Main attackers on pine seeds on the forest floor were investigated in Korea. Damage on pine cones begins in early stage of cone formation, especially by squirrel and Korean squirrel. The above animals left Kayak-like hulls of seed on rocks and fallen tree trunk. Field mice also left the same shape of Kayak-like hulls. But birds including doves and peasants left large shreds with longitudinal cracks or seed cup trace. Most of seeds on the leaf litters as well as under the fallen leaf were consumed by field mice and birds. Especially field mice found the seeds under fallen leaves and consumed all of them.

Most of seeds on the leaf litters as well as under the fallen leaf were consumed by fold mice and birds. Especially fold mice found the seeds under fallen leaves and consumed all of them.

To identify the characteristics of the dropping habits and to provide improved methods for sign survey of Siberian flying squirrels Pteromys volans, an investigation was carried out in Jirisan National Park from April 2012 to May 2013. The latrines of study area were checked once a month and the characteristics of dropping behavior were camera trapped. The feces of Siberian flying squirrel were found on the point which tree forked, mostly from November to May. The squirrel actively presents in forked tree mainly on the September to April. The Siberian flying squirrel is found to be a typical nocturnal animal as it actively move between 6p.m. to 7a.m.. The study found that squirrel does feeding and dropping in the winter time on forked tree. On the point which tree forked could be a good place for the squirrel to hide from their predator when there is no leaf on the tree. Conducting the sign survey is advisable from November to May, as well as with the careful approach to the animals. As Siberian flying squirrel is an endangered species, adjusting the survey period is mandatory, especially when doing environmental impact assessment and a research on its dwelling areas.

This paper presents the MPPT(Maximum Power Point Tracking)control method of the PMSG wind generation system using the turbine model with a squirrel cage induction motor. The torque of squirrel cage induction turbine model is controlled by mathematization of speed characteristics of real blade. In this paper, maintenance and cost issues into consideration, except for previous method using information of the velocity of the wind speed sensor, the algorithm is presented. The algorithm is controlled by tracking the optimal point, the generator speed and maximum grid power. The vector controls of the generator side converter and the grid side converter are controlled respectively to obtain maximum torque and regulate unity power factor. With Psim simulations and experiments, the efficiency of squirrel cage induction turbine model and the validity of control algorithm are verified.

This paper describes the effects of rotor eccentricity in squirrel cage induction machines. Asymmetric electro-magnetic force caused by the frictional worn bearing, rotor misalignment and unbalanced rotor etc. generates an asymmetrical operation, vibration and electro-magnetic noise. The need for detection of these rotor eccentricities has pushed the development of monitoring methods with increasing sensitivity and noise immunity. In this paper, we focus on investigating the asymmetrical operation considering of unbalanced magnetic pull in squirrel-cage induction motor with 380 [V], 7.5 [kW], 4P, 1,768 [rpm]. The effects of the non-symmetric rotor and magnetic force are simulated by finite element method (FEM) and tested using search coils for measuring the actual air-gap flux.

The squirrel cage three-phase induction motor has been used in all types of industry for a number of years. A series of noise components were identied analytically from the expressions for the node numbers and frequencies of the magnetic force waves, taking into account the stator and rotor sldtting, eccentricity, asymmetric and iron saturation. A method is presented for calculating the magnetic energy distribution of eccentrical and asymmetric the squirrel cage induction motor.

In most cases, simulation of induction machines under dynamic conditions have been based on two-phase models using constant circuit parameters. Squirrel cage induction machines with double rotor bars which are made for high starting torgue have lower rotor bars of sufficient depth they cannot be accurately represented by a constant rotor resistance under all operating condition. In this paper, the circuit of three-phase symmetrical induction machines is represented in two-axis model by tensor. A method for simulating three-phase squirrel cage induction machines in a dynamic conditions is presented, and the current distribution in double rotor bars is calculated under dynamic conditions.

Many techniques have been developed to evaluate the structural integrity for the traction motor with squirrel cage. However, the former approaches are not appropriate to our problems and there is no reliable specification for evaluation of squirrel cage motor. In this study, an improved boundary condition and the criteria for evaluation are proposed. Using 3-dimensional solid element, finite element model is generated. The number of meshes can be reduced by considering the symmetry of geometry. Stress analyses are carried out for three types of traction motors.

The torque characteristic of an induction motor is affected greatly by the slot shape at which the conductors of the rotor are located. In this paper, the three analysis model; general type, deep slot type, double squirrel-cage type, of which the slot shapes are different, were analyzed by FEM at no load, at rated load, and at standstill respectively. The flux distribution and air-gap flux density were also obtained. From the above result, it was confirmed that the analysis models of deep slot and double squirrel-cage had more desirable characteristics than those of general squirrel-cage.

A dead, female, 3 years old, squirrel monkey (Saimiri sciureus) was submitted and examined. Before death the monkey has showed lethargy, recumbency and inappetence since November 14, 2001 and died in November 17. Grossly much fibrin was deposited on the pleura of right lung, pericardium, and diaphragm(pleural part). And reddening of right lung was seen. Histopathologically lung showed severe fibrinous pleuritis, severe edema, thrombosis, and focal necrosis in parenchyma. Also much fibrin and mononuclear cells were deposited on the pericardium. In bacterial culture on the pleura and parenchyma of lung, and pericardium, B. bronchiseptica was isolated. Therefore we confirmed this case as the fatal case by B. bronchiseptica in squirrel monkey.
