A spectrophotometric and first derivative spectrophotometric method was developed in aquatic Tween 80 micellar solutions for selective determination of nickel without using any pre-separation step. 1-(2-Pyridylazo)-2-naphthol (PAN), as a sensitive chromogenic complexing agent formed a red-colored Ni(II)-PAN complex in Tween 80 media with satisfactory solubility and stability. Conditions such as pH, PAN concentration, type and concentration of micellizing agent were optimized. Molar absorptivity of Ni-PAN complex was found $4.62\;{\times}\;10^4L\;cm^{?1}\;mol^{?1}$ at 569 nm, under the optimum condition. Calibration graphs were derived by zero, first and second derivative spectrophotometry at maximum wavelengths of 569, 578 and 571 nm with linear ranges of 30-1800, 20-2500 and 30-2000 ng $mL^{?1}$ , respectively. Precision as standard deviation as well as accuracy as recovery percent were in the range of 1-20 ng $mL^{?1}$, and 93.3-103.3%, respectively, for the entire of the linear ranges. Spectrophotometric detection limit was 3 ng $mL^{?1}$ and effects of diverse ions on the first derivative determination of nickel were studied to investigate selectivity of the method. Interferences of cobalt and copper on the nickel determination were prevented using o-phenanthroline as masking agent. The recommended procedures were applied to the various synthetic and stainless steel alloys, tea leaves and human hair, with satisfactory results.

A simple, selective and sensitive fluorescence quenching method was developed to the determination Cr(VI). The method is based on the oxidation of $I^-\;to\;{{I_3}^-}$ by Cr(VI) in sulfuric acid solution followed by immediate formation of ion association compound between I3 − and rhodamine 6G in Tween-80 micellar media at room temperature. The influence of several surfactants on rhodamine 6G fluorescence signal was studied; particular attention was paid in the aggregation behavior of rhodamine 6G–Tween-80 system. The experimental parameters (e.g., type of surfactant, reagent concentration) were studied and the optimal conditions were established. The linear calibration graph was obtained in the range 2.0 - 100.0 ng m$L^{-1}$ Cr(VI). The detection limit of the method was 0.37 ng m$L^{-1}$. The relative standard deviation (R.S.D.) is less than 5% (n = 5). The efficiency of the method for the determination of Cr(VI) in the presence of Cr(III) in the sample was investigated. The method was applied successfully to the determination of Cr(VI) and total Cr in water, and liver tissue samples.

This paper is to derive the Intensity-Duration-Frequency Curve at Kong-Ju area after estimating probable rainfall depths using Rainfall Frequency Atlas of Korea. It has been suggested that the probable rainfall intensity formulas should be classified by short and long term basis in this area. The coefficients of determination of the probable rainfall intensity formulas are calculated as high as 0.9924 through 0.9971. Four types of rainfall intensity formulas such as Talbot type, Sherman type, Japanese type, General type are considered to determine the best type for the Kong-Ju area. Sherman type applied in this study can be determined as the representative probable rainfall intensity formula in the area. Therefore the rainfall intensity formulas for the selected return period in this study provide valuable insight into the estimation of the rainfall intensity. The developed Intensity-Duration-Frequency Curve can be used to provide a better hydraulic design at Kong-Ju area.

Abstract: A minimum commitment method(MCM) was applied to predict the long-term creep rupture life for type 316LN stainless steel(SS). Lots of the creep-rupture data for the type 316LN SS were collected through world-wide literature surveys and the experimental data of KAERI. Using these data, the long-term creep rupture life above ${10}^5$ hour was predicted by means of the MCM. In order to obtain the most appropriate value for the constant A being used in the MCM equation, trial and error method was used for the wide ranges from -0.12 to 0.12, and the best value was determined by using the coefficient of determination, $R^2$ which is a statistical parameter. A suitable value for the A in type 316LN stainless steel was found to be at -0.02 ~ -0.05 ranges. It is considered that the MCM will be superior in creep-life prediction to commonly-used timetemperature parametric method, because the P(T) and G($\sigma$) functions are determined from the regression method based on experimental data.

