The sealed, tuned liquid column gas damper (TLCGD) with gas-spring effect extends the frequency range of application up to about 5 Hz and efficiently increases the modal structural damping. In this paper the influence of several TLCGDs to reduce coupled translational and rotational vibrations of plan-asymmetric buildings under wind or seismic loads is investigated. The locations of the modal centers of velocity of rigidly assumed floors are crucial to select the design and the optimal position of the liquid absorbers. TLCGD's dynamics can be derived in detail using the extended non-stationary Bernoulli's equation for moving reference systems. Modal tuning of the TLCGD renders the optimal parameters by means of a geometrical transformation and in analogy to the classical tuned mass damper (TMD). Subsequently, fine-tuning is conveniently performed in the state space domain. Numerical simulations illustrate a significant reduction of the vibrations of plan-asymmetric buildings by the proposed TLCGDs.

'남고' 품종의 국내산 청매실을 $30\;{\mu}m$ 두께의 LDPE 필름 봉투에 넣고 탄산가스 흡착제로서 $Ca(OH)_2$, 에틸렌 흡착제로서 $KMnO_4$와 이들의 혼합 가스흡착제를 첨가하여 밀봉한 후 $25^{\circ}C$에 저장하면서 일반성분 및 호흡특성 변화를 관찰하였다. 저장중 적정 산도와 가용성 고형분은 감소하고 pH는 증가하여 숙성중 변화와 반대되는 경향을 보였으며, 청매실의 황화와 과육 연화에 의한 품질저하는 에틸렌 흡착제를 사용함으로써 현저히 억제되어 상온에서도 10일간 선도유지 효과를 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 에틸렌 흡착제를 첨가한 경우는 상온저장 10일 후에도 생리장해가 거의 발생되지 않았으며 호흡률의 변화도 거의 관찰되지 않았다. 청매실을 상온 유동할 때 적정 투과성의 플라스틱 필름에 밀봉포장하고 일정량의 에틸렌 흡착제를 사용함으로써 포장내부의 기체조성을 $CO_2$ 농도 7-8%, $O_2$ 농도 2-3%로 유지할 경우 안정적인 호흡패턴으로 생리적 장해를 억제하여 청매실의 신선도를 유지하는데 뚜렷한 효과가 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

Sound pressure levels in the receiving room while testing airborne sound insulation performance are varied by the measuring points. This may increase the measurement error, then decrease the measurement reliability. With this reason the research has carried out on the method to reduce deviations of sound pressure level in the ISO type rectangular laboratory focusing on the measurement of airborne sound insulation performance. Tests were made to see the effect of sound absorption in the receiving room, loudspeaker locations, microphones locations and flanking transmission path. Consequently, it was resulted that sound absorption in the receiving room and the loudspeaker location have influence on the sound level deviations especially in the low frequency. The microphone location was very important to get measurement reliability. The effective measuring point, which the sound level difference with average sound pressure level is within 2 dB, could yield most reliable average sound pressure level. Therefore it is necessary to find the effective measuring points in the receiving room. Flanking transmission path should be sealed using sound absorber or magnet etc. to prevent from lowering the sound insulation performance.
