This study was conducted to observe the effects of partial replacement of mungbean starch(MB) with dent(DT) or cross-linked(CL) corn starches, and of added hydrocolloids on the characteristics of mungbean starch and the mook. The replacement with CL caused less changes compared to that with DT in phase transition enthalpy of MB measured with defferential scanning calorimeter. The viscosity of MB paste cooled to $50^{\circ}C$ after heating was also affected less with CL than with DT. The addition of hydrocolloids to mixed starches of MB and CL did not affect initial viscosity increase but resulted in marked increase in viscosity at later stage of heating. Mixed monks with CL were more similar to MB monks than those with DT. Hydrocolloids added to MB-CL mixture further decreased the gap between monks with and without CL.

This study is to assess the effects of increasing wall thickness on the safety margin of pressure tube in operating and of lowering initial hydrogen concentration on the DHC growth in respect to the improvement of the reliability of pressure tube in CANDU reactors. The pressure tube with thicker wall of 5.2 mm shows much higher safety margin for flaw tolerance by 25％ than the current 4.2mmm tube. The thicker pressure tubes have a great benefit in LBB assessment including the initial crack depth at which DHC occurs, the crack length at onset of leaking and the available time for action. The resistance for the pressure tube ballooning at LOCA accident is also increased with the thicker tube. The calculations for Heq concentration after 20 years of operation as a function of wall thickness and initial hydrogen concentration show that the 5.2 mm nil thickness tube with 5 ppm initial hydrogen concentration is the most resistant to DHC. with the lower initial hydrogen concentration, TSS temperature for the precipitation or hydride decreases and the crack growth during cooldown reduces.

Titanium은 높은 강도, 낮은 밀도, 부식에 대한 저항 등, 타 금속에 비해 월등히 뛰어난 성질을 가지고 있기 때문에 산업 전반에 거쳐 그 응용이 크게 증가하고 있으며, 특히 고온에서의 응용이 중요성을 띠게 됨에 따라 고온으로의 상전이 관계에 따른 구조적 규명이 필요하다. 순수한 titanium은 상온에서 조밀충진 육방정계의 α-상구조(a=2.953Å, c=4.683 Å, P6₃/mmc)를 이루고 있으나, 대략 880℃ 이상에서는 β-상의 체심입방정계 (a=3.320Å, Im3m)로 상전이가 되는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이에 대한 대부분의 연구가 kinetics와 thermodynamics에 관련되어 있으며, TEM을 이용한 직접가열실험은 거의 전무한 상태이다. 본 실험에서는 TEM 직접가열을 통하여 titanium의 고온에서의 상전이와 가열시 발생할 수 있는 산화층 형성을 연구하였다. TEM 시편은 순도 99.94％의 titanium foil(Alfa Aesar, ＃00360, 0.025mm thick)를 이용하였고, 분석 장비로는 에너지여과 기능이 있는 TEM(EM912 Omega, Carl Zeiss)과 Gatan사의 double-tilt heating holder를 사용하였다. Titanium의 상전이를 관찰하기 위해 900℃ 까지 분당 10℃ 의 속도로 가열을 하였다. 통계적 분석 오차를 줄이기 위해 서로 다른 4군데의 관찰영역을 선택하여, 상온 - 600℃ - 900℃ - 상온의 단계별로 회절패턴을 관찰 및 기록하였고, 발생 가능한 산화에 대해서는 동일한 장비를 사용하여 EDS 분석을 하였다. 상온에서의 서로 다른 영역의 회절패턴들은 결함의 존재에 상관없이, 온도가 증가함에 따라 그 결함수가 증가하게 된다. 특히 600℃ 에서는 쌍정과 관련된 회절점들이 본래의 회절점 주위에 형성되어있지만, 각 면들의 격자상수의 변화는 나타나지 않았다. 그러나 900℃ 에서는 쌍정에 의한 회절점의 수가 증가하며, 회절점 사이에 발달한 뚜렷한 막대모양의 강도분포와 격자상수의 변화를 관찰할 수 있었다. 다시 상온으로 냉각시킨 후 관찰한 각각의 회절패턴에서는 격자 상수의 감소와 함께 900℃에 보여진 막대 모양의 강도분포와 쌍정에 의한 회절점들이 여전히 남아있었다. EDS분석 결과 가열 실험을 통해 시편이 열적 산화가 되어 있음을 확인 할 수 있었다. 순수한 titanium의 α-상에서 β-상으로의 상전이를 파악할 수 있는 격자상수의 변화자체는 매우 작은 값이기 때문에 상온과 900℃ 에서 기록된 전자회절패턴 상에서의 면간거리와 면간각도의 측정만으로는 상전이 여부를 명확히 구별할 수 없었다. 그러나, 결함에 의한 상변화가 900℃ 에서 심하게 관찰되어지는 것은 상전이와 관계가 있는 것으로 볼 수 있다. 고온에서 상온으로의 가역적 반응을 관찰할 수 없었던 이유는 열적산화로 생긴 산화층의 산소원자들이 고온의 상전이 과정 중에 Ti 원자와 반응이 일어나 TiO/sub X/ 구조로 전이되었기 때문으로 추정하고 있다.

