In order to develop a commercial storage method of onions by irradiation combined with natural low temperature, two local varieties of onions, precocious species and late ripening, were stored at natural low temperature storage room ($450{\times}650{\times}250cmH.$; year-round temperature change, $2{\sim}17^{\circ}C$; R.H., $80{\sim}85%$) on batch scale following irradiation with optimum dose level. Precocious and late varieties were all sprouted after five to seven months storage, whereas $10{\sim}15$ Krad irradiated precocious variety was $2{\sim}4%$ sprouted after nine months storage, but sprouting was completly inhibited at the same dose for late variety. The extent of loss due to rot attack after ten months storage were $23{\sim}49%$ in both control and irradiated group of precocious variety but those of late variety were only $4{\sim}10%$. The weight loss of irradiated precocious variety after ten months storage was $13{\sim}16$, while that of late variety was $5.3{\sim}5.9%$ after nine months storage. The moisture content, during whole storage period, of two varieties were $90{\sim}93$ with negligible changes. The total sugar content differed little with varieties and doses immediatly after irradiation, but decreased by the elapse of storage period. 33.6% of its content was decreased in control and 12.5% in irradiated group but $20{\sim}26$ decreased in both control and irradiated group of late variety after nine months storage. No appreciable change was observed immediately after irradiation irrespective of variety and dose, but decreased slightly with storage. Ascorbic acid content of precocious variety was increased slightly with dose immediately after irradiation, but those of late variety decreased slightly. Ascorbic acid content were generally decreased during whole storage period. An economical preservation method of onions appliable to late variety, would be to irradiate onion bulbs at dost range of $10{\sim}15$ Krad followed by storage at natural low temperature storage room.

To investigate the effect of polyethylene film packaging and $CO_2$ treatment on tomatoes during storage, the gas composition in film, weight loss, the changes of color, hardness and several components were measured. The concentrations of $CO_2$ and $O_2$ in film were changed rapidly in early stage, but it kept a constant level after 7 days of storage. In 0.06 mm polyethylene film, $CO_2$ and $O_2$ concentration was kept a level of $4{\sim}6%$ respectively. The increase in $C_2H_2$ concentration was delayed in thick and $CO_2$ treated film. The rate of weight loss was 4% in non-packed tomatoes, but it recorded about 1% in 0.06 mm polyethylene film. Titratable acidity, pH and soluble solids were changed slightly, but the obvious differents were not observed according to film thickness and $CO_2$ treatment. The value of tomatoes was increased but L and b values were not changed greatly during storage. These color changes were restricted by 0.06 mm film and $CO_2$ treatment. The firmness and content of ascorbic acid were reduced during storage but it restrained by $CO_2$ treatment and film packaging. Sugar of tomatoes were composed of glucose, fructose and a very small amount of sucrose, and they were changed little during storage.

1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate known as efficient biomass pretreatment reagent was used for the extraction of lignin from rigida pine wood (pitch pine), which was called to ionic liquid lignin (ILL), and chemical structural features of ILL were compared with the corresponding milled wood lignin (MWL). The amounts of phenolic hydroxyl groups (Phe-OH) was determined to 10.0% for ILL and 7.2% for MWL, respectively, where those of methoxyl groups (OMe) were 4.9% for ILL and 11.0% for MWL, respectively. The weight average molecular weight (Mw) of ILL (3,995) were determined to ca. 1/2 of that of MWL (8,438) and polydispersity index (PDI: Mw/Mn) suggested that the lignin fragments were more uniform in the ILL (PDI 1.36) than in the MWL (PDI 2.64). The temperature (Tm) corresponding to maximum decomposition rate (Vm) of ILL ($306.6^{\circ}C$) was ca. $35^{\circ}C$ lower than that of MWL ($341.9^{\circ}C$), suggesting that ILL was thermally unstable than MWL, as evidence from the lower Tm for ILL. Moreover, the structural characteristics of ILL and MWL were confirmed by spectroscopic analyses (FT-IR and $^{13}C$-NMR), and these results indicated ionic liquid (1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate) was chemically or physically bound to ILL.

The effect of packaging material in enhancing the shelf life and maintaining the postharvest quality of endive (Cichorium endivia L.) was studied. Endive were packed in three packaging materials: paper box (control); paper box with endive wrapped in high density polyethylene (HDPE) film; and plastic box container covered with high density polyethylene (HDPE) film. The quality characteristics, such as fresh weight loss, soil plant analysis development (SPAD) value, and appearance of endive were investigated during 20 days of storage at $2^{\circ}C$. The endive wrapped with HDPE film inside the paper box showed the lowest weight loss, highest SPAD value and the best appearance compared to those wrapped in other packaging types during storage. The results indicate that the marketability of endive can be optimized with proper packaging and storage.

