This dissertation tried to analyze passenger behaviors after an accident with the possibilities of a variety of accidents open reflecting the phases of the times of increasing interests in safety of passengers as the use of means of transportation such as cars and airplanes is increasing. Because a lot of data on head-on collisions, broadside collisions and reverse side collisions have been gathered through lots of experiments and interpretations, I chose to study a relatively unfamiliar subject, dropping collision. For example, I tried to study passenger behaviors in seating position after a dropping collision in preparation for falling accidents due to recent frequently-occurring sinkholes, driver's carelessness or mechanical problems. I used MADYMO, passenger behavior interpretation program, and experimented with 2 meters high Drop Test device which I made in person to increase the reliability of the results. On the basis of these, I compared the real experiments with interpretations.

We experienced a case with meningioma showing false positive I-131 uptake. A 55-years old female patient underwent high dose (150 mCi) radioactive iodine therapy to ablate remnant tissue after total thyroidectomy for papillary thyroid cancer. in addition to intense tracer uptake in thyroid bed, there was mild but focal abnormal uptake in left frontal lobe of the brain on post-therapy I-131 whole body scan. Subsequent brain MR imaging showed single mass lesion in left frontal lobe and the mass was resected under the impression of brain metastasis of thyroid carcinoma. Pathologic report confirmed meningioma from the surgical specimen.

In this paper I examined the tangents to curves through the history of mathematics, expecially that of the Greek geometry and seventeenth century. The purpose of this examination is to show that the mathematical concept of curves is changed by the problems. And I analyzed the text books from the junior to high school. I found that the tangents which aretaught in junior school correspond to those of Greece, and the tangents in high school those of seventeenth century.

A Pd-SiC Schottky diode for detection of hydrogen gas operating at high temperature was explored. Hydrogen-sensing behaviors of Pd-SiC Schottky diode were analyzed as a function of hydrogen concentration and temperature by I-V and ${\Delta}I$-t methods under steady-state and transient conditions. The effect of hydrogen adsorption on the barrier height was investigated. Analysis of the steady-state kinetics using I-V method confirmed that the atomistic hydrogen adsorption process is responsible for the barrier height change in the diode.

The predominant type of buckling that I-steel concrete composite beams experience in the negative moment area is distortional buckling. The key factors that affect distortional buckling are the torsional and lateral restraints by the bottom flange. This study thoroughly investigates the equivalent lateral and torsional restraint stiffnesses of the bottom flange of an I-steel concrete composite beam under negative moments. The results show a coupling effect between the applied forces and the lateral and torsional restraint stiffnesses of the bottom flange. A formula is proposed to calculate the critical buckling stress of the I-steel concrete composite beams under negative moments by considering the lateral and torsional restraint stiffnesses of the bottom flange. The proposed method is shown to better predict the critical bending moment of the I-steel composite beams. This article introduces an improved method to calculate the elastic foundation beams, which takes into account the lateral and torsional restraint stiffnesses of the bottom flange and considers the coupling effect between them. The results show a close match in results from the calculation method proposed in this paper and the ANSYS finite element method, which validates the proposed calculation method. The proposed calculation method provides a theoretical basis for further research on distortional buckling and the ultimate resistance of I-steel concrete composite beams under a variable axial force.

c-Jun N-terminal kinases (JNKs) have a Janus face, regulating both cell apoptosis and survival. The present study focused on understanding the function of JNK in tumor development and the chemoresistance underlying JNK-mediated cancer cell survival. We identified an inhibitor of JNK1, an important regulator of cancer cell survival. Kinase assay data showed that JNK1-dependent c-Jun phosphorylation was inhibited by indirubin derivatives. In particular, indirubin-3-monoxime (I3M) directly inhibited the phosphorylation of c-Jun in vitro, with a half inhibition dose (IC₅₀) of 10 nM. I3M had a significant inhibitory effect on JNK1 activity. Furthermore, we carried out assays to determine the viability, migration, and proliferation of breast cancer cells. Our results demonstrated that cell growth, scratched wound healing, and colony forming abilities were inhibited by the JNK inhibitor SP600125 and I3M. The combination of SP600125 and I3M significantly decreased cancer cell proliferation, compared with either SP600125 or I3M alone. Our studies may provide further support for JNK1-targeting cancer therapy using the indirubin derivative I3M in breast cancer.

