Rats were given nicotine (25 ppm) in their drinking water at the start of their mating period in order to study the expressions of glutamate transporter subtypes in cerebellar astrocytes following the chronic exposure of nicotine after mating. After the offspring were delivered, each group was divided into two subgroups. One group, the control group, was given distilled water only and the other group, the experimental group, was given distilled water containing nicotine. The cerebellar astrocytes were prepared from 7 day-old pups at each group. Ten days after the cells were cultured, the expression of the glutamate transporter subtypes (GLAST and GLT-1) was determined using immunochemistry and immunoblotting. During the continuous treatments, the developmental expression patterns of the GLAST and GLT-1 in the cerebellum were also determined from 2, 4 and 8 week-old rats. The expression levels of GLAST in cultured astrocytes of both the pre- or post-natally exposed groups were higher than those of the control group. However, these expression levels of the continuously exposed group were lower than those of the control group. Compared to those of the control group, the GLT-1 expression levels of all the nicotine-treated groups were higher, particularly in the continuously treated group.. According to the results from the immochemistry procedure, the cerebellar GLAST and GLT-1 expression levels of all nicotine-treated groups were lower than those of the control group at each age. However, the immunoblotting procedure showed that the cerebellar GLT-1 expression levels of all the nicotine-treated groups were higher than those of the control group, except for the rats that were continuously exposed for 8 weeks using immunoblotting. These results suggest that the expression of the glial GLAST and GLT-1 are altered differently depending on the initial exposure time and the partcicular period of nicotine exposure. In addition, nicotine exposure during gestation has persistent effects on glial cells.

This study was conducted to investigate for its effects on reproductive and developmental toxicity of recombinant human epidermal growth factor (rhEGF) in Sprague-Dawley rats. Male rats were administered rhEGF at doses of 1, 10, 100, and 1000$\mu$g/kg/day, respective1y, by subcutaneous injection from 63 days before and throughout to mating period until the day before sacrifice. Female rats were administered rhEGF at the same doses from 14 days before mating to day 20 of gestation or to day 21 of lactation. We examined the male and female fertility indices and maternal toxicity of F0 parental animals. Also, we examined the external, visceral, or skeletal malformation of fetuses, growth and development, behavior, and/or reproductive performance of F1 animals. At the highest dose (1,000 $\mu$g/kg), the mean body weights of F0 animals were significantly increased in males and females at 3 or 2 weeks after treatment, respective1y. No clinical signs and food intakes were observed at any time during the experimental period by rhEGF treatment. In autopsy examination, the relative and absolute liver weights significantly increased in both sexes of 1,000 $\mu$g/kg. At the highest dose (1,000 $\mu$g/kg), there was a statistically significant increase of pregnancy period and the number of dead fetuses. Moreover, significant increase of mean fetal body weight and decrease of number of live fetuses, which related to the difficult dilivery were observed in highest dose group. In Fl examination, no adverse effects on external, visceral, and skeletal malformation, physical and functional development, behavior or reproductive ability of Fl animals were observed in any group. Also, there was no significant difference between control and treated groups in copulation or fertility indices of Fl animals. These results indicate that rhEGF had no adverse effect on fertility and reproductive ability of Sprague-Dawley rats.

The bonding phenomenon and mechanism in the transient liquid phase bonding(TLP Bonding) of directionally solidified Ni base superalloy, GTD-111 was investigated. At the bonding temperature of 1403K, liquid insert metal was eliminated by isothermal solidification which was controlled by the diffusion of B and Si into the base metal and solids in the bonded interlayer grew epitaxially from mating base metal inward the insert metal. The number of grain boundaries formed at the bonded interlayer was corresponded with those of base metal. The liquation of grain boundary and dendrite boundary occurred at 1433K. At the bonding temperature of 1453K which is higher than liquation temperature of grain boundary, liquids of the Insert metal were connected with liquated grain boundaries and compositions in each region mixed mutually. In Joints held for various time at 1453t phases formed at liquated grain boundary far from the interface were similar to those of bonded interlayer. With prolonged holding time, liquid phases decreased gradually and liquids of continuous band shape divided many island shape. But liquid phases did not disappeared after holding for 7.2ks at 1453k. Isothermal solidification process at the bonding temperature which is higher than the liquation temperature of the grain boundary was controlled by diffusion of Ti to be result in liquation than B or Si. in insert metal.

