In recent years, research to machine large-surface micro-features has become important because of the light guide panel of a large-scale liquid crystal display and the bipolar plate of a high-capacity proton exchange membrane fuel cell. In this study, in order to realize the systematic design technology and performance improvements of an ultra-precision machine for machining the large-surface micro-features, a structural characteristic analysis was performed using its virtual prototype. The prototype consisted of gantry-type frame, hydrostatic feed mechanisms, linear motors, brushless DC servo motor, counterbalance mechanism, and so on. The loop stiffness was estimated from the relative displacement between the tool post and C-axis table, which was caused by a cutting force. Especially, the causes of structural stiffness deterioration were identified through the structural deformation analysis of sub-models.

Active oxygen species or free radicals are considered to cause extensive oxidative damage to biological macromolecules, which brings about a variety of diseases as well as aging. Electrolyzed reduced water(ERW) has been regarded as a ideal antioxidative agent in recent years. ERW is produced by passing a diluted salt solution through an electrolytic cell, within which the anode and cathode are separated by membrane. It can be produced reactive materials in ERW near the cathode during the electrolysis of water. ERW have the following advantages over other traditional cleaning agents: effective antioxidative agent, easy preparation, inexpensive, and environmentally friendly. The main advantage of ERW is its safety and antioxidative effect. ERW with strong reducing potential can be used to remove dirt and grease from items such as cutting boards and other kitchen utensils. The primary aim of this study is the activation mechanism of oxidation reduction potentials, ion conductivity, pH, and electrochemical properties with reactive materials in ERW.

The poliovirus Sabin 1 strain has features that make it a particularly attractive live recombinant mucosal vaccine vehicle. Sabin 1 cDNA was manipulated to have multiple cloning sites and a viral specific 3C-protease cutting site at the N-terminal end of the polyprotein. The gene for the N-terminal 169 amino acids of the HIV-1 p24 was cloned into the multiple cloning site of the manipulated Sabin cDNA. A recombinant progeny virus was produced from HeLa cells when it was transfected with the RNA synthesized from the p24-Sabin chimeric cDNA. The recombinant progeny virus expresses substantial amounts of the HIV-1 p24 protein, which was clearly detected in the infected cell lysates and culture supernatants in Western blot experiments with rabbit anti-p24 serum and AIDS patients' sera. Differing from the Mahoney strain, the recombinant Sabin 1 poliovirus maintained the foreign gene stably during the subsequent passages. Replication capacity was about 1 to 1.5 log lower than that of the wild-type Sabin 1. Other physicochemical stability characteristics of the recombinant virus were similar to that of the wild-type Sabin 1. These results suggest that the manipulated Sabin 1 poliovirus can be used as a live viral vaccine vector for the development of mucosal vaccines.

Electrolytic in-process dressing (ELID) grinding is a new technique for achieving a nanoscale surface finish on hard and brittle materials such as optical glass and ceramics. This process applies an electrochemical dressing on the metal-bonded diamond wheels to ensure constant protrusion of sharp cutting grits throughout the grinding cycle. In conventional ELID grinding, a constant source of pulsed DC power is supplied to the ELID cell, but a feedback mechanism is necessary to control the dressing power and obtain better performance. In this study, we propose a new closed-loop wheel dressing technique for grinding wheel truing that addresses the efficient correction of eccentric wheel rotation and the nonuniformity in the grinding wheel profile. The technique relies on an iterative control algorithm for the ELID power supply. An inductive sensor is used to measure the wheel profile based on the gap between the sensor head and wheel edge, and this is used as the feedback signal to control the pulse width of the power supply. We discuss the detailed mathematical design of the control algorithm and provide simulation results that were confirmed experimentally.

