Nowdays, fluorescent rhodamine chemosensors have attracted a worldwide interest due to its ability to selectively detect heavy and transition metal cations. Due to the importance in environmental and biological toxic effects, the developments of fluorescent chemosensors have been received considerable attention in recent. Especially, a rhodamine-based chemosensor probes have been proved to be useful by exhibiting the efficient "off-on" fluorescence switching toward selected metal cations. This fluorophore can undergo the transformation from non-fluorescent and colorless spirolactam derivative to fluorescent ring-open form. In this study, a new fluorescent chemosensor was synthesized using rhodamine B through two-step procedures, and its selectivity and related optical property were characterized. Selectivity and sensitivity was found toward $Cu^{2+}$ guest molecules and then related optical properties of rhodamine B based fluorescent chemosensor compound were characterized using discussed. In addition, computational calculation was used to determine the HOMO/LUMO values.

Estimation efficiencies according to different sea trial are investigated in connection with sensitivity analysis, and new trial method is proposed which can improve the estimation efficiency of hydrodynamic derivatives. MMG Equation with Kijima's formula is used for simulation. Extended Kalman Filter is chosen for estimation technique and hydrodynamic derivatives of interest is limited to 12 of those in sway and yaw equations. Esso Osaka is selected for the test ship. Sensitivity analysis and estimation results based on conventional trials show that a more sensitive derivative gives more efficient estimation result. Sensitivities of nonlinear derivatives become pronounced in the trial where steady condition lasts longer such as turning test, while sensitivities of linear derivatives gas a larger values in the trial where unsteady condition lasts longer such as 10deg-10deg zigzag test. Consequently, in new method , named S-type trial, steady and unsteady condition are combined appropriately to increase sensitivities. Linear derivatives are estimated better in S-type trial and the estimation of nonlinear derivatives is improved to extent.

We report the theory of thin-sample Z -scan for materials, viz. diffusion-dominated photorefractives, having a nonlinearly induced phase that may be proportional to the spatial derivative of the intensity profile. The on-axis far-field intensity is approximately an even function of the scan distance on different positive and negative values for phase shift $\Delta$$\Phi$$_{o}$. In case of positive phase shift, the Z -scan graph shows a minimum and two maxima, while for the negative value, only one minimum is observed. The fact is that far-field beam profiles display beam distortion and shift of the peak as compared with Kerr-type or photovoltaic nonlinearities.s.

The main motivation of this research is to develop an intelligent control strategy for Activated Sludge Process(ASP). ASP is a complex and nonlinear dynamic system because of the characteristic of a wastewater, the change of an influent flow rate, weather conditions, and etc. The mathematical model of ASP also includes uncertainties which are ignored or not considered by process engineer or controller designer. The ASP is generally controlled by a PID controller that consists of fixed proportional, integral, and derivative gain values. The PID gains can be adjusted by the expert in the ASP. The ASP model based on Matlab$^{(R)}$5.3/Simulink$^{(R)}$3.0 is developed in this paper. Various control methods are applied to the ASP model and the control results are disscussed. Three control methods are designed and tested: conventional PID controller, fuzzy logic control approach to modify setpoints, and fuzzy-PID control method.

The aim of this paper is to investigate the differentials of the hypercomplex valued functions in Clifford analysis. Like as the differentials defined by the naïve approach in one complex variable analysis, we define the differentials of functions with values in ternary number functions by same ways. And we survey the properties of each differential with respect to a non-commutativity of the skew field.

We have synthesized various types of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-ibuprofen conjugates by the nucleophilic substitution of bromo-terminated PEG with ibuprofen-Cs salt; PN (Pluronic) was also used in place of PEG. All the bromo-terminated PEGs and PN were obtained in high yield. Conversions of the terminal hydroxyl groups to bromo-termini were quantitative, as were the drug conjugation processes. The Ι$_1$/Ι$_3$values obtained from solutions of the ibuprofen-conjugated prodrugs are summarized in relation to those of ibuprofen in water and in aqueous solutions of the original PEG, PN, and several ordinary surfactants. We believe that the fully hydrophilic PEG is completely hydrated and forms no hydrophobic pocket by segment aggregation. These results indicate that the probe environment is significantly hydrophobic, particularly in the solution of prodrug PN, for which the ratio is similar to that obtained from typical micelles of surfactants. The results suggest, therefore, that the present synthetic method is very useful for preparing PEG-based prodrugs from pharmaceuticals having carboxyl functionalities.

A coumestan derivative, psoralidin (1) was found to be a cytotoxic principle of the seeds of Psoralea corylifolia L (Leguminosae) with the IC_{50}$ values of 0.3 and 0.4 ug/ml against the HT-29 (colon) and MCF-7 (breast) human cancer cell lines, respectively. A coumarin, angelicin (2) was also isolated as a marginally cytotoxic agent along with an inactive compound, psoralene (3) from the plant. The isolates 1-3 were not active against the A54l(lung) and HepG2 (liver hepatoma) cancer cell lines.

2-Arylchromones, also known as flavones, are among the most ubiquitous classes of natural products occurring in the plant kingdom. On the other hand, 2-styrylchromones are relatively scarce in nature and only a few compounds has been isolated from the blue-green algae species. Therefore, new 2-arylethenylchromone derivatives ( 4a∼n, 5a∼f) were synthesized by the aldol condensation of 2-methylchromone ( 3) with several aromatic aldehydes in order to evaluate their cytotoxicities using a MTT assay on three tumor cells. 2-Arylethenylchromone derivative 4a showed the significant cytotoxic activities on KB, HL-60 and P-388 cell lines with $IC_{50}$/ values of 25.2, 63.59 and 49.51 $\mu$M, respectively, indicating that 2-arylethenylchromone skeleton has a potential anti-tumor application.

In order to predict the accumulated damages by cyclic freeze-thaw, a regression analysis by the Response Surface Method (RSM) is used. RSM has merits when the other probabilistic simulation techniques can not guarantee the convergence of probability of occurrence or when the others can not differentiate the derivative terms of limit state functions, which are composed of random design variables in the model of complex system or the system having higher reliability. For composing limit state function, the important parameters for cyclic freeze-thaw-deterioration of concrete structures, such as water to cement ratio, entrained air pores, and the number of cycles of freezing and thawing, are used as input parameters of RSM. The predicted results of relative dynamic modulus and residual strains after 300 cycles of freeze-thaw for specimens show very good agreements with the experimental results. The RSM result can be used to predict the probability of occurrence for designer specified critical values. Therefore, it is possible to evaluate the life cycle management of concrete structures considering the accumulated damages by the cyclic freeze-thaw by the use of proposed prediction method.

In this paper, we deal with the problem of uniqueness of meromorphic functions that share two small functions with their derivatives, and obtain the following result which improves a result of Yao and Li: Let f(z) be a nonconstant meromorphic function, k > 5 be an integer. If f(z) and g(z) = $a_1(z)f(z)+a_2(z)f^{(k)}(z)$ share the value 0 CM, and share b(z) IM, $\overline{N}_E(r,f=0=F^{(k)})=S(r)$, f${\equiv}$g, where $a_1(z)$, $a_2(z)$ and b(z) are small functions of f(z).
