To examine the density effect and food concentration in the competitive output of two Bosmina species, the population growths of Bosmina fatalis were investigated by manipulating the density of B. longirostris and the concentration of algae. The B. fatalis density did not increase in conditions with abundant B. longirostris regardless of the food concentrations. The B. fatalis increased only at low densities of B. longirostris with high food concentrations. Based on the current results, a possible mechanism underlying the seasonal shift from B. longirostris to B. fatalis in Japanese eutrophic lakes will be explored below.

As a part of the study on manufacture of low density paper by organic bulky agent treatment, the effects of cationic fatty acid bulky agent on physical and optical properties of handsheets were elucidated. The research on change of physical and optical properties of paper samples according to bulky agent concentration, pulp type, and pulp combination were carried out. The results demonstrated that an increase of the concentration of cationic fatty acid bulky agent was proportional to an increase of the bulky properties of paper samples while tensile strength decreased. Also, the more the treated concentration of cationic fatty acid bulky agent increased, the more the ISO brightness of paper samples decreased while the opacity increased. The effectiveness of bulky agent with softwood bleached kraft pulp (SwBKP) was higher than that with hardwood bleached kraft pulp (HwBKP). In addition, the effectiveness with mixed pulps was higher than that with single pulp.

The crevice corrosion of local corrosion occur when the gap exist on metal surface. This crevice corrosion happen to region such as flange of pipe, contact part of casing, under gasket and packing, between valve disk and seat of pump etc. Especially The crevice corrosion of mild steel(SS 400) get serious. This paper was studied on the crevice corrosion of SS 400 in fluid environment. In $0\%,\;2\%,\;3.5\%,\;5\% NaCl$ solution, the aspect of the crevice corrosion and polarization behavior under the crevice corrosion was investigated. And Weight loss rate of SS 400 with crevice and non-crevice was measured according to the NaCl concentration. The main results obtained are as follows : 1) Under crevice corrosion, the corrosion potential become less noble as the concentration of NaCl solution increased. 2) The current density under open circuit potential was high drained as concentration of NaCl solution increased by $3.5\%$ but the concentration increased over $3.5\%$, the current density was low drained. 3) The weight loss rate of SS 400 was increased as concentration of NaCl solution Increased by $3.5\%$, but the concentration increased over $3.5\%$, that of SS 400 was decreased. 4) Effect of oxygen for crevice corrosion in the concentration of $3.5\%$ NaCl solution become sensitive than that $0\%$ NaCl solution.

In this work, the heterogeneous ion exchange membrane was used in a electrodialysis apparatus to treat a Ni planting rinse water because the heterogeneous ion exchange membrane was excellent efficiency as compared with low manufacturing cost, was easy to make, and had a good mechanical properties. For a regeneration of membrane and to obtain the optimal condition for a scale-up of apparatus after treating Ni plating rinse water, we would find about the limiting current density and the concentration polarization. When the Ni plating rinse water 150mg/L was treated with the electrodialysis apparatus using the heterogeneous ion exchange membrane, the limiting current density was about $1.49{\;}mA/\textrm{cm}^2$. And the limiting current density increased with the flow rate and concentration of Ni plating rinse water. We recognized that the used membrane could be reused by periodic backwashing because efficiency was constant when the membrane was backwashed after treating wastewater.

Due to environmental concerns $CO_2$ has been reintroduced as a potential candidate to replace HFCs in refrigeration systems. Oils are always required in a vapor-compression cycle, and thus it is necessary to precisely estimate the thermodynamic mixture properties of $CO_2$-lubricant oil. In the present study, the density and the viscosity of the mixture was calculated by the Redlich and Kwong type EoS and the modified Peng and Robinson type viscosity EoS, respectively. The viscosity model was based on the similarity between P-v-T and T-$\mu$-P relationships. The predicted results were compared with the experimental data of Pens ado et al. whose test conditions were 100$\sim$650 bar of pressure and 303 K$\sim$353 K of temperature with the $CO_2$-POEs mixtures under 92.2 wt.% and 83.3 wt.% of $CO_2$ concentration. The mean deviations of the mixture density were 7.93% and 8.32% for 92.2 wt.% and 83.3 wt.% of $CO_2$ concentration, respectively. Concerning the viscosity, the mean deviations were 4% and 10% for 92.2 wt.% and 83.3 wt.% of $CO_2$ concentration under the Pensado et al.'s test conditions.

