In order to find out an anticariogenic substance, antibacterial activities of some medical herbs and spices against Streptococcus mutans were investigated. The essential oils of oregano, thyme, sage, fennel, nutmeg, rosemary, calamus and cassia cortex were shown antibacterial effect against S. mutans. The essential oil of oregano among other tested medical herbs and spices showed the most active antimicrobial activity. The essential oil of oregano inhibited the activity of glucosyltransferase from S. mutans. The minimal inhibition concentration of oregano essential oil was determined as 0.05nl/ml. The activity of glucosyltransferase from S. mutans was inhibited in the presence of oregano essential oil.

The 3' UTR (3' untranslated region) plays important roles in controlling gene expression through regulating 3' polyadenylation, mRNA export, subcellular localization, translational efficiency, and mRNA stability. Changes in the 3' UTR sequence in an expressed transcript can result in functional changes of the genes that are expressed in pathological conditions compared with those genes expressed in normal physiologic conditions. A genome-wide survey of 3' UTR variation was performed for the genes expressed during hematopoietic differentiation from CD34+ stem/progenitor cells to CD 15 + myeloid progenitor cells. Wide-spread differential usage of the 3' UTR was observed from the genes expressed during this cellular transition. This study implies that the 3' UTR can be a highly coordinated region for post-transcriptional regulation of the function of expressed genes.

We examined play interactions between siblings when one child has autism in a Vietnamese American and a European American family. Analysis was based on video recorded free play sessions with each set of siblings at their home. Interviews with the typically developing sibling and parents also provided supplemental data to aid our knowledge about their play behavior. This study describes the role of the typically developing sibling in play and the types of play engaged in by siblings. Findings indicate that the two sets of siblings differed in their play behavior. Specifically, significant differences were noted in the role of the typically developing sibling in play, and the types of play engaged in by the siblings. The perceptions of the typically developing siblings and parents regarding autism also differed across families, significantly affecting their play behavior. Implications for research are described.

본 연구에서는 화강풍화토 지반상 unpropped diaphragm wall의 거동을 연구하기 위하여 벽체의 근입깊이와 지하수위 조건을 변화시키면서 원심모형실험을 수행하였다. 원심모형실험시 diaphragm wall은 두께 8mm인 알루미늄합금을 사용하였으며, 지반굴착을 재현하기 위하여 zinc chloride 기법을 이용하였다. 수치해석은 대부분의 지반공학문제에 적용할 수 있는 SAGE CRISP 프로그램을 이용하였다. 수치해석에서 모형지반은 수정 Cam-Clay 모델, diaphragm wall은 탄성모델, 지반과 diaphragm wall 사이의 경계면요소는 슬립모델을 사용하여 2차원 평면변형률 조건으로 해석을 수행하였다. 모형실험 결과 파괴면의 직선적인 형태로 파괴면내의 배면측 지반은 벽체를 향하여 하향의 변위를 일으키면서 벽체의 회전에 의해 파괴되었다. 실험 및 유한요소해석 결과 지반의 최대침하량과 최대침하량이 발생하는 위치는 잘 일치하였으며, 깊이에 따른 벽체변위는 선형적인 관계를 나타내었다. 또한, 최대 휨모멘트와 근입깊이로 정규화한 최대 휨모멘트 발생위치($h_{Mmax}$/d=0.4)는 잘 일치하였다.

This study examines differences in the household saving show significant differences according to the specific stage of family life cycle. 337 housewives in Taegu were interviewed by questionnaire. Analysing method employed are frequency, percentage and Chisquare test. Findings are as follows; 1) The average ratios of household saving show significant differences according to the specific stage of family life cycle. 2) Purposed of household savings had significant differences at each stage of the family life cycle. 3) Selections of financial goods did not have significant differences according to the sage of family life cycle . 4) Selections of financial goods had significant difference according to the purposed of household savings.

In this study, improvements for error correction, speed, position, and rotation calculation algorithms have been proposed to be used in resolver to digital conversion (RDC) systems. The proposed open-loop system drives the resolver and uses the output signals of the resolver signal to estimate the real time position, the instant speed, and the rotation count with high resolution and accuracy even at high speeds and noise. The proposed solution implements strong features of both closed and open loop based systems while eliminating their weak points. The improvements proposed is resistant to noise owing to digital FIR filter and data averaging techniques. The implementation used for proof of concept is implemented on a hardware using an FPGA and configurable to be used by any resolver.

The wire rope, one of the component of the elevator, is extremely important for the sage operation of the elevator. That is why the wire rope is replaced at a specific interval regradless of the operating conditions or the degree of damage to prevent the breakage of the wire rope. This is the waste of resources, causing economic and environmental loss. This paper has surveyed and analyzed and analyzed the status of replacing wire-rope by buildings that use elevators, in order to compare the replacement cycles of the wire rope under each operating conditions.

This paper is mainly concerned with the assessment of safe navigation between ships moving each other in restricted waterways. The manoeuvring simulation was conducted parametrically to propose an appropriate sage speed and distance, which is required to avoid sea accident under the different conditions, such as ship-velocity ratios, ship-length ratios, separation and stagger between ships. The manoeuvring characteristics based on this investigation will be very useful for keeping the safety of navigation from the practical point of ships design and traffic control in confined water.

Precipitation characteristics of the Fe-36Ni based high strength Invar alloy for power transmission wire was investigated in this study. High strength can be obtained in this alloy through precipitation hardening and strain hardening by cold working. $FactSage{(R)}$ in this study, revealing that equilibrium phases which can be formed are two kind of MC-type precipitates and MoC carbide. The latter stoichiometric carbide was expected to be formed at relatively lower temperature $770^{\circ}C$. High strength above 1000MPa and 40% of elongation were obtained at room temperature in both cases.

In many moving object detection problems of an aerial video, accurate and robust stabilization is of critical importance. In this paper, a novel accurate image alignment algorithm for aerial electronic image stabilization (EIS) is described. The feature points are first selected using optimal derivative filters based Harris detector, which can improve differentiation accuracy and obtain the precise coordinates of feature points. Then we choose the Delaunay Triangulation edges to find the matching pairs between feature points in overlapping images. The most "useful" matching points that belong to the background are used to find the global transformation parameters using the projective invariant. Finally, intentional motion of the camera is accumulated for correction by Sage-Husa adaptive filtering. Experiment results illustrate that the proposed algorithm is applied to the aerial captured video sequences with various dynamic scenes for performance demonstrations.
