The kinetics of the thermal-oxidative decomposition of waste polyurethane (PU) according to oxygen concentration has been studied using a non-isothermal thermogravimetric technique at several heating rates from 10 to $50^{\circ}C/min$. A kinetic model accounting for the effects of the oxygen concentration by the differential and integral method based on Arrhenius equation was proposed to describe the thermal-oxidative decomposition of waste PU. To obtain the information on the kinetic parameters such as activation energy, reaction order, and pre-exponential factor, the thermogravimetric analysis curves and its derivatives have been analyzed using the kinetic analysis method proposed in this work. From this work, it was found that reaction orders for oxygen concentration had a negative sign, and activation energy decreased as the oxygen concentration increased. It was also found that the kinetic parameters obtained from the integral method using the single heating rate experiments varied with heating rates. Therefore, it is thought that the differential method using the multiple heating rate experiments more effectively represents the thermal-oxidative decomposition of waste polyurethane.

본 연구는 풋콩 탈협기 개발을 위한 기초연구로서 풋콩 탈협기의 급치를 교환할 수 있고, 급동의 주속도와 송풍팬의 회전속도 및 공기 흡입구의 개구면적을 조절할 수 있는 실험장치를 제작하고, 급치의 종류가 풋콩의 탈협 및 손상에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 또한 송풍팬의 회전속도와 흡입 공기구의 개구비 변화 따른 선별 성능을 분석하였다. 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1 급치의 종류에 따른 풋콩의 미 탈협율은 철선 급치가 최대 1.6%, 최소 0.0%,평균 0.7%로서 가장 낮게 나타났고, 그 다음이 경도 60의 고무제 급치로서 최대 2.0%, 최소 0.0% 평균 1.1%, 경도 80의 고무제 급치는 최대 2.5%, 최소 0.0% 평균 1.7% 순으로 높아졌다. 또한 풋콩의 미탈협율은 급동 원주속도가 18m/s에서 55m/s로 증가할수록 감소하였다. 이는 급동의 원주 속도가 증가함에 따라 급치의 선단이 풋콩 꼬투리에 가하는 타격력이 증가하기 때문인 것으로 생각된다. 2. 급치의 종류에 따른 풋콩의 손상율은 경도 80의 고무제 급치는 최대 5.2%, 최소 1.3%, 평균 2.8%로서 가장 낮게 나타났고, 그 다음이 경도 60의 고무제 급치로서 최대 5.7%, 최소 2.4% 평균 3.8%, 철선 급치는 최대 6.3%, 최소 2.6% 평균 4.2% 순으로 높아졌다. 또한 풋콩의 손상율은 급동 원주속도가 증가할수록 풋콩 꼬투리의 손상율은 증가하였다. 이 또한 급등의 원주 속도가 증가함에 따라 급치의 선단이 풋콩 꼬투리에 가하는 타격력이 증가하기 때문인 것으로 생각된다. 3. 공기흡입구의 개구면적을 증가시킬수록 선별율은 높게 나타났으나 개구비가 60%이상에서는 선별율이 크게 차이가 나지 않았으며, 송풍팬의 원주속도를 높일수록 선별율은 높게 나타났다.도 콤바인이 직선구간 및 선회구간을 주행하며 수확작업이 가능함을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 곡선구간에서는 최대오차가 65.5 cm로 매우 크게 나타나, 콤바인을 무인 자율주행으로 수확하기에는 어려움이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 실제 포장은 이론적인 완전한 직선보다는 작은 굴곡이 있는 곡선의 형태가 이루어져 있으므로 주행 오차를 감소하기 위해서는 기계시각을 이용하면 보다 정밀한 조향을 이룰 수 있을 것으로 예상된다. 포장에서 DGPS 신호, 자이로 센서 등을 이용한 콤바인의 무인주행 장치는 무인 수확작업을 위한 가능성을 보여주었고, 일부의 센서의 기능을 개선하면 만족한 성능을 나타낼 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.dislocations form local defect arrangements at the grooves permitting the substantial reduction in defect density over the remainder of the interfacial area.한 최대의 감자 재배지역을 형성하였다. 제주도는 산지지형과 따뜻한 기온으로 2기작이 가능하고, 감자가공 공장설립과 교통발달에 따른 육지 시장과의 접근이 용이해졌기 때문에 남한에서 2번째로 큰 감자재배지역이 되었다.(요약 및 결론에서 발췌)그람양성균에서 효과적이었으며, 농도별 항균력시험 결과 농도가 증가할수록 비례하여 저해율도 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 첨가농도를 달리하여 미생물의 생육도를 측정한 결과, fraction II磎꼭\ulcorner경우 그람양성균에 대해 500 ppm 이상에서 뚜렷한 증식억제효과를 나타내었다.서 뚜렷한 증식억제효과를 나타내었다.min/+}$계 수컷 이형접합체 형질전환 마우스에 AIN-76A 정제사료만을 투여한 대조군은 1.40$\pm$

