The properties of buffer layer for thermal and chemical stability in coated conductor is a very important issue. $CeO_2$ has desirable thermal and chemical stability as well as good lattice match. In this study, $CeO_2$ was deposited by electron beam deposition. The MgO(001) single crystal and LMO buffered IBAD substrate(LMO/IBAD-MgO/$Y_2O_3/Al_2O_3$/Hastelloy) were used as substrates, which have $\Delta\phi$ values of ${\sim}8.9^{\circ}$. The epitaxial $CeO_2$ films was deposited with high deposition rate of $12{\sim}16\;{\AA}/sec$. During deposition, the change of oxygen partial pressure(${\rho}O_2$) does not cause change in c-axis texture. In case of $CeO_2$ on MgO single crystal, the substrate temperature was optimized at $750^{\circ}C$ with superior $\Delta\phi$ and $\Delta\omega$ value. Otherwise, In case of LMO buffered IBAD substrate, It was optimized at $650^{\circ}C$ with increasing its deposition thickness of $CeO_2$, which was finally obtained with best $\Delta\phi$ value of $5.5^{\circ}$, $\Delta\omega$ value of $2^{\circ}$ and Ra value of 2.2 nm.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of color measuring instrument by measuring the color of dental composite resins. Nine shade light cured composite resin disks were prepared (diameter : 15 mm, thickness : 4 mm). CIE $L^*a^*b^*$ color scale of each disk was measured with 3 different types of spectrophotometer [MiniScan XE plus (Model 4000S, Hunter Lab, USA), CM-3500d (Minolta, Japan) and Specbos 2100 Miniature VIS Reflection spectrometer (Serial No: 319416, JETI Technishe VIS Instrumentic GmbH. Germany)]. Miniscan XE Plus and CM-3500d using identical measuring geometry with different size of viewing aperture. But Specbos 2100 using different measuring geometry. Within the limitation of this study, there were color difference (${\Delta}E^*$) from 2.4 to 7.8 between Miniscan XE Plus and CM-3500d, but $L^*$, $a^*$, $b^*$ values showed the high correlation. However, there were great color difference (${\Delta}E^*$) in the extent of about 20 between instruments with the different measuring geometry. Therefore, color scale measured by color measuring instrument should be used as a relative value rather than an absolute value in the field of dentistry.

This study was undertaken to determine thermodynamic characteristics of B. subtilis p-4 and B. licheniformis p-5 proteases isolated from fermented anchovy paste. $K_m$ values of two proteases for casein as a substrate were 0.38mM in p-4 protease and 0.18mM in p-5 protease, respectively. Denaturation constants($K_D$) of p-4 and p-5 proteases were $12.2{\times}10^{-5}/sec\;and\;19.0{\times}10^{-5}/sec\;at\;40^{\circ}C,\;and\;35.7{\times}10^{-5}/sec\;and\;46.3{\times}10^{-5}/sec\;at\;50^{\circ}C$, respectively. Activation energies($E_a$) of p-4 and p-S pmteases were 19.6 Kcal/mole and 15.2kcal/mole, respectively. Free energy of activation(${\Delta}G^*$), activation enthalpy(${\Delta}H^*$) and activation entropy(${\Delta}S^*$) at $40^{\circ}C$ were 23.21Kcal/mole, 18.98Kcal/mole and -13.50 eu, respectively for p-4 protease and 22.93Kcal/mo1e, 14.58Kcal/mole and -26.68 eu, respectively for p-5 protease. The major amino acids in p-4 protease(151 residues of amino acid) were Gly, Glu, Pro, Asp, Ser, Ala, Lys and Leu, while those in p-5 protease(247 residues of amino acid) were Gly, Glu, Asp, Ala and Leu. It may be concluded that heat denaturation of two proteases showed liner regression curve and p-5 protease was more sensitive to heat than p-4 protease.

