The optimum mold design and the optimum process condition were constructed upon executing process simulation of rubber injection molding with the commercial CAE program of MOLDFLOW (Ver. 5.2) in order to solve the process-problems of K company relating to cracks, which occurs at the inner cavity wall of C. V. joint boots. As a result it was confirmed that the real cracks occurs at the exactly same position of the cavity as exhibits the defects of weld and meld line and unsatisfactory curing according to the result of simulation. In order to prevent the occurrence of weld and meld line at the defect-position, the location of gate was altered to the optimum position of the cavity. Consequently the filling pattern was established to minimize the degree of the melt-fronts confronting or the melt-flows melding to prevent the occurrence of weld and meld line at the defect-position. It was observed that both gate-positions to maximize the degree of the formation of weld and meld line and air traps are located, respectively, in opposite direction each other with reference to the optimum gate position. In addition, the temperature of mold was raised by $10^{\circ}C$ and maintained at $170^{\circ}C$ for satisfactory curing.

Most fire victims succumb to smoke inhalation, and fire smoke toxicity from interior materials is increasing with increased use of plastics. Large amounts of hazardous effects of smoke are related to deposition of smoke particles in respiratory tracts, and deposition characteristics are influenced by size distribution of particles. Thus, it is essential to know the size distribution of smoke particles from plastics for hazard analysis of fire smoke. In a recent study, it has been shown that size distributions of smoke particles from PP are different from wood in many aspects. In order to know whether other plastics show the same characteristics as PP, size distributions of smoke particles from four plastic materials (LDPE, PA66, PMMA, and PVC) were measured in real time under each fire type with various temperature and oxygen supply. In this study, smoke particles from different plastics were generated uniformly by using steady-state tube furnace method provided in ISO/TS 19700. Their size distributions were measured by using an electrical low pressure impactor (ELPI). Results of measurements showed that size distributions of smoke particles from these four plastic materials were similar to those from PP in many aspects. However, they were distinctively different from those of wood.

Important operation parameters and performance of a high temperature ceramic candle filter system were evaluated through a series of demonstration tests at a pilot-scale vitrification plant. At the initial period of each test, due to the growth of dust cake on the surface of ceramic candles, the pressure drop across the filter media increased sharply. After that it became stable to a certain range and varied continuously proportion to the face velocity of off-gas. On the contrary, at the initial period of each test, the permeability of filter element decreased rapidly and then it became stable. Back flushing of the filter system was effective under the back flushing air pressure range of 3∼5 bar. Based on the dust concentrations measured by iso-kinetic dust sampling at the inlet and outlet point of HTF, the dust collection efficiency of HTF evaluated. The result met the designed performance value of 99.9%. During the demonstration tests including a hundred hour long test, no specific failure or problem affecting the performance of HTF system were observed.

Effects of Combined Restistance Training Program of Concentric and Eccentric Contraction Using Theraband on Shoulder Rotation Torque Max and Peak Power. Korean Joumal of Sport Biomechanics, Vol. 19, No. 1, pp. 139-148, 2009. The purpose of this study was to find out that combined concentric with eccentric resistance training program using Thera-Band was more effective than only concentric resistance training program on shoulder rotation torque max and peak power. 30 female students were randomly assigned to 3 equal group; concentric and eccentric, concentric, non training group. Subjects were tested in concentric and eccentric torque max and peak power of internal and external rotation using a CON-TERX isokinetic dynamometer. Subjects in training group participated in their regular five times a week for 4 weeks. After exercise, in concentric and eccentric training group, concentric and eccentric torque max, and peak power of internal rotator at 60 deg/sec were increased significantly. concentric peak power at 120 deg/sec were increased significantly. In concentric training group, only concentric peak power of internal rotator at 60 and 120 deg/sec was increased. In conclusion, we found out that combined concentric with eccentric resistance training program using Thera-Band was more effective than only concentric resistance training program on shoulder rotation torque max and peak power.

This study was performed to compare two opioid drugs with isoflurane and to determine the difference between isoflurane/remifentanil anesthesia and isoflurane/fentanyl anesthesia in terms of the anesthetic effects in beagle dogs. Isoflurane was maintained at 0.5 MAC, and the opioid drug was administered as a constant rate infusion. The anesthesia was maintained for 2 hours, and isoflurane and opioid drugs were discontinued 2 hours later. After discontinuing the anesthetics, the extremity movement time, eye global positioning time, gag reflex time, head up time, sternal recumbency time, standing time, walking time and complete recovery times were recorded for each dog. Both of the studied anesthetic protocols were suitable in beagle dogs because the anesthetic status was well maintained until the end of the procedure, and rapid recovery times were demonstrated in this experiment. And this study shows that the isoflurane/remifentanil group was more reliable than the isoflurane/fentanyl group because the recovery time CV was lower. Therefore, isoflurane/remifentanil combination anesthesia could be a better choice than isoflurane/fentanyl anesthesia if the patient is severely ill and stable recovery time is needed.
