In this paper, a modelling technique for simulating self-propelled ships in waves is presented. The flow is modelled using a RANS solver coupled with an actuator disk model for the propeller. The motion of the ship is taken into consideration in the definition of the actuator disk region as well as the advance ratio of the propeller. The RPM of the propeller is controlled using a PID-controller with constraints added on the maximum permissible RPM increase rate. Results are presented for a freely surging model in regular waves with different constraints put on the PID-controller. The described method shows promising results and allows for the studying of several factors relating to self-propulsion. However, more validation data is needed to judge the accuracy of the model.

Capsaicin synthesis by suspension cultured cells of Jalapeno pepper (Capcicum annuum L.) was assessed in vitro under various conditions including temperature (23 and $30^{\circ}C$), light intensity (with light and without light), and shaking speed (110 and 200 rpm). Capsaicin production increased, while the cell biomass growth decreased possibly due to the production of a secondary metabolite. Capsaicin synthesis was primarily affected by light condition. Cells cultivated at 110 rpm and $23^{\circ}C$ under light condition yielded the highest fresh weight, while those cultivated under the same condition, but without light resulted in the lowest cell mass. Capsaicin content in cells of 18-day-old pepper grown at 110 rpm and $23^{\circ}C$ under light was 0.125% of the cell mass. However, without light treatment, the capsaicin content in cells at the same shaking speed and temperature increased up to 169%, indicating no light is favored in the capsaicin synthesis by Jalapeno pepper. Increasing the shaking speed from 110 to 200 rpm without light enhanced the capsaicin synthesis. Results of this study demonstrate that light condition is the limiting factor in the synthesis of capsaicin in tissue-cultured Jalapeno pepper cells.

The timing of poly(3-Hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) biosynthesis was controlled by varying the agitation speed of a stirred tank fermentor during the pH-stat fed-batch culture of recombinant Escherichia coli strain GCSC 6576 harboring pSYL107. Using a concentrated whey solution containing ca. 200 g/l lactose as the nutrient feed, the PHB content was only 57% after 35h due to volumetric limitation of the fermentor. However, by limiting the oxygen by maintaining the agitation speed at 300 rpm, the final PHB content increased to 70% after 70h with a cell concentration of 15 g/l. When the agitation speed was increased up to 500 rpm, a cell concentration of 31 g/l with 80% PHB was obtained after 52h. A further increase in the maximum agitation speed increased the cell concentration, PHB concentration, and PHB productivity, however, the PHB content decreased to 56-58%.

Radiation Portal Monitors (RPMs) are our primary border defense against nuclear smuggling, but are they still the best way to spend limited funds? The purpose of this research is to strategically compare RPM defense at the border with state-side mobile detectors. Limiting the problem to a comparison of two technologies, a decision-maker can prioritize how to best allocate resources, by reinforcing the border with stationary overt RPMs, or by investing in Mobile Radiation Detection Systems (MRDs) which are harder for an adversary to detect but may have other weaknesses. An abstract, symmetric network was studied to understand the impact of initial conditions on a network. An asymmetric network, loosely modeled on a state transportation system, is then examined for the technology that will maximally suppress the adversary's success rate. We conclude that MRDs, which have the advantage of discrete operation, outperform RPMs deployed to a border. We also conclude that MRDs maintain this strategic advantage if they operate with one-tenth the relative efficiency of their stationary counter-parts or better.

Flow-Accelerated Corrosion behavior concerning both activation and mass transfer process of SA106 Gr.C steel was studied using rotating cylinder electrode in room temperature alkaline solution by DC and AC electrochemical techniques. Passive film was tanned from pH 9.8 by step oxidation of ferrous product into hydroxyl compound. Corrosion potential shifted slightly upward with rotating velocity through the diffusion of cathodic species. Corrosion current density increased with rotating velocity in pH 6.98, while it soon saturated from 1000 rpm at above pH 9.8. On the other hand the limiting current increased with rotating speed regardless of pH values. It seems that activation process, which represents formation of passive film on the bare metal surface, controls the entire corrosion kinetics

The electroreduction of dioxygen at glassy carbon electrodes with irreversible self-assembly of N-hexadecyl-N'-methyl viologen $(C_{16}VC_1)$ proceeds at potentials more positive than those where the reduction occurs at bare electrodes. The electrocatalyzed reduction takes place at potentials well ahead of those where the catalyst is reduced in the absence of dioxygen and the limiting currents observed at rotating disk electrodes did not deviate from the thoretical Levich line up to 6400 rpm, indicating that the electrocatalysis is extremely rapid. The rate constant for the heterogeneous reaction between $C_{16}V^+C_1$ immobilized on the electrode surface and $O_2$ in solution was estimated to be ca. $10^8\;M^{-1}s^{-1}$. The half-wave potential of dioxygen reduction was independent of solution pH.

