An experimental study was carried out to obtain the fundamental data about the effect of sub-chamber on pre-mixture combustion. A eve (constant volume combustor) divided into a sub-chamber and a main chamber was used in this experiment. The volume of the sub-chamber was varid trom $0.45\%$ to $1.4\%$ about the whole combustion chamber. The sub-chamber has twelve narrow radial passage holes and a spark plug to ignite the pre-mixture. As the ignition occurs in the sub-chamber by a spark discharge, burned and unburned gas including a great number of radicals is injected into the main chamber, then the multi-point ignition occurs in the main chamber. The combustion pressure is measured to calculate the burning velocity mainly as a function of the sub-chamber volume, the diameter of the passage holes, and the equivalence ratio. In the case of RI (radical ignition) methods, the overall burning time became very short and the maximum burning pressure was slightly increased as compared with that of SI (spark ignition) method. The optimum design value of the sub-chamber is near 0.11 $cm^{-l}$ in the ratio of total area of holes to the sub-chamber volume.

It is requested to be evaluated whether environmental change in marine traffic passage by maintenance work affect ship handling, safety, when re-design of traffic passage is planned. In the maintenance work, it is also important to evaluate the change of risk and also benefits. However, in a current evaluation index, it is difficult to evaluate the benefit. The recently developed safety index that is led by employing the Unsafe Ship-handling situations model (US-model) is able to estimate risk level of marine accident in a process of a ship handling. We have already reported the relation of the ratio of 10-3 in harbors (Yokohama, Kobe, and Osaka in Japan) [1]. In this study, we acquired the relation of the ratio between the US value and the marine accident at a narrow waterway; Kurushima Strait in Japan, using a ship handling simulator. And we experimented to estimate a marine accident reduction achieved by the maintenance work of the altered shape of passage.

Considerably large phenotypic and genotypic variations for the important agronomic traits were found in a soybean population consisted with 825 local lines collected in Korea. Genetic coefficient of variation, heritability, and genetic gain for seed weight, plant height. and number of pods per plant were relatively high. Maturity showed a high heritability value with a low genetic gain and the result may be due to the narrow range of maturity date of the population studied.

The nominal structural stress calculation method proposed by Radaj has included some problems as follows: (a) How the value of the diameter D is decided in the method; (b) It is not possible to estimate nominal structural stress of the spot welded joints with the balanced sheet in-plane load that no general loads are obtained by FE shell analysis. In this paper, the new method for calculating nominal structural stress was proposed to solve above-mentioned problems. The proposed method calculates the nominal structural stress through the circular plate theory in theory of elasticity. This theoretical analysis uses not only general loads but also nodal displacements around spot welding provided by FE shell analysis as boundary condition. Fatigue test data of various spot-welded joints could be arranged in a narrow bandwidth on S-N chart using the nominal structural stresses calculated by proposed method. The fatigue life prediction method using the proposed method for calculating nominal structural stress is useful for the prior evaluation technique that can predict the fatigue life of spot welding by CAE.

This study was aimed at finding out the effect of herbicide quinclorac (3, 7-dichloro-8- quinoline carbxylic acid) on tobacco culture in paddy soil. Herbicides quinclorac(Pozol, Pulta and Tomata) was randomly applied to subdivided paddy soil in Sep. 1992, and tobacco seedlings were transplanted to the field when seedling averaged 2cm in height in April 1993. Experiment plots were divided into non - treatment, standard(3kg/10a) and two times(6kg/10a) in amounts for each three herbicides. The symptoms of damage from herbicide were sighted when the plants had developed 8-9 leaves at 30 day after transplanting in standard amount plots, and when the plants had developed 4-5 leaves at 20 days after transplanting in two times treatments. The new leaves from damaged plants were bended out, and leaf color changed from green to dark - green, and then gradually advanced to abnormal narrow leaves. Standard treatments of herbicides showed a decrease of 18% in price per kg, 18% in yield and 33% in value per 10a than those of non - treatment, while two times treatments showed a decrease of 33%, 29%, 52% compared with non - treatment, respectively.

