In the present study, silk fibroin (SF) was dissolved in $CaCl_2/H_2O/EtOH$ solution at $85^{\circ}C$. After the dissolution, the SF solution was cooled down and stored at $4^{\circ}C$ for 28 d. The stability of the solution's viscosity and electrospinnability was observed to examine the stability of SF molecules during storage in $CaCl_2/H_2O/EtOH$ solution. The viscosities of $SF/CaCl_2/H_2O/EtOH$ solution and SF formic acid solution did not change during 28 days' storage of SF in $CaCl_2/H_2O/EtOH$ solution. The electrospinnability of the SF solution, mean diameter of the electrospun SF fiber, and crystallinity index of electrospun SF web did not change, regardless of the length of the storage period. These results imply that SF molecules do not degrade during 28 days' storage in $CaCl_2/H_2O/EtOH$ solution.

In this paper, the optimal bang-bang control problem of an air-conditioning system with slab thermal storage was formulated by gradient method. Furthermore, the numeric solution obtained by gradient method algorithm was compared with the analytic solution obtained on the basis of maximum principle. The control variable is changed uncontinuously at the start time of thermal storage operation in an analytic solution. On the other hand, it is showed as a continuous solution in a numeric solution. The numeric solution reproduces the analytic solution when a tolerance for convergence is applied severely. It is conceivable that gradient method is effective in the analysis of the optimal bang-bang control of the large-scale system like an air-conditioning system with slab thermal storage.

Onion (Allium cepa L.) is one of the major vegetable crops in Korea that are damaged and lost by pathogenic fungal infection during storage due to a lack of proper storage conditions. The aim of this study was to determine an appropriate control measure using thymol to increase the shelf life of onions. To control fungal infections that occur during low-temperature storage, it is necessary to identify the predominant fungal pathogens that appear in low-temperature storage houses. Botrytis aclada was found to be the most predominant fungal pathogen during low-temperature storage. The antifungal activity of the plant essential oil thymol was tested and compared to that of the existing sulfur treatments. B. aclada growth was significantly inhibited up to 16 weeks with spray treatments using a thymol solution. To identify an appropriate method for treating onions in a low-temperature storage house, thymol was delivered by two fumigation treatment methods, either by heating it in the granule form or as a solution at low-temperature storage conditions (in vivo). We confirmed that the disease severity was reduced up to 96% by fumigating thymol solution compared to the untreated control. The efficacy of the fumigation of thymol solution was validated by testing onions in a low-temperature storage house in Muan, Jeollanam-do. Based on these results, the present study suggests that fumigation of the thymol solution as a natural preservative and fungicide can be used as an eco-friendly substitute for existing methods to control postharvest disease in long-term storage crops on a commercial scale.

This study was carried out to determine the optimum temperature of the jicama pickle solution by evaluating physicochemical and sensory characteristics at various temperatures. The soaking solution of the jicama pickle was prepared at different temperatures (95, 75, 50, and 25℃). During storage, the titratable acidity, Brix, and the salinity of the jicama pickles increased, and these values increased with increasing temperature of the soaking solution. The higher the temperature of the soaking solution, the lower the L and b values. In all samples, the hardness increased rapidly until the 5th day of storage, and then gradually decreased. During storage, the jicama pickles showed a high tendency to harden at soaking solution temperatures of 75 and 95℃. Sensory evaluation indicated that the taste, flavor, crispness, and overall preference of the jicama pickle were higher at a soaking solution temperature of 75℃ and above. The higher the temperature of the soaking solution, the higher the acceptability. Based on these results, we conclude that soaking solution temperature of 75°¦95℃ in the manufacture of jicama pickles had a positive effect on the reduction in tissue softening and the sensory properties of the jicama pickle.

