The main purpose of this study was to investigate the formation mechanisms of imperfections such as irregular humps, outer cavity and inner cavity in the laser fusion zone of diamond saw blade. Laser beam welding was conducted to join two parts of blade; mild steel shank and Fe-Co-Ni sintered tip. The variables were beam power and travel speed. The microstructure and elements distributions of specimens were analyzed with SEM, AES, EPMA and so on. It was found that these imperfections were responded to heat input. Irregular humps were reduced in 10.4∼l7.6kJ/m heat input range. However there were no clear evidences, which could explain the relations between humps formation and heat input. The number of outer cavity and inner cavity decreased as heat input was increased. Considering both possible defects formations mechanisms, it could be thought that outer cavity was caused by insufficient refill of keyhole, which was from rapid solidification of molten metal and fast molten metal flow to the rear keyhole wall at low heat input. More inner cavities were found near the interface of the fusion zone and sintered segment and in the bottom of the fusion zone. Inner cavity was mainly formed in the upper fusion zone at high heat input whereas was in the bottom at low heat input. Inner cavity was from trapping of coarsened preexist pores in the sintered tip and metal vapor due to rapid solidification of molten metal before the bubbles escaped.

A new genus with a new species of poecilostomatoid copepod, Polyankylis orientalis, is described based on a pair of specimens collected from a tide pool on muddy shore in Korea. It represents a new family of the lichomolgoid complex with the following distinguishing characters: (1) 6-segmented antennule (resulted from the fusion of the third and fourth segments) with additional aesthetascs in male, (2) hook on mediodistal corner of antennal coxobasis (first segment), (3) proximal and distal scales on the outer margin of mandible present, (4) main axis of mandibular gnathobase short and lacking notches at the base of mandibular lash, and (5) inner margin of mandibular lash with denticulate processes. Additionally, maxillar syncoxa carries a large, pointed process on ventral surface, legs 1-4 do not show sexua1 dimorphism, and leg 4 is uniramous with 1-segmented exopod. A detailed discussion is given of its affinities with the ten existing families of the lichomolgoid complex.

We studied iron release from ferritin by irradiating the visible light, and then followed ferritin-mediated lipid peroxidation in the rod outer segment (ROS) fraction of the porcine retina. In the presence of several phosphorus compounds such as ADP and ATP, iron release from ferritin at pH 7.0 could be induced by irradiation of the visible light to the reaction mixtures. Furthermore, iron release from ferritin in the presence of ADP depended on the incubation time and the visible light irradiation. Moreover, we investigated lipid peroxidation level in the ROS fraction by two independent assay systems including the thiobarbituric acid (TBA) and ferrous oxidation/xylenol orange (FOX) methods. The visible light induced ferritin-mediated lipid peroxidation in the ROS fraction in time- and irradiance-dependent manners. In the dark condition, iron release and lipid peroxidation were not observed. Iron release from ferritin by irradiating the visible light may play an important role in the etiology of phototoxic injuries in vivo.

Canthocamptus morimotoi Miura, a cave-dwelling harpacticoid species belonging to C. mirabilis species group, is fully redescribed and illustrated on the basis of the material newly collected from the type locality, Simpigul Cave, South Korea. C. morimotoi is the only genuine subterranean species in the C, mirabilis group, and claimed to be a relict species restricted to its type locality. The sexually isomorphic ornamentation of the outer terminal seta on the distal exopodal segment of male leg 4 and the well-developed spines on the disteromedial corner of anal somite are the most significant features differentiating this species from ther members of the mirabilis-group.

A method for the detecting defined vertices is described in this paper. An alogrithm detecting vertex position by means of calculating an error and distinguishing the defined inner and outer corners by the chain code of line segments is described. To calculate the error, virtual links are detected by means of a jointing relations of line segments for a contour. And so an error is calculated by measuring a minimum distance from a jointing point between the line segments to virtual link. As a result, this method is more flexible and effective than conventional Freeman's method.

