The optimum conditions of second harmonic generation (SHG) can be successfully achieved experimentally using single pass and double pass methods of a pumping beam. The beam has a power of several Watts radiated by a DOFA (Diode Laser Oscillator & Fiber Amplifier) system, which is a high power CW wavelength tunable infrared laser system, in a PPLN (Periodically Poled MgO doped Lithium Niobate) nonlinear crystal. In the case of a single pass method, the parameters are the wavelength of 535 nm for SHG and the output power of 245 mW generated from the pumping input beam with wavelength of 1070 nm and the power of 2.45 W at phase matching temperature of $108.9^{\circ}C$. The conversion efficiency of SHG was 10%. In order to enhance the output of SHG, the double pass method of the SHG system of a PPLN using a concave mirror for the retroreflection and a pair of wedged flat windows for phase compensation was also presented. In this double pass system, we obtained the SHG output beam with the wavelength of 535 nm and the maximum power of 383 mW at optimum phase matching temperature of $108.5^{\circ}C$ by using an incident pumping beam with wavelength of 1070 nm and the power of 2.45 W. The maximum conversion efficiency is 15.6%, which is more than that of the single pass method.

Comparison on the genomic structure and phylogenetic relationship of the Hsp88 genes from P. tenuipes Jochoen-1, P. tenuipes, C. militaris and C. pruinosa was described. The Hsp88 genes from the three entomopathogenic strains, P. tenuipes Jocheon-1(strain), P. tenuipes(original species), and C. militaris contain the identical genomic structure, namely 5 introns and 6 exons with the length of 13, 62, 32, 1,438, 306, 288 nucleotides encoding 713 amino acid residues, whereas in case of C. pruinosa, it contains 4 introns and 5 exons with the length of 13, 62, 32, 1,744, 288 nucleotides encoding 713 amino acid residues. The genomic DNA length of the Hsp88 genes from P. tenuipes Jocheon-1 and P. tenuipes are both 2,600 nucleotides long in size. The Hsp88 genes from C. militaris and C. pruinosa are 2,582, 2,576 nucleotides long in size, respectively. Hsp88 genes of the P. tenuipes Jochoen-1, P. tenuipes, C. militaris and C. pruinosa also contain the conserved ATP-binding domain. Phylogenetic analysis of the Hsp genes of the four strains tested in this study showed that the fungal Hsp88 is divided into two separate clades, ascomycetes and deutromycete. Within the ascomycetes fungal clade, the P. tenuipes Jochoen-1 and P. tenuipes formed a subgroup, on the other hand, C. militaris and C. pruinosa formed another subgroup. Pair-wise comparison of P. tenuipes Jocheon-1 Hsp88 with those of P. tenuipes, C. militaris and C. pruinosa Hsp88s revealed significant identity in deduced amino acid sequence among these strains. The P. tenuipes Jocheon-1 Hsp88 showed 99% identity with the P. tenuipes, 97% identity with the C. militaris, and 98% identity with the C. pruinosa.

Finite element modeling of composite structures may be cumbersome due to complex distributions of reinforcements. In this paper, an efficient scheme is proposed that can generate periodic meshes for the composite structures. Regular meshes with hexahedral finite elements are first prepared, and the elements are then trimmed to fit external surfaces of reinforcements in the composite structures. The trimmed hexahedral finite elements located at interfaces between the matrix and the reinforcements correspond to polyhedral finite elements, which allow an arbitrary number of nodes and faces in the elements. Because the trimming process is consistently conducted by means of consistent algorithms, the elements of the reinforcements are automatically compatible with those of the matrices. With the additional consideration of periodicity of reinforcements in a representative volume element(RVE), the proposed scheme provides periodic meshes in an efficient manner, which are compatible for each pair of periodic boundaries of the RVE. Therefore, periodic boundary conditions for the RVE are enforced straightforwardly. Numerical examples demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme for finite element modeling of complex composite structures.

