The optimal type and discharging position of ocean outfall of wastewater have been determined by hydrodynamic modeling, near-field dilution modeling, and far-field dispersion modeling. Tide and tidal currents have been simulated by a finite element hydrodynamic model showing good agreements with field observations. Based on the hydrodynamic simulation results candidates of ocean outfall position were preliminary determined. Submerged single port and submerged multi-port diffuser were selected as discharging system alternatives and finally designed by considering tide, tidal currents and water depth. Initial dilution of wastewater discharged from the designed ports has been estimated by CORMIX system. A 2-dimensional random-walk dispersion model has been employed to simulate far-field dispersion of discharged wastewater.

The thermophilic fungus Thermoascus aurantiacus 179-5 produced large quantities of a glucosidase which preferentially hydrolyzed maltose over starch. Enzyme production was high in submerged fermentation, with a maximal activity of 30 U/ml after 336 h of fermentation. In solid-state fermentation, the activity of the enzyme was 22 U/ml at 144 h in medium containing wheat bran and 5.8 U/ml at 48 h when cassava pulp was used as the culture medium. The enzyme was specific for maltose, very slowly hydrolyzed starch, dextrins (2-7G) and the synthetic substrate (${\alpha}$-PNPG), and did not hydrolyze sucrose. These properties suggest that the enzyme is a type II ${\alpha}$-glucosidase. The optimum temperature of the enzyme was $70^{\circ}C$. In addition, the enzyme was highly thermostable (100% stability for 10 h at $60^{\circ}C$ and a half-life of 15 min at $80^{\circ}C$), and stable within a wide pH range.

In this study, the method of estimating hydrologic information (water depth, submerged period etc.) on the proper selection of construction point and scale as well as vegetation type suggested for the design of natural riparian rehabilitation structure. Long-term comprehensive watershed model SWAT-K(Korea) was applied to this purpose. Flow duration analysis was conducted to analyze the hydrologic characteristics of Pyungchang watershed at which the 'bangtul' construction method was tested. For this purpose 20 years (1989-2008) rainfall runoff analysis was carried out. Based on the simulated daily streamflow data, flow duration curve was made to analyze the flow characteristics, and the water depth hydrograph was made to analyze the water depth distribution at the cross section. Finally, the information for the selection of proper vegetation according to the submerged period is suggested.

In the construction of dam, the key factor which decides the type of dam is security of materials resource. Because of the large scale earth work, the ability to supply the materials is essential part about economical efficiency. The research is the case study about controlling the plan to secure the material resources in the design of Buhang multipurpose dam. In case of Buhang multipurpose dam, at that time of basic design, it was planned to use a rock fill material. From the detail investigation about the river bed accumulative layer widely spread on the submerged district on the basic design, the research is accomplished to replace rock material with gravel material. After the investigation of whole reserves of gravel material, estimation of conformity as dam construction material from analysis of grain size distribution, the case study of oversea construction, and the material property comparison between rock fill material and gravel fill material, it is verified th possibility of using the gravel fill. Thereafter, the analysis of dam stability using a gravel fill material is accomplished. Finally, A gravel fill material can be used as the main construction material of CFRD, therefore the efficiency of resource recycling in the submerged area is maximized, and the established plan is more advantageous to stability, constructibility, environmentibility than the case of using a rock fill.

1) Higher yield of red color was observed by the isolated strain (Monascus D-7) than the type cultures in steamed rice medium. 2) In a case of Monascus purbigerus IAM 8004, best yield of color was obtained at Lin's submerged culture medium containing 1% wheat bran, 2% starch and 3% corn meal instead of rice powder as carbon source. However, in a case of isolated strain (M. D-7), good result was shown at 1% rice bran and 2% starch as a source of carbon in Lin's medium. 3) Good yields were obtained from both strains in Nishikawa's medium which was added with 3% defatted soybean flour. 4) There were no significant differences in pigment extractability among solvents. Extracted pigment was stable in wide range of pH and heat, whereas relatively unstable in sunlight. 5) Toxicological study of extracted pigment determined $LD_{50}$ at 0.2539g/20g, when injected in mouse. When injected in to mouse in 25% ethanol solution: considering the toxicity of ethanol, the toxicity of pigment itself is believed to be none.

