High purity $\beta$-SiC powders were synthesized using sol-gel processing. TEOS and phenol resin were used as the starting material for the silicon source and carbon source, respectively. The process turned out to be capable of producing high purity SiC powder purity degree with 99.98 %. However, it was difficult to control the shape and size of $\beta$-SiC powders synthesized by sol-gel process. In this study, $\beta$-SiC powder with size of $1{\sim}5$ um an 30 nm were used as the seeds for $\beta$-SiC to control the $\beta$-SiC powder morphology. It was found that $\beta$-SiC powder seeds was effective to increase the powder average size of synthesized $\beta$-SiC using sol-gel process by acting as the preferred growing sites for $\beta$-SiC.

Empirical Bayes procedure of nonparametric estiamtion of cumulative hazard rates based on censored data is considered using the beta process priors of Hjort(1990). Beta process priors with unknown parameters are used for cumulative hazard rates. Empirical Bayes estimators are suggested and asymptotic optimality is proved. Our result generalizes that of Susarla and Van Ryzin(1978) in the sensor that (i) the cumulative hazard rate induced by a Dirichlet process is a beta process, (ii) our empirical Bayes estimator does not depend on the censoring distribution while that of Susarla and Van Ryzin(1978) does, (iii) a class of estimators of the hyperprameters is suggested in the prior distribution which is assumed known in advance in Susarla and Van Ryzin(1978). This extension makes the proposed empirical Bayes procedure more applicable to real dta sets.

A submerged cultivation of Ganoderma lucidum was carried out in an air-lift fermenter system, and the effects of different pH processes on extracellular branched ${\beta}$-1,3-glucan(EPS) production and mycelial growth(MDW) were investigated. The controlled pH process improved the production of branched ${\beta}$-1,3-glucan and biomass in comparison to the uncontrolled pH process. However, the maximum production of branched ${\beta}$-1,3-glucan were obtained by the bi-staged pH process. From these results, we confirmed that the bi-staged pH process was the most effective for improving the production of branched ${\beta}$-1,3-glucan from submerged culture of G. lucidum.

Microencapsulation of flavor was carried out by molecular inclusion process using $\beta$-cyclodextrin (${\beta}CD$). ${\beta}CD$-flavor complex was prepared at various flavor-to-${\beta}CD$ ratios (1:6-1:12) to determine the effect of ${\beta}CD$ concentration on the inclusion efficiency. Maximum total oil retention and minimal surface oil content were obtained at flavors to ${\beta}CD$ ratio of 1:10. The physical properties and controlled release pattern of flavors from ${\beta}CD$-flavor complex were measured and compared with spray-dried microcapsules prepared using carbohydrate wall system. ${\beta}CD$-flavor complex showed higher total oil retention and surface oil contents, smaller mean particle size, lower moisture uptake, and higher oxidation stability than spray-dried microcapsule. Oxidative stability of flavor was correlated with hygroscopicity of wall materials. The controlled release mechanism was highly affected by temperature and characteristics of wall materials.

$\beta$-Sialon powder was prepared from Wando pyrophyllite by the carbothermic reduction and nitridation at 135$0^{\circ}C$ for 10 h nitrogen atmosphere. Amorphous silica prepared from Si(OC2H5)4 was added to Wando pyrophyllite powder in order to control the final Z value. Two different methods were applied for synthesis of $\beta$-sialon powders. In Process A, the amorphous silica prepared from Si(OC2H5)4 was admixed to Wando pyrophyllite powder. Process B was started from the mixture of Wando Y2O3 was added to the synthesized $\beta$-Sialon powders as a sintering aid, and the mixed powders were hot pressed at 175$0^{\circ}C$ for 120 min in nitrogen atmosphere under 30 MPa. Their mechanical properties were compared. The maximum values of M.O.R., hardness and KIC were 667 MPa, 16 GPa and 6.3 MN/m3/2, respectively, and they are the values obtained form $\beta$-Sialon ceramics prepared by process A of Z=0.5.

