A study was carried out to observe the 1% aqueous safranine solution flow speed in longitudinal and radial directions of softwood G. biloba, ring-porous wood A. altissima, and diffuse- porouswood D. kaki. In radial direction, ray cells and in longitudinal direction tracheids, vessel and wood fiber were considered for the measurement of liquid penetration speed at less than 12% moisture contents (MC). The length, lumen diameter, pit diameter, end wall pit diameter and the numbers of end wall pits determined for the flow rate. The liquid flow in the those cells was captured via video and the capillary flow rate in the ones were measured. Vessel in hardwood species and tracheids in softwood was found to facilitate prime role in longitudinal penetration. Radial flow speed was found highest in ray parenchyma of G. biloba. Anatomical features like the length and diameter, end-wall pit numbers of ray parenchyma were found also responsible fluid flow differences. On the other hand, vessel and fiber structure affected the longitudinal flow of liquids. Therefore, the average liquid penetration depth in longitudinal tracheids of G. biloba was found the highest among all cells considered in D. kaki and A. altissima.

The structural changes in the pericarp of Panax ginseng fruit cells are studied during maturation periods. The pericarp can be divided into exocarp, mesocarp and endocarp. The exocarp consists of one layer of epidermal cells which is covered by a thin cuticle and hypodermal cells. A central vacuole and peripheral cytoplasm are observed in the exocarp and mesocarp. Also, irregular wall arrangement are observed during the differentiation. The endocarp is clearly marked off from the others by secondaw wall thickening and lignification. Secretory materials produced by the Golgi complex and rough endoplasmic reticulum vesicles appear to accumulated in the cell wall. These secretory materials are considered major components of the seed coat during the differentiation.

An electron microscopic study has been made of the effects of change of cell structure of Escherichia coli treated with several disinfectants. The alterations observed as follows: 1. Nucleoid, cytoplasm which contain ribosomes and cell wall appeared to be composed of a parallel triple. layered membrane can observed in control Escherichia coli. 2. The nuclear material was no longer demonstrable in its normal sites. The cytoplasm lost its granularity, became homogeneous and disruption of cell wall were observed by the treatment with 70% ethyl alcohol and 3% $H_2O_2$. 3. Aggregation of ribosomes and condensation of nuclear material were also observed by the treatment of 5% lysol solution and 1% dodecyl-diamino-ethyl-glycin-hydrochloride. 4. In autoclaved group, the each layer of cell wall was separated and destroyed in some sites where cytoplasm was extracted.

In this study, we developed a whole cardiovascular system model combined with a Laplace heart based on the numerical cardiac cell model and a detailed arterial network structure. The present model incorporates the Laplace heart model and pulmonary model using the lumped parameter model with the distributed arterial system model. The Laplace heart plays a role of the pump consisted of the atrium and ventricle. We applied a cellular contraction model modulated by calcium concentration and action potential in the single cell. The numerical arterial model is based upon a numerical solution of the one-dimensional momentum equations and continuity equation of flow and vessel wall motion in a geometrically accurate branching network of the arterial system including energy losses at bifurcations. For validation of the present method, the computed pressure waves are compared with the existing experimental observations. Using the cell-system-arterial network combined model, the pathophysiological events from cells to arterial network are delineated.

Protoplast releasing mechanisms from Trichoderma koningii, fine structures of the released protoplsts, and their regeneration mode were studied by scanning and transmission electron microscopy. Two types of protoplast releasing mechanisms were observed. In one mechanism, cytoplasm emerged through a cell wall pore developed by cell lytic enzymes and formed a spherical protoplast. In the other mechanism, as the cell wall became progressively thinner, the inner cytoplasm partially rounded to form nonspherical bodies which became spherical protoplasts after being released into the enzyme solution. But, these two types of protoplast releasing mechanisms did not seem to be. mutually exclusive but could occur on the same mycelium simultaneously. And it appeared that cytoplasm which did not become a protoplast by the first mechanism could from a protoplast by the second mechanism. The preparations contained two types of protoplasts, released from different sites of the mycelia. Those released from younger mycelia had dense cytoplasm and small vesicles. Those released from the older mycelia had less dense cytoplasm and larger vacuoles. In the case of regeneration, before producing normal mycelia, most of the protoplasts assumed aberrant tube and yeast-like-forms. Normal mycelia were produced at the end of the yeastlike-forms and sometimes in the middle of the aberrant tube.

