In the present work, a computer simulation is performed employing Hottel-Whillier-Bliss model for thermal performance of solar collectors. The major collector parameters examined in the computer simulation are: number of transparent glass covers(N), thermal emissivity of the absorbing plate surface (.epsilon.$_{P}$), absorptivity of absorber plate (.alpha.$_{p}$), flow rate per unit area of collector (G), $L_{b}$ / $k_{b}$ of insulation material, tilt angle of collector (S), and solar insolation(I). By varying numerical values of the major collector parameters around their typical values, the corresponding variations in thermal efficiency curves are examined. In addition, an experimental investigation has been carried out with a slightly modified KAIST collector test loop under a real sun condition in order to compare with the simulation results, examine the applicability of the mathematical model of the collector thermal performance, and study the effect of variation of flow rate (G) on thermal efficiency and the range of optimum flow rate.e.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to ascertain whether radiation adaptive response could be induced by high dose I-131 therapy in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer. Materials and Methods: Lymphocytes from 21 patients (7 males, 14 females, mean age $55{\pm}12$ years) were collected before and after administration of 5,550 MBq (150 mCi) I-131. They were exposed to a challenge dose of 1 Gy gamma rays using a Cs-137 cell irradiator. The number of ring-form (R) and dicentric (D) chromosomes was counted under the light microscope, and used to calculate the frequency of chromosomal aberration. Ydr, which was defined as the sum of R and D divided by the total number of counted lymphocytes. Results: Ydr in patients before I-131 therapy ($0.09{\pm}0.01$) was not different from that of controls ($0.08{\pm}0.01$). Ydr was significantly increased to $0.13{\pm}0.02$ (p<0.0001) after I-131 therapy. Increase of Ydr after the challenge irradiation of 1 Gy was significantly lower in patients after I-131 therapy than before I-131 therapy ($0.17{\pm}0.03\;vs\;0.21{\pm}0.02$, p<0.0001). Cycloheximide (CHM), an inhibitor of protein synthesis, abolished this effect. Ydr after CHM ($0.20{\pm}0.01$) was significantly higher than Ydr after I-131 therapy ($0.17{\pm}0.03$, p<0.0001), but was not different from Ydr before I-131 therapy ($0.21{\pm}0.02$).Conclusion: High dose I-131 therapy induces an adaptive response in peripheral lymphocytes of patients with well-differentiated thyroid cancer, which is associated with protein synthesis.

In this paper, we propose a new method for measuring fine dust through a LoG(Laplacian of Gaussian)-based edge detection technique. CCTV-based images in a video are collected for fine dust measurement, and image ranges are designated through RoI(Region of Interest). After clustering by applying the GMM(Gaussian Mix Model) to the specified area, we detect edge through the LoG algorithm and measure the detected edge strength. The concentration of fine dust is determined based on the measured intensity data of the edge. In this paper, we propose algorithm as the effectiveness of experiment. As a result of collecting and applying CCTV image in the video installed around the laboratory of this school for a month from June to July, the measured result value was proved through this experiment to be sufficient to calculate the concentration and range of fine dust.

Antioxidant activities of ethanol extracts from Kalopanax pictus leaves (KPL) were investigated $in$ $vitro$. Total polyphenols, flavonoids and ferric reducing/antioxidant power (FRAP) values of KPL extracts were $75.9{\pm}6.1$, $59.0{\pm}6.7mg/g$, and $0.3{\pm}0.0mmol\;Fe^2/g$, respectively. KPL extracts showed robust DPPH radical scavenging activity. In addition, the quality characteristics of fried pork skin treated with KPL extracts were also evaluated. Fried pork skin was produced containing KPL extracts at 0, 0.25, 0.5, and 1.0%, respectively. The hardness and TBARS values regarding fried pork skin treated with KPL were reduced by the addition of KPL extracts, whereas collagen content was increased compared to the control. These results suggest the possibility of manufacturing fried fork skin with KPL extracts for the improvement of quality.

In this paper, I seek the chromatic number, the maximum number of colors necessary when adjoining vertices in the plane separated apart at the distance of 1 shall receive distinct colors. The upper limit of the chromatic number has been widely accepted as $4{\leq}{\chi}(G){\leq}7$ to which Hadwiger-Nelson proposed ${\chi}(G){\leq}7$ and Soifer ${\chi}(G){\leq}9$ I firstly propose an algorithm that obtains the minimum necessary chromatic number and show that ${\chi}(G)=3$ is attainable by determining the chromatic number for Hadwiger-Nelson's hexagonal graph. The proposed algorithm obtains a chromatic number of ${\chi}(G)=4$ assuming a Hadwiger-Nelson's hexagonal graph of 12 adjoining vertices, and again ${\chi}(G)=4$ for Soifer's square graph of 8 adjoining vertices. assert. Based on the results as such that this algorithm suggests the maximum chromatic number of a planar graph is ${\chi}(G)=4$ using simple assigned rule of polynomial time complexity to color for a vertex with minimum degree.