그래핀은 높은 전자 이동도, 열전도도, 기계적 강도, 유연성 등의 고유한 특성으로 다양한 분야에 응용하기 위한 연구가 수행되고 있으며, 특히 전자 소자에의 적용에 관한 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 전자 소자에 적용하기 위해서는 성장 및 물성에 관한 규명, 응용 소자에 따른 특성 평가가 필요하다. 이러한 소자 특성은 그래핀 물성에 의한 영향이 기본적이지만 에칭, 전사 등의 공정 중 발생하는 오염, 표면 특성, 잔여물 등에 의한 물성 변화 또한 분석 및 제어에 관한 연구가 필요하다. 열화학증착법(thermal chemical vapor deposition)을 이용한 그래핀 합성은 구리 기판을 사용하며, 합성된 그래핀의 에칭, 박리 및 전사 공정이 있다. 이러한 공정 중 발생하는 오염 입자가 그래핀 표면에 흡착되거나, 제거되지 않은 PMMA 잔여물이 그래핀의 특성에 영향을 미치게 된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 $CO_2$ 클러스터의 표면 충돌을 이용하여 이러한 오염 물질 및 잔여물을 제거하고 그래핀 표면을 평탄화하는 것에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 가스 클러스터란 작동기체의 분자가 수십에서 수백 개 뭉쳐 있는 형태를 뜻하며 이렇게 형성된 클러스터는 수 nm 크기를 형성하게 된다. 그리고 짧은 시간의 응축에 의해 수십 nm 크기 까지 성장 하게 된다. 클러스터를 이용한 표면 처리는 충돌에 의한 제거에 기반 한다. 따라서 생성 및 가속되는 클러스터로부터 대상으로 전달되는 운동량의 정도가 세정 특성에 영향을 미치며 이는 생성되는 클러스터의 크기에 종속적이다. 생성 클러스터의 크기 분포는 분사거리, 유량, 분사 각도, 노즐 냉각 온도 등의 변수에 관한 함수이다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 변수들을 제어하여 클러스터를 이용한 그래핀 표면 처리 실험을 수행하였다. 평가는 클러스터 표면 처리 전과 후의 특성 비교에 기반 하였으며, 광학 현미경을 이용한 표면 형상 측정, 라만분광 분석, AFM을 이용한 표면 조도 측정, 그래핀 면저항 측정 결과를 비교하였다. 평가 결과를 통하여 표면 처리를 하지 않은 그래핀에 비하여 면저항과 표면 조도가 낮아지는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. 또한 클러스터 세정은 300 mm 웨이퍼 크기 이상의 대면적을 짧은 시간에 건식으로 세정할 수 있다는 장점이 있어 향후 최적화를 통해 그래핀 양산 시 특성 향상을 위한 후처리 방법으로 사용될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Vacuum cooling of crisphead lettuce by pilot-scale vacuum cooling apparatus, transportation under the conventional and cold-chain systems and distribution were carried out for its freshness prolongation and application of cold-chain system for fresh fruits and vegetables. Changes in temperatures of crisphead lettuce were also measured during transportation. $Q_{10}$ value for respiration rate of crisphead lettuce was $1.7{\sim}2.4$ and its initial freezing point was $-0.2^{\circ}C$. Cooling the vegetable to $0^{\circ}C$ was possible in less than 30 minutes by vacuum cooling. The shelf-life was extended by more than 90% by the combination of vacuum cooling and low temperature distribution.

