Squatting of agricultural work can cause musculoskeletal disorders due to excessive pressure and rotational force on the knee joint In order to improve the assistive chair used in squatting agricultural work so that it can be used in a narrow groove, it is intended to improve the musculoskeletal harm of squatting work by attaching a spring on the assistive chair. Therefore, in the presenty study, 3D drawing was done using ProEngineer (3D), and a mock-up was produced and tested. Using pro-Engineer, it was judged that it was rare for plastic to be broken by a spring, so the analysis was conducted with a focus on springs. It was found that the structure that can absorb the shock according to the rigidity of the tape spring and balance the body is that the power to withstand the load of the weight is distributed as a whole when five springs are used. Electromyography was measured using ME600 (Mega Electronics, Finland) Measuring equipment attached to the waist, thighs, calves, and shins. EMG values were measured and compared with the prototype in two ways, when the worker did not wear the product and when he wore an existing product on the market. As a result of the experiment when using the prototype, the maximum EMG value for each part is considered to be helpful in preventing musculoskeletal diseases as the amount of muscle used is reduced in the waist, thighs, calves, and shins.

The effect of segmental joints is one of main importance for the segmental lining design when tunnels are excavated by a mechanized process. In this paper, segmental tunnel linings are analyzed by two numerical methods, namely the Beam-Spring Method (BSM) and the Solid-Interface Method (SIM). For this purpose, the Tehran Subway Line 6 Tunnel is considered to be the reference case. Comprehensive 2D numerical simulations are performed considering the soil's calibrated plastic hardening model (PH). Also, an advanced 3D numerical model was used to obtain the stress relaxation value. The SIM numerical model is conducted to calculate the average rotational stiffness of the longitudinal joints considering the joints bending moment distribution and joints openings. Then, based on the BSM, a sensitivity analysis was performed to investigate the influence of the ground rigidity, depth to diameter ratios, slippage between the segment and ground, segment thickness, number of segments and pattern of joints. The findings indicate that when the longitudinal joints are flexible, the soil-segment interaction effect is significant. The joint rotational stiffness effect becomes remarkable with increasing the segment thickness, segment number, and tunnel depth. The pattern of longitudinal joints, in addition to the joint stiffness ratio and number of segments, also depends on the placement of longitudinal joints of the key segment in the tunnel crown (similar to patterns B and B').

The respiration rate of Chinese quince was measured at 0, 5, 10, and $20^{\circ}C$ to determine its tolerable range of storage temperatures. Based on the measured respiration rates, plastic films covering a wide range of gas permeabilities were used for packaging and storing individual Chinese quince at 0 and $10^{\circ}C$. Chinese quince can be categorized as low respiration fruit. Higher respiratory quotients were observed at higher temperature suggesting that the tolerable temperature range for storage is $0-10^{\circ}C$. Packages containing Chinese quince wrapped in highly gas-permeable polyolefin film PD 941 attained, with progressive decreases in volume, 9.5-10.2% $O_2$ and 1.3-1.8% $CO_2$ at $0^{\circ}C$, 8.1% $O_2$ and 2.4% $CO_2$ at $10^{\circ}C$. At these levels, PD 941 could preserve the fruit at acceptable quality levels for 152 and 50 days at 0 and $10^{\circ}C$, respectively. Less gas-permeable packages built up high $CO_2$ concentrations (above 15.8%) and low $O_2$ concentrations (less than 1.8%) causing free volume expansion and eventual dark discoloration of the fruit. The storage life realized by packaging with polyolefin film PD 941 could facilitate the availability of Chinese quinces in winter and spring for medicinal or ornamental purposes in the fresh state.