It is important to localize trains precisely for the purpose of controlling them and there have been many studies designed to accomplish this without the need for wayside systems. Since trains run on fixed railway lines, it is possible to search in one direction to localize them. Moreover, it is also possible to know the shape of the line in advance. In the case of high speed trains, their speed and, therefore, their Doppler frequency is relatively high and the railway line is either linear or circular with a large radius. In this study, we utilize these features and propose a train localization method using the Doppler frequency of the signals transmitted from two points (base stations). We derive localization equations for a linear line, circular line, and mixed line (linear plus circular) respectively. Though Doppler radars are usually used to measure speed, the proposed method obtains the location information and the speed successively using the ratio of the doppler frequencies of two signals without knowing the location information or the speed. Computer simulations are performed to show the variation of the estimation error according to the train's location and the measurement error level. The conditions required to obtain the target error level and the increase in the estimation error according to the measurement error are compared between the proposed and conventional methods. The results show the superior performance and robustness of the proposed method.

당뇨환자가 합병증으로 고혈압이 있을 경우 항고혈압약물인 딜티아젬을 투여시 딜티아젬의 동태학적 측면에서 투여계획을 설계하기 위해서 토끼에 알록산을 당뇨병모델을 만들었다. 알록산으로 유도된 급성 및 만성 당뇨 토끼에서 딜티아젬의 약물동태 변화에 대한 결과는 당므과 같다. 1. Alloxan 45 mg/kg을 토끼의 귀정맥에 투여시 혈당농도는 control군에서 $112\pm20.6\;mg/dl$, acute DM군에서는 $260\pm897\;mg/dl$, chronic DM군에서는 $331\pm85\;mg/dl$으로 당뇨가 유발되었음이 확인되었다.. 2. Alloxan에 의한 당뇨병 유발토끼에서 딜티아젬의 혈중농도곡선하면적(AUC)값은 대조군$(21.6\pm2.45\;\mug/ml)$ 보다 chronic DM군$(31.91\pm379\;mg/ml{\cdot}hr)$에서 유의성(p<0.05) 있게 증가하였다. 3. 딜티아젬의 요중누적배설량은 대조군에 비해 acute 및 chronic DM군에서 감소되었으나 유의성은 없었다. 4. 당뇨병 유발 토끼에서 딜티아젬의 토탈바디클리어런스$(CL_t)$ 값과 $\beta$-소실속도정수값이 대조군에 배해서 유의성(p<0.05)있게 감소되었다. 실험적 당뇨 토끼에서 딜티아젬의 생체이용률의 증가는 딜티아젬의 토탈바디클리어런스$(CL_t)$ 값과 베타의 소실속도정수 값이 대조군에 비해서 유의성있게 감소되었기 때문으로 사료된다.

