  • The experimental and simulation study of insulator failure by cement growth on suspended insulators (16,500kgf) for transmission line was discussed. To get more practical and analytic calculation results, the advanced program was used. This analysis tool was possible to calculate stress behaviors with mechanical loading when cement displacement happened. From simulation results, the. cement displacement changed with linear according to temperature. The shear stress was about $7 kgf/mm^2$ at $0.07\%$ displacement provided from $200^{\circ}C$, then it could be seen that the cement would be fractured even if $0.07\%$ displacement acted, because the cement had about $7-9 kgf/mm^2$ flexure strength. The curve patterns of shear stress with the increase of mechanical loading were changed at $0.02\%$ as a turning point, when the cement displacement was over $0.02\%$ the shear stresses decreased reversely with the increase of mechanical loading. From analysis on porcelain body it was known that there were enough margin to protect the fracture of porcelain body before the cement

  • This paper deals with stress corrosion cracking behavior of high strength steel exposed to marine environments. The objective is to determine the time to failure as a function of hydrogen concentration and tensile stress in the wires. A crack growth curve is modeled using finite element method (FEM) program. The coupled hydrogen diffusion-stress analyses of SCC were programmed separately. The first part is calculating stress and stress intensity /sup 1)/factor of a cylindrical shell, prestressing tendon or suspension bridge wires, from the initiation of cracks to rupture. Virtual crack extension method, contour integral method, and crack tip elements are used for the calculation of stresses in front of the crack tip. Comparisons of the result show a good agreement with the analytical equations and wire tests. The second part of the study deals with the programming of hydrogen diffusion, affected by hydrostatic stress, calculated at the location of boundary of plastic area around the crack tip. The results of paper can be used in the design and management of prestressed structures, cable stayed and suspension bridges. Time dependent correlated parallel reliabilities of a cable, composed of 36 wires, were evaluated by the consideration of the deterioration of stress corrosion cracking.

  • OsTAT encodes a twin-arginine translocator (TAT) pathway signal protein. It contains a TRANS membrane domain and a chloroplast transit peptide. mRNA transcription profiling of OsTAT1 revealed that it is highly overexpressed in the leaves corroborating reports on its role in chloroplast. Moreover, its level of expression is more pronounced during earlier stages (germination, 3-leaf stage, and maximum tillering) of growth in rice. A lower disease progress curve of bacterial blight is evident in transgenic lines compared with the wild type, Dongjin indicating its involvement in immunity to Xoo. Expression pattern following infection of Xoo strain K2 depicts highest levels at 4 and 8 hour post-inoculation which implies crucial induction of resistance during early response. This study initially reports a new overview on the biological functions of plant's TAT pathway. Further molecular and genetic analyses are underway to provide detailed involvement of OsTAT in disease resistance.

  • The results of the water purification studies using water parsley (Oenanthe javanica) were obtained as follows. The removal rate of nutrient salts increased with longer plant growth periods. The results of this study use the assumption, log(T+1) = $K(C_0-C)^A$, based on Prakish's Theory. The initial concentration was calculated from experimental data. A and K are closely related to the initial concentration. It is possible to model the concentration of residual salts, as time goes by, if concentration is constant. It was observed that water parsley neutralizes acid and alkali substances promptly. The maximum suitable neutralization period is 48 hours. But water parsley withered up in strong acid and alkali solutions within a week. The removal efficiency of Cd progresses in 2 steps, which are unrelated to the initial concentration of Cd. The first part of the curve shows the concentration rapid rate of Cd removal, followed by a levelling off. The removal rate of $NO_x-N$ in the sample water tank containing 0.5 ppm Cd was between 50~80% but the removal rate was less than 20% for the higher concentration. On the other hand, increased amounts of $PO_4-P$ in the sample water tank from the third day on suspected that $PO_4-P$ was desorbed from the water parsley. The accumulation efficiency of Cd in plant was increased in proportion to the initial concentration of Cd. The accumulation phenomenon was observed in the tanks more than 50~100 times.

  • The purpose of this study is to forecast the penetration rate of renewable energy and a reasonable scale for the R&D investment plan in Korea based on the relationship between the diffusion and R&D investments drawn by analogy from empirical cases of advanced countries. Among numerous candidate developed countries, the German market was chosen based on the similarity of the diffusion patterns to those of the Korean plan. We then figured out how the investment triggers the growth of technology from the selected benchmark, and applied the technology S-curve relation formula to derive the desirable investment plan for Korea. The present paper is a pioneering attempt to forecast the diffusion process of renewable energy technology in Korea using the comparative analogy from cases of advanced countries.

