In this paper, we describe the design method of carbody structure with side-buffer. Recently railroad industry has a new interest with stability, fixed time, low environment pollution and mass transportation. Accidents have little on the railroad but railroad industry is trying to minimize carbody damage and passenger injury in case of accidents. So a side-buffer having anti-climber is applied to meet each special needs. Carbody with side-buffer is assembled with aluminum(6005A-T6) parts that are extruded. As the results of the study, it is showed that carbody with side-buffer has sufficient energy absorbtion about crashworthiness.

Baker's yeast(Saccharomyces cerevisiae) was used as a biocatalyst for eco-friendly indigo dyeing and the reducing power of yeast according to the alkaline solution type was compared. NaOH solution, lye, and buffer solution were used as alkaline solutions. The reducing power(K/S value, oxidation/reduction potential(ORP), pH) was monitored according to the elapsed time including the initiation of reduction, peak reduction, and the end of reduction. In all alkaline solutions, it was confirmed that yeast can be used reducing agent in indigo reduction dyeing. The pH stability and reducing power of buffer solution was better than that of NaOH alone. Although, pH and ORP stability of the reduction bath in lye were better than that of buffer solution, K/S value in buffer solution was higher compared to lye. The reducing power was different depending on the starting pH of the dye bath, and it was better when starting at pH 10.70 than at pH 11.30. Fastnesses to washing, rubbing, and light were relatively good with above rating 4. There was no significant difference in colorfastness depending on the type of alkaline solutions.

This paper gives the basic mechanical properties of indium-tin-oxide (ITO) films on polymer substrates which are exposed to externally and thermally induced bending force. By using modified Storney formula including triple layer structure and bulge test measuring the conductive changes of patterned ITO islands as a function of bending curvature, the mechanical stability of ITO films on polymer substrates was intensively investigated. The numerical analyses and experimental results show thermally and externally induced mechanical stresses in the films are responsible for the difference of thermal expansion between the ITO film and the substrate, and leer substrate material and its thickness, respectively. Therefore, a gradually ramped heating process and an organic buffer layer were employed to improve the mechanical stability, and then, the effects of the buffer layer were also quantified in terms of conductivity-strain variations. As a result, it is uncovered that a buffer layer is also a critical factor determining the magnitude of mechanical stress and the layer with the Young's modulus lower than a specific value can contribute to relieving the mechanical stress of the films.

Stabilization of liposomes against degradation by bile salts has been investigated in order to develop a liposomal model system for oral drug delivery. Two polysaccharides, amylopectin (AP) and chitin (CT), were employed to coat both empty liposomes and bromthymol blue (BTB)-encapsulated liposomes by adsorption-coating techniques. Turbidity changes and BTB-release characteristics in pH 5.6 buffer solutions with or without bile salts, sodium cholate and sodium glycocholate, were observed to compare the differences between uncoated liposomes and polysaccharide-coated liposomes. Initial turbidities of both uncoated and polysaccharide-coated liposomes in buffer solution were kept constant within 3% range during 4 hours of experiments. But they were decreased in a different manner in bile salts-containing buffer solutions, showing 10% or less decrease for polysaccharide-coated liposomes and 25% or more decrease for uncoated liposomes. BTB release from uncoated liposomes has been greatly increased upto 90% after 4 hours in bile salts-containing buffer solution, which is a clue for breakdown of liposomal vesicles. However, polysaccharide-coated liposomes showed the controlled-release pattern which is proportional to square-root of time, followed by around 50% release for the same time period. Consequently, it is possible to conclude that these polysaccharide-coated liposomes might be an available system for oral delivery of a drug which is unstable in gut environment.

The stability and efficiency of organic light emitting devices are the most critical problems to be solved. The devices based on tris-8-(hydroxyquinoline) aluminum ($Alq_3$) and N,N-diphenyl-N,N-bis(3-methylphenyl)-1, 1-biphenyl-4,4-diamine (TPD) were used to study the effects of buffer layers on their characteristics. We have investigated the characteristic effects of CuPc (copper phthalocyanine) and pentacene buffer layers on the device characteristics, the (5${\sim}$20 nm thick) CuPc layers and the (10${\sim}$20 nm thick) pentacene layers were deposited. Efficiency was slightly improved and the turn-on voltages of the devices with the buffer layers were observed to have lower values than those of the devices without the buffer layers. It is believed that this result is attributed to the improvement of hole injection capability through the buffer layers into hole transport layer (HTL). We have also studied the atomic force microscopic images of the TPD layers deposited on the buffer layer and the bare ITO.

