Conventionally, vertical-seismic-profiling (VSP) survey that provides high-resolution information has mainly performed to obtain the exact depth of the gas hydrate-bearing sediment, which is one of the key factors in the development of the gas hydrate. In this study, we extracted interval velocities and created corridor stacks from the first domestic zero-offset VSP data, which were acquired with three component receivers at UBGH09 borehole in Ulleung Basin where gas hydrate exists. Then we compared the corridor stacks with a CMP stacked section from surface seismic data. First of all, we converted the signals recorded with three component receivers to true vertical and horizontal components by phase rotation, and divided the data into direct waves and reflected waves by wavefield separation processing. The trend of the interval velocity extracted from the zero-offset VSP was similar to that of the sonic log obtained at the same borehole. Because the interval velocity of the gas hydrate-bearing sediment above the BSR was high, and it decreased suddenly through the BSR, we could infer that free gas is accumulated below the BSR. The results of comparing the corridor stacks to the CMP stacked section of the surface seismic data showed that most reflection events agreed well with those in the surface CMP stacked section and that the phase-rotated VSP data corresponded better with the surface seismic data than the VSP data without phase rotation. In addition, by comparing a corridor stack produced from the transverse component with the CMP stacked section of the surface seismic data, we could identify PS mode-converted reflections in the CMP stacked section.

The hydration characteristics of barley kernels with various polishing yields were investigated at temperatures of $20-60^{\circ}C$ and their sorption kinetics were studied. The moisture gain in initial stage of hydration was directly proportional to square root of hydration time and there was a break point at the moisture gain of 0.45-0.55g $H_2O/g$ solid. The hydration rate was great in order of polishing yield of 50, 70, 95, 90 and 100%, and increased with increasing hydration temperature. The diffusivity of water into barley kernels followed Arrhenius equation, and the activation energies in hydration reaction of polished barley were ranged from 6.9 to 9.5 Kcal/mole and that of non-polished one was 11.6Kcal/mole.

진공 시스템의 기저상태를 지배하는 것은 대부분의 경우 용기 내면에 수십 단원자 층 정도로 흡착되어 있는 물이다. 용기 압력이 10-9 mbar 대가 될 때까지는 잔류기체의 90% 이상이 수분이고 압력을 10분의 1로 떨어뜨리려면 10배의 시간이 더 필요하다는 소위 1/t 법칙은 광범위한 흡착에너지를 가지는 물분자의 표면방출 특성으로 잘 설명되어진다. 용기가열 등 적극적인 표면처리를 하지 않고 전형적인 압력변화 양상은 그대로 유지하면서 절대적인 시간을 줄이는 가장 직접적인 방법은 물 배기속도를 가능한 한 높이는 것이지만 대부분의 고진공 펌프들에서 물배기속도만 더 증가하도록 만드는 것은 쉽지 않다. 크라이오 워터펌프(CWP: cryo-water pump)는 바로 이런 고민을 제대로 해결할 수 있는 유일한 실용적인 방안이라고 말할 수 있다. 다른 기체분자들의 배기는 일단 염두에 두지 않고 물배기만을 열심히 해서 배기시간을 단축하고 도달 진공도를 낮추는 것을 목표로 하는 장치가 CWP이다. CWP는 모든 기체에 반응하는 정통적인 크라이오 펌프에 비해 훨씬 간단하고 저렴하게 만들 수 있으면서도 진공 시스템에 큰 영향을 미칠 수 있지만 그동안은 물배기의 필요성에 대한 인식이 미흡하고, 또 부수적이고 추가적인 비용이 드는 것으로 생각되어 주목을 받지 못했지만 디스플레이와 반도체 산업을 필두로 물분압을 낮추고 생산수율을 높이는 것에 점점 더 관심이 높아지면서 CWP에 대한 수요도 높아지고 있다. CWP의 물배기는 아주 단순한 응축현상에 의존하므로 물리적으로 이해하고 성능을 예측하는 것이 직관적이지만 사용용도에 따라 물 이외의 기체분자들은 잘 통과시키면서 물배기는 최대화하는 최적설계가 요구되거나 터보분자펌프(TMP)와 같이 이질적인 고진공펌프와 조합하여 사용하는 경우 기체 온도 의존성을 고려해야 하는 등 까다로운 점이 있다. 본 보고에서는 CWP+TMP로 구성된 복합진공배기시스템을 설계하면서 CWP만의 물배기성능과 복합 시스템의 물 및 알곤 배기성능을 예측하고, 두 펌프의 상호관계에 대해 분석하며, 실제 만들어진 복합배기시스템을 사용하여 실험적으로 구한 물 및 알곤 배기속도 측정결과에 대해서도 간단하게 논의하려고 한다.

In order to compare methods of making a mead and a melomel, changes of alcohol contents, reducing sugar, soluble solids, pH and total acidity during fermentation of a mead and Japanese plum melomel was investigated. Fermentation rate of the melomel were much faster than the mead. Reducing sugar and soluble solids were continuously decreased until the 16th day of fermentation, while alcohol contents were increased continuously during the same period. After fermentation of 21 days, alcohol contents of the mead was reached 7.6%, while that of the Japanese plum melomel reached 12.4%. pH and total acidity were not changed considerably during the whole fermentation period. Clear honey wines with transmittance of 99.4% were obtained by membrane filtration. In conclusion, the method of making melomel using the osmotically extracted fruit juice with honey was found to be more advantageous than the method of making a simple mead.

