Subsurface cavities in the asphalt pavement which can cause road depression and cave-in accidents influence on the safety of pedestrians and vehicle drivers in the urban area. The existence of subsurface cavity can increase the tensile strain at the bottom of asphalt layer which is an indicator of fatigue cracking potential, and leads to the weakening of the pavement structural capacity. In this study, the finite element (FE) analysis was conducted to examine the relationship between the critical pavement responses and influencing factors, such as cavity depth and size, asphalt layer thickness, and asphalt concrete modulus. The surface deflections and tensile strains calculated from the ABAQUS FE program were compared to those from ILLIPAVE. It is found from this comparison that there are a good relationship between two analysis results. A three dimensional finite element model which is essential to simulate the hexahedral cavity were used to generate the synthetic database of critical pavement responses. To validate the developed model, the deflection data obtained from field Falling Weight Deflectometer (FWD) testing in four different locations were compared to FE deflections. It is found that the center deflections obtained from the FWD testing and FE analysis are similar to each other with an error values of 2.7, 4.4, 5.5, and 11.9 % respectively. The FE model developed in this study seems to be acceptable in simulating actual field cavity condition. On the basis of the data in the database, various analyses were conducted to estimate the effect of influencing factors on the critical pavement responses. It was found that the tensile strain at the bottom of asphalt layer is affected by all the factors but the most affected by the cavity depth and asphalt concrete modulus. Further studies are recommended to properly account for the effect of cavity’s geometry to pavement response.

Until now, 12 subspeceis of Eucarabus (Parhomopterus) sternbergi has been recorded in South Korea and some were described by foreign entomologist without comparative examination. In addition, most of them were not reviewed since the original description. Therefore, based on this study, all subspecies of this group in South Korea were revised taxonomically, and a new subspecific key was provided. As a result, 8 subspecies of Eucarabus (Parhomopterus) sternbergi were confirmed in South Korea and their new synonyms are as follows: Eucarabus (Parhomopterus) sternbergi sternbergi (Roeschke, 1898) = E. (P.) s. gimhwa (Rapuzzi, 2015); E. (P.) s. honamensis (Kwon et Lee, 1984) = E. (P.) s. jindoensis (Rapuzzi, 2015) = E. (P.) s. goheungicus (Rapuzzi, 2015); E. (P.) s. schnelli (Lassalle, 1999) = E. (P.) s. deogyusan (Rapuzzi, 2015).

Carabidae is one of the largest family in Coleoptera, approximately as a 90% of Adephaga. Up to now, 40,000 species of 33 subfamilies are known worldwide. Therefore, they have been adapting to a variety of environments. This family belong to the superfamily Caraboidea of suborder Adephaga. Among them, family Trachypachidae is very similar to family Carabidae and family Rysodidae sometimes has been treated as a subfamily of this. In addition, from the past to the present, the classification of family Carabidae has been complicated in the states of higher taxa by authors etc. Recently, the taxonomic studies upgraded according the advanced natural science, genetic or phylogenetic methods and development of new methods etc. Nevertheless, their classification is still mainly based on the external morphology and the genital characters. Multiple application of these classification methods, including genetic analysis, endophallus inflation and microscopic observation etc., are being help to solve the taxonomic problems of family Carabidae.

This study was conducted to observe the fermentative quality and anthocyanin content in whole crop colored barley silage during storage periods and anthocyanin stability in in vitro ruminal fluid. Silages of colored barley cultivar “Boanchalbori” and normal barley cultivar “Yuyeonbori” were stored during 0, 2, 4, 6, and 12 months. The in vitro ruminal fluid was fermented for 0, 6, 12, 24, and 48 hrs. For the feed value, crude protein of colored barley silage was slightly increased in the silage compared to that of normal barley silage, and being increased up to 2 months after ensiling and thereafter maintained at the similar level. Neutral detergent fiber (NDF) and acid detergent fiber (ADF) contents of both the barley significantly increased by prolonged storage of 2 months (p<0.05), but they were maintained at the constant level after 2 months of storing silage. Whereas TDN (total digestible nutrients) contents of them were decreased by the prolonged storage of 2 months (p<0.05), then maintained at the constant levels. The fermentative quality and pH values in both the barley silages were slightly decreased during the storage time. Lactic acid and acetic acid contents were increased during prolonged storage period, but not significantly different among treatments. Butyric acid was not detected. In the colored barley silage, pH value showed slightly lower compared to that of the normal barley silage but not significant, and lactic acid content was significantly higher than the normal barley silage (p<0.05). The total anthocyanin content in the whole crop colored barley silage decreased to 42% after 2 months of ensilage, however maintained at the constant level until 12 months of ensilage. In the case of anthocyanin stability on in vitro ruminal fluid digestion, the pH value of the ruminal fluid was slightly lower at 6, 12, 24, 48h incubation time and the content of anthocyanin was at similar levels. These results indicated that the colored barley showed higher fermentation quality, and total anthocyanin content was maintained stable at 42% level of the first value in storing silage. As the anthocyanin had higher stability in the ruminal fluid, the colored barley has a potential as functional feeds for Ruminants.