The treatment of aortic aneurysm of ascending aorta has been fraught with difficult surgical problems. For the most part, these were resolved in 1968 with the introduction of a technique of total replacement of ascending aorta and reimplantation of the coronary arteries by Bentall and De Bono. This technique however, with all of its advantages, caries a certain problems. In chronic dissecting aneurysms, there is frequently a marked disparity in circumference between the true and false lumen distally. Distal perfusion is directed into both the true and false lumens by removing segment of the septum between the two lumens and constructing the distal graft anastomosis is to the outer layer of aortic adventitia. The distal false lumen, aortic branches and fenestrations have matured and healed in most cases. And importantly, major aortic tributaries may be solely dependent on the false lumen for perfusion. We are presenting two cases of chronic dissecting aneurysm of ascending aorta with aortic regurgitation, who have good result by surgical correction of so-called Bentall procedure with maintenance of blood flow directed into both true and false lumen.

A small cyclopoid copepod M. subtilis (Giesbrecht, 1893 ["1892"]) belonging to the genus Monothula $B{\ddot{o}}ttger-Schnack$ and Huys, 2001 was collected by using $60{\mu}m$ mesh net and firstly recorded in the epipelagic layer of the equatorial Pacific Ocean. We redescribed its morphological characteristics for both female and male, comparing with those of previous studies. Specimens of M. subtilis from the equatorial Pacific Ocean differ from those previously reported by others in terms of the length of the seta G on antenna, being much shorter than setae E and F; in the distal spine on the swimming leg 4, being longer than the length of the third segment on P4. The outer spine of the P3 enp-3 in male is slightly over the tip of conical process. The spine lengths of the distal endopods of P2-P4 for both sexes showed variations among individuals, and the proportions of spine lengths in female are higher than those in male.

A new species belonging to the genus Cyclopinoides Lindberg, 1953 (Cyclopinidae) is described from three beaches in Korea and Japan, as the first record of the genus from the Pacific. Among five species currently recognized in the genus, the new species resembles C. schulzi Herbst, 1964 from the Red Sea in sharing the character combination of 20-segmented antennule and stumpy caudal rami. However, C. orientalis n. sp. differs from it by relatively longer caudal rami (2.5-2.8 times as long as wide in female and about 1.6-1.8 times in male, while less than 2 times in female and about 1.3 times in male of C. schulzi), and by the transformation of an outer distal spine to a slender seta on the distal exopodal segment of leg 4. Moreover, C. orientalis n. sp. is discernible from C. schulzi in having a pyriform copulatory tube (against elongated tubular style in C. schulzi). A key to the species hitherto known in the genus is provided.

A newly recorded species, Aora pseudotypica Hirayama, 1984, belonging to the family Aoridae Stebbing, 1899 was collected from Geomundo and Jejudo Islands in South Korea. This species is characterized by having large triangular process on basis of male gnathopod 1. It is morphologically similar to A. typica Krøyer, 1845, but distinguishable by the lack of a large rounded process on the anterior margins of basis and ischium on male gnathopod 1 and having small distal segment on outer ramus of uropod 3. To date, only two genera, Aoroides Walker, 1898 and Grandidierella Coutière, 1904, of the family Aoridae have been recorded in Korea, so this is the first record of the genus Aora from Korea.

In this study, a scheme of ramp metering that uses Off-ramp Exit Percentage instead of the O/D table required for systems of integrated control of ramps at the target freeway segment is presented. The segment from Gyeyang IC to Jangsu IC on the Seoul Outer Ring Expressway was selected for the study because the segment frequently shows large volume of traffic on the short distance between the two ICs requiring an integrated on-ramp control by taking the traffic situation on an entire expressway into account despite an unavailability of O/D data. Thus the information of Off-ramp Exit Percentage at each IC were collected instead of securing the O/D table through actual survey, and the congestion on the segment was analyzed to identify the validity of the use of off-ramp traffic instead of O/D data. In addition, the scheme of ramp metering that exploits the off-ramp traffic information was prepared through simulations conducted in a way supporting the traffic control for respective access roads thereof by taking traffic situations and queues on each ramp into account. The results obtained from the simulation analyses revealed an improved level of travel speed and traffic volume on the main line and validated the use of off-ramp traffic instead of the O/D table for the ramp metering.
