Free radical scavengers in the bisdemethoxycurcumin (BDMC), demethoxycurcumin (DMC) and curcumin of turmeric (Curcuma longa) were screened, identified, quantified and isolation using coupled off-line-2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) and on-line screening high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)-ABTS assay. There was a very small margin of error between the off-line-ABTS method and the on-line screening HPLC-ABTS method.

The subchannel analysis capability of MARS, a multi-dimensional thermal-hydraulic system code, has been enhanced. In particular, the turbulent mixing and void drift models for the flow-mixing phenomena in rod bundles were improved. Then, the subchannel analysis feature was combined with the existing coupled system thermal-hydraulics (T/H) and 3D reactor kinetics calculation capability of MARS. These features allow for more realistic simulations of both the hot channel behavior and the global system T/H behavior. Using the coupled features of MARS, a coupled analysis of a main steam line break (MSLB) is carried out for demonstration purposes. The results of the calculations are very reasonable and promising.

Asymmetrical parallel coupled lines are used in a number of circuits such as multi-band coupler and combline type band pass filter. Although graphical results and formulas are available for the design of coupled lines, the design procedure is hard to use, because even- and odd- mode impedances are always expressed in terms of the physical geometry. In this paper, we introduce a method to find design parameter using finite element analysis. By employing the capacitance obtained by FE analysis, design parameters for each lines are extracted. To show the validity of extracted design parameter for asymmetrical parallel coupled line, we have designed and simulated a planar type combline band pass filter.

A new efficient analytical eye-diagram determination technique for coupled interconnect lines is presented. Two coupled lines are decoupled into isolated eigen modes; bit blocks for coupled lines, which are defined as a block of consecutive bits, are then represented with decoupled modes. The crosstalk effects within the bit blocks are taken into account. Thereby, the crucial input bit patterns for the worst case eye-diagram determination are modeled mathematically, including inter-symbol interference (ISI). The proposed technique shows excellent agreement with the SPICE-based simulation. Furthermore, it is very computation-time-efficient in the order of magnitude, compared with the SPICE simulation, which requires numerous pseudo-random bit sequence (PRBS) input signals.

This paper proposes a dual-band bandpass filter using stepped-impedance resonators (SIRs) with parallel coupled structures. The proposed filter adopts U-shaped SIRs with parallel coupled lines (PCLs) that have interdigital and comb-line shorted ends. The central PCLs build an upper passband and a transmission zero, and the two U-shaped SIRs build a lower passband. Four resonators and coupling structures are theoretically analyzed to derive its scattering parameters. A novel dual-band bandpass filter is designed and fabricated using the induced scattering characteristics. The measured results show that the fabricated dual-band bandpass filter has an insertion loss of less than 1.02 dB in the lower band of 2.45 GHz and of 3.01 dB in the upper band of 3.42 GHz, and a band-to-band isolation of more than 40 dB, from 3.14 to 3.2 GHz.

This paper describes the theory and experimental result of scaled model of SSSC. The SSSC, a solid-state voltage source inverter coupled with a transformer, is connected in series with a transmission line. Injected voltage is almost in quadrature with the line current, thereby emulating an inductive or a capacitive reactance in series with the transmission line.

Chua's circuit is a simple electronic network which exhibits a variety of bifurcation and attractors. The circuit consists of two capacitors, an inductor, a linear resistor, and a nonlinear resistor. In this paper, a transmitter and a receiver using two identical Chua's circuits are proposed and a synchronizations of lossless transmission line are investigated. Since the synchronization of the transmission system is impossible by coupled synchronization, the drive-response synchronization theory were used. As a result, the chaos synchronization has delay characteristics in the lossless transmission system caused by the line parameters L and C.

We design and fabricate 3-dB tandem directional coupler using the coplanar waveguide structure which is applicable to balanced amplifiers and mixers for 60 GHz wireless local area network system. The coupler comprises the multiple-sectional parallel-coupled lines to facilitate the fabrication process, and enable smaller device size and higher directivity than those of the conventional 3-dB coupler employing the edge-coupled line. In this study, we adopt the structure of two-sectional parallel-coupled lines of which each single-coupled line has a coupling coefficient of -8.34 dB and airbridge structure to monolithically materialize the uniplanar coupler structure instead of using the conventional multilayer or bonded structure. The airbridge structure also supports to minimize the parasitic components and maintain desirable device performance in V-band (50$\~$75 GHz). The measured results from the fabricated couplers show couplings of 3.S$\~$4 dB and phase differences of 87.5$^{\circ}{\pm}1^{\circ}$ in V-band range and show directivities higher than 30 dB at a frequency of 60 GHz.

This paper proposed a fuzzy logic cross coupled controller which can enhance the path tracking performance of optically guided AGV(Automated Guided Vehicle). The AGV follows the guide path, it cannot be avoid the deviation from the path due to the inevitable error and the deviation must be corrected. Optically guided AGV used in industrial area is controlled by On-Off controller generally, the experimental AGV has three optical sensors in front body. In this structure, we could not know the leaving distance accurately and steering angle from the guided line, so AGV could not be controlled properly with conventional controller in the case of increasing or decreasing velocity. If we mount additional sensors the AGV, we could know the leaving distance and steering angle from the guided line and proper error compensating methode can be applied. But because cost of sensors are high, the cost of total system is increasing. So, in this paper, to improve the tracking performance of AGV which has the minimum number of sensors and fuzzy logic cross coupled controller is proposed. Some simulations and experimental results are presented to illustrate the performance of the proposed controller.
