Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate onset timing of vastus medialis oblique(VMO) relative to vastus lateralis(VL) the VMO/VL electromyographic(EMG) ratio according to heel height Methods: A repeated measures design was used. Fifteen healthy female college students with no known knee musculoskeletal dysfunction were recruited this study. They carried out a standardised stair acent activity under 4 conditions; barefoot, and with heel height of 1, 3, 7 cm. Muscle activity was measured by surface EMG (Myosystem 1400A, Noraxon Inc., U.S.A). Data were analysed using $1{\times}4$ repeated measures ANOVA. Results: Onset timing differed with heel height(p<.05). However, the VMO/VL EMG ratio was not significantly difference between conditions. Conclusion: We found that 7 cm heel height delayed in VMO onset compared with 3 cm heel height during stair ascent, but no change in the relative EMG intensity of VMO and VL as measured by th VMO/VL ratio. The findings indicate that high-heeled shoes may have disadvantages in knee stability because of delayed onset of VMO. Due to a lack of knee joint stability, wearing of high heeled shoes should be avoided.

Most of the drinking water dams managed by the local governments in Korea are earthfill dams, and these dams have almost no geotechnical property information necessary for seismic performance evaluation. Nevertheless, in the rough planning stage for improving seismic safety for these dams, it is necessary to classify their relative seismic hazard against earthquakes and conduct an additional ground investigation. The zero seismic failure probability curve is a curve suggested in this study in which the probability of failure due to an earthquake becomes '0' regardless of the geotechnical properties of the earthfill dam. By examining the method and procedure for calculating failure probability due to an earthquake suggested in previous researches, the zero seismic failure probability curves for an earthquake in 1,000-year and 2,400-year return periods in Korea were presented in the form of a hyperbola on the plane of the dam height versus freeboard ratio (ratio of freeboard to dam height), respectively. The distribution characteristics of the dam height and the freeboard ratio of 81 Korean earthfill dams were presented. The two proposed zero seismic failure probability curves are shown on the plane of the dam height versus freeboard ratio, and the relative seismic hazard of 81 dams can be classified into three groups using these curves as boundaries. This study presented the method of classifying the relative seismic hazard and the classification result.

This paper presents a detailed study focused on investigating the effects of silt content on the static and dynamic properties of sand-silt mixtures. Specimens with a low-plastic silt content of 0, 15, 30 and 50% by weight were tested in static triaxial, cyclic triaxial, and resonant columns in addition to consolidation tests to determine such parameters as compression index, internal friction angle, cohesion, cyclic stress ratio, maximum shear modulus, normalized shear modulus and damping ratio. The test procedures were performed on specimens of three cases: constant void ratio index, e = 0.582; same peak deviator stress of 290 kPa; and constant relative density, $D_r$ = 30%. The test results obtained for both the constant-void-ratio-index and constant-relative-density specimens showed that as silt content increased, the internal friction angle, cyclic stress ratio and maximum shear modulus decreased, but cohesion increased. In testing of the same deviator stress specimens, both cohesion and internal friction angle were insignificantly altered with the increase in silt content. In addition, as silt content increased, the maximum shear modulus increased. The cyclic stress ratio first decreased as silt content increased to reach the threshold silt content and increased thereafter with further increases in silt content. Furthermore, the damping ratio was investigated based on different silt contents in three types of specimens.

This paper considers the likelihood ratio test statistic based on nonlinear regression quantiles estimators in order to test of hypothesis about the regression parameter $\theta_o$ and derives asymptotic distribution of proposed test statistic under the null hypothesis and a sequence of local alternative hypothesis. The paper also investigates asymptotic relative efficiency of the proposed test to the test based on the least squares estimators or the least absolute deviation estimators and gives some examples to illustrate the application of the main result.

