The effects of germinating types and treatments of acetic acid, water-soluble and water-insoluble chitosan on the germination ratio and sprout length of brown rice were investigated in this study. The treatment of 0.001% acetic acid improved the germination ratio and sprout growth of brown rice in the germinating types of a air-exposure method after water-soaking (Type II) and a repetitive method of water-soaking & air-exposure (Type III), not water-soaking method (Type I). The treatment of water-soluble chitosan with higher concentration caused higher germination ratio and faster sprout growth. The treatment of water-insoluble chitosan repressed the germination and the sprout growth of brown rice. The germination ratios of brown rice germinated by the Type III were higher than those by Type I and Type II for all the treatments of acetic acid and water-soluble & water-insoluble chitosan as more than 97% germination ratio. Also, the Type III method accelerated the sprout growth of brown rice compared with Type I and Type II.

The effect of payload on fuel consumption and emission of light duty freight truck during acceleration driving has been analyzed. Running tests were carried out with various payload conditions on chassis dynamometer. A typical driving pattern for urban cities was used. Real time emission measurement systems for gaseous and soot emission were utilized to investigate the real time dynamic of fuel use and exhaust emissions. It was observed that fuel use and pollutant emissions were increased as payload was increased. Under the same payload condition, the increased amount of acceleration driving is much higher than that of steady state driving. The results demonstrated the advantages of eco-driving, which is an environmentally friendly driving manner, could be emphasized in heavier payload condition. Inertial tractive power was introduced for considering the parameters affecting emission during acceleration driving, which are speed, acceleration and payload. Fuel use and emission in various driving conditions were expressed as functions of inertial tractive power. The estimated result by these functions well predicted measured result within 10 % deviation.

It is very important to remove the noise levels made by an electric home appliance and machines they are located in the auditory region. The noise of ship engine room is known as it is not easy to lower so the working environment of the engine room is the worst condition because the improvement for the noise seemed insignificant and the hearing loss is occurred. As the monitoring equipment and an intelligent control system are improved rapidly the main engine of the ship can be enclosed with an acoustic barrier and any other absorbtion equipment. In this study, the sound absorbtion barrier is experimentally researched by change the volume and the length of the neck for the Helmholtz resonator as the resonator can absorb the noise effectively.

The importance of shape design for strength is highly regarded when applied to thin plate products in Ceramic Injection Molding (CIM), such as cases for electronic goods. This study analyzed the characteristics of the mechanical strength of CIM product by measuring the flexural strength and elastic modulus through a 3-point bending test according to the thickness of a thin plate test piece prepared by CIM. The specimen with a thickness of 0.48mm required a 82.9~94.5N fracture load, whereas a 1.0mm thick test piece required 233.6~345.8N. The increase in thickness by 0.5mm resulted in a 3-fold increase in the fracture load, whereas the elastic modulus decreased by 20%. The thicker the specimen, the lower relative density and surface hardness of the specimen. This is because the thicker the specimen, the lower the powder fraction of the ceramic mixture, and the material properties partially change after sintering.

This paper presents a cloth simulation technique that implements plastic deformation. Plasticity is the property that material does not restore completely to the original state once deformed, in contrast to elasticity. We model cloth using a particle model, and posit two kinds of connections between particles, i.e. the sequential connections between immediate neighbors, and the interlaced connections between every other neighbors. The sequential connections represent the compression and tension of cloth, and the interlaced connections the bending in cloth. The sequential connections are modeled by elastic springs, and the interlaced connections by elastic or plastic spring depending on the amount of the current deformation of the connections. Our model is obtained by adding plastic springs to the existing elastic particle model of cloth. Using the new model, we have been able to simulate bending wrinkles, permanently deformed wrinkles, and small wrinkles widely distributed over cloth. When constructing elastic and plastic spring models for sequential and interlaced connections, we took pain to prevent the stiffness matrix of the whole cloth system from being indefinite, in order to help achieve physical stability of the cloth motion equation and to improve the effectiveness of the numerical method.

The intracellular invertase gene of alkalophilic and thermophilic Bacillus sp. TA-11 which was isolated from compost was cloned and expressed in E. coil HB101 using pUC19 as a vector. The invertase of the recombinant E. coli (pYC 17) was maximally produced when it was incubated at 37$^{\circ}C$ for 9 h in a SY medium containing 0.25% sucrose, 0.5% yeast extract, 0.1% each of $K_2HPO_4$ and $KH_2PO_4$, with an initial pH of 8.0. The final enzyme activity under the above condition was 47.7 U per ml of cell-free extract.

Constructing an ontology using a mass corpus begins with an automatic semantic relation extraction. A general method regards words appearing between terms as patterns which are used to extract semantic relations. However, previous approaches consider only one sentence to extract a pattern, so they cannot extract semantic relations for terms in different sentences. This paper proposes a semantic relation extraction method using pairs of patterns sharing a term, where each pattern is extracted using one of the seed term pair satisfying the target relation. In our experiments, we achieved the accuracy 83.75% improving previous methods by 7.5% in is-${\alpha}$ relation and the accuracy 83.75% improved by 5% in part-of relation. We also present a possibility of improving the recall by the relative recall.

Most of families in Korea keep some medicines that has been expired or not been used for a long time, and these medicines could be causing environmental or social problems. Currently many people concerned about their health and therefore show a tendency to visit many health facilities. It eventually brings to remain more medication in home The aim of this study is to determine the drug waste minimization and drug disposal in Korean home and provide the proper guideline for them. This study were performed by visiting total randomly selected 140 homes at the Seoul area from July 23rd, 2008 to July 31st, 2008 by questionnaire. This survey comprised total 6 parts and total 22 questions. In results, 77 (55.0%) among 140 families answered to this survey. 89.6% of families keep unused medicine in the home. Most were tablet (66.3%) and syrup (19.2%) dosage type. They usually kept the unused medicine in the room (41.6%) or no certain place. 76.6% families reused the medicine and used for themselves. The reason for reuse is similar symptoms by their decision. The reason for medicine was left over is not following the prescription's direction (31.3%). They mostly dispose the unused medications by throwing into a trash can (71.4%). In conclusion, many families keeps unused medication and it could cause health and environmental problems.

This research has examined in depth professional books, advance research, related statistics, and internet data to present security environment changes and countermeasures that may arise due to changes in the domestic hospitality industry. The Hospitality industry characteristics and the trend of change at home and abroad were analyzed. Based on the analysis results, the global hospitality industry has minimized the negative impact of the gambling industry held by casinos through Integrated Resorts, and confirmed that the individual characteristics of various hospitality industries, such as Hotels, MICE, Performances and Shopping, have been developed in such a way that they can exert positive synergy. It has confirmed that South Korea is also trying to revitalize its sluggish economic growth by setting up strategies for industrializing the Integrated Resort and developing the Integrated Resort industry. Based on this, the security environment changes that could occur in individual Integrated Resort companies and the region were expected from five perspectives, and three levels of government/industry/personal response measures were proposed for effective response to changes in the security environment.
