We have performed dispersion polymerization of acrylamide in tert-butyl alcohol/water mixture-using hydroxypropyl cellulose and ammonium persulfate as the stabilizer and the initiator, respectively - to study the effects that the concentration of monomer, initiator, and stabilizer, the tert-butyl alcohol/water ratios as polymerization media, and the reaction temperature have on, among other things, the polymerization kinetics, particle sizes, and molecular weights. The polymerization rate increased upon increasing the concentration of the monomer, initiator, and stabilizer, the water content in the tert-butyl alcohol/water media, and the polymerization temperature. The average particle size of the lattices increased upon increasing the concentration of initiator, the polymerization temperature, and the water content in the tert-butyl alcohol/water media, but it decreased upon increasing the concentration of monomer and stabilizer. The viscosity-average molecular weight increased upon increasing the concentration of monomer and stabilizer and the water content in the tert-butyl alcohol/water media, but it decreased upon increasing both the concentration of initiator and the polymerization temperature.

This study investigates the seismic responses of two structures connected by a sky-bridge equipped with viscoelastic dampers (VED) at the bridge-building connections. The applicability of the method is verified first by observing RMS (root-mean-squared) responses of two-degrees-of-freedom systems subjected to white noise ground excitation. Then model structures with various number of stories are analyzed using earthquake ground motions to observe the effect of the varying size of VED on the reduction of dynamic responses. According to the analysis results, there exists a proper size of VED which minimizes the structural responses. It is also observed that the effectiveness of VED increases as the difference of natural frequencies between the two connected structures increases.

Spray characteristics of a twin-hole air shrouded nonle designed for gasoline injectors was investigated by using laser diffraction particle analyzer (LDPA) and tomography reconstruction- A confined spray chamber which is optically accessible through a pair of glass windows was made to simulate the fuel injection condition in intake manifold of gasoline engine. The measurement was applied to the twin hole injector with and without an air shroud. It demonstrates that for the case with an air shroud, fine atomization is achieved and there exists a large number of fine droplets between the region of the main spray streams, which conforms with the spray visualization. The drop size distribution was investigated as a function of elapse time after fuel injection. The distribution was greatly affected by the measurement position from the injector exit. Also, the spatially resolved spray volume fraction and Sauter Mean Diameter (SMD) from line-of-sight data of the LDPA are tomographically reconstructed by Convolution Fourier transformation under the steady injection condition.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between petrographical and engineering properties of granitic rocks, widely used as building and ornamental stones in Korea, at the Namwon are a. This area is one of the most famous area as a domestic dimension stone production. The granitic rocks were examined for grain sizes, modal compositions and then same samples were tested to determine specific gravity, water absorption, porosity, uniaxial compressive strength, tensile strength, abrasive hardness, P-wave velocity, modulus of elasticity and Poisson's ratio. It is suggested that the influence of the grain size on the engineering properties is more important than that of the mode of mineralogical compositions. And quartz contents also significantly influence the engineering properties of granitic rocks.

The purpose of this study is to develop the jellyfish separator system(JSS) for reducing fishery damage by the increase of jellyfish in the sea area of Korea in summer. First of all, to find the optimum structure of a JSS, six types of JSS in trawl fishery were designed and manufactured, the underwater shape of JSS and the separating process by JSS were observed in the circulating water channel(CWC). And the field experiments were carried out in July and September 2004 in the southern sea of Korea. For the moving path of the jellyfish model in the CWC, in case that the model was larger than the mesh size of the separator net, it was guided toward the lower part of the separator net by the guiding net and discharged through the outlet. In case that the model was smaller than the mesh size of the separator net, some models which passed through the upper part of the guiding net were smaller than the mesh size of the guiding net and discharged through the outlet and most of the model which passed through the lower part of the guiding net moved to the codend passing through the separator net. According to the field experiment result, the optimum tilt angle of separator net was inferred $20^{\circ}$ that the discharge rate of jellyfish was higher than the other tilt angle of separator net and the optimum structure of JSS was inferred GS type(consists of guiding net and separator net) that the discharge rate of jellyfish was higher than S type(consists of separator net). It was demamded to carry out more study for the countermeasure to reduce loss of fish.

The purpose of this study is to provide basic data on the propriety of the ready-to-made garment sizes of the boys aged between 10 and 11. The data were collected from 315 boys in the capital area. They were surveyed during the period of April, 2004. Data analysis has been performed through descriptive statistics, $x^2$-test, t-test, ANOVA and Duncan test using SPSS ver.10. The results of the analysis are as follows. According to the result of investigating the favorite fashion style of boys, most boys aged between 10 and 11 preferred casual style(jean pants & T-shirts). Boys of age 10 preferred formal style and 11-year-old boys tend to prefer hip-hop style. When boys buy garments, boys aged between 10 and 11 were influenced by their mother or family. The store in which 10-year-old boys purchased their garments was either a children's or a sports wear store, and boys of 11 age prefer young casual wear store. The highest factors of dissatisfaction on buying garments were price and size. According to the result of evaluating fitting problems, the highest degree of dissatisfaction upon proper fitness upper-arm circumference, waist circumference and pants length.

Paclitaxel is an effective antineoplastic drug for various cancers especially ovarian and breast cancer. This study is to find the optimum condition for the preparation of nanoemulsions and to improve the stability and loading amount of paclitaxel in nanoemulsions. Nanoemulsions were prepared by modified spontaneous emulsification solvent diffusion method. It was composed of phosphatidylcholine:cholesterol:1,2-Distearoyl-sn-Glycero-3-Phosphoethanolamine-N-[Metoxy (Polyethylene glycol)-2000]:paclitaxel at a weight ratio of 5:3:1:1 and the Tween 80 as a surfactant. The particle size and the shape of nanoemulsions were measured by particle analyzer and SEM, respectively. The loading amount of paclitaxel in nanoemulsion was measured by UV-visible spectroscopy at 227 nm. The particle sizes were $80{\sim}120\;nm$ and the loading efficiency of paclitaxel was $8{\sim}39%$. The optimum conditions for the preparation of nanoemulsions were 8% w/w phospholipid, 16% w/v Tween 80 and 2% w/w paclitaxel, respectively.
