The effect of equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) on the pitting corrosion resistance of hard anodized Al5052 alloy was investigated. The degree of internal stress generated in anodic oxide films during hard anodization was also evaluated with a strain gauge method. The pitting corrosion resistance of hard anodized Al5052 alloy was greatly decreased by ECAP. Cracks occurred in the anodic oxide film during hard anodization and these cracks were larger and deeper in the alloy with ECAP than without. The pitting corrosion was accelerated by cracks. The internal stress present in the anodic oxide films was compressive and the stress was higher in the alloys with ECAP than without, resulting in an increased likelihood of cracks. The pitting corrosion resistance of hard anodized Al5052 alloy was improved by annealing at the range of 473-573K after ECAP processed at room temperature for four passes. The compressive internal stress gradually decreased with increasing annealing temperature. It is assumed that the improvement in the pitting corrosion resistance of hard anodized Al5052 alloy by annealing may be attributed to a decrease in the likelihood of cracks due to the decreased internal stresses in anodic oxide films.

Since 1992, the Rural Development Administration (RDA), Republic of Korea in collaboration with International Rice Research Institute (IRRI) has developed 6 japonica rice varieties(MS11, Japonica 1, 2, 6, 7 and Cordillera 4) that are adaptable to tropical regions. However, these varieties show moderate resistance or susceptibility to certain biotic and abiotic stress. The development of varieties with more stable forms of resistance is highly desirable, and this could be possibly achieved through rapid introgression of known biotic and abiotic resistant genes. In this study, we analyzed the allele types of major biotic stress resistant genes including Xa5, Xa13, Xa21 and Xa25 for bacterial leaf blight, Pi5, Pi40, Pish and Pita2 for blast, tsv1 for rice tungro spherical virus, and Bph6, Bph9, Bph17, Bph18 and Bph32 for brown planthopper by using gene-specific molecular markers. In addition, seed quality related genes Sdr4 for preharvest sprouting and qLG-9 for seed longevity were also analyzed. The results revealed that2h5 and Xa25 resistance alleles showed in all varieties while Pi5 resistance allele showed only in MS11. The Pish resistance allele were present in five varieties except for Japonica 1. Meanwhile, for the rest of the genes, no presence of resistance alleles found in six varieties. In conclusions, most of tropical japonica varieties are lack of the major biotic stress resistant genes and seed quality genes (Sdr4 and qLG-9). Moreover, the results indicated that rapid deployment of a few major genes in the current tropical japonica rice varieties is urgent to increase durability and spectrum of biotic stress resistance and also seed dormancy/longevity which are essential traits for tropical environments.

Fracture resistance (J-R) curves, which are used for elastic-plastic fracture mechanics analyses, decreased under tension-compression loading condition. This phenomenon was proved by several former researches, but the causes have not been clear yet. The objective of this paper is to investigate the cause of this phenomenon. On the basis of fracture resistance curve test results, strain hardening hypothesis, stress redistribution hypothesis and crack opening hypothesis were built. In this study, hardness tests, Automated Ball Indentation(ABI) tests, theoretical stress field analyses, and crack opening analyses were performed to prove the hypotheses. From this study, strain-hardening of material, generation of tensile residual stress at crack tip, and crack opening effects are proved as the causes of the decrease hypothesis.

The concentration of polyamine and the relationship between the concentration of PA and cold resistance were analysed during the cold stress in the cotyledons and hypocotyls of young spring radishes. The concentration of PUT was increased during the cold stress in the cotyledons and the concentration of PUT and SPD was changed significantly all the stress time. From the results, we suggested that PUT and SPD were synthesized against cold stress or separated from the bound PA during the cold stress. But, the concentration of SPM was not significantly changed during the cold stress. Only SPD existed in the control hypocotyls. The concentration of SPD was increased during the cold stress, but was decreased dramatically during continusly cold stress. The reactivity against stress of hypocotyls was generally more sensitive during the cold treatment than that of the cotyledons because of the lower concentration of PA in the hypocotyls. PUT and SPD were responsible for the resistance of cold stress in the cotyledons and PA did not play an important role on the resistance of cold stress in the hypocotyls. In this study we suggest that PUT and SPD were responsible for the increase of the resistance against the cold stress.

