  • Field and nutrient cultures of American ginseng (Panax quinquefolius L.) were used to establish foliar symptoms related to boron (B) concentration in leaves and soils, and to evaluate radish as a time-saving model system for B nutrition. Application of excess B, 8 kg/ha versus the recommended 1.5 kg/ha, to field plantings of 2-, 3-, and 4-yr-old American ginseng plants just prior to crop emergence caused, within 4 wk after crop emergence, leaf symptoms of chlorosis followed by necrosis starting at the tips and progressing along the margins. The B concentration in leaves of 2-4-yr-old plants receiving 1.5 kg/ha Bwas $30{\mu}g/g$ dry mass compared to $460{\mu}g/g$ dry mass where 8 kg/ha B was applied. Similarly, B concentration in soils receiving the lower B concentration was 1.8 mg/g dry mass and $2.2-2.8{\mu}g/g$ dry mass where the higher B concentration was applied. Application of 8 kg/ha B reduced the dry yield of 3rd-yr roots by 20% from 2745 kg/ha to 2196 kg/ha and 4th-yr roots by 26% from 4130 kg/ha to 3071 kg/ha. Ginseng seedlings and radish were grown under greenhouse conditions in nutrient culture with four B concentrations ranging from 0 mg/L to 10 mg/L. At 5 mg/L and 10 mg/L ginseng and radish developed typical leaf B toxicity symptoms similar to those described above for field-grown plants. Increasing B in the nutrient solution from 0.5 mg/L to 10 mg/L decreased, in a linear fashion, the root and leaf dry mass of ginseng, but not radish. Given the many similarities of ginseng and radish to B utilization, radish might be used as a timesaving model system for the study of B, and other micronutrients, in the slow-growing perennial ginseng.

  • Cerium compounds such as Cerium hydroxide ($Ce(OH)_3$), Cerium chloride ($CeCl_3{\cdot}nH_2O$), Cerium carbonate hydrate ($Ce_2(CO_3)_3{\cdot}8H_2O$), Cerium oxide ($CeO_2$) were synthesized using recycled Ce precursor. Cerium(IV) oxide of nanoparticles were obtained by Ultra-sonication. Cerium-sodium- sulfate compound was synthesized through acid-leaching and addition of sodium sulfate from 99 wt% purity of Ce precursor as a starting material that was recycled from the waste polishing slurry. Moreover Cerium hydroxide was obtained from Cerium-sodium-sulfate compound by adding to sodium hydroxide solution. Then Cerium chloride was synthesized by adding of hydrochloric acid to Cerium hydroxide. Needle-shaped Cerium carbonate hydrate was synthesized in the continuous process and Cerium(IV) oxide with 30~40 nm size was subsequently obtained by the calcinations and dispersion.

  • In this study, the formation of mullite phase with mineralizer have been investiagated Hadong Kaolin and boehmite were used as starting materials and also of TiCl4 and MnCl4 aquous solution were used as a mineralizer. In the addition of 3.5% MnO as a mineralizer, mullite single phase could be obtained at 125$0^{\circ}C$ without any other second phases. However in the addition of TiO2 as a mineralizer, mullite single phase is obtained at above 135$0^{\circ}C$. Therefore the formation of mullite is lowered in the case of MnO as a mineralizer than of TiO2. Because it is easy to obtain mullite single phase in the case of MnO addition, all the characteristics improved. The values of bulk density, water absorption and bending strength at room temperature were 2.72g/㎤, 0.27% and 180 MPa, respectively.

  • A pendulum of industrial education begins to shift from one based on industrialized society to one on information-based age. To produce an effective result in this situation, It is necessary that an accurate estimate of a change in the circumstances of industrial high schools of Gyeonggi-do. This study researched the province's characteristics and countermeasures on industrial education adjusting the change of industrial environments by regional groups and suggested the solutions as follows. First, This study classified Gyeonggi-do into 9 regions considering the region's respective industrial structure and suggested the structure adjustment plan. Second, This study suggested '3-type curriculum management plan' based on the structure adjustment plan of industrial high schools. It includes employment-centered curriculum which provides the human resources required by industrial community, foundation-centered curriculum which revitalizes starting up a enterprises and clears up the manpower problems, college preparation-centered curriculum which meets the need of the students who are much interested in going to the next stage of education. Third, this study suggested a solution to a problem of surplus industry teacher. It includes 3 methods: Increasing practical training from 2 ours to 3 hours, assigning teachers for a task of academic-industrial collaboration and career counseling, qualifying industrial teachers for another course by minor. An amicable settlement on these matters requires a systematic administrative and financial support based on closely connected governmental-academic-industrial collaboration.

