Laser Raman scattering method has been applied to measure equivalence ratio of methane/air mixture in injected spray. We used high power KrF excimer laser$(\lambda=248nm)$ and a high gain ICCD camera to capture low intensity signal. Raman shifts and Raman scattering cross -sections of $H_2,\;O_2,\;N_2,\;CO_2,\;CH_4\;and\;C_3H_8$ are measured precisely. Our results show an excellent agreement with those of other groups. Mole fraction measurement of $O_2\;and\;N_2$ from air shows that $O_2:N_2=0.206:0.794$. We used gas injector which was operated at 1 bar. Methane is used as a fuel. Spray region is $10mm\times37mm$ and this region is divided into 80 points. In Raman signals are obtained and ensemble averaged for each point. 3-d and contour plot of distribution of equuivalence ratio is presented. Our measured results show that the equivalence ratio of methane/air mixture in methane-rich region is reasonable. However, more study is necessary for methane-lean region because background noise level is almost same as Raman intensity of methane.

As LNG tank is operated around $-162^{\circ}C$, an experimental approach on the cryogenic temperature tensile and fatigue strengths of SUS304L lap joint weld is very important at the design stage of membrane type LNG tank. In this study, in order to estimate the tensile and fatigue strengths of SUS304L lap joint weld at cryogenic temperature condition, tensile and fatigue tests were conducted. Also, S-N curves are presented with statistical testing method recommended by JSME. As a result of the experimental approach, the d￡sign guide of fatigue strength is proposed and that is expected to be useful for membrane type LNG tank design.

Conformity between the femoral component and tibial insert within the knee replacement may be measured in frontal or sagittal view, and shows differences in the curvature radius of the femoral component depending on the flexion angle, i.e., curvature radius has a complex effect on contact stress. Therefore, it is essential to confirm how the curvature radius effects contact stress, and provide an important variable to reduce contact stress. This study correlated contact stress with curvature radius measured in frontal and the sagittal views and confirmed the effect of curvature radius for assessment of the Newly Designed Unicompartment Knee Replacement (NDUKR). Finite element models were constructed for NDUKR and $Zimmer^{(R)}$ Unicompartment High Flex Knee Replacement system (ZUKR), incorporating the curvature radius as measured in either frontal or sagittal view. The femoral component had 1200N of compressive load applied approximately 1.65xbody weight. Contact stress was predicted at flexion angles $0^{\circ}C$, $30^{\circ}C$, $60^{\circ}C$, $90^{\circ}C$ and $120^{\circ}C$, for NDUKR: 42, 47.7, 47.7, 51.2, and 54.1 MPa, and ZUKR: 41.2, 49.5, 53.2, 54.3, and 57.4 MPa, respectively. Correlation analysis showed the influence of curvature radius measured from the sagittal view was larger than for frontal view.

DLC (Diamond Like Carbon) films show very desirable surface interactions with high hardness, low friction coefficient, and good wear-resistance properties. The friction behavior of hydrogenated DLC film is dependent on tribological environment, especially surrounding temperature. In this work, the tribological behaviors of DLC (Diamond-like carbon) films, prepared by the radio frequency plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (RF-PECVD) method, were studied in elevated temperatures. The ball-on-disk tests with DLC films on steel specimens were conducted at a sliding speed of 60 rpm, a load of 10N, and surrounding various temperatures of $25^{\circ}C,\;40^{\circ}C,\;55^{\circ}C\;and\;75^{\circ}C$. The results show considerable dependency of DLC tribological parameters on temperature. The friction coefficient decreased as the surrounding temperature increased. After tests the wear tracks of hydrogenated DLC film were analyzed by optical microscope, scanning electron spectroscopy (SEM) and Raman spectroscopy. The surface roughness and 3-D images of wear track were also obtained by an atomic force microscope (AFM).

