Porous ceramics for water-permeable paving brick was prepared by the sintering of mixed materials comprising of sewage sludge ash, waste porcelain fragment, waste glaze and low-grade clay at 1,000$^{\circ}C$ for 2 h, and the physical $.$mechanical properties, the permeability and the freeze-thaw resistance of specimens with preparation parameters were investigated. The physical mechanical properties were increased in specimens while porosity and permeability were decreased with increasing sewage sludge ash content and sintering temperature on the properties of specimens showed the opposite results. The bulk density, porosity, compressive strength and permeability (passed charge) of 30A60F specimens with 30 wt% of sewage sludge ash content, waste porcelain fragment size with 1∼2 mm and sintered at 1,000$^{\circ}C$ for 2 h were 2.17, 46.2%, 221 kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and 3,150 coulombs, respectively. The permeability was increased with increasing waste porcelain fragment size, however compressive strength was decreased. The freeze-thaw resistance of 30A60F specimen with 1∼2 mm of fragment size was superior to that of the other specimens. The 30A60F specimens can be used for the water-permeable paving brick with the high permeability and adequate strength. The heavy metals included in the all specimens showed lower than the standard level.

In this research, finite difference (FD) scheme for the interface of the layer between different soil characteristics was suggested. Based on the suggested scheme, FD analysis program for the consolidation analysis of the multi-layered and smeared soil was developed. And the applicability of the program was investigated by the FD analysis conducted for the various soil conditions. Analysis results showed that the permeability near the drainage boundary had a dominant effect on the consolidation rate. And the consolidation rate of the soil with the constant permeability in smeared area was retarded more than the soil with the linear variation of permeability in smeared area. Simple assumption of the constant variation of permeability in smeared area could be used when the decreasing rate of permeability in smeared area was relatively low. But exact assumption of the permeability variation in smeared area should be considered when the decreasing rate of permeability in smeared area was relatively high. Finally, based on the analysis result on Busan area, the analysis considering multi-layered soil should be needed to exactly evaluate time for the completion of consolidation.

The Ni-Zn synthetic ferrite were acquired from thermally decomposing the metal nitrates Fe(NO$_3$)$_3$.$9H_2$O, Zn($NO_3$)$_2$.$6H_2$O, Ni($NO_3$)$_2$. $6H_2$O, and Cu($NO_3$)$_2$. $3H_2$O at $150^{\circ}C$ for 24 hours and was calcined at $500^{\circ}C$. Each of those was pulverized for 3, 6, 9, and 12 hours in a steel ball mill and was sintered between $700^{\circ}C$ and $1,000^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour, and then their microstructures and electromagnetic properties were examined. We could make the initial specimens chemically bonded in liquid at the temperature as low as $150^{\circ}C$, by using the melting points less than $200^{\circ}C$ of the metal nitrates instead of the mechanical ball milling, then narrowed a distance between the particles into a molecular level, and thus lowed sintering temperature by at least $200^{\circ}C$ to$ 300^{\circ}C$. Their initial permeability was 50 to 400 and their saturation magnetic induction density and coercive force 2,400 G and 0.3 Oe to 0.5 Oe each, which were similar to those of Ni- Zn ferrite synthesized in the conventional process. In the graph of initial permeability vs frequencies, we could observe a $180^{\circ}C$rotation of the magnetic domain, which appears in a broad band of microwave near the resonance frequency.

In this study, a virtual specimen with a linear continuous gradient of void ratio (FGM: Functional Graded Material) is constructed using low-order probability functions of two real cement paste specimens. Two real specimens with difference void ratios are taken from X-ray CT to construct the virtual specimen. A virtual specimen with a gradient void distribution, whose average void ratio is between void ratios of two homogeneous real specimens, is constructed using a stochastic optimization approach. The void ratio distribution is assumed to be linear, and continuously varies in the vertical direction. In this study, a gradient term of void ratio is incorporated into the objective function as well as low-order probability functions from the previous research. To confirm the effect of gradient void distribution on the material response, air permeability is evaluated using finite element analysis. The analysis results are compared with experimental results, and confirm the effect of gradient void distribution on permeability.

We have studied on the magnetic properties of the specimen with additives Bi$_2$O$_3$and$V_2O_5$ that sintered at 900 $^{\circ}C$ for 4 hours for sybthesizing optimal Ni-Zn-Cu ferrite. Curie temperature rises from 240 $^{\circ}C$ to 270 $^{\circ}C$ as Ni contents increase. Magentic maximum induction$(B_m)$ increases from 2650 G to 3300 G, 3500 G in the specimens with $V_2O_5$ and Bi$_2$O$_3$resectively. On the contrary coercive force $(H_c)$ lowers to 2.05 Oe~1.05 Oe. Permeability all increase in the specimen with additives. In the specimen with additive Bi$_2$O$_3$, we have obtained the low relative loss factor of $6.3{\times}10^{-5}~7.84{\times}10^{-5}$ in the range of 1MHz due to increase of resistivity in grain boundary. In the specimen with additive $V_2O_5$ in spite of increase permeability relative loss factor increase of due to decrease of Q-value.

Ginsenosides, dammarane-type triterpene saponins obtained from ginseng, have been used as a natural medicine for many years in the Orient due to their various pharmacological activities. However, the therapeutic potential of ginsenosides has been largely limited by the low bioavailability of the natural products caused mainly by low aqueous solubility, poor biomembrane permeability, instability in the gastrointestinal tract, and extensive metabolism in the body. To enhance the bioavailability of ginsenosides, diverse micro-/nano-sized delivery systems such as emulsions, polymeric particles, and vesicular systems have been investigated. The delivery systems improved the bioavailability of ginsenosides by enhancing solubility, permeability, and stability of the natural products. This mini-review aims to provide comprehensive information on the micro-/nano-sized delivery systems for increasing the bioavailability of ginsenosides, which may be helpful for designing better delivery systems to maximize the versatile therapeutic potential of ginsenosides.

Gas separation membrane technology is useful for a variety of applications [1, 2]. such as hydrogen recovery from reactor purge gas, nitrogen and oxygen enrichment, water vapor removal from air, stripping of carbon dioxide from natural gas. etc. Although membrane separations are attractive because of low energy costs and simple operation, low permeabilities and/or selectivity often limit membrane applications [3, 4].(omitted)

Cultivation on reclaimed tidal land is often difficult in the problem such as high salinity of soil, bad drainage because of high level of groundwater. Many researches have been made efforts to solve these problems, but effect of improvement is low and practicality is insufficient. In this study, through numerical analysis of the transport properties of salt and water, we suggested underground drainage of the reclaimed land and the desalination promotion methods in the soil. The results of characteristic of desalination and seepage analysis of underdrain show that underdrain is able to increase twice of the underground seepage amount when installing perforated pipe with horizontal filter (width 50cm) more than installing only the perforated pipe. For soil which coefficient of permeability is below $1{\times}10^{-4}cm/s$ that desalination with pond water is not possible, a method to increase the permeability of the soil is necessary. Therefore, it was concluded that application of underdrain using perforated pipe with horizontal filter would be low-cost and practical.
