Multi-pass wet wire drawing process is used to produce fine wire in the industrial field. The production of fine wire through multi-pass wet wire drawing process with appropriate dies pass schedule would be impossible without understanding the relationship among many process parameters such as material properties, dies reduction, friction conditions, drawing speed etc However, in the industrial field, dies pass schedule of multi-pass wet wire drawing process has been executed by trial and error of experts. This study investigated the relationship among many process parameters quantitatively to obtain the important process information fur the appropriate pass schedule of multi-pass wet wire drawing process. Therefore, it is possible to predict the many important process parameters of multi-pass wet wire drawing process such as dies reduction, machine reduction, drawing force, backtension force, slip rate, slip velocity rate, power etc. The validity of the analyzed drawing force was verified by FE simulation and multi-pass wet wire drawing experiment. Also, pass redesign was performed based on the analyzed results, and the wire breakage between the original pass schedule and the redesigned pass schedule was compared through experiment.

Carbon costs, either in the form of a carbon tax or through permit prices in an emissions trading scheme, would ultimately be reflected in higher electricity prices. This price "pass-through" is very critical to the effective design of new policies to curb the amount of carbon emissions. This paper sets out in a structured way the factors that determine price pass-through and how carbon costs would impact on the electricity market and the existing coal-fired power plants. It is shown that pass-through can vary drastically if the underlying dispatch potential of generators varies significantly across alternative emissions reduction scenarios. It can also vary depending on the availability of competing cleaner forms of generation. Pass-through as a measure of business performance is therefore hard to generalize across different circumstances and should be interpreted carefully.

Wire drawing process of the high carbon steel with a high speed is usually conducted at room temperature using a number of passes or reductions through consequently located dies. In the multi-pass drawing process, temperature rise in each pass affects the mechanical properties of the final product such as bending, torsion, and tensile property, etc. This temperature rise during the deformation promotes the occurrence of delamination, and deteriorates the torsion property and durability of wire. This study investigates the occurrence of delamination in the wire through the torsion test and the evaluation of wire temperature. The excessive wire temperature leads to the occurrence of the delamination. Based on the calculation of the wire temperature, a new pass schedule, which can prevent the delamination due to the excessive wire temperature rise, is designed through the isothermal pass schedule.

Drawing process of the high carbon steel wire with high speed is usually performed at room temperature using multi pass. Tn the multi pass drawing, temperature rise affects the mechanical properties of the final product. The excessive temperature rise during the deformation promotes the occurrence of delamination, and deteriorates the torsion property and durability of wire. This paper investigates the occurrence of delamination in the wire through the torsion test and the evaluation of wire temperature. The excessive wire temperature ieads to the occurrence of delamination. Based on the calculation of the wire temperature, a new pass schedule, that can prevent the delamination due to the excessive wire temperature rise, is designed through the isothermal pass schedule.

This paper discusses the design of monetary policy in a New Keynesian small open economy framework by introducing nominal wage rigidities and incomplete exchange rate pass-through on import prices. Three main findings are summarized. First, with the existence of an incomplete exchange rate pass-through and nominal wage rigidities, the optimal policy is to seek to minimize the output gap, the variance of domestic price and wage inflation, as well as deviations from the law of one price. Second, the CPI inflation targeting Taylor rule is welfare enhancing when there is a technological shock to the economy. The exception occurs when there is a foreign income shock, which minimizes welfare losses under the domestic inflation targeting Taylor rule. Last, two stylized Taylor rules turn out to be a bad approximation, but the modified Taylor rules that respond to the unemployment gap rather than the output gap are a closer approximation to the optimal policy.

The effect of change in exchange rates on an economy is very important, especially, to a small open economy like South Korea. I explore whether Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) have positive influences on exchange rate-pass through import price of import market for fishery products in South Korea. Competition among FTA partners is enhanced after FTAs are effective. I expect that the extent to which are exchange rate pass-through (hereafter, ERPT) into import price of fishery products (in terms of Korea currency) would be reduced since the import market for fishery products in South Korea is an oligopolistic market. Specifically, I investigate two research questions with six South Korea's FTA partners-Norway, Thailand, Peru, U.S., China and Vietnam. First, whether the extent to which are exchange rate pass-through into import price of fishery products from six FTA partners would decrase in the post-FTA era; seconds, the size of reduction has a negative relation with the size of their market share in the import market for fishery products in South Korea if it decreases. The empirical results indicate that the degree of ERPT into import price from other FTA partners than Norway has been reduced after FTA, statistically and significantly; however, I do not find the evidence that the size of reduction is related to their market share. The findings in this study imply that FTAs have negative effects on producers' economic welfare in South Korea's fishery industry by reducing the extent to which are exchange rate pass-through as well as reducing tariff barriers.

It is well known that tire/road factors have a large influence on overall tire performance. In this paper, the basic study on the effects of tire/road factors on the pass-by noise performance of tire labeling has been carried out through experimental tests. The tire pass-by noise is affected by road characteristic factors, especially greatly influenced by road friction coefficient, and the next dominant factor is road chipping size. For several authorized pass-by noise test tracks, the pass-by noise correlation test has been done to know the test site effect, which results in 2~3dB(A) variation of pass-by noise level. Finally, it is shown that the winter tire is differently influenced by the pass-by noise test track characteristics, as compared to all-season tire and summer tire.

Generally, fine high carbon steel wire is produced using a multi-pass drawing process with speeds over 1000 m/min. The productivity of the wire drawing mainly depends on achieving the highest drawing speed without breaking the wire. In the multi-pass drawing, as the final drawing speed increases, the temperature rises several hundred Celsius. High temperature of wire increases the brittleness and leads to breaks. The objective of this study is to design pass schedule and wire drawing machine for superhigh speed. In the drawing experiment, it was possible to increase the productivity through the increase in final speed from 1100 m/min to 2000 m/min.

The Production of fine wire through wet wire drawing process with appropriate pass schedule would be impossible without understanding of relationship among many process parameters. Therefore, this paper investigates the relationship among process parameters of wet wire drawing process. In this study, it is possible to obtain the important basic data that can be used in the pass schedule of multi-pass wet wire drawing process. In order to verify the effectiveness of the analysis, pass redesign was performed based on the result of analysis to reduce the wire breakage. The wire breakage between the conventional pass schedule and the redesigned pass schedule was compared by the FE analysis and the wet win drawing experiment.

A one-pass rice whitener with hard metal blades was developed to solve the problems of the existing one-pass rice whitener. The developed one-pass rice whitener was tested and improved through various milling experiments. It showed high performance such as the capacity of 3.5 t/h, the energy consumption of $1.0 kWh/100kg$, milled rice recovery of 91.6%, broken rice rate of 2.2%, the crack rate of 1.9% at the 750 rpm of the roller shaft, compared with those other domestic and foreign one-pass rice whiteners. Especially, it could whiten broun rice of high moisture (16～l7%) with water sprayed at low internal pressure of less than $0.2 kg/cm^2$ and low temperature due to the characteristics of the cutting part composed of 24 hard metal blades. The developed one-pass rice whitener was industrilized and distributed to some rice processing complexs in one fourth price compared with that of imported one-pass rice whiteners.
