  • Anti-allergic and anti-inflammatory actions of the water extract from Cimicifuga heracleifolia were evaluated in mice and rats. Several criteria were employed to assess the anti-allergic and anti-inflammatory actions of Cimicifuga heracleifolia, such as hyaluronidase activity, mediators-induced vascular permeability changes, 48 hour homologous passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA) histamine release from mast cells, and the carrageenan-induced rat paw edema. To further characterize the active components, the water extract was either extracted with organic solvent or fractionated according to molecular weight, and each fraction was tested for some of anti-allergic parameters. Hyaluronidase activities, both in activating and in activated states, were significantly inhibited by the water extract of Cimicifuga heracleifolia and by some of its subfractions, molecular weight less than 1,000. The water extracts (50~400 mg/kg) significantly inhibited 48 hr homologous PCA and vascular permeability changes induced by chemical mediators (histamine, serotonin, and leukotriene $C_4$) in mice. In the case of histamine-induced vascular permeability changes, more extensive studies were conducted; water extract was either fractionated according to molecular weight or extracted with butanol. Anti-histamine actions were observed only from the water layer, and these active components were of the molecular weight less than 1,000. These anti-allergic actions were observed mainly from mice than from rats. On the other hand, anti-inflammatory actions of the water extract from Cimicifuga heracleifolia were significant in rats.

  • 차량 내부에는 조명 변화, 부분적인 가림 및 운전자의 상태 변화와 같은 제한되지 않은 조건들이 존재한다. 본 논문에서는 비 제약적인 차량 환경에서의 운전자 얼굴 인증 시스템을 제안한다. 제안한 방법은 차량 내부 및 외부의 조명 변화에 따라 발생하는 얼굴 이미지의 변화를 최소화하기 위해서 근적외선(NIR) 카메라를 사용한다. 특히 정면에서의 강한 빛에 노출된 얼굴 이미지를 처리하기 위해서, 학습 이미지의 평균과 분산을 사용하여 정상적인 얼굴 이미지로부터 빛에 과다하게 노출된 이미지로 변환하여 사용한다. 따라서 정상적인 조명에서의 얼굴 분류기와 강한 정면광에서의 얼굴 분류기를 각각 동시에 만들어진다. 제안하는 얼굴 분류기는 얼굴 랜드마크를 추출하고 각 랜드마크의 신뢰도 점수를 합산하여 얼굴을 최종적으로 식별한다. 특히 각 랜드마크를 인식하여 부분적인 얼굴 가림에 강하기 때문에 안경이나 선글라스를 착용하는 상황에서도 높은 성능 향상이 가능하다. 즉 가려지지 않은 남은 랜드마크의 점수를 사용하여 운전자를 인식할 수 있다. 또한 등록 운전자와 미등록 운전자 간의 관계를 고려한 새로운 인식 거부 방법과 새로운 평가 방법을 논문에서 제안한다. 자체 취득한 데이터 셋, 공인된 PolyU 및 ORL 데이터 셋으로 실험한 결과 제안한 방법이 효과적임을 확인할 수 있었다.

  • With changes in insulated defects, the environment, and so on, new partial discharge (PD) data are highly different from the original samples. It leads to a decrease in on-line recognition rate. The UHF signal and pulse current signal of four kinds of typical artificial defect models in gas insulated switchgear (GIS) are obtained simultaneously by experiment. The relationship map of ultra-high frequency (UHF) cumulative energy and its corresponding apparent discharge of four kinds of typical artificial defect models are plotted. UHF cumulative energy and its corresponding apparent discharge are used as inputs. The support vector machine (SVM) incremental method is constructed. Examples show that the PD SVM incremental method based on simulated annealing (SA) effectively speeds up the data update rate and improves the adaptability of the classifier compared with the original method, in that the total sample is constituted by the old and new data. The PD SVM incremental method is a better pattern recognition technology for PD on-line monitoring.

  • Alcohol consumption triggers toxic effect to organs and tissues in the human body. The risks are essentially thought to be related to ethanol content in alcoholic beverages. The identification of ethanol in blood samples requires rapid, minimal sample handling, and non-destructive analysis, such as Raman Spectroscopy. This study aims to apply Raman Spectroscopy for identification of ethanol in blood samples. Silver nanoparticles were synthesized to obtain Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) spectra of blood samples. The SERS spectra were used for Partial Least Square (PLS) for determining ethanol quantitatively. To apply PLS method, $920{\sim}820cm^{-1}$ band interval was chosen and the spectral changes of the observed concentrations statistically associated with each other. The blood samples were examined according to this model and the quantity of ethanol was determined as that: first a calibration method was established. A strong relationship was observed between known concentration values and the values obtained by PLS method ($R^2=1$). Second instead of then, quantities of ethanol in 40 blood samples were predicted according to the calibration method. Quantitative analysis of the ethanol in the blood was done by analyzing the data obtained by Raman spectroscopy and the PLS method.

