When a tractor travels slope lands, problems of operator safety and the reduction of job efficiency usually occur. Therefore, maintaining the tractor body being horizontal is critical to improve the security of traveling and the job performance. An experiment was made in a soil bin using the experimental model system built and equipped with a leveling control system. Adaptability of the control system was tested and investigated by analyzing system response in time and frequency domains. Control response time of hydraulic cylinder with 10lpm flow rate on a step input of 10$^{\circ}$slope was about 0.42sec. And it showed a linearly increasing trend without any hunching state. A steady state error of 0.6$^{\circ}$occurred but it was negligible. The hydraulic control system showed a little phase differences within the range of 0.4Hz input frequency. The experimental model showed that implementation of the proposed tractor control system to on slope lands tractor was feasible.

The mechanism of silicon incorporation has been analyzed for the boat-grown GaAs crystals on the basis of phase equilibrium in the Ga and As system. Comparison was made between silicon concentrations calculated from the thermodynamics of incorporation reaction and carrier concentrations measured from van der Pauw method. For the 1-T HB(single temperature zone horizontal Bridgman) crystals, calculated concentrations were 5.3 ×10 15 (atoms/cm3), measured as 9.8 ×10 15(/cm3) at the seed part. They were calculated to be 1.1 ×10 16(atoms/cm3) and measured as 1.5 ×10 16(/cm3) for the 2-T(double temperature zone) HB crystals. On the other hand, it was found to be closer between the calculated and measured silicon concentrations for the VGF(vertical gradient freeze) crystals, which were grown within half the run time compared with 1-T or 2-T HB method.

Rapid palatal expansion(RPE) is a method of inducing the new bone formation in the palate by separation of the midpalatal suture, which can be done conveniently by placing heavy force across the maxillary dental arch. This experiment was undertaken to examine the histologic changes after RPE and during retention period. Four young adult dogs(a control dog, three experimental dogs) aged 4 to 6 months old were used for this experiment. Expansion screw($Hyrax^{\circledR}$, Dentarum Inc.) was delevered to the palate and fumed 180 degrees every morning and evening for 8 days, giving a total expansion of 7.2mm. A control dog was sacrified at the starting point of this study without any treatment and three experimental dogs were sacrified after RPE, 14-day retention, and 28-day retention in each. Thereafter, those samples were observed with hematoxylin-eosin(H-E) stain, ground section(Villanueva stain), alkaline phosphatase(ALP) stain, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase(TRA) stain. The results were as followings: 1. After RPE, collagen fiber bundles were stretched along the midpalatal suture and few osteoblasts were flattened-inactive state and also, a little osteoid tissues was observed. Few multinucleated osteoclasts which had TRAP-positive activity in their cytoplasm were seen in horizontal section, whereas a few osteoclasts were seen in frontal section, especially in the nasal floor side of palatal bone. 2. After 14-day retention, collagen fiber bundles were stretched along the midpalatal suture and few osteoblasts which had ALP-positive activity in their cytoplasm were seen. Few multinucleated osteoclasts which had TRAP-positive activity in their cytoplasm were seen in horizontal section, whereas a few osteoclasts were seen in frontal section, especially in the nasal floor side of palatal bone. 3. After 28-day retention, collagen fiber bundles were arranged like those of control dog and osteoblasts which showed a lot of immature bone formation were cuboidal shape and exhibited ALP-positive activity in their cytoplasm. Few multinucleated osteoclasts which had TRAP-positive activity in their cytoplasm were seen in horizontal section, whereas a few osteoclasts were seen in frontal section, especially in the nasal floor side of palatal bone. According to the above results, the new bone formation after rapid palatal expansion was examined after 14-day retention and significantly increased after 28-day retention.