Dynamic behavior of flexible rectangular liquid storage structures is analysed by the developed method. The rectangular liquid storage structures are assumed to be fixed to the ground and a moving coordinate system is used. The irrotational motion of invicid and incompressible ideal fluid is represented by two analytic solutions. One is the solution of the fluid motion in the rigid rectangular liquid storage structure due to ground motions and the other is the solution of the fluid motion by the motion of the wall in the flexible rectangular liquid storage structure. The motion of structure is modeled by finite elements. The fluid-structure interaction effect is reflected into the coupled equation of motion as added fluid mass matrix. The free surface sloshing motion and hydrodynamic pressure acting on the wall in the flexible rectangular liquid storage structure due to the horizontal ground motion are obtained by the developed method and verified.

In order to establish a theoretical basis for the analyses of transient behaviors in stratified thermal storage tanks, analytical approaches to an improved one-dimensional model are made. In the present model the storage tank is treated as a finite region with an adiabatic tank exit, whereas it has been considered as a simple semi-infinite region previously. Application of the Laplace transformation and the Inversion theorem to the governing equations makes it possible to obtain an exact infinite-series solution, which is convergent only at sufficiently large time. Accordingly a complementary solution which is available for short times, i.e., the time range of this study is sought by an approximate method. The approximate solution which is rigorously validated through the examination of neglected terms in the solution procedure agrees quite well with the exact one. Moreover, it is simpler to use and more convenient to interpret the physical meaning of the solution. Comparison of the present solution with the previous ones shows relatively large difference near the tank bottom, which results from the more realistic boundary condition adopted in the present model. Some representative results by the approximate solution including effects of the Peclet number on temperature distrbutions are illustrated to show the utility of this study. In consequence, it is expected that the present results based on the improved model replace the foregoing ones as a new theoretical reference for studies of thermal stratification fields.

A solution procedure to minimize total carousel related costs has been developed under the carousel throughput rate and total storage capacity requirements. The carousel related costs include carousel facility costs which are proportional to the number of carousels and carousel operating costs which are directly related to the moving distances of carousels. The number of carousels is dependent upon the size of a carousel and the moving distances are determined by the size of a carousel, storage item assignment to each carousel, and the item positions in a carousel. When the storage/retrieval requirements for each storage item is equal, an optimal algorithm has been developed. When the storage/retrieval requirements is unequal, a heuristic solution procedure has been developed because of the complexity of the problem.

In this paper, we address a layout design problem, PTN[2], for determining an appropriate 2-class-based dedicated storage layout in a class of unit load storage systems. Our strong conjecture is that PTNI2] is NP-hard. Restricting PTN[2], we provide three solvable cases of PTN[2] in which an optimal solution to the solvable cases is one of the partitions based on the PAI(product activity index)-nonincreasing ordering. However, we show with a counterexample that a solution based on the PAI-non increasing ordering does not always give an optimal solution to PTN[2]. Utilizing the derived properties, we construct an effective heuristic algorithm for solving PTN[2] based on a PAI-non increasing ordering with performance ratio bound. Our algorithm with O($n^2$) is effective in the sense that it guarantees a better class-based storage layout than a randomized storage layout in terms of the expected single command travel time.

저온가스를 지하공동에 저장하는 것은 안전과 운영 측면에서 많은 장점이 있다. 그러나 저장된 극저온가스는 주변암반의 온도변화를 야기하여 공동의 안정성에 영향을 줄 수 있다. 따라서 성공적인 저장공동의 건설을 위해서는 건설 초기에 공동 주위암반의 온도분포를 정확히 예측하는 것이 필수적이다. 본 연구의 목적은 저장공동 주변의 온도분포를 예측할 수 있는 이론해의 개발과 평가이다. 이를 위해, 공동의 형상을 단순화하고 비정상 열전도 이론을 적용하여 이론해를 도출하였다. 이론해의 적용성을 평가하기 위해서 이론해와 유한 차분 해석프로그램인 FLAC을 이용한 수치해석을 이용해 저장공동 주변의 2차원$.$3차원 온도분포를 추정하여 그 결과를 비교하였다. 또한, 공동의 크기에 대한 영향도 조사되었다.
