Reinforced concrete structures under cyclic exposure to the corrosive environment such as the tidal zone as a part of marine structure entail the higher risk of steel corrosion.In this paper, chloride penetration in concrete exposed to the tidal zone was predicted using a combined moisture and chloride transport model.For the analysis of moisture t
LEA (late embryogenesis abundant) proteins encode conserved N-terminal mitochondrial signal domains and C-terminal (A/TAEKAK) motif repeats, long-presumed to confer cell resistance to stress and death cues.This prompted the hypothesis that LEA proteins are central to mitochondria mechanisms that connect bioenergetics with cell responses to stress a
Near Earth Object Patrol Team (National Research Lab.) at KAO and YSTAR team at Yonsei University Observatory jointly developed a dome enclosure to be installed abroad together with a survey telescope.It has a fully-open clam shell type design to maximize Hub Assembly the fast slew capability of the telescope and is also sturdy enough to protect th
Background: Family of colony-stimulating factors (CSF) have an essential role on early cross talk between embryo and uterine endometrium.Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of the single dose of Granulocyte-CSF (G-CSF) injection on clinical outcome of assisted reproductive technology cycle in patients with repeated implanta
