This thesis deals with a novel font-dependent Hangul recognition algorithm invariant to position translation, scaling, and rotation using circular pattern vectors. The proposed algorithm removes noise from input letters using binary morphology and generates the circular pattern vectors. The generated circular pattern vectors represent spatial distributions on several concentric circles from the center of gravity in a given letter. Then the algorithm selects the letter minimizing the distance between the reference vectors and the generated circular pattern vectors. In order to estimate performances of the proposed algorithm, the completed Batang Hangul 2,350 letters were used as test images with scaling and rotational transformations. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm are better than conventional algorithm using the ring projection in the recognition rates of Hangul letters with scaling and rotational transformation.

This paper describes the structural behavior and the ultimate strengths of circular hollow steel (CHS) sections based on a series of compression tests. The ultimate strengths of CHS section columns are mainly dependent on both diameter-thickness ratio and column slenderness ratio. For the CHS sections with a high diameter-thickness ratio, an elastic or an inelastic local buckling may occur prior to the overall buckling, and it may decrease the column strength. Test sections were fabricated from SM400 steel plate of 2.8 mm and 3.2 mm in thickness and were tested to failure. The diameter-thickness ratios of the test sections ranged from 45 to 170 to investigate the effect of local buckling on the column strength. The compression tests indicated that the CHS sections of lower diameter-thickness ratio than the yield limit in the current design specifications showed an inelastic local buckling and a significant post-buckling strength in the local mode. Their ultimate stresses were larger than the nominal yield stress. It was known that the allowable stresses of the sections predicted by the Korean Highway Bridge Design Specifications (2005) were too conservative in comparison with test results. The Direct Strength Method which was newly developed was calibrated for application to the CHS sections by the experimental and numerical results. The Direct Strength Method proposed can predict properly the ultimate strength of CHS section columns whether a local buckling and an overall buckling occur nearly simultaneously or not.

This study describes conditions for plant regeneration from protoplasts-derived from embryogenic callus of satsuma mandarin. Plants were generated via somatic embryogenesis. Protoplasts isolated directly from nucellar callus induced from immature ovule of satsuma mandarin cv. Okitsu (Citrus unshiu Marc.) were cultured in 0.6M $BH_3$ medium. Cell division and plating efficiency were affected by protoplast culture method. The liquid over solid method was the most effective for formation of microcalli. Most of microcalli grew rapidly and transferred onto embryoid formation medium. Optimum embryoid formation medium was MT medium containing 1.5 g/L malt extract, 0.146 M sucrose and the medium for plantlet regeneration was MS medium containing 0.09M sucrose, 1.0 mg/L $GA_3$. No differences were noticed in growth habits and leaf characters such as shape, thickness, and colour between protoplast-derived plants and nucellar seedlings. This plant regeneration system from protoplasts-derived from embryogenic callus provides an alternative way for producing new scion and rootstock cultivar from citrus species which can not be crossed.

휘스커상의 뮬라이트의 생성온도와 속도는 출발물질로 사용되는 알루미나와 실리카의 화학적 순도, 입자크기 그리고 결정형태에 의존하며, 알루미나와 실리카의 조성비에 따라 생성되는 뮬라이트의 형태가 변한다. 각 원료에 대한 반응성을 관찰하기 위하여 출발원료인 Al(OH)$_3$, 비정질 SiO$_2$, AlF$_3$를 혼합 각각 단일조성과 2상 및 3상의 원료를 혼합 분쇄하여 분무건조한 조립분말을 5$0^{\circ}C$ 구간으로 나누어 상온에서 130$0^{\circ}C$까지 튜브 로에서 열처리하였다. Al(OH)$_3$와 AlF$_3$를 단독으로 열처리하였을 경우에는 안정한 상태로 열처리가 진행되었으나, 혼합하였을 경우에는 40$0^{\circ}C$ 이상의 온도에서 서서히 반응하였다. 각 온도구간에서 열처리한 시편은 미세구조 관찰과 상분석을 통하여 플루오르 토파즈와 휘스커상의 뮬라이트의 생성을 관찰하였으며, 생성된 휘스커 뮬라이트는 조립의 형상을 원형대로 보존하였으며, 조립의 강도를 측정하기 위하여, 초음파 분산기와, 초음파 Homgeniger를 이용하여 처리한 결과 대부분 원래의 형상을 유지하였다.

