        With the 14 m radio telescope at DRAO and the 4 m at Nagoya University, we have made detailed maps of 12 C O and 13 C O emissions from two Barnard objects B133 and B134 in the J = 1 → O rotational transition lines. Usual LTE analyses of the CO observations led us to determine the distribution of column densities over an entire area encompassing both globules. Total gas masses estimated from the column density map are 90 M ⊙ and 20 M ⊙ for B133 and B134, respectively. The radial velocity of B133 is red shifted with respect to B134 by 0.8 k m s − 1 , which is too lagre to bind the two clouds as a binary system. We have shown that the usual stability analysis based on the simplified version of virial theorem with the second time-derivative of the moment of inertia term ¨ I being ignored could mislead us in determining whether a given cloud eventually collapses or not. The lull version of the scalar virial theorem with the ¨ I term is shown to be useful in following up the time-dependent variations of the cloud size R and its streaming velocity ˙ R as functions of time. Results of our stability analysis suggest that B133 will eventually collapse in ( 2 ∼ 4 ) × 10 6 years.

        A slope stability analysis has been done on Daesungri area by a computer program using limit equilibrium (Sarma method,1979). For this study, the authors modified the iteration technique and menu system of the algorithm which has been suggested by Hoek(1986). Sarma method is known as a suitable tool for evaluation of slope failure taking into account the kinematics of sliding blocks, and can be used for analysis of slopes of complex profiles such as circular, non-circular, planar sliding surfaces or any combination of these. The insertion of iteration technique and hydrodynamics in this method is very efficient, and gives an accurate estimate of static factor of safety. The analysis allows to specify different shear strength for each slice side and base, and therefore the submergence of any part of slopes is automatically analysed by taking the coordinates of phreatic surface. This program in combination with those stereographic technique developed by Appfied Geology Division of KIER(Korea Institute of Energy and Resources) in 1988 can be expected to give a useful result into evaluation of slope stability

        The oxidative stability of palm oil with moisture addition during heationg was investigated and the antioxidant effects of tocopherol, citric acid and sodium polyphosphate were evaluated. The addition of natural tocopherol up to 200 ppm level did not improve the oxidative stability of palm oil with moisture (1m1 H2O additive to 200g of oil at 180℃). The maximum antioxidant effect was observed at the Concentration of 400 ppm. Addition of citirc acid did not influence the effective concentration of tocopherol. Whereas addition of sodium polyphosphate and citric acid increased the antioxidant effect of tocopherol. The maximum synergistice effect was observed at the concentrations of 50 ppm citric acid and 50 ppm of sodium polyphosphate. Addition of 50 ppm citric acid and 50 ppm sodium polyphosphate to 100 ppm of tocopherol exceeded the antioxidant effect of 400 ppm tocopherol alone.

        The storage stability of Instant Ramyon by industrially prepared with palm, beef tallow and blended rapeseed oils for frying oil was studied. The products was stored under fluorescent light at 60℃ with illumination of 9,000 lux. Changes of peroxide value, total carbonyl value, and absorbance at 232 nm of lipids extracted from Ramyon were investigated during storage. The storage stability of Ramyon prepared with oils containing TBHQ had better than that prepared with a mixture of BHA and BHT. The Ramyon prepared with 4 part of rapeseed oil to 6 part of tallow containing 0.02% BHA/BHT showed higher storage stability than that prepared with palm oil alone but showed lower stability than that prepared with tallow alone both under the same condition of antioxidant treatment.

        A preliminary investigation was performed to evaluate the possibility of partially replacing palm oil and beef tallow by rapeseed oil for frying oils of instant Ramyon manufacturing. The AOM stability of rapeseed oil was inferior than of palm oil, but was comparable to that of beef tallow. When rapeseed oil was blended with palm oil or beef tallow, the AOM stability of the blended oil was improved. As far as AOM stability is concerned, best results were obtained with a blending ratio of 3 part of rapeseed oil to 7 part of palm oil and a ratio of 4 part of rapeseed oil to 6 part of beef tallow. These blended rapesee oils was retarded the formation of conjugated dienes and polymers during heating. The antioxidative effects on the stabilities of AOM and thermal in blended rapeseed oils showed that TBHQ was superior to tocopherols and a mixture of BHA and BHT was inferior.

        No difference was observed on autoxidative stability of triacylglycerols before and after randomyl interesterification. It indicate that randomization of the glyceride composition has no significant effect on the autoxidative stability. On the other hand, the autoxidation of randomyl interesterified vegetable oil was accelerated, caused mainly by decrease of tocopherols during the series of interesterification procedures.

        Radial distribution of internal density has been determined for thirteen subclouds in the three giant molecular cloud complexes accompanying Mon OB1, Mon OB2 and CMa OB1 associations, We modeled their radial density structures with the density distribution of isothermal gas spheres. Most of the subclouds, nine out of the thirteen, are well described by isothermal spheres of single component; while the rest four require an additional component. Total mass and potential energy of each subcloud are also derived from the radial density structure; thermal energy and internal velocity dispersion required for sustaining the density structure are deduced from the isothermal gas model. Our derived masses of the clouds are comparable to the values determined by Blitz (1978) under LTE assumption. This agreement suggests that the correction factor for non-LTE effect on mass-estimate is not far from unity. The ratio of the gravitational potential energy to the kinetic energy of thermal motion is as large as 250; hence the thermal motion alone cannot support these clouds against the gravity. Being supported by turbulence motion with velocities of six to seven times the thermal velocity, the clouds of one-component type seem to be in equilibrium with the gravity; while the clouds of two-component type are likely to be in the stage of gravitational collapse.

