  • In this paper, a dual-band Koch Snowflake antenna is proposed for wireless communication systems. Fractal geometry, CPW-feed and stepped ground planes are used to improve the impedance bandwidth. By properly introducing a hexagonal split-ring slot to radiating element, a lower frequency band is generated. The proposed structure is fabricated and tested. Experiment results exhibit dual-band of 0.73-0.98 GHZ and 1.6-3.1 GHz which makes this antenna suitable candidate for GSM900, GSM1800, UTMS2100, Wi-Fi 2400 and LTE2600 bands. In addition, a good radiation pattern, a satisfactory peak gain and a radiation efficiency, which reaches 95%, are achieved.

  • Poria cocos is a natural substance known to have anticancer, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. The aim of this study is to investigate the analgesic effects of Poria cocos extract (PCE). We evaluated the analgesic effects of PCE using adjuvant induced arthritis rat model. Male SD rats were administered intra-orally with PCE according to prescribed dosage, during 6 days. After 6 days later, serum TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 levels were measured by ELISA. In our experiment, administration of PCE decreased TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and PGE2 level in serum. Furthermore, it was confirmed that allodynia was relieved in evaluation of pain behavior. It was confirmed that administration of PCE reduces nociceptive pain by reducing nociceptive stimuli by acting as an anti-inflammatory drug.

  • This study aims to know the effect of water-extracted horseradish Moringa oleifera leaf and KW21 fertilizer combination application on the density of Nannochloropsis sp. It was conducted in the Natural Food Laboratory of State Polytechnique, Tual. The experiment used complete randomized design with 5 treatments and 3 replications: A (25% horseradish leaf extract + 75% KW21), B (50% horseradish leaf extract + 50% KW21), C (75% horseradish leaf extract + 25% KW21), D (positive control of 100% KW21), and E (negative control of 100% horseradish leaf extract). Results showed that Treatment C yielded the best result, both the highest density of Nannochloropsis sp. and suitable harvest time.

  • Chemistry laboratory class was produced for senior high school freshmen with the cooperation of university staffs, high school teachers and the university students. Although the students who will take the lab class are senior high school freshmen, we decided to prepare four experiments that are simple and have highly visible reactions or transformation. That is, 1) Water purification, 2) Surface modification, 3) Briggs-Rauscher reaction, and 4) Polymer synthesis and characterization. After the safety guideline and experiment instructions by the faculty staffs, two teaching assistants (TAs) supervised each experiment. Since taking a direct part in it will provide stronger impact than only being one who is just watching the experiment, all experiments contained some process that the high school students must handle the reagents, tools or the equipment, by themselves. Although, the operation performed by the students was limited to a series of simple actions, the various unique phenomena presented by the experiments impressed the students. The lab class was fruitful not only for high school students, but also good for university students. The lab class provided good opportunity for them to improve the abilities to teach and guide someone.

  • The role of experiments in science education is essential for understanding the natural phenomena and principle related to a subject. Therefore, the remote control experiment via Internet is one of key solution for distance learners in science education. The remote experiments ate also necessary for the time-consuming experiment which takes several days, collaborative experiment between distance learners, expensive laboratory equipment which is not usually available to students, experimental procedure which is dangerous, etc. In this study, we have developed a general method for a remote control laboratory system using internet and interlace techniques. It is possible for students to learn the nuclear physics to control the real instruments and conduct physics experimentation with internet techniques. We proposed the remote control radiation measurement system as a sample application. This system could be useful for the monitoring near a nuclear power plants in order to improve the environment data credibility to the public.

  • In this paper a detailed description of collecting Korean audio-video speech data is presented. The main aim of this experiment is to collect some audio-video materials which can be used for later experiments to estimate and model the actions of the visible human articulatory organs such as mouth, lips and jaw. We collect audio-video data from seven directions separately. Twelve markers are used to trace the movements.

  • This letter proposes a more advanced joint maximum a posteriori (MAP) adaptation using a prior model based on a probabilistic scheme utilizing the bilinear transformation (BIT) concept. The proposed method not only has scalable parameters but is also based on a single prior distribution without the heuristic parameters of the previous joint BIT-MAP method. Experiment results, irrespective of the amount of adaptation data, show that the proposed method leads to a consistent improvement over the previous method.

  • In order to characterize the migration of DNAPL in rock fractures, the dynamic macromodified invasion percolation (DMMIP) model, that is able to reflect the viscous force of groundwater in a fracture network, is suggested. DMMIP simulations are verified against the laboratory expenments, which shows a good qualitative and quantitative agreement.
