Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the expression level of filaggrin-2 (FLG2) in correlation with drip loss. Methods: The muscle samples were randomly taken from a local meat supplier. Samples were taken from Longissimus lumborum muscles to evaluate the drip loss (n = 100). Five muscles per group (low and high drip loss) were selected to evaluate FLG2 mRNA and protein expression levels. Results: mRNA of FLG2 gene was not significantly different in pigs with different levels of drip loss (p>0.05). Statistical analysis revealed that FLG2 protein expression levels were significantly different between the drip loss groups. Western blot revealed that the high drip loss group had higher FLG2 protein expression level than the low drip loss group (p<0.001). Moreover, immunohistochemistry revealed the high signal intensity was on the muscle cell membrane and cytoplasm. Conclusion: FLG2 protein might play roles in drip loss of pork and will provide the basis for information to improving meat quality traits in pigs.

The nutrients runoff including nitrogen and phosphorous was investigated to find out the characteristics of nutrient discharge from the slurrigated area using digested animal manure. The results obtained are summarized as follows: 1.The concentrations of T-N, $NH_4$- N, EC, T- P and Cl- were high in flood runoff. 2.The concentration of nutrients by the surface runoff, except for $NO_3$-N, showed a tendency of increasing when the period of dry days before the rain fall was long. And the concentration of N$NO_3$-N increased in the inflow section where subsurface drainage flowed in. 3.The quality of water was generally influenced by the discharge of water quantity from slurrigated area. However the runoff concentration influenced the water quality when it was high enough. 4.To reduce loss of the nutrients and improve the fertilization effect, it is not recommended to apply slurry in rainy season.

Nano composite materials were multi-constituent combinations of nano dimensional phases with distinct differences in structure, chemistry and properties. Nano particles were less likely to create large stress concentrations and thereby can avoid the compromise of the material ductility while improve other mechanical properties. Corona discharge was an electrical discharge. The ionization of a fluid surrounding a conductor was electrically energized. This discharge would occur when the strength of the electric field around the conductor was high enough to form a conductive region, but not high enough to cause electrical breakdown or arcing to nearby objects. This paper shows all the studies done on the preparation of nano fillers. Special attention has given to the ACSR transmission line conductor, TiO₂ nano fillers and also to the evaluation of corona resistance on dielectric materials discussed in detail. The measurement of the dielectric properties of the nano fillers and the parameters influencing them were also discussed in the paper. Corona discharge test reveals that in 0%N ACSR sample corona loss was directly proportional to the applied line voltage. No significant change in corona loss between 0%N and 1%N. When TiO₂ nano filler concentration was increased up to 10%N fine decrement in corona loss was found when compared to base ACSR conductor, corona loss was decreased by 40.67% in 10%N ACSR sample. It was also found from the surface conditions test that inorganic TiO₂ nano filler increases the key parameters like tensile strength and erosion depth.

Let $X_1$, $X_2$, ${\cdots}$, $X_n$ be independent and identically distributed random variables having common exponential density with unknown mean ${\mu}$. In the sequential confidence interval estimation for the exponential hazard rate ${\theta}=1/{\mu}$, when the loss function is strictly convex, the following stopping rule is proposed with the half length d of prescribed confidence interval $I_n$ for the parameter ${\theta}$; ${\tau}$ = smallest integer n such that $n{\geq}z^2_{{\alpha}/2}\hat{\theta}^2/d^2+2$, where $\hat{\theta}=(n-1)\bar{X}{_n}^{-1}/n$ is the minimum risk estimator for ${\theta}$ and $z_{{\alpha}/2}$ is defined by $P({\mid}Z{\mid}{\leq}{\alpha}/2)=1-{\alpha}({\alpha}{\in}(0,1))$ Z ~ N(0, 1). For the confidence intervals $I_n$ which is required to satisfy $P({\theta}{\in}I_n){\geq}1-{\alpha}$. These estimated intervals $I_{\tau}$ have the asymptotic consistency of the sequential procedure; $$\lim_{d{\rightarrow}0}P({\theta}{\in}I_{\tau})=1-{\alpha}$$, where ${\alpha}{\in}(0,1)$ is given.

