Objectives Eucommiae cortex is one of the frequently used herbs for musculoskeletal disorders, with well-known anti-inflammatory effect. Meanwhile, powdered form of herbal drugs is more advantageous than decoction form, in that storing and taking is more convenient. Thus, the authors aimed to investigate whether the drying method affects the index compound level and anti-inflammatory effect of eucommiae cortex water extract. Methods Eucommiae cortex was extracted in distilled water at $100^{\circ}C$ for 3 hours, filtered, and then evaporated under vacuum. One half of the sample was freeze-dried at $-80^{\circ}C$. Another half of the sample was added with dextrin and then spray-dried at $180^{\circ}C$. To assess the possible change in index compound content, pinoresinol diglucoside was selected as the index marker. The content level of the index compound in various extract sample was quantified through high performance liquid chromatography. In addition, iNOS assay in LPS-induced RAW 264.7 cells was adopted to determine the anti-inflammatory effect of various extract samples. Furthermore, MTT assay was performed to confirm that the result of iNOS assay was not due to cytotoxicity. Results There was no significance difference in index compound content between extract samples obtained through two different drying methods. Anti-inflammatory activity of extract samples were similar at the matching concentration, regardless of the drying methods. Extract samples did not show any significant cytotoxicity. Conclusions Extract samples of eucommiae cortex were obtained through freeze-drying and spray-drying. Neither change in index compound content nor difference in anti-inflammatory activity was observed between drying methods.

A novel structural damage detection method with a new damage index has been recently proposed by the authors based on the statistical moments of dynamic responses of shear building structures subject to white noise ground motion. The statistical moment-based damage detection (SMBDD) method is theoretically extended in this paper with general application. The generalized SMBDD method is more versatile and can identify damage locations and damage severities of many types of building structures under various external excitations. In particular, the incomplete measurements can be considered by the proposed method without mode shape expansion or model reduction. Various damage scenarios of two general forms of building structures with incomplete measurements are investigated in consideration of different excitations. The effects of measurement noise are also investigated. The damage locations and damage severities are correctly identified even when a high noise level of 15% and incomplete measurements are considered. The effectiveness and versatility of the generalized SMBDD method are demonstrated.

A novel hybrid carrier-based pulse width modulation (CBPWM) scheme that combines unipolar and dipolar modulations is proposed for single-phase three-level rectifiers, which are widely applied in railway traction drive systems. The proposed CBPWM method can satisfy the volt-second balancing principle in the complete modulation index region through overmodulation compensation. The modulation scheme features two modulation modes: unipolar and dipolar. The operation range limits of these modulation modes can be modified by changing the separation coefficient. In comparison with the traditional unipolar CBPWM, the proposed hybrid CBPWM scheme can provide advantageous features, such as lower high-order harmonic distortion of the line current and better utilization of switching frequency. The separation coefficient value is optimized to achieve the maximum utilization of these advantages. The experimental results verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed hybrid CBPWM scheme.

Due to the deterioration of water supply network and the deficiency of raw water, the water utility of local governments have performed various projects to improve their revenue water ratio. However, it is very difficult to estimate the cost for maintaining the revenue water ratio at higher level after completing the project, because local governments have different conditions affecting the operating and maintenance cost of water supply network. The purpose of this study is to present a procedure to estimate the operating and maintenance cost required to maintain the target revenue water ratio of the water supply network. For this purpose, we estimated the cost used only for operation and maintenance of water supply network of 164 local governments with the aid of K-Mean Clustering Analysis and the data from 40 representative local governments. Then, the regression analysis was performed to find relationship between revenue water ratio and the operating and maintenance cost with two different data sets generated by two classification methods; the first method classifies the local governments by means of k-means clustering, and the other classifies the local governments according to the index standardized by the operating and maintenance cost per unit length of water mains per revenue water ratio. The results shows that the method based on the index standardized by the cost and revenue water ratio of each government produces more reliable results for finding regression equations between revenue water ratio and the operating and maintenance cost only for water supply network. The estimated regression equations for each group can be used to estimate the cost required to keep the target revenue water ratio of the local government.

