The railroad transportation system has more advantages over other transportation systems in terms of low cost, safety and mass transportation The development in economy and social environments lead to the increase of the transportation between cities. As a result, the increased capacity of transportation system is required and maintenance of transportation facilities becomes more important, In the railroad system mud-pumping is one of the troubles to cause distortion of rails and progressive disrupture of subgrade. h this study, SASW measurements were performed to investigate stiffness structures at the sites with mud-pumping and without mud-pumping, Comparison of the stiffness structures revealed the mechanism of mud-pumping and provided information to choose measures for the mud-pumping.

Nano-scaled metal oxides have been attractive materials for sensors, photocatalysis, and dye-sensitization for solar cells. We report the controlled synthesis and characterization of single crystalline $TiO_2$ nanowires via a catalyst-assisted vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) and vapor-solid (VS) growth mechanism during TiO powder evaporation. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) studies show that as grown $TiO_2$ materials are one-dimensional (1D) nano-structures with a single crystalline rutile phase. Also, energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy indicates the presence of both Ti and O with a Ti/O atomic ratio of 1 to 2. Various morphologies of single crystalline $TiO_2$ nano-structures are realized by controlling the growth temperature and flow rate of carrier gas. Large amount of reactant evaporated at high temperature and high flow rate is crucial to the morphology change of $TiO_2$ nanowire.

A kinetic study on nucleophilic substitution reactions of phenyl Y-substituted-phenyl carbonates (5a-5j) with ethylamine in 80 mol % $H_2O$/20 mol % DMSO at $25.0{\pm}0.1^{\circ}C$ is reported. The plots of $k_{obsd}$ vs. [amine] are linear for the reactions of substrates possessing a strong electron-withdrawing group (EWG) but curve upward for those of substrates bearing a weak EWG, indicating that the electronic nature of the substituent Y in the leaving group governs the reaction mechanism. The reactions have been concluded to proceed through a stepwise mechanism with one or two intermediates (a zwitterionic tetrahedral intermediate $T^{\pm}$ and its deprotonated form $T^-$) depending on the nature of the substituent Y. Analysis of Bronsted-type plots and dissection of $k_{obsd}$ into microscopic rate constants have revealed that the reactions of substrates possessing a strong EWG (e.g., 5a-5f) proceed through $T^{\pm}$ with its formation being the rate-determining step, while those of substrates bearing a weak EWG (e.g., 5g-5j) proceed through $T^{\pm}$ and $T^-$.

A kinetic study is reported on nucleophilic substitution reactions of 4-nitrophenyl isonicotinate (7) with a series of cyclic secondary amines in MeCN. The plots of $k_{obsd}$ vs. [amine] curve upward for the reactions with weakly basic amines (e.g., morpholine, 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)piperazine, and piperazine) but are linear for those with strongly basic amines (e.g., piperidine and 3-methylpiperidine). The curved plots for the reactions with the weakly basic amines are typical for reactions reported previously to proceed through uncatalyzed and catalyzed routes with two intermediates (e.g., a zwitterionic tetrahedral intermediate $T^{\pm}$ and its deprotonated form $T^-$). In contrast, the linear plots for the reactions with the strongly basic amines indicate that the catalytic route (i.e., the deprotonation process to yield $T^-$ from $T^{\pm}$ by a second amine molecule) is absent. The Br${\o}$nsted-type plots for $Kk_2$ and $Kk_3$ (i.e., the rate constants for the uncatalyzed and catalyzed routes, respectively) exhibit excellent linear correlations with ${\beta}_{nuc}$ = 0.99 and 0.69, respectively. The effect of amine basicity on the reaction mechanism is discussed in detail.

