Chitosan was prepared from red snow crab (Chinonecetes japonicus) under various conditions of deacetylation (NaOH concentration, heating temperature, heating time and intermittent and repetition treatment). By measuring the degree of deacetylation and the molecular weight (Mw), effect of preparation condition was studied. As the concentration of NaOH increased in deacetylation process, for chitosan treated over $40\%$ NaOH, the rate of increase of the deacetylation of chitosan decreased, but the difference of Mw decrease was nearly constant. When treatment temperature increased from $130^{\circ}C$ to $150^{\circ}C$, the deacetylation degree increased only $3^{\circ}C\;from\;84\%\;to\;87\%,$ but Mw decreased from 267,000 to 85,800. The difference of Mw decrease of chitosan treated $130-150^{\circ}C$ was larger than that with $90-130^{\circ}C$. The deacetylation degree and Mw of the chitosan prepared by continuous treatment for 3 hrs was$84\%$ and 267,000. On the other hand those of chitosan with intermittent and repetition treatment for 3hrs was $93\%$ and 28,000. In order to increase the degree of deacetylation and inhibit depolymerizing, the intermittent and repetition treatment was found to be more effective than the continuous treatment.

One hundred rice varieties were tested for their level of resistance to sheath blight disease at adult plant stage in field condition through 1984 to 1986. Rice plants were grown under ordinary seasonal culture and inoculated by k-2 fungus isolate during three years. k -1 isolate was also inoculated separately in 1984 and test under late seasonal culture was conducted in separate field in 1985. Degree of damage by the disease observed at 25 days after heading was used to identify the level of resistance of the rice varieties tested. Varietal differences of degree of damage were significant in five tests during three years, and the genotypic variance of degree of damage was always higher than environmental variance among varieties tested. Positive correlations between testing years, between cultural seasons, and between isolates inoculated were found in degree of damage of varieties tested for two or three years continuously. Degree of damage by the disease was correlated negatively with heading date of rice varieties except 1984 tests. Thus, the level of resistance should be compared among the variety group having almost same heading date in field condition, and late and extremely late variety groups should be tested for their level of resistance under appropriate environmental condition. Gayabyo, an early heading variety, and SR9713-54-3, a medium heading breeding line, showed consistent lower value of degree of damage during two or three years. These two varieties were selected as moderate resistant germplasm.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the actual condition of consciousness that the students in Dept. of dental hygiene who will be engaged in dental hygiene at a dental office in the future have about a clinical training, to see whether there is any difference between the results, and then to provide fundamental data which can be helpful to develop more effective clinical training programs. For this, we investigated consciousness, that 114 daytime school students and evening school students(76 daytime school students and 38 evening school students) in Dept. of dental hygiene in J college have, using questionnaires on clinical training with Self-Administrated Method. SPSS 12.0 for Windows was used to analyze all of the questionnaires, and the results analyzed at meaningful level a=.05 are like followings: 1. The degree of satisfaction on clinical training was high as average 3.30 ; it was high in case of night training as 3.34, and of a dental office in a general hospital and an university hospital as 3.83. The degree of stress caused by clinical training was high as average 3.30, and it means that they are under relatively heavy pressure ; it was shown they got the most heavy stress as 3.39 at night, as 3.68 at a dental clinic 2. The students showed the highest tendency to recognize that clinical training is needed "for learning various clinical case experiences" as average 3.54 ; the students trained at daytime showed the highest average 3.55, and at a clinical hospital, the highest average 3.64. 3. In the study on an actual condition of consciousness about clinical training according to class difference by time(at day time and at night), there is meaningful difference between two kinds of class ; the students trained at day time showed average 2.68 that they don't like to attend, on the other hand the students at night showed higher average 2.84(p<.05). In the study on an actual condition of consciousness about clinical training according to the institutions they are trained, there is meaningful difference at satisfaction on learning method and amount of assignment : they show the highest degree of satisfaction on the learning method in case of working at a dental office in a general hospital and an university hospital as average 3.3(p<.0.1) ; the amount of assignment was shown most high at a dental clinic and a dental office in a general hospital and an university hospital as average 3.00 each(p<.05). 4. In the study of the degree of satisfaction on the clinical training, it has relatively high connections with learning contents(r=.656), learning methods(r=.497), special lessons and supplementary lessons(r=.472), the case they don't like attend at work (r=-.439), discriminatory treatment(r=-.25l), respectability on the senior dental hygienists(r=.464), a social status of a dental hygienist(r=.213), the degree of satisfaction from the relationship with other dental hygienists(r=.274), the degree of understanding which clinical training institutions have on the trained students(r=.494), trainers' ability to teach the students(r=.499). enthusiasm on guiding (r=.523), the amount of assignment(r=.333). 5.

The present study was designed to investigate the effect of the difficulty level of retrieval practice and the association strength of categories and stimuli within categories on memory inhibition. Most of the studies have investigated whether inhibition was occurred by manipulating the degree of association strength, emotion value or physical characteristics of non-retrieval practice words within the retrieval practice category. Therefore, it was necessary to study how inhibition occurs according to the degree of difficulty of retrieval stimuli during retrieval practice. The difficulty of retrieval was manipulated into three levels: difficult condition, normal condition, and easy condition through the degree of presentation of consonants and vowels of words during retrieval learning. Additionally, the strength of association between categories and words within categories was manipulated. In previous studies, retrieval-induced forgetting occurred under conditions where the association strength between categories and words within the categories was strong. On the other hand, retrieval-induced forgetting did not occur under conditions where the association strength between categories and words within the categories was weak. The present study, if the inhibition process differs according to the difficulty of retrieval, the possibility of different results from previous studies was explored according to the difference in the strength of association with the category. As a result of the study, in the condition of strong association strength, retrieval-induced forgetting was observed under normal and difficult retrieval difficulty conditions. Whereas retrieval-induced forgetting was not observed under conditions of easy retrieval difficulty condition. In the condition of weak association strength, retrieval-induced forgetting tended to occur under difficult retrieval difficulty conditions. Whereas retrieval-induced forgetting was not observed under conditions of normal and easy retrieval difficulty condition. These results suggest that memory inhibition may appear differently depending on the difficulty of retrieval.

