The reality which cannot protect existing tangible intangible modern cultural heritage in Daejeon is makes historical value and identity of a city weakened and then, this leads to absence of the foundation of urban regeneration based on the history. References as recording inheritance indicates characteristics or identity of the area and they represent the physical mental symbol of the area; images of diverse structures or sceneries with historical or cultural characteristics are contents of urban regeneration based on history and culture, which can be utilized as historical sources to verify realness of disappearing modern cultural heritage. Therefore, understanding and utilization of modern cultural heritage through this study on regional archiving can be deemed to be the first stage to bring community spirit, affection and pride to local residents. In this connection, this study intends to suggest a policy direction not only to maintain realness of modern cultural heritage through preservation and utilization but also to expect formation of settling and fellowship as well as cultural economical effect from the viewpoint of urban regeneration.

Objective : The purpose of this study was to investigate prevalence and clinical characteristics of Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) in North Korean defectors (NKD). Methods : The study population consisted of 300 NKDs registered in the multi-regional adaptation center (Hana Center), within three years of settling in South Korea. We conducted in-person interviews and a survey with each subject, based on the North Korean version of the WHO-Composite International Diagnostic Interview (NK-CIDI) and various clinical scales. Results : Lifetime prevalence of PTSD in NKDs was 15.3%, approximately nine times higher than South Koreans (1.7%). Although experiencing broader type of traumas with higher rate than South Koreans, NKDs revealed lower odds of PTSD in most type of trauma (p<0.05). Conclusion : NKDs are at higher risk of experiencing different types of trauma than the general population in South Korea, and it is further validated that prevalence of PTSD is also higher. Careful evaluation for comorbid psychiatric symptoms and type of traumas prior to PTSD treatment for NKDs is necessary to facilitate more appropriate intervention for each subject, according to personal experience.

Flow distribution of water and sedimentation rate were investigated to understand the hydrodynamics and settling characteristics of particulate materials in a constructed wetland for treatment of non-point sources pollutants, the Sihwa constructed wetland, Korea. The Sihwa constructed wetland is divided into three sub-wetlands(the Banwol, the Donghwa and the Samhwa wetlands) to treat the polluted water from three streams, the Banwol stream, the Donghwa stream and the Samhwa stream. From the results of water flow experiment using dye(Rhodamine 50WT Red), it was found that the water flow in the wetland was prevailing at the waterway and open water. Dye was spread slowly in the closed water area planted by plants. The mean hydraulic retention time(HRT) at the upper area of high wetland and lower wetland of Banwol, was found to be 34.1 hr at the upper area and 74.6 hr at the lower area respectively, totaling approximately 108.7 hr(4.5 days). The sedimentation rate was higher at lower area(sites of B, C and D) of the wetland than upper area(site of A which is settling zone). Based on the forecast for 20 years as to the amount of sediment that can be deposited in the open water in the future, the sediment depth of each area would be like this: A: 6.3 cm, B: 8.3 cm, C: 7.0 cm, D: 9.5 cm. The contents of organic materials in the sediment deposited within the sediment trap were found to be higher overly in the first investigation period which had much rainfall, and B, C and D areas were found to have an increased COD accumulation than A area. Also, nitrogen and phosphorus were found to increase in the down-stream of the wetland. The results of this study suggest that a sustainable research and management for the characteristics of water flow pattern and sedimentation changeable as time passes is needs to maintain or improve the efficiency of water treatment in the constructed wetland.

The Korea's automotive industry have been achieved a remarkable growth with various original models since the first original model ‘Pony’for the 25years. Most of the design works were depended upon the designers of the other countries on the early times, but now the design work gets to have the independency with our own technology and the automobile is now one of the major exporting goods of Korea to other countries. The basic design concept of the body shape can be considered into four types, and they have their own characteristics. The period of time for the original model developement of the Korean auto makers can be thought as four periods ; introducing period, settling period, developing period and matured period are them. The models that developed on each period reflects the characteristics of the times with designers, technology and market conditions. The basic design concepts of the Korean car body show the variety but the concepts have been intergrated into the two types as the time gose by. This tendency would comes form mainly technology, but the consumers characteristics of the market would also influence as much as the technological reason. It would become more important on developing the original model with the autonomy in design concept of the body through grasping the change of formal characteristics clearly on an automobile in the future.

