In this work, we prepared the carbons from synthesized styrene-acrylonitrile carbon precursor. The prepared carbons were chemically activated, and then the activated SAN-based carbons were named as A-SANs. The activations were carried out at different temperatures to investigate the effect of activation temperature on the surface and electrochemical properties of the activated SAN-based carbons for using as an electrode of electric double layer capacitors (EDLC). The characteristics of A-SAN were determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), surface area and pore size analysis. Also, the electrochemical behaviors were observed by cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic charge-discharge method. From the results, the A-SAN 700 showed excellent electrochemical property and the highest specific capacitance, but these properties decreased when the activation temperature was above $700^{\circ}C$. This is due to the fact that the activation at a temperature over $700^{\circ}C$ causes deformation of micropore structures.

Despite the improved formability and processing advantages, the use of semi-solid metals is greatly limited due to the difficulties in controlling the optimum forming parameters. In the present study, the tensile properties of closed die, pressure formed semi-solid A356 alloy were examined. It was demonstrated that the tensile strength of thixoformed A356 alloy could be greatly reduced when the forming parameters were not rigorously controlled. The reduced strength of unappropriately formed products appeared to be related to the coarsening of the primary phases. The possibility of improving tensile properties of as-formed products by simple post heat treatment was also assessed.

To produce and characterize antineoplastic constituents in the submerged cultured­mycelia of Laccaria laccata, the mycelia were extracted with distilled water. Purification of the extract was carried out by acetone precipitation, by ion exchange chromatography using DEAE­Sephadex A-50, CM-Sephadex C-25 resins, and by gel filtration chromatography on Sephadex G-200. Each fraction obtained during the purification was examined for antineoplastic activity against sarcoma 180 in ICR mice. As the purification proceeded, the antineoplastic activity was markedly increased. The highly purified Fraction E showed 75% tumor inhibition ratio at a dose of 10mg/kg/day and contained 81% polysaccharide and 4% protein. The antitumor component of Fraction E stimulated an accumulation of peritoneal exudate cells including peritoneal macrophages, and is named laccaran.

1922년 R. L. Parshall이 고안한 파샬플륨은 현재 사용되고 있는 개수로 유량계로서는 가장 많은 실험자료를 보유하고 있다. 위어에 비해 설치가 어렵고 경제성이 떨어지는 단점도 있지만 설치 후에는 상대적으로 다른 시설보다 토사이동이 원활하다는 장점이 있어 하수 및 폐수 등의 유량측정에 많이 적용되고 있다. 용담저수지의 주요 지천인 금강본류와 구량천 2곳에는 국가가 관리하는 수위관측소가 있다. 설치지점의 지명을 따 동향수위관측소와 천천수위관측소로 운용되고 있으며, 동향수위관측소 약 170 m 하류와 천천수위관측소 약 2.5 km 상류 2곳에 갈수기 유량조사를 위한 파샬플륨이 설치되었다. 동향파샬프륨과 천천파샬플륨은 갈수기 유량을 고려하여 Iso 9826의 파샬플륨 번호 10(Parshall flume No. 10)과 유사한 규격(설치당시 목부(Throat)폭 5ft))으로 설계되었으며, 플륨으로 흐름을 유도하는 유입부(Entrance section) 좌 우 횡단방향에 보를 연결하여 상대적으로 하폭이 넓은 자연하천에 적용하였다. 수년간의 현장운용 결과, 파샬플륨의 가장 큰 장점이었던 원활한 토사이동이 보로 인해 차단되고, 누적된 토사가 흐름을 왜곡시킴으로서 플륨내 수위로부터 환산한 유량값에 비교적 큰 오차를 발생시 킬 수 있음을 알게 되었다. 본 연구는 이러한 문제의 원인이 상류에 누적된 토사에 있음을 규명하고 대처방안을 제시하기위해 동향파샬플륨을 대상으로 수행되었다. 플륨을 통한 유량자료의 신뢰도는 (1) 플륨내 정밀유량측정, (2) 50 m 하류에서의 도섭법에 의한 유량측정 그리고 (3) 130 m 하류에서의 도섭법에 의한 유량측정을 통하여 비교 및 검증하였다. 조사결과 플륨내 수위는 상류에 퇴적된 토사로 인해 일정하지 않으며 이로 인해 유량에 오차가 발생하고 있음이 확인되었다. 또한 본 연구에서는 자연하천에서의 파샬플륨 적용을 위해 토사이동을 고려한 설비의 구조개량을 병행하였다. 새로운 형태의 파샬플륨은 '에코플륨'이라 명명하였으며 원활한 토사이동과 인공구조물에 의한 자연경관 훼손을 방지할 수 있는 두 가지의 효과가 기대된다. 현재 실물모형의 제작이 완료되어 실내실험을 수행하고 있으며, 머지않은 장래에 현장설치가 가능하다고 판단된다.

