  • Epoxy resin has been used as matrix resin of advanced composites owing to ideally suitable properties and inherent physical and chemical properties for electrical and electronic insulation. In this paper, in order to evaluate the performance of epoxy composites for out door insulation, variations of tracking resistance were investigated on the complex ageing parameter. Also, IPN methods were introduced in order to improve performance for out door use. As a result, it was confirmed that tracking resistance were degraded with complex ageing parameters. But, it was confirmed that specimen of IPN structure have the better tracking resistance properties than SIN structure by moisture absorption aging.

  • Many different damage models have been prolxlsed for concrete in the past. Most of these are not well suited to predict the residual strength of damaged RC members. This paper reviews some basic facts alxlut concrete damage and uses these to systematically model damage as a low-cycle fatigue phenomenon. Instead of the number of load cycles to failure the energy dissipation capacity of a member is taken as the main variable, which depends on many different factors. The model is capable of simulating reasonably well the strength and stiffness degradation of I{C members subjected to strong cyclic loads.

  • 1-Methylated $\beta$-carbolines (harmaline and harmalol) and antioxidants (N-acetylcysteine and ascorbate) reduced the loss of cell viability in differentiated PC 12 cells treated with 5 mM glutamate. $\beta$-Carbolines prevented the glutamate-induced decrease in mitochondrial membrane potential, cytochrome c release and caspase-3 activation in PC 12 cells. $\beta$-Carbolines reduced the formation of reactive oxygen species and depletion of glutathione due to glutamate in PC12 cells. $\beta$-Carbolines revealed a scavenging action on hydrogen peroxide and reduced the iron and EDTA-mediated degradation of 2-deoxy-D-ribose. The results suggest that I-methylated $\beta$-carbolines attenuate the cytotoxic effect of glutamate on PC12 cells by reducing the alteration of mitochondrial membrane permeability that seems to be mediated by oxidative stress.

  • A new bacteriocin, named lacticin 10790, was purified from Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris KFCC 10790 by sequential adsorption, immobilized metal-affinity, cation-exchange, and $C_{18}$ reverse-phase chromatographies. The molecular mass of the bacteriocin was estimated to be between 3,000 and 3,500 Da. Lacticin 10790 showed a broad antimicrobial spectrum against many gram-positive bacteria. The bacteriocin was stable to heat and in the pH range between 2 and 6. Lacticin 10790 was destroyed by digestion with proteases and exhibited a bactericidal mode of action. An amino acid composition analysis of purified lacticin 10790 revealed a high concentration of hydrophobic amino acids. The N terminus of the bacteriocin was found to be blocked, upon analysis by Edman degradation. The results suggest that lacticin 10790 is a class I bacteriocin.

  • In the practical sense, it is important to assess the Young modulus and the degradation of $I_{c}$ due to mechanical deformation in HTS tapes for designing superconducting magnets. In order to establish a test method of mechanical properties in oxide composite superconductors, the committee of VAMAS/TWA 16-Subgroup proposed an international round robin test. The first effort has been focused on the multifilamentary Bi-2223 tapes. Eight groups participated in the RRT activity and each group carried out the tensile test by their own professional technique to three kinds of Bi-2223 tapes. The experimental details were reported and discussed for your information.

  • Icing is one of the most serious hazards for aircraft. The amount and rate of icing depend on a number of meteorogical and aerodynamic factors. Of primary importance are amount of liquid water content of droplets, their size, the temperature of aircraft surfaces, the collection efficiency, and the extent of supercooled droplets. In this study, in-flight icing analysis of low reynolds number high aspect ratio wing is carried out by using FENSAP-ICE. Each liquid water contents with altitude is obtained from FAR 25 Appendix-C. And the collectoin efficiency is calculated to check out the ice accretion position of wing with two angles of attack. The degradation of aerodynamic characteristics of aircraft are figured out by investigating the accretion of rime and glaze ice.

  • The structure and electrical characteristics of metal-ferroelectric-semiconductor FET(MFSFET) for a single transistor memory are presented. The MFSFET was comprised of polysilicon islands as source/drain electrodes and $BaMgF_4$ film as a gate dielectric. The polysilicon source and drain were built-up prior to the formation of the ferroelectric film to suppress a degradation of the film due to high thermal cycles. From the MFS capacitor, the remnant polarization and coercive field were measured to be about $0.6{\mu}C/cm^2$ and 100 kV/cm, respectively. The fabricated MFSFETs also showed good hysteretic I-V curves, while the current levels disperse probably due to film cracking or bad adhesion between the film and the Al electrode.

  • This paper proposes a sound multicast packet-switching method which can less affect QoS(Quality of Service) degradation. The method includes a switch fabric with extra switching paths dedicated f()r multicast packets. Presented also are both a buffering structure and a scheduling algorithm for the proposed method. Simulation analysis for the method shows that the switching delay of unicast packets is decreased even though arrival rate of multicast packets is increased.

  • Epoxy resin insulator have good electrical properties (high electric strength, high resistivity, low dielectric loss) in addition to high mechanical strength, small dimensions and design versatility. Polymer insulator, however, are subjected to aging processes, caused by the surrounding atmosphere, which may lead to degradation of their properties. This paper describes the results of a important study on the artificial pollution test, Weather-Ometer properties and rotating wheel dip test of high voltage different aging insulators which are the most important factors for outdoor uses. Also, the objects of this paper are to (a)result of insulator under dry(wet) flashover voltage, (b)artificial pollution test of salt spay, (c)Accelerated aging test of Weather-Ometer, (d) wet and dry flashover voltage under rotating wheel dip test.

  • In order to investigate 95% retained critical current of Bi-2223/Ag tapes under various stress-strain conditions, load cell attached tension and bending apparatus was used. The critical current of stress-strained tape was degraded below 95% retained critical current when tension and bending was simultaneously applied together. But only one of this tension or bending did not degrade the tape below 95% retained critical current. Deformation temperature was important to maintain the 95% retained Ic of Bi-2223/Ag tapes after bending or tension deformation because mechanical strength of tapes can be changed drastically between room temperature and 77 K.
