Heat shock protein 70(HSP70) is induced by elevated temperature and many other types of stresses in cell. HSP70 ensures cell survival under stressful condition that would lead to irreversible cell damage and ultimately to cell death. HSP70 plays essential role in the synthesis, transport, and folding of proteins and is often refferred to as molecular chaperones. Increased levels of HSPs occur after arthritis, infection, imflammation, autoimmune disease and CNS injury such as infarction, ischemia, seizure and Alzheimer's disease. Also, HSP70 increases resistance to apoptosis. The recent studies that the expression of the HSP has been processed at various field. However, they an still relatively line studied in clinically application. This review summarizes the fundamental knowledge of HSP.

From isothermal and cyclic oxidation tests on thermomechanically treated Ti-5%Al, Ti47%Al-4%Cr, and Ti-48%Al-2%Cr-2%Nb alloys at 800, 900, 1000℃ in air, it was found that Ti-48%Al-2%Cr-2%Nb and Ti-47%Al-4%Cr had the best and the worst oxidation resistance, respectively. The oxide scales consisted primarily of TiO₂and Al₂O₃, with and without a small amount of dissolved Cr and 7b ions, depending on the alloy composition. These ions were slightly enriched inside the inner oxide layer, and strongly enriched around the scale-matrix interface. The outer TiO₂-rich layer was formed by the outward diffusion of Ti ions, while the inner (TiO₂+A1₂O₃,) mixed layer was formed by the inward transport of oxygen. The outward movement of Al ions farmed the intermediate Al₂O₃-rich Iayer, above talc prepared alloys.

API steel is used for line-pipe to transport the oil and natural gas. As the recent trends in the development of API steel are towards the use of larger diameter and thicker plate, many researches have been studied to achieve higher strength, higher toughness and lower yield ratio in API steel. However, the strength of API steel after pipe forming is changed depend on the competition of the Bauschinger effect and work hardening. So, the purpose of this study is to investigate the influence on the Bauschinger effect for API steel by addition of V and Cu which are formed the precipitations for higher strength in API steel. The results are that the addition of V considered as a ferrite stabilizer and Cu considered as a austenite stabilizer decreases and increases the Bauschinger effect for API steel respectively.

We present a new synthetic route and characterization for ultra small sized PbS quantum dots in extreme quantum confinement with 1.5 to 2.9 nm in diameter. We obtained a series of nanocrystals with first absorption wavelength ranging from 580 to 820 nm (2.1-1.5 eV). To get this result, PbS quantum dots size is finely controlled by adjusting the growth temperature in the range of $70-95^{\circ}C$. We demonstrate that photoluminescence (PL) shows a red shift with respect to the first absorption peak that increases with decreasing PbS quantum dots size and ranges from about 500 to 125 meV as the mean PbS quantum dots diameter increases from 1.5 to 2.9 nm. We further created the assembled PbS quantum dot solids and investigated the transport properties for energy applications.

In a low aspect ratio (LAR) tokamak reactor with a superconducting toroidal field (TF) coil, the radial build of TF coil and the shield play a key role in determining the size of a reactor. For self-consistent determination of the reactor components and physics parameters, a system analysis code is coupled with one-dimensional radiation transport code. Conceptual design study of a compact superconducting LAR tokamak reactor with aspect ratio less than 2.5 was conducted and the optimum radial build was identified. It is shown that the use of an improved shielding material and high temperature superconducting magnets with high critical current density opens up the possibility of a fusion power plant with compact size and small re-circulating power simultaneously at low aspect ratio, and that by using an inboard neutron reflector instead of breeding blanket, tritium self-sufficiency is possible with outboard blanket only and thus compact sized reactor is viable.

In this review, recent researches on ion transport phenomena in organic metal halide perovskite materials, which have been popular all over the world, are summarized. Although different results have been reported depending on the perovskite material composition and applied voltage, iodide seems to migrate under actual solar cell operating conditions, and occasionally methylammonium migration is observed. Perovskite is a so-called mixed conductor in which electrons and ions move simultaneously at room temperature, which greatly influences the hysteresis of the perovskite solar cell current-voltage curve and the performance degradation due to long-term operation.

We have investigated dielectric properties depending on bias voltage in organic light-emitting diodes using 8-hydroxyquinoline aluminum $(Alq_3)$ as an electron transport and emissive material. We analyzed the dielectric properties of organic light-emitting diodes using impedance of characteristics. Impedance characteristics was measured complex impedance Z and phase $\theta$ in the frequency range of 40 Hz to $10^8$ Hz. We obtained complex electrical conductivity, dielectric constant, and loss tangent $(tan\delta)$ of the device at room temperature. From these analyses, we are able to interpret a conduction mechanism and dielectric properties contributed by an interfacial and orientational polarization.

A Plankton ecosystem model was developed to investigate effects of hydrodynamic processes including advection and diffusion on size-structured phytoplankton dynamics in the mesohaline zone of the York River estuarine system, Virginia, USA. The model included 12 state variables representing the distribution of carbon and nutrients in the surface mixed layer. Groupings of autotrophs and heterotrophs were based on cell site and ecological hierarchy Forcing functions included incident radiation, temperature, wind stress, mean How and tide which includes advective transport and turbulent mixing. The ecosystem model was developed in FORTRAN using differential equations that were solved using the 4th order Runge-Kutta technique. The model showed that microphytoplankton blooms during winter-spring resulted from a combination of vertical advection and diffusion of phytoplankton cells rather than in-situ production in the lower York River estuary.

In the present study, an evaporative generation process of ammonia-water solution film on the vertical plate was analysed. For the utilization of waste heat, hot water of low temperature was used as the heat source. The continuity, momentum, energy and diffusion equations for the solution film and vapor mixture were formulated in integral forms and solved numerically. Counter-current solution-vapor flow resulted in the refrigerant vapor of the higher ammonia concentration than that of co-current flow. Eve the rectification of refrigerant vapor was observed near the inlet of solution film in counter-current flow. For the optimum operation of generator using hot water, numerical experiments, based on the heat exchange and generation efficiencies. revealed the inter-relationships among the Reynolds number of the solution film and hot water, and the length of generator. Enhancement of heat and mass transport in the solution film was found to be very effective for the improvement of generation performance, especially at high solution flow rate.

A theoretical and experimental study is performed to investigate the characteristics of ice slurry product. By diffusion-controlled evaporation model the possibility of ice slurry is theoretically anticipated. The water vapor evaporated from the surface of droplets is extracted continuously from the chamber by a vacuum pump. The droplet diameter is measured by silicon immersion method. The ice slurry is obtained by spraying droplets of ethylene glycol aqueous solution in the chamber where pressure is maintained under the triple point of water. The droplet with the diameter of 300 $\mu\textrm{m}$and the initial temperature of 2$0^{\circ}C$ was changed into ice particle within the chamber of 1.33m in height.
