The effect of A/B moi ratios and sintering temperatures on dielectric properties and microstructure of $(Ba_{0.93}Ca_{0.07})_m(Ti_{0.82}Zr_{0.18})O_3$ ceramics were investigated. The dielectric constant decreased with increasing the A/B mol ratio. However, the dielectric loss is improved. As the dielectric properties of A/B mol ratio with m = 1.009 at sintered temperature $1260^{\circ}C$, we obtained dielectric constant 12,800, dielectric loss $3.5\%$ and Y5V temperature characteristics. Highly reliable Ni-MLCCs, 1.6mm$(length){\time}0.8mm(width){\time}0.8mm$(height) with capacitance of 1.23 ${\mu}F$ and 야ssipation loss of $5.2\%$ were obtained employing dielectric material composed of $(Ba_{0.93}Ca_{0.07})_{1.009}(Ti_{0.82}Zr_{0.18})O_3$ - $MnO_2\;0.2wt\%-Y_2O_3\;0.18wt\%,\;-\;SO_2\;0.15wt\%-(Ba_{0.4}Ca_{0.6})SiO_3\;1wt\%$.

Three specimens, presumed to be natural hybrids between Rhodeus notatus and R. ocellatus, were collected from Onyangcheon Stream area, Jwabu-dong, Asan-si, Chungcheongnamdo, the Republic of Korea, and morphological and phylogenetic analyses were performed to clearly identify their parent species. The body color of the three natural hybrids was light greenish-brown on dorsal side, and the size of red area on the upper front of the dorsal fin and the outer margin of the anal fin generally showed intermediate characters between the parent species, R. notatus and R. ocellatus. Among the measurement and meristic characters, the ratio of prepectoral length and preanal length in the standard length, and the ratio of snout length, interorbital width, length of caudal peduncle and depth of caudal peduncle in the head length, and the number of longitudinal row scales were analyzed as the unique characters of natural hybrids. In the rag1 gene of nuclear DNA, the three natural hybrids were analyzed to be reflected all the single nucleotide polymorphism sites between R. notatus and R. ocellatus, and in the phylogenetic tree using the cytb gene of mitochondrial DNA, they formed the same genetic clade as R. notatus. Therefore, three specimens, presumed to be natural hybrids analyzed in this study were identified as interspecific hybrids between female R. notatus and male R. ocellatus.

Background: Down regulation of major histocompatibility complex class II transactivator (CIITA) has been identified as a major factor of immunosuppression in sepsis and the level of CIITA expression inversely correlates with the degree of severity. However, it has not been fully elucidated whether the lower expression of CIITA is a cause of disease process or a just associated sign. Here we determined whether the CIITA deficiency decreased survival rate using murine sepsis model. Methods: Major histocompatibility complex class II (MHC-II) deficient, CIITA deficient and wild type B6 mice were subjected to cecal ligation puncture (CLP) surgery. CIITA and recombination activation gene (RAG)-1 double deficient mice were generated to test the role of lymphocytes in CIITA-associated sepsis progression. Results: Sepsis mortality was enhanced in CIITA deficient mice, not by impaired bacterial clearance resulted from CD4 T cell depletion, but hyper-inflammatory response such as excessive release of a pro-inflammatory cytokine, high-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1). Conclusion: Our results demonstrate that CIITA deficiency affects the course of sepsis via the unexpected function of CIITA, regulation of cytokine release.

We report the cathodoluminescence and aging properties of a series of green phosphors of formula $Sr_{1-x}M_xGa_2S_4$:Eu (x = 0.0-1.0, M = Ba or Ca) that have potential applications in field emission displays (FEDs). The series of phosphors was synthesized via NaBr-aided solid-state reactions in a flowing $H_2S$ stream. A low level ($\sim$20%) of Ba or Ca substitution for Sr in $SrGa_2S_4$:Eu maintains the orthorhombic phase of pure $SrGa_2S_4$:Eu phosphors. Further, a low level ($\sim$20%) of Ba or Ca substitution for Sr in $SrGa_2S_4$:Eu provides various green colors and sufficient brightness for FED applications. Substitution of Ba or Ca for Sr in $SrGa_2S_4$:Eu also improved the stability of the phosphor when it was operated under electron-beam irradiation of 5 kV.

