The aim of this study is to determine the drought stress index through photochemical analysis in red pepper (Capsiumannuum L.). The photochemical interpretation was performed in the basis of the relation between Kautsky effect and Photosystem II (PSII) following the measurement of chlorophyll, pheophytin contents, and $CO_2$ assimilation in drought stressed 5-week-old red pepper plants. The $CO_2$ assimilation rate was severely lowered with almost 77% reduction of chlorophyll and pheophytin contents at four days after non-irrigation. It was clearly observed that the chlorophyll fluorescence intensity rose from a minimum level (the O level), in less than one second, to a maximum level (the P-level) via two intermediate steps labeled J and I (OJIP process). Drought factor index (DFI) was also calculated using measured OJIP parameters. The DFI was -0.22, meaning not only the initial inhibition of PSII but also sequential inhibition of PSI. In real, most of all photochemical parameters such as quantum yield of the electron transport flux from Quinone A ($Q_A$) to Quinone B ($Q_B$), quantum yield of the electron transport flux until the PSI electron acceptors, quantum yield of the electron transport flux until the PSI electron acceptors, average absorbed photon flux per PSII reaction center, and electron transport flux until PSI acceptors per cross section were profoundly reduced except number of QA reducing reaction centers (RCs) per PSII antenna chlorophyll (RC/ABS). It was illuminated that at least 6 parameters related with quantum yield/efficiency and specific energy fluxes (per active PSII RC) could be applied to be used as the drought stress index. Furthermore, in the combination of parameters, driving forces (DF) for photochemical activity could be deduced from the performance index (PI) for energy conservation from photons absorbed by PSII antenna until the reduction of PSI acceptors. In conclusion, photochemical responses and their related parameters can be used as physiological DFI.

The effect of stress induced phase transformation on $Al_2 O_3$ matrix dispersed with $ZrO_2-Y_2O_3$ has been studied. In order to determinate the mechanical properties three $Al_2O_3-ZrO_2$ composite series containing 1, 3 and 5 mole% $Y_2O_3$ were prepared. The starting materials were $Al_2O_3$ and $ZrO_2-Y_2O_3$ which was prepared from the aqueous solution of high purity $YCl_3$.$6H_2O$ and $ZrOCl_2$.$8H_2O$. Powder mixtures of $Al_2O_3-ZrO_2$ containing $Y_2O_3$ have been prepared by ball-milling with methanol and the samples were formed by isostatic press and sintered at 150$0^{\circ}C$ for 2hrs. After sintering. the specimens were polished for mechanical determination. The relative density of sintered specimens were also measured. It was found that the addition of 1, 3mole% to {{{{ { ZrO}_{2 } }} allowed full retention of the tetragonal phase in $Al_2O_3-ZrO_2$ but partially stabilized zirconia (PSZ) was produced by additions of 5 mole% $Y_2O_3$.The critical stress-intensity factor KIc of $A_2O_3-ZrO_2$ (containing 1 mole% $Y_2O_3$) composite materials increased with increasing $ZrO_2$ content, The maximum value of KIC=7Mn/$m^3$/2 at 20 mole% $ZrO_2$ exhibited about twice that of the $Al_2 O_3$ The modulus of rupture exhibited a trend similiar to KIC The maximum value of MOR was 580MN/m2. As the amount of Y2O3 increase it was observed that the maximum of KIC and MOR decreased : Additions of 3 mole% $Al_2O_3$ $Y_2O_3$ allowed the maximum of KIC 6MN/$m^3$/2 MOR 540MN/$m^2$ at 15 mole% $ZrO_2$ additions of 5 mole% $Y_2O_3$ allowed the maximum of KIC 5MN/$m^3$/2 MOR 410MN/$m^2$ at 10 mole% $ZrO_2$.