본 연구는 기존 정성적/평면적으로만 다뤄왔던 간선도로의 망기능을 입체적/정량적으로 분석하기 위하여 새롭게 정의한 네트워크(network)과 네트워킹(networking)에 입각한 망기능 분석방법론을 제시하고, 실제 간선도로망에 적용하여 망기능을 분석하였다. 이를 위해 간선도로 네트워크를 상부도로인 고속국도와 이와 연계된 하부도로(일반국도, 지방도, 도시부도로 등) 간을 입체적 관점에서 분석하였고, 기존의 물리적인 연결성 측면 외에도 교통정보 및 주행조건 등 운전자(이용자) 측면의 망기능을 고려한 세부기능지표(networking index, NI)를 도출하여, 망기능의 효율성을 정량적으로 평가할 수 있는 네트워킹 지수(networking rate, NR)를 산정하였다. 주요 분석결과로서, ITS 분야인 교통정보기능이 네트워킹 구성요소에 중요한 영향요소임을 입증하였다. 이는 기존에 물리적 연계 중심의 도로정비방안 도출보다 교통정보를 고려한 네트워킹 정비의 필요성을 보여준다. 그리고, 실제 고속국도 중심 간선도로 망기능을 분석한 결과로서 전국대비 수도권에서 낮은 망기능을 보이고 있는데, 상 하부도로 간 대체우회기능을 수행할 수 있는 구간기능과 교통정보기능이 상대적으로 떨어지는 것이 주요 원인으로 분석되었다.

Purpose: Burning mouth syndrome (BMS) is ambiguous and enigmatic oral condition. Sleep disturbance is one of the most prevalent complaints of patients with chronic pain. The aim of this study was to estimate general sleep characteristics and propensity in patients with BMS. Methods: A total of thirty BMS patients and thirty healthy control subjects were investigated. Self-reported measures of sleep quality were conducted using two widely used methods; the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS). Data were analyzed with one-way ANOVA, chi-square, Fisher's exact test, Kruskal-Wallis test, Holm method with 95% confidence interval and p<0.05 significant level. Results: BMS patients showed more poor sleepers than those in control subjects in both ESS and PSQI test. BMS patients also showed statistically significant poorer sleep quality compared with control subjects in both test. When BMS group were divided into three groups on the basis of numeric rating scale, the higher score subjects had, the more mean rank they had in the PSQI. Conclusions: BMS patients showed up poor sleep characteristics and propensity than control group, and they also showed the more severe the pain was, the worse the sleep quality was.

Four foreign pasture cultivars such as Lotus corniculatus cv. Maitland, Trifolium pratense cv. Deben, Lolium perenne cv. $S_{23}$ and .Dactylis glomerata cv. $S_{26}$ were tested with "Kwisan" series, a common upland soil in Southern part of Korea. The cultivars in single or mixture were grown in pot with two levels of light intensity, i.e. a full sun light condition and 50% interception. Dry matter yield of top and root and their seasonal changes, the number of tillers or branches per plant and finally competative effects of mixtures were evaluated by estimating the expected yield, relative yield totals and compensation index. The results are summarized as follows: 1. Maitland showed a significant decrease in dry matter yield in shade condition, but the number of branches of Maitland was higher than those of Deben. 2. Maitland showed higher dry matter yield than Deben during the mid-summer period, while $S_{23}$, showed higher dry matter yield than $S_{26}$ during early season. 3. Mixtures of $S_{23}$ and Maitland, and $S_{26}$ and Deben gave better response to grasses by increasing the number of tillers in shade condition. 4. Combinations of Lotus corniculatus cv. Maitland and Dactylis glomerata cv. $S_{26}$ and Trifolium pratense cv. Deben and Dactylis glomerata cv. $S_{26}$ gave higher relative yield totals and higher compensation index, which envisages that the pasture establishment rates can be enhanced when those mixtures were sown by the oversowing method in the upland soil where phosphate level is very low and infertile in general.n general.