The $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ of anode material for the hybrid capacitor was coated using $CePO_4$, $M_3(PO_4)_2$ (M=Mg, Zn). The capacitance of phosphate coated $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ was found to be lower than that of $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$, whereas the equivalent series resistance was higher than that of $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$. With an increase in cycle number, the base of cylindrical cell exhibited swelling due to gas generated from the reaction between $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ and electrolyte. The swelling cycle number of phosphate coated $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ was higher than that of $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ due to improvement in electrochemical stability. Based on the results, it is proposed that phosphate coating can be employed as a barrier layer to control the gassing reaction by isolating the $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ particle from electrolyte solution.

One of the problems of the currently used IPv4 addressing-structure is the fact that there is a shortage of IP addresses and many addresses are being wasted, especially on sub-netting design. The variable subnet masking is a resolution to reduce IP address wasting. We propose an effective subnet W address calculation and management method on VLSM. Also, with the proposed subnet IP address management method, a web based subnet allocation and management system is introduced.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of moving mass on the vibration characteristics and the dynamic response of the simply supported beam. The three types of the moving mass(moving load, unsprung mass, and sprung mass) are applied to the vehicle-bridge interaction analysis. The numerical analyses are then conducted to evaluate the effect of the mass, spring and damper properties of the moving mass on natural frequencies and dynamic responses of the simply supported beam. Particularly, in the case of the sprung mass, variations of the natural frequency of simply supported beam are explored depending on the position of the moving mass and the frequency ratio of the moving mass and the beam. Finally the parametric studies on the resonance phenomena are performed with changing mass, spring and damper parameters through the dynamic interaction analyses.

The purpose of this study is to examine the impact that change in speed and modeling methods has on maglevs' runnability. The study constructed equations of motion on 4-DOF, 6DOF, and 10-DOF vehicles respectively and carried out numerical analysis, applying 4th Runge Kutta method, in order to run six different model maglev as changing the vehicles speed on the same bridge that had 2000 to 1 deflection. The analysis revealed that maglev's runnability improved as speed was lower and the specific model had higher number of bogey and EMS.

The electron spin resonance lineshape (ESRLS) function for the electron spin resonance linewidth (ESRLW) of $Cr^{3+}$ (S = 3/2) in ferroelectric lithium niobate single crystals doped with 0.05 wt% of Cr, is obtained by using the projection operator technique (POT), developed by Argyres and Sigel. The ESRLS function is calculated to be axially symmetric about the c - axis and analyzed by using the spin Hamiltonian $H_{SP}={\mu}_B(B{\cdot}{^\leftrightarrow_{g}}{\cdot}S)+S{\cdot}{^\leftrightarrow_{D}}{\cdot}S$ with the parameters g = 1.972 and D = $0.395\;cm^{-1}$. In the ca plane, the linewidths show a strong angular dependence, whereas in the ab plane, they are independent of the angle. This result implies that the resonance center has an axial symmetry along the c - axis. Further, from the temperature dependence of the linewidths that is shown, it can be seen that the linewidths increase as the temperature increases, at a frequency of v = 9.27GHz. This result implies that the scattering effect increases with increasing temperature. Thus, the POT is considered to be more convenient to explain the scattering mechanism as in the case of other optical resonant systems.

In order to enhance sintering characteristics on the $ZnO-Pr_6O_{11}$ based multilayer chip varistors (MLVs), a response surface analysis using central composite design method were carried out. As a result, varistor voltage($V_{1mA}$), nonlinear coefficient ($\alpha$), leakage current ($I_L$) and capacitance (C) were considered to be mainly affected by sintered temperature and holding time. MLVs sintered at $1200^{\circ}C$ and above $1200^{\circ}C$ revealed poor electrical characteristics, possibly due to the reaction between electrode materials(Pd) and $ZnO-Pr_6O_{11}$ based ceramics. On the sintering temperature range $1150{\sim}1175^{\circ}C$, nonlinear coefficient ($\alpha$) and leakage current ($I_L$) were shown to be $60{\sim}69$ and below $0.3{\mu}A$, respectively. In particular, MLVs sintered at $1175^{\circ}C$, 1.5 hr and $2^{\circ}C/hr$ (cooling speed) showed stable ESD(Electrical Static Discharge) characteristics under the condition of 10 times at 8 Kv with deviation varistor voltage, and deviation nonlinear coefficient were 0.3% and 0.33% (at positive), 0.55% (at negative), respectively.
