Using the new type auxiliary(K-1), dyeing experiment was done at the various dyeing conditions and the effects of auxiliary on the dyeing properties of acid milling dye for the silk fiber were dicussed. The results obtained were as follows; 1. The exhaust rate of acid milling dye was increased according to the auxiliary concentration at dyebath pH 7, But the increasing tendency of exhaust rate was decreased above auxiliary concentration 3% o. w. f.. 2. It was the same tendency of exhaust rate at dyebath pH 5, but the diffusion was more powerful at dyebath pH 7 than pH 5. 3. The decreasing ratio of exhaust rate according to dye concentration increasing was lower at auxiliary addition than auxiliary non-addition. 4. The exhaust rate curve according to increasing dyeing temperature showed the inflection point at auxiliary non-addition, but it was not observed in auxiliary addition. Consequently, it seems to be avoid that the occurrence of uneven dyeing at auxiliary addition.

Artificial ground freezing (AGF) is a commonly used geotechnical support technique that can be applied in any soil type and has low environmental impact. Experimental and numerical investigations have been conducted to optimize AGF for application in diverse scenarios. Precise simulation of groundwater flow is crucial to improving the reliability these investigations' results. Previous experimental research has mostly considered horizontal seepage flow, which does not allow accurate calculation of the groundwater flow velocity due to spatial variation of the piezometric head. This study adopted vertical seepage flow-which can maintain a constant cross-sectional area-to eliminate the limitations of using horizontal seepage flow. The closure time is a measure of the time taken for an impermeable layer to begin to form, this being the time for a frozen soil-ice wall to start forming adjacent to the freeze pipes; this is of great importance to applied AGF. This study reports verification of the reliability of our experimental apparatus and measurement system using only water, because temperature data could be measured while freezing was observed visually. Subsequent experimental AFG tests with saturated sandy soil were also performed. From the experimental results, a method of estimating closure time is proposed using the inflection point in the thermal conductivity difference between pore water and pore ice. It is expected that this estimation method will be highly applicable in the field. A further parametric study assessed factors influencing the closure time using a two-dimensional coupled thermo-hydraulic numerical analysis model that can simulate the AGF of saturated sandy soil considering groundwater flow. It shows that the closure time is affected by factors such as hydraulic gradient, unfrozen permeability, particle thermal conductivity, and freezing temperature. Among these factors, changes in the unfrozen permeability and particle thermal conductivity have less effect on the formation of frozen soil-ice walls when the freezing temperature is sufficiently low.

Korean traditional buildings, Hanok, are mostly constructed with dimension lumbers and roundwoods. They are hardly kiln-dried without severe defects, thus usually air-dried from some months to an year. Dimension lumbers and roundwoods were heat-treated above $170^{\circ}C$ and drying defects were examined. Temperature rising curves of all dimension timbers used for this study show one or two deflection points. The time when the temperature at 37.5mm depth reached at $100^{\circ}C$ for spruce dimension heat-treated at $170^{\circ}C$ was twice longer than that heat-treated at $190^{\circ}C$. There were many internal checks in roundwoods of $148mm{\Phi}$, while surface checks were apparently closed at the end of heat treatment. The drying time of $300{\times}300mm$ dimensions with 65mm hole was shorter than that without hole by half.

The purpose of this study is to improve recycling rate of the coal reject ash by investigating bloating mechanism for artificial lightweight aggregate of reject ash. In this study, we use reject ash (R/A) and dredged soil (D/S) as raw materials. The artificial lightweight aggregates were formed by plastic forming (${\phi}$ = 10 mm) and sintered by temperature raising method at different temperatures (between 1200 and $1275^{\circ}C$). The physical properties of the aggregates such as bulk specific gravity, adsorption and microstructure of surface and cross-section are investigated with the sintering temperature and rate of R/A-D/S contents. As the result of the bulk specific gravity graphs, we can found out the inflection point at content of R/A 80 wt.%. From the microstructure images, we considered the artificial lightweight aggregates content of R/A over 80 wt.% are distributed numerous uniform micro-pores by vitrification without Black Core and the artificial lightweight aggregates of R/A below 80wt.% are distributed macro-pores with Black Core.

Correlations between mitochondrial respiration, glycolysis activity and overall growth activity of rice (Oryza sativa: cv. Dasan) seedlings during low temperature exposure were studied in order to provide insights into the underlying mechanism for the primary phase of chilling injury in plants. Among cellular membranes involved in energy metabolism, only the mitochondrial inner membrane showed not only physical phase transition at ca. $13^{\circ}C$, as monitored by ESR spin label, but also functional phase transition at the same temperature, as assessed by cytochrome c oxidase activity. The main regulatory enzyme of glycolysis, phosphofructokinase, in situ did not suffer phase transition of its activity at least in the $4{\sim}27^{\circ}C$ range. Low temperature caused a significant accumulation of glucose 6-phosphate (G6P) and fructose 6-phosphate (F6P), which disappeared almost completely on rewarming of the seedlings. Temperature profiles of the steady state levels of G6P and F6P revealed the inflection point appearing at around phase transition temperature of the mitochondrial membrane. The results conform to our previous proposition on the mechanism for the early stage events of chilling injury that the accumulation of glycolytic metabolites in cells due to metabolic imbalance at low temperature gives rise to an excess supply of electrons during rewarming period, which, in turn, results in overproduction of active oxygen in mitochondria.

