Using high voltage electric fields induced by high voltage AC (10-12 kV/cm, 20 kHz) and pulsed (20-30 kV/cm, 40 Hz) electric field generator as a semipermanent and environment-friendly disinfecting apparatus, the disinfection effect of coliform group in the effluent of sewage plant was investigated. The effects of electric field strength, treatment time, discharge area of a discharge tube, water quality factors (electric conductivity, pH and SS) on its death rate were examined. The death rate of coliform group was increased with increasing electric field strength and treatment time. For AC and pulsed electric field generator, the critical electric field strength was 6 kV/cm and 2 kV/cm, respectively, and the critical treatment time was 5 min and 2 min, respectively, regardless of electric field strength. Comparing the death rate of coliform group by AC and pulsed electric fields used in this study, its death rate was higher for the latter than the former, but did not increase linearly with increasing electric field strength. The results obtained for the effects of discharge area, electric conductivity, pH and SS on the death rate of coliform group using AC electric field (12 kV/cm, 20 kHz) were as follows: its death rate showed the trend to increase linearly with increasing discharge area; for the effect of electric conductivity, its death rate was increased with increasing electric conductivity, regardless of ionic species, increased with increasing cationic valency, but was similar between the same cationic valency; the pH $5{\sim}9$ used in this study did not affect its death rate; its death rate was decreased with increasing SS concentration.

In order to prepare for weakening of the productivity of agriculture due to serious climate change, the researches on promoting the growth of plant are required. Although the method of using magnetic field for improving the growth of plant was introduced, the effective method of imposing the field on the plant have yet to be studied thoroughly in the literatures. In this paper, we investigated the effects of static magnetic field on the growth and the early seed germination of radish sprouts according to the strength, direction of excitation and the expose time of the magnetic field, and present the effective method of imposing magnetic fields. From the measurements, it was found that the radish sprouts exposed in the field shows a rapid germination of about 3~4 days than those which had no field, and in order to the effective growth, the strength of the magnetic field should be properly selected, and the excitation direction of magnetic field has little effect on the radish sprouts growth.

Identification of noise sources, their locations and strengths, have been taken great attention. The method that can identify noise sources normally assumes that noise sources are located at a free field. However, the sound in a reverberant field consists of that coming directly from the source plus sound reflected or scattered by the walls or objects in the field. In contrast to the exterior sound field, reflections are added to sound field. Therefore, we have to consider the reverberation effect on the source identification method. The main objective of this paper is to identify noise source in the reverberant field. At fist, we try to identify noise sources in a rigid wall enclosure using the spherical beamforming method. In many case of practical interest, the wall has an admittance so that complex reflection process occurred. In this paper, we assumed the complex reverberant field in the enclosure to be the sum of plane waves with random incidence and magnitude. Then the effects of reverberant field at interior source identification have been studied theoretically as well as experimentally

The effects on the characteristics of 20-W fluorescent lamp were studied when applying magnetic field to its positive column. First, when the direction of the magnetic field is axial, i.e., along the lamp, if the magnitude of the field is stronger than the critical field, lamp voltage is increased, lamp current decreased, luminous flux increased, starting voltage decreased, as increasing the applied magnetic field. At the magnetic flux density is 130 gauss, luminous flux is increased to about 6 percents and starting voltage is increased to about 45 percents. Second, when the direction of the magnetic field is transverse to the lamp axis, as increasing the applied magnetic field, lamp voltage is increased, lamp current decreased, luminous flux increased and starting voltage is nearly constant, but the rates of increase or decrease of this case is different from those of the first. At the magnetic flux density is 300 gauss, luminous flux is increased about 45 percents. In both cases, electric power dissipated by lamps is the same as that of the lamp which magnetic field is not applied to.

In this study, the porothermoelastic problem with the effect of the magnetic field and initial stress was investigated. We applied normal mode analysis to solve the resulting non-dimensional coupled equations. Numerical results for the displacements, temperature distribution, pore pressure, stresses, induced electric field and induced magnetic field distributions are presented graphically and discussed. The medium deformed because of thermal shock and due to the application of the magnetic field, there result an induced magnetic and an induced electric field in the medium. Numerical analyses are given graphically on the square (2D) and cubic (3D) domains to illustrate the effects of the porosity parameter, magnetic field and initial stress parameter on the physical variables.

By introducing an organic interlayer on the Parylene C dielectric surface, the electrical device performances and the operating stabilities of organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) were improved. To achieve this goal, hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS) and octadecyltrichlorosilane (ODTS), as the organic interlayer materials, were used to control the surface energy of the Parylene C dielectrics. For the bare case used with the pristine Parylene C dielectrics, the field-effect mobility (μ_FET) and threshold voltage (V_th) of dinaphtho[2,3-b:2',3'-f ]thieno[3,2-b]- thiophene (DNTT) FET devices were measured at 0.12 cm²V^-1s^-1 and - 5.23 V, respectively. On the other hand, the OFET devices with HMDS- and ODTS-modified cases showed the improved μ_FET values of 0.32 and 0.34 cm²V^-1s^-1, respectively. More important point is that the μ_FET and V_th of the DNTT FET device with the ODTS-modified Parylene C dielectric presented the smallest changes during a repeated measurement of 1000 times, implying that it has the most stable operating stability. The results could be meaned that the organic interlayer, especially ODTS, effectively covers the Parylene C dielectric surface with alkyl chains and reduces the charge trapping at the interface region between active layer and dielectric, thereby improving the electrical operating stability.

A full-scale field test was conducted to investigate the arching effect of an embankment pile. The arching effect calculated from the test results was compared with theoretical values. Measurements obtained from a load cell and an earth pressure cell during the field test reflected the arching effect of the embankment pile well. The arching effect measured by load cells for an embankment height of 3m or less was smaller than the theoretical value with the assumption of plain strain.The measured effect for a height of 4 m or more was larger than the theoretical value. In contrast to the consistent decrease of the theoretical arching effect, the arching effect obtained from the field test shows continually increasing trends. The arching effects calculated from the earth pressure cells were greater than those from the theory under the plain strain assumption, but the trend was similar to the theoretical one. The arching effects measured by the earth pressure cells an embankment heights of 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 m were 1.05, 1.23, 1.29, 1.28, and 1.29 times greater than those from the theory under the assumption of plain strain. The arching effects from the field test were much greater than those from the theory under the installation of a pile grid.

Exchange bias effect of a various layered thin films were studied by FMR measurment. In plane angular dependence of a resonance field distribution which measured by FMR was analysed as a combined effect of an unidirectional anisotropy and an uniaxial anisotropy. Exchange biased NiFe/IrMn, IrMn/NiFe/IrMn, and NiFe/IrMn/CoFe thin films showed larger unidirectional anisotropy field and uniaxial anisotropy field with compared to that of an unbiased NiFe single thin film. In case of NiFe/Cu/IrMn, the film with thick Cu layer exhibited a similar trend to the unbiased NiFe thin film. NiFe/IrMn/CoFe thin film showed two resonance field distribution due to different ferromagnetic layers. In additon to the resonance field, the line width was also analysed with related to exchange bias effect.