본 논문에서는 선상가열에 의한 평판의 굽힘변형과 관련하여 열탄소성보의 잔류변형과 잔류음력의 분포를 예측하기 위한 간이 수치해석을 시도하였다. 3차원 평판의 거동을 2차원 보의 변형으로 단순화시키기 위하여 수정된 스트립 모델을 사용하고 여기에 유한요소법을 사용하여 시간의 변화에 따른 열탄소성보의 거동을 간편하게 계산할 수 있는 PC용 전산프로그램을 개발하였다. 본 해석에서는 온도장을 구하는 과정은 생략하였고 이미 주어진 온도분포를 사용하여 열변형이 발생하는 문제만을 다루고 있으며 온도에 따른 재료특성치의 변화도 고려하였다. 본 프로그램의 검증을 위하여 계산결과는 기발표된 실험결과나 유사한 방법의 수치해석 결과와 비교하였다.

본 논문에서는 파일형 선박충돌방호공에 선박이 충돌하였을 때 거동을 해석하였다. 충돌방호공은 슬래브, RCP말뚝 및 이를 지지하는 지반을 비선형스프링으로 모델링하였다. 선박의 선수는 탄소성거동을 하는 쉘요소로 모델링하였으며, 선체부는 충격 시 변형이 크게 발생하지 않으므로 선형재료로 고체요소를 이용하여 모델링을 하였다. 선박의 중량의 변화에 따른 거동특성을 파악하기 위해 선박의 질량을 DWT 10000 부터 DWT 25000까지 5000씩 증가시켜 해석을 수행하였다. 또한 선박과 방호공의 충돌은 정면충돌로 고려하였으며, 충돌 속도는 5knot로 가정하였다. 선박과 방호공과의 충돌 해석은 비선형 해석 프로그램인 ABAQUS/Explicit을 이용하여 수행하였으며, 이를 통하여 선박 충돌 시 방호공의 에너지 거동을 분석하였다. 해석결과 선박의 중량이 증가할수록 선수와 슬래브의 변형에 의한 소성 소산 에너지량이 증가하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

Anthers of sweet pepper $F_1$ cultivar 'Special' were cultured on Dumas De Vaulx (C medium), supplemented with $0.1mgL^{-1}$ 2, 4-D and $0.1mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ kinetin with 3% sucrose, and 0.32% phytagel. The calluses obtained were further sub-cultured on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium without growth regulators for regeneration. Regenerated plantlets were grown in plastic pots under plastic house and characterized their cytological and morphological characters in spring, 2008. Twenty percent plantlets were identified as haploid plants after chromosome and ploidy analysis. Haploid plants contained 12 chromosomes, high stomatal density with small stomatal length as compared to diploid plants. Stomatal length in haploids was 23.3% smaller than diploids. Haploid plants were characterized as small leaf and petiole size, poor vigor, thin stem and short plant height, short internodes and small flower buds, fruit size and fruit weight as compared to diploid plants and most of the haploid fruits were seedless. SP55, SP62, SP68, SP72 and SP77 are found high yielding double haploids with high total soluble content (8.6, 8.7, 9.2, 9.1 and $9.8^{\circ}Brix$, respectively) and desirable fruit shape, and recommended them to exploit as inbred lines for heterosis breeding.

This experiment was conducted to determine the effects of the pre- and post-harvest variable factors on the processed product of kimchi cabbage. Two kimchi cabbage cultivars, namely 'Chungwang' and 'Dongpung,' were grown in a field and under a plastic greenhouse condition and stored at $5^{\circ}C$ after harvesting with and without low-density polyethylene (LDPE) film packaging. Growths were determined after harvesting while salting characteristics were determined after the processing and storage. The results show that the height, weight and leaf thickness were higher in kimchi cabbages grown in the greenhouse than those grown in the field. The plastic house culture increased the kimchi cabbage growth of the head weight, head height and leaf thickness compared with that of the open field culture. However, the osmolality and firmness were higher in the outdoor cultivated kimchi cabbages. Kimchi cabbage packed in film covered sacks and stored at $5^{\circ}C$ showed lower weight loss than unpacked cabbages during storage. Salt concentration and pH were also affected by the different pre- and post-harvest factors after salting the kimchi cabbages. Salt concentrations of the kimchi cabbage were influenced by various factors such as the cultivars, cultivation methods and storage covering. Though the present findings showed a limited difference in salt concentration and pH between the cultivars of kimchi cabbages, this study suggests that there is a relationship between processed agricultural products and their pre- and post-harvest methods.

