A mathematical heat transfer model for the prediction of heat flux on the slab surface and temperature distribution in the slab has been developed by considering the thermal radiation in the furnace and transient conduction governing equations in the slab, respectively. The furnace is modeled as radiating medium with spatially varying temperature and constant absorption coefficient. The slab is moved with constant speed through non-firing, charging, preheating, heating, and soaking zones in the furnace. Radiative heat flux which is calculated from the radiative heat exchange within the furnace modeled using the FVM by considering the effect of furnace wall, slab, and combustion gases is applied as the boundary condition of the transient conduction equation of the slab. Heat transfer characteristics and temperature behavior of the slab is investigated by changing such parameters as absorption coefficient and emissivity of the slab. Comparison with the experimental work shows that the present heat transfer model works well for the prediction of thermal behavior of the slab in the reheating furnace.

Glycated hemoglobin ($HbA_{1c}$) has been commonly used to screen and diagnose for patients with diabetes mellitus. Here the accelerated procedure of microwave-assisted sample treatment from acid hydrolysis to enzyme digestion followed by isotope dilution liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (ID-LC-MS/MS) was optimized and applied to measure $HbA_{1c}$ in an effort to speed up analysis time. First, two signature peptides of $HbA_{1c}$ and hemoglobin $A_0$ were certified with amino acid analysis by setting optimized acid hydrolysis conditions to $150^{\circ}C$, 1.5 h and $10{\mu}M$ sample concentration in 8 M hydrochloric acid. Consequently, the accurate certified peptides above were used as calibration standards to implement the proteolytic procedure with endoproteinase Glu-C at $37^{\circ}C$, 700 W for 6 h. Compared to the traditional method, the microwave heating not only shortened dramatically sample preparation time, but also afforded comparable recovery yields. The optimized protocol and analytical conditions in this study are suitable for a primary reference method of $HbA_{1c}$ quantification with full SI-traceability and other similar proteins in complex biological samples.

Recently, from general machine parts and automobile parts using carbon steel to a mold, there has been efforts for improving durability and attrition resistance of these parts. Especially, heat treatment with laser which works fast and automatically can be used for the mass production with high quality. Moreover, local heat treatment can be used to handle with complex and precise parts. Accordingly, we analyzed hardening characteristics of carbon steel using the finite element method and compare the experimental results to have more reliability. We also proved the cause of thermal deformation with temperature and stress distribution by heat treatment. After these analysis and experimental, we found that each maximum hardness of the two tests was 728 Hv and 700 Hv, on condition of $1050^{\circ}C$ heating temperature, and 2 mm/sec laser speed. We also found that difference of surface stress-distribution was occurred, and this makes deformation mode up after heat treatment.

Electrolyte matrix fabrication process can be classifed as hot pressing, tape casting, callendering, electrophoretic deposition. however, these have limits in practice. Hot pressing is cumbersome method, because of careful heating and cooling. Furthermore, the perfected tile is so fragile that it is difficult to fit in a cell. Therefore this method is not adequate for mass production of the electrolyte matrix. Using electrophoretic deposition method, a very thin matrix can be made, but many attempts of the electrolyte embeding were found to be failure. Tape casting and callendering methods are employed in most of the matrix fabrication for the present. But these methods require lots of water as a solvent, so that coating of the LiAlO sub(2) with electrolyte is difficult. Recently, hot roll milling method has been developed and the perfected matrix was proved to be free from crack. The method, however, needs a roller to make a matrix and a perfected matrix is carefully striped off from the cooled roller. Therefore, this method requires a long time due to the cooling process. The author proposes a cold rolling process. On this method, heated slurry of the LiAlO sub(2) mixed with binder, is rolled with a cold roller. The heated slurry dose not adhere to the roller, since contacted hot slurry is rapidly solidified. Therefore fabrication speed is increased, without getting rid of merits of the hot rolling process.

In the direct injected gasoline engine, atomized spray is desired to achieve efficient mixture formation needed to good engine performance because the injection process leaves little time for the evaporation of fuels. Therefore, substantial understanding of global spray structure and quantitative characteristics of spray are decisive technology to optimize combustion system of a GDI engine. The combustion and emission characteristics of gasoline-fueled stratified-charge compression ignition(SCCI) engine according to intake temperature and compression ratio was examined. The fuel was injected directly to the cylinder under the high temperature condition resulting from heating the intake port. With this injection strategy, the SCCI combustion region was expanded dramatically without any increase in NOx emissions, which were seen in the case of compression stroke injection. Injection timing during the intake temperature was found to be an important parameter that affects the SCCI region width. The mixture stratification and the fuel reformation can be utilized to reduce the required intake temperature for suitable SCCI combustion under each set of engine speed and compression ratio conditions.

