Previously determining the fuel loading pattern is based on the trial and error method. For a candidate pattern, the core analysis is performed and the pattern is examined whether it satisfies the imposed constraints such as the power peaking or not. The pattern, then, is revised by the shuffling of assemblies and the revision is repeated until all of the conditions are met. This method unavoidably requires many iterative diffusion calculations, computing times and accumulated experiences. To overcome these disadvantages, a new method which is called backward diffusion calculation is introduced. If the most desirable power distribution is already known, the optimal loading pattern can be obtained by solving the backward diffusion equation with simple calculation. In this study, the basic equation for the backward diffusion calculation is derived and the optimal power and fuel distributions are searched in one-dimensional cylindrical geometry by using the proposed method. In addition, the basis to determine the optimal power and fuel distributions is suggested for the real core geometry.

In the face of rapidly changing society and consumer cognition, eyer-increasing importance of strategies for creating good images for a company among critical factors inf1uencing management in terms of its survive is prevalent. Today, many companies strive for getting or improving their images with advertisements for corporate identity as well as public advertisements, which is considered as a requirement of this society and age for good images of companies rather for only good products and services. In this study, we analyzed and compared the largest companies in Korea, mainly in their printed materials for advertisements over the last 10 years from 1990. Corporate advertisements performed by domestic companies could be classified into several types based on their theoretical backgrounds and creative concepts. Basic theoretical backgrounds of corporate advertisements induced in the study are recognitive-psychological model and associative learning model. And, six areas of cases were classified and analysed in terms of their such creative concepts as random difference, competitive advantage and specific creativity. We analyzed and compared cases of strategies for domestic corporate advertisements with reference to these six each area in their effects and problems in terms of theoretical and practical aspects and thereby purpose to provide companies with reference in developing strategies for corporate advertisements of companies.

This study was investigated to find out the optimum planting densities of Scutellaria baicalensis GEORGE about growth characters, yield components and yield at 3 planting densities by direct sowing cultivated after barley Stem length was long In dense planting of 20$\times$10cm and short in spacious planting of 30$\times$10cm and 40$\times$10cm by direct sowing cultivated after barley. Stem diameter was thick in spacious planting of 30$\times$10cm and 40$\times$10cm and was thin in dense planting of 20$\times$cm by direct sewing cultivated after barley. Length and dry weight of root per plant were decreased in dense planting of 20$\times$10cm and were increased in spacious planting of 30$\times$10cm and 40$\times$10cm by direct sowing cultivated after barley. Yield of dry root was highest in optimum planting density(30$\times$10cm:33 plants/$m^2$) by direct sowing cultivated after barley. The correlation coefficient between number of planting plant and stem length showed highly positive correlation. These characters of stem diameter, number of branches, main root length and yield of dry root mentioned above showed negative correlations with planting plants.

A static headspace gas chromatographic (HSGC) technique was used to quantify toluene and other solvents (methanol, isopropyl alcohol, methyl ethyl ketone and ethyl acetate) in food packaging films. Comparison of retention times and coefficient variations for standard solvents showed consistent retention time and good reproducibility. Therefore, this method using static HSGC proved to be superior in rapidity and reproducibility, and is thought to be adaptable to analysis of a large number of samples. The methanol content was $N.D.\;(not\;detected){\sim}0.939\;mg/m^2$, toluene $N.D.{\sim}1.403\;mg/m^2$, melthyl ethyl ketone $N.D.{\sim}0.932\;mg/m^2$, total solvent content was $N.D.{\sim}2.433\;mg/m^2$.

An attempt was made to analyze preservatives in flavor-containing curry and tomato ketchup without interference due to their of flavor components. Samples were steam-distillated and extracted with ether. Sorbic acid, benzoic acid, dehydroacetic acid and salicylic acid were analyzed by GC with capillary column. Benzoic acid and dehydroacetic acid in curry were interfered by flavor components, but there was no interference in case of tomato ketchup. Samples were pretreated with Sep-Pak $C_{18}$ cartridge and analyzed with HPLC to avoid any interference due to flavor components. The recoveries by HPLC were higher than those by GC. Recoveries of sorbic acid, benzoic acid and salicylic acid from curry were 79.9%, 71.2% and 64.4%, respectively. Recoveries of sorbic acid, benzoic acid and salicylic acid from tomato ketchup were 83.4%, 87.8% and 77.7%, respectively.

Our objective was to evaluate the potential of near-infrared reflectance spectroscopy to determine the salt content of mayonnaise. The calibration equation for salt developed using partial least square regression was compared with conventional method. 100 samples for calibration set and 40 samples for validation set were used. The multiple correlation coefficient was 0.946 and standard error of prediction was 0.017, when calibration equation was applied to validation set. Near-infrared reflectance spectroscopy method for determining salt content of mayonnaise appears quite satisfactory to evaluate nondestructively.

This study was performed to analyze GHG (Greenhouse gas) reduction effectiveness and economic feasibility in the wood pellet fuel switching project using JCDM (Japan Clean Development Mechanism) and KVER (Korea Voluntary Emission Reduction)data. The major data for the analyses consist of investment costs, annual GHG reductions, fuel prices and GHG credit prices. The wood pellet fuel switching projects are the $CO_2$-zero projects. Therefore, these projects are essential to accomplish the GHG mitigation target, especially in Korea. In order to raise the economic feasibility of the wood pellet fuel switching project, the results of this study suggest that the Korean government should reduce the price of wood pellet through the supply on a large scale and raise the KCER price of wood pellet fuel switching project.

The paper is basically attempted to reveal a mechanism of exchange rate determination in global foreign exchange markets. For a theoretical framework, uncovered interest rate parity(UIRP), covered interest rate parity(CIRP), and real interest rate parity(RIRP) are tentatively adapted, and GARCH-M model is employed for an econometric methodology. Empirical evidence shows that the UIRP is superior to others, and the RIRP is better than the CIRP in explaining how exchange rates are determined in global exchange markets. All of them, however, is not fully supported by economic theories. Following Frankel(1989), country premium, volatility premium, and currency premium are evaluated to see if which premium is a crucial in disturbing the RIRP, and it is found that country and currency premiums are a major components in disturbing the RIRP. To this end, market-oriented and market-determined systems has to be built to avoid currency disputes which is undergoing hot issue in global foreign exchange market.

We study the cost of capital of Islamic enterprise using the Capital Asset Pricing Model(CAPM). When there exists no risk-free interest rate, the security market line(SML) of Islamic enterprise shows an upward slope starting from the origin. The slope is bigger than that of SML with risk-free interest rate. This is because the cost of capital of Islamic enterprise is higher than that of western firms for the same level of systematic risk. When the effect of zakat is considered, the risk-free interest rate is replaced by minimum required rate of return. The SML of Islamic enterprise reveals an upward slope but it does not pass through the origin. This is because Islamic enterprise cannot invest on risk-free asset. In order to overcome the theoretic limits of CAPM, we propose to use multi-factor approach such as arbitrage pricing model instead of single-factor model for future study.
