In this research, we examined the effect of NaCl on the growth, energy metabolism, and proton motive force of Halomonas salina, and the effect of compatible solutes on the bacterium growing in the high salinity environment. H. salina was isolated from seawater and identified by 16srDNA sequencing. The growth of H. salina was not enhanced by the addition of external compatible solutes (choline and betaine) in the high salinity environment. The resting cells of H. salina absorbed more glucose in the presence of 2.0 M NaCl than in its absence. H. salina did not grow in the medium with either KCl, RbCl, CsCl, $Na_2SO_4$, or $NaNO_3$, in place of NaCl. The optimal concentration of NaCl for the growth of H. salina ranged from 1.4 M to 2.5 M, and the growth yield was decreased in the presence of NaCl below 1.4M and above 2.5M. The activity of isocitrate dehydrogenase, pyruvate dehydrogenase, and malate dehydrogenase of H. salina was not inhibited by NaCl in in vitro test. The proton translocation of H. salina was detected in the presence of NaCl only. These results indicate that NaCl is absolutely required for the normal growth and energy metabolism of H. salina, but the bacterial growth is not enhanced by the compatible solutes added to the growth medium.

Typically susceptible lesions were developed on pepper (cv. Hanbyul) leaves inoculated with the compatible strains Ds 1 of Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria. The lesions appeared first water-soaked and then turned yellow with a chlorotic area. In contrast, the leaves inoculated with the incompatible strain 81-23 initially turned yellow and then developed local necrosis. Multiplication of x. c. pv. vesicatoria in pepper leaves also were distinctly different between the two strains. The strain Ds 1 multiplied more greatly than did the strain 81-23 in the infected leaves. X. c. pv. vesicatoria infection of pepper leaves induced the synthesis of soluble proteins, especially more greatly in the compatible than in the incompatible interactions. Some pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins were detected in the intercellular washing fluid (IWF) and extracts of the infected pepper leaves. In particular, the 32 kDa protein on SDS-PAGE gels appeared intensely in the incompatible interaction. In contrast, some proteins with moluecular masses of 65, 71, and 75 kDa disappeared in the infected pepper leaves. Isoelectric focusing could identify the pIs of soluble proteins in infected pepper leaves. The accumulation of the IWF from infected leaves was more conspicuous in the incompatible than the compatible interaction. These results suggest that some extremely acidic and basic proteins were induced and accumulated in the intercellular spaces of infected pepper leaves.

Inoculation with the compatible strain Ds 1 of Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria caused brownish ad water-soaked lesions, but incompatible strain Bv5-4a produced hypersensitive symptoms with local necrosis on tomato (cv. Kwangyang) leaves. Bacterial populations of the compatible strains Ds 1 propagated more greatly than the incompatible strain Bv5-4a at the frist onset, but no differences were observed 5 days after inoculation. The bacterial infection induced the synthesis and accumulation of soluble proteins in tomato leaves, especially in the incompatible interaction. Native-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis distinguished the soluble proteins in the tomato leaves infected by the compatible or incompatible strains. A protein of low molecular weight occurred only in the incompatible interaction. Some pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins, especially the 15, 18, 23, 26 and 54 kDa proteins, were detected only in the infected tomato leaves. In the two-dimensional electrophoresis, some proteins with different molecular weights (Mr. 21∼29 kDa) and the pI 8∼9 appeared more distinctly only in the incompatible interaction. These data suggest that the de novo synthesis of some PR proteins in tomato may be significant in defense against X. c. pv. vesicatoria.

This paper presents the optimal design of an exhaust system of a vacuum-compatible air bearing using a genetic algorithm. To use the air bearings in vacuum conditions, the differential exhaust method is adopted to minimize the air leakage, which prevents air from leaking into a vacuum chamber by recovering air through several successive seal stages in advance. Therefore, the design of the differential exhaust system is very important because several design parameters such as the number of seals, diameter and length of an exhaust tube, pumping speed and ultimate pressure of a vacuum pump, seal length and gap(bearing clearance) influence on the air leakage, that is, chamber's degree of vacuum. In this paper, we used a genetic algorithm to optimize the design parameters of the exhaust system of a vacuum-compatible air bearing under the several constraint conditions. The results indicate that chamber's degree of vacuum after optimization improved dramatically compared to the initial design, and that the distribution of the spatial design parameters, such as exhaust tube diameter and seal length, was well achieved, and that technical limit of the pumping speed was well determined.

