A new type of uranium occurrence in Korea was identified in pegmatitic and hydrothermally altered granite in the Daejeon area. The U-bearing parts typically include muscovite, pink-feldspar and sericite as alteration minerals. In this study, the geochemical characteristics and alteration age of the granitic rocks were examined to provide evidence for hydrothermally-enriched uranium. The K-Ar ages of muscovite coexisting with U-bearing minerals were determined as 123 and 128 Ma. The U-bearing rocks have relatively low ($CaO+Na_2O$), high $K_2O$ contents, and high alteration index values by major element geochemistry. The trace element geochemistry shows that the uraniferous rocks have significantly low Th/U ratios and strongly differentiated features. The rare earth element patterns indicate that the uraniferous rocks have a low total REE and LREE contents with depletion of Eu. Considering the geochemical variation of the granitic rock major, trace and rare earth elements, it can be concluded that uranium enrichment in pegmatites and altered granite should be genetically related to post-magmatic hydrothermal alteration of K-metasomatism after emplacement of the two-mica granite. This is the first report for geochemical characteristics of Mesozoic granite-related U-occurrences in South Korea. This study will help further research for uranium deposits with similarities in geological setting, mineralogy and age data between South China and Korea, and can also be expected to help solve the source problems related to high uranium concentrations in some groundwater occurring in the granitic terrane.

Generally we are used to apply waveform coding method obtaining the high quality synthesized speech. But we have to solve the problems, memory capacity and pitch alteration, for applying the waveform coding method to speech synthesis by rule. The former problem is conquered by improving the integrated semiconductor technology, but the latter problem remains. In this paper, we compare the methods that have proposed for pitch alteration in our laboratory until now. These methods are not change properties of vocal tract formants and only altered the pitch halving method, 1.14% for cepstrum analysis method, and 2.36% for hamonics compensated with the phase method.

The Kyungju pyrophyllite deposits were formed by the hydrothermal alteration of andesitic rocks, which were intruded by Cretaceous granite mass. The major minerals are pyrophyllite, kaolinite and chlorite. The deposits may be zoned outward into pyrophyllite zone, silicified pyrophyllite zone and weakly altered zone (propyrilite zone) according to mineral assemblages. Chemical compositions vary in close relation with the mineralogical assemblages: $Al_2O_3$ content is high due to pyrophyllitization at the deposits and altered zones in comparison to andesitic country rocks, while the contents of $Na_2O$, CaO and MgO are generally low due to leaching during the alteration. This variation of chemical elements may be applicable in the geochemical exploration of pyrophyllite deposits.

In the case of speech synthesis, the waveform coding method with high quality is mainly used to the synthesis by analysis. Because the parameters of this coding method are not classified as both excitation and vocal tract parameters, it is difficult to apply the waveform coding method to the synthesis by rule. Thus, in order to apply the waveform coding method to the synthesis by rule, a pitch alteration is required for the prosody control. In the speech synthesis method by the conventional PSOLA technique, applying symmetric window function to asymmetric speech waveform, it occurs the unbalance phenomenon of energy according to the overlapped degree of pitch interval adjustment. In this paper to overcome the unbalance phenomenon of energy, we proposed a new method that can convert asymmetric waveform to symmetric one by time-frequency conversion. As a result, we can obtain an average spectrum distortion ratio with 6.38% according to the pitch alteration ratio.

X-ray, optical and electron microscope studies exhibit that the amphiboles in anorthositic saprolite from kaolin deposits, located in Suryun-myeon, Seongju-gun, Kyungsangbuk-do, have altered under weathering conditions to smectite, mixed-layer mineral, vermiculite and goethite. In early supergene alteration stage when rock structure is still preserved, smectite occurs as initial weathering product of amphibole. Further weathering leads to the formation of mixed-layer mineral, vermiculite and goethite as indicated by XRD and SEM studies. Scanning electron microscopy studies of amphibole show that the dissolution of amphibole proceeds by selective etching at the surface along weaker zones producing distinct etch pattern, The calcic amphiboles according to electron microprobe analyses, show leaching of the most mobile elements (Mg, Ca and Fe) during alteration.

Synapse is the basic structural and functional component for neural communication in the brain. The presynaptic terminal is the structural and functionally essential area that initiates communication and maintains the continuous functional neural information flow. It contains synaptic vesicles (SV) filled with neurotransmitters, an active zone for release, and numerous proteins for SV fusion and retrieval. The structural and functional synaptic plasticity is a representative characteristic; however, it is highly vulnerable to various pathological conditions. In fact, synaptic alteration is thought to be central to neural disease processes. In particular, the alteration of the structural and functional phenotype of the presynaptic terminal is a highly significant evidence for neural diseases. In this review, we specifically describe structural and functional alteration of nerve terminals in several neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and Huntington's disease (HD).

