In this paper, the piezoelectric and dielectric properties of $Pb(Zr_xTi_{1-x)O_3$ - $Pb(Co_{1/3}Nb_{1/3})O_3)$ piezoelectric ceramics have been investigated as a function of Zr/Ti mole ratio. From the results, when Zr/Ti mole ratio is 49/51, electromechanical coupling coefficient($k_p$), piezoelectric strain constant($d_{33}$) mechanical quality factor($Q_m$), and Permittivity(${{\varepsilon}_{33}}^T/{\varepsilon}_0$) is 64[%], 469[PC/N], 360 and 2000, respectively. Morphotropic Phase Boundary is Zr/Ti mole ratio(49/51) from XRD analysis. Also. From SEM observation, when sintering temperature is 1150[$^{\circ}C$], grain size is about $1{\sim}2[{\mu}m]$ and maximum sintering density is 7.85[$g/cm^3$].

Six specimens are tested to investigate the cyclic behavior of beam-to-column abnormal joints in steel moment-resisting frames, which are designed according to the principle of strong-member and weak-panel zone. Key parameters include the axial compression ratio of column and the section depth ratio of beams. Experimental results indicate that four types of failure patterns occurred during the loading process. The $P-{\Delta}$ hysteretic loops are stable and plentiful, but have different changing tendency at the positive and negative direction in the later of loading process due to mechanical behaviors of specimens. The ultimate strength tends to increase with the decrease of the section depth ratio of beams, but it is not apparent relationship to the axial compression ratio of column, which is less than 0.5. The top panel zone has good deformation capacity and the shear rotation can reach to 0.04 rad. The top panel zone and the bottom panel zone don't work as a whole. Based on the experimental results, the equation for shear strength of the abnormal joint panel zone is established by considering the restriction of the bottom panel zone to the top panel zone, which is suitable for the abnormal joint of H-shaped or box column and beams with different depths.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Metabolic syndrome is closely associated with lifestyle factors, including diet and nutritional intake. Modern trends show a shift in food consumption from healthy home-cooked meals to processed and instant foods. Therefore, this study analyzed the association between ultra-processed food intake and the development of metabolic syndrome in Korean adults based on the data from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES) 2013-2018. SUBJECTS/METHODS: The subjects of this study were 17,414 adults aged 19-80 years who participated in the 6th-7th KNHANES. Processed food was classified into four categories, NOVA1 to NOVA4, using 24-h recall data. The higher the NOVA category, the more processed the food. Statistical analysis was conducted using logistic regression to investigate the prevalence of metabolic syndrome according to the consumption of ultra-processed foods. RESULTS: Among the diagnostic criteria for metabolic syndrome, hypertension (odds ratio [OR], 0.72; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.62-0.85; Q4 vs. Q1, P-trend < 0.001) and high triglycerides (OR, 0.83; 95% CI, 0.72-0.94; Q4 vs. Q1, P-trend < 0.001) showed a correlation with the percentages of energy consumed from ultra-processed foods. The OR for metabolic syndrome, according to the percentages of energy consumed from ultra-processed foods, is shown only for men. The OR showed that the percentages of energy consumed from ultra-processed foods were associated with increased metabolic syndrome. CONCLUSIONS: This study suggests that consumption of ultra-processed foods raises the risk of metabolic syndrome especially among men. To prevent metabolic syndrome, it is necessary to prepare appropriate dietary guidelines for Korean adults.

Silverman [14] proved a height inequality for a jointly regular family of rational maps and the author [10] improved it for a jointly regular pair. In this paper, we provide the same improvement for a jointly regular family: let h : ${\mathbb{P}}_{\mathbb{Q}}^n{\rightarrow}{{\mathbb{R}}$ be the logarithmic absolute height on the projective space, let r(f) be the D-ratio of a rational map f which is de ned in [10] and let {$f_1,{\ldots},f_k|f_l:\mathbb{A}^n{\rightarrow}\mathbb{A}^n$} bbe finite set of polynomial maps which is defined over a number field K. If the intersection of the indeterminacy loci of $f_1,{\ldots},f_k$ is empty, then there is a constant C such that $ \sum\limits_{l=1}^k\frac{1}{def\;f_\iota}h(f_\iota(P))>(1+\frac{1}{r})f(P)-C$ for all $P{\in}\mathbb{A}^n$ where r= $max_{\iota=1},{\ldots},k(r(f_l))$.