The aim of this study was to assess the effects of artificial unloading induced by hindlimb suspension on the trabecular bone in tibiae. Twenty four 12-week-old Sprague-Dawley rats were assigned to 3 groups, namely, the control group (CON, n = 8), the hindlimb-suspended group (HLS, n = 8) and HLS with partial vibration group (HLSPV, n = 8). After 4 weeks, compared with CON group, HLS group had significantly greater decreases on BMD, BV/TV, Tb.N, Conn.Dn and increase on Tb.Sp (p < 0.05). However, there were no significant differences in BMD and the other micro structural parameters of tibial trabecular bones between CON and HLSPV (p > 0.05). These results implied that partial vibration might inhibit the bone loss induced by hindlimb suspension. Furthermore, we could expect to apply partial vibration system in space environment, to prevent bone loss in astronauts.

본 논문에서는 X-band에서 사용할 수 있는 손실이 작은 n-방향 전력분배기의 설계방법을 제안하였다. 손실을 적게 하기 위하여 전송선로와 정합을 위한 아이솔레이션 저항을 단지 2단만 사용하여 설계하였다. 3-방향과 4-방향 전력분배기를 측정한 결과 전력분배는 3-방향에서 5.54~6.17dB, 4-방향에서 6.76-7.37dB이며, 반사손 실은 3-방향에서 17dB 이상, 4-방향에서 1갱B 이상이고, 아이솔레이션은 3 방향에서 l&iB 이상, 4 방향에서 10dB 이상으로 측정되었다. 이 값은 이론적인 분석과 거의 일치하였다.

오늘날 전력소자의 작동에 고주파를 사용하기 때문에 에너지 손실을 줄이기 위해 전력소자의 스위칭 속도를 증가시키는 것은 필수적이다. 본 연구에서는 $p^+- n^-$ 접합 다이오드의 스위칭 속도를 증가시킬 목적으로 minority carrier의 수명을 감소시킬 수 있는 전자조사를 실시하였다. 다이오드의 전기적 성질에 대한 전자조사의 효과를 나타냈다. 스위칭 속도는 효과적으로 증가하였다. 또한 증가될 것으로 예상되는 접합 누설 전류와 전자조사 후 정전압강하는 최적 조건의 에너지와 dose량으로 조사된 $p^+- n^-$접합 다이오드에서는 무시할 수 있는 정도로 나타났다. DLTS와 C-V 분석은 실리콘 기판에서 전자조사로 감소된 결함은 0.284eV와 0.483eV의 에너지 준위를 갖는 donor-like 결함인 것을 보여준다. 본 연구에서의 실험 결과를 고려해 보면, 전자조사는 $p^+- n^-$ 접합 다이오드 전력 소자의 스위칭 속도를 증가시켜 에너지 손실을 감소시킬 수 있는 가장 유용한 기술이라고 결론지을 수 있다.

This paper presents a method of parasitic inductance reduction for high-speed switching and high-efficiency operation of a cascode structure with a low-voltage enhancement-mode silicon (Si) metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) and a high-voltage depletion-mode gallium nitride (GaN) fielde-ffect transistor (FET). The method is proposed to add a bonding wire interconnected between the source electrode of the Si MOSFET and the gate electrode of the GaN FET in a conventional cascode structure package to reduce the most critical inductance, which provides the major switching loss for a high switching speed and high efficiency. From the measured results of the proposed and conventional GaN cascode FETs, the rising and falling times of the proposed GaN cascode FET were up to 3.4% and 8.0% faster than those of the conventional GaN cascode FET, respectively, under measurement conditions of 30 V and 5 A. During the rising and falling times, the energy losses of the proposed GaN cascode FET were up to 0.3% and 6.7% lower than those of the conventional GaN cascode FET, respectively.

We obtain an asymptotic behavior of the loss probability for the GI/PH/1/K queue as K tends to infinity when the traffic intensity p is strictly less than one. It is shown that the loss probability tends to 0 at a geometric rate and that the decay rate is related to the matrix generating function describing the service completions during an interarrival time.