Electrical conductivities of $ZrO_2-Sm_2O_3$ systems containing 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 mol% of $ZrO_2$ have been measured as a function of temperature and of oxygen partial pressure at temperature from 500 to 1000${\circ}C$ and oxygen partial pressures from 1 ${\times}10^{-5}to 1{\times}10^{-1}$ atm. Plots of log conductivity vs. 1/T are found to be linear with an inflection point at around 650$^{\circ}C$ and the temperature dependence of conductivity shows two different defect structures. The conductivities are increased with increasing pressure, slowing a p-type character. The electrical conductivity dependences on $Po_2$ are found to be ${\sigma}{\propto}Po_2^{1/5.3}$ at 650∼1000$^{\circ}C$ and ${\sigma}{\propto}Po_2^{1/6}$ at 500∼650$^{\circ}C$, respectively, The defect structures are Oi" at 650-1000$^{\circ}C$ and $Vs_m$"' at 500-650$^{\circ}C$. The electron hole is main carrier type, however ionic contribution is found at low temperature portion. Ionic contributions increased with the increasing amount of $ZrO_2$ dopant. In 60mol% $ZrO_2-Sm_2O_3$ system, the conductivity is increased with decreasing oxygen pressure.

In Korea, fireproof performance is evaluated through a series of fire-resistance tests for important structures, and the performance standard follows the guidelines suggested by ITA. The fireproof duct slab manufactured by combining the slab and the fireproof material with a precast method is effective in that it can eliminate the construction time of the fireproof material. In this study, a series of fire resistance tests was performed on the fire test specimens under the RWS fire scenario in order to secure the fire resistance performance of the precast fireproof duct slab. As a result of the test, it was found that the fireproof performance was secured when the thickness of the fireproof material was 30 mm or more. In both fireproof materials and concrete, the rate of temperature change initially increased, then decreased, and then increased again, and the temperature at the inflection point was measured as 110℃ for all fireproof materials and concrete. It is judged that this occurs when the C-S-H (CaO-SiO₂-H₂O) generated by the hydration reaction in both the fireproof material and concrete is dehydrated.

The thermal and optical properties of glucose penta(cholesteryloxycarbonyl)alkanoates (CAGLn, n = 2~8, 10, the number of methylene units in the spacer) were investigated. All the CAGLn formed monotropic cholesteric phases with left-handed helical structures. CAGLn with n = 2 or 10, in contrast with CAGLn with $3{\leq}n{\leq}8$, did not display reflection colors over the full cholesteric range, suggesting that the helical twisting power of the cholesteryl group highly depends on the length of the spacer joining the cholesteryl group to the glucose chain. The isotropic-cholesteric transition point ($T_{ic}$) decreased with increasing n and showed no odd-even effect. The plot of transition entropy at $T_{ic}$ against n had a sharp negative inflection at n = 7. The optical pitches (${{\lambda}_m}^{\prime}$ s) of CAGLn with $3{\leq}n{\leq}8$ decreased with increasing temperature. However, the temperature dependence of the ${\lambda}_m$ of the derivatives exhibited pronounced dependence on n. The transitional properties and the temperature dependence of the ${\lambda}_m$ observed for CAGLn were discussed in terms of the differences in arrangement of the cholesteryl groups and the conformation of the molecules.

Detonation reaction in L.P.G./$O_2$ mixture gas has been investigated over the L.P.G. concentration range of 3∼45 volume%. The variation of detonation velocity with mixture ratio is very interesting as it shows and inflection point near at the stoichiometric ratio. This might be ascribed to the fact that the detonation reactions at fuel-rich condition and fuel-lean condition proceed via different mechanisms. The maximum detonation velocity of 2.65km/sec occurs not at stoichiometric ratio(${\phi}$=1) but at fuel-rich condition (${\phi}$=1.57). Assuming that a stable detonation wave must propagates with the constant velocity, The upper and lower limit of detonation were determined and found to be 40.0 and 3.40 L.P.G. volume% respectively. The shock-heating technique was also utilized for the measurement of self-ignition temperature onsetting a stable detonation wave at varous mixture ratios. The self-ignition temperature at stoichiometric ratio is $742{\pm}3{\circ}K$ and the self-ignition temperature increases as the mixture ratio deviates from the stoichiometric condition.
