The Sinseongri site contains at least eleven theropod trackways, three sauropod trackways, and one or more ornithopod walkways of dinosaur footprints. The host rock at the site is primarily siltstone and mudstone, but thermal alterations have metamorphosed it into hornfels. Except for micro cracks and exfoliations, joint systems in various directions appeared on the surface of the fossils site and showed a low share of all damage factors. The host rocks in the fossils site demonstrated relatively high physical properties as a result of ultrasonic velocity and were classified as stable. More than half of the fossils required reinforcement to control the progression of cracks if the type of conservation treatment was subdivided according to the damage type of dinosaur footprint fossils. The white paint used to visualize the footprints seems to deteriorate, allowing rock debris to spill out and causing damage to the fossil site, and alternative visualization schemes should be considered.

The demand for the re-painting of steel bridges is increasing, but surface treatment is still centered on human resources for on-site re-painting processes. Worker safety accidents continue to occur because the work is performed in a narrow space. Recently, PS balls with excellent surface treatment have been used for blasting, but the working environment is poor due to the large amount of dust generated. In this study, an effective surface treatment method using impeller blasting equipment was developed. The correlation between steel ball size, impeller rotation speed, and exposure time was studied to optimize the efficiency of the surface treatment.

Ultra high carbon steel (Fe-1.4%C) was prepared by means of a high frequency induction furnace. The preferred nucleation site of martensite was observed. The changes of hardness and impact thoughness due to tempering temperatures, and the spheroidization of cementite by controlled -rolling were also studied for the steel. The preferred nucleation site of martensite in the ultra high carbon steel is prior austenite grain boundary. The hardness of the steel is slightly increased up to about $300^{\circ}C$, and then decreased with further tempering temperature. However, the impact energy keeps a almost constant value, independent of the tempering temperature. The spheroidization of cementite is accelerated as the reduction in thickness per rolling pass is increased and the number of the rolling passes becomes greater.

When performing an endotracheal intubation or tracheotomy to an unconscious patient in emergent situations, one should consider the possibility of later complication of laryngo-tracheal stenosis which can result in difficulties in decannulation. Laryngo-tracheal stenosis is a bothersome problem developing as a complication of treatment by tracheotomy with a cuffed tube and long-term endotracheal intubation with assisted ventilation. One hundred twenty-three cases of laryngo-tracheal stenosis patients during the four yew period from May 1992 to April 1996 were restrospectively reviewed according to several parameters such as the duration of intubation, site of stenosis, treatment modality and, site of tracheostoma. The present report is an analysis of these materials to search for the possible etiologic factors and its proper preventive methods. It was desirable that the endotracheal intubation should be limited within 20 days at most. Tracheotomy performed by non-otolaryngologists has a tendency to be on a higher level of trachea. Technical precautions should be taken into consideration when doing a tracheotomy. The success rate of decannulation of tracheal T-tube was 78.8% and it required average 11 months.

In this study, we focused on typically problematic sulfide compounds Gas samples were captured at Unjung-ding landfill site in Metropolitan Kwangju with flux chamber and floating chamber, and analyzed for the amount of hydrogen sulfide($H_2S$), dimethyl sulfide $((CH_3)_2S)$ and dimethyl disulfide$((CH_3)_2S_2)$. From the gas pipe, landfill surface and leachate treatment plant, estimated total amount of $H_2S$ emission are 12.6ton/yr, 0.01ton/yr and 1.04ton/yr; estimated total amount of $((CH_3)_2S)$ 30.7ton/yr, 0.08ton/yr and 1.72ton/yr; and estimated total amount of ($((CH_3)_2S_2)$ 2.2tom/yr, 0.02ton/yr and 1.03ton/yr, respectively. Further in-depth study on co-relation between age, packing characteristics, temperature and humidity of landfill site and gas emission characteristics is needed.