Quasi-equilibrium profiles are analyzed through galvanostatic intermittent titration technique (GITT) and potentiostatic intermittent titration technique (PITT) to study the charge/discharge mechanism in multicomponent olivine structure ($LiMn_{1/3}Fe_{1/3}Co_{1/3}PO_4$). From GITT data, the degree of polarization is evaluated for the three regions corresponding to the redox couples of $Mn^{2+}/Mn^{3+}$, $Fe^{2+}/Fe^{3+}$ and $Co^{2+}/Co^{3+}$. From PITT data, the current vs. time responses are examined in each titration step to find out the mode of lithium de-intercalation/intercalation process. Furthermore, lithium diffusivities at specific compositions (x in $Li_xMn_{1/3}Fe_{1/3}Co_{1/3}PO_4$) are also calculated. Finally, total capacity ($Q^{total}$) and diffusional capacity ($Q^{diff}$) are obtained for some selected voltage steps. The entire study consistently confirms that the charge/discharge mechanism of multicomponent olivine cathode is associated with a one-phase reaction rather than a biphasic reaction.

The aim of this study was to investigate kinematic mechanism of gait different road conditions(dry vs. oil) in order women. For this study, twenty older women and ten young women participated in this research. twelve infrared cameras were used to collect data. It appeared that the gait strategies of older women were slower velocity and higher CoM than young women. Depending on road conditions, gait velocities of dominant muscle older women on dry surface were faster than dominant sense older women, but those of them were inverse on oil surface. The slip displacement of dominant muscle older women was less than young women, but the slip displacement of dominant sense older women was greater than young women. In case of blind during stance phase on oil surface, the rotational motion of the ankle and knee joints were increased. In conclusion, older women were subjected to self-organization theory and phase shift in dynamic theory.

일본 훗카이도와 그 주변 지역의 238개의 관측소에서 관측한 깊이 0~300km내에서 일어난 4050개의 지진 중 P파 64,024개와 5파 64,618개를 Kim과 Bae(2004)에 의해 개발된 3 성분 토모그래피에 이용하였다. Vp/Vs의 속도 이상대가 훗카이도와 그 주변 지역에서 명확하게 나타났다. Double Seismic Zone(DSZ)의 Seismic Planes는, 훗카이도 주변에서 지진 위험도가 높게 나타나는, 40~80Km의 깊이에서 훗카이도 아래로 태평양판이 섭입하는 것이 발견되었다. 모호 불연속면아래에서 높은 Vp/Vs 이상대의 발견은 Moriya(1994)에 의해 제안된, 쿠릴 열도(Okhotsk Plate 혹은 North American Plate)가 NE 일본 열도(Amurian Plate 혹은 Eurasian Plate)와 충돌하고, 동시에 태평양판이 훗카이도의 Central Tectonic Axis($142^{\circ}{\sim}143^{\circ}E$)와 Hikada Mountain Range(HMR) Corner를 따라 지체구조력의 균형을 이루는 두 개의 판 아래로 섭입하고 있는, 표면 삼중 충돌 가설의 증거이다. 낮은 Vp와 Vs는 장력을 나타내는 지진 메커니즘의 표현인 Central Tectonic Axis을 따라 동쪽과 서쪽에서 발견되었다. 이들 현상은 이 지역에서의 낮은 부게 중력 이상값과 일치한다. 이것은 왜 큰 지진의 대부분이 훗카이도의 3개의 지체구조력의 3중 접합점에 의해 지체구조력의 균형이 깨어지는, 훗카이도 바깥쪽에서 일어나는지 알 수 있다.

