Numerical method of nonlinear regression was introduced to characterize grain-size distribution more effectively than using the traditional textural parameters. This technique proved critical particularly to multimodal size distributions, as exemplified by samples from Cheju strait continental shelf. Grain-size analysis of samples collected from the Cheju Strait continental shelf reveals that 86% of the grain-size distributions are multimodal. As multimodal grain-size distribution deviates from the statistical (log) normal distribution, the grain-size parameters traditionally used in sediment studies do not describe the distribution efficiently. Therefore, the use of grain-size curves into elementary normal component curves was used. Means and standard deviations of 387 decomposed normal components were decided by a decomposition method (nonlinear least square regression) from 167 size curves of the Cheju Strait sediments. The mean values of decomposed normal components show peaks at 1-3 phi and 8-9 phi size classes. The plot of mean values of the coarse fraction normal components on the map shows a characteristic and complex areal distribution. On the basis of the areal distribution of the mean values of the components and that of isopach of total Plenipotence sediment, the areal distribution of layers composing a transgressive sand of Late Plenipotence age were revealed.

An ocean compartment model simulating transport of nuclides by advection due to ocean circulation and intertaction with suspended sediments is developed, by which concentration breakthrough curves of nuclides can be calculated as a function of time. Dividing ocean into arbitrary number of characteristic compartments and performing a balance of mass of nuclides in each ocean compartment, the governing equation for the concentration in the ocean is obtained and a solution by the numerical integration is obtained. The integration method is specially useful for general stiff systems. For transfer coefficients describing advective transport between adjacent compartments by ocean circulation, the ocean turnover time is calculated by a two-dimensional numerical ocean model. To exemplify the compartment model, a reference case calculation for breakthrough curves of three nuclides in low-level radioactive wastes, Tc-99, Cs-137, and Pu-238 released from hypothetical repository under the seabed is carried out with five ocean compartments. Sensitivity analysis studies for some parameters to the concentration breakthrough curves are also made, which indicates that parameters such as ocean turnover time and ocean water volume of compartments have an important effect on the breakthrough curves.

To investigate the unsaturated characteristics of the tailings obtained from the waste dump at Imgi mine, matric suction and volumetric water content were measured in both drying and wetting processes using Automated Soil-Water Characteristics Curve Apparatus. Based on the measured result, Soil Water Characteristic Curves (SWCC) were estimated by van Genuchten model. According to the unsaturated soil classification method, the tailings of the waste dump correspond to clayey sand. As a result of Suction Stress Characteristic Curve (SSCC) by Lu and Likos model, SSCC has a shape of S which is similar to SWCC. The hysteresis phenomenon occurred in SSCCs, which means the suction stress of drying path is larger than that of wetting path in the same effective degree of saturation. The effective stress of unsaturated soil is equal to that of saturated soil when matric suction is less than Air Entry Value (AEV). However, the effective stress of unsaturated soil is larger than that of saturated soil when matic suction is more than AEV. Meanwhile, unsaturated hydraulic conductivity by van Genuchten model decreased with increasing matric suction, and the hydraulic conductivity of drying path is larger than that of wetting path.

It is well known that the critical current of a HTS tape has anisotropic characteristic in magnetic field. We are interested in critical current density distribution of a HTS tape. We assumed the experimentally obtained Ic-B curves do represent the local properties of HTS tapes and calculated the critical current density distribution of HTS tapes using numerical method. Also we predicted the critical current of the tapes.

The charateristic of hydration reaction was studied in CaO-Al2O3-SiO2 system glass. As a result, the rate of heat liberation curves of synthestized glass becomes fixed after having increased by degrees. And it is decreasing after having increased suddenly. It was found that the total heat liberation with hydration for synthesized glass has a close relationship with the formation amount of ettringite.

We report on the static and dynamic characteristics of optically modulated resonant tunneling diode oscillator (RTDO) formed in double-barrier quantum-well structure. Under the illumination of Ti:Sapphire laser, the dc current-voltage (I-V) curves of RTDO shifted towared lower voltages. This characteristic was found to odify the series resistance, negtive differential resistance, capacitance, and the inductance of the RTDO. As a result, the resonant frequency of TRDO centered at 5.302 GHz was found to decrease about 20 MHz under the laser illumination. At a constnat bias voltage, the oscillation frequency decreased linearly as the laser power was increased.

A winding machine to fabricate the double pancake coils was manufactured. A race-track type double pancake coil using high temperature superconductor (HTS) tape was prepared and I-V and I-H characteristic curves were obtained at the atmosphere of liquid nitrogen. The winding method to make the double pancake coil and its properties is discussed.

A new $NH_{3}-O_{2}$ oxidation method was estimated by the electrical properties of the fabricated n-MOS transistor. For the C-V characteristic curves the Qox are almost equal to Qss and no hysteresis phenomena are observed. The Id-Vds characteristics show that $NH_{3}-O_{2}$ oxidation method is superior to Dry oxidation.

Because of the flat slope of the magnetic characteristic curves at high saturation, the transformer inrush current peakes may assume an extreme magnitude. Even though such is rarely any danger to the transformer itself, the currents can cause serious problems in associated apparatus. This paper has analyzed various limiting factors of excess inrush currents, and then has suggested how to determine the frequency of encountering the inrush current peaks higher than an arbitrarily chosen value by deriving the probability equations of inrush current occurrence.