The major limiting factor on the determination of combine capacity is the frequent occurence of clogging over the some parts of machine when the crop is wet in the case of Japanese self-feeding type combine. And in the case of American conventional combine having big separating parts, the great grain loss and damage occur when the machine is used for rice harvesting. This experiment was carried out to develop the new type threshing and separating equipment. Proto-type thresher which consist of a conical threshing drum and a conical separating sieve rotating around the threshing cone was constructed and tested. In the case of 800 rpm of threshing cone speed, average threshing loss was below 1 percent, separating loss was about 1 percent, grain damage was about 0.4 percent, and average total power required was about 2.6 PS. This design has some problems such as higher power required or wrapping problems under the conditions of feeding long damp straw. But, compared with the conventional combine or thresher, this machine certainly has some potentials for this approach to combine development. The crop feed rate must be increased through improvement of the feeding portion of the threshing cone. And it is required to investigate further about some parameters causing wrapping phenomena.

균사형성 미생물에 의한 항생물질의 대량생산은 적절한 산소공급이 요구되며, 산소전달속도는 생산성에 영향을 미치는 속도제한단계이다. 그러므로 발효에 이용하기 위해 Streptomyces avermitilis 와 같은 균사형성 미생물 배양액에서의 산소전달계수를 측정하였다. 그러나 회분식 배양에서 (K$_{L}$A) 측정을 위한 적절한 용존산소 유지가 어려웠으며, 이를 극복하기 위해서 유가식 배양을 도입하였다. 배지의 단계적 공급으로 미생물 성장속도를 조절할 수 있었고, 낮은 교반속도에서도 적정용존산소의 유지가 가능하였으며, 결과적으로 (K$_{L}$A) 측정도 용이하였다. 7 g/L 이하의 낮은 균체량에서 350 rpm의 교반속도가 교반효율과 전단응력을 고려했을 때 가장 적절한 조건임을 알수 있었다. 그러나 균체가 증가할수록 배양액 점도가 증가하여 혼합이 효과적이지 못한 이유로 더 높은 교반속도가 필요하였다. 통기량의 증가에 의한 (K$_{L}$A) 증가율은 건조균제질량이 고 농도 일수록 미미하였다. 그러므로 높은 균체농도에서는 이차대사산물에 영향을 주지 않은 범위에서 교반속도를 증가하여 용존산소 농도를 조절하는 것이 통기속도의 조절보다 더 효율적 일 것으로 판단되었다.판단되었다.

Al 6061-T6를 사용하여 마찰교반 용접 시 회전 툴 숄더의 너비부의 넓이와 회전 속도, 이동속도의 변화에 따른 물성의 변화에 대하여 평가되었다. FSW 공정의 접합 변수에 따라 인장시험을 수행하기 위하여 KS B 0801 5호에 따라 시험편을 제작하여 마찰교반 용접을 시행하였다. 마찰교반 용접이 된 시험편의 기계적 특성을 평가하기 위해 Instron 인장시험기를 사용하여 1mm/min의 시험 속도로 인장시험을 시행했다. 평가결과, 인장강도는 회전 속도가 증가함에 증가 하였다. 툴 숄더의 이동 속도가 빠를수록 툴 유형에 관계없이 인장강도는 감소하였다. 툴 숄더 직경 12 mm (TSD12) 의 인장 강도 값은 일반적으로 8mm 보다 높게 나타났다. 이동 속도와 회전하는 속도가 한계 값을 초과하면 재료의 특성에 영향을 주지 않고 안정화 단계에 도달한다. 툴 숄더 직경 8mm (TSD8) 는 TSD12 유형의 공구와 비교하여 재료 특성이 감소하고 용접 영역에서 재료가 완전히 혼합되지 않는다. 인장 강도 값은 모든 회전 속도 1500 rpm에서 상대적으로 감소한다. 이동 속도가 낮을수록 같은 회전수에서 재료의 혼합될 수 있는 양이 많으므로 인장강도값이 높게 나타난다. 결과적으로 용접 영역에서 재료를 완전히 혼합하고 전이 온도에 도달하기 위해서는 임계값을 초과하는 회전 속도가 필요하다.
