An isolated building, composed of superstructure and isolation system which have very different damping properties, is typically non-classical damping system. This results in inapplicability of traditional response spectrum method for isolated buildings. A multidimensional response spectrum method based on complex mode superposition is herein introduced, which properly takes into account the non-classical damping feature in the structure and a new method is developed to estimate velocity spectra from the commonly used displacement or pseudo-acceleration spectra based on random vibration theory. The error of forced decoupling method, an approximated approach, is discussed in the viewpoint of energy transfer. From the base-isolated benchmark model, as a numerical example, application of the procedure is illustrated companying with comparison study of time-history method, forced decoupling method and the proposed method. The results show that the proposed method is valid, while forced decoupling approach can't reflect the characteristics of isolated buildings and may lead to insecurity of structures.

우리나라 연안해역의 해수나 어패류에서 V. cholerae non-O1의 분포를 밝힘과 동시에 1996년 4월부터 동년 11월까지 분리된 환경분리주와 1984년부터 1996년까지 서울 및 부산소재 각 대학병원에서 환자로부터 분리된 총 55균주를 대상으로 생화학적 특성과 혈청형을 분석하였다. V. cholerae non-O1은 한국의 연안에서 206거체중 21검체(10%)에서 분리되었으나 V. cholerae O1 및 O139는 검출되지 않았다. 지역별로는 군산에서 16%로 검출률이 제일 높았다. 환경이나 환자에서 분리된 V. cholerae non-O1 55 균주에 대한 혈청형 분석결과 15종류의 혈청형이 검출되었는데 환경분리주 12종류, 환자분리주에서는 6종류이였다. 그런데 환경분리주에서는 O14가 68.3%(28/41)이였고, 환자분리주에서는 O8이 약 36%(5/14)로 많았고 그다음으로 O2와 O10등의 순이었다. 그리고 O2, O10와 O39는 환경 및 환자분리주에서 동시에 검출되었다.

한국의 환경에서 분리된 47주와 환자 혈액에서 분리된 18주의 Vibrio cholerae serovar non-O1 및 non-O139를 대상으로 하여 콜레라 독소, 콜레라 독소 유전자, 용혈소, 그리고 혈구응집소 등이 병독인자 분포를 알아보았다. 시험된 65균주 중 용혈소만 생산하는 균은 29균주였고, 용혈소와 혈구 응집소를 생산하는 것은 65균주 중 36 균주였다. 용혈소, 콜레라 독소 및 유전자, 그리고 혈구응집소 모두를 가지고 있는 것은 환경에서 분리된 O37형 한 균주이었다. 한편 첨가한 당농도에 따른 혈구응집소 억제시험에서, 1% 이하의 mannose 와 galactose에서 응짐이 억제된 것은 환경분리균주 47 균주 중에서 26균주로 내혈구응집소나 외혈구응집소가 비슷한 비율로 분포하였고, 반면 환자분리균주는 18균주 중에서 5균주가 외혈구응집소의 비율이 훨씬 높았다. 따라서 V.cholerae non-1 및 non-O139의 용혈소가 주독소로 병독인자 분포는 다양하게 나타났다. 콜레라 독소가 유일한 병독이자라고 인식하기는 어려웠고 여러 가지 인자들이 복합적으로 작용될 것으로 생각되었다. 특히 환경분리주 O37 형에서 콜레라 독소 생성윤이 발견된 것을 향후 역학적인 측면에서 많은 연구가 되어야 할 것으로 사료되었다.

Many isolated word recognition systems may generate non-similar words for recognition candidates because they use only acoustic information. In this paper, we investigate several techniques which can exclude non-similar words from N-best candidate words by applying Levenstein distance measure. At first, word distance method based on phone and syllable distances are considered. These methods use just Levenstein distance on phones or double Levenstein distance algorithm on syllables of candidates. Next, word similarity approaches are presented that they use characters' position information of word candidates. Each character's position is labeled to inserted, deleted, and correct position after alignment between source and target string. The word similarities are obtained from characters' positional probabilities which mean the frequency ratio of the same characters' observations on the position. From experimental results, we can find that the proposed methods are effective for removing non-similar words without loss of system performance from the N-best recognition candidates of the systems.