  • Emerald (3BeO{\cdot}Al$_{2}$O_{3}{\cdot}6SiO_2 : Cr^{3+}$) single crystals were grown by flux method of $Li_2O-MoO_3 - V_2O_5$ system. The composition of starting materials were 1, 3, 5 mole ratio of $MoO_3 - V_2O_5/$Li_2O$, 20 - 15% of emerald content to flux composition and 1% of $Cr_2O_3$ colordopant to emerald composition. After mixing those were melted at $1100^{\circ}C$ in Pt crucible of electric furnace. Single crystal growth was cooled down slowly rate of $3^{\circ}C$/hr from $1100^{\circ}C$ to $650^{\circ}C$, for the cooling period it was controlled and prevented the nucleation of microcrystallite from variation of each thermal fluctuation range. Specially it has been obtained plenty of large emerald single crystal when thermal fluctuation was treated for cooling period at $1050 ~ 950^{\circ}C$, in 3 mole ratio of $V_2O_5 - MoO_3/Li_2O$ flux. Emerald single crystal growing effect and $Cr_{+3}$ ion of substitutional solid solution effect for $Al_{+3}$ ion was good than mole ratio of 5. Emerald single crystals were c (0001) hexagonal rystal face of preferencial direction and m (1010) post side. Emerald was hexagonal columnar greenish transparent and 2.65 ~ 2.66 of specific gravity.

  • To avoid the intrinsic problem of aggregation associated with the traditional solution-phase refolding process, we propose a solid-phase refolding method integrated with expanded bed adsorption chromatography. The model protein used was a fusion protein of recombinant human growth hormone and a glutathione S transferase fragment. It was demonstrated that the EBA-mediated refolding technique could simultaneously remove cellular debris and directly renature the fusion protein inclusion bodies in the cell homogenate with much higher yields and less agregation. To demonstrate the applicability of the method, we successfully tested the three representative types of starting materials, i. e., rhGH monomer, washed inclusion bodies, and the E. coli homogenate. This direct and simplified refolding process could also reduce the number of renaturation steps required and allow refolding at a higher concentration, at approximately 2 mg fusion protein per ml of resin. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first approach that has combined the solid-phase refolding method with expanded bed chromatography.

  • An investigation on the synthesis of aluminum citrate, one of the aluminum organic compounds, has been performed using aluminum chloride solutions as a starting material. For the synthesis of aluminum citrate, citric acid was added to aluminum solutions with the mole ratio of citric acid to aluminum to be 2.5 and aluminum citrate synthesized was also characterized in terms of chemical analysis, X-ray diffraction, particle size measurement and SEM analysis. As a result, it was found that the ratio of ethanol/Al solution more than 4.0 was required for the synthesis of aluminum citrate from aluminum solutions. Furthermore, the pH should be controlled to be more than 7.0 in order to obtain the recovery of aluminum citrate higher than 97%. From the chemical analysis of aluminum citrate synthesized in this work, the content of $NH_4$, Al and C was found to be 17.0, 4.01 and 25.7%, respectively. Accordingly, the aluminum citrate synthesized from aluminum solutions was confirmed to be $(NH_4)_5Al(C_6H_4O_7)_2{\cdot}2H_2O$.

  • In this paper, induction machine operation efficiency and torque is improved using Machine Learning based Gene Optimization (ML-GO) Technique is introduced. Optimized Genetic Algorithm (OGA) is used to select the optimal induction machine data. In OGA, selection, crossover and mutation process is carried out to find the optimal electrical machine data for induction machine design. Initially, many number of induction machine data are given as input for OGA. Then, fitness value is calculated for all induction machine data to find whether the criterion is satisfied or not through fitness function (i.e., objective function such as starting to full load torque ratio, rotor current, power factor and maximum flux density of stator and rotor teeth). When the criterion is not satisfied, annealed selection approach in OGA is used to move the selection criteria from exploration to exploitation to attain the optimal solution (i.e., efficient machine data). After the selection process, two point crossovers is carried out to select two crossover points within a chromosomes (i.e., design variables) and then swaps two parent's chromosomes for producing two new offspring. Finally, Adaptive Levy Mutation is used in OGA to select any value in random manner and gets mutated to obtain the optimal value. This process gets iterated till finding the optimal value for induction machine design. Experimental evaluation of ML-GO technique is carried out with performance metrics such as torque, rotor current, induction machine operation efficiency and rotor power factor compared to the state-of-the-art works.

  • In a series of original papers, [1-17] efficient methods and algorithms have been presented, for the exact solution of many reliability problems represented by binary networks. A starting point of these methods was the concept of domination, firstly introduced in ,elation with reliability problems in [2]. It's application to directed networks resulted in the development of a topological formula for the classical problem of the two terminal reliability. This result was extended later to the all-terminal and the k-terminal reliability problems. All papers mentioned above use a path oriented representation for the network topology. In practical applications, however, it is common and often advantageous to work with cut sets. This article considers the Domination theory for reliability problem of a network. Some topological formula are derived and the power and the application of this formula are shown through the alternative proof of topological formula of A. Satyanarayana [2].

  • Nowadays, the redevelopment of the conventional pier in Busan port has been one of top issues on Busan port. Busan Port Authority has already launched a research project on that and the Master Plan undergoing. However, the conventional pier is still booming one for small vessels providing feeder service to and from Busan port and both Japanese ports and Chinese ones. Accordingly, there are several terminal operation companies(TOC) and union workers which make might be a major obstacle for the redevelopment. Furthermore, it has been said that alternative pier is necessary before starting redevelopment. Under such circumstance this paper tries to review the major limitations and provide some thought for the solution.
