In this Paper, it was designed the GA-fuzzy controller of a Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor(TCSC) for enhancement of power system stability. The newly designed controller of TCSC was designed to overcome the nonlinearity such as operating point change of power system as well as to respond to disturbances as uncertainties of line parameters and line fault. So, fuzzy controller by intelligent control theory was used for it. And the fuzzy controller was optimized from a genetic algorithm for complements the demerit such as the difficulty of the component selection of fuzzy controller namely. scaling factor. membership function and control rules. Nonlinear simulation results show that the proposed control technique is superior to conventional PSS in dynamic responses over the wide range of operating conditions and is convinced robustness and reliableness in view of structure.

The blood - brain barrier (BBB) expresses high concentrations of transferrin receptor, and it was revealed that anti-transferrin receptor mouse monoclonal antibody (OX26) undergoes transcytosis through the BBB. This property allows the OX26 to serve as a brain drug delivery vector. In an attempt to produce broadly useful targeting agents, genetic engineering and expression techniques have been used to produce antibody-avidin (AV) fusion protein (OX26 IgG3C$\_$H/3-AV). In the present study we estimated the BBB permeability and stability of genetically engineered vector.

This experiment was carried out to confirm the stability of bar gene introduced into petunia plant through Agrobacterium-mediated transformation, in successive generation, or after crossing or back-crossing. Some of different 25 transgenic plants were used in crossing and back-crossing to wild type, or repeated-selfing to T$_4$ generation. On the processing of experiment, it was found that some lines lost their resistant ability to herbicide basta, or showed non-Mendelian segregation mode: produced much more susceptible segregants than resistant plants. Even though there are exceptional cases, which was off from expected, the genetic stability of bar gene introduced could be confirmed strongly, because in almost case, the segregation of resistant and susceptible plants to basta was done under Mendelian-law according to single gene dominant model.

In this paper, a novel and robust Power System Stabilizer (PSS) is proposed as an effective approach to improve stability in electric power systems. The dynamic performance of proposed PSS has been thoroughly compared with Conventional PSS (CPSS). Both the Real Coded Genetic Algorithm (RCGA) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) techniques are applied to optimum tune the parameter of both the proposed PSS and CPSS in order to damp-out power system oscillations. Due to the high sufficiency of both the RCGA and PSO techniques to solve the very non-linear objective, they have been employed for solution of the optimization problem. In order to verify the dynamic performance of these devices, different conditions of disturbance are taken into account in Single Machine Infinite Bus (SMIB) power system. Moreover, to ensure the robustness of proposed PSS in damping the power system multi-mode oscillations, a Multi Machine (MM) power system under various disturbances are considered as a test system. The results of nonlinear simulation strongly suggest that the proposed PSS significantly enhances the power system dynamic stability in both of the SMIB and MM power system as compared to CPSS.

Mud tanks used for storing and supplying mud in mud supply systems are essential to secure structural stability according to the mud loads inside the tank. In terms of structural stability of the mud tank can be ensured by increasing the thickness of the structure. However, increasing the thickness may cause a problem of increasing production costs. In addition, this increases the weight of the tank, which can cause problems with the trailer loading weight limitation during transportation. To satisfy both these problems and structural stability, the mud tank should be optimally designed. Therefore, this study conducted an optimum design in consideration of the load of the mud tank through the structural analysis and response surface optimization method in ANSYS.

A GA-based optimum design algorithm and a program for plane steel frame structures with semi-rigid connections are presented. The algorithm is incorporated with the refined plastic hinge analysis method wherein geometric nonlinearity is considered by using the stability functions of beam-column members, and material nonlinearity, by using the gradual stiffness degradation model that includes the effects of residual stresses, moment redistribution through the occurrence of plastic hinges, semi-rigid connections, and geometric imperfection of members. In the genetic algorithm, the tournament selection method and micro-GAs are employed. The fitness function for the genetic algorithm is expressed as an unconstrained function composed of objective and penalty functions. The objective and penalty functions are expressed as the weight of steel frames and the constraint functions, respectively. In particular, the constraint functions fulfill the requirements of load-carrying capacity, serviceability, ductility, and construction workability. To verify the appropriateness of the present method, the optimal design results of two plane steel frames with rigid and semi-rigid connections are compared.

