The purpose of this research is to develop rapid setting cement latex modified concrete (RSLMC) which will be used to overlay bridge deck for maintaining and repairing. The main experimental variables were the types of rapid setting cement and variation of latex and antifoam agent contents were selected as admixture factor, then the properties of workability and strength development and durability properties were investigated. The results of this study show that latex content give increment of a slump due to surface tension in polymer particles and reduce unit weight of water for preservation of workability. In addition, When no and 1.6~3.2% antifoam agent were mixed, 8%, 2.0~3.8% were respectively obtained. An increasing the amount of latex produced concrete with increased flexural strength, but with slightly lower compressive strength. Rapid chloride permeability and freezing-thawing test carried out. As a results, according to increment of containing ratio antifoamer, strength of RSLMC increase, permeability showed lower value than ignorable 100 coulombs. Also, in the case of more than antifoamer 1.6%, the relativity dynamic modulus is mantained more than 90%, but in case of 0, 5%, it decrease. In consequence, with the view of strength and workability of RSLMC, it is considered that appropriate content ratio of antifoam agent and latex solid are respectively 1.6% by latex weight, 15% by cement weight.

This research was to examine the differences in post-harvest quality of melons depending on the harvest time after fruit setting. Musk melon cultivar 'K3' plants were grown in glass house conditions with a hydroponic system, and the fruits were harvested at 50, 60, and 70 days after fruit setting. The post-harvest characteristics of melons stored at 7℃ were measured over 32 days. The harvested fruits at 50, 60, 70 days after fruit setting did not differ significantly in weight, height, or size. Solid sugar content was highest in the fruits harvested at 70 days after fruit setting, but firmness, L* value, and respiration rate were highest in the fruits harvested at 50 days after fruit setting. When the harvested melons were stored at 7℃, 'K3' melons responded differently according to the harvest days after fruit setting. The major changes during storage of 'K3' melons can be summarized as follows: Firmness, respiration, moisture content, and general appearance index during storage were highest in the melons harvested at 50 days after fruit setting, but soluble solid content, fresh weight loss, and sensory evaluation were high in the melons harvested at 60 and 70 days after one. During storage at 7℃, there were no significant differences in the appearance of 'K3' melons harvested at different periods after fruit setting, but difference in soluble solid content and taste were noted. It is recommended that the fruit of 'K3' melon plants be harvested about 60 days after fruiting to provide consumers with the highest quality for taste and for storage.

A study on the development of material for a light weight partition wall using material of gypsum and waste paper is be considered to improve workability, setting time, properties of strength by use of $\beta$-Gypsum for controling setting time. According th the experiments, as quantity of gypsum in binder increase, workability and strength of specimens deteriorate. Appropriate quantity of $\beta$-Gypsum was 3~6% of binder and When it was used more than 10%, setting time was so fast. When additive quantity of waste paper has increased to 1%, flexural strength decreased to some 8~12% and density decreased abort 3% in comparison with otherwise specimen.

This study was carried out to investigate suitable pruning methods to avoid poor berry setting of 'Kyoho' grapevine in Suwon and Anseong areas. Light pruning increased percentage of bud bursts and number of shoots per bearing mother branches(BMB), cluster weight and percentage of berry sating but it decreased shoot length, number of leaves and, leaf area and leaf weight. There was little difference in soluble solids, titratable acidity, and anthocyanin contents of berries by the treatment of either light or heavy pruning. Shoot length became longer as diameter of BMB thickened, leaf area and chlorophyll content also became larger and diameter of BMB. Total carbohydrate and N, P, K, Ca, and Mg contents showed significantly little difference, but total carbohydrate and Ca contents showed a tendency of continuous increase as diameter of BMB thinned. Number of seeded berries per cluster became fewer as BMB thinned but percentage of berry setting showed an increasing tendency. Cluster weight, berry weight, berry number per cluster, soluble solids, anthocyanin content were higher in case of around 1cm of diameters of BMB.