Recently, with the tendency of more lightening, high-strength and high-speed in the marine industries such as marine structures, ships and chemical plants, the use of the aluminium Alloy is rapidly enlarge and there occurs much interest in the study of corrosion fatigue crack characteristics. In this paper, the initiation of surface crack and the propagation characteristics on the base metal and weld zone of 5086-H116 Aluminium Alloy Plate which is one of the Al-Mg serious alloy(A5000serious) used most when building the special vessels, were investigated by the plane bending corrosion fatigue under the environments of marine, air and applying cathodic protection. The effects of various specific resistances on the initiation, propagation behavior of corrosion fatigue crack and corrosion fatigue life in the base metal and heat affected zone were examined and its corrosion sensitivity was quantitatively obtained. The effects of corrosion on the crack depth in relation to the uniform surface crack length were also investigated. Also, the structural, mechanical and electro-chemical characteristics of the metal at the weld zone were inspected to verify the reasons of crack propagation behavior in the corrosion fatigue fracture. In addition, the effect of cathodic protection in the fracture surface of weld zone was examined fractographically by Scanning Electron Microscope(S.E.M.). The main results obtained are as follows; (1) The initial corrosion fatigue crack sensitibity under specific resistance of 25Ω.cm% show 2.22 in the base metal and 19.6 in the HEZ, and the sensitivity decreases as specific resistance increases (2) By removing reinforcement of weldment, the initiation and propagation of corrosion crack in the HAZ are delayed, and corrosion fatigue life increases. (3) As specific resistance decreases, the sensitivity difference of corrosion fatigue life in the base metal and HAZ is more susceptible than that of intial corrosion fatigue crack. (4) Experimental constant, m(Paris' rule) in the marine environment is in the range of about 3.69 to 4.26, and as specific resistance increases, thje magnitude of experimental constant, also increases and the effect by corrosion decreases. (5) Comparing surface crack length with crack depth, the crack depth toward the thickness of specimen in air is more deeply propagated than that in corrosion environment. (6) The propagation particulars of corrosion fatigue crack for HAZ under initial stress intensity factor range of $\Delta$k sub(li) =27.2kgf.mm super(-3/2) and stress ratio of R=0 shows the retardative phenomenon of crack propagation by the plastic deformation at crack tip. (7) Number of stress cycles to corrosion fatigue crack initiation of the base metal and the welding heat affected zone are delayed by the cathodic protection under the natural sea water. The cathodic protection effect for corrosion fatigue crack initiation is eminent when the protection potential is -1100 mV(SCE). (8) When the protection potential E=-1100 mV(SCE), the corrosion fatigue crack propagation of welding heat affected zone is more rapid than that of the case without protection, because of the microfissure caused by welding heat cycle.

Autophagy is a process of intracellular bulk protein degradation, in which the accumulated proteins and cytoplasmic organelles are degraded. It plays important roles in cellular homeostasis, apoptosis, and development, but its role during early embryo development remains contentious. Therefore, in the present study, we investigated the effects of 3-methyladenine (3-MA) on early embryonic development in pigs, we also investigated several indicators of developmental potential, including mitochondrial distribution, genes expressions (autophagy-, apoptosis- related genes), apoptosis and ER-stress, which are affected by 3-MA. After in vitro maturation and fertilization, presumptive pig embryos were cultured in PZM-3 medium supplemented with 3-MA for 2 days at $39^{\circ}C$ 5% $CO_2$ in air. Developmental competence to the blastocyst stage in the presence of 3-MA was gradually decreased according to increasing concentration. Thus, all further experiments were performed using 2 mM 3-MA. Blastocysts that developed in the 3-MA treated group decreased LC3-II intensity and expressions of autophagy related genes than those of the untreated control, resulting in down-regulates the autophagy. Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL) showed that the number of containing fragmented DNA at the blastocyst stage increased in the 3-MA treated group compared with control ($6.0{\pm}1.0$ vs $3.3{\pm}0.6$, p<0.05). Also, the expression of the pro-apoptotic gene Bax increased in 3-MA treated group, whereas expression of the anti-apoptotic gene Bcl-XL decreased. Mito Tracker Green FM staining showed that blastocysts derived from the 3-MA treated group had lower mitochondrial integrity than that of the untreated control, resulting in decrease the embryonic qualities of preimplantation porcine blastocysts. Then, the expression of the spliced form of pXBP-1 product (pXBP-1s) increased in 3-MA treated group, resulting increase of ER-stress. Taken together, these results indicate that inhibition of autophagy by 3-MA is closely associated with apoptosis and ER-stress during preimplantation periods of porcine embryos.

