  • The effects of environmental factors on the extracellular release of organic carbon by Scenedesmus qudricauda were studied. The PER (percentage extracellular release) was greater at high temperature and at high concentration of nitrogen and phosphate. The PER variation according to the change of M/P ratio showed high values at each extreme N/P ratio. This result suggested that the limitation of nitrogen or phosphorous resulted in the accumulation of carbohydrates as photosynthetic products, and the products in high concentration were excreted through algal cell membrane.

  • In this paper a new generating procedure of a random chord is presented. This problem has its roots in the Bertrand's paradox. A study of the limit behaviour of its maximum length and the rate of convergence is conducted. In addition, moments of record values of random chord length are obtained for this case, as well as other cases of solutions of Bertrand's paradox.

  • 투자자들은 기업가치를 평가하기 위하여 재무비율을 활용하는데 특히 PER과 PBR은 적정 기업가치를 판단하는데 중요한 역할을 하는 대표적인 수치로 알려져 있다. 금융자료는 꼬리가 매우 두터운 형태의 분포를 따르는 경우가 많은데, PER과 PBR은 첨도가 매우 높으며 해당 재무비율의 극단치들은 기업의 다양한 이해관계자들의 의사결정 시 중요한 역할을 한다. 본 논문에서는 통계학의 극단치이론에서 주로 활용되는 GPD와 최근 새롭게 제안된 분포인 exGPD를 도입하고, 두 분포 간의 성능을 비교하기 위해 시뮬레이션을 수행하여 적합도를 살펴본 후 우측 꼬리에 속하는 90, 95, 99% 퍼센타일 값을 추정하여 실제 값과 비교한다. 다음으로 국내 증권시장에 상장된 정보기술군(IT) 기업들의 PER, PBR 자료에 근거하여 실증분석을 수행한다. 분석 결과 특히 PBR에서 exGPD가 GPD에 비해 자료의 우측 꼬리 영역을 보다 효과적으로 설명함을 확인하였다. 따라서, 재무비율에 기반한 기업가치평가 또는 위험관리 시 극단치의 특성을 효과적으로 반영할 수 있는 exGPD와 같은 분포를 활용한다면 꼬리 영역에 담긴 정보를 보다 정확하게 파악할 수 있다. 이는 기업 내부 위험관리자의 효과적인 지식경영을 돕고, 투자자를 비롯하여 다양한 외부 이해관계자들에게 유용한 지식을 제공할 수 있다.

  • GEV분포는 세계 여러 나라에서 홍수와 극한강우 등의 빈도분포로 널리 활용되고 있다. L-모멘트법은 GEV분포의 매개변수 추정을 위해 일반적으로 사용되고 있는 추정법이다. 본 연구에서는 Monte Carlo 실험을 이용하여 GEV분포를 따르는 서로 다른 두 지점의 자료의 교차상관계수를 이용하여 L-모멘트 추정값인 L-변동계수와 L-왜도계수들 간의 교차상관계수를 Simple Power 함수를 이용하여 유도하였다. 실험과정에서 생성된 비현실적이며 실험결과에 큰 영향을 미치는 음수값들을 배재한 GEV+분포를 이용하였다. 결과로, Simple Power 함수가 두지점간 자료의 교차상관과 L-모멘트 추정값들간의 교차상관 계수의 관계를 잘 모사하고 있음을 확인하였다. 다양한 GEV 분포의 매개변수 조합에 대한 Simple Power 함수의 매개변수 추정값과 정확성은 표로 제시하였다. 또한 위 연구결과를 활용할 수 있는 Generalised Least Square(GLS) 지역회귀 기법에 대해 설명하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서 도출된 관계식은 향후 GLS 회귀식을 이용한 GEV 분포의 지역 매개변수를 추정하는데 있어 L-모멘트 추정값들간의 정확한 교차상관관계를 제시할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

  • This study analyzes the characteristics of preference ratings by dividing estimated values into four groups according to rank correlation coefficient after obtaining preference estimated value to user's ratings by using collaborative filtering algorithm. It is known that the value of standard error of skewness and standard error of kurtosis lower in the group of higher rank correlation coefficient This explains that the preference of higher rank correlation coefficient has lower extreme values and the differences of preference rating values. In addition, top n recommendation lists are made after obtaining rank fitting by using the result ranks of prediction value and the ranks of real rated values, and this top n is applied to the four groups. The value of top n recommendation is calculated higher in the group of higher rank correlation coefficient, and the recommendation accuracy in the group of higher rank correlation coefficient is higher than that in the group of lower rank correlation coefficient Thus, when using standard error of skewness and standard error of kurtosis in recommender system, rank correlation coefficient can be higher, and so the accuracy of recommendation prediction can be increased.

