The synthesis of dimethyl carbonate (DMC) with Cu catalysts was investigated in a semi-batch high-pressure reactor. DMC was synthesized via the direct oxidative carbonylation of carbon monoxide with oxygen in methanol. The corrosion rate was evaluated fie the weight change for SUS test pieces which had been added into the reactor. In order to reduce the corrosion rate without significantly losing DMC yield, various additives such as amines, olefins, and other metal salts were used. When 1-methylimidazole was used as an additive, 18.6% of DMC yield could be obtained without corrosion. If the amount of 1-methylimidazole was decreased, a high DMC yield (33.2%) could be obtained with a low corrosion rate (0.5%).

The effects of electrolyte additives, lithium bis(oxalate)borate (LiBOB), fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC), vinylene carbonate (VC), 2-(triphenylphosphoranylidene) succinic anhydride (TPSA), on high-temperature storage properties of $Li(Ni_{1/3}Co_{1/3}Mn_{1/3})O_2$/graphite are investigated with coin-type full cells. The 1 wt.% LiBOB-containing electrolyte showed the highest capacity retention after high temperature ($60^{\circ}C$) storage for 20 days, 86.7%, which is about 5% higher than the reference electrolyte, 1.15M lithium hexafluorophosphate ($LiPF_6$) in ethylene carbonate/ethyl methyl carbonate (EC/EMC, 3/7 by volume). This enhancement is closely related to the formation of semi-carbonate compounds originated from $BOB^-$ anions, thereby resulting in lower SEI thickness and interfacial resistance after storage. In addition, the 1 wt.% LiBOB-containing electrolyte also exhibited better cycle performance at 25 and $60^{\circ}C$ than the reference electrolyte, which indicates that LiBOB is an effective additive for high-temperature performance of $Li(Ni_{1/3}Co_{1/3}Mn_{1/3})O_2$/graphite chemistry.

In this study, free vibration analysis of functionally graded (FG) porous truncated conical shell panels reinforced by graphene platelets (GPLs) has been investigated for the first time. Additionally, the effect of three different types of porosity distribution and five different types of GPLs patterns on dynamic response of the shell are also studied. Halpin-Tsai micromechanical model and Voigt's rule are used to determine Young modulus, shear modulus and Poisson's ratio with mass densities of the shell, respectively. The main novelties of present study are: applying 3D elasticity theory and the finite element method in conjunction with Rayleigh-Ritz method to give more accurate results unlike other simplified shell theories, and also presenting a general 3D solution in cylindrical coordinate system that can be used for analyses of different structures such as circular, annular and annular sector plates, cylindrical shells and panels, and conical shells and panels. A convergence study is performed to justify the correctness of the obtained solution and numerical results. The impact of porosity and GPLs patterns, the volume of voids, the weight fraction of graphene nanofillers, semi vertex and span angles of the cone, and various boundary conditions on natural frequencies of the functionally graded panel have been comprehensively studied and discussed. The results show that the most important parameter on dynamic response of FG porous truncated conical panel is the weight fraction of nanofiller and adding 1% weight fraction of nanofiller could increase 57% approximately the amounts of natural frequencies of the shell. Moreover, the porosity distribution has great effect on the value of natural frequency of structure rather than the porosity coefficient.

The purpose of this paper was to confirm the operational level of the military department of universities, which plays a key role in the officer training process, through empirical research and confirm meaningful results for improvement. There are 11 university military departments operated through the Army, agreements, and semi-agreement, and the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) was applied from the perspective of resource input and performance for each university's military department operation to analyze relative efficiency and confirm specific directions for improvement. As a result of operational efficiency analysis, 6 DMUs (Decsision Making Unit) were found to be efficient in the BCC model out of 11 DMUs, and the evaluation results could be confirmed through classification of efficient and inefficient groups through data capture analysis. This paper may be of practical value in that it checks the efficiency of the comparative university military departments and confirms specific information for development through the DEA-Additive model that reflects several evaluation factors at once. Through this, the operators of each university's military department are admitted.

