The influence of dry-heat treatment($130{\sim}220^{\circ}C$) on the gelatinization and rheological properties of corn starch(11.4% moisture) was examined. The enthalpy of gelatinization measured by differential scanning calorimetry decreased above $190^{\circ}C$. The viscosity of starch by alkali gelatinization increased as the heating temperature rised. All the values including peak viscosity on amylograms and shear stress, apparent viscosity, consistency index and yield stress of thermal-gelatinized starch dispersion showed decreasing tendencies with increasing of heating temperature from above $170^{\circ}C$ compared with those of raw starch. The apparent viscosity and yield stress of all the samples thermal-gelatinized at $90^{\circ}C$ were increased considerably with process of gelatinization time and especially their rapid increase at the early stage was observed in the $190^{\circ}C$ sample. But all the rheological parameters of $220^{\circ}C$ sample recorded very low values compared with those of the others.

Numerical simulations were carried out to investigate the impact of SST spatial distribution on the result of air quality modeling. Eulerian photochemical dispersion model CAMx (Comprehensive Air quality Model with eXtensions, version 4.50) was applied in this study and meteorological fields were prepared by RAMS (Regional Atmospheric Modeling System). Three different meteorological fields, due to different SST spatial distributions were used for air quality modeling to assess the sensitivity of CAMx modeling to the different meteorological input data. The horizontal distributions of surface ozone concentrations were analyzed and compared. In each case, the simulated ozone concentrations were different due to the discrepancies of horizontal SST distributions. The discrepancies of land-sea breeze velocity caused the difference of daytime and nighttime ozone concentrations. The result of statistic analysis also showed differences for each case. Case NG, which used meteorological fields with high resolution SST data was most successfully estimated correlation coefficient, root mean squared error and index of agreement value for ground level ozone concentration. The prediction accuracy was also improved clearly for case NG. In conclusion, the results suggest that SST spatial distribution plays an important role in the results of air quality modeling on high ozone episode at coastal region.

The water-based magentic fluids were successfully prepared with the synthesized ultrafine magnetite using saturated with fatty acids($C_{9}~C_{18}$) and SDBS as surfactants. The dispersion index of water-based fluids was about 85 % when the amounts of lauric acid and SDBS for the 27 g of magnetite were more than $2.66{\times}10^{-2}mol$ and 5 g($7.17{\times}10^{-2}mol$) respectively. As the solid content increased from 0.05 g/cc to 0.4 g/cc, saturated magnetization of magnetic fluids at 5 kOe increased from 2.07 emu/g to 9.31 emu/g and its viscosity increased from 1.20 cp to 3.95 cp. The stable pH region in which the magnetic fluids prepared with lauric acid and SDBS was range of 3.1 to 11.1. It was found that the water-based magnetic fluids was well dispersed as the carbon length of fatty acid increased, but the amount of scum of the magnetic fluids increased.

In this paper, we designed and analyzed a 3D isotropic bulk structure consisting of thin wires and SRR's(Split Ring Resonator) with which the permittivity and permeability can be controlled at the same time. For the 3D isotropic bulk structure, first of all, the geometry seen by three main axes must look alike. Thus, we adopted the orthogonal thin wires and symmetrical SRR's. As a result, we constructed metamaterial bulk structures of which effective relative permittivity and permiability are about -0.6 and -1.5, respectively. Its refractive index is about -0.95 in each direction(x, y and z direction). The computed Brillouin dispersion diagram also showed that the proposed structure is almost near isotropic.

The effects of gellan gum (from S. paucimobilis), EPS-CB (exopolysaccharide from S. chungbukensis), and a series of commercial gums (arabic gum, xanthan gum, guar gum, deacyl gellan gum), on the swelling, rheological, and pasting properties of non-waxy rice flour dispersions were investigated. The swelling properties of rice flours in gellan or guar gum dispersion after heating were found to have increased with increasing gum concentrations, but the swelling properties of rice flour/other gum systems decreased with increasing concentrations. The rice flour/gum mixtures showed high shear-thinning flow behavior (n=0.14-0.32), and consistency index (K) was higher in guar gum than other gum dispersions. The initial pasting temperatures and peak times increased along with increasing gum concentration. The peak viscosity of rice flour increased in guar gum and deacyl gellan dispersions, and the breakdown and setback viscosity of the rice flour paste was lowest in the xanthan gum system, but remained higher than those of the control. The apparent viscosities of the rice flour/gellan gum mixture pastes were the highest among the tested combinations.

