The administration of soluble glass bolus (SGB) with cobalt (Co), selenium (Se) and copper (Cu), among 50 upgraded does in the farm of Central Luzon State University, Philippines, was effective in improving the mineral status of the animals. After one year, blood Se and plasma Cu had been significantly increased; subsequently plasma molybdenum (Mo) level had been reduced, but other macro-minerals were not affected. Soluble glass bolus supplementation did not affect plasma calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), and sodium (Na), although the treated does had higher plasma phosphorus (P), potassium (K), and zinc (Zn) in some parts of the year. Hematocrit count of the animals was also improved reaching 32% level after 9 months; although it was still 6% below the lower limit of a normal range of 38 to 45%. The desired improvement in Se, Cu and Mo was not able to influence live weight among the animals. After one year, body weight was not significantly different from the control group of animals. Nevertheless, the study showed the effectiveness of SGB in improving Cu and Se levels, and subsequently reducing the plasma Mo levels of grazing goats in a typical Philippine farm.

Three components contribute to the acoustic field propagating in a wedge or over a ridge : a direct path arrival, an image component due to reflection from the boundaries and a component diffracted by the apex. All three contributions are included in a new, exact solution of the Helmholtz equation for the three-dimensional time harmonic field from a point source in a wedge(or over a ridge) formed by two intersecting, pressure-release plane boundaries. The solution is obtained by applying three integral transforms, and consists of and infinite sum of uncoupled normal nodes. The mode coefficients are given by a finite integral involving a Gegenbauer polynomial in the integrand, which may be computed relatively efficiently. Results of the theory for propagation over a 90 degree ridge is discussed.

In this paper, we propose a motion estimation algorithm for the discontinuity blocks. The algorithm uses sub-SAD value (i.e. the sum of absolute difference for a quarter of a block) to identify the discontinuity region, and produces additional motion vectors for these sub-blocks if necessary. We show with experimental results that, in comparison with some conventional motion estimation algorithms, the proposed algorithm achieves quality enhancement for the sequences with discontinuity blocks, and also shows the same computational quantity as to normal algorithms for sequences with less discontinuity.

The Curie point annealing effects on electrophysical phenomena at the magnetized strontium ferrite(SrO$\cdot$ 6$Fe_{2}O_{3}$) ceramics electrode/10$^{-3}$M KC1 aqueous electrolyte interfaces have been studied using cyclic voltammetric, normal pulse voltammetric, chronocoulometric, and electrochemical impedance techiques. After the Curie point annealing the magnetic flux densities of the speciment was decreased from 900-1100 gauss to 1-2 gauss, i.e. demagnetized. The real component of interfacial impedance was decreased from 7280-7320 ohm to 790-830 ohm. The adsorption and the charge on the electrical double layer was increased from 0 $\mu$C to -58 $\mu$C. The Curie point annealing and the related electrical double layer effect can influence not only the electrophysical properties of the strontium ferrite ceramics electrode itself but also the electrochemical phenomena at the electrode interface. This experimental results suggest that the Curie point annealing and the related electrical double layer effect can be applied to electrochemical magnetic sensors.

The TVM 430 system manufactured by Ansaldo STS in France is currently used in ground signalling system for Kyungbu HSR. It transmits the speed information to the on-board signalling system in the form of continuous signal via the track, and the rolling stock in Kyungbu HSR runs with 300km/h max. operating speed by using the corresponding information. Looking from the recent international trends in HSR, reducing the travelling time and increasing of the line capacity is promoting via the improvement of train speed. In case of TGV Est, they are realizing the normal operation with 320km/h max. operating speed by using TVM SEI signalling system, which is similar to TVM 430. Furthermore, in case Honam HSL, which is under construction, is looking over faster speed than the limited one of Kyungbu HSR(i.e. over 300km/h). In this paper, it is assumed that the existing TVM 430 ground signalling system is used and train speed is improved, therefore the number of block section to be increased depending on the increase of train speed and the standard speed to be used in this case is drawn via the simulation of the train model and described the method accordingly.