Viscoelastic characteristics of cured phenolic resin/carbon fiber composite materials were investigated through glass transition and degradation reaction processes in the high temperature region up to $400^{\circ}C$. A typical glass transition of the cross-linked thermoset polymer was followed by irreversible degradation reactions, which were exhibited by the increasing storage modulus and loss modulus peak. A degradation master curve was constructed by using the vertical and horizontal shift factors, both of which complied well with the Arrhenius equation in light of the kinetic expression of degradation rate constants. Using an analogy to the Havriliak-Negami equation in dielectric relaxation phenomena, a viscoelastic modeling methodology was developed to characterize the frequency- and temperature-dependent complex moduli of the degrading thermoset polymer composite systems. The temperature-dependent relaxation time of the degrading composites was determined in a continuous fashion and showed a minimum relaxation time between the glass transition and degradation reaction regions. The capability of the developed modeling methodology was demonstrated by describing the complex behavior of the viscoelastic complex moduli of reacting phenolic resin composite systems.

It has been tried to decrease the crosslink density of vulcanized EPDM (ethylone-propylene-diene terpolymer) rubber through a chemical devulcanization treatment. Phase transfer catalyst, alkali metal (i.e., sodium), and triphenylphosphine have been used as a chemical agent ul the devulcanization treatment. Also it has been estimated the effect of the devulcanization treatment in the case of utilization of 2-butanol as a devulcanization reaction solvent. In the devulcanization treatment using quaternary ammonium salt as a phase transfer catalyst. the devulcanization effect has been studied with the variation of catalyst molecular weight and the choice of bromide or chloride cation. In the devulcanization treatment using sodium, it has been estimated the devulcanization treatment effect depending upon the variation of reaction variables such as amount of sodium used, reaction temperature, pressure of hydrogen gas, which is used as a reaction environment. The $M_c$ value (number average molecular weight between two crosslink points) has been experimentally estimated by the equilibrium swelling method and it is quantitatively related to the crosslink density. The estimation of devulcanization effect for vulcanized EPDM rubber has been carried out by the comparison of the $M_c$ values between the untreated and the treated specimens.

일반적으로 광화학반응에 의해 생성되는 오존은 전구물질(precursor)의 발생지역 뿐만아니라 바람에 따라 수송(transport)되어 오염원이 없는 외곽지역에 영향을 주기도 하는데, 지역적 규모(regional scale)이상의 수평적인 오존 수송을 나타낼 수 있다. 따라서 오존오염은 국지적 현상과 수송에 의한 복합적인 오염현상으로 나타나므로 지리적으로 인접한 수도권지역은 오존 및 전구물질의 유ㆍ출입이 발생하여 서풍일 경우 인천, 서울, 구리, 춘천까지 시간대별로 고농도의 오존이 관측되기도 한다. (중략)

$MoO_3$ powders were reduced to $MoO_2$ under Ar+$H_2$ gas mixture in a tubular furnace at temperature range 723~873 K. Reaction rate was quantitatively deduced by measuring relative humidity of off gas. Observed reaction rate increased significantly with hydrogen partial pressure and reaction temperature and the rate of $H_2O$ evolution increased drastically during the initial period of reduction. As reduction proceeded, however, $H_2O$ partial pressure decreased noticeably. During the initial period of the reduction, a linear relationship for time dependence of the reduction fraction was observed. The activation energy for the reduction of $MoO_3$ to $MoO_2$was 73.56 kJ/mol during the initial period of reduction.

Enzyme-catalyzed polycondensatlon reaction of aliphatic polyesters with several repeating units was studied using the biocatalytic activities of lipases from different sources. Porcine pancreatic lipase (PPL) was found to be best in utilizing bls(2,2,2-trichloroethyl) glutarate and 1,4-butanediol as substrafes. The reaction was also catalyzed to some extent by the lipases from Humicola lanuginos and Psudomonas sp. In the series of short-chain diols(C2-C4), bis(2,2,2-trichloroethyl) glutarate was iransesterified fastest with 1,4-butanediol and for the long-chain diols (PEG-300-PEG-1000), the reaction was fastest with PEG-400. With PEGs, only monoesterification product was obtained. PPL functioned well in relatively hydrophilic organic solvents such as tetrahydrofuran(THF), ether and acetonitrile. The reaction rate was accelerated as the reaction temperature was raised from $20^{\circ}C$ to $60^{\circ}C$ while Mn values of the reaction products were not affected by the reaction temperature. End group analysis by NMR showed that Mn values of the polymer were in the range of 1500-4000 daltons.

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.