This paper deals with AM-SMMA (Adaptive Modulus-SMMA) adaptive equalization algorithm that is possible to improves the equalization performance using adaptive modulus which is propotional to the output signal power of equalizer in the current SMMA algorithm. The fixed statistic modulus of transmitted QAM signal is used in current SMMA algorithm in order to generate the error signal for updating the tap coefficient of equalizer. The adaptive modulus which is propotion to the equalizer output signal power is used in the proposed AM-SMMA. The computer simulation was performed in order to confirm the improved equalization performance of proposed algorithm. The performance index includes the output signal constellation, the residual isi and maximum distortion that is for the convergence characteristics, the SER. As a result of computer simulation, the residual isi, maximum distortion are better in the small weighting values. But in SER performance is better in the large weighting values.

The ground subsidence that occurred in the abandoned coal mining area, Gaeun, Korea, was observed using 25 JERS-1 SAR interferograms from November 1992 to October 1998. We carried out measurements on a subset of image pixels corresponding to point-wise stable reflectors(PS: permanent scatterer) by exploiting a long temporal series of interferometric phases and compared it with the distribution map of in situ examined crack level. PSs could be identified by means of amplitude dispersion index and coherence of the interferograms and the density of PS was much higher in an urban area than in a mountainous region. The measured subsidence rate represented the average velocity in a period of image acquisition and excluded complex nonlinear displacements such as an abrupt collapse. The mean line-of-sight velocity in the study area is 0.19cm/yr and the estimation error is 0.18cm/yr. The center of the abandoned Gaeun coal mine(0.49cm/yr) and the area opposite Gaeun station(1.66cm/yr) were observed as the most highly subsiding areas.

In the case of a fire disaster in a uni-directional road tunnel, it is important to determine the critical ventilation velocity to prevent the backflow travelling toward the tunnel exit where vehicles are stopped. The critical ventilation velocity is horizontal velocity to prevent hot smoke from moving toward the tunnel exit. According to Froude modelling, the model tunnel whcih was 300mm in diameter and 21 m in length was made of acryl tubes. Inner section of acryl tubes was clothed with polycarbonate. 1/20 scaled model vehicles were installed to simulate the situation that vehicles are stopped in the tunnel exit. Methanol in a pool type burner was burned in the middle of tunnel to simulate a fire hazard. In this study, the basis of determining the critical ventilation velocity is the ventilation flow rate that is able to maintain the allowable CO concentration in the tunnel section. We assumed that the allowable CO concentration was backflow dispersion index. Futhermore, We intended to find out CO distribution and temperature distribution according as we changed ventilation velocity. The results of this study were that no backflow happened when ventilation velocity was 0.52 m/s in the case of 5.75 kW. If we adapt these results of a fire disaster releasing 10MW heat capacity in real tunnel which is 400m in length, no backflow happens when ventilation velocity is 2.31m/s. After we figured out dimensionless heat release rate and dimensionless ventilation velocity of model test and those of real test to verify experimental correctness, we tried to find out correlation between experimental results of model tunnel and those of real tunnel.

This study analyzed backward and forward linkage effects among Korea, China and Japan by International Input-Output(I-O) tables. Index of dispersion power and sensitivity degrees were measured after making 'Korea, China and Japan International Input-Output(I-O) Table'. The study showed that the inter-dependency between Korea and China was increased while the influences of Japanese was decreased among the 3 countries. Under the de-industrialization, the 3 countries decreased influences over their domestic industry but increased the inter-dependency over the other countries. In addition, backward and forward linkage effects was significantly high in some industrial sectors such as petroleum, transportation, machinery equipment, service and public administration in 3 countries. In the case of service, the linkage effects among the 3 countries increased which means that the roles and inter-dependency of service was also gradually increasing in 3 countries.

This study was performed to identify neighborhood deprivation indicators associated with health and to test the contextual effects of those indicators on individual health. This study calculated SMR based on Dong district and see the differences of prediction across deprivation index and indicators. Then, a multi-level analysis using HGLM was conducted to test the contextual effect of neighborhood depreivation indicators on health after controlling for demographic and socioeconomic status of individuals. The results showed that regional SMR had strong correlations with land price, education, welfare recipients, female household proportion in Dong district but failed to show the correlation with individual health and neighborhood deprivation. Individual health was only associated with individual level of demographic and socioeconomic status. That is, spatial dispersion of illness is understood as the distribution of social classes in terms of socioeconomic status of individuals, not the contextual aspects of community.
