본 논문에서는 공간상의 한 점에 대한 연속시간 강우모델로 시간단위의 통계특성을 재현하는데 유용하다고 알려진 BLRPM(Bartlett-Lewis Rectangular Pulse Model)을 이용하여, 측우기 자료를 포함하는 서울지점의 일강우 자료를 분해하고 지속시간별로 집성하여 모의된 시단위 단기 강우의 정량적 장기변화 특성을 분석해 보았다. 모의자료의 전이확률과 발생빈도 분석결과, 측우기 관측계열(CWK)에 비해 근대 우량계 관측계열(MRG)의 무강우 지속기간은 길어지고 강우지속기간은 짧아졌음을 알 수 있다. 이는 과거에 비해 근래의 강우지속기간이 짧아졌음을 의미하고, 근래 강우량의 양적증가와 같이 고려해 보면 근래의 강우강도가 과거보다 매우 높아졌음을 증명해 준다. 1960년대 전후로 구분한 자료계열(BCC와 ACC)에 대하여 지속시간별 모의 강우량의 평균과 분산의 비(증감률)를 월별로 비교한 결과, 전반적으로 9월이 증가의 정도가 가장 컸고 8월도 비교적 큰 증가 경향을 보였다. 그러나 6월은 오히려 약간 감소한 경향을 나타냈다.

Endothelin has $ET_{A}$ type and $ET_{B}$ type receptors, and it has been thought that ET-1 proves vasoconstriction effect via $ET_{A}$ receptor and vasodilation via $ET_{B}$ receptor. Recently, it has been reported that $ET_{B}$ receptor is also related to the vaso-constriction. Bosentan is a $ET_{A+B}$ receptor antagonist, and proves it's effect on trauma and ischemia. We already announced that the level of Endothelin-1 increase in the brain and spinal cord of EAE-induced lewis rat and showed the origin of ET-1 is activated macrophages. Intracisternal injection of Bosentan, $ET_{A+B}$ receptor antagonist, (300nmol/body) was done for observing the role of endothelin-1 on the pathogenesis of EAE. Bosentan ameliorated the severity of clinical score of EAE and decreased the histologically observed inflammatory region. The blocking effect on the progression of EAE model suggests that Bosentan is a physiological antagonist in terms of development of the sign of multiple sclerosis.

To prove pseudo-homopolymerization(PHP) method indirectly for general system which includes more than one growing radicals per particle, Mayo-Lewis equation of bulk copolymer system was derived form probability equation about instantaneous copolymer composition of emulsion copolymer system during interval II. From Extended Smith-Ewart equation proposed by Ballard et al. in emulsion copolymerization, exact solution was obtained for 0-1 system (i.e., the system containing no more than one growing radical per particle). From the exact solution, average number of radicals per particle and instantaneous copolymer composition were predicted to reach the steady state which a few minutes. So the reliability of this approximation method could by proved directly for 0-1 system. Styrene-butadiene(St-Bu) and Styrene-methyl methacrylate (St-MMA) system were used for model calculations.

Propagation rates ($U_{edge}$) of various premixed, twin edge-flames were measured as a function of global strain rate ($\sigma$), mixture strength, and Lewis number (Le). Using a counterflow slot-jet burner with electrical heaters at each end, both advancing (positive $U_{edge}$) and retreating (negative $U_{edge}$) edge-flames can be studied as they propagate along the long dimension of the burner. Experimental results are presented for premixed methane/air twin flames in terms of the effects of $\sigma$ on $U_{edge}$. Both low-$\sigma$ and high-$\sigma$ extinction limits were discovered for all mixtures tested. As a result, the domain of edge-flame stability was obtained in terms of heat loss factor and normalized flame thickness, and comparison with the numerical result of other researchers was also made. For low ($CH_4/O_2/CO_2$) and high ($C_{3}H_{8}$/air) Lewis number cases, propagation rates clearly show a strong dependence on Le.