Many isolated word recognition systems may generate non-similar words for recognition candidates because they use only acoustic information. The previous study [1,2] investigated several techniques which can exclude non-similar words from N-best candidate words by applying Levenstein distance measure. This paper discusses the various improving techniques of removing non-similar recognition results. The mentioned methods include comparison penalties or weights, phone accuracy based on confusion information, weights candidates by ranking order and partial comparisons. Through experimental results, it is found that some proposed method keeps more accurate recognition results than the previous method's results.

This study was carried out to estimate the warmed water irrigation and the warmed soil efficiency on protected cultivation of cucumber in winter season. The water of 28$^{\circ}C$ was continuously supplied for soil warming and that is $25^{\circ}C$ for warmed water irrigation. Cucumber growth was analyzed when tile soil kept up the optimum temperature in the root zone. The cucumber growth are compared with the warmed soil plots. isolated warmed soil plots and non-warmed soil plots. The cucumber growth in warmed soil plots and isolated warmed soil plots were 20~50% higher than non-warmed soil plots compare to that by the warmed irrigation. In the non-warmed soil plots, the stem diameter and the number of leaves in the warmed water irrigation plots are 10% higher than those in the normal water irrigation plots. The yields in isolated warmed soil plots were 37~38% higher than non-warmed soil plots and those in warmed soil plots were 85~96% higher than non-warmed soil plots. The fruit length, weight and diameter in warmed soil plots were 15% higher than those in the non-warmed plots.

In the design of the fuel cell charger, it is important to find out the suitable topology and to design the converter to guarantee the performance of the fuel cell as well as the battery. Most of the chargers developed so far have used step-down converters. However, since the small fuel cell stack can only generate a low voltage, it is required to use the step-up converter to charge the battery. In this paper, a modified non-isolated boost charger topology for the Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC) is proposed to meet the strict ripple requirements for the battery charge and its control method by using PI controller is detailed. The feasibility of the proposed topology and its control method is then verified by the experiments.

In order to improve the output efficiency of solar cells and to extend the life span of batteries, the input currents of converters are required to be continuous. If low output voltage ripple is required at the same time, it is obvious that the application of basic two-order converters (such as Buck and Boost derived converters) will not be good enough. In this paper, a lot of non-isolated push-pull converters (NIPPCs) with continuous current will be introduced due to their lower current stress, higher efficiency and better EMC performance. By decomposing the converters into push-pull cells, inductor and free-wheeling diodes, two families of NIPPCs based on single inductor and coupled inductor separately are systematically generated. Furthermore, characteristics analyses for some of the generated converters are also shown in this paper. Finally, two prototypes based on the corresponding typical topologies are built in the lab to verify the theoretical outcomes.

In this paper, an alternative non-isolated DC-DC converter with a high voltage boosting capability is proposed. Two inductors are used and one of them has its flux linkage increases during its charging period to achieve a high step-up voltage gain. Among the three integrated capacitors, one portrays the partial characteristic of the switched-capacitor technique, while the other two are connected in series across the load. With the two switches controlled using the same duty cycle, the proposed topology demonstrates the merits of a higher and wider range of step-up voltage gain when compared with recent topologies. In addition, a reduction in loss is induced and a higher efficiency is ensured with all the voltage stresses constrained within the output voltage. Operation of the proposed converter is analyzed and validated through experimental results obtained with a prototype.

A DC-DC Non-Isolated Three-Port Cuk-Cuk (NI-TPCC) converter for interfacing renewable energy sources (RESs) such as Fuel Cell (FC) and Photovoltaic (PV) energy with a DC load is presented in this paper. It features single-stage power conversion from both of the input ports to the load port. The proposed NI-TPCC converter is designed based on the classical Cuk converter. The operational modes and power flow are analyzed in the continuous conduction mode (CCM), and the relationships among the port voltages are derived. Continuous currents in all three ports with less ripple enhance the performance of a fuel cell and its operating life. Furthermore, the output inductor is shared with both of the input ports, which reduces the number of active and passive components. The effectiveness of the designed NI-TPCC converter has been validated through simulation and experimental results.
