Toxicity test for biodiesel (BD), biodiesel-derived neopentyl polyol ester (NPE) lubricant oil base, lubricant oil for diesel engine (LODE) and petroleum diesel (PD) was carried out using microalgae, Chlorella vulgaris. According to the method of OECD 201, the $EC_{50}$ values of BD and NPE were estimated as 84 and 69 mg/L, respectively, which indicates that these compounds are classified as slightly toxic compounds. The $EC_{50}$ values of LODE and PD were measured as 42 and 24 mg/mL, respectively, showing that these compounds are considered as moderately toxic compounds.

When a partial discharge takes place at the stator of a generator, the electrical pulse will propagate along the stator bars and the capacitor chains formed by the end part of the stator winds. On the first path, the pulse propagates as a travel wave at slow speed. On the second path, the pulse propagates at quick speed. Based on the data of the experiments on a real 50 MW steam generator, the author has found the pulses can propagate by magnetic field of the stator winding. It was studied that how to locating the partial discharge by signals coming from the different paths, including the features of signals on the two paths at time domain and frequency domain, the measurement frequency rang of the signals, the blind area, the advantage and disadvantage of this method.

The test method using simulator to objectively measure the steering feel from several drivers was proposed. It has also described the ideas to analyse the principal factors affecting the steering feel of the driver using the correlation analysis of the measured data and the questionnaire. Proportional Derivative(PD) controller has been used to measure the steering feel, and the control parameters have been selected to obtain the optimal steering feel. Membership frictions of Sugeno fuzzy model are constructed from the assist torque values calculated from PD controller at each steering state. Moreover to verify the performance, this fuzzy controller has been compared with the another fuzzy controller of which membership frictions are derived from the knowledge of drivers. As a result it can be concluded that the proposed fuzzy controller improves the steering feel at each steering state more than any other conventional methods.

To establish the synthetic method for dihydrochalcones as an important bioactive compounds, 2'-hydroxydihydrochalcone has been synthesized from the reduction of flavone in 20% yield. Flavone with five equivalents of ammonium formate in the presence of Pd/C in methanol under $N_2$ atmosphere produced the C-ring opened product. It was characterized by UV-VIS, ESI-MS and $^1H-NMR$ spectroscopy, and identified as 2'-hydroxydihydrochalcone.

This paper describes partial discharge phenomenon with SF6gas pressures in insulation consisting of insulation paper and SF6 gas. We made the specimens with SF6 gas gaps which exist between aramid papers and electrodes and calculated the electric field intensity in the these gaps. We measured the partial discharge inception voltages and the AC breakdown voltages with the test method of IEC 60060-2 and did the partial discharge degradation experiments with a constant voltage. According to gas pressures, the breakdown voltages in SF6gas gaps were calculated by Paschen's law. And these results showed the ability applying partial discharge inception voltages evaluation to Paschen's law and the relationship between the PD quantities occurring insulation breakdown and PD occurring area.

Many dialysis modalities such as peritoneal dialysis (PD), hemodialysis (HD) and continuous hemofiltration or hemodialysis (CRRT) are available for the management of pediatric patients with acute renal failure (ARF). PD is a relatively simple, inexpensive modality and can be used in hemodynamically unstable patients. But, it may not be the optimal therapy for patients with severe volume overload or life threatening hyperkalemia. HD is the preferred modality for the treatment of severe volume overload, severe hyperkalemia, but it needs vascular access. Improvements in the HD equipment have allowed HD to be performend in small children. Recents technological improvements in CRRT therapies have enabled pediatric patients who are less stable to be treated. CRRT is becoming the preferred method of acute therapy in pediatric intensive care units. A sound knowledge of the underlying principles of dialysis and awareness of recent technological advancements in differnet dialysis modalities will hopefully result in improved management of children with ARF.

We assessed the toxicity of cryoprotectant agents (CPAs) to gametophytic thalli of red alga Porphyra yezoensis at room temperature. The CPAs used were: dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), ethylene glycol (EG), glycerol (GC), 1,2-butanediol (1,2-BD), 1,3-butanediol (1,3-BD), 2,3-butanediol (2,3-BD), 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PD) and propylene glycol (PG). CPA concentrations of 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, and 50% were employed with 30 or 60 s immersion. The toxicity of the eight CPAs to gametophytic thalli of P. yezoensis was in the order: 1,3-BD < DMSO ${\approx}$ 2,3-BD ${\approx}$ PG ${\approx}$ EG < GC < 1,3-PD ${\approx}$ 1,2-BD. All thalli were more sensitive to high CPA concentrations, and most (>75%) thalli survived exposure to 10-25% CPA for 60 s. These data will facilitate selection of the optimal cryoprotectant concentration for cryopreservation of P. yezoensis thalli.

Three types of SnO2 based semiconductor gas sensors sensitive to propane, alcohol, carbon monoidxe and acetone have been fabricated. Adding about 0.3wt.% PdCl2 or SrCO3 to SnO2 improved the sentivity. The devices were tired for one hour in air in the temperarure range of $600^{\circ}C$ to 1, 00$0^{\circ}C$. An electrical warning system using the fabricated sensors is suggested.

This paper proposes a prefilter type velocity compensating control system using modified chaotic neural networks for the trajectory control of robotic manipulator. Since the structure of modified chaotic neural networks(MCNN) and neurons have highly nonlinear dynamic characteristics, MCNN can show the robust characteristics for controlling highly nonlinear dynamics like robotic manipulators. For its application, the trajectory controller of the three-axis robot manipulator is designed by MCNN. The MCNN controller acts as the compensator of the PD controller. Simulation results show that learning error decrease drastically via on-line learning and the performance is excellent. The MCNN controller showed much better control performance and shorter calculation time compared to the RNN controller, Another advantage of the proposed controller could by attached to conventional robot controller without hardware changes.
