Purpose : this study is to examine what are the effects of the Sintongchukeatang(SCT) on the ovariectomized rat model of postmenopausal osteoporosis. Methods : 12weeks Female Sprague-Dawley 30 rats of weighting 250-300g, were divided into three groups including the sham operation groups(10heads) and overiectomy groups(10heads). then we observed changes in the body weight serum metabolic products and femoral trabecular bone. Results : 1. The level of serum ALP activity in control group showed significant increase in comparison with sham, but that in SCT-treated was significantly decreased in comparison with control. 2. The level of serum GOT in control group showed no change in comparison with sham, but that in SCT-treated was significantly decreased in comparison with control. The level of serum GPT did not significant change among the three groups. 3. The level of serum estrogen in control group showed slightly decreased in comparison with sham, but that in SCT-treated showed no change in comparison with control. 4. Trabecular bone area as well as trabecular thickness in control group showed significant decrease in comparison with sham. Those in SCT-treated showed significant increase in comparison with control. 5. Trabecular separation only in SCT-treated showed significant decrease in comparison with control. 6. Osteoclast number and oseoblast surface in control group showed significant increase in comparison with sham. Those in SCT-treated showed significant decrease in comparison with control. Conclusion : SCT has shown to be capable of preventing and curing osteoporosis caused by old-aged and postmenopause.

Inference on the present data will be more reliable when the data arising from previous similar studies are available. The data arising from previous studies are referred as historical data. The power prior is defined by the likelihood function based on the historical data to the power $a_0$, where $0\;{\le}\;a_0\;{\le}\;1$. The power prior is a useful informative prior for Bayesian inference such as model selection and model comparison. We utilize the historical data to perform multiple comparison in the one-way ANOVA model. We demonstrate our results with some simulated datasets under a simple order restriction between the treatments.

This study deals with a substantial problems with SEA modeling methods in shipboard noise predictions. As a first problems with respect to modeling, fineness of model that represents a real structure is numerically investigated by comparison among 3 models, Fine, Coarse and Simplified models. Comparison reveals that Fine model shows the lowest noise level among them since this model involve more energy transfer paths than the other models. Influence of in-plane wave is also examined by numerical comparison. It is clear that inclusion of in-plane wave affects the high frequency and the cabin far from a source.

Human Computer Interaction is rapidly growing in different aspects and areas. One of the areas that grab many scholars and researchers interest is usability. Usability is a main factor and critical pillar of products success and acceptance. In this paper, we deeply analyze the current usability models that measure the user performance during the interaction with products. Then, we fairly compare between each model to discover and present the strength and weakness of each model for supporting developer and business organization with guidelines during the development process of the products before launching the actual and final one. Decomposing comparison between each model is performed based on specific criteria. Comparison is tabulated, graphically depicted, and analytically decomposed.

A numerical analysis on engine coolant is made by the use of FVM based general purpose 3 dimensional Navier-Stokes solver, TURB-3D. Numerical solutions are verified by comparison with the experimental data of Lotus model. The results show a good qualitative as well as quantitative comparison. Coolant flow rate control is attempted through adjusting the cross section area of passage base on the results of an original coolant passage. It is concluded from the results that the flow rate control is possible as attempted, and thus can be used in the real engine design.

This paper describes the azimuth accuracy test of phase comparison direction finding method using F-16 fighter scale-down model. When the antennas are placed on the bottom of a fighter, reflection signals caused by an aircraft structure arises and an azimuth error occurs. In this research, the F-16 fighter scale-down model was made to 5:1, and five antennas were placed on the bottom of the model, then the radio waves of emitters were received by the antennas in the $0-360^{\circ}$ azimuth angles. The accuracy test was performed by numerically analyzing the phases of the radio waves received by the five antennas. The azimuth error of the phase comparison direction finding with scale-down model was measured to be less than $0.5^{\circ}$ when the signal noise ratio was larger then 0dB, and it could be very useful for the design of the phase comparison direction finding method of the fighter.

Aging is characterized by an age-dependent reduction in bone density. Pronounced bone loss by postmenopausal estrogen deficiency induces a bad effect on dynamic balance of bone metabolism. When the bone density is reduced to the level below the fracture threshold, the risk for fracture is greatly increased. The purpose of this study is to examine what are the effects of the Yuklinzu(YLZ: 毓麟珠) on the ovariectomized rat model of postmenopausal osteoporosis. The results of the experiment are as follows: Body weight in control group showed significant increase in comparison with sham, but that in YLZ-treated showed no change in comparison with control. The level of serum albumin in control group showed significant decrease in comparison with sham. That in YLZ-treated was slightly decreased in comparison with control. The level of serum ALP activity in control group showed significant increase in comparison with sham, but that in YLZ-treated was significantly decreased in comparison with control. The level of serum phosphorous in control group showed significant increase in comparison with sham, but that in YLZ-treated showed no change in comparison with control. The level of serum calcium in control group showed no change in comparison with sham, but that in YLZ-treated was significantly decreased in comparison with control. The level of serum GOT in control group showed no change in comparison with sham, but that in YLZ-treated was significantly decreased in comparison with control. The level of serum GPT did not significant change among the three groups.

The Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute has developed a performance assessment model implementing the A-KRS concept, which was constructed with the GoldSim. In the A-KRS concept, spent nuclear fuel produced from pressurized-water-reactor operations would be pyroprocessed to reduce waste volume and radioactivity. The wastes to be disposed of in a geologic repository are comprised of metal and ceramic waste forms. In this study, results of simulations conducted to establish credibility and build confidence for the A-KRS model are presented. Specifically, release rates and breakthrough times simulated using the A-KRS model were compared to corresponding results from the U.S. NRC SOAR model. In addition, the A-KRS model results were compared to published release rates from the SKB repository performance assessment. This comparison of the A-KRS model results to other independent performance assessments is expected to form part of a suite of model verification and validation activities to provide confidence that the A-KRS model has been implemented appropriately.

It is a very important and fundamental process to know accurately the intensity of the solar energy coming into the installed module considering the tilted angle. Europe and the US commonly use a program called PVsyst to convert the global horizontal irradiation to global irradiation on tilted plane. There are two types of models that PVsyst uses to convert to irradiation on tilted plane. In this paper, Perez model, which is a decomposition model and Perez model, which is a transposition model used in PVsyst, are applied based on global horizontal irradiation and global irradiation on tilted plane measured in a specific area. The comparison of the decomposition model shows the effect of the transpostion model on global irradiation on tilted plane conversion by comparing the ratio of the horizontal diffuse irradiation amount of the Watanabe model which are highly trusted in Asia and the Perez model. The comparison of transposition model confirm the error between the measured data and the calculated value which is applied Perez model to global horizontal irradiation decomposed by Perez model and Watanabe model. Based on the two comparisons, This paper propose a method to confirm the reliability of transposition model and reduce the error when PVsyst is used in Korea.