The Poly-S $i_{1-x}$G $e_{x}$ thin films were deposited on oxidized Si wafer by RTCVD(rapid thermal chemical vapor deposition) using Si $H_4$and Ge $H_4$, at 450 ~5$50^{\circ}C$. The variation of Ge mole fraction and the deposition rate of S $i_{1-x}$G $e_{x}$ thin film were studied as a function of the deposition temperature and the Ge $H_4$/Si $H_4$input ratio, and the crystal phase and the surface roughness were studied by XRD and AFM(atomic force microscopy), respectively. The experimental results showed that the activation energy for the deposition of poly-S $i_{1-x}$G $e_{x}$ was about 32~37Kca /mol and the deposition rate of S $i_{1-x}$G $e_{x}$ thin films was increased with increasing the deposition temperature and the input ratio. From the analysis of composition, it was known that the Ge mole fraction within the poly-S $i_{1-x}$G $e_{x}$ thin film was decreased with decreasing the input ratio and increasing the deposition temperature. As-deposited S $i_{1-x}$G $e_{x}$ thin films were polycrystalline over the entire experimental range. But those were amorphous at the deposition temperature of 450, 475$^{\circ}C$ and the input ratio of 0.05. By adding the Ge $H_4$, poly-S $i_{1-x}$G $e_{x}$ thin film were deposited at relatively lower deposition temperatures($\leq$ 5$50^{\circ}C$) than those of conventional poly-Si(>$600^{\circ}C$). From surface roughness measurement of poly-S $i_{1-x}$G $e_{x}$ it was found that the surface roughness( $R_{i}$ ) increased with increasing the deposition temperature and input ratio.and input ratio.

To evaluate the reliability of fly ash quality supplied to ready-mixed concrete plant using mass cylinder and hydrometer, in this research, the correlationship between the fly ash properties provided from certification and density measurement with suspension was evaluated. As a result, the reliability of the certification, except fineness and loss on ignition, all properties had a discord. Additionally, in the case of density, fineness, and L.O.I, the relation with the density measured using hydrometer showed high correlation, especially fineness was strongly related with the density measured using hydrometer. Furthermore, according to the comparative analysis with previous research, the fly ash used in this research was similar measurement with raw powder without any refining process, it is considered that the constant error of blaine test or using raw ash sample as a fly ash. In current standard regarding fly ash, the fineness range of class 2 can be changed from $3,000-4,500cm^2/g$ to $3,500-4,500cm^2/g$ for improved quality of fly ash in fineness aspect.

The most generalized form of the triadic operating policy for a controllable M/G/I queueing model is analyzed to obtain fundamental relations among the other forms of operating policies based on its corresponding expected busy period. Since it consists of three decision variables N, T and D, it could be possible to decompose into the simple, the dyadic and other forms of the triadic operating policies. The procedures to decompose the most generalized triadic policy into other forms of operating policies could provide a general methodology to identify each element associated with it.

Bias-dependent noise models of $0.2\mu\textrm{m}$ gate length P-HEMT's which are scalable with gate width are proposed. To predict S-parameters of the P-HEMT's the intrinsic parameters except for $\tau$ subtracted the offsets introduced in this paper are normalized to the gate width and then scaled. The small-signal model parameters are expressed as fitting functions of the drain current to $\textrm{I}_{dss}$ ratio and gate width. In addition, to estimate accurately noise parameters the noise temperature $\textrm{T}_{g}$ of the intrinsic resistance, the equivalent noise conductance $\textrm{G}_{ni}$ of the gate current noise source, and the equivalent noise conductance $\textrm{G}_{no}$ of the drain current noise source are adopted as the noise model parameters. The extracted values of $\textrm{T}_{g}$ are nearly independent of drain current and gate width and their average is around the ambient temperature. The extracted values of $\textrm{G}_{ni}$ are small enough to be neglected to the circuit characteristics. From the comparison of the noise model with only $\textrm{G}_{no}$ and that having $\textrm{T}_{g}$, $\textrm{G}_{ni}$ and $\textrm{G}_{no}$ to the measured data it is fund that even the former model is in good agreement with the measured noise parameters. Thus, from a practical point of view the noise model having only the drain current noise source is confirmed as a scalable bias-dependent model.