The use of electrical discharge machining (EDM) for micro-machining applications requires particular attention to the machined surface roughness and discharge gap distance, as these factors affect the geometrical accuracy of micro-parts. Previous studies of conventional EDM have shown that selected types of semi-conductive and non-conductive powder suspended in the dielectric reduced the surface roughness while ensuring a limited increase in the gap distance. Based on this, an extension of the technique to micro-EDM was studied Such work is necessary since the introduction of nanopowders suspended in the dielectric is not well understood. The experimental results showed that a statistically significant reduction in the surface roughness value was achieved at particular concentrations of the powder additives, depending on the powder material and the machining input energy setting. The average reduction in surface roughness using a powder suspended dielectric was between 14-24% of the average surface roughness generated using a pure dielectric. Furthermore, when these additive concentrations were used for machining, no adverse increase in the gap distance was observed.

A liquid chromatographic method for the enantiomer separation of fluoxetine was performed using covalently bonded and coated type polysaccharide-derived chiral stationary phases (CSPs). The degree of enantioseparation is affected by the used CSPs and mobile phases. The performance of Chiralpak IC was superior to the other CSPs used in this study. Out of various solvent composition and additives, the greatest separation and resolution was observed using Chiralpak IC with mobile phase of 2-propanol in hexane with diethylamine as an additive. Semi-preparative separation of fluoxetine was performed on the analytical Chiralpak IC column to obtain (R)- and (S)-fluoxetine enantiomer with high chemical and optical purity. From the overall study, the developed liquid chromatographic method on polysaccharide-derived CSPs is expected to be very useful for the enantiomer separation of fluoxetine.

In order to simulate surface discharged heat dispersion in costal area, a 2-dimensional Eulerian-Lagrangian model for far field and semi-active particle tracking random walk model in near field has been combined. The mass of discharged heat water in near field has treated as particles with buoyancy and this is eventually converted to horizontal additive dispersion in random walk equations. This model is applied to both a simplified coastal geometry and a real site. In simple application it can simulate plume-like characteristics around discharging point than a near field-model, CORMIX/3. Actual application in the Chonsu Bay shows farther spreading of heat water in near field comparing the observed data, and this shows that the developed model might be applied with satisfaction.

According to the rising of national economic level. domestic consumption of vegetables having high additive values is increased continuously due to increased consumption of meat in last decade. These vegetables are produced almost in this country and are limited to import from neighbor countries in due of high transportation expenses for storing in refrigerated container. It is very important to mechanize the harvest work, forming more than 30% for their production cost, in order to cultivate variable vegetables at the same time according to their harvesting seasons. In this state its former harvest methods, with using of human power or semi-automatic harvest, caused to increase their production cost due to high labor cost and low working efficiency. The former onion harvest being operated almost by semi-automatic plant distributer mechanism have many limit and troublesome for cultivation spaces, vinyle mulched ridge, gravel mixture in soil. Therefore, it is necessary to develope a fully automatic and self-running situation and overcome above handicaps, even in the farm covered with vinyle house or mulch sheets. This newly developed onion harvest can be applied to plant various young trees and will be able to export together with onion haying their competition in the worldwide market in which the culinary vegetable method or farm conditions is similar to our country.

This is a study on the effects of cristobalite transition of quartz in semi-vitrious whiteware body, as addition of alkali and alkali earth oxides, prepared by pottery stone, feldspar, kaolin and clay minerals. The amounts of ${\alpha}$-quartz to ${\alpha}$-cristobalite transition, F.O.C. (fraction of cristobalite), were increased with firing temperature. In MgO added body, ${\alpha}$-quartz was decreased and the formation of cristobalite was increased. Effects of K2O addition was remarkably decreased the formation of cristobalite. Additive effects of MgO and K2O were confirmed that it was very different to variation of transition temperature of metakaolinite to Si-Al spinel structure in thermal reaction of kaolinite minerals. Result CaO addition was ineffective to transition temperature, and the transition temperature in Na2O added body was decreased, but relative intensity of quartz and cristobalite crystal in XRD results was decreased. This was characterized by the effects on the formation of liquid phase much more.
