Hem quality can be determined mainly by turn-down and roll-in. Turn-down, that is created by the elastic recovery, can't be easily detected and measured since it is usually as small as 0.03 m. This study is focused on the precise evaluation of the hemming defects through analytical and experimetal approaches, and on the investigation of the influence of process parameters on the final hem quality. Implicit finite element analysis of plane-strain hemming process is performed by using a commercial code ABAQUS/Standard. Experiment and measurement is also carried out for steel and aluminium sheet metals, and the results are compared with those of analysis.

In the prior work,$\^$l)/ we introduced several chemical cross-linking agents in order to improve elastic recovery of copolyetheresters, but we are confronted by two difficulties. The first is that cross-linking agents interfere with crystal growth which acts as a physical interlocking. The second is that strain at breaking decreases with the amount of cross-linking agent. It is considered that the chemical interlocking parts couldn't be deformed like crystalline phase. (omitted)

Human leptin is identified as a 16kDa (146 amino acids) protein secreted from adipocytes which influences body weight homeostasis. In order to produce active leptin, the human obese gene coding for leptin was expressed in Bacillus subtilis WB600 strain which is deficient in six extracellular proteases. The recombinant leptin was produced in a culture supernatant, and in a culture supernatant, it was contained as high as 48% for total proteins. After simple purification steps, which consisted of ammonium sulfate precipitation and anion-exchange column chromatography, 2.3 mg of leptin with a purity greater than 95% was obtained from the 0.51 culture with the recovery yield of 38.3%. The purified leptin showed the correct folding structure with one disulfied bond.

A simple cold pressing procedure which allows shear deformations on sheet metals is proposed by designing dies with grooves and applied to aluminum 3003 sheets. shear deformation led to the formation of preferred orientation along <100>//RD, and the effect of initial tortures on the formation of shear textures was also studied Rectangular shaped dislocation cells formed in the deformed microstructure and boundaries of dislocation cells gradually rounded with the increased plastic strain. Upon subsequent annealing textures inherited deformation textures. Recrystallized grains consisted of a large number of fully recovered subgrains with well defined boundaries which persisted even after annealing at a higher temperature.

Although many scientists have used pectin, its feasibility in terms of tablet manufacturability with a high speed machine has never been evaluated. Therefore, compactibility of different pectin types for large scale tableting operation has been evaluated. The compactibility behavior of powder pectins was studied by a compaction simulator. It was found that pectin on its own does not produce tablets of acceptable quality even at a punch velocity as low as 20 rpm (e.g. low tensile strengths, capping and lamination irrespective of applied compression force). Thus, dwell time was introduced and more hard compact was produced as relaxation time in die increases. It was concluded that frequent structural failure observed in both pectin types was due to lack of plastic deformation, poor compactibility and high elastic recovery.

Glycopeptide antibiotics, teicoplanin was purified from a mutant strain of Actinoplanes teichomyceticus ATCC31121, A. teichomyceticus MSL2211. We developed a simple procedure to separate and purify the teicoplanin from the fermentation broth. Teicoplanin was purified by two-step purification system, hydrophobic adsorption and sugar affinity chromatography in combination with HPLC analysis based on the properties of hydrophobic acyl chain and sugar moiety in teicoplanin. Teicoplanin was separated from the culture broth by Diaion HP-20 and further purified by concanavalin A affinity column chromatography. As an adsorbent resin, Diaion HP-20 in broth eliminated toxic effects on growth, reduced feedback repression of teicoplanin production, and assisted In rapid recovery of teicoplanin. The teicoplanin displayed the final yield of 80% and 95% of purity.

Streptococcus suis causes meningitis and sepsis in pigs, but human infection has increased over the past few years in those who are exposed to pigs or raw pork. Most cases have occurred in Southeast Asia, but only two cases have been reported in South Korea, presenting with arthritis and meningitis. Here, we report a rare case of S. suis infection, a 60-year-old sailor, who visited the emergency room presenting septicemia, pneumonia with empyema and meningitis, showed full recovery; however, neurologic sequale of severe cognitive dysfunction was present after the usage of antibiotics and percutaneous drainage. S. suis was isolated from blood and pleural fluid and the strain was susceptible to penicillin and vancomycin. Increased awareness of S. suis infection and prevention are warranted.

Among various methods to acquire high strength in plain carbon steel, the mettled of grain refinement by controlling thermo-mechanical processing parameters has gained a great attention if steel rolling industries. In the present study, three different rolling pass schedules are proposed to obtain fine grains which are based on combined results of recrystallization modelling, finite element analysis and experiment. Since meta-dynamic or dynamic recrystallization has been found to be very effective in producing fine grains, reduction ratio and interpass time in the proposed rolling pass schedules were determined in order to invoke such recrystallization as often as possible.

A study has been made to investigate how the fomability of Ti-10V-2Fe-3Al alloy is related to the initial microstructure and process variables such as temperature and strain rate. It has been found that the deformation resistance at high temperature is increased with the increase in the thickness of grain boundary a (GB)a and/or acicular a phase and however the effect of a morphology on the hot formability is considered insignificant due to the breakage of GB a and/or acicular a into several equiaxed a particles