LMS알고리즘은 강인성, 높은 추성, 구현의 단순성 때문에 많이 사용되고 있지만, 비균일적 수렴과 EMSE사이에 trade-off를 가진다. 이러한 단점을 극복하기 위해 가변 스텝 사이즈 알고리즘 방식이 사용되는데, 많은 계산량을 필요로 한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 IGC 알고리즘은 원 신호와 잡음신호의 순시이득값을 사용함으로서, 계산량을 줄이고, 주위 환경변화에도 안정적으로 적용할 수 있다. 실시간 처리를 위하여 IGC 알고리즘에서 log함수를 제거하여, 실제로 자동차 소음제거기에 적용하여 제안한 알고리즘의 성능을 확인하였다. 그리고 Labview FPGA 구현을 하여, 기존의 다른 알고리즘과 비교하여 효율적이라는 것을 입증하였다.

Few attempts have been made to discover the ecological function of coarse woody debris (CWD) despite its importance to small mammal population. Twenty-five pitfall traps and a hundred live traps were placed in three sites with high amounts of CWD and three sites with low amounts of CWD. Eleven species were caught, and Peromyscus maniculatus was the most abundant (45.6%, n=605). Among 11 speices, abundance of Tamias townsendii and Clethronomys gapperi were higher in sites with high amounts of CWD than in sites with low amounts of CWD. Home range size was larger in breeding season than in non-breeding season indicating mating search. Resident time of Peromyscus maniculatus was longer in sites with high amounts of CWD implying better stability in population. The increasing amount of coarse woody debris (CWD) enhanced the habitat use by small mammals, and animals in high amounts of CWD were more abundant and stable in population fluctuation. This study, therefore, concludes that CWD is a critical habitat element for small mammals in forest ecosystem.

Conventional full search block matching algorithm for motion estimation is computationally intensive and the resulting hardware cost is very high. In this paper, we present an efficient block matching algorithm using a 16:1 subsampling technique, and describe its hardware design. The algorithm reduces the number of pixels in calculating the mean absolute difference at each search location, instead of reducing the search locations.The algorithm is an extension of the block mating algorithm with 4:1 subsampling proposed by Liu and Zaccarin such that the amount of computation is reduced by a fact of 4(16 compared to the full search block matching algorithm) while producing similar performance.The algorithm can efficiently be designed into a hardware for real-time applications.

rate of growth of "protective" films of oxides and compounds derived from the lubricant. The protection afforded by the films is strongly dependent on lubricant and steel composition, initial composite surface roughness and the load/speed sequence or history in the early stages of sliding. The protective films, formed by chemical and mechanical action between lubricant and mating surfaces, delayed the surface roughening and offered higher load capacity. Given the great number of variables involved it is not possible to follow more than a few of the chemical changes on surfaces at the end of experiments. Ellipsometry was therefore used to monitor the formation and loss of dual protective films in real time, and also to find the effect of protective films on scuffing and break-in depending on lubricant conditions.

An artificial neural network model was developed to analyze and forecast Short-term river runoff from the Naju watershed, in Korea. Error back propagation neural networks (EBPN) of hourly rainfall and runoff data were found to have a high performance In forecasting runoff. The number of hidden nodes were optimized using total error and Bayesian information criterion. Model forecasts are very accurate (i.e., relative error is less than 3% and $R^2$is greater than 0.99) for calibration and verification data sets. Increasing the time horizon for application data sets, thus mating the model suitable for flood forecasting. decreases the accuracy of the model. The resulting optimal EBPN models for forecasting hourly runoff consists of ten rainfall and four runoff data(ANN0410 model) and ten rainfall and ten runoff data(ANN1010 model). Performances of the ANN0410 and ANN1010 models remain satisfactory up to 6 hours (i.e., $R^2$is greater than 0.92).

A gasket is known as an important component for mechanical sealing between mating surfaces. In case of the refrigerator, a gasket is generally installed into the edge line of a door to prevent cold air leaking out from the inside of a cabinet. The gasket shape used in a refrigerator is very complicated; it has a few deformable small rooms and wings (upper part) and inserting part (lower part) into the door. By the intricate shape, it takes much time and trouble on analysis by using a full-shape model. To settle down this problem, an effective design way of a gasket is proposed in this work. The inserting part is parametrically designed using FEM without considering the complicate upper part, Through this work, computational time and efforts are much reduced comparing to the full-shape analysis method. And the performance of a newly designed gasket was evaluated qualitatively.
