Plasma nitrocarburising and plasma post oxidation were performed to improve the wear and corrosion resistance of S45C and SCM440 steel by a plasma ion nitriding system. Plasma nitrocarburizing was conducted for 3h at $570^{\circ}C$ in the nitrogen, hydrogen and methane atmosphere to produce the ${\varepsilon}-Fe_{2-3}$(N, C) phase. Plasma post oxidation was performed on the nitrocarburized samples with various oxygen/hydrogen ratio at constant temperature of $500^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour. The very thin magnetite ($Fe_3O_4$) layer $1-2{\mu}m$ in thickness on top of the $15{\sim}25{\mu}m$ ${\varepsilon}-Fe_{2-3}$(N, C) compound layer was obtained by plasma post oxidation. A salt spray test and electrochemical testing revealed that in the tested 5% NaCl solution, the corrosion characteristics of the nitrocarburized compound layer could be further improved by the application of the superficial magnetite layer. Throttle valve shafts were treated under optimum plasma processing conditions. Accelerated life time test results, using throttle body assembled with shaft treated by plasma nitrocarburising and post oxidation, showed that plasma nitrocarburizing and plasma post oxidation processes could be a viable technology in the very near future which can replace $Cr^{6+}$ plating.

The method of the reduction of the automotive induction noise can be classified by the method of passive control and the method of active control. However, the passive control method has a demerit to reduce the effect of noise reduction at low frequency (below 500Hz) range and to be limited by a space of the engine room. Whereas, the active control method can overcome the demerit of passive control method. The algorithm of active control is mostly used the LMS (Least-Mean-Square) algorithm because the LMS algorithm can easily obtain the complex transfer function in real-time. Especially, When the Filtered-X LMS (FXLMS) algorithm is applied to an ANC system. However, the convergence performance of LMS algorithm goes bad when the FXLMS algorithm is applied to an active control of the induction noise under rapidly accelerated driving conditions. Thus Normalized FXLMS algorithm was developed to improve the control performance under the rapid acceleration. The advantage of Normalized FXLMS algorithm is that the step size is no longer constant. Instead, it varies with time. But there is one additional practical difficulty that can arise when a nonstationary input is used. If the input is zero for consecutive samples, then the step size becomes unbounded. So, in order to solve this problem. the Correlation FXLMS algorithm was developed. The Correlation FXLMS algorithm is realized by using an estimate of the cross correlation between the adaptation error and the filtered input signal to control the step size. In this paper, the performance of the Correlation FXLMS Is presented in comparison with that of the other FXLMS algorithms based on computer simulations.

This study was attempted to investigate the occurrence and the partial characteristics of pectinesterase (PE) in cucumbers. And the involvement of endogenous cucumber PE with the formation of insoluble pectic acid, in the presence of endogenous or added calcium ions, was also studied. The results of this study are as follows: 1) PE activity was detected in whole cucumber homogenate. 2) The optimum pH and temperature of this enzyme were found to be 8.5 and $50^{\circ}C$, respectively 3) When PE extract was added to 0.25% pectin solution, pectin gel was formed. The time required for the formation of pectin gel was reduced when the pectin solution was adjusted to the optimum conditions for PE activity(pH 8.5, $50^{\circ}C$) and $CaCl_2$ was added. 4) Cucumber juice which was heated to $100^{\circ}C$ for 10 minutes fatted to form any insoluble pectate precipitate. The formation of precipitate in cucumber juice was accelerated by preheating to $50^{\circ}C$, adjusting to pH 8.5 and addition of $CaCl_2$. 5) These results can be interpreted that endogenous PE in cucumber juice demethylates pectin, allowing interlinking of pectin molecules via divalent cation $(Ca^{++})$ and thus forming insoluble Ca-pectate. Therefore additional firming effects of cucumber can be expected to be obtained through activation of PE in conjunction with calcium ions.