The decay heat of Cs and Sr contained in a LiCl waste salt, generated from an electrolytic reduction process in pyroprocessing of spent nuclear fuel, has been calculated. The calculation has been carried out under some assumptions that most of the LiCl waste is purified and recycled to main process, and the residual is fabricated to make a waste form. As a result, the decay heat from daughter nuclides such as Ba and Y seems to be maximum 4.6 times higher than that from their parent nuclides such as Cs and Sr. The thermal release from Cs and Sr in the LiCl waste is the maximum around the first one month, so an cooling system operation for some time at the beginning would be suggested to control a rapid increase in the temperature of the LiCl waste salt.

Currently, Induction welding is attracting attention as a non-contact, clean and fast welding process. However, since thermoplastic resins are not affected by electromagnetic fields, induction welding requires a heating element called a susceptor. Researches are being conducted with the aim of achieving high-quality bonding, however, the factor of a heating element is an issue, hence the need to set a standard. Specimen fabrication and testing are conducted according to ASTM D5868. In this study, we propose that the evaluation criteria be judged on the basis of three factors; the condition of the welded joint surface, void content, and lap shear strength. Since the adhesive surface to be welded melts and solidifies as it cools, rapid temperature changes can generate pores. In addition, if the heating is not uniform, it is difficult to expect the desire performance. Using PA6 (CF 30%) thermoplastic, susceptor fabrication, induction welding and performance verification were conducted.

In response to the increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide and greenhouse gases, the global mean temperature is rising rapidly. In particular, the warming of the Arctic is two to three times faster than the rest. Associated with the rapid Arctic warming, the sea ice shows decreasing trends in all seasons. The faster Arctic warming is due to ice-albedo feedback by the presence of snow and ice in polar regions, which have higher reflectivity than the ocean, the bare land, or vegetation, higher long-wave heat loss to space than lower latitudes by lower surface temperature in the Arctic than lower latitudes, different stability of atmosphere between the Arctic and lower latitudes, where low stability leads to larger heat losses to atmosphere from surface by larger latent heat fluxes than the Arctic, where high stability, especially in winter, prohibits losing heat to atmosphere, increase in clouds and water vapor in the Arctic atmosphere that subsequently act as green house gases, and finally due to the increase in sensible heat fluxes from low latitudes to the Arctic via lower troposphere. In contrast to the rapid Arctic warming, in midlatitudes, especially in eastern Asia and eastern North America, cold air outbreaks occur more frequently and last longer in recent decades. Two pathways have been suggested to link the Arctic warming to cold air outbreaks over midlatitudes. The first is through troposphere in synoptic-scales by enhancing the Siberian high via a development of Rossby wave trains initiated from the Arctic, especially the Barents-Kara Seas. The second is via stratosphere by activating planetary waves to stratosphere and beyond, that leads to warming in the Arctic stratosphere and increase in geopotential height that subsequently weakens the polar vortex and results in cold air outbreaks in midlatitudes for several months. There exists lags between the Arctic warming and cold events in midlatitudes. Thus, understanding chain reactions from the Arctic warming to midlatitude cooling could help improve a predictability of seasonal winter weather in midlatitudes. This study reviews the results on the Arctic warming and its connection to midlatitudes and examines the trends in surface temperature and the Arctic sea ice.