This study was based on a series of 213 patients with facial bone fractures treated at college of Medicine, Dong-A university from Mar. 1990 to Jun. 1993. The results obtained were as follows : 1. The ratio of male to female was 8.3 : 1 and 3rd decade(34.3%) was the highest age group in incidence. 2. Monthly incidence was the highest in Jan. & Jun.(10.3%) 3. Onset time and daily incidence was the highest in pm. 9:00-12:00(21.4%), Sunday(18.8%). 4. Traffic acidents(38.5%) were the most frequent etiologic factor. 5. The most common site of fracture was zygoma & zygomatic arch(42.3%) and mandible (37.8%), maxilla (10.9%) and nasal bone(9.0%) were next in order of frequency. 6. In mandible fractures, the most frequent site was symphyseal area(43.0%) and IMF & open reduction was major method of treatment. 7. In zygoma & zygomatic arch fractures, zygoma(62.0%) was the most common fracture site and open reduction was the most frequent treatment method. 8. In maxilla fractures, the major fracture type was Le Fort I type (72.4%) and treatment was done by IMF & open reduction primarily. 9. postoperative complications were mal-union, fibrous-union, infection, osteomyelitis etc.

A field test on mud flat remediation was carried out in order to observe the effects of the treatments such as microbial dose and an oxygen releasing compound like $CaO_2$. The size of each treatment site was $100m^2$ and the dosage was 3.6 kg per site. The 6 week monitoring showed that pH on two sites was below 7 and ORP increased from .178~-188 mV to .121~-142 mV. In Ignition loss and COD there were no significant changes. Meanwhile nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations changed: ammonia concentration decreased both on control and treatment sites. Nitrate nitrogen decreased more on combined treatment site than on single microbial treatment (11.3% vs. 7.3%) probably because the extra oxygen supplied by $CaO_2$ formed more oxic environment so that the facilitated nitrification might produce more nitrate but the nitrate would be much rapidly released into the water layer out of the sediment. That also explains the total nitrogen reduction(6.1%). Similarly, T-P and $PO_4-P$ reduced by 29% and 31.8%, respectively on combined treatment sites, resulting from the phosphorus release effect though the initial concentrations of the two factors were considerably high.

A high ammonia nitrogen ($NH_3-N$) concentration has been recursively observed every winter season in Geum River, which hindered chemical treatment processes at a water treatment plant. A flushing discharge from Daecheong Dam was often considered to dilute $NH_3-N$, but information on the quantitative effect of flushing on the downstream water quality was limited. In this study, the impact of a short-term reservoir flushing on the downstream water quality was investigated through field experiments and unsteady water quality modeling. On November 22, 2003, the reservoir discharge was increased from $30m^3/sec$ to $200m^3/sec$ within 6 hours for the purpose of the experiment. The results showed that flushing flow tends to reduce downstream $NH_3-N$ concentrations considerably, but the effectiveness was limited by flushing amount and time. An unsteady river water quality model was applied to simulate the changes of nitrogen concentrations in response to reservoir flushing. The model showed very good performance in predicting the travel time of flushing flow and the effect of flushing discharge on the reduction of downstream $NH_3-N$ concentrations at Maepo and Geumnam site, but a significant discrepancy was observed at Gongju site.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to report the improvement of multiple rib fracture after korean medical treatment; adhesive treatment and herb-medicine treatment. Methods: A patient with multiple rib fracture was treated with Daewhangchija-paste(大黃梔子膏) adhesive and herb-medicine treatment. Verbal numeric rating scale, medical examination by interview and rib series x-ray were used to assess progress of treatment. And we took pictures of left flank after attaching Daewhangchija-paste to observe the changes of the skin colors. Results: Rib series x-ray taken after 2 months of treatment revealed hard callus which added stability against external force on rib cage. After taking off Daewhangchija-paste, left plank skin turned into blue, green and yellow. And the pain level(VNRS) of left plank decreased from 10 to 0.5 for 4 months. Conclusions: Pain reduction on trauma site and improvement of general health condition were observed during combination treatment of Daewhangchija-paste adhesive and herb-medicine.