Background: Since polymerase chain reaction(PCR) was devised by Saiki in 1985, it has been used extensively in various fields of molecular biology. Clinically, PCR is especially useful in situation when microbiological or serological diagnosis is limited by scanty amount of causative agents. Thus, PCR can provide rapid and sensitive way of detecting M. tuberculosis in tuberculosis pleurisy which is diagnosed in only about 60 % of cases by conventional method. Method: To evaluate the diagnostic usefulness of PCR in tuberculosis pleurisy, The results of PCR was compared with those of conventional method, including pleural biopsy. The pleural effusion fluid was collected from 7 proven patients, 7 clinically suspected patients and control group(7 patients with malignant effusion). We extracted DNA from pleural fluid by modified method of Eisennach method(1991). The amplification target for PCR was 123 base pair DNA, a part of IS6110. Result: 1) Sensitivity of PCR: We detected upto 50fg DNA. 2) In patients with pleural effusion of proven tuberculosis, the positive rate of PCR was 85.7%(6/7). In patients with pleural effusion of clinically suspected tuberculosis, the positive rate was 71.5%(5/7). In control group, positive rate was 0%(0/7). Conclusion: We concluded that PCR method could be a very rapid, sensitive and specific one for diagnosis of M tuberculosis in pleural effusion. Further studies should be followed for the development of easier method.

The thermodynamic dissociation constants of $[Co(en)]_3Cl_3\;and\;[Co(NH_3)_6Cl_3$ in aqueous solutions at $25{\circ}$ and at the pressure from 1 bar to 2000 bars were measured by conductometric method. The dissociation constants were increased with pressure elevation because of volume decreasing by the formation of charged ions during dissociation reaction. That is, the $pK^T$ values of $[Co(en)]_3Cl_3$ were 2.16 for I bar, 2.08 for 500 bars, 2,08 for 1000 bars, 2.05 for 1500 bars and 2.03 for 2000 bars, respectively and those of $[Co(NH_3)_6Cl_3$ were 2.02 for 1 bar 1.96 for 500 bars, 1.90 for 1000 bars, 1. 88 for 1500 bars and 1. 87 for 2000 bars, respectively. Comparing and analyzing the values of Stokes' radii and $K^T$, the formation of ion pair compound was affected by not only the electrostatic interaction, but also the Interal Conjugate Base(ICB), which was increased by the elevation of the pressure.

Poly(ether-block-amide) 1657 (PEBAX 1657) blended membranes with molecular weight 400 poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG 400) were prepared and their permeability was tested for the gases $N_2$, $O_2$, $CH_4$, $CO_2$, and $SO_2$ by the time-lag method. The permeation characteristics were investigated in terms of diffusivity and solubility, which are dominant factors for gas transport. With the addition of PEG 400, the permeability of all the gases increased and also the ideal selectivity for several pair gases was enhanced. In particular, selectivity for $CO_2/N_2$ ranged from 53.2 (pristine PEBAX 1657 membrane) to 84.1 (50% PEG 400 added), for $SO_2/CO_2$ from 38.9 to 50.7, and for $CO_2/CH_4$ from 17.7 to 31.4. The increase of both permeability and selectivity is mainly because of the increase of solubility of the gases, especially $CO_2$ and $SO_2$. To obtain durability against water vapor, glutaraldehyde (GA) was added to the PEBAX 1657/PEG 400 blended membranes. As a result, permeability decreased owing to a reduction of the free volume and ether oxide units, which are the main factors in elevating the permeability for the blended membranes, and selectivity decrease however; we believe that the durability of the resulting membranes would be increased.

According to my research about Janlgu(絶句) and Sijo(時調), they have not used the same methods to make the phrases (句) within of Sika(詩歌). In this thesis I shown that Ullsi(律詩) and Sijo have used a similar methods to make the phrases. However. the main assertion of this thesis is to show the fact that Sijo has changed into Kasa(歌辭) the same way Ullsi has changed into Baeull(排律). I have found that Ullsi and Baeull are different from Sijo and Kasa. Jaulgu and Sijo don't have any similarities except the use of their short sentences. Ullsi is similar to a poem with three lines in each verse. To separate the poem with three lines in each verse to three parts of the first stanza. the last stanza(結聯). and how the middle stanza contrasts (related to the phrase or stanza of poems which have a pair.). I have found out how the poem with three lines in verse is made. The middle phrase of Sijo is made up of complete opposites. I think that Sijo has the same relation. with Ullsi. Also. Kasa is made up opposites. Antithesis is a kind of way to make Ullsi by phrase and clause. I have found the antithesis in the middle phrase of Sijo. Kasa is made up antithesis and is the relativity of Ullsi and Baeull and the relativity of Sijo and Kasa are explained by antithesis. As Ullsi changed to BaeulL Sijo has changed to Kasa. They have the same method of making phrases. Some have insisted that Sijo was not from Hansi. I don't agree with that. Even if Ullsi is not from Sijo. this thesis has proven that the method of making phrases of Ullsi and the method of making phrases of Sijo are very similar. In this thesis. I have found out that Ullsi and Baeull are very similar with Sijo and Kasa. I think that these old types of Chinese poems have affected Korean Culture. So. in this thesis. I have tried to show just a little fact about this old type of Chinese poems and how it has affected Korean Culture.

