In the present study, a feasibility of an advanced oxidation process using UV/Hydrogen peroxide($H_2O_2$) system equipped with a medium pressure lamp for secondary effluent reclamation was investigated. Initial concentration of $H_2O_2$ and pH were changed to determine the optimum operation condition for the system. The removal efficiency of color was than 80% with 14.3mg/L of initial $H_2O_2$ and 5 minute of contact time in the UV/$H_2O_2$ system. The color removal was analyzed using first-order reaction equation. The dependence of rate constant (k) on initial $H_2O_2$ represented the rational relationship with maximum value. Residual $H_2O_2$ caused increase of effluent COD, since analyzing agent, dichromate, reacted with $H_2O_2$ in the sample. Therefore, excess initial concentration of $H_2O_2$ would significantly affect effluent COD measurement. At pH variation experiment, both residual $H_2O_2$ and color showed peak in the neutral pH range with the same pattern. Effect of $H_2O_2$ dose also enhanced color removal but raised residual $H_2O_2$ problem in the continuous operation UV system. In conclusion, these results indicated that medium pressure UV/$H_2O_2$ system could be used to control color in the secondary effluent for reclamation and reuse.

The residual tissue concentraion of the widely used aquatic antibacterial agent, oxolinic acid, was surveyed in eels collected from fish markets of Chonbuk Province, Korea. Their concentrations in the dorsolateral muscle were widely varying. In about 32% of samples examined, oxolinic acid was not detected. In about 16% of those samples in which oxolinic acid was detected, the concentration was above 0.1 ppm. The tissue distrubution of the agent in major organs was in the rank order of kidney>liver>plasma>muscle. When the muscle samples which contained residual oxolinic acid were baked for up to 10 min, there was no change in the drug concentration. Their concentration declined to about 50% by baking for 30 min at which time the tissue turned to the texture of charcoal. The extreme stability of oxolinic acid to heating process was confirmed with muscle samples from eels to which a high dose of oxolinic acid was administered, and also with an aqueous oxolinic acid solution of known concentration. It is suggested that an effective regulatory measure should be initiated to keep eel consumers from residual oxolinic acid impact.

This paper analysis the AM-SCS-MMA (Adaptive Modulus-Soft Constraint Satisfaction-MMA) based on the adaptive modulus and minimus-disturbance technique in order to improve the stability and robustness in low signal to noise power of current MMA adaptive equalization algorithm. In AM-SCS-MMA, it updates the filter coefficient applying the adaptive modulus and minimum-disturbance technique of deterministic optimization problem instead of LMS or gradient descend algorithm for obtain the minimize the cost function of adaptive equalization. It is possible to improve the equalizer filter stability, robustness to the various noise characteristic and simultaneous reducing the intersymbol interference due to the amplitude and phase distortion occurred at channel. The computer simulation were performed for confirming the improved performance of SCS-MMA. For these, the output signal constellation of equalizer, residual isi, MSE, EMSE (Excess MSE) which means the channel traking capability and SER which means the robustness were applied. As a result of computer simulation, the AM-SCS-MMA have slow convergence time and less residual quantities after steady state, more good robustness in the poor signal to noise ratio, but poor in channel tracking capabilities was confirmed than MMA.

Purpose: The aim of this retrospective study was to compare marginal bone loss and survival rates of double short implants(multiple implant) which had been installed and restored in severely atrophic maxillary molar site without a grafting procedure. Material and Method: The subjects were patients (90 patients, 180 implants) who had been installed double short implants in severely atrophic maxillary single molar site without bone augmentation procedure from 2006 to 2014 in dental clinic in Chuncheon city. Following data were collected from dental records and radiographic panoramic views: patient's age, gender, smoking status, implant site, timing of implant installation, residual ridge height. The correlation between those factors and survival rate and marginal bone loss were analyzed. Statistical analysis was performed using Chi-square test, Student's t- test and ANOVA. Result: Eleven implants in 6 patients failed and the cumulative survival rate was 93.9%. No significant differences were found in relation to the following factors: patient's age, gender, implant site, timing of implant installation (P> .05). There were significant differences in smoking status and residual ridge height(P< .05). The average follow-up time was $45{\pm}14.7months$. The mean marginal bone loss of survived 169 implants was $0.08{\pm}0.59mm$. Conclusion: Despite the short term outcomes, the survival rate of double short implants was comparable to normal length implants. This study demonstrated that placement of double short implants without the use of bone grafting procedure for severely atrophic posterior maxilla is a simple and predictable treatment procedure.

The various surface treated conditions of Fe-3.0%Ni-0.7%Cr-1.4%Mn-X steel such as as-received, ion nitriding, DLC coated, DLC coated after nitriding for 3 hrs and 6 hrs were investigated to evaluate the beneficial effect for plastic mold steel. Micro Vickers hardness tester was used to estimate nitriding depth from the hardness profile and to measure hardness on the surface. Elastic modulus and residual stress were measured by a nanoindentator. Scratch test and SP (small ball punch test) were utilized to assess the adhesive strength of DLC coating. The depth of nitriding layer was measured as $50{\mu}m$ for the condition of 3 hrs nitriding and $90{\mu}m$ for that of 6 hrs nitriding. Hardness, elastic modulus, residual stress of DLC coating were 20.37 GPa, 162.78 GPa and -1456 MPa respectively. Residual stress on the surface of DLC coating after nitriding could increase to -3914 MPa by introducing nitriding before DLC coating. During the 'Ball-On-Disc' test ${\gamma}^{\prime}$ particles pulled out from the surface of nitrized layer tend to enhance abrasive wear mode since the fraction of ${\gamma}^{\prime}$ (Fe4N) in ion-nitrized layer is known to increases with nitriding time. Thus the specific wear rate of the nitriding layer increased. Comparing with nitriding the specific wear rate in work piece disc as well as ball decreased prominently in DLC coating due to the remarkable reduction in friction coefficient.

