$Bi_2Te_3$계 열전반도체 재료는 200 ~ 400K 정도의 저온에서 에너지 변환 효율이 가장 높은 재료로서 열전냉각 및 발전재료로 제조볍 및 특성에 관한 많은 연구가 진행되어 왔다. 전자냉각 모듈의 제조에는 P형 및 N형 $Bi_2Te_3$계 단결정이 주로 사용되고 있으나. $Bi_2Te_3$ 단결정은 C축에 수직한 벽개면을 따라 균열이 쉽게 전파하기 때문에 소자 가공사 수윤 저하가 가장 큰 문제점으로 지적되고 있다. 이에 따라 최근 열전재료의 가공방법에 따른 회수율 증가 및 열전특성 향상에 관한 열간압출, 단조와 같은 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구는 가스분사법(gas atomizer)을 이용하여 용질원자 편석의 감소, 고용도의 증가,균일고용체 형성, 결정립미세화 둥 급속응고의 장점을 이용하여 화학적으로 균질한$Bi_2Te_3$계 열전재료 분말을 제조하고, 제조된 분발을 압출가공하여 기계적성질, 소자의 가공성 및 열전 성능 지수율 향상시키는데 연구 목적이 있다. 본 설험에서는 99.9%이상의 고순도 Bi. Te. Se. Sb를 이용하여, 고주파 유도로에서 Ar 분위기로 용융하고, 가스분사법를 이용하여 균질한 $Bi_2Te_3$계 열전재료 분만을 제조하였다. 분말표면의 산화막을 제거하기 위하여 수소분위기에서 환원처리를 행하였고, 된 분말을 Al 캔 주입하여 냉간성형 한 후 진공중에서 압출온도를 변화시켜 열간압출 가공을 행하였다. 압출 온도변화에 따른 압출재의 미세조직 및 열전특성에 중요한 영향을 미치는 C면 배향에 대한 결정방위 해석, 압출재의 압축강도 등을 분석하였으며, 압출온도에 따삼 미세조직 변화와 결정방위의 변화에 따른 열전특성의 관계를 해석하였다성시켰고 이들이 산인 HNO3에서 녹았기 때문이다. 본 연구에서 개발된 새로운 에칭 용액인 90H2O2 - 10HNO3 (vol%)의 에칭 원리가 똑같이 적용 가능한 다른 종류의 초경 합금에서도 사용이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.로 판단된다.멸과정은 다음과 같다. 출발물질인 123 분말이 211과 액상으로 분해될 때 산소가스가 배출되며, 이로 인해 액상에서 구형의 기공이 생성된다. 이들 중 일부는 액상으로 채워져 소멸되나, 나머지는 그대로 남는다. 특히, 시편 중앙에 서는 수십-수백 마이크론 크기의 커다란 기공이 다수 관찰된는데, 이는 기공의 합체로 만들어진 것이다. 포정반응 열처리 시 기공 소멸로 만들어진 액상포켓들은 주변 211 입자와 반응하여 123 영역으로 변한다. 이곳은 다른 지역과 비교하여 211 밀도 가 낮기 때문에, 미반응 액상이 남거나 211 밀도가 낮은 123 영역이 된다. 액상으로 채워지지 못한 구형의 기공들 중 다수가 123 결정 내로 포획되며, 그 형상은 액상/ 기공/고상 계면에너지에 의해 결정된다.단의 경우, 파단면이 매끄럽고 파변상의 결정립도 매우 미세하였으며, 산확물 의 용집도 찾아보기 어려웠 나, 접합부 파단의 경우에는 파변의 굴곡이 비교척 심하고 연성 입계파괴의 형태를 보였￡며, 결정립도 모채부 파단의 경우에 비해 조대하였다. 조대하였다. 셋째, 주상기간 중 총 에너지 유입률 지수와 $Dst_{min}$ 사이에 높은 상관관계가 확인되었다. 특히 환전류를 구성하는 주요 입자의 에너지 영역(75~l13keV)에서 가장 높은(0.80) 상관계수를 기록했다. 넷째, 회복기 중에 일어나는 입자들의 유입은 자기폭풍의 지속시간을 연장시키는 경향을 보이며 큰 자기폭풍일수록 현저했다. 주상에서 관측된 이러한 특성은 서브스톰 확장기 활동이 자기폭풍의

