One-dimensional (1D) silver nanostructures, which possess the highest conductivity among all room-temperature materials, moderate flexibility and high transmittance, are one of the most promising candidate materials to replace conventional indium tin oxide transparent electrodes. However, the short length and large diameter of 1D silver nanostructures cause a substantial decrease in the optical transparency or an increase in the sheet resistance. In this work, ultra-long silver nanofiber networks were synthesized with a low-cost and scalable electrospinning process, and the diameter of the nanofibers were finetuned to achieve a higher aspect ratio. The decrease in the diameter of the nanofibers resulted in a higher optical transparency at a lower sheet resistance: 87 % at $300{\Omega}/sq$, respectively. It is expected that an electrospun silver nanofiber based transparent electrode can be used as a key component in various optoelectronic applications.

Urea/formaldehyde(UF) and melamine/formaldehyde(MF) microcapsules containing perfume and 2,4,4'-trichlroro-2-hydroxydiphenyl ether(DP) were prepared by the in-situ polymerization using urea and formaldehyde. Effects of dispersing agent, accelerating agent, formaldehyde, agitation speed on the mean diameter of microcapsules were investigated. The diameter of microcapsule was decreased with increasing dispersing agent concentration. A slight increase in the diameter was observed when the concentration of film forming material was increased. The diameter of microcapsule was decreased with increasing agitation speed up to 8,000rpm. The mean diameters of UF microcapsule prepared at 8,000rpm are about 3$\mu$m. A slight decrease in the diameter was observed when the concentration of resorcinol was increased.

Porous hydroxyapatite has been widely used as clinical implanted material. However, it has poor mechanical properties. To increase the strength as well as the biocompatibility of the porous HAp based artificial bone, it was fabricated by multi-extrusion process. Hydroxyapatite and graphite powders were mixed separately with ethylene vinely acetate and steric acid by shear mixing process. Hydroxyapatite composites containing porous microstructure were fabricated by arranging it in the die and subject it to extrusion process. Burn-out and sintering processes were performed to remove the binder and graphite as well as increase the density. The external and internal diameter of cylindrical hollow core were approximately 10.4 mm and 4.2 mm, respectively. The size of pore channel designed to increase bone growth (osteconduction) was around 150 ${\mu}m$ in diameter. X-ray diffraction analysis and SEM observation were performed to identity the crystal structure and the detailed microstructure, respectively.

This paper shows the discharge characteristics of liquid nitrogen under plane to plane electrode, needle to plance electrode, inserting teflon insulator in plane to plane electrode at atmospheric pressure. The main experimental device of this paper is cryostat. The important results obtained from this study are sa follows. Breakdown voltage of LN2 under N-P electrode is higher than that of under P-P electrode at atmospheric pressure. Breakdown duration time is longer with increase of electode gap under the P-P, N-P electrodes. The formation of bubbles by evaporation is observed in spite of non-applying source at atmospheric pressure and the creation of corona confirmed. Breakdown voltage and breakdown duration time are in proportion to increase of diameter in case of inserting teflon insulator. Partial discharge characteristics of thickness 0.5[mm] is that 채굼 voltage of teflon insulator rose with increase of diameter in each [pps].

This study contains actual scaled site experiments on mediation factors affecting ultimate pulling force of the buoyancy resisting anchor which is installed underground water level suffering buoyancy force and breaking mechanism. Site buoyancy test selected the buoyancy acting site where acting buoyancy to the station structure since the stream and reservoir is neighboured to the vicinity ground and executed site experiments leading to variation of anchoring length, drilling diameter and tendon diameter at the weathered rock ground. The test result showed that pulling force getting increased more and more proportionate to increase of anchoring length, drilling diameter and tendon diameter, and as a result of analysis for correlations between anchoring length-ultimate limited load and drilling diameter-ultimate load (on the basis of 254mm settlement), modulus of correlation showed very high relation 0.9 and 0.99 respectively and correlation formular showed the limited load is increasing proportionate to cubic meters of anchoring length as well as the ultimate load proportionate to alignment of drilling diameter. It is also showed that limited load increased about 42.5% from 392kN to 559kN as a result of change the tendon diameter to 36mm and 50mm.

