Heat transfer coefficient were measured and new correlations were developed for two-phase heat transfer in a horizontal pipe for different patterns. Flow patterns were observed in a transparent circular pipe (2.54 cm I. D. and L/D=96) using an air/water mixture. Visual identification of the flow patterns was supplemented with photographic data and the results were plotted on the flow regime map proposed by Taitel and Dukler and agreed quite well with each other. A two-phase heat transfer experimental setup was built for this study and a total of 150 two-phase heat transfer data with different flow patterns were obtained under a uniform wall heat flux boundary condition. For these data, the superficial Reynolds number ranged from 640 to 35,500 for the liquid and from 540 to 21,200 for the gas. Our previously developed robust two-phase heat transfer correlation for a vertical pipe with modified constants predicted the horizontal pipe air-water heat transfer experimental data with good accuracy. Overall the proposed correlations predicted the data with a mean deviation of 1.0% and an rms deviation of 12%.

This paper presents a new technique for directly designing a linear digital controller for a single-phase pulse width modulation (PWM) converter systems, based on closed-loop identification. The design procedure consists of three steps. First, obtain a digital current controller for the inner loop system by using the error space approach, so that the power factor of the supply is close to one. The outer loop is composed of a voltage controller, a current control loop including a current controller, a PWM converter, and a capacitor. Then, all the components, except the voltage controller, are identified by a discrete-time equivalent linear model, using the closed-loop output error (CLOE) method. Based on this equivalent model, a proper digital voltage controller is then directly designed. It is shown through PSim simulations and experimental results that the proposed method is useful for the practical design of PWM converter controllers.

배전계통은 여러 가지 이유로 잦은 고장을 경험하기 때문에 고장위치 추정은 전력공급 신뢰도 측면에서 매우 중요하다. 그렇지만 배전계통은 주 선로에서 분기되는 3상 및 단상 분기선을 가지는 수지상 구조로 설계되며 각 구간 상에 수개의 로드 탭을 가지기 때문에 고장점 표정이 어렵다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기존의 전력계통 고장점 표정기법에 대해서 조사, 분석하여 배전자동화시스템의 중앙제어장치에서 효과적으로 실행할 수 있는 고장거리 계산 기법을 결정한다. 그리고 EMTP 모의 결과를 통해 결정된 방법의 유효성을 검증한다.

Nonpolar taxoides extracted from a large-scale cell culture of Taxus chinensis were isolated through the normal and reverse phase column chromatographies, and their compounds were identified via NMR spectroscopy. The complete separation method was systematically established and described. In dichloromethane, dissolved paclitaxel and other taxoids with hexane were precipitated during the purification of paclitaxel from the plant cell culture of T. chinensis through a large-scale process while the relatively nonpolar taxane derivatives remained dissolved in the hexane phase. 13-Deoxy baccatin III (I), baccatin VI (II), taxchinin I (III), $2{\alpha}$, $5{\alpha}$, $10{\beta}$, $14{\beta}$-tetraacetoxy-4(20), 11-taxadiene(IV), 1-deoxy baccatinVI(V), and taxayuntin C (VI) were isolated through column chromatography and identified via NMR spectroscopy. Compounds I and IV were found to the major components, aside from paclitaxel, in the plant cell culture of T. chinensis. The concentrations of I and IV were compared with the that concentration of the paclitaxel in each of plant cell culture. The possible applications of compounds I, II, IV, and V were discussed.

The Remote Sensing Group of the Mines and Geosciences Bureau (MGB) has acquired SAR data of the Central Cebu Island for its research study area. The MGB is one of the proponent of DOST-NASA PACRIM II Project, which is composed of eleven (11) agencies and institutions in the Philippines, that focuses on the scientific application of radar data with the theme on hazard and natural resources management. The PACRIM II Project, being done on three-year term, is slated for completion in the year 2004. The main thrust of the project study of the MGB is the baseline environmental monitoring studies, on which the data are to be fused with some other available data from LandSAT and photogrammetry. The generated data is part of the information for the update of thematic mapping being done. The 12 ${\times}$ 60 km swath AirSAR data covers the Central Cebu Island. The highlights of conducting this research project are: Extent of Watershed Basin boundaries - identification of the tributaries that drain water supply to the metropolitan area; Monitoring of the mountain highways - identification of landslide risk prone sites as part of natural hazard monitoring on a national highway that cuts along the mountainous areas; and Coastline change assessment - monitoring the coastline activities relative to the rapid urbanization and exposure as part of coastal management. The Phase 1 of this report discusses the fusion with the ArcView generated data as baseline studies on the monitoring activities.