This study was performed to examine the quality characteristics of the sponge cakes with different contents (2-10% (w/w)) of lemon grass powder (LGP). An increase in LGP content in the cake led to a significant increase in the specific gravity of batter, baking loss rate, redness, hardness, cohesiveness, chewiness, and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity of the cakes and a significant decrease in pH, moisture content, specific volume, height, volume and symmetry index, lightness, and yellowness of the cakes. Springness and resilience did not show any difference between the cakes. The consumer acceptance test indicated that the addition of LGP up to 2% did not cause a significant negative effect on the consumer acceptances in all attributes. The sponge cakes with 2% LGP can be recommended for manufacturing bakery.

Foaming of slag is a thermodynamically unstable phenomenon and has significant effects in iron and steelmaking processes. For better recycling method of pulp sludge, the application as an defoaming agent during steelmaking process was adopted and tested. The forming machine has been modified in order to produce the briquettes, which are made of pulp sludge and slag with different weight ratio. Influencing factors on the foaming phenomena have been studied and tested for better understanding of foaming phenomena. Experiments were carried out with $CaO-FeO-SiO_2$ based slags with Ar gas injection and addition of coke particles. The slag basicity and (%FeO) contents adapted as major factors to treasure foaming tendency of the slag system. It was found that foam index (${\Sigma}$) gradually decreased as both the basicity and the (FeO) content increase. Four kinds of antifoaming agent such as aluminium dross, cokes, rice bran and pulp sludge with steelmaking slag have been tested in actual process. Aluminium dross was the most effective, and pulp sludge with steelmaking slag also showed the desired results.

In this paper, the bit error rare (BER) performance of DS/CDMA DQPSK communication system in the presence of multi access interference, impulsive noise and Nakagami fading is investigated. The DS/CDMA DQPSK communication system adopts Maximum Ratio Combining (MRC) diversity reception and error correcting BCH code technique to enhance system performance. Using the derived error probability equation, the error rate performance of DS/CDMA DQPSK communication system has been evaluated and shown in figures to discuss as a function of impulsive index(A), Gaussian noise to impulsive noise power ratio($\Gamma$'), multi access interference(Κ), Nakagami fading parameter(m), the number of diversity branch (Ｌ), the number of error correction symbol (t), PN code sequence length(N) and $E_b/N_0$. The error performance of DS/CDMA-MDPSK signals improve by adopting MRC diversity and BCH(15,7) coding technique in the environment of impulsive noise plus Nagakami fading. From the results, we known that proposed system is affected by multi access interference, impulsive noise and Nakagami fading in radio communication system environment. Also, BER performance of DS/CDMA DQPSK communication system cam be improved increasing either the power of desired signal or the value of Gaussian noise to impulsive noise power ratio. And BCH(15,7) code technique is more effective to restrain the affection of multi access, interference, impulsive noise and Nakagami fading in DS/CDMA DQPSK communication system than MRC diversity reception technique.

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of cimetidine on theophylline pharmacokinetics in Korean healthy normal subjects. Eight subjects were enrolled and open label, two period cross-over study was conducted without significant drug related adverse reactions. Cimetidine seemed that significantly inhibited the metabolism of theophylline, oral clearance decreased significantly when cimetidine was coadministered. Coadministered cimetidine increased $AUC_t$ and $C_{max}$ of theophylline. All subjects were genotyped using PCR-RFLP methods to evaluate the differences in metabolic capacity in accordance with CYP1A2 genotypes, but no mutant genotype was found. This suggests that metabolic capacities were not significantly affected by CYP1A2 genotypes among subjects. In conclusion, disposition of theophylline was significantly affected by coadministered cimetidine. Further evaluation with well-designed drug interaction study in accordance with various genotype of CYP1A2 is needed.

