Lindera obtusiloba has been widely used as a traditional medicine for the treatment of lots of diseases, including abdominal pain, bruise, and hepatocirrhosis. Here in this study, we elucidated the lifespan-extending effect of methanolic extract of Lindera obtusiloba (MLO) using Caenorhabditis elegans model system. We found that MLO has potent lifespan extension activities under normal culture condition. Then, we determined the protective effects of MLO on the stress conditions such as osmotic, thermal and oxidative stress. To reveal possible mechanism of MLO-mediated lifespan, we further investigated the effect of MLO on the antioxidant enzyme activities and intracellular ROS levels. Our results demonstrated that superoxide dismutase and catalase activities were significantly up-regulated by MLO treatment, resulted in reduced intracellular ROS levels. In this work, we also tested whether MLO-mediated longevity activity was associated with aging-related factors such as food intake and growth. Our data revealed that both of pharyngeal pumping rate and body length were significantly shifted by MLO treatment, indicating these factors were involved in MLO's lifespan-extension effects. Although MLO induces reduction in food intake, the body movement of MLO-fed aged worms was not decreased, compared to untreated control worms, indicating MLO might extend lifespan without affecting healthspan.

급속 혼화공정에서 응집제의 동력학적 수화반응 특성을 고려하여 1초 이내의 순간혼합을 제시하고 있으며, 이러한 이론에 근거하여 설치된 Pump Diffusion Mixer(PDM)의 관내 응집제 확산 분포특성을 조사하였다. D=1,200mm 관경에서 압력수 유량비에 따라 응집제 주입지점으로부터 4.5D되는 지점에서 관 단면의 지점별 제타 전위를 측정하여 평가한 결과, 압력수의 유량비가 2%에서는 분사속도가 낮아 관 단면에 응집제가 골고루 분사되지 못하는 것으로 조사되었다. 그러나 압력수 유량비가 4% 이상이 되면 비교적 균등하게 혼합되며, 8%에서는 관 단면 전체에 균등하게 확산 분포되는 것으로 나타났다.

The operation condition of recently designed pistons for high power and high speed diesel engine become more severe due to the increment of combustion pressure and temperature. So, in order to overcome high temperature, the application of the mono-metal cast aluminum alloy piston featuring an enclosed cast-in open cooling gallery has increased. In this research, it is developed a PCJ (piston cooling jet) rig tester, described the test procedure and validated the performance of sample piston cooling gallery design. Then the test rig will be used for developing the design technology of piston cooling gallery. The test rig is composed with oil reservoir and pumping system, oil jet system, piston fixing and moving system, collecting oil measuring system, and data measuring and recording system. It will be measured collecting efficiencies under conditions of a few piston positions, oil jet pressures and oil viscosities for a piston cooling gallery. Furthermore, the PCJ rig tester will be used for the optimum design of the oil cooling gallery which being applied to increase the cooling efficiency of pistons in diesel engines satisfying the EURO V emission regulation and the more.

석탄 화력발전소에서 발생되는 바닥재와 준설토를 이용하여 인공경량골재를 제조하였다. 소성 옹도별, 골재 조 성별, 그리고 석회석($CaCO_3$)을 코팅 양별 비교를 통하여 골재 표면에 형성된 융제량의 변화, 비중, 흡수율, 절단면 관찰 등의 골재 물성 비교가 수행되었다. 결론적으로 골재 무게비 $CaCO_3$ 10%를 골재 표면에 코팅하여 표면개질을 암으로써 골재 내부의 거대 기공의 형성을 억제시켜 비중을 조절할 수 있었으며, 표면 융제를 대폭 감소시켜 골재간 융착 현상을 방지할수 있으며, 흡수율 또한 효과적으로 감소시켜 경량골재를 포함한 경량콘크리트 타설시 펌핑 문제를 향상시킬 수 있을 것으로 판단되었다.

