The objective of the this study is to find a way to increase fm household income through investigating their computer applications. We utilized the 2000 Korea Agricultural Survey data and applied a Heckman Selection Model to correct a selection bias. The present study found the following results. First, determinant of income among fm households by the level of computer applications has significant statistical differences based on their choices of computer applications. Accordingly, the application of general linear regression about fm income without adjusting these choices may cause statistical fallacy. Second, it has been reported that increasing the member of household is not directly related to increasing the fm income. In case of computer-own farm household, the effect of decrease in income according to increasing in age was predicted. However, in the fm household not possessing computer, it shows negative relationship. It shows that an agricultural career of farm owner and educational attainment of all farm household members have positive relationship regardless of computer possession. The income of the farm household those main field is not agriculture is also found to be lower than that of farm household whose major earnings come from agriculture.

With the implementation of electric power industry reform, the utilities are looking for effective ways to improve the economic efficiency. One area in particular, the equipment maintenance, is being scrutinized for reducing costs while keeping a reasonable level of the reliability in the overall system. Here the conventional RCM requires the tradeoff between the upfront maintenance costs and the potential costs of losing loads. In this paper we describe the issues related to applying so-called the "Reliability-centered Maintenance" (RCM) method in managing electric power distribution equipment. The RCM method is especially useful as it explicitly incorporates the cost-tradeoff of interest, i.e. the upfront maintenance costs and the potential interruption costs, in determining which equipment to be maintained and how often. In comparison, the "Time-based Maintenance" (TBM) method, the traditional method widely used, only takes the lifetime of equipment into consideration. In this paper, the modified Markov model for maintenance is developed. First, the existing Markov model for maintenance is explained and analyzed about transformer and circuit breaker, so on. Second, developed model is introduced and described. This model has two different points compared with existing model: TVFR and nonlinear customer interruption cost (CIC). That is, normal stage at the middle of bathtub curve has not CFR but the gradual increasing failure rate and the unit cost of CIC is increasing as the interruption time is increasing. The results of case studies represent the optimal maintenance interval to maintain the equipment with minimum costs. A numerical example is presented for illustration purposes.

This study is to discuss simulation results with 51 principal chemical reactions in non-thermal plasma space under atmospheric pressure, and the ambient gas was mainly composed of oxygen and nitrogen molecules. The initial density of O and OH radicals under the ambient temperature of 300K is largely generated in comparison with other higher temperature, and the density of O radical decreased from $20{\mu}s$ according to increase the temperature. The initial density of OH radical seemed to decrease steeply at the initial stage. By increasing the initial density of $H_2O$ molecules, O radical's effect was few and the density of OH radical was largely generated about 2 times. In addition, ozone density was increased as increasing the density of O radical, but it was decreased as increasing the density of $H_2O$. In case of the temperature more than 300K, $NO_2$ tend to be removed, but NO was increased than the initial density.

In this study, we have for the first time applied increased surface area fractional precipitation in order to decrease the particle size of the anticancer agent paclitaxel from plant cell cultures. When compared with the case where no surface area increasing material was employed, the addition of ion exchange resin as a surface area increasing material resulted in a considerable decrease in the size of the paclitaxel precipitate. When ion exchange resin was used, the paclitaxel particles were four to five times smaller, having less than a 20 ${\mu}m$ radius, than those obtained in the absence of ion exchange resin. This is presumably because the growth of paclitaxel particles was impeded by the addition of ion exchange resin. The size of the paclitaxel precipitate also depended on the material used to increase the surface area, a result considered to be due to differences in the affinity between the particular ion exchange resin used and the paclitaxel particles. The yield of paclitaxel was significantly improved when ion exchange resin was used as a material to increase surface area. Paclitaxel, with a reduced particle size due to the addition of a surface area increasing material during the fractional precipitation process, is believed to be particularly useful for practical applications of the drug.

The microstructure and mechanical properties of friction stir welded OFC plates with 2mm in thickness were examined with the changing welding parameters such as welding speed, rotation speed in this study. The sounding welding conditions was acquired at the optimum welding conditions of the 41mm/min to 61mm/min of welding speed at 1250 rpm of rotation speed. The microstructure of weld zone was divided into four parts such as the base metal region (EM), thermal mechanical affected zone (TMAZ), heat affected zone (HAZ), stir zone (SZ). The grain size in the SZ and the width of weld nugget were increased with increasing welding speed. The hardness profiles of the base metal were distributed about 80HV. The HAZ is a slightly softened region of about 60~75 HV relative to the base metal. The hardness profiles of the SZ were higher than that of base metal. The tensile strength was increased with increasing welding speed. In case increasing rotation speed, tensile strength was decreased. The maximum tensile strength was about 220:MPa which was 110% of joint efficience of that of base metal at 41mm/min of welding speed, 1250rpm of rotation speed.

