To investigate an influence of the thermal preheating for the substrates exerted on the heteroepilayers, the ZnTe epilayers are grown on the GaAs (100) at the substrate temperature of 450~$630^{\circ}C$ by hot wall epitaxy (HWE). For this purpose, double crystal rocking curve (DCRC) and photoluminescence (PL) are measured. The full width at half maximum of DCRC are the smallest in the ZnTe epilayers grown on the GaAs thermally etched at around both $510^{\circ}C$ and $590^{\circ}C$. However, at around $550^{\circ}C$ they increase due to the reconstruction of the atoms in the surface. And they increase due to the oxide layer at below $490^{\circ}C$ and due to the surface defects at above $610^{\circ}C$. From PL analysis, the full width at half maximum of the light hole exciton $X_{1s,th}$ and of the second-order Raman line increase at around $550^{\circ}C$. With the increasing preheating temperature, the intensities of Y-bands and of the oxygen bound exciton (OBE) peak related to an oxide layer on the GaAs surface generally decrease. From these experimental results, it's confirmed that the GaAs substrate thermally etched influences the ZnTe pilayers.

This paper suggests an algorithm that obtains the Minimum Spanning Tree for directed graph (DMST). The existing Chu-Liu/Edmonds DMST algorithm has chances of the algorithm not being able to find DMST or of the sum of ST not being the least. The suggested algorithm is made in such a way that it always finds DMST, rectifying the disadvantage of Chu-Liu/Edmonds DMST algorithm. Firstly, it chooses the Minimum-Weight Arc (MWA) from all the nodes including a root node, and gets rid of the nodes in which cycle occurs after sorting them in an ascending order. In this process, Minimum Spanning Forest (MST) is obtained. If there is only one MSF, DMST is obtained. And if there are more than 2 MSFs, to determine MWA among all MST nodes, it chooses a method of directly calculating the sum of all the weights, and hence simplifies the emendation process for solving a cycle problem of Chu-Liu/Edmonds DMST algorithm. The suggested Sulee DMST algorithm can always obtain DMST that minimizes the weight of the arcs no matter if the root node is set or not, and it is also capable to find the root node of a graph with minimized weight.

In this paper, I disprove Hadwiger conjecture of the vertex coloring problem, which asserts that "All $K_k$-minor free graphs can be colored with k-1 number of colors, i.e., ${\chi}(G)=k$ given $K_k$-minor." Pursuant to Hadwiger conjecture, one shall obtain an NP-complete k-minor to determine ${\chi}(G)=k$, and solve another NP-complete vertex coloring problem as a means to color vertices. In order to disprove Hadwiger conjecture in this paper, I propose an algorithm of linear time complexity O(V) that yields the exact solution to the vertex coloring problem. The proposed algorithm assigns vertex with the minimum degree to the Maximum Independent Set (MIS) and repeats this process on a simplified graph derived by deleting adjacent edges to the MIS vertex so as to finally obtain an MIS with a single color. Next, it repeats the process on a simplified graph derived by deleting edges of the MIS vertex to obtain an MIS whose number of vertex color corresponds to ${\chi}(G)=k$. Also presented in this paper using the proposed algorithm is an additional algorithm that searches solution of ${\chi}^{{\prime}{\prime}}(G)$, the total chromatic number, which also remains NP-complete. When applied to a $K_4$-minor graph, the proposed algorithm has obtained ${\chi}(G)=3$ instead of ${\chi}(G)=4$, proving that the Hadwiger conjecture is not universally applicable to all the graphs. The proposed algorithm, however, is a simple algorithm that directly obtains an independent set minor of ${\chi}(G)=k$ to assign an equal color to the vertices of each independent set without having to determine minors in the first place.

This study was conducted to determine the optimal mixing ratio of the paper mill sludge(PMS) and pig manure(PM). Since the former contains lots of total carbon and low nitrogen, it was used as carbon source. Also, dried paper mill sludge(DPMS) was added to the mixture to control the water content. The treatments was composed of four as follows, PMS-100(PM 0%+PMS 80%+DPMS 20%), PMS-85(15+65+20), PMS-70(30+50+20), and PMS-55(45+35+20). The mixtures were composted under aerobic condition in $1.25m^3$ static piles. The piles were aerated for 15 minutes per day and turned over the mixture once a week at the early stage of composting. To estimate the maturity of composts, the changes of physico-chemical properties such as temperature, pH, C/N ratio and color were monitored every week. The 25-30 and 55-60% as optimal condition of C/N ratio and moisture content were respectively recommended for effective composting by the evaluation of the changes of phsico-chemical properties for materials taken from compost files during the composting period. When the 30 and 45% of PM were mixed with PMS, the maturity time at least demanded to the stable state were shortened and the qualify of the final product was improved in a view of nutritional components.

