  • Drosophila protects itself from infection by microbial organisms by means of its pivotal defense, the so-called innate immunity system. This is its sole defense as it lacks an adaptive immunity system such as is found in mammals. The strong conservation of innate immunity systems in organisms from Drosophila to mammals, and the ease with which Drosophila can be manipulated genetically, makes this fly a good model system for investigating the mechanisms of virulence of a number of medically important pathogens. Potentially damaging endogenous and/or exogenous challenges sensed by specific receptors initiate signals via the Toll and/or Imd signaling pathways. These in turn activate the transcription factors Dorsal, Dorsal-related immune factor (Dif) and Relish, culminating in transcription of genes involved in the production of antimicrobial peptides, melanization, phagocytosis, and the cytoskeletal rearrangement required for appropriate responses. Clarifying the regulatory interactions between the various pathways involved is very important for understanding the specificity and termination mechanism of the immune response.

  • Automobile sunroof buffeting is the tonal noise of low frequency around 20Hz. It occurs due to the acoustic feedback process between the shear layer detached from the leading edge of sunroof opening and the Helmholtz resonator-like property of a car cabin. In this paper, PIV visualization technique is applied to the unsteady flow field around sunroof opening of an SUV in the full-scale automotive wind tunnel in order to find out buffeting mechanism. A phase-marking PIV measurement method, in which image and sound pressure are recorded simultaneously, and a phase-rearrangement post-processing program were developed for capturing noise-related velocity fields without expensive synchronization systems. Through this study, some characteristics of the real-car sunroof shear layers under various deflector conditions were identified and these results can provide insights into the noise reduction mechanism of the tube-type deflector.

  • Irradiation of 1 , 4-diphenylbut-1-en-3-yne 1 and some p-quinones in dichloromethane with 300nm UV light yield tow types of adducts, i.e., p-quinomethanes and cyclobutanes, in which the former were produced via the rearrangement of the intially formed spiro-oxetene intermediates. On the other hadn 1 added to o-quinones to give three types of adducts, i.e., 1, 3-dienes, 1, 4-dioxenes, or spiro-oxetanes, in which the former were found to be applied to synthesize phenanthrene derivatives. A methoxy derivative of enyne 39 was synthesized to investigate the type of thephotoaddition to o-quinones, in which 1, 4-dioxenes were obatained.

  • Irradiation of 1-(o-allyloxyphenyl)-2-pentamethyldisilanylenthyne 2a in methanol yields two 1 : 1 photoaddition products 3 and 4 via silacyclopropene intermediate. Photolysis of 2a with acetone in deaerated methylene chloride yields site specific and regioselective 1 : 1 adducts 6 ad 7 via silacyclopropene and 1-sila-1, 2-propdiene intermediate, respectively. Photolysis of 2a and 1-(o-(3', 3'-dimethyl-2'-propenylox)phenyl)-2-pen-tamethyldisilanylethyone 2b in benzene provides novel stereoselevtive intramolecular cyclization products 10 and 11, respectively. Irradiation of 1-(o-acetoxyphenyl)-2-pentamethyldisilanyl ethyne 2c in benzene yields the photo-Fries rearrangement products 18 and 19 and a photoproduct 17 via silacyclopropene intermediate. Photolysis of 1-(o-methoxycarbonlymethoxyphenyl)-2-pentamethyl disilanylenthyne 2d in benzene provides a novel intramolecular cycloaddition product 25 and 1-(o-methoxycarbonylemthoxiyphenyl)-2-trimethylsilylethyne 26 via silacyclopropene intermediate.

  • Quantitative analysis of 5-hydroxymethylfufural (5-HMF) conversion from fructose by dehydration and rearrangement was investigated by $^1H$-NMR spectroscopic method. Fructose was converted to 5-HMF in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO)-$d^6$ or acidic deuterium hydroxide at controlled reaction temperature and time. With addition of internal standards (biphenyl for DMSO-$d^6$ solvent, and 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid for deuterium oxide solvent), conversion from fructose to 5-HMF was analyzed by $^1H$-NMR spectroscopy. Quantitative analysis was run by comparison with peak area integration between of 5-HMF and internal standard. In DMSO solvent, 5-HMF was stable end product but part of 5-HMF was converted to formic and levulinic acid at acidic aqueous medium.

  • The objective of the study is to assess the water quality improvement resulted from the rearrangement of the irrigation water supply systems at Mankyeong River and Ansung Chun basin. There is a mixed type of watershed composed of urban and rural areas in the region. The water intake facilities for agricultural use such as reservoir, weir and pumping station are generally located at upstream river where the water quality maintains relatively clean. However, this study focuses on moving the water intake to downstream and rearranging the irrigation water supply system, then investigating how effective they are for water quality improvement in the river. When the water intake is moved downstream, the stream flow is increased as much as the amount of irrigation water that is to be taken upstream. The augmented flow which is frequently referred to as environmental flow can function as dilution water for improving the quality of polluted water that is originated from the wastewater in tributaries.

  • The influence of the direction of applied compressive stress on degradation mechanism ofpoled PZT sample was studied. When compressive stress perpendicular to poling direction was appliedon poled PZT sample, the degradation phenomena was explained by the diffusion of space chargepolarization. On the contrary, compressive stress parallel to poling direction was applied, it wasexplained by the rearrangement of 90" domains. As the grain size increased, the degradation phenomenawas promoted. It is attributed to different internal stress due to difference of grain size. of grain size.

  • The noise sources in the outdoor unit of RAC are identified by the sound intensity method. The main noise sources are compressor noise and fluid noise which is caused by the fan. heat exchanger and shroud. First. the fluid noise is reduced through the design of new fan and shroud. reduction of the system resistance by rearrangement of heat exchanger. and optimization of the complex parameter between the fan and shroud. Next, in order to reduce the compressor noise, the new shape of compressor mount and sound-proof material was applied. As a result, the overall noise was reduced by 4∼5dB (A).

  • Nanocrystalline ceria powders were prepared by hydrothermal treatment of cerium(IV) ammonium nitrate solution without a precipitating agent. A systematic investigation of the effect of hydrothermal temperature and react ion time on the physical properties of the product powders was carried out. When the hydrothermal temperature was increased, the product ceria powders exhibited larger crystallite size with higher yield. Increasing reaction time produced more crystalline ceria powders attributed to further hydrothermal reactions and structural rearrangement. The physical properties of ceria powders can be control led by adjusting the hydrothermal conditions.

  • Companies of Build-to-Order(BTO) strive to achieve customer responsiveness and cost efficiency simultaneously. The success of BTO depends upon the high volume production based on product plat form and delayed differentiation principle on the one hand, and upon the rapid estimation of delivery and cost for the customer orders on the other hand. Expeditious processing of a specific order requires the rearrangement of production resources and the schedule, which results in increased cost. This paper describes a cost estimation method using activity-based costing depending on the schedule change caused by urgent customer orders.
