BACnet is a standard data communication protocol especially designed for building automation and control networks. BACnet uses the Master-Slave/Token-Passing (MS/TP) protocol as one of its field-level networks. In this study, the performance of the BACnet MS/TP protocol is evaluated using an experimental model. The network performance is investigated and evaluated in terms of token rotation time and round trip time. The experimental results show that the performance of the MS/TP network is heavily influenced by the network traffic load, the assignment of MS/TP node address and the network configuration parameter called $N_{max_info-frames}$. Based on the experimental results, simple practical designing guidelines for BACnet MS/TP network systems are also proposed.

The focus of this study is placed on the reduction of springback in the separator plate which is one of main components of the MCFC stack. Firstly, the current design (round punch and die) is accessed using FEM to find out how much it springs back after the forming operation. In this study, the two kinds of modified designs are proposed in order to reduce the amount of springback. With the linear punch in the first modified design the amount of springback rather increased. In the second modified design of die with holes, the amount of springback decreased drastically due to the effect of compression at the die corner.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to determine the original source of Gwackhyang(藿香) newly. Methods : Compare the growing district, figure and etc. of Gwackhyang included in the books on herbal medicine with those of present. Results : 1. The growing district of Gwackhyang is south of China or southern place than China. 2. In the picture of the leaf of Gwackhyang, its end is round and it is similar to Mori folium or the leaf of Solanum melongena. 3. We can propagate it by planting a piece of stem. 4. At the Dynasty of the Sejong king, japan sent it 18 times for diplomacy present, and according to Sejongsillockzirizi(世宗實錄地理志), it was planted for the test one time. 5. Baechohyang, another name of Gwackhyang, is rhizome and root of Anisochilus carnosus according to Bonchogangmok(本草綱目). Conclusion : Provide a basis for these results, Gwackhyang in the books on herbal medicine means Pogostemon cablin. It is a mistake to use Agastache rugosa in GwackhyangJeonggisan(震香正氣散) etc. in Korea.

An integrated crypto engine for encryption and decryption of AES algorithm based on unified data-path architecture is efficiently designed and implemented in this paper. In order to unify the design of encryption and decryption, internal steps in single round is adjusted so as to operate with columns after row operation is completed and efficient method for a buffer is developed to simplify the Shift Rows operation. Also, only one S-box is used for both key expansion and crypto operation and Key-Box saving expended key is introduced provide the key required in encryption and decryption. The functional simulation based on ModelSim simulator shows that 164 clocks are required to process the data of 128bits in the proposed engine. In addition, the proposed engine is implemented with 6,801 gates by using Xilinx Synthesizer. This demonstrate that 40% gates savings is achieved in the proposed engine, compared to individual designs of encryption and decryption engine.

Oral melanin pigmentation is common in some races and ethnic groups. The gingivae are the most frequently pigmented intra-oral tissues. Melanin pigmentation is the result of melanin granules, produced by melanoblasts intertwined between epithelial cells at the basal layer of the epithelium. We present one case of melanin pigmentation of the gingiva of 26-year old female. Melanin depigmentation method is applying a 90% phenol solution to deepithelize pigmented areas, gingivectomy, epithelial abrasion, bone denudation, and split thickess flap. We chose epithelial abrasion using round diamond bur. The patient satisfies the result and have almost no pain and discomfort. But repigmentation potential must be noticed to patient.

The development of environmentally nontoxic or non-polluting antifouling additives that can be formulated in practical coating requires assay involving target organisms. Described here are the simple laboratory assays that have been developed using the barnacle, Balanus amphitrite, a common fouling organism found throughout temperate and tropical seas. One of the assays depends on synchronous year-round mass culture, the procedure for which is described, of nauplii larvae and cyprids larvae. The laboratory assays provided quantitative estimates of toxicity and settlement inhibition of the test compounds. Laurinterol (1), isolaurinterol (2), alpysinal (3), and aplysin (4) have been isolated from the Korean red alga Laurencia okamurae. Their structures were identified by spectral data in comparison with the literature data. Compounds 1-4 inhibited larval settlement of the barnacle B. amphitrite with EC$_{50}$ values of 0.18- 36 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml. Com-pounds 2-4 showed larval toxicity against nauplii of the barnacle B. amphitrite with 5-10 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml, while laurinterol (1) exhibited no toxicity at even 100 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml. Therefore, laurinterol was expected as a promising natural antifoulant.t.

Recently, Flat flame burners are hilighted in high-load burners. Our study contains flow field analysis of a flat flame burner. In this paper, We analyzed the direction and magnitude of the velocity in a round tile type burner with swirl angles, $10^{\circ},\;30^{\circ},\;50^{\circ}$. In the case of swirl angle $10^{\circ}$, because axial momentum is larger than radial momentum, Recirculation region was weakly developed. In the case of swirl angle $50^{\circ}$, Flow in front of the tile is distributed for radial direction. And Recirculation region is large. So, We expect that the radiation can be transmitted from tiles and the recirculation region may cause $NO_x$ reduction.

Assembly tasks are often performed by one robot with fixtures. This type of assembly system has low flexibility in terms of the variety of parts and the part-presentation the system can handle. This paper addresses assembly without fixtures using two-manipulator robot. An active method using force feedback is proposed for the peg-in-hole assembly in highly uncertain environment. Assembly states are defined as status having unique motion constraints and events are modeled as variation of the environmental force. The states are recognized through identification of the events using two 6-d. o. f. force/moment sensors. The proposed method is verified and evaluated by experiments with round peg-in-hole assembly.

Ultrasonic measurement is one of important technologies in the lift-time maintenance of nuclear poler plant. Ultrasonic inspection system is consisted of the operator, equipment and procedure. The reliability of ultrasonic inspection system is affected by its ability. The performance demonstration round robin was conducted to quantify the capability of ultrasonic inspection for in-service. The small number of teams who employed procedures that met or exceeded ASME Sec. XI Code requirements detected the piping of nuclear power plant with various cracks to evaluate the capability of detection and sizing. In this paper, the statistical reliability assessment of ultrasonic nondestructive inspection data using Monte Carlo simulation is presented. The results of the probability of detection (POD) analysis using Monte Carlo simulation are compared to these of logistic probability model. In these results, Monte Carlo simulation was found to be very useful to the reliability assessment f3r the small hit/miss data sets.

The compressive behavior up to failure of short concrete members reinforced with fiber reinforced plastic (FRP) is investigated. Rectangular cross-sections are analysed by means of a simplified elastic model, able also to explain stress-concentration. The model allows one to evaluate the equivalent uniform confining pressure in ultimate conditions referred to the effective confined cross-section and to the effective stresses in FRP along the sides of section; consequently, it makes it possible to determine ultimate strain and the related bearing capacity of the confined member corresponding to FRP failure. The effect of local reinforcements constitute by single strips applied at corners before the continuous wrapping and the effect of round corners are also considered. Analytical results are compared to experimental values available in the literature.
