Numerical simulations have been conducted to study the unstart/restart characteristics of an over-under turbine-based combined-cycle propulsion system (TBCC) inlet during the inlet transition phase. A dual-solution area exists according to the Kantrowitz theory, in which the inlet states may be different even with the same input parameters. The entire transition process was divided into five stages and the unstart/restart hysteresis loop for each stage was also obtained. These loops construct a hysteresis surface which separates the operating space of the engine into three parts: in which a) inlet can maintain a started state; b) inlet keeps an unstarted state; c) inlet state depends on its initial state. During the transition, the operation of the engine follows a certain order with different backpressures and splitter angles, namely control route, which may result in disparate inlet states. Nine control routes with different backpressures and transition stages were designed to illuminate the route-dependent behavior of the inlet. The control routes operating towards the unstart boundary can make the inlet transit from a started state into an unstarted one. But operating backward the same route cannot make the inlet restart, additional effort should be made.

Bacterial isolates, CC178, PTC25, HC39 and KY165 originally obtained from the leaves of cucumber or tomato were selected for biocontrol agents against gray mold of cucumber and tomato by in vivo cucumber seedling assay. Each suspension of the selected epiphytic bacteria were sprayed three times at seven-day interval from early stage of cucumber in a field. Incidence of gray mold on cucumber fruits treated with isolates CC178, PTC25, HC39 and KY165 was 15.3％, 18.2％, 23.6％, and 10.4％, respectively, whereas that of control was 38.0％ after 7 days of final spray. On the other hand, treatment with the selected isolates, CC178, PTC25, HC39, and KY165 on tomato showed 2.2％, 1.3％, 2.9％, and 3.5％ in the incidence of gray mold on leaves, whereas that of control was 9.3％. All selected isolates had strong antagonistic activity against Botrytis cinerea on dual culture plate assay.

This paper presents a new kind of digital control metal halide lamp electronic ballast. A zero-voltage-switch quasi-square-wave (ZVS-QSW) dual Buck converter is adopted here. In this paper, a digital control method is proposed to achieve ZVS for the converter. This ZVS can be realized during the whole working condition. Single-cycle-peak-current control is proposed to solve the problem of excessive inductor current during a low-frequency reversal transient. Power loop control is also realized and its consistency for different lamps is good. An AVR special microcontroller for a HID ballast is used to raise the control performance, and the low-frequency square-wave control method is adopted to avoid acoustic resonance. A 70W prototype was built in the laboratory. Experimental results show that the electronic ballast works reliably. Furthermore, the efficiency of the ballast can be higher than 92%.

An 1.8V 6bit IGSPS ADC for high speed data acquisition is discussed in this paper. This ADC is based on a flash ADC architecture because the flash ADC is the only practical architecture at conversion rates of IGSPS and beyond. A straightforward 6bit full flash A/D converter consists of two resistive ladders with 63 laps, 63 comparators and digital blocks. One important source of errors in flash A/D converter is caused by the capacitive feedthrough of the high frequency input signal to the resistive reference-lauder. Consequently. the voltage at each tap of the ladder network can change its nominal DC value. This means large transistors have a large parasitic capacitance. Therefore, a dual resistive ladder with capacitor is employed to fix the DC value. Each resistive ladder generates 32 clean reference voltages which alternates with each other. And a two-stage amplifier is also used to reduce the effect of the capacitive feedthrough by minimizing the size of MOS connected to reference voltage. The proposed ADC is based on 0.18${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ 1-poly 6-metal n-well CMOS technology, and it consumes 307㎽ at 1.8V power supply.

Metformin or sodium salicylate is known to induce apoptosis and G0/G1 phase arrest in a variety of cancer cells. However, the anti-cancer effects of the combined treatments for these drugs-induced apoptosis are yet unclear. Here, we found that the combined treatment of metformin and sodium salicylate increased the efficacy of chemotherapeutics against breast cancer cells. These combined drugs significantly inhibited cellular proliferation and induced apoptosis at an earlier stage in human MCF-7 breast cancer cells. Also, co-treatments of metformin and sodium salicylate induced G1 cell cycle arrest in MCF-7 cells more effectively than either agent alone. Taken together, these results demonstrate that dual metformin/sodium salicylate treatment prevents proliferation of MCF-7 cells by inducing apoptosis and G1 cell cycle arrest.

