Numerical simulations are conducted to investigate the mechanism for force generation of an insect with tandem wing configuration. Various stroke amplitudes, stroke plane angles and phase difference between the fore- and hind-wings are considered. The Reynolds number is 150 based on the chord length and maximum translation velocity of the wing. When an insect requires high lift such as takeoff, it flaps its wings in parallel at a lower stroke plane angle and a bigger stroke amplitude than those in the hovering. With wings in counter-stroke, the lift fluctuations decrease, and moreover mean lift force decreases. Interactions among the fore-wing, hind-wing and vortices are examined to explain the force variations

Pseudoips fagana Fabricius belongs to the subfamily Chloephorinae (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae). Eggs of Pseudoips fagana were white and oviposited on oak leaves. There were five P. fagana larval instars, which were light green in color with four white crosslines. The larval period was approx. 24.4 days ($25^{\circ}C$, 16L:8D). Pupae were covered with a light-green membrane and silk. The wingspan of adults was approx. 15 to 18 mm. The color of the forewings of both sexes was bright green. The color of the hindwings was yellow in males and and white in females. First emergence was from early May to late June, and the second emergence was from early July to late August. Pseudoips fagana over-wintered as pupae.

A basic formulation of the panel method, which is based on the potential field formulation, is reviewed for the case of two-dimensional hydrofoil problems. Numerical procedures to improve the computational efficiency of the panel method are suggested. By investigating local behavior of the flow around the trailing edge, a wedge type Kutta condition is formulated. By subdividing the trailing edge panels, where dipole strengths of the subdivided panels follow the local behavior of the potential values of the flow outside a wedge, the circulation around a hydrofoil is calculated accurately with a relatively small number of panels. The subdividing technique to improve the accuracy of the numerical Kutta condition is proved to be efficient. A local behavior of the flow around the leading edge is also investigated. By matching the flow around the leading edge with that around a parabola, a very accurate velocity distribution is obtained with relatively small number of panels. An accurate prediction of the stagnation point and the pressure distribution near the leading edge may contribute to improve the accuracy of cavity predictions and boundary layer calculations around hydrofoils.

Turbulent wake behind a ship propeller has been investigated using the adaptive hybrid 2-frame PTV(Particle Tracking Velocimetry). 400 instantaneous velocity fields were measured according to 4 different blade phases and ensemble-averaged to investigate the spatial evolution of the vortical structure of near wake within one propeller diameter downstream. The phase averaged mean velocity fields show the potential wake and the viscous wake formed by the boundary layers developed on the blade surfaces. As the tip vortex evolves downstream, the slipstream is contracted and the turbulent intensity is decreased with viscous dissipation and turbulent diffusion.

In this study, a model of two-stage Weis-Fogh type water turbine model is proposed, the hydrodynamic characteristics of this water turbine model are calculated by the advanced vortex method. The basic conditions and the motion of each wing are the same as that of the single-stage model previously proposed by the same author. The two wings (NACA0010 airfoils) and both channel walls are approximated by source and vortex panels, and free vortices are introduced from the body surfaces. The distance between the front wing axis and the rear wing axis, and the phase difference between the motion of the two wings, which is in phase and out of phase are set as the calculation parameters. For each case, the unsteady flow fields, pressure fields, force coefficients, and efficiency of the two wings are calculated, and the hydrodynamic characteristics of the proposed water turbine model are discussed.

To know whether there is any androconia on Korean Lycaenidae, studies were carried out with Korean Lycaenid butterflies for their types and distribution pattern with the aid of scanning electron microscope. As the results, androconia was observed from 8 species; Niphanda fusca (B. et G.), Pseudozizeeria maha (K.), Zizina otis (F.), Everes argiades (P.), Celasrtina argiolus (L.), Maculinea arionides (S.), M. teleius (B.) and Lycaeides argyronomon (B.). Androconia was not found only from males, and it was observed on both dorsal and ventral surfaces of fore wings and on ventral surface of hind wings. Androconia was found to be distributed mainly on the area between the median and anal venis. General structure of androconia on Korean Lycaenids was rather simple with laminar and foot stalk. However, 2 types of androconia were observed from 2 species, Pseudozizeeria maha and Everes argiades, while only one type was observed from other 6 species. The foot stalks of androconia on Niphanda fusca under the tribe Niphandini is located on the ventral surface of laminar and hidden from dorsal view, while one end of that on all other 7 species belong to the tribe Polyommatini is attached to the lower side of laminar and shown from both side.

This study developed a method to minimize rice damages and enhance timely control by accurately classifying Whitebacked Planthopper (WBPH). The body size of the 1st-3rd instar was 1.5-2 mm, and the body size of the 4-5 instar was 2.5-3.5 mm. In the third instar, the ratio of the front wing bud and the back wing-bud was 1:1. The fourth instar occupied 3/4 of the front wing-bud, and the 5th instar showed that the front wing-bud covers the back wing-bud. It was confirmed that the 1st instar does not have a sensory plate, the 2nd instar has 2-3, the 3rd instar has 4-5, the 4th instar has 6-9, the 5th instar has 10-15, and the adult instar has 15-20 sensory plates. The female spawning organs were reddish when the spawning horn was inserted. WBPH showed that the larvae of 2-3 larvae most actively feed on rice, and the damaged area was the stem of rice near the ground. In addition, a partial black wound was observed after the feeding. WBPH-susceptible 'Chucheong' was yellowish, and early growth was slower than that of 'Cheongcheong', which was resistant; moreover, a difference between susceptibility and resistance was observed. The identification of the number of such wounds in the bioassay will be a better basis for understanding the difference in susceptibility between WBPH strains and cultivars. These results will be used as basic data for cultivating the WBPH-resistant varieties of rice.

Unsteady aerodynamic force measurements were carried out in order to investigate the effects of phase difference of a dragonfly-type model with two pairs of wing. A load-cell was employed to measure the aerodynamic force generated by a plunging motion of the dragonfly-type model. The dragonfly-type model has a dynamic similarity with real one, and incidence angles of fore- and hind-wing are 0° and 10°, respectively. Other experimental conditions are as follows: The freestream velocity was 1.6 m/sec and corresponding chord Reynolds number was 2.88×103, and phase differences of fore- and hind-wing were 0°, 90°, 180° and 270°. The variation of aerodynamic coefficients during one cycle of the wing motion is presented. Results show that the lift is generated during the downstroke motion and the drag generated during the hind-wing‘s downstroke motion with the lift generation.

Biological Characteristics of Lycorma delicatula and insecticidal activity of some insecticides against nymphs of L. delicatula was investigated. Nymph of L. delicatula had 4 instars, and color of body was black. There were white spots on the body of 1st-3rd nymph. Upper body became red at 4th nymph. Adult forewings were brownish, and had black spots. Color of hind wing were red. The egg mass was covered with a yellowish brown secretion. The adult of L. delicatula emerged once a year. Among test insecticides, deltamethrin 1% EC and fenitrothion 50% EC showed very quick and strong insecticidal activity against the 2nd-3rd nymphs of L. delicatula. Imidacloprid 4% SL and clothianidin 8% SC showed 100% insecticidal activity at 24h after treatment. Thiacoprid 10% SC revealed the weakest insecticidal activity among the insecticides tested.