고추 가루 저장(貯藏) 시(時) 일광(日光) 노출(露出) 하(下)에서 일어나는 표면적색소(表面赤色素)의 탈색(脫色) 현상을 일사량(日射量), 고추의 건조(乾燥) 방법(方法), 고추 가루의 입도(粒度), 수분(水分) 활성도(活性度) 및 광(光) 파장(波長)등의 제반 인자(因子)들과 관련하여 연구하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 고추 가루를 일광(日光)에 노출시킬 때 고춧가루의 표면색(表面色)은 적색소(赤色素) 보지솔(保持率)(잔존(殘存) capsanthin 함양(含量)/초기(初期) capsanthin 함양(含量)이 0.5에 이를때 까지 급격히 감소되었으며 그후에는 완만한 감소 현상을 보였다. 2. 일정한 광량(光量)을 조사(照射)할 때 고추의 건조 시간이 길었던 고추 가루와 입자가 작은 것일수록 탈색 현상이 심하였다. 3. 일광 탈색 현상에 고추가루의 수분 활성도의 영향이 뚜렷하였으며 $a_w$값이 0.5이하(以下)에서는 그값이 낮을수록 탈색 반응이 촉진되었으며, $a_w$이 0.5이상에서 는 별로 큰 변화를 나타내지 않았다. 4. 광(光) 파장(波長)이 짧을수록 탈색 반응을 촉진하였다. 따라서 고춧가루의 적색소(赤色素) 보존(保存)을 위해서는 적색(赤色) 포장 필름을 사용함이 바람직하다.

The phenomenon of decrease in sizing efficiency when the stock temperature is increased is well recognized as summer sizing, and this is believed to be caused by uneven distribution of sizing agents on paper surface most often incurred by coagulation of sizing agents. When unevenly sized paper is used as coating base stock, nonuniform consolidation of the coating layer may result, which, in turn, causes uneven distribution of binder on coating surface. This causes nonuniform ink absorption to produce print mottle. In this study the effects of simple or polymeric electrolytes, storage temperature and time on the coagulation of cationic dispersed rosin size were investigated using a turbidity measurement method which was verified to correlate well with the particle size of rosin emulsion or its coagulates. Handsheets sized with rosin dispersions coagulated under various conditions were prepared and their sizing degree and coated paper properties including gloss and ink density were examined. The relationship between the sizing nonuniformity of coated papers and its ink absorption property was evaluated. Turbidity of rosin emulsion increased as the storage temperature and time were increased. Addition of simple or polymeric electrolytes caused reduction in $zeta$ -potential of the rosin dispersion and accelerated the coagulation tendency substantially. Reversion of the $zeta$ -potential of rosin dispersion, however, did not occur when coagulation was induced with simple electrolytes. On the other hand, addition of an anionic polyelectrolyte reversed the $zeta$ -potential of the flocculated rosin dispersion. This indicated that electrical double layer compaction and bridging flocculation were coagulation mechanisms for simple and polymeric electrolytes, respectively. Sizing degree decreased as coagulation of rosin was increased. Paper gloss, ink gloss and ink density were increased when sizing degree of base stock was increased most probably due to prevention of base paper swelling and increased binder migration to coating surface. This suggested that uneven printing ink density occurred when uneven sizing development was induced by coagulation of rosin particles.

Laboratory and field data showed that deep mixed (DM) columns accelerated the rate of consolidation of the soft foundations. Most analyses of consolidation of DM column-improved foundations so far have been based on the elastic theory. In reality, the DM columns may yield due to the stress concentration from the soft soil and its limited strength. The influence of column yielding on the degree of consolidation of the soft foundation improved by DM columns has not been well investigated. A three-dimensional mechanically and hydraulically-coupled numerical method was adopted in this study to investigate the degree of consolidation of the DM column foundation considering column yielding. A unit cell model was used, in which the soil was modeled as a linearly elastic material. For a comparison purpose, the DM column was modeled as an elastic or elastic-plastic material. This study examined the aspects of stress transfer, settlement, and degree of consolidation of the foundations without or with the consideration of the yielding of the DM column. A parametric study was conducted to investigate the influence of the column yielding on the stress concentration ratio, settlement, and average degree of consolidation of the DM column foundation. The stress concentration ratio increased and then decreased to reach a constant value with the increase of the column modulus and time. A simplified method was proposed to calculate the maximum stress concentration ratios under undrained and drained conditions considering the column yielding. The simplified method based on a composite foundation concept could conservatively estimate the consolidation settlement. An increase of the column modulus, area replacement ratio, and/or column permeability increased the rate of consolidation.

