Productivity of secreted recombinant protein depends largely on its stability in the extracellular environment with protease. Most hGM-CSF produced by transgenic tobacco cell cultures and secreted to the medium was confirmed to be rapidly degraded by protease in medium. To increase the productivity, therefore, various protein stabilizers such as gelling agents such as carrageenan and alginate, polymers, polyols, and amino acids have been tested. The stability of hGM-CSF in spent medium without cells was improved by the presence of gelling agents. However, the reason for the enhanced production by the addition of gelling agents may be due to the increased expression level and permeability rather than stability. The addition of DMSO inhibited the cell growth, but improved specific yield. The others were not effective for stability as well as hGM-CSF production.

An increasing concern is paid to short-term voltage stability with the growth of penetration of induction motor loads. Reactive power reserve(RPR) of power system is critical to improve voltage stability. A definition of short-term voltage stability-related RPR(SVRPR) is proposed. Generators vary their contributions to voltage stability with their location and system condition, etc. Voltage support coefficient based on the second-order trace sensitivity method is proposed to evaluate SVRPR's contribution to short-term voltage stability. The evaluation method can account for the generator's reactive support in transient process and the contingency severity. Then an optimization model to improve short-term voltage stability is built. To deal with multiple contingencies, contingency weight taking into account both its probability and severity is proposed. The optimization problem is solved by primal dual interior point method. Testing on IEEE_39 bus system, it is indicated that the method proposed is effective. Short-term voltage stability is improved significantly by the way of SVRPR optimization. Hence, the approach can be used to prevent the happening of voltage collapse during system's contingency.

Twenty-five Eucalyptus clones (14 E. camaldulensis - EC and 11 interspecific eucalypt hybrid clones - EH) grown in three contrasting sites were evaluated for the growth and few wood traits at 4 years of age. The stability, genotype-site interaction and suitability of these clones for pulp and solid wood industry sectors were studied. Growth of eucalypt clones was significantly higher at site 1 with higher rainfall, but wood density did not differ significantly from lower rainfall sites. Kraft pulp yield (KPY) decreased from sites 1 to 3 based on moisture availability, but not between two groups of clones. Volumetric shrinkage (VS) was significantly higher in EC clones at site 3 with lowest rainfall, but there was no specific trend at other two sites with maximum (site 1) and intermediate (site 2) rainfall. The mechanical traits modulus of rupture (MOR) and modulus of elasticity (MOE) were at par in sites 1 and 2, but significantly lower at the driest site 3. The growth rate had a significant positive correlation with KPY, MOR and MOE and a negative correlation with VS, but no significant impact on wood density in both groups of clones. Genotype×environment interaction (G×E) was evident in most traits due to the difference in response of clones to moisture availability. Since wood density was negatively correlated to KPY, it has to be kept at an optimum level for the profitability of pulp industry. There was no significant difference between EC and EH clones for most traits except VS at site 3. Stability of clones varied across sites in different traits, and hence clones may be selected for deployment at each site by screening for growth, followed by wood density, considering the relationship of growth and density with other traits required by pulp and solid wood industry sectors.

Due to the COVID-19 phenomenon, more than one-third of SMEs in Korea have been working from home. Therefore, we tried to find out the management status of SMEs and find policy support. The survey data was based on the Bank of Korea's corporate management analysis 2021 data. As a result of the study, the debt of SMEs increased from 362 trillion won(2019) to 409 trillion won(2022), while their capital decreased from 489 trillion won(2019) to 336 trillion won(2022). Net profit and loss increased to 14.9 trillion won(2019) and 23.3 trillion won(2021). As a result of the company's financial soundness analysis, First, for stability, the current ratio was high compared to the total industry and the dependence on borrowings was high. Second, profitability improved from 3.20%(2019) to 4.28%(2021), but it was lower than 5.01%(2021) for all industries. Third, the growth rate showed an increase of 12.43%, which is 1.57 times faster than the total asset growth rate of 7.94%(2021) for all industries. As for the growth rate of sales, all industries(2021) showed (-)growth, while SMEs among manufacturing industries showed a growth rate of 14.78%. Fourth, as for activity, the total asset turnover ratio was higher at 0.96% compared to 0.73 for all industries. In conclusion, stability and profitability were low and growth potential was high compared to all industries. In the future, policies that focus on industries with high growth potential are needed.

