  • This paper finds the regular pattern of n = [3, ∞] for Euler square game related with n = 6(6×6=36) thirty-six officer problem that is still unsolved problem. The solution of this problem is exists for n = [3, 10] without n = 6. Also, previous researchers finds the random assigned solution for specific number using computer programming. Therefore, the solution of n = [11, ∞] Euler squares are unsolved problem because of anything but easy. This paper attempts to find generalized patterns for domains that have been extended to n = [3, ∞], while existing studies have been limited to n = [3, 10]. This paper classify the n = [3, ∞] into n = odd, 4k even, 4k+2 even of three classes. Then we find the simple regular pattern solution for n = odd and 4k even(n/2 = even). But we can't find the regular pattern for 4k+2 even(n/2 = odd).

  • We have investigated that the high pretilt angle of the NLC, 4-n-pentyl-4-cyanobiphenyl (5CB), was observed on rubbed polythiophene (PTP) surfaces with alkyl chains with more than 10 carbon atoms; it is attributed to the surface-excluded volume effect by the alkyl chain lengths between the LCs and the PTP surfaces. Next, we investigated that the odd-even effect of the polar anchoring strength in 5CB on rubbed PTP surfaces with alkyl chain lengths has been successfully evaluated. The anchoring strength of 5CB for rubbed PTP surfaces with odd-number is weak compared with even-number up to the 6 carbon atoms in the alkyl chain; however, odd-number is strong compared with even-number above 7 carbon atoms. The weak anchoring strength of 5CB is approximately $1\times10^{-3} (J/m^2$) on rubbed PTP surface with 7 carbon atoms; it is relatively strong anchoring strength. Consequently, we conclude that the odd-even effects of the polar anchoring strength in NLCs are strongly related to the characteristics of the polymer and observed clearly for short alkyl chain lengths.

  • Calculating break-even price of calf production is closely associated with reproductive efficiency. To determine the price, we need data from reproduction records including number of claves weaned, number of cows exposed for breeding, and annual cash coast per cow, and average weaning or market weight of claves sold and retained. Unfortunately, the data were not available in Korea native cow (Hanwoo). To evaluate the performance and the price, we collected calving interval from about 60,000 cows for last 10 years and estimated reproductive performance. Calving interval was increased 4.3% and pregnancy rate was decreased about 1.4~2.8% year-on-year. Increases in growth rates of number of cow and semen per calf supported the low reproductive performance. Finally, break-even price was calculated using estimated percent calf crop and demonstrated that growth rate of break-even price is larger than that of annual cash per cow, suggesting cow-calf profitability and financial efficiency in Korea native cow (Hanwoo) is getting worse.

  • Let S = C(r,m), the finite cyclic semigroup with index r and period m. Each subsemigroup of S is cyclic if and only if either r = 1; r = 2; or r = 3 with m odd. For $r{\neq}1$, the maximum value of the minimum number of elements in a (minimal) generating set of a subsemigroup of S is 1 if r = 3 and m is odd; 2 if r = 3 and m is even; (r-1)/2 if r is odd and unequal to 3; and r/2 if r is even. The number of cyclic subsemigroups of S is $r-1+{\tau}(m)$. Formulas are also given for the number of 2-generated subsemigroups of S and the total number of subsemigroups of S. The minimal generating sets of subsemigroups of S are characterized, and the problem of counting them is analyzed.

  • The home-and-way round-robin sports leagues scheduling problem with minimum brake is very hard to solve in polynomial time. This problem is NP-hard, the complexity status is not yet determined. This paper suggests round-robin sports leagues scheduling algorithm not computer-aided program but by hand with O(n) time complexity for arbitrary number of teams n with always same pattern. The algorithm makes a list of mathes using $n{\times}n$ canonical latin square for n=even teams. Then trying to get home(H) and away(A) with n-2 minimum number of brakes. Also, we get the n=odd scheduling with none brakes delete a team own maximum number of brakes from n=even scheduling.

