The primary purpose of using bracings is to improve the lateral rigidity of main structural system, i.e., columns and beams, by reinforciing them with much smaller members. In conventional design methods brackings are considered as tension-only members, since difficulties arise in the analysis when the P-.DELTA. effects and post-buckling behaviour of the bracing members are taken into account. This is particulary true fox X-bracings. Recently, however, both analytical and experimental studies have been conducted to investigate the more precise and real behaviour of bracing members, especially for the nonlinear and plastic behaviour under cyclic loads. In this study, an analytical model is proposed to investigate the nonlinear behavior of steel bracing members subjected to cyclic loads. Results of the analysis were compared with previous experimental results, and good agreements were obtained between these results.

We fabricated a P-I-i-I-N $GaAs/Al_{0.35}Ga_{0.65}As$waveguide phase modulator with significant phase shift for the TE mode but negligible for the TM mode. We selected the P-I-i-I-N structure to cause a phase shift about the TM mode. The wavelength of $\lambda=1.55$\mu\textrm{m}$ was measured for both the TE and TM modes, respectively. As a result, the measured phase shift efficiency ($\Delta\phi$) by using the Fabry-Perot resonance method was $7.9^{\circ}/V.mm$ for TE-polarized light. Also, no modulation was observed for TM-polarized light.

Associated with microbial decontamination and quarantine treatment of dried red pepper, the samples was gamma-irradiated (5, 10 kGy) and fumigated (methyl bromide/MeBr, phosphine/$PH_3$) to compare their Hunter's color (L, a, b, ${\Delta}E$) and sensory properties by types (whole, powder, pericarp, seed) during storage under room conditions($18{\pm}12^{\circ}C$). Whole pepper maintained higher lightness (L value) than other groups, while powdered pepper showed higher redness (a value) during storage. Immediately after treatments there was little difference in the overall color difference (${\Delta}E$) among the groups. After 8 months, a higher redness was observed in $PH_3$ group of whole pepper and 5 kGy group of powdered pepper, respectively(p<0.05). Redness of irradiated pericarps was apparently reduced following 8 months of storage and a similar pattern was found in fumigated samples. The yellowness (b value) of pepper seed was lowest in 10 kGy sample (p<0.05), but insignificant difference was observed among treatment groups with storage time. Sensory properties of whole and powdered peppery were little changed by both treatments under commercial conditions. Sensory scores of irradiated or fumigated samples were higher than that of non-treated control with storage time, which was more significant in the powdered than in the whole samples.

The objective of this research was to investigate the curing behavior and adhesion performance of urea-melamine-formaldehyde (UMF) resin for the four types of UMF-1, UMF-2, UMF-3, and UMF-4 which synthesized by the staged addition of melamine. Also, various network structures of these resin types were discussed based on their different curing behavior and adhesion performance. The curing behavior was evaluated by DMTA and thermal stability was checked by TGA. Adhesion performance was evaluated by dry and wet shear strengths and the pH value of each cured resin was checked to see its effect on the adhesion performance. The results indicated that the UMF-1 resin type by the addition of melamine initially with the urea and formaldehyde at the same F/(U+M) rate showed the lowest thermal stability, rigidity (${\Delta}E^{\prime}$), temperature of tan ${\delta}$ maximum ($T_{tan}\;_{\delta}$), and wet shear strength, and pH value of cured resin. In wet shear strength, however, the UMF-4 resin type appears to be slightly higher than UMF-1 resin type.

The encapsulatpd A. niger grew up inside the capsule and mycelia penetrated through the pore of the capsule membrane. The mycelia on the capsule wall became loose when the carbon source and oxygen were deficient in the medium. On the contrary, the production rate increased and mycelia made a lump tightly when the carbon source and oxygen were sufficient. Namely, number of proper capsule of unit volume in the medium was existed. The phenomenon which was swelled of capsule membrane in cultivation could prevented by adding CaCl2 into the medium. According to the time adding CaCl2 into the medium, the production rate of citric acid was influenced. In case of adding CaCl2 into the medium at 7th day cultivation, the production yield of citric acid was increased about 40 percent higher than that of adding CaCl2 initially. The production yield of citric acid using encapsulated A. niger of flask culture was influenced with oxygen supply. The production yield of citric acid ($\Delta$p/$\Delta$s) of the flask culture was increased 3.88 time by using T-flask instead of parafilm sealed flask. Therefore, the productivity and consumption rate concerning production which was taken carbon source were increased when oxygen supply was sufficient. The production of citric acid using encapsulated A. niger was increased average 30 percent higher than that of bead in between 6th and 13th day cultivation.
