To restrain contact failure, present study investigates the influence of edge machining of an indenter (punch). As for the edge machining, rounding, chamfering, and chamfering and rounding are considered. Contact mechanics is consulted to examine the traction profile and the size of the contact region which are directly influenced by the end profile of the indenter. The effect of rounding size (i.e., radius) in the case of the chamfering and rounding edge-indenter is studied. Shear traction is also evaluated within the regime of partial slip. Size of slip region and its expansion rate due to the increase of shear force are considered to investigate the shape effect of the indenter on contact failure.

The antiviral mechanism of KT5720 is known to inhibit the cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA), on the VSV infection in BHK-21 cell cultures. The virus inducted CPE (cell rounding) was almost completely suppressed by KT5720 at 5 uM. The inhibitor, however, did not affect the replication of the virus and the synthesis of viral macromolecules. Immunological studies showed the viral matrix (M) protein displayed intimate association with the cytoskeletal components and probably the cell rounding. KT5720, did not block the cytoskeletal disruption, while the cell rounding was suppressed. These observations suggest that the interaction between the viral M protein and the cytoskeletal components may not be enough to cause the morphological change of the cell. And, the KT5720-sensitive function may be involved in developing the VSV-induced CPE, but not essential for the virus replications.

In process of tube spinning far shock absorber on vehicles, the selection of feed rate and rounding radius of forming roller and revolution speed of tube and forming roller, forming gap between die and forming roller are very important factors to obtain the optimal process result. In this paper, rigid-plastic FEM and UBET analysis are applied to verify effect of each factors by forming load. We can obtain the optimal conditions to prevent defects during processing.

In this report, we propose a non-separable two-dimensional (2D) Lossless Wavelet Transform (LWT) for image compression. Filter characteristics of our proposed LWT are the same as those or conventional 2D LWT based on applying 1D LWT twice but our coding performance is better due to reduction of rounding effects. Simulation results confirm effectiveness of our proposed LWT.

We propose optical proximity corrections (OPCs) for digital micromirror device (DMD)-based maskless lithography. A pattern writing scheme is analyzed and a theoretical model for obtaining the dose distribution profile and resulting structure is derived. By using simulation based on this model we were able to reduce the edge placement error (EPE) between the design width and the critical dimension (CD) of a fabricated photoresist, which enables improvement of the CD. Moreover, by experiments carried out with the parameter derived from the writing scheme, we minimized the corner-rounding effect by controlling light transmission to the corners of a feature by modulating a DMD.

Recently nano meter size pattern (sub-micro scale) can be machined mechanically using a diamond tool. Many studies have found a 'size effect' which referred to a specific cutting energy increase with the decrease in the uncut chip thickness at micro scale machining. A new analysis method was suggested in order to observe 'size effect' in nano scale machining and to verify the cause of the 'size effect' in this study. The diamond tool was indented to a vertical depth of 1,000nm depth in order to simplify the stress state and the normal force was measured continuously. The tip rounding was measured quantitatively by AFM. Based on the measurements and theoretical analysis, it was verified that the main cause of the 'size effect' in nano scale machining is geometrically necessary dislocations, one of the intrinsic material characteristics. st before tool failure.

An FPU(Floating Point unit) is the principle component in high performance computer and is placed on a chip together with main processing unit recently. As a Processing speed of the FPU is accelerated, the rounding stage, which occupies one of the floating point Processing steps for floating point operations, has a considerable effect on overall floating point operations. In this paper, by studying and analyzing the processing flows of the conventional floating point adder/subtractor, multipler and divider, which are main component of the FPU, efficient rounding mechanisms are presented. Proposed mechanisms do not require any additional execution time and any high speed adder for rounding operation. Thus, performance improvement and cost-effective design can be achieved by this approach.

Previously, we reported induced expression of developmentally regulated CTP-binding protein 2 (DRG2) in fish cells at the late stage of rhabdovirus infection. To investigate the biological role of fish DRG2 (fDRG2), we transfected CHSE-214 cells with an expression vector containing complete fDRG2 fused to the N-terminal end of an enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP). Low level expression of fDRG2-EGFP did not induce morphological change or cell death. However, a high level expression of fDRG2-EGFP induced cell rounding and caused depletion of the cell population in FACS analysis. Several truncated fragments were fused to EGFP. FACS analysis was conducted to determine the presence of cells expressing high levels of the resulting chimera. While cells expressing a high level of N-terminus were detected, those expressing high levels of the C-terminal fragment 243-290 containing the G4 motif were absent in FACS analysis. Based on these observations, we propose that overexpression of fDRG2 may induce cell rounding, a representative cytopathic effect of virus-infected cells in the late stage of infection and the C-terminus of the fDRG2 is essential for this function.

In this study we are concerned with the problem of approximating a solution of a nonlinear equation in Banach space using Newton-like methods. Due to rounding errors the sequence of iterates generated on a computer differs from the sequence produced in theory. Using Lipschitz-type hypotheses on the second Frechet-derivative instead of the first one, we provide sufficient convergence conditions for the inexact Newton-like method that is actually generated on the computer. Moreover, we show that the ratio of convergence improves under our conditions. Furthermore, we provide a wider choice of initial guesses than before. Finally, a numerical example is provided to show that our results compare favorably with earlier ones.

A computer simulation model for investigating a two-dimensional (2-D) rounding mechanism in a centerless grinding process is described. This model includes the interference phenomena and the concept of machining elasticity. Since initial contact points are used as a reference, the result of this simulation is not affected by the location of the reference circle center and the radius of the reference circle. Also, details of the machining factor are studied by using process variables (grinding wheel speed, wheel specification, workpiece speed, dressing condition, etc.). The effect of the threshold grinding force on the size of ground workpiece is investigated. For the verification of this method, simulation results are compared with the experimental work.