The characteristics of centrifugal pump performance according to fluid viscosity change were studied experimentally. A small volute pump with low specific speed was tested by changing the viscosity of an aqueous solution of sugar and glycerin, which is considered a Newtonian fluid. After finishing the test, the total head, shaft horsepower, and pump efficiency were compared with those of a water pump. The results are summarized as follows: (1) when the fluid viscosity is increased, the shut-off head shows very little change but the total head decreases gradually as the flow increases, and this makes the H-Q curve leaning rapidly, and (2) when the fluid viscosity is increased, the shaft horsepower shows very little change at the shutoff condition; however, the shaft horsepower increases more rapidly with an increase in the flow and viscosity.

Alfalfa field was established to investigate seasonal changes of nodule activity and contents of carbohydrates, and nitrogen, and also to examine their relationships in alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.). Periodical sampling of alfalfa in cutting and uncutting plots was collected to measure growth of plants, development and activity of nodule, and content of carbohydrates and nitrogen in the third year following year of establishment. Nodule activity of alfalfa root appeared to early April, increased to a maximum in beginning of June (flowering stage), and then decreased and generally remained low from late-July to mid-August, and again increased from early September, and then decreased and generally remained low for the rest of growing season. After flowering, nodule weight tended to decrease slowly throughout the growing season. Until flowering stage, increase of dry weight was closely related with that of nodule activity. But after flowering the curve pattern of dry weight did not fit to that of nodule activity due to decrease of supply of assimilate to nodule, drought, and high temperature. Total nonstructural carbohydrates in roots were closely correlated with nodule weight and nodule activity. While, nitrogen contents in leaves were closely correlated with nodule weight and nodule activity. Also cutting on July prevented unnessesary losses of respiration during summer to provide rapid recovery of nodule activity.

In this paper, we propose an image processing based method to measure red-time and green-time backward moving shockwave speed automatically at signalized intersections. Shockwave means the discontinuous boundary line between different vehicle traffic flows, and its moving speed is called shockwave speed which is obtain from the slope of boundary line. In this paper, we compose distance-time diagram for measuring shockwave speed automatically. By global vehicle tracking, we draw all of the vehicle moving path on distance-time diagram. We analyze the slope change pattern of curved moving path line, and compute red-time and green-time backward moving shockwave speed. We obtain the measurement result of shockwave speed, when applying above mentioned proposed method to experiment at signalized intersections, Once we can measure the shockwave speed, we could apply the result to highway ramp metering and automatic signal control at intersections effectively since we know the situation of frontal congestion easily.

Traffic congestion occurs from drivers' human factors such as driver reaction time, reckless lane change, and inexperienced driving. When Automated Vehicles are introduced, human factors are excluded, resulting in increased average vehicle speed, stabilizing traffic flow, and increasing road capacity. This study analyzed traffic flow changes through traffic volume-speed-density plots, and increased road capacity due to Automated Vehicles. As a result of the analysis, when rate of automated vehicles gests higher, the traffic flow became stable. Additionally, it was analyzed that when all vehicles were automated, the road capacity increased by about 120 %. It is expected that there will be a positive expectation in terms of traffic congestion and traffic demand management due to the introduction of Automated Vehicles.

Hot air thin layer drying method was studied for red pepper, Capsicum annum var. longum as the whole and cut pod states, at various temperature and air velocities. Drying curve of whole pod showed a settling down period followed by the first and second falling rate periods. By lowering the drying temperature, the first falling rate period approached to a constant rate one. Cut drying curve had simple falling rate period and also cut drying method could effectively shorten the drying time. Drying rate constant, k, was varied with time for both the drying methods and the plots of k vs. time in two methods sugested the different drying mechanisms. When an average k was taken as a constant value, the following equations; $M-M_e/M_o-M_e=e^{-0.118t}$ and $M-M_e/M_o-M_e=e(-0.342t^{0.128})$ were applicable for whole and cut drying, respectively.
