In this paper we introduced a new score generating function for the rank dispersion function in a multiple linear model. Based on the new score function, we derived the asymptotic relative efficiency, ARE(11, rs), of our score function with respect to the Wilcoxon scores for the generalized F distributions which show very flexible distributions with a variety of shape and tail behaviors. We thoroughly explored the selection of r and s of our new score function that provides improvement over the Wilcoxon scores.

Simvastatin is an inhibitor of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase, which catalyzes the conversion of HMG-CoA to mevalonate, an early and rate-limiting step in the biosynthesis of cholesterol. Simvastatin has good permeability, but it also has low solubility (BCS class II), which reduces its bioavailability. To overcome this problem, a solid dispersion is formed using a spray-dryer with polymeric material carrier to potentially enhance the dissolution rate and extend drug absorption. As carriers for solid dispersion, Gelucire$^{(R)}$44/14 and Gelucire$^{(R)}$ 50/13 are semisolid excipients that greatly improve the bioavailability of poorly-soluble drugs. To avoid any toxic effects of an organic solvent, we used aqueous medium to melt Tween$^{(R)}$ 80 and distilled water. The structural behaviors of the raw materials and the solid dispersion were analyzed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The DSC and PXRD data indicated that the crystalline structure of simvastatin was transformed to an amorphous structure through solid dispersion. Then, solid dispersion-based tablets containing 20 mg simvastatin were prepared with excipients. Dissolution tests were performed in distilled water and artificial intestinal fluid using the USP paddle II method. Compared with that of the commercial tablet (Zocor$^{(R)}$ 20 mg), the release of simvastatin from solid dispersion based-tablet was more efficient. Although the stability study is not complete, this solid dispersion system is expected to deliver poorly water-soluble drugs with enhanced bioavailability and less toxicity.

The present work investigated the dispersion behavior of $Y_2O_3$ particles into AISI 316L SS manufactured using laser cladding technology. The starting particles were produced by high energy ball milling in 10 min for prealloying, which has a trapping effect and homogeneous dispersion of $Y_2O_3$ particles, followed by laser cladding using $CO_2$ laser source. The phase and crystal structures of the cladded alloys were examined by XRD, and the cross section was characterized using SEM. The detailed microstructure was also studied through FE-TEM. The results clearly indicated that as the amount of $Y_2O_3$ increased, micro-sized defects consisted of coarse $Y_2O_3$ were increased. It was also revealed that homogeneously distributed spherical precipitates were amorphous silicon oxides containing yttrium. This study represents much to a new technology for the manufacture and maintenance of ODS alloys.

This research mainly focuses on the transport and dispersion of chemical agent plume according to the Lagrangian Puff Model and Lagrangian Particle Model of NBC_RAMS(Nuclear, Biological, Chemical Reporting And Modeling S/W System). NBC_RAMS was developed with the purposes of estimating the fate of Chemical, Biological, and Radioactive(CBR) agent plumes and evaluating damages in the Republic of Korea. First, it calculates the local weather pattern, i.e. wind speed, wind direction, and temperature, by considering the effects of land uses and topography. The plume behaviors are calculated by adopting the Lagrangian Puff Model(LPFM) or Lagrangian Particle Model(LPTM). In this research, we assumed a virtual chemical agent exposure event in a stable atmospheric condition during the summer season. The plume behaviors were estimated by both LPFM and LPTM on the used area(urbanized and dry area) and the agricultural land. The higher heat flux in the used area led to stronger winds and further downward movement moving of the chemical agent than the farmland. The lateral dispersion of the chemical plume was emphasized in the Lagrangian Puff Model because it adopted Gaussian distribution.