A programmable smart charger compatible to various load conditions is proposed in this paper. Since the proposed smart charger is compatible to various mobile devices having different rated voltage and power, it is convenient for carrying and easy to standardize many kinds of battery chargers. Moreover, since it uses the input impedance and built-in PMIC (Power management IC) of the load system to recognize the connection state and specifications of load system, hardware changes of load system is not only hardly necessary but it also features no addition communication cable and easy implementation. To confirm the validity of the proposed charger, the theoretical analysis and experiment results from a prototype compatible to three load conditions 5V/1A, 5V/2A and 12V/1A are provided.

Modern performance-based design methods require ways to determine the factual behavior of structures subjected to earthquakes. Drift ratio demands are important measures of structural and/or nonstructural damage of the structures in performance-based design. In this study, global drift ratio and interstory drift ratio demands, obtained by nonlinear time history analysis of three generic RC frames using code-compatible ground motion record sets, are statistically evaluated. Several ground motion record sets compatible with elastic design spectra defined for the local soil classes in Turkish Earthquake Code are used for the analyses. Variation of the drift ratio demands obtained from ground motion records in the sets and difference between the mean of drift ratio demands calculated for ground motion sets are evaluated. The results of the study indicate that i) variation of maximum drift ratio demands in the sets were high; ii) different drift ratio demands are calculated using different ground motion record sets although they are compatible with the same design spectra; iii) the effect of variability due to random causes on the total variability of drift ratio demands is much larger than the effect of variability due to differences between the mean of ground motion record sets; iv) global and interstory drift ratio demands obtained for different ground motion record sets can be accepted as simply random samples of the same population at %95 confidence level. The results are valid for all the generic frames and local soil classes considered in this study.

According as ground acceleration becomes to exceed gravity acceleration recently, design is impossible or economical efficiency is poor in existing seismic design method. So increase of seismic isolated bridges is currently in progress. However, because base isolation design method is developed in high seismic regions. it may not be compatible in Korea. Therefore, this research has objective to evaluate ductility of pier and response modification factor according to the ductility of pier in seismic isolated bridges and to adapt to seismic characteristics in Korea. For this purpose, nonlinear analysis is accomplished with so many time histories derived from spectral density function compatible with response spectrum described in the design code and base isolation system modeled linear system, bi-linear system, and friction system. Through application of the proposed method, we had result that it may be compatible that response modification factor for the seismic isolated bridges is smaller than half of that for the conventional bridges when natural period of structures exceeds proper level.

본 연구에서는 광섬유를 이용하여 반사형과 투과형의 MR-Compatible Photoplethysmograph (PPG) 측정 시스템을 개발하고, 그 성능을 비교하고자 한다. 반사형 타입은 광섬유 다발의 끝단을 피부에 접촉 시킨 후 반사현상을 이용하여 PPG 신호를 측정하고, 투과형 타입은 광섬유 사이에 피부를 접촉시킨 후 투과현상을 이용하여 PPG 신호를 계측한다. PPG 측정 시스템은 광 신호를 검출하는 센서 부분, 근적외선 광 신호를 송수신하는 광케이블 부분, 신호 증폭 부분, 잡음 제거를 위한 필터부분으로 구성되어 있다. 반사형 및 투과형 PPG 신호의 SNR을 비교한 결과 반사형은 23.5dB이고 투과형은 22.2dB로 차이가 거의 없었다. 그러므로 실험 환경이나 목적에 따라 두 가지 타입 중 효율성이 좀 더 높은 것을 선택하여 사용할 수 있을 것이다.

Owing to the development of the notion of normal adjacency of a digital product [9], product properties of digital topological properties were studied efficiently. To equivalently represent a normal adjacency of a digital product, the present paper proposes an S-compatible adjacency of a digital product. This approach can be helpful to understand a normal adjacency of a digital product. Finally, using an S-compatible adjacency of a digital product, we can study product properties of digital topological properties, which improves the presentations of the normal adjacency of a digital product in [9] and [5, 6].
