A tissue biosensor was developed for the continuous determination of $Na^+$ channel blockers. The proposed sensor was applied to the determination of Na+ channel blockers in seaweed. It was found that $Na^+$ channel blocker content displayed seasonal variation; it was high from February to April and decreased thereafter (May - August). From these results the present proposed method may be used for high sensitive determination of $Na^+$ channel blockers contained in the seaweed organisms and environments. Therefore, it may be important to monitor $Na^+$ channel blocker content of seaweed throughout the year.

In this paper, a decision-directed expectation maximization (DEM) algorithm is proposed to improve the performance of channel estimation in OFDM-based cellular systems. The DEM algorithm enables a mobile station (MS) with multiple antennas, located at the cell boundary, to increase the performance of channel estimation using transmit data, without decreasing spectral efficiency. Also, DEM algorithm can apply fast fading without loss of channel estimation performance because that includes channel variation factor in a group. It is verified by computer simulation that the DEM algorithm can reduce computational complexity significantly while improving the performance of channel estimation in fast fading channels, compared with the expectation maximization (EM) algorithm.

By assuming a linearly graded depletion edge approximation in the intrinsic MOS region and by taking into account the mobility variation dependent on both lateral and vertical fields, a physics-based analytical model for a short-channel(n-channel) MOSFET is suggested. Derived expressions for the threshold voltage and the drain current of typical MOSFET is structures could be used in a unified manner for all operating range. The threshold voltage was calculated by changing following variables : channel length, drain-source voltage, source-substrate voltage, p-substrate doping level, and oxide thickness. It is shown that the threshold voltage decreases almost exponentially as the channel length decreases. In addition, the short-channel threshold voltage roll-off, the channel length modulation and the electron mobility degradation can be derived within a satisfactory accuracy.

Numerical analysis has been made on the heat transfer of two dimensional turbulent channel with a slat type blockage. Especially the effects of the height of slat and Reynolds number on the heat transfer characteristics of channel wall have been investigated. The methods of accelerating the convergence of the numerical solution of governing differential equation have been also examined. Line-by-line iterative method shows higher convergence rate than point-by-point iterative method for solution of both momentum equation and energy equation. The results show that the ratio of heat transfer coefficient of the wall near the blockage to that of the fully developed flow increase with increasing the ratio of blockage to channel height and decreasing the Reynolds number. These trends of variation of heat transfer coefficient with respect to the height of slat and Reynolds number agree with those of Sparrow's experiment on the pipe flow with slat type blockage.

A mathematical model of the hydrodynamic and heat transfer performances of two-phase flow (gas-liquid) in thin film region of micro channel is proposed. For the formulation of modeling, the flow of the vapor phase and the shear stress at the liquid-vapor interface are considered. In this work, disjoining pressure and capillary force which drive the liquid flow at the liquid-vapor interface in thin film region are adopted also. Using the model, the effects of the variations of channel height and heat flux on the flow and heat transfer characteristics are investigated. Results show that the influence of variation of vapor pressure on the liquid film flow is not negligible. The heat flux in thin-film region is the most important operation factor of micro cooler system.

This paper considers impulsive noise which produce burst error in high speed(approx.160Kbps) data transmission like ISDN(Integrated Servise Digital Network) using PSTN(Public Switching Telephone Network). To begin with, we obtains the transfer function of subscriber line to calculate the variation of bandwidth when the gain of receiver is fixed and channel capacity of non-gaussian channel in upper-and lower bound, and evaluates the transmission capability. In this paper compares channel capacity bounds which obtains when probability density function of impulsive noise is Laplacian distribution function with impulsive noise generated by waveform synthesier.

In the present study, the characteristic of flow distribution in the channel of a plate heat exchanger is investigated numerically. In order to accomplish the efficient and fast analyses of the flow characteristics in the channel, a semi-microscopic analysis has been performed using a porous media model. For semi-microscopic analysis using porous media, the flow resistance coefficients are obtained through the result of pressure drop in the experimental data. The results showed that the variation of mass flow rate, geometry and chevron angle strongly depend on the flow distribution in the channel. Particularly, the chevron angle is most important factor for uniform flow distribution.

Time averaged pressure distributions in a high-speed centrifugal compressor channel diffuser at design and off-design flow rates are investigated. Pressure distributions from the impeller exit to the channel diffuser exit are measured for various flow rates from choke to near surge condition, and the effects of operating condition are discussed. The strong non-uniformity in the pressure distribution is obtained over the vaneless space and semi-vaneless space caused by the impeller-diffuser interaction. As the flow rate increases, flow separation near the throat, due to large incidence angle at the vane leading edge, increases aerodynamic blockage and reduces the aerodynamic flow area downstream. Thus the minimum pressure location occurs downstream of the geometric throat, and it is named as the aerodynamic throat. And at choke condition, normal shock occurs downstream of this aerodynamic throat. The variation in the location of the aerodynamic throat is discussed.

A mesoscale channel was designed to observe the flame stabilization at low strain rate conditions (< $10s^{-1}$). At this condition, the behavior of partially premixed flame was explored by changing a channel size and the oxygen ratio in the oxidant. In this work, experiment is conducted for propane case and it was compared with methane case of previous one. Conclusively, it can be observed that the strain rate of flame extinction and starting point of oscillation were varied with oxygen ratio. Moreover we can understand the effects of enhanced oxygen ratio of oxidant and flame behavior at low strain rate conditions.
