Monorail has been classified as straddled type and suspended type. However, Inchon Wolmi Eunha rail, a center guide type first ever introduced in the world, uses a new concept Y-Beam as guide rail. Since Y-Beam takes horizontal loads of monorail through guide wheels, it is an essential structure for the safe operation along with concrete surface and steel beam which take vertical loads through main tires. This study presents the characteristic and reliability of Y-Beam and Y-Beam fixture, clamp, which are not only taking horizontal loads but also guarantying both guiding and stability of monorail and holding power supply line.

$In_1-x$$GA_X$$As_y$$P_1-y$ has a very wide range of applications in optoelectronic devices especially for optical communications because $In_1-x$$GA_X$$As_y$$P_1-y$ has the bandgap of the lowest dispersion ($1.3\mum$) and the lowest loss ( $1.55\mum$) of the optical fiber by changing the composition. The quality of $In_1-x$$GA_X$$As_y$$P_1-y$ epitaxial layer is believed to have a significant effect on the performance of device. The OMVPE growth conditions for the latticematched $In_1x$$GA_X$$As_y$$P_1-y$/InP were investigated. Effects of growth conditions such as V/III ratio, growth temperature, and Ga source material on the electrical and optical properties were studied. The composition, electrical and optical properities of $In_1-x$$GA_X$$As_y$$P_1-y$ were characterized using double crystal X-ray diffractometer (DCD), photoluminescence (PL), XPS(ESCA) and Hall measurement.

Immunoglobulin Y (IgY) obtained from chicken as the immunization host brings several advantages to antibody production, such as improved yield, lower cost, longer stability and higher specificity than mammalian immunoglobulin. In the present study, we attempted to produce IgY against a sialic acid-binding lectin, Maackia fauriei agglutinin (MFA), from egg yolk of white Leghorn hens. For the isolation of IgY from egg yolk, we applied a water dilution method. The weekly yield of IgY was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, with a final yield of anti-MFA IgY from total IgY of approximately $1\%$. The yielded IgY were used to prepare IgY-affinity column conjugated with CNBr-activated Sepharose 4B, which resulted in the lectin being successfully purified in a single step from Maackia fauriei. This purified lectin exhibited the same hemagglutination activity as lectin purified using conventional purification methods.

Mg-8Li-4AI 합금의 부식특성에 미치는 Y의영향을 전기화학적 분극시험 및 침지시험을 통하여 조사하였다. 전기 화학적 분극시험에서는 Y첨가량이 증가함에 따라 활성화 영역이 감소하엿고 부식전위가 증가하였으며, Y이 4.08wt% 첨가된 경우가 Y이 첨가되지 않은 경우에 비해 부식속도가 크게 감소하였다. 침지시험에서도 Y의 첨가량이 증가함에 따라 Y을 첨가하지 않은 시편에 비하여 무게감량 및 부시속도가 감소하였으며, Y이 첨가되지 않은 합금의 부식속도는 침지시간에 따라 급격히 증가하였지만 Y이 첨가되지 않은 합금의 부식속도는 침지시간에 따라 급격히 증가하였지만 Y이 4.8wt% 첨가된 합금은 96시간 이후부터 더 이상 증가하지 않았다. 이러한 결과는 Y 화합물(Mg24Y5)이 $\alpha$/$\beta$계면에서 희생 양극으로 작용하였기 때문이라고 생각된다. 따라서 Y의 첨가는 Mg-Li-AI 합금의 내식성을 향상시키는 역할을 한 것으로 판단된다.

To fabricate large grain YBCO bulk superconductors by melt process, Sm123 single crystal with a high melting point are mostly used as seeds. However, it also uses Y123 film deposited on MgO single crystal substrate. This study investigated the growth behavior of the Y123 grain during a melt process when single grain YBCO bulk was used as a seed. Single grain Y123 bulk was grown when the seed size was small. When the seed size was relatively large, multiple grains were grown but the grains were still large. Y123 seed crystal was completely decomposed during high temperature anneal at 1040℃ and new Y123 crystals were nucleated during a slow cooling stage below a peritectic temperature. Thereafter, newly formed Y123 crystals from the seed area are thought to grow into the Y1.8 powder compact. The crystallographic orientations of newly nucleated Y123 grains are independent of the crystallographic orientation of Y123 seed. It is thought that the crystallographic orientation of newly nucleated Y123 crystal can be controlled by using Y211-free Y123 single crystal as a seed of homo-seeding melt growth.

