The new GD/ICP-AES quick change over system has been developed and characterized. Within less than 15 minutes, ICP-AES could be switched to GD-AES and vise a versa. As a result, both solid and liquid samples could be analyzed in a very short period of time by the ICP/GD-AES quick change over system developed in our laboratory. The influences of the experimental variables, such as flow rate of coolant gas, flow rate of auxiliary gas, flow rate of sample carrier gas, sampling depth, orifice size of sampling cone, and rf (radio frequency) power on emission intensity have been presented. The detection limits of Cd(I) 228.8 nm, Mn (II) 257.61 nm, and Fe(II) 259.95 nm were found to be 3.86, 1.49, and 5.79 ppb, respectively. And linealities of the calibration curves were measured to be unity.

The critical chloride content of rebar embedded in concrete was experimentally evaluated according to the admixture replacement ratio and admixture type. Four types of reinforced concrete were mixed OPC 100%, OPC 70% + GGBFS 30%, OPC 40% + GGBFS 60%, and OPC 40% + GGBFS 40% + FA 20%. NaCl solution was supplied to the specimens, and the open circuit potential of the embedded rebar was monitored. The specimens determined to initiate corrosion were cut at intervals of 5mm from the NaCl solution supply surface and conducted to chlorine ion profile. Corrosion initiation time of rebar embedded in concrete was delayed as the admixture replacement ratio increased. Looking at the critical chloride content of the types of reinforced concrete, it was highest in OPC 1.46kg/㎥, followed in order by S30 0.98kg/㎥, TBC 0.74kg/㎥, and S60 0.71kg/㎥.

Receiver Operating Characteristic(ROC) and Cumulative Accuracy Profile(CAP) curves are two methods used to assess the discriminatory power of different credit-rating approaches. The points of optimal classification accuracy on an ROC curve and of maximal profit on a CAP curve can be found by using iso-performance tangent lines, which are based on the standard notion of accuracy. In this paper, we offer an alternative accuracy measure called the true rate. Using this rate, one can obtain alternative optimal threshold points on both ROC and CAP curves. For most real populations of borrowers, the number of the defaults is much less than that of the non-defaults, and in such cases the true rate may be more efficient than the accuracy rate in terms of cost functions. Moreover, it is shown that both alternative scores of optimal classification accuracy and maximal profit are the identical, and this single score coincides with the score corresponding to Kolmogorov-Smirnov statistic used to test the homogeneous distribution functions of the defaults and non-defaults.

Objectives : The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of partial pyloric obstruction on body weight, gastric juice, gastric surface area and gastric edema in normal intact and/or vagotomized rats. Methods : Partial pyloric obstruction was performed by wrapping a non-absorbable rubber ring (D:6 mm, W:4 mm, T:1 mm) around the 1st portion of the duodenum. Vagotomy was performed by resecting the branches around the esophagogastric junction. Pre-post body weight differential, fasting gastric juice volume, gastric surface area and gastric edema were measured at 8 weeks and 20 weeks. For the effect of pyloric reperfusion the rubber ring was removed after 8 weeks and then an additional 12 weeks of observation was performed to the end of the 20-week experimental period. Results : In the initial 8 weeks observation, the effect of pylorus obstruction and/or vagotomy was significantly remarkable in the pylorus obstructed and vagotomized group; slowdown of weight gain, increase of fasting gastric juice volume, dilatation of gastric surface area and severe gastric edema were shown. In the remaining 12 weeks observation, the effect of reperfusion was significantly remarkable in the ring-removed antral dilated group; recovery of weight gain, decrease of gastric surface area and decrease of gastric edema were shown. However, gastric juice volume was not significantly different from the other group. Conclusions : Partial pyloric obstruction plays a aggravating role and the vagus nerve plays a protective role in body weight, gastric juice, gastric surface area, and gastric edema. Furthermore, pyloric valve dysfunction as an aggravating factor strengthened in defect of the vagus nerve. These results suggest that patients with both functional pyloric outlet obstruction and hypofunction of vagus nerve need to be diagnosed in good time and treated properly.

In this paper, It propose methods compressing BTC image utilizing data hiding technique. BTC is used to compress general digital image into binary image and applied into application such as printer. Additional information, transferred with binary image, is as big as the size of binary image. Therefore, we wish to reduce the total transmission bandwidth by decreasing the additional information with sustaining the small image degradation. Because typical BTC image doesn't have enough space for data hiding, we adopt Adaptive AMBTC (Absolute Moment BTC) algorithm to produce the binary image, and calculate virtual histogram from created binary image and modify this histogram for reducing the additional information. The proposed algorithm can reduce about 6-11 % of the image file size, compared with the existing BTC algorithm, without making perceptible image degradation.

In this paper, the displacement and stress strength safeties have been presented for cylindrical hollow rollers of a wire saw machine. Using the finite element method, the hollow roller with Y-shaped shift and vertical columns between three tubes has been developed to analyze the displacement behavior and stress strength safeties. For the same diameter and length of hollow roller models with a different weight, the displacement behavior safety of Y-shaped shift column and vertical column models is heavily depending on the total length of a hollow roller, which is closely related to the bending moment of a hollow roller structure. But, the stress strength of a hollow roller is more influenced by the cross sectional area of a hollow roller for the similar weight. Thus, this paper recommends Y-shaped hollow roller for increasing the roller strength safety and decreasing a total roller weight.

In this paper, we propose and the call admission control mechanism that can improve the capacity of the wireless system for the non-uniform traffic load distribution based intelligent information in multiple cellular CDMA environment. The number of mobile stations that can be served simultaneously in a base station is limited by the amount of total interference received in CDMA system. Further, the average number of mobile stations in each cell may not be uniformly distributed. In this paper, considering this factors, the call admission control mechanism using the effective bandwidth concept is adapted to improve the system capacity of non-uniform traffic load distribution based intelligent information. Thus, the bandwidth for a new call can be varied dynamically for reducing the blocking rate of new calls and the dropping rate of handoff calls. The suggested call admission control mechanism is experimented through simulation by dynamically assigning the bandwidth to new and handoff calls. The simulation results show that the proposed call admission control mechanism can accommodate more mobile stations than the other methods in multiple cellular CDMA environment.
