320 cephalometric roentgenograms of 25 boys and 15 girls which was longitudinally taken from the age 6.5 to 13.5 have been analyzed to access the angular growth changes of the mandible. The statistical analysis of the results allowed the following conclusions. 1. Gonial angle was reduced with ageing. 2. Chin angle was reduced with ageing. 3. Occlusal plane to mandibular plane angle was relatively stable. 4. Lower incisor to occlusal plane angle was reduced and showed the greatest variability.

In this paper, a new size-reduction approach for branch-line coupler is introduced which uses parallel end-shorted coupled lines with lumped capacitors. The characteristic of the new design was analyzed using even-odd mode method, and simulated on HFSS before fabricated on the FR4 epoxy glass cloth copper-clad plat (CCL) PCB substrate at center frequency of 1 GHz. The electrical length of transmission line was reduced to 15 degrees, therefore the size of branch-line coupler was largely reduced approximately maintaining the same characteristic around the stable center frequency. The insertion loss of the branch-line coupler filter was -4.39 dB. The size of the overall hybrid is $20mm{\times}20mm$. Measurements results were well agreed with the simulated ones.

A new approximation method is proposed for the linear model reduction of high order dynamic systems. This mehtod is based upon the denominator table(D-table) and time moment-matching technique. The denominator table(D-table) is used to obtain the denominator polynomial of reduced-order model, and the numerator polynomial is obtained by time moment-matching method. This proposed method does not require the calculation of the alpha-beta expansion and reciprocal transformation which should be calculadted by Routh approximation method. The advantages of the proposed method are that it is computationally every attractive better than Routh approximation method and the reduced model is stable Il the original system is stable.

The effect of oxidation-reduction heating conditions on coating adherence of hot-dip galvanized steel containing silicon has beeninvestigated. The presence of a stbke sillicon oxide formed on the steel surface has been shown to be very detrimenal to proper wetting by liquid zinc. When the steel has more than the critical sillicon content neeled to from a stable external oxide, the use of oxidation-reduction method has been found successful in obtaining a good quality, coated product with excellence adhreence. This can be explained by the formation of an iron oxide. The iron oxrtion of the scale is reduced, leaving the stable oxides dispersed in a fresh metallic iron surface layer. This reduced iron surface is easily wetted by the liquid zinc and excellent adherence is obtained.

Electrolyzed reduced water was known as an alkaline solvent than piped water, natural water and mineral water etc. By means of reduction property, electrolyzed reduced water could dissolve a solute than other kinds of water without chemicals. In this study, serpentine dissolution in electrolyzed reduced water was investigated as a novel pre-treatment of serpentine which was a minerals for carbon dioxide sequestration. The elements (Ca, Si, Mg etc.) of serpentine were dissolved rapidly at early in the dissolvation then after some minutes the solubilities of serpentine elements showed stable state without abrupt changes. In spite of serpentine elements dissolution, chemical bondings and crystallographic structure of serpentine were not changed. It was explained that the dissolution mechanism of serpentine occurred from surface in electrolyzed reduced water and bulk structure sustained without collapse.

Tall buildings are prone to wind-induced vibrations due to their slenderness whereby peak structural accelerations may be higher than the recommended maximum value. The common countermeasure is the installation of a tuned mass damper (TMD) near the highest occupied floor. Due to the extremely large modal mass of tall buildings and because of the narrow to broad band type of wind excitation the TMD mass may become inacceptable large - in extreme cases up to 2000 metric tons. It is therefore a need to develop more efficient TMD concepts which provide the same damping to the building but with reduced mass. The adaptive TMD concept described in this paper represents a solution to this problem. Frequency and damping of the adaptive TMD are controlled in real-time by semi-active oil dampers according to the actual structural acceleration. The resulting enhanced TMD efficiency allows reducing its mass by up to 20% compared to the classical passive TMD. The adaptive TMD system is fully fail-safe thanks to a smart valve system of the semi-active oil dampers. In contrast to active TMD solutions the adaptive TMD is unconditionally stable and its power consumption on the order of 1 kW is negligible small as controllable oil dampers are semi-active devices. The adaptive TMD with reduced mass, stable behavior and lowest power consumption is therefore a preferable and cost saving damping tool for tall buildings.

In this paper, a robust reduced order adaptive controller is proposed based on Internal Model Control(IMC) structure for stochastic linear stable systems. The concept of gain margin is utilized to make the adaptive IMC controller robust. We prove the stability of the proposed adaptive IMC system for stable plants under the assumption that upper bounds for system orders are known. Simulation results show that the proposed method has good performance and stability robustness.

A solution for Nevanlinna-Pick interpolation problem with low complexity is constructed via non-recursive method. More precisely, a stable rational function satifying the given interpolation data in the complex right half plane is found by solving a homogeneous interpolation problem related to a minial interpolation problem for the given data in the right half plane together with its mirror-image data.

In order to control the transient torsional vibration of rotational shaft system, the torsional stiffness of it has been taken into account in modelling the plant. In this paper the observer and controller has been designed in two ways. One is to consider the torsional stiffness and the other is to idealize the rotational shaft as rigid body. The third order observer considering torsional stiffness shows stable response on computer simulation. When the observer is designed on assumption of the rotational shaft being rigid body, the reduced order observer shows stable response whereas the full order observer shows unstable response.

In this paper, it is proposed to improve the robustness of the Fast Recursive Least Squarea(FRLS) algolithms with the exponential weighting, which is an important class of algolithms for adaptive filtering. It is well known that the FRLSalgolithm is numerically unstable with exponential weighting factor λ<1. However, introducing some gains into this algolithms, numerical errors can be reduced. An accurately choice of thegains then leads to a numerically stable FRLS algolithm with a complexity of 8m mulitiplications and we shown it by computer simulations.
