The significant of continuous welded rail (CWR) management is growing because KORAIL has the plan to convert the whole of conventional railway lines into CWRs through continuous activities since constructed the CWR track with 1.8km in Gyeongbu line in 1966. The CWR recently is needed a efficient management method because it is difficult to manage the CWR by the poor of technic and equipment, limited maintain labor force and shorted the maintain work time of CWR caused by industrialization, greenhouse effect and global warming In this point, The 70ton Tenser's which is using in the rail site has been analysised with no extra tenser's capacity in case of the under low temperature and exceed the length of 1km as a result of reviewing the CWR-related rules and standards, a series of records of safety accidents, operation obstacles, and the situation of broken rails published by KORAIL, existing rail temperature measurements, and CWR researches. Therefore avoid the excessive plan of the first set-up section, choice the proper time in the normal temperature that is possible to weld the rail, turning the difference of rail temperature and Installation temperature down is desirable.

Land application of animal manure, such as pig slurry(PS), has been considered as valuable organic source to supply necessary nutrients for crop growth. On the other hand, little information is available on the effect of consecutive application of PS on agricultural soils. This study was conducted to evaluate the influence on change in soil chemical properties and yield of Chinese cabbage in soils amended with slurry composting and bio-filtration pig slurry (SCB) for four consecutive crop cultivations (2007-2008). Among total application rates required, a basal fertilizer (35%) was applied with SCB or chemical fertilizer (CF). The CF was applied as a side dressing was applied in all treatments. There was no significant effect of SCB and CF on Chinese cabbage yield during four cropping seasons. In addition, soluble sugar, vitamin C contents and yields of Chinese cabbage between SCB and CF did not show statistically significant difference. During the experiment, soil chemical properties between SCB and CF treatment showed similar pattern, however, the contents of exchangeable sodium (Na) in soil has been increased (P<0.05) since the second cropping season because of higher Na contents in SCB. Therefore, the use of SCB as a substitute of CF is available for growth and yield of chinese cabbage while its long-term application might leads to an accumulation of Na in soil.

Purpose : Congenital urinary tract anomaly is the most common anomaly in the childhood and progress to chronic renal failure and growth retardation. Therefore, early diagnosis arid treatment of urinary tract anomaly are important. Method : We reviewed medical records of 124 patients who had urinary tract anomalies on radiologic studies from Jan. 1986 to Dec. 1996. We analyzed demography and clinical characteristics of urinary tract anomalies. Results : 1) The age distributions were as follows ; 61 cases of 124 patients (49%) were under 1 year, 11 cases (8.8%) from 1 to 3 years, 20 cases (16%) from 4 to 6 years, 10 cases (8%) from 7 to 9 years, 9 cases (7.2%) from 10 to 12 years, 10 cases (8%) from 13 to 15 years, and 3 cases (2.4%) from 16 to 18 years. 2) Chief complaints in patients with urinary tract anomalies were fever, flank pain, prenatally diagnosed hydronephrosis, abdominal mass, dysuria and hematuria. 3) Of 124 patients, 68 cases(54.8%) were combined with urinary tract infection, and main causative organism was E.coli, and the most frequently associated anomaly was vesicoureteral reflux. 4) Most of the urinary tract anomalies were VUR, UPJ obstruction, congenital hydronephrosis and double ureter in order of sequence. 5) Whereas the frequency of simple urinary tract anomaly was 87.9%, that of complex anomaly was 12%. 6) Operative corrections were needed in 47 cases and 7 cases were progressed to renal insufficiency. Conclusion : We emphasize that early detection of urinary tract anomaly, appropriate treatment and regular follow-up are needed.

A result of national malaria surveillance in Korean civilians was described. Since a case of indigenous vivax malaria was detected in 1993, a total of 2,198 cases was confirmed by blood smear up to 1997. Of them, 1,548 cases were soldiers serving in the demilitarized zone (DMZ), while 650 cases were civilians. Number of civilian cases was 3 in 1994, 19 in 1995, 71 in 1996, and 557 in 1997. Of them, 239 were ex-soldiers who discharged after military service in the prevalent areas such as Paju, Yonchon, Kimpo, Kangwha, Tongduchon in Kyonggi-do and Chorwon in Kangwon-do while 308 patients were civilian residents in the prevalent areas. Seventy-two patients, living nationwide, had a history of visiting the prevalent areas during transmission season. Only 32 civilian patients denied any relation with the prevalent areas. As a whole, a half of the civilian cases was diagnosed when living in non-prevalent areas. Male patients in their twenties was the highest in number. Annual parasite index is steadily elevated in residents living in the prevalent areas. Monthly incidence showed an unimodal distribution, forming a peak in August. Ex-soldiers exhibited a delayed incubation ranging from 153 to 452 days ($279{\pm}41$ days). The time required for diagnosis was shortened from 23.6 days in 1995 to 13.7 days in 1997. Although the current epidemic of vivax malaria started as a border malaria, it seems highly probable that vivax malaria is established in the local areas and responsible for at least a part of transmission.