A steel-type breakwater that uses a submerged dual horizontal porous plate was originally proposed by Kweon et al. (2005), and its hydrodynamic characteristics and design methodology were investigated in a series of subsequent researches. In particular, Kweon et al. (2011) proposed a method of estimating the vertical uplift force that acts on the horizontal plate, applicable to the design of the pile uplift drag force. However, the difference between the method proposed by Kweon et al. (2011), and the wave force measured at a different time without a phase difference, have not yet been clearly analyzed. In this study, such difference according to the method of estimating the wave force was analyzed, by measuring the wave pressure acting on a breakwater model. The hydraulic model test was conducted in a two-dimensional wave flume of 60.0 m length, 1.5 m height and 1.0 m width. The steepness range of the selected waves is 0.01~0.03, with regular and random signals. 20 pressure gauges were used for the measurement. The analysis results showed that the wave force estimate in the method of Kweon et al. (2011) was smaller than the wave force calculated from the maximum pressure at individual points, under a random wave action. Meanwhile, the method of Goda (1974) that was applied to the horizontal plate produced a smaller wave force, than the method of Kweon et al. (2011). The method of Kweon (2011) was already verified in the real sea test of Kweon et al. (2012), where the safety factor of the pile uplift force was found to be greater than 2.0. Based on these results, it was concluded that the method of estimating the wave force by Kweon et al. (2011) can be satisfactorily used for estimating the uplift force of a pile.

In this study, permeation experiments were carried out using the symmetric and asymmetric sinusoidal flux continuous operation (SFCO) modes for the submerged flat sheet membrane in the 0.5 wt% emulsion type cutting oil solution. The effective area and nominal pore size of the used microfiltration membrane were $0.02m^2$ and $0.15{\mu}m$, respectively. The emulsion cutting oil was rejected over 99% based on turbidity. Transmembrane pressure increased lower as the aeration rates increased. The symmetric SFCO mode was a little more effective than the symmetric SFCO mode in low permeate flux between 10 and $15L/m^2{\cdot}h$. However, the symmetric SFCO mode was shown very effectively in high permeate flux between 25 and $30L/m^2{\cdot}h$.

The effect of organic material loadings on nutrient removal characteristics were investigated in sequencing batch reactor, in which a flat sheet type microfiltration membrane with a pore size of $0.4\;{\mu}m$ was submerged. Three organic concentrations of 200 mg/L (Run-1), 400 mg/L (Run-2) and 800 mg/L (Run-3) were carried out continuously to identify their effect on the filtration performance and nutrient removal. The removal efficiencies of T-N and T-P were increased with the increase of COD/N and COD/P. The T-N removal efficiencies of Run-1, Run-2 and Run-3 were 28.1, 32.6 and 90.4%, the average concentrations of T-N in permeate were 32.0, 30.0, and 4.3 mg/L, respectively. The T-P removal efficiencies of Run-1, Run-2 and Run-3 were 13.6, 35.3 and 93.1%, the average concentrations of T-P in permeate were 3.11, 2.33, and 0.25 mg/L, respectively.

Statement of problem: $Periotest^(R)\;and\;Osstell^{TM}$ were known as the most objective and quantitative mobility tests available for evaluating stability of implant in vivo. Although a correlation between PTV widely used and ISQ recently introduced exist, a PTV was corresponded to various ISQ. A correct evaluation of implant stability could be obtained only after one has a thorough understanding of the limitations of devices and factors that affect measurements. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the causes of variables in the values obtained with these two tests. Material and method: A total of 333 implants 134 $Br{\aa}nemark$, 5 Silhouette and 194 ITI implants were investigated. Result: 1. There was a correlation between PTV and ISQ (Spearman correlation =0.39, p<0.0001) 2. The factors that affected ISQ were diameter of implant future, location of implant and implant system (submerged type vs non-submerged type). 3. The factors that affected W were dimeter of implant future, location of implant, and elapsed time after implant placement. 4. There was no significant difference between different surface treatments of RBM, smooth surface and ti-unite on PTY and ISQ. 5. In radiographic finding, no saucerization or bone resorption has been detected in implants with ISQ values that were above the average level of each PTV. These higher values had higher bone densities around the implant fixture. Saucerization was observed in the most impants with ISQ values that were below the average level of each PTV. Conclusion: There was a correlation between ISQ and PTV. However, each measuring methods had factors influencing the measured values. PTV were less sensitive to marginal bone resorption and influenced with the striking point on an implant to the level of bone. With ISQ, the height of implant from bone level to transducer should be considered.

When the shell-type roller gate is partly open, at a certain height the large vibration is caused due to resonance and the vibration can cause damage to the gate. In this study, the review on amplitude of vibration and the possible resonance occurring at the time of opening or closing of gate is performed. Throughout the natural frequency analysis, the installation location of the measuring instrument was selected. On opening or closing of gate, the measurement of gate vibration is performed. The natural frequencies according to the opening range of the gate is analyzed. As a result of measurement and analysis, we proposed ranges in which vibration occurs largely and resonance is predicted as an avoiding open ranges, or the safe opening or closing of the shell-type roller gate. The application of this paper's avoiding open range estimation method of shell-type roller gate can be utilized as the basic data for the systematic and rational maintenance management of dams and submerged weirs in the future, and it is expected that this study can bring forth.
