Since the Fukushima nuclear accident, several researchers are extensively studying the effect of torsion on the piping systems In nuclear power plants. Piping installations in power plants with a circumferential crack can be operated under combined loading conditions such as bending and torsion. ASME Code provides flaw evaluations for fully plastic fractures using limit load criteria for the structural integrity of the cracked pipes. According to the recent version of Code, combined loadings are provided only for the membrane and bending. Even though actual operating conditions have torsion loading, the methodology for evaluating torsion load is not established. This paper provides the results of limit load analyses by using finite element models for circumferentially cracked pipes under pure bending, pure torsion, and combined bending and torsion with tension. Theoretical limit load solutions based on net-section fully plastic criteria are suggested and verified with the results of finite element analyses.

The isozymes of glutamic oxalacetic transaminase from young rice root were isolated by DEAE-cellulose column chromatography, and investigated some of their enzymic properties. Obtained results were summarized as follows: 1. 93 percent of GOT activity in rice root existed in supernatant fraction, and their specific activity exibited the same pattern. 2. The rice root contained two types of GOT isozyme; cationic and anionic GOT. It seemed that both of them were distributed in supernatant fraction. 3. GOT isozymes of rice root on the pH dependance showed their maximum activity at 7.4. 4. On the stability of GOT isozymes for temperature, anionic GOT was more unstable than cationic GOT. 5. Apparent Michaelis constant for L-aspartate of GOT isozymes from rice root showed 12-14mM in the cationic GOT and 16mM in the anionic GOT, respectively.

Visible-light-responding photocatalysts, $N-TiO_2$, were prepared by nitrogen doping onto $TiO_2$. The crystalline structure and morphology, doping state of the prepared photocatalysts were characterized by XRD, FE-SEM, and XPS. The activity of the prepared photocatalysts was examined by the decomposition of methyleneblue. The prepared catalysts were anatase type and the crystallinity was increased with pH. The particle sizes of the prepared catalysts were 5.42, 5.99, 7.58 nm at pH 2.2, 4.7, 9.0, respectively. The particle sizes of the prepared catalysts were slightly increased with pH. The activity of the photocatalysts was directly proportional to the crystallinity of the catalysts. $N-TiO_2$ prepared by nitrogen doping onto $TiO_2$ showed activity under visible light. The doped nitrogen was located not in the lattice but on the surface.

There is a gap between the inner wall of a pulse tube and an underwater acoustic material when the measurement for transmission loss by the pulse tube is carried out. In this paper, the effect, which is caused by the gap, for the measurement of transmission loss is analyzed. Transmission coefficient is derived from the ratio of the pressures between front and rear of the gap. Then, transmission loss for specimen with a gap is obtained by combining the transmission coefficients of the gap and specimen. The results of experiment and simulation for a specimen of stainless steel with 10 mm thickness are compared in order to evaluate the simulation model. Finally, simulations with respect to the gap size and transmission loss of a specimen are performed to analyze and evaluate the effect of the gap in measurement of transmission loss.

In practice, thresholds are determined by the two subjective assessment methods in a generalized pareto distribution of mean extreme function(MEF-graph) or Hill-graph. To remedy the problem of subjectiveness of these methods, we propose an alternative method to determine the threshold based on the robust statistics. We compared the MEF-graph, Hill-graph and our method through VaRs on the Korean stock market data from January 5, 1987 to August 3, 2009. As a result, the VaR based on the proposed method is not much different from the existing methods, and the standard deviation of VaR for our method was the smallest. The results show that our method can be a promising alternative to determine thresholds of the generalized pareto distributions.

Asymmetric jump-diffusion models are effectively used to model the dynamic behavior of asset prices with abrupt asymmetric upward and downward changes. However, the estimation of their extension to the multivariate asymmetric jump-diffusion model has been hampered by the analytically intractable likelihood function. This article confronts the problem using a data augmentation method and proposes a new Bayesian method for a multivariate asymmetric Laplace jump-diffusion model. Unlike the previous models, the proposed model is rich enough to incorporate all possible correlated jumps as well as mention individual and common jumps. The proposed model and methodology are illustrated with a simulation study and applied to daily returns for the KOSPI, S&P500, and Nikkei225 indices data from January 2005 to September 2015.

