Uranium silicide는 우수한 조사안정성을 가지는 유망한 연구로용 저농축 분산형 핵연료 소재이나 상대적으로 낮은 uranium 함량으로 인해 고출력에 필요한 8~9g-U/㎤ 정도의 uranium 충진 밀도를 얻기 위해서는 Al기지내에 uranium silicide 핵연료 입자의 부피분율을 높여주는 것이 필요하다 핵연료 입자의 부피분율을 높이기 위하여는 핵연료봉의 Al 기지내에 핵연료 입자가 균일하게 분포되어야 한다. 균질한 핵연료 심재를 제조하기 위해서는 핵연료 입자와 알루미늄과의 균일한 혼합이 중요하며 이러한 혼합체내의 분말에 대한 균질도를 정확히 평가하는 방법의 개발이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 혼합분말의 충진시 겉보기 밀도 측정을 통한 조성의 표준편차를 구하는 방법과 X-ray image 분석법을 새로운 균질도 평가방법으로 제시하였다. 구형의 U$_3$Si분말과 Al분말의 혼합시 drum 회전법의 경우에는 밀도차에 의한 segregation이 발생되고 있으나, Spex mill 혼합법의 경우에는 균질도가 향상되었다. 45-150$\mu\textrm{m}$의 분말크기 분포를 갖는 구형 U$_3$Si의 경우가 작은 입자들이 큰 입자들 사이를 효과적으로 채울 수 있기 때문으로 균일한 분포를 갖는 것으로 생각되며, 밀도차가 큰 U$_3$Si의 경우는 밀도차가 작은 구형 Cu-Sn 혼합체에 비해 균질도가 저하됨을 확인하였다. 겉보기 밀도 측정에 의한 균질도 측정평가와 X-ray image 분석법과의 관계에서는 같은 경향성을 찾을 수 있었다.

Comparison of maps and QTLs between populations may provide us with a better understanding of molecular maps and the inheritance of traits. We developed and used two reciprocal $BC_1F_1$ populations, IP/DS//IP and IP/DS//DS, for QTL analysis. DS (Dasanbyeo) is a Korean tongil-type cultivar (derived from an indica x japonica cross and similar to indica in its genetic make-up) and IP (Ilpumbyeo) is a Korean japonica cultivar. We constructed two molecular linkage maps corresponding to each backcross population using 196 markers for each map. The length of each chromosome was longer in the IP/DS//IP population than in the IP/DS//DS population, indicating that more recombinants were produced in the IP/DS//IP population. Distorted segregation was observed for 44 and 19 marker loci for the IP/DS//IP and IP/DS//DS populations, respectively; these were mostly skewed in favor of the indica alleles. A total of 36 main effect QTLs (M-QTLs) and 15 digenic epistatic interactions (E-QTLs) were detected for the seven traits investigated. The phenotypic variation explained (PVE) by M-QTLs ranged from 3.4% to 88.2%. Total PVE of the M-QTLs for each trait was significantly higher than that of the E-QTLs. The total number of M-QTLs identified in the IP/DS//IP population was higher than in the IP/DS//DS population. However, the total PVE by the M-QTLs and E-QTLs together for each trait was similar in the two populations, suggesting that the two $BC_1F_1$ populations are equally useful for QTL analysis. Maps and QTLs in the two populations were compared. Eleven new QTLs were identified for SN, SF, GL, and GW in this study, and they will be valuable in marker-assisted selection, particularly for improving grain traits in tongil-type varieties.

The structural steels of power plant show the decrease of mechanical properties due to degradation such as temper embrittlement, creep damage and softening during long-term operation at high temper ature. The typical causes of material degradation damage are the creation and coarsening of carbides(M23C6, M6C) and the segregation of impurities(P, Sb and Sn) to grain boundary. It is also well known that material degradation induces the cleavage fracture and increases the ductile-brittle transition temperature of steels. So, it is very important to evaluate degradation damage to secure the reliable and efficient service condition and to prevent brittle failure in service. However, it would not be appropriate to sample a large test piece from in-service components. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a couple of new approaches to the non-destructive estimation technique which may be applicable to assessing the material degradation of the components with not to influence their essential strength. The purpose of this study is to propose and establish a new electrochemical technique for non-destructive evaluation of material degradation damage for Cr-Mo steels which is widely used in the high temperature structural components. And the electrochemical anodic polarization test results are compared with those of semi-nondestructive SP test.

This study was conducted to obtain a growth correlation of basal information from the development of disease resistant Flammulina velutipes cultivars through back-crossing between the strains of wild-type brown monokaryon 4019-20 and the derivative of commercial quality white monokaryons 3. The two strains were selected to back-cross for further enhancing their latent attributes and growth characteristics. The parents of 4019-$20{\times}M3$ back-crossed to reproduce $F_1$, M3-Sn. Using $F_1$, M3-Sn procured and isolated into 94 monokaryon strains. Further examination of growth characteristics carried out by back-crossing between M3 and $BC_1F_1$ from M3-n dikaryon. Monokaryon exhibited an irregular growth pattern and demonstrated to be sluggish development in the sawdust medium. However $BC_1F_1$(M3-n) dikaryon strains confirmed mostly regular growth pattern and demonstrated ordinary growth in the sawdust medium. The fruitbody of $BC_1F_1$ confirmed as light-brown colour to be the dominant gene. The colour distributions of fruitbody, $BC_1F_1$, resulted as follows; 7% of dark brown, 25% of brown, 27% of light brown, 16% of ivory and 25% of white. The ratio of the other color to white showed 3 to 1 which suggested two major genes were related to fruitbody color.
