본 연구는 정밀여과막의 막오염 수준을 예측할 수 있는 막오염 평가지표 개발에 관한 것이다. 막오염 지표는 세공크기가 0.1 μm인 Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) 재질의 침지형 중공사 미니모듈을 이용한 실험장치로 측정되었다. 유입 수는 막오염 메커니즘을 대표할 수 있는 막오염 물질인 Kaolin, Silica, Humic Acid, Alginate를 최적의 비율로 조합한 표준 조제수를 이용하였으며, 단시간에 막오염의 변별력을 높이기 위해 한강원수 기준으로 가혹조건의 농도를 적용하였다. 이 막오염 평가지표의 타당성 검증은 미니모듈과 현장 실규모 모듈의 평 가결과를 비교함으로써 수행하였다. 본 막오염 지표는 막오염의 속도를 예측하 기 위한 객관적인 지표로 활용이 가능하다고 판단되며, 미니모듈 측정결과는 정수장내 막면적 50 m2의 실규모 모듈의 결과와 부합되는 것으로 나타났다.

Oriental fruit moth Grapholita molesta (Busck) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) is an important pest for stone fruits like apple, peach, pear etc. Growers usually depend on chemical insecticides to control this pest, but it causes problems like resistance, pest resurgence, and health hazard. Although various plant extracts have been known to be potential against other lepidopterans, their effectiveness against oriental fruit moth has rarely been studied. So, we evaluated toxicity of 28 methanolic plant extracts known from previous literatures in the laboratory condition. Residual toxicity against 1st instar larvae (<5 h old) were examined using glass scintillation vial method at the concentration of 2 mg/ml. Among the tested botanicals Nicotiana tabacum L. was most effective and showed 92% mortality within 20 h and LT50 value was 12.9 h followed by Allium sativum L., Zanthoxylum piperitum (L.), and Sapindus mukorossi Gaerten. which showed 88, 70, and 65% mortality within 20 h, respectively. Rhododendron micranthum Turcz., Humulus japonicus Seibold & Zucc., Nerium indicum Mill., and other extracts showed least effectiveness on 1st instar larvae of oriental fruit moth. Hence, we suggest N. tabacum, A. sativum, Z. piperitum, and S, mukorossi as botanicals to be used against oriental fruit moth.

PURPOSES: The objective of this study is to investigate the properties of recycled asphalt binders with five different rejuvenators, in order to evaluate the applicability of the recycled asphalt binders compared with the original asphalt binder. METHODS: In order to simulate recycled asphalt binders, fresh asphalt binders are aged by various Superpave aging procedures, such as the rolling thin-film oven (RTFO) and the pressure aging vessel (PAV). Then, selected rejuvenators are added to the aged asphalt binders in the amount of 5%, 10%, and 15%. The asphalt binder properties are evaluated by the dynamic shear rheometer (DSR), the rotational viscometer (RV), and the bending beam rheometer (BBR). In this study, AP-5 (penetration grade 60-80, PG 64-16) asphalt binder is used. A total of five types of rejuvenators are employed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS : When considering aged asphalt without a new asphalt binder, it seems that the percentage of rejuvenator used in Korea is a bit too low, and that it fails to possess the characteristics of the original binder. From the current practice of evaluating the properties of recycled binder based on penetration ratio only, the amount of rejuvenator required is similar for the long-term-aged binder, but is excessive for the longest-term aged binder, causing deterioration of workability and stiffness of the recycled binder.

Currently, the management of Riptortus pedestris (Hemiptera: Alydidae) relies mainly on insecticide application in most crop productions. However, there have been very few detailed studies concerning the potential behavioral effects of sublethal dose of insecticide. This study was conducted to address sublethal effects of five insecticides on the mobility of R. pedestris. Adult R. pedestris were individually exposed to dry residue of insecticides for 4 hours in laboratory. Tested insecticides were fenitrothion (organophosphate), etofenprox (pyrethroid), bifenthrin (pyrethroid), acetamiprid (neonicotinoid) and dinotefuran (neonicotinoid). After the exposure, vertical climbing ability and flight capacity of survived R. pedestris were evaluated and compared to water-treated control. First, the mortality of R. pedestris after the 4-h insecticide exposure was as follows: 10% for fenitrothion, 3.4% for dinotefuran, 3.4% for acetamiprid, 0% for etofenprox and 0% for bifenthrin. The vertical mobility of R. pedestris was affected differently by insecticides tested. Acetamiprid resulted in decrease (37%) in the vertical mobility, whereas dinotefuran caused increase (153%) in the ability compared to the control. There was no effect by three other insecticides on the vertical mobility. In general, tested insecticides did not affect the flight capacity of R. pedestris compared to untreated individuals. However, etofenprox resulted in increase (230%) in the flight capacity. The results of this study indicate that insecticide-treated but survived R. pedestris can show similar or even increased mobility compared to untreated individuals. This should be considered in designing insecticide application programs against of R. pedestris.