Rupture or contrast extravasation of urinary bladder after voiding cystourethrography(VCUG) was a very rare complication which occurred in neurogenic or unused bladder. Only one case of bladder extravasation was reported in a girl with normal bladder function. Case: A 18 month-old boy presented with recurrent E. Coli urinary tract infection and was evaluated with isotope VCUG, which was failed to catheter insertion. Two days later, isotope VCUG was repeated with difficult catheter insertion. Two hours after isotope VCUG, gross hematuria and anuria developed, and abdominal distension was followed. Bladder rupture was diagnosed by abdominal sonography and computerized tomography. He was treated with simple closure and suprapubic catheter drainage.

A multimedia Version of ${\ulcorner}Lee-Kim test of Korean Articulation{\lrcorner}$ "Lee-Kim Test of Korean Articulation" consisting of picture test, Sentence test, user's manual and notation, analysis sheets was published in 1990 to serve as a standard tool for testing and analysing the articulation errors of normal and abnormal speakers. It has been found, however that, the picture and sentences test using the printed version of Lee-Kim test of Korean Articulation revealed several limitations, in i, e, a) inefficiency in inducing desirable response from the informants b) lack of concentration and interest on the part of informants c) no consistent way of providing the informant with a clue in case the informant is unfamiliar with the word represented by the picture or the sentence. d) no reliable means for the speech-language pathologist to analyze and evaluate the informant's speech in relation to the standard pronunciation A multimedia version of Lee-Kim Korean articulation Test which features picture and word as well as recorded voice has been developed with a view to eliminating the limitation mentioned above and facilitating the articulation test-with ease and accuracy.

PURPOSES: This study aims to develop a rational procedure for estimating the pavement roughness index considering vehicle wandering. METHODS : The location analysis of the passing vehicle in the lane was performed by approximately 1.2 million vehicles for verification of the wandering distribution. According to verification result, the distribution follows the normal distribution pattern. The probability density function was estimated using each lane's wandering distribution model. Then the procedure for applying a weighted value into the lane profile was conducted using this function. RESULTS : The modified index, MRIw, with consideration towards applying the wandering weighted value application was computed then compared with MRI. It was found that the Coefficient of Variation for distribution of lateral roughness index in the lane was high in the case of a large difference between each index (i.e., MRIw and MRI) observed. CONCLUSIONS : This result confirms that the new procedure with consideration of the weight factor can successfully improve the lane representative characteristics of the roughness index.

In recent years, many researcher have been interested in the stability of a thin beam. Among them, Pai and Nayfeh[1] had investigated the nonplanar motion of the cantilever beam under lateral base excitation and chaotic motion, but this study is associated with internal resonance, i.e. one to one resonance. Also Cusumano[2] had made an experiment on a thin beam, called Elastica, under bending loads. In this experiment, he had shown that there exists out-of-plane motion, involving the bending and the torsional mode. Pak et al.[3] verified the validity of Cusumano's experimental works theoretically and defined the existence of Non-Local Mode(NLM), which is came out due to the instability of torsional mode and the corresponding aspect of motions by using the Normal Modes. Lee[4] studied on a thin beam under bending loads and investigated the routes to chaos by using forcing amplitude as a control parameter. In this paper, we are interested in the motion of a thin beam under torsional loads. Here the form of force based on the natural forcing function is used. Consequently, it is found that small torsional loads result in instability and in case that the forcing amplitude is increasing gradually, the motion appears in the form of dynamic double potential well, finally leads to complex motion. This phenomenon is investigated through the poincare map and time response. We also check that Harmonic Balance Method(H.B.M.) is a suitable tool to calculate the bifurcated modes.

No.2 PCM (Pickling and tandem cold rolling mill) at Pohang works was revamped in 2003. The purpose of this project is to produce carbon and stainless steel using conventional carbon production process, rolling and annealing. This paper introduces the applied facilities and technologies of PCM which are used in production of carbon and stainless steel. To realize the main purpose of this project, POSCO have developed laser weld technology in normal carbon and special steel (stainless, high carbon and high silicon). And this report describes the method which is developed to get down the surface defect of stainless 400 series. After revamping, No.2 PCM can have competitive power in this field and can supply the special steel using carbon rolling process.