전자제품의 소형화, 경량화, 고집적화가 심화됨에 따라 전자제품을 구성하는 회로의 미세화 또한 요구되고 있다. 이러한 요구는 경성회로기판 (rigid printed circuit board, RPCB) 뿐만 아니라 연성회로기판 (flexible printed circuit board, FPCB) 에도 적용되고 있으며 이에 대한 많은 연구 또한 이루어지고 있다. 연성회로기판은 일반적으로 절연층을 이루는 폴리이미드 (polyimide, PI)와 전도층을 이루는 구리로 이루어져 있다. 폴리이미드는 뛰어난 열적 화학적 안정성, 우수한 기계적 특성, 연속공정이 가능한 장점을 가지고 있으나, 고온다습한 환경하에서 높은 흡습성으로 인해 전도층을 이루는 구리와의 접합특성이 저하되는 단점 또한 가지고 있다. 또한 전도층을 이루는 구리는 고온다습한 환경하에서 산화 발생이 용이하기 때문에 접합특성의 감소를 야기할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 고온다습한 조건하에서 sputtering and plating 공정을 통해 순수 Cr seed layer를 가지는 연성회로기판의 seed layer의 두께와 시효시간의 변화로 인해 발생하는 접합특성의 변화를 관찰하고 분석하였다. 본 연구에서는 두께 $25{\mu}m$의 일본 Kadena사(社)에서 제작된 폴리이미드 상에 sputtering 공정을 통해 순수 Cr으로 이루어진 각각 두께 100, 200, $300{\AA}$의 seed layer를 형성한 후 전해도금법을 이용, 두께 $8{\mu}m$의 구리 전도층을 형성한 시료를 사용하였다. 제작된 시료는 고온다습한 환경하에서의 접합 특성의 변화를 관찰하기 위하여 $85^{\circ}C$/85%RH 항온항습 조건하에서 각각 24, 72, 120, 168시간 동안 시효처리 한 후, Interconnections Packaging Circuitry (IPC) 규격에 의거하여 접합강도를 측정하였다. 시료의 전도층은 폭 3.2mm 길이 230mm의 패턴을 가지도록, 절연층은 폭 10mm, 길이 230mm으로 구성되었으며 이를 50.8mm/min의 박리 속도로 각 시편당 8회의 $90^{\circ}$ peel test를 실시하였다. 파면의 형상과 화학적 조성을 분석하기 위해 SEM (Scanning electron microscope)과 EDS (Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy)를 사용하였으며, 파면의 조도 측정을 위해 AFM (Atomic force microscope)을 사용하였다. 또한 계면의 화학적 결합상태를 분석하기 위해 XPS (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy)를 통해 파면을 관찰 분석하였다.

Absorption pattern and sensitivity of radishes to boron were compared with different boron treatment: soil application, foliar spray and no boron application. Six radish cultivars were planted on April 7 and harvested on June 23. Borax 1.5 Kg per 10 a was applied to soil before seeding and the 150 litters of 0.5 ppm solution with bolic acid was sprayed on leaves 3 times during the growing period. Boron content in plant was markedly increased by the soil application but no significant difference in boron contents in plants was observed between foliar spray and no application, presumably because of the insufficient dose of foliar spray. The darkening rot in root, a boron deficiency, was negligible in radishes grown in soil application plots whereas a relatively higher percentage of boron deficient plant was found from foliar spray or no application plots. The appearance of root darkening rot occurred at the rapid root enlargement stage, apparently from 55 days to 65 days after seeding. The boron contents in plants of soil application plots slightly increased at this stage while those of no boron application and foliar spray decreased. This obviously verified that boron deficiency should cause root rots showing highly significant relationship.

The oblong rockfish, Sebastes oblongus has recently drawn attention from aquaculturists because of its marketable value and tolerance against winter water temperature in the southern coastal waters of the Korean peninsula. In the study of temperature effect on growth, water temperature $16^{\circ}C$ showed best growth. The upper temperature of the fish showed feeding activity was $27^{\circ}C$ over which the fish showed no longer feeding activity. Stocking density was also a critical factor affecting the growth and survival of the juvenile fish. The best growth was in the density of 200 juveniles/L, while the highest survival was in the density of 100 juveniles/L. A feeding experiment was conducted to determine the effects of feeding frequency on growth and survival. A feeding scheme of twice a day was good enough in the sense of growth, survival, and economy. These results indicate that parameters such as water temperature, density, tank size and feeding frequency are consideration for best seed production of the fish.

In this paper, we proposed and designed a novel floating point converter which supports single and double precisions of IEEE754 standard. The proposed convertor supports conversions between floating point number single/double precision and signed fixed point number(32bits/64bits) as well as conversions between signed integer(32bits/64bits) and floating point number single/double precision and conversions between floating point number single and double precisions. We defined a new internal format to convert various input types into one type so that overflow checking could be conducted easily according to range of output types. The internal format is similar to the extended format of floating point double precision defined in IEEE754 2008 standard. This standard specifies that minimum exponent bit-width of the extended format of floating point double precision is 15bits, but 11bits are enough to implement the proposed converting unit. Also, we optimized rounding stage of the convertor unit so that we could make it possible to operate rounding and represent correct negative numbers using an incrementer instead an adder. We designed single cycle data path and 5 cycles data path. After describing the HDL model for two data paths of the convertor, we synthesized them with TSMC 180nm technology library using Synopsys design compiler. Cell area of synthesis result occupies 12,886 gates(2 input NAND gate), and maximum operating frequency is 411MHz.

In this paper, we propose a novel reconfigurable coprocessor for multimedia mobile terminals. Because most of multimedia operations require fast operations of large amount of data in the limited clock frequency, it is necessary to enhance the performance of the embedded processor that is widely used in current multimedia mobile terminals. Therefore, we proposed and have designed the coprocessor which had the ability of fast operations of multimedia data. The proposed coprocessor was not only reconfigurable, but also flexible and expandable. The proposed coprocessor has been designed by using VHDL and compared with previous reconfigurable coprocessors and a commercial embedded processor in architecture and speed. As a result of the architectural comparison, the proposed coprocessor had better structure in terms of hardware size and flexibility. Also, the simulation results of DCT application showed that the proposed coprocessor was 26 times faster than a commercial ARM processor and 11 times faster than the ARM processor with fast DCT core.
