  • The effects of the Evodiae fructus on the cardiovascular function were assessed in spontaneously hypertensive rats, and isolated preparation of spontaneously hypertensive rats aortic strip. In spontaneously hypertensive rats, intraperitoneal administration of methanol crude extract of Evodiae Fructus (0.5mg/kg) lowered aterial blood pressure which lasted for at least 4 hours. The hypotensive effect of Evodiae Fructus was more stronger with ${\alpha}-adrenoreceptor$ inhibitor(Phentholamine) and it was not affected by ${\beta}-adrenoreceptor$ inhibitor(Propranolol). The hypotensive effect of Evodiae Fructus was abolished by NAME. It is suggested that the hypotensive effect of Evodiae Fructus may be concern with endothelium-derived relaxing factor and it may be mediated through NO synthesis. Evodiae Fructus showed a vasorelaxing effect on denude aortic strip. It is suggested that Evodiae Fructus has a direct relaxing effect on vascular smooth muscle cells. Judging from above results, it was proved that hypotensive effect of Evodiae Fructus. The mechanism of hypotensive action may be concern with endothelium-derived relaxing factor and direct relaxing effect on vascular smooth muscle cells. Therefore, it is suggested that Evodiae Fructus is applicable to hypertension.

  • This paper describes the cycle performance of heat-pump system using R-22 and R-290. Experiments were performed in the smooth tube with inside diameter of 10.07mm and outside diameter of 12.07 mm and grooved inner tube having 75 fins with a height of 0.25mm Condensing temperatures were held constantly between 318K and 328 K while evaporating temperatures were varied from 257 K to 288 K mass velocities from 51 to $280 kg/m^2s$. From the experiments it was known that the evaporating temperature and condensing temperature had more affected by the compressor shaft power than the tube geometries. Cooling capacity of the R-22 and R-290 had similar values in the smooth and grooved inner tubes. The coefficient of performance(COP) was calculated using the compressor shaft power volumetric refrigeration capacity compression ratio and cooling capacity. The COP of the R-290 had slightly higher values than that of R-22 The major parameters affecting the heat pump cycle performance wee the refrigerant proper-ties and operating conditions rather than the geometric shapes of the heat exchanger

  • We designed and implemented fish robots for various purposes such as autonomous navigation, maneuverability control, posture balancing and improvement of quick turns in a tank of 120 X 120 X 180cm size. Typically, fish robots have 30-50 X 15-25 X 10-20cm dimensions; length, width and height, respectively. It is essential to have the ability of quick and smooth turning to avoid collision with obstacles or walls of the water pool at a close distance. Infrared distance sensors are used to detect obstacles, magneto-resistive sensors are used to read direction information, and a two-axis accelerometer is mounted to compensate output of direction sensors. Because of the swing action of its head due to the tail fin movement, the outputs of an infrared distance sensor contain a huge amount of noise around true distances. With the information from accelerometers and e-compass, much improved distance data can be obtained by fuzzy logic based estimation. Successful swimming and smooth turns without collision demonstrated the effectiveness of the distance estimation.

  • The present study investigates effects of flow velocity on the convective heat/mass transfer characteristics in wavy ducts of a primary surface heat exchanger application. Local heat/mass transfer coefficients on the wavy duct sidewall are determined by using a naphthalene sublimation technique. The flow visualization technique is used to understand the overall flow structures inside the duct. The aspect ratio and corrugation angle of the wavy duct is fixed at 7.3 and 145$^{\circ}$ respectively, and the Reynolds numbers, based on the duct hydraulic diameter, vary from 100 to 5,000. The results show that there exist complex secondary flows and transfer processes resulting in non-uniform distributions of the heat/mass transfer coefficients on the duct side walls. At low Re (Re<1000), relatively high heat/mass transfer regions like cell shape appear on both pressure and suction side wall due to the secondary vortex flows called Taylor-Gortler vortices perpendicular to the main flow direction. However, at high Re (Re>1000), these secondary flow cells disappear and boundary layer type flow characteristics are observed on pressure side wall and high heat/mass transfer region by the flow reattachment appears on the suction side wall. The average heat/mass transfer coefficients are higher than those of the smooth circular duct due to the secondary flows inside wavy duct. And also friction factors are about two times greater than those of the smooth circular duct.

  • Mobile IP has been designed only to maintain communication as they move form place to place, so it doesn't guarantee Quality of Service(QoS). QoS in mobile IP is important to provide multimedia and real-time applications services in mobile, and it is closely related to handoff delay. Therefore, handoff delay problem is actively studied to guarantee QoS as a main issue in mobile IP research area Next generation Mobile IPv6 resolve this problem somewhat, triangle problem for first packet and handoff delay still remain. In this paper, we suggest SNMP Information-based routing that adds keyword management method to Information-based routing in active network in order to resolve such a problem, and then suggest QoS controlled handoff based on SNMP Information-Based routing. After modeling of suggested method and existing handoff method simulations we carried out with NS-2 for performance evaluation. The results of simulations show the some improvement on handoff delay, and therefore on QoS improvement.

  • Objective: The purpose of this study is to identify visual perception of and satisfaction with the orange peel effect of surface. The orange peel effect is a type of finish on painted or coated surface. Background: Gloss paint sprayed on a smooth surface (such as car body, smart phone, and electric home appliances, etc.) should also dry into a smooth surface. Then, a surface resembling the texture of an orange peel can be caused by some factors. The orange peel effect can degrade user's satisfaction with a product. Method: Visual perception and emotional satisfaction were subjectively evaluated using Likert scale. The significance of orange peel effect on visual perception and satisfaction were then analyzed by the analysis of variance. The correlation between visual perception and satisfaction was also analyzed. Results: Surface roughness significantly influenced visual perception and emotional satisfaction. The level of visual perception increased and emotional satisfaction decreased with the increase of orange peel effect. Emotional satisfaction decreased with the increase of visual perception level. Conclusion: It was identified that orange peel phenomenon on surface was a very important factor for emotional satisfaction. The orange peel effect on the surface of a product should be minimized to improve the emotional satisfaction of the product. Application: The result of this study can be applied to the texture design of the body of a car, smart phones, and electric home appliances, etc.

  • This paper deals with the micro-surface-cracks behavior on the unnotched smooth specimens of Type 304 stainless steel at $593^{\circ}C$ in air under creep and creep-fatigue conditions that have 10 mim and 1 min load holding times respectively. The behaviors of the micro-surface-cracks have been visualized by means of surface replica method and optical micro-photography. The quantitative characteristics of initiation, growth and coalescence of micro-surface-cracks have been investigated by observing and measuring the crack growth behaviors. some of the important results are as follows: Main crack initiates at grain boundary in the early stage(10 to 20%)of its life time and grows through coalescence and finally leads to fracture. The distribution of micro-surface-crack length, 2a, can be plotted against the composite Weibull distribution. The growth rate of the main crack can be plotted against the stress intensity factor, crack tip opering displacement and J integral.