To identify the useful biological activities and the superiority in quality of Korean traditional liquors, we prepared the alcohol-free concentrates from different types of commercial traditional liquors, Takju ($T1{\sim}T3$), Yakju/Cheongju ($Y-1{\sim}Y-5$), Fruit wine (F-1) and Soju (S-1, S-2), respectively. We investigate their compositions as well as antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anti-thrombosis activity. Among the 11 traditional liquors, Y-3, Y-4, Y-5 and F-1 showed higher total-polyphenol, total-flavonoids and reducing sugars than the others. The strong antibacterial and anti-thrombosis activities were identified in Y-3, Y-4, Y-5 and F-1, and a minor antioxidant activity was found in F-l. The antibacterial activity of the Y-3, Y-4, Y-5 and F-1 alcohol-free concentrates showed a broad-spectrum, and growth inhibition was found in gram-positive, gram-negative, and ampicillin-resistant bacteria. The sequential solvent fractionation of Y-3, Y-4, Y-5 and F-1, and following analysis showed that ethyl acetate fractions of Y-3, Y-4, Y-5 and F-1 possess strong antibacterial and anti-thrombosis activity. Especially, the ethyl acetate fractions of Y-3, Y-4 and F-1 showed superior anti-thrombosis activity compared than that of aspirin. Our results suggest that the useful substances are produced from substrates and edible plant added during the fermentation, and the Korean traditional liquors could be developed as strong antibacterial and anti-thrombosis agents.

The phase change of $(U_{1-x}Nd_x)_3O_8$ powder produced by oxidation of Nd-doped $UO_2$ pellet at $500^{\circ}C$ was investigated by high temperature oxidation heat treatment at $900{\sim}1500^{\circ}C$ under an air atmosphere. The XRD analysis results showed that the formation of $(U_{1-y}Nd_y)O_{2+z}$ phase and $U_3O_8$ phase from metastable $(U,Nd)_3O_8$ phase initiated at a temperature of $1000^{\circ}C$. The relative integrated intensity of $(U_{1-y}Nd_y)O_{2+z}$ phase to $U_3O_8$ phase increased with increasing of the oxidation temperature from 1100 to $1500^{\circ}C$. And also, it was found from the SEM observation that the particle size of $(U_{1-y}Nd_y)O_{2+z}$ phase increased with increasing of the oxidation temperature. However, electrone probe X-ray microanalyzer (EPMA) analysis results showed that Nd contents in $(U_{1-y}Nd_y)O_{2+z}$ phase decreased with increasing of the oxidation temperature. This behavior on the ground of XRD, SEM, and EPMA analysis data could be interpreted in terms of the transportation of U ions from $U_3O_8$ phase into $(U_{1-y}Nd_y)O_{2+z}$ phase through the interface of two phases during high temperature oxidation.

The milling effects of a precursor $Y_2BaCuO_5$ (Y211) powder having 1 wt.% $CeO_2$ on the microstructure and critical current density ($J_c$) of liquid infiltration growth (LIG) processed $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-y}$ (Y-123) bulk superconductors were investigated. The microstructure analysis revealed that the Y211 size in the final Y-123 products decreased with increasing the milling time and a relatively high density and uniform distribution of Y211 inclusions were observed in the sample prepared using 8 h milled powder. However, the unexpected Y211 particles coarsening was observed from the 4 h milled sample which was further increased for 10 h milled sample. Critical current density ($J_c$) of the LIG processed Y-123 bulk superconductors was found to be dependent on the milling time of the Y211 precursor powder. The $J_c$ increased with the increase of milling time and reached up to a maximum at 8 h in the self field while 10 h milled sample showed lower $J_c$ at the same field which might be due to the exaggerated growth and non-uniform distribution of Y211 particles.

Yolk immunoglobulins (yIgG) from hen's egg were purified. To investigate the stability of yIgG to digestive enzymes, the changes of antigen binding activities (ABC) after in vitro proteolysis were examined by competitive ELISA. After 30 min exposure to pepsin, the ABC of yIgG was lost. However, comparing with native yIgG, the ABC of pepsin digested yIgG was decreased, but considerable amount of ABC was remained after 30 min exposure to pepsin in 50% saccharose solution. Therefore, the stability of yIgG to pepsin digestion was improved by the addition of saccharose to yIgG solution. The ABC of yIgG was considerably remained after exposure to trypsin and chymotrypsin for 8 hr. YIgG showed especially good stability to chymotrypsin proteolysis.
