In building a shell-based FMS, which is known as one of the top-down approaches in the field of factory automation, we may take a hybrid simulation into consideration. The modeling of a hybrid simulation consists of real physical entities, virtual simulation, and central clock algorithm, etc. to carry out the whole system operation. In this paper, we sow a way to construct a hybrid simulation software system in manufacturing environments. We bring in the object-oriented methodology in system design and it can contribute in dealing with a wide variety of production types and configurations. Some classes such as project, product, process, order, schedule, stage are defined. These are used and tested by implementing a specific LSI circuit assembly line process.

The histochemical characteristics and ultrastructure of the mantle in the spiny top shell, Batillus cornutus were described using light and electron microscopy. The simple epidermal layer wrapped on the top and bottom of the centrally located connective tissue. And then the epidermal layer were divided into the outer epidermal layer near a shell and the inner epidermal layer closed to the visceral mass. The connective tissue layer was composed of the collagen fiber muscularfiber bundle and hemolymph sinus. Mucous cells in the apical mantle contained acid and neutral mucopolysaccaride, and acidic carboxylated mucopolysaccaride in the mid and marginal mantle. The mantle thickness, epidermal layer thickness and hemolymph sinus area displayed a trend of reduction from the marginal zone to the apical zone. From TEM observation, it was possible to distinguish epithelium, ciliated cell, absorptive cell and secretory cell in the epidermal layer. The epithelia were columnar and the nucleus was elliptical. The free surface were covered with microvilli. The lateral membranes of epithelium was con nected with neighboring cells by the zonular occludens, zonular adherens and membrane interdigitation. Ciliated cell on free surface had cilia and microvilli, and numerous mitochondria in the apical cytoplasm. In the epidermal layer, it observed 2 type cells having absorptive function. The absorptive cells were columnar in shape, and contained microvilli, pinocytotic vesicles, mitochondria and lysosomes of various electron density. Secretory cells can be divided into four types (A, B, C, D) depending on the cell shape and characteristics of secretory granules. These cells were unicellular glands and had similar characteristics to previously reported on the mantle of the gastropod and bivalves.

This study was conducted to prevent hardened texture in retorted frozen seafoods such as small octopus, squid, and top shell by adding sorbitol; the strength of mechanical hardness and other qualities were measured. The hardness of the 3 kinds of seafood pretreated with 2-4% (w/w) sorbitol solution decreased by 9-36% compared to the control. The hardness of retorted frozen octopus, squid, and top shell treated with sorbitol solution upon freezing significantly decreased to 1670, 1015, and $521g_f/cm^2$ compared to levels in untreated food of 1841, 1291, and $815g_f/cm^2$ (p<0.05), respectively. Yields based on weight in retorted seafood treated with sorbitol were increased by 2-5% compared to untreated samples. Additionally, the overall preference of texture was 0.4 points higher than that of control samples in descriptive sensory evaluation (p<0.05). The tissue softening of pretreated seafood was based on decreased dewatering due to the formation of small ice crystals during freezing as a result of sorbitol treatment.

This work was undertaken to obtain some characteristics of proteolytic enzyme of marine gastropods such as sea hare, Aplysia kurodai, top shell, Turbo cornutus, and abalone, Haliotis discus hannai. An influence of pH, temperature and some chemicals on proteolytic activity of the crude enzyme extracted from digestive tract of the samples was taken into account and the stability of the enzyme during the storage at low temperature was also discussed. In comparison of the activities of the crude enzyme from the samples to the optimum conditions, it was characterized that abalone has twice or the more times higher activities than the other two species of the gastropoda in the acid and weak acid region, while, in the alkaline region, sea hare has six or the more times higher acitivities than the other two species. The proteolytic activity was facilitated by $Mn^{2+}$, some reducing agents, EDTA and DTT, and inhibited by $Hg^{2+}$ and SDS, but the other chemicals were not significantly affected to the activity. The low temperature storage of the enzymes of sea hare and top shell at $0^{\circ}C\;or\;-20^{\circ}C$ was not affected to the enzymic activity under the optimum pH condition except in the alkaline region. On the other hand, the low temperature storage was brought about no significant effect on the activity of the enzymes extracted from abalone under the optimum condition of the weak acid region, but apparently influenced to the activity under the optimum condition of the acid and alkaline region.