Safety operation of main pipelines is primarily provided by anticorrosive monitoring. Anticorrosive monitoring of oil pipeline transportation objects is based on results of complex corrosion inspections, analysis of basic data including design data, definition of a corrosion residual rate and diagnostic of general equipment's technical condition. All the abovementioned arrangements are regulated by normative documents. For diagnostics of corrosion-technical condition of oil pipeline transportation objects one presently uses different methods such as in-line inspection using devices with ultrasonic, magnetic or another detector, acoustic-emission diagnostics, electrometric survey, general external corrosion diagnostics and cameral processing of obtained data. Results of a complex of diagnostics give a possibility: $\cdot$ to arrange a pipeline's sectors according to a degree of corrosion danger; $\cdot$ to check up true condition of pipeline's metal; $\cdot$ to estimate technical condition and working ability of a system of anticorrosive protection. However such a control of corrosion technical condition of a main pipeline creates the appearance of estimation of a true degree of protection of an object if values of protective potential with resistive component are taken into consideration only. So in addition to corrosive technical diagnostics one must define a true residual corrosion rate taking into account protective action of electrochemical protection and true protection of a pipeline one must at times. Realized anticorrosive monitoring enables to take a reasonable decision about further operation of objects according to objects' residual life, variation of operation parameters, repair and dismantlement of objects.

This paper presents a multiple degree-of-freedom (dof) energy bounding approach (EBA) to enhance directional transparency while guaranteeing stability for multiple-dof haptic interaction. It was observed that the passivity condition for multiple ports may lead to some oscillatory limit cycle behaviors in some coordinate directions even though the total sum of energy flow-in is positive, meaning that the system is passive. The passivity condition, therefore, needs to be applied to each coordinate in order to avoid oscillatory behavior by keeping each energy flow-in always positive. For guaranteeing passivity, which in turn, stability in each coordinates, the EBA is applied. For multiple-dof haptic interaction, however, the EBA in each coordinate may distort the direction of the force vector to be rendered since the EBA may cut down the magnitude of the force and torque vectors to be rendered in order to ensure the passivity. For avoiding this problem, a simple projection method is presented. The validity of the proposed algorithm is shown by several experiments.

Friction and wear characteristics between two steel surfaces under fretting condition are investigated experimentally. The fretting damage caused by low-amplitude oscillatory sliding can be classified into three regimes of gross-slip, mixed-slip and partial-slip due to stick-slip phenomenon. One of the most important characteristics of fretting wear is the transition from gross-slip to mixed-slip. This study was focused on getting the degree of stick-slip out of the friction transition under fretting condition. Fretting wear is divided into three conditions of gross-slip/mixed-slip/partial-slip. The criteria for the division are friction and displacement amplitude, wear scar morphology and dissipated energy. In this test, friction force and displacement were measured for detecting the transition from mixed-slip to gross-slip and qualitatively predicting the degree of the wear.

This study analyzed characteristics of soft ground consolidation according to depths of vertical drain. As the result, when the depth ratio of vertical drains (L/D) were 0.5, 0.7, and 1.0, consolidation characteristics were similar up to 70% in consolidation degree under one-dimensional drain condition. However, above this degree, consolidation speed became slower as L/D became smaller. Two-dimensional drain condition also showed a similar tendency, but when L/D was 1.0, the consolidation speed was relatively higher.

Fractures in the form of micro cracks are commonly found in natural rocks. A rock behaves in a complex way due to fracture; in particular, the anisotropic strength of a rock material is significantly influenced by the presence of these fractures. Therefore, it is essential to understand the failure mechanism of a fractured rock. In this study, a fractured rock is formulated in terms of fabric tensor based on geometric and mechanical simplifications. In this way, position, density and shape of fractures can be determined by the fabric tensor so that rocks containing multi-fractures can successfully be modeled. Also an index to evaluate the degree of anisotropy of a fractured rock is proposed. Hence, anisotropic strength of a rock containing fractures under uniaxial compression condition is estimated through a series of numerical analyses for the multi-fractured model. Numerical investigations are carried out by varying the fracture angle from $0^{\circ}\;to\;90^{\circ}$ and relationship between uniaxial compression strength and the degree of anisotropy is investigated. By comparing anisotropic strength of numerical analysis with analytic solution, this study attempts to understand the failure mechanism of rock containing fractures.

In order to reject the steady-state tracking error, it is common to introduce integral compensators in servosystems for constant reference signals. However, the mathematical model of the plant is exact and no disturbance input exists, the integral compensation is not necessary. From this point of view, a two-degree-of-freedom(2DOF) servosystem has been proposed, in which the integral compensation is effective only when there is a modeling error or a disturbance input. The present paper considers robust stability of this 2DOF servosystem to the unstructured uncertainty of the controlled plant. A robust stability condition is obtained using Riccati inequality, which is independent of the gain of the integral compensator. An example is presented, which demonstrates that the tracking response of the 2DOF servosystem with uncertainty becomes faster when the integral gain made larger under the robust stability condition.
