Tensile and low cycle fatigue tests on prior cold worked 3l6L stainless steel were carried out at various temperatures ftom room temperature to 650$^{\circ}C$. Fatigue resistance was decreased with increasing temperature and decreasing strain rate. Cyclic plastic deformation, creep, oxidation and interactions with each other are thought to be responsible for the reduction in fatigue resistance. Currently favored life prediction models were examined and it was found that it is important to select a proper life prediction parameter since stress-strain relation strongly depends on temperature. A phenomenological life prediction model was proposed to account for the influence of temperature on fatigue life and assessed by comparing with experimental result. LCF failure mechanism was investigated by observing fracture surfaces of LCF failed specimens with SEM.

Photosynthetic responses to dehydration were examined by the simulataneous measurement of O2 evolution and chlorophyll (Chl) fluorescence in green pepper leaves. Dehydration was induced by immersing the plant roots directly in the Hoagland solution containing varying concentration (2-30%) of polyethylene glycol(PEG-6000) . Water potential of the leaf was decreased time-and concentation -dependently by PEG-treatment. The decrease in water potential of leaf was correlated with the decrease in both the maximal photosynthesis (Pmax) and quantum yield of O2 evolution, but Pmax dropped more rapidly than quantum yield at all water deficit conditions tested. However, Chl fluorescence parameters were not affected much. Dehydration did not change the initial fluorescence (Fo) and maximum photochemical efficiency(Fv/Fm) of photosystem(PS) II. Both the photochemical quenching (qP) and non-photochemical quenching(NPQ) were not changed by dehydration under low PFR(50 $\mu$mols m-2s-1 ). In contrast, under high PFR(270$\mu$mols m-2s-1)qP was slightly decreased while NPQ was greatly increased. The fast induction kinetics of Chl fluroecence showed no change in Chl fluorescence pattern by dehydration at high PFR (640 $\mu$mols m-2s-1 ), but exhibited a significant drop in peak level(Fp)at low PRFR (70$\mu$mols m-2s-1 ). PS I oxidation and reduction kinetics revealed normal reduction but delayed oxidation to P-700+, suggesting no lesionin electron flow from PSII to PSI , but impaired electron transport to NADP+,These results suggest that water stress caused by PEG-treatment results in the reduction of photosynthesis, promarily due to the reducted electron trasport from PSI to NADP+ or hampered subsequent steps involving Calvin Cycle.

본 연구에서는 1-D 해석 프로그램인 AMESim을 활용하여 열전소자와 디젤엔진을 모델링하여 이를 New European Driving Cycle (NEDC) 운전모드에서 구동시킨 자동차에서 나오는 폐열을 이용해 열전소자로 발전을 하고 이에 따른 결과를 분석해보는 연구를 수행하였다. 열전소자 모델링 시 배기폐열 회수율 및 전기 에너지 변환률 뿐만 아니라 재료적 특성을 고려하여 열전달부분에 초점을 맞추었다. 또한, 디젤 산화 촉매(DOC)를 설계하여 열전소자로 인한 폐열회수가 디젤 산화촉매 활성화에 미치는 영향과, 그 결과 배기가스의 성분별 증감을 조사하였다. 열전소자를 이용한 폐열회수는 자동차 연비개선에 도움이 되지만, 배기가스의 온도를 떨어뜨려 촉매 활성화에 영향을 미치게 되면, CO와 HC 배출이 최대 14% 증가하는 것을 관찰하였다. 따라서, 열전소자를 이용한 배기 폐열 회수 시스템 개발 시에 배기에 미치는 영향을 고려해야 한다.

LiMn$_2$O$_4$-based spinels has been studied extensively as positive electrode materials for rechargeable lithium and lithium ion batteries. We describe here that LiMn$_2$O$_4$ cathode active materials is preparated by sol-gel process using water as solvent, which often yields inorganic oxides of excellent phase purity and well-controlled stoichiometry. Using this process, it has been possible to synthesize phase-pure crystalline spinel LiMn$_2$O$_4$ by calcining the appropriate precursors in air at 80$0^{\circ}C$ for several hours. The influence of different time have also been explored. LiMn$_2$O$_4$ preparated in the present study exhibit the single phase of cubic and active reaction at 400 ~ $600^{\circ}C$. Electrochemical studies show that the this method- synthesized materials appear to present reversible oxidation and reduction reactions at 3.0V ~ 4.5V and cycle stability during 50 cycle.

The ROS-producing potency of chromium compounds of several oxidation states were determined in the H4 cells. $K_2Cr_2O_7$ as Cr (VI), synthetic Cr (V) compounds and Cr (III) as TPP produced high level of ROS. However, ROS values of Cr-picolinate as Cr (III), CrCl$_2$, CrCI$_2$, were almost equal to the control. The effects of physiological antioxidants compounds which react with free radicals were examined for their effects on chromate-induced production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in A549 cells after the addition of $K_2Cr_2O_7$. The compounds used were vitamin C (ascorbate), vitamin E ($\alpha$-tocopherol), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase. The preincubation of ascorbate (200uM) with A549 cells for 20hr resulted in a significant reduction of hexavalent chromate(100uM) induced ROS. However, there is no effects of preincubation of the cells with vitamin E succinate (10 and 20uM, 20hr) on the ROS production. Also, the effects of Cr (VI) on the cell cycle of A549 cells was measured by adding the DNA intercalating agent, propidium iodide. S phase of the cell cycle was increased by the chromium (VI) compounds up to 20uM indicating toxicity or possible mitogenic action of the cell. The shoulder in Go/G1 phase at 20uM Cr (VI) with 24 hr treatment indicates apoptosis.

