  • Purpose: The purpose of this study is to analyze low-temperature starting performance of the light attacker and to search and improve the aircraft system including battery and Battery Charge and Control Unit(BCCU). Methods: In order to improve the starting up performance of the light attacker at low-temp, various deficiency cause were derived and analyzed using Fault Tree Analysis method. As a result, it was confirmed there were drawbacks in the charging and discharging mechanism of the battery. The inactivation of the battery's electrolyte at low-temp and the premature termination of the battery charge were the main cause. After long error and trial, we improved these problems by improving performance of battery and optimizing the charging algorithm of BCCU. Results: It was confirmed that the problems of starting up failures were solved through the combined performance test of the battery and BCCU, the ground test using the aircraft system and the operation test conducted by Korea Airforce operating unit for 3 months in winter. Conclusion: This study showed that the improvement of quality reliability was achieved and thus the start-up performance issue of the light attacker has been resolved at low temperature. And it is expected that the design methodologies of temperature-affected electrical system of aircraft will contribute to the development of the aircraft industry in the future.

  • This paper aims to compare difference with the in an ability of their resistance and survival against in a non-specific defence mechanism of the olive flounder, between the virulent and the avirulent E. tarda strains. The tested E. tarda strains, we divided into the virulent and the avirulent strain groups on the basis of a value of 50% lethal dose (LD50) for the olive flounder weighed 10.3 g in average. The strains of LD50 101.6~104.2 cfu/fish were grouped as virulent strains, such as KE-1, KE-3, KE-5 and FSW910410. The group of avirulent strains as LD50 exceeded 108.7 cfu/fish were included the strains, SU100 and AL92448. A test was conducted to understand the survival ability of each strain in the mucus of the skin and the intestine of olive flounders. The results showed KE-1, KE-3, KE-5 and FSW910410 were highly to survive between 6 hours and 24 hours in intestine. The survival ability in the bile of olive flounder the number of avirulent strains declined during incubation but the virulent strain showed the number of alive bacteria having sustained or increased. In the test for the survival of bacteria in fresh sera of olive flounder, the virulent strains also had tendency to multiply. Concerning the tested bacteria internalization into the head kidney macrophages and the intracellurar replication in the macrophages of olive flounder. The virulent strains exhibited strong internalization, followed high rate replication. According to the results, virulent strains of E. tarda revealed more ability to resist and survive in the face of humoral and cellular defence factors than avirulent strains.

  • Innate defence mechanism in plants can be triggered and enhanced by certain agents, referred as inducers against broad range of pathogens. In the present study, Dravya (a sea weed extract) was highly compatible with commonly available synthetic fungicides, Bavistin and Dithane M-45. Incidence of Alternaria padwickii and Bipolaris oryzae was also reduced to a greater extent in the paddy seed samples in Dravya treatment. Dravya also enhanced the seed germination and seedling vigour. Seedlings of treated samples also showed enhanced activity of peroxidase upon challenge inoculation with Alternaria padwickii. The enzyme activity was two fold high after the inoculation of pathogen. The suppression in disease incidence in growing plants indicated the promising effect of Dravya and Dithane M-45 under green-house condition.

  • To compare the respiratory burst activity potential of the phagocytes isolated from head kidney, spleen, and peripheral blood 1ll cultured rockfish (Sebastes schlegeli), chemiluminescent (CL) response analysis was performed. The phagocytes isolated from peripheral blood showed greater and faster CL response to the opsonized zymosan compared to that of the phagocytes isolated from kidney or spleen. This may imply a significant role of the blood phagocytes in defence mechanism of rockfish. The different responses found in the CL analysis among the phagocytes isolated from peripheral blood, kidney, and spleen may reflect differences in activation state or activity of phagocytes.

  • This study was designed to observe the effect of tohiene pretreatment on leukocyte variation in whole blood and the oxygen free radical generating, scavenging enzyme activities in neutrophil of bacteria infected rats. Toluene was administered 7 times intraperitoneally at levels of 9.45 mM/kg body weight to the rats and then infected with S. aureus $2\times10^7$ cfu/ml. The toluene treated-rats showed the significantly decreased numbers of lymphocyte and monocytes, but the similiar numbers of neutrophils with the control. Furthermore the increased neutrophils in blood of bacteria infected rats were reduced by the toluene pretreatment. Concomitantly the increased activities of xanthine oxidase and superoxide dismutase in neutrophil of bacteria infected rats were also decreased by the toluene pretreatment. On the other hand, injection of benzaldehyde to rats also led to similiar results in the count of leukocytes, xanthine oxidase and superoxide dismutase activities of neutrophil with those of toluene treated rats. These data suggest that toluene and its intermediate metabolite, benzaldehyde influence on the phagocytosis and defence mechanism of neutrophil.

  • An integration system with multi-measurement sets can be realized via combined application of a centralized and federated Kalman filter. It is difficult for the centralized Kalman filter to remove a failed sensor in comparison with the federated Kalman filter. All varieties of Kalman filters monitor innovation sequence (residual) for detection and isolation of a failed sensor. The innovation sequence, which is selected as an indicator of real time estimation error plays an important role in adaptive mechanism design. In this study, the centralized Kalman filter with adaptive measurement fusion is introduced by means of innovation sequence. The objectives of adaptive measurement fusion are automatic isolation and recovery of some sensor failures as well as inherent monitoring capability. The proposed adaptive filter is applied to the GPS/SDINS integration system with an additional sensor. Simulation studies attest that the proposed adaptive scheme is effective for isolation and recovery of immediate sensor failures.

  • The present study examined the alterations in endogenous oxy-radical scaverging system of pancreatic tissue associated with the dose of 45 mg/kg steptozotocin (STZ) alone or with various combinations. The activities of pancreatic Min-superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase were no apparent changes in the other groups except for the Cu(II) 4 mg/kg pretreated group. The presence of 4 mg/kg of Cu(II) with or without 125 mg /kg of diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) markedly attenuated the fall in activity of Cu, Zn-Sod by STZ stress. In particular, STZ-induced superoxide generation was dramatically abolished by prior administration of Cu(II) 4 mg/kg. Conculsively, We suggested the possible involvement that copper may enhance the defence mechanism of pancreatic oxidative damage by STZ challenge.

  • This study was designed to find out the effect of Nosema spore on oxidative damages and antioxidant defence in the midgut of tasar silkworm Antheraea mylitta. Higher level of lipid peroxidation (LPX) and total hydroperoxides indicate the resultant oxidative stress in the Nosema exposed specimen. Increased superoxide dismutase (SOD) suggests activation of physiological mechanism to scavenge the superoxide radical produced during Nosema infection. Higher activities of catalase and glutathione-S-tranferase on $18^{th}$ d indicate adaptive behaviour of the tissue against oxyradicals. The results suggest that Nosema infection is involved in altering the active oxygen metabolism by modulating LPX and reactive oxygen species (ROS), which is indicative of pebrine disease disorder.

  • In passive sonar, underwater moving objects are identified by the acoustic sounds they transmit. The spectrum of these sounds show features about the mechanism of the sound source, these features are discrete frequencies on the spectrum and frequency lines on the spectrogram. Variability in the underwater environment produce discontinuous broken or unstable fluctuating frequency lines. In this paper, we propose an efficient algorithm that estimate continuities of the discontinuous frequency lines and extract presence of the unstable frequency lines using neural networks and represent the proposed algorithm shows good performance in estimation and extraction the unstable frequency lines through the experiments.
