. The period for the installation is greatly reduced as the TSP pile can be prefabricated in a factory. In particular, it is possible to install at the soft seabed. A seawall structure using arrayed TSP piles will be an ideal complement for a concrete seawall in future.