Cambodia covers an area of 181,035 sq km among them, forests cover 53 percent. As a tropical monsoon climate, average annual rainfall is about 1,400 mm(about 55 in) on the central plain and increases to as much as 3,800 mm (150 in) in the mountains and along the coast. The average annual temperature is about 27°C (about 80°F). There are many wildlife diversity in Cambodia, but regulated or unregulated logging and mining have diminished the country's wildlife rapidly. This expedition was conducted three times in 2009 (7.2-7.11, 10.16-22, 12.25-12.30). Central Cadamon Protected Forest (N 11° 41' 13" E 103° 26' 31.3") and Seima Biodiversity Conservation Area (N 12° 08' 20.8", E 106° 55' 2.7") were main area surveyed by pitfall trap, light trap and sweeping etc. As the result, totally 611 individuals of 11 families in Coleoptera was collected, among them Gonocephalumspecies of Tenebrionidae was highest number and species in Melonthidae, Chrysomelidae and Dynastidae etc., were collected, specially kind of Hydrophilidae species from wetland was surved in the expedition.

본 연구에서는 poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC)가지형 공중합체 전해질과 헤테로폴리산(HPA)을 이용하여 유무기 합성 전해질막을 제조하였다. poly(vinyl chloride)-g-poly(styrene sulfonic acid) (PVC-g-PSSA)는 PVC의 이차 염소의 직접적인 개시를 이용한 atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP)로 합성하였다. 이때, HPA 나노입자는 수소 결합을 통해 PVC-g-PSSA 가지형 공중합체와 결합하는 것을 FT-IR spectroscopy를 통하여 확인하였다. 전해질막의 수소이온 전도도는 HPA의 질량 분율이 0.3이 될 때까지 상온에서 0.049에서 0.068 S/cm로 증가하였다. 이것은 HPA 나노입자 고유의 전도도와 가지형 공중합체가 가지고 있는 술폰산의 강화된 산도 때문이라고 추정된다. 합습률은 HPA의 질량 분율이 0.45까지 증가할수록 130에서 84%로 감소하였다. 이것은 HPA나노입자와 고분자 메트릭스 사이의 수소 결합의 상호작용 때문에 물을 흡수하는 site의 수가 감소한 결과라고 볼 수 있다. 열중량 분석결과 HPA의 농도가 증가할수록 전해질막의 열적 안정성이 강화된다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

우라늄 변환시설 가동 중 발생하여 라군(lagoon)에 저장중인 방사성 슬러지 폐기물에 대한 처리는 시설 해체과정에서 매우 중요한 업무 중 하나이다. 슬러지 구성성분 중 다량을 차지하는 질산암모늄의 폭발 위험성 등으로 인해 미생물을 이용한 질산염의 분해는 질산염을 안정적으로 처리할 수 있는 효과적인 방법이라 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 라군 슬러지의 약 60 wt%를 차지하는 질산염을 혐기성 균주의 하나인 Pseudomonas halodenidificans를 이용하여 탈질하기위한 공정 변수에 대한 영향을 평가하였다. 온도, 질산염 농도, 전자공여체의 영향, C/N 비율, 초기 접종하는 균주의 비율, pH등의 공정변수에 대하여 실험한 이번 결과는 향후 연속식 공정 설계를 위한 기초 자료로 사용될 것이다.

우라늄 변환시설의 라군 슬러지에 함유된 질산염의 안정적 처리를 위해 물 첨가 용해를 실시한 뒤, 여과 케이크의 안정화 특성에 대하여 알아보았다. 물 용해에 의해 대부분의 질산염은 고농도 질산염 용액으로 제거되었으므로, 여과 케이크의 열분해는 에서 하나의 단계로 수행하였다. Muffle furnace를 이용하여 에서 5시간동안 여과 케이크의 열분해를 실시한 결과 라군 1 슬러지에 포함된 U은 의 열분해와 함께 의 형태로 안정화 되었다. 라군 2 열분해 잔류물의 경우에는 열분해 시 생성된 CaO가 냉각과정에서 수분과 반응하여 로 전환되는 것을 TG/DTA 분석과 XRD 분석을 통해 확인할 수 있었지만, 처분장에서 대기중 노출이나 지하수의 침출 등에는 안정한 화합물로 알려져 있으므로, 특별한 첨가제의 첨가 없이 단순 열분해 후 처분이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

This paper aims to investigate Korean advanced L2 English learners’ strategies for ellipsis resolution during sentence processing. Ellipsis resolution is known to involve several stages of information processing from the initial step of detecting an ellipsis-licensing element by the parser to the final stage of integrating the ellipsis site with the information retrieved from the antecedent of the ellipsis site. In examining these steps, we have manipulated three factors: (i) TP vs. VP-ellipsis; (ii) two types of discourse coherence relations (resemblance(-contrast) vs. cause-effect relations); (iii) voice match vs. mismatch. We found through the ERP recordings that voice mismatch in TP ellipsis elicited N400, followed by P600, irrespective of discourse coherence relations. In contrast, voice mismatch in VP-ellipsis registered N400 only in resemblance(-contrast) relation, but not in cause-effect relation. These findings lead us to conclude that Korean advanced L2 learners of English seem to undergo the full sequence of processing stages required for ellipsis resolution.

