The hydrogen storage mechanism of graphite was studied by measuring the electrical resistance change. Graphite was expanded and activated to allow for an easy hydrogen molecule approach and to enlarge the adsorption sites. A vanadium catalyst was simultaneously introduced on the graphite during the activation process. The hydrogen storage increased due to the effects of expansion, activation, and the catalyst. In addition, the electrical resistance of the prepared samples was measured during hydrogen molecule adsorption to investigate the hydrogen adsorption mechanism. It was found that the electrical resistance changed as a result of the easy hydrogen molecule approach, as well as of the adsorption process and the catalyst. It was also notable that the catalyst improved not only the hydrogen storage capacity but also the speed of hydrogen storage based on the response time. The hydrogen storage mechanism is suggested based on the effects of expansion, activation, and the catalyst.

Electrical analysis of red, green and blue (RGB) organic light emitting diode (OLED), which were measured at various temperatures from 230K to 370K by steps of 20K, were investigated using current-voltage(I-V) characteristics. Ideality factor and series resistance were obtained from the thermionic emission theory. Experimental results showed that the ideality factors were 2.12 for red, 3.80 for green, and 6.03 for blue OLED at 290K, respectively. The series resistance were 1960, 2190, 2630$\Omega$ for red, green and blue OLED at the same temperature. It was found that the OLED ideality factors were much higher than near unity for well-behaved silicon diodes, because of the organic material and multi-layer fabrication diode. In addition, the series resistance was near 2k$\Omega$ range. More researches are required to reduce both ideality factors and series resistance to increase the efficiency of OLEDs.

The ppage resistance mechanism of Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris ATCC 11602-A1 was investigated. When parent and A1 were incubated at 30 and 40$^{\circ}C$, A1 grew well and multiplication of phage(MOI=1)on A1 slightly occurred at 40$^{\circ}C$ in contrast with parent. There was a great difference of proteolytic activity between parent and A1, irrespective of the temperature. As a result of ADS treatment oon culture broth, survival rate of A1 was 27% at the lethal concentration of parent and adsorption rate of phage was increased to 95~97%, which was considered to come from the exposure of phage receptor site masked by an unknown component. These results suggest that acridine orange (AO) treatment leads to the modification of cell wall, conferring resistance to high temperature and lytic phage. No change in plasmid profiles of A1 at 30 and 40$^{\circ}C$ were found, which suggests that plasmid is not relative to temperature-resistance of A1.

The resistance of printed patterns for electrodes fabricated using printing technology should be minimized. This parameter depends on the pattern width and thickness; however, from the viewpoint of printability, the printed patterns should be printed at the designed width. The resistance of the printed patterns as well as printability is affected by various printing conditions. In this paper, the printing condition is optimized to minimize the resistance of electrodes printed by the roll-to-roll gravure method. This is done by considering the spread ratio of pattern width as a parameter of printability using design experiments. The drying temperature, dryer fan speed, and printing speed are selected as effective factors for the experiment objective. The optimized conditions are obtained and reproducibility test using these demonstrates that the optimized conditions can produce low-resistance electrodes for printability of the pattern width.

The aim of this study is to investigate the seismic resistance of dry stone arches under in-plane seismic loading. For that purpose, several numerical analyses were performed using the combined finite-discrete element method (FDEM). Twelve types of arches with different ratios of a rise at the mid-span to the span, different thicknesses of stone blocks and different numbers of stone blocks in the arch were subjected to an incremental dynamic analysis based on excitation from three real horizontal and vertical ground motions. The minimum value of the failure peak ground acceleration that caused the collapse of the arch was adopted as a measure of the seismic resistance. In this study, the collapse mechanisms of each type of stone arch, as well as the influence of the geometry of stone blocks and stone arches on the seismic resistance of structures were observed. The conclusions obtained on the basis of the performed numerical analyses can be used as guidelines for the design of dry stone arches.

