It is very important to understand objectively the Qi variation induced by the reinforcing-reducing manipulation method in the therapy of acupuncture. The Qi variation in the meridian treated by O-Haeng Reinforcing-Reducing Manipulation Acupuncture Method and the recovery of Five Phase deviation were measured by choosing complex acupoints. By using O-Haeng Reinforcing-Reducing Manipulation Acupuncture Method, we increased or decreased the Qi of the phase which caused the unbalance state. We observed whether the Qi of the treated meridian can be increased or not and if the state of unbaIance can be recovered. To achieve the effect of reinforcing-reducing, we need a correct choice of treating method and a selection of a proper meridian in advance. We discovered that the effects of reinforcing-reducing by each manipulation method could be superposed each other, when two counteracting O-Haeng Reinforcing-Reducing Manipulation Acupuncture Method were treated at the left and the right side of human body. We found that the Qi variation of the traeted meridian, which was induced by O-Haeng Reinforcing-Reducing Manipulation Acupuncture Method, is lineary proportioned to the reduction of Five Phase deviation.

Objective : To establish a standard for discriminating between deficiency syndrome and excess syndrome and selecting reinforcing or reducing method. Methods :Deficiency syndrome and excess syndrome were divided into excess of pathogenic factor with sufficiency of vital energy syndrome, weakness of pathogenic factor with deficiency of vital energy syndrome and excess of pathogenic factor with deficiency of vital energy syndrome. Documentary survey was done for each case. Results : Excess of pathogenic factor with sufficiency of vital energy syndrome is an excess syndrome and a reducing method must be used. Weakness of pathogenic factor with deficiency of vital energy syndrome is a deficiency syndrome and a reinforcing method must be used. Excess of pathogenic factor with deficiency of vital energy syndrome is related to deficiency syndrome and a reinforcing method must mainly be used. Conclusions :Deficiency or sufficiency of vital energy is the standard for discriminating between deficiency syndrome and excess syndrome and selecting a reinforcing or reducing method.

This study investigated the fundamental properties and shrinkage properties of high performance concrete with water/binder ratio of 0, 30 and with combination of expansive additive and shrinkage reducing agent. According to the results, the fluidity of high performance concrete showed lower the using method in combination with expansive additive and shrinkage reducing agent than the separately using method of that, so the amount of superplasticizer increased when the adding ratio of expansive additive and shrinkage reducing agent increased. However the air content of concrete increased when used in combination with expansive additive and shrinkage reducing agent, so the amount of AE agent decreased. The compressive strength showed the highest at 5% of expansive additive, and decreased with an increase of the amount of shrinkage reducing agent. Furthermore, in order to reduce the shrinkage of high performance concrete, it was found that the using method in combination with expansive additive and shrinkage reducing agent was more effective than separately using method of that. Autogenous shrinkage was predicted using JCI model. Because JCI model is unable to consider the effect of EA and SRA, correction factor should be added to enhance the accuracy.

The autoclave method and the traditional cooking method were compared for nutrients(especially, minerals), color difference, viscosity, reduction of sugar and amino nitrogen content of brown stock. The autoclave cooking method is better than the traditional cooking method for retaining protein and amino nitrogen contents, as well as for reducing sugar content. Also, reducing sugar content increased by the autoclave cooking method. Since the color of brown sauce was related with the reducing sugar content, the autoclave cooking method was more effective than the traditional cooking method for the color development of brown stock. Since the autoclave method can reduce the cooking time without a loss of quality in brown stock, the autoclave method is a viable alternative to the traditional method of preparing brown stock.

Since the color of brown sauce is related with reducing sugar content, the autoclave cooking method is more effective than the traditional cooking method for the color of brown sauce. Since the autoclave method can reduce the cooking time without the loss of quality in brown stock, the traditional method can be substituted by this new method.

This study is intended to investigate the properties of concrete using AE Water Reducing Agent of Early-Strength Type. According to the results, as for the replacing method of mineral admixture, setting time is shortened faster in order of replacement for fine aggregate, combination and replacement for cement, and when AE Water Reducing Agent of Early-Strength Type is used, it is shortened by about 4 hours, compared with normal AE Water Reducing Agent Compressive strength is lower in the case of replacement for fine aggregate, but higher in the other case than that of plain concrete. And When AE Water Reducing Agent of Early-Strength Type is used, early compressive strength is very high in comparison to normal AE Water Reducing Agent. Early strength development is very favorable by the use of AE Water Reducing Agent of Early-Strength Type regardless of the replacing method of mineral admixture at $20^{\circ}C$, but at $l0^{\circ}C$, it is effective for Early strength development that W/B is lowered to below 45%, BS of 20% is replaced for fine aggregate, and AE Water Reducing Agent of Early-Strength Type is used.

The reinforcement method for reducing fever prescribe sweet and warm drugs for reinforcing the middle heater and raising Yang(陽) and sweet and cold drugs for purging the pathogenic fire. Bojung-ikgitang(補中益氣湯) is representative prescription based on the reinforcement method for reducing fever. Therefore it is ought to be regarded as prescription for syndromes to show the impairment of Gi(氣), blood, fluids, and humors for pathogenic fire.

The noise reducing devices installed on the noise barrier have been developed in many shapes and ways to reduce noise around road traffic areas. In this study, test and estimation method for the noise reducing device witch installed on the top of a noise barrier was suggested. For this, the authors have considered sound power flow around the device and sound pressure levels for the far field area. To estimate the area effect behind the barrier, area average of noise pressure level difference divided by two area, upper and bellow the sight-line. Comparing the attenuation difference of these areas, the tendency of noise reduction effect was studied according to type of noise reducing devices. Compared with noise shielding efficiency of the devices that using equivalent height of a simple barrier calculated by the SoundPlan, the commercial environment noise simulation software.

The traditional ripening method of clay was analyzed. An advanced refining method of clay using enrichment cultures of iron r reducing bacteria was developed. After the traditional ripening, the whiteness of the clay was increased due to removal of | iron impurities by inhabitant dissilmaltien with iron reducing bacteria. Other characteristics of the refined clay such as v viscosity, plasticity, and strength were also improved by iron reducing bacteria. An advanced method of clay refinement with a anaerobic enrichment cultivation of iron reducing bacteria supplemented with an extra carbon source such as glucose was s suggested. When the clay was treated by the advanced method. the refinement time could be reduced to 1/6 of that r required by the traditional method. The physical properties of the refined clay by the advanced method were better than t those of the traditionally refined clay.
