An analytical study on BMFCS was carried out by employing the computational fluid dynamics(CFD) method. In this study, the commercial CFD code Fluent(ver. 5.5) was used, and many assumptions were adopted to simplify the situation in the fuel cell. From the simulation, many valuable informations were obtained in terms of distributions of velocity, pressure, temperature, density and current density over the flow field. And thus, it was anticipated that the simulation results were very helpful in developing DMFCs by facilitate optimization of structures of electrodes and flow field of the separator.

The phenotype of Rhizoctonia solani KR-13 was randomly segregated to both melanin-producing (M+) and non-producing (M-) types through successive cultures on PDA. M+type with dark melanin showed strong pathogenicity to rice and self-anastomosis. Meanwhile, M- type with white or less-melanized mycelia showed very weak pathogenicity and non-self-anastomosis. Melanin production of R. solani was affected by incubation temperature in both M+ and M- types, but not by light treatment. The application of tricyclazole, an inhibitor of fungal melanin biosynthesis, showed no controlling effect on R. solani causing rice sheath blight. Results of this study showed that melanization of mycelia of R. solani is an important pathogenicity factor in rice.

The surface morphology of oil-lubricated surfaces fer hydraulic piston motors is believed to be extremely effective in contact mechanics, adhesion, friction and weak In order to describe morphology of various rubbed surfaces on driving conditions, the wear test was carried out under different experimental conditions in an oil-lubricated system. And fractal descriptors were applied to rubbed surfaces of hydraulic members and analyzed through an image processing system. These descriptors to analyze surface structure are fractal dimension. Surface fractal dimensions can be determined by sum of intensity difference of surface pixel. The morphology of rubbed surfaces can be effectively obtained by fractal dimension.

The fuel assemblies as the nuclear fuel for the pressurized water reactor(PWR) are loaded in the reactor core throughout the residence time of three to five years. The spacer grid assembly, which is an interconnected array of slotted grid straps and is welded at the intersections to form an egg crate structure, is one of the main structural components of the fuel assembly. The spacer grid assembly is structurally required to have enough buckling strength under various kinds of lateral load acting on the fuel assembly so as to keep the fuel assembly straight. To meet the requirement, integrity on the spacer grid welding parts should be carefully checked. In this study, welding quality of the spacer grid assembly welded by several welding companies are examined and compared.

A pollen-specific cDNA clone, LMP50, was isolated from the mature pollen cDNA library of the Easter lily. The LMP50 transcript was highly abundant in mture pollen grains but not detectable in other organs. The LMP50 cDNA clone contains 1383 nucleotides and two open reading frames. The first codes for a peptide of 15 amino acid residues. The role of this peptide is nuclear. The second encodes a protein containing 329 amino acid residues. This protein exhibited a significant homology to human tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase and porcine uteroferrin. Both of these enzymes have been suggested to play a role in iron transport. Therefore, LMP50 may act as an iron carrier protein in mature pollen grains.

Practical applications of learning systems usually involve complex domains exhibiting nonlinear behavior and dilution by noise. Consequently, an intelligent system must be able to adapt to nonlinear processes as well as probabilistic phenomena. An important class of application for a knowledge based systems in prediction: forecasting the future trajectory of a process as well as the consequences of any decision made by e system. This paper examines the robustness of data mining tools under varying levels of noise while predicting nonlinear processes in the form of chaotic behavior. The evaluated models include the perceptron neural network using backpropagation (BPN), the recurrent neural network (RNN) and case based reasoning (CBR). The concepts are crystallized through a case study in predicting a Henon process in the presence of various patterns of noise.

Fluid-elastic instability in an air-water two-phase cross-flow has been experimentally investigated using two different arrays of straight tube bundles: normal square (NS) array and rotated square (RS) array tube bundles with the same pitch-to-diameter ratio of 1.633. Experiments have been performed over wide ranges of mass flux and void fraction. The quantitative tube vibration displacement was measured using a pair of strain gages and the detailed orbit of the tube motion was analyzed from high-speed video recordings. The present study provides the flow pattern, detailed tube vibration response, damping ratio, hydrodynamic mass, and the fluid-elastic instability for each tube bundle. Tube vibration characteristics of the RS array tube bundle in the two-phase flow condition were quite different from those of the NS array tube bundle with respect to the vortex shedding induced vibration and the shape of the oval orbit of the tube motion at the fluid-elastic instability as well as the fluid-elastic instability constant.

An improved mechanistic model was developed to predict a convective boiling critical heat flux (CHF) in the vertical round tubes with uniform heat fluxes. The CHF formula for subcooled and low quality boiling was derived from the local conservation equations of mass, energy and momentum, together with appropriate constitutive relations. The model is characterized by the momentum balance equation to determine the limiting transverse interchange of mass flux crossing the interface of wall bubbly layer and core by taking account of the convective shear effect due to the frictional drag on the wall-attached bubbles. Comparison between the present model predictions and experimental CHF data from several sources shows good agreement over a wide range of How conditions. The present model shows comparable prediction accuracy with the CHF look-up table of Groeneveld et al. Also the model correctly accounts for the effects of flow variables as well as geometry parameters.

This paper deals with planning of order-picking warehouse considering the batch order picking for transportation equipments to pick consumers' orders at a time among order-picking methods and a systematic approach method in order to analyze the order-picking warehouse which can perform optimal operation. To estimate an operating time of transportation equipments to carry out order-picking, this paper suggests three operations : first, to design the refrigerated warehouse using warehouse design parameters, second, to calculate the travel time of transporters considering four types of times with the probabilistic picking frequency, and third, to analyze an order-picking warehouse to construct a simulation model with the AutoMod as a simulation tool. We apply this model to a refrigerated warehouse company in Busan.

The object of this study is an examination of source of robot noise and reduction of the noise and the vibration for an industrial robot system. As the first step in our study, the noise and the vibration from the robot are measured by microphones and by accelerometers and the source of the noise and the vibration are proved to be from the gear, shaft, and housing from the experiments. The occurrence of the noise may be classified according into kinds, Finally base on the result of the experiments, we consider a countermeasure for reducing the noise and the vibration of robot system by the parametric study.
