An unstructured implicit Euler solver is parallelized on a Cray T3E. Spatial discretization is accomplished by a cell-centered finite volume formulation using an upwind flux differencing. Time is advanced by the Gauss-Seidel implicit scheme. Domain decomposition is accomplished by using the k-way n-partitioning method developed by Karypis. In order to analyze the parallel performance of the solver, flows over a 2-D NACA 0012 airfoil and 3-D F-5 wing were investigated.

The effects of various drugs on the alleviation of the symptoms of chemical bums were evaluated in mice to formulate topical antiblister preparations. After a chemical bum was induced on the mouse dorsal skin with 2-chloroethylethyl sulfide, the drug was applied on the disease site. The effectiveness of the drug was evaluated by determining blister size, necrosis score of skin and appearance of the chemical burns induced. It showed that steroids and aminoglycoside antibiotics had a tendency to protect skin cell, and antihistamines decreased the size of chemical bums. While oleaginous base resulted in deleterious effect, hydrophilic base didn't show a significant difference on the alleviation of the chemical burn symptoms compared to the control.

This paper aims to study the problem of combined harvesting of a system involving one predator and two prey species fishery in which the predator feeds more intensively on the more abundant species. Mathematical formulation of the optimal harvest policy is given and its solution is derived in the equiblibrium case by using Pontryagin's Maximum principle. Dynamic optimization of the harvest policy is also discussed by taking E(t), the combined harvest effort, as a dynamic variable. Biological and bioeconomic interpretations of the results associated with the optimal equilibirum solution are explained. The significance of the constraints required for the existence of an optimal singular control are also given.

The efficacy of Kohl-Chikni Dawa (KCD), a compound ophthalmic formulation of Unani medicine, to control cataract development was explored in rats fed 25% galactose with the diet for 6 months. When one drop of 3% KCD solution was applied (once and twice daily) in both eyes for 6 months in galactose-fed rats, a significant reduction of lens opacification was noticed. The morphological changes of the lenses were observed every month by slit-lamp biomicroscope. These results suggest that the local application of 3% KCD solution possesses anticataract effect in galactose-fed rats.

In this work, we propose a new mechanistic model for the treatment of helium behaviour which includes the description of helium solubility in oxide fuel. The proposed model has been implemented in SCIANTIX and validated against annealing helium release experiments performed on small doped fuel samples. The overall agreement of the new model with the experimental data is satisfactory, and given the mechanistic formulation of the proposed model, it can be continuously and easily improved by directly including additional phenomena as related experimental data become available.

A bioequivalence study of the $Kerola^{\circledR}$ intramuscular injections (Dongkwang Pharmaceutical Co., Korea) to the $Tarasyn^{\circledR}$ intramuscular injections (Roche Co., Korea), formulations of ketorolac tromethamine (KTR), was conducted. Sixteen healthy Korean male subjects were received each formulation at the dose of 30 mg as KTR in a $2{\times}2$ crossover study. There was an one-week washout period between the doses. Plasma concentrations of KTR were monitored by a HPLC method. AUC was calculated by the linear trapezoidal method. $C_{max}$ and $T_{max}$ were compiled from the plasma drug concentration-time data. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) revealed that there are no differences in AUC, $C_{max}$ and $T_{max}$ between the formulations. The differences between the formulations in these parameters were all far less than 20% (i.e., 3.65, 2.59 and 4.35% for AUC, $C_{max}$ and $T_{max}$ respectively). Minimum detectable differences (%) at ${\alpha}=0.1$ and $1-{\beta}=0.8$ were 12.87, 13.44, 20.62%, for AUC, $C_{max}$ and $T_{max}$, respectively. The 90% confidence intervals for these parameters were also within 20%. These results satisfy the bioequivalence criteria of the Korea Food and Drug Administration (KFDA) guidelines (No. 1998-86). Therefore, these results indicate that the two formulations of KTR are bioequivalent.

