It is well known that the targeted fuel efficiency could only be achieved by more than 40% reduction of the vehicle weight through improved design and extensive utilization of lightweight materials. In order to obtain the goal of the weight reduction of automobiles, the researches about lighter and stronger rear sub-frame have been studied without sacrificing the safety of rear sub-frame. In this study, the weight reduction design process of rear sub-frame could be proposed based on the variation of von-Mises stress contour by substituting an AA6061 (aluminum 6061 alloy) having tensile strength of 310 MPa grade instead of SAPH440 steels. In addition, the stress ratio variations (stress over fatigue limit) of the rear sub-frame were examined and compared carefully. It could be reached that this approach method could be well established and be contributed for light-weight design guide and the optimum design conditions of the automotive rear sub-frame development.

The weight reduction design process of tension links could be studied based on the variation of tension, bending and torsional stiffness after substituting STKM11A steels with aluminum alloys (A356) with tensile strength of 245 MPa. The existed I-beam type link component may have a weak point for loads applied from a special direction. Therefore, it was investigated to the optimal shape of the link component that could withstand loads from all directions and at the same time reduce weight. Various types of link shapes were designed and analyzed, and the optimized shape was found. The optimized design can reduce over 40% of the original steel link weight, and it could be suggested for light-weight design guides and safe design conditions for the development of tension links.

The present study was carried out to determine the effects of lighting directions and light intensities on the growth of in vitro plantlets of strawberry, potato and lily. The growth of plantlets was affected by two different lighting systems, downward and sideward lighting system. There were no difference for the plantlets of strawberry regardless of lighting directions. However, leaf area, fresh weight and dry weight have increased as the light intensity increased. Also, plant height and root length on node culture of potato decreased at high intensity of the sideward lighting, while thickness of stem and root was thicker, fresh weight and dry weight were heavier, and leaf area was increased. Also, bulblet formation on scale culture of lily has been abundant, and fresh weight and dry weight were increased. Thus, the sideward lighting system which loaded three stories for culture vessels with raising light intensity into culture vessels instead of conventional downward lighting system promoted growth and raised the efficiency of production of high quality microplant.

Changes of Physicochemical compositions in domestic broiler chickens of different marketing standard range from 5ho (Korean traditional weight unite for chicken) to 16ho were assessed. The moisture contents of chicken breast were 74.00 ∼ 76.15% and there were no significant trend with weight difference. The chicken breasts of the light weight range(5ho∼8ho) contained high fat contents of 2.35∼2.78%. The chicken breasts of the heavy weight range(12ho∼16ho) contained low fat contents of 0.47 ∼0.66%. The chicken breasts of the heavy weight range had more protein contents than those of the light weight range. The chicken breast of the light weight range showed low Warner Braztler shear force (WBS) values when compared to those taken from chicken of the heavy weight range. However. there was no significant differences in water ho1ding capacity (WHC ) and cooking loss(p>0.05). In meat color the L* values (lightness) were 61.83∼71.33 and there were no significant differences for samples in different weight range except 5ho and 13ho. The b* valuers (yellowness) were 1.73 ∼6.79 and the values decreased with increasing chicken weight. In mineral composition. calcium and iron contents were decreased with increasing chicken weight. Phosphate, potassium and magnesium contents increased as weight ranges increased. The thigh meat separated from 11ho to 16ho had a similar tendency. In chemical composition(%). WBS, WBC. cooking loss, meat colors and mineral contents, compacted to breast in the same weight ranges. The results from this study would provide a basic information for establishment of marketing standard of chicken.

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of light intensities on the growth responses, carbohydrate contents and the characteristics of leaf gas exchange in Miscanthus sinensis and Pennisetum purpurascens. The plant height and leaf length were increased to about 30% in the sun. However, those were reduced severely in the shade, and leaf necrosis was also observed. The representative growth index and the dry weight of 2 species were 50% higher than shade and the rate was reduced according to the decrease of light intensities. Total carbohydrate contents showed very similar changes to that of dry weight. However, any notable influences were observed at above the light intensities of 250~500${\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$ in the half shade. The size of spikes and the earliest spiking appeared in the sun and the spike color was decolorized as decreased in light intensities, irrespective of species. Photosynthetic rate of 2 species was 2 times higher in the sun than those in the shade, and it showed the typical photoresponses of sun plant. Stomatal conductances and intercelluar $CO_2$ concetration showed similar changes to that of photosynthetic rate. On the contrary, vapor pressure deficit was increased more in the shade than in the sun.

Development of root galls of clubroot disease on Chinese cabbage seedlings was first observed 17days after inoculation of Plasmodiophora brassicae at $25^{\circ}C$ 4-11days earlier than at 5, 20, 3$0^{\circ}C$ and 35$^{\circ}C$. Subsequent enlargement of root galls was also fastest at $25^{\circ}C$ and 2$0^{\circ}C$ but delayed at 15$^{\circ}C$ and 3$0^{\circ}C$ or above. Chinese cabbage seedlings with root gall formation showed reduction in number of leaves above ground fresh weight and amount of root hairs but increase in root weight, Root galls development was highest at soil moisture level of 80% of maximum soil moisture capacity than at 60% and 100%. Optimum soil pH for root gall development was pH 6 although root galls were formed at a range of pH 5 to 8. Period of light illumination also affected root gall development with the greatest gall development at 12hr/12hr in light/dark period and the least at 8hr/16hr. Site of root gall formation and gall shape did not differ greatly among treatments of temperature soil moisture pH and light experiments.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of light intensities on the growth and net photosynthesis of Piper kauzura under different shading levels : 0％, 50％, 70％ and 90％ of sunlight. Mortality rate was lowest under a 70％ shading level but 0％ and 90％ shading levels were about 46％ and 53％ each respectively. Plant height was shorter and leaf size was smaller and yellowish under a 0％ shading level but increased when light intensity was decreased. However, under a 90％ shading level, growth of Piper kauzura was inferior to other treatments. Top fresh weight was about 11.24g under a 50％ shading level and about two times higher than that observed in about 6.6g under a 90％ shading level. Root fresh weight was about 7.7g under a 0％ shading level and was about two times higher than that showed in about 3.84g and 3.64g under 90％ and 70％ respectively. Total chlorophyll content and chlorophyll a/b rate were increased when light intensity was decreased. Net Photosynthesis achieved the highest under a 70％ shading level and maximum photosynthetic photon flux density was 150 molㆍm/sup -2/ㆍs/sup -1/. Therefore, growth of Piper kauzura was good under 50∼70％ shading, Meaning that it is an indoor plant that could be highly utilized.

Green roof system is classified as intensive greening, extensive greening or mix of intensive-extensive greening. Recently, light-weigh green roof has been performed actively, because buildings have been considered loads, design and maintenance. This study was conducted to design soil depth for light-vegetation block with using bottom-ash. As a result, it was found that growth of plant had no direct effect on soil depth even it was less than 10cm. Soil depth having under 5cm could be integration of plant roots and vegetation blocks. It was also possible to grow organic vegetables through the experiment of planting. According to this experiment, as light-vegetation block with bottom-ash was used for planting, it makes design shallow soil depth. The results will help install green roof system conveniently not only new buildings but also used buildings.