A new process is developed to improve the electrical characteristics of high .beta. and low saturation voltage power transistor for lamp solenoid driver application. To prevent punch-through breakdown, appropriate combination of base doping and base width is necessary in the range of operating voltage of the circuit. The optimum values of base doping and sheet resistance are $Q_{D}$= $1.5{\times}10^{14}$atoms/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and $R_{s}$= 350 $\Omega/\square$ base wodtj $W_{B}$= $2.5{\mu}m$respectively. Under this condition it is possible to control $\beta$ of the transistor to 1500, maintaining $VB_{CBO}$ =200V. To reduce scattered distribution of .beta. of the devices on the wafer, it is necessary to improve emittter predeposition process. As a result, scattered distribution of .beta. of the devices on the wafer was reduced to 1/6 by using the new process. To improve collector to emitter forward voltage drop, $V_{ECF}$ of damper diode, an additional silicon etching process is used, which resulted in improving the value of $V_{eCF}$ from 2.8 V to 1.8V. With the suggested process superior device performance and higher yield are achieved.

The microparticles of 2-hydroxypropyl-${\beta}$-cyclodextrin (HP-${\beta}$-CD) were prepared using aerosol solvent extraction system (ASES) by employing supercritical carbon dioxide as an antisolvent, The effects of various process parameters such as temperature, pressure, solution concentration and solution flow rate on the formation of HP-${\beta}$-CD microparticles were investigated. The HP-${\beta}$-CD microparticles prepared by the ASES process were observed to consist of agglomerates of nano-sized (50-200 nm) particles. When an aqueous solution of ethanol was used as a solvent for HP-${\beta}$-CD, the HP-${\beta}$-CD particles were found to be spherical in shape and to become larger as the water content increased. It was confirmed that the micronization of HP-${\beta}$-CD using the ASES process could enhance the inclusion efficiency of ibuprofen/HP-${\beta}$-CD complexes significantly.

Manufacturing process of Ti-6Al-4V alloy billet was investigated with FEM simulation and experimental analysis. Before the breakdown process of Ti-6Al-4V alloy ingot, FEM simulation for the breakdown processes of Ti-6Al-4V alloy ingot was used to calculate the forging load and state variables such as strain, strain rate and temperature. In order to breakdown the ingot structure and make an equiaxed structure billet, two different processes were employed for a VAR/VAR processed Ti-6Al-4V alloy ingot. Firstly, the ingot was cogged in single-phase $\beta$ field at the temperature of $1,100^{\circ}C$. In the process, the coarse and inhomogeneous structure developed by the double melting process was broken down. The second breakdown was performed by upsetting and cogging processes in $\alpha+\beta$ phase field to obtain the microstructure of fine equixed $\alpha$ structure in the matrix of transformed $\beta$. Finally, the mechanical properties of Ti-6Al-4V alloy billet made in this work were compared with those of other billet and ring product.

In the proportional hazard model with the beta process prior, the posterior computation with the discrete approximation is considered. The time period of interest is partitioned by small intervals. On each partitioning interval, the likelihood is approximated by that of a binomial experiment and the beta process prior is by a beta distribution. Consequently, the posterior is approximated by that of many independent binomial model with beta priors. The analysis of the leukemia remission data is given as an example. It is illustrated that the length of the partitioning interval affects the posterior and one needs to be careful in choosing it.

The chemical constituents of Kyllinga brevifolia Rottb. var. leiolepsis Hara (Cyperaceae) were studied. From the chloroform and n-butanol soluble fractions, five compounds were isolated by chromatographic purification process. They were identified as ${\beta}-sitostenone$, ergosterol peroxide, ${\beta}-sitosterol$, ${\beta}-sitosteryl$-3-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyanoside and vitexin, respectively. This is the first report of the identification of ${\beta}-sitostenone$, ergosterol peroxide from Cyperaceae.