The use of high-strength aluminum alloys for ships and of shore structures has many benefits compared to carbon steels. Recently, high-strength aluminum alloys have been widely used in onshore and of shore industries, and they are widely used for the side shell structures of special-purpose ships. Their use in box girders of bridge structures and in the topside of fixed platforms is also becoming more widespread. Use of aluminum material can reduce fuel consumption by reducing the weight of the composite material through a weight composition ratio of 1/3 compared to carbon steel. The characteristics of the stress strain relationship of an aluminum structure are quite different from those of a steel structure, because of the influence of the welding[process heat affected zone (HAZ). The HAZ of aluminum is much wider than that of steel owing to its higher heat conductivity. In this study, by considering the HAZ generated by metal insert gas (MIG) welding, the buckling and final strength characteristics of an aluminum reinforcing plate against longitudinal compression loads were analyzed. MIG welding reduces both the buckling and ultimate strength, and the energy dissipation rate after initial yielding is high in the range of the HAZ being 15 mm, and then the difference is small when HAZ being 25 mm or more. Therefore, it is important to review and analyze the influence of the HAZ to estimate the structural behavior of the stiffened plate to which the aluminum alloy material is applied.

This study was conducted to investigate the soil mulching effect on growth and yield of Atractylodes macrocephala Koidz. The number of stem, stem diameter, and fresh weight of aerial part in black poly-ethylene film and transparent poly-ethylene film mulched condition were higher than those of non-mulching and rice-straw mulching. Number of flowers were high in the order of non-mulching, rice-straw, trans-P. E. film, and black P. E. film. Yield of underground part was higher in mulching condition than that of non-mulching. Dry rhizome yield in black P. E. film mulching was significantly high to compare with the other treatments. There was lower disease incidence of Phytophthora blight in trans-P. E and black P. E. film compare with the other treatments but any difference was not observed in essential oil content of rhizome. Significant positive correlation was found between rhizome weight and fresh weight of aerial part. It was also shown that the fresh weight of aerial part was greatly dependent on the number of stems and stem diameter.

This paper presents an investigation of the mechanical and microstructural properties on hardened samples that were synthesized using blended binder(fly ash(FA) and blast furnace slag cement(BFSC)), alkali activator and sea water or distilled water. Binders were prepared by mixing the FA and BFSC in different blend weight ratios of 6:4, 7:3 and 8:2. Sodium hydroxide and sodium silicate were used 5 wt% of binder, respectively, as an alkaline activator. The compressive strength and absorption were measured at the age of 3, 7 and 28 days, and the XRD, TGA and MIP tests were performed at the age of 28 days. An increase in the content of BFSC leads to an increase in the quantities of ettringite and C-S-H formed, regardless of the type of mixing water. And it also shows higher strength due to the reduction of pores larger than ~50 nm. All hardened samples in this study have common hydration products of C-S-H, $Ca(OH)_2$ and calcite. Hydrocalumite of all reaction products formed was only present in hardened sample mixed with sea water. For each FA/BFSC mixing ratio, the compressive strength of hardened sample mixed with sea water was similar to that mixed with distilled water. It is proposed that the slight increase of strength of samples mixed with sea water is mainly due to the presence of hydrocalumite phase containing chlorine ion, contributing to the change of total porosity and pore size distribution in samples.

In order to improve the dimensional stability and durability of wood, this study attempted to impregnate bismuth (Bi) - tin (Sn) alloy metal with low melting temperature into solid woods of three species such as radiata pine, red oak and white oak, and investigated to determine an optimum condition of manufacturing the metal alloy-wood composites with natural wood grains. These Bi-Sn alloys were chosen for this study because they were harmless to human and melting at low temperatures. The composites resulted in high dimensional stability and low thickness swelling, and also showed much improved performance such as high bending strength, high hardness, high electric conductivity, and high thermal conductivity as floor materials. A proper impregnating condition of all specimens was determined as 10 minutes of the preliminary vacuum time, and $185^{\circ}C$ of the heating temperature. The proper processing condition for radiata pine wood was 2.5 minutes of the pressuring time at the pressure of $10kgf/cm^2$. For red oak wood, 10 minutes of the pressuring time at the pressure of $30kgf/cm^2$ were the proper condition. The proper manufacture conditions for white oak wood was determined as 10 minutes of the pressuring time at the pressure of $50kgf/cm^2$.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of minimum night temperature in the PE house on growth of seedlings of Pinus densiflora and Betula platyphylla in winter season. The experiment was performed with three minimum night temperature regimes,5~8$^{\circ}C$, 10~13$^{\circ}C$ and 15~18$^{\circ}C$. The temperature regimes were maintained for 8 weeks (to April 6) after germination peak, and then were broken by increasing natural temperature. The temperature did not affect the germination rate but delayed the germination by 10 days. Height, root collar diameter growth, and dry weight of two species were reduced by relatively low night temperature. The reduction was more obvious in the dry weight of above the ground measured at 8 weeks after germination. The seedlings grown for 8 weeks at 5~8$^{\circ}C$ showed the lowest T/R ratio. It was also observed that the height growth response in Betula platyphylla seedlings to relatively low temperature was more sensitive than Pinus densiflora.