This study was intended to observe the changes of pectic substances and enzyme activities, texture, microstructure of anchovy added kimchi during fermentation for 4 weeks at 4$^{\circ}C$. Content of alcohol insoluble solid(AIS) and HCl soluble pectin(HClSP) were decreased, whereas content of hot water soluble pectin(HWSP) was increased during fermentation. Content of HClSP was higher and HWSP was lower in anchovy added kimchi than control. Activity of pectinesterase(PE) was decreased, whereas activity of polygalacturonase(PG) was increased during fermentation. In anchovy added kimchi, PG activity was lower than control. Changes in microstructure of Chinese cabbage and kimchi during fermentation was lower than control. Changes in microstructure of Chinese cabbage and kimchi during fermentation was observed ; in the raw cabbage, parenchyma cells, intercellular space and middle lamella were clearly shown. But in salted cabbage, middle lamella became separated. In the late stage of fermentation, parenchyma cell walls were wrinkled and collapsed. Puncture forces of kimchi were decreased, whereas cutting forces of kimchi were increased as fermentation proceeded. The firmness was slightly higher in anchovy added kimchi than control at the late stage fermentation, which may be explained by the PG activity.

This study considers the feasibility of using the low cost assembled separator. The graphite plate has been widely used as the separator in the field of PEMFCs(Polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell) industry because of its excellent material properties such as good corrosion resistance, good electrical conductance and so on. However, there are some problems for the commercialization due to its poor cost effectiveness for the large volume manufacturing and lack of mechanical strength. From this respect, this study has focused on the manufacturing technology in order to reduce the price for the commercialization of separator. This study also shows that the assembled separator of the suggested structure, which is composed of grafoil and PC(PolyCarbonate) materials, could be manufactured at low cost enough for the mass production. The flow fields produced by cutting foils and the base plates of the separators were simply made by mechanical work.

During the cut and dismantling process of HANARO irradiated instrumented capsule(03M-06U), a little different phenomenon like a jamming was observed and occurred. So to release jamming between outer pipe and inner thermal media, the outer pipe will be cut piece by piece by capsule cutting machine installed in M2 hot cell until the outer pipe was eliminated or reduced as we could. It is assumed that this kind of problem was occurred following reasons: 1) This capsule has probably a problem during manufacturing process at shop before irradiation. 2) The gap between outer pipe and thermal media is not enough to meet design criteria for thermal expansion during irradiation at HANARO

To develop a value-added low-salt fermented seafood with a long shelf-life, we prepared seasoned low-salt fermented Omandungi Styela plicata supplemented with fermentation alcohol (SOE). The SOE was produced by washing and dewatering shelled Omandungi, followed by cutting and salting for 24 h at 0±1℃. The salted Omandungi was seasoned and fermented with garlic, ginger, monosodium glutamate, red pepper, sesame, sorbitol, and sugar, for 7-8 days at 0±1℃. After adding 3-5% fermentation alcohol, the seasoned fermented Omandungi was packed in a polyester container. The salinity, volatile basic nitrogen content, and viable cell count of SOE were 4.8%, 22.1-22.2 mg/100 g, and (1.2-1.9)×10³ CFU/g, respectively. Compared with the control, addition of 3-5% fermentation alcohol inhibited the decrease in freshness, texture degradation, and growth of residual bacteria. Additionally, the SOE showed good storage stability and organoleptic qualities when stored at 4±1℃ for 40 days. The total amino acid content of SOE was 2,186.0 mg/100 g, mainly comprising glutamic acid, aspartic acid, lysine, and phenylalanine. The free amino acid content was 189.0 mg/100 g, and mainly included taurine, glutamic acid, methionine, alanine, and proline.

This paper presents the construction results and design of the UNIST Reactor Innovation platform for small modular reactors as a versatile testbed for exploring innovative technologies. The platform uses simulant fluids to simulate the thermal-hydraulic behavior of a reference small modular reactor design, allowing for cost-effective design modifications. Scaling analysis results for single and two-phase natural circulation flows are outlined based on the three-level scaling methodology. The platform's capability to simulate natural circulation behavior was validated through performance calculations using the 1-D system thermal-hydraulic code-based calculation. The strategies for evaluating cutting-edge technologies, such as the integration of a solid oxide electrolysis cell for hydrogen production into a small modular reactor, are presented. To overcome experimental limitations, the hardware-in-the-loop technique is proposed as an alternative, enabling real-time simulation of physical phenomena that cannot be implemented within the experimental facility's hardware. Overall, the proposed versatile innovation platform is expected to provide valuable insights for advancing research in the field of small modular reactors and nuclear-based hydrogen production.