A total of 100 swelled, springered or flippered canned meat and fish products were studied the degree of contamination with clostridias and serological relationships to Hobbs'13 "heat resistant" types, heat resistance of spores and susceptibility of Clostridium perfringens isolates to several antibiotics. Samples examined in this study were collected from Seoul area from June to October, 1975 and prepared in Korea. Clostridias were isolated from 46(46%) of these samples; 19 strains of Cl. perfringens, 9 strains of Cl. oedematiens A, B, 5 strains of Cl. sordelli, each 3 strains of Cl. chauvoei, Cl, oedematiens C.E, and Cl. difficile, 2 strains of Cl. sporogenes. The highest percentage of contamination by Cl. perfringens was found in beef products(26.5%), and the following(5.2%) in mackerel pike and none in baitop shell. whale, manna brand. and top shell. One of 19 isolates of Clostridium perfringens found in meat products was shown to produce heat resistant spores which resist $100^{\circ}C$ for 60 minutes and others were heat labile strains which is killed at $90^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes. The distribution of Hobbs' serotype of 19 isolates were each 4 strains of type 6, 8, and 11, 1 strain of type 13 and others untypable. 19 Strains of Cl. perfringens were shown a marked susceptibility to cefamezin, lincomycin and minocin and relatively sensitive to vibraimycin, geopen, and chloramphenicol. A marked resistance to kanamycin, colimycin, and gentamycin were shown. Aerobic enteropathogens from samples were not recovered.

Introduction : Head trauma is the main cause of death in aircraft crash. In a Michigan study of structurally survivable, fatal accidents, 80% of the fatally injured had received head trauma. We tried to develop a new helmet for passengers, and perform its efficiency test. Methods : An aircraft helmet requires an excellent protection against head trauma, lightness, and small volumes. In addition, it must be wearable, fire resistant, and non toxic when it is burning. We developed two new helmets made from silicone foam which met all theses requirements. One was thin (2.5cm), and the other was thick (6.3cm). These looked like a motorcycle helmet and had only a soft silicone as liner material without an outer hard shell. Therefore we can carry them easily inside aircrafts. The standard test for helmet is Snell's drop test. It measures the impact acceleration of head shaped metal wearing helmet during we drop it at certain heights. Impact sites were total 5 sites (front, back, right, left and top) for each helmet. All these sites were impacted twice. Results : The thickness of impact sites varied from 2.5cm to 6.3cm. The impact acceleration of 2.5cm thickness site when it was dropped from 1.0 meter was 379g. But, that of 6.3cm thickness site when it was dropped from 1.5 meter was only 163g. Unfortunately, both helmets didn't meet the Snell Standard for motorcycle helmets. Discussion : If we add suitable outer hard shell, and change its thickness and design, the efficiency will be increased. A study indicated that helmet could reduce the risk of head trauma up to 85%. We made helmet for passengers in aircraft crash for the first time. If we improve its weak points, it will decrease the frequency of head trauma in aircraft craft.

In this study, the strain energy density, stress and deformation behaviors have been analyzed as functions of a thickness and a force area of protective helmets with and without an extruder on the top of the shell structure using the finite element method. The strain energy density in which is related to the absorption capacity of an impact energy transfer is one of a key element of the helmet safety. The FEM analyzed results show that when the impulsive force of 4,540N is applied on the top surface of the helmets, the maximum stress is linearly reduced for an increased area of impact forces. But, the maximum strain energy density has been reduced for the increased force area. The reduced strain energy density may increase the impulsive forces transferred to the head and neck of helmet wearers, which may decrease the impact energy absorption safety of the helmets. In thus, it is safer design of the helmet in which has an extruded structure on the summit surface, but the modified helmet may decrease the impact energy absorption capacity.

Fabrication and electrical and mechanical properties of piezoelectric micro bending actuators (PMBA) using sol-gel-multi-coated thick PZT films and MEMS processes were investigated. PMBA could be used for design and fabrication of micro fluidic devices, for example, micro-pumps, micro dispensers, and so on. PMBA were fabricated using 2 um thick PZT films on Pt (350 nm)/$SiO_2$ (500 nm)/Si ($300\mu\textrm{m}$) substrates and MEMS processes. 7 types of PMBA were fabricated with areas of silicon diaphragms, PZT films and top electrodes. When the sizes of silicon diaphragms, PZT films and Pt top electrodes were reduced from 3000$\times$$1389\mu\textrm{m}$, 4000$\times$$1000\mu\textrm{m}$ and 4000$\times$$900\mu\textrm{m}$ down to 14%, 14% and 11 % of them, respectively, the center displacements of PMBA were decreased from 0.68 um to 0.10 um at 5 Hz and 12 Vpp. So, PMBA with large areas showed larger displacements than PMBA with small areas and experimental results were also good agreement with the plate and shell theory.

This paper presents the strength safety of stress and deformation behaviors using the finite element method as a function of the thickness of the protective helmets with and without an extruder on the top of the shell structure. The helmet that would provide head and neck protections without causing discomfort to the user when it was worn for long periods of time should be manufactured for increasing the safety and impact energy absorption. The stress analyzed results show that when the impulsive force of 4,540N is applied on the top surface of a helmet, the safe thickness is 3.7mm for the conventional helmet and 3.2mm for the modified new helmet. Based on the deformation analysis, the FEM results recommend that the safe thickness is 3.2mm for the conventional helmet and 2.0mm for the modified new helmet. Thus, it may be more safe design of the helmet, which has an extruded structure on the summit surface of the helmet.
