KSTAR vacuum vessel has been boronized by carborane ($C_2B_{10}H_{12}$) to reduce various kinds of impurities including carbon and oxygen from the wall, since carborane is solid, non-toxic, non-explosive and is easily evaporated, while diborane ($B_2D_6$) is toxic and explosive. To find the best wall condition for the removal of contaminants before application to KSTAR, various amounts (0.3g, 0.5g, 1g) of carborane are tested in a test chamber, where filament discharge was generated in the mixture of helium and carborane with the same KSTAR target pressure (~ 5 mTorr) from base pressure (${\sim}10^-7\;Torr$). Discharge is performed by a pulse sequence mode with 3 second power on and 5 second power off. Deposited films of a-C/B:H are characterized by ellipsometery, AES and XPS, and are compared with those of KSTAR.

This work employed density functional theory to investigate the structural and ferroelectric properties of the Ruddlesden-Popper (RP) phase of lead titanate, $Pb_2TiO_4$, as well as its phase transitions with epitaxial strain. A wealth of novel structural instabilities, which are absent in the host $PbTiO_3$ material, were identified in the RP phase through phonon soft-mode analysis. Our calculations showed that the ground state of $Pb_2TiO_4$ is antiferroelectric, distinct from the dominant ferroelectric phase in the corresponding host material. In addition, applied epitaxial strain was found to play a key role in the interactions among the instabilities. The induction of a sequence of antiferroelectric and antiferrodistortive (AFD) phase transitions by epitaxial strain was demonstrated, in which the ferroic instability and AFD distortion were cooperative rather than competitive, as is the case in the host $PbTiO_3$. The RP phase in conjunction with strain engineering thus represents a new approach to creating ferroic orders and modifying the interplay among structural instabilities in the same constituent materials, enabling us to tailor the functionality of perovskite oxides for novel device applications.

Recently, there has been increased interest in the study of multiphase machines due to their higher fault-tolerant capability when compared to their conventional three-phase counterparts. For six-phase machines, stator windings configured with a single isolated neutral (1N) provide significantly more post-fault torque/power than two isolated neutrals (2N). Hence, this configuration is preferred in applications where post-fault performance is critical. It is well known that min-max injection has been commonly used for three-phase and multiphase machines in healthy condition to maximize the modulation limit. However, there is a lack of discussion on min-max injection for post-fault condition. Furthermore, the effects in terms of the common-mode voltage (CMV) in modulating signals has not been discussed. This paper investigates the effect of min-max injection in post fault-tolerant control on the voltage and speed limit of a symmetrical six-phase induction machine with single isolated neutral. It is shown that the min-max injection can minimize the amplitude of reference voltage, which maximizes the modulation index and post-fault speed of the machine. This in turn results in a higher post-fault power.

Doublesex and mab-3 related transcription factor(dmrt) play crucial roles in sex determination and sex differentiation in vertebrates and invertebrates. Although dmrt genes have been identified in vertebrates, little is known about aquatic invertebrates. In this study, two dmrt genes, namely, Dc_dmrt93B and Dc_dmrt99B, were identified from brackish water flea, Diaphanosoma celebensis. Transcriptional changes were observed in the dmrt genes when the flea was exposed to bisphenol(BP), an endocrine disruptor. Sequence and phylogenetic analyses showed that both dmrt genes contained two conserved domains, namely, DM and DMA, closely clustered with those of Daphnia spp. Additionally, a significant increase in the Dc_dmrt99B mRNA expression level was observed upon exposure to intermediate concentrations of BP (bisphenol A>bisphenol S=bisphenol F, p<0.05), while the expression of Dc_dmrt93B mRNA was slightly modulated. These findings imply that the two dmrt genes may be involved in sex differentiation of D. celebensis. Furthermore, it was found that the ability of BP to modulate dmrt genes could affect development and reproduction. This study provides a basis for understanding the function of the dmrt genes and the molecular mode of action of BP in small crustaceans.

In recent years Hadoop usage has been increasing day by day. The need of development of the technology and its specified outcomes are eagerly waiting across globe to adopt speedy access of data. Need of computers and its dependency is increasing day by day. Big data is exponentially growing as the entire world is working in online mode. Large amount of data has been produced which is very difficult to handle and process within a short time. In present situation industries are widely using the Hadoop framework to store, process and produce at the specified time with huge amount of data that has been put on the server. Processing of this huge amount of data having small files & its storage optimization is a big problem. HDFS, Sequence files, HAR, NHAR various techniques have been already proposed. In this paper we have discussed about various existing techniques which are developed for accessing and storing small files efficiently. Out of the various techniques we have specifically tried to implement the HDFS- HAR, NHAR techniques.

The coastal marine ecosystems of Vietnam are one of the global biodiversity hotspots, but the biodiversity of marine fungi is not well known. To fill this major gap of knowledge, we assessed the genetic diversity (ITS sequence) of 75 fungal strains isolated from 11 surface coastal marine and deeper waters in Nha Trang Bay and Van Phong Bay using a culture-dependent approach and 5 OTUs (Operational Taxonomic Units) of fungi in three representative sampling sites using next-generation sequencing. The results from both approaches shared similar fungal taxonomy to the most abundant phylum (Ascomycota), genera (Candida and Aspergillus) and species (Candida blankii) but were different at less common taxa. Culturable fungal strains in this study belong to 3 phyla, 5 subdivisions, 7 classes, 12 orders, 17 families, 22 genera and at least 40 species, of which 29 species have been identified and several species are likely novel. Among identified species, 12 and 28 are new records in global and Vietnamese marine areas, respectively. The analysis of enzyme activity and the checklist of trophic mode and guild assignment provided valuable additional biological information and suggested the ecological function of planktonic fungi in the marine food web. This is the largest dataset of marine fungal biodiversity on morphology, phylogeny and enzyme activity in the tropical coastal ecosystems of Vietnam and Southeast Asia. Biogeographic aspects, ecological factors and human impact may structure mycoplankton communities in such aquatic habitats.

