동충하초 Paecilomyces tenuipes C240의 균사체 배양과정에서 균사체 성장, 세포외 다당체 생산, 기질감소 속도를 표현할 수 있는 동력학적 모델을 제시하였다. 균사체 성장은 Logistic식을, 세포외 다당체 생산은 Luedeking-Piret 식을, 기질소모는 Luedeking-Piret 유사식을 각각 적용함으로써, 전체 균사체 배양과정을 예측할 수 있었다. 모델식에서 사용된 주요 kineti, constant들은 다음과 같다: 균사체의 최대 비성장속도${\mu}m,\;0.7281\;h^{-1};$; 다당체 생산에서의 growth-associated constant $(\alpha),\;0.1743g(g\;cells)^{-1}$; non-growth-associated constant $(\beta),\;0.0019g(g\;cells)^{-1}\;;$ maintenance coefficient ($(m_s),\;0.0572g\;(g\;cells)^{-1}$·5L 발효조에서 얻은 균사체 성장, 세포외 다당체 생산, 기질감소 속도자료들을 모델에서 예측한 결과와 비교한 결과 서로 잘 일치하는 것으로 보아, 본 연구에서 제안된 모델식은 이 동충하초 균사체 배양공정의 scale-up등의 프로세스 설계에 응용가능 할 것이며, 다른 종류의 동충하초 균사체 배양공정에도 적용가능 할 것으로 판단된다.

This paper deals with the effects of driving force and material properties on statistical distribution of fatigue crack growth rate (FCGR) for the friction stir welded joints of Al 7075-T651 aluminum plate. In this work, the statistical probability distribution of fatigue crack growth rate was analyzed by using our previous constant stress intensity factor range controlled fatigue crack growth test data. As far as this study are concerned, the statistical probability distribution of fatigue crack growth rate for the friction stir welded (FSWed) joints was found to evaluate the variability of fatigue crack growth rate for base metal (BM), heat affected zone (HAZ) and weld metal (WM) specimens. The probability distribution of fatigue crack growth rate for FSWed joints was found to follow well log-normal distribution. The shape parameter of BM and HAZ was decreased with increasing the driving force, however, the shape parameter of WM was decreased and increased with increasing the driving force. The scale parameter of BM, HAZ and WM was increased with the driving force.

For Pb-20wt%Cu alloys, severe macrosegregation due to density difference of the resulting phases in normal directional solidification has been minimized and a uniformly aligned dendritic structure has been produced by axially rotating the sample of 5mm diameter in conjunction with horizontal directional solidification. Under the constant growth velocity of $20{\mu}m/sec$, increasing the rotation rate from 0.18 to 12rpm results in a transition from an aligned columnar to an equiaxed Cu-dendritic structure. With a constant rotation rate of 0.18rpm, increasing the growth velocity from 10 to $50{\mu}m/sec$ also has promoted a transition from columnar to equiaxed structure.

Automatic fatigue crack length measuring system using DC electrical potential method and the system control program for automatic fatigue testing under random load condition were made in this study. And using these system and control program, fatigue tests were executed under constant and random load condition. As the result, the propagation of crack in random loading can be represented Paris equaiton and log normal probability function. But constant and random load test show different crack propagation properties.

The protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) reaction kinetics has been studied to evaluate its effect on the monoclonal antibody (Mab) refolding and assembly which accompanies disulfide bend formation. The MAb in vitro assembly experiments showed that the assembly rate of heavy and light chains can be greatly enhanced in the presence of PDI as compared to the rate of assembly obtained by the air-oxidation. The reassembly patterns of MAb in-termediates were identical for both with and without PDI, suggesting that the PDI does not determine the MAb assembly pathway, but rather facilitates the rate of MAb assembly by promoting PDI catalyzed disulfide bond formation. The effect of growth rate on PDI activities for MAb production has also been examined by using continuous culture system. The specific MAb productivity of hybridoma cells decreased as the growth rate increased. However, PDI activities were nearly constant fur a wide range of growth rates except very high growth rate, indicating that no direct correlation between PDI activity and specific MAb productivity exists.