$(Ba_{0.85}Ca_{0.15})(Ti_{0.9}Zr_{0.1})O_3$ + 0.04 wt% $CeO_2$ lead-free ceramics were prepared by conventional oxide-mixed method and the effect of sintering temperature on microstructure, dielectric and piezoelectric properties were investigated. Improved piezoelectric properties have been observed at $1,400^{\circ}C$ sintering temperature which show the optimal electrical properties, $k_p{\sim}0.412$, $d_{33}{\sim}316pC/N$, $Q_m{\sim}144$, ${\varepsilon}_r{\sim}3,345$ and $T_c{\sim}85^{\circ}C$. These results show that the sintering temperature plays an important role in piezoelectric properties.

In this paper, in order to develop optimum composition ceramics with excellent piezoelectric properties, $(Na_{0.525}K_{0.443}Li_{0.037})(Nb_{0.823}Sb_{0.08}Ta_{0.037})O_3+0.3wt%Bi_2O_3+0.4wt%Fe_2O_3$ lead-free piezoelectric ceramics were synthesized by conventional soild-state method. The calcination temperature of columbite precursors were fabricated at temperature range from $950^{\circ}C$ to $1,150^{\circ}C$ and sintering aids with low melting point were added to densify these ceramics. Effect of calcination temperature on dielectric and piezoelectric properties of ceramics were investigated. the ceramics with B-site columbite precursors at temperature of $1,100^{\circ}C$ obtained the optimal values of $d_{33}=272$ [pC/N], $k_p=0.51$, $Q_m=102$, ${\varepsilon}_r=978$.

The optimum conditions for measuring cadmium content of less than 0.2ppm by flame atomic absorption spectrophotometry were investigated. The cadmium in urine was extracted by APDC-MIBK for the analysis by atomic absorption spectrophotometry after ashing them by a wet method. 1. Optimum conditions by APDC-MIBK and DDTC-MIBK extractions. The acidic aqueous solution was prepared with appropriate amount of 0.IN nitric acid, 5ml of 25% (W/V) sodium potasstum tartarate, 10ml of saturated ammonium sulfate, and 2ml of 2% APDC(or 1 ml of 5% DDTC) chelating agent. The total volume of solution was adjusted to 55 ml and pH to $2{\sim}10$ (or$7{\sim}10$). The aqueous solution was extracted with 10ml MIBK. Concentration of Triton X-100 did not effect the absorbance for APDC-MIBK extraction of cadmium, but absorbance decreased as the concentration increased for DDTC-MIBK extraction. The sensitivity and detection limits for the cadmium determination from APDC-MIBK extraction were 0.0038ppm and 0.0102, 0.0022ppm and 0.0116 for DDTC-MIBK, and 0.0132ppm and 0.0034 for 0.1N nitric acid. APDC-MIBK and DDTC-MIBK extractions were 3 times higher than 0.1N nitric acid for the sensitivity. 2. Excretion of cadmium in 24-hour urine by APDC-MIBK extraction. Determination of cadmium in urine by atomic absorption spectrophotometry of A.A. (Cd=2 mA) mode and B.C. (Cd=4 mA) mode and B.C. (Cd=4mA, $D_2=20mA$) mode showed some difference (p<0.05). The difference of cadmium determination and recovery according to method of standard additions and standard calibration curve method in urine was not significant (p>0.05, $93.48{\pm}11.78%,\;94.83{\pm}22.00%$). Excretion of cadmium in 24-hour urine collection from normal person and variance analysis within measurement variation was not significant (p>0.05), but between interindividual was significant (0.05). Determination of cadmium content by two different methods of flame atomic absorption spectrophotometry and dithizone colorimetry showed that the results from the two methods can be described by a regression line with a good correlation (y=1.0153x-0.2927, x=Cd by D.C., y=Cd by A.A.S., $r=0.8651^*$, p<0.01).