In recent years, the tantalum nitride(TaN) thin-film has been developed for the electronic resistor and capacitor. In this papers, this study presents the surface profile and sheet-resistance property relationship of reactive-sputtered TaN thin film resistor processed by buffer of Ti and Cr on alumina substrate. The TCR properties of the TaN films were discussed in terms of reactive gas ratio, ratio of nitrogen, crystallization and thin films surface morphology due to annealing temperature. It is clear that the TaN thin-films resistor electrical properties are low TCR related with it's buffer layer condition. Ti buffer layer thin film resistor having a good thermal stability and lower TCR properties then Cr buffer expected for the application to the dielectric material of passive component.

벤토나이트 완충재의 열수거동 실험에서는 고준위폐기물처분장 완충재로 유력하게 고려되고 있는 국산 벤토나이트를 대상으로 열수특성을 규명하고, 또 그 결과를 바탕으로 KRS 처분환경에서 벤토나이트 완충재의 장기건전성을 평가하였다. 실험결과, 벤토나이트 완충재의 열수반응은 주 구성광물인 스멕타이트의 일라이트화를 통해 진행되었으며, 온도, $K^+$농도, pH는 이러한 일라이트화에 중요한 열수반응인자 역할을 하였다. KRS 처분환경에 대한 국산벤토나이트 완충재의 장기건전성을 분석한 결과, 정상상태에서는 벤토나이트 완충재가 오랜 기간 동안 방벽재기능을 유지하였지만, 보수적인 조건에서는 약 $5{\times}10^4$년이 경과했을 때 벤토나이트 완충재를 구성하는 스멕타이트의 50%이상이 일라이트로 전환되어 방벽재로서의 팽윤능력을 상실할 수 있음을 예상할 수 있었다.

We use both theoretical analysis and simulations to study the impact of crosspoint-queued (CQ) buffer size on CQ switch throughput and delay performance under different traffic models, input loads, and scheduling algorithms. In this paper, we present the following. 1) We prove the stability of CQ switch using any work-conserving scheduling algorithm. 2) We present an exact closed-form formula for the CQ switch throughput and a non-closed-form but convergent formula for its delay using static non-work-conserving random scheduling algorithms with any given buffer size under independent Bernoulli traffic. 3) We show that the above results can serve as a conservative guide on deciding the required buffer size in pure CQ switches using work-conserving algorithms such as the random scheduling, under independent Bernoulli traffic. 4) Furthermore, our simulation results under real-trace traffic show that simple round-robin and random work-conserving algorithms can achieve quite good throughput and delay performance with a feasible crosspoint buffer size. Our work reveals the impact of buffer size on the CQ switch performance and provides a theoretical guide on designing the buffer size in pure CQ switch, which is an important step toward building ultra-high-speed switch fabrics.

The stability of engineered barriers in high-level radioactive waste disposal systems can be influenced by the decay heat generated by the waste. This study focuses on the thermal analysis of various canister designs to effectively lower the maximum temperature of the engineered barrier. A numerical model was developed and employed to investigate the heat dissipation potential of copper rings placed across the buffer. Various canister designs incorporating copper rings were presented, and numerical analysis was performed to identify the design with the most significant temperature reduction effect. The results confirmed that the temperature of the buffer material was effectively lowered with an increase in the number of copper rings penetrating the buffer. Parametric studies were also conducted to analyze the impact of technical gaps, copper thickness, and collar height on the temperature reduction. The numerical model revealed that the presence of gaps between the components of the engineered barrier significantly increased the buffer temperature. Furthermore, the reduction in buffer temperature varied depending on the location of the gap and collar. The methods proposed in this study for reducing the buffer temperature hold promise for contributing to cost reduction in radioactive waste disposal.