To effectively identify near-surface faults with vertical slips from seismic refraction data, the GRM interpretation technique is tested and investigated in terms of various parameters through computer modeling. A characteristic change in shape of the velocity-analysis function near faults is noticed, and a new strategy of `Slope Variation Indicator (SVI)' is developed and tested in this study. The SVI is defined as a first horizontal derivative of the difference of velocity analysis functions for a large XY value and a small one, respectively. As the dip of refractor decreases and as the difference in XY value increases, the peak value of SVI increases and its duration decreases. Consequently, the SVI indicates accurately the location of buried fault in the test models. The SVI is believed to be an efficient tool in seismic refraction method to investigate location and distribution of shallowly buried faults.

The citizen-initiative has been frequently mentioned in community building project which is being promoted by Seoul City. The citizen-initiative has become an important concept in the direction of community welfare efforts. However, this concept has not been defined clearly in social welfare. In this context, the purpose of this study is to find how the practitioners of the social welfare practice field recognize the concept of citizen-initiative. In this study, concept mapping method was used to generate 59 statements about the citizeninitiative in 10 social workers in Seoul. Multidimensional scaling analysis and hierarchical cluster analysis are used to do mapping and grouping the 59 statements. The results are as follows. A total of 6 categories were derived. The six categories are named "Inducement of Participation", "Practice", "Procedure", "Awareness and Interest extension", "Expression of Opinion", "Attitude and Emotion". "Practice" category was revealed as a core category in the concept of citizen-initiative. This study is meaningful as a first step to discuss "what is the citizen-initiative?" and to make consensus in social welfare academic area and practice field.

In this study, we aimed to develop a simple analysis method for measuring the carotenoids content of pepper powder. A 96-wells polystyrene microplate and an ELISA reader were used for analysis. Although ELISA reader with 450 nm filter was applicable to measure carotenoid contents, the surface of microplates were degenerated by acetone used for carotenoids extraction. However, ten-folded dilute of the color extract with methanol did not affect the surface of polystyrene microplate and components of the color extract could be successfully measured by a ELISA reader, showing a high corelation with ASTA-20.1 method. In addition, this method uses 10 fold less acetone than ASTA-20.1 method resulting less acetone waste. The microplate method using ELISA reader has potential power for analyzing a large number of samples which may be very useful to the practical breeding program for high-colored peppers.

In this paper, an A-team(Asynchronous Team ) based approach for Reactive power and volage control considering static security assessment in a power system with infrastructural deficiencies is proposed. Reactive power and voltage control problem is the one of optimally establishing voltage level given several constraints such as reactive generation, voltage magnitude, line flow, and other switchable reactive power sources. It can be formulated as a mixed-integer linear programming(MILP) problem without deteriorating of solution accuracy to a certain extent. The security assessment is to estimate the relative robustness of the system in Its present state through the evaluation of data provided by security monitoring. Deterministic approach based on AC load flow calculations is adopted to assess the system security, especially voltage security. A security metric, as a standard of measurement for power system security, producting a set of discrete values rather than binary values, is employed. In order to analyze the above two problems, reactive power/voltage control problem and static security assessment problem, in an integrated fashion for real-time operations, a new organizational structure, called an A-team, is adopted. An A-team is an organization for agents which ale all autonomeus, work in parallel and communicate asynchronously, which is well-suited to the development of computer-based, multi-agent systems for operations. This A-team based approach, although it is still in the beginning stage, also has potential for handling other difficult power system problems.

A bacterium producing five fibrinolytic isozymes was isolated from black bean chung kuk. The bacterium was identified as Bacillus subtilis BB-1 by 16s rDNA sequence homology search. A gene out of five fibrinolytic genes in the Bacillus subtilis BB-1 was cloned by shot-gun method. A Cla I DNA fragment of B. subtilis BB-1 chromosome was cloned in to pBluescript II SK(-) and showed the fibrinolytic activity to bacterial cells. The Cla I DNA fragment was sequenced and the sequences did not show homology with gene for protease or fibrinolytic enzyme genes in other organisms. The Cla I DNA fragment was reduced to 2,142 bp by activity-guided PCR cloning method. The optimum pH and temperature of the enzyme were 5.0 and $35^{\circ}C$, respectively. Substrate specificity of the fibrinolytic enzyme was detected in skim milk, casein, gelatin and blood agar plates. The activity of the enzyme was not detected with these substrates. Taken together, this enzyme is a new fibrinolytic enzyme and may be used to prevent thrombosis and arteriosclerosis.

Phalaenopsis (Phal.) "Yellow Dream" was developed by the National Institute of Horticultural & Herbal Science (NIHHS), Rural Development Administration (RDA) in 2005. This hybrid came from the progenies of a cross between Phal. "3031" which has yellow colored petals and small plant size, and Phal. "Golden Emperor" which has yellow colored petals with red spots and small plant size in 1995. "Yellow Dream" was finally selected in 2005 after the investigation of the growth and flower characteristics from 2000 to 2004. "Yellow Dream" had a yellow (Y4D) base color and light orange stripe petals (ORN34A) with a red lip (R42D). The average leaf length and flower width of "Yellow Dream" were 21cm and 6.8cm, respectively. It has a half erect leaf form and is a fast growing cultivar. This hybrid is relatively easy to make clones.
