Lightweight panels are currently used in many ways, such as inner walls of the skyscrapers and residential buildings in Korea. Moreover there has been an increasing of interest in developing construction method and quality improvement as many buildings became higher, because there are more advantages like constructability, finishability, and economic efficiency, etc. than previous heavy weight concrete wall. It is necessary to analyze the characteristics and evaluate the performance of lightweight panels when selecting proper methods and materials to building characteristics and builder's demand. However, there doesn't exist systematic data with a classification of lightweight panels' type and performance. The purpose of this study is to classify domestic lightweight panels by both type of exterior board and construction method, and also to evaluate each performance by surveying user's opinion.

The near-wall flow structures of turbulent boundary layer over riblets having semi-circular grooves were investigated experimentally for the drag decreasing ($s^+=25.2$) and drag increasing ($s^+=40.6$) cases. The field of view used for tho velocity field measurement was $6.75{\times}6.75mm^2$ in physical dimension, containing two grooves. One thousand instantaneous velocity fields over the riblets were extracted for each case of drag increase and decrease. For comparison, five hundreds instantaneous velocity fields over a smooth flat plate were also obtained under the same flow conditions. To see the global flow structure qualitatively, the flow visualization was also performed using the synchronized smoke-wire technique. For the drag decreasing case ($s^+=25.2$), most of the streamwise vortices stay above the riblets, interacting with the riblet tips. The high-speed in-rush flow toward the riblet surface rarely influences the flow inside tho riblet valleys submerged in the viscous sublayer. The riblet tips seem to impede the spanwise movement of the longitudinal vortices and induce secondary vortices. The turbulent kinetic energy in the riblet valley is sufficiently small to compensate the increased wetted area of the riblets. In addition, in the logarithmic region, the turbulent kinetic energy are small or almost equal to that of a smooth flat plato. For the drag increasing case ($s^+=40.6$), however, the streamwise vortices move into the riblet valley freely, interacting directly with the riblet inner surface. The penetration of the high-speed in-rush flow on the riblets increases tho skin-friction. The turbulent kinetic energy is increased in the riblet valleys and even in the outer region compared to that over a flat plate.

In apartment house renovation project, the project progress held up in perception gap or conflict of interest with residents as usual. These dispute occurs ambiguous borderline ordistinction of Common Useing) Parts and Exclusive Possessed Private Parts. The Maintenance Covenant now in force in Korea and Japan are considered in this paper about theses item. Summarizing the conclusion is as below. 1) In The Maintenance Covenantnow in force, in definition of Ownership, Utilization, Maintenance, Japan is more ostensive than Korea. 2) The Borderline of Common Using Parts with Exclusive Possessed Parts is [Inner line of Exterior Wall] in Korea and in Japan also. But in Korea it is not in unity in purpose and action or definition and description. 3) In Japan, the Subject of Ownership is defined with hierarchically, as Housing complex-residential Building-individual dwelling, But not in Korea. 4) In Japan, [Exclusively using Common Owned Parts] are defined, But not in Korea.

In this study, a waveguide system for focusing the electric field is presented to emit the microwave-driven plasma visible light. This system consists of a magnetron for the microwave power supply, the waveguide section for power propagation, and the mesh-type cavity reactor. The quartz bulb containing a dose of sulfur powder and buffer gas Ar is located in the reactor, and forced by the strongly concentrated electric field for generating and exciting the sulfur plasma. That is, the conductor tips are loaded on each inner wall of the waveguide and the reactor, and then the plasma bulb is positioned between the tips, hence focusing the strong electric field on the bulb. Furthermore the waveguide section is designed for minimizing the degradations of matching characteristics according to the variations of the electrical conductivities of plasma at the transitory phase for plasma generation, hence providing the stable operation. Finally, the 2.45 GHz aluminum waveguide system is constructed, and then experiments for emitting the visible light are performed by using 400 W-class magnetron, showing the validity of designed system.

The present study was carried out to produce in vitro fertilized embryos with immature follicular oocytes collected by transvaginal aspiration from Holstein cows. A simple aspiration apparatus consists of two stainless steel tubes, an inner tube (needle holder; 1.2cmdiameter, 55cm long) and an outer tube (1.5cm diameter, 4Scm long), and a hand-operated vacuum pump was used. Under epidural anesthesia, the needle guide was passed into the vagina of the cow to a point next to the cervix. An ovary was placed against the wall of the vagina over the end of the aspiration needle by rectal manipulation. As the needlepassed into the ovary, an assistant was asked to apply vacuum(l00mrnHg) and the ovary was manipulated back and forth in all directions over the needle. When all sites of the ovary was aspirated, the needle was withdrawn and the needle guide was moved to the other side of ovary and the procedure was repeated. When the oocyte aspiration procedure was finished, collected fluid was transported to laboratory. Oocytes surrounded with at least 1 layer of cumulus cells were matured, fertilized and cultured in vitro. The results were as follows; Ninety seven oocytes were collected by transvaginal aspiration from seventeen Holstein cows(5.7 /head). The number of oocytes surrounded with at least 1 layer of cumulus cells were 60(61.9%). Following in vitro maturation, fertilization and culture, the cleavage and development rate to morula+blastocyst were 83.3% and 30.0%, respectively. From this study, transferable in vitro fertilized embryos could be produced with imma- ture follicular oocytes collected by transvaginal aspiration from Holstein cows using a simple aspiration apparatus.

