This study was carried out to elucidate residual characteristics of environment friendly agricultural material rotenone in chilli pepper and calculate processing factors by drying. The test material was sprayed twice onto chilli peppers at an interval of seven days and then the chilli peppers were harvested at 0, 1, 3, 5 and 7 days after final spray. Limits of quantitation (LOQs) of rotenone in fresh and dried chilli peppers were 0.03 and 0.07 mg/kg, respectively. Recoveries of the test material in fresh and dried chilli peppers ranged from 89.52 to 97.86% and from 85.76 to 91.61%, respectively. As a results of residual material analysis, amounts of rotenone in fresh and dried chilli peppers ranged from 0.03 to 0.39 mg/kg and from 0.07 to 0.75 mg/kg, respectively, representing that the residual amounts of rotenone decreased time-coursely. Processing factors of rotenone in fresh chilli pepper by drying were found to be from 2.03 to 3.13, indicating that the residual concentration of rotenone in dried chilli pepper increased from two to three times by drying. However, the reduction factor of rotenone in fresh chilli pepper by drying ranged from 0.38 to 0.59, representing that some of rotenone in fresh chilli pepper disappeared during the drying process.

To improve understanding of the physico-chemical characteristics of aerosols in the national park and comparing the air pollution between national park and the urban area nearby national park, the aerosol characterization study was conducted in Bukhansan National Park, Seoul, from July through September 2017. Semi-continuous measurements of $PM_{2.5}$ using PILS (Particle Into Liquid System) coupled with IC (Ion Chromatography) and TOC (Total Organic Carbon) analyzer allowed quantification of concentrations of major ionic species($Cl^-$, $SO_4{^{2-}}$, $NO_3{^-}$, $Na^+$, $NH_4{^+}$, $K^+$, $Mg{^{2+}}$ and $Ca{^{2+}}$) and water soluble organic carbon (WSOC) with 30-minute time resolution. The total mass concentration of $PM_{2.5}$ was measured by T640 (Teledyne) with 5-minute time resolution. The black carbon (BC) and ozone were measured with a minute time resolution. The timeline of aerosol chemical compositions reveals a strong influence from urban area (Seoul) at the site in Bukhansan National Park. Inorganic aerosol composition was observed to be dominated by ammoniated sulfate at most times with ranging from $0.1{\sim}32.6{\mu}g/m^3$ (6.5~76.1% of total mass of $PM_{2.5}$). The concentration of ammonium nitrate, a potential indicator of the presence of local source, ranged from below detection limits to $20{\mu}g/m^3$ and was observed to be highest during times of maximum local urban (Seoul) impact. The total mass of $PM_{2.5}$ in Bukhansan National Park was observed to be 10~23% lower than the total mass of $PM_{2.5}$ in urban area (Gireum-dong and Bulgwang-dong, Seoul). In general, ozone concentration in Bukhansan National Park was observed to be similar or higher than urban sites in Seoul, suggesting additional biogenic VOCs with $NO_x$ from vehicle emission were to be precursors for ozone formation in Bukhansan National Park.

The management system and profitability were compared for the commercial orchards in the apple producing districts from April to October, 2011. The present study reasonably graded a large fruit as a fruit of heavier than 300g for 'Fuji' and 330g for 'Hongro' apples. As comparing cropping density and yield efficiency, 'Fuji' apples showed 3.28 fruits per TCA of crop density and 0.96 kg per TCA of yield efficiency and 'Hongro' demonstrated 4.04 fruits and 1.01 kg. With the application of the results above, the orchard management systems was classified into 3 classes as the orchard for large-size fruits, medium-size fruits, and combined size fruits. The increase of cropping density made the increase of fruit yield with medium-size fruits in unit area but brought about the decrease of large size fruits. The difference in fruit size failed to make significant differences in fruit characteristics. The orchard management system for producing medium size fruits performed decrease in input cost and improved the profitability in orchard management.