The TiC-Ni/Al reaction-bonding composites were prepared by the infiltration of Ni/Al melt into the TiC preforms. The microstructure the reaction composition crystalline phase and the mechanical properties of the composites were investigated. During the reaction-bonding Ni/Al mixture had a good wettability and per-meability with TiC preform and pore-free and fully dense sintered bodies were produced. In the case of the Ni/Al atomic ratio of 0.3 and 0.5 TiC raw particle shape was changed to irregular particles because of the decomposition in the liquid matrix and its phenomena was more distinguished in the Al-rich liquid matrix. With increasing more than 1 of the Ni/Al atomic ratio the sample of TiC grain shape was changed from spherical to palatelet particles. Also with increasing the atomic ratio of Ni/Al bending strength and fracture spherical to palatelet particles. Also with increasing the atomic ratio of Ni/Al bending strength and fracture toughness were increased and its maximum value was 1073 MPa and 11 MPa.m1/2 respectively.

Effect of martensite on the mechanical properties of austempered ductile cast iron was investigated after obtained the martensite by subzero treatment. Retained austenite was transformed to martensite by subzero treatment, and with decreasing subzero treatment temperature, volume fraction of martensite was increased. With increasing of the volume fraction of martensite, tensile strength was increased and elongation was decreased, ratio of increasing of strength and decreasing of elongation was higher in case of specimens with lot's of Cu contents. With increasing of the volume fraction of martensite, hardness slowly increased until only about 5% and it rapidly increased in a straight proportion when it is above 5%, while impact value was rapidly decreased until about 7% but it had a little change when it is above 7%.

Recently in the construction industry there has been an increasing use of increasing replacement of cement with blast furnace slag cement(BS), an industrial by-product, to reduce environment load and production costs, and other increasing uses of BS cement. However in the case of BS being delivered in RMC factories, only score reports submitted when the are delivered are relied upon and ways to test the quality of fineness is inadequate. Therefore this study gave many changes to various cements and BS fineness to test the variations of BS as a cement, then used the correlation between this and the density value in the Hydrometer method to test the possibility for rapid appraisal of quality fineness of BS cement. Results showed that if the one fifth graph of the density and fineness correlation were to be used, a rapid appraisal of BS cement fineness quality would be possible.

We studied effects by Re$_2$O$_3$(R=Dy, Gd, Ho) addition on the properties of Mn-Zn ferrite. The doping concentration range from 0.05 wt% to 0.25 wt%. All samples were prepared by standard fabrication of ceramics. With increasing the rare earth oxides, specific density and initial permeability increased on the whole. But, the tendencies such as upper result had the measured value on limitation and characteristics saturated or decreased properties after that. In case of excessive addition of additive beyond some level, initial permeability properties of ferrite have gone down in spite of anomalous grain. With increasing the content of additive, both the real and imaginary component of complex permeability and the magnetic loss (tan$\delta$) increased. Because the increased rate of real component had higher than imaginary component, magnetic loss increased none the less for increasing the real component related with magnetic permeability. But, the magnetic loss of ferrite doped with the rare earth oxides was lower than that of Mn-Zn ferrite at any rate. The small amount of present rare earth oxides in Mn-Zn ferrite composition led to enhancement of resistivity in bulk, and more so in the grain boundary. It was seem to be due to the formation of mutual reaction such as between iron ions and rare earth element ions.

In a recent study, the microstructures and mechanical properties of AM80-xSn magnesium alloys with semi solid casting and hot extrusion process were investigated. With increasing Sn content, the amount of ${\beta}$(Mg2Sn) phase increased, while the ${\alpha}-Mg$ dendritic size decreased. The hardness was increased by the Mg2Sn as the Sn content increased. With increasing Sn content, permanent mold cast and semi solid cast AM80 Mg alloy showed less reduction of hardness and also of extruded AM80 Mg alloy after annealing. In the case of the mechanical properties, the extruded semi solid casting AM80 Mg alloy showed higher tensile strength and yield strength with increasing Sn content compared to the extruded permanent mold cast AM80 Mg alloy at room temperature.
