The effect of $V_2O_5$, a donor-type dopant on the degradation of quality factor of ($Zr_{0.8}, Sn_{0.2})TiO_4$was compared with Ta$_2$O$_{5}$ doped ($Zr_{0.8}, Sn_{0.2})TiO_4$ in terms of microstructure, electrical conductivity, and oxidation state of the dopant. It is well known that the addition of the donor type species such as $Ta_2O_5,Nb_2O_5, Sb_2O_5, WO_{3}$, increases the quality factor of ($Zr_{0.8}, Sn_{0.2})TiO_4$due to decrease the oxygen vacancy concentration. Unlike other dopants, however, the addition of $V_2O_5$ decreased the quality factor. The degradation of quality factor of ($Zr_{0.8}, Sn_{0.2})TiO_4$was resulted from the formation of grain boundary phase and $V_2O_5$rich fiber shaped secondary phase, and the increasing the oxygen vacancy concentration due to unstability of oxidation state of vanadium ions in ($Zr_{0.8}, Sn_{0.2})TiO_4$ceramic.c.

If conventional reinforcements are used for high-strength concrete (HSC) structures, a large amount of the reinforcement must be required to compensate for the brittleness of HSC and make the best use of HSC. This raises some structural problems such as steel congestion and an increase in self-weight. Therefore, alternative reinforcing materials and methods for HSC structures are needed. In this study, four full-scale beam specimens constructed with HSC (100 MPa) were tested to investigate the effect of the different shear reinforcements on the shear behavior. These four specimens were reinforced for shear stirrups with normal and high strength steels, headed bars, and carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) bars, respectively. In addition, steel fibers were added to the HSC in the two of the specimens to observe their beneficial effects. The use of high strength steels resulted in the improvement of the shear capacity since the shear resistance provided by the shear reinforcements and the bond strength were increased. The specimen reinforced with headed bars also showed a superior performance to the conventional steel reinforced specimen due to the considerably high anchorage strength of headed bar. CFRP bars used in this research, however, seemed to be inadequate for shear reinforcement because of the inferior bond capacity. The presence of the steel fibers in concrete led to remarkable improvement in the ductility of the specimens as well as in the overall cracks control capability.

The androgenic gland secretes a hormone, androgenic gland hormone, which is believed to act on the differentiation of the primary, secondary, and behavioral sex characteristics in most malacostracan crustaceans. This report presents the ultrastructural morphology of the androgenic gland in the freshwater prawn Macrobrachium nipponense. This gland, located in the coxopodite of the last pair of walking legs, was attached to the subterminal region of the sperm duct. The gland was composed of simple cellular strands, encased by a fibrous sheath. Microvilli were situated in the fibrous sheath, especially at the edge of each cellular strand. The androgenic gland cells had the large and round nucleus and rough endoplasmic reticulum arranged either in spirals or in concentric circles throughout the cytoplasm of the cell. They also had the well-developed Golgi complex and long mitochondria with flat and transverse cristae. The Golgi complex was similar to microvesicular cluster, but usually in the shape of typical dictyosomes, These features of androgenic gland cells coincides well with the protein/peptide secretion in their function. However, despite the apparent ultastructual equipment for protein/peptide secretion, no accumulation of materials secreted were noticed in the cytoplasm. Therefore it is strongly suggested that the transient transportation of the materials into the hemocoel has occurred just after synthesis.

The ultrastructure of the integumental epidermis of Korean planaria (Dugesia japonica) is studied by light microscope, scanning electron microscope and transmission electron microscope. The planaria has mono-layered integumental epidermis in which most of cells exhibit irregularly columnar shape. The epidermal cells of the integument are classified into six types on the basis of cytochemical and ultrastructural characteristics. 1) Ciliated epithelial cells: These cells have cilia in their free surfaces. The axonemes of cilia exhibits fundamental 9+2 microtubular pattern. 2) Eosinophilic cells: These cells contain a few large eosinophilic granules. The core of eosinophilic granule is consisted of sparsely dispersed fibrillar structures in relatively electron-lucent ground material. 3) Mucous cells: These cells are filled with irregularly shaped, PAS-positive mucous granules which have an average size of $0.8\\times0.3 \\muM$. 4) Rhabdite-forming cells: These cells possess a few strongly-eosinophilic large rhabdite granules. The rhabdite granules are synthesized either in the rhabdite-forming cells which constitute integumental epidermis or in the corresponding cells which are developed in the parenchyma and later transferred to epidermal cells of integumental epidermis through basement membrane. 5) A-type of basophilic granule cells: These granule cells possess round or irregularly-shaped granules which are strongly stained with Alcian blue. These electron-dense granules have an average size of $1.5\\times1.0 \\muM$. This type of cells is derived from parenchymal tissue. 6) B-type of basophilic granule cells: These basophilic granule cells with PAS-positive granules, are found in the epidermis of lateral body wall. The granules, which are about $0.7\\times0.4 \\muM$ in size, occupying most part of this cell type are originated from the parenchyma.

Chinese minnow, Rhynchocypris oxycephalus is a teleost belonging to Leuciscinae, Cyprinidae. The oogenesis and ultrastructure of egg envelope in Chinese minnow were investigated by light and electron microscopes. The ovary was of white yellowish and ellipsoidal shape with the major axis 30 mm and the minor axis 7mm. Cytoplasm of oogonia was basophilic and many nucleoli were located at inside of nuclear membrane. In primary oocytes, yolk vesicles were distributed only in the marginal area and egg envelope was not formed on the outside of an egg. In secondary oocytes, the egg envelope was formed and yolk vesicles in the cytoplasm were increased than the earlier stage. The basophilic substance of cytoplasm was changed to acidic. In case of matured egg, thickness of egg envelope and size of egg were increased. The yolk vesicles were changed to yolk mass in accordance with development. The outer surface of egg envelope was covered by microvilli-structures, and had a micropyle on the area of animal pole. Egg envelope consisted with 2 layers, an adhesive outer layer with microvilli-structures and fibrillar inner layer. In conclusion, the oogenesis of Chinese minnow was characterized by the increase in cell size, the formation and accumulation of yolk, and the decrease of basophilic substance in the cytoplasm. The oogenesis of Chinese minnow seems to share common patterns in Cyprinidae, but these ultrastructural unique characters of egg envelope can be utilized in taxonomy of teleost.

