Aerodynamic analysis study was performed on 14 normal subjects (2 males, 12 females) with nonsense syllables composed of Korean bilabial stops (/p, p', $p^{h}$) and their preceding and/or following vowels, /i, a, u/. That is, [pi, p'i, $p^{h}i$, pa, p'a, $p^{h}a$, pu, p'u, $p^{h}u$, ipi, apa, upu, $ip^{h}i$, $ap^{h}a$, $up^{h}u$, ip'i, ap'a, up'u]. All measures were taken and analysed using Aerophone II voice function analyzer and included peak air pressure, mean air pressure, maximum flow rate, volume, mean SPL and phonatory SPL. A t-test and one-way ANOVA were employed for analysis. A post-hoc analysis was performed with Scheffe and Bonferroni. The results were as follows: First, MSPL. and MAP of /p, p', $p^{h}$/ were significantly different in different positions (initial and medial position). In addition, different vowel environment also produced significantly different aerodynamic characteristics those consonants. Especially the lax consonant /p/ was significantly different /i, a, u/ vowel environments. The tense consonant /p'/ was significantly different only /i/ vowel environment.

Recently, researchers are developing a new, clean, renewable and sustainable energy to the industrial areas and the residential areas. Solar cell and fuel cell energy are presented in this paper. The paper shows the P-I and I-V characteristics of fuel cells which are connected in parallel and series. And the voltage drop of internal resistance of the fuel cell decreases with the increasing of the current of the fuel cell. A voltage drop at the internal resistance is increased according to the current, thus the terminal voltage is decreased. The internal resistance is calculated $0.3[\Omega]$ from maximum power transfer condition.

The effect of a homolactic inoculant containing a blend of Lactobacillus plantarum, Pediococcus acidilactici and Enterococcus faecium or, the anionic surfactant, sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS), alone or in combination on fermentation characteristics, aerobic stability and in situ DM, OM and NDF degradability of barley silage was investigated. Barley (Hordeum vulgare, L.) was harvested (45% DM), chopped and treated with water at 24 ml/kg forage (Control), inoculant at $1.09{\times}10^5$ cfu/g forage (I), SDS at 0.125% (wt/wt) of forage (S) or with the inoculant ($1.09{\times}10^5$ cfu/g) plus SDS (0.125% wt/wt; I+S). The treated forages were ensiled in triplicate mini silos and opened for chemical and microbiological analyses on d 1, 2, 3, 7, 14, 42 and 77. Silage samples from d 77 were opened and aerobically exposed for 7 d. The in situ rumen degradability characteristics of silage DM, OM and NDF were also determined. The terminal concentration of NDF in S and I+S was lower (p<0.001) than in other treatments. Lactate concentration was higher (p<0.001) and the rate and extent of pH decline were greater (p<0.001) in I and I+S than S and Control silages. A homolactic pathway of fermentation in I and I+S was evidenced by reduced (p<0.001) water-soluble carbohydrates concentration, higher lactate (p<0.01), lower acetate (p<0.01) and lower pH values (p<0.001) than in S and Control silages. All silages remained stable over 7 d of exposure to air as indicated by lower temperatures and moulds, and by non-detectable yeast populations. The treated silages had lower DM and OM degradability than in the Control but NDF degradation characteristics of I+S were improved compared to other treatments. It is concluded that the inoculant alone improved the fermentation characteristics whereas the combination of the inoculant with SDS improved both fermentation and NDF degradability of barley silage.

Solar, as an ideal renewable energy, it has inexhaustible, clean and safe characteristics. In order to improve the photovoltaic system efficiency and utilize the solar energy more fully, and the DC current and DC power vary with the irradiation and module temperature, it is necessary to study the characteristics of photovoltaic I-V and P-V according to the external factors. This paper presents the analysis of characteristics of photovoltaic I-V and P-V according to the irradiation and the module temperature. The results show that the DC current and the DC power of the photovoltaic system are increased along with the increasing values of irradiation.

To investigate the ZnO LED which are interested in the next generation of short wavelength LEDs and Lasers, the ZnO thin films were deposited by RF magnetron sputtering system. The p-type ZnO thin film, fabricated by means of the ampoule-tube method, was used to make the ZnO p-n junction, and its characteristics was analyzed. The ampoule-tube method was used to make the p-type ZnO based on the As diffusion, and the hall measurement was used to confirm that the p-type is formed. the current-voltage characteristics of the ZnO p-n junction were measured to confirm the rectification characteristics of a typical p-n junction and the low leakage voltage characteristics. Analysis of ZnO LED V-I curve will provide a very useful technology for producing the UV ZnO LED and ZnO-based devices.

