A full-polarimetric scatterometer(HPS: Hongik Polarimetric Scatterometer) for X-band is designed, fabricated, and verified using the theoretically well-known point-targets in this paper. The X-band full-polarimetric scatterometer consists of an OMT(Orthogonal-Mode Transducer)+horn antenna, the angle control part for the OMT+horn antenna, a transmitter/receiver with a network analyzer and a frequency-conversion circuitry, and a movable support of these parts. We use an inclinometer sensor to control the vertical and horizontal incidence angles. The full polarimetric data can be obtained because of the polarization switches and the OMT. The accuracy of the scatterometer system is verified by measuring the polarimetric RCS(Radar Cross Section) of one of the theoretically well-known point-targets, i.e., a corner reflector.

An Agrobacterium tumefaciens LBA4404 (harboring antisense OMT gene)-mediated transformation method has been developed for poplar (P.nigra x maximowiczii) using prolonging co-cultivation time. Explants on LT (longterm) were induced transgenic calli one month earlier than those from ST (short-term) co-cultivation and remained healthier on LT than ST. With this approach, LT method reduced time to produce transgenic calli. Shoots were successfully regenerated from transgenic calli on SIM (Shoot Induction Medium) and rooted well on the basal medium spontaneously. The presence of antisense OMT gene was verified both by PCR and Southern analysis. Each transgenic poplar was phenotypically indishtinguishable when compared with controls for their growth pattern, leaf morphologies and xylem coloration.

Background: In the present study, we examined gender roles, job satisfaction, and the relationship between the two among orthopedic manual physical therapists (OMT). Methods: The subject of this study was 208 physical therapists working in the general hospital and rehabilitation in Daejeon. In order to examine the nature of the subject, we calculated the ratio of second finger length for fourth finger of predominant hand and completed the questionnaire to determine the general characteristics and job satisfaction. Results: The OMT and NOMT (non OMT) digit ratio results were not significantly different (p>.05). Digit ratio based on gender was also not significantly different between groups (p>.05). Among the job satisfaction survey items, OMT was significantly higher than NOMT in terms of Pride, Reflection of opinions, aptitude match, and field satisfaction (p<.05); however, there were no significant differences between groups for the remaining items. Digit ratio was not significantly related to any of the job satisfaction items (p>.05). Conclusions: We determined that gender roles had a limited influence on selecting and continuing with orthopedic physical therapy.

The present work was undertaken to investigate the anatomical and chemical characteristics of transgenic poplar down-regulated with antisense OMT gene. Also the distribution of lignin in transgenic poplar trees was investigated at cellular level. No visible abnormal phenotype was observed in the fibers and vessel elements of transgenic poplar. Any marked differences in the staining intensities of Wiesner and Mäule color reaction were not identified in the transgenic poplar. TEM micrographs did not show any staining intensities in the cell walls stained with KMnO₄. Interestingly, the UV spectroscopy of semi-thin sections exhibited a distinct decrease of lignin absorption at 280 nm in the vessel walls, indicating transgenic poplar wood with lower amount of guaiacyl lignin in vessel elements. Chemical composition of antisense OMT poplar was almost identical to that of wild-type poplar. Klason lignin content of transgenic poplar did not show any significant difference from that of the controls. The solid state NMR spectra revealed the transgenic poplar with only slightly more syringyl lignin than the control. The present work showed that antisense OMT gene constructed in the poplar was not enough to reduce the overall content of Klason lignin, and suggested that the expression of transformation was confined to vessel walls.

In this paper, a technique is presented f3r the design of a structurally simple narrow-band orthomode transducer (OMT) operating at 12/14 GHz frequency bands. The proposed OMT has such a structure that a horizontally polarized wave incident on the circular waveguide of the common port is directed to the rectangular waveguide of the straight port, while the vertically polarized wave is directed to the rectangular waveguide of the side port. Firstly methods are developed f3r designing individual parts of the OMT based on the waveguide theory and the theory of impedance matching. Secondly based on developed methods the whole OMT structure is designed using a commercial electromagnetic field analysis software. The validity of the proposed design technique is confirmed by fabricating and testing the designed OMT.

This study was performed to retrospectively pursue any correlation between renal cortex thickness (RCT), outer medulla thickness (OMT) on ultrasonography (US) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) with International Renal Interest Society (IRIS) stage. Medical records and US findings of the dogs diagnosed CKD were reviewed for comparing to those of the clinically healthy dogs from March. 2015 through June. 2016. To evaluate the correlation about normal and CKD patients, RCT and the OMT were measured on US images. RCT and OMT were adjusted by dividing body surface area for standardization (RCTS, OMTS). Also the ratio of RCT/OMT were calculated and these indices were evaluated to investigate any tendency between 5 groups (normal and 4 IRIS stages) using Jonckheere-Terpstra trend test (J-T test). The RCTS showed a declining tendency (p < 0.02) and the OMTS showed an inclining tendency from normal through each IRIS stage (p < 0.01). The RCT/OMT showed also declining tendency (p < 0.01). Although the gold standard for renal function including GFR is lack, it is thought that differentiation between normal and CKD patients could be possible on US measurement of renal cortex and outer medulla thickness, which could be an alternative index for kidney function in diagnostic imaging.

Recently, object-oriented concepts and technology are on the leading edge of programming language and database systems research, and their usefulness in those contexts has been successfully demonstrated. The adoption of object-oriented concept to the design of model bases has several benefits. From the perspectives of object-oriented approach, models in a model base are viewed as object which encapsulate their states and behaviors. This paper focuses on the design of an object-oriented model base that handles various resources of DSS(data, knowledge, models, solvers) in a unified fashion. For the design of a model base, we adopted Object Modeling Techniques(OMT). An object model of OMT can be used for the conceptual design of an overall model base schema. The object model of OMT provides several advantages over the conventional approaches in model base design. The main advantage are model reuse, hierarchical model construction, model sharing, meta-modeling, and unified model object management.

In this paper, the design and implementation of VODS is described. VODS is an object-oriented database de-sign support system. VODS supports the whole database design steps according to the EOMT(extended OMT). EOMT as an object- oriented database design methodology is deviced by extending the object model of OMT(Object Modeling Technique) for supporting information navigations to manipulate hyperemia objects. Database designers can do the whole design steps by clicking mouse buttons on the appropriate icons or commands from the initial screen mode.

This paper presents a narrow-band orthomode transducer(OMT) based on waveguide to waveguide transitions which can separate two linearly polarized orthogonal modes. This operates in the range 120Hz-13GHz frequency band. It consists of two parts, main arm and side arm. Stepped transformers are designed and an inductive post is inserted to improve the characteristics of the transmission loss and isolation. This paper also presents results from fabricated OMT These results show that the transmission loss is less than 1dB and the isolation between the ports for the OMT is above 20dB.
