This study was carried out to compare the meal management attitudes among the mothers(41 years of age) who had middle school students between in industrial complex and in non-industrial complex. The subjects of each group were composed of 192 mothers Living in Ansan city in Korea, and this study was performed by self-administered questionnaire. The results of the present study were as follows: (1) Monthly family income and education level of parents were lower in industrial complex-family(ICF) than in non-industrial complex-family (NICF). The mean age of mothers and family size were similar in two groups, but the frequency of mothers employed was higher in ICF than in NICF Most mothers in ICF worked as a manual- or skilled-laborer. (2) The mothers in ICF tended to have less positive attitude in sewing balanced meals to their families than those in NICF. The score of nutritional knowledge was lower in mothers in ICF than those in NICF. (3) The percentage of expense for purchasing staple foods to total expense of foods tended to be higher in ICF than in NICF. Engel's coefficient was higher, and the frequency and expense for eating out was lower in ICF than in NICF (4) The mothers in ICF did not try to use their time and energy efficiently for meal management. (5) The mothers in ICF were less active in sewing the pleasurable meals including the provision of various cooking methods, flavors, and temperatures, to their families, than those in NICF. Above findings show that family environment such as industrial complex-families and non-industrial complex-families influences the meal management attitudes of mothers. The mothers in ICF had a less positive altitudes for scientific meal managements than those in NICF even though they had the limited resources including money, time and energy for meal management because most mothers in ICF had a job that were paid low salary and finished irregularly or late. Therefore, these results underscore the need to provide the sound nutritional education for the mothers in ICF with respect to reasonable meal management for 'optimal nutrition of family'. In addition, the government should try to make the various welfare policies to improve nutritional status of low income famines including the poor industrial complex-families.

The carbonation velocity is produced an effect on carbon dioxide($CO_2$) density of surrounding near structures, the concrete quality and types of structures and this study was accomplished to draw a conclusion for estimated formula of carbonation velocity coefficient with various factors by the concrete quality on the base of the data of the durability surveyed in Korea. From the results of analysis of carbonation velocity, the followings were appeared. It is analyzed that carbonation velocity of the structures under urban area is 1.5 times faster than the rural area in the bridges case and it is 2.5 times faster than the rural area in the tunnels case. And the order of carbonation velocity of the structures under urban area is the buildings, the tunnels, the bridges and they are evaluated to progress about 2.7 times and 1.3 times faster than the bridges. In the rural area, the bridges are evaluated to progress about 1.3 times faster than the tunnels and it is analyzed that the carbonation velocity of the upper structures of the bridges under urban area is about 1.3 times faster than lower structures. The results which is compared to estimated formula of carbonation velocity coefficient of Kishitani equation which is generally applied for convert compressive strength into W/C ratios, most of those velocity of structures is faster than the results of Kishitani equation.

In this paper, human exposure and risk of environmental pollutants were predicted using an emission assessment model and multimedia fate model. Eight environmental pollutants, acetaldehyde, acrylonitrile, aniline, benzene, carbon tetrachloride, dichloromethane, formaldehyde and vinyl chloride, were selected for the risk assessment in an urban and industrial area in Korea. The emission rate of target pollutants were estimated after considering a variety of point and non-point emission sources including geographical information. A spatially refined multimedia fate model was applied to predict the environmental concentration and fate of pollutants. Hazard data of target materials were obtained from the IRIS(Integrated Risk Information System) database. Using the modeling results with hazard data, the human risks were assessed. Modeling results demonstrate that the considerable risks were observed for several pollutants.