Background : This study was conducted to know the effect of resistance exercise using thera-band in parallel with conservative therapy in patients with frozen shoulder. Methods : We analyze subjective pain scale, ROM and shoulder functional scale 24 patients diagnosed with adhesive capsulitis were included for study. Among them, 12 patients(experiment group) were managed by resistance exercise as well as conservative physical therapy, another 12 patients(control group) were only treated by conservative therapy alone. All the patients were treated three times a week for 4 weeks, and after, and after each treatment subjective pain scale, ROM, shoulder functional score(SFI) were measured. Results : The VAS were significant reduced between experimental group and control group according to pre-treatment and post-treatment. In experimental group, the ROM and SFI has increased than control group according to pre-treatment and post-treatment. Conclusion : According to the results, we concluded that both conservative therapy and self resistance exercise using thera-band technique are more effective for increasing ROM especially flexion, abduction, internal rotation and SFI than conservative therapy alone.

At present, the problem to secure seismic resistance capacity is one of the most important issue in school buildings. However, the range of facilities to consider retrofit or the proper direction of seismic retrofit haven't provided in details. Therefore in this study, a series of school buildings were chosen as established time, and the structure composition and the seismic performance of the school buildings were investigated to get the comprehensive features of seismic resistance capacity in school buildings. At result, it was presented that the member capacities were less than criteria and structure system was showed the brittle behavior at the collapse prevention level at the school buildings before 1990 year. At the school buildings after 1990 year, though it is hard to get general features for various compositions, it was presented that they have problems for seismic performance evaluation in some buildings at life safety level, specially in the direction of X axis. So, considering the introduction process of seismic criteria in Korea, the school buildings before 2005 year should be examined for seismic resistance capacity and the seismic performance should be examined as well as member capacity to resist seismic.

An electrochemical evaluation on the corrosion resistance for heavy anticorrosive paint was carried out for 5 kinds of heavy anticorrosive paints such as High solid epoxy(HE), Solvent epoxy(SE), Tar epoxy(TE), Phenol epoxy(PE), and Ceramic epoxy(CE) as parameters of DFT(Dry Film Thickness, 25${\mu}m$50${\mu}m$, solution condition(Flow of Nonflow). Corrosion current density of HE(DFT 50${\mu}m$ in case of flow condition was larger than that of nonflow condition. However, their values of the other anticorrosive paints were decreased compared to the nonflow condition. The values of AC impedance were increased with increasing of DFT regardless of kinds of anticorrosive paints. And the polarization resistance of cyclic voltammogram showed a good tendency to correspond with well the values of AC impedance measurement. HE and CE had a relatively good corrosion resistance than other heavy anticorrosive paint.

In general, the oxi-nitriding method is well known as such a surface treatment way for substantial enhancement in corrosion resistance, even comparable to that of titanium. However, there are still lacks of information on thermal performance of the oxi-nitriding surface being of additional compound layers on the base substrate. Above all, the quantitative measurement of its thermal performance still was not evaluated yet. Thus, the present study experimentally measures the thermal resistance of the oxi-nitriding surface during droplet evaporation and then estimates heat transfer performance with the use of the onedimensional heat transfer model in vertical direction. From the experimental results, it is found that the total evaporation time slightly increased with the thermal resistance caused by the oxi-nitriding layer, showing a maximum difference of approximately 20% with that of the bare surface. Although the heat transfer performance of oxi-nitriding surface became slightly lower than that of the bare surface, the oxi-nitriding surface exhibits much better heat transfer performance compared to titanium.

In oder to improve the wear resistance as well as oxidation resistance at high temperature a AISI H13 steel was treated by a duplex process of calorizing followed by plasma nitriding. The surface properties of the duplex-treated AISI H13 steel was characterized and compared with those treated by single surface process of calorizing and plasma nitriding, in terms of microstruture, microhardness, wear resistance at $500^{\circ}C$, and the oxidation behaviours at $700^{\circ}C$, Duplex process on H13 steel had created duplex layer of approximately $190\mu\textrm{m}$ on the surface, and surface microhardness was measured to be above 1450Hv(0.1Kgf). There was considerable improvement of the high temperature wear resistance at $500^{\circ}C$ in the duplex-treated steel when both wear volume and weight change due to oxidation were considered. In addition the duplex-treated steel showed an improved high temperature oxidation resistance than the plasma nitrided steel at $700^{\circ}C$.