Associated with microbial decontamination and quarantine treatment of dried red pepper, the samples was gamma-irradiated (5, 10 kGy) and fumigated (methyl bromide/MeBr, phosphine/$PH_3$) to compare their Hunter's color (L, a, b, ${\Delta}E$) and sensory properties by types (whole, powder, pericarp, seed) during storage under room conditions($18{\pm}12^{\circ}C$). Whole pepper maintained higher lightness (L value) than other groups, while powdered pepper showed higher redness (a value) during storage. Immediately after treatments there was little difference in the overall color difference (${\Delta}E$) among the groups. After 8 months, a higher redness was observed in $PH_3$ group of whole pepper and 5 kGy group of powdered pepper, respectively(p<0.05). Redness of irradiated pericarps was apparently reduced following 8 months of storage and a similar pattern was found in fumigated samples. The yellowness (b value) of pepper seed was lowest in 10 kGy sample (p<0.05), but insignificant difference was observed among treatment groups with storage time. Sensory properties of whole and powdered peppery were little changed by both treatments under commercial conditions. Sensory scores of irradiated or fumigated samples were higher than that of non-treated control with storage time, which was more significant in the powdered than in the whole samples.

In this paper we show that if A ∈ L(X) and B ∈ L(Y), X and Y complex Banach spaces, then A ⊕ B ∈ L(X ⊕ Y) is subscalar if and only if both A and B are subscalar. We also prove that if A, Q ∈ L(X) satisfies AQ = QA and Q^p = 0 for some nonnegative integer p, then A has property (C) (resp. property (𝛽)) if and only if so does A + Q (resp. property (𝛽)). Finally, we show that A ∈ L(X, Y) and B, C ∈ L(Y, X) satisfying operator equation ABA = ACA and BA ∈ L(X) is subscalar with property (𝛿) then both Lat(BA) and Lat(AC) are non-trivial.

In this paper, the normalized variable V=(log N-B)(log ${\Delta}{\sigma}-C$-C), as derived from the probabilistic S-N field of Castillo and Canteli, is taken as a reference for calculation of damage accumulation and probability of failure using the Miner number in scenarios of variable amplitude loading. Alternative damage measures, such as the classical Miner and logarithmic Miner, are also considered for comparison between theoretical lifetime prediction and experimental data. The suitability of this approach is confirmed for it provides safe lifetime prediction when applied to fatigue data obtained for riveted joints made of a puddle iron original from the Fao bridge, as well as for data from experimental programs published elsewhere carried out for different materials (aluminium and concrete specimens) under distinct variable loading histories.

In this paper, a new carrier complex power series which represents nonlinear transfer function of high power amplifier is derived. Using this transfer function, the nonlinear transfer function of predistortive circuit for linearizing the distortion effect of a HPA(High Power Amplifier) is derived and fabricated. A measured gain and $P_{1dB}$ of the fabricated HPA in IMT-2000 basestation transmitting band are 34.06 dB and 35.4 dBm. The predistortive circuit using inverse carrier complex power series is fabricated and operated with HPA. The predistortive HPA improves C/I(Carrier to Intermodulation) ratio of HPA by 17.01 dB(@Pout=25.43 dBm/tone) with 2-tone at 2.1375 GHz and 2.1425 GHz.

The Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288c strain does not show haploid and diploid filamentous growth, and biofilm formation, because it has a flo8 nonsense mutation unlike ${\Sigma}1278b$ strain which has a FLO8 gene. During the heat stress experiments to investigate the role of ScKns1, LAMMER kinase in S. cerevisiae, we found that ${\Sigma}1278b$ strain revealed heat sensitivity at $37^{\circ}C$, a mild heat stress in contrast to S288c strain. We also found that the disruption of ScKns1 and the addition of sorbitol suppress heat sensitivity of ${\Sigma}1278b$ strain. These results suggest the possibility that Flo8 and ScKns1 may interact to transducer a signal for regulating heat stress through a novel signaling pathway.

We have fabricated a modified hairpin-type YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-{\delta}}$ (YBCO) 2-pole microstrip bandpass filter with the center frequency of 5.8 GHz. We designed a hairpin-type filter with interdigital-coupled inner poles to improve the filter performance. Compared to a typical hairpin-type filter of the same size, the center frequency, the bandwidth and the insertion loss appeared smaller by 14.5% ,29.6%, and 0.55 dB, respectively. The dimensions of the filter were 13.7mm ${\times}$3.3 mm. YBCO films deposited on r-cut sapphire buffered with a CeO$_2$thin layer were used fur making the filter.
