In this technology development, we have developed an automation system after developing a material rotation mixing process so that the manual process of sound absorbing materials can be supplied in quantities. After setting up 5kgf supply of the fused acoustic material, the setting value of 5kg was automatically supplied to the molded frame to reach the quantification supply. In the process of producing noise goods between floors, the automatic compression system was developed, which was a manual operation of three persons, and the production of one person was allowed, and the production of 200 sound absorbers per day, It has improved to 450. Quantitative supply unit was developed to reach 50.7mm for target 50±3mm based on the sound absorption product thickness indication, reducing the defect rate to less.

By analyzing the status of Korean tire labeling regulation and comparing the performance indicators of tire labeling in different countries, this paper expounds the serious impact of tire noise on traffic noise pollution, and puts forward that in order to improve the comfort of car ride, control traffic noise pollution and build a green tire industry, the tire labeling system should be improved, and the corresponding requirements for tire rolling noise should be put forward according to the road conditions in Korea.

The study on the tire noise due to the On-Board Sound Intensity test method. The object of this project is to prepare the countermeasure of the noise reduction according to collect tire/road noise data under various influencing factors by using On-Board Sound Intensity test method. To accomplish the object ; A automotive is used as a test platform to test tire/road noise by changing different types of tires and using On-Board Sound Intensity test system. The influence of inflation pressure, road, load, speed and pattern type on tire/road noise is compared and analyzed. At the same time, the mechanism of tire/road noise is analyzed, which provides a experimental basis for tire noise reduction.

To preserve the superior genetic resources and restore the endangered species, Somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) has been used widely. In Korea, the research of dog cloning has made outstanding achievements including the production of the world`s first cloned dog. Sapsaree (Sapsalgae), the representative dog of Gyeongsan-si was designated as a Korea natural monument (No. 368). This male dog used in this study has azoospermia due to unknown cause. In this study, the aim was to confirm the cause of infertility in the cell donor dog and to evaluate the reproduction potential of dog cloning using infertile male dog by SCNT. First, to confirm the infertility of the cell donor dog, the reproductive history and the testis were evaluated. The breeding histology was not recorded in individual document. In histopathology, the Sertoli cell tumor was confirmed in biopsy of the cell donor dog after death. But, these tumors are predominantly in older dogs. Second, we produced the cloned dogs with the somatic cells of the infertile dog and the appearance was similar with the cell donor dog. Also, microsatellite analysis confirmed the genetic relationship between the cell donor and clone dogs. Third, the potential breeding capacity of the cloned dog was confirmed. In T4 assay, the normal dog (same age with cloned dogs), cell donor dog, and cloned dogs was investigated. The cell donor dog with azoospermia had very low T4 level, and cloned dogs showed higher level of T4 than normal dogs. In CASA, There was no significant difference in sperm motor ability between normal dogs and cloned dogs. As a result, cloned dogs produced by SCNT had no problem regarding the reproductive function of the testis. In AI experiment, the semen of clone dogs was used to fertilize a natural female bitch and was diagnosed pregnancy by ultrasonography. In total, 7 puppies were born by normal delivery (male: 3, female: 4). In conclusion, this study confirmed that the reproduction problem of non-genetic infertility can generate a normal descendant by SCNT. Also, the first successful research to restore infertile dogs was completed. Furthermore, SCNT would be useful for the restoration of endangered species and application of superior traits.

As a key element in the RED process, the membrane influences the overall power output of the RED stack. Especially, the membrane resistance is one of important properties of the membrane. In this study, CEM(cation exchange membrane) and AEM(anion exchange membrane) consisting of cross-linked polymers in a porous polyolefin substrate were developed to simultaneously satisfy high performance and cost-down of the applied RED system. Physico-chemically stable and ultrathin ion exchange pore filling membranes (cation exchange membranes and anion exchange membranes) with high ion transfer coefficients have been developed for reverse electrodialysis as an energy conversion system. The polymer electrolytes in both cases of cation exchangeable and anion exchangeable ones consisting of the whole hydrocarbon materials were introduced into porous hydrocarbon substrates and crosslinked by radical polymerization in this work. The thickness of the prepared pore filling membranes was controlled between 16 and 23 micrometers to extremely lower membrane resistance and to increase ion transfer. All the properties of the prepared membranes were compared with commercial membranes obtained from Tokuyama, Fuji, and Fuma-Tech. Furthermore, RED cell performance and energy efficiency using the prepared pore filling membranes were also evaluated.

We estimate the fractal dimension of the ρ Ophiuchus Molecular Cloud Complex, associated with star forming regions. We selected a cube (v, l, b) database, obtained with J = 1−0 transition lines of 12CO and 13CO at a resolution of 22′′ using a multibeam receiver system on the 14-m telescope of the Five College Radio Astronomy Observatory. Using a code developed within IRAF, we identified slice-clouds with two threshold temperatures to estimate the fractal dimension. With threshold temperatures of 2.25 K (3σ) and 3.75 K (5σ), the fractal dimension of the target cloud is estimated to be D = 1.52–1.54, where P / AD/2 , which is larger than previous results. We suggest that the sampling rate (spatial resolution) of observed data must be an important parameter when estimating the fractal dimension, and that narrower or wider dispersion around an arbitrary fit line and the intercepts at NP = 100 should be checked whether they relate to rms noise level or characteristic structure of the target cloud. This issue could be investigated by analysing several high resolution databases with different quality (low or moderate sensitivity).