This research explores the potential application of Liquid Red Mud(LRM), a byproduct of industrial processes, in the construction sector. We neutralized LRM(pH 10-12) using nitric acid, aiming to understand its viability in construction applications. The study involved substituting LRM(pH 7-8) in mortar formulations, varying by cement type. We assessed the properties of these mixtures by measuring flow, setting time, and compressive strength. Additionally, X-ray Diffraction(XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy(SEM) analyses were conducted to examine the chemical properties. Results indicated a reduction in flow value for LRM and LN(neutralized LRM) compared to the control (Plain ) across different cement types. The setting times(initial and final) for LRM and LN were notably shorter than Plain. In compressive strength tests, LRM replaced with slag cement showed enhanced initial strength, though long-term strength gains were marginal across different cement types. SEM analysis revealed distinct voids in Plain and LN, with LRM exhibiting a fibrous microstructure. XRD patterns in SN(slag neutralized) resembled those in OR(original red mud) and ON(original neutralized), with a notable peak at a 2θ value of 22°. The study concludes that unneutralized LRM, when substituted for slag cement in mortar, yields superior initial strength compared to its neutralized counterpart.

패선/구부림 가공은 백판지의 후가공의 일부분으로서 통상적으로 고평량인 백판지를 소비 자에게 맞는 형태로 가공하는 한 공정으로서 접는 공정을 용이하게 하기 위하여 종이 표면 에 패선을 넣어 구부려 접게 되는데 이때 구부리는 면의 표면적의 증가와 내부에서 외부로 향하는 Stress 에 의하여 종이의 표면층이 터지는 현상이 발생하기도 한다.이러한 터짐을 방지하면서 구부립 가공을 하기 위하여 백판지에 요구되는 특성은 여러 가지가 있으며 특히 고평량인 경우에는 종이가 구부러지면서 변형이 크게되는 만큼 외부로 밀리는 힘이 더욱크 게 작용하게 되고 이 힘을 충분히 수용할 수 있는 종이 자체의 강도가 펼요하게 되는데 본 연구에서는 다층판지의 원료특성과 판지특성등이 패션/구부림 가공적성과 연관성을 밝혀내 어 향후 연구방향의 기초를 삼고자 한다. 본 실험에서는 실험실적 결과와 실제 제품에서와의 차이를 최소화 하기 위하여 현장에서 생산되는 백판지를 사용하였으며 백판지의 각층을 구성하는 원료특성과의 상관관계까지 고 려하여 대전공장에서 생산되는 원료의 특성을 분석하고 같은 시간대의 제품과 비교펑가하는 방법을 취하였다. 각각의 원료 특성과 제품특성 (구부러짐 특성) . 공정조건등의 자료를 일정기간 취합하여 S Statisca 를 사용한 통계분석을 하였으며 1차 분석 결과 종이무성에 미치는 영향이 큰 수분 함량과 표면층의 원료구성 (Softwood 함량) 이 일차적으로 영향을 크게 미치며 종이 특성 으로는 CD 방향 터짐과 관련하여 MD 방향 인장, 내절, CD방향 강성등이 상관관계지수 0 0.7 이상으로 비교적 관계가 깊은 것으로 나타나며 인장과 신장율의 곱인 Toughness는 상 대적으로 낮아 터짐 지수로 활용하기는 어려울 것으로 판단되며 또한 신장율도 0.5 수준으 로 나타나며 패선구부러짐에 따른 층간구조변화에 따른 층간결합력이 영향이 있을 것으로 추측은 되었으나 분석결과 0.5 수준인 것으로 나타났다. 또한 CD 방향과 MD 방향의 터짐 성 상관관계도 0.5 이상인 것으로 나타나 섬유배향성도 패선/구부림 가공적성과 관련이 있 는 것으로 나타남으로서 패선/구부림 적성향상은 원료뿐만 아니라 초지공정조건에서도 향상 될 수 있는 것으로 나타났다. 향후 보다 세분화한 분석 및 도공층의 역할이 펼요할 것으로 판단되며 또한 지층구조분석 을 통한 Modeling 도 필요한 것으로 판단된다.

Substituting composite structures for conventional metallic structures has many advantages because of higher specific stiffness and specific strength of composite materials. In this work, one-piece driveshafts composed of carbon/epoxy and glass/epoxy composites were designed and manufactured for a rear wheel drive automobile satisfying three design specifications, such as static torque transmission capability, torsional buckling and the fundamental natural bending frequency. Single lap adhesive joint was used to join the composite shaft and the aluminum yoke. The torque transmission capability of the adhesively bonded composite shaft was calculated with respect to bonding length and yoke thickness by finite element analysis and compared with the experimental result. Torque transmission capability was based on the Tsai-Wu failure index fur composite shaft and the failure model which incorporated the nonlinear mechanical behavior of aluminum yoke and epoxy adhesive. From the experiments and the finite element analyses, it was found that the static torque transmission capability of the composite driveshaft was highest at the critical yoke thickness, and saturated beyond the critical length. Also, it was found that the one-piece composite driveshaft had 40% weight saving effect compared with a conventional two-piece steel driveshaft.
