Previous works related to texture coordinate coding of the three-dimensional(3-D) mesh models employed the same predictor as the geometry coder. However, discontinuities in the texture coordinates cause unreasonable prediction. Especially, discontinuities become more serious for the 3-D mesh model with a non-atlas texture image. In this paper, we propose a new coding scheme to remove discontinuities in the texture coordinates by reallocating texture segments according to a coding order. Experiment results show that the proposed coding scheme outperforms the MPEG-4 3DMC standard in terms of compression efficiency. The proposed scheme not only overcome the discontinuity problem by regenerating a texture image, but also improve coding efficiency of texture coordinate compression.

For the purpose of experimental and clinical studies on the 14 channels and collaterals, we performed an inquiry on the anatomical mapping of neronal, circulatory and muscular networks in the human body which possibly correspond to the major pathway of Du channel and Ren channel known to be critical for overall controlling and mediating 12 regular channel connections. The theoretical background of this analysis was based on the oriental medicinal treatises which described acu-points and related anatomical informations. We suggest that rearrangement methodology for the 12 regular channels as described here may be applied to other 12 regular channels and to develop the new concept on the elucidation of the medical efficacy based on precise anatomical localization of channels and collaterals as well as the meridian points. It is proposed that interdisciplinary studies between oriental and western medicine are critical for more efficient achievement.

The piping systems in the steam-driven power engines lie under the cyclic condition of thermal expansion and contraction by superheated steam. These phenomena might cause some severe damages on the pipes and the accessory devices. To avoid these damages, the calculation of the proper strength and the consideration of the reduced resultant forces on the materials are needed. In the present study, numerical investigations on the effects of the thermal deformation of the industrial piping system were performed with comparison of the design data. Commercial software, ABAQUS with the thermal-fluidic loadings based on the design conditions was used for the thermal stress analysis of the piping system. From the analysis of the initially-designed pipe supporters, the rearrangement was suggested to improve the piping design.

A series of 2',3'-dideoxy-3'-fluoro-D-apiosyl nucleosides 15, 16, 17 and 18 were synthesized enantiomerically with L-Gulonic- ${\gamma}$-lactone as the starting material. The reduction of butenolide 1 with DIBAL-H followed by the Luche procedure afforded the allylic alcohol 2. Ozonolysis and the reduction of compound 4 induced the cyclized lactol, which was acetylated to give the acetate 7. Condensation of the acetate 7 with silylated pyrimidine ($N^4$-benzoyl cytosine) and a purine base (6-chloropurine) under Vorbruggen conditions and deblocking afforded a series of fluorinated apiosyl nucleosides.

This survey is executed about the water quality and improvement measure of Imjin- river. The results are summarized as follows; 1 ) Ammonia nitrogen concentration in tap water was two times higher than drinking water standard. 2) The concentration of BOD in textile wastewater was 235ppm which is higher than wastewater distribution standard and leather wastewater showed high nitrogen concentration. 3) Water quality of the Imjin- river upstream was not in problem but that of Shin- stream showed somewhat high concentration in BOD, COD, and ammonia nitrogen. Especially the detected Cynide compound on the lower of Shin- stream implied seriously polluted condition. 4) The heavy metal in soil of the river bed was not detected but iron, zinc was detected to high concentration. 5) It Is urgently suggested to build more municipal sewage and sanitary treatment plants, and run dredging and river bed rearrangement project. 6) The Construction of the wastewater treatment complexes of relevant industries shall be propelled as soon as possible.

In this paper, a new algorithm for high level security and quality of speech is proposed. The algorithm is based on the rearrangement of the fast fourier transform (FFT) coefficients with pre and post filter process, hamming window and adaptive pseudo spectrum insertion. Then, the pre and post filters are used for the whitening of speech spectrum and the adaptive pseudo spectrum is inserted for the unclassification of silence/speech. Also, the hamming window technique is applied for the robustness to the syncronization error in the telephone line. According to the simulation results, it can be seen that the security of scrambled signal and the quality of descrambled signal have been improved fairly in both subjective and objective performance test and the new FFT scrambler is robust to the synchronization error.

Effect of particle size of alumina and amount of talc on tape casting and densification behaviors of alumina-talc system were investigated. The pseudoplastic behaviors of slurries increased with increase in amount of talc addition and decrease in alumina particle size. In case of using coarse alumina powder, densification of specimens were accelerated with increase of sintering temperature and amount of talc addition. On the contrary, fine alumina powder retarded of rearrangement of alumina particle during liquid phase sintering due to premature densification of alumina matrix region before formation of liquid phase and then densification of specimens were suppressed with increase of sintering temperature and amount of talc addition.

The chemistry background of the Maillard reaction focused on pyrazines and factors affecting the reaction products were reviewed. The Maillard reaction, also called a non-enzymatic browning reaction, is quite complex and generates numerous reaction products. In processed foods, it is generally accepted as a key reaction to produce flavor components. Specially, pyrazines possess an important impact character on the roasted foods with other heterocyclic compounds. The Maillard reaction is initiated by condensation between reducing sugar and amino group, and N-glycosylamines are produced via Schiff base with dehydration of water. After the rearrangement of the N-glycosylamines, they follow transformation into deoxyhexosones which are reactive intermediates. Degradation and fragmentation are facilitated by rearranged compounds. By condensation, pyrazine, one of the final Maillard products, is generated as a relatively stable form to provide specific aromas. During the processes of the reaction, chemical or physical environmental parameters affect the formation of the products.

This article describes esthetic improvement in a patient with a missing maxillary left central incisor. Space analysis of the anterior dentition showed that minor tooth rearrangement was needed. Optimal space distribution for restorations was attained by orthodontic treatment. Through transforming tooth shape with porcelain laminate veneers, the maxillary left lateral incisor was transformed into central incisor and the maxillary left canine into a lateral incisor. The maxillary right central incisor was also restored for esthetic improvement. In a case of changing a tooth shape with porcelain laminate veneers, pre-treatment evaluation, space analysis and diagnostic wax-up are important factors.

The injection molding process is used in the fabrication of a large variety of plastic articles. A numerical simulation of the filling stage along the thickness direction is proposed by combining the free surface boundary condition with the relevant governing equations. The mathematical model is based on the equations of continuity, momentum and energy along with inelastic power-law model and relevant boundary conditions. Due to the significant implications for microstructure development in the pro duct, the fountain effect at the advancing free surface is explicitly taken into consideration in the simulation. The model yields data on free surface shape as well as velocity, pressure, temperature and shear stress distributions within the mold cavity. The rearrangement of the velocity and temperature profiles in the vicinity of the melt front is considered in detail.
