  • The word of stress crime from Latin language as stringere and it was used in medical fields from 1935. According to Selye, all the biological bodies reveal physilolgical changes when some stimulation exceed normal levels, and consequently the pituitary gland and adrenal systems are activated. Jacob expressed that stress is the loss of homeostasis by physical, chemical, and emotional stimulation. When biological organisms receive extreme stress the amount of catecholamine excretion are increase. Author investigated the catecholamine contents in rat urine after giving the low temperature stress, noise stress, and water immersion stress. The 24 hours rat urine was collected by adding 1 ml 6 N-HCl and the sample is passed through Bio-Rex 70 samples treatment column to extract catecholamine and detected the catecholamine with HPLC-fluorescence detetor. The highest epinephrine concentration was 67.14 ng in water immersion stress condition and the dopamine concentration of 221.37 ng was shown in the low temperature stress condition.

  • In the present study, design methodologies for effective width of slabs in slab-column connections were evaluated in comparison with the experimental results on the full-scale slab-column connections. The design methodologies are as follows: the methodology proposed by Jacob S. Grossman and the methodology proposed by Choi & Song. The former does not predict the stiffness change of the slab-column connection due to the change in the column section shape and the latter overestimates the stiffness when edge length of the column section in the loading direction is long. Accordingly, the equation to calculate the effective width of slabs should be modified to reflect the effect of the change in the column section shape.

  • Tree-harvesting worker data of 508 separate worker accidents are analyzed and an exploratory approach taken. The worker accident data cover a sample of five years. The scope of the study was the southeastern United States of America. As might be hypothesized, the chainsaw was the most hazardous type of tree-harvesting equipment. It accounted for 55% of the tree-harvesting accidents. Most chainsaw accidents resulted in injuries to the lower extremities and were more frequent among younger employees. The probability of one or more chainsaw accidents occurring in any 30-day period was approximately 0.856. Chainsaw accidents were more likely to occur in late morning and early afternoon. We used statistical tools such as Pareto charts, c-charts and Ishikawa diagrams. Such tools are useful in diagnosing the root-cause of tree-harvesting worker accidents and help in developing preventive safety programs. Recommendations to help improve the quality of information of accident data collected by insurance companies and others are briefly given. The strategy and culture of continuous process improvements are stressed.

  • Alpha-glucosidase inhibitor, 1-deoxynojirimycin, has been shown to eliminate the production of ER-budding viruses in the ER of host cell. This glucose-derived iminosugar derivative, 1-DNJ, has been largely purified from midgut of silkworm, Bombyx mori, Here, we have screened the antiviral activity in the GBV-B infected marmoset hepatocyte cell line.

  • The effect of heat conduction resistance on laminar film condensation of the pure saturated vapor in forced flow over a flat plate has been investigated as boundary layer solutions. A efficient numerical methods for water are proposed for its solution. The momentum and energy balance equations are reduced to a nonlinear system of ordinary differential equations with four parameters: the Prandtl number, Pr, Modified Jacob number, $Ja^{\ast}/Pr$, defined by an overall temperature difference, a property ratio $\sqrt{P_l{\mu}_l/P_v{\mu}_v}$ and the conjugate parameter ${\zeta}$. The similarity and simplified solutions obtained reveal the effects of the conjugate parameter.

  • Many farmers apply cattle slurry on grassland, often in excess of crop N requirements, resulting in groundwater contamination. Our research objective was the development of grassland management systems that reduce undesirable sideeffects on other compartment of the ecosystem. Field experiment was conducted during 1991~1993 on sandy loam soil at AllgZiu south western Germany. Different sets of conditions were tested such as : zero fertilization, reduced sluny application$(l20kg N ha^{-1}yr^{-1})$, intensive sluny application(conventional sluny application, $240kg N ha^{-1}yr^{-1}$). The plots of the reduced slurry application had no significant effect on dry matter yields, digestible dry matter and net energy of herbage. Dry matter yield of zero fertilization was significantly lower than that of usual slurry application, however the content of Ca and Mg in herbage tended to increase. We conclude that reduced sluny application can be applied on grassland without adverse effects on dry matter production and quality of herbage.

  • The augmenting hydrologic data using a correlation procedue has been used to improve the estimates of the mean and variance at the site of interest with short record when one or more nearby sites with longer records are available. The variance of the unbiased maximum likelihood estimator of ${{\sigma}_v}^2$ derived by Moran based on the multivariate normal distribution is modified into the form of Matalas and jacobs for the bivariate normal distribution to get the critical minimum values of the multiple correlation coefficient which give the improvement for estimation the variance at the site of interest. Those values are tabulated for various lengths of records and the number of sites.

  • This experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of cutting frequency and nitrogen fertilization on th change of vegetation and the yield of dry matter on the different mixture combination of permanent pasture. 1. DM yield was increased as the increasing Arrhenatherum elntius but was decreased as the increasing Tkisetum fkavescens. 2. DM yield was unaffectdd by the different mixture combination of permanent pasture eventually. 3. In case of cutting frequency, 2-cutting showed higher DM yield than that of 3-cutting, and N-fertilization level showed significant increase in DM yield as the increasing N-level, especially 2-cutting block of N-3 showed the highest yield and 3-cutting block of N-l showed the lowest yield. 4. Mixture combination, N-level and cutting frequency did not show significant changes in DM yield of permanent pasture eventually.