잎새버섯을 새로운 소득 품목으로 개발하고자 안정생산용 배지개발 연구를 위하여 참나무톱밥, 참나무칩, 미루나무톱밥 3종과 영양원으로 건비지, 옥수수피, 미강 3종을 혼합비율별 6처리로 시험을 수행하였다. 배지재료 및 배지조성별 이화학적 특성을 분석하고 재배 및 자실체 생산성을 조사한 결과는 다음과 같다. 배지재료별 pH는 참나무톱밥, 참나무칩, 옥수수피가 4.0~4.8, 건비지, 미강이 각각 6.6과 6.7로 나타났고, 미강은 조지방 함량이 17.1%로 높았으며, 질소함량은 건비지 5.2%, 미강 2.5%, 옥수수피 1.3% 순으로 나타났다. 공극률은 배지충진량 450 g이 500 g보다 높고 반대로 용적밀도는 낮은 경향이었다. 수분함량은 모든 처리구에서 59~62%, pH는 5.0~5.5으로 나타났고, 조지방 함량은 미강의 함량이 많은 T6(대조구)가 높고, 영양원이 비율이 높은 T5의 질소함량이 가장 높았다. 초발이 소요일수는 T1~T4가 10~11일이었으나 T6은 20일로 다소 지연되었고, T5와 T6의 450 g 처리구에서는 발생이 되지 않았다. 병당 수량은 배지량 450 g보다 500 g에서 전반적으로 높게 나타났고 혼합배지 중에서는 T1, T3, T4가 104~112 g으로 수량이 유의적으로 우수하였다. 그렇지만 병당 수량 편차는 T4의 변이계수가 9.6으로 가장 낮았다. 이상의 결과 T4의 배지조성(참나무톱밥 80%, 건비지 5%, 옥수수피 15%, v/v)이 초발이소요일수 10일로 대조구의 20일에 비해 10일 단축되었고 수량도 관행 대비 1.27 배 증수되어 적합배지로 선발하고, 이때의 배지의 이화학성은 pH 5.4, 조지방 2.4%, C/N율 74.3%, 공극률 74.3%, 용적밀도 $0.26g/cm^3$이었다.

Here, the axisymmetric free flexural vibrations and thermal stability behaviors of functionally graded spherical caps are investigated employing a three-noded axisymmetric curved shell element based on field consistency approach. The formulation is based on first-order shear deformation theory and it includes the in-plane and rotary inertia effects. The material properties are graded in the thickness direction according to the power-law distribution in terms of volume fractions of the constituents of the material. The effective material properties are evaluated using homogenization method. A detailed numerical study is carried out to bring out the effects of shell geometries, power law index of functionally graded material and base radius-to-thickness on the vibrations and buckling characteristics of spherical shells.

This paper deals with the lateral - torsional motion of bridges provided with external cables acting as dampers under the action of horizontal dynamic loads or of walking human crowd loads. A three dimensional analysis is performed for the solution of the bridge models. The theoretical formulation is based on a continuum approach, which has been widely used in the literature to analyze bridges. The resulting equations of the uncoupled motion are solved using the Laplace Transformation, while the case of the coupled motion is solved through the use of the potential energy. Finally, characteristic examples are presented and useful results are obtained.

A graded harmonic finite element formulation based on three-dimensional elasticity theory is developed for the structural analysis of 2D functionally graded axisymmetric structures. The mechanical properties of the axisymmetric solid structures composed of two different metals and ceramics are assumed to vary in radial and axial directions according to power law variations as a function of the volume fractions of the constituents. The material properties of the graded element are calculated at the integration points. Effects of material distribution profile on the static deformation, natural frequency and dynamic response analyses of particular axisymmetric solid structures are investigated by changing the power law exponents. It is observed that the displacements, stresses and natural frequencies are severely affected by the variation of axial and radial power law exponents. Good accuracy is obtained with fewer elements in the present study since Fourier series expansion eliminates the need of finite element mesh in circumferential direction and continuous material property distribution within the elements improves accuracy without refining the mesh size in axial and radial directions.