This paper has two goals. First, it aims to carefully examine whether a bi-clausal (movement) approach to -yo attachment in Korean Right Dislocation (RD) constructions is tenable. Yim (2013) argues that -yo marking on an RD-ed element lends support to what is called the 'bi-clausal' approach to RD in Korean. We present an issue and data that solicit reconsideration of Yim's view on the syntax of -yo attachment. In particular, the bi-clausal approach endorsed by Yim is shown to have difficulty capturing two types of coordinate structure, namely interwoven dependency and additive coordination. Second, we demonstrate that the availability of these two types of otherwise puzzling coordination in the RD construction involving -yo marking can be captured under a 'mono-clausal' approach, in conjunction with M-K Park's (2009) midway conjunction analysis, where External Remerge, originally suggested by de Vries (2009), is assumed to play a crucial role in building coordinate structure at issue.

We observed the osteological development of larval and juvenile red spotted grouper (Epinephelus akaara) in order to generate data for the assessment of skeletal deformities and to inform phylogenetic systematics research. Larvae and juveniles were obtained from a aquafarm in Muan-gun, Jeolla-namdo Province, Korea. The average water temperature at the time of breeding was 23.0°C and average water salinity was 33.0 psu. Freshly hatched fish larvae had not undergone any ossification, but ossification of the parasphenoid bone, which forms the base of the cranium, occurred as the juveniles reached an average body length (BL) of 2.49 mm. At the same time, ossification of the preopercle and opercle occurred in the operculum, and ossification of the maxilla, which forms the upper jaw, and the dentary bones, which form the lower jaw, began. In addition, ossification of the vertebra occurred by formation of 7 vertebral centra and the neural spine in the abdominal vertebra. When the juveniles reached an average (BL) of 5.22 mm, ossification of the nasal, lateral ethmoid, and alisphenoid bones occurred in the cranium; ossification of the endopterygoid and metapterygoid bones began in the palatine region; and ossification of the hypohyal and interhyal bones occurred in the hyoid arch. At an average (BL) of 20.9 mm, ossification of the basisphenoid bone in the cranium and the suborbital bone in the orbital region occurred. Ossification of the vertebra then occurred by the formation of long pairs of ribs from the third to the ninth abdominal vertebrae, completing osteological development.

This study was conducted in order to examine the egg development in red spotted grouper, Epinephelus akaara and the morphological development of its larvae and juveniles, and to obtain data for taxonomic research. This study was conducted in June 2013, and 50 male and female fish were used for the study. One hundred μg/kg of LHRHa was injected into the body of the fish for inducing spawning, and the fish were kept in a small-sized fish holder (2×2×2 m). Eggs were colorless transparent free pelagic eggs, 0.71–0.77 mm large (mean 0.74±0.02 mm, n=30), and had an oil globule. Hatching started within 27 h after fertilization. Pre-larvae that emerged just after hatching were 2.02–2.17 mm in total length (mean 2.10±0.11 mm), their mouth and anus were not opened yet, and the whole body was covered with a membrane fin. Post-larvae that emerged 15 days post hatching were 3.88–4.07 mm in total length (mean 3.98±0.13 mm), and had a ventral fin with two rays and a caudal fin with eight rays. Juveniles that were formed at 55 d post hatching, were 31.9–35.2 mm in total length (mean 33.6±2.33 mm), with red color deposited over the entire body, and black chromophores deposited in a spotted pattern. The number of fin rays, body color, and shape were the same as that in the adult fish.

The goal of this paper is double-folded. First, it is argued that the hybrid approach to multiple sluicing (Chang and Kim (2013)) makes better predictions than the leftward movement approach (Takahashi (1994), Richards (1997, 2001), Merchant (2001), Park and Kang (2007), Park (2014)); and the paper attempts to provide a possible solution to some of the empirical data, which Richards (2001) and Park and Kang (2007) report are challenging to the gapping approach (Nishigauchi (1998), Lasnik (2007, 2011)), the precursor of the hybrid approach. In doing so, this paper suggests updating Chang and Kim’s hybrid approach by extending Weir’s (2014) analysis of embedded sluicing (and fragment answers) in English. According to Weir, embedded sluicing is possible only when there are two CPs selected by bridging verbs and a limited set of non-bridging verbs, and this paper argues that multiple sluicing is an additional case that supports the existence of two CPs in embedded sluicing. Secondly, it is demonstrated that multiple sluicing in English is an empirical case that is not correctly predicted by Barros’s (2014) Unconstrained Pseudosluicing Hypothesis—namely that the sluicing of a cleft or a copular clause whose antecedent is not a cleft or a copular clause is another case of sluicing.