Dynamic behavior of diffusive-thermal instability in diluted $CH_4/O_2$ diffusion flames is numerically investigated by adopting detailed chemistry and transport. Counterflow diffusion flame is adopted as a model flamelet. Particular attention is focused on the pulsating-instability regime, which arises for Lewis numbers greater than unity, and the instability occurs at high strain rate near extinction condition in this flame configuration. Once a steady flame structure is obtained for a prescribed value of initial strain rate. transient solution of the flame is calculated after a finite amount of strain-rate perturbation is imposed Oil the steady flame. Transient evolution of the flame depends on the initial strain rate and the amount of perturbed strain rate. Basically, the dynamic behaviors can be classified into two types, namely non-oscillatory decaying solution and diverging solution leading to extinction. The peculiar oscillatory solution. which has been found in the previous study adopting one-step chemistry and constant Lewis numbers, is not observed in this study, which is attributed to both convective flow and preferential diffusion effects.

In this paper, we describe the behavior of two self-excitations in laminar attached free-jet flames under the influence of DC electric fields, one of buoyancy-driven and the other of diffusion-thermal instability, established from the horizontal and vertical injection. In the horizontal injection with removed buoyancy effect, oscillating flames with the frequency of 1.3 - 7.4 Hz were observed in a certain condition with Lewis number more than unity. On the other hand, it was appeared Lewis number induced self-excitation as well as buoyancy-driven self-excitation in the vertical upward injection with DC electric fields. This behavior had frequency range of 1.6 - 9.4 Hz and was exhibited to attribute the buoyancy effect. Finally, a well-defined division about two self-excitations having similar frequency range is briefly discussed.

Cationic polymerization of isobutyl vinyl ether using various metal halides was examined in toluene in the presence of an added base at $0^{\circ}C$. In conjunction with an appropriate weak base such as ethyl acetate or 1,4-dioxane, all metal halides but $FeBr_{3}\;and\;GaCl_{3}$ led to living cationic polymerization. The polymerization rates varied as follows: $FeBr_{3},\;GaCl_{3}\;>\;FeCl_{3}\;>\;SnCl_{4}\;>\;InCl_{3}\;>\;ZnCl_{2}\;>>\;AlCl_{3},\;HfCl_{4},\;ZrCl_{4}\;>\;EtAlCl_{2},\;BiCl_{3},\;TiCl4\;>>\;SiCl_{4}\;>\;GeCl_{4}$. This order partially corresponds to that of the equilibrium constant in the formation of a carbocation from a chloroalkane in the presence of a carbonyl compound. With extremely active Lewis acids, such as $FeBr_{3}\;and\;GaCl_{3}$, the use of a stronger base, THF, was required to achieve living polymerization.

The standard definition of an instantaneous temporal part cannot properly deal with cases involving time travel. This paper provides a new definition of an instantaneous temporal part by appealing to David Lewis's distinction between external time and personal time. The new definition avoids the problems because it does not allow more than one instantaneous temporal part of an object at each moment of its personal time. We argue that this new definition, combined with our new perdurantist semantic thesis, deals with cases of time travel successfully.

The rates of mass transfer with the alkaline hydrolysis of ethyl acetate and n-butyl acetate were measured by using a modified Lewis cell. The rates of mass transfer with chemical reaction were independent of the speed of agitation, and the reaction enhancement factors were independent of the ionic strength. The second order reaction rate constants of ethyl acetate and n-butyl acetate could be obtained from an approximate solution of a diffusion equation by film theory, and their values were $0.041m^3/kg\;mol{\cdot}s$ and $0.338m^3/kgmol{\cdot}s$, respectively.

Objective: To investigate the effects of endostar, a recombined humanized endostatin, plus cisplatin on the growth, lymphangiogenesis and lymphatic metastasis of the Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC) in mice. Methods: A tumor model were established in C57BL/6 mice by intravenious transplantation of LLC cells. Then the mice were randomized to receive administration with NS, endostar, cisplatin, or endostar plus cisplatin. After the mice were sacrificed, tumor multiplicity, tumor size and lymph node metastasis were assessed. Then the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor-c (VEGF-C) and podoplanin were determined by immunohistochemical staining. Results: Endostar plus cisplatin significantly suppressed tumor growth. lymphatic metastasis and prolonged survival time of the mice without obvious toxicity. The inhibition of lymphatic metastasis was associated with decreased microlymphatic vessel density (MLVD) and expression of VEGF-C. Conclusions: Endostar combined with cisplatin was more effective to suppress tumor growth and lymphatic metastasis than either agent alone. Thus this may provide a rational alternative for lung carcinoma treatment.
