When paper which was applied as insulation in oil-filled transformer was aged by thermal, its electrical, mechanical and chemical characteristics were changed and deteriorated. Therefore operating temperature was more higher, damage of paper was more quicker. Insulating paper which was generally made with cellulose was degraded, polymer of long length chain was decomposed as a monomer and CO, $CO_2$ gas and/or by-product such as furfural was produced from paper at the same time. In according with detection these gas and furfural by dissolved gas analysis(DGA) and high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC), we have investigated effects of CO, $CO_2$ gas and furfural on insulation of paper. Also we have analyzed for correlation between furfural and CO, $CO_2$ gas using linear regression method that was known as useful, credible statistical analysis.

Emissions of CO₂ occur during the production of cement manufacturing process. During the production of clinker, limestone is mainly calcium carbonate, is heated to produce lime and CO₂ as a by-product. It has a major problem, CO₂ uptake is not considered in concrete carbonation, just focus in CO₂ emission. This study is to develop a simulation model for CO₂ uptakes in concrete structures based on carbonation reduction coefficient considering finishing materials. CO₂ uptakes unit of concrete cubic meter is calculated by CO₂ emissions unit of concrete materials and usage of concrete materials in mix proportion. From the simulation result, CO₂ uptake ratios is 2.04 percent in carbonation models of concrete structure during 40 years.

Carbon dioxide ($CO_2$) and methane (CH$_4$) are two major greenhouse Bases. $CO_2$is a stack gas of many industrial processes and the main product of the hydrocarbon combustion. There is recent research interest on the synthesis gas (syngas) formation from $CO_2$ and CH$_4$, via the following reaction: CH$_4$+$CO_2$longrightarrow 2H$_2$+$CO_2$, in order to reduce the greenhouse effects and to synthesize various chemicals, Preliminary experiments were conducted on the conversion of $CO_2$ and CH$_4$ to syngas by making use of a microwave plasma torch at atmospheric pressure. Conversion rates of $CO_2$and CH$_4$ to hydrogen (H$_2$), carbon monoxide (CO) and higher hydrocarbons were investigated using Gas Chromatography (GC) and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR). The experimental data indicate that the main products were H$_2$, CO and small amount of higher hydrocarbons, such as ethylene (C$_2$H$_4$).

The effect of fermented soybean culture of Bacillus subtilis MORI mixed with mulberry leaves on the lowering the levels of blood glucose and cholesterol was examined using neonatal streptozotocin-induced diabetic (n-STZ) rats. B. subtilis MORI produces 1-deoxynojirimycin (DNJ), an $\alpha$-glucosidase inhibitor. The content of DNJ of soybean fermented culture mixed with mulberry was higher (4.1$\pm$0.0 mg/g dry base) than that (1.5$\pm$0.0 mg/g) of mulberry. The concentration of 50% inhibition (IC50) against rat intestinal $\alpha$-glucosidase of soybean fermented culture mixed with mulberry was $5.6{\pm}0.1{\mu}g$/mL and that of mulberry was $17.0{\pm}0.5{\mu}g$/mL. Experimental groups of diabetic rats were randomly assigned to normal control group (NC group), diabetic control group (DC group) and three diabetic groups fed with DNJ food product. One of the three diabetic groups was M group (60 mg DNJ food product/kg) (DNJ food product containing 30% mulberry) and the other two were MM-60 group (60 mg/kg) and MM-120 group (120 mg/kg) (DNJ-fortified food product containing 30% fermented soybean culture mixed with mulberry leaves). The glucose in serum was significantly decreased in the MM-60 and MM-120 groups fed with DNJ-fortified food product for 4 weeks, compared with DC group. Total cholesterol and triglyceride in serum were also lower in MM-60 and MM-120 groups than the DC group. These results support that the fermented soybean culture of B. subtilis MORI mixed with mulberry leaves improved the metabolism of blood glucose and lipid in the n-STZ rat model.

The effects of some additives (black liquor, NaOH, water and wood) on the conversion of coal and product were investigated in the lab-scale, high pressure reacting system around 375$^{\circ}C$. The addition of black liquor enhances the coal conversion yield about 38.6%, which is mainly due to NaOH in black liquor. Also, sulfur of the black liquor in coal liquefaction process evolved hydrogen sulfide, which causes the odor problem. Addition of water in coal liquefaction increased CO$_2$content in the gas phase, and low boiling range components in liquid products. Coprocessing of wood and coal at 400$^{\circ}C$ increased yield of liquid product about 8%, but higher temperature above 400$^{\circ}C$ reduced liquid product due to increase of gas products.