The effects of lowering ECAP temperature during ECAP process and Post-ECAP annealing on microstructure, texture and mechanical properties of the AZ31 alloys have been investigated in the present study. The as-extruded materials were ECAP processed to 2 passes at 553K prior to subsequent pressing up to 6 passes at 523K or 493K. When this method of lowering ECAP temperature during ECAP was used, the rods could be successfully deformed up to 6 passes without any surface cracking. Grain refinement during ECAP process at 553K might have helped the material to endure further straining at lower deformation temperatures probably by increasing the strain accommodation effect by grain boundary sliding, causing stress relaxation. Texture modification during ECAP has a great influence on the strength of Mg alloys because HCP metals have limited number of slip systems. As slip is most prone to take place on basal planes in Mg at room temperature, the rotation of high fraction of basal planes to the directions favorable for slip as in ECAP decreases the yield stress appreciably. The strength of AZ31 Mg alloys increases with decrease of grain size if the texture is constant though ECAP deformation history is different. A standard positive strength dependence on the grain size for Mg alloys with the similar texture (Fig. 1) supports that the softening of ECAPed Mg alloys (a negative slope) typically observed despite the significant grain refinement is due to the texture modification where the rotation of basal planes occurs towards the orientation for easier slip. It could be predicted that if the original fiber texture is restored after ECAP treatment yielding marked grain refinement, yield stress as high as 500 MPa will be obtained at the grain size of ${\sim}1{\mu}m$. Differential speed rolling (DSR) with a high speed ratio between the upper and lower rolls was applied to alter the microstructure and texture of the AZ31 sheets. Significant grain refinement took place during the rolling owing to introduction of large shear deformation. Grain size as small as $1.4{\mu}m$ could be obtained at 423K after DSR. There was a good correlation between the (0002) pole intensity and tensile elongation. This result indicates that tensile ductility improvement in the asymmetrically rolled AZ31 Mg alloys is closely related to the weakening of basal texture during DSR. Further basal texture weakening occurred during annealing after DSR. According to Hall-Petch relation shown in Fig. 1, the strength of the asymmetrically rolled AZ31 is lower than that of the symmetrically rolled one when compared at the same grain size. This result was attributed to weakening of fiber texture during DSR. The DSRed AZ31, however, shows higher strength than the ECAPed AZ31 where texture has been completely replaced by a new texture associated with high Schmid factors.

현장 평판재하시험은 평판에 작용하는 하중과 변위를 동시에 측정하기 때문에 역학적인 특성치 결정의 가능성이 높은 시험방법이다. 그러나 지금까지 평판재하시험으로부터 추정한 탄성계수는 일정 변위를 유발한 하중강도하에서의 지지력계수로부터 구한 하나의 상수값으로서, 이는 포장구조에서 노상이 경험하는 사용하중 단계에서의 대표적인 변형특성치로 결정하기에는 어려움이 있다. 포장설계시 사용되는 회복탄성계수 개념의 변형계수는 중간변형률$(0.01\%\sim0.1\%)$ 영역에서의 값으로서, 현장 노상토의 경우에도 이와 같은 변형률 범위에서의 변형계수를 평가하는 것이 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 노상 현장에서 반복평판재하시험을 이용하여 중간변형률 영역에서의 변형계수를 산정하는 방법을 제안하였다. 이의 신뢰성을 검토하기 위하여 현장에서 크로스홀 시험과 실내에서 공진주시험을 수행하여 전체변형률 영역에서의 현장의 변형특성을 평가하여 평판재하시험 결과와 비교하였다. 두 시험결과 사이의 응력상태를 고려하면 변형률에 따른 변형계수의 값과 경향이 비교적 일치하였고, 제안된 반복식 평판재하시험을통해 현장변형계수의 평가가 가능함을 알 수 있었다.