Accelerators are used to speed up the construction by accelerating the setting time which helps in early removal of formwork thus leading to faster construction rate. Admixtures are used in mortar and concrete during or after mixing to improve certain properties of material which cannot be achieved in conventional cement mortar and concrete. The various industrial by products make nuisance and are hazardous to ecosystem as well. These wastes can be used in the construction industries to reduce the consumption of cement/aggregates, cost; and save the energy and environment by utilising waste and eliminate their disposal problem as well. The effect of calcium nitrate and triethanolamine (TEA) as accelerators and marble powder (MP) as waste material on the various properties of cement paste and mortar has been studied in the present work. The replacement ratio of MP was 0-10% @ 2.5% by weight of cement. The addition of calcium nitrate was 0% and 1%; and variation of addition of TEA was 0-0.1@ 0.025% and 0.1-1.0@ 0.1% by weight of cement. On the basis of setting time, some mix proportions were selected and further investigated. Setting time and soundness of cement paste; compressive strength and microstructure of mortar mix of selected mix proportions were studied experimentally at 3, 7 and 28 days aging. Results showed that use of MP, calcium nitrate, TEA and their combination reduced setting time of cement paste for all the mixes. Addition of calcium nitrate increased the compressive strength at all curing ages while MP and TEA decreased the compressive strength. The mechanism of additives was discussed through scanning electron microscope (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) analysis of the specimens.

In following addition of 0.3, -0.6, 0.8, 1.0 and 5 weight percent MgSiF66H2O studies have been made of the setting and hardening characteristics of ordinary portland cement. MgSiF66H2O retarded the setting time of ordinary portland cement and extended the induction pariod of the hydration. In ordinary portland cement the setting characteristics were drastically altered especially at high MgSiF66H2O contents. Evidence was also obtained by the formation of a KSiF6 which was very fine particle. The results wee as follows. 1. Slump was slightly decreased when MgSiF66H2O added. 2. Setting time was retarded depending on the amount of retarding agent 2 to 8 hours 3. Compressive strength was almost same or some increased in comparision with opc. 4. When MgSiF66H2O was added to cement paste K2SiF6 were formed It was fine-sized distributed uniformly in cement grain and caused retardation of cement setting.

As the results of analysis that are applying a heat pump using underground water as heat source of facility horticulture house, temperature change in house, growth of cultivated plants and the crop characteristic, the conclusion can be acquired as follows. It was possible to maintain the chamber temperature through operating heat pump with setting goal temperature at $16^{\circ}C$ and temperature variation at ${\pm}3^{\circ}C$. And cooling and heating coefficient of performance in heat pump system are different from setting room temperature and operation condition of equipment, totally in case that the setting temperature in house is low, the coefficient of performance and the in case that temperature departure is low. In case that the house does not heated, the result of the growth characteristic of cucumber planted last 50days is that cucumber grown in house equipped with heat pump is the most favorable growth characteristic due to maintaining a constant room temperature. After 90 days, the quantity and weight cucumber harvested in each house are averagely 9.8%, 13.1% increase and more heavy weight respectively. So it is researched that crop characteristic is superior.

The purpose of this research was to develop labor-saving cultural practices of cherry tomatoes in the deep flow technique (DFT) by omitting the process of raising seedling. Three cultivars, ‘Pepe’, ‘Pico’ and ‘Koko’ were propagated by the immediate setting of cuttings(lateral shoots) to the culture bed and by setting seedlings obtained by raising cuttings for 15 days, and grown in the standard and half - strength solution. 1. The immediate setting resulted in higher plants, larger number of leaves and larger leaf area during the early growth stage. And the harvest time was hastened by six days in the direct setting than that in the seedling setting. It was also earlier in ‘Pepe’, but not significant by different between two strengths of nutrient solution. 2. The average fruit weight was affected only by cultivars, but not by the type of cutting and the strength of nutrient solution. The highest yields were obtained from the immediate setting of ‘Pepe’ in other cultivars grown in the nutrient solution of standard strength. 3. Brix degree of treated cherry tomato juice was higher in ‘Pepe’ tomato cultured by immediate setting than others.

In this paper, we have a further discussion about quadratically hyponormal weighted shifts with weight sequence ${\alpha}:1,1,{\sqrt{a}},\left({\sqrt{b}},{\sqrt{c}},{\sqrt{d}}\right)^{\wedge}$ on the basis of sufficient conditions for positively quadratically hyponormal weighted shifts. We set examples of quadratically hyponormal weighted shifts with weight sequence of the above form, and also establish a general method for setting examples.