As a forming method for curved hull plates more efficient than the flame bending, mechanical bending using multi point press forming and die-less forming is discussed in this paper. the mechanical forming is a flexible manufacturing system for automatically forming of hull parts. It is especially suited to varied curved parts. This paper discusses a multiple point pressing machine composed of a pair of reconfigurable punches in order to achieve the rapid forming of curved hull plates using division forming and presents how forming information is obtained from the given design surface. Although the mechanical forming can be efficient in the metal forming, spring back after pressing is a phenomenon which must be carefully considered when quantifying the process variables. If the spring back is not accurately controlled, the fabricated shell plate cannot meet assembly tolerance. This paper describes the principles to calculate the proper stroke of each punch at the divided areas. the strokes are determined by an iterative process of sequential pressing and spring back compensation from an unfolded flat shape to its given design surface. FEA(finite element analysis) is used to simulate the spring back of the plate and the IDA(iterative displacement adjustment) method adjusts the offset of pressing punches from the deformation results and the design surface. The shape deviations of two surfaces due to spring back are compensated by integrated system using FEA and IDA method. For the practical application, It is aimed to develop an integrated system that can automatically perform the compensation process and calculate strokes of punches of the double sides' reconfigurable multiple-press machine and some experimental results obtained with mechanical bending are presented.

This study describes the methodology that improves the accuracy of the 3D object-space data extracted from IKONOS satellite images by improving the accuracy of a RPC(Rational Polynomial Coefficient) model. For this purpose, we developed the algorithm to adjust a RPC model, and could improve the accuracy of a RPC model with this algorithm and geographically well-distributed GCPs(Ground Control Points). Furthermore, when a RPC model was adjusted with this algorithm, the effects of geographic distribution and the number of GCPs on the accuracy of the adjusted RPC model was tested. The results showed that the accuracy of the adjusted RPC model is affected more by the distribution of GCPs than by the number of GCPs. On the basis of this result, the algorithm using pseudo_GCPs was developed to improve the accuracy of a RPC model in case the distribution of GCPs was poor and the number of GCPs was not enough to adjust the RPC model. So, even if poorly distributed GCPs were used, the geographically adjusted RPC model could be obtained by using pseudo_GCPs. The less the pseudo_GCPs were used -that is, GCPs were more weighted than pseudo_GCPs in the observation matrix-, the more accurate the adjusted RPC model could be obtained, Finally, to test the validity of these algorithms developed in this study, we extracted 3D object-space coordinates using RPC models adjusted with these algorithms and a stereo pair of IKONOS satellite images, and tested the accuracy of these. The results showed that 3D object-space coordinates extracted from the adjusted RPC models was more accurate than those extracted from original RPC models. This result proves the effectiveness of the algorithms developed in this study.

Humans process aesthetic functions of objects such as form, size, color, and texture through vision, while at the same time observe them with a symbolic function by a new psychological interpretation based on their past experience. Therefore, it is more important to study and understand the thoughts and psychological influences of how humans perceive with their eyes than what humans simply look with them. With this research purpose in the background, this study will demonstrate in detail the cognitive characteristics of analog and digital images as a symbolic function with a "formative" point of view. Five hypotheses were established, which were proven through the following tests: smartphone, most frequently used in our daily lives, is simplified to a two-dimensional line drawing form, which is set to instances where the R(radius) is applied to the horizontal line of the two-dimensional form of smartphone, where Run-in-R(radius) is applied, and R(radius) rounding is applied to the edges of those shapes. The shapes were combined to form 12 pairs, which was used in a test to the test subjects. As a result, some human characteristics were observed; in specific, some helped prove objectively how humans perceived analog and digital images as psychologically stronger as a symbolic function. If people's thoughts and feelings gained through such study could be stored in database as one value and be provided to product designers, I believe it could be developed into design form as a basic emotional design that consumers desire.