인천국제 공항에 분포하는 해성세립토 지반에서 일련의 CPTU와 DMT를 실시하고 그결과로부터 구한 비배수전단강도($s_{u}$ ), 과입밀도(OCR), 압밀계수($c_{h}$) 등과 같은 지반 정수와 기존의 시험자료 등을 분석하여 두 시험 결과를 비교하였다. 이 분석에의하면, CPTU와 DMT 두시험은 모두 피에조콘 정수, $B_{q}$ )로 분류하여 점성토인 지반에서 보다 신뢰성이 높은결과를 주었으며, 또한 해석방법에 따라 지반정수 산정결과에 큰 편차를 보여, 적절한 해석방법의 선택이 신뢰성있는 지반정수의 산정을 위한 주요한 인자임을 알았다. 그리고, 소성적 성질이 낮은 세립토 지반에서의 CPTU와 DMT를 이용한 비배수전단 강도 또한 과압밀비의 산정은 상당한 오차를 유발할 수 있다고 판단되었다.

Thermal stratification enhancement for the higher extraction efficiency of hot water storage tank was experimentally studied with transparent fiber glass cylindical tank($350{\ell}$, D=516mm, H=1680mm). Height to diameter ratio (H/D =1,2,3), flow rate(Q= 8,10,12LPM), inlet-outlet temperature differences(${\Delta}T=20,25,30^{\circ}C$), and geometry of inlet-outlet port were the parameters. In particular, three kind of distributors were used for geometry of inlet-outlet port. As a result, it was possible to get extraction efficiency of 95% by using the distributor having variable diameter but keeping a constant diameter of perforation. So it is recommendable to design the distributor so that the main pipe decrease in diameter toward the dead end.

Two trials were conducted to study the effects of two Chinese herbal polysaccharides, Astragalus polysaccharides (APS) and Achyranthes bidentata polysaccharides (ABPS), and one Chinese herbal saponin, Acantbepanax senticosus saponin (ASS), on the immunity and growth performance of weaned pigs. Experiment 1 was a 14-day growth assay, in which 32 weaned pigs were randomly allocated to one of four dietary treatments: i) 0.05% talcum powder control; ii) 0.05% APS; iii) 0.05% mixture of APS and ASS in a 1:1 ratio by weight; and iv) 0.05% mixture of APS, ASS, and ABPS in a ratio of 1:1:1 by weight. Blood samples were collected on day 14 to determine plasma parameters. Feed intake, body weight gain, and feed efficiency were also determined. Experiment 2 was a 21-day immunity assay, in which 16 weaned pigs were randomly allotted to one of two dietary treatments: i) 0.05% talcum powder control; and ii) 0.05% mixture of APS and ASS in a 1:1 ratio by weight. On day 21, pigs were challenged with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and 3 h later blood samples were collected and analyzed for lymphocyte proliferation as well as interleukin 6 (IL-6), insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), growth hormone (GH), and cortisol levels. In Experiment 1, feeding Chinese herbal polysaccharides and saponin increased growth performance of the pigs. The effects of the mixture of APS and ASS were especially notable, as there was a significant improvement in growth performance compared with the control (p<0.05). The plasma concentration of immunoglobulin G (IgG), nitric oxide (NO), and nitric oxide synthase (NOS) were increased in all treatments groups, with the mixture of APS and ASS increasing the level of IgG and NOS significantly (p<0.05), compared with the control. There was no difference in the NO level between the control and treatment groups (p>0.05). In Experiment 2, Chinese herbal polysaccharides and saponin showed immunostimulating effects. The level of cortisol, GH, and IGF-I were significantly increased (p>0.05), and the level of IL-6 showed a significant decrease (p<0.05) in the APS and ASS treatment after the LPS challenge. The mixture of APS and ASS could stimulate the blood lymphocyte proliferation significantly whether the LPS was injected or not (p<0.05). These results show that Chinese herbal extracts can improve growth performance and stimulate immunity of weaned pigs. A mixture of APS and ASS, compared with APS alone, could be a new kind of immunostimulant for weaned pigs, which could result in greater positive effects on their growth performance and immunity.

