Nonlinear analysis of RC containment structure under thermal load and pressure is presented to trace the behaviour after an assumed LOCA. The temperature distribution varying with time through the wall thickness is determined by transient finite element analysis with the two time level scheme in time domain. The layered shell finite elements are used to represent the containment structures in nuclear power plants. Both geometric and material nonlinearities are taken into account in the finite element formulation. The constitutive relation of concrete is modeled according to Drucker-Prager yield criteria in compression. Tension stiffening model is used to represent the tensile behaviour of concrete including bond effect. The reinforcing bars are modeled by smeared layer at the location of reinforcements accounting elasto-plastic axial behaviors. The steel liner model under Von Mises yield criteria is adopted to represent elastic-perfect plastic behaviour. Geometric nonlinearity is formulated to consider the large displacement effect. Thermal stress components are determined by the initial strain concept during each time step. The temperature differential between any two consecutive time steps is considered as a load incremental. The numerical results from this study reveal that nonlinear temperature gradient based on transient thermal analysis will produces excessive large displacement. Nonlinear behavior of containment structures up to ultimate stage can be traced reallistically. The present study allows more realistic analysis of concrete containment structures in nuclear power plants.

The physical properties of DME(Dimethyl Ether) are very similar to LPG and well-mixed. As cetane number of DME is similar to diesel fuel that can replace diesel fuel and alternative energy. DME is a clean energy source that can be manufactured from various raw materials such as natural gas, CBM(Coal Bed Methane) and biomass. DME has no carbon-carbon bond in its molecular structure and its combustion essentially generates no soot as well as no SOx. The development of DME process in KOGAS have 4 section. First, syngas section can be manufactured various syngas ratio. This completes the tri-reforming process for the synthesis gas ratio of approximately 4.0 to 1.0 range can be adjusted. Second, $CO_2$ is removed from the $CO_2$ removal section of about 92~99%, so the maximum concentration of $CO_2$ entering the DME synthesis reactor should not exceed 8%. Third, in the DME synthesis section, if the temperature of DME reactor increases, the activity of DME catalyst increased. but for the long-term activity is desirable to maintain the proper temperature. Finally, the purity of DME in the DME purification section is over 99.6%.

This study was conducted to define metabolite of the resveratrol by gas chromatography- time-offlight mass spectrometric detection. From these results, we suppose that the structure of metabolite is the result of reduction of double-bond attached by two-phenyl groups. Also, validity of method for determining metabolite of resveratrol and endogenous steroids was tested. The recoveries ranged from 96.47 to 114.74%, and intraand inter-day precision ranged 11.40 - 10.87% and 1.10 - 10.93%, accuracy ranged 80.03 - 119.92% and 80.02 - 119.56%, respectively. Resveratrol and endogenous steroids had correlation coefficients above or equal to 0.996. The method was successfully validated for the determination of resveratrol and endogenous steroids. Urinary samples from volunteers dosed resveratrol were analyzed to confirm a correlation resveratrol and its metabolite. From these results, the highest level of resveratrol and its metabolite was excreted in 10 - 15 hr more slowly than common drug, and conversion rate of metabolite was higher in woman than that in man. In addition, endogenous steroids were shown same the highest level of 10 - 15 hr. For estrone and estradiol, sensitivity was relatively higher in female than in man. And there were no significant changes of excretion patterns in the other endogenous steroids. Thus, we assumed that activation of resveratrol has impact on woman than man.

These days, the majority of public service area presents increment of utilizing a contracting-out with the following reasons such as cost-efficiency, maintenance of population changes in flexible manner, and convenience of management. The social changes have influence on policing structure and regional security system as well as problems associated with accepting the contracting-out in the public policing sector. However, many issues such as limited contracting-out sector, difficulty of encouragement of participation to private sector, and limitation of making a contract with contracting-out would be brought up when initiate contracting-out to the public policing sector. Changing security system to lower budget, planning restructure of organization, developing alterable partial contracting-out, establishing private and public cooperate system and rationalizing contract system are the suggestions to solve and modify the raising problems. This study suggests a differentiate regulation of policing services compare to currently existing contracting-out method to consider a distinctive working environment. The suggestions are as follows: 1. develop a security segregate model, 2. build a cooperative system between private and public policing sector, 3. broaden opportunity of participation of private policing sector, 4. open-competition among qualified private tender to make a contract. The private contracting-out in the public security service sector should be manage in different manner compare to other private contracting-out in government-oriented public service sector. Since work performance of each private contracting-out agency is strongly bond to safety of every civilian in the nation, it is essential to increase its standard of qualification of each agency.

