  • To evaluate transport-induced cladding embrittlement after interim-dry storage, ring compression tests were carried out at room temperature(RT) and 135 ℃. The ring compression test specimens were prepared by simulating the interim-dry storage conditions that include four peak cladding temperatures of 250, 300, 350 and 400 ℃, two tensile hoop stresses of 80 and 100 MPa, two hydrogen contents of 250 and 500 wt.ppm-H and a cooling rate of 0.3 ℃/min. Radial hydride fractions of the ring specimens vary depending on those interim-dry storage conditions. The RT compression tests generated lower offset strains than the 135 ℃ ones. In addition, the RT and 135 ℃ compression tests indicate that a higher peak cladding temperature, a higher tensile hoop stress and the lower hydrogen content generated a lower offset strain. Based on the embrittlement criterion of 2.0% offset strain, an allowable peak temperature during the interim-dry storage may be proposed to be less than 350 ℃ under the tensile hoop stress of 80 MPa at the terminal cool-down temperature of 135 ℃.

  • This study investigates effect of uncertainty in natural vibration period on the seismic demand. It is shown that since this uncertainty affects the acceleration and displacement responses differently, two ratios, one relating peak acceleration responses and the other relating the peak displacement responses, are not equal and both must be employed in evaluating and defining the critical seismic demand. The evaluation of the ratios is carried out using more than 200 strong ground motion records. The results suggest that the uncertainty in the natural vibration period impacts significantly the statistics of the ratios relating the peak responses. By using the statistics of the ratios, a procedure and sets of empirical equations are developed for estimating the probability consistent seismic demand for both linear and nonlinear systems.

  • The dependence of sulfur redox behavior and its diffusivity on temperature and composition was studied in mixed alkali silicate melts by means of square wave voltammetry (SWV) at different frequencies in a temperature range of $1000^{\circ}C$ to $1400^{\circ}C$. The voltammograms showed two reduction peaks at high frequency but only one peak at low frequency. Irrespective of $K_2O/(Na_2O+K_2O)$, each peak potential due to reduction of $S^{6+}$ to $S^{4+}$ and $S^{4+}$ to $S^0$ moved toward a negative direction with temperature decrease, and the peak current showed a strong dependence on frequency at a constant temperature. However, the compositional dependence of the peak potential showed an inconsistent behavior with an increase of $K_2O$. The mixed alkali effect was not observed in sulfur diffusion. This inconsistency of both peak potential and diffusion for compositional dependence may be derived from the strong volatilization of sulfur in melts.

  • PURPOSE: This study examined the ability of experimental socks combined with a functional insole to reduce plantar foot pressure in healthy subjects. METHODS: The study enrolled 15 subjects. An in-shoe measurement device was used to measure the peak plantar pressure while walking. The peak forefoot, midfoot, and hindfoot plantar pressure data were collected under two conditions: the subjects were wearing their own socks and while they were wearing the experimental socks. The paired t-test was used to determine the differences in peak plantar pressure between the two conditions at all three positions. RESULTS: Wearing the experimental socks resulted in a significantly higher peak plantar pressure in the medial forefoot and midfoot areas than wearing one's own socks (p<.05), and also in significantly lower peak plantar pressure in the medial and lateral hindfoot (p<.05). However, there were no significant differences of peak plantar pressure between experimental and own socks in middle and lateral forefoot (p>.05). CONCLUSION: The experimental socks combined with a functional insole decreased plantar pressure in the hindfoot and supported the medial longitudinal arch. However, it is necessary to change the design and material of the forefoot area in the functional insole to prevent foot ulcer at that location in people with diabetes mellitus.

  • The annealing of natural beryl powder used for the thermoluminescent dosimetry was investigated in order to eliminate effect of previous exposure. Through the glow curve analysis, the optimal annealing treatment was found to be one hour annealing at 145$0^{\circ}C$, but annealing for one hour at 55$0^{\circ}C$ was sufficient for reuse of natural beryl powder. There are two distinguished glow peaks at $65^{\circ}C$ and 20$0^{\circ}C$ of heating temperature during readout process. The $65^{\circ}C$ glow peak fades away rapidly, but the 20$0^{\circ}C$ glow peak remains very stable. It is, therefore, quite feasible to use the 20$0^{\circ}C$ glow peak for thermoluminescent dosimetry.

  • To evaluate the effects of sucrose-fatty acid ester (SE) on bread-making characteristics, the dough mixing, gelatinization, baking properties with the addition of SE alone and together with other surfactants were investigated. SE increased the peak time and the peak height in mixogram, indicating that it contributed the elasticity of dough. In farinogram, SE increased the peak time and mechanical tolerance index, but reduced the dough stability. SE increased the peak viscosity and reduced the gelatinization temperature and maximum consistency temperature in amylogram. SE increased the specific volume of bread loaf and retarded the increase in hardness of bread during storage, showing its anti-staling effects. The maximum anti-staling effect of SE was observed at 0.5% level. The addition of SE (0.2%), SSL (0.15%) and ES-95 (0.15%) blend showed the maximum specific loaf volume, and that of SE (0.25%) and SSL (0.25%) did the maximum anti-staling effect.

  • AES was used to study oxygen adsorption due to the oxygen exposure at 300\ulcorner temperature and segregation of impurities due to annealing on polycrystal copper surface. The intensity of peak of CuM2, 3VV and CuL3 VV increased with annealing time and the peak of CKLL increased after Ar ion bombardment. The effect of oxygen adsorption on copper surface at 300\ulcorner was verified by the decreased of peak of CuM2, 3VV and CuL3 VV as oxygen exposure increase. The binding energy of copper atoms gradualy shifts from 0.7eV to 1.5eV of copper atoms gradually shifts from 0.7eV to 1.5eV after a oxygen exposure. After the oxygen exposure, the width at half the height of CuM2, 3VV is larger 2V*C/S by the effect of chemical liaison of the copper aton with oxygen atom.

  • Herein, a new electrochemical method was described for the determination of ciprofloxacin based on the enhancement effect of an anionic surfactant: sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS). In pH 4.0 phosphate buffer and in the presence of 1.0 × 10-4 mol/L SDBS, ciprofloxacin yields a well-defined and sensitive oxidation peak at the carbon paste electrode (CPE). Compared with that in the absence of SDBS, the oxidation peak current of ciprofloxacin remarkably increases in the presence of SDBS. The experimental parameters, such as supporting electrolyte, concentration of SDBS, and accumulation time, were optimized for ciprofloxacin determination. The oxidation peak current is proportional to the concentration of ciprofloxacin over the range from 8.0 × 10-8 to 5.0 × 10-6 mol L-1. The detection limit is 2.0 × 10-8 mol L-1 after 2 min of accumulation. This new voltammetric method was successfully used to detect ciprofloxacin in drugs.