This research is the result of investigating engineering characteristics of slime generated during construction of deep mixing method. Mechanical characteristics of slime have been studied through literature review and laboratory tests of unconfined compression test, permeability test and settling tests were performed. As result of field observation of slime being generated, slime started to be produced right after flight auger was penetrated into a ground and its amount was increased in progress. Unconfined compressive strength of specimen with slime obtained from in field was measured in the range of $929.7{\sim}3,509.8kN/m^2$ and the value of unconfined compressive strength was found to be changed significantly with mixing ratio of soil, cement and binder. Permeability of them was measured in the range of $4.53{\times}10^{-7}{\sim}6.62{\times}10^{-6}cm/sec$ so that the mixture was appropriate as a impervious barrier. It was also know that the value of permeability was changed with the mixing ratio of binder. As test results of solidifying slime specimen prepared in the laboratory, good quality of cement mixture with coarse soil of sand were produced, compared with fine soils of silt and clay.

In order to determine the moisture content level for safe storage of wild vegetables, drying characteristics and water vapor sorption characteristics of four vegetables, i.e., zucchini slice, sweet potato stem, taro stem, and platycodon, were investigated. The drying curves of these vegetables were consisted of three characteristic stages which were the initial settling down period, the constant drying rate period, and the falling drying rate period. And the falling rate period of the vegetables showed 2 or 3 parts of falling rate. All of the falling rate curves of the vegetables showed upwardly convex shape which is known as a characteristic pattern for the drying of fibrous food materials. The critical moisture contents of the vegetables were $8.29{\sim}9.75,\;10.40{\sim}15.08,\;9.51{\sim}14.52\;and\;3.29{\sim}3.56g\;H_2O/g$ dry solids for zucchini slice, sweet potato stem, taro stem, and platycodon, respectively. Activation energy values of drying rate during falling rate period were 2.30, 2.11, 4.97, and 2.80 kcal/mol for zucchini slice, sweet potato stem, taro stem, and platycodon respectively. The BET monolayer moisture contents of the vegetables were $10.05{\sim}13.59,\;9.49{\sim}12.69,\;9.50{\sim}16.48\;and\;5.01{\sim}5.44g\;H_2O/g$ dry solids for zucchini slice, sweet potato stem, taro stem, and platycodon, respectively. And these values were found to be very compatible with the values of the critical moisture content. Consequently, it was found that the moisture of these vegetables should be removed below the BET monolayer moisture content or below the critical moisture content for the long term storage.

All of the CMOS analog and analog-digital systems have composed with several basic circuits, and among them, a important block, the amplifier part can affect the system's performance, Therefore, according to the uses in the system, the amplifier circuit have designed as various architectures (high-gain, low-noise, high-speed circuit, etc...). In this paper, we have proposed a new CMOS differential amplifier circuit. This circuit is differential to single ended input stage comprised of CMOS complementary gain circuits having internally biasing configurations. These architectures can be achieved the high gain and reduced the transistors for biasing. As a results of SPICE simulation with the standard $1.5{\mu}m$ processing parameter, the gain of the proposed circuit have a doubly value of the typical circuit's while maintaining other characteristics(phase margin, offset, etc...). And the proposed circuit is applicated in a simple CMOS comparator which has the settling time in 7nsec(CL=1pF) and the igh output swing $({\pm}4.5V)$.

The objectives of this study are to examine the applicability of waste slurry from soda ash manufacturing industries as a coagulant for the treatment of wastewater containing fine silica particles, and to reduce the cost of wastewater treatment containing silica. Acceptable water quality can be obtained with a little dosing of waste slurry by gelation before the coagulation process so it could be concluded that the waste slurry from soda ash can be used as a coagulant. Based on the results of experiments, the optimum pH of gelation for silica in wastewater was around five and the treatment process with the gelation of silica could reduce the chemical dosage and waste sludge after coagulation. Dewatering and settling characteristics of the floc after coagulation with the waste slurry are better than those of the floc after coagulation with the lime milk only.