Korea's pet-related society has been fast growing without the base and preparations of socio-cultural animal welfare. For the most part, Korea's current public parks, in particular, have a space structure in which a lot of friction between the general public who are not fond of dogs and dog owners in public places has been happening unavoidably. A lot of countries that are taking a lead role in animal welfare have built dog parte that the general public and dogs can enjoy together. This research starts with the realization that the concept of 'dog park' needs to be introduced in Korea as more and more Koreans own dogs and other pets. This research aims to provide guidance for dog park planning by drawing a dog park planning model and to promote basics for co-existence of dogs and people in a park and set in place animal welfare early and raise the level of awareness. Total 7 types of dog put 56 planning items including dog zone, dog playground, and agility, and a selective matrix by which it is possible to select essential recommendatory optional items by each type of dog park were drawn in this research. Overall there were the highest needs in separated area for dogs in park. A dog park planning model is designed as follows. 1) To select a dog park type that was introduced. 2) To set up facilities applicable in common and planning items desired in advance by each type. 3) To zone dog park areas by the priority order of planning items that were introduced and to position necessary facilities. 4) To plan program that should be were introduced. A dog park was expected to take some positive roles such as providing opportunities to socialize dogs, activating social communities, more effective park management by participating local community members and so on.

Thermal decomposition was conducted to investigate the influence of the various factors on stability of a new insecticide, [O, O-Diethyl O-(1-phenyl-3-trifluoromethyl-5-pyrazoyl) thiophosphoric acid ester : KH-502], in view of those informations applicable for industrial exploitation. In the thermal decomposition experiment, KH-502 was, after mixing with Fe, Cu and adjustment of moisture and pH conditions, subjected to three temperatures, 25, 50, and $100^{\circ}C$. Results for stability, and degradation pattern of KH-502 from the above experiment can be summarized as follows: 1. Main products of the thermal decomposition when this was conducted in the closed system were identified as following five compounds:O, O, O-Triethylthiophosphoric acid(TEPA), 1-Phenyl-3-trifluoromethyl-5-ethoxypyrazole(PTMEP), 1-Phenyl-2-ethyl-3-trifluoromethyl-5-hydroxypyrazole(PETMHP), O, O-Diethyl O-(1-phenyl-3-trifluoromethyl-5-pyrazoyl)phosphoric acid ester(KH-502 oxo form), O, S-Diethyl O-(1-phenyl-3-trifluoromethyl-5-pyrazoyl)phospho rothiolate(S-ethyl KH-502). However, compounds such as oxo form and S-ethyl KH-502 were not identified when the thermal decomposition was proceeded in the open system. 2. KH-502 was stable at 25 and 50$^{\circ}C$, but it was decomposed at 100$^{\circ}C$ following the first-order kinetics at the early stages of decomposition. 3. Rate constants for the thermal decomposition of KH-502 at 100$^{\circ}C$ were in the orders of Cu powder addition 0.344>Cu plate addition 0.21>moisture addition 0.05>closed system=open system=iron addition=pH 5.5 adjustment 0.04>pH 8.5 adjustment 0.027 day$^{-1}$, representing KH-502 was decomposed fast at Cu powder treatment and slow at pH 8.5 adjustment. 4. Half-life for the thermal decomposition of KH-502 at 100$^{\circ}C$ was in the orders of Cu powder addition 2.02

The purpose of this study was to investigate how to modify the physical properties of cellulose after thermal treatment. Cellulose was treated between $225^{\circ}C$ and $325^{\circ}C$ for 3 hrs under air flow, and then the thermally treated cellulose was measured to specific surface area, constitute elements, consumption ofacid and base, as well as the adsorption capacity of ethylamine vapor. The higher was the treating temperature from $225^{\circ}C$ to $325^{\circ}C$, the lower was the total yield of cellulose. Elemental analysis revealed that carbon content in thermally treated cellulose was gradually increased in proportion to temperature increment. The amount of acidic functional groups tended to increase up to $300^{\circ}C$, after then to be lowered slightly. In principle, no alkaline functional groups were found in thermally treated cellulose. In case of treatment with $325^{\circ}C$, only a few amount of alkaline functional groups were detectable. Specific surface area of thermally treated cellulose are determined to $1.9m^2/g$, which value can become higher when the treated temperature rises. The thermally treated cellulose at $275^{\circ}C$ shows the highest adsorption capacity of ethylamine at $40^{\circ}C$ for 4 hrs. Solubility of those two celluloses with WPG (Weight Percent Gain) value of 113% and 108%, respectively, was determined to almost 100%. X-ray diffractogram of thermally treated cellulose suggested that the crystalline structure of cellulose began to be destroyed at the temperature of $275^{\circ}C$. As a conclusion, changes of such a physical properties make it possible to weaken inter and/or intra hydrogen bond in crystal region of cellulose macromolecules. When thermally treated cellulose adsorbs ethylamine, it turns to be well soluble to water.
