  • Synthesis of a deuterium-labeled derivative of nitrospirobenzopyran (NSP), one of representative photochromic compounds, has been described. Four deuteriums were successfully introduced on 1-methyl and ${\alpha}$-methyne relative to spiro-carbon in the title compound with more than 95atom%D purity. Main photodegraded products of NSP were two oxindoles in acetonitrile, and additional products were formed in poly(isobutyl-methacrylate) films possibly due to restricted molecular motion in polymer matrix. Quantitative HPLC analysis revealed that partial introduction of deuterium to NSP brought a noticeable isotope effect, recognizable enhancement in photo-resistivity of NSP, i.e.,8.3% in solutions and 29% in polymeric films.

  • An experimental study of the characteristics of the repulsiveytype magnetic bearing using high Tc superconductor is presented. In field cooling superconductor has the position-stability due to a flux pinning effect and the strong damping due to hysterisis, while in zero field cooling it has the only strong repulsive force due to Meissner effect. Lift force in superconducting levitation has a hysterisis characteristics, and it is the dissipation of energy, the mechanism of damping. As the relative linear velocity between a magnet and a superconductor increases, the area of the hysterisis loop becomes smaller. It means the decrease of damping. In field cooling, the static stiffness is very nonlinear in smaller than initial gap, but almost linear in larger than initial gap.

  • In this study, centrifugal model tests were performed to investigate the behavior of excavated earth retaining wall with the depth of excavation and different types of wall(aluminum, steel panel). Jumunjin standard sand was used for foundation soil. The raining method was adopted to form the required relative density of the model ground. The lateral earth pressure measured from tests were compared with estimated active earth pressure by Rankine's theory. The test results have shown that the earth pressure acting on the retaining wall and the rotation displacement of the wall are influenced by the depth of excavation and the type of wall. It was found from the test results that the deformation of the wall increases with the depth of excavation.

  • Load master is authorized to be controlled all of loading stuffs for safety of flight such as passenger, baggage, cargo and e.t.c. There are many things are missed even though the weight and balance is the most important process. This study analyzes how the differences of C.G. by among ten load masters of each careers. This study is tested how load-master takes load-control by the respective result based on differences of each practical experiences, gender and a number of certification. In result, all of load masters set C.G. on the stability region. But the practical experience of load master is relative to set better C.G. for economical effectiveness of weight and balance control work.

  • In the preparation of prednisolone tablets, when microfine cellulose$(Elcema^{\circledR})$ was used as diluents, stability and physical characteristics of prednisolone tablets are as follows; 1. Weight of the plain $Elcema^{\circledR}$ tablets increased by 75% of relative humidity and hardness was weakend, but the temperature $(60^{\circ}C)$ caused no change of thickness and decreased the weight and hardness. 2. In experimental tableting of prednisolone tablets, the addition of $Elcema^{\circledR}$ caused no difficulty in direct compression method, and the shortening of the disintegration time and increase of the hardness were satisfactory. 3. Dissolution rate test exhibited the result similiar to disintegration test. 4. In the comparison test of $Elcema^{\circledR}$ and $Avicel^{\circledR}$ as adjuvants the physical constants of prednisolone tablets showed nearly a similar tendency.

  • Reliable discrimination of a single nucleotide mismatch was demonstrated using arrays with peptide nucleic acid (PNA) probes. The newly developed PNA probes immobilization method and hybridization conditions for PNA arrays gave excellent specificity and sensitivity. In addition we compared the specificity, sensitivity, and stability obtained with the PNA and DNA arrays in discriminating single nucleotide mismatches. The PNA arrays had superior perfect match-to-mismatch signal ratios and sensitivities. The relative signal intensities of mismatch PNA probes ranged from 1.6% to 12.1% of the perfect-match PNA probes. These results demonstrated that the PNA arrays were 2.0 to 37.3 times more specific and about 10 times more sensitive than DNA arrays. The PNA array showed the same specificity and sensitivity after 12-month storage at room temperature.

  • Cyclic AMP receptor protein(CRP) is involved in the activation of many genes corresponding to catabolite enzymes in Escherichia coli. In this study, mutant CRP(S128A) was used to elucidate the effect of Ser 128 on the cAMP-induced structural change. Based on the protease digestion and thermal analysis, serine 128 in CRP affects the cAMP binding capability and then structural change of CRP protein. In addition, CD spectra in near UV region revealed that S128A CRP retained the sensitive conformation to thermal effect relative to that of wild-type CRP, in spite of identical Tm values in the absence of cAMP.

  • Thin-film humidity sensors were prepared using inorganic/organic hybrid polyelectrolytes, which were prepared from the sol-gel reaction of copolymers of [2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl]dimethylpropylammonium bromide (MEPAB), n-butyl methacrylate (BMA), and 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate (TSPM) with tetraethyl ortho-silicate (TEOS). The humidity-sensitive polyelectrolytes were composed of the copolymers having the following mole ratios of MEPAB, BMA, and TSPM: 60/30/10, 55/30/15, and 50/30/20. We found that the impedance varied with the content of MEPAB or TEOS; it ranged from $10^{7} to 10^{3}\Omega$ between 20 and $95\%$ relative humidity, which is the range required for a humidity sensor operating at ambient humidity. In addition we investigated a number of characteristics of these humidity sensors, such as their hysteresis, response time, temperature dependence, frequency dependence, water durability, and long-term stability.

  • We propose a novel cooperative guidance law design method based on the finite time disturbance observer (FTDO) for multiple near space interceptors (NSIs) with impact time control. Initially, we construct a cooperative guidance model with head pursuit, and employ the FTDO to estimate the system disturbance caused by target maneuvering. We subsequently separate the cooperative guidance process into two stages, and develop the normal acceleration command based on the super-twisting algorithm (STA) and disturbance estimated value, to ensure the convergence of the relative distance. Then, we also design the acceleration command along the line-of-sight (LOS), based on the nonsingular fast terminal sliding mode (NFTSM) control, to ensure that all the NSIs simultaneously hit the target. Furthermore, we prove the stability of the closed-loop guidance system, based on the Lyapunov theory. Finally, our simulation results of a three-to-one interception scenario show that the proposed cooperative guidance scheme makes all the NSIs hit the target at the same time.

  • We consider a feedback control system including interval plant where uncertain parameters expressed in the hyperrectangular box X. Here we define the maximum value of the integral of the error(ISE) as the worst performance index(WPI) due to the plant parameter uncertainty. Suppose that the closed loop system retains robust stability and it belongs to type I. Then we show that the WPI occurs only on the exposed edges of Q. In particular, it is also shown that if ISE is a convex function relative to X, the WPI is attained at one of vertices of X. Some examples are given.