The gold-silver vein deposits in the Mugeug mineralized area are emplaced in late Cretaceous biotite granite associated with the pull-apart type Cretaceous Eumseong basin. Mugeug mine in northern part is composed of multiple veins showing relatively high gold fineness and is characterized by sericitization, chloritization and epidotization. The ore-forming fluids were evolved by dilution and cooling mechanisms at relatively high temperature and salinity (=30$0^{\circ}C$,1~9 equiv. wt. % NaCl) and highly-evolved meteoric water ($\delta$$^{18}$ O;-1.2~3.7$\textperthousand$) and gold mineralization associated with sulfides tormed at temperatures between 260 and 22$0^{\circ}C$ and within sulfur fugacity range of 10$^{-11.5}$ ~ 10$^{-13.5}$ atm. In contrast, Geumwang, Geumbong and Taegueg mines show the low fineness values, in southern part are characterized by increasing tendency of simple and/or stockwork veins and by kaolinitization, silicificatitan, carbonatization and smectitization. These droposits formed at relatively low temperature and salinity (<23$0^{\circ}C$, <3 equiv. wt. % NaCl) from ore-forming fluids containing greater amounts of less-evolved meteoric waters ($\delta$$^{18}$ O;-5.5~4.0$\textperthousand$), and silver mineralization representing various gold-and/or silver-bearing minerals formed at temperatures between 200 and 15$0^{\circ}C$ and from sulfur fugacity range of 10$^{-15}$ ~10$^{-18}$ atm These results imply that mineralization in the Mugueg area formed at shallow-crustal level and categorize these deposits as low-sulfidation epithermal type. The genetic differences between the northern and southern parts reflect the evolution of the hydrothermal system due to a different physicochemical environment from heat source area (Mugeug mine) to marginal area (Taegeum mine) in a geothermal field.

Background: Several studies have demonstrated that conventional hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) causes cellular injury, abnormal responses in peripheral vascular beds and increased postoperative bleeding, whereas normothermic CPB provides protection of the hypothermic-induced effects and better cardiac recovery. The present study was prospectively performed to compare the effects of normothermic CPB to those of hypothermic CPB on the inflammatory and hematologic responses during cardiac surgery. Material and Method: Thirty-four adult patients scheduled for elective cardiac surgery were randomly assigned to hypothermic CPB (nasopharyngeal temperature $26～28^{\circ}C,$ n=17) or normothermic CPB (nasopharyngeal $temperature>35.5^{\circ}C,$ n=17) group. In both groups, cold $(4^{\circ}C)$ crystalloid cardioplegia was applied for myocardial protection. Blood samples were drawn from radial artery before (Pre-CPB), 10 minutes after starting (CPB-10) and immediately after ending (CPB-OFF) CPB. Total leukocyte and platelet counts, interleukin-6 (IL-6) level(expressed as percent to the baseline of Pre-CPB), D-dimer level, protein C and protein S activity were measured with the blood samples. The amount of bleeding for postoperative 24 hours and blood transfusion after operation were also assessed. All parameters were compared between the two groups. Result: The total leukocyte counts $(10,032\pm65/mm^3)$ and the increased ratio of IL-6 $(353\pm7.0%)$ at CPB-OFF in the normothermic group were higher than that $(7,254\pm48/mm^3$ and $298\pm7.3%)$ of the hypothermic group(p=0.02 and p=0.03). In the normothermic group, protein C activity $(32\pm3.8%)$ and protein S activity $(35\pm4.1%)$ at CPB-OFF were significantly lower than that $(45\pm4.3%$ and $51\pm3.8%)$ of the hypothermic group (p=0.04 and p=0.009). However, there were no differences in platelet counts and D-dimer concentration. In the normothermic group, the amount of bleeding for postoperative 24 hours $(850\pm23.2$ mL) and requirements for blood transfusion after operation such as packed cell $(1,402\pm20.5$ mL), fresh frozen plasma $(970\pm20.8$ mL) and platelet $(252\pm6.4$ mL) were higher than that $(530\pm21.5$ mL, $696\pm15.7$ mL, $603\pm18.2$ mL and $50\pm0.0$ mL) of the hypothermic group. Conclusion: These results indicate that normothermic CPB with cold crystalloid cardioplegia was associated with higher increase in inflammatory response, hemostatic abnormalities and postoperative bleeding problem than moderate hypothermic CPB.
