This study conducts quantitative analysis with the use of GIS of characteristics of Buddhism relics spatial locations such as Buddhist temple sites. With the intention of analysis of the generally known Buddhist temple site locations from spatial side, following the Buddhism relics sites state, the present conditions of Buddhist temple sites was analyzed from the spatial point of view. The results of the present study are that, comparing with general location analysis, different characteristics of competitive strength which maintains Buddhist temple sites functioning until now are showing. In case of such cities as Chuncheon and Wonju, Buddhist temples exist in the areas of high locational competitiveness, and most of them were located in the areas which with relatively poor environment. On the other hand, comparing with Samchuk city case, the location environment of Buddhist temples there turned out to be excellent. Such results show that we can discover the special characteristics of Buddhism which holds the entire history for the space called the Korean Peninsula.

Reinforced concrete deep beams are general structural members used as transfer-girder, pile cap, foundation wall and so on. They have a complex stess formation. Generally, failure mechanisms differ from either continuous deep beams or simple supported deep beams. In continuous deep beams, a negative moment is occurred over intermediate support and the location of maximum moment coincide with high shear force. Therefore, failure usually occurs at this region. While on the other hand, in simple supported deep beam, the region of high shear coincides with the region of low moment. The web opening of deep beams for accepting a facility makes shear behaviors of deep beams more complex and gives rise to an expansion of crack around the opening and a decline of shear capacity of deep beams. Therefore, Engineers must determine a delicate reinforcement method to control a crack and increase a shear capacity. The purpose of this report is a computation of an effective reinforcement method through non-linear finite element method by means of adopting various reinforcement method as variables and a computation of shear capacity formula taking an effectiveness of reinforcement into consideration.

An attempt has been made to examine the characteristics of acoustic and MHD waves generated in stellar convection zones($4000\;K\;{\leq}\;T_{eff}\;{\leq}\;7000\;K$, $3\;{\leq}\;\log\;g\;{\leq}\;4.5$). With the use of wave generation theories formulated for acoustic waves by Stein (1967), for MHD body waves by Musielak and Rosner (1987, 1988) and for MHD tube waves by Musielak et al.(l989a, 1989b), the energy fluxes are calculated and their dependence on effective temperature, surface gravity and megnetic field strength are analyzed by optimization techniques. In computing magneto-convection models, the effect of magnetic fields on the efficiency of convection has been taking into account by extrapolating it from Yun's sunspot models(1968; 1970). Our study shows that acoustic wave fluxes are dominant in F and G stars, while the MHD waves dominant in K and M stars, and that the MHD wave fluxes vary as $T_{eff}^4{\sim}T_{eff}^7$ in contrast to the acoustic fluxes, as $T_{eff}^{10}$. The gravity dependence, on the other hand, is found to be relatively weak; the acoustic wave fluxes ${\varpropto}\;g^{-0.5}$, the longitudinal tube wave fluxes ${\varpropto}\;g^{0.3}$ and the transverse tube wave fluxes ${\varpropto}\;g^{0.3}$. In the case of the MHD body waves their gravity dependence is found to be nearly negligible. Finally we assesed the computed energy fluxes by comparing them with the observed fluxes $F_{ob}$ of CIV(${\lambda}1549$) lines and soft X-rays for selected main sequence stars. When we scaled the corrected wave fluxes down to $F_{ob}$, it is found that these slopes are almost in line with each other.

In this study, the influences of magnetization reversal and magnetic interaction on the coercivity of Sr-ferrite particles with different sizes were investigated through various magnetic measurements. The shape of the initial magnetization curve and the magnetic field dependence of the coercive force indicate that the magnetization reversal changes from domain nucleation to wall pinning as the particle size decreases. On the other hand, the Henkel plot, interaction field factor and ${\Delta}M(H)$ obtained from the DCD and IRM curves show that the strength of the dipolar interaction is increased with increasing the particle size. Therefore, it can be concluded that coercivity is closely related to magnetic interaction as well as magnetization reversal mechanism.

Among the geophysical exploration methods, electromagnetic (EM) survey must have the broadest range of instrumental systems and remarkable range of applications. There is a plethora of available techniques and instruments, and the depth of investigation and resolution are highly dependent on the particular systems used according to their operating frequency and source-receiver configuration. This diversity of EM systems, however, provides a wide range of instruments or methodologies to choose in order to select the most appropriate tool for the task in hand. This rather than being a disadvantage, would be a major strength of EM methods. Modern EM equipments are remarkably portable, considering their sophistication. Coupled with major advances in recent computer technology, accurate modeling and interpretation techniques are on the way of continuous development and upgrade which, in turn, make the EM methods to become much more heavily used, especially for engineering and environmental applications. We aim to provide a brief theoretical principles, survey techniques and case histories of some selected EM methods that can be applied to geotechnical and environmental problems in Korea.

