The typhoon and flooding injury in rice were investigated both the region of downpour at the middle of August and the region of typhoon 'Yanni' at the late of September, 1998 in Kyongbuk provincial of Korea. More than 10% of rice stem were buried by soil inundation, the heading was delayed and the high node tiller was brought out. Yield components were deteriorated and yield was reduced. As the clay in the muddy water was attached on grains of rice, the yield was greatly reduced by reason of low grain filling ratio and polished rice ratio. The injury of muddy water was less at yellow ripening stage than at early ripening stage. On the other hand, the muddy water injury was reduced by the fungicide 'Benomyl' and 'Daconil' treatments. The degree of lodging according to varieties and ripening stages was not made a great difference, while the lodging was mainly occurred in the early transplanting time. In a week after lodging, viviparous spikes were occurred in almost all varieties, the degree of viviparity was shown highly in order of early maturing, middle maturing and late maturing varieties in the field as well as in laboratory test. The viviperous spikes were greatly occurred in the lodging toward hill space within row than row space because the more grains were touched on the ground.

Recently, utility network is becoming more and more complicated and huge due to IT(Information Technology) and OA(Office Automation) devices. In addition to, demands of power conversion devices which have non-linear switching devices are getting more and more increased. Voltage sag from sudden increasing loads is also one of the major problems inside of the utility network. In order to compensate the voltage sag problem, power compensation devices systems could be a good solution method. In case of voltage sag, it needs an energy source to overcome the energy caused by voltage sag. Superconducting Magnet Energy Storage (SMES) is a very good promising source due to the high response time of charge and discharge. This paper presents a real-time simulation algorithm for the SMES by using Real Time Digital Simulator (RTDS). With this algorithm users can easily do the simulation of utility power network applied by SMES system with the SMES coil modeled in RTDS.

Openstack is an open source software that enables developers to build IaaS(Infrastructure as a Service) cloud platforms. Openstack can virtualize servers, networks and storages, and provide them to users. This paper proposes the structure of Openstack cloud storage system applying Infiniband to solve bottlenecking that may occur between server and storage nodes when the server performs an I/O operation. Furthermore, we implement all flash array based high-performance Cinder storage volumes which can be used at Nova virtual machines by applying distributed RAID-60 structures to three 8-bay SSD storages and show that Infiniband storage networks applied to Openstack is suitable for virtualizing high-performance storage.

The SC (steel-concrete) composite column was developed to take advantage of the relative economy of using concrete as opposed to steel in carrying large compressive forces. As the SC composite column is pre-fabricated, its use can minimize laborand can speed up the erection of a steel building. In this study, an experiment was conducted to analyze the influence of several parameters, such as the load ratio, the concrete ratio of an area, and its performance with or without fire protection, on the performance of the SC composite column. This paper proposes that the calculation of the strength reduction ratios of columns be done by increasing the temperature. Theoretical equations were used to evaluate the effectiveness of the fire resistance of the SC composite column, and the results of the test and analysis were compared. The fire resistance of the SC composite column was increased by decreasing its load ratio, but the concrete ratio of an area has minimal influence on the fire resistance of the SC composite column.

This study was performed to investigate thermophilic bacteria from soil having broad antifungal spectrum against Rhizoctonia solani, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, Phytophthora capsici, Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lycopersici, and Botrytis cinerea. One isolate selected could resist heat shock of $60^{\circ}C$ for one hour, and had broad antifungal activity in dual culture assay against all tested fungal pathogens and was identified as Bacillus amyloliquefaciens Y1 using 16S rRNA gene sequence. Further investigation for antifungal activity of bacterial culture filtrate (BCF) and butanol crude extract (BCE) of various concentrations showed broad spectrum antifungal activity and fungal growth inhibition significantly increased with increasing concentration with highest growth inhibition of 100% against R. solani with 50% BCF and 11 mm of zone of inhibition against R. solani with 4 mg BCE concentration. Treatment of butanol crude extract resulted in deformation, lysis or degradation of C. gloeosporioides and P. capsici hyphae. Furthermore, B. amyloliquefaciens Y1 produced volatile compounds inhibiting growth of R. solani (70%), C. gloeosporioides (65%) and P. capsici (65-70%) when tested in volatile assay. The results from the study suggest that B. amyloliquefaciens Y1 could be a biocontrol candidate to control fungal diseases in crops.

Protaetia brevitarsis (PB) extracts has been traditionally used as medicinal stuff to treat blood stasis, occlusion of menstruation, tetanus and liver cancer in Asian countries (Korea, Japan, China, Taiwan, India and Myanmar). Especially, Donguibogam, which is traditional korean medicinal book, described the PB extracts as traditional medicine to treat hepatic diseases and vascular disorders. The PB extracts has been considered as highly nutritional food. The major constituents of PB extracts are rich in protein, healthy fats, iron, calcium. Recent studies announced that PB extracts has hepatoprotective effect and anti-microbacterial effect. However, the effect of PB on ulcerative colitis has not been uncovered yet. The aim of this study was to examine the anti-inflammatory effect of PB extracts in dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis mice model. Cytotoxicity of PB was determined by MTT assay and the antiinflammatory effect of PB extract was investigated by measuring nitric oxide (NO) production. PB extracts did not show any cytotoxicity. AIso, PB extracts supressed NO production in LPS-stimulated mice peritoneal macrophages. To determine whether PB could be an effective treatment on ulcerative colitis, DSS was administered in BALB/c mice for 10 days. PB extract significantly improved the clinical signs of DSS-induced UC, including body weight loss, colon length shortening, and disease activity index increase, with histological markers of colon injury. These findings indicated the possibility of PB as a therapeutic agent on ulcerative colitis.

Recently matured silkworm powder was developed by RDA. In this study, the effect of pulverizing method on the particle size of matured silkworm powder was examined. FESEM was performed to observe the morphology and to measure the particle size of silkworm powder. Particle morphology of air-jet mill pulverized powder was round and smooth, however, those of roller-mill and hammer-mill pulverized mature silkworm was more harsh and square. Particle size was varied with pulverizing technique as follows; $1.1{\mu}m$ (air-jet mill), $10{\mu}m$ (roller mill), and $120{\mu}m$ (hammer mill), respectively. A proximate analysis results of air-jet mill powder showed that crude protein, crude lipid, crude fiber, and ash was 73%, 12%, 1.95%, and 3.4%, respectively. According to our results, air-jet mell technique might be used to make a tiny matured silkworm powder.
