A simple transfer matrix algorithm to analyze the properties of 2 dimensional waveguides is introduced. We applied this algorithm to strained InGaAs/InGaAsP GINSCH MQW laser structures. We studied how optical confinement factor and effective refractive index, which are important in calculating the modal gain, depend on the structure parameters such as waveguide width, shape of GRIN, and number of quantum wells. Especially we suggested that the concept of effective waveguide width is very useful in understanding the GRINSCH waveguide.

그래핀(graphene)의 라만 스펙트럼은 전하밀도(charge density)와 기계적 변형(strain)에 민감하여 연구에 널리 활용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 기계적 박리법으로 만든 그래핀에 황산 수용액으로 p-형 화학도핑(chemical doping)을 유발시키고 전하밀도의 변이에 따른 라만 스펙트럼의 변화를 조사하였다. 이러한 변화를 통해 황산과 물 분자의 계면 확산을 이해하고, $SiO_2/Si$ 기판의 화학적 특성이 미치는 영향을 파악하고자 하였다. 분자의 효율적인 계면 확산을 위해 고온 산화반응을 이용하여 그래핀의 기저면에 나노공(nanopore)을 만든 후, 액상에서 라만 스펙트럼을 측정하였다. 증류수 속에 담궜을 때 물 분자가 그래핀-기판 계면 사이로 확산되면서 열처리에 의해 유발된 정공이 사라짐을 확인하고, D-봉우리의 가역적인 변화로부터 그래핀의 구조적 변화를 유추하였다. 황산 농도를 증가시켰을 때 G와 2D-봉우리의 진동수가 상호간에 일정한 비율로 증가하여 정공의 밀도가 증가함 알 수 있었다. 동일한 시료에 대해 황산의 농도를 감소시킴으로써 p-형 도핑을 제거하고 동일한 반응을 가역적으로 반복할 수 있었다. 상기한 분자의 2차원 확산 현상은 나노공의 유무와 기판의 전처리 조건에 따라 크게 달라진다는 사실을 확인 할 수 있었다. 또한 여러 파장에서 측정된 전하밀도와 기계적 변형에 의한 G와 2D-봉우리의 진동수 변화로부터 다른 연구자들이 활용할 수 있는 검정곡선을 제시하였다.

The slow strain-rate test($1{\times}10^{-4}~1{\times}10^{-7}sec^{-1}$) was performed to understand the tensile properties of chopped strand glass mat/polyester composite in air and synthetic sea water. (pH 6.0, 8.2, 10.0) For the tested composite subjected to tensile loading in air and synthetic sea water (ph 6.0, 8.2, 10.0), the tensile properties are a little decreased as strain rate decrease and a little decrease in stiffness is observed in $1{\times}10^{-7}sec^{-1}$. The tensile properties were some changed in case the pH value in synthetic sea water is varied.

This paper summarizes a study on the application of the friction pendulum system in bridge seismic isolation. Shaking table tests have been carried out on a model structure isolated with F.P.S and the obtained structural responses are compared to those of non-isolated. It can be concluded the F.P.S increases the earthquake resistance capacity of the isolated structure. It is also found that the stiffness of bearing, being controlled by the radius of curvature of the spherical sliding interface, is unaffected by the amplitude of the input excitation. Furthermore, the coefficient of sliding friction is velocity dependent so that in weak excitation the sliding velocity is low and, accordingly, the mobilized friction force is less than the one mobilized in strong excitation. Also, the frictional properties of the bearings remain markedly stable after extensive testing, and the permanent displacements are small and not cumulative in successive earthquakes.

This research was carried in order to improve design technique for the vertical shaft of which design guide has not been proposed clearly. The deformation tendency of vertical shaft and distribution of the earth pressure around shaft were reviewed with both of theoretical earth pressure distribution suggested in design criteria and measured data which had been gained from 2 constructing shaft. The distribution of earth pressure applied on the vertical shaft was similar with the result of previous theory for the earth pressure proposed by Shin (2007). Moreover it was observed that asymmetric deformation and earth pressure around vertical shaft were caused by inhomogeneity and anisotropy of the ground. The asymmetric earth pressure ratio ($R_p$) in soil and weathered rock were divergent according to the shape ratio. In addition, it is more reasonable that the value of asymmetric earth pressure ratio ($R_p$) is considered less than 0.35 in the case of constructing shaft under rock.

This study was performed to treat a sewage at the upper stream of dam using modified sequencing batch reactor, During the operating period, average $COD_{cr}$, removal efficiency was about 85% but average T-N and ${PO_4}^{3-}-P$ removal efficiencies were 43% and 30% respectively. Because the organic matter was very low compared with nitrogen and phosphorous in influent($BOD_{5}/{NH_4}^{+}-N{\;}={\;}2,{\;}BOD_{5}/{PO_4}^{3-}-P{\;}={\;}15.6$), nitrogen and phosphorus removal efficiency was relatively low. Average nitrogen removal efficiency was 50 % at $10^{\circ}C$ or above and it was 36 % at $10^{\circ}C$ or below. As reactor was located in outdoor without any thermostat, temperature decreased at least $2.4^{\circ}C$ in the winter season. Therefore, if we would apply this modified sequencing batch reactor to sewage which concentration of organic matter was very low compared with nitrogen and phosphorous, we have to addition of external carbon and installation of any thermostat.