Ships and ocean structures are subjected to random loads caused by irregular waves. The irregularity of amplitude from random loading affects on fatigue crack growth and fatigue life. However the effects of irregularity of loading on fatigue including random loading have not been explained exactly. Therefore in this paper crack growth tests on DENT specimens under constant-amplitude loading including a single tensile overload are conducted to investigate the effect of overload on crack growth rate. The size of plastic zone and crack growth rate before and after a single tensile overloading are measured using ESPI system. Crack growth retardation model that is characterized by crack growth length and the size of plastic zone was proposed and compared with test result. From the research, the validity of proposed model is examined on crack growth retardation, and consequently fatigue life.

Reactive diffusion couples between Fe-5.8at.%Si and (Si wafer, $FeSi_2$, or FeSi alloy) were heat-treated at 1423k. The only layer of $Fe_3Si$ phase was formed in each diffusion couple. The width of $Fe_3Si$ layer was proportional to square root of diffusion time in each kind of diffusion couple. Growth rate of $Fe_3Si$ layer was relied on the concentration of Si in the supplied source of Si atoms. Interdiffusion coefficient of $Fe_3Si$ has been determined from the derived relation between growth rate constant and interdiffusion coefficient in this work. It was shown that the behavior of Kirkendall's void in $Fe_3Si$ layer was not affected by the kind of Si source. But solid solution $\alpha$ was formed in the diffusion couple between Fe-5.8 at.%Si and $Fe_3Si$ alloy. Kirkendall's voids in diffusional $\alpha$ were neglectively smaller than the case of $Fe_3Si$ phase growth.

Purpose: Probabilistic safety analysis was performed to enhance the safety and reliability of nuclear power plants because traditional deterministic approach has limitations in predicting the risk of failure by crack growth. The study introduces a probabilistic approach to establish a basis for probabilistic safety assessment of passive components. Methods: For probabilistic modeling of fatigue crack growth rate (FCGR), various FCGR tests were performed either under constant load amplitude or constant ${\Delta}K$ conditions by using heat treated X-750 at low temperature with adequate cathodic polarization. Bayesian inference was employed to update uncertainties of the FCGR model using additional information obtained from constant ${\Delta}K$ tests. Results: Four steps of Bayesian parameter updating were performed using constant ${\Delta}K$ test results. The standard deviation of the final posterior distribution was decreased by a factor of 10 comparing with that of the prior distribution. Conclusion: The method for developing a probabilistic crack growth model has been designed and demonstrated, in the paper. Alloy X-750 has been used for corrosion fatigue crack growth experiments and modeling. The uncertainties of parameters in the FCGR model were successfully reduced using the Bayesian inference whenever the updating was performed.

Purpose: Children born with single ventricle physiology demonstrate poor growth rate and suffer from malnutrition, which lead to increased morbidity and mortality in this population. We assume that an anabolic steroid, oxandrolone, will promote growth in these infants by improving myocardial energy utilization. The purpose of this paper is to study the efficacy of oxandrolone on myocardial energy consumption in these infants. Materials and Methods: We modeled single ventricle physiology in a lamb by prenatally shunting the aorta to the pulmonary artery and then postnatally, we monitored cardiac energy utilization by quantitatively measuring the first order reaction rate constant, $k_f$ of the creatine-kinase reaction in the heart using magnetization transfer $^{31}P$ magnetic resonance spectroscopy, home built $^1H/^{31}P$ transmit/receive double tuned coil, and transmit/receive switch. We also performed cine MRI to study the structure and dynamic function of the myocardium and the left ventricular chamber. The spectroscopy data were processed using home-developed python software, while cine data were analyzed using Argus software. Results: We quantitatively measured both the first order reaction rate constant and ejection fraction in the control, shunted, and the oxandrolone-treated lambs. Both $k_f$ and ejection fraction were found to be more significantly reduced in the shunted lambs compared to the control lambs, and they are increased in oxandrolone-treated lambs. Conclusion: Some improvement was observed in both the first order reaction rate constant and ejection fraction for the lamb treated with oxandrolone in our preliminary study.
