It has been shown that the geometric mean A#B of positive definite Hermitian matrices A and B is the maximal element X of Hermitian matrices such that $$\(\array{A&X\\X&B}\)$$ is positive semi-definite. As an extension of this result for the 2 × 2 block matrix, we consider in this article the block matrix [[A#w_ijB]] whose (i, j) block is given by the Riemannian geodesics of positive definite Hermitian matrices A and B, where w_ij ∈ ℝ for all 1 ≤ i, j ≤ m. Under certain assumption of the Loewner order for A and B, we establish the equivalent condition for the parameter matrix ω = [w_ij] such that the block matrix [[A#w_ijB]] is positive semi-definite.

A total of 240 weaned pigs (BW 5.4 kg) were allotted in a completely randomized block design to find out the optimum lactose : sucrose ratio for the weaned pigs. Treatments were 100:0 (A), 75:25 (B), 50:50 (C), 25:75 (D) and 0:100 (E) in lactose : sucrose ratio. For the first week after weaning, average daily gain (ADG) and feed/gain (F/G) were improved (p < 0.05) for pigs fed A, B and C diets compared to pigs fed diets D and E, but the average daily feed intakes (ADFI) of the pigs were not different. From d 7 to 14, no significant differences was found in ADG and ADFI among the treatments, but pigs fed the diets A, B and C had improved F/G compared with the pigs fed diets D and E (p < 0.05). From d 15 to 21, no significant differences were found in ADG, ADFI and F/G among the treatments. The digestibility of nutrients was not influenced by the lactose : sucrose ratio except nitrogen. Nitrogen digestibility of A diet was significantly higher than D and E diets (p < 0.05) but no significant differences were found among diets A, B and C. Dry matter and phosphorus excretions were not influenced by the treatments. The pigs fed diets A, B and C excreted significantly less nitrogen than the pigs fed diets D and E. In conclusion, the results suggest that sucrose can effectively replace up to 50% lactose in starter diets.

The mutifilamentary $Nb_3$Sn wire containing 135 Nb filaments was manufactured by the internal tin method. The critical current density ($J_C$) in magnetic fields for the wires heat-treated at $660^{/circ}C$ and $700^{/circ}C$ were investigated. The Non-Cu $J_C$ and n-value of 0.82 mm$\phi$ $Nb_3$Sn wire heat-treated at $700^{/circ}C$ for 240 hours was approximately 450 A/$mm^2$ at 12T, 4.2K and 14, respectively. Also the $B_{C2}$ of $Nb_3$Sn wire extrapolated by Kramer plot was 27.2T. The wire heat-treated at $700^{/circ}C$ for 240 hours showed smaller residual tin concentration in the matrix and the larger area of $Nb_3$Sn layer as comparison with the wire heat-treated at $660^{/circ}C$.

KEPCO is planing to adopt a preventive diagnostic system to obtain the reliability of transformer and GIS in 765kV substation. KEPRI has developed the preventive diagnostic system for 765kV substation since 1997. We used various sensors and fault detecting devices such as a dissolved gas analyzer in oil, a ultrasonic detector and LA leakage current detector, etc., and carried out adaptation tests at the both a laboratory and a site. We developed a data acquisition system, a communication control unit and a server system as well. Furthermore, monitoring program and diagnostic expert system were also developed. This paper describes the preventive diagnostic system for 765kV Sin-Ga-Pyong and Sin-Tae-Baek substations which will be operated from 2004.

Recently, use of composite materials has been increasing for body structures and chassis parts in the car industry because of weight reduction effect and excellent mechanical thermal characteristics. However, application of composite materials in brake system is very difficult because it is hard to obtain enough brake performance due to low heat storage capacity of the composite materials. In this paper, we will present new carbon ceramic composite disc with high flow characteristic. To obtain this characteristic, new vent structures were designed by using ARIZ method and substance-field model analysis. The flow effect of these vent structures on the brake performance was verified by pugh matrix and cooling test. The test results show improvement of cooling performance up to $30^{\circ}C$. Finally, These results will improve brake the reliability of the brake performance for the high performance vehicles and electric vehicles.

We report refinement of crystalline boron by an attrition ball milling system and the superconducting properties of the $MgB_2$ pellets prepared from the refined boron. In this work, we have conducted the ball milling with only crystalline boron powder, in order to improve homogeneity and control the grain size of the $MgB_2$ that is formed from it. We observed that the crystalline responses in the ball-milled boron became broader and weaker when the ball-milling time was further increased. On the other hand, the $B_{2}O_{3}$ peak became stronger in the powders, resulting in an increase in the amount of MgO within the $MgB_2$ volume. The main reason for this is a greater oxygen uptake. From the perspective of the superconducting properties, however, the sample prepared from boron that was ball milled for 5 hours showed an improvement of critical current density ($J_c$), even with increased MgO phase, under an external magnetic field at 5 and 20 K.

Pulmonary edema is a disease involving the principal symptoms: dyspnea, bloody phlegm, asthma, cough, etc. According to oriental medical references, Jeomglyukdaejosapaetang (J.D.T) was efficacious for dropsy, cough, dysnea, etc, so it was thought to be used for remedy of pulmonary edema. Therefore experimental study was performed to investigate the effects of J.C.T on pulmonary edema of the rats induced by the herbicide, paraquat.Thus the survival rats, respiratory rats, lung weights and histopathological view of the lungs of rats were studied. The results are as follows. 1. The survival rates at 72hours of the rats injected with paraquat and treated with J.D.T increased in B group(J.D.T + Cortex Lycii Radicis + Cortex mori). The others were not different with the control. 2. The respiratory rates of the rats which survived 72hours later significantly decreased in B group(J.D.T + Cortex Lycii Radicis + Cortex mori). 3. The lung weights of the rats which survived for 72hours later significantly decreased in B group(J.B.T + Cortex Lycii Radicis + Cortex mori). 4. The histopathological views of the lungs of rats induced by paraquat were seen severe hemorrhage, edema and some broken alveoli in control group. But B group(J.D.T + Cortex Lycii Radicis + Cortex mori) were seen little hemorrhage and interstitial hyperplasia. According to the above results, J.D.T + Cortex Lycii Radicis + Cortex mort is effective on the remedy for pulmonary edema of rats induced by paraquat.

To produce low loss amorphous molding cores which are used as choke cores in high efficiency electronic ballast for Metal Halide Lamp, the magnetic properties of amorphous molding cores were investigated with the various fabrication methods. The results are as follows : (1) The total weight of molding core gradually increased as molding time increases. (2) The magnetic properties($B_{10}$, $B_r$, $B_t/B_s$, $H_c$, $W_c$) of molding core drastically deteriorated. This is presumably due to the compressive stress imposed on amorphous core occurred during epoxy curing treatment. (3) Two step annealing process(curing+field annealing) was more or less effective to recover the damaged properties.
