The settling rate of the dredged soil may vary with mineral composition, grain size distribution, initial con contration and salt concentration of suspension of the site. A series of settling column test was performed to investigate the settling rate characteristics of solid suspension material from dredging and reclamation. The settling rate of soil mixed with various size of particles depended on clay fraction which showed a inherent flux. A model was developed to predict the particle flux of mixed soil from the clay flux and its applicability was verified.

Recently far infra-red (FIR) polarization of the $850{\mu}m$ continuum emission from T Tauri disks has been detected. The observed degree of polarization is around 3 %. Since thermal emission from dust grains dominates the spectral energy distribution at the FIR regime, dust grains might be the cause of the polarization. We explore alignment of dust grains by radiative torque in T Tauri disks and provide predictions for polarized emission for disks viewed at different wavelengths and viewing angles. In the presence of magnetic field, these aligned grains produce polarized emission in infrared wavelengths. When we take a Mathis-Rumpl-Nordsieck-type distribution with maximum grain size of $500-1000{\mu}m$, the degree of polarization is around 2-3 % level at wavelengths larger than ${\sim}100{\mu}m$. Our study indicates that multifrequency infrared polarimetric studies of protostellar disks can provide good insights into the details of their magnetic structure.

To evaluate the oceanographic conditions for the artificial upwelling we measured vertical stratification coefficients, current speed distribution and grain size distribution of bottom sediment in the vicinity of Gukdo and Somaemuldo near Geojedo. There were a strong stratification between surface and bottom layers in summer, the stratification was weak from autumn to winter, and the water was well mixed during winter. In summer nutrient concentration of the bottom layer was 4 times higher than that of the surface layer. Underwater currents were strong in the bottom layer. We conclude that the oceanographic conditions in the area will meet the basic requirement for the construction of artificial upwelling.

The effects of fluid flow on the purification of aluminum were studied. As the revolution rate(N) increased, the size of columnar grain decreased gradually. The concentration of solidified crystal was decreased with increasing distance from chill and revolution rate(N). Distribution boundary layer thickness(${\delta}$) was calculated from the solute distribution obtained in solid experimentally and by use of BPS equation. The value of ${\delta}$ changed from about $60{\mu}m$ at N value of 27rpm to about $15{\mu}m$ at N value of 1000rpm. From this result, high purification was obtained by decreasing the diffusion boundary layer under forced convection.

An externally applied magnetic field during heat treating the $Nd_2Fe_{14}B/Fe_3B$ based spring magnet was found to enhance the exchange coupling between the hard and soft magnetic grains. More than 30% increase in $M_r/M_s$ values for melt-spun $Nd_2Fe_{73.5}Co_3$$(Hf_{1-x}Ga_x)B_{18.5}$ (x=0, 0.5, 1) alloys was resulted from a uniform distribution of $Fe_3B, \alpha-Fe$ and $Nd_2Fe_{14}B$ phases, and also from a reduced grain size of those phases by 20%. The externally applied magnetic field induced a uniform distribution of fine grains. A study of Mossbauer effect also report that the enhancement of total magnetization of nanocomposite $Nd_2Fe_{14}B/Fe_3B$ alloys is attributed to an increased formation of $Fe_3$B after magnetic annealing.

In this study the confining pressure dependancy of internal friction angle of rock materials are discussed based on the results of a series of large triaxial tests under consolidated-drained condition. The rock materials tested are two kinds of grain-size distribution ;one is well graded, the other poorly graded(a uniform distribution). The obtained results shows that the internal friction angle of rock materials decreases more sharply in low stress level than in high stress level, and the test constants A and b in De Mello's failure criterion on rockfill materials are A =0.683∼l.584, b=0.712∼l.015 for the well graded and A=1.145∼l.523, b=0.788∼0.880 for the poorly graded.

0.36[wt%l $SiO_{2}$ and 0.1[wt%] $H_{3}$B $O_{3}$ were added to strontium ferrite magnets of the magnetoplumbite phase SrO.5.7F $e_{2}$ $O_{3}$ to hinder grain growth and accelerate sintering, respectively. This experiment was carried out to investigate effect of particle size distribution as a function of milling time(20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70 hours) on the magnetic properties of SrO.5.7F $e_{2}$ $O_{3}$ ferrite magnet. The B-H curve, density and the degree of orientation were measured. And the microstructure of ferrite magnets was examined with a SEM. The optimal conditions and properties of the typical sample are the following : The milling time was 60 hours. Magnetic and physical properties are $B_{r}$=4, 000[G], $_{b}$ $H_{c}$=3, 330[Oe], (BH)max=3.786[MGOe], $_{I}$ $H_{c}$=3, 525[Oe], density=5.0063[g/c $m^{3}$] and orientation factor f=0.813.0.813.3.3.

Copper slag is produced about 700,000 tons annually though copper refining process in Korea. In the paper, a laboratory investigation was carried out to estimate the geotechnical properties of copper slag and examine the feasibility of using the copper slag as a substitute for conventional construction materials and the improvement of the soft clay deposit. The specific gravity of copper slag is 3.45, and pH is 7.83. And the size distribution of the copper slag is well graded, so usage of copper slag will be extended in Geotechnical engineering fields. Copper slag has the permeability of 3.502${\times}$10￣$^2$cm/sec, which is satisfied with the criterion of sand drainage materials.. At the same time, it is thought to be suitable material for sand mat since it meets JIS of grain size distribution. The content of CaO from steel slag is about 40 percent while that of CaO from copper slag is about 5 percent. Based on this fact, copper slag has less hardening property compared to steel slag. Therefore, copper slag can be used as vertical drains, filters, and sand mats for improving the soft deposit.

Effects of casting Processes and lubricant addition were studied to improve remanence of 31RE-68TM-lB based sintered magnet by using axial pressing process. Strip casting was effective to get the fine and homogeneous microstructure without ${\alpha}$-Fe segregation. The strip cast flake resulted in narrower particle size distribution after jet milling with respect to the conventional cast ingot. During pressing step with a magnetic field, the particle alignment was increased by appropriate addition of liquid lubricant. In this study, it was revealed that narrow particle size distribution and appropriate addition of liquid lubricant were essential to improve the grain alignment and thus the remanence of Nd-Fe-B sintered magnet.

The soil-water characteristic curve(SWCC) is a useful tool in the prediction of the engineering behavior of unsaturated soils. Several equations are available in the literature to mathematically represent the experimental behavior of the SWCC. Some equations are based on the assumption that the shape of curve is dependent upon pore-size distribution. Other equations assume that SWCC can be estimated from the grain size distribution and the physical properties of soils. This study evaluated the suitability of using two different SWCC equations for defining the relationship between water content and matric suction. Various parameters that influence the SWCC behavior are also briefly discussed.