  • We have screened 766 strains of fungi from the BIOTEC Culture Collection (BCC) for xylanases working in extreme pH and/or high temperature conditions, the so-called extreme xylanases. From a total number of 32 strains producing extreme xylanases, the strain BCC7928, identified by using the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequence of rRNA to be a Marasmius sp., was chosen for further characterization because of its high xylanolytic activity at temperature as high as $90^{\circ}C$. The crude enzyme possessed high thermostability and pH stability. Purification of this xylanase was carried out using an anion exchanger followed by hydrophobic interaction chromatography, yielding the enzyme with >90% homogeneity. The molecular mass of the enzyme was approximately 40 kDa. The purified enzyme retained broad working pH range of 4-8 and optimal temperature of $90^{\circ}C$. When using xylan from birchwood as substrate, it exhibits $K_m$ and $V_{max}$ values of $2.6{\pm}0.6\;mg/ml$ and $428{\pm}26\;U/mg$, respectively. The enzyme rapidly hydrolysed xylans from birchwood, beechwood, and exhibited lower activity on xylan from wheatbran, or celluloses from carboxymethylcellulose and Avicel. The purified enzyme was highly stable at temperature ranges from 50 to $70^{\circ}C$. It retained 84% of its maximal activity after incubation in standard buffer containing 1% xylan substrate at $70^{\circ}C$ for 3 h. This thermostable xylanase should therefore be useful for several industrial applications, such as agricultural, food and biofuel.

  • The effects of CH2F2 and N2 gas flow rates on the etch selectivity of silicon nitride (Si3N4) layers to extreme ultra-violet (EUV) resist and the variation of the line edge roughness (LER) of the EUV resist and Si3N4 pattern were investigated during etching of a Si3N4/EUV resist structure in dual-frequency superimposed CH2F2/N2/Ar capacitive coupled plasmas (DFS-CCP). The flow rates of CH2F2 and N2 gases played a critical role in determining the process window for ultra-high etch selectivity of Si3N4/EUV resist due to disproportionate changes in the degree of polymerization on the Si3N4 and EUV resist surfaces. Increasing the CH2F2 flow rate resulted in a smaller steady state CHxFy thickness on the Si3N4 and, in turn, enhanced the Si3N4 etch rate due to enhanced SiF4 formation, while a CHxFy layer was deposited on the EUV resist surface protecting the resist under certain N2 flow conditions. The LER values of the etched resist tended to increase at higher CH2F2 flow rates compared to the lower CH2F2 flow rates that resulted from the increased degree of polymerization.

  • Drought is a recurrent natural hazard in Bangladesh. It has significant impacts on agriculture, environment, and society. Well-timed information on the onset, extent, intensity, duration, and impacts of drought can mitigate the potential drought-related losses. Thus, drought characteristics need to be explained in terms of frequency, severity, and duration. This paper aims to characterize the spatial and temporal pattern of meteorological drought using EDI and illustrated drought severity over Bangladesh. Twenty-seven (27) station-based daily rainfall data for the study period of 1981-2015 were used to calculate the EDI values over Bangladesh. The evaluation of EDI is conducted for 4 sub-regions over the country to confirm the historical drought record-developed at the regional scale. The finding shows that on average, the frequency of severe to extreme drought is approximately 0.7 events per year. As a result of the regional analysis, most of the recorded historical drought events were successfully detected during the study period. Additionally, the seasonal analysis showed that the extreme droughts were frequently hit in northwestern, middle portion of the eastern and small portion of central parts of Bangladesh during the Kharif(wet) and Rabi(dry) seasons. The severe drought was affected recurrently in the central and northern regions of the country during all cropping seasons. The study also points out that the northern, south-western and central regions in Bangladesh are comparatively vulnerable to both extreme and severe drought event. The study showed that EDI would be a useful tool to identify the drought-prone area and time and potentially applicable to the climate change-induced drought evolution monitoring at regional to the national level in Bangladesh. The outcome of the present study can be used in taking anticipatory strategies to mitigate the drought damages on agricultural production as well as human sufferings in drought-prone areas of Bangladesh.

  • In order to examine the effects of different wind deflectors on the wind load distribution characteristics of extra-large cooling towers, a comparative study of the distribution characteristics of wind pressures on the surface of three large cooling towers with typical wind deflectors and one tower without wind deflector was conducted using wind tunnel tests. These characteristics include aerodynamic parameters such as mean wind pressures, fluctuating wind pressures, peak factors, correlation coefficients, extreme wind pressures, drag coefficients and vorticity distribution. Then distribution regularities of different wind deflectors on global and local wind pressure of extra-large cooling towers was extracted, and finally the fitting formula of extreme wind pressure of the cooling towers with different wind deflectors was provided. The results showed that the large eddy simulation (LES) method used in this article could be used to accurately simulate wind loads of such extra-large cooling towers. The three typical wind deflectors could effectively reduce the average wind pressure of the negative pressure extreme regions in the central part of the tower, and were also effective in reducing the root of the variance of the fluctuating wind pressure in the upper-middle part of the windward side of the tower, with the curved air deflector showing particularly. All the different wind deflectors effectively reduced the wind pressure extremes of the middle and lower regions of the windward side of the tower and of the negative pressure extremes region, with the best effect occurring in the curved wind deflector. After the wind deflectors were installed the drag coefficient values of each layer of the middle and lower parts of the tower were significantly higher than that without wind deflector, but the effect on the drag coefficients of layers above the throat was weak. The peak factors for the windward side, the side and leeward side of the extra-large cooling towers with different wind deflectors were set as 3.29, 3.41 and 3.50, respectively.
