In this study, an investigation is made from the statics and economic aspects of the possibility of using the composite material ferrocement on the surfaces of squat cylindrical grain silos. For this purpose, the geometry of two model silos, each of height 5 m and diameter 5 m and 12.5 m, was designed. Five different reinforced plates of 10 and 20 mm thickness were produced to research the most suitable ferrocement plates to be used on the surface of these silos. Most durable reinforcement type for covering the silo surface was determined by pressure and bending tests. Grade 30 and Grade 55 steel plates were also considered for use in covering steel-coated silos. In the statics analysis performed with SAP2000, the least plate thicknesses needed for silos surfaced with Grade 30 and Grade 55 steel were found to be 6.20 mm and 4.70 mm respectively for silos of diameter 5 m, and 6.70 mm and 5.00 mm for silos of diameter 12.5 m. In the economic analysis, it was found that 20 mm thick Type 4 (with a wire diameter of 0.30 mm and a mesh aperture of $2mm{\times}2mm$ square type) reinforced ferrocement surfacing material was 5.6-6.1 times more economical than Grade 30 steel surfacing material and 4.4-4.7 times more economical than using Grade 55 steel. These results show that ferrocement can be used in place of steel from the point of view both of statics and economy.

Thickness optimization of heavily doped p-type seeding layer was studied to improve performance of thin film silicon solar cell. We used liquid phase epitaxy (LPE) to grow active layer of $25{\mu}m$ thickness on $p^+$ seeding layer. The cells with $p^+$ seeding layer of $10{\mu}m\;to\;50{\mu}m$ thickness were fabricated. The highest efficiency of a cell is 12.95%, with $V_{oc}=633mV,\;J_{sc}=26.5mA/cm^2$, FF = 77.15%. The $p^+$ seeding layer of the cell is $20{\mu}m$ thick. As thicker seeding layer than $20{\mu}m$, the performance of the cell was degraded. The results demonstrate that the part of the recombination current is due to the heavily doped seeding layer. Thickness of heavily doped p-type seeding layer was optimized to $20{\mu}m$. The performance of solar cell is expected to improve with the incorporation of light trapping as texturing and AR coating.

To make up the medium for quantitative selection of capacitated-sperm through sucrose layer, the effects of BSA, caffeine, heparin and progesterone on sperm swim-up migration and movement were examined. And the results obtained were as follows; 1. BSA of 4mg/ml in bMSS stimulated sperm migration and movement, and attracted capacitated-sperm. 2. Caffeine of 5mM in bMSS containing 4mg/ml BSA stimulated sperm movement and attracted capacitated-sperm. 3. Heparin of 20$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml in bMAA containing both 4mg/ml BSA and 5mM caffeine stimulated movement and capacitation of sperm. 4. Progesterone of 50$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml in bMSS containing all 4mg/ml BSA, 5mM caffeine and 20$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml heparin (BCHP-MSS) attracted capacitated-sperm. 5. Effect of BCHP-MSS on sperm on sperm attraction was not different from effect of 10% follicular fluid solution (FF-MSS) on sperm swim-up separation. In conclusion, bMSS with 4mg/ml BSA, 5mM caffeine, 20$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml heparin and 50$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml progesterone(BCHP-MSS) was a optimal condition for selection of capacitated-sperm through sucrose layer.

A Continous wave tunable $CO_2$ laser which is the slow axial flow type was construccted for the optical pumping of methyl alcohol ($CH_3OH$) laser. The reflective grating of 100 grooveslmm and 10.6$\mu\textrm{m}$ blaze wavelength was used to select wavelength. We have investigated continous outpu: power characteristics, and then have compared tuned output power profile with the gain curve of $CO_2$ laser. The optimum condition for maxium power was found at the gas mixing ratio 1 : 3 : 10 for $CO_2: N_2$ and He. under this condition the flow rate, pressure of lasing gas and discharge current are 9.5 llmin. 14 torr, and 55 mA respectively. The maxium output power was 55 Wlm. Output power of single wavelength operation was measured on 60 individual rotation vibration transitions in the P and K branches of the 9.5$\mu\textrm{m}$ band and 10.4$\mu\textrm{m}$ band in $CO_2$. The output power profile obtained from each band is well consistent with the gain curve of $CO_2$ laser and maxium tuned output power was 20 watt.