Processed foods containing pork fat tissue to improve flavor and gain economic benefit may cause severe issues for Muslims, Jews, and vegetarians. This study aimed to develop an indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (iELISA) based on a monoclonal antibody specific to thermal stable-soluble protein in pork fat tissue and apply it to detect pork fat tissue in heat-processed (autoclave, steam, roast, and fry) beef meatballs. To develop a sensitive iELISA, the optimal sample pre-cooking time, coating conditions, primary and secondary dilution time, and various buffer systems were tested. The change in the iELISA sensitivity with different 96-well microtiter microplates was confirmed. The detection limit of iELISA performed with an appropriate microplate was 0.015% (w/w) pork fat in raw and heat-treated beef. No cross-reactions to other meats or fats were shown. These results mean that the iELISA can be used as an analytical method to detect trace amounts of pork fat mixed in beef.

Purpose: To determine optimal imaging time for diagnostic I-123 whole body scan in the follow-up of patients with differentiated thyroid cancer(DTC), we compared the image quality of 6- and 24-hour images of the same subjects. Materials and Methods: Four hundred ninety-eight patients(M:F = 55:443, Age $47.6{\pm}12.9$ years) with DTC who had undergone total thyroidectomy and I-131 ablation therapy underwent diagnostic whole body scanning 6 hour and 24 hour after oral ingestion of 185 MBq(5 mCi) of I-123. Serum thyroglobulin measurement and ultrasonography of the neck were performed at the time of imaging. In 40 patients underwent additional I-131 therapy, post-therapy I-131 images were obtained and compared with diagnostic I-123 images. Results: In 440 patients(88.4%), 6- and 24-hour diagnostic I-123 images were concordant, and 58 patients(11.6%) showed discordant findings. Among 58 discordant patients, 31 patients showed abnormal tracer uptake on only 6-hour image, which turned out false-positive findings in all cases. In 12 patients with positive findings on only 24-hour image, remnant thyroid tissue(4 patients) and cervical lymph node metastasis(3 patients) were presented. Among 40 patients underwent additional I-131 therapy, 6-hour and 24-hour images were discordant in 13 patients. All 5 patients with abnormal uptake on only 6-hour image revealed false-positive results, whereas most of 24-hour images were concordant with post-therapy I-131 images. Conclusion: I-123 imaging at 24-hour could reduce false-positive findings and improve diagnostic accuracy, compared with 6-hour image in the follow-up of patient with DTC.

1bit full adder have 3 input (including carry_in) and 2 outputs(Sum and Carry_out). Because of 1 bit full adder's propagation delay. We usually use 4-bit binary full adder with fast carry, 74LS283. The 74LS283 is positive logic circuit chip. But the logic function of binary adder is symmetrical, so it can be possible to use it not only positive logic but also the negative logic. This thesis use symmetrical property. such as $C_{i+1}(\bar{a_i}\bar{b_i}\bar{c_i})=C_{i+1}{\bar}(a_i,\;b_i,\;c_i)$ and $S_i(\bar{a_i}\bar{b_i}\bar{c_i})=\bar{S_i}(a_i,\;b_i,\;c_i)$. And prove this property with logic operation. Using these property, the 74LS283 adder is possile as the negation logic circuit. It's very useful to use the chip in negative logic. because many system chip is negative logic circuit. for example when we have negative logic chip with 74LS283. we don't need any not gate for 74LS283 input, and just use output of adder(74LS283) as the negation of original output.