This study investigates the effects of loading frequency (f) and specimen size on the liquefaction resistance of clean sand. A series of cyclic direct simple shear tests were conducted on Jumunjin sand with varying consolidated relative densities (40% and 80%), f values (0.05, 0.10, and 0.20 Hz), and diameter to height (D/H) ratios (3.63, 3.18, 2.82, and 2.54). The results demonstrated the significant influence of f and D/H ratio on the number of cycles to liquefaction (N_cyc-liq) and the cyclic resistance ratio (CRR₁₅). It was observed that increasing f linearly increased N_cyc-liq. Increasing the specimen height also led to higher N_cyc-liq values irrespective of the f or relative density. Moreover, a positive correlation between CRR₁₅ and f indicated that higher f yielded higher CRR₁₅. This relationship was more pronounced in dense sand than in loose sand. Specimen height also significantly affected CRR₁₅, with increasing the specimen height resulting in higher CRR₁₅ values. Furthermore, the effect of f on CRR₁₅ was less significant compared to the influence of specimen height. The effect of f on the normalized cyclic resistance ratio (NCRR) was relatively negligible for loose sand but more substantial for dense sand depending on the D/H ratio. Data analysis revealed that the NCRR generally decreases as the D/H ratio increases. An interpolation formula was provided to calculate the NCRR based on the D/H ratio regardless of the f and relative density.

본 연구에서는 자갈혼합률을 다르게 준비한 자갈-모래 혼합시료가 등방압밀 및 $K_0$-이방압밀 상태에서 나타나는 액상화거동에 대해서 연구하였다. 이를 위하여 자갈혼합률이 다른 자갈-모래 혼합토 공시체를 100kPa의 연직응력으로서 상대밀도가 40% 되도록 등방압밀 및 $K_0$-이방압밀 시킨 후 반복삼축시험을 수행하였다. 또한 자갈혼합률이 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%인 공시체에 100 kPa의 연직응력으로서 간극비가 0.7이 되도록 등방압밀 후 반복시험도 실시하였다. 시험결과 동일한 상대밀도(Dr=40%)를 가지는 자갈-모래 혼합토 공시체의 간극비는 자갈혼합률이 증가할수록 감소하다가 약 70%를 저점으로해서 다시 증가한다. 그러나 이 경계혼합률 이하에서는 자갈입자 사이를 채우고 있는 모래의 간극비는 자갈혼합률이 증가할수록 증가한다. 상대밀도가 일정한 (Dr=40%)등방압밀 공시체에 있어서 자갈혼합률이 비교적 낮은 경우(GC=0%, 20%, 40%)에는 반복하중에 의해서 일어나는 간극수압과 축변형률 거동이 비교적 높은 간극비로 인해서 느슨한 모래의 거동을 나타내나, 자갈혼합률이 높은 경우(GC=70%)에는 간극수압과 축변형률 거동이 조밀한 모래의 거동과 비슷한 경향을 보인다. 또한 간극비가 일정한(e=0.7) 등방압밀 공시체에 있어서 자갈혼합률이 높을수록 축변형률과 간극수압 거동은 느슨한 모래의 거동을 보이며 자갈혼합률이 낮을수록 축변형률 거동은 조밀한 모래의 거동을 나타낸다. 등방압밀 공시체의 액상화강도는 경계혼합률(GC=70%)이하의 범위에서는 상대밀도가 일정한 경우에는 자갈혼합률이 증가할수록 증가하며 간극비가 일정한 경우는 자갈혼합률이 증가할수록 감소한다. 따라서 자갈-모래 혼합토의 액상화강도는 예상과는 달리 자갈 입자 사이를 채우고 있는 모래의 상대밀도 보다는 혼합토의 전체적인 상대밀도 및 간극비에 의해서 결정된다는 사실이 확인되었다. $K_0$-이방압밀 공시체의 간극수압과 축변형률 거동은 반복응력이 어느 정도의 응력반전을 포함하고 있는데도 불구하고 응력반전이 없는 경우의 사질토의 거동을 나타낸다. 즉 응력반전량이 반복응력 진폭의 약 10%인데도 불구하고 반복변형률은 비슷하나 영구변형률이 크게 증가하며 또한 간극수압비는 1.0에 미달하여 초기액상화가 일어나지 않는다. 그리고 액상화강도는 자갈촌합률이 증가할수록 0%에서 40%까지의 범위에서는 증가하나 그 이상에서는 감소하는 경향을 보인다. 결론적으로 자갈-모래 혼합토의 반복거동은 자갈혼합량, 간극비, 상대밀도 그리고 압밀상태와 같은 요인에 의해 결정된다.

