In order to determine whether green tea tannin ameliorates abnormal arginine metabolism as the result of excessive arginine, we have assessed the effects of the administration of green tea tannin mixture in rats treated 30 days with 2% arginine. In the arginine-treated group, the level of guanidino compounds such as arginine (Arg), guanidinoacetic acid (GAA), creatinine (Cr), methylguanidine (MG) and guanidinosuccinic acid (GSA), nitric oxide, urea, protein and glucose increased significantly in the serum, urine and kidney, whereas the oxygen species-scavenging enzymes of kidney were reduced as compared with the non-arginine-treated group. By way of contrast, the administration of green tea tannin reduced blood urea nitrogen and serum creatinine, and reduced the urinary excretion of guanidinoacetic acid, creatinine, and $NO_2^-+NO_3^-$. The increased levels of urinary urea, protein and glucose in the arginine-treated group were also lowered by the administration of green tea tannin. In these groups, the activities of superoxide dismutase and catalase in the kidney were increased, thereby suggesting the involvement of radicals in the normalizing of kidney function. These results show that the abnormal renal function induced by the adminstration of excessive arginine in rats may be restored by treatment with green tea tannin.

With rapid economic growth, the urban environment has created a problem of human physical and mental illness. In order to solve these problems, urban forests have emerged as a way to mitigate the environmental risks through improving the polluted environment of the city and improve the quality of life. As the urban forests have expanded, the school forests movement has also been taking an important place recently. The study focused on the performance of school forests by comparing the perceptions among teachers and students about their functions. The questionnaire was composed of 4 questions concerning human matters, 10 questions for space recognition, 4 questions for thermal environment, 2 questions for health promotion, and 20 total questions for composition of survey items. The reliability of the school forest function, number of tree planting areas and quantities, the harmony of the planting, and the satisfaction of the school forest were analyzed in the questionnaire conducted by the school members. Although it does not recognize school forests, it has a positive response to the green space that is built outdoors. It is considered that outdoor education and environmental education are sufficient in school forests and green spaces. The results showed that the outdoor green space was more satisfactory when compared with the general school. Teachers and students' preferences were similar to 'seasonal changes' and' trees of various colors and shapes'. The reliability analysis between each item shows that the coefficient for cronbach's ${\alpha}$ was .700 to .834. The purpose of this study is to identify the perception of forest function among school forest members and to utilize them as a basic data in the future.

본 논문에서는 그린 함수(Green's function) 방법을 이용하여 하나의 페라이트 디스크를 사용하는 4 단자 스트립라인 서큘레이터 설계 방법을 제안한다. 통신 시스템 설계의 유연성을 높일 수 있는 4 단자 서큘레이터는 이제까지 2개의 3 단자 서큘레이터를 연결하여 사용하고 있다. 이를 하나의 페라이트 디스크를 사용하는 4 단자 서큘레이터로 대체하면 무게와 부피를 감소시킬 수 있어서 위성용으로 장점을 갖는다.

In this paper, we considered the following four-point boundary value problem $\{{x"(t)+h(t)f(t,x(t),x'(t))=0,\;0<t<1\atop%20x'(0)=ax(\xi),\;x'(1)=bx(\eta)}\$. where $0\;<\;{\xi}\;<\;{\eta}\;<\;1,\;{\delta}\;=\;ab{\xi}\;-\;ab{\eta}\;+\;a\;-\;b\;<\;0,\;0\;<\;a\;<\;\frac{1}{\xi},\;0\;<\;b\;<\;\frac{1}{\eta}$. After the discussion of the Green function of the corresponding homogeneous system, we establish some criteria for the existence of positive solutions by using the generalized Leggett-William's fixed point theorem. The interesting point is the expression of the Green function, which is a difficulty for multi-point BVP.

학부생들이 쉽게 사용할 수 있는 기법인 반복 그린함수 방법(IGFM)을 이용하여 복잡한 전자파 도파관 구조를 이론적으로 해석한다. IGFM은 그린함수와 반복법을 이용한다. IGFM의 간단한 공식화를 위해 단순한 수학 방정식만을 사용한 물리적인 메커니즘을 이용한다. 전형적인 전자파 도파관 구조인 평행판 E평면 T접합에 대한 산란 특성을 IGFM 관점에서 이론적으로 공식화한다. 수치해석 결과를 주파수에 대한 반사와 투과 전력 관점에서 보인다. 우세모드 해를 유도하고 그 결과를 고차모드에 의한 해와 비교한다.

본 연구에서는 반무한 직선 계면균열의 상하면에 임의로 분포하는 어떠한 하 중에 대해서도 그 해석이 가능한 그린함수(Green's function)를 구하고자 한다. 이 를 위하여 반무한 직선 계면균열상의 임의의 한 점에 평면 집중하중이 작용하는 문제 와 비평면 집중전단하중이 작용하는 문제를 각각 택하였고, 이때 계면균열의 선단은 열려있다고 가정하였다. 이 문제를 풀므로써 균열선단부근의 응력성분을 결정하고 이로부터 그린함수의 의미를 지니는 응력강도계수에 대한 폐형해를 얻었다.

A Krawtchouk polynomial is introduced as the classical Mac-Williams identity, which can be expressed in weight-enumerator-free form of a linear code and its dual code over a Hamming scheme. In this paper we find a new explicit expression for the $p$-number and the $q$-number, which are more generalized notions of the Krawtchouk polynomial in the P-polynomial schemes by using an extended version of a discrete Green's function. As corollaries, we obtain a new expression of the Krawtchouk polynomial over the Hamming scheme and the Eberlein polynomial over the Johnson scheme. Furthermore, we find another version of the MacWilliams identity over a Hamming scheme.

A Green's function approach based on the laminate theory is adopted to obtain the unsteady temperature distributions in a semi-infinite hollow circular cylinder made of functionally graded materials (FGMs). The transient heat conduction equation based on the laminate theory is formulated into an eigenvalue problem for each layer by using the eigenfunction expansion theory and the separation of variables. The eigenvalues and the corresponding eigenfunctions obtained by solving an eigenvalue problem for each layer constitute the Green's function solution for analyzing the unsteady temperature distributions. Numerical calculations are carried out for the semi-infinite hollow circular FGM cylinder subjected to partially heated loads, and the numerical results are shown in figures.

This paper proposes an exact numerical method for analyzing a dipole antenna attached on a dielectric slab. A Green's function for an infinitesimal current filament on a dielectric slab is derived and a field integral equation is formulated using a boundary condition. The moment Method is used to solve the field integral equation to otain current distribution on the antenna. Since an asymptotic function is used to compute the impedance matrix elements, the computataion time is significantly reduced. Using the computed current distributions, the input impedances, the resonance lengths and the resonant resistances of the antennas for various values of the thichnessandthe dielectric constant of the slab are obtained. It was found that the resonant length and the resonant resistance are decrease monotonically as the dielectric constant increases, however, those are changed up-and-down as the substrate thickness increases.

An improved boundary element method is presented for numerical analysis of hydrodynamic behavior of marine structures. A new algorithm for numerical solution of the finite depth free-surface Green function in three dimensions is developed based on multiple series representations. The whole range of the key parameter R/h is divided into four regions, within which different representation is used to achieve fast convergence. The well-known epsilon algorithm is also adopted to accelerate the convergence. The critical convergence criteria for each representation are investigated and provided. The proposed method is validated by several well-documented benchmark problems.