본 연구는 이산화탄소를 인위적으로 주입하여 주입구로부터의 거리와 이산화탄소 플럭스에 따른 소나무와 굴참나무 묘목의 엽록소 함량과 생장반응을 살펴보고자 실행하였다. 이를 위하여 음성 EIT 시험지에서 2년생 소나무와 1년생 굴참나무 묘목을 2015년 5월에 식재하였으며, 2016년 6월 1일부터 30일까지 $6L\;min^{-1}$의 속도로 2.5 m 깊이의 토양에 이산화탄소를 주입하였다. 2016년 7월 중순 경에 엽록소 함량을 분석하였고, 2016년 5월과 11월에 근원경, 수고, 생물량을 측정하였다. 소나무 묘목의 엽록소 함량은 이산화탄소 플럭스와 유의한 관계를 보이지 않은 반면에 굴참나무 묘목의 엽록소 함량은 이산화탄소 플럭스의 증가에 따라 유의한 음의 상관관계(P<0.05)를 보였다. 또한, 근원경과 수고 생장률은 두 수종 모두 이산화탄소 인위누출 처리구의 이산화탄소 누출구로부터 5 m 이내에서 유의한 차이를 보였다. 특히, 두 수종의 근원경 및 소나무 묘목의 수고 생장률은 누출구에 가까워질수록 유의하게 증가하였지만, 굴참나무 묘목의 수고 생장률은 유의하게 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. ${\Delta}R/S$율은 지중 이산화탄소 농도가 증가할수록 두 수종 모두 증가하는 것으로 나타나 상대적으로 지하부로의 탄소 분배량이 촉진되는 것으로 사료된다. 본 연구결과는 향후 지중 저장된 이산화탄소의 누출에 따른 수종별 생리 생장 반응과 이를 이용한 누출감지 모니터링에 필요한 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the effect of supplementing a corn-soybean meal-based diet with an enzyme complex containing amylase, protease and xylanase on the performance, intestinal health, apparent ileal digestibility of amino acids and nutrient digestibility of weaned pigs. In Exp. 1, 108 piglets weaned at 28 d of age were fed one of three diets containing 0 (control), 100, or 150 ppm enzyme complex for 4 wks, based on a two-phase feeding program namely 1 to 7 d (phase 1) and 8 to 28 d (phase 2). At the end of the experiment, six pigs from the control group and the group supplemented with 150 ppm enzyme complex were chosen to collect digesta samples from intestine to measure viscosity and pH in the stomach, ileum, and cecum, as well as volatile fatty acid concentrations and composition of the microflora in the cecum and colon. There were linear increases (p<0.01) in weight gain, gain: feed ratio and digestibility of gross energy with the increasing dose rate of enzyme supplementation during the whole experiment. Supplementation with enzyme complex increased the digesta viscosity in the stomach (p<0.05) and significantly increased (p<0.01) the concentrations of acetic, propionic and butyric acid in the cecum and colon. Enzyme supplementation also significantly increased the population of Lactobacilli (p<0.01) in the cecum and decreased the population of E. coli (p<0.05) in the colon. In Exp. 2, six crossbred barrows (initial body weight: $18.26{\pm}1.21$ kg), fitted with a simple T-cannula at the distal ileum, were assigned to three dietary treatments according to a replicated $3{\times}3$ Latin Square design. The experimental diets were the same as the diets used in phase 2 in Exp. 1. Apparent ileal digestibility of isoleucine (p<0.01), valine (p<0.05) and aspartic acid (p<0.05) linearly increased with the increasing dose rate of enzyme supplementation. In conclusion, supplementation of the diet with an enzyme complex containing amylase, protease and xylanase improved piglet performance. This is likely a result of improvement in nutrient digestibility, volatile fatty acid concentrations and bacteria ratio in the large intestine.
