The electrical transport properties of mayenite ($Ca_{12}Al_{14}O_{33}$ or $12CaO{\cdot}7Al_2O_3$; mostly abbreviated as $C_{12}A_7$) can be controlled in a wide range by varying the oxygen deficiency: At high temperatures mayenite becomes either an oxygen solid electrolyte, a mixed ionic/electronic conductor or an inorganic electride with metal-like properties upon chemical reduction (removing oxygen). The underlying defect chemistry can be understood on the basis of a relatively simple model-despite the complex cage structure: A point defect model based on the assumption that the framework $[Ca_{12}Al_{14}O_{32}]^{2+}$ acts as a pseudo-donor describes well the high temperature transport properties. It accounts for the observed conductivity plateau at higher oxygen activities and also describes the experimentally observed oxygen activity dependence of the electronic conductivity with -1/4 slope at temperatures between 800 and $1000^{\circ}C$. Doping effects in mayenite are still not well explored, and we review briefly the existing data on doping by different elements. Hydration of mayenite plays a crucial role, as Mayenite is hygroscopic, which may be a major obstacle for technical applications.

Until now, considerable progress has been made in the application of range finding techanique performing direct 3-D measurement from the object. However, ther are few use of the method in the area of the application of material handing. We present a range finding vision system consisting of static and dynamic range finders to automate a reclaimer used for material handling. A static range finder detects range data of the front part of the piles of material, and a height map is obtained from the proposed image processing algorithm. The height map is used to calculate the optimal job path as features for required information for material handling function. A dynamic range finder attached on the side of the arm of the reclaimer detects the change of the local properties of the material with the handling function, which is used for avoiding collision and detecting the ending point for changing direction. the developed vision systm was applied to a 1/20 simulator and the results of test show that it is appropriate to use for automating the material handling.

In this study, flow structure in a three-stage centrifugal compressor for LNG Plant with the refrigerant, Propane, was numerically investigated at the design point of the compressor using a commercial code. Flow characteristics in the passages of impeller and vaneless diffuser were analyzed in detail including velocity vector, Mach number and pressure contours in blade spanwise and meridional plane for each stage. The estimation on the one-dimensional output from the preliminary design and three-dimensional shape of the impeller blade was performed through the flow analysis. The verification for designed compressor was carried out from three-dimensional Navier-Stokes analysis. The results will be used as reference data for a new design of 3-D impeller shape to improve propane refrigerant compressor performance.

The visual evoked potentials were measured using 19 electrodes attached to the scalp in 5 normal and 4 abnormal subjects during visual stimulation and these data were sampled for computer processing with 500 Hz sampling frequency. The center of potential distributions and its time-dependent locus were estimated from these potential distributions using weighting matrix which was determined by the electrodes' position coordinates. In normal subjects these estimated electrical signals were shown to propagate from the frontal lobe to the occipital lobe of the cortex following the known visual pathway. In abnormal subjects, there were significant differences in these estimated propagation pathway. The relationships among this model, the point source model and the dipole source model were analyzed.

Performance of a prototype base isolated building located at Indian Institute of Technology, Guwahati (IITG) has been studied here. Two numbers of three storeyed single bay RCC framed prototype buildings were constructed for experimental purpose at IITG, one supported on conventional isolated footings and the other on a seismic isolation system, consisting of lead plug bearings. Force balance accelerometers and a 12 channel strong motion recorder have been used for recording building response during seismic events. Floor responses from these buildings show amplification for the conventional building while 60 to 70% reduction has been observed for the isolated building. Numerical models of both the buildings have been created in SAP2000 Nonlinear. Infill walls have been modeled as compression struts and have been incorporated into the 3D models using Gap elements. System identification of the recorded data has been carried out using Parametric State Space Modeling (N4SID) and the numerical models have been updated accordingly. The study demonstrates the effectiveness of base isolation systems in controlling seismic response of isolated buildings thereby leading to increased levels of seismic protection. The numerical models calibrated by relatively low level of earthquake shaking provides the starting point for modeling the non-linear response of the building when subjected to strong shaking.