The purpose of this study is to identify the radiative heat transfer augmentation by a coaxial cylinder introduced in the infinite cylindrical pipe enclosing a participating gas. The gas is either a mixture of water vapor and carbon dioxide or gray. The gas is assumed to be homogeneous at a constant temperature, and has a refractive index of unity. All of the surfaces are opaque and gray, diffusely emitting and reflecting at a constant temperature, The effect of system diameter, diameter ratio, wall emittances, gas and surface temperatures, mixture component on heat transfer augmentation are studied by using the zone method with participating gas radiative properties evaluated from the weighted sum of gray gases model. From the radiative equilibrium condition, the installed wall temperature is formulated and calculated by the iteration method. If the medium is a gray gas, the augmentation observed are negligible. For the range of values studied for a real gas, if the system diameter is larger than about 0.1m the augmentation parameter increases up to about 1.2 as the system diameter increases. The augmentation parameter have a maximum value at a certain diameter ratio. The augmentation parameters decreases as the emittance of the installed wall decreases. If the gas temperature is higher than about 1273 k, the augmentation parameter decreases as the gas temperature increases.

In an effort to investigate the role of calmodulin (CaM) as a modulating molecule in the signal transduction system in plant cells, we established methods for introduction of purified CaM into cultured soybean cells. CaM was purified from bovine testis, and was labelled with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC). Suspension -cultured cells were healed with saponin (0.1 mg/mL) to permeabilize the plasma membrane and coincubated with FITC-CaM complex. Saponin pretreatment was found to increase the fluorescence in the suspension cultured cells, indicating that the FITC-CaM complex could be incorporated into the cytoplasm. Optimal conditions for introducing FITC-CaM complex into protoplasts by electroporation were established with various electric pulses. With increasing field strength, the fluorescence in the protoplase was increased, while the viability of the protoplase decreased. FITC-CaM complex was successfully introduced into the protoplasts by electroporation and the amount of FITC-CaM complex in the protoplase was estimated.

Endocrine cells in the pyloric region of the hedgehog were studied ultrastructurally. 4 types of endocrine cells classified as gastric-type EC, ELC, $D_1$, and G cells were observed in this region. The gastric-type EC cells contained pleomorphic granules with high electron density and highly dense bodies in a dense matrix. ECL cells were characterized by the presence of round or oval granules with high electron density. Some granules of ECL cells showed a small amount of content or empty. $D_1$ cells contained round and small granules with low electron density. They occasionally showed a narrow halo between the limiting membrane and the dense materials. G cells were characterized by the presence of round or oval granules with low electron density. Some granules of these cells showed a narrow halo between the limiting membrane and the core.

Numerical calculations are carried out for evaluating the natural convection induced by the temperature difference between a hot inner circular cylinder and a cold outer square enclosure. A two-dimensional solution for unsteady natural convection is obtained by using the finite volume method to model an inner circular cylinder that was designed by using the immersed boundary method (IBM) for a Rayleigh number of $10^7$. In this study, we investigate the effect of the location ($\delta$) of the inner cylinder, which is located along the vertical central axis of the outer enclosure, on the heat transfer and fluid flow. The natural convection changes from unsteady to steady state depending on the $\delta$. The two critical lower bound and upper bound positions are ${\delta}_{C,L}$ = 0.05 and ${\delta}_{C,U}$ = 0.18, respectively. Within these defined bounds, the thermal and flow fields are in steady state.