Raw pine-mushrooms (Tricholoma matsutake Sing.) of four grades and those frozen were analyzed for proximate composition, smell pattern, volatile flavor compounds, and sensory evaluation. Proximate compositions of raw pine-mushrooms (A-C, regular grade) were $89.48{\sim}90.77%$ moisture, 6.81% ash excluding D (below regular grade) sample, $2.24{\sim}2.52%$ crude lipid, and $16.19{\sim}20.01%$ crude protein. Proximate compositions of frozen pine-mushrooms preserved for 6 months at -20 and $-70^{\circ}C$ showed no difference compared with raw pine-mushrooms. Results of smell pattern and multidimensional analysis revealed raw pine-mushrooms showed no differences among samples, but frozen pine-mushrooms differed significantly depending on the grade. Volatile flavor compounds of pine-mushrooms were analyzed using a purge and trap method with GC/MSD. Twenty-nine volatile compounds were identified, among which alcohols such as 1-octen-3-ol, 2-octen-1-ol, 3-methyl-butanol, and n-octanol were commonly found in all pine-mushroom samples. In sensory attributes, raw pine-mushrooms were not significantly different at 5% level, and sample D of frozen pine-mushrooms scored lower than samples $A{\sim}C$.

Cyanidin-3-glucoside (C3G) and cyanidin-3-rutinoside (C3R) were isolated by high-performance countercurrent chromatography (HPCCC) using a two-phase solvent system composed of tert-butyl methyl ether/n-butanol/acetonitrile/water/trifluoroacetic acid (1 : 3 : 1 : 5 : 0.01, v/v) to give pure C3G (34.1 mg) and C3R (14.3 mg) from 1.5 g crude mulberry fruit extract. Using the pure C3G and C3R, a reliable high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method was developed and validated to determine the C3G and C3R contents in mulberry fruit. C3G and C3R were separated simultaneously using an Eclipse XDB-C18 column ($4.6{\times}250mm$ I.D., $5{\mu}m$) coupled with a photodiode array detector (PDA). The gradient elution of the mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile (0.5% formic acid) and water (0.5% formic acid) was applied (1.0 mL/min), and the detection wavelength was 520 nm. The calibration curves of C3G and C3R showed good linearity (both with $r^2=0.9996$) in the concentration range $15.625-500{\mu}g/mL$, and the relative standard deviations (RSD%) of intra- and inter-day variability were in the ranges 2.1 - 8.2% and 4.1 - 17.1%, respectively. The accuracies were ranged 96.5 - 102.6% for C3G and C3R, respectively. The developed HPLC method was used to determine the contents of C3G and C3R in newly harvested mulberry from eight different provinces of Korea.

These experiments were carried out to study influences of the kind of yeasts and of brewing condition on fermentation of Takjoo mash. The results obtained were as follows: 1. Kind of yeasts and the number of yeasts in mash. When the first stage mash was fermented at $20^{\circ}C$ for $1.5{\sim}2.5$ days and at $25^{\circ}C$, $30^{\circ}C$ for $1{\sim}2days$, in the second stage mash that was fermented at high temperature, the number of yeasts was less as compared with the case of fermentation at low temperature, but the living yeasts number of Takjoo yeast strain Dm-1 was more than those of sake yeast, strain No. 7. 2. Kind of yeasts and composition of ripened mash. 1) In the secondstage mash that was fermented at high temperature($30{\sim}35^{\circ}C$), alcohol percentage of ripened mash using the selected Takjoo yeasts (strains: Dm-1, Y-1) was remarkably higher than the case of another yeasts (strains: No.7, No.6, No. 396, No. 1). 2) Acidity of mash had a little differences between strain Dm-1 and strain No. 7. 3) In the second stage mash that was fermented at high temperature ($30{\sim}35^{\circ}C$), the amount of Formol-N using strain Dm-1 was remarkably less than strain No.7. 3. Brewing condition and alcohol percentage of mash. 1) The fit amount of wheat bran Kuk addition per material was 3 percentage and it was adequate to use the mixture of wheat flour Kuk 20 percentage and wheat bran Kuk 1-2 percentage. 2) Though brewing concentration of the first stage mash was duiluted by twice of general brewing concentration, the yeast reproduction was normal. 3) In addition of wheat flour $80{\sim}140g$ per 180ml water, alcohol percentage of the mash increased almost propotionally according to the increase of the amount of wheat flour. 4) It was recognized that three stage brewing was superior in method to two stage brewing at present.