CoSi$_2$/p+/n diodes(bilayer diodes) were fabricated by using epitaxial CoSi$_2$grown from Co/Ti bilayer as a diffusion source. The I-V characteristics of p+/n diodes were measured and compared with those of diode made from Co monolayer (monolayer diode). Monolayer diodes showed typical p+n junction characteristics with the leakage current of as low as 10$^{-12}$ A and forward current 6-orders higher than the leakage current, when drive-in annealed at 90$0^{\circ}C$ for 20 sec.. On the other hand, bilayer diodes showed the Schottky-like behaviors with forward currents rather higher than those of monolyer diodes, but with too high leakage currents, when drive-in annealed at $700^{\circ}C$ or higher. However, when the annealing temperature was lowered to $700^{\circ}C$ and annealing time was increased to 60 sec., the leakage current was reduced to 10$^{-11}$ A and thus sho3wed typical diode characteristics. The high leakage currents for diodes annealed at $700^{\circ}C$ or higher was attributed to Shannon contacts formed due to unremoved Co-Ti-Si precipitates. But when annealed at 50$0^{\circ}C$, B ions diffused in the direction of the surface layer, and thus the leakage currents were reduced by removing Shannon contacts.

A method for computing effectiv ebandwidth of aggregated varable bit rate (VBR) moving picture experts group (MPEG) video traffic is proposed. To compute statistical characteristics of aggregated MPEG traffic, first we split input MPEG traffic into I, B, and P frame traffics and aggregate respective I, B, and P frame traffics according to the frame type. Second statisticsal characteristics of the aggregated MPEG traffic are obtained using those of aggregated I, B, and P frame traffics. The effective bandwidth of the aggregated I frame traffic is computed by using the gaussian bound. Using the modified equivalent capacity, we obtain the effective bandwidths of aggregated B and P frame traffics and then compute the effective bandwidth of the combined B and P frame traffic. Finally the effective bandwidth of the aggregated MPEG traffic is computed by adding the gaussian bound of the aggregated I frame traffic and modifed equivalent capacity of combined B and P frame traffic. Computer simulation shows that the proposed method estimates effective bandwidth of the aggregated MPEG traffic well.

These experiments were conducted to investigate general enzymatic characteristics of two forms(glucoamylase I and glucoamylase II) of the purified glucoamylase produced by Rhizopus oryzae. Molecular weights of glucoamylase I and glucoamylase II estimated by Sephadex G-100gel filtration, were approximately 101,000 and 115,000, respectively, and those estimated by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis being 120,000 and 127,000, respectively. Isoelectric points of the above enzyme were pH 7.25 and pH 7.75. The optimum temperature was $50^{\circ}C$ and the enzyme was stable below $45^{\circ}C$. Optimum pH of both glucoamylase I and glucoamylase II was about pH 5.0. The stable pH range of them were pH 3.5-8.0 and 4.5-8.0, respectively. Michaelis constants of glucoamylase I and glucoamylase II toward souluble starch were 4.545 mg/ml and 5.560 mg/ml, respectively. $Hg^{++}$, $Pb^{++}$, p-CMB and IAA were inhibitors of glucoamylase I and $Hg^{++}$, $Mn^{++}$, p-CMB and IAA were inhibitors of glucoamylase II.

The characteristics of the plasmid pKU10 isolated from Pseudomonas putida KU816 were investigated and its restriction map was constructed. The pKU10 plasmid was a small R plasmid carrying genes for resistance to ampicillin, tetracyclin, and chloramphenicol, and cured by treatment with mitomycin C. The molecular size of pKU10 was estimated to be 9.4Kb. Pseudomonas strains and E. coli cells could be transformed for antibiotic resistance characters specified by pKU10 plasmid DNA. By incompatibility test with other plasmids, pKU10 is grouped into IncP-1. EcoRI, XhoI, SalI, BglII, and SmaI cleaved pKU10 once, while PstI cleaved at two sites, and HindIII cleaved at six sites. The restriction map was constructed by partial and complete digestion of the purified plasmid DNA with single, double, or triple restriction enzymes. Thus, pKU10 is expected to be used for a cloning vector in Pseudomonas cells.

Photovoltaic (PV) energy is a renewable and harmless energy which offers many advantages. However, solar energy is an extreme intermittent and inconstant energy source. In order to improve the photovoltaic system efficiency and utilize the solar energy more fully, and the DC current and DC power vary with the irradiation and module temperature, it is necessary to study the characteristics of photovoltaic I-V and P-V according to the external factors. This paper presents the analysis of characteristics of photovoltaic I-V and P-V according to the irradiation and the module temperature. The results show that the DC current and the DC power of the photovoltaic system are increased along with the increasing values of irradiation and module temperature.
