The effects of characteristic condition number on the convergence of preconditioned Navier-Stokes equations were investigated. The two-dimensional preconditioned Navier-Stokes adopting Choi and Merkle's preconditioning and the temperature preconditioning are considered. Preconditioned Roe's FDS scheme was adopted for spatial discretization and preconditioned LU-SGS scheme was used for time integration. It is shown that the convergence characteristics of the Navier-Stokes equations are strongly affected by the characteristic condition number. Also it is shown that the optimal characteristic condition numbers for viscous flows are larger than that in inviscid flows.

The result as following one was founded that investigate cause and acupuncture point for symptoms of headache, 1. Headache in distinction from doo-pung(頭風) was defined that it' period is short and treatment is easy. 2. The cause of headache was classified according to the interior and exterior cause of the body. 3. Total number of used acupuncture point was one hundred and six, and in order of using time acupuncture point was appeared as LI4(15), LU7(12), GB20(12), BL2(11), GV20(9), TE23(9), SI3(7), GV24(7), GV23(7) 4. The meridian distribution of acupuncture point is appeared as Bladder Meridian(21points), Gallbladder Meridian(18points), Governer vessel(14points), Triple Energizer meridian(12points), Large Intestine Meridian(9points), Small Intestine Meridian(7points), Stomach Meridian(7points) 5. According to headache position, the distribution of acupuncture point was appeared that $Yangmy\breve{o}ng$ $Ky\breve{o}ng$ and Governer vessel was used to frontal headache, Soyang $Ky\breve{o}ng$ to migraine, Taeyang $Ky\breve{o}ng$ and Governer vessel to occipital headache. 6. LI4(合谷) and LU7(列缺) was used to general headache as basic acupuncture point.

Combination of novel technologies with traditional physiotherapy in rehabilitation in injured athletes have shown to provide improved time of recovery. In specific, nanodrugs delivery systems are widely utilized as a counterpart to the physiotherapy in injuries in sports. In the present study, we focus on the common injuries in dance-sports, their recovery and the effect combination of nano-particle drug delivery with the physiotherapy practices. In this regard, a comprehensive review on the common injuries in dance sport is provided. Moreover, the researches on the effectiveness of the nano-particle drug delivery in therapy of such injuries and in similar cases are provided. The possibility of using combination of nano-particle drug delivery and physiotherapy is discussed in detail. Finally, using artificial intelligence methods, predictions on the recovery time and after-treatment side-effects is investigated. Artificial Neural Network (ANN) predictions suggested that using nano-particle drug delivery systems along with physiotherapy practices could provide shortened treatment time to recovery in comparison to conventional drugs. Moreover, the post-recover effects are less than the conventional methods.

In this work, we consider a finite difference operator $L^2_N$ corresponding to $$Lu:=-(u_{xx}+u_{yy})\;in\;{\Omega},\;u=0\;on\;{\partial}{\Omega}$$, in $S_{h^2,1}$. We derive the relation between the absolute value of the bilinear form $l_{N^2}$(u, v) on $S_{h^2,1}{\times}S_{h^2,1}$ and Sobolev $H^1$ norms.

In this note, we completely characterize the reducing subspaces of $T_{{z^N_1}{z^M_2}}$ on $A^2_{\alpha}(D^2)$ where ${\alpha}$ > -1 and N, M are positive integers with $N{\neq}M$, and show that the minimal reducing subspaces of $T_{{z^N_1}{z^M_2}}$ on the unweighted Bergman space and on the weighted Bergman space are different.

The crystal structure of $[Co(phen)_2(Cl)(H_2O)] Clㆍ2H_2O$(phen=1,10-phenanthroline) has been determined by X-ray crystallography. It crystallizes in the triclinic system, space group P1, with lattice parameters a=9.662(2), b=11.445(1), c=13.037(2)${\AA}$ ${\alpha}$=64.02(1), ${\beta}$=86.364(9), ${\gamma}=78.58(2)^°$, and Z=2. The coordinated cations contain a six-coordinated cobalt atom chelated by two phen ligands and one chloride anion and one water ligand in cis arrangement. In addition to the chloride coordinated to the cobalt, there are one chloride ion and four water molecules which complete the crystal structure. In the solid state, the title compound forms three dimensional network structure through hydrogen bonds, within which exists the strongest hydrogen bond (O(3)-O(4)=2.33${\AA}$). The intermolecular hydrogen bonds connect the $[Co(phen)_2(Cl)(H_2O)]1+,\;H_2O$ moieties and chloride ion.

Natural killer (NK) cells play an important role in anti-tumor immunity. Interleukin (IL)-18 is an immunoregulatory cytokine that induces potent NK cell-dependent anti-tumor responses when administrated with other cytokines. In this study, we explored the effects of combining IL-18 and IL-2 on NK cytotoxicity as well as expression levels of the NK cell receptor NKG2D in vitro. Freshly isolated PBMCs were incubated for 48 h with IL-18 and IL-2, then CD107a expression on $CD3^-CD56^+$ NK cells was determined by three-colour flow cytometry to evaluate the cytotoxicity of NK cells against human erythroleukemia K562 cells and human colon carcinoma HT29 cells. Flow cytometric analysis was also employed to determine NKG2D expression on NK cells. The combined use of IL-18 and IL-2 significantly increased CD107a expression on NK cells compared with using IL-18 or IL-2 alone, suggesting that the combination of these two cytokines exerted synergistic enhancement of NK cytotoxicity. IL-18 also enhanced NKG2D expression on NK cells when administered with IL-2. In addition, blockade of NKG2D signaling with NKG2D-blocking antibody attenuated the up-regulatory effect of combining IL-18 and IL-2 on NK cytolysis. Our data revealed that IL-18 synergized with IL-2 to dramatically enhance the cytolytic activity of human NK cells in a NKG2D-dependent manner. The results appear encouraging for the use of combined IL-18 and IL-2 in tumor immunotherapy.

Reaction-bonded silicon nitrides containing rare-earth oxide sintering additives were densified by gas pressure sintering. The sintering behavior, microstructure and mechanical properties of the resultant specimens were analyzed. For that purpose, $Lu_2O_3-SiO_2$ (US), $La_2O_3$-MgO (AM) and $Y_2O_3-Al_2O_3$ (YA) additive systems were selected. Among the tested compositions, densification of silicon nitride occurred at the lowest temperature when using the $La_2O_3$-MgO system. Since the $Lu_2O_3-SiO_2$ system has the highest melting temperature, full densification could not be achieved after sintering at $1950^{\circ}C$. However, the system had a reasonably high bending strength of 527 MPa at $1200^{\circ}C$ in air and a high fracture toughness of 9.2 $MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}$. The $Y_2O_3-Al_2O_3$ system had the highest room temperature bending strength of 1.2 GPa.

Using a matrix method, pp. Antosik and C. Swartz have obtained a series of nice properties of bounded multiplier convergent (BMC) series on metric linear spaces ([1],[8],[9]). In this paper, we establish a basic property of BMC series on topological vector spaces which is a generalization of a result due to J. Batt([2], Th.2). From this, we have obtained a kind of inclusion theorem of operator spaces. This theorem yields a nice result on infinite systems of linear equations.
