Spent nuclear fuel, which can degrade during long-term storage, must be transported intact in normal transport conditions. In this regard, many studies, including those involving Multi-Modal Transportation Test (MMTT) campaigns, have been conducted. In order to transport the spent fuel safely, a tie-down structure for supporting and transporting a cask containing the spent fuel is essential. To ensure its structural integrity, a method for finding an optimum conceptual design for the tie-down structure is presented. An optimized transportation test model of a tie-down structure for the KORAD-21 metal cask is derived based on the proposed optimization approach, and the transportation test model is manufactured by redesigning the optimized model to enable its producibility. The topology optimization approach presented in this paper can be used to obtain optimum conceptual designs of tie-down structures developed in the future.

In 2019, 5.6% of the total energy produced worldwide came from wind. Offshore wind generation is still a small portion of the total wind generation, yet its growth is exponential. Higher availability of sites, larger producibility and potentially lower environmental impacts make offshore wind generation attractive. On the other hand, as the water depth increases, fixed foundations are no more viable, and the new frontier is that of floating foundations. This paper brings an overview of why and how offshore wind energy should move deep water; it contains material from the Keynote Lecture given by the first author at the ACEM20/Structures20 Conference, held in Seoul in August 2020. The paper is organized into four sections: the first giving general concepts about wind generation especially offshore, the second and the third considering economic and technical aspects, respectively, of offshore deep-water wind generation, in the fourth, some challenges of floating offshore wind generation are presented and some conclusions are drawn.

Main lactic acid bacteria fermenting “Baechu Kimchi” and” “Dongchim”, which are indigenous fermented food in Korea, were isolated at optimum fermentation period and identified. The three groups of food preservatives-sorbic acid, p-hydroxybutyl benzoate (POBB), p-hydroxypropyl benzoate (POPB), and sorbic acid-POBB were prepared, and the effect of the food preservatives and various salt concentrations on those lactic acid bacteria was examined. The results obatined are as follows; 1. Lactic acid bacteria were isolated from “Baechu Kimchi” and “Dongchimi”and identifed as Leuconostoc mesonteriodse, Lactobacillus plantatum, Lactobacillus brevis, Streptococcus faecalis, and Pedicoccus pentosaceus. 2. Lactic acid bacteria were grown much better at 0.5-2% NaCl level than 0% NaCl level. 3. Among the isolated lactic acid bactera, Lactobacillus plantarum showed the highest acid producibility. The lower the concentration of NaCl, the higher the acid producibility by Leuconostoc mesentroides, and the other bacteria produced a large amount of acid at 0.5-2.5% NaCl level. 4. Both the sorbic acid (0.05-0.1%) and sorbic (0.05%)-POBB (0.004%) groups showed the highest preservatives effect. In contrast, however, POPB (0.01% ) Group showed the lowest effect, and the preservatives effect was enhanced by the addition of NaCl. Lactobacillus plantarum was least affected by all preservatives, whereas Leuconostoc mesentroides was most affected by them.

This study was undertaken to investigate the producibility of processed foods utilizing 6 newly developed non-glutinous rice cultivars. First, cooked rice, cake, cookies, bread, and slender rice cake sticks were prepared with the newly developed cultivars; then their physicochemical and textural properties were evaluated. The rice samples had similar pasting temperatures and peak times, but different viscosities and other pasting properties. The textural analysis results suggested that 'Chucheong' was appropriate for cooked rice due to its low amylose content; hardness, and springiness; 'Ilphumbyeo' for rice cakes due to its high amylose content, moderate cohesiveness and adhesiveness, and low hardness; 'Ilphumbyeo' for cookies due to its high amount of protein, and low cohesiveness and adhesiveness; 'Ilphumbyeo' for bread due to its high amylose content, moderate hardness, and low consistency; and 'Ilphumbyeo' for the slender rice cake sticks due to its low hardness, moderate breakdown, paste viscosity, and setback.

Retroviral vector provide a highly efficient method for gene transfer into eukaryotic cells. This vector system can be divided into two components; the retroviral vector itself and the retroviral packaging cell line. The key improvement in the design of these two components are, focused on two aspects; the reduction of helper virus production and high titer-virus. We used PA317 for retrovirus packaging cell line, for its high producibility of viral titer. To test the ability of the vectors to generate high titer-virus, we have chosen four different retroviral vectors; LN, LNSX, LNCX and LXSN. To test easily the viral titer, we have made recombinant construction with CD4 and CD8, checked their viral titer and stained their surface expression. LXSN which contain SV40 early promoter in front of neo gene showed best results in viral transient transfection assay, dot blot assay and surface expression. In addition, recombinant containing CD8 generally showed much higher viral titration and surface expression than CD4.

Though a micro pump is a crucial element in miniaturized bio-fluidic systems or drug delivery systems, it has some intrinsic disadvantages such as backward flow, pulsation of flow, low repeatability and producibility, and high cost. To overcome these limitation, a PZT disc actuated micro pump including a novel ring-shaped multi-flap check valve is introduced. To enhance the performance of the micro pump, the static behaviour of flap valve module and the micro fluidic behavior of fluids are numerically modelled and analyzed. As results of the numerical analysis, the optimal dimension and configuration of the ring-shaped multi flap valve are $1{\times}0.05$ mm and 2 (inlet side)${\times}1$ (outlet side) type. The obtained maximum flow rates and flow resolution are about 90 ml/min and 30 ${\mu}l$/stroke respectively.

The scale up production test for the hydrothermal synthesis of clay mineral from the anorthite, which is distributed in San Chung-District of Korea and called as the ground rock for halloysite-kaolin, has been investigated by using the gaitator type reactor. The automatic control system has been developed and applied for the more effective producibility and the reduction in the defect of this intermittent batch processing property, and finally for the feasibility of this system in actual use. It was observed that this agitator type reactor can reduce the synthesis reaction tme from 5 days to 3 days, only with the condition of 20rpm. The automatic control system could regulate the vessel temperature and pressure precisely at an optimum condition during the treatment. Therefore, from these test results the application-possibility for this system was found to be feasible in actual use.

A scalar metric for the assessment of hull surface producibility was known to be useful in estimating the complexity of a hull form of ships or large offshore structures by looking at their shape. However, it could not serve as a comprehensive measuring tool due to its lack of important components of the hull form such as longitudinals, stiffeners, and web frames attached to the hull surface. To have a complete metric for cost estimation, these structural members must be included. In this paper, major inner structural members are considered by measuring the complexity of their geometric shape. The final scalar metric thus consists of the classes containing inner members with various curvature magnitudes as well as the classes containing curved plates with single and double curvature distribution. Those two distinct metrics are merged into a complete scalar metric that accounts for the total cost estimation of complex structural bodies.
