Current seismic design provisions such as ASCE 7-10 provide criteria for selecting ground motions for conducting response history analysis. This study is the sequel of a companion paper (I - Ground Motion Selection) for assessment of the ASCE 7-10 criteria. To assess of the ASCE 7-10 criteria, nonlinear response history analyses of twelve single degree of freedom (SDF) systems and one multi-degree of freedom (MDF) system are conducted in this study. The results show that the target seismic demands for SDF can be predicted using the mean seismic demands over seven and ten ground motions selected according to the proposed method within an error of 30% and 20%, respectively

The main functions of a Buddhist temples are as a place for Buddhist services and a place for sermons and each ancient Buddhist temple was equipped with a main and separate building. After Zen Buddhism was first introduced, there was a tendency to change the terms to Buddhist sanctuary and altar, as set forth in the Zen Buddhism code of conduct called 'Cheonggyu(淸規)'. As such, it was thought that the division between Buddhist service space and preaching space were relatively firm until the Goryeo Dynasty. However in the period from the end of the Goryeo to the beginning of the Joseon Dynasty there was an increasing tendency of integration of the two buildings. It can be seen that, in cases where both buildings remained, statues of Buddha were enshrined in these buildings without any distinction. Eventually it is led to the tradition of duo-Buddhist sanctums.

This study explored the life histories of intermarried Korean men for more than one year before and after their family dissolution. Researcher had in-depth interviews with participants who were selected by purposive sampling from the intermarried Korean men with dissoluted family conditions. Researcher employed the holistic-content approach to analyze the interviewed materials. Mandelbaum(1973)'s conceptual framework-dimensions, turnings, and adaptions-has been taken to present the analyzed contents. The dimensions of men consisted of 'request of continuous money', 'limitation of comprehensible communucation', 'premise terminated marriage: leaving home', 'inassurance of marriage maintenance'. Turnings involved 'abandoned person', 'parents' excessive protection', 'community among themselves', and 'greedy mediator'. Adaptions were observed by 'various feeling card', 'worrying about men's child', 'expecting the future', and 'stopping on foreigner as a partner'. Discussion and suggestion were presented on the basis of these findings: examination of marriage genuineness, Korean men's preparation of marriage, intervention and service for their mental health, supports for their children and strengthen of multicultural family center's function for dissolved family.

Heavy metal concentrations and benthic foraminiferal distributions were investigated in three short sediment cores in order to understand the pollution history in Masan Bay. Sedimentation rates were 0.33 cm/yr, 0.20 cm/yr and 0.33 cm/yr in the inner bay, the out fall of Dugdong sewage disposal plant, and bay mouth, respectively. The rapid increases of copper, zinc and lead concentrations at the core depth of 10 cm the upper part indicated that Masan Bay has been polluted with industrial wastes since the 1940s. Benthic foraminifera in core sediments show that the variations in their distribution were followed by industrial pollution in the bay. The number of individuals and species diversity decreased, whereas agglutinated tests increased upward in the cores with increased heavy metal pollution. These shifts effectd the abundance of few tolerant forms and consequently decreased the species diversity. The opportunistic species Eggerella advena and Trochammina pacifica increased in polluted sediments. These species can be used as an indicator for assessments of environmental quality in Masan Bay.

Recently, construction of mass concrete structures except Dam are increased very often. Generation heat due to the hydrating reaction of mass concrete is generally larger than the heat released to the air, foundations and the exist structures. Therefore, internal temperature of mass concrete is remarkably risen and temperature gap between center and surface is extended by various effect. It this gap get large, the crack may be occurred. This crack must be controlled as little as possible to ensure the soundness and durability of structure. Firstly, Temperature rising history of Mass concrete is expected correctly to constrain the crack of mass concrete. So, objectives of this research is to quantify the effects of hydration temperature for the purpose of evaluating accurately the temperature history of mass concrete.

This study was done to research "Ke Sou Lun" of ${\ll}$Yi Guan${\gg}$ of Zhao Xian Ke. The results obtained as follows. 1) He suggested the treatment of chronic cough to strengthen 'Pitu' and 'Shenshui'. 2) He treated chronic cough patient without 'Qingjin' and 'Qinghuo' therapy that use cold herb. 3) We can strengthen 'Yang', after strengthen 'Zhenyin' in case of the chronic cough that contained 'Huo'.

This study aims to evaluate the cultural street and to find ways to revitalize a culture street. To achieve this, the study relied on empirical study method and the descriptive method; additionally, present condition survey was performed with a user interview. As a result, the item of 'night visit' shows the highest mean and the item of 'convenience of walking' follows. It means that this street has such a good condition in the convenience and accessibility of physical environment that it gives pedestrians pleasure like night activity and satisfying their curiosity. 5 lowest items of inquiry, however, are all about regional history and origin. It means that this cultural street did not reflect the history and embody the original form of the street. Also, this study proposes 4 type of street; a street with contents, a street with sequence, a street for pedestrians, and a street with identity.

As wooden construction developed, it was observed that the rafters with corners changed to angled rafters. The change from rafters to angle rafters means that the angle rafters became the most important member in supporting the roof weight as the construction scale increased and structurally developed. The specific installation methods of angle rafters were all unique in Korea, China, and Japan. In East Asia, the angle of the angle rafter gradually decreased along with the development of construction. However, in Joseon Dynasty Korea, the angle of the angle rafter was larger than that of the Gorye era because the method of fixing the corner of the roof more firmly by building the fan-shaped rafter was utilized. The changes to the angle rafter installation method is a unique characteristic of Korea, in that it was developed in a totally different way from the methods used in China and Japan.

Ujaegyeong(尤在涇) is a doctor of the Cheong Dynasty[淸代], whose works include "Geumgweyoryaksimjeon", "Shanghangwanjujip(傷寒貫珠集)", and "Uihakdokseogi(醫學讀書記)". Much research has been done on "Geumgweyoryaksimjeon" and "Shanghangwanjujip", but "Uihakdokseogi" has seen relatively little interest. This study aims to translate the first volume of "Uihakdokseogi" and compare the work with other literature in order to gain a better understanding of Ujaegyeong(尤在涇)'s medical theories and to review the viability of the said theories in practice. "Uihakdokseogi" is a casual work which mentions U's thoughts on various problems found through extensive studying or in practice. The book does not focus on a single topic. Thus, the spectrum of the work is broad and is filled with problems which would interest most medical professionals.

Simon Stevin, a mathematician active in the Netherlands in early seventeenth century, parlayed his mathematical talents into improving navigation skills. In 1605, he introduced a technique of calculating the distance of loxodrome employed in long-distance voyages in his book, Navigation. He explained how to calculate distance by 8 different angles, and even depicted how to make a copper loxodrome model for navigators. Particularly, Stevin clarified in the 7th copper loxodrome model on the unique features of equiangular spiral curve that keeps spinning and gradually accesses from the vicinity to the center. These findings predate those of Descartes on equiangular spiral curve by more than 30 years. Navigation, a branch of actual mathematics devised for the survival of sailors on the bosom of the ocean, was also the first step to the discovery of new mathematical object.
