Recently, because of the weather forecasts through the low-resolution data has been limited, the demand of the high-resolution data is sharply increasing. Therefore, in this study, we restore the ultra-high resolution synthetic precipitation and temperature data for 2000-2014 due to small-scale topographic effect using the QPM (Quantitative Precipitation Model)/QTM (Quantitative Temperature Model). First, we reproduce the detailed precipitation and temperature data with 1km resolution using the distribution of Automatic Weather System (AWS) data and Automatic Synoptic Observation System (ASOS) data, which is about 10km resolution with irregular grid over South Korea. Also, we recover the precipitation and temperature data with 1km resolution using the MERRA reanalysis data over North Korea, because there are insufficient observation data. The precipitation and temperature from restored current climate reflect more detailed topographic effect than irregular AWS/ASOS data and MERRA reanalysis data over the Korean peninsula. Based on this analysis, more detailed prospect of regional climate is investigated.

Automotive materials and plant modules need to be prepared for freezing parts to operate in extreme areas such as Eastern Europe, Russia, and Canada. However, the only thing that has been done for ultra-qualifying materials for extremely low operating materials is that only the effects at low temperatures are conducted at room temperature, and the effects at low temperatures are only identified at low speeds. Therefore, this study examined the low-temperature characteristics of materials by conducting comparative tests on the mechanical properties of the room at the temperature and temperature of TP304 and TP316 materials, which are the most common materials.

The potentiometric measurement result for a high resistance up to $100P{\Omega}$ using a low resistance, a low voltage source and a commercial digital multimeter(DMM) is presented. With the method, a resistance can be easily, fast and economically measured. Using the method, resistance ranges over the $10G{\Omega}$ range which is difficult to measure using a commercial DMM and resistance ranges between $100T{\Omega}$ and $100P{\Omega}$ which cannot measure using an insulation tester were measured within accuracy of a few percent. It is expected that it can be useful to determine the temperature and voltage effect of a high resistance and an insulation material because it uses a reference resistance with a low resistance, very low temperature and voltage effect. Besides, it is expected that it can be useful to calibrate a dc high voltage divider with a large resistance ratio and a very low resistance because arbitrary resistance ratio measurements are possible with it.

Ultra-high temperature ceramics (UHTC) such as $ZrB_2$, ZrC, $HfB_2$, HfC and TaC has been recently actively investigated for the application as components such as nose-cone, rocket nozzle and leading edge of hypersonic systems. However, the application has been limited by various reasons. The brittleness of the materials and consequent low thermal shock resistance is one of the reasons. The property can be improved through the fabrication of ceramic matrix composites. In this paper, the concept of UHTC and the fabrication process and testing of UHTC-based ceramic matrix composites (UHTC-CMC) were briefly reviewed. Also, international activities regarding the fabrication of UHTC-CMC were summarized and a UHTC-CMC project, which was performed in Korea, was introduced.

This paper describes an experiment of detecting a temperature and components of arc plasma of electrical circuit breaker with a spectroscopic system. The system includes an optical fiber, a monochromator which has three gratings from low to high resolution and ICCD of which time resolution is 50 ns. This system enables measuring a temperature and components of arc plasma of a circuit breaker which is generated and extinguished in a few ms. We use a Planck's law and Boltzmann Plot method for calculating a temperature of arc plasma. A Xenon lamp is used for calibrating the system and this is very important for calculating a temperature of arc plasma. In this study, Arc plasma of Ag and Cu contact was investigated and these represent the contact of low voltage and extra-ultra high voltage circuit breaker, respectively. 8 $kA_{rms}$ test current was applied with a capacitor bank.

Tungsten and tungsten heavy alloys have widespread application as radiation shielding devices and heavy duty electrical contacts. High density and good room temperature mechanical properties have generated interest in evaluating tungsten and tungsten alloys as kinetic energy penetrators against armor. Nowdays ultra fine-grained tungsten powders are in great interest because higly dense structures can be obtained at low temperature, pressure and lower sintering time. Several physical md chemical methods are available for the synthesis of nanometric metal Powders: ball milling, laser abalation, vapor condensation, chemical precipitation, metallic wire explosion i.e. However production rates of the above mentioned methods are low and further efforts are needed to find out large-scale synthesis methods. From this point of view solid state combustion method ( known as SHS) represents undoubted interest.

The developent of ceramic combustor is being increased beca- use of the excellent physical properties of ceramic material, that is, high-resistant strength, high emissivity power and high corrosin-resistance. Ceramic combustor has been interested in the application of ultra-lean combustion for low NO$_{x}$ emission and gaseuos waste incineration with good combustion. This experimental study was conducted to investigate the combustion and emission characteristics of wall recess type ceramic combustor with equivalence ratio, mixture flow velocity and wall recess depth as parameters. The results in this study are as follows: 1. Wall recess played a important role to extend flame stability region. 2. The peak temperature of gas was peoportional to equivalence ratio, mixture flow velocity and wall recess depth. 3. The static pressure of mixing chamber and inlet temperature depended on the position of flame zone. 4. NO reduction was achieved by lean mixture without lower combustibility.y.

For the measurement of the change of respiration rate caused by the gas content of storage atmosphere which furnishes important data for the interpretation of ULO storage, GC was used. It has been shown that the respiration rate and respiratory heat generation rate of Fuji apple is more than doubled in normal low temperature storage when compared with ULO storage, and that in ULO storage the respiration rate and respiratory heat generation rate directly proportional to the concentration of O2 in storage atmosphere as well as inversely proportional to that of CO2. It was possible to establish a functional formula for the respiratory heat generation rate of Fuji apple in all the storage conditions in terms of u=-0.7638+0.0003 O2-0.0007 log(CO2)+0.1369 log(Tb) concerning temperature and the concentration of O2 and CO2

The sliding wear behavior of ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) was examined on a novel low temperature degradation-free zirconia/alumina composite material and conventional alumina and zirconia ceramics used for femoral head in total hip joint replacement. The wear of UHMWPE pins against these ceramic disks was evaluated by performing linear reciprocal sliding and repeat pass rotational sliding tests for one million cycles in bovine serum. The weight loss of polyethylene against the novel low temperature degradation-free zirconia/alumina composite disks was much less than those against conventional ceramics for all tests. The mean weight loss of the polyethylene pins was more io the linear reciprocal sliding test than in the repeal pass rotational sliding lest for all kinds of disk materials. Neither the coherent transfer film nor the surface damage was observed on the surface of the novel zirconia/alumina composite disks during the test. The observed r,'stilts indicated that the wear of the polyethylene was closely related to contacting materials and kinematic motions. In conclusion, the novel zirconia/alumina composite leads the least wear of polyethylene among the tested ceramics and demonstrates the potential as lhe alternative materials for femoral head in total hip joint replacement.