The surfaces of most atmosphereless solar system objects are referred to as regolith, layers of loosely connected fragmentary debris, produced by meteorite impacts. Measurements of light scattered from such surfaces provides information about the composition and structure of the surface. A suitable way to characterize the scattering properties is to consider how the intensity and polarization of scattered light depends on the particle size, composition, porosity, roughness, wavelength of incident light and the geometry of observation. In the present work, the effect of porosity on bidirectional re ectance as a function of phase angle is studied for alumina powder with grain size of 0.3 μm and olivine powder with grain size of 49 μm at 543.5 nm. The optical constants of the alumina sample for each porosity were calculated with Maxwell Garnett eective medium theory. On using each of the optical constants of alumina sample in Mie theory with the Hapke model the variation of bidirectional re ectance is obtained as a function of phase angle with porosity as a parameter. Experimental re ectance data are in good agreement the model. For the olivine sample the effect of porosity is studied using Hapke (2008).

The study was conducted with statical analysis of data (828 data in 2010, 752 data in 2012, 648 data in 2014) in order to evaluate laboratory awareness difference of research employees working in different types of universities. Results of the study were as follows: First, university institutes in the order of polytechnic colleges, university, and junior college showed the highest laboratory safety awareness in 'awareness and education of laboratorial safety regulation' and 'awareness in laboratory risk factors'. Second, the difference in safety awareness of universities by year(years that conducted current status survey) was the highest in year 2014, then in 2010, and in 2008. Third, the difference of research employees working for laboratory safety management by year(years that conducted current status) showed that university had the highest laboratory safety awareness in year 2010, but it changed to polytechnic colleges in year 2012 and 2014. Through this study, we could recognize the difference in safety awareness of research employees working in university institutes

In these days, hazards in laboratories are consistently increasing due to high technological advance in modern science. Efforts to prevent accidents in laboratories became law named [ACT ON THE ESTABLISHMENT OF SAFE LABORATORY ENVIRONMENT]. The law made laboratories more safely but it’s not enough to keep up laboratory safety in advanced countries. To improve laboratory safety, this study reformed laboratory emergency response flow chart based on each emergency scenarios and its evaluated hazards in laboratories applied wireless hazard detecting equipments.

Lymantria dispar (Linne), gypsy moth, is known as euryphagous insect and one of forest pests having wide range of host. Female of European Gypsy Moth (EGM) are flightless whereas those of the Asian Gypsy Moth (AGM) are strong fliers. So, we studied flight ability of female AGM by using flight mill device. The flight measurements of female AGM are recorded for an hour using 1- and 2-day-old mated and unmated individuals. As a results, mated females were observed more active the unmated. But, flight speed of unmated females are faster than mated. Flight frequency wasn't showed any significant difference between mated and unmated females.

Notwithstanding the existence of The Act on the Establishment of Safe Laboratory Environment to prevent accidents in laboratory, it has not been secured substantive level of safety. Moreover, it is hard to apply to the scope of responsibility when the accident occurs in laboratory with The Occupational Safety and Health(OSH) Act. Thus, it is necessary to review and compare the OSH Act and The Act on the Establishment of Safe Laboratory Environment to reinforce the safety in laboratory.

PURPOSES : It is well known that experts determined the current standard dimensions of freeway lane markings. However, rigorous engineering rationale could be insufficient regarding whether or not the standard dimensions account for how visible the markings are to the driver. In this study, we seek to optimize the dimensions of freeway lane markings to improve their visibility to drivers. METHODS: The study was conducted as follows. First, alternative lane marking dimensions were selected which could be installed in a test construction site. Second, a video recording was made while driving on the test construction site. Third, subjects were shown the recorded video and then instructed to indicate their preference from among the various lane markings. Lastly, t-tests were applied to assess the statistical significance of differences in the preferences expressed. RESULTS : According to the t-test results, there was no significant difference in the preferences expressed regarding the lane marking widths. However, with regard to the dimensions of freeway lane marking, which represents line marking lengths, gap lengths, and widths of marking, the subjects expressed a preference for specific dimensions such as 6 m:12 m,13 cm, 8 m:12 m,10 cm and 6 m:12 m,10 cm. CONCLUSIONS : In considering the dimensions of freeway lane markings and their relation to visibility by the driver, it was found that dimensions such as 6 m:12 m,13 cm, 8 m:12 m,10 cm and 6 m:12 m,10 cm.