This study was conducted to find out the suitable NaCl concentration and temperature for investigating the varietal difference of salinity tolerance in Italian ryegrass. Seeds of 20 cultivars including 9 diploid and 11 tetraploid were exposed to eight levels of NaCl concentration ranging from 0 to 350mM under three temperature levels of 15, 20 and $25^{\circ}C$. The NaCl concentration(C50%) inhibited germination of 50% of the viable seeds for the cultivars at 15$^{\circ}C$ was 354mM, and those at 2$0^{\circ}C$ and $25^{\circ}C$ were 342mM and 325mM, respectively. There were significant correlations among C50% at three levels of temperature, and correlation coefficient for C50% between 2$0^{\circ}C$ and 15$^{\circ}C$ was higher than that between $25^{\circ}C$ and 15$^{\circ}C$ or 2$0^{\circ}C$. C50% was positively correlated only with germination speed at 10 days after sowing when the plants were exposed to 350mM NaCl at 2$0^{\circ}C$. For the germination speed at 10 days after sowing in 350mM NaCl at 2$0^{\circ}C$, the cultivars used could be classified into three groups. Wase Aoba, Bettina, E. K -11, Tetrone, Lira Sand, Tetra Florum and Billiken belonged to the tolerant group, and Tuchi Was, Wase Yutaka, Sakura Wase, Magnolia, Limella and Delita were as the semi-susceptible group, and Atalja, Barmultra, Ajax, Liberta, LM-16, Elving and Wilo were as the susceptible group.

It is suggested that carbohydrate metabolites may involve in the development of morula to blastocyst but many of the mechanisms are not unmasked. Two-cell stage embryos were collected and examined the effects of lactate on the development of blastocyst in vitro. The expression profiles of lactate dehydrognase (Ldh) genes and aquaporin (Aqp) genes were analyzed with RT-PCR. The successful development from morula to blastocyst was dependent on lactate concentrations. The expression profiles of Ldh genes were changed by the lactate concentration. Ldha was expressed in morula stage at 10 mM lactate, and in blastocyst stage at lactate free condition. Ldhb was expressed in morula stage at 10 mM and 20 mM lactate, and in blastocyst stage at 10 mM lactate. Aqp genes were also showed different expression patterns by the lactate concentrations. Aqp3 was expressed in hatching embryo at 120 hr post hCG administration (hph) which was cultured in BWW medium and lactate free condition. Aqp7 was expressed in hatching embryos at 120 hph which was cultured at 10 mM lactate condition. Also Aqp8 was expressed in hatching embryo at BWW and 20 mM lactate condition. Aqp9 was expressed in morula at BWW and 10 mM lactate condition, and in blastocyst at BWW. Based on these results, it is suggested that concentration of lactate in the medium and the level of lactate synthesis in embryo is critical factor for blastocoels formation. In addition it is suggested that LDH may involve the AQPs expression in embryos.

The concentrations of some ions ($NO{_3}^-$, $Ca^{2+}$, $Mg^{2+}$, $NH{_4}^+$) in soil solution collected by zero tension lysimeter in mature Pinus rigida plantations in Goksung, Jeonranam-do were measured at two soil depths (10cm and 30cm) following various levels of cutting intensity treatment (uncut, $6m{\times}50m$, $10m{\times}50m$, $20m{\times}50m$ strip crearcutting) three times (July 6. July 30, and August 4) between June 20 and August 4 1998. The ion concentrations in the soil solution were significantly different among sampling times, while the concentrations were not different among cutting levels or sampling depths. The ion concentrations in the soil solution decreased in the order of $NO{_3}^-$ > $Ca^{2+}$ > $Mg^{2+}$ > $NH{_4}^+$ and the mean concentration was 3.60mg/L for $NO{_3}^-$, 1.7mg/L for $Ca^{2+}$, 0.5mg/L for $Mg^{2+}$, and 0.04mg/L for $NH{_4}^+$ respectively. These ion concentrations except for $NH{_4}^+$ ion were negatively correlated with the volume of collected soil solutions (r=-0.31~-0.41). The results suggest that the change of nutrient concentrations in the soil solution collected from the P. rigida plantations was related to the temporal input patterns of precipitation rather than the cutting intensity.
