This study was conducted to derive merchantable volume ratio for 5 major species such as Pinus Densiflora (Central Region). The data used for this study was from at least more than 1,300 trees of research data throughout the country. the study applied two estimation equations, which were the estimation equation for wood volume ratio representing total wood volume to total tree stem volume and the estimation equation for merchantability representing ratio of merchantable volume to total wood volume. The merchantable volume ratio was derived by multiplying those two estimation equations. In order to gain wood volume ratio(W) from DBH, $W=\frac{a_1}{1+a_2/D}+\frac{b_1}{1+b_2/D}$ model was used. Fitness index of it was more than 99% by species, and other test statistics also indicated the suitability of this equation enough. Merchantability (M) for wood volume applied $M=e^{a_1\(\frac{d}{D}\)^{a_2}}-(b_0+b_1D+b_2D^2+b_3D^3)$ model and fitness index was more than 96% by species. Merchantable volume ratio was assessed using those two estimation equations by each 5 species, and constructed a merchantable volume ratio table. In result, merchuntable volume ratio was little difference between stand types, but there was slightly different with the existing standard such as conifers of 85% and non-conifers of 70%.

This study was conducted to develop a savory ingredient using rice material. We made hydrolysates with ratios of rice bran and rice protein of 4:0, 3:1, 2:2, and 1:3 (w/w) using commercial enzymes, and then investigated their quality properties. At a ratio of 3:1, nitrogen degradation ratio (NDR), savory taste, and overall acceptability were the highest compared to other ratios. Rice bran and rice protein with a ratio of 3:1 were hydrolyzed for 13 days, and characteristics of the hydrolysate were investigated after 3, 5, 7, 10, and 13 days. Total nitrogen, amino nitrogen, and NDR of the hydrolysate after 10 days were higher than those of other hydrolysates. SDS-PAGE showed that the molecular weight of the hydrolysate peptide became smaller as hydrolysis time increased. Glutamic acid content was highest among all amino acids in the hydrolysate for 13 days. Amino acids related to bitter taste decreased from 5 to 13 days, whereas amino acids related to sweet taste substantially increased over time. Sensory evaluation showed that the hydrolysate after 10 days was best. These results suggest that rice bran and rice protein at a mixing ratio of 3:1 and hydrolysis for 10 days were optimal hydrolysis condition for development of natural savory ingredients.

The usefulness of Gel Bolus phantom was investigated by comparing the temperature distribution characteristic of the agar phantom produced to investigate the dose distribution characteristic of radiofrequency hyperthermia device with that of the Gel Bolus phantom under conditions similar to those of an agar phantom that can continuously carry out temperature measurement. The temperatures of the agar phantom and the Gel Bolus phantom were raised to $36.5{\pm}3^{\circ}C$ and a temperature sensing was inserted at depths of 5, 10, and 15 cm from the phantom central axis. The temperature increase rate and the coefficient of determination were analyzed while applying output powers of 100 W and 150 W, respectively, at intervals of 1 min for 60 min under conditions where the indoor temperature was in the range $24.5{\sim}27.5^{\circ}C$, humidity was 35~40%, internal cooling temperature of the electrode was $20^{\circ}C$, size of the upper electrode was 250 mm, and the size of the lower electrode was 250 mm. The coefficients of determination of 150 W output power at the depth point of 5 cm from the central axis of the phantom were analyzed to be 0.9946 and 0.9926 in the agar and Gel Bolus phantoms, respectively; moreover, the temperature change equation of the agar and Gel Bolus phantoms with time can be expressed as follows in the state the phantom temperature is raised to $36^{\circ}C:Y(G)$ is equation of Gel Bolus phantoms (in 5 cm depth) applying output power of 150 W. Y(G)=0.157X+36. It can be seen that if the temperature is measured in this case, the Gel Bolus phantom value can be converted to the measured value of the agar phantom. As a result of comparing the temperature distribution characteristics of the agar phantom of a human-body-equivalent material with those of the Gel Bolus phantom that can be continuously used, the usefulness of Gel Bolus phantom was exhibited.

Until now, the evaluation method of spalling depth using Martin et al. (1999)'s linear regression relations has long been known applicable. However, it is not likely that the proposed equation is applicable to the openings other than circular type and mostly overpredict the spalling depth in comparison with actual spalling cases. Moreover, the evaluation method to estimate the spalling width has not been presented yet; it is essential to evaluate the spalling width in addition to the spalling depth, because the shape of the spalled region influences the choice of suitable rock reinforcement. In this study, linear regression equations, in which normalized spalling depth ($d_f/W_D$) and normalized spalling width ($w_f/W_D$) are functions of three spalling evaluation indices, ${\sigma}_1/{\sigma}_c,\;D_{is}(={\sigma}_{max}/{\sigma}_c)$ and ${\sigma}_{dev}/{\sigma}_{cm}$, are established based on in-situ spalling observations and CWFS simulation results. Confidence intervals of 95% using the statistical inference theory are used in verifying the reliability of linear regression equations. Spalling depth ($d_f$) and spalling width ($w_f$) predicted from the proposed linear regression relations, which take three spalling evaluation indices into account, showed reasonable match with in-situ observations by adopting weighting factors considering the degree of variance of linear regression relations.