Purpose: This study was to identify factors predicting the occurrence of depression among patients with hepatitis C treated with Peg-interferon. Methods: The subjects were 134 patients treated with Peg-interferon after the diagnosis with hepatitis C at the D University Hospital and 3 hospitals located in Busan, South Korea. The predictors of depression were identified by measuring the general characteristics of the subjects and their disease-related characteristics, social support, sleep disorders, and degree of side effects by interferon. The data were analyzed with a t-test, ANOVA, and logistic regression using the SPSS/WIN 18.0 program. Results: Sixty-six point four percent of the subjects suffered from mild to more severe depression. Fatigue, hair loss, itching, and sleep disorders turned out to be significant predictors. In addition, the explanatory power of these variables for the occurrence of depression was 70%. Conclusion: Sleep disorders and drug side effects were determined to have significant influence on the development of depression in hepatitis C patients treated with Peg-interferon. Therefore, the development of nursing intervention programs aimed to prevent depression by effectively managing sleep disorders and side effects is mandated in future to help the given population.

This paper is the result of a petrochemical study on the Jongam granite mass which intruded metasediments of Ogcheon zone, locating about 10km northwest from Miweon town, and the mass is $2.5km^2$ in area. In this study, the granite was petrographically analysed in such ways, modal analysis, myrmekite analysis, petrochemical study analysis and tectonic analysis of joint system. The findings are as follows: 1) The area of the granite distributed is a basin surrounded by metasediments. The granite is magma origin. 2) The major mineral composition of the granite are quartz, plagioclase, microcline orthoclase and biotite, and accessaries are muscovite, sericite, magnetite, zircon and sphene. 3) In triangles of $Qu-K{\cdot}fp-PI$, Bi-Or-Hb+Mt and Qu-Ab-Or, the data point areas are similar to those of the NW zone of D.S. Lee (1971) 4) The granite mass can be divided into three granites; quartz monzonite, granodiorite and biotite granite, by petrological aspect in detail. 5) It shows inverse ratio of content between quartz and plagioclase. 6) The myrmekite-texture of the granite are stem type and dominating in northern part. 7) In the tectonic analysis of joint, the strikes are almost constant in direction, N-S direction of dominant joints 8) The geological age of the granites estimated to be Jurassic in age. 9) According to the mineralogical distribution and joint systen, the intrusion direction of the granite magma was infered as from north to south.

Sewer Rehabilitation Project (SRP) is planed, designed and constructed to perform its intended performance as sewerage delivery systems. Recently, a subject of performance evaluation methodology development for SRP has become a great deal of concern among researchers in Korea. From the view point of Sewage Treatment Plant (STP), however, the estimation of improvement efficiency for SRP is in lack of reliability due to the fact that affections for the treatment efficiency and operating condition are not reflected on SRP design and construction. In this study, statistical methodology was used in the analysis of data, which are taken during 1,186 days ($1^{st}$ Jan. 2005 - $31^{th}$ Mar. 2008) from the influent, effluent and operating conditions of full-scale STP($25,000m^3/d$). Then the effect of SRP on the influent characteristics and operating conditions changing was compared and evaluated. Results from the statistical evaluation show that SRP causes characteristic changes in influent and exerts a significant effect especially on the performance of STP.

The present study was conducted by using stereo pattern recognition method(SPR method) to measure the displacement and vibration of an airplane wing in flight condition. A SPR based measurement system was developed using two visible light stereo cameras. The visible light stereo images were processed to obtain marker points by adaptive threshold method and marker filtering technique. The marker points were used to reconstruct 3D point, displacement, and vibration data. The SPR system was installed on F-16 fighter. The wing displacement and vibration were measured in flight condition. Therefore, this paper presents a possibility that SPR based measurement system using visible light stereo camera can be very useful for measuring displacement and vibration of an airplane in flight condition.