  • Let ${\alpha}$ be a positive integer, and let $p_1$, $p_2$ be two distinct prime numbers with $p_1$ < $p_2$. By using elementary methods, we give two equivalent conditions of all even near-perfect numbers in the form $2^{\alpha}p_1p_2$ and $2^{\alpha}p_1^2p_2$, and obtain a lot of new near-perfect numbers which involve some special kinds of prime number pairs. One kind is exactly the new Mersenne conjecture's prime number pair. Another kind has the form $p_1=2^{{\alpha}+1}-1$ and $p_2={\frac{p^2_1+p_1+1}{3}}$, where the former is a Mersenne prime and the latter's behavior is very much like a Fermat number.

  • The purpose of this study is one of high price medical equipment wished to grasp propriety factor about the MRI introduction, analyzing payability through cost accounting into compensation. It was investigated from January 1 to December 31, 2007 about the MRI of a General Hospital. Expectation availability was 23.2 cases, but actual availability did achievement more than 196.1% with 45.5 items. It is estimated that there are a lot of occurrence cases because great reasons that actual availability increases more than expectation availability is excellent resolving power than a CT, and is device that prefer to reason back that radiation damage is less in person body. The followings show the main results of this study. 1. The MRI was construed in order of cost accounting, wave and personnel expenses 45.4%, administrative expenses 53.0%, and material costs 1.6%. 2. According to CVP (Cost-volume-profit) analysis, BEP (Break Even Point) profit is 173,931,428 won for 11 months, and break even usage number of items are 37.5 cases, and separation usage number of items were confirmed by 1.4 cases. Therefore, was construed that can achieve BEP within 11 months though usage number of items keeps 1.4 items day to create the MRI's hospital operation profit. 3. Estimated limit profitability appears high by 96.7%, exceed fixed charges even if when is non-benefit and when it is benefit consider variable, is judged that the MRI's addition induction helps in hospital management enhancing earning rates.

  • To understand the caused for poor response to superovulation in water buffalo compared to crossbred cows, follicular events, before start of superovulation, during superovulation and after superovulation were compared. Follicular development was monitored a day before start of superovulation, daily upto superestrus and on the day of flushing. A real time B mode diagnostic instrument equipped with a linear array, 5 MHz transducer was used in five crossbred cows and five Murrah buffaloes. Crossbred cows yielded significantly (p < 0.01) higher number of corpora lutea than buffaloes (21 vs 10). The mean number of small size (2 to 5 mm); medium size (6 to 9 mm) and large size $({\geq}10mm)$ follicles, a day before start of superovulation were almost similar or even slightly higher in buffalo. Though initial shift in the mean number of follicles was higher in buffalo than cow, yet, from Day 2 to Day 3 of the treatment, the average increase in medium (3.2 vs 1.2) and large size (5.0 vs 2.0) follicles was higher in cows than buffaloes. The mean number of medium and large size follicles was 9.8 and 14.4 in cows and 6.4 and 7.6 in buffaloes. On the day of flushing, the number of large size follicle was more in buffaloes than cows, indicating the ovulation problem in this species. The major conclusion from this investigation was that, a day before start of superovulatory treatment, the number of small and medium size follicles was slightly higher in buffaloes, even then superovulatory response was better in cows, due to shift, recruitment and passage of follicles from smaller size to larger size from Day 2 of treatment. Ovulation problem in buffaloes was also responsible for lower superovulatory responses as revealed by the presence of higher number of large size follicles on the day of flushing.

  • The effect of carbon number of hydrocarbon used as a carbon source in the production of cellular lipid of Rhodotorula sp. and its fatty acid composition were investigated. Using Rhodotorula sp. on n-tetradecane and n-hexadecane whose carbon numbers are even, fermentation was carried out in a jar fermentor of 2 liter-capacity at $28^{\circ}C$, with pH range of 4.0∼4.6 and at oxygen flowing rate of 0. 4 vvm and agitation velocity of 1000 rpm. Drying the produced cell after completion of fermentation, cellular lipid was extracted from the cell using soxhlet extractor and examined its fatty acid composition by gas-liquid chromatography. Cellular lipid content in the cell produced on n-tetradecane and n-hexadecane were 12.0 % and 25,8 % on the basis of dry cell weight, respectively and their fatty acids were mostly even numbered in carbon number.
