For NIR measurements of papers normally diffuse reflectance accessories are used which can provide a large sampling area. The in-line process control FT-NIR spectrometer MATRIX-E enables the contactless measurement of paper samples of low silicone coat weights on label-stocks in a paper converting factory. For this study concentrations of silicone between 0 and 2 g/$m^2$ on various paper substrates were included in a quantitative method. The aim was to achieve an absolute value for the deviation from the target value of 1 g/$m^2$ during continuous movement of the paper with velocities around 400 numinute. Influences from the uncoated paper type due to supplier, color, opacity, area densities, pre-coating as well as different compounds of the agent silicone were investigated and it was found that all these papers can be represented in one PLS-model. Especially the fact that silicone as an element is present in clay coated papers is of no consequence to the measurements with MATRIX-E. Moreover during in-line installations the variation of the moisture contents in the moving paper due to variable machine velocities as well as the reflecting material of the cylinder have to be considered. It is shown that the result of the in-line calibration has the same prediction ability compared to lab scale results(Root Mean Square Error of Cross-Validation RMSECV = 0.034 g/$m^2$).

The in-line process control FT-NIR spectrometer MATRIX-E enables the contactless measurement of paper samples of low silicone coat weights on label-stocks in a paper converting factory. For this study concentrations of silicone between 0 and 2 g/㎡ on various paper substrates were included in a quantitative method. The aim was to achieve an absolute value for the deviation from the target value of 1 g/㎡ during continuous movement of the paper with velocities around 400 m/minute. Influences from the uncoated paper type due to supplier, color, opacity, area densities, pre-coating as well as different compounds of the agent silicone were investigated and it was found that all these papers can be represented in one PLS-model. Especially the fact that silicone as an element is present in clay coated papers is of no consequence to the measurements with MATRIX-E.

Parallel Approaches using Cray T3E which is NIPP (Massively Parallel Processors) machine are presented for the efficient computation of the finite element analysis of 3-D shape rolling processes. D omain decomposition method coupled with parallel linear equation solver is used. Domain decomposition is applied for obtaining element tangent stifffiess matrices and residual vectors. Direct and iterative parallel algorithms are used for solving the linear equations. Direct algorithm is_parallel version of direct banded matrix solver. For iterative algorithms, the well-known preconditioned conjugate gradient solver with Jacobi preconditioner is also employed. Moreover a new effective iterative scheme with block inverse matrix preconditioner, which is named by present authors, is presented and its results are compared with the one using Jacobi preconditioner. PVM and MPI are used for message passing and synchronization between processors. The performance and efficiency of each algorithm is discussed and comparisons are made among different algorithms.

Let R be a ring with identity $1_R$ and let U(R) denote the group of all units of R. A ring R is called locally finite if every finite subset in it generates a finite semi group multiplicatively. In this paper, some results are obtained as follows: (1) for any semilocal (hence semiperfect) ring R, U(R) is a finite (resp. locally finite) group if and only if R is a finite (resp. locally finite) ring; U(R) is a locally finite group if and only if U$(M_n(R))$ is a locally finite group where $M_n(R)$ is the full matrix ring of $n{\times}n$ matrices over R for any positive integer n; in addition, if $2=1_R+1_R$ is a unit in R, then U(R) is an abelian group if and only if R is a commutative ring; (2) for any semiperfect ring R, if E(R), the set of all idempotents in R, is commuting, then $R/J\cong\oplus_{i=1}^mD_i$ where each $D_i$ is a division ring for some positive integer m and |E(R)|=$2^m$; in addition, if 2=$1_R+1_R$ is a unit in R, then every idempotent is central.

Osteoclasts are large polykaryons that have the unique capacity to degrade bone and are generated by the differentiation of myeloid lineage progenitors. To identify the genes involved in osteoclast development, we performed microarray analysis, and we found that carboxypeptidase E (CPE), a prohormone processing enzyme, was highly upregulated in osteoclasts compared with their precursors, bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMMs). Here, we demonstrate a novel role for CPE in receptor activator of NF-${\kappa}B$ ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclast differentiation. The overexpression of CPE in BMMs increases the formation of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP)-positive multinuclear osteoclasts and the expression of c-Fos and nuclear factor of activated T cells c1 (NFATc1), which are key regulators in osteoclastogenesis. Furthermore, employing CPE knockout mice, we show that CPE deficiency attenuates osteoclast formation. Together, our data suggest that CPE might be an important modulator of RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation.