철도교량은 무거운 축하중이 작용하여 구조부재의 전체 강도에서 활하중이 차지하는 비율이 높기 때문에 피로에 의한 손상이 클 뿐만 아니라 계속적으로 변화하는 하중환경에 의해 피로손상이 빠르게 진행될 가능성이 있으므로 이에 대한 안전성을 체계적이고 분석적으로 평가할 수 있는 방법이 요구된다. 철도교량에서 구조부재별 피로균열의 생성위치 및 성장속도는 발생응력의 범위와 횟수, 구조시스템의 강성에 관련되어 있다. 구조시스템의 강성은 계획주체, 설계자, 시공자, 유지관리주체 각각의 특성과 불확실성을 포함하고 있으며, 시간의존적 하중과 저항의 특성에 의해서 추계학적으로 변화하게 된다. 그러므로 이러한 하중 및 저항에서의 각각의 불확실성을 정량적이고 객관적으로 표현할 수 있는 신뢰성에 기초한 평가기법을 개발하였다. 철도 및 지하철교량 등의 피로파괴에 대한 확률론적 평가를 위하여 응답면 기법(Response Surface Method, RSM)과 일계이차 모멘트 기법(First Order Second Moment method, FOSM)을 사용하여 피로균열진전과 잔존수명을 평가하였다. 응력변동 범위를 설계변수로 변화시키면서, 중요한 설계입력 변수로 한계상태 방정식을 구성하고 다양한 피로 수명(100년, 75년 등)후의 파괴확률을 예측하여 설계피로수명에 대한 신뢰성 지수계산 및 발생확률을 분석사례로 제시하였다.

The wintertime upwind flow in the Yellow Sea has been investigated through a series of two-dimensional numerical experiments in an idealized basin. A total of 10 experiments have been carried out to examine the effects of wind forcing, bottom friction and the presence of oceanic currents sweeping the shelf of the East China Sea. A spatially uniform steady and periodic wind stresses are considered along with comparison of linear and quadratic formulations. The wind-driven flow in the absence of oceanic current has been computed using Proudman open boundary condition (POBC), while the wind-driven current in the presence of oceanic current has been computed using Flather’s radiation condition (FOBC). The oceanic currents to be prescribed at the open boundary have been simulated by specifying uniform sea level gradients across the Taiwan Strait and the eastern ECS shelf, Calculations show that, as seen in Lee et al. (2000), oceanic flow little penetrates into the Yellow Sea in the absence of wind forcing unless a unrealistically low rate of bottom frictional dissipation is assumed. Both steady and time-periodic wind stresses invoke the upwind flow along the central trough of the Yellow Sea, independently of the presence of the oceanic current. The presence of oceanic currents very marginally alters the north-south gradient of the sea surface elevation in the Yellow Sea. Changes in the intensity and direction of the wind-induced mean upwind flow are hardly noticeable in the Yellow Sea but are found to be significant near Cheju Island where the gradient is reduced and therewith contribution of Ekman transport increases. In case of steady wind forcing circulation patterns such as two gyres on the slope sides, a cyclonic gyre on the western slope and an anticyclonic gyre on the eastern slope persist and the upwind flow composes part of the cyclonic gyre in the Yellow Sea. While in case of the time-periodic wind stress the appearance and disappearance of the patterns are repeated according to the time variation of the wind stress and the upwind flow accordingly varies with phase delay, mostly intensifying near the time when the wind forcing is approximately near the middle of the decaying stage.
