We investigate the method to measure both the present value of the matter energy density contrast and the Hubble parameter directly from the measurement of the linear growth rate which is obtained from the large scale structure of the Universe. From this method, one can obtain the value of the nuisance cosmological parameter $\Omo$ (the present value of the matter energy density contrast) within 3% error if the growth rate measurement can be reached $z >3.5$. One can also investigate the evolution of the Hubble parameter without any prior on the value of $H_0$ (the current value of the Hubble parameter). Especially, estimating the Hubble parameter are insensitive to the errors on the measurement of the normalized growth rate $f \sigma_8$. However, this method requires the high $z$ ($z >3.5$) measurement of the growth rate in order to get the less than 5% errors on the measurements of $H(z)$ at $z \leq 1.2$ with the redshift bin $\Delta z = 0.2$. Thus, this will be suitable for the next generation large scale structure galaxy surveys like WFMOS and LSST.

Engineers are always concerned with life cycle costs for making important economic decisions through engineering action like reliability of products. Decisions during the reliability growth development of products involve trade-offs between invested costs and its returns. In order to find minimal LCC containing the reliability improvement cost, production cost, repair and replacement costs, and holding cost of spare parts for failure items we suggest in this paper relationship between development cost and sustaining cost in values of growth parameter $\beta$ of AMSAA model. This model is applied to the reliability growth program based on AMSAA model during R&D phase, the warranty activities of items and the block replacement policy for maintenance of items in avionic equipment.

In order to obtain the basic data for the preparation of yogurt containing ginseng component, the effect of ginseng component on cell growth of Lactobacillus casei YIT 9018 and on lactic acid production were investigated. Initial cell growth and acid production were markedly inhibited by the addition of ethanol extracts in the level of 8% into 15% skim milk. Crude saponin did not show any inhibitory effect on cell growth and acid production, but ether layer fraction showed inhibitory effect. It was thought to be more advantageous to add ginseng extracts after the fermentation of milk than before. The addition of ginseng extract at 8% level into liquid yogurt was most suitable in organoleptic test. Cell viability was not affected by the addition of ethanol extracts up to 8% level during storage of liquid yogurt.

A strain of Azotobacter species was isolated from the surface sea water of Kwang-yang Bay in Korea and was identified as Azotobacter insignis. In order to reveal the natural habitat of this microorganism, growth at various salt concentrations was tested with the result of 3% NaCl beins optimum. Only slight growth was detected in the absence of NaCl. This result was thought to prove (in part) that the natural habitat of the strain dealt with is sea water. Fairly good growth was obtained at 6% NaCl concentration. The study of effects of salt on the growth og this strain to various temperatures and pHs has shown that temperature $30{\circ}C and pH 7.0 are Optimum.

Natural convection of a two dimensional laminar steady-state incompressible fluid flow in a rectangular enclosure has been investigated numerically for low aspect ratios with the physical vapor transport crystal growth. Results show that for aspect ratio (Ar = L/H) range of $0.1{\leq}Ar{\leq}1.5$, with the increase in Grashof number by one order of magnitude, the total mass flux is much augmented, and is exponentially decayed with the aspect ratio. Velocity and temperature profiles are presented at the mid-width of the rectangular enclosure. It is found that the effect of Grashof number on mass transfer is less significant when the enclosure is shallow (Ar = 0.1) and the influence of aspect ratio is stranger when the enclosure is tall and the Grashof number is high. Therefore, the convective phenomena are greatly affected by the variation of aspect ratios.

The effect of soil fumigation on the growth, yield, root-rot and red discoloration of 2 year-old ginseng, Panax ginseng C. A. Meyer was investigated in the ginseng replanted fie14 Six soil fumigants, Cylone, Basamid, D-D, Dowfume MC-2, Telone C-17, and Vapam were applied in March, 1980, and 2 year-old ginseng plants were transplanted in April, 1981, and sampled in August, 1981. Growth an yields in Cylone and Basamid treated plots in the replanted soil were better than those in control. Especially, growth and yields of ginseng in Cyclone treated Plots were comparable to these in untreated virgin soil. Control effect of soil fumigants used on root-rot was in the order of Cylone, Basamid, Telone C-17, and the lest of them showed neglect fur effect. Frequency of red discoloration was 8% in Cyclone treated plots, 9% in Basamid treated plots 83.3% in the untreated ginseng replanted soil, and 2.5% in the untreated virgin soil.

The action and growth of soil microorganisms were studied in accordance with the leachates from leaf litter over the time lapse, and soil properties and species compositions in studied area were investigated. The investigations of soil microorganisms were made through dividing into two groupsbacterial and fungal groups. The abundance of soil microorganisms showed high correlation with organic matter(0.98) and total nitrogen(0.97) of soil. The amount of soil microorganisms was found the highest in litter layer and the next were humus and A layer in order. The bacterial growth rate in leachates from leaf letter was increased continuously by two weeks. The fungal growth rate was increased only for one week and after then it was decreased abruptly.

In the present work, a new approach is proposed for via interconnects of semiconductor devices, where multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) are used instead of conventional metals. In order to implement a selective growth of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) for via interconnect, the buried catalyst method is selected which is the most compatible with semiconductor processes. The cobalt catalyst for CNT growth is pre-deposited before via hole patterning, and to achieve the via etch stop on the thin catalyst layer (ca. 3nm), a novel 2-step etch scheme is designed; the first step is a conventional oxide etch while the second step chemically etches the silicon nitride layer to lower the damage of the catalyst layer. The results show that the 2-step etch scheme is a feasible candidate for the realization of CNT interconnects in conventional semiconductor devices.

In order to produce ${\gamma}-linolenic$ acid by Mucor sp. KCTC 8405P. the fungus was cultivated in fed-batch culture with two phases. i.e., growth in yeast-like form and induction to hyphal growth by pH shift of the culture medium during cultivation. The synchronous growth of the fungus into the appropriate sizes was important for the high density cell culture of this dimorphic fungus. Dissolved oxygen concentration in the medium did not affect degree of unsaturation of fatty acids and ${\gamma}-linolenic$ acid content. Under the culture conditions applied in this experiment. the fungus was found to produce 100 g/l dry mycelia containing 40% of the lipids, where ${\gamma}-linolenic$ acid comprised about 9% of the total extractable fatty acids.

As most fractures of ductile materials in metal forming processes occurred due to the results of evolution of internal damage - void nucleation, growth and coalescence. In this paper, an approximate yield criterion for voided (porous) anisotropic ductile materials is developed. The proposed approximate yield function is based on Gurson's yield function in conjunction with the Hosford's non-quadratic anisotropic yield criterion in order to consider the characteristic of anisotropic properties of matrix material. The associated flow rules are presented and the laws governing void growth with strain are derided. Using the proposed model void growth of an anisotropic sheet under biaxial tensile loading and its effect on sheet metal formability are investigated. The yield surface of voided anisotropic sheet and void growth with strain are predicted and compared with the experimental results.