        The study was carried out to investigate interrelationships among the acid, peroxide, iodine, thiobarbituric acid values, and changes of fatty acid compositions of some vegetable oils added to soybean milk. A storage temperature of 100℃ was used for the oxidation of the oils, and to determine of variation of the chemical properties and changes of the fatty acid composition, all the samples were carried out in every 8 hours for 40 hours. The changes in fatty acid compositions of the vegetable oils were measured by high performance liquid chromatography. The results obtained were as follow; 1. The acid values of the fresh soybean, corn, and palm oils added to the soybean milk were 0.05, 0.12, and 0.06, whereas those of the oils stored for 40 hours were 0.08, 0.18, and 0.09, respectively. 2. The peroxide values of the fresh soybean, corn, and palm oils added to the soybean milk were 0.3, 1.0, and 0.3, whereas those of the oils stored for 40 hours were 1.1, 1.1, and 0.9, respectively. 3. The iodine values of the fresh soybean, corn, and palm oils added to the soybean milk were 132.7, 124.1, and 57.0, whereas those of the oils stored for 40 hours were 127.3 108.3, and 52.0, respectively. 4. The thiobarbituric acid values of fresh soybean, corn, and palm oils added to the soybean milk were 0.18, 0.05, and 0.02, whereas those of the oils stored for 40 hours were 0.25, 0.19, and 0.07, respectively. 5. The percent content of the major fatty acids of the soybean, corn, and palm oils freshly added to the soybean milk were 2.3%,2.5%,and 25.2%for palmitic acid, 3.2%,3.2%,and 4.8%for stearic acid, 39.7%, 40.7%, and 59.3% for oleic acid, 49.9%, 53.0%, and 10.5% for linoleic acid, and 4.7%, 0.4%, and 0.7% for linolenic acid, respectively. Those of the oils stored for 40 hours were 2.9%, 4,5%, and 36.7% for palmitic acid, 8.5%, 6.8%, and 7.0% for stearic acid, 37.8%, 38.8%, and 49.2% for oleic acid, 46.2%, 49.5%, and 5.8% for linoleic acid, and 4.2%, 0.1%, and 0.1% for linolenic acid, respectively. The fatty acid compositions changed significantly: the amounts of the unsaturated fatty acid decreased considerably. The rsults of the present study demonstrated greater stability of the palm oil as compared with the stability of soybean oil and corn oil added to the soybean milk.

        In this study, the effect on the stability of Aerobic Granular Sludge (AGS) caused by an AGS separator was investigated. The AGS separator was a hydrocyclone. The main factors of the AGS separator were filter pore size (0.125∼0.600 mm), conical-to-cylindrical ratio (1.5∼3.0), and operating time (1∼20 min). The AGS/mixed liquor suspended solid (MLSS) ratio gradually increased to 0.500 mm (AGS/MLSS: 84.3±3.0%). AGS was best separated at the conical-to-cylindrical ratio of 2.5 (AGS/MLSS: 84.7±3.3%). As the operating time increased, the AGS separation performance also tended to increase. The shortest AGS separator run time, but the highest AGS separation performance was 10 min (87.0±2.5%). AGS stability was evaluated by operating the selected AGS separator and sequencing batch reactor. The average removal efficiencies of TOC, TCODCr, SS, TN, and TP were 95.7%, 96.9%, 93.0%, 89.0%, and 96.2%, respectively, which met the effluent standards in Korea. In addition, the AGS/MLSS ratio tended to remain constant, and the sludge volume index demonstrated a tendency to decrease from 140 mL/g to 70 mL/g. During the operation, the particles of AGS in optical microscope observations gradually increased.

        Stability and sustainability of the biggest banks in any country are extremely important. When big banks become unstable and vulnerable, they typically stop lending. The resulting credit squeeze pushes the economy into recession or a slow growth path. The present study examines the financial stability and sustainability of the 30 large banks operating in the six Gulf Cooperation Council countries. These banks represent 70% of the GCC banking market. Monte Carlo simulation was attempted assuming that key drivers can vary randomly by twenty percent on either side of the current values. The conclusions are drawn based on 300 simulation trails of the five-year forecast balance and income statement of each bank. Year 2020 is not favorable for the GCC countries because of the COVID-19 pandemic and low oil prices, though the future years may be better. The study identifies several banks, which may become financially unsustainable because the simulations indicate the possibility of negative profitability, unacceptably low capital ratios and potential for heavy credit losses during periods of economic turbulence, which is the current situation due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Through simulation the paper is able to throw light on which factors lead to bank instability and weakness.

        This study examines the relationship between gender diversity (women on the board and women on the audit committee) and a firm’s financial stability. The ordinary least square analysis was used to determine the relationship. To measure the financial stability of Malaysian suspect firms, i.e., firms with the lowest positive earnings, the Altman (1993) Z-Score measurement was utilized. The results indicate that women on the board are significantly and negatively associated with the firm’s financial stability. That is, they are related to low financial stability, which contradicts the agency and resource dependence theories. Regarding women directors on the audit committee, there is no significant relationship with financial stability, meaning that they cannot protect the company against financial distress. These results are robust and do not change when using different measurements of gender diversity, one-year lag of independent variables, and other methods of analysis, namely random effect panel data. This study is the first to alert policymakers, stakeholders, researchers, and society in general to the need to re-evaluate and strengthen the role of women directors in improving firms’ financial stability, particularly in emerging economies like Malaysia.