We first investigated basic characteristics of reticulated polyurethane (PU) foams as microbial carriers. In general, the specific surface area of PU foams increases with respect to decreasing pore sizes. However, the number of microbes adhered on the unit surface of reticulated PU foams decreases with respect to decreasing pore sizes. Thus, as a result of totally considering all effects such as apparent density, hydrolysis rate, and adhesion, we can know that PU foams with 45 PPI is the most appropriate microbial carrier. In this study, we can also investigate the effect of various physico-chemical surface treatments on the adhesion of microbes on the surface of PU foams. We used a chitosan treatment, a PEI (Polyethylene Imine) treatment, a xanthane treatment and a plasma treatment. As a result of comparing all surface treatments, the plasma surface treatment was the best.

The most decisive factor of major sources of a helicopter is the main rotor system and the rotor-induced vibration is one of the technical challenges which should be resolved to ensure comfort for crews and passengers. Passive vibration reduction devices are adopted in conventional helicopters and several types of passive devices are also used in Surion. In recent years, foreign helicopter manufactures have increasingly applied the application of AVCS (active vibration control system) because of their superior performance with lower weight compared to passive device. In addition to weight reduction, AVCS has advantages maintaining its performance over aircraft configuration changes and flight condition changes. The technology demonstration program was performed in order to validate the performance of AVCS when applied to Surion, and optimization process for finding optimal configuration of sensors and actuators. Optimal configuration was produced using ground and flight test data, and its performance was evaluated and compared with flight test result.

The Nanji landfill is one of the biggest uncontrolled landfill in terms of its size and scale in the world. Because the landfill was constructed on the very vulnerable alluvial deposit installing no pollution control systems such as bottom liner and leachate collection systems, it has caused a serious adverse effect to near-by groundwater and surface water systems. A through remedial investigation comprising plume detection and site-characterization was performed to design the remedial measure. As a part the investigation, comprehensive water quality study was conducted, using ten existing observation wells and one bundle type monitoring well, to determine the contaminant indicators for the plume delineation and to define the vertical and horizontal variation of specific contaminants via distances from the landfill. The results clearly shows that EC and temperature are a good pollution indicators and the vertical concentrations of specific contaminants measured in the fully screened wells are 20 to 90% more than those measured at the same depth in bundle type well which is located just 2 m apart. This paper presents a cost effective monitoring and sampling method to define the contaminant plume and obtain a basic data for leachate control measures.

Bordetella pertussis is pathogenic bacteria causing pertussis, a infectious respiratory disease for the infants. The incidence rate of pertussis was significantly decreased after introduction of vaccine. However, increased pertussis cases are recently reported in several countries with high vaccine coverage. One of the inferred reasons is genotype or serotype variation between circulating strains and vaccine strains. Therefore, it is required to confirm the variation status of the isolates by genotype or serotype analysis and the possibility of pertussis outbreak in Korea should be estimated. For this, the serotype variations of the isolates from $1999\sim2006$ were investigated in agglutinogen and fimbriae. As the result, the most frequent serotype in the isolated strains was agglutinogen 1 and fimbriae 2 serotypes. Moreover, serotype transition from vaccine serotypes to non-vaccine serotypes was observed. Especially, the transition pattern of agglutinogen serotype was directed to increase a different type (agg 1) from the vaccine type (agg 1,2). However, in case of fimbriae, the same type (fim 2) with vaccine strain was increased. These results were also observed in other countries with increasing incidence of pertussis. For more predictable results to know increasing possibility of pertussis incidence in Korea, the studies on genetic variations of antigenic determinant genes and prevalence of antibody titer in normal population should be performed in the further.

The identification characteristics of irradiated commercial Ramen soup were investigated depending on radiation sources and doses by electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy. Two commercial powder soups (RS-1, RS-2) were irradiated at 0 to 20 kGy under ambient conditions by both a Co-60 gamma irradiator and an electron beam (EB) accelerator, respectively. Crystalline sugar-induced multi-component signals with g-values of 2.010/2.011, 2.006, 2.002 and 1.999 were detected in the irradiated Ramen soup (RS-1, RS-2), whereas $Mn^{2+}$ signals were observed in non-irradiated samples, thereby distinguishing each other. Under the same analytical conditions, the intensity of ESR signals was higher in EB-irradiated samples than the gamma-irradiated ones. Determination coefficients ($R^2$) between irradiation doses and corresponding ESR responses were above 0.9665 in all the samples, and the magnetic field of specified g-value remained constant. The predominant ESR signals of $g_2$ (2.010-2.011) and $g_3$ (2.002) increased with corresponding doses of irradiation ($R^2$= 0.9750-0.9981).