In the course of preparing for the transfer of the Boshin-gak Bell, which was designated as Treasure No. 2, due to the transfer of the National Museum of Korea, the current internal cracks and defects in the founding of the bell were examined in order to verify its solidity through γ-ray penetration via ⁶⁰Co. The bell's compositions were also examined with x-ray fluorescence spectroscopy. The result showed that the bell had 65.2% cracks when viewed from the horizontal direction and 62.5% cracks when viewed from the vertical direction. The cracks had approximately 5cm depth. In addition, the result of examining the composition of the bell revealed that it was made of 89~92% copper and 7.5~10.5% tin as well as traces of impurities including 0.1~0.3% lead and not more than 0.1% iron, manganese, etc.

The change of lactate dehydrogenase(LDH) activity and the possibility of the existence of LDH. isozyme were examined with different parts of soybean sprout. The enzyme activity was little changed in cotyledons throughout the early stagy of germination. However, hypocotyls and roots showed the continuous decline of the enzyme activity since the radicle emerged from seeds. It was found that LDH from hypocotyls. and roots was unstable as compared with LDH from cotyledons, even at low temperature. The enzyme from hypocotyls and roots was not purified with a good yield when the purification procedure developed for LDH from cotyledons. was employed. LDH from hypocotyls and roots has the Rm value of 0.29, and 0.25 from cotyledons. The apparent Km value for LDH from cotyledons was 0.45mM with sodium pyruvate, while crude homogenate of hypocotyls or roots showed biphasic phenomenon with two Km values 0.014 and 0.45mM. The results indicate the possibility that crude homogenate of hypocotyls or roots may contain a different LDH isozyme from the LDH of soybean reported previously.

최근 쌀 소비량이 감소되고 쌀중심 식생활의 영양적 우수성을 인식하지 못하여 쌀은 주식으로서 위치가 흔들리고 있다. 그동안 쌀의 영양특성에 관한 연구로서 주로 탄수화물 급원으로서의 당질에 관한 연구와 미강을 중심으로한 식이섬유, 미강유등에 관한 연구결과들이 발표되었다. 특히 미곡 부산물인 미강으로부터 다양한 유효성분들이 확인되어 그 효능이 보고되고 있으며 일부가 기능성 소재로서 제품화되기도 하였다. 그러나 실제 우리의 식생활에서 섭취되고 있는 백미 또는 현미상태에서의 유효성분의 분포 및 함량에 대한 연구는 미진한 상태이다. 본 연구에서는 쌀의 영양적우수성을 규명하고자 유효성분 중 phenolic acid와 폴리페놀 함량을 품종 및 도정도에 따라 조사하였다. 조생종인 오대와 만생종인 남평 품종으로부터 현미와 7분도, 10분도 및 12분도로 도정도를 달리한 백미, 도정도별 미강을 각각 제조하였다. Ferulic acid 등 쌀과 미강에 존재하는 phenolic acid 는 알칼리로 추출한 후 pH를 조정하고 에틸아세테이트로 반복 추출하여 HPLC로 분석하였다. 현미에 함유된 phenolic acid는 ferulic acid가 가장 많아 50％ 내외를 차지하였으며 p-coumaric acid, benzoic acid, sinapinic acid 순으로 검출되었다. 오대 현미의 총 phenolic acid 함량은 65.9 mg%로서 남평 현미의 57.2 mg%보다 높았으며 도정도가 증가할수록 백미 중의 총 phenolic acid 함량은 감소되었다. 미강 중에는 백미의 10배 량에 해당하는 phenolic acid가 검출되었고 benzoic acid와 m-hydroxy benzoic acid는 미강 시료에서만 검출되었다. 도정한 백미 중의 phenolic acid는 28.8∼51.7 mg%, 미강에서 321.4∼438.4 mg% 범위로 나타났다. 현미, 백미 및 미강에 함유된 총 폴리페놀의 함량을 표준 페놀화합물로 카테친을 사용하고 비색법에 의하여 측정하였을 때 오대 현미의 폴리페놀 함량은 78.4 mg%, 남평 현미 88.8 mg% 였다. 도정한 백미 중의 총 폴리페놀 함량은 30.3∼56.9 mg%, 미강이 541.5∼472.6 mg%의 범위였다. 이상과 같이 쌀에는 phenolic acid 및 총 폴리페놀이 상당량 함유되어 있으며 특히 배유보다는 강층에 많이 존재하므로 이들 성분의 효율적인 이용을 위한 쌀의 섭취방안이 필요한 것으로 나타났다.