Uniform polycrystalline $CoSi_2$layers have been grown in situ on a polycrystalline Si substrate at temperature near $625^{\circ}C$ by reactive chemical vapor deposition of cyclopentadienyl dicarbonyl cobalt, Co(η$^{5}$ -C$_{5}$ H$_{5}$ )(CO)$_2$. The growth behavior and thermal stability of $CoSi_2$layer grown on polycrystalline Si substrates were investigated. The plate-like CoSi$_2$was initially formed with either (111), (220) or (311) interface on polycrystalline Si substrate. As deposition time was increasing, a uniform epitaxial $CoSi_2$layer was grown from the discrete $CoSi_2$plate, where the orientation of the$ CoSi_2$layer is same as the orientation of polycrystalline Si grain. The interface between $CoSi_2$layer and polycrystalline Si substrate was always (111) coherent. The growth of the uniform $CoSi_2$layer had a parabolic relationship with the deposition time. Therefore we confirmed that the growth of $CoSi_2$layer was controlled by diffusion of cobalt. The thermal stability of $CoSi_2$layer on small grain-sized polycrystalline Si substrate has been investigated using sheet resistance measurement at temperature from $600^{\circ}C$ to $900^{\circ}C$. The $CoSi_2$layer was degraded at $900^{\circ}C$. Inserting a TiN interlayer between polycrystalline Si and $_CoSi2$layers improved the thermal stability of $CoSi_2$layer up to $900^{\circ}C$ due to the suppression of the Co diffusion.

Graphene is a two-dimensional carbon allotrope composed of honeycomb sp² hybrid orbital bonds. It shows excellent electrical and mechanical properties and has been spotlighted as a core material for next-generation electronic devices. However, it exhibits low environmental stability due to the easy penetration or adsorption of external impurities from the formation of an unstable interface between the materials in the electronic devices. Therefore, this work aims to improve and investigate the low environmental stability of graphene-based field-effect transistors through direct growth using solid hydrocarbons as a precursor of graphene. Graphene synthesized from direct growth shows high electrical stability through reduction of change in charge mobility and Dirac voltage. Through this, a new approach to utilize graphene as a core material for next-generation electronic devices is presented.

The effect of pH and particle size on the dispersion stability of ultra-fine $BaTiO_3$ suspensions in aqueous medium have been investigated by means of zeta potential, sediment experiments, and powder properties (particle analysis, specific surface area) etc. Zeta potential as a function of pH for two particles of different size increases from -75 to +10 mV with decreasing pH from 8.5 to 1.4. The curve of zeta potential for small particle (150 nm) has slow slope than that of large particle (900nm), giving IEP (isoelectric point) value of pH=1.6 for small particle and pH=1.9 for large particle respectively, which means that it is more difficult to control zeta potential with pH fur small particle than large particle. The dispersion stability of $BaTiO_3$ particles in aqueous medium was found to be strongly related with the agglomeration of colloidal suspensions with time through the sedimentation behaviors of colloidal particles with time and pH value.

Transition location of boundary layers over airfoils is predicted by using PSE(Parabolized Stability Equations) and $e^N$-method. Growth rates of disturbances are obtained from the PSE analysis and the N-factor curves are calculated by integrating the growth rates. The computational code developed in the present study is validated by comparing the computed results with the well known data for the cases of flat plate boundary layers and airfoils. Predictions of transition location are made for the boundary layers over NACA0012, NLF(1)-0414F, and NLF(1)-0416 airfoil. Predicted transition locations are found to be in good agreement with the experimental data.