Effect of pH variation in starting solution for the making of hydroxyapatite powder was studied in relation to the sinterability of the powder and their mechanical properties of the sintered hydroxyapatite ceramics. The sinterability of hydroxyapatite powder prepared at different pH was found to be improved with increase in pH value of the starting solutions. Thus the powders prepared from the higher pH solutions including 10.5, 11.0 and 11.5 could be well densified almost upto theoretical density by firing for 1 hr at 1,00$0^{\circ}C$. But the powder based on pH 10 exhibited less sinterability even being fired at much higher temperature of 1,10$0^{\circ}C$, it gave only 90-95% of theoretical density. On the other hand the powder prepared on the lowest pH value 9.5 could not be well densified and it could obtain only 78% of theoretical density even by firing at 1,30$0^{\circ}C$ for 1hr. It was found that prismatic crystals of whitlockite were always included in the sintered bodies based on the lower pH values as a minority crystalline phase together with the major crystalline phase of hydroxyapatite and its inclusion might impair the sinterability of powder. However in the case of the higher pH, the powder contained only hydroxyapatite as a crystalline phase on sintering without any minorities. The sphere shape of crystals might help effectively the densification of the bodies. The best mechanical properties could be obtained from the body of pH 11 sintered at 1,10$0^{\circ}C$, which gave 99.5% of theoretical density, 662Kg/$\textrm{mm}^2$ of vickers hardness and 1,352Kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ of diameteral compression strength.

Previous domestic studies on silos have been carried out in many ways in various fields. On the other hand, research on the design and construction of the silo itself have not be conducted actively and an economical approach is rare. The present study provides basic information to determine the scale of the most economical silo, while satisfying the necessary conditions required by construction companies or design firms. The analysis was carried out with various parameters for reinforced concrete structures, including four kinds of storage material (flour, granulated quicklime, sand, and iron ore), five capacity sizes (10,000, 30,000, 50,000, 70,000, 90,000 ton), eight variants of H/D (0.5~4), and three types of concrete compressive strengths (30, 35, 40 MPa). The findings established a general rule in that a silo designed between 1 and 3 H/D with a greater concrete strength (40MPa and over) depending on the type of storage material would be the most cost-effective (more than 50% of quantity and labor savings).

The insulation in buildings is very important. Insulation used in the building is largely divided into organic and inorganic insulation by its insulation material. Organic insulations material which are made of styrofoam or polyurethane are extremely vulnerable to fire. On the other hand, inorganic insulation such as mineral-wool and glass-wool are very week with moisture while they are non-flammable so that its usage is very limited. In this study, inorganic heat insulating material developed and the properties of thermal conductivity evaluated. The thermal conductivity and the water absorption of the sample in less than 50mm thickness of the board is less than 0.05W/mk, 3.0%. Bending strength and the water repellency is more than $25N/cm^2$, 98%.

One of technologies that make it possible for users to enjoy always-on Internet service using potable devices does be Wifi. However, users frequently feel its connection is not stable or its speed becomes slow. On the other hand, users see multiple available Wifi access points exist often. In this paper, we present a smartphone application, called to WiSMax, that periodically changes its Wifi connection to the best one among available Wifi access points to maximize its speed. Experimental results show that WiSMax presents faster Internet connection than IEEE802.11 as much as about fifteen percent and higher signal strength than IEEE802.11 as much as about five dBm.

The advanced analysis and optimal design of semi-rigid frame were presented. Advanced analysis can predict the combined nonlinear effects of connection, geometry, and material on the behavior and strength of semi-rigid frames. The Kishi-Chen power model was used to describe the nonlinear behavior of semi-rigid connections. Geometric nonlinearity was determined using stability functions. On the other hand, material nonlinearity was determined using the Column Research Council (CRC) tangent modulus and parabolic function. The direct search method proposed by Choi and Kim was used as optimization technique. The member with the largest unit value evaluated using the LRFD interaction equation was replaced one by one with an adjacent larger member selected from the database. The objective function was assumed as the weight of steel frame, with the constraint functions accounting for load-carrying capacities, deflections. inter-story drifts, and ductility requirement. Member sizes determined by the proposed method were compared with those derived using the conventional LRFD method.