Frank Lloyd Wright, a master of the 20th Century Ar-chitecture, contributed tremendously in creating a wholly new form of American architecture called Prairie Style. His idea behind the development of the building structur-al system, organic relationships between inner and outer space, horizontal vertical lines, and idea of extending and expanding interior spaces came from nature. He had completed over 390 projects throughout his life and 90% of those projects were residential design. The most typical characteristic shared by many of his residential design was that each design element, whether it is functional or aesthetical, has close relationship to or-ganic nature, human scale, theoretical floor plants, and maximum emphasis on horizontal lines in respect to na-ture. His concept of "flow of spaces" reformed common the-ory of room next to room in a enclosed space. His sense of "wall" was no longer the side of a box. Careful selec-tion of finishing materials, colors, and natural images en-hance the design as well. F.L. Wright was an artist, designer, and architect who believed the exterior space should have direct relationship to the interior space. His architectural philosophy was not only to design exterior of architecture but also to ful-fill his space through the careful development of interior elements such as furniture, and lighting fixture. Even the patterns for leaded glass windows were designed to have unified appearance from outside to inside of the house. The objective of this study was to analyze floor plans, spatial organizations, and interior design elements of the houses which represent the best of F.L. Wright's design principles and philosophy behind Prairie Style. The meth-od used to collect informations for this study was based on books, articles, journals, and actual site visits. actual site visits.

Washed wastewater generated from the intermittent cleaning process of the three tunnel sites located in the Seoul area showed high concentrations of SS, $COD_{Cr}$, T-N, $NH_3-N$, $NO_3-N$, Zn, Cu, Cr(+6), Mn, Mg, Phenol, $CN^-$ and E-Coli based on the water quality analysis. These characteristics of the deteriorative wastewater depend on the sampling method, cleaning frequency, released amount of washing water, inner material of tunnel wall, traffic volume, and type of drainage systems. Gravitational separation experiment of SS with collected tunnel wastewater showed considerable removal of pollutants such as 80% of $COD_{Cr}$, 30% of T-N and 90% of T-P simultaneously. GAC isotherm test was conducted to remove dissolved portion of the pollutants, and resulted in high removal efficiencies above 80% of $COD_{Cr}$, T-N, Zn, Cu, Mn, Phenol, CN in the experimental condition of GAC dosage of $50g/1/{\ell}$.

The local heat transfer coefficient is experimentally investigated for the reflux condensation in a countercurrent flow between the steam-air mixture and the condensate, A single vertical tube has a geometry which is a length of 2.4m, inner diameter of 16.56mm and outer diameter of 19.05mm and is made of stainless steel. Air is used as a noncondensible gas. The secondary side has a shape of annulus around vertical tube and the lost heat by primary condensation is transferred to the coolant water. The local temperatures are measured at 11 locations in the vertical direction and each location has 3 measurement points in the radial direction, which are installed at the tube center, at the outer wall and at the coolant side. In three different pressures, the 27 sets of data are obtained in the range of inlet steam flow rate 1.348∼3.282kg/hr, of inlet air mass fraction 11.8∼55.0%. The investigation of the flooding is preceded to find the upper limit of the reflux condensation. Onset of flooding is lower than that of Wallis' correlation. The local heat transfer coefficient increases as the increase of inlet steam flow rate and decreases as the increase of inlet air mass fraction. As an increase of the system pressure, the active condensing region is contracted and the heat transfer capability in this region is magnified. The empirical correlation is developed by 165 data of the local heat transfer. As a result, the Jacob number and film Reynolds number are dominant parameters to govern the local heat transfer coefficient. The rms error is 17.7% between the results by the experiment and by the correlation.

Molecularly imprinted polymer (MIPs) membranes were prepared by UV polymerization to separate racemates with opposite physiological activity, and then its separation selectivity of racemates was carried out. Likewise, their properties were examined. Polycarbonate (PC) membrane was polymerized as small spot form in pore inner wall, but anodisc (AD) membrane was polymerized as film form with thickness 500~700 nm onto the membrane surface. Also the study on the separation selectivity of prepared MIPs membranes was carried out in L-Tryptophane (Trp) racemate solution. The results showed that AD MIPs membrane polymerized as a film form, which was achieved by solution polymerizaion consisting of over 90% cross-linking agent (ethylene glycol dimethacrylate; EGDMA) and under 30% dispersing agent (methanol; MeOH), had predominant 3.5 selectivity.
