The purpose of this exploratory study was to investigate the influence of pre-service science teachers' selection of earth science I, II in the high school and their college major on their self-perceived attitude and academic achievement in general earth science lecture at university. The participants in the study were 273 who enrolled in the division of science education, college of education and took the general earth science lecture from 2012 to 2015. The data was analyzed with two-way ANOVA by using SPSS 23.0. The results indicated that there was no significant difference of students' attitude and examination difficulty in general earth science lecture between earth science major and other subject major. However, students who took earth science I and/or II in high school showed positive attitude toward the lecture and higher achievement scores than students who didn't take earth science I, II in their high school. The results of the study imply that it is essential to consider students' attitude toward science and achievement in pre-service science teacher education.

Vernacular perspectives had been ignored in the movement of modern architecture. This study's purpose was to review vernacular perspectives and to identify vernacular characteristics of earth architecture. Six representative contemporary earth architects were selected, and then their works were analyzed. Themes of vernacular architecture based of Frampton's critical regionalism were emerged. Findings were as following: 1) constructed by considering the local climate and the region's natural characteristics, 2) constructed with local materials seeking integration of structure and finishing work, 3) having tectonic form included regional characteristics, 4) creating space of various senses and expression of texture through earth modeling, 5) presenting homogeneity of sense of place between site and architecture, and 6) pursuing ecological and sustainable architecture. These characteristics of contemporary earth architecture reflect the vernacular architecture inherited continually in architectural history. Therefore, contemporary earth architecture has been in line with contemporary architecture aiming for sustainability.

In 22.9kV-Y overhead lines, if there is an earth fault, high fault current causes surge type over-voltages around this place. There are generally two types of earth faults. One is an earth fault which occurs when a voltage line falls to earth line. The other occurs when a voltage line directly falls to the earth. This study presents an analysis method on the earth fault.

The purpose of this study is to explore ways to improve developing exam questions for Earth science education by analyzing exam trend of Earth science education in the secondary-school teacher employment test (TET, hereafter). For this purpose, we developed an analysis framework to analyze items of Earth science education in the secondary-school TET, and this analysis framework covers required courses for 'theory of Earth science education' of 'Earth science teaching certificate courses'. The analysis framework consists of big categories, assessment domains, and assessment components. We divided system changes in secondary-school TET into 4 types, and analyzed exams of 2014-2018 school year, which is the existing exam system. According to the results, 22-24 points out of 80 have been allotted to Earth science education. Among assessment domains, Earth science Teaching & Learning domain has taken the highest percentage of scores and item numbers, followed by Earth science inquiry, history & philosophy of science, etc. For each domain, we analyzed exam tendencies in detail. Based the results, we suggested ways to improve developing exam questions for Earth science education in the secondary-school TET, and ways to improve curriculum for Earth science education in the teacher education program.

Earth tube system can be installed in many ways. However, performance data on earth tube system is still insufficient. Therefore, in this study seven design parameters of earth tube systems were chosen such as underground earth tube length, depth, tube thermal conductivity, thickness, radius, soil conditions, and fan type. And the change effects in the values of the seven parameters on earth tube exit temperatures and heat transfer rate were examined through Energyplus simulations.

This paper attempts to study the evolution of the Solar System including the earth through various existing hypotheses and the occurrence of earthquakes on the earth. From the analysis of the various theories it can be inferred that the Mystery regarding evolution of Solar System is a complex problem which requires continuos research. The occurrence of the earthquake is also affected by the earth's rotation, which produces Centrifugal Force, which together with convection current causes plate displacement resulting in earthquakes. The extent of displacement varies with the size and density of the plates.

Presengly reinforced earth is widely utilized for earth structure increasingly not only domestic but also in many foreign countries because of its rapidity of construction and economic merits. The study on the reinforced earth has been actively carried out and enlarged in the theoretical aspect. But it has many problems to the application of the field. In this study large scale Pull-out Test was used to analyze reinforced earthe behavior considering deformation character of reinforced earth under the similar condition to the field.

In this study, a algorithm to estimate Equivalent earth resistivity and Earth parameter using Artificial Neural Network(ANN) was proposed. Structures of the soil are grouped by using SOM algorithm before estimation. Earth parameter and Equivalent earth resistivity are obtained by using BP algorithm. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm was verified. In the case study. afterwards, the algorithm proposed in this study will be used in more applications and gained more reliability.

Water must be readily available to support all lives life and to create our earth. At first thought, It may seem that water is always available, since the earth is literally surrounded by water, so called water planet. The manner in which water circulates between earth and atmosphere determines where ample water supplies can be found and used for all organisms. If no forces except gravity were at work, the earth's water would settle in to the ocean basins and remain there.

Since 1984, block-type reinforced earth wall with geogrid reinforcement has been widely used for retaining wall applications till now in Korea. The use of geogrid as a reinforcement in the reinforced earth wall is steadily increased in an amount over $6,500,000m^2$ in a year. However, still need exists that some problems in design and construction practices should be made to review. Therefore, this paper reviewed current state and development items of geosynthetics-reinforced earth wall technology on design and construction point of view.