Following the study on the fermentation conditions influencing the production of vitamin $B_{12}$ by Propionibacterium shermanii(Korean J Biotechnol. Bioeng. 7,126-131, 1992), the effects of some factors supplemented in the medium on the production of vitamin $B_{12}$ were studied. Maximum production of vitamin $B_{12}$ was observed when $Co^{+2}$ was supplemented at the concentration of 2-4 ppm in the fermentation medium. Increase of the supplemented $Co^{+2}$ to 12 ppm did not inhibit the growth of the organism, but it accelerated the lysis of the organism. In the literature, peptone was reported to activate the biosynthesis of vitamin $B_{12}$. Examination of the effect of peptone on the growth and the production of vitamin $B_{12}$ showed that at early stage more vitamin$B_{12}$ was observed in the supplemented medium, but no difference was observed in the later stage of fermentation. Examination of the time for addition and the amount of 5,6-dimethylbenzimidazole, a precursor known to influence the production of vitamin $B_{12}$, showed that a maximum yield of vitamin $B_{12}$ was observed when 15 mg/L was added to the fermentation medium after 2 days' incubation. The effect was comparable with the increase of the production of vitamin $B_{12}$ when the fermentation condition was changed to aerobic condition after 2 days' culture under anaerobic condition.

포트홀 발생 및 관련 교통사고 건수는 매년 꾸준히 증가하는 추세이며 이에 따른 인명피해, 차량파손에 따른 비용손실 등 도로 이용자의 직 간접적인 피해를 증가시키고 있다. 일반적으로 아스팔트 혼합물은 생산과정부터 시공 후 공용에 따라 지속적으로 노화가 진행된다. 포장 노화는 균열과 수분침투로 박리를 야기하고 반복적인 윤하중에 의해 포장구조를 약화시켜 포트홀을 유발하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 노화가 아스팔트 콘크리트 포장에 미치는 영향을 검토하기 위해 노화정도에 따른 부착성능 평가와 수분민감성 평가를 수행하였다. 연구결과 노화에 따라 아스팔트 바인더의 점성이 증가해 부착강도가 2~3배 이상 증가하였다. 또한 가속 노화시킨 아스팔트 혼합물의 경우 간접인장강도의 증가뿐만 아니라 TSR 값도 4.2~8.9 % 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 이에 따라 골재에 아스팔트 바인더가 피복된 상태에서 노화가 진행될 경우 아스팔트 바인더와 골재의 부착력이 증가하여 박리 저항성이 향상되는 것으로 분석되었다.

As increasing the international community's awareness of greenhouse gas reduction, the demand for eco-friendly ship fuel has accelerated recently. The fundamental aim of this study is to develop a new type of fully electrified ferry for passengers and cars considering Korean domestic coastal environmental conditions. Several technical difficulties are encountered in applying a fully electric propulsion system based on removable battery systems into a ship due to limitations imposed by the batteries' size and capacity. This paper reviews and analyzes marine environment regulations strengthened recently, technology trends related to fully electric propulsion vessels in each country, and Korean domestic coastal environments. We propose a new fully electrified car ferry design with a displacement of 400 t applied in Korea. It is powered by removable battery systems pre-charged in a safe inland charging station. The mobile battery system is developed to enable roll-on and roll-off using wheels. The characteristics of the ship motion are analyzed based on the weight and location of the battery systems. We expect our battery systems to be applicable to larger ships in the future.

Austenitic 316 stainless steel was irradiated with protons accelerated by an energy of 2 MeV at 360 ℃, the various defects induced by this proton irradiation were characterized with microscopic equipment. In our observations irradiation defects such as dislocations and micro-voids were clearly revealed. The typical irradiation defects observed differed according to depth, indicating the evolution of irradiation defects follows the characteristics of radiation damage profiles that depend on depth. Surface oxidation tests were conducted under the simulated primary water conditions of a pressurized water reactor (PWR) to understand the role irradiation defects play in surface oxidation behavior and also to investigate the resultant irradiation assisted stress corrosion cracking (IASCC) susceptibility that occurs after exposure to PWR primary water. We found that Cr and Fe became depleted while Ni was enriched at the grain boundary beneath the surface oxidation layer both in the non-irradiated and proton-irradiated specimens. However, the degree of Cr/Fe depletion and Ni enrichment was much higher in the proton-irradiated sample than in the non-irradiated one owing to radiation-induced segregation and the irradiation defects. The microstructural and microchemical changes induced by proton irradiation all appear to significantly increase the susceptibility of austenitic 316 stainless steel to IASCC.
