The mechanics of the walking shrimps is useful to clarify the fishing mechanisms in relation to the fishing gears. The gaiting behaviour concerning step positions and step timings on the flat board and the nettings, 16, 23 and 37mm in mesh size were experimented in the aquarium using video camera from June to October, 1984. It was found that the irregular movements of walking legs in step positions and step patterns were appeared on the nettings more than the flat surface due to the absence of mechanical contact with the substrates. The mean stride length and coefficient of variation of the periods in the walking shrimps on the flat board were significantly different from those values on the nettings, However, the velocity, the period and the ratio of forestroke to backstroke were unsteadily changed with the carapace length, and showed little difference under the four conditions. The mean phase difference on the flat board was greater than those values on the nettings which were decreased, while standard deviation on the flat board was smaller than those values on the nettings which were increased with increasing in mesh size.

The purpose of this study was to figure out the best condition in growth and sod quality of Mentha spp. according to cutting methods and soil depth. Applemint (M. suaveolens), Peppermint (M. piperita), and Spearmint (M. spicata) were used. Regardless of cultivar and soil depth condition, the growth rate in top cutting was higher than layering method. The difference between layering and layering without apical meristem was not significant. Optimal condition for growth was 5cm depth of soil. However, the shallower the depth of the soil, the better quality of sod. Among three Mentha species, M suavelens showed plant height and node number and M. piperita had shoot number were higher than other variety. The best condition of sod was top cutting and 1cm depth of soil regardless of cultivar.

In this paper a new analytic method for Ladder networks by weighted tree is proposed. In contrast to conventional tree concept that represents only information structure, in this paper, a tree with hierarchical structure is established by giving wei체t of impedance Z and admittance Y to branch and representing each node of its branch as a pair of voltage and current. Then, by defining generation level from tree structure and by parsing between standand level and arbitrary level, driving point impedance, transfer function and transfer impedance are simultaneously obtained instead of complex calculation method by inspection. The validity of this method is proved by the reciprocal theorem and this method is applied to four-terminal constants and the feedback network.

Black leaf spot disease occurred on Dendrobium phalaenopsis grown in farmer's fields located in Bonggangmyon, Gwangyang-eup, Jeonnam, Korea. Black small spots occurred on leaves at initial stage of infection and the infected leaves turned yellow from the tip. The yellow leaves were falled, resulting in stem blighting or eventual death of the entire plant. White mycelial colony of the causal fungus grown on potato dextrose agarturned dark violet later and optimum temperature for the mycelial growth was $25^{\circ}C$. The causal fungus isolated from the black leaf spot on D. phalaenopsis was identified as Fusarium moniliforme based on the mycological characteristics and pathogenicity. The fungus also caused same symptoms on leaves of Phalaenopsis sp. and Cymbidium sp. as well sa D. phalaenopsis by wound inoculation. This is the first report on black leaf spot of D. phalaenopsis caused by F.moniliforme in Korea.

This experiment was carried out to determine the effects of genotyes (cultivars) and kinds of cytokinins and concentrations on shoot multiplication of roses (Rosa hybrida) by nodal culture. The results from this study were summarized as follows. Shoot multiplication was significantly affected by genotypes. Most shoots were produced from 'Carl Red 'rather than two other cultivars, 'Golden Emblem' and 'Tineke'. Among 3 cytokinins, BA was more significantly effective for multiplication than two other cytokinins, 2iP and kinetin. However subsequent shoot growth after multiplication was more enhanced by 2iP and kinetin rather than BA. An optimal concentration of cytokinin for shoot multiplication was 1 mg/L in this study but BA at 1-5 mg/L was considered optimal for multiplication ratio itself. Subsequent shoot growth was significantly inhibited by increases in cytokinin concentrations, regardless of kinds of cytokinin.

For the purpose of possibility study on development of an acoustic tweezer using standing waves and very high frequency ultrasound focused beams, a system which can manipulate the position of particles in water has been constructed. It can move the particles to near focal point of a focused beam by the radiation force of standing waves, and then the particles would be trapped by the radiating force of the focused beam. The results show that micro sphere particles were trapped well at nodes of the standing waves and their position can be easily manipulated by frequency control. And, even though the radiation force by single focused beam pushes a particle away from the transducer, two focused confronted beams can trap it at near center.