For the mass production of plug seedlings in cultivar ‘Dejima’ potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) the optimal apical cutting diameter for rooting and rapid multiplication of stem cuttings in hydroponics were determined. In addition, the best planting date was predicted to increase tuber yield of plug seedlings at fall cropping in Cheju-Do, Korea. Days to initial rooting decreased as the cutting diameter was reduced. Plant height, leaf number, root length and root weight per plant were favorable as the cutting diameter was small. The ideal cutting diameter was 1-2 mm in this experiment. In the hydroponic cultures, the Japanese standard (JS) nutrient solution was the most effective for multiplication of stem cuttings. It was able to propagate more than 20 times a month from a single mother plant. Viability of plants, which were derived from plug seedlings using stem cuttings, was excellent when transplanted to the field. The number of tubers and tuber yield in both of the plug seedlings and seed potato planting plots were high when planted on 25 August. The number and yield were reduced when planted on 15 August, 5 September and 15 September. The degree of decrease of tuber yield in the plug seedling planting plot however, was lower than that of seed potatoes when the planting date was late. In the case of small tubers (under 30 g), the number of tubers and tuber yield were evidently increased in the seed potato tuber planting plot; the yield of large tuber (over 80g) in the plug seedling planting plot was higher than that of the seed potato. The total tuber yield per plant in the plug seedling planting plot was less than that of the seed potato; therefore, in order to increase tuber yield it was necessary to increase field plant density.

The lateral bearing characteristics are important factors in the case of large diameter drilled shafts and the measures to increase this are to improve the adjacent ground of the pile to increase the rigidity and to increase the rigidity of the pile itself. There are many suggestions for increasing rigidity by reinforcing casing on the pile, but few studies have been done related to this. Therefore, in this study, the lateral bearing characteristics according to casing reinforcement length were studied for each ground condition using non-linear analysis to evaluate the appropriate casing reinforcement length of the large diameter drilled shafts depending on the ground conditions. As a result, the lateral bearing characteristics of the large diameter drilled shafts are most effective if the casing reinforcement length ratio is 1.2, and depending on the ground conditions, the more loose the ground, the greater the reinforcement effect.

The electron emission and degradation of the ferroelectric Pb($\textrm{Zr}_{0.5}\textrm{Ti}_{0.5}$)$\textrm{O}_3$ ceramics by the pulse electric field have been investigated as a function of the upper electrode diameter. Polarization increased with the decrease of the upper electrode diameter due to the increase of the volume fraction participated in the polarization reversal near the electrode edge. Simulation using ANSYS 5.3 for the electric field distribution showed that the electric field increased near the upper electrode edge of the asymmetric electrode structure. The ferroelectric volume near the upper electrode edge which contributed to the increase of the polarization and the emission charge per electrode diameter were independent on the upper electrode diameter. Polarization and dielectric constant were decreased due to the erosion of the upper electrode with repeating the emission cycles, but they were recovered by the electrode regeneration. The degradation of the ferroelectric surface resulted in the increase of the coercive field and dielectric loss.

Experiments were performed to investigate the melting characteristics of pellet fuel made of LDPE and PP for a waste plastic firing boiler. Pellet fuel in a burner goes through conduction, convection and radiation transferred from flame in a furnace, and complex thermo/chemical processes. To figure out effects of ambient temperature and size of pellet on melting time pellets with a diameter from 5 mm to 40 mm were made to contact high temperature flue gas generated by a LNG firing pilot burner. Though melting processes of plastics include complicated heat transfer in a burner, parameters are limited to flue gas temperature and size for the simplicity in this study. From the results, melting times of LDPE and PP with a diameter of 5mm are 63 and 62 secs respectively at 600 $^{\circ}C$ while 677 and 583 sees respectively for a diameter of 40 mm. At $900^{\circ}C$, melting times of LDPE and PP with a diameter of 5mm are 21 and 24 sees respectively while 408 and 337 secs respectively for a diameter of 40 mm. It is found that melting time of LDPE is longer than that of PP, and melting times of both in general increase with diameter of pellets. It is thought melting is dependent mostly on melting temperature of plastic. It is expected melting times obtained from the study might be taken into account in designing a pellet firing burner for a boiler

Laminal natural convection heat transfer in the annulus between isothermal horizontal non-circular cylinders is studied by solving the Navier-Stokes and energy equation using an elliptic numerical procedure. Results are obtained to determine the effects of the diameter ratio($D_o/D_i$) and Rayleigh number on heat transfer. The diameter ratio is varied from 1.5 to 13.0 at Pr=0.7, H/L=1.5 and $10^3{\leqslant}Ra_L{\leqslant}4{\times}10^4$. It is found that the diameter ratio causes a more significant on the local heat transfer coefficient of lower semi-circular cylinder and plate than upper semi-circular cylinder. The mean Nusselt number increases as the diameter ratio and Rayleigh number increase, and is higher than that of the circular annulus with a same wetted perimeter.
