We introduce a concept of countably strong inclusions ${\triangleleft}$ and that of ${\triangleleft}-{\sigma}$-ideals and prove that the subframe $S({\triangleleft})$ of the frame ${\sigma}IdL$ of ${\sigma}$-ideals is a Lindel$\ddot{o}$fication of a frame L. We also deal with conditions for which the converse holds. We show that any countably approximating regular $D({\aleph}_1)$ frame has the smallest countably strong inclusion and any frame which has the smallest $D({\aleph}_1)$ Lindel$\ddot{o}$fication is countably approximating regular $D({\aleph}_1)$.

The arsenical resistance (ars) operon was cloned from a 67-kilobase pair (kb) plasmid, which was previously shown to be responsible for arsenic salts resistance in K. oxytoca D12. When plasmid pAE48, carrying the ars operon, was transformed into E. coli, transformed cells displayed enhanced survival in the presence of 4 mM arsenite, 50 mM arsenate, or 0.4 mM antimonite. The nucleotide sequence of the 5.6-kb fragment encoding arsenical resistance revealed five open reading frames (ORFs), which were predicted to encode polypeptides of 12.8 (arsR), 13.4 (arsD), 62.6 (arsA), 45 (arsB), and 16.7 (arse) kilodaltons (kDa). Each ORF was preceded by a ribosome binding site. A putative promoter-like sequence was identified upstream of arsR, and a possible termination site was found downstream of arsC. When the deduced amino acid sequences of the K. oxytoca Dl2 Ars proteins were compared with the amino acid sequences of the E. coli R773 Ars proteins, a significant amino acid similarity was observed (87.9％ for ArsR, 89.2％ for ArsD, 83.2％ for ArsA, 92.6％ for ArsB, and 91.3％ for ArsC), suggesting an evolutionary relationship of the ars genes of E. coli plasmid R773 and K. oxytoca Dl2.

Lactic acid is an environmentally benign organic acid that could be used as a raw material for biodegradable plastics if it can be inexpensively produced by fermentation. Two genes (ldhL and ldhD) encoding the L-(+) and D-(-) lactate dehydrogenases (L-LDH and D-LDH) were cloned from Lactobacillus sp., RKY2, which is a lactic acid hyper-producing bacterium isolated from Kimchi. Open reading frames of ldhL for and ldhD for the L and D-LDH genes were 962 and 998 bp, respectively. Both the L(+)- and D(-)-LDH proteins showed the highest degree of homology with the L- and D-lactate dehydrogenase genes of Lactobacillus plantarum. The conserved residues in the catalytic activity and substrate binding of both LDHs were identified in both enzymes.

In the user-network interface for the parcticing ISDN, an effective phase aligned time compression multiplexing transmission system is designed and analyzed in the 2 wire passive BUS. In TCM, tha average SNR due to crosstalk from adjacent channelis 9.72(dB), and in regarding the phase aligned process, frames are designed to have maximum propagation time of 6(us) so that the connection distance is extended by 0.8(Km). Therefore, the proposed transmission system is suitable for the connection between end-subscriber and network.

A method for the inelastic response analysis of Planar frame based on Direct Method is presented. Two elements ( inelastic truss and inelastic beam ) are developed. The accuracy and reliability of the preposed method is verified by comparing the results of example analysis with BRAIN-2D developed by Powell.

Concentrically braced frames are limited in their ability to absorb energy during an earthquake However by placing the bracing members eccentric to the beam column joints, an energy absorbing link unit is produced. The energy is absorbed by the link and / or columns deforming inelastically. Three models of a multistorey structure were analyzed using DRAIN-2D computer program .Three link lengths were used in the analyses, 7, 11 and 15 inches. The yield patterns are produced. However it is interesting to note the relative valuses of force and moment obtained.

This paper describes a method of performance enhancement using Flatness Mesure(FM) for the Gaussian Mixture Model(GMM) face recognition systems. Using this measure we discard the frames having low information before training and test. As the result, the performance increases about 9％ in the lower mixtures and calculation burden is decreased. As well, the recognition error rate is decreased under the illumination change surroundings. We use the 2D DCT coefficients lot face feature vectors and experiments are carried out on the Olivetti Research Laboratory (ORL) face database.

A GA(Genetic Algorithm) based 3D-PTV technique has been developed. The measurement system consists of three CCD cameras, Ar-ion laser, an image grabber and a host computer. The fundamental of the developed technique was based on that one-to-one correspondence is found between two tracer particles selected at two different image frames taking advantage of combinatorial optimization of the genetic algorithm. The fitness function controlling reproductive success in the genetic algorithm was expressed by a kind of continuum theory on the sparsely distributed particles in space. In order to verify the capability of the constructed measurement system, a performance test was made using the LES data set of an impinging jet. The developed 3D-PTV system was applied to the measurement of flow characteristics of the wake of a circular cylinder.

A magnet assembly is a critical element of a nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR) based sensor. Magnetic flux density and homogeneity are essential to its optimum performance. Geometry and magnet material properties determine the magnetic flux density and homogeneity of the assembly. This study was carried out to develop the design for a magnet assembly. A 2-D finite element model for the magnetic assembly was developed using ANSYS and evaluated the effects of adding shimming frames and steel bars in the corners of the rectangular steel cover which surrounded the magnet. The assembly was manufactured and evaluated. According to the ANSYS model, modified pole frames increased magnetic flux density by 8.3% and increased homogeneity by 83%. Addition of steel bars in the corners increased the magnetic flux density by 1%, and improved homogeneity up to three times. The difference between simulated and measured magnetic flux densities at the center point of the air gap was within 2.4%.

After the large destruction of Lisbon due to the 1755 earthquake, the city had to be almost completely rebuilt. In this context, an innovative structural solution was implemented in new buildings, comprising internal timber framed walls which, together with the floors timber elements, constituted a 3-D framing system, known as "cage", providing resistance and deformation capacity for seismic loading. The internal timber framed masonry walls, in elevated floors, are constituted by a timber frame with vertical and horizontal elements, braced with diagonal elements, known as Saint Andrew's crosses, with masonry infill. This paper describes an experimental campaign to assess the in-plane cyclic behaviour of those so called "frontal" walls. A total series of 4 tests were conducted in 4 real size walls. Two models consist of the simple timber frames without masonry infill, and the other two specimens have identical timber frames but present masonry infill. Experimental characterization of the in-plane behaviour was carried out by static cyclic shear testing with controlled displacements. The loading protocol used was the CUREE for ordinary ground motions. The hysteretic behaviour main parameters of such walls subjected to cyclic loading were computed namely the initial stiffness, ductility and energy dissipation capacity.