Air curtains are widely used in commercial and public buildings to replace solid doors where traffic of people is predicted. At doorways where the solid door is open continuously or intermittently, an air curtain may be installed in order to reduce the flow of heat and moisture from the enclosed space to the outside. The purpose of this paper is to predict isolation performance of the single-sided air curtain when the wind is blowing. For the study, a numerical simulation is used to find the influence of various jet velocities on the efficiency of the single-sided air curtain device which is mounted at the side of the doorway. The isolation performance of the single-sided air curtain is evaluated by sealing efficiency which provides the assessment of the infiltration air ratio. According to the result of this study, the single-sided air curtain has lower sealing efficiency than downward-blowing air curtain. Therefore, for energy conservation in heating space, the single-sided air curtain is not recommended because of its low effectiveness.

The state observer is being used widely because it has the advantage of the guarantee of reliability on financial problem, over heating, and physical shock. However, an Luenberger observer and a Sliding observer have such problems that an experimenter needs to know dynamics and parameters of the system. And also, the high gain observer has such a problem that it has transient state at the beginning of the observation. In this paper, the Neuro observer is proposed to improve these problems. The proposed Neuro observer complement a problem that occur from increase of gain of High-gain observer in proportion to the square number of observable state variables. And also, the proposed Neuro observer can tune the gain obtained by differentiating observational error at transient state automatically by using the backpropagation training method to stabilize the observational speed. To prove a performance of the proposed observer, it is simulated that the comparison between the state estimate performance of the proposed observer and that of Sliding, High gain observer is made by using a sinusoidal input to the observer which consists of four layers in stable 2nd order system.

Major atmospheric stability classification methods were evaluated with meteorological data obtained by scoustic sounding profiler (SODAR/RASS) in Seoul. The Psequill classificatio method, the method most widely used because of its good agreement in respect of synoptic scope under the steady state, fails to describe the time lag, the response time on stability by heating or cooling caused by daily insolation or noctrunal surface radiation. Horizontal and vertical standard deviation of wind fluctuation $(\sigma_A and \sigma_E)$ method tend to classify night-time stable condition (E, F class) into unstable condition (A, B class). The classification matrix tables for Vogt's vertical temperature difference and wind speed using method ($\Delta$T $\cdot$ U) and bulk Richardson number (Rb) were amended for practical use over Seoul. The modified tables for $\Delta$T $\cdot$ U and Rb method were made by using comprehensive frequency distribution from Pasquill's method and other existing results, and the correlation coefficient(r) was equal to 0.829. It was confirmed that atmospheric stability could be changed with monitoring site characteristics, height and vertical difference between sensors of monitoring station, and classification method itself.

A mosaic diseased radish collected from the suburb of Seoul, in November, 1961 was used for studing the host range, physical properteis, purificaitiion, insect transmission, and electron microscopy. A Japanese strain of radish mosaic(RPV) was also used with Korean strain of radish mosaic (KRMV) for a comparative study. The two viruses, KRMA and RPV, were identified by the difference in host range, insect transmission and electron microscopy. The KRMA was severely infective on tobacco and Nicotiana glutinosa, while on Gomphrena globsa was immune to the virus. RPV produces necrotic local lesions on Gomphrena globosa but did not infect tobacco and N. glutinosa. Among varieties of radish, Seoul, Akamaroo, Akanagea, Koong-Joong showed more severe symptoms than Simoo, Minong, Paek-soo, which appeared to be fainly resistant. In a number of tests, it was found that the virus KRMA retained its infectivity until to a dilution of 1:2,000, heating at $58^{\circ}$ for 10 minutes, adn aging in vitro for 7 days at room temperature. The RPV was not inactivated until it was diluted to 1:2,000, heated to $56^{\circ}$, and aged for 6 days. The KRMV was readily transmitted by the aphid(Myzus persicae Sulz). The virus RPV was not transmitted by the aphid in a number of tests. Partialy purified viruses using ammonium acetate buffer, salting-out by ammonium sulfate and centrifugation of high and low speed were highly infective. Electron micrographs showed that the KRMV paticles are of spherical particles whereas the RPV particles are rod-shaped.
