  • The purposes of this study were to investigate the symptoms, diseases and deaths of residents living near the municipal solid waste landfill site, and to compare the relative risk ratio of their adverse health effects with control group. In self-evaluation, the scores were especially severe lowest in residents of v2 and v3 villages(which were located about 500 m toward under the landfill site) such as 32.2 and 16.7 for village-environment, 24.8 and 16.0 for management of landfill site, and 23.5 and 16.5 for confidence of environmental policy, respectively. On symptoms, relative risk ratios were also highest as 3.53 and 3.55 for breathing difficulty, and 3.36 and 3.00 for respiratory symptom in v2 and v3 villages, respectively. On morbidity, they were slightly high as much as 1.39 and 1.24 in v5 and v2 villages, respectively. On mortality, relative risk ratios were $1.15{\sim}2.46$ in experimental villages. They were especially high as much as 2.46 in v3 village where located near under the landfill site, and also 2.14 in v5 village where located at area affected with the landfill site, but near the sea. The rate of cancer causing death was average 35.2% of total deaths. It was very highest as much as 61.1 % in v2 village, where was closely located near under the landfill site. Cancers causing death in this village were lung cancer(3 cases), larynx cancer(2 cases), stomach cancer(2 cases), pancreatic cancer(1 case), thryoid cancer(1 case), leukemia(1 case) and other(1 case). Our data, although based on limited number of cases and geographical coverage, suggest that residents living near landfill site have the increasing relative risks of various symptoms and mortality causing cancer. No causal mechanisms are available to explain these findings. But the possibility of a causal association between the increased adverse health effects and the municipal solid waste landfill site cannot be fully excluded.

  • 최근 지진 발생 사례들에서는 암반보다는 대부분 토사 퇴적층으로 구성된 부지에서의 심각한 지진 피해를 보여주고 있다. 이는 지진지반 운동의 증폭을 야기하는 부지 효과가 기반암 위 토사의 공간적 분포 및 동적 특성에 주로 관련되어 있기 때문이다. 본 연구에서는 지반 자료에 관한 통합적 GIS 기반의 정보 시스템을 국내 대표적 대도시 지역인 서울에서의 지진 운동에 대한 지역적 종합 대책 수립의 일환으로 구축하였다. 서울 지역에 대한 GIS 기반 지반 정보 시스템을 구축하기 위하여, 연구 대상 영역 및 인근에 대한 기존 지반 조사 자료의 수집이 이루어 졌고 지표 지반-지식 자료의 확보를 위한 부지 방문 조사가 추가적으로 수행되었다. 관심 대상 영역의 부지 효과 평가를 위한 지반 정보 시스템의 실질적 적용 목적으로, 지반지진공학적 변수인 기반암 심도 및 부지 주기에 관한 지진재해 구역 지도를 작성하고 지진 유발 재해 예측을 위한 지역적 종합 대책으로 제시하였다. 또한, 서울 지역 내 임의 부지 및 하위 행정 단위에서의 내진 설계 및 내진 성능 평가를 위한 부지 증폭계수의 결정 수단으로 부지 분류의 지진재해 구역화를 수행하였다. 본 연구에서 수행된 서울 지역에서의 지진재해 구역화 사례 연구로부터 GIS 기반의 지반 정보 시스템의 대도시에 대한 지진재해의 지역적 예측 뿐만 아니라 지진재해 저감을 위한 의사 결정 지원에서의 활용가능성을 확인하였다.

  • By substituting Cd$\^$2+/ into both A-site and B-site in PNN-PZ-PT ternary perovskite material, it is possible to determine the effects of the substitution site of Cd$\^$2+/ on sintering behavior. Sintering was performed in the temperature range from 1000$^{\circ}C$ to 1300$^{\circ}C$. The substitution site of Cd$\^$2+/ is identified by XPS spectra. Although Cd$\^$2+/ is substituted into both A-site and B-site in PNN-PZ-PT, Cd$\^$2+/ prefers A-site to B-site. The density is influenced by substitution site of Cd$\^$2+/. If Cd$\^$2+/ replaces Pv$\^$2+/, weight gain is observed during sinterig process. On the contrary, if Cd$\^$2+/ replaces Ni$\^$2+/, weight loss is promoted during sintering. From these weight changes, it is believed that Cd$\^$2+/ changes the bonding strength between B-site cation and oxygen of octahedron in perovskite structure. The changes of lattice parameters as a function of Cd$\^$2+/ content were consistent with those of the bonding strength. The densities of A-site-doped compositions were higher than those of B-site-doped composition.