Environmental problems like global warming have now become important issues that should be considered in all industries, including construction. In South Korea, many studies have been conducted to achieve the government's goals of reduction in environmental impacts. However, the research on buildings has only focused on CO₂ emission as a research target despite the fact that other environmental impacts resulting from ozone depletion and acidification should also be considered, in addition to global warming. In this regard, this study attempted to propose assessment criteria and methods to evaluate the environmental performance of the structures from various aspects. The environmental impact category can be divided into global impacts, regional impacts, and local impacts. First, global impacts include global warming, ozone layer depletion, and abiotic resource depletion, while regional impacts include acidification, eutrophication, and photochemical oxidation. In addition, noise and vibration occurring in the building construction phase are defined as local impacts. The evaluation methods on the eight environmental impacts will be proposed after analyzing existing studies, and the methods representing each environmental load as monetary value will be presented. The methods presented in this study will present benefits that can be obtained through green buildings with a clear quantitative assessment on structures. Ultimately, it is expected that if the effects of green buildings are clearly presented through the findings of this study, the greening of structures will be actively expanded.

The Sn - graphite composites were prepared by chemical encapsulation method for anode materials in Li-ion batteries. EDS and XRD analysis confirmed the presence of Sn in the graphite structure. Cyclic voltammometry (CV) measurement shows extra reduction and oxidation peaks, which might to be related to the formations of $Li_xSn$ alloy compounds. Graphite-tin composite electrodes demonstrated higher Lithium storage capacities than graphite electrodes. Due to the nature of fine Sn particles on graphite surface, the graphite-tin composite electrodes have shown a good cycle properties.

Tensile and LCF(low cycle fatigue) tests were carried out in air at wide temperature range 20$^{\circ}C$-750$^{\circ}C$ and strain rates of 1${\times}$10$\^$-4//s-1${\times}$10$\^$-2/ to ascertain the influence of strain rate on tensile and LCF properties of prior cold worked 316L stainless steel, especially focused on the DSA(dynamic strain aging) regime. Dynamic strain aging induced the change of tensile properties such as strength and ductility in the temperature region 250$^{\circ}C$-600$^{\circ}C$ and this temperature region well coincided with the negative strain rate sensitivity regime. Cyclic stress response at all test conditions was characterized by the initial hardening during a few cycles, followed by gradual softening until final failure. Temperature and strain rate dependence on cyclic softening behavior appears to result from the change of the cyclic plastic deformation mechanism and DSA effect. The DSA regimes between tensile and LCF loading conditions in terms of the negative strain rate sensitivity were well consistent with each other. The drastic reduction in fatigue resistance at elevated temperature was observed, and it was attributed to the effects of oxidation, creep and dynamic strain aging or interactions among them. Especially, in the DSA regime, dynamic strain aging accelerated the reduction of fatigue resistance by enhancing crack initiation and propagation.

Hydrogen production by a 2-step water-splitting thermochemical cycle using metal oxides (ferrites) redox pairs and $CH_4$ have been studied in this experiment. The ferrites were reacted with $CH_4$ at $700{\sim}800^{\circ}C$ to produce CO, $H_2$ and various reduced phases (reduction step); these were then reoxidized with water vapor to generate $H_2$ in water-splitting step (oxidation step) at $600{\sim}700^{\circ}C$. The reduced ferrites, Ni-FeO and Ni-Fe alloy showed respectively different reactivity for $H_2$ formation from $H_2O$. In reduction reaction at $800^{\circ}C$, carbon was deposited on surface of Ni-ferrite due to $CH_4$ decomposition. This reduced phase containing carbon, which was taken quite different feature from other phase, produced $H_2$, CO, $CO_2$ by reacting with $H_2O$ at $600^{\circ}C$. The amount of $H_2$ evolved using reduced phase containing carbon was much higher than that of other phase.

Shewanella putrefaciens DK-1은 그람음성, 통성 혐기성 세균으로 $NO_{3}$, Fe(III), Mn(IV), humic acid와 같은 다양한 전자수용체를 이용한다. S. putrefaciens DK-1의 전자공여체의 이용능력은 제한적이며, lactate나 formate는 좋은 전자공여체로 이용되지만 acetate나 toluene은 이용하지 못하였다. 다양한 전자수용체간의 경쟁을 살펴보기 위해 전자수용체로 Fe(III)와 같이 $NO_{3}^{-}$, $NO_{2}^{-}$를 넣어 주었을 매 Fe(III)의 환원은 저해되었다. 또한 5. putrefaciens DK-1은 전자수용체로 토양에 광범위하게 존재하는 humic acid를 이용하였으며, 환원된 humic acid는 질산염에 의해서 다시 산화되었다. Fe(III) 환원능이 있는 환경 시료를 이용하여 탄소, 질소, 인과 같은 제한 요인이 Fe(III) 환원세균의 활성에 미치는 효과를 조사하였다. 천호지의 저질토와 대호의 농토에 각각 탄소원, 질소원, 인을 첨가해 주었을 경우 S. putrefaciens DK-1과 탄소원을 동시에 첨가해 주었을 때 가장 높은 철 환원능을 보여주었다.