  • 최근 개발된 탄성파 공명산란이론에 기초하여, 원통형 유체산란체, 원통형 구멍 및 공명산란체의 문제에서 초음파탐촉자로 측정할 수 있는 응력 성분간 관계식을 유도하였다. 계산된 공명산란 응력부분파는 산란계수와 유사한 주파수 거동을 보이는데, 특히 공명주파수 근처에서 180°의 급격한 위상변화를 보인다. 유체 매질내 압력의 주파수 거동도 고찰함으로써, 탄성파 공명산란이론에 대한 이해를 증진하였다. 본 논문에서 연구되고 개발된 방법을 사용하면, 탄성매질 내의 유체개재물에 대한 비파괴평가의 신뢰성이 더욱 향상될 것이다.

  • For the assessment of changes in the bone architecture of the maxilla and mandible in renal osteodystrophy, 31 chronic renal failure patients who were undergoing hemodialysis therapy were selected. They were evaluated through clinical oral examination, radiographic and biochemical examination. The results were as follows: 1. In 17 cases (54.8%), there were evidences of bony change in jawbone. 2. The most common dental radiographic finding was decreased bone density (14 cases, 45.2%). 3. The second most common dental radiographic finding was total or partial loss of lamina alveolar dura (11 cases, 35.5%). 4. The third most common dental radiographic finding was total or partial loss of inferior canal wall (8 cases, 25.8%). 5 cases showed evidences of bony change only in jawbone, and 5 cases only in hand, and 12 cases in both. 6. Serum creatinine, urea nitrogen and alkaline phosphatase values in hemodialysis group were much higher than in control group. 7. There were statistically significant correlation between bone density and lamina dura, and inferior alveolar canal wall.

  • 본 논문은 집중 질량 구조물의 천이응답에 대한 시간영역 민감도 해석의 기본 개념을 설명한다. 외부 가진에 따른 구조물의 응답에 미치는 설계변수 변화의 영향을 구하기 위해 시간영역 민감도 함수를 구하는 방법을 제시하였다. 시간영역에서 구조물의 설계변수 민감도는 1차 표준 민감도 함수와 백분율 민감도 함수를 통해 확인하였다. 이러한 민감도 함수와 그 계산은 설계변수에 대한 시스템 상태변수의 편미분에 의한 것이다. 또한, 직접 미분법에 의한 해석적 방법의 편미분 결과와 수치적 방법에 의한 결과를 비교하였다.

  • This study was performed to investigate the effects of tooth mobility and design of the direct retainer on the stress of supporting tissues in distal extension removable partial denture. Tooth mobility was simulated and four different types of direct retainer such as Alters clasp, I-bar clasp, wrought wire clasp, and Dalbo attachment were designed and stress on the support-ing tissues were measured and analyzed with straingauge method. The following conclusions were drawn from this study. 1. The stress revealed at the lingual side of alveolar bone of the abutment tooth in edentulous area was the largest. 2. The stress at the lingual side of alveolar bone of the abutment tooth in edentulous area was increased according to the increase of tooth mobility in I-bar clasp and Dalbo attachment. 3. The stress at the residual ridge crest was the great in Dalbo attachment on mobility 0, in I-bar clasp on mobility 1, and in wrought wire clasp on mobility 2. 4. There was little changes of stress according to the increase of tooth mobility at buccal and lingual side of the residual ridge crest and around the abutment teeth in dentulous area.

  • 본 논문에서는 부분 대역 잡음 재밍이 존재하는 직교성 비동기 FH-BFSK 통신시스댐의 성능을 분석하였다. 그리고 전체 확산대역에서의 재밍대역 비융인 $\rho$값의 변화할 때 처리이득에 따른 비트에러확률을 분석하였다. 분석결과를 수치해석과 SPW를 이용한 컴퓨터 시율레이션을 수행하여 성능을 평가하였다. JSR이 lOdB일 때 시스템의 SNR이 lOdB이하라면 높은 처리이득에서도 error floor가 발생하여 요구하는 성능을 실현할 수 없었으며 SNR이 12 dB이상에서는 $\rho$의 변화에 따라 요구하는 에러확률를 만족하는 처리이득이 달라짐을 알 수 있다.

  • Twenty six male Hanwoo (Korean cattle) carcasses were measured for pH, temperature and instrumental color changes of loins during 24 h post-mortem carcass chilling at $4^{\circ}C$ in the cooler. The average internal temperature of loins was about $5^{\circ}C$ after 24 h of chilling, and with the exclusion of those with an ultimate pH>6.0 (dark-cutters), the average pH value was 5.5. When all carcasses were considered for the partial correlation coefficient between color and pH, with the temperature effect excluded, CIE $L^*$, $a^*$ and $b^*$ seemed to be affected significantly by pH during chilling process (p<0.001). However, when carcasses with dark-cutting condition were excluded, the correlation coefficients were much lower. In contrast, when the partial correlation coefficients between color and temperature, excluding the effect of pH on them, were analyzed, the relationship between color and temperature did not change much after values of DFD (dark, firm, dry) beef were excluded. The results suggested that the known interrelationship of color and pH in chilled beef loins be mainly due to the influence of temperature on pH and color.
