Chipping is an unavoidable phenomenon in the slot grinding process of hard and brittle materials. However, it should be reduced for the improvement of surface integrity in the manufacture of optical and semiconductor components. Electrolytic In-process Dressing (ELID) technique for metal bonded superabrasive grinding wheel has been developed for mirror surface grinding of hard and brittle materials. Electrically dressed wheel surface has sharply exposed abrasives and results in lower grinding force, higher grinding efficiency in grinding. The paper deals with a newly developed method for slot grinding using ELID and was implemented to improve grooved surface quality and decreases chipping size on the edge of the groove. As a result, we accomplished chipping-free grooves and obtained the clear ground surfaces on glass and WC.

This paper presents the possible application of a HTS superconducting power cable fro transmitting electric power in metropolitan areas, reflecting its important distinction such as compactness for installation in underground ducts and considerable efficiency improvement comparable to present underground cables. In this paper, we investigated characteristic and market scale compact HTS transmission cable which is possible to install in under-ground ducts. and reviewed its economical efficiency comparing to present existed CV cable construction and duct or tunnel installation.

This paper introduces a new method of improvement for marine soft ground, MLPP(Marine Large Pack Pile). The MLPP is a reinforcement technique for the conventional SCP or GCP piles by confining with geotextile pack. A pilot project at Busan New Port site and laboratory model tests were carried out to investigate the settlement reduction and bearing capacity enhancement effect of pack pile. The results of field and laboratory tests show that MLPP method can be a safe and economic alternative method for SCP and GCP.

Silicon wafers are required to be finished under the roughness of nanometer order for the subsequent chip fabrication processes. Recently, the finish grinding techniques have been researched for the improvement of accuracy and surface roughness simultaneously. Among them, the grinding technique using fine abrasive has been known as an easily accessible method. However, the manufacture of the fine grit grinding wheel has been very difficult because of the coherence of the grits. In this paper, the development of the ultrafine grit silica($SiO_2$) grinding wheel by the combination of the binder coating and the vacuum forming techniques is reported. And, the mechanochemical removal effects of the grinding conditions are discussed. Finally, a successful result of Ra O.4nm. Rmax 4nm in the ground surface roughness of a 6 inch silicon wafer was achieved.

The performance of MTI signal processors against composite clutter depends not only on the power density functions of the clutter spectrum, but also on the average radar cross sections and the average doppler frequencies of each clutter. In this paper the effect of composite clutter composed of different kinds of clutter such as ground and weather on the MTI signal processors, is compared in terms of MTI improvement factors and the method of comparison is provided.

The effect of the intercepting ratios on the water quality improvement was simulated by using Finite Segment Method in a urban river where intercepting sewer under the ground and constructing sewage treatment plant are now being proceeded. To simulate variations of the water quality caused by river flows, rating curve at each gaging station was derived from measurements. Water quality data were from the exiting observations at each key stations from 1990 to 1998, for 1999 and 2000 data we measured in creek and drainage ditch in addition to observation stations. It revealed that increasing the intercepting ratios improved the water quality.

The wetland is a biologically integrated system consisting of water, soil, bacteria, plants, and animals. The wetland helps sustain the ecosystem, control the micro-climate and flood, maintain the ground water level, and provide fishing grounds. From the environmental standpoint, the wetland plays a vital role in reducing water pollution by filtering out sand and other polluted matters, producing oxygen, absorbing chemicals and nutrients. For these reasons, interest in restoring the wetlands has been steadily increasing. Artificial wetland, which is also referred to as created wetland or constructed wetland, is an alternative to natural wetland. Like natural wetland, artificial wetland is environmentally friendly and can effectively lower pollutant levels. The Korea government is actively reviewing the construction of artificial wetlands in mining and water supply areas to decrease nonpoint pollutant sources. This paper attempts to develop a pollutant removal model for the water quality improvement function of artificial wetlands. Artificial wetland can improve the quality of the water; however, depending on the type of water inflow, vegetation and hydrology, its effect can be different.

Dynamic compaction is the ground improvement method by applying the impact energy. This impact energy can damage to adjacent structure in urban area. Therefore, if dynamic compaction method is applied, careful attention should be payed to surrounded structures. In this study, the method was performed in waste landfill and the frequency of vibrations were measured according to each distances, drop-heights, and vibrating directions. The measured data show that particle velocity bas low frequency and it is greatest in longitudinal direction. There was little differences between Maynes suggestion and measured data. Therefore, Maynes suggestion can be adopted if the range of vibration can be predicted. Also, It was found that minimum 45m distance is needed in order to satisfy the administrative code if dynamic compaction method is applied.

Force plate analysis was used to describe the effect of acupuncture on right knee osteoarthritis (OA) in a seven-year-old hound breed dog weighing 27 kg. The acupuncture treatment was performed twice a week for 3 weeks. Ground reaction forces (GRFs) and subjective clinical scores in both hind limbs were obtained prior to and 72 hours after each treatment. Right vertical peak force was increased as the dog was acupunctured. Although their sensitivity was lower than that of the GRF data, the subjective clinical scores reflected an improvement. In addition, vertical peak force of normal left hind limb was also increased during this trial. These results indicate that gait analysis may be valuable objective method in future evaluation of acupuncture for OA of the stifle joint.