This paper presents a 5.8 GHz PLL using high-speed ring oscillator for WLAN. The proposed ring oscillator has been designed using the negative skewed delay scheme and for differential mode operation. Therefore, the oscillator is insensitive to power-supply-injected noise, and it has the merit of low 1/f noise because tail current sources are not used. The output frequency ranges from 5.13 to 7.04 GHz with the control voltage varing from 0 to 1.8 V. The proposed PLL circuits have been designed, simulated, and proved using 0.18 um 1.8 V TSMC CMOS library. At the operation frequency of 5.8 GHz, the locking time is 2.5 us and the simulated power consumption is 59.9 mW.

In this paper, Binary to Quaternary Converter(BQC), Quaternary to Binary Converter(QBC) and Quaternary inverter circuit, which is the basic logic gate, have been proposed based on voltage mode. The BQC converts the two bit input binary signals to one digit quaternary output signal. The QBC converts the one digit quaternary input signal to two bit binary output signals. And two circuits consist of Down-literal circuit(DLC) and combinational logic block(CLC). In the implementation of quaternary inverter circuit, DLC is used for reference voltage generation and control signal, only switch part is implemented with conventional MOS transistors. The proposed circuits are simulated in 0.35 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ N-well doubly-poly four-metal CMOS technology with a single +3V supply voltage. Simulation results of these circuit show 250MHz sampling rate, 0.6mW power consumption and maintain output voltage level in 0.1V.

Steers (n = 335) of known genetic background from four fundamentally different growth types were subjected to two production systems to study differences in cooking loss (CL), tenderness, and chemical composition. Growth types were animals with genetic potential for large mature weight-late maturing (LL), intermediate mature weight-late maturing (IL), intermediate mature weight -early maturing (IE), and small mature weight-early maturing (SE). Each year, in a nine-year study, calves of each growth type were weaned and five steers of each growth type were developed on pasture or feedlot and harvested at approximately 20 and 14 mo of age, respectively. Data collected were CL and Warner-Bratzler shear force (WBS) for the Longissimus dorsi (LM), Psoas major (PS), and Quadriceps femoris (QF) muscles. Chemical composition was also determined from the right fore- and hindquarter. Data were analyzed using least squares analysis of variance for unequal subclass numbers. The beef growth $type{\times}production$ system interaction was significant for CL and WBS of the LM and ash in the lean trim of the forequarter. Growth types of LL and IL had greater (p<0.05) mean percentage CL in the PS and QF muscles than did IE and SE steers. Growth type LL had the highest (p<0.05) mean for both moisture and protein in the fore- and hindquarters; while SE had the lowest numerical mean value for moisture and protein in the fore- and hindquarters. Shear force of the PS did not differ (p>0.05) among steers of the four growth types. Increasing challenges to the cattle feeding industry may dictate that pasture development play a larger role in future production regimes. Producers should strive to match genetic growth type with available resources in order to remain viable and continue producing a quality product.

In order to develop functional hamburger steak patties, various concentrations of lotus root (Nelumbo nucifera) were incorporated into them. The quality characteristics of the hamburger patties prepared after the addition of 5, 10, 15, 20 or 25% (w/w) lotus root were investigated. The moisture contents of the groups with lotus root were significantly higher than that of the control group. The crude fat and crude protein contents of the control group were higher than those of the other groups. No significant difference in the crude ash content was observed among the groups. The cooking loss rate, rate of reduction in diameter, and reduction in thickness of the groups with lotus root were significantly lower than those of the control group. Accroding to the results, lotus root inhibit cooking loss and help to keep moisture after cooking process. No significant difference in the L value was observed among the groups. The a and b values of the groups with lotus root were significantly decreased compared to those of the control group. No significant difference in hardness was observed among the groups. it suggest lotus root didn't affect the texture of hamburger patties. In the quantitative descriptive analysis, no significant difference in the color and fresh odor was observed among the groups. The groups with lotus root were softer than the control group. The groups with 10 to 25 % of lotus root showed higher juiciness and a sweeter taste than the control group. The preference of appearance, texture, flavor and overall acceptability of the groups with 10 to 25% lotus root were higher than those of the other groups, including the control group. In conclusion, lotus root can increase the acceptability of hamburger patties and 10-25% would appear to be the proper amount of it to use.
