The study aimed to identify leaf sheath through the investigation a characteristic of leaf by planting depth and leaf sheath function through the investigation of effect of leaf sheath removals on growth and flowering in forcing of Lilium cultivars. The number of leaf sheath of 'Jolanda', 'Dream Land', 'Casablanca' were 6, 5, 11 in 0cm planting depth and 6, 5, 14 in 6cm planting depth. The number of leaf sheath in 'Jolanda' and 'Dream Land' were little different in according to planting depth. The other hand, the number of leaf sheath in 'Casablanca' were increased 3 when it were planted in 6cm planting depth. As leaf sheath were removed, plant height and stem root growth were decreased in 'Le Reve' and 'Casablanca'. Whereas the growth of basal root and flower number varied among of Lillium and stem diameter, the days of flowering and flower size were little different.

This study aims to give an architectural meaning to the process of change in villages formed to maintain the religious lives. We can draw the following conclusion by reviewing and analyzing primarily the details in relation to the bibliography and actually evaluating and analysing the current status of relevant villages secondly in order to understand the architectural meaning of Catholic village. The architectural Image contained in physical architectural phenomenon displays the change in religious values while the social and cultural characters are responding to the architectural space of Cheonho Village, and this, as a cultural byproduct, is the architectural phenomenon that encompasses the process by which religion takes root in the farming society of Korea that reveals the change in value inherent in the community. The result from study that we conducted via the architectural space of Cheonho Village is interpreted as an architectural phenomenon that encompasses the religion as part of routine lives in a way that is different from the process of becoming in-cultural, and this can be interpreted to have a meaning and character as incultural architecture phenomenon.

Fracture toughness is an important parameter in designing offshore structures to ensure resistance to fracture at various temperatures. In this study, a series of experiments is carried out to obtain fracture toughness values (CTOD) of API 2W Gr.50B, welded using FCAW(Flux Cored Arc Weld). In particular, a comparison of absorbed impact energy and CTOD values are made with respect to two different welding groove shapes; double-V-groove and double-bevel-groove. Charpy impact tests are performed for specimens sampled near the root gap, and CTOD tests are carried out for three point bending specimens having the notch at weld zone. While Charpy impact test result is determined to be a good qualitative measure of fracture toughness, no quantitative correspondence between impact absorbed energy and CTOD values was found. Based on the experiment, it is observed that double-V-groove welds give lower transition temperature than those of double-bevel-groove.

Mathematics teaching is often more effective when teachers connect the contents of mathematics with history, culture, and social events. In the history of mathematics, the 'paradigm' theory from Thomas Kuhn's scientific revolution is very effective to explain the revolutionary process of development in mathematics, and his theory has been widely quoted in the history of science and economics. However, it has not been appropriate to use his theory in the other fields. This is due to the fact that the scope of Kuhn's paradigm theory is limited to mathematics and science. In this study, this researcher introduced pan-paradigm as a general concept that encompasses all, since through any relation in the field of mathematics and architecture, Thomas Kuhn's theory of paradigm does not explain the phenomena. That is, at the root of various cultures there exist always a 'collective unconsciousness' and 'demands of the times,' and these two factors by synergism form values and controlling principles common to various parts of the culture, and this synergism leads the cultural activities, the process of which is a phenomenon called pan-paradigm.

To study the effect of installation and the shapes of filling pieces used for windows on the infiltration rate, infiltration tests were performed with two types of sliding windows and two shapes for the filling pieces. Infiltration occurred most at the top and bottom parts of the center location where two windows overlap, indicating the necessity of a filling piece to be installed at these locations. Infiltration velocity is proportional to the square root of the pressure difference, complying well with the theoretical correlation. Infiltration is reduced about 50% by the filling piece installation. This study shows that filling pieces are essential and their shapes play significant roles in reducing the infiltration of windows.

The spread mooring system for FPSO is developed to explore deep sea area, in which swell is dominant. It is known that the tension response of mooring lines in this sea area shows bimodal spectrum. Assuming normal distribution of tension profile and Rayleigh distribution of tension amplitude, the power spectral density function (PSD) of the mooring tension under the bimodal stationary random process is applied for the calculation of spectrum fatigue. Three popular methods, which are simple summation method, combined spectrum method and Jioa-Moan method, are used to combine fatigue damages from bimodal spectrum characteristics. Each damage value is compared with damage using Rainflow Cycle Counting (RCC) method which is believed to be close to exact solution. Vanmarcke' parameter and RMS(Root Mean Square) ratio are employed to assess relative damage variations between from RCC method and from three combination methods. Finally the most reliable fatigue damage combining method for spread mooring system is suggested.

Investigating ship motion under real conditions is vital for evaluating the seakeeping performance, particularly in the design process stage. This study examined the influence of the principal particulars of a trawler on its seakeeping performance. The wave conditions in the Bering Sea are investigated using available data. The length-to-beam (L/B) and beam-to-draft (B/T) ratios of the ship are changed by 10% for the numerical simulation. The response amplitude operator (RAO) motion, root mean square (RMS) value and sensitivity analysis are calculated to evaluate the influence of the trawler dimensions on ship motions. The peak RAO motion affected the ship motions noticeably because of the resonance at the natural frequency. The L/B and B/T ratios are important geometric parameters of a ship that significantly influence its RMS motion, particularly in the case of roll and pitch. The change in the B/T ratio has a good seakeeping performance based on a comparison of the roll and pitch with the seakeeping criteria. The present results provide insights into the seakeeping performance of ships due to the influence of the principal dimensions in the design stage.

This research was conducted to investigate the changes in soil chemical properties of root media as influenced by incorporation rate of a polyacryl amide hydrogel, Stocksorb C. The pH at 5 weeks after treatment in four root media such as peatmoss + vermiculite (1:1, v/v; PV), peatmoss + composted rice hull (1:1; PR), peatmoss + composted saw dust (1:1; PD) and peatmoss + composted pine bark (1:1; PB) containing STSB were in the range from 7.04 to 7.30, which was too high. Elevated incorporation rate of STSB resulted in increase of EC in soil solution of four root media with linear and quadratic response. The concentrations of $NH_4^+-N,\;NO_3^--N,\;PO_4-P^{3-},\;K^+,\;Ca^{2+}and\;Mg^{2+}$ in four kinds of root media increased as incorporation rates of STSB were elevated. But the $NO_3^-$-N concentrations in PS media were lower than those in other there root media tested. The Fe concentrations in PV, PR and PS media increased as incorporation rates of STSB were elevated, but those in PB medium did not show significant different. The concentrations of $Fe^{2+},\;Mn^{2+},\;Zn^{2+}and\;Cu^{2+}$ in PS media were higher than those in other three root media.

In this paper, fatigue tests are conducted for the specimens with longitudinal and transverse attachment under variable amplitude axial loading based on storm model. Considered loadings include repeated single storm, 6 or 8 storms randomly, and storms including calm sea condition while the mean stress and the maximum stress of loadings are changed. The effect of three variables are investigated; root mean square(RMS) value of stress amplitude, mean stress shift and maximum stress, which can characterize storm loading on fatigue life. In addition, experiments including calm sea loading are also carried out to investigate the effect of calm sea state. Test results are evaluated and compared with DNV-CN2005 and Matsuoka's method for the estimation of crack initiation and propagation life. To verify the validity of the criteria, the measured crack initiation lifes are compared with the specific crack length 15mm, which are calculated with beach marks.
