A series of centrifuge model tests were conducted to investigate the behavior of piled bridge abutments subjected to lateral soil movements induced by approach embankments. The effect of clay layer depth and the rate of embankment construction on piled bridge abutments are the main focus of this study. Tests were performed for two loading types: (1) incremental loading applied in six lifts to the final embankment height; (2) instant loading corresponding to the final embankment height applied in one lift quickly. A variety of instrumentations such as LVDTs, strain gauges, earth pressure transducers, and pore pressure transducers are installed in designed positions in order to clarify the soil-pile interaction and the short- and long-term behavior for piled bridge abutments adjacent to surcharge loads. Based on the results of a series of centrifuge model tests, the distribution of lateral flow induced by staged embankment construction has trapezoidal distribution. The maximum lateral soil pressure is about 0.75$\gamma$H at surcharge loading stage, and about 0.35 $\gamma$H at over 80% consolidated stage.

By LC/MS/MS, the analytical method of sildenafil and its analogues (homosildenafil, vardenafil and tadalafil) used as used medical treatment of impotence was established. electrosprary ionization (ESI) and atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) as a ionization method were applied. Several parameter were varied and the sensitivity and reproducibility were compared. In LC/ESI-MS method, capillary voltage, cone voltage, extractor, entrance and RF lens to create appropriate productr ions for multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) were variable parameter, but the formation of the other product ions except the precursor ion could not detect. And the value of entrance, collision energy, exit, corona voltage, cone voltage, extractor, RF lens, cone gas, and desolvation gas in APCI mode were varied, only the creation pattern of fragment ions by the change of RF lens value were detected, and the limit of detection was decreased due to the increase of S/N. Ten millimole ammonium formate (pH 4.8):acetonitrile=70:30 by isocratic elution in HPLC system was shown the maximum sensitivity in MS, the detection limit of sildenafil, homosildenafil, vardenafil and tadalafil obtained by ESI-MRM were 0.10, 0.025, 0.025, and $0.25{\mu}g/mL$ at S/N>5, respectively.

BACKGROUND: Oxycarboxin(5,6-dihydro-2-methyl-N-phenyl-1,4-oxathiin-3-carboxamide-4,4-dioxide) as oxanthiin is a systemic fungicide commonly used for control of various pathogens in agronomic and horticultural crops. In an effort to develop an analytical method to trace the fungicide, a method using HPLC equipped with UVD/MS was studied. METHODS AND RESULTS: Oxycarboxin was extracted with acetone from hulled rice, soybean, Kimchi cabbage, green pepper, and apple samples. The extract was diluted with saline water, followed by liquid-liquid extraction with methylene chloride. Florisil column chromatography was employed for the purification of the extracts. Oxycarboxin was determined on a Zorbax SB-AQ $C_{18}$ column by HPLC with UVD. Accuracy of the proposed method was validated by the recovery tests from crop samples fortified with oxycarboxin at 3 levels per crop. CONCLUSION: Mean recoveries ranged from 78.3% to 96.1% in five representative agricultural commodities. The coefficients of variation were less than 10%, and limit of quantitation of oxycarboxin was 0.04 mg/kg. A confirmatory technique using LC/MS with selected-ion monitoring was also provided to clearly identify the suspected residue. The method was reproducible and sensitive to determine the residue of oxycarboxin in agricultural commodities.

Fate of fenarimol, chlorothalinol, and ethoprophos sprayed to control disease and pest was studied in a agroforest culture field of Jangsu-gun, Jeollabuk-do, Korea. Concentrations of fenarimol, chlorothalinol, and ethoprophos in runoff water ranged mostly to 0.2 mg/L at the first rainfall-runoff event. And then was rapidly decreased than detection limit at 60 days after the application. The fenarimol and chlorothalonil residue in soil was dissipated to below detection limit at 30 days after the application. But ethoprophos was decreased to below detection limit at 135 days after the application. The concentrations of experimental pesticides were highly detected in agroforest culture field than in open culture field. It is assumed that experimental pesticides were strongly adsorbed by organic matter such as fulvic acid and humic acid.