Chemical analysis, measurement of pumping rates of 60 production wells and depth to water tables of 57 monitoring wells were carried to protect depletion of water resources and deterioration of water quality for the commercial portable ground-water. Borehole depth of production well averages 149m(31 boreholes), casing depth is 28m(29 boreholes), production rate is 70 $m^3$/day and depth to water table of monitoring well is 23.26m, respectively. The geology of 60 wells can be divided into Daebo granite(20), Okchun metarmorphic complex(18), Precambrian granitic gneiss(15), Bulguksa granite(4), Cheju volcanics(2), Cretaceous sedimentary rock(1). Average electrical conductivity and pH are 152$\mu$S/cm, and 7.35, respectively. The contents of major cation and anion predominantly $Ca^{2+}$>N $a^{+}$>M $g^{2+}$> $K^{+}$ and HC $O_{3}$$^{－}$ >S $O_{4}$$^{2-}$>Cl￣>F￣. Water type is predominantly $Ca^{2+}$-HC $O_{3}$$^{－}$(81.7%). It's possible that water chemistry of some wells were affected not only by the geology of boreholes penetrated but by inflows of surface water or shallow ground-water. Therefore, it is strongly necessary to steadily monitor the water quality and hydrogeologic conditins of production wells.ells.ls.ells.

Water hammer pumps can effectively use the water hammer phenomenon for water pumping. They are capable of providing an effective fluid transport method in regions without a well-developed social infrastructure. The results of experiments examining the effect of the geometric form of water hammer pumps by considering their major dimensions have been reported. However, these conventional studies have not fully evaluated pump performance in terms of pump head and flow rate, common measures of pump performance. The authors have focused on the effects on the pump performance of various geometric form factors in water hammer pumps. The previous study examined how the hydrodynamic characteristics was affected by the inner diameter ratio of the drive and lift pipes and the angle of the drive pipe, basic form factors of water hammer pumps. The previous papers also showed that the behavior of water hammer pump operation could be divided into four characteristic phases. The behavior of temporal changes in valve chamber and air chamber pressures according to the air volume in the air chamber located downstream of the lift valve was also clarified in connection with changes in water hammer pump performance. In addition, the effects on water hammer pump performance of the length of the spring attached to the drain valve and the drain pipe angle, form factors around the drain valve, were examined experimentally. This study focuses on the form of the lift valve, a major component of water hammer pumps, and examines the effects of the size of the lift valve opening area on water hammer pump performance. It also clarifies the behavior of flow in the valve chamber during water hammer pump operation.

Blind hydraulic backfilling is a commonly used technique for subsidence control of the strata over unapproachable waterlogged underground excavations. In this investigation model studies on all the three variants of this technique, namely, hydro-pneumatic or air-assisted gravity backfilling, pumped-slurry backfilling and simple gravity backfilling, have been carried out in fully transparent models of the underground excavations. On examination of the filling process, it was revealed that in all the three cases, the basic process of filling occurs by sand transport along one or more meandering channels. The relative influence of sand, water and air flow rates on the area of filling from a single inlet point and the hydraulic pressure loss per unit length were studied in details. In hydro-pneumatic backfilling process, the air bubbles while moving upward through the meandering channels provide an additional buoyant force over and above the available hydraulic head. In this way the area of filling from a single borehole may be quite large even at small flow rates of water. During actual field implementation the injected air, if not released completely from the rise side holes, may cause troubles by way of creating potholes on the surface. The pumped-slurry technique has shown its capability of filling a relatively larger area at faster rate, especially when high-volume, low-pressure method was selected. But simple gravity filling was also found to be equally effective method as slurry pumping, especially when flow rates were high. In the second and third method discussed above, examination of variations of injection pressure was also done and its relation with physical phenomenon was also attempted. Some empirical relationships were also developed using multivariate regression with a view to help the practicing engineers.

역삼투 해수 담수화 공법의 주요 단점으로 여겨지고 있는 에너지 소비량을 줄이기 위한 방편으로 해안선을 통하여 바다로 유출되는 담수 지하수를 활용하여 낮은 염도의 원수를 확보하는 방안을 제시하였다. 저 염도 지하 염수는 담수화 비용 뿐 아니라 표류 해수 취수의 알려진 단점을 극복하는 데도 유리하다. 지하 염수의 염도는 해안선을 통하여 바다로 유출되는 담수 지하수량의 영향을 크게 받는다. 본 연구에서는 담수화 시설에 필요한 수량을 최저 염도로 충족시킬 수 있는 지하 염수 관정의 위치 및 양수량 분포를 산정할 수 있는 최적 전산설계모델을 개발하였다. 해안 지역에서 지하 염수를 개발하면 대수층으로 해수가 추가 침투하여 다른 사용자의 지하수 관정을 오염시킬 수 있다. 본 모델은 지하 염수 관정의 최적 설계 시에 기존 지하수 관정을 해수 침투로부터 보호할 수 있도록 구성되었다.