Through the developing measuring system of gas diffusivity, the experiments on carbon dioxide diffusivity in concrete carry out. From this, some important results was achieved. First, the times of reaching the steady state condition don't depend on the water/cement ratio with linearity. But, for the 0.42 w/c ratio the duration of the non-steady state condition is long. Second, in constant relative humidity, the diffusion coefficient shows linearity for the w/c ratio. Third, for the same w/c ratio, the influence of relative humidity on the diffusivity is very large. This shows the importance of the environmental condition for the carbonation. This study on $CO_2$ diffusivity in concrete is the first attempt within a country and will be important data.

In this paper, we attempted to produce the cloud forecast that use the numerical weather prediction(NWP) MM5 for objective cloud forecast. We presented two methods for cloud forecast. One of them used total cloud mixing ratio registered to sum(synthesis) of cloud-water and cloud-ice grain mixing ratio those are variables related to cloud among NWP result data and the other method that used relative humidity. An experiment was carried out period from 23th to 24th July 2004. According to the sequence of comparing the derived cloud forecast data with the observed value, it was indicated that both of those have a practical use possibility as cloud forecast method. Specially in this Case study, cloud forecast method that use total cloud mixing ratio indicated good forecast availability to forecast of the low level clouds as well as middle and high level clouds.

목적: 가입렌즈 도수 변화에 따른 반응 AC/A비와 프리즘 굴절력 변화에 따른 CA/C비를 측정하고, 이 두 변수와 PD 및 상대조절력과의 상관관계, 반응 AC/A비의 역수와 CA/C비 사이의 평균차이를 비교하여 임상에서 굴절력 및 프리즘 처방의 자료로 활용하고자 한다. 방법: 20대 대학생(평균 $22.62{\pm}2.84$세) 62명(남 50명, 여12명)을 대상으로 주시거리 40 cm에서 하웰시표(Howell card)와 개방형굴절력계(Nvision-K 5001, Shin nippon)를 이용하여 가입렌즈 도수 변화에 따른 반응 AC/A비를 측정하였고, CA/C비는 Wesson fixation card(WFC Bernell, USA) 이면의 DOG시표와 개방형굴절력계를 사용하여 프리즘 굴절력 변화에 따른 CA/C비를 측정하였다. 결과: 가입렌즈 도수 변화에 따른 조절반응량이 프리즘 굴절력 변화에 따른 조절반응량보다 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 크게 나타났다. 동공간 거리와 반응 AC/A비의 설명변량 $R^2=0.025$으로 나타났으며, PD와 CA/C비는 설명변량 $R^2=0.009$으로 나타났다. 상대조절력과 반응 AC/A비의 설명변량 $R^2=0.064$으로 나타났으며 상대조절력과 CA/C비의 설명변량 $R^2=0.321$로 상대조절력과의 예측가능한 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 반응 AC/A비와 CA/C비의 설명변량 $R^2=0.126$으로 낮은 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다(p=0.000). 반응 AC/A비의 역수와 CA/C비 사이의 평균차이는 $0.12{\pm}0.06D/{\Delta}$로 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다(p=0.000). 결론: 상대조절력과 CA/C비의 상관관계는 상대조절력이 높은 사람일수록 폭주자극에 대한 폭주성 조절반응량이 큰 것으로 나타났다. 반응 AC/A비의 역수와 CA/C비는 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보이므로 독립적인 변수로 임상에서 낮은 AC/A비를 가진 환자라도 높은 CA/C비를 가질 수 있다. 이에 양안시 이상에서 프리즘을 처방 할 경우 AC/A비가 정상범위라 하더라도 CA/C비는 다를 수 있어 반드시 조절반응량을 고려한 처방이 되어야 한다.