흑연 음극 표면상에 형성되는 필름의 생성 기구를 규명하기 위하여, 1 몰의 $LiPF_6$가 함유된 탄산에틸렌과 탄산디에칠의 혼합 용액 중에서 고배향성 열분해 흑연을 0.5 mV $s^{-1}$ 의 느린 속도로 전위주사하면서 원자력간 현미경을 이용하여 전극표면을 in-situ 관찰하였다. 전해질 용액의 분해반응은 전극의 스텝 모서리 상에서 우선적으로 진행되었으며, 전극 전위 2.15 V (vs. $Li^+$/Li) 에서 시작되었다. 0.95-0.8 V (vs. $Li^+$/Li) 의 전위 영역에서 전극 표면의 특정 부분이 평탄하게 부풀어오르는 현상과, 타원형의 돌기 구조가 관찰되었다. 이러한 형상 변화에 있어서 전자는 용매화된 리튬 이온이 흑연 층간에 삽입되며 나타나는 구조 변화이며, 후자는 삽입된 용매화 리튬이 환원 분해되어 생성된 것으로 추정된다. 0.8 V (vs. $Li^+$/Li) 보다 음의 전위 영역에서는 입자상의 침전물이 전극 표면에 형성되었다. 1 사이클 후, 측정된 침전층의 두께는 30 nm 이었다. 이러한 침전물은 리튬염($LiPF_6$)과 용매 분자(EC 및 DEC)들이 분해되어 생성된 것이며, 전극 표면에서 계속적으로 전해질 용액이 분해되는 반응을 억제하는 중요한 역할을 하고 있는 것으로 생각된다.

Kinetic studies of the reactions of O,O-diphenyl Z-S-aryl phosphorothioates with X-benzylamines have been carried out in dimethyl sulfoxide at 55.0 $^{\circ}C$. The Hammett (log $k_2$ vs ${\sigma}_X$) and Bronsted [log $k_2$ vs $pK_a(X)$] plots for substituent X variations in the nucleophiles are biphasic concave downwards with a maximum point at X = H, and the unusual positive ${\rho}_X$ and negative ${\beta}_X$ values are obtained for the strongly basic benzylamines. The sign of the cross-interaction constant (${\rho}_{XZ}$) is negative for both the strongly and weakly basic nucleophiles. Greater magnitude of ${\rho}_{XZ}$ value is observed with the weakly basic nucleophiles (${\rho}_{XZ}$ = -2.35) compared to with the strongly basic nucleophiles (${\rho}_{XZ}$ = -0.03). The deuterium kinetic isotope effects ($k_H/k_D$) involving deuterated benzylamines [$XC_6H_4CH_2ND_2$] are primary normal ($k_H/k_D$ > 1). The proposed mechanism is a concerted $S_N2$ involving a frontside nucleophilic attack with a hydrogen bonded, four-center-type transition state for both the strongly and weakly basic nucleophiles. The unusual positive ${\rho}_X$ and negative ${\beta}_X$ values with the strongly basic benzylamines are rationalized by through-space interaction between the ${\pi}$-clouds of the electron-rich phenyl ring of benzylamine and the phenyl ring of the leaving group thiophenoxide.

The subfornical organ (SFO) is one of circumventricular organs characterized by the lack of a normal blood brain barrier. The SFO neurons are exposed to circulating glutamate ($60{\sim}100{\mu}M$), which may cause excitotoxicity in the central nervous system. However, it remains unclear how SFO neurons are protected from excitotoxicity caused by circulating glutamate. In this study, we compared the glutamate-induced whole cell currents in SFO neurons to those in hippocampal CA1 neurons using the patch clamp technique in brain slice. Glutamate ($100{\mu}M$) induced an inward current in both SFO and hippocampal CA1 neurons. The density of glutamate-induced current in SFO neurons was significantly smaller than that in hippocampal CA1 neurons (0.55 vs. 2.07 pA/pF, p<0.05). To further identify the subtype of the glutamate receptors involved, the whole cell currents induced by selective agonists were then compared. The current densities induced by AMPA (0.45 pA/pF) and kainate (0.83 pA/pF), non-NMDA glutamate receptor agonists in SFO neurons were also smaller than those in hippocampal CA1 neurons (2.44 pA/pF for AMPA, p<0.05; 2.34 pA/pF for kainate, p< 0.05). However, the current density by NMDA in SFO neurons was not significantly different from that of hippocampal CA1 neurons (1.58 vs. 1.47 pA/pF, p>0.05). These results demonstrate that glutamate-mediated action through non-NMDA glutamate receptors in SFO neurons is smaller than that of hippocampal CA1 neurons, suggesting a possible protection mechanism from excitotoxicity by circulating glutamate in SFO neurons.