This study aimed to investigate the current uses of subheadings that appear in medical science journal abstracts and to discuss its potential implications for medical science from the perspectives of library and information science. To conduct this study, the following nine sub-fields in medical science were selected: cancer, ethics, genetics, infectious disease, neurology, pediatrics, immunology, psychiatry, and cardiology. Random sample data were drawn based on the years 2010 to 2015 from the PubMed database. This study investigated the extent of the uses of subheadings, variants of subheadings, and common formation of subheadings with the help of a frequency analysis. The specific findings of this study are summarized as the following: 1) more traditional abstracts are used across almost all sub-fields of medical science; 2) on average, 4.1 subheadings were used in the sample dataset; and 3) the most frequently used set of subheadings is OBJECTIVES, METHODS, RESULTS, and CONCLUSIONS. This subheading set appears to be the de facto standard across all medical science journals. The analysis of subheadings in structured abstracts and the issues raised in this study can be beneficial for journal editors and other academics in medical science as well as library and information science.

A novel method of adaptive beam forming is presented in this paper. The proposed technique provides for a suboptimal beam pattern that increases the Signal to Noise/Interference Ratio (SNR/SIR), thus, eventually increases the capacity of the communication channel, under an assumption that the desired signal is dominant compared to each component of interferences at the receiver, which is precoditionally achieved in Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) mobile communications by the chip correlator. The main advantages of the new technique are:(1)The procedure requires neither reference signals nor training period, (2)The signal interchoerency does not affect the performance or complexity of the entire procedure, (3)The number of antennas does not have to be greater than that of the signals of distinct arrival angles, (4)The entire procedure is iterative such that a new suboptimal beam pattern be generated upon the arrival of each new data of which the arrival angle keeps changing due tot he mobility of the signal source, (5)The total amount of computation is tremendously reduced compared to that of most conventional beam forming techniques such that the suboptimal beam pattern be produced at vevery snapshot on a real-time basis. The total computational load for generating a new set of weitht including the update of an N-by-N(N is the number of antenna elements) autocovariance matrix is $0(3N^2 + 12N)$. It can further be reduced down to O(11N) by approximating the matrix with the instantaneous signal vector.

Neurofascin, one of the members of L1CAM, has been known to have some important roles during the development of nerve fibers. In order to investigate the role of neurofascin associated with the myelination of peripheral nerves, the localization of neurofascin in myelinated rat sciatic nerve fibers was studied with the immuno-fluorescence and immune-electron microscopy and the results are as follows; 1. According to the myelination is going on, neurofascin localization was dramatically changed in the sciatic nerve fibers. 2. In the myelinated fibers, neurofascin was weakly localized along the axolemma at the node of Ranvier. 3. Neurofascin was also apparantly localized at the non-compact area of Schwann cell membrane such as paranodal loop, Schmidt-Lantermann incisure, inner & outer mesaxons in the myelinated fibers. From the above results, neurofascin is likely to have a role to sustain the ideal gap of apposing membranes of Schwann cell, so it may enable to materials transport in the myelin sheath.

The present study investigated the effect of physiologically active polysaccharide (SP1) isolated from Salicornia herbacea on streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Male Spraque-Dawley rats were divided into four groups which were normal control group (NC), diabetic control group (DC), diabetic CSP group (DCSP), and diabetic SP1 group (DSP1). Animals were administrated with 2% experimental drinks for 6 weeks. The levels of glucose, triglyceride, total cholesterol, and high density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol in the serum were measured before and after intake of test compounds. The levels of glucose and triglyceride in the DSP1 were significantly lower than those in the DC by 25% and 20%, respectively. The levels of total cholesterol and high density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol in the DSP1 were similar to those in the DC. These results suggest that SP1 substantially exhibit anti-hyperglycemic and anti-hypertriglyceridemic activity in diabetic rats. Therefore SP1 is believed to show remarkable anti-diabetic effect on streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats.
