  • Protein kinase C theta (PKC-${\theta}$) is a serine/threonine specific protein kinase. It is largely expressed in the T-cells and CD28 signaling. PKC-${\theta}$ phosphorylates diverse proteins that are involved in the various cellular signaling pathways. Activated PKC-${\theta}$ in turn activates other transcription factors that control the proliferation and differentiation of T- cells. PKC-${\theta}$ is considered to be an interesting therapeutic target due to its crucial role in the proliferation, differentiation and survival of T-cells. In the present study, we have performed ligand-based CoMFA study on a series of pyridylpyrazolopyridine derivatives as PKC-${\theta}$ inhibitors. An acceptable CoMFA model ($q^2$=0.544; ONC=4; $r^2$=0.876) was developed and validated by Bootsrapping and progressive sampling. The CoMFA contour map suggested the regions to increase the activity. Bulky substitutions in R2 position of the piperizine ring could increase the activity. Similarly positive, small substitution in the R1 position of the Pyridine ring could considerably increase the activity. Our work could assist in designing more potent PKC-${\theta}$ inhibitors of pyridylpyrazolopyridine derivatives.

  • In low to moderate seismic regions, there are limited earthquake ground motion data recorded from past earthquakes. In this regard, the Gyeongju earthquake (M=5.8)occurred on September 12, 2016 produces valuable information on ground motions. Ground motions were recorded at various recording stations located widely in Korean peninsula. Without actual recoded ground motions, it is impossible to make a ground motion prediction model. In this study, a point source model is constructed to accurately simulate ground motions recorded at different stations located on different soil conditions during the Gyeongju earthquake. Using the model, ground motions are generated at all grid locations of Korean peninsula. Each grid size has $0.1^{\circ}(latitude){\times}0.1^{\circ}(longitude)$. Then a contour hazard map is constructed using the peak ground acceleration of the simulated ground motions.

  • In this study, we have investigated potential energy of ${\beta}$-D-glucopyranose in vacuum and implicit water condition. By Comparing two conditions we find that how solvation energy influence ${\beta}$-D-glucopyranose structure. We use AMBER package program and GLYCAM_06 force field. Solvation model was used for the generalized Born model with Hawkins, Cramer, Truhlar has been proposed. We conclude that difference of contour map of two conditions is caused by solvation effect by reducing hydrogen bonding interaction.

  • DV(Discrete Variation)-X${\alpha}$ cluster calculation was employed to calculate the electronic states of ${\gamma}'- Fe_4N$ which was one of iron nitride phases synthesized from plasma ion nitriding to improve surface hardness and wear resistance. The result of calculated electron density of states for Fe was similar to the result of band calculation. The cluster used for calculation of electronic states of ${\gamma}'-Fe_4N$ was based on $Fe_{14}N$ cluster which comprises 15 atoms. Finally the electronic states of ${\gamma}'- Fe_4N$ such as net-charge, band order, energy level, electron wave-function, and contour map for electron density were derived by the calculation.

  • For expression of isogram in mobile GIS environments, the client needs to receive the value data with the topographical map from a server. At this point, a client can't get the entire raw data because of the mobile characteristics. The approach to get representative points and to make isogram by interpolation methods, has some problems. The approach requires huge computing overhead at the client and doesn't guarantee the correctness of the isogram. In this paper, a data structure and algorithm for efficient transmission of contour information to a client which is constructed from a elevation information at a server, arc proposed. A proposed methods are focused at minimizing the transmission data volume and time.

  • Recently, the research that analyze topography parameters that need in hydrology analysis using GIS techniques is achieved. DEM that is used in topography analysis can be constructed effectively using contour data of digital map. Therefore, DEM's applicability is increasing gradually in several fields. In this study, DEM of 20∼l00m grid size was applied PYONGCHANG river and JUBANG river basin to analyze what effect DEM grid size causes about slope and drainage watershed at topography parameter extraction. This study drew a regression equation about slope change by DEM grid size. As a result, according as DEM grid size increases, slope decreases, and basin area could know that is not change almost.

  • Correlation among color intensity, electron donating ability to $\alpha$, $\alpha$-diphenyl-$\beta$-dicrylhydrazy(DPPH) and cultivation conditions by Bacillus subtilis DC-2 were tested with response surface methodology. Both of pigment generation ability and DPPH were more affected by temperature than any other factor. The highest correlation was appeared between color intensity and DPPH as 0.8364 which is significant at 1% level. After fixing cultivation time which is not significant at 10% level to 84hrs as optical cultivation time, response surface methodology was conducted in regarding temperature and color intensity. As a result of overlapped contour map of color intensity and DPPH, when cultivation temperature was in the range of 38.9~41.1$^{\circ}C$ and pH was in the range of 8.34~9.12, optical density of color intensity was predicted higher than 0.374 at 390nm and DPPH was infered higher than 1.310 at 528nm. In the range of optical culture condition, cultivation temperature, pH and cultivation time was fixed to 4$0^{\circ}C$, 8.5 and 85hrs, respectively. In resulting, observation value of color intensity and DPPH was in the range of anticipation value as 0.386 at 390nm and 1.332 at 528nm respectively.

  • The MERRA reanalysis data provided online by NASA was applied to predict the monthly energy productions of Donghai Bridge Offshore wind farms in China. WindPRO and WindSim that are commercial software for wind farm design and energy prediction were used. For topography and roughness map, the contour line data from SRTM combined with roughness information were made and used. Predictions were made for 11 months from July, 2010 to May, 2011, and the results were compared with the actual electricity energy production presented in the CDM(Clean Development Mechanism)monitoring report of the wind farm. The results from the prediction programs were close to the actual electricity energy productions and the errors were within 4%.