도시화에 따른 토지이용패턴의 변화로 불투수면적이 증가하여 빗물의 침투량이 감소하고, 유출량은 증가하는 등 집중호우시 침수피해를 야기하게 된다. 또한 오염원의 증가로 수질오염과 지하수고갈에 따른 건천화 등 부정적 효과를 초래하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 최근 기후변화에 따라 물순환 체계가 변화하고 있으며, 이로 인해 도시의 홍수 및 가뭄이 극심해지고 시민의 삶의 질도 위협받고 있다. 우리나라의 경우 지속적으로 도시화 및 불투수면적이 증가하고 있으며, 집중호우의 발생빈도 또한 높아 심각한 수자원 물재와 홍수피해위험이 높다. 이에 도시의 물환경 변화 및 왜곡된 물순환 체계를 지속가능하도록 개선해야 할 필요성이 제기되었다. 환경부 및 국토부 등 정부기관에서는 물환경지속가능성을 위하여 저영향개발 기술요소를 도입하고 적용하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 침수위험지역의 저영향개발기법을 도입하여 유출저감 효과를 모의하고, 경제성 분석을 하였다. 본 연구의 대상지역은 경상남도 김해시 안동지구이며, 면적 364.2ha, 투수층면적 160.7ha, 불투수층면적 203.5ha로 불투수율은 55.90%로 산정되었다. 대상지역인 안동지구 우수관로현황 조사결과 (30년빈도 강우강도 적용) 관로의 통수능 검토시 전체관로 26.97km 중 통수능 부족관로는 15.60km로 전체대비 약 57.8%로 나타났다. 안동지구 내 우수관거는 간선관로의 경우 10년빈도, 지선관로의 경우 5년빈도로 설계, 시공되어 있으므로 각종 공단이 입지한 시가지인 안동지구는 도로포장등으로 인해 불투수층이 대부분을 차지해, 강우시 도로표면 유출수의 증대로 침수피해가 가중되는 것으로 판단되었다. 이에 저영향개발기법을 적용하여 맨홀로 유입되는 직접유출(DCIA, Directly Connected Impervious Area)를 줄이고, 유지관리 등을 고려하여 경제성을 평가하여 향후 침수위험지구 관거개량시 저영향개발기법을 활용할 수 있도록 하고자 한다.

The Black-tailed gull (Larus crassirostris) is one of the most common gull species in the Northeast Asia and classified as LC (least concern) in the IUCN Red List. The bird has become a useful indicator for marine environmental pollution and habitat disruption, since the human activities impacted marine environments. Here we show that the black-tailed Gull has 6 haplotypes and some rare haplotypes are locally limited implying that the bird may not disperse far. This study may be the first report on population genetic study of Black-tailed Gull in Korea and could be used as the baseline data for monitoring and genetic study on the bird as an environmental indicator.

Increasing marine transportation of dangerous goods using containers causes fire accidents on ships due to leakage of dangerous materials. In IMO (MSC.93), all vessels that are to be loaded five or more containers on weather deck area after 1 January 2016 are required to have a fire extinguishing system called Water Mist Lance (WML) on board. In this study, numerical analysis is performed to design WML with optimal edge radius of curvature using LS-DYNA. The analysis results for the three models with 10 mm, 15 mm and 20 mm lengths of the edge part showed that the only model with 15 mm length penetrated the wall of the container and did not cause damage to the edge of the WML. In the future, based on the results of this study, we will make a WML of prototype and conduct a performance test. And we will continue to improve the problems.

This study evaluated the feasibility of combined use of physical separation and soil washing to remediate heavy metals (Pb and Cu) contaminated soil in a military shooting range. The soils were classified into two types based on the level of heavy metal concentrations: a higher contaminated soil (HCS) with Pb and Cu concentrations of 6,243 mg/kg and 407 mg/kg, respectively, and a lower contaminated soil (LCS) with their concentrations of 1,658 mg/kg and 232 mg/kg. Pb level in both soils exceeded the regulatory limit (700 mg/kg), and its concentration generally increased with decreasing soil particle size. However, in some cases, Pb concentrations increased with increasing soil particle size, presumably due to the presence of residues of bullets in the soil matrix. As a pretreatment step, a shaking table was used for physical separation of soil to remove bullet residues while fractionating the contaminated soils into different sizes. The most effective separation and fractionation were achieved at vibration velocity of 296 rpm/min, the table slope of 7.0°, and the separating water flow rate of 23 L/min. The efficiency of ensuing soil washing process for LCS was maximized by using 0.5% HCl with the soil:washing solution mixing ratio of 1:3 for 1 hr treatment. On the contrary, HCS was most effectively remediated by using 1.0% HCl with the same soil:solution mixing ratio for 3 hr. This work demonstrated that the combined use of physical separation and soil washing could be a viable option to remediate soils highly contaminated with heavy metals.

In this study, a method for estimating the in-situ stress state of NC clays using piezocone penetration test (PCPT) results is proposed. The proposed method is based on a correlation between the PCPT results and strength increment ratio. According to proposed method, no additional testing procedure for collecting undisturbed soil sample is required, which can reduce overall testing cost. To verify this method various analytical solutions were adopted and used. Measured result and predicted result are compared with each other. The verification sites consist of a variety of soil conditions. From the comparison, it is seen that predicted value of effective strcss using the proposed method match well those from measured results.