Roofers get exposed to increased risk of knee musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) at different phases of a sloped shingle installation task. As different phases are associated with different risk levels, this study explored the application of machine learning for automated classification of seven phases in a shingle installation task using knee kinematics and roof slope information. An optical motion capture system was used to collect knee kinematics data from nine subjects who mimicked shingle installation on a slope-adjustable wooden platform. Four features were used in building a phase classification model. They were three knee joint rotation angles (i.e., flexion, abduction-adduction, and internal-external rotation) of the subjects, and the roof slope at which they operated. Three ensemble machine learning algorithms (i.e., random forests, decision trees, and k-nearest neighbors) were used for training and prediction. The simulations indicate that the k-nearest neighbor classifier provided the best performance, with an overall accuracy of 92.62%, demonstrating the considerable potential of machine learning methods in detecting shingle installation phases from workers knee joint rotation and roof slope information. This knowledge, with further investigation, may facilitate knee MSD risk identification among roofers and intervention development.

최근 활발히 진행되고 있는 도시재생사업과 같은 대규모 복합개발사업은 사업기간이 길고 다양한 사업주체들이 참여한다. 이러한 특성 때문에 사업추진 과정상 많은 위험요인들을 내포하게 되고 이를 관리하는 것은 사업의 성패에 큰 영향을 미친다. 그러므로 도시재생사업에서 위험을 인지하고 대응하는 일련의 위험관리 과정은 정확하고 체계적으로 수행되어야 한다. 위험관리과정에서 위험인지단계는 다양한 위험요인을 인지하고 그 위험의 성격을 규정하는 첫 단계이며, 위험을 인지하는 기법 체크리스트는 가장 보편적이고 실용적인 방법이라고 할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 도시재생사업의 개발단계에서 사업주체들의 업무를 분석하고, 위험요인을 도출하여 사업주체별로 위험을 분류하는 체크리스트를 제안하였다. 이러한 주체별 위험인지 체크리스트는 실무자가 쉽게 위험을 파악할 수 있는 도구로써, 도시재생사업과 같이 다양한 사업주체들이 자신은 물론 다른 사업 참여자들의 위험을 인지하는데도 효과적일 것이라고 기대된다.

Objective: Cow urine possesses several bioactive properties but the responsible components behind these bioactivities are still far from identified. In our study, we tried to identify the possible components behind the antimicrobial activity of cow urine by exploring the peptidome and metabolome. Methods: We extracted peptides from the urine of Sahiwal cows belonging to three different physiological states viz heifer, lactation, and pregnant, each group consisting of 10 different animals. The peptides were extracted using the solid phase extraction technique followed by further extraction using ethyl acetate. The antimicrobial activity of the aqueous extract was evaluated against different pathogenic strains like Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Streptococcus agalactiae. The safety of urinary aqueous extract was evaluated by hemolysis and cytotoxicity assay on the BuMEC cell line. The urinary peptides were further fractionated using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to identify the fraction(s) containing the antimicrobial activity. The HPLC fractions and ethyl acetate extract were analyzed using nLC-MS/MS for the identification of the peptides and metabolites. Results: A total of three fractions were identified with antimicrobial activity, and nLC-MS/MS analysis of fractions resulted in the identification of 511 sequences. While 46 compounds were identified in the metabolite profiling of organic extract. The urinary aqueous extract showed significant activity against E. coli as compared to S. aureus and S. agalactiae and was relatively safe against mammalian cells. Conclusion: The antimicrobial activity of cow urine is a consequence of the feeding habit. The metabolites of plant origin with several bioactivities are eliminated through urine and are responsible for their antimicrobial nature. Secondly, the plethora of peptides generated from the activity of endogenous proteases on protein shed from different parts of tissues also find their way to urine. Some of these sequences possess antimicrobial activity due to their amino acid composition.

An initial approach for the identification of physical causes underlying the spatial coherency of seismic ground motions it presented. The approach relies on the observation that amplitude and phase variability of seismic data recorded over extended areas around the amplitude and phase of a common, coherent component are correlated. It suffices then to examine the physical causes for the amplitude variability in the seismic motions, in order to recognize the causes for the phase variability and, consequently, the spatial coherency. In this study, the effect of randomness in the shear wave velocity at a site on the amplitude variability of the surface motions mi investigated by means of simulations. The amplitude variability of the simulated motions around the amplitude of the common component is contained within envelope functions, the shape of which suggests, on a preliminary basis, the trend of the decay of coherency with frequency.