  • 지역빈도해석은 우리나라와 같이 자료 기간이 짧은 경우 지점빈도해석보다 더 정확한 확률강우량을 산정할 수 있는 기법이다. 지역빈도해석을 통한 확률강우량 산정 결과는 수문학적으로 동질한 지역의 구분 결과에 따라 달라진다. 지역을 구분할 때에는 강우에 영향을 미치는 다양한 변수들이 사용될 수 있다. 변수의 유형과 개수가 지역 구분의 효율성을 좌우하기 때문에 활용 가능한 모든 변수들의 정보를 요약할 수 있는 변수들을 선택하는 것이 지역 구분의 효율성 면에서 유리하다고 할 수 있다. 이런 면에서 지역 구분의 효율성을 증대시킬 목적으로 다변량 분석 기법이 활용될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 주성분 분석, 요인 분석, Procrustes analysis와 같은 다변량 분석 기법을 활용하여 42개의 강우 관련 변수들을 33개의 변수로 줄일 수 있었다. 분석 결과 변수 개수 감소로 인한 정보 손실은 크지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 이러한 기법에 의한 변수 차원의 축소는 지역 구분의 효율성 향상에 기여할 수 있는 것으로 판단된다. 선정된 변수들을 바탕으로 군집해석을 수행하여 지역을 구분하였고, L-모멘트에 근거한 이질성척도(H)를 활용하여 구분된 지역의 동질성을 검토하였다. 또한 L-모멘트에 근거한 적합성 척도(Z)를 적용하여 구분된 지역에 적합한 확률분포형을 선정하였고, 선정된 적정 확률분포형을 바탕으로 각 지역에 대한 성장 곡선(growth curve)을 유도하였다.

  • This study was conducted to compare the internal and external fruit quality of highbush blueberry cultivars introduced in Korea. The fruit of blueberry showed a double S-shaped growth curve, and the fruit weight increased significantly per seed increased by 0.02 g. The sugar content ranged from 9.5 to 14.2°Bx, with a large difference between cultivars. And the free sugar was composed of glucose and fructose as a reducing sugar, and mannitol as a sugar alcohol. The organic acid content was 0.7~1.13%, and citric acid was higher than that of malic acid. Fruit hardness showed a berry characteristic that rapidly declined as the coloring progressed.

  • Purpose : The anthropometric data of newborns published by Lubchenco et al in the 1960's have been most commonly used in Korea as a standard of newborn growth. We hypothesized that Lubchenco's data have limitations for Korean premature infants born in the 2000's. We analyzed and compared the data of birth weight, length, and head circumference. Methods : The medical records of 1,159 premature infants of 26 to 35 weeks of gestational age born at Il-Sin Christian Hospital of Busan from January 2,000 to August 2,006 were reviewed. The anthropometric data from total 1,010 premature infants were analyzed after excluding the data from infants whose gestational age were estimated by other than ultrasonogram, and infants with major congenital anomalies or chromosomal anomaly, born from foreign parent, and extreme outliers. Results : In the birth weights by gestational age, our 90 percentile values were lower than Lubchenco's 90 percentile values for all gestational age studied, particularly for less than 30 weeks the 90 percentile curve was drawn at the area as that of Lubchenco' 75 percentile. And our 10 percentile values were higher than Lubchenco's 10 percentile values for all gestational age studied. In the birth length and head circumference by gestational age, our 90 percentile values were lower than Lubchenco's 90 percentile values for all gestational age studied, and the 90 percentile curve was drawn at the area as that of Lubchenco's 75 percentile. And our 10 percentile values were higher than Lubchenco's 10 percentile values for all gestational age studied. Conclusion : It is unreasonable to apply Lubchenco's data published before 4th decades to present Korean premature infants and have a risk to underestimate intrauterine growth retardation or small for gestational age and large for gestational age. Considering for the possibility of increasing the mortality and morbidity of premature infants due to delayed diagnosis and treatment by these underestimating, our anthropometric data of premature infant is expected to contribute to lower the mortality and morbidity of premature infants.