Many superconductor applications such as MRI and SMES must be operated in persistent current mode to eliminate the electrical ohmic loss. This paper presents the characteristic analysis of the high temperature superconducting (HTS) power supply made of YBCO coated conductor (CC). In this research, we have manufactured the HTS power supply to charge the 0.73 mH HTS double-pancake magnet made of YBCO CC. Among the all design parameters, the heater triggerring time and magnet applying time were the most important factors for the best performance of the HTS power supply. In this paper, three-dimensional simulation through finite element method (FEM) was used to study the heat transfer in YBCO CC and the magnetic field of the magnetic circuit. Based upon these results, the final operational sequence could be determined to generate the pumping current. In the experiment, the maximum pumping current reached about 16 A.

본 연구는 질의 응답(QA) 시스템에서 사용하는 개체명 인식(NER)의 성능을 향상시키기 위하여 시퀀스 태깅 방법론을 적용한 새로운 방법론을 제안한다. 사용자의 질의를 입력 받아 데이터베이스에 저장된 정답을 추출하기 위해서는 사람의 언어를 컴퓨터가 알아들을 수 있도록 구조화 질의어(SQL)와 같은 데이터베이스의 언어로 전환하는 과정이 필요한데, 개체명 인식은 사용자의 질의에서 데이터베이스에 포함된 클래스나 데이터 명을 식별하는 과정이다. 기존의 데이터베이스에서 질의에 포함된 단어를 검색하여 개체명을 인식하는 방식은 동음이의어와 문장성분 구를 문맥을 고려하여 식별하지 못한다. 다수의 검색 결과가 존재하면 그들 모두를 결과로 반환하기 때문에 질의에 대한 해석이 여러 가지가 나올 수 있고, 계산을 위한 시간복잡도가 커진다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 단점을 극복하기 위해 신경망 기반의 방법론을 사용하여 질의가 가지는 문맥적 의미를 반영함으로써 이러한 문제를 해결하고자 했고 신경망 기반의 방법론의 문제점인 학습되지 않은 단어에 대해서도 문맥을 통해 식별을 하고자 하였다. Sequence Tagging 분야에서 최신 기술인 Bidirectional LSTM-CRF 모델을 도입함으로써 신경망 모델이 가진 단점을 해결하였고, 학습되지 않은 단어에 대해서는 온톨로지 기반 특성치를 활용하여 문맥을 반영한 추론을 사용하였다. 음악 도메인의 온톨로지(Ontology) 지식베이스를 대상으로 실험을 진행하고 그 성능을 평가하였다. 본 연구에서 제안한 방법론인 L-Bidirectional LSTM-CRF의 성능을 정확하게 평가하기 위하여 학습에 포함된 단어들뿐만 아니라 학습에 포함되지 않은 단어들도 포함한 질의를 평가에 사용하였다. 그 결과 L-Bidirectional LSTM-CRF 모형을 재학습 시키지 않아도 학습에 포함되지 않은 단어를 포함한 질의에 대한 개체명 인식이 가능함을 확인하였고, 전체적으로 개체명 인식의 성능이 향상됨을 확인할 수 있었다.

Background: Hepatitis C virus(HCV), a family of Flaviviridae, has a host cell-derived envelope containing a positive-stranded RNA genome, and has been known as the maj or etiological agent for chronic hepatitis, hepatic cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. There remains a need to dissect a molecular mechanism of pathogenesis for the development of therapeutic and effective preventive measure for HCV. Identification of cellular receptor is of central importance not only to understand the viral pathogenesis, but also to exploit strategies for prevention of HCV. This study was aimed at identifying peptide mimotopes inhibiting the binding of E2 protein of HCV to MOLT-4 cell. Methods: In this study, phage peptide library displaying a random peptides consisting of 7 or 12 random peptides was employed in order to pan against E2 protein. Free HCV particles were separated from the immune complex forms by immunoprecipitation using anti-human IgG antibody, and used for HCV-capture ELISA. To identify the peptides inhibiting E2-binding to MOLT-4 cells, E2 protein was subj ect to bind to MOLT-4 cells under the competition with phage peptides. Results: Several phage peptides were selected for their specific binding to E2 protein, which showed the conserved sequence of SHFWRAP from 3 different peptide sequences. They were also able to recognize the HCV particles in the sera of HCV patients captured by monoclonal antibody against E2 protein. Two of them, showing peptide sequence of HLGPWMSHWFQR and WAPPLERSSLFY respectively, were revealed to inhibit the binding of E2 protein to MOLT-4 cell efficiently in dose dependent mode. However, few membrane-associated receptor candidates were seen using Fasta3 programe for homology search with these peptides. Conclusion: Phage peptides containing HLGPWMSHWFQR and WAPPLERSSLFY respectively, showed the inhibition of E2-binding to MOLT-4 cells. However, they did not reveal any homologues to cellular receptors from GenBank database. In further study, cellular receptor could be identified through the screening of cDNA library from MOLT-4 or hepatocytes using antibodies against these peptide mimotopes.
