  • Water-soluble chitosan and water-insoluble chitosan with molecular weight of 2,000,000, 500,000, 80,000, and 40,000 with more than 90%of degree of deacetylation were produced to test antibacterial activity of chitosan against a pathogenic bacteria, Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA). the AATCC Test Method 100and Modified AATCC Test Method 100 were used to evaluate the antibacterial activity of chitosan. Antibacterial activity of chitosan/acetic acid solution was the same when they were tested by two different methods, but those of polyester fabrics treated with chitosan/acetic acid solution were different in different antibacterial test. So several problems were found in the experimental methods. The AATCC Test Method 100 seems that excessive nutrition exists in inoculum solution by quantitative analysis on the basis the result of antibacterial activity on chitosan/acetic acid solution and amount of chitosan attached to the surface of treated fabrics.

  • In this paper, we consider a modified inexact Newton method for solving a nonlinear system F(x) = 0 where $F(x):R^n{\rightarrow}R^n$. The basic idea is to accelerate convergence. A semi-local convergence theorem for the modified inexact Newton method is established and an affine invariant version is also given. Moreover, we test three numerical examples which show that the modified inexact scheme is more efficient than the classical inexact Newton strategy.

This method is to test the null hypothesis based on the result which comes from evaluating sample size "t", where $t{\geqq}3$, by using Triangle Preference Scale Test. It a confirmed that "New Modified Scheffe's Method 1" can be used for appraising "New Modified Triangle Test". In this report, the weight fraction of in-correct oddity chosen to correct oddity chosen is made 1/2 in terms of chance probability.

  • Water-insoluble chitosan with molecular weight of 2,000,000, 580,000, 80,000, and 40,000 and more than 90% of degree of deacetylation were prepared to test antibacterial activity of chitosan against a pathogenic bacteria, methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). As experimental method, the Shake Flask Method (SFM) and Modified Shake Flask Method (MSFM) were applicated. The anti-microbial activity of chitosan/acetic acid aqueous solution is consistent irrespective of Mw of chitosan. MIC value of SFM measurement was 0.2 ppm, and MIC value of modified SFM measurement was 25 ppm. But MIC value of chitosan/acetic add solution and chitosan treated cotton filter paper was equally 5 ppm. The antibacterial activities of chitosan were different in different test measurements employed. The antibacterial activities of chitosan/acetic acid solution and chitosan treated cotton filter paper were also different. Therefore, it needs to be pointed out that the test measurements of anti-microbial activity have some problems.

  • In order to investigate modified Hayden test for mastitis test milk Samples from 120 cows (total 470 of quarters) were tested by this method. The tests were performed by different lactation age group, different calving frequency and their total quarters. Comparision of results were made between the modified Hayden method and the California Mastitis Test. The results obtained were as follows: 1. Ratio of results of mastitis test between modified Hayden method and California Mastitis Test was 1.1:1.0. 2. Incidence rate of mastitis in different Lactation age group shown 78.5% in 7 to 9 year group, 50% in 4 to 6 year age group and 37.5% in up to 3 year age group, respectively. 3. Incidence rate of mastitis with calving frequency, were 13.5% in 1 to 2 calving frequency group, 83.3% in 3 to 4 calving frequency group and 63.6% in 5 to 6 calving frequency group respectively. 4. Mastitis ratio between rear quarters and front quaters were 1.7:1.0. 5. It is probable that modified Hayden was more sensitive than the California mastitis test in detecting subclinical and clinical mastitis.

  • In this paper, we propose a test case generation method adequate to destructive test of the BLDC(Brush Less Direct Current) motor controller used for the MDPS(Motor Driven Power Steering) system embedded in an automobile. The proposed method is a modified CTM(Classification Tree Method). CTM generates test cases assuming that all inputs are equally important. Therefore, it is very hard to generate test cases for extreme situations. To overcome the drawback and generate test cases specialized for destructive test. a modified CTM that compensates the limitation of traditional CTM is proposed. The proposed method has an advantage that it can intensively generate the test scenarios adequate to extreme situations by combining the test cases generated by the transitional CTM the while keeping the merit of the traditional CTM. The test scenarios for destructive test for the MDPS system embedded in a commercial automobile are generated utilizing the proposed method. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is verified through the test.

  • The purpose of this study was to assess repeatability and reliability of a new phoria test as compared to established phoria tests and to assess the possibility of mobile or online testing using the auto-flashed presentation. Near dissociated phoria was measured using the von Graefe method, the Howell card test, the modified Thorington test, and a new dichromatic card test (Red-Blue Phoria card test; RBP card test) on 109 subjects. The inter-examiner difference and test-retest difference were calculated. With the auto-flashed presentation of the RBP card test, near dissociated phoria was measured and the intraclass correlation coefficient and test-retest repeatability was assessed on 26 subjects. The variation in inter-examiner repeatability was the smallest for the modified Thorington test (+3.1/-2.6). The RBP card test was +3.0/-3.1, the Howell card test was +3.5/-2.7, and the von Graefe test was +6.2/-6.0. The variation in test-retest repeatability was the smallest for the RBP card test (+0.4/-1.4). The modified Thorington test was +1.3/-1.3, the Howell card test was +1.27/-1.45, and the von Graefe test was +1.59/-2.20. The ICC was 0.919 for the auto-flashed presentation of the RBP card test. The RBP card test is considered a highly repeatable method clinically and can be made a useful application for testing in mobile or online.

  • The object of this paper was to evaulate modified proposed design equation in model test result in order to estimate uplift-resistance of timber pile of reclaimed land greenhouse foundation. Uplift resistance result of model test was increased to according to increased of contact area. Uplift-resistance result of field test tend to lineary increased to according to increased of embedment depth and contact area. Results of field uplift-resistance was evaluate compare with modified proposed design equation results of model test and Effective stress method. As the Effective stress method tend to underestimate, modified proposed design equation results of model test tend to similar type. As the contact area increase, difference between field uplift-resistance results and modified proposed design equation results of model test was considered uplift-speed.

  • In this study the modified seismic coefficient method for seismic analysis of buried box structures is developed for practical purpose. The loading coefficient in the modified seismic coefficient method is determined from the results of the response displacement analysis. In the developed method adequate velocity response spectrum in accordance with soil condition is also needed to seismic design of buried box structures, In order to investigate applicability of the modified seismic coefficient method various analyses are performed with different parameters such as depth of base rock height and width of box buried depth and value of standard penetration test. Results from the modified seismic coefficient method are compared with those of the response displacement method in terms of the maximum bending moment and the location of it. From the comparison it is shown that the feasibility of the modified seismic coefficient method for seismic analysis of buried box structures.
