Reduction 2,4,6-Trinitrotoluene by zero valent iron was studied in a batch reactor under anoxic conditions. Results showed that the removal of TNT was a pseudo-first order and the rate was dependent on the available metal surface area. Final product, presumably triaminotoluene, accumulated in the solution as well as on the metal surface. However, little amounts of aminodinitrotoluenes were detected. Therefore, it is postulated that the reduction of nitro group occurs simultaneously in all three position.

We consider the Cauchy problem for Laplacian. Using the single layer representation, we obtain an equivalent system of boundary integral equations. We show the singular values of the ill-posed Cauchy operator decay exponentially, which means that a small error is exponentially amplified in the solution of the Cauchy problem. We show the decaying rate is dependent on the geometry of he domain, which provides the information on the choice of numerically meaningful modes. We suggest a pseudo-inverse regularization method based on singular value decomposition and present various numerical simulations.

We consider a model of population dynamics whose mortality function is unbounded. We approximate the solution of the model using a discontinuous Galerkin finite element for the age variable and a backward Euler for the time variable. We present several numerical examples. It is experimentally shown that the scheme converges at the rate of $h^{3/2}$ in the case of piecewise linear polynomial space.

The speech recognition systems using VQ have usually the problem decreasing recognition rate, MSVQ assigning the dissimilar vectors to a segment. In this paper, applying One-stage DMS/DP algorithm to the recognition experiments, we can solve these problems to what degree. Recognition experiment is peformed for Korean DDD area names with DMS model of 20 sections and word unit template. We carried out the experiment in speaker dependent and speaker independent, and get a recognition rates of 97.7% and 81.7% respectively.

The photoreaction of maleimide, one of the best model compounds of DNA molecules for psoralen-DNA photoreactions, is studied in order to investigate the photoreactivity and the mechanism of the maleimide-psoralen photoreaction. The (2+2) photocyclodimer of maleimide was obtained in solution state by direct or sensitized irradiation. The rate constant of dimerization is determined by quenching studies and found to be of the order of $10^9 M^{-1}sec^{-1}$. The direct dimerization of maleimide is found to undergo through the triplet excited state. The quantum yields of dimerization are dependent on the maleimide concentration.

The dynamic properties near (and at) a stable steady state are discussed, when a chemical system relaxes from the unstable steady state. The time-dependent correlation length for the fluctuating variable near a stable steady state is explicitly obtained by introducing the probability average for the variable satisfying the rate equation. The study is carried out about the effect of nonlinearity on the correlation length near (and at) a stable steady state.

Fluorescence from the electronically excited thiophosgene (Cl2CS) in its first excited singlet state (S1) is efficiently quenched by collision. Rates of the collision-induced electronic relaxation were obtained for various vibrational levels in the S1 state by measuring the fluorescence lifetimes. We found that the relaxation process is strongly energy-dependent; the rate consistently increases by a factor of ~40 with the increase of vibrational energy from 0 to 1450 cm-1. Collision-induced intersystem crossing from the S1 to the first triplet state (T1) is attributed to the major process responsible for the electronic relaxation.

Inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase(IMPDH) catalyzes the $NAD^+$-dependent oxidation of IMP to XMP, the rate limiting step in the de novo biosynthesis of guanine nucleotide. Its critical role at the metabolic branch point in purine nucleotide biosynthesis makes it a useful target in the development of drugs for antiviral and anticancer chemotherapy and in immunosupressant area. Several compound with antiviral activity have been found to be inhibitors of IMPDH. For example, ribavirin, a competitive inhibitor of IMPDH, has broad spectrum antiviral activities against DNA and RNA viruses. (omitted)

Inosine 5'-monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH) is a critical enzyme in the regulation of cell proliferation and differentiation. This enzyme catalyzes the $NAD^+$-dependent oxidation of IMP to XMP, the rate limiting step in de novo biosynthesis of guanine nucleotides. Therefore, the biochemical effect of IMPDH inhibition in sensitive cell types is decrease in intracellular guanine nucleotide levels, and the decrease in cellular GTP and deoxy GTP pool levels blocks DNA and RNA synthesis in rapidly proliferating tumor cells.

It has already been known that quenching effect is influenced greatly by stirring and changing coolant's temperature on quenching. But according to the past investigations its effect has not been taken into consideration quantitatively in the cooling process. The purpose of this study is that the influence of flow rate and temperature on the quenching effect of cooling water as quenching medium is quantitatively examined by using the open channel. The stream of water in this study is turbulent flow. The temperature of the specimen made of pure copper is measured by CA thermocouple in the vicinity of the surface and recorded by an automatic recorder during the quenching process in city water. The results obtained are as follows; 1. The quenching effect of cooling water generally increases with Reynolds Number(characteristic length; specimen diameter)as shown in the experimental formula; but at the realm of Reynolds Number from 1.2 * 10$^{4}$ to 9.2 * 10$^{4}$, the increasing rate of quenching effect shows little increase. 2. The increasing rate of quenching effect was increased under the flow rate of 221 cm/sec. On the other hand, it was decreased below this flow rate. 3. The quenching effect was influenced by the water temperature and the flow rate. But it was rather dependent upon the former than the latter. 4. Although the quenching effect appeared loosely in the water temperature of 50.deg. C, it was shown that the quenching effect increased in the low flow rate of 31 cm/sec. comparing with the still water. 5. It is desirable to design the quenching system to be over 1.2 * 10$^{4}$ in Reynolds Number or over, 3000$cm^{-1}$ / in V/v in order to increase the quenching effect of the system using open channel.annel.