Structural vibrations are among the biggest concerns in developing high resolution DVR(Digital Video Recorder) monitors. The vibrations in DVR monitors are mostly originated from the excitation sources such as the HDD and the cooling fan. In this study, the vibrations generated from the excitation sources were investigated in order to analyze the individual effect on the structural vibrations of the monitors and further to establish the design alteration to suppress the vibrations for the stability of the structure and for the better quality of the screen. The result shows that relatively simple design alterations can improve the stability of the structure substantially.

According to the result obtained by the CIA analysis(A-CN-K and A-CNK-FM ternary diagram), the chemical weathering of granitic grus in Chuncheon basin is too weak, thus calcium and sodium may not be dissolved sufficiently, but go as far as to be more progress than that of Yeongju-Bonghwa basin, Jeongeup, Nonsan and Namwon, common granitic grus in Korean Peninsula. Therefore the chemical characteristics of granitic hills in Chuncheon basin show that granitic weathered mantles are not saprolite formed by alteration while this may be true for guns(sandy weathered mantles). The weathered mantles of inner hills in the basin is slightly altered, footslope of mountains are more altered, and footslope hills are undergone some alteration. But their alteration doesn't show any advances to saprolite, and most of them are still in incipient weathering stage.

본 논문에서는 해남지역의 점토광상인 성산, 옥매산 및 해남광상을 연구대상으로 하였다. 열수변질을 받은 각 점토광상은 중심으로부터 주변부로 감에 따라 변질대를 형성하고 있는데, 성산광상의 경우 카올린대, 카올린-석영대, 견운모대 및 녹니석대의 변질대가, 옥매산광상의 경우 석영대, 명반석대, 카올린대, 견운모대 및 녹니석대의 변질대가, 그리고 해남광상의 경우 석영대, 납석대, 견운모대 및 녹니석대의 변질대가 각각 나타나고 있다. 이같은 변질대들은 두 종류의 변질작용으로 구분될 수 있는데, 하나는 납석대, 명반석대, 석영대, 카올린대 및 카올린-석영대와 같은 산변질작용 (acidic alteration)이고, 다른 하나는 녹니석대와 일부 견운모대와 같은 프로필리틱 (prophylitic alteration) 이다. 모든 점토광상은 high sulfidation (acidic-sulfate) 계에 속한다. 산변질작용의 암석은 납석, 명반석, 카올린광물, 견운모, 석영 및 황철석 등으로 구성되어 있다. 전암화학분석의 결과 $SiO_2$, $TiO_2$, $Fe_2O_3$, MgO, CaO, $K_2O$ 및 $Na_2O$와 같은 원소들은 원암의 조성과 상당한 차이를 보여주고 있는데, 이같은 주원소들의 유동성은 각 변질대의 광물조합과 관련되어 이들에 영향을 주고 있다. 견운모의 폴리타잎(polytype) 은 X-선 회절분석결과, $2M_1$ 및 1M 형으로 밝혀졌다. 성산광상의 경우 $2M_1$ 및 1M 형이 거의 같은 비율로 나타나고, 옥매산광상의 경우 1M 형이 우세한 반면, 해남광상의 경우 $2M_1$ 형이 우세하게 나타나고 있다. 이같은 현상은 견운모의 형성온도를 반영하는 것으로, 해남광상이 가장 고온에서, 성산광상은 중간온도에서, 그리고 옥매산광상이 가장 저온에서 형성되었음을 지시해 준다. 전자현미 분석결과, 면반석의 Na/(K+Na)의 비율이 옥매산광상의 것이 성산광상의 명반석이 성산광상의 것보다 높은 것으로 나타났는데, 이는 옥매산광상의 것보다 상대적으로 고온에서 높은 Na/(K+Na) 값과 낮은 pH 값을 갖는 용액에서 형성되었음을 시사해 준다. 모든 분석결과를 종합하여 볼 때, 명반석은 hypogene 기원이며, steam-heated 환경에서 hydrogen sulfide의 산화작용에 의하여, 그리고 오늘날의 열수계에서 관찰할 수 있는 solfataric alteration의 결과로 형성되었음을 알 수 있다.