잔물땡땡이(Hydrochara affinis) 유충의 지하집모기(Culex pipiens molestus)와 토고숲모기 (Ochlerotatus togoi)에 대한 포식효율과 먹이선호도를 실험하였다. 포식실험에는 투명한 원통형 용기(지름 100 mm, 높이 40 mm, 수심 15 mm)가 사용되었으며, 25􀆆C에서 24시간 (16L : 8D)동안 진행되었다. 잔물땡땡이 개체당 모기 섭식 효율을 조사하기 위해 각 잔물땡땡이 유충에 대해 서로 다른 먹이조건(1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64 및 128개체)을 주었고, 각 조건별로 5회씩 반복실험 하였다. 모기유충 2종에 대한 먹이 선호도를 조사하기 위해 잔물땡땡이 1령 유충에 지하집모기와 토고숲모기 유충 32개체씩을 동시에 투여하여 5회 반복실험 하였다. 실험의 결과 모기유충 2종에 대한 잔물땡땡이 유충의 포식곡선은 로그함수의 곡선으로 나타났으며, 잔물땡땡이 유충의 영기가 증가함에 따라 포식수도 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 포식곡선으로부터 잔물땡땡이 3령 유충의 1일 최대 포식수를 산출한 결과, 지하집모기는 926개체를, 토고숲모기는 304개체를 포식할 것으로 추정되었다. Holling’s disk equation을 이용하여 추정한 결과, 잔물땡땡이 유충의 영간, 그리고 모기유충의 종간에 모기유충 포식수의 차이가 발생하는 것은 Attack rate보다는 Handling time의 차이에 기인한 것으로 사료된다. Handling time은 잔물땡땡이 유충이 성장함에 따라 급격히 감소하였으며, 토고숲모기가 지하집모기에 비해 2배가량 길게 나타났다.

Liriomyza species are the major pests of greenhouse and field crops. It was as minor pests in past, but the pest population increased rapidly such as L. trifolii, L. huidobresnsis and L. sativae during recent years is attributed to application of ineffective insecticides and developed insecticide resistance. This study was carried out to determine the efficacy of insecticides groups, Anthranilic diamide, Biopesticide, Carbamate, Neonicotinoid, Organophosphate, Pyrethroid and Oxadiazine, recommended for the control of leafminer species in Korea. Bioassay tests were done on first, third larval stages and adults under glasshouse and laboratory conditions respectively. The result showed significant differences in toxicity among the tested insecticides. The mortality of abamectin and lepimectin and spinosad were higher (>50%) in larvae stages. Etofenprox insecticide was not effective on larvae stage. The toxicity of Cartap hydrochlorid (Neonicotinoid) was higher (100%) in adult insects, followed by thiamethoxam, etofenprox and indoxacarb. Abamectin and lepimectin showed the decreasing toxicity level as insect stage developed. Abamectin showed least toxicity (26.67%) in adult stage. Spinetoram and emamectin benzoate showed higher toxicity (>50%) in all the insect stages tested. It could be suggested that abmectin and lepimectin have high efficiencies on control of larvae. However, spinosad and emamectin benzoate has higher potential on the control of both larvae and adult insects.

PURPOSES : The purpose of this study is to evaluate of field application and laboratory performance of warm-mix asphalt (WMA) according to the dosage rate of organic-based WMA additive. METHODS: Three asphalt mixtures, i.e., hot mix asphalt (HMA), WMA with the dosage rate of 1.5%, WMA with the dosage rate of 1.0%, were sampled from the asphalt plant when the field trial project were constructed. With these mixtures, the laboratory testings were performed to evaluate the linear viscoelastic characteristics and the resistance to moisture, rutting and fatigue damage. RESULTS : From the laboratory test results, it was found that the WMA with the reduced dosage rate of additive would be comparable to HMA and WMA with the original dosage rate in terms of the dynamic modulus, tensile strength ratio, rutting resistance. However, the fatigue reisistance of WMA with the reduced dosage rate was slightly worse but it should be noted that the fatigue performance is necessarily predicted by combining the material properties and pavement structure. CONCLUSIONS: Through the field construction and laboratory testings, the dosage rate of organic-based WMA additive could be reduced from 1.5% to 1.0% without the significant decrease of compactability and laboratory performance. The long-term performance of the constructed pavement will be periodically monitored to support the findings from this study.
