The critical micelle concentration $(CMC^{\ast})$ and the counterion binding constant (B) in a micellar state of the mixed surfactant systems of dodecylpyridinium chloride (DPC) with dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTAB), tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide (TTAB), and cetyldimethylethylammonium bromide (CDEAB) were determined at $25^{\circ}C$ as a function of ${\alpha}_1$ (the overall molc fraction of DPC) by the use of electric conductivity method. Various thermodynamic parameters $(X_{i},\;{\gamma}_{I},\;C_{i},\;a^{M}_{i}, \beta,\;{\Delta}H_{mix}, \;and\; {\Delta}G^{o}_{m})$ for the micellization of DPC/DTAB, DPC/TTAB, and DPC/CDEAB mixtures were calculated and analyzed for each system by means of the equations derived from the pseudophase separation model. The results show that the DPC/DTAB mixed system has the greatest deviation and the DPC/CDEAB mixed system has the smallest deviation from the ideal mixed micellar model.

In this paper, we propose a construction technique of two-level composite gradient map to automatically track a face with large movement in successive frames. Our method is composed of three main steps. First, the gradient maps with two-level resolution are generated for fast convergence of active contour. Second, to recognize the variations of face between successive frames and remove the neighbor background, weighted composite gradient map is generated by combining the composite gradient map and difference mask of previous and current frames. Third, to prevent active contour from converging local minima, the energy slope is generated by using closing operation. In addition, the fast closing operation is proposed to accelerate the processing time of closing operation. For performance evaluation, we compare our method with previous active contour model-based face tracking methods using a visual inspection, robustness test and processing time. Experimental results show that our method can effectively track the face with large movement and robustly converge to the optimal position even in frames with complicated background.

The comparative molecular field analyses(CoMFA) models between the substituents with changing groups($R_1{\sim}R_4$) of $3{\beta}$-hydroxy-12-oleanen-28-oic acid derivatives as substrate molecule and their inhibitory activities($pI_{50}$) against protein tyrosine phosphatase(PTP)-1B were derived and discussed quantitatively. The optimized CoMFA F1 model have best predictability and fitness($r^2_{cv.}=0.654$ and $r^2_{ncv.}=0.995$). The order of contribution ratio (%) with CoMFA fields on the inhibitory activities was a steric field(53.0%), electrostatic field(36.2%) and hydrophobic field(10.8%). From the analytical results of CoMFA contour maps, the inhibitory activities were dependent on the R4 group in substrate molecules. Particularly, the new active compounds(P1 & P2) with the inhibitory activity against melanin synthesis were expected.

This study examined the effect of chemical attack on the stress-strain relationship of alkali-activated Hwangtoh concrete. Water-to-binder ratio and air content were selected as mixture parameters. The stress-strain relationship of concrete was measured at chemical immersion times of 0, 7, 28, 56, and 91 days from an age of 28 days. Based on the test results, the reduction in compressive strength of alkali-activated hwangtoh concrete owing to chemical attack was formulated. In sddition the present study demonstrated that the stress-strain behavior of concrete under chemical attack is significantly dependent on the air content and chemical immersion time, indicating the rate of decrease of modulus of elasticity was greater than that of compressive strength at the same immersion time. As a result, the stress-strain behavior of concrete under chemical attack was significantly inconsistent with the conventional models specified in the CEB-FIP provision.

3D-QSARs (3 dimensional quantitative structrue-activity relationships) on the inhibition activities of 3-substituted-5,5'-diphenylimidazolidine-2,4-dione derivatives (1-22) against FAAH (fatty acid amide hydrolase) were studied quantitatively using CoMFA (comparative molecular field analysis) and CoMSIA (comparative molecular similarity indice analysis) methods. The statistical results of the CoMFA 1A and CoMSIA 2F model are better predictability and fitness. And also, the designed X=I, Y=$N_{2}^{+}$-substituent (P1: $Pred.pI_{50}$=6.55), according to the contour maps with information of the two models, showed the most inhibition activity against FAAH.

The critical micelle concentrations($CMC^*$) of a cationic surfactant cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) and a nonionic surfactant triton X-100(TX-100) in aqueous solutions of n-alcohols(methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, 1-butanol and 1-pentanol) were determined by UV spectroscopic method at 25$^{\circ}C$. The various thermodynamic values in 0.1 M n-alcohols were calculated by means of the equation derived from the pseudo-phase separation model and compared with the values in the absence of n-alcohols. The results were a good agreement with the nonideal mixed micelle model, and they showed negative deviation from the ideal behavior.

The 3-Acetylpyridine(3-AP) induces cerebellar injury which is chemoablation of the inferior olive nucleus. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of exercise(Ex) and electroacupuncture(EA) on muscle activity of hindlimb and serum brain derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF) in the ataxia rats by the 3-AP. 12-week-aged male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into the 5 groups: Control, 3-AP, 3-AP+Ex, 3-AP+EA and 3-AP+Ex+EA groups. Maximal Height Vertical Jump(MHVJ) was significantly decreased in the 3-AP compared with control group, and it was increased in Ex, EA and Ex+EA groups than 3-AP group. The muscle activity of hindlimb was significantly increased in the 3-AP groups than control group, also it was most decreased in Ex+EA group. The concentration of BDNF of the serum was significantly decreased in the Ex, EA and Ex+EA groups than 3-AP group. The results of this study showed that dynamic exercise and electroacupuncture have a positive effect on functional recovery and in the ataxia rats by the 3-AP.

Active contours are deformable energy minimizing curves controlled by internal energy and external energy. The internal energy is constraint to preserve a smooth curve, and the external energy guides the curve towards image features. B-spline representation of active contours can be of great benefits in the segmentation and description whose shape is characterized by its defining polygon or control points. Menet et al proposed B-spline representation of active contours based on dynamic programming. The method is simple and efficient by comparing over finite difference method.

본 논문에서는 다중접속 프로토콜인 PRMA의 변형된 모델에 대해서 다뤘다. 기존의 PRMA에서는 초기 엑세스시 얻은 슬롯을 휴지기에 잃게 되므로 매 활성기마다 다시 슬롯을 엑세스함으로써 추가적인 패킷의 drop이 발생하는 반면, 변형된 모델에서는 슬롯예약을 유지하기 위한 제어미니슬롯을 사용함으로써 초기 엑세스 이후의 추가적인 패킷 drop이 발생하지 않는다.

To search for a molecular design of a new breast cancerous inhibitory active compound, 2D-QSAR and HQSAR between the substituents of flavopiridol analogues as substrates and their breast cancerous inhibitory activities against MCF-7 cell were analyzed and discussed quantitatively. It was found that the dispersion with molecule and steric hindrance with substituents will have a tremendous impact on the inhibitory activities from the 2D-QSAR model (1). Also, MR constant is better than that of MS constant as animportant factor. The inhibitory activities from 2D-QSAR model (2) were dependent upon the optimum MR constant (MR = 126 $Cm^3/mol$). Optimized HQSAR model (V) exhibited the best predictability of the inhibitory activities based on the cross-validated $r^2_{cv}$($q^2$= 0.583) and non-cross-validated conventional coefficient ($r^2_{ncv}$= 0.982). From the contribution maps, the inhibitory activity by the imino group on $C_9$ atom was higher than that of the hydroxyl group of $C_8$ atom on the A ring in molecule. Therefore, we can confirm that the dispersion by substituents in molecule is the most important factor in inhibitory activities against MCF-7 cell.