The structure of the nematodes communities has been studied in the sediments on two sites located outside and under the layer of Ahnfeltia tobuchiensis (Kanno and Matsubara 1932; Makijenko 1970). Bottom sediments at the stations were represented by sands with a different degree of silting. Specific structure of nematodes at the stations was significantly different under the similar environmental conditions (water depth, dissolved oxygen saturation, salinity, temperature of the bottom layer and organic carbon content inside of the sediment). Nematodes dominated (75.7 %) in meiobenthos community under the layer of A. tobuchiensis where concentration of silt particles was 12 %. Representatives of the family Comesomatidae were dominant. Low index of species diversity and high Simpson domination index were detected in this community. Under a layer of A. tobuchiensis with the thickness of 30 cm concentration of the silt particles was 5.39 %; nematodes density was low and made 32.1 % of the general density of meiobenthos. Species of the families Xyalidae and Monoposthiidae were dominant. Outside of A. tobuchiensis, field percentage of silt particles was minimal (3.1 %) and representatives of families Cyatholaimidae and Axonolaimidae dominated. The specific structure of nematodes in this type of the ground is characterized by high index of species diversity and low level of domination.

Magnetic random access memory (MRAM), based on magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) and CMOS, is one of the best semiconductor memories because it can provide nonvolatility, fast access time, unlimited read/write endurance, low operating voltage and high storage density. For the realization of high density MRAM, the etching of MTJ stack with good properties is one of a key process. Recently, there has been great interest in the MTJ stack using MgO as barrier layer for its huge room temperature MR ratio. The use of MgO barrier layer will undoubtedly accelerate the development of MTJ stack for MRAM. In this study, high-density plasma reactive ion etching of MgO films was investigated in an inductively coupled plasma of $Cl_2$/Ar gas mixes. The etch rate, etch selectivity and etch profile of this magnetic film were examined on vary gas concentration. As the $Cl_2$ gas concentration increased, the etch rate of MgO monotonously decreased and etch slop was slanted. The effective of etch parameters including coil rf power, dc-bais voltage, and gas pressure on the etch profile of MgO thin film was explored, At high coil rf power, high dc-bais voltage, low gas pressure, the etching of MgO displayed better etch profiles. Finally, the clean and vertical etch sidewall of MgO films was achieved using $Cl_2$/Ar plasma at the optimized etch conditions.

Recently, the demand for Zn-Ni electrogalvanized steel sheets for home appliances and automobiles is increasing. Products should have a thick plating (30 to 40 g/m²) on both side with a thin thickness (≤ 0.8 mm) and the highest surface quality. By a high current density operation, current is concentrated in the edge part of the steel sheet, resulting in large surface dent defects due to dendritic plating. This can lead to a low productivity due to low line speed operation. To solve this problem, this study aimed to identify factors influencing dendritic plating. A cylindrical electroplating device was manufactured. Effects of cut edge shape and thickness of steel plate, current density, temperature, flow rate, electrolyte concentration, and pH on dendrite generation of Zn-Ni electroplating were examined. To investigate effect of edge shape of the steel sheet, the steel sheet was manufactured using three processing methods: shearing, polishing after shearing, and laser. Relative effects thickness and cut edge processing methods of the steel plate, current density, temperature, flow rate, electrolyte concentration, and pH of plating solution on dendrite plating were investigated. To prevent dendrite plating, an edge mask was manufactured and its application effect was investigated.

This study was designed to determine changes of serum glucose and lipid levels in noninsulin dependent diabetes mellitus patients during different doses of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)-rich fish oil supplementation. All patients had a fasting blood glucose of less than 180mg/dl, a LDL-cholesterol of less than 160mg/dl, and a triglyceride of more than 160mg/dl. None had clinical evidence of renal, hepatic or coronary vascular disease. Sixteen patients served as control. Seven patients ingested 2.00g of fish oil(low dose group), consisting of 0.30g eicosapentaenoic acid(EPA) and 0.55g DHA. The group of modest dose(n=9) was provided 3.91g of fish oil, consisting 0.59g EPA and 1.08g DHA. After 4 weeks, serum triglyceride concentration showed a mild but nonsignificant elevation in control group, a 9% decrease(194 to 177mg/dl) in the group of low dose of fish oil and a 28% decrease(206 to 161mg/dl) in the group of modest dose. The level of high density lipoprotein(HDL), HDL2, HDL3 and total cholesterol in all groups were not changed. There was a mild increase in malondialdehyde and low density lipoprotein(LDL)-cholesterol concentration and decrease in $\alpha$-tocopherol concentration. However, these changes were not significant.