We have proposed a transflective liquid crystal display (LCD) driven by the fringe field using a liquid crystal (LC) with a negative dielectric anisotropy. The device used different twist angles of the liquid crystals (LC) in the transmissive (T) and the reflective (R) regions when voltage is applied. With the optimization of the pixel electrode width and the distance between them, the LC directors in the R- and T-regions can be rotated by about $22.5^{\circ}$ and $45^{\circ}$ on an average, respectively. As a result, a high image quality transflective LCD with a single gap, a single gamma, and a wide viewing angle characteristics in both the R- and T- regions can be realized.

We investigated the property of formation of mono-vesicle(designated nano-some) with using of the combined co-emulsifiers and phospholipid. Nano-some was prepared with hydrogenated lecithin(HL) and diethanolamine cetyl phosphate(DEA-CP) by swelling reaction. Kojic acid and kojic dipalmitate could be made stabilization by nano-some system using microfluidizer(MF). Nano-some has a good affinity to skin by means of this system. The composition was compounded by 2% of hydrogenated lecithin (phosphatidyl choline contained with 75%, 0.5% of DEA-CP and 0.5% of diglyceryl dioleate (DGDO). To make nano-some, several conditions of MF have to be considered as follows. The optimum pH was 6.0. The pressure was 10,000psi and passage temperature was at $306^{\circ}C$. The nano-some base was passed to homogenize continually 3 times through MF. The Particle size distributions of the vesicles were with in $57{\sim}75.7nm$(mean 66nm) by measuring the Zetasizer-3000. Zeta potential of vesicles with 3 times passage through MF was -24.8mV. Formations for nano-some vesicle certificated photograph by scanning electric magnification (SEM). Stability of nano-some was very good for 6months. The turbidity was very good transparency compared nano-some with liposome. It was formed the mono vesicle in the opposite direction to be formed the multi-lamellar vesicle of liposome.

To increase the solubility of sibutramine freebase, the solid dispersion was prepared using a fluid-bed granulator. The solid dispersion containing sibutramine freebase was characterized by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and powder X-ray diffraction (XRD). After filling the sibutramine solid dispersion in the gelatin hard capsule, we performed in vitro dissolution test, the stability test under accelerated conditions and pharmacokinetic study in beagle dogs. The DSC and XRD data showed that sibutramine solid dispersion would be amorphous state. The dissolution rate of sibutramine solid dispersion was significantly increased about 70% than sibutramine freebase. The stability of sibutramine solid dispersion capsules was equivalent or above to commercial product of sibutramine. In beagle dogs, the sibutramine solid dispersion showed equivalent pharmacokinetic behavior with commercial product of sibutramine hydrochloride. In conclusion, the solid dispersion system provided a possible way to overcome the low solubility of sibutramine freebase, and the sibutramine solid dispersion can be a bioequivalent with the commercial product in humans.

Since Chrysler Motor Co. had experienced the digital development system in the beginning of 1990's, most of leading automobile companies are trying to apply a digital information system for their own business process reengineering based upon concurrent engineering system from product planning phase. This is called as virtual DMU(Digital Mock-Up) system instead of the traditional PMU(Physical Mock-Up) system. By using the virtual prototype, all of the design requirements and system specifications can be checked, changed and optimized more quickly and more efficiently. This paper consists of five chapters for the DMU information system. In the 1$^{st}$ chapter, the principle of digital design system is suggested by using four basic modules such as product design module, process design module, manufacturing system design module and central control module. The basic scheme of DMU is introduced with the benefits of application in the chapter 2. In the chapter 3, a digital design process of new car development is explained with the detailed DMU design and design review processes. In the chapter 4, the practical DMU manufacturing techniques and applications are introduced as CAD/CAM analyses, DPA(Digital Pre-Assembly)reviews for development, production, operation and maintenance phases, digital tolerance analyses and digital factory analyses for assembling line simulation, automated robot welding processes, production jig ＆ fixtures and painting process simulation. Finally, the activities of digital design support; CAS-styling, CAE-engineering and CAT-testing are summarized for design optimization in the chapter 5. As today's automobile manufactures and related business organizations are struggling to compete in the global marketplace, they are concentrating on efficient use of DMU information system to reduce the new car development cost, to have shorten the delivery schedule and to improve product design quality. To meet the demand of those automobile industries on digital information systems, the CALS(Computer aided Acquisition and Logistics Support) and EC(Electronic Commerce)initiative has been focused as a dominant philosophy in defense ＆ commercial industries, specially automobile industries.s.

Ceramic Injection Molding (CIM) is one of wide used processes in industry field and the applications are gradually being expanded to parts of medical and electric devices. In this study, the CIM process were analyzed with FEM and process parameters were studied and analyzed the effect on product quality. The shape of simple flat plate was compared to the shapes with the hole, with the round corner portion or with the side wall portion. If there are holes then the hole around the uneven density distribution and the defects such as weld lines could be occurred. The Large radius of the corners of the product give good formability and fluidity. Not only the shape parameters of product but also the process parameters during CIM are studied. The simulation results showed that the process parameters of temperature, initial fractions and velocity are important design parameters to improve the quality of products.
