In this paper, the unit cell of LH structure using microstrip transmission line and chip capacitor is devised, and the reactive components of equivalent circuit are extracted from the proposed unit cell. And then, we have analyzed for the unit cell parameters and applied the characteristics to the wideband high pass filter design. This filter cascading several unit cells with high pass property has been implemented on microstrip transmission line, and the performance has been the band rejection characteristics of 62.9 dB in the stop band to 0~2.18 GHz and less than the insertion loss of 1.17 dB in the pass band from 3.0G Hz to 12.75 GHz.

This paper presents the experimental result of Reinforced Concrete column-steel beam joint connected by Band Plates(BP). Main parameters in the test are the shape of BP and thickness of plate. Ten interior and exterior RC column-steel beam joint specimens are designed. Cyclic loads are applied to the beam end of eight specimens (four interior specimens and four exterior specimens). To evaluate the cyclic effect, monotonic loads are acted for two specimens. All specimen showed similar failure pattern such as the plate of BP get torn after the large deformation. Even though the specimen with double cross type BP has lower strength than the specimen with single cross type BP, the energy dissipation capacity of the specimen turned out high. Thus, provided the strength of joint with double cross type to be designed to have suitable strength by increasing the thickness of plate, the joint system may show higher seismic capacity.

In recent years, the safety of sunscreens has been challenged based on the reports of their adverse effect on users; dermatitis, allergic contact dermatitis and photo allergic contact dermatitis. The unscientific idea that higher SPF sunsreen is good for health mealeads many users to tend to prefer higher SPF sunscreen. In the toxicological aspect, the need to investigate the safety of sunscreens is steadily increasing. However, there were few studies on the correlation between sun protection factor (SPF) and the safety of sunscreens. The objective of this study was to assess whether there was a correlation between SPF and the safety of sunscreens. We measured in vitro SPF index using homosalate as a standard and examined the toxicity tests such as primary skin irritation tests, ocular irritation test and skin sensitization test. Homosalate (HS), octyl methoxycinnamate (OMC), octyl salicylate (OS), octocrylene (OC) as UVB organic filter and benzophenone-3 (BP3), butyl methoxy dibenzoil methane (BMDM) as UVA organic filter, and titanium dioxide (TD), zinc oxide (ZO) as inorganic filters were used. The skin irritation indexes in rabbits treated with HS, OMC, OS, BP3, and BMDM were significantly increased as SPF indices were increased. Neither ocular irritation in rabbits nor skin sensitization in guinea pigs were increased. It suggests that there might be a good correlation between SPF and the skin irritation indices of organic UV filters and skin irritation might be one of most sensitive index to assess the safety of sunscreens.

Generation of tryptophan-derived metabolites by indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) is a potent immunoregulatory mechanism in T cell responses. However, the mechanism remains unclear. We showed that 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid (3-HAA), the most potent metabolite, selectively induced apoptosis in activated T cells, but not in resting T cells. This was not associated with cell cycle arrest. We found that TRAIL expression was selectively induced in activated T cells by treatment of 3-HAA. Blockade of the TRAIL: DR4/DR5 pathway significantly inhibited 3-HAA-mediated T cell death. Our data suggest that TRAIL-induced apoptosis is involved in the mechanism of 3-HAA-mediated T cell death.

Among the many maunfactured processes of producing multi filamentary composites, in situ process is widely used owing tv its simplicity and easyness of mass production. In this study, the mechanical and electromagnetic properties of Cu-Fe composite materials was investigated. The tensile strength of the Cu-Fe wires increased as the Fe content and reduction ratio were increased. The Cu-30 wt%Fe composites had the best properties in terms of figure merits compared to the other Cu-Fe composites made in this study or the commercially manufactured 6/1 ACSR cables of Cu cable. The coercivity was decreased by increasing Fe content, but the squareness was increased greatly. As increasing reduction ratio, the coercivity and squareness increased up to the maximum points, and then decreased. For example, the maximum values were obtained at $0.09mm{\phi}$ for Cu-30 wt%Fe composites and at $0.066mm{\phi}$ for Cu-45 wt%Fe composites. The magnetic property of Cu-Fe wires produced by precipitation treatment was higher than that of Cu-Fe wires produced by thermomechanical treatment. By annealing Cu-Fe wires after drawing process, the coercivity, remanence and squareness were improved.

Main objective of this study is to examine the hysteretic behaviors and to evaluate the capacity of precast concrete (PC) large panel structures simulated from the prototype of 15-story building, Two 1/2 scaled precast concrete wall specimens and one monolithic reinforced concrete specimen were designed and tested under the cyclic loading conditions. The main parameter of test specimens in PC large panel structure is the type of details for vertical continuity of vertical steel in horizontal joint. Also the behaviors of PC large panel structures are compared with that of monolithic reinforcement concrete wall structure. From the results, the stiffness and energy dissipation ratio of the precast concrete specimens are shown little bit lower than those of monolithic reinforced concrete specimen. In the PC large panel structures, the specimen connected vertically by welding (strong connection) showed higher strength than that of the specimen connected vertically by joint box. However the failure pattern of the former showed more brittle than that of the latter due to the diagonal compressive failure of wall panels.

숭화법을 이용한 탄화규소(Silicon carbide) 단결정 성장시 사용되는 원료의 상(phase)이 단결정 성장에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위해 알파형 탄화규소 분말(${\alpha}-SiC$ powder)과 베타형 탄화규소 분말(${\beta}-SiC$ powder)을 각각 사용하였다. 알파형 탄화규소 분말을 사용한 경우에 단결정(single-crystal)을 성장할 수 있었으나, 베타형 탄화규소 분말을 사용하였을 때에는 다결정(poly-crystal)이 성장되었다. 다결정 형성요인에 관한 EPMA 분석결과, 베타형 탄화규소 분말의 탄소에 대한 실리콘의 원소조성비$(N_{Si}/N_C\;=\;1.57)$가 알파형 탄화규소 분말의 경우보다$(N_{Si}/N_C\;=\;0.81)$ 높음을 확인하였다. 따라서 흑연도가니(crucible) 내부의 실리콘 원자가 알파형 탄화규소 분말을 사용하는 경우보다 높은 과포화상태가 되어 종자정 표면에 미세한 실리콘 액적(droplet)이 중착되고 이것으로부터 일정하지 않은 방향성(random orientation)을 갖는 탄화규소 다결정(다양한 방향성을 갖는 다형 포함)이 성장한 것으로 실리콘과 탄소 원소에 대한 EPMA 지도(map) 결과를 통해 확인할 수 있었다.

In order to understand the tidal current and mean flow at the west channel of Yeoja Bay in the South Sea of Korea, numerical model experiments and vorticity analysis were carried out. The currents flow north at flood and south at ebb respectively and have the reversing form in the west channel. Topographical eddies are found in the surroundings of Dunbyong Island in the east of the channel. The flood currents flow from the waters near Naro Islands through the west channel and the coastal waters near Geumo Islands through the east channel. The ebb currents from the Yeoja Bay flow out along the west and the east channels separately. The south of Nang Island have weak flows because the island is located in the rear of main tidal stream. Currents are converged at ebb and diverged at flood in the northwest of Jeokgum Island. Tidal current ellipses show reversing form in the west channel but a kind of rotational form in the east channel. As the results of tide induced mean flows, cyclonic and anticyclonic topographical eddies at the northern tip but eddies with opposite spin at the southern tip are found in the west channel of Yeoja Bay. The topographical eddies around the islands and narrow channels are created from the vorticity formed at the land shore by the friction between tidal currents and the west channel.