The characteristics of monosporous isolates of winter mushroom [Flammulina velutipes (Curt. ex Fr.)] were investigated to obtain useful breeding materials. Within monokaryons from cultivars which have a white colored fruitbody showed narrow genetic variation, while domestic strains which have a brown colored fruitbody showed wide variation. The mating type of the white strains was A1A2B1B2 genotype, but that of the domestic brown strains were A3A4B3B4. In intra-crossing, the genetic stability of dikaryons mated by monokaryons from white strain was less than that of parents. While in brown strain, dikaryons with high yield and color variation were obtained.

Microsatellites are one of the most suitable markers for identification of variety, as they have the capability to discriminate between narrow genetic variations. The polymorphism level between 120 microsatellite primer pairs and 148 soybean varieties was investigated through the fluorescence based automatic detection system. A set of 16 primer pairs showed highly reproducible polymorphism in these varieties. A total of 204 alleles were detected using the 16 microsatellite markers. The number of alleles per locus ranged from 6 to 28, with an average of 12.75 alleles per locus. The average polymorphism information content (PIC) was 0.86, ranging from 0.75 to 0.95. The unweighted pair group method using the arithmetic averages (UPGMA) cluster analysis for 148 varieties were divided into five distinctive groups, reflecting the varietal types and pedigree information. All the varieties were perfectly discriminated by marker genotypes. These markers may be useful to complement a morphological assessment of candidate varieties in the DUS (distinctness, uniformity and stability) test, intervening of seed disputes relating to variety authentication, and testing of genetic purity in soybean varieties.

Marine yeasts have tremendous potential in industrial applications but have received less attention than terrestrial yeasts and marine filamentous fungi. In this study, we have screened marine yeasts for amylolytic activity and identified an amylase-producing strain PH-Gra1 isolated from sea algae. PH-Gra1 formed as a coral-red colony on yeast-peptone-dextrose (YPD) agar; the maximum radial growth was observed at 22 ℃, pH 6.5 without addition of NaCl to the media. Based on the morphology and phylogenetic analyses derived from sequences of internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and a D1/D2 domain of large subunit of ribosomal DNA, PH-Gra1 was designated Sporidiobolus pararoseus. S. pararoseus is frequently isolated from marine environments and known to produce lipids, carotenoids, and several enzymes. However, its amylolytic activity, particularly the optimum conditions for enzyme activity and stability, has not been previously characterized in detail. The extracellular crude enzyme of PH-Gra1 displayed its maximum amylolytic activity at 55 ℃, pH 6.5, and 0%-3.0% (w/v) NaCl under the tested conditions, and the activity increased with time over the 180-min incubation period. In addition, the crude enzyme hydrolyzed potato starch more actively than corn and wheat starch, and was stable at temperatures ranging from 15 ℃ to 45 ℃ for 2 h. This report provides a basis for additional studies of marine yeasts that will facilitate industrial applications.

Systematic electrophoretic analysis of alcohol-soluble proteins and salt-soluble proteins of 247 Panax ginseng (P.g) and Panax quinquefolium (P.q) germplasms seed was carried out on an improved lactate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, a method with high resolving power, good reproducibility and stability. The electrophoregrams of proteins, according to their migration rate, were classified into four groups such as ${\alpha}$, ${\beta}$, ${\gamma}$ and $\omega$ for the alcohol-soluble proteins and three such as I, II and III for the salt-soluble ones. Panax ginseng or Panax quinquefolium had their own unique band pattern distinguishable from each other, regarding as their specific "fingerprint". In this study, 3 of 168 (1.8%) P.g germplasms and 1 of 79 (1.3%) P.q germplasms had their own unique band pattern, showing that P.g and P.q germplasms have poor genetic diversity in species. The band patterns of dry seed and stratified seed (embryo rate=60%) were basically the same. The band number of the F, hybrid of p.gx p.q was exactly equivalent to the number of the common bands plus the specific bands of the two parents, indicating that the difference of band patterns was a genetic trait con- trolled by the nuclear genes. The electrophoregram of F1 of P.g x P.q could be predicted by that of the two parents and the band pattern of the F1 hybrids could be demnonstrated by that of the mixed seed extract from the two parents.
