Diffraction loss occurs when the propagation path is obstructed by mountains and hills between a base station antenna and a moving vehicle antenna in mobile-radio communication. In this paper an approximate mathematical model using Fresnel-Kirchhoff diffraction theory is considered to predict propogation attenuation by natural obstacles with lateral profiles having general shapes. Field tests are conducted using helical and crossed drooping dipole antenna at 820 MHz. The theoretical analysis used in estimating the effects of hills agrees reasonably with experimental data. The results seem to be useful for estimating the level of received power, the minimum allowable input power, the optimum site of base station and consequently, planning terrestrial microwave links.

In this study, the engineering characteristics of soil-bentonite mixed liner are investigated using the laboratory hydraulic conductivity and strength tests. The soil used for the liner is clayey silt in the site and the weathered granitic soil located near the waste landfill studied. Mixing ratio of the bentonite which satisfies the requirement of hydraulic conductivity is determined and the optimum mixing ratio of betonite is recommended for the landfill. After the mixed liner is constructed, the block samples of the constructed liner are obtained and the properties of interest satisfy the requirements of the liner of the landfill.

Due to continuous difficulty of human power supply, it is necessary to develop an equipment which is good to saving cost and time at a construction site. A quick pipe coupling method is the kind of mechanical joint system using split-sleeve and sealing-pad at pipe groove without welding. In hence, it provides restrained pipe joint which is simple, safe, and dependable without environmental pollutions. It is more useful scheme than the other ones. The purpose of this study is to find out the main design factors and the optimum shape of split-sleeve. The stress analyses were carried out under various shapes of pipe groove configuration, materials and internal pressures with a commercial software, ANSYS workbench which uses FEM(finite element method). Results are graphically depicted with various parameters.

Recently, by the lack of fill material, the dredg and fill(hydraulic fill) method is commonly used in reclamation projects. Hydraulic fill method dredges the soil and send it with water through the transportation pipe to the site. The intial state of the hydraulic fill material is accordingly the mixture of water and soil skeleton which settles with time forming a new soil layer. The properties of new soil layer is governed the size of the soil skeleton, the flow velocity of mixing water, salt concentration, the distance from the discharge pipe outlet, and other dredging conditions when settling process occur. In this study, the effects of gradation of derdged soil on the deposition properties (with emphasis on the optimum spacing of the discharge pipes) was investigated by field test. It was found that the soft fine graind soil was forme at 350m from the discharge pipe outlet when the dredged material was classified as CL, while the soft fine grained soil was not formed even at the distance farther than 400m from the diacharge pipe outlet when the dredged material was classified as SM.

The hydrodesulfurization (HDS) of dibenzothiophene (DBT) were performed simultaneously over CoPtMo/LaY catalyst under high H$_{2}$ pressure. The structure and physical properties of this catalyst were characterized using XRD, IR and surface area analyzer. The origin of acid site was mainly Bronsted. The structures of impregnated molybdenum and platinum were deactivated by DBT to MoS$_{2}$ and PtS, respectively. The activities of the HDS and the hydrocracking increased with increasing temperature and pressure. They decreased with increasing the DBT mole ratio(DBT/n-heptane). They remained constant with increasing the H$_{2}$/H.C. mole ratio. With increasing pressure and DBT mole ratio, the products of secondary cracking increased. To perform simultaneous HDS and hydrocracking effectively, the optimum condition were 500.deg.C, 4MPa.

Since in-core flux thimble tube wear the due to flow-induced vibration could degrade the integrity of nuclear reactor, the effective detection and interpretation of the wear is important. In order to establish an inspection technique for thimble tubes, an eddy current experiment was performed to determine the optimum test frequency, defect sensitivity and evaluation accuracy. Eddy current probes were designed and fabricated with a theory. Specimens with artificial defects were fabricated using electro discharge machining method. The results from inspection technique developed and on-site inspection showed good applicability.

The objective of this study is to determine the ignition feasibility of a single shot, air-assisted gasoline fuel injector operated in a constant volume combustion chamber under atmospheric condition. A number of parameters has been selected for this experiments, such as dwelling time, spark gap position(r,z), spark electrode geometry, supplied air and fuel masses and spray cone deflector angle. On-site visual inspection of the instantaneous flame glow was chosen as one way to judge the successful ignition. In addition, chamber pressure and occasional photography were mobilized as for data recording. It was clearly observed that there was an entrainment air-fuel mixture toward spray axis from the spray formation and its development later on. The optimum ignition conditions were found for those parameters given above.

The activity of photosystem II in isolated chloroplast form the leaves of Sedum sarmentosum was measured. The photoreduction rate of DCPIP by photosystem II showed the circadian rhythm with a peak at near midday sample for a continuing fine day and at near afternoon between nidday and sunset sample for a continuing cloudy day in summer. The optimum light intensity of photoreduction by photosystem II in the chloroplast preparation was about 5~9$\times$$10^4$ lux. The saturated light intensity was over 9$\times$$10^1$lux. Photosystem II activity was inhibited by even the lowest concentration of lead. When Pi and ATP of the same concentration as Pb were added to the reaction mixture containing Tris buffer lacking of Pi prior to Pb incubation, photosystem II activity was protected from Pb-inhibiting effect by the pretreament of Pi and ATP. It was assumed that Pb inhibiiton was probably due to one, P-depriving by the precipitates of $Pb_3$ $($Pb_4$)_2$ in the reaction mixture and the other, partially Pb-combing with Pi groups of the active site of photosystem II.

This study was carried out to evaluate the performance of a inflow controller for the control of combined sewer overflows (CSOs). Because of the inflow controller could be adjusted manually by predicting the maximum amount of peak flow, the mechanical adjustment of this controller was higher than the existing fixed-type controller in field application. Standardizing the relationship between the flow and the clearance and angle of an inlet cover plate on the inflow conditions can selected to the optimum conditions for the on-site. It was concluded that BOD pollutant loading at the region in which inflow controller was installed had shown the removal efficiency rate of 42%.

The present study has an objetive to define the characteristic of the Porous Concrete to be used in the resistant layers of the pavement. Up to the moment there is no material which is capable which is capable of satisfying the mechanical resistances and drainability, two characterstics which interves, and a detailled study has been carried out on the same order to obtain the porous concrete of this study. such as: Mode and time of compaction. type of cement, water/cement ratio, maxium size of aggregates, sieve test. incorporation of some additives and additions etc., among them emphasizing the use of a method of compaction vibro-compression in the laboratory with which an optimum compacting was reached, and can be obtanied on the site with a spreader rated with double tamper. With this porous concrete for this study whose dominating characteristics is the drainability jointly with a high mechanical resistance. a safe and silence firm is obtained, with can be a great diffusion in the near future, for its application on the pavements. Based on these works carried out, there was the first experience in the world of field application with 25cm of resistance layer of Porous Concrete Pavement in Salamanca, Spain.