A time-iterative compressible Navier-Stokes code is developed to analyze the flowfield of a two-dimensional ejector nozzle system. A parametric study has been made for two controlling parameters, duct to nozzle area ratio and nozzle pressure ratio. Results show that there is an optimum area ratio for an efficient pumping of secondary flow. At high area ratios, a freestream flow directly passes through the mixing duct without giving adequate pumping. While at low area ratios, jet boundary is acting as a blockage to incoming flow. The nozzle pressure ratio variation shows that the pumping rate increases as the pressure ratio increases provided there is no interaction between the shroud wall and the shock cell structure.

The fiber wall filling(FWF) technology, which is based on Precipitatin of fillers in the micropores of the cell wall structure of never-dried chemical pulp fiber, has been developed to improve filling and loading process in papermaking. In presenting FWF technique here, micropores of pulp fiber are first impregnated with an ionic solution of water soluble salt and consecutively impregnated with the second salt solution. This procedure generates an insoluble precipitate within the micropores of cell wall by chemical interaction of these two ionic salt solutions This is the first attempts to use FWF technology for the quality of waste paper grade which is recycled in papermaking, even though this FWF technology has been impressively improved for never-dried chemical pulp in filling and loading process of papermaking. The precipitated amount of CaCO$_3$ and SrCO$_3$ reached 5-6% and 4-5% of the waste paper weight respectively, which was measured by ash content of the burned waste paper fiber. On the other way the precipitated amounts of those materials impregnated into never-dried chemical pulp fiber have reached 17-18% and 16-18% respectively. The micropore loading technique gives optical and physical properties to the handsheets formed with celt-wall-filled fibers which are better than those handsheet properties resulting from conventional loading. The papers made from the cell-wall-filled pulps are stronger than those with the customary location of filler between the fibers.

The endosperm cells and the umbiliform layer of ginseng (Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer) seed are studied with light and electron microscope. Differentiated mitochondria, ER cisternae, proplastids and ribosomes are characteristically observed in the endosperm cells of matured seed. The cell inclusions contain the protein bodies and the spherosomes. Protein body contains, in proteinaceous matrix, globoids and crystalloids. Particularly the crystalloids have the lattice structure, and the formation of globoids is closely related with ER. Umbiliform layer has the positive reaction on alcian blue (pH 2.5) and the metachromasis on the toluidine blue. The umbiliform layer is formed by autolysis of endosperm cells, and composed of the deformated cell wall and the lipoprotein bodies. Particularly a part of the lipoprotein body and the fibrilar network structure have the positive reaction on acid phosphatase.

Rotating stall in vaneless diffusers of centrifugal compressor occurs in the diffuser wall due to flow separation at large inlet flow angle. For this reason, the critical inlet flow angles are suggested by several researchers. Beyond this critical angle, flow separates in the diffuser, and develops into rotating stall. This paper studied this critical flow angle. Rotating stall is measured through eight fast-response pressure transducers which are equally spaced around the circumference at the inlet and exit of a vaneless diffuser. Experiments are done from 20000rpm to 60000rpm for the diffuser stall. Two-cell structure which rotates at $6{\~}l0{\%}$ of impeller speed is fully developed at $20000{\~}40000rpm$, and three-cell structure which rotates at $7{\~}9{\%}$ of impeller speed is fully developed at $50000{\~}60000rpm$. This paper shows that the critical inlet flow angle is not constant but related with tip speed of impeller. As tip speed increases, so does the critical inlet flow angle.

An experimental study was performed for measuring velocity and turbulence intensity in a circular tube for Re= 10,000, 15,000 and 20,000, with swirl and without swirling flow. The velocity fields were measured using PIV techniques and swirl motion was produced by a tangential inlet condition. Some preliminary measurements indicated that over the first 4 diameter, two regions of flow reversal were set up (the so called 2-cell structure). At the highest Reynolds numbers, the maximum values of the measured axial velocity components had moved toward the test tube wall and produce more flow reversal at the conter of the tube. As the Reynolds number increased, the turbulence intensity of swilling flow at the tube inlet also increased.
