The electronic properties of Cu or Pd-doped GaN at several concentrations are examined using the full-potential linear muffin-tin orbital method. For ($Cu_{0.055}Ga_{0.945}$)N, the model reveals a magnetic moment of $1.47{\mu}B$ per supercell. The range of concentrations that are spin-polarized should be restricted within narrow limits. A paramagnetic to ferromagnetic phase transition is found to occur at a Cu concentration of 5.55%.

CXC chemokine receptor 2 (CXCR2) is a prominent chemokine receptor on neutrophils and it regulates the neutrophilic inflammation in the lung diseases. CXCR2 antagonist may reduce the neutrophil chemotaxis and alter the inflammatory response. Hence, in the present study, ligand based Comparative Molecular Similar Indices Analysis (CoMSIA) was performed on a series of CXCR2 antagonist named pyrimidine-5-carbonitrile-6-alkyl derivatives. The optimum CoMSIA model was obtained with statistically significant cross-validated coefficients ($q^2$) of 0.582 and conventional coefficients ($r^2$) of 0.987 with steric, electrostatic, hydrophobic, donor and acceptor fields. The contour maps suggest the important structural modifications and this study can be used to guide the development of potent CXCR2 antagonist.

Structural damage detection, damage localization and severity estimation of jacket platforms, based on calculating modal strain energy is presented in this paper. In the structure, damage often causes a loss of stiffness in some elements, so modal parameters; mode shapes and natural frequencies, in the damaged structure are different from the undamaged state. Geometrical location of damage is detected by computing modal strain energy change ratio (MSECR) for each structural element, which elements with higher MSECR are suspected to be damaged. For each suspected damaged element, by computing cross-modal strain energy (CMSE), damage severity as the stiffness reduction factor -that represented the ratios between the element stiffness changes to the undamaged element stiffness- is estimated. Numerical studies are demonstrated for a three dimensional, single bay, four stories frame of the existing jacket platform, based on the synthetic data that generated from finite element model. It is observed that this method can be used for damage detection of this kind of structures.

기후변화는 홍수나 가뭄과 같은 극한사상의 발생가능성을 증가시키게 됨과 동시에 하천유량, 홍수, 수질, 생태, 지하수, 농업, 융설, 수력발전 등 수자원 전반에 걸쳐 영향을 미치고 있다. 이 중 홍수는 국민의 생명과 재산에 직접적으로 영향을 미치기 때문에 상당수의 국가들이 홍수로부터 자국민을 보호하기 위한 다양한 정책을 제시하고 있다. 이러한 정책을 수립하는데 있어서 무엇보다 중요한 것이 미래의 강수량이 기후변화로 인하여 얼마나 변하게 되는지를 정량적으로 평가하는 것이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 기후변화의 영향을 평가하기 위해서 프랑스 국립기상연구소에서 개발한 A1b시나리오 기반의 CNCM3모형을 대상으로 KNN기법과 일강수발생모형을 적용하여 기상청 산하 58개 관측소의 일 강수량으로 축소하였다. 제시된 일 강수량을 이용하여 2020s, 2050s, 2080s에 해당하는 80년, 100년, 150년, 200년 빈도의 확률강수량을 각각 산정하였다. 검토결과 확률강수량은 전국 58개 지점 중 49~52개 지점정도가 증가하는 것으로 나타나 현재에 비해서 전반적으로 증가하는 것으로 예측되었으며, 지점별 증가량의 경우, 빈도별로 차이를 보이기는 하나 현재에 비해서 전반적으로 3%~7%정도 증가하는 것을 알 수 있었다.

OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) scheme can compensate for distortions caused by multipath delay spread and reduce the burst errors caused by the Doppler effect since OFDM signals have long symbol durations. However, OFDM is required to be improved for high speed data transmission and large capacity. Therefore, coding schemes should be combined with OFDM. In this paper, it was studied that the performance of OFDM transmission scheme was improved in mobile communication channel by applying TCM, which has advantages of error correction and bandwidth efficiency. Simulation was carried out for two TCM models with different code efficient length. By mapping two models to square 16QAM, the model with the code efficient length of 2 achieved 3dB better than the other for the BER of 10/sub -3/. In conclusion, if we want to achieve a better performance with TCNA in OFDM applications, we should select a TCM with larger code efficient length.

There is clear pressing need to reduce bias field(Ha,) used on linear magenetomechanical resonator tag by at least a factor of two to allow low-bias operation near the frequency minimum since reducing Ha causes a dramatic increase in well depth, which implies increased stability. However, this makes it more difficult to maintain tight frequncy specs. It can be solved by a reduction of magnetomechanical coupling(k). We determined from an equivalent circuit model that optimal reduced, k, is near 0.3 Also, We determiend the material properties($lambda_s$, :saturated magenetostriction, $M_s$, and,$H_a$) that give k=0.3. From these evaluations, we suggested that on optimal comosition with adequate mathrial properties is $Fe_{55}Co_{15}Cr_6Nb_2B_{18}Si_4$.

This paper provides an analysis of the transient behaviour of a right-angled bent cantilever beam subjected to a suddenly applied force at its tip perpendicular to its plane. Based on a rigid, perfectly plastic material model, a double-hinge mechanism is required to complete the possible deformation under a rectangular force pulse (constant force applied for a finite duration) with a four-phase response mode. The kinematics of the various response phases are described and the partitioning of the input energy at the plastic hinges during the motion is evaluated.

The aim of this paper is to model North Korea and USA relationship since past until now. To this end, we have used game theory. The weakness of the existing models is that they have a static nature and can't analyze the changes of processes, strategies and results. The dynamic system of strategic games of which we have used in this article is a proper method to solve this problem. We have shown that South Korea and China play an important role in resolving the crisis.

Ethyl acetate (EA) soluble fraction of the Berberis amurensis (Berberidaceae) methanol extract showed the potent DPPH radical scavenging activity through Caenorhabditis elegans model system. The EA fraction was measured for the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, and oxidative stress tolerance by using C. elegans along with reactive oxygen species (ROS) level. In addition, SOD-3 expression was conducted using a transgenic strain (CF1553) to confirm that the regulation of the stress response gene is responsible for the increased stress tolerance of C. elegans treated by the EA fraction. As a result, the EA soluble fraction of B. amurensis increased SOD and catalase activity, and decreased ROS accumulation in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, the EA fraction-treated CF1553 worm showed higher SOD-3::GFP intensity than the control worm.
