To evaluate the biohazard properties of an extremely low frequency electromagnetic field (ELF-EMF), we explored the physical properties of the ELF-EMF that generates the electric current induction in the secondary coil from the chamber of a primary solenoid coil. We subsequently explored the biological effects of a strong alternating electromagnetic field (EMF), ranging from 730-960 Gauss, on the mouse testis. Mice were exposed to an alternating EMF field induced by a rectangular electric current at 1, 7, 20, 40, and 80 Hertz, for 1, 3, 5, and 7 hours. The mouse testes were examined for proliferative activity and apoptosis using the in situ terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT) method and by immunostaining of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), respectively. We found that the electric currentm induction increased in the 6-8 Hertz range, and that exposure to an ELF-EMF induced the apoptosis of mouse spermatocytes. In situ TdT staining was found to be most prominent in 7 Hertz group, and gradually reduced in the 20, 40, and 80 Hertz groups. These data suggest that a strong EMF can induce reproductive cell death within a short time, and the harmful effects of the EMF are maximal at low frequency alternating EMFs.

Investigating the physical and chemical properties of riverine wetlands is necessary to understand their distribution characteristics and depositional environment. This study investigated the physical (particle size, color, and type) and chemical properties (organic, inorganic, and moisture contents) of sediments in Samrak wetland, located in the Nakdong River estuary area in Busan, South Korea. The particle size analysis indicated that the hydraulic conductivity values for the coarse grain and the mixture of coarse and fine grains ranged from 2.03 to 3.49×10^-1 cm s^-1 and 7.18×10^-3 to 1.24×10^-7 cm s^-1, respectively. In-situ water quality and laboratory-based chemical analyses and radon-222 measurement were performed on groundwater and surface water in the wetland and water from the nearby Nakdong River. The physical and chemical properties of Samrak wetland was characterized by the sediments in the vertical and lateral direction. The concentrations of chemical components in the wetland groundwater were distinctly higher than those in the Nakdong River water though the wetland groundwater and Nakdong River water equally belonged to the Ca-HCO₃ type.

The mechanical characteristic of Lightweight Foamed Soil(LWFS) are investigated in this research. LWFS is composed of the in-suit soil, cement and foam to reduce the unit-weight and increase compressive strength. The unconfined compressive tests are carried out on the prepared specimens of LWFS with various soil types to investigate the relationship between compressive strength of LWFS and physical properties of soil. The result indicate that coefficient of gradation($C_g$) and liquid limit(LL) are more important factor affecting compressive strength than other physical properties of soil and coefficient of gradation($C_g$) and liquid limit(LL) can standard to determine the optical soil among the in-situ soils for LWFS.

오염토양의 현장정화에 있어서 지반 및 오염물질의 물성치는 정화에 소요되는 시간과 함께 매우 중요한 고려사항이다. Gabr 등(1996)은 연직배수재가 설치된 오염지반에서 시 공간적 변화에 따른 초기오염농도에 대한 오염농도비($C/C_0$)를 구하는 식을 유도하였다. 본 연구에서는 Gabr 등이 유도한 식의 전산모형 FLUSH1을 이용하여 오염지반 흙의 유효입경, 간극률, 형상계수, 밀도, 지반의 온도와 오염물질의 단위중량 및 점성계수가 오염정화에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위하여 시 공간적 변화에 따른 오염농도비($C/C_0$)를 분석 하였다. 분석결과 연직배수재가 설치된 오염지반에서 정화에 크게 영향을 미치는 인자는 오염지반 흙입자의 유효입경인 것으로 나타났으며, 그 다음으로 오염물질의 점성, 오염지반 흙의 간극율, 형상계수, 지반의 온도, 오염물질의 단위중량, 흙의 밀도 순으로 분석되었다. 오염지반 흙의 밀도는 오염정화에 미치는 영향이 아주 작은 것으로 나타났다.

Contamination of subsurface results in degradation of geomaterials (i.e., soils and rock mass), in the long run. This is mainly due to the presence of chemical and/or radiological materials in undesirable concentrations and at elevated temperatures. However, as contaminant-geomaterial interaction is an extremely slow and complex process, which primarily depends on their physical, chemical and mineralogical properties, it is quite difficult to study this interaction under laboratory or in situ conditions. In such a situation, accelerated physical modeling, using a geotechnical centrifuge, and finite element/difference based numerical modeling techniques are found to be quite useful. This paper presents details of various modeling techniques developed by the researchers at the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, Mumbai, India, for studying heat migration, flow and interaction (fate) of reactive and non-reactive contaminants in the geoenvironment, under saturated and unsaturated conditions. In addition, paper presents details of the technique that can be employed for determining susceptibility of a material to undergo physico-chemico-mineralogical alterations due to its interaction with contaminants.

Various fluorine-containing materials are used in electronic devices like LCD display panels and Li-ion batteries. The structural conformation of fluorine in fluorinated materials is an important contributing factor that influences the chemical and physical properties. The conformation can be changed by heat and stress during manufacture or use. Understanding the conformational changes is critical for understanding the performance and durability of electronic devices. Solid-state NMR spectroscopy could be widely used for the analysis of various fluorine-containing materials for electronic devices. However, conventional CPMAS probes cannot be used for in-situ analysis of fluorine-containing electronic devices like LCD panels and Li-ion batteries. In this paper, we show the design, construction, and optimization of a $^{19}F-^{13}C$ double-resonance solid-state NMR probe for a 400MHz wide-bore magnet with a flat square coil for in-situ analysis of fluorine-containing electronic devices without observing fluorine background signals. This custom-built probe does not show any fluorine background signals, and can have higher efficiency for lossy samples.

본 연구에서는 콘크리트 2차제품 제조시 기체상의 이산화탄소를 주입하는 In-situ 탄산화 기술의 적용 가능성 분석을 위해 이산화탄소 주입량에 따른 콘크리트 인터로킹 블록의 기초물성 및 미세구조 분석을 실시하였다. 안정적인 이산화탄소 주입을 위해 CO₂ 가스 주입용 콘크리트 혼합 설비를 구축하였으며, 이산화탄소 주입량을 시멘트량 대비 0, 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7 wt.%로 제어하였다. 기초물성 시험 결과, 이산화탄소 주입량이 0.3 %까지 증가할수록 기존 배합 대비 높은 강도 거동을 보였으며, 주입량 0.5 % 이후에는 기존 배합보다 낮은 강도를 보였으나 콘크리트 2차제품의 강도 기준(보차도용 콘크리트 인터로킹 블록)을 만족하는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 콘크리트 인터로킹 블록 제조시 이산화탄소 주입에 따른 CaCO₃ 결정 및 C-S-H 등의 수화물 생성이 촉진된 것으로 판단되었다. 따라서 배합중 이산화탄소를 주입하는 탄산화기술을 다양한 콘크리트 2차제품 제조 공정에 적용할 수 있는 가능성을 확인하였다.

After Kyoto protocol took effect, many countries are making efforts to reduce $CO_2$ one of effective which is geosequestration. But a percentage of geosequestration in total research budget is very small and the priority order of research also is receded in Korea. As one of efforts to activate the research on geosequestration in field of geophysics, we proposed the plan to build up a measurement system for rock physical properties monitoring during $CO_2$ injection which will function as original technology. The system consists of two part, one of which is a data acquisition system based on seismic and complex resistivity tomographic measurement and the other of which is a tri-axial compressive system to realize the in-situ condition. And also developments of various inversion algorithms are proposed to interpret data qualitatively such as a inversion algorithm for confined cylindrical boundary, a joint inversion algorithm and a 4-D inversion algorithm.