The effects of drum spacing, steam pressure and drum speed on drying rate of minced fish flesh on both single and double drum dryers were studied. Starch additions in the form of tapioca flour up to 2.5% have been found satisfactory for aiding in sheet formation at the doctor blade. When the retention time was adjusted to maintain a constant product moisture, the highest production rate was obtained at the smallest drum spacing and the highest steam pressure within the limits of experimental conditions considered. The operating conditions suitable for producing the flakes with 5% moisture were: 100 kPa (steam pressure), 0.1 mm (drum spacing) and 3 rpm (drum speed). The production rate and overall heat transfer coefficient under these conditions were $12.1\;kg/m^2$hr and 950 $W\;/m^2K$ respectively. The drying data were fitted well to the conventional drying model, namely $MR\;=\;A\;\exp\;(-k{\theta})$, resulting in the various drying constants depending the operating conditions.

In this study, we estimated the dynamic tensile strength and strain rate from Brazilian tensile test using Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) system. A pulse shaping technique, which controls the shape of the impactinduce incident waves, was used for achieving the dynamic stress equilibrium and constant strain rate before fracture of rock samples. Three kinds of rock type, Inada granite, Kimachi sandstone and Tage tuff were prepared as 50mm in diameter and 26 mm in thickness. The high-speed videography system was used to observe the fracture processes of the rock samples. As the results of the tests, the ratio of dynamic tensile strength and static tensile strength was 11.9 for Inada granite, 8.5 for Kimachi sandstone and 9.2 for Tage tuff.

The spectral-analysis-of-surface-waves (SASW) method is a nondestructive testing method based upon generation and detection of elastic stress waves. SASW is widely used as one of the techniques to determine stiffness profile in engineering geophysics. The essential steps involved are construction of an experimental dispersion curve from data collected in situ, and inversion of the dispersion curve to determine the stiffness profile. The main object of this study is to derive an analytical Jacobian for the inversion. If we set the subsurface to N homogeneous layer, it could save 2N times Jacobian calculation compared to numerical jacobian calculation during inversion. To reconstruct a stiffness profile, constrained damped least square method was applied for the inversion. The algorithm was tested for the numerical data and for the real asphalt and tunnel data, which were able to verify the stiffness profile. The stiffness profile reconstructed by the algorithm showed the possibility to appraise the soundness of tunnel with applications SASW.

Laboratory experiments were conducted for tsunami inundation to an urban area with large building roughness. The waterfront portion of the city of Seaside which is located on the US Pacific Northwest coast, was replicated in 1/50 scale in the wave basin. Tsunami heights and velocities on the inundated land were measured at approximately 31 locations for one incident tsunami heights with an inundation height of approximately 10 m (prototype) near the shoreline. The inundation pattern and speed were more severe and faster in some areas due to the arrangement of the large buildings. Momentum fluxes along the roads were estimated using measure tsunami inundation heights and horizontal fluid velocities. As expected, the maximum momentum flux was near the shoreline and decreased landward. Inundation heights and momentum flux were slowly decreased through the road with buildings on each side. The results from this study showed that the horizontal inundation velocity is an important factor for the external force of coastal structures.

A group of traditional folk medicines obtained from the fruits of Rutaceae plants, such as Ponciri Fructus Immaturus (PFI) from Poncirus trifoliata Raf., Aurantii Fructus Immaturus (AFI) and Aurantii Pericarpium (AP) from Citrus aurantium L., and Aurantii Nobilis Pericarpium (ANP) from Citrus unshiu Marc., has been widely used for improving poor gastrointestinal function in East Asia, including in China and Korea. In the present study, the effects of Rutaceae-fruit-derived folk medicines on gastrointestinal motor function were investigated and compared by measuring in vivo gastric emptying and intestinal transit in mice. Among the aqueous and ethanolic extracts of some Rutaceae-fruit-derived folk medicines, an ethanolic extract of AP (AP-E) significantly accelerated intestinal transit in a dose-dependent manner without affecting gastric emptying. Furthermore, the intestinal transit rate of AP-E was the highest among all extracts examined in this study, including aqueous extracts of PFI, AFI, and ANP, of which the activities of accelerating intestinal transit have been already reported.

Effects of gamma irradiation on brown rice quality were evaluated. Brown rice was irradiated at absorbed dose of 1, 3 or 5 kGy, and ground. Water uptake, pasting properties, and physicochemical characteristics of flour samples were tested. Water uptake rates of irradiated samples were higher than that of control, and were dose-dependent. Hydration capacity decreased in sample irradiated at 5 kGy due to leaching out of soluble compounds, whereas no differences were observed among other irradiated samples and control. Irradiation significantly decreased pasting properties as determined by amylograph. Gamma irradiation accelerated water evaporation at high temperatures (over $300^{\circ}C$) in test of weight-loss profile with thermogravimetric analyzer.