과학기술 및 산업의 발달로 인하여 실험 중 또는 공정 상에서 in situ, 실시간으로 측정하고 분석하며 이를 되먹임하는 품질제어의 중요성이 대두되고 있다. 반도체 공정 또는 박막제조 공정 중에서 박막의 두께, 굴절율, 물질의 조성비 등을 알아내는 것이 긴요한 과제로 대두되고 있으며, 이를 위하여 공정중인 제품의 품질을 실시간으로 평가하는 장비가 요구되고 있는 것이다. 나아가 공정중의 예상하지 못한 시료의 특성변화를 그대로 감지하여 적절히 보정해 주는 되먹임 기법은 높은 수율을 보장하는 첨단기법이라 할 수 있다. 이러한요구에 부응할 수 있는 본 제품(Elli-situ 2000)은 박막의 두께 표면변화를 sub 의 정밀도를 가지고 in situ, 실시간으로 정밀 측정할 수 있는 첨단 계측장비로서 빛의 편광상태 변화를 측정하기 때문에 공정 중의 시료에 영향을 주지 않는 비간섭 특성과 비접촉 특성의 장점 뿐만 아니라 공기중에서는 물론 진공이나 액체 등의 매질에서도 사용될 수 있어서 매질에 대한 제약이 거의 없다는 장점도 가지고 있다. 편광상태의 제어 및 측정을 필요한 광학장비의 경우, 제작이 까다롭기 때문에 대부분 가격이 높은 편이고 사용방법이나 측정 데이터에 대한 해석이 어렵다는 단점이 있으나, Elli-situ 2000의 경우 상용화된 외국제품(국내제품은 없슴)과 비교하여 성능 및 가격경쟁력에 있어서도 우위에 있으며 간단, 명료한 장비조작 및 컴퓨터를 사용한 구동의 전자동화를 이룸으로써 초보자도 쉽게 측정하고 데이터를 처리할 수 있도록 하였다. 또한 취부대의 경우, 진공포트 플랜지의 표준규격(2-3" Del-Seal 플랜지 규격)에 맞춤으로써 기존의 진공챔버에 부착하여 진공에 전혀 영향을 주지 않는 상태에서 시료의 변화를 in situ, 실시간으로 정밀 측정할 수 있도록 하였다. 하였다.O 박막은 산소 가스압력과 기판온도, 인가 전류를 변화시켜가며 증착하였으며 이에 따른 박막의 결정성 변화를 알아보았다. 기판온도를 실온에서 점차 증가시켜나가면 $\Delta$$\theta$50은 급격히 감소하며 30$0^{\circ}C$에서는 결정성이 우수한 막을 얻을 수 있었다. 또한 산소 가스 압력이 0.5~1mTorr에서 $\Delta$$\theta$50은 양호한 값을 나타내었지만 그 이상에서는 c-축 배향성이 나빠짐을 확인하였다. 따라서 대향타겟식스퍼터 장치를 이용하여 ZnO 박막을 증착시 가스압력 0.5~1mTorr, 기판온도 20$0^{\circ}C$이상의 막 제작조건에서 결정성이 우수하게 나타나는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. gluten이 단단해졌음을 알수 있었다. 유화제 stearly 칼슘, 혹은 hemicellulase를 amarans 10% 대체한 밀가루에 첨가하면 확연히 비용적을 증대시킬 수 있다는 사실을 알 수 있었다. quinoa는 명아주과 Chenopodium에 속하고 페루, 볼리비아 등의 고산지에서 재배 되어지는 것을 시료로 사용하였다. quinoa 분말은 중량의 5-20%을 quinoa를 대체하고 더욱이 분말중량에 대하여 0-200ppm의 lipase를 lipid(밀가루의 2-3배)에 대하여 품질개량제로서 이용했다. 그 결과 quinoa 대량 7.5%에서 비용적, gas cell이 가장 긍정적 결과를 산출했고 반죽의 조직구조가 강화되었다. 또 quinoa 대체에 의해 전분-지질 복합제의 흡열량이 증대된 것으로부터 전분-지질복합제의 형성 촉진이 시사되었다.이것으로 인하여 호화억제에 의한 노화 방지효과가 기대되었지만 실제로 빵의 노화는 현저히 진행되었다. 이것은
