The curing process is the final step in tire manufacturing whereby a green tire built from layers of rubber compounds is formed to the desired shape and the compounds are converted to a strong, elastic materials to meet tire performance needs under elevated pressure and temperature in a press. A numerical optimization procedure was developed to improve product quality in a tire curing process. First, a dynamic constrained optimization problem was formulated to determine the optimal condition of the supplied cure media during a curing process. The objective function is subject to an equality constraint representing the process model that describes the heat transfer and cures kinetic phenomena in a cure press and is subject to inequality constraints representing temperature limits imposed on cure media. Then, the optimization problem was solved to determine optimal condition of the supplied cure media for a tire using the complex algorithm along with a finite element model solver.

Plasma oscillation has been observed during the development of the glow discharge as detector for gas chromatography. The variation of oscillation frequency shows the better stability and detection limits than the changes in the dischange curent. To investigate the range of useful operating conditions and to gain insight into the mechanism, the effect of experimental parameters on plasma oscillation have been studied. This study includes the variation of discharge current, pressure and discharge gap. Frequency ranges of 10KHz to 10MHz have been observed with the various shapes of oscillation. Two kinds of mode for oscillation are observed with the variation of electrode gap at low pressure and low voltage.

반도체 및 디스플레이 소자 제조를 위한 진공 플라즈마는 다양한 공정 조건하에서 다양한 공정 가스의 물리화학적 반응에 의한 박막의 형석 및 식각 반응을 유도한다. 실 공정 하에서 기체 성분의 환경 조건에 의하여 박막층 및 식각 구조 형성에 심각한 영향이 발생할 수 있으며, 공정 조건에서 기체 압력을 완벽하게 컨트롤 하는 것은 현실상 불가능하므로 기체 부분압력이 실시간으로 반드시 모니터링 되고 이를 피드백으로 하여 압력 변수가 조정되어야 완벽하게 공정을 제어할 수 있다. 이를 위하여 현장에서 플라즈마 공정을 실시간 in-situ 모니터링 할 수 있는 다양한 진단 방법이 도입되고 있으며 접촉신 진단 방법은 플라즈마와 섭동으로 인한 교란을 유발하고, 이온에너지 측정의 한계가 존재하며 비접촉식 방법 중의 하나인 유도형광법(LIF)은 측정 물질의 제한으로 인하여 플라즈마 내에 존재하는 다양한 가스 종의 거동을 살필 수 없는 등 현실 적용 측면에서 실 공정에 적용하는데 단점이 존재한다. 공정 상태 및 RF에 의한 영향을 주고받지 않고, 민감한 공정 변화의 감지 및 혼합가스를 사용하는 실시간 공정 진단을 위하여 비접촉 광학 측정 방식인 발광 분광 분석법(optical emission spectroscopy, OES)이 각광받고 있으며, 본 강습에서는 분광학의 기본 개념 및 OES를 이용한 진공 플라즈마 진단 방법에 관한 전반적인 개요를 설명하도록 한다

The rose petal tissue biosensor has been constructed by immobilizing New carina rose tissue. Optimum conditions for the determination of urea were investigated using this sensor. Selectivity and life time of this sensor were also obtained. As a result, the biosensor showed the optimum response characteristics in 0.20M phosphate buffer solution at pH 8.0, $37^{\circ}C$ and 50mg of tissue amounts. This sensor was linear from $9.0{\times}10^{-5}$ to $4.0{\times}10^{-3}M$ urea with a slope of 42mV/decade. The limit of detection and response time are $7.0{\times}10^{-5}M$ and 17~19 min.

This paper dealt with the local buckling of H-beams investigated mainly using the parameters of load ratios. load conditions, and support boundary condition considering predicted uniformly elevated temperatures. The physical properties of the material at elevated temperatures followed EC3 Park 1.2. The local buckling of the plates in steel beams show that they are governed by the yield stress or the critical stress of the steel plates according to the ratios of b/tf, d/tw. The evaluation of uniformly heated steel beams on the local buckling considered the stress and moment ratios to the LRFD.

A simple prepared paste electrode (PE) of DNA immobilized on a carbon nanotube was utilized for monitoring the antibacterial agent oxytetracycline (OTC), using square-wave anodic stripping voltammetry (SWASV) and cyclic voltammetry (CV). Given these conditions, SWASV and CV working ranges were observed within 1-10 ngL-1 OTC. In the SWASV and CV for OTC concentrations of 0.1 mgL-1, the relative standard deviations (n=15) were 0.068 and 0.067, respectively. At the optimized condition, the detection limit was found to be 0.4 ngL-1 OTC. This method was applied to the hatchery fish tissue.

Multi-level Multi-objective optimization(MLMO) for reinforced concrete framed structure is performed, and compared with the results of single-level single-objective optimization. MLMO method allows flexibility to meet the design needs such as deflection and cost of structures using weighting factors. Using Multi-level formulation, the numbers of constraints and variables are reduced at each levels, and the optimization formulation becomes simplified. The force approximation method is used to reflect the variation in design variables between the substructures, and thus coupling is maintained. And the linear approximated constraints and objective function are used to reduce the number of structural analysis in optimization process. It is shown that the developed algorithm with move limit can converge effectively to optimal solution.

Voltammetric analysis of Cl(I) ion was performed using a metal gold (Au) electrode (AE) and a carbon nanotube electrode (CNTE). After the examination, the AE was found to have more sensitively detected Cl(I) than CNTE. The optimum analytical conditions for the cyclic voltammetry (CV) and the square wave (SW) stripping voltammetry were performed using AE. The detection limit of $6.5\;{\mu}g/L$ Cl(I) was attained. The developed techniques were compared with the common Cl meter and applied to water systems.

Simultaneous determination of mercury and arsenic has been studied by reductive vapor generation-ICP-AES. Samples were digested with a microwave digestion system and extracted with acids. Reductive vapor generation was carried out with 6N HCI and 2% $NaBH_4$. Detection limit of Hg and As are found to be 0.06 ppb and 0.08 ppb, respectively. Measured values of Hg and As in inorganic samples agree well with reference value of SRMs, but the recovery of As from organic samples is obtained approximately 80% of the reference values.
