SUS hexagonal bar have been widely used to manufacture the hexagonal bolt/nut, adapter and fittings. Raw SUS circular bar is used to make SUS hexagonal bar using drawing system. The purpose of this study is to investigate the characteristics, for instance, such as stress, strain and reduction ratio of area for bar. As the results, it was confirmed that the maximum stresses were occurred at edge of hexagonal bar, thus it could be worked as residual stress of hexagonal bar. The phenomenon of spring back was almost no found in all parts of hexagonal bar. Furthermore it showed that the reduction ratios of area were about mean 26% when SUS circular bar was changed to SUS hexagonal bar in this study.

울금(Curcuma longa L.)이 이상지질혈증 유발 흰쥐의 지질성분과 단백질 및 전해질 농도에 미치는 영향을 확인하기 위하여 기본 식이를 섭취시킨 ND군, 정상 실험군에 5% 울금 급여군(NT군), 이상지질혈증 유발 실험군(DD군)과 DD군에 5% 울금을 섭취시킨 실험군(DT군)으로 나누어 실험을 행하였다. 혈청 지질성분(총 콜레스테롤, LDL-콜레스테롤, 중성지질, 인지질, 유리 콜레스테롤, 콜레스테롤 에스테르), 혈당 및 유리지방산(non esterified fatty acid, NEFA)의 농도와 동맥경화지수 (atherosclerotic index, AI), 심혈관 위험지수(cardiac risk factor, CRF)는 이상지질혈증군에서 여타 실험군과 비교하였을 때 유의적인 증가를 나타내었으며(p<0.05), 5% 울금 급여군에서 감소시키는 것으로 나타났다. DD군에 비해 DT군에서 고밀도 지단백 콜레스테롤(high density lipoprotein-cholesterol, HDL-콜레스테롤) 및 총 콜레스테롤에 대한 HDL-콜레스테롤 농도 비는 유의적인 증가를 보였다 (p<0.05). 혈청 단백질의 농도에 있어서, DT군은 DD군에 비하여 흰쥐의 혈청 알부민(albumin) 농도와 알부민/글로불린 비(albumin/globulin ratio, A/G 비)의 증가 및 글로불린(globulin) 농도는 감소되는 것으로 관찰되었다. 나트륨(Na) 및 염소(Cl)는 DT군에서 DD군 보다 농도가 감소된 것으로 확인하였다. 이상의 결과, 5% 울금은 흰쥐의 혈청 지질성분 개선과 단백질 및 전해질 농도 조절에 도움이 되는 것으로 사료된다.

In the precedent study, the retractable-roof spatial structure was selected as the analytical model and a tuned mass damper (TMD) was installed to control the dynamic response for the earthquake loads. Also, it is analyzed that the installation location of TMD in the analytical model and the optimal number of installations. A single TMD mass installed in the analytical model was set up 1% of the mass of the whole structure, and the optimum installation location was derived according to the number of change. As a result, it was verified that most effective to install eight TMDs regardless of opening or closing. Thus, in this study, eight TMDs were installed in the retractable-roof spatial structure and the optimum mass ratio was inquired while reducing a single TMD. In addition, the optimum mass distribution ratio was identified by redistributing the TMD masses differently depending on the installation position, using the mass ratio of vibration control being the most effective for seismic load. From the analysis results, as it is possible to confirm the optimum mass distribution ratio according to the optimum mass ratio and installation location of the TMD in the the retractable-roof spatial structure, it can be used as a reference in the TMD design for large space structure.

Bisphenol A (BPA), a representative endocrine disrupting chemicals, has adverse effects on growth, development and reproduction in aquatic organisms. The object of this study was to investigate the modulation of antioxidant enzyme - coding genes using quantitative real time RT - PCR (qRT - PCR), enzyme activity and total protein content, to understand oxidative stress responses after exposure to BPA for 48 h in brackish water flea Diaphanosoma celebensis. The BPA (3 mg L-1) significantly upregulated the expression of Cu / Zn - SOD, Mn-SOD, and catalase (CAT ) mRNA. Three GST isoforms (GST-kappa, GST-mu, and GST-theta) mRNA levels significantly increased at the rate of 0.12 mg L-1 of BPA. In particular, GST-mu showed the highest expression level, indicating its key role in antioxidant response to BPA. SOD activity was induced with a concentration - dependent manner, and total protein contents was reduced. These findings indicate that BPA can induce oxidative stress in this species, and these antioxidants may be involved in cellular protection against BPA exposure. This study will provide a better understanding of molecular mode of action of BPA toxicity in aquatic organisms.

본 연구는 최근 산업곤충으로 주목받고 있는 쌍별귀뚜라미의 생산 효율 증대를 위해 수행되었다. 이를 위해 온도, 습도에 따른 부화율 및 부화 기간을 비롯하여 사육 밀도에 따른 생존율 및 산란 온도에 따른 산란수를 조사하였다. 적정 부화 상대습도는 90% 조건에서 부화율 90%를 보여 가장 높았다. 온도별 부화율 조사결과 20℃에서 98.3%로 가장 높았다. 또한, 온도별 부화 35℃조건에서 7.1일로 가장 짧게 나타났다. 또한 사육 용기에 3,000~20,000개체를 투입하여 35일간 조사한 밀도별 생존율은 34~18%였다. 쌍별귀뚜라미의 먹이에 채소 급여가 성장에 미치는 특성을 조사한 결과 생존율은 1.8배, 생체중량은 2.5배 높게 나타났다. 온도별 산란수 조사결과 25℃ 조건에서 30일 후 1,710개로 가장 높았다.

In this study, the static load test and the load transfer test were carried out to evaluate the structural performance of the circular anchorage proposed by the previous study. Specimens were fabricated according to KCI-PS101 and ETAG 013. As a result of the static load test, it was verified that the displacement of the wedge and the strand was kept constant when the tensile force of 80% of the nominal strength of the strand was applied. In the load transfer test, it was confirmed that all the specimens satisfied the stabilization formula of KCI-PS101 and ETAG 013. Post-tensioned one-way slab with circular anchorage were fabricated to evaluate the flexural behavior. All specimens exhibited the same flexural behavior and maximum load. However, the specimen with circular anchorage were advantageous than the rectangular anchorage one in terms of crack control of the anchorage zone.

The effect of physical and chemical treatments to reduce staphylococcal phages was investigated. To determine impact of physical treatment on viability of phages, two staphylococcal phages (SAP84 and SAP89) were treated with multiple heat (55oC and 60oC) and pH (pH4, 7, 10) conditions. Viability of SAP 84 was dramatically reduced at 60C and SAP 89 was completely inactivated at 60C within 25 min. Overall, the two phages were stable under all the pH conditions tested except for the SAP 89 at pH 10. Treatments, a 10% FAS (Ferrous Ammonium Sulfate) solution and various density of ethanol and sodium hypochlorite were used to reduce the two phages. SAP 84 was unstable in 50% and 70% ethanol. However, SAP 84 and SAP 89 showed high tolerance after exposure to 100 ppm of sodium hypochlorite which is known as an effective sterilizer. As soon as the two phages were treated with 10% FAS, which is used as a virucidal agent, they were inactivated and did not form any plaque. The result of this study provides additional evidence that staphylococcal phages can be controlled by various physicochemical treatments.