In order to improve the performance of analysis, it is important to consider the nonlinearity in power system. The Carleman embedding technique (linearization procedure) provides an effective approach in reduction of nonlinear systems. In the approach, a group of differential equations in which the state variables are formed by the original state variables and the vector monomials one can build with products of positive integer powers of them, is constructed. In traditional Carleman linearization technique, the tensor matrix is truncated to form a square matrix, and then regular linear system theory is used to solve the truncated system directly. However, it is found that part of nonlinear information is neglected when truncating the Carleman model. This paper proposes a new approach to solve the problem, by combining the Poincar$\acute{e}$ transformation with the Carleman linearization. Case studies are presented to verify the proposed method. Modal analysis shows that, with traditional Carleman linearization, the calculated contribution factors are not symmetrical, while such problems are avoided in the improved approach.

In this study, a carbon nanotube (CNT) flexible strain sensor was fabricated with CNT based epoxy and rubber composites for tactile sensing. The flexible strain sensor can be fabricated as a long fibrous sensor and it also may be able to measure large deformation and contact information on a structure. The long and flexible sensor can be considered to be a continuous sensor like a dendrite of a neuron in the human body and we named the sensor as a biomimetic artificial neuron. For the application of the neuron in biomimetic engineering, an ANMS (Artificial Neuron Matrix System) was developed by means of the array of the neurons with a signal processing system. Moreover, a strain positioning algorithm was also developed to find localized tactile information of the ANMS with Labview for the application of an artificial e-skin.

The development of sustainable composites materials, from recycled polymeric materials and waste from the wood industry and stone processing, allows reducing the volume of these by-products, minimizing impacts on health and the environment. Nowadays, Polypropylene (PP) is the most recycled polymer in industry, while the furniture industry has increasingly used timber felled from sustainable forest plantations as a eucalypt. The powder tailing from the ornamental stone extraction and processing industry is commonly disposed of in the environment without previous treatment. Thus, the technological option for the development of composite materials presents itself as a sustainable alternative for processing and manufacturing industries, enabling the development of new materials with special technical features. The results showed that powder granite particles may be incorporated into the polypropylene matrix associated with short eucalyptus fibres forming green hybrid composites with potential application in structural engineering, such as transport and civil construction industries.

Most structures of vehicle are composed of many substructures connected to one another by various types of mechanical joints. In vehicle engineering, it is important to study these jointed structures under random frequency vibration for the evaluations of fatigue life and stress concentration exactly. It is rarely obtained the accurate load history of specified positions in a jointed structure because of the errors such as modeling, measurement, and etc. In the beginning of design, exact load data are actually necessary for the fatigue strength and life analysis to minimize the cost and time of designing. In this paper, the hybrid method of practical dynamic load determination is developed by the combination of the principal stresses from F. E. Analysis and test of a jointed structure. Least square pseudo inverse matrix is adopted to obtain an inverse matrix of analyzed stresses matrix. The error minimization method utilizes the inaccurate measured error and the shifting error that the whole data is stiffed over real data. The least square criterion is adopted to avoid these errors. Finally, to verify the proposed system, a heavy-duty bus is analyzed. This measurement and prediction technology can be extended to the different jointed structures.

고무복합재료에 대해 변형에 의한 결정화(SIC)가 기계적 특성에 미치는 영향을 연신율(${\lambda}$) 및 다중벽 탄소나노튜브(CNT)와 카본블랙(CB)의 함유량을 함수로 하여 연구하였다. 시차 주사 열량(DSC) 분석을 통해 CB 및 CNT의 함유량에 따라 결정화 정도가 증가함을 확인 하였다. 또한 연신율이 증가함에 따라 복합재료의 유리전이온도(Tg)는 증가하였고, 결정화 잠열 값(LHc)은 ${\lambda}$=1.5에서 최대값을 보였다. CNT의 함유량 증가에 따라 기계적 특성과 LHc는 비례관계임을 확인하였다. 열 중량 분석(TGA)을 통해 기지의 소실율은 94.3%였고, 복합재료의 소실율은 보강재의 함유량 증가에 따라 감소하였다. 인장탄성율 비는 고무 내의 CNT 배향으로 인장강도 비보다 높게 나타났다.
