Angiomyolipoma of the liver is a rare benign tumor that's composed of variable mixtures of adipose tissue, smooth muscle and thick-walled blood vessels. We report here on the imprint cytologic features of a hepatic angiomyolipoma in a 47-year-old man. The smears showed spindle and epithelioid tumor cells in clusters, trabeculae and single cells. The spindle cells had elongated, cigar-shaped nuclei with finely granular chromatin and fibrillary cytoplasm. The epithelioid cells had round nuclei with a moderate amount of cytoplasm. Any adipose tissue was not found. Immunohistochemically, both the spindle and epithelioid cells revealed cytoplasmic positivity for smooth muscle actin and HMB-45.

One disadvantage of Glass Ionomer Cement Restoration is the difficulty in polishing. To find the appropriate polishing method, we polished the surface of Glass Ionomer Cement Restorations by 11 combination methods serially using disks shared with large-small particles and evaluated the polishing process in terms of surface roughness, surface roughness curve, and SEM findings. In addition, a visible light curing type bonding material was applied to evaluate the possible improvement in surface properties. The following results were obtained. 1. The disk surface of Glass Ionomer Cement was polished serially by disks with superfine particles, but it didn't become smooth. 2. The surface of Microfilled Composite resin became smoother as using a disk with finer particles. 3. When a visible light curing type bonding material was applied in finishing process, the surface of Glass Ionomer Cement became smooth as much as the applied matrix.

This paper develops a coordinated control strategy of the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) system based on repetitive control (RC) under generalized harmonic grid voltage conditions. The proposed RC strategy in the rotor side converter (RSC) is capable of ensuring smooth DFIG electromagnetic torque that will enable the possible safe functioning of the mechanical components, such as gear box and bearing. Moreover, the proposed RC strategy in the grid side converter (GSC) aims to achieve sinusoidal overall currents of the DFIG system injected into the network to guarantee satisfactory power quality. The dc-link voltage fluctuation under the proposed control target is theoretically analyzed. Influence of limited converter capacity on the controllable area has also been studied. A laboratory test platform has been constructed, and the experimental results validate the availability of the proposed RC strategy for the DFIG system under generalized harmonic grid voltage conditions.

The dynamic behavior of an automatic ball balancer (ABB) is studied considering the effects of gravity and angular velocity profiles. In this study, a physical model for an ABB installed on the Jeffcott rotor is adopted in order to investigate the effects of gravity and angular acceleration. The equations of motion for the rotor with ABB are derived by using Lagrange's equation. Based on derived equations, dynamic responses for the rotor are computed by using the generalized-o method. From the computed responses, the effects of gravity and angular velocity profiles on the dynamic behavior are investigated. It is found that the balancing of the rotor with ABB can be achieved regardless of gravity. It Is also shown that a smooth velocity profile yields relatively smaller vibration amplitude than a non-smooth velocity profile.

최근 유ㆍ무선이 혼합된 이동 네트워크환경에서 시간과 장소에 구분 없이 인터넷에 접속하기를 원하는 모바일 사용자의 요구는 증가되고 있다. 사용자에게 효율적인 서비스를 제공하기에는 멀티캐스트 전송 기술이 적합하다. IETF Mobile IP에서는 모바일 호스트에 멀티캐스트를 지원하기 위해 HA 기반인 Bi-directional Tunneling과 FA 기반이 Remote Subscription 기법을 제시하였다. 그외 MoM, RBMOM 및 MobiCast 프로토콜 등의 연구들이 이동하는 모바일 호스트에게 멀티캐스트를 지원하는 기법을 제안하였으나, 멀티캐스트 트리 재구성 및 핸드오프 등의 문제점은 여전히 남아 있다. 본 논문에서는 BS의 beacon 신호로 모바일 호스트의 이동성을 예측하여 Smooth-Handoff를 지원하는 기법을 제안하였다. 또한 BS의 패킷 트래픽 측정을 통해 중복 수신되는 패킷을 방지하여 신뢰성 있는 멀티캐스트 전송 서비스를 지원하는 기법을 제안한다.

A series of compounds, N-(2-substituted-1-carboxy)vinylazetidinones were successfully synthesized in order to test the hypothesis that biological activities of ${\beta}$-lactam antibiotics could be attributed to the smooth flow of electrons after a nucleophilic attack at the carbonyl carbon in the ${\beta}$-lactam ring. After introduction of aminothiazolylacetamido group at 3-position of the azetidinones, their biological activities were evaluated. Their low activities led to the conclusion that the smooth electron flow in ${\beta}$-lactams in not the sufficient source for the biological activities.

In the present study, we recorded CCh-activated nonselective cation (NSC) current in guinea-pig gastric smooth muscle cells and investigated the characteristics of the current. In whole-cell voltage-clamp mode, CCh activated NSC current. The same NSC current could be activated by internal dialysis of GTP${\gamma}$S.(omitted)

HAE-06 extract is a mixture of four medicinal plants, namely Lonicerae Folium et Caulis (Lonicera japonica), Scutellariae Radix (Scutellaria baicalensis), Adenophorae Radix (Adenophora triphylla var. japonica), and Polygonati Oddorati Rhizoma (Polygonatum odoratum var. pluriflorum). The HAE-06 extract demonstrated a concentration-dependent relaxing effect and enhanced cAMP production in bronchial smooth muscle that had been stimulated to contract with acetylcholine. Using a blocker, it was confirmed that the effect was through the β2-adrenergic receptor/cAMP/PKA pathway. In addition, it is thought that the HAE-06 extract has a bronchial smooth muscle relaxation effect by reducing the inflow of Ca²⁺ through the K⁺ and Ca²⁺ channels present in the sarcoplasmic membrane. If research continues in the future, it is believed that it will be possible to use it as a material for pharmaceuticals and functional foods.

The aim of this paper was to study the influence of the footing shape and the effect of the roughness of the foundation base on the bearing capacity of shallow foundations on rock masses. For this purpose the finite difference method was used to analyze the bearing capacity of various types and states of rock masses under the assumption of Hoek-Brown failure criterion, for both plane strain and axisymmetric model, and considering smooth and rough interface. The results were analyzed based on a sensitivity study of four varying parameters: foundation width, rock material constant (mo), uniaxial compressive strength and geological strength index. Knowing how each parameter influences the bearing capacity depending on the footing shape (circular vs strip footing) and the footing base interface roughness (smooth vs rough), two correlation factors were developed to estimate the percentage increase of the ultimate bearing capacity as a function of the footing shape and the roughness of the footing base interface.

Let $Y{\subset}{\mathbb{P}}^3$ be a degree d reduced curve with only planar singularities. We prove that $h^i({\mathcal{I}}_Y(t))=0$, i = 1, 2, for all $t{\geq}d-2$. We use this result and linkage to construct some triples (d, g, s), $d>s^2$, with very large g for which there is a smooth and connected curve of degree d and genus g, $h^0({\mathcal{I}}_C(s))=1$ and describe the Hartshorne-Rao module of C.
