In this paper, maxwell 3D finite element analysis program (Ansoft) was used to obtain electromagnetic properties associated with the coil and nearby structures. The electromagnetic emitting properties were presented by 3D simulation software operated at 250 kHz and some specific conditions. The electromagnetic field in the ferrite core was shown to be high and symmetric. An LS-100 luminance meter and a Darsa-2000 spectrum analyzer were used in the experiment. According to data on the lamp tested using high magnetic field ferrite, the optical and thermal wave fields were shown to be high around the ring-shaped electrodeless fluorescent lamp. The optical or light field was high at the center of the bulb rather than around the ferrite core. The light conditions of the bulb were assumed to be complex, depending on the condition of the filler gas, the volume of the bulb, and the frequency of the inverter. Our results have shown coupling between the gas plasma and the field of the light emitted to be nonlinear.

To characterize the relationship between the stage of hepatic fibrosis and bioimpedance, several electric parameters were estimated in rats with $CCl_4$-induced liver fibrosis. Thirty three Sprague-Dawley rats were intraperitoneally injected with a $CCl_4$-mineral oil mixture (1:1, 0.2 mL/100 g) twice a week for 8 weeks. The resistance(R), reactance(X), impedance(Z), and dissipation factor(D) between 1 kHz and 100 kHz were then evaluated in the livers of the rats under pentobarbital anesthesia using an HP4294A Impedance Analyzer. The rats were killed 2, 4, 6, and 8 weeks later, and their livers were classified in accordance with Ishak's scoring system. R, X, and Z changed in accordance with the progression of hepatic fibrosis and the changes were greater at lower frequencies than at higher frequencies. In comparison, the D spectrum was biphasic; D increased initially then decreased with increasing frequency. All of the parameters(R, X, Z, and D) changed in accordance with the stage of fibrosis in the livers, but D changed specifically with the progression of fibrosis. These results indicate that hepatic fibrosis may be evaluated by determining the changes in D.

Surface roughness of deposited or etched film strongly depends on ion bombardment. Relationships between ion bombardment variables and surface roughness are too complicated to model analytically. To overcome this, an empirical neural network model was constructed and applied to a deposition process of silicon nitride (SiN) films. The films were deposited by using a pulsed plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition system in $SiH_4$-$NH_4$ plasma. Radio frequency source power and duty ratio were varied in the range of 200-800 W and 40-100%. A total of 20 experiments were conducted. A non-invasive ion energy analyzer was used to collect ion energy distribution. The diagnostic variables examined include high (or) low ion energy and high (or low) ion energy flux. Mean surface roughness was measured by using atomic force microscopy. A neural network model relating the diagnostic variables to the surface roughness was constructed and its prediction performance was optimized by using a genetic algorithm. The optimized model yielded an improved performance of about 58% over statistical regression model. The model revealed very interesting features useful for optimization of surface roughness. This includes a reduction in surface roughness either by an increase in ion energy flux at lower ion energy or by an increase in higher ion energy at lower ion energy flux.

The function of SCR system in refuse incineration plant is to reduce the harmful combustion gases especially NOx which make serious environmental pollution. The SCR system normally have a NOx measurement system such as inlet NOx analyzer and outlet T.M.S.(Tele Monitoring System) to control the outlet NOx in stack. The NOx measurement system is very important, however there are frequently happened sensing problems and it need maintenance periodically. In this paper, we propose an estimation method of inlet NOx of SCR system by using general structured observer. The inlet NOx is considered as an input disturbance and it is modelled by applying FFT method in frequency domains. Through the design of general structured observer, the outlet NOx can be estimated by using observation error between real outlet NOx and estimated outlet NOx. The effectiveness of the proposed method is shown by comparing to a measured inlet NOx data.

The maximum feedrate generated from the hardware DDA is closely related to its calculation efficiency. The smaller interpolation span results in the lower calculation efficiency. This paper presents the method to improve the calculation efficiency for the smaller interpolation span. For the linear interpolation the higher calculation efficiency can be achieved by putting biggest value that the interpolation DDA can hold. for the circular interpolation, however, the scheme used for linear interpolation does not work since arbitrary change of value in the interpolation DDA changes the radius of the circle. The bit length of the hardware DDA is adjusted instead of adjusting the value in DDA, which results in the every same effect on calculation efficiency for the circular interpolation. The hardware circuit and supporting software are designed, and tested by two axis step motor driven milling machine. The experimental results show that the proposed method drastically increases the maximum feedrate even for the smaller interpolation span.

Automatic hematology analyzers provide the leukocyte differential count and the useful flags of the various hematological parameters. We compared LH 750 (Beckman Coulter Co., Miami, FL, USA) with manual method on differential leukocyte counts and evaluated the usefulness of the suspect flags, provided by this instrument. The comparison of leukocyte differential counts between two methods showed good correlation coefficient (r), which were 0.95 (neutrophil), 0.92 (lymphocyte), 0.82 (monocyte) and 0.95 (eosinophil). The frequency of the total flags displayed on LH 750 were 15.5%, which included immature granulocyte/left shift 63.5%, nucleated RBC 14.6%, platelet clumps 13.1%, variant lymphocyte 50% and blast 16.6%. This instrument showed higher positive predictive value in the flags such as platelet clumps 68.8%, immature granulocyte/left shift 61.5%, nucleated RBC 27.3%, variant lymphocyte 50% and blast 16.7%. In this study, the leukocyte differential counts of LH 750 showed good correlation with manual method and the suspect flags also showed a good performance for applying the criteria of re-examination in the clinical laboratory.

We analyze public opinion via a sentiment analysis of tweets collected by using recent topic keywords extracted from newspaper articles. Newspaper articles collected within a certain period of time are clustered by using K-means algorithm and topic keywords for each cluster are extracted by using term frequency. A sentiment analyzer learned by a machine learning method can classify tweets according to their polarity values. We have an assumption that tweets collected by using these topic keywords deal with the same topics as the newspaper articles mentioned if the tweets and the newspapers are generated around the same time. and we tried to verify the validity of this assumption.

The conversion of solar energy into acoustic waves is experimentally studied. Measurements were made on the Sound Pressure Level(SPL), onset time and the temperature gradient across the stack, with the Cell Per Square Inch(CPSI) of stack changed. A pyrex resonance tube is used with a honey-comb structure ceramic stack along with Ni-Cr and Cu wires. An AL1 acoustical analyzer was used to measure the SPL and frequency of acoustic waves whereas K-type thermocouples were hired to estimate temperature gradients. As a result, when the supply electric power was 25W, maximum SPLs of 104.1 dB, 109.4 dB and 112.8 dB were detected for the stacks of 200, 300 and 400 CPSI and their respective stack positions of 70mm, 60mm and 50mm from the closed end.

The electromagnetic interference is prevented by the high magnetic loss of the ferrite. The absorbing property of electromagnetic wave could be improved by the ferrite that has a finer and more uniform microstructure. The thermal decomposition of organic acid salt provided the uniform composition and fine powder. The absorbing properties of electromagnetic wave were evaluated by the relative complex permeability, permittivity, and the attenuation which is calculated from the results of network analyzer. The permeability and permittivity were increased with increase of the density and with decrease of the grain size. The matching thickness could be reduced with increasing sintered temperature. The attenuation of the Cu-Ni-Zn ferrite showed over 20dB when the matching thickness and the matching frequency range were 6.75mm and from 160MHz to 640MHz, respectively.