Synthesized monocrystalline nanodiamond (nD) particles are heat-treated at various temperatures to produce highly structured diamond crystals. The heat-treated nDs show different weight loss ratios during thermogravimetric analysis. The crystallinities of the heat-treated nDs are analyzed using Raman spectroscopy. The average particle sizes of the heat-treated nDs are measured by a dynamic light scattering (DLS) system and direct imaging observation methods. Moreover, individual dispersion behaviors of the heat-treated nD particles are investigated based on ultrasonic dispersion methods. The average particle sizes of the dispersed nDs according to the two different measurement methods show very similar size distributions. Thus, it is possible to produce highly crystallized nD powder particles by a heat-treatment process, and the nD particles are relatively easy to disperse individually without any dispersant. The heat-treated nDs can lead to potential applications such as in nanocomposites, quantum dots, and biomedical materials.

The effect of physicochemical properties of organic solvent and dispersant among organic solvent dispersant binder and plasticizer which are used as processing additives in MLCC fabrication process on the dispersion of BaTiO3 was studied. The steric and electrostatic stabilization mechanisms in dispersion of BaTiO3 in organic media were evaluated respectively. The sttability of BaTiO3 achieved bysteric stabilization was dependent on the fraction of surface coverage of dispersant adsorption on BaTiO3. The electrostatic repulsive forces of BaTiO3 particles dispersed in orgainc media was found to be appreciabley great and dependent mainly on the kinds of organic solvent used. The mechanism affecting the stability of BaTiO3 was studied by the method of rheologi-cal behaviors of BaTiO3 suspension.

The present paper aims to set forth a two-dimensional theory for the dynamics of plates that is valid over a large range of excitation. To construct a dynamic plate theory within the long-wavelength approximation, two dimensional-reduction procedures must be used for analyzing the low- and high-frequency behaviors under the dynamic variational-asymptotic method. Moreover, a separate and logically independent step for the short-wavelength regime is introduced into the present approach to avoid violation of the positive definiteness of the derived energy functional and to facilitate qualitative description of the three-dimensional dispersion curve in the short-wavelength regime. Two examples are presented to demonstrate the capabilities and accuracy of all of the formulas derived herein by using various dispersion curves through comparison with the three-dimensional finite element method.

Many types of optical plastic films are essential in optoelectronics display unit fabrication and it is important to develop high precision laser cutting methods of optical films with extremely low level of film surface contamination by fume particles. This study investigates the effects of suction and blowing air motions with air flow misalignment in removing fume particles from laser cut line by employing random particle trajectory simulation and probabilistic particle generation model. The computational results show fume particle dispersion behaviors on optical film under suction and blowing air flow conditions. It is found that suction air flow motion is more advantageous to blowing air motion in reducing film surface contamination outside designated target margin from laser cut line. While air flow misalignment adversely affects particle dispersion in blowing air flows, its effects become much more complicated in suction air flows by showing different particle dispersion patterns around laser cut line. It is required to have more careful air flow alignment in fume particle removal under suction air flow conditions.

Acrylonitrile butadiene rubber(NBR)의 접착력 및 가공성을 향상시키기 위한 연구를 하였다. 최상의 조건을 선별하기 위해서 NBR의 acrylonitrile(ACN) 함량에 따른 접착물성 및 가공성을 관찰하였다. 무늬 점도, 충전제, 가소제 및 가교제가 접착력에 미치는 영향도 조사하였다. NBR의 ACN 함량은 NBR sealing에서 접착거동 및 가공성에 큰 영향을 미침을 알 수가 있었다. 최상의 혼합 조건을 알기 위해서 분산도를 조사하였다. 분산도는 혼합순서, 시간 및 온도 등의 많은 인자들에 의해 영향을 받는 것이 확인되었다. 가교시스템은 황 가교시스템, 과산화물 가교시스템, 가교밀도 및 구조 등의 관찰로 연구하였다. 접착제의 변화는 건조 상태와 hexamine 함량 등과 같은 것으로부터 NBR과 접착제 사이의 관계를 연구하였다. 이 결과 접착 물성과 가공성은 ACN 함량 및 가교시스템에 따라 차이를 보였다.