The residual effect of silicate fertilizer (crushed slag from the steel industry) on rice yield was evaluated through 4-year field experiments. Applications of the silicate fertilizer at rate of 2500 kg/ha to Gangseo sandy loam soil (Fluvaquentic Eutrochrepts) very low in available silica increased the grain yield by 7 to 12% depending on the mesh size of the fertilizer in the first year. The yield in the fourth year showed no residual effect. Seventeen to eighteen months after the application, available silica content of the soil (1N-sodium acetate extractable) decreased down to 130 ppm which is a, base level for the silicate fertilizer application. Decreasing tendency of available silica concentration of the soil with time differed according to the mesh size of the silicate fertilizer applied. In 36 to 48 months after the application, the extractable silica content of the soil converged to 90 to 100 ppm.

The reliability of control system composed of electronic parts has been studied by DoD since 1960, and has been undertaken mainly by Europe for railways. Especially in Korea, a study on reliability of signalling equipment has been taken since 2000, requiring reliability test for effective maintenance of old type signalling equipment which no longer has information on its past reliability. This study evaluates the reliability test in units of parts for old type signalling equipment; for instance, failure rate in units of parts, or failure data during operation; which was utilized without its consistent reliability monitoring and analysis data for over 20 years. Also, reliability change at this point in time has been estimated by using residual life span function, and a model which can evaluate the possibility of extended operation through stress acceleration test has been developed. This model will be utilized to establish future maintenance policy for train operating company's operation on old type signalling equipment.

Tooth bleaching has been prevailing recently for its ability to recover the color and shape of natural teeth without reduction of tooth material. However, it has been reported that bleaching procedure adversely affects the adhesive bond strength of composite resin to tooth. At the same time the bond strength was reported to be regained by application of some chemical agents. The purpose of this in vitro study was to investigate the effect of the removal of residual peroxide on the composite- enamel adhesion and also evaluated fracture mode between resin and enamel after bleaching. Sixty extracted human anterior and premolars teeth were divided into 5 groups and bleached by combined technique using of office bleaching with 35 % hydrogen peroxide and matrix bleaching with 10% carbamide peroxide for 4 weeks. After bleaching, the labial surfaces of each tooth were treated with catalase, 70% ethyl alcohol, distilled water and filled with composite resin. Shear bond strength was tested and the fractured surfaces were also examined with SEM. Analysis revealed significantly higher bond strength values. (p＜0.05) for catalase-treated specimens, but water-treated specimens showed reduction of bond strength, alcohol- treated specimens had medium value between the two groups(p＜0.05). The fracture mode was shown that the catalase group and the alcohol group had cohesive failure but the water sprayed group had adhesive failure. It was concluded that the peroxide residues in tooth after bleaching seems to be removed by gradual diffusion and the free radical oxygen from peroxide prevents polymerization by combining catalyst in the resin monomer. Therefore it may be possible to eliminate the adverse effect on the adhesion of composite resin to enamel after bleaching by using water displacement solution or dentin bonding agent including it for effective removal of residual peroxide.

316L stainless steels have been widely used in many engineering fields, because of their high corrosion resistance and good mechanical properties. However, welding or aging treatment may induce intergranular corrosion and stress corrosion cracking etc. Since these types of corrosion are closely related to the formation of chromium carbide in grain boundaries, the alloys are controlled by methods such as the lowering of carbon content, solution heat treatment. This work focused on the intergranular corrosion mechanism of slightly-sensitized and Ultrasonic Nano-crystal Surface Modification (UNSM)-treated 316L stainless steel. Samples were sensitized for 1, 5, and 48 hours at $650^{\circ}C$ in $N_2$ gas atmosphere. Subsequently UNSM treatments were carried out on the surface of the samples. The results were discussed on the basis of the sensitization by chromium carbide and carbon segregation, the residual stress and grain refinement. Even though chromium carbide was not precipitated, the intergranular corrosion rate of 316L stainless steel was drastically increased with aging time, and it was confirmed that the increased intergranular corrosion rate of slightly-sensitized (not carbide formed) 316L stainless steel was due to the carbon segregation along the grain boundaries. However, UNSM treatment improved the intergranular corrosion resistance of aged stainless steels, and its improvement was due to the reduction of carbon segregation and the grain refinement of the outer surface, including the introduction of compressive residual stress.

The root joint in the welding structures are apt to failure by the stress concentration which is occurred by the external force. Therefore, in the safety and reliability of structure, the complete penetration joint welding which are obtained by the groove welding with edge preparation is generally required. Nevertheless, fillet T-joint welding without edge preparation is often carried out in the fields to reduce working time and consumption of welding electrode, however, this process is likely to produce inadequate joint penetration such as root gap. In this paper, the focus of research is to investigate distribution of welding residual stresses in the plate(or flange) and web of T-joint weld, and especially in the near of root gap notch that is due to incomplete joint penetration. For the analysis, we have chosen model of T-joint weld in the cases of single and multi-pass welding with submerged arc welding and analyzed model by using finite element programs considering the heat conduction and thermal elasto-plastic theory.