In the past, prism patterns have been linear triangular shapeswith a $90^{\circ}$ angle; however, new micro prism patterns having acute angles or obtuse angles have recently been the subject of demandin the display, lighting and photovoltaic industries. Micro-cutting experiments for micro-prism patterns having $60^{\circ}$, $90^{\circ}$, and $120^{\circ}$ angles on an electroplated Ni mold were performed and it was found in this study that the specific cutting resistance increased with a decrease in the tool angles (prism pattern angles). The cause of this variation had been thought to be the increase of the ploughing force due to tip rounding and the friction force due to the edge effect. However, the depth of the cut was large enough that it was possible to neglect these effects. Therefore, this study introduced the concept of representative stress of indentation. The measured stress was varied according to the indentation depth eventhoughthetestedspecimenswereidentical ; the varied stress was termed the representative stress. According to indentation theory, the strain that the Ni mold experienced increased with a decrease in the tool angle. Based on the stress-strain relationship, higher strain means higher stress and higher specific cutting resistance. Therefore, the specific cutting resistance was higher at smaller tool angles that had higher strain and stress.

When the vehicle travels in an actual road, resistance spot weldments of the vehicle structure are exposed to complex loading state. Since the fatigue strength in resistance spot weldment of vehicle body can be determined by effect of residual stresses and loading state of driving, estimating actual loading state and considering residual stress effect are needed. In this study, Fatigue stress-fatigue life relation concerned residual stress effect was obtained by thermo elastic plastic finite element analysis. And applied loading in resistance spot weldments of vehicle body was calculated by dynamic analysis. Presumption of fatigue life was performed using proposed method

The characteristics of low temperature impact toughness and stress corrosion resistance at boiling MgCl$_2$ solution of GTA and SMA weld of duplex stainless steels have been investigated. The impact toughness was highest at the GTAW weld metal and lowest at the SMAW weld, which was almost the same as that of the SMAW heat-affected zone. This was attributable to influence of austenite-ferrite phase balance, and the degree and nature of precipitation that occurred during welding. The SCC resistance of the weldments was slightly higher than that of the base metal, whereas no difference in the SCC resistance was found between two different weldments.

Background: Obesity is a risk factor for aging and many diseases, and the disorder of lipid metabolism makes it prominent. This study aims to investigate the effect of ginsenoside Rg1 on aging, lipid metabolism and stress resistance Methods: Rg1 was administered to Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) cultured in NGM or GNGM. The lifespan, locomotory activity, lipid accumulation, cold and heat stress resistance and related mRNA expression of the worms were examined. Gene knockout mutants were used to clarify the effect on lipid metabolism of Rg1. GFP-binding mutants were used to observe the changes in protein expression Results: We reported that Rg1 reduced lipid accumulation and improved stress resistance in C. elegans. Rg1 significantly reduced the expression of fatty acid synthesis-related genes and lipid metabolism-related genes in C. elegans. However, Rg1 did not affect the fat storage in fat-5/fat-6 double mutant or nhr-49 mutant. Combined with network pharmacology, we clarified the possible pathways and targets of Rg1 in lipid metabolism. In addition, Rg1-treated C. elegans showed a higher expression of anti-oxidative genes and heat shock proteins, which might contribute to stress resistance Conclusion: Rg1 reduced fat accumulation by regulating lipid metabolism via nhr-49 and enhanced stress resistance by its antioxidant effect in C. elegans.

In this study, the large-scale pullout tests are conducted to evaluate pullout resistance of steel strip reinforcement with transverse members. The test results clearly showed the passive effect by normal stress. This suggests that both friction resistance and passive resistance by normal stress should be taken into account in the evaluation of pullout resistance for design. Therefore, The evaluation results confirmed that the developed steel strip reinforcement with transverse members depend heavily on passive resistance by normal stress.
