This study is aimed at cutting down the cost, weight and improving process by replacing the traditional sintered piston of the shock absorber with engineering plastic piston by means of injection molding. To obtain the high mechanical properties, glass fiber material was selected adequately and forming analysis considering fiber orientation was made to remove the forming deficit fators and to construct the optimal runner system. In addition, structural analysis using commercial software MOLDFLOW was performed under near conditions in actual driving of automotive. The results from the internal pressure process test, oilproof test based on forming, structural and strength analysis shows that hydraulic close performance and damping force considering the out of roundness of shock absorber are relatively good.

In this study, we examined some matters related to the learning of variable concept in school mathematics on the basis of the theoretical foundation from the previous studies(e.g. Davis, 1975; Rosnick, 1981; IK chemann, 1981; Wagner, 1983.) and practices on variable concept teaching by evaluating the current state of that. Matters be discussed are as follows; the use of symbol for place holders in elementary mathematics, the dealing with sets those elements are literals and operations of such sets, the teaching of dummy variable, the construction of literal expressions that contains variables, the labeling indeterminates as a constant, the change in the exact meaning of variable according to the function concept, the teaching of a generalization by means of variables. After considering on these matters that are connected with the teaching-learning of variable concept, we suggested the alternative proposal to the current state of variable concept teaching.

The inherent limitation of the conventional approaches in automatic indexing lies in the fact that they compute the relevancy between index terms and documents rather indirectly or relatively. As an alternative the anlaysis of document texts seeks a means of establishing a direct relevancy of the terms. More rigorous linguistic analysis will ensure better chance of relevancy. Various semantic topologies among terms may suggest the sufficient quality for relevancy. The enhanced and guaranteed relevance will allow the high precision of retrieval. Along with this line the on going project in KAIST pursues the user oriented retrieval system that spawns still may other issues that are not c o m n in traditional perspective.

This paper proposes the method that detects abnormal trajectory of fish with tracking data. And it is obtained by automatic tracking system based on conventional computer vision. Also, we analyze the trajectory using subband frequency features through DWT(Discrete Wavelet Transform). Through experimental results, we confirm that our results have some statistical means. The proposed method demonstrates that DWT is useful method for detecting presence of toxicoid features in environment as for an alternative of bio-monitoring tool.

Biocontrol of plant pathogens provides an alternative means of reducing the incidence of plant diseases without the negative aspects of chemical pesticides. Nowdays, as the resistant fungi about the chemical fungicides have revealed and the concern of environment has increased, the biological control of phytopathogenic fungi by the antagonistic microorganisms is very much indispensable. For the selection of strong antagonistic bacterium for biological control agent of rice leafblast and cucumber gray mold rot, the antifungal strain KL-3 strain was selected among 120 strains isolated from the rhizosphere soils. And the strain was identified to be a species of Bacillus subtilis or closely related strain. In several biochemical and in vitro antibiosis tests, antifungal substances of Bacillus sp. KL-3 were presumed heat stable, micromolecular antibiotic substances. In vivo test and vinyl house field test, the antifungal substances of Bacillus sp. KL-3 represented excellent biocontrol ability aganist Alternaria mali, Phyricularia oryzae, and Alternaria kikuchiana as well as broad spectrum of other fungi. In particular, Bacillus sp. KL-3 strain showed more predominant activity than some chemical fungicides against fungi shown to resist chemcal fungicides.

New information technologies have often been treated as innovations for target users. Although users in recent times have had significantly more opportunities to be socialized with information technologies, the rapid pace of technology development usually means that every new technology represents a fairly major change over the previous one. Although a fairly significant body of research that empirically tests these alternative models and theories is now in existence, some questions with regard to the role of perceptions in innovation adoption remain unanswered. This paper reports the results of a field study examining adoption of an information technology innovation represented by an internet application. Moreover, the study examines the effects of an important moderating influence-personal innovativeness-on this adoption process. Finally, the study seeks to shed further light on the determinants of perceptions by examining the relative efficacy of mass media and interpersonal channels in facilitating perception development.

It is the sensitivity and confidentiality of nuclear power plant decommissioning cost that prevent detailed cost information to be released to the public, which causes some limitation to analyze and reuse the costs. This limitation to access cost information means that the lessons learned from preceding cost estimating may not systematically feed back into following cost estimates. As an alternative, decommissioning cost estimation framework is indispensable to reflecting available experience and knowledge for decommission costs. This study provides the cost estimation framework including data flow and structuralization based on engineering and bottom up approach to enhance decommissioning cost estimation.

Surgical elevation of the depressed bone is known to be the conventional treatment usually recommended for a simple depressed skull fracture in the adult or pediatric age. The authors introduce, however, a case of depressed skull fracture in an infant which was elevated by means of a cup of breast pump and a suction generator without surgical elevation. In our case, without surgery, a 'cup-shaped' depressed skull fracture in an infant was safely elevated with no neurological signs. This method is considered a simple, effective, safe, and alternative procedure in an infant with simple depressed skull fracture.

Large to giant middle cerebral artery aneurysm is a challenging disease, especially when incorporating important perforating arteries. Surgical risk increases by perforator infarction and anatomical complexity. In this clinical setting, extensive consideration of surgical options is needed. The two cases described here were unruptured and had rather stable wall. Because of their large and giant size, hardness and incorporated arteries, it was not affordable to isolate them by means of clipping or trapping. The procedure as the alternative to conventional treatment modalities, extracranial-intracranial bypass followed by clipping of only the efferent artery successfully treated the aneurysms.

Under water wet welding is an economically alternative for the repair of offshore structures. In this paper investigations on the fatigue strength of a wet welded pipe structural member have been reported. For the connection a special sleeve patch design has been developed. The joint was fatigue tested. The evaluation of the test was carried out by means of the hot-spot approach with regard to several extrapolation rules of the hot-spot stress. Obtained results have been compared to actual classfication rules and recommendations.