This research compared and analyzed safety ratio of slope with Talren97 and SoilWorks based on limit equilibrium analysis and Midas GTS based on finite element analysis. For the analysis variables, there are slope height, berm condition, soil parameter, groundwater level, slope inclination. All of slope stability analysis were performed by dividing into dry season and rainy season. As the result of the analysis of Talren97 and SoilWorks based on same theory, safety ratio of slope shows same value, so there was no difference between the programs. In comparison with limit equilibrium analysis, the result of finite element analysis showed somewhat high ratio of safety and it was higher by about 2.4% averagely. The difference between the result of limit equilibrium analysis and that of finite element analysis is in the range which can ignored in practical work.

Demand analyses often assume perfect substitution and some level of aggregation before analysis and data collection. Earlier works on this subject are carried out in the context of ordinary demand systems. However, perfect substitution is a degenerate special case in the systems and it is much more easily handled in a system of marginal value functions and no previous analysis has used the marginal value functions to test for perfect substitution and make possible aggregation with prior restrictions. In this article, we present the empirical results on a system of marginal value functions in fisheries and pose testable results of perfect substitution and aggregation. The contribution of this article is new establishment of a set of restrictions implying perfect substitutability among all commodities and the application to the problem of commodity aggregate. A system of marginal value functions is estimated in fisheries and its implication of perfect substitution is reasonably drawn.

The purpose of culvert design is to determine optimum size for a safe drainage of flood discharge. The present method of culvert design in Korea is generally carried out by using "Road Drainage Design" of Korea Expressway Corporation (1991), which is based on the manual of Federal Highway Association (FHWA) of USA. However, this method may result in subjective error because of using graphs and the usage of nomograph can be a major obstacle for computer modelling. Some errors found in the previous works of culvert design are corrected, and a new logic has been developed for a simple determination of culvert size in this study. FHWA (1985) presents a nomograph to determine the critical water depth and the velocity head for a circular pipe, but in this study simple explicit equations have been developed to determine both respectively.

We constructed climagraphs for 16 regions of Korea by using the average monthly minimum air temperature, maximum air temperature and global radiation. We characterized the outside climate requirements corresponding to the climate requirements of crops in greenhouses. The climagraphs allow to decide the appropriate climate periods for greenhouse cultivation without heating and cooling equipment. These graphs may be used for analyzing climatic characteristic of a given area, selecting the suitable region and greenhouse and making a rational plan for greenhouse cropping in Korea. We found difficulty in deciding the beginning and end of greenhouse heating and cooling period due to insufficient references.

In order to analyze the flammability limit and structure of the gaseous methane-gaseous oxygen diffusion flame formed through a shear coaxial injector, combustion experiments were carried out according to the condition of injector recess and propellant mass-flow rate. As a result, it was confirmed that stable anchored flame was observed even at the high oxygen Reynolds number as the propellant momentum flux ratio increased, and that the recess had no significant influence on the flame shape and flammability limit. The anchored flame visualized through a chemiluminescence showed the maximum OH radical emission intensity at a specific position, irrespective of the propellant injection condition, and the radical intensity was greatly reduced by the injector recess.

This study proposed an estimation method of allowable wave height for loading and unloading of the ship and evaluation of effective working days considering moored ship motion that is affected by sip sizes, mooring conditions, wave periods and directions. The method was examined validity by comparison with wave field data at pier $8^{th}$ in Pohang New Harbor. The wave field data obtained with wave height of 0.10~0.75 m and wave period of 7~13 s in ship sizes of 800~35,000 ton when a downtimes have occurred. On the other hand, the results of allowable wave height for loading and unloading of the ship in this method have obtained with wave heights of 0.19~0.50 m and wave periods of 8~12 s for ship sizes of 5,000, 10,000 and 30,000 ton. Thus this method well reproduced the field data respond to various a ship sizes and wave periods. And the results of this in Korea are didn't respond to various the ship sizes and wave periods, and we h method tended to decrease in 16~62 percent when have considered long wave, and it is decreased in 0~46 percent when didn't consider long wave than design standards in case of the ship sizes of 5,000~30,000 ton, wave period of 12 s and wave angle of $75^{\circ}$. The allowable wave heights for loading and unloading of the ship proposed by design standards in Korea have found that overestimated on smaller than 10,000 ton. On the other hand, the rate of effective working days considering ship motion at pier $8^{th}$ in Pohang New Harbor reduced in 6.5 percent when compare with the results without considering ship motion.