The alumina membrane with nano sized pore was prepared from aluminum by anodic oxidation to apply for storage equipment, gas sensor and stamper. The pore size and cell size of the pores are controlled by anodic oxidation voltage. The alumina thickness was controlled by etching process using 0.2M $H_3PO_4$. The thickness of alumina on Si wafer was very accurately controlled by anodic oxidation time. Nickel with nano-sized grain was electroplated on the Au layer on silicon wafer. The fabricated pores on alumina membrane was the thickness of $7{\sim}10{\mu}m$ with straight nano-sized pore of 307${\sim}$120nm. The alumina by the etching process shows smooth surface. The size of Ni grain was 130nm and 250nm for 10mA/$cm^2$and 20mA/$cm^2$of electroplating currents, respectively.

An alumina membrane with nano-sized pores was fabricated by anodic oxidation. The shape and structure of the pore on alumina membrane were changed according to the roughness of aluminum surface. The shape and structure of the nano-sized pre were investigated according to purity of aluminum substrate for the anodization process. The aluminum substrates with 99.5% and 99.999% purities were used. The aluminum substrate(99.5%) was anodized after the processes of pressing, mechanical polishing, chemical polishing, and electrochemical polishing. The nano-sized pores with the pore size of 50 - 100nm, the cell size of 20-50nm and the thickness of $10{\mu}m{\sim}45{\mu}m$ were obtained. Even though the electrochemical polishing was used for the aluminum substrate (99.999%), the same characteristics as the aluminum substrate (99.5%) was obtained. The alumina membrane prepared by anodization for 5 min using fixed voltage method shows the pore with irregular shape. The pore shape was changed to regular shape after pore widening process.

A strategy for the automation of glutamic acid fermentation has been developed by the use of $CO_2$ analyzer together with a controller. It was found that a linear relationship existed between growth and $CO_2$ level in the exit gas. Therefore penicillin addition at an appropriate biomass concentration to excrete glutamate could be achieved automatically. In addition, an automatic batch feeding method (fed-batch culture) provided a means of overcoming substrate inhibition effects on growth and glutamic acid production in batch culture, thereby increasing productivity and product yield.

기존의 협력통신 관련 연구는 주로 단일 송 수신기와 다중 중계기가 존재하는 시스템 상에서 최적의 중계기를 선택하여 협력전송을 하거나 다중 중계기 모두를 이용한 협력통신이 이루어지고 반대로 단일 수신기, 중계기와 다중 송신기가 존재하는 시스템에서 최적의 사용자를 선택하는 것에 관한 것이 대부분 이었다. 하지만 실질적으로 보았을 때는 시스템 전체적인 관점에서 보았을 때 각각의 사용자에 대하여 최선의 중계기를 선택할 경우 오히려 전체적인 시스템 성능은 떨어질 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 다중사용자 협력시스템에서 각각의 사용자들이 자신들의 중계기 역할을 할 사용자를 선택하는 기법에 대하여 알아본다. 각 사용자에 대하여 자신이 중계기 역할을 할 경우 복호및재전송 기법을 이용하여 중계역할을 하고 그렇지 않을 경우 자신의 신호를 재전송한다. 제안된 시스템에서의 각 사용자에 대한 불능확률을 구하고 그것을 기반으로 사용자를 선택하게 된다. 모의실험을 통해 제안된 시스템에서의 사용자 선택 기법들의 성능을 알아보았고 이를 평균 불능확률로 나타내었다. 모의실험 결과 제안된 시스템에서 랜덤선택은 협력통신을 하지 않은 경우보다 안 좋은 성능을 보였고 나머지 기법들의 경우 협력통신을 하지 않은 경우보다 월등히 좋은 성능을 보였다.

This study identifies the damage detection of truss structures by using genetic algorithm(GA) from changed elements properties. To model the damaged truss structures, the modulus of elasticity of some specific elements is reduced. The analysis of truss structures is performed with static analysis by applying uniform load, and the location and extent of structural damage is detected by comparing the stain of each element of healthy truss structures with damaged truss structures using genetic algorithm. In this study, some numerical examples are presented to detect the location and extent of damage using genetic algorithm.