화장품용 펌프는 복합재질의 내부 부품들과 복잡한 구조로 인하여 소비자들이 재질별로 분리 배출할 수 없는 구조를 이루고 있으며, 특히 금속 스프링을 사용하고 있어 재활용률이 현저히 떨어졌다. 하지만 최근 국내·외에서 환경오염으로 인한 다양한 규제 및 소비자의 인식 변화로 친환경적인 제품의 수요도 급격히 증가하고 있으며, 이에 따라 화장품 업계에서도 재활용률을 높이기 위해 다양한 시도가 진행되고 있다. 또한 아직 국내·외 플라스틱 화장품 용기의 재활용률이 20% 내외로 낮은 상황에서 친환경 화장품 용기 세계시장 선점과 국내 포장산업 활성화를 위해서는 기술적 차별화와 동시에 선진기업 수준의 품질 성능을 갖춘 화장품용 고성능 펌프의 개발이 필요하다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 단일재질(PP)로 구성된 0.2 ml 고성능 펌프를 개발하였으며, 실험을 통해 감압 시 내용물의 누수와 용기 변형이 없으며, 누름강도 14.8~17.5N, 토출량 편차 2.3~8.8%, 초기 공타 4회로 기존 금속재 스프링을 사용한 복합소재펌프와 대등한 수준의 품질 성능을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 단일소재를 사용하였기 때문에, 향후 국내·외 친환경 화장품 용기 시장 점유율 확대와 함께 플라스틱 재활용률 향상에 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

Background: The monitoring of pathogens of fishery auction markets is important to obtain safe fishery products regarding hygiene and sanitation. In this study, aerobic, coliform, Escherichia coli, and Vibrio cholerae were monitored in the fishery products and environmental samples obtained from fishery auction markets. Methods: The fishery products (flounder, octopus, skate, rock cod, sea bass, snail, monkfish, flatfish, comb pen shell, corb shell, conger eel, hairtail, croaker, and pilchard) were placed in filter bags, and the environmental samples (samples from the water tanks at the fishery auction markets, seawater from the fishery distribution vehicles, ice from wooden or plastic boxes, and surface samples from wooden and plastic boxes used for fish storage) were collected. Aerobic bacteria, E. coli, and coliform in the samples were enumerated on aerobic count plates and E. coli/coliform count plates, respectively. For V. cholerae O1 and V. cholerae non-O1 quantification, most probable number (MPN)-PCR analysis was performed. Results: Aerobic and coliform bacteria were detected in most samples, but E. coli was not detected. Wooden boxes were contaminated with high levels of aerobic and coliform bacteria in all seasons (spring, summer, and fall). During fall, V. cholerae non-O1 were detected in snails, hairtails, croakers, flatfishes, pilchards, plastic boxes, and water samples. Conclusions: These results indicate an increased prevalence of V. cholerae contamination in fishery products in fall, including food contact samples, which can be vehicles for cross-contamination.

In this paper the results are reported of sixty-nine lateral collision tests, which were performed to investigate the collision resistance of plates. For the tests a collision testing machine of spring-roller conveyer type was designed and fabricated. Using this machine, various plates were tested with different masses and velocities and various headers of the striker. A simple analytical method has also been developed to predict the extent of damage of struck plates due to lateral collision. In the method, it is assumed that the kinetic energy of the striker can be dissipated by the formation of yield lines and membrane tensions in the impacted plate. The calculated predictions of extent of damage using the developed method have been substantiated with the test results, which shows reasonably acceptable correlations.