In order to analyze the intracellu1ar localization of specific RNA components of ribonucleoproteins (RNP) in Xenopus oocytes, a modified protocol of whole-mount in situ Hybridization is presented in this paper, Mitochondria specific 12S rRNA probe was used to detect the amplification and distribution of mitochondria in various stages of the oocyte life cycle, and the results were found to be consistent with previously known distribution of mitochondria. The results with other specific probes (U1 and U3 small nuclear RNAs, and 5S RNA) also indicate that this procedure is generally effective in localizing RNAs in RNP complexes even inside organelles. In addition, the RNA component of RNase MRP, the RNP with endoribo-nuclease activity, localize to the nucleus in various stages of the oocyte life cycle. Some of MRP RNA, however, were found to be localized to the special population of mitochondria near the nucleus, especially in the active stage of mitochondrial amplification. It suggests dual localization of RNase MRP in the nucleus and mitochondria, which is consistent with the proposed roles of RNase MRP in mitochondrial DNA replication and in rRNA processing in the nucleolus.

This paper presents a novel soft-switching PWM utility frequency AC to high frequency AC power conversion circuit incorporating boost H-bridge inverter topology, which is more suitable and acceptable for cost effective consumer induction heating applications. The operating principle and the operation modes are presented using the switch mode equivalent circuits and the operating voltage and current waveforms. The performances of this high-frequency inverter using the latest IGBTs are illustrated, which includes high frequency power regulation and actual efficiency characteristics based on zero voltage soft-switching(ZVS) operation ranges, and the power dissipation as compared with those of the conventional type high frequency inverter. In addition, a dual mode control scheme of this high frequency inverter based on asymmetrical pulse width modulation(PWM) and pulse density modulation(PDM) control scheme is discussed in this paper in order to extend the soft switching operation ranges and to improve the power conversion efficiency at the low power settings. The power converter practical effectiveness is substantially proved based on experimental results from practical design example.

The changes in microstructure and texture during annealing were examined in a series of 0.015% C-1.5% Mn cold-rolled sheet steels with 0~0.5% Mo. Orientation distribution function data were calculated from the (110), (200), (211) pole figures determined on the rolled plane of cold-rolled and annealed steel sheets. Regardless of Mo content and annealing conditions, martensite volume fraction was less than 1.0%, not affecting the texture evolution. Textural change at the cooling stage after heating at $820^{\circ}C$ for 67 sec was not observed. Increasing the Mo content and annealing temperature markedly strengthened the intensities of ${\gamma}$-fiber texture, resulting in the increase in $r_m$ value. The desirable texture evolution for deep drawability in the 0.5% Mo steel may be mainly caused by the grain refining effect of Mo carbide in the hot-rolled steel sheet.

How to determine the right number of small base stations to activate in multi-cell uplinks to match traffic from a fixed quantity of K users is an open question. This paper analyses the uplink cooperative that jointly receives base stations activation to explore this question. This paper is different from existing works only consider transmitting power as optimization objective function. The global objective function is formulated as a summation of two terms: transmitting power for data and coordinated overhead for control. Then, the joint base stations activation and beamforming problem is formulated as a mixed integer second order cone optimization. To solve this problem, we develop two polynomial-time distributed methods. Method one is a two-stage solution which activates no more than K small base stations (SBSs). Method two is a heuristic algorithm by dual decomposition to MI-SOCP that activates more SBSs to obtain multiple-antennae diversity gains. Thanks to the parallel computation for each node, our methods are more computationally efficient. The strengths and weaknesses of these two proposed two algorithms are also compared using numerical results.
