Identification of paint on victim's clothing and a vehicle are valuable for forensic examination when investigating hit-and-run accidents. Automotive paints on clothes are used to prove a victim caused by traffic accident and to identify a suspected vehicle. The comparison of transferred paints between victim's vehicle and suspected vehicle can be an important evidence in reconstructing the accident situation and in discovering the truth. The paints such as white, yellow, red, blue, or black are hard to examine particle shape under a stereomicroscope because of it is not included aluminum, pearl, and mica flakes in the pigments. The aim of this study under forensic aspect is to compare pigment among basecoat layers of solid paints by identifying inorganic elemental compositions and binder resins of pigments using by micro-FT-IR and micro-XRF spectrometer. The pigment samples were analyzed by using two methods of FT-IR: Reflectance and ATR method. Two methods of FT-IR were useful in discriminating binder resins of pigments by comparing characteristic peaks and patterns of spectra. Also, XRF spectrometer could identify the elemental compositions in inorganic pigments of trace paints which are difficult to compare the identification by FT-IR.

Conformation of soymilk protein was examined to obtain basic information for improved calcium intolerence of soymilk protein partially hydrolyzed with protease. Surface hydrophobicities of three proteins showed the order of SMP(soymilk protein) < SPI(soy protein isolate) < PT-SMP(protease treated soymilk protein). Total thiol group contents of SMP and PT-SMP were similar but larger than that of SPI. Reducing rate of disulfide bond in PT-SMP after 2-mercaptoethanol treatment was laster than that in SMP. And so, this result indicates that PT-SMP may be less compacting due to protease treatement. From circular dichroism result, PT-SMP showed different pattern from SMP and SPI suggesting change of secondary structure by hydrolysis. And analysis of heat denaturating property by DSC showed that denaturation enthalpy of three proteins were all small. Especially enthalpy of PT-SMP was least, and this result suggested that PT-SMP was denatured easily by heating due to less compacting structure.

근육 단백질과 우유 단백질간의 상호작용의 촉매제로써 TGase의 최적화를 위한 온도와 배양시간을 결정하고자 본 실험을 실시하였다. 돼지 등심에서 근원섬유 단백질을 추출하였고 배양온도는 4, $37^{\circ}C$로, 배양시간은 0, 0.5, 2, 4시간으로 설정하였다. 단백질의 열량분석, 점도, 겔 강도, 단백질 밴드의 변화를 측정하였으며, 그 결과 단백질 열량 변화는 각 단백질 별로 열량 변화 패턴이 상이하게 나타났으며 근원섬유와 카제인 염의 혼합액은 각각의 단백질의 피크와 유사하게 나타났고 배양시간과 온도에 따라 차이를 보여 $4^{\circ}C$에 비하여 $37^{\circ}C$에서 열량 변화가 크게 나타났다. 점도의 경우 배양하지 않은 것과 비교했을 때 $37^{\circ}C$에서 2시간 배양했을 때부터 유의적인 차이를 보이며 증가했으나 4시간 배양한 것과는 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 전기영동의 경우에도 $37^{\circ}C$에서 30분 배양한 처리구는 큰 변화를 나타내지 않았으나 2시간부터 저분자의 밴드가 소멸되고 고분자의 biopolymer를 형성되었다.

An attempt to grow high quality GaN on silicon substrate using metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD), herein GaN epitaxial layers were grown on various Si(111) substrates. Thin Platinum layer was deposited on Si(111) substrate using sputtering, followed by thermal annealing to form Pt nano-clusters which act as masking layer during dry-etched with inductively coupled plasma-reactive ion etching to generate nano-patterned Si(111) substrate. In addition, micro-patterned Si(111) substrate with circle shape was also fabricated by using conventional photo-lithography technique. GaN epitaxial layers were subsequently grown on micro-, nano-patterned and conventional Si (111) substrate under identical growth conditions for comparison. The GaN layer grown on nano-patterned Si (111) substrate shows the lowest crack density with mirror-like surface morphology. The FWHM values of XRD rocking curve measured from symmetry (002) and asymmetry (102) planes are 576 arcsec and 828 arcsec, respectively. To corroborate an enhancement of the growth quality, the FWHM value achieved from the photoluminescence spectra also shows the lowest value (46.5 meV) as compare to other grown samples.

In this paper, a method for measuring rhythmic similarity between two sound signals for auditory memory game is proposed. The proposed method analyzes energy fluctuation, the temporal duration of energy peak, the timbre of two signals, and detects beat positions for each signal. Then, it determines the rhythm vector after compensating a difference in tempo and the number of beats between two signals. Finally, a method for rhythmic similarity measurement is defined as a function of the dissimilarity between two rhythm vectors and a difference in the number of beats. The rhythmic similarity measured by the proposed method and that by the subjective listening test are compared, and the correlation of 0.86 between two results is achieved.

The objective of this investigation was to reveal the cause of the faulted cable(LV URD(low voltage underground) cable). For the analysis, various types or equipments such as external pattern, thermal pattern, surface structure, thermal analysis, and property distribution were deployed. The international standards and the specification provided by the manufacturer of faulted cable were examined whether it fit the standards. The summary is as follows. (1) Discovered as a factor lowering insulation performance of the faulted cable: minimum thickness of the insulation layer specified by IEC 60502-1 and IEC 60811-1-1 was not fit. (2) Infrared absorption peaks measured by FT-IR spectrometer revealed that the measurements made for the same material did not conform and it is an important basis for proving heterogeneous composition of the insulation material. (3) It was found that PVC bedding was thermally fragile and therefore long term exposure at the site could cause similar fault pattern.

Research was conducted to investigate germination and establishment characteristics of five fescue species. Alternative conditions of 8-hr light at $25^{\circ}C$ and 16-hr dark at $15^{\circ}C$ were applied. Significant differences were observed in seed germination power, germination speed and germination peak time. Germination power was 62.25% in CRF 'Audubon' to 96.75% in TF 'Olympic Gold'. It was greater with TF over FF, being TF > HF > SF > CF > CRF. Germination speed, measured as days to seed germination of 50% through 80%, was fastest with TF, medium with CF and HF, and slowest with CRF and SF, being TF > CF, HF > CRF, SF. Germination peak time was much faster with TF over FF. It ranged from 0.94 to 1.47 days with TF. But it varied with 2.80 to 12.36 days among FF species. The peak time was longer in order of HF, SF < CF < CRF. Considering germination power, germination speed and germination peak time, TF 'Arid III' was the best cultivar under alternative conditions, while CRF 'Audubon' the poorest. Overall establishment characteristics among Festuca species were even better with TF over FF in order of TF > CF, HF > SF > CRF.
