Chitosan (deacetylated form of chitin) possesses strong antibacterial activities such as antimicrobial effect, antifungal effect and the induction of plant defense response. Chitosan itself, however, has high molecular weight and viscosity as well as water-insolubility, These natures may restrict applications in various fields, especially in in vivo system. While the hydrolysates of chitosan, chitooligosaccharides (COS) are not only lower in the molecula. weight and viscosity, but also water-soluble. Thus, they would be expected more efficient absorption in vivo. Besides several documents have been reported antibacterial activities of COS against microorganisms (Kendra et al., 1989; Uchida et al., 1989). (omitted)

The optimum weight design of structure is to determine the combination of structural members which minimize the weight of structures and satisfy design conditions as well. Since most of loads and design variables considered in structural design have uncertain natures, the reliability-based optimization techniques need to be developed. The aim of this study is to estabilish the general algorithm for the minimum weight design of transmission tower structure system with reliability constraints. The sequential linear programming method is used to solve non-linear minimization problems, which converts original non-linear programming problems to sequential linear programming problems. The optimal solutions are produced for various reliability levels such as reliability levels inherent in current standard transmission tower cross-section and optimal transmission tower cross-section obtained with constraints of current design criteria as well as selected target reliability index. The optimal transmission towers satisfying reliability constraints sustain consistent reliability levels on all members. Consequently, more balanced optimum designs are accomplished with less structural weight than traditional designs dealing with deterministic design criteria.

Many simulation models have been built to facilitate simulation technique in designing, evaluating, and optimizing supply chains. Simulation is preferred to deal with stochastic natures existing in the supply chain. Moreover simulation has a capability to find local optimum value within each component through entire supply chain. Most of supply chain simulation models have been developed on the basis of discrete-event simulation. Since supply chain systems are neither completely discrete nor continuous, the need of constructing a model with aspects of both discrete-event and continuous simulation is provoked, resulting in a combined discrete-continuous simulation. In this paper, an architecture of combined modeling for supply chain simulation is proposed, which includes the equation of continuous portion in supply chain and how these equations are used in the supply chain simulation models. A simple example of supply chain model dealing with the strategic level of supply chain presented in this paper shows the possibility and the prospect of this approach.

To satisfy and respond quickly to customers' demand, many companies are now aggressively focusing on supply chain management in order to strengthen their competitiveness. The modeling and analysis of supply chain environment have been widely studied. This study is concerned with the development of supply chain simulator which deals with stochastic natures existing in the supply chain environment. We proposed the mathematical model for the efficient cost analysis and developed the supply chain simulator based on the proposed mathematical model with object-oriented language C++. The simple experiment which find the best combination of policies considering the whole cost shows the possibility and reasonability of the developed simulator.

An elastic plate bar jointed to a rigid bar is considered. The bar is subjected to uniform axial tension. A theoretical approximate solution is obtained in an infinite hyperbolic series form and some numerical results for various Poisson's ratios are presented. A rubber plate joined to a strong wooden plate has been tested to obtain an experimental data and the results are compared with theoretical ones. Two values for vertical displacements are in good agreement but it is not satisfactory for horizontal displacements. The conclusion arrived at are as follow : The natures of stress distributions and deformed shapes given by above theoretical solution are compatible in mechanical sense. The magnitudes of stress and displacement components would not be reliable for exact works. A sharp shear stress concentrations are detected at the both ends of the joint.

DLC is considered as the candidate material for application of moving parts in automotive components relatively in high pressure and temperature operating conditions for its high hardness with self lubrication and chemical inertness. Different deposition method such as arc plating, ion gun plating and PECVD were used for comparing mechanical and tribological properties of each DLCs deposited on stainless steel with 1 um thick respectively. Among these 3 types of DLCs, the arc plated DLC film showed highest value for wear resistance in dry condition. From the results of analysis for physical properties of DLC films, it seems that the adhesion force and crack initiation modes were more important factors than intrinsic mechanical properties such as hardness, elastic modulus and/or roughness to the wear resistance of DLC films. Raman spectroscopy was used for understanding chemical bonding natures of each type of DLC films. Typical D and G peaks were identified based on the deposition method. Hardness of the coating layers were identified by nanoindentation method and the adhesions were checked by scratch method.

This paper presents some important issues in modeling rock behaviour around an underground opening at depth which characterized as stress-induced fractural failure of rock. Unlike other conventional modeling approaches, stress-induced rock failure is highly complex process due to its own heterogeneous and discrete natures. Because of this complexity, many researchers has been struggled to mimic such processes as close as possible to reality with various approaches in both analytical, and numerical approaches for past few decades. Such approaches which are based on continuum mechanics, analytical fracture mechanics, and DEM(Discrete Element Method) were explored in this paper, and fundamental shortcomings for each approaches were illustrated here. In addition, DEM approach using $PFC^{2D}$(Particle Flow Code) was also implemented and illuminated in this paper and discuss the improvement and considerations for the future research.

Energy conversion systems such as power inverters and converters are basically significant in establishing photovoltaic power systems to enhance power effectiveness. This paper proposes a new converter control method by using the Lyapunov redesign approach. We construct the proposed control mechanism linearly composed of nominal control and auxiliary control laws. The former is generally designed through a well-known power electronic technology and the latter is implemented to compensate real-time control error due to uncertain natures of converter systems in practice. For realizing adaptive control capability in the proposed control mechanism, a control parameter vector is estimated by utilizing a steepest descent based optimization method. We carry out numerical simulation with Matlab(c) software to demonstrate reliability of the proposed converter control system and conduct a comparative study to prove its superiority by comparing with a generic converter control methodology.

The current study aims to 1) investigate how fashion is perceived in societies that utopian novels were born and 2) what fashion means in utopian worlds by content analyzing two utopian novels, Thomas More�s Utopia and William Morris�N ews from Nowhere. The analyses of More�s Utopia and Morris�s News from Nowhere revealed that both utopian societies made corrections from our (imperfect) societies to increase happiness of people. Dresses of those two utopian societies were described as comfortable, pleasant, and attractive. There was a difference in design in that More considered simple and natural designs as the best whereas Morris considered human processed, labor intensive designs as the most attractive. However, fashion did not exist in either utopian world. It is reasonable to say that utopian societies were anti fashion in general due to the conflicting natures of fashion and utopia.
