Dynamic application lower mode response is of interest, however the higher modes of spatially discretized equations generally do not represent the real behavior. Some implicit algorithms, therefore, are introduced to filter out the high-frequency modes. The objective of this study is to introduce the P-method and PC ${\alpha}$-method to compare that with dissipation method and Newmark method through the stability analysis and numerical example. PC ${\alpha}$-method gives more accuracy than other methods because it based on the ${\alpha}$-method inherits the superior properties of the implicit ${\alpha}$-method. In finite element analysis, the PC ${\alpha}$-method is more useful than other methods because it is the explicit scheme and it achieve the second order accuracy and numerical damping simultaneously.

Recently, the demand for alpha imaging detectors for quantifying the distributions of alpha particles has increased in various fields. This study aims to reconstruct a high-resolution image from an alpha imaging detector by applying a super-spatial resolution method combined with the maximum-likelihood expectation maximization (MLEM) algorithm. To perform the super-spatial resolution method, several images are acquired while slightly moving the detector to predefined positions. Then, a forward model for imaging is established by the system matrix containing the mechanical shifts, subsampling, and measured point-spread function of the imaging system. Using the measured images and system matrix, the MLEM algorithm is implemented, which converges towards a high-resolution image. We evaluated the performance of the proposed method through the Monte Carlo simulations and phantom experiments. The results showed that the super-spatial resolution method was successfully applied to the alpha imaging detector. The spatial resolution of the resultant image was improved by approximately 12% using four images. Overall, the study's outcomes demonstrate the feasibility of the super-spatial resolution method for the alpha imaging detector. Possible applications of the proposed method include high-resolution imaging for alpha particles of in vitro sliced tissue and pre-clinical biologic assessments for targeted alpha therapy.

A new in-line method for sampling neutrons emitted in (${\alpha}$,n) reactions based on alpha particle source information has been developed for continuous-energy Monte Carlo simulations. The new method uses a continuous-slowing-down model coupled with (${\alpha}$,n) cross section data to precompute the expected neutron yield over the alpha particle lifetime. This eliminates the complexity and computational cost associated with explicit charged particle transport. When combined with an integrated alpha particle decay source sampling capability, the proposed method provides an efficient and accurate method for sampling (${\alpha}$,n) neutrons based solely on nuclide inventories in the problem, with no additional user input required. Results from several example calculations show that the proposed method reproduces the (${\alpha}$,n) neutron yields and energy spectra from reference experiments and calculations.

불균형 자료 분석에 대해서는 일찍이 Brown(1932)과 Yates(1934)의 연구 이에 Finney(1948), Stevens(1948), Henderson(1953), Kramer(1955)등 많은 사람들이 관심을 가지고 연구하였고 Searle(1971, 1977, 1981)은 R(v) 표기법으로 모형식의 상수적합에 의한 변동을 나타내었으며 Hocking과 Speed(1975), Speed와 Hocking (1976)이 사용한 제한들을 $\Sigma$ -, W-, O-restrictions라고 하였다. 또한 Speed등(1978)은 비가중평균법(method of unweighted means), 평균의 가중제곱법(method of weighted squares of means), 상수적합법 (method of fitting constants), Overall- Spiegel법, Henderson방법 등을 비교설명하고 Burdick 등(1974)은 각 변동을 기하학적으로 해석하려 하였다. 백(1987a,1987b)은 SAS 팩키지에 의한 변동을 설명하였고 장(1988)도 Searle(1977, 1981)의 방법을 이용하여 가설검정과 변동을 검토한바 있다. 본 연구에서는 여러 가지 모형에 대하여 $n_{ij} > 0, 또는 n_{ij} \geq 0$ 인 경우에 변동계산과 W-, $\Sigma$-, O- 제한 조건하에서의 변동과 가설을 재조명해 보고져 한다.

By combining the classical Newton's method with the pseudo-secant method, pseudo-secant-Newton's method is constructed and its order and rate of convergence are investigated. Given a function $f:\mathbb{R}{\rightarrow}\mathbb{R}$ that has a simple real zero ${\alpha}$ and is sufficiently smooth in a small neighborhood of ${\alpha}$, the convergence behavior is analyzed near ${\alpha}$ for pseudo-secant-Newton's method. The order of convergence is shown to be cubic and the rate of convergence is proven to be $\(\frac{f^{{\prime}{\prime}}(\alpha)}{2f^{\prime}(\alpha)}\)^2$. Numerical experiments show the validity of the theory presented here and are confirmed via high-precision programming in Mathematica.

Many reports have shown that the access pattern for geospatial tiles follows Zipf's law and that its parameter ${\alpha}$ represents the access characteristics. However, visits to geospatial tiles have temporal and spatial popularities, and the ${\alpha}$-value changes as they change. We construct a mathematical model to simulate the user's access behavior by studying the attributes of frequently visited tile objects to determine parameter estimation algorithms. Because the least squares (LS) method in common use cannot obtain an exact ${\alpha}$-value and does not provide a suitable fit to data for frequently visited tiles, we present a new approach, which uses a moment method of estimation to obtain the value of ${\alpha}$ when ${\alpha}$ is close to 1. When ${\alpha}$ is further away from 1, the method uses the associated cache hit ratio for tile access and uses an LS method based on a critical cache size to estimate the value of ${\alpha}$. The decrease in the estimation error is presented and discussed in the section on experiment results. This new method, which provides a more accurate estimate of ${\alpha}$ than earlier methods, promises more effective prediction of requests for frequently accessed tiles for better caching and load balancing.

This paper discusses the error propagation characteristics of the Newmark explicit method, modified Newmark explicit method and ${\alpha}$-function dissipative explicit method in pseudodynamic tests. The Newmark explicit method is non-dissipative while the ${\alpha}$-function dissipative explicit method and the modified Newmark explicit method are dissipative and can eliminate the spurious participation of high frequency responses. In addition, error propagation analysis shows that the modified Newmark explicit method and the ${\alpha}$-function dissipative explicit method possess much better error propagation properties when compared to the Newmark explicit method. The major disadvantages of the modified Newmark explicit method are the positive lower stability limit and undesired numerical dissipation. Thus, the ${\alpha}$-function dissipative explicit method might be the most appropriate explicit pseudodynamic algorithm.

Monocyte adhesion involves specific cell surface receptors, integrins and results in cell differentiation. We have studied expression and regulation of integrin .${\alpha}_5{\beta}_1$ during differntiation of U937 as in vitro model. To determine expression of integrin ${\alpha}_5{\beta}_1$ during differentiation of U937 as in vitro model. To determine expression of integrin ${\alpha}_5{\beta}_1$ genes by RT-PCR (reverse transcription and polymerase chain reaction) method. We determined expression of integrin ${\alpha}_5{\beta}_1$ genes by RT-PCE (reverse transcription and polymerase chain reaction) method. We found that expression of integrin .alpha.5.betha.1 was greatly increased during PMA-induced differentiation of U937 cells and also found that PMA-induced expression of integrin ${\alpha}_5{\beta}_1$ was inhibited by colchicine, microtubule depoly merizing agent. These results indicate that microtubular integrity is associated with expression of integrin. ${\alpha}_5{\beta}_1$ during PMA-induced differentiation of U937 cells.