This study developed SiC$_{p}$/A1$_2$O$_3$$_{f}$/Al composites for electronic packaging to which reinforcements were added with the volume fractions of 49%, 56% and 63% by the squeeze casting method. 0.8 wt. % of the inorganic binder as well as the A1$_2$O$_3$ fiber and SiC Particles with the volume fraction of 1:10 were added to the composites, which were produced in the newly designed mold. For the produced SiC/Al composites, the CTEs (coefficients of thermal expansion) were measured from 30 to 300 and compared with the FEM numerical simulation to analyze the temperature dependent properties. The experiment showed the CTEs of SiC$_{p}$/A1$_2$O$_3$$_{f}$/Al composites that were intermediate values of those of Rule of Mixture and Turner's Model. The CTEs were close to Turner's Model in the room temperature and approached the Rule of Mixture as the temperature increases. These properties analyzed from the difference of the average stress acting between the matrix and the reinforcements proposed in this study.

Deformation strength($S_D$) is a property which shows relatively good correlation with rut resistance of asphalt mixtures at high temperature. The Asphalt Pavement Analyzer (APA) is widely used as an equipment for estimating rut resistance of asphalt mixtures. The APA was used as corresponding property of the $S_D$ to estimate rutting resistance of asphalt mixtures. Many data were collected to establish the correlation of $S_D$ with APA. For $S_D$ test, the specimen is submerged into the $60^{\circ}C$ water for 30 minutes before applying a vertical load at the speed of 50mm/min to obtain peak load (P) and deformation (y) for $S_D$ calculation. For the same materials, APA test was performed. Relation of the $S_D$ with APA rut depth was evaluated using regression analysis. The $R^2$ value was 0.76, indicating this simple test procedure being a possible method for predicting deformation resistance of asphalt concretes at high temperature. It was also shown that, using the regression model, minimum value(s) of $S_D$ of surface course asphalt mixture or binder course for a particular road level can be determined. The limit values may be possible to use as cut-off value(s) of asphalt mixtures for the layer after further elaborated studies.

Antigenic domain of jai or surface protein (p30) of Toxoplosmc Sondii was analyzed after polymerase chain reaction (PCR) of its gene fragments. Hydrophilic or hydrophobic moiety of amino acid sequences were expressed as glutathione S-transferase (G57) fusion proteins. Fragments of p30 gene were as follows: 737, total p30 open reading frame (ORF) ; S28, total ORF excluding N-terminal signal sequence and C-terminal hydrophobic sequence; Al9, N-terminal 2/3 parts of A28; A19, N-terminal 2/3 of S28; P9, C-terminal 2/3 part of S28; Z9. middle 1/3 of S28; and 29, C-terminal 1/3 of S28. respectively. Primer of each fragment was synthesized to include clamp sequence of EcoR I restriction site. PCR amplified DNA was inserted info GST (26 kDa) expression vector, PGEX-47-1 to transform into Escheri,hia coei (.JM105 strain). G57 fusion proteins were expressed with IPTG induction as 63. 54, 45, 45, 35, 36. and 35 kDa proteins measured by SDS-PAGE. Each fusion protein was confirmed with G57 detection kit. Western blot analysis with the serum of a toxoplasmosis patient revealed antigenicity in proteins expressed by T37. S28, and Al9 but not those by Pl8. X9, Y10, and Z9. Antigenicity of p30 seems to be located either in N-terminal 115 part in the presence of middle 1/3 part or in the oligopeptides between margins of the first and second 1/3 parts.

그래핀(graphene)의 라만 스펙트럼은 전하밀도(charge density)와 기계적 변형(strain)에 민감하여 수많은 연구에 활용되고 있다. 그러나 실제 시료에서 관찰되는 두 물질량의 복잡한 변이를 정량 분석하기 위해서는 기계적 변형뿐만 아니라 전하밀도의 영향에 대한 신뢰도 높은 검정곡선이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 기계적 박리법으로 만들어진 그래핀에서 나타나는 기계적 변형과 황산 수용액이 미치는 p-형 화학도핑(chemical doping)의 영향을 라만 분광법을 이용하여 연구하였다. 농도 변화에 따른 G와 2D 피크의 진동수 변화는 정전기적 방법을 이용하여 보고된 결과보다 높은 재현성을 보여 검정곡선으로 활용되기에 적합함을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구에서는 514 nm 이외에도 널리 활용되는 몇 가지 파장에서 "전하밀도-변형" 검정곡선을 제시하고자한다.