The purpose of this study is to find out differences on self-determination experiences according to livings in the different types of residential homes: large institutions, small group homes and independent living homes. For this, this study analyzed 17 living experiences, which came from interviews on 9 research participants lived in residential homes. Some of 9 research participants had experience living in only one type of residential homes; others had experiences living in two or three types of residential homes. The result of this study revealed the different levels of self-determination experiences according to the each types of residential homes. In terms of degree of self-determination, its level in the small group homes are higher than large institutions; independent living homes are higher than the small group homes. By this finding, this paper raised the need for the policy changes on residential home for the disabled people to accelerate deinstitutionalization and make sure higher level of self-determination of disabled people. This study suggested other implications related to the research on intellectually disabled people. Firstly, evaluative researches on service provisions to intellectually disabled people should reflect subjective experiences of service users. Secondly, diverse researches focusing on subjective experiences should be tried to expand understanding on intellectually disabled people. In these studies, conversation analysis could be widely used.

A mathematical model for the prediction of carbon-dioxide absorption rate during the transient state of rotary type absorber is developed. The rotary type absorber operates using a fast rotating porous structure and clean water. The model for the transient state rotary type absorbers is based on the steady state model of packed tower absorber. The paper manipulates the operating data of an arbitrary quasi-steady state condition of rotary type absorber for the determination of the coefficients involved in the model developed. The prediction accuracy is evaluated from the measured data of rotary type absorber operated under fast transient state. The measured data include the mole fraction of carbon dioxide in mixed gas and the pressure of absorber. The relative error in carbon dioxide prediction is estimated to be 20% at maximum. The model is successfully applied for the prediction of the behavior of a closed cycle diesel engine.

In order to facilitate the quantification in autumnal Hamamelidaceae leaves, a HPLC method was used for the determination of two chlorophyll catabolites and their isomers: bilin-type (1) and bilinone-type (2) ones. The separation was done on a RP-C4 column with a gradient solvent system of 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid aqueous-methanol at the flow-rate of 0.2 mL/min and detected at 244 nm. The quantity of bilin-type (1) and bilinone-type (2) chlorophyll catabolite isomers from ten species of Hamamelidaceae autumnal leaves methanol extracts: Corylopsis pauciflora, Corylopsis spicata, Forthergilla major, Hamamelis intermedia, Hamamelis japonicum, Hamamelis japonicum var. flavopurpurscens, Hamamelis virginiana, Parrotiopsis jacquemontiana, Parrotia persica and X Sycoparrotia semidecidua were from 0.85 mg/g ~ 57.50 mg/g for bilin-type isomers (1) and 3.40 mg/g ~ 49.30 mg/g for bilinone-type isomers (2). The results obtained gave insight in quantitative bilintype (1) and bilinone-type (2) chlorophyll catabolite composition of the Hamamelidaceae plant species autumnal leaves.

This study was investigated with sample digestion techniques and a reliability of the analytical results for a quantitative analysis of a standard reference material ('urban particulate matter', SRM 1648). The metallic elements were analyzed by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) with closed vessel microwave acid digestion method and atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS). Quality control of the overall analytical procedures for metallic element determinations of standard reference material were estimated by analysis of a SRM 1648. Three digestion solutions $(type\;1:\;HNO_3,\;type\;2:\;HNO_3\;and\;H2O_2(4'1)\;mixture,\;type\;3:5.55\%\; HNO_3\;and\;16.75\%\;HCI\;mixture)$ were applied to SRM 1648. As a result, three digestion solutions used in this study are completely unable to digest Cr of SRM 1648. Reliability of Cr and As showed some errors in the digestion with digestion solution type (3) due to the influence of chlorides. Type (3) digestion solutions are sufficient to fulfill the digestion of As as well as Se in SRM 1648. ICP-MS results showed the improvement in accurate and precise determination of some trace elements like Cd, V and Pb in SRM 1648. It is important to use the proper digestion solution for each element to qualify analytical precision.

High fluidity concrete needs high dosage of superplasticizer to acquire sufficient fluidity and high contents of fine powder and viscosity agents to prevent segregation. But it requires high manufacturing cost and has difficult in quality control. Therefore, in this paper, determination of optimal mixture proportion of segregation type superplasticizer for high fluidity concrete and manufacturing high fluidity concrete by applying developed segregation reducing type superplasticizer are discussed using flowing concrete method. According to test results, as dosage of superplasticizer increases, it shows that fluidity and bleeding increase, while air contents and ratio of segregation resistance decrease. It also shows that adding viscosity agent into it reduce bleeding and improve segregation resistance. Dosage of AE agent into it containing viscosity agent recovers loss of air contents during flowing procedure. Combination of proper contents of superplasticizer, viscosity agent and AE agent make possible to develope segregation reducing type superplasticizer Compressive strength of high fluidity concrete applying flowing method with it is higher than that of base concrete. No differences of compressive strength between compacting methods are found.