Slime flounder, Microstomus achne is distributed in the coastal waters of Korea, west sea of Japan, BoHai, Yellow sea and East china sea. They are mainly caught by bottom trawl net during winter, from December to March. Sexual maturation of slime flounder were investigated using samples collected from commercial catch in the southern coast of Korea from November, 2006 to March, 2007. The ovary of the slime flounder is a conical bag in shape and is bilateral structure develops lengthily from the posterior of the abdomen to the end of the anal fin. The testis also is bilateral in structure, usually located in small size in the abdomen. In females, the gonadosomatic index (GSI) were peaked in January (12.46), then decreased rapidly thereafter. Female GSI values plummeted to 2.72 in March just after spawning. Male GSI values were peaked in December (2.46) before in the spawning season, then decreased slowly thereafter. The reproductive cycle would be classified into three successive developmental stages : maturation stage (November to January), ripe and spawning stage (December to February), degenerative and resting stage (February to March). Relationships between the fish sizes in total length (TL) and the number of ovarian eggs (F), the body weights (BW) and the number of ovarian eggs were indicated by the exponential equation respectively: F=29.027TL-767.8 (r$^2$=0.7686), F=0.3998BW+24.288 (r$^2$=0.8919).

Potassium (K) is one of the essential nutrients for plants but is not a constituent of any plant compound. K is substances for activation of many enzymes and influences the process that the enzymes are involved in catalyzing. Although experimental results associated with the K effects with both benefits and no effects on turfgrass growth were reported, the limited research results of K effects on turfgrass among K sources are available in Korea. The objectives of the study was conducted to evaluate responses of Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.) treated by fertilizer treatments with six K sources. There were six fertilizer treatments as K sources applied to Kentucky bluegrass which were potassium nitrate (13-0-44, PN), potassium chloride (0-0-60, PC), potassium sulfate (0-0-50, PS), polymer-coated potassium sulfate (0-0-45, PPS), potassium thiosulfate (0-0-25, PT), and potassium sulfate granulated with methylene urea (20-0-25, PSU). Potassium of $8g\;m^{-2}$ and N of $5g\;m^{-2}$ was applied 4 times giving a total 20 and $30g\;m^{-2}$, respectively. Although significant differences were found for turfgrass color, quality, chlorophyll index, and clipping dry weight, no consistent results among K sources were found during the one year study. Overall, K treatments didn't affect turfgrass growth in this study.

Much of the Cumberland Plateau of Tennessee, USA is in mixed hardwoods for which there are no applicable growth and yield predictors. Use of site index as a variable in growth and yield prediction models is limited in most stands because their history is not known and many may not be even-aged. Landtypes may offer an alternative to site index for these mixed stands because they were designed to include land of about equal productivity. To determine vegetation by landtype, dependency between landtype and detailed forest type was tested with Chi-square. Differences in productivity among landtypes were tested by employing regression analyses and analysis of variance(ANOVA). Basal area growth was fitted to the nonlinear models developed by Moser and Hall(1969). Basal area growth and volume growth were also predicted as a function of initial total basal area and initial volume with linear regression by landtype and by landtype class. Differences in basal area growth and volume growth by landtype were tested with ANOVA. Dependency between site class and landtype was tested with Chi-square. Vegetation types seem to be related to landtypes in the study area although the validity of the test is questionable because of a high proportion of sparsely occupied cells. No statistically significant differences in productivity among landtypes were found in this study.

The aim of this study was to compare the clinical performance of 4 types of orthodontic wires, indicated for initial tooth alignment: stainless steel, multistranded steel, superelastic and thermoactivated nickel-titanium. A prospective randomized clinical trial was conducted on a sample of 45 patients, at the Dental School of the State University of Rio do Janeiro, Brazil. Fixed appliances were fitted and study casts were obtained from each patient. Randomly, the wires were allocated as follows: 26 dental arches for superelastic NiTi wires, 22 for stainless steel, 22 for multistranded and 20 for thermoactivated archwires. After 8 weeks, the archwires were removed and impressions for study casts were taken again. Using a 3D digitization technique of defined anatomical points on the study cast crowns, a Dental Irregularity Index (DII) was created for each study cast. The difference between DII before and after the archwire insertion expressed the aligning effect of the wires. ANOVA tests were employed to evaluate the anatomical point approximation (positive DII) and separation (negative DII), for each area of the dental arches: upper and lower whole arch and anterior arch. Results showed no significant difference between the different archwires.