  • This study was carried out to estimate the effect of forest fire on physical and chemical properties of soil The forest fire was in April 1995 at Kongju of Chungnam. Soil samples were collected at 0~5cm, 5~10cm, and 10~20cm soil depths in September 1998 from the burned and unburned sites. Soil organic matter concentrations at 0~5cm and 5~10cm soil depths were significantly greater in unburned site than in burned site. Soil concentrations were greater in unburned site than in burned site at all soil depths. Cation exchange capacity was significantly higher in unburned site than in burned site at 0~5cm soil depth. There were no differences in available soil P, exchangeable soil K, Ca, and Mg, and pH of soil between burned and unburned sites. Soil water content at 0~5cm soil depth was significantly greater in unburned site than in burned site. Bulk density at 0~5cm soil depth was significantly higher in burned site than in unburned site. Forest fire had an adverse effect on physical and chemical properties of soil in this study, Burning of vegetation and forest 리oor organic matter in burned site may reduce organic matter supply to soil and increase soil erosion. Consequently, forest fire may have adverse influence on long-term site productivity.

  • In this paper the theoretical analysis of the site attenuation was made on the concept of mutual impedance of antennas and the cause of characteristic hump in the site attenuation curve below 80 MHz is explained. The deviation between the FCC site attenuatios and the experimental results of an ideal open area test site at low frequencies(below 80MHz) was found to be the mutual coupling effects of the antennas under the FCC's measurement conditions. It seems desirable that the site attenuations curve of FCC document be revicused to the theoretical curves presented in this paper is long as the FCC's measurement conditions are to the applied.

  • Geotechnical sites in urban areas may have embedded structures such as utility lines and underground concrete structures, which cause difficulties in site investigation. This study is a preliminary research to establish knowledge base for developing an optimal technique for site investigation in urban areas. Surface-wave method and resistivity survey, which are frequently adopted for non-destructive site-investigation for geotechnical sites, were investigated to characterize effects of adjacent structures. In case of surface wave method, patterns of wave propagation were investigated for typical sets of multi-layered geotechnical profiles by numerical simulation based on forward modeling theory and field experiments for small-size model tests and real-scale tests in the field. In case of resistivity survey, 3-D finite element analyses and field tests were performed to investigate effects of adjacent concrete structures. These theoretical and experimental researches for surface-wave method and resistivity survey resulted in establishing physical criteria to cause interference of adjacent structures in site investigation at urban areas.

  • Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of functional massage and stretching, applied to the elbow and shoulder joints, on pain, tenderness threshold, and grip strength. Methods: A total of 29 individuals were assigned to a single site (n=15) or multiple sites (n=14). Pain measured through the visual analogue scale (VAS), tenderness threshold (TTH), and grip strength (GI) were measured before and four weeks after the intervention. Results: After four weeks of treatment, visual analogue scale significantly decreased in both groups (p<.05), and the tenderness threshold and grip strength significantly increased in both groups (p<.05). There was also a significant difference between the two groups (p<.05). Conclusion: The reduction of visual analogue scale and the increase in the tenderness threshold and grip strength were more significant in the multi-site treatment group than in the single-site treatment group.

  • Ground subsidence in urban areas due to excessive development and degraded underground facilities is a serious problem. Geophysical surveys have been conducted to estimate the distribution and scale of cavities and subsidence. In this study, electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) was performed near an area of road subsidence in an urban area. The subsidence arose due to groundwater leakage that carried soil into a neighboring excavation site. The ERT survey line was located between the main subsidence area and an excavation site. Because ERT data are affected by rapid topographic changes and surrounding structures, the influence of the excavation site on the data was analyzed through field-scale numerical modeling. The effect of an excavation should be considered when interpreting ERT data because it can lead to wrong anomalous results. A method for performing 2D inversion after correcting resistivity data for the effect of the excavation site was proposed. This method was initially tested using a field-scale numerical model that included the excavation site and subsurface anomaly, which was a loosened zone, and was then applied to field data. In addition, ERT data were interpreted using an existing in-house 3D algorithm, which considered the effect of excavation sites. The inversion results demonstrated that conductive anomalies in the loosened zone were greater compared to the inversion that did not consider the effects of excavation.

  • The effects of low impact development (LID) techniques, such as green roofs and porous pavements, on the runoff and pollutant load from an apartment complex were simulated using the Site Evaluation Tool (SET). The study site was the Olympic Village, a preexisting apartment complex in Seoul, South Korea, which has a high percentage of impervious surfaces (approximately 72% of the total area). Using the SET, the effects of replacing parking lots, sidewalks and driveways (37.5% of the total area) having porous pavements and rooftops (14.5% of the total area) with green roofs were simulated. The simulation results indicated that LID techniques reduced the surface runoff, and peak flow and pollutant load, and increased the evapotranspiration and soil infiltration of precipitation. Per unit area, the green roofs were better than the porous pavements at reducing the surface runoff and pollutant loads, while the porous pavements were better than green roofs at enhancing the infiltration to soil. This study showed that LID methods can be useful for urban stormwater management and that the SET is a useful tool for evaluating the effects of LID on urban hydrology and pollutant loads from various land covers.