Laser welding by fiber laser accompanied by a lot of spatter and humping bead. This is because the deep and narrow keyhole usually form due to high beam quality. So the weld bead is formed defects, because the plasma jet with a high vapor pressure make the molten pool on keyhole wall scattered. For such a reason, unstable behavior of keyhole is difficult to monitor laser welding by using the laser induced plasma. Mostly, fiber laser welding of thick plates most be influenced by this effect. Therefore, fiber laser welding has been difficult to apply the sole. Thus, laser welding monitoring based on plasma measurements have much difficulty in measurements and analysis of signal. In this study, influence of the plasma emission signal according to welding speed and laser power in fiber laser welding analysed by using RMS and FFT analysis. We can verify that RMS value of the plasma emission signal changes with welding parameters in fiber laser welding, and aspect ratio greater than 1, the peak of FFT frequency had been moved in accordance with welding parameter.

The internal invertase of Rhodosporidium toruloids mating type a cells was purified to a single band on SDS-PAGE from cell-free extract by acid precipitation, ion exchange chromatogaphy andgel filtration. The determined molecular weight of he purified enzyme was about 95,000 by gel filtration and 100,000 daltons on SDS-polyacryamide gel electrophoresis. This enzyme didn't show any activity change by several metal ions except 15.4% decrease by {TEX}$Mn^{2+}${/TEX} and was strongly inhibited by 2-mercaptoethanol and SDS. The invertase maintained its activity at high level until 70℃, but inactivated at 80℃ almost completely. The optimal temperature and pH of the enzyme were about 60℃ and pH 5.0, respectively. The stable pH range of invertase was narrow from pH 3.0 to 6.0. The Km value and isoelectric point of enzyme were 3.4×{TEX}$10^{3}${/TEX} M, pH 4.4, respectively.

Optical properties of InAs/GaAs submonolayer-quantum dot (SML-QD) have been investigated using excitation intensity ($I_{ex}$)- and temperature-dependent photoluminescence (PL). At a low temperature (13 K) strong PL was observed at 1.420 eV with a very narrow full-width at half maximum, of 7.09 meV. The results of the $I_{ex}$ dependence show that the PL intensities increase with increasing $I_{ex}$. The enhancement factors (k) of PL increment as a function of $I_{ex}$ are 3.3 and 1.22 at low and high $I_{ex}$ regime, respectively. The high k value at low $I_{ex}$, implies that the activation energy of the SML-QDs is low. The calculated activation energy of the SML-QDs from temperature dependence is 30 meV.

We studied the structural and electrical properties of $SrRuO_3$ thin films grown on $SrTiO_3$ (110) substrate. High resolution X-ray diffraction measurement of the grown film showed 1) very sharp peaks for $SrRuO_3$ film with a very narrow rocking curve with FWHM = $0.045^{\circ}$ and 2) coherent growth behavior having the same in-plane lattice constants of the film as those of the substrate. The resisitivity data showed good metallic behavior; ${\rho}$ = 63(205) ${\mu}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ at 5 (300) K with a residual resistivity ratio of ~3. The observed kink at ${\rho}(T)$ showed that the ferromagnetic transition temperature was ~10 K higher than that of $SrRuO_3$ thin film grown on $SrTiO_3$ (001) substrate. The observed rather lower RRR value could be partially due to a very small amount of Ru vacancy generally observed in $SrRuO_3$ thin films grown by PLD method and is evident in the larger unit-cell volume compared to that of stoichiometric thin film.

The magnetic properties and electronic structures of the B20 crystal structure MnGe and MnSi were investigated using the density functional theory with local density approximation. The low symmetry of the B20 crystal structure plays a very important role to make electromagnetic characteristics of these materials. The important result of the calculations is that it can be observed the appearance of a pair of gaps in the density of states near the Fermi level in both compounds. These features are results from d-band splitting by the low symmetry of the crystal field from B20 crystal structure. It can be seen that there is half-metallic characteristics from the density of states in both compounds. The calculation shows that the value of magnetic moment of MnGe is 5 times bigger than that of MnSi even though they have same crystal structure. The electronic structures of paramagnetic case have a very narrow indirect gap just above the Fermi level in both compounds. These gaps acquire some significance in establishing the stability of the ferromagnetic states within the local density approximation. Calculation shows that the Mn 3d character dominates the density of states near the Fermi level in both materials.
