Let $T_l$ be a transformation on the interval [-1, 1] defined by Chebyshev polynomial of degree $l(l{\geq}2)$, i.e., $T_l(cos{\theta})=cos(l{\theta})$. In this paper, we consider $T_l$ as a measure preserving transformation on [-1, 1] with an invariant measure $\frac{1}{\sqrt[\pi]{1-x^2}}dx$. We show that If f(x) is a nonconstant step function with finite k-discontinuity points with k < l-1, then it satisfies the Central Limit Theorem. We also give an explicit method how to check whether it satisfies the Central Limit Theorem or not in the cases of general step functions with finite discontinuity points.

Akt (or Protein Kinase B; PKB) is a serine/threonine kinase and is activated by phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway. Recent evidence indicates that the abnormal activities or expression of Akt is closely associated with cancer, diabetes and neuro-degenerative diseases. These findings mean that Akt is likely to be a new therapeutic target for the treatment of disease. Here, we screened the effects of dithiolo-dithione derivatives such as SWU-20004, SWU-20009 and SWU-20025 on Akt activities. Among these compounds, only SWU-20009 (2-Thioxo-[1,3]dithiolo[4,5- $\beta$][1,4]dithiine-5,6-dicarboxylic acid dimethyl ester) inhibited the growth of KATOIII cell at micromolar range of concentration. Further investigation also revealed that SWU-20009 inhibited cellular Akt activity and induced apoptotic cell death.

Vascular endothelial cells release proteinases that degrade the extracellular matrix (ECM), thus enabling cell migration during angiogenesis and vasculogenesis. Sildenafil citrate stimulates the nitric oxide-cyclic guanosine monophosphate pathway through inhibition of phosphodiesterase type V (PDE5). In this report, we examined the mechanisms underlying sildenafil citrate-induced cell migration using cultured mouse aortic endothelial cells (MAECs). Sildenafil citrate induced migration and proteinase secretion by murine endothelial cells. Sildenafil citrate induced the secretion of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) and MMP-9, which is inhibited by $NF-{\kappa}B$ inhibitors. Sildenafil citrate also induced the secretion of plasmin, which is inhibited by PI 3'-kinase inhibitors. It is suggested that sildenafil citrate-induced migrating activity in endothelial cells may be accomplished by increased secretion of proteinases.

Stable power source and fast control response are important for the generator excitation system. To stabilize the control of excitation circuit the PI controller for excitation current has been used. But the response of the system with this conventional control technique is very poor, especially in transient response with a predictive current control, the response of the excitation system can be improved. In this study, it is verified by the PSIM simulation.

In this paper, a recurrent artificial neural network (RNN) based self-tuning speed controller is proposed for the high-performance drives of induction motors. The RNN provides a nonlinear modeling of a motor drive system and could provide the controller with information regarding the load variation system noise, and parameter variation of the induction motor through the on-line estimated weights of the corresponding RNN. Thus, the proposed self-tuning controller can change the gains of the controller according to system conditions. The gain is composed with the weights of the RNN. For the on-line estimation of the RNN weights, an extended Kalman filter (EKF) algorithm is used. A self-tuning controller is designed that is adequate for the speed control of the induction motor The availability of the proposed controller is verified through MATLAB simulations and is compared with the conventional PI controller.

In this paper, we describe a field measurement technique using multiple gradient echo method. For this purpose, 3 differential phase map is used between two images obtained in a single scan. The phase map is further processed to unfold phase folding (2n $\pi$). The inhomogeneity map is used to correct image distortion along readout gradient direction. Some experimental results obtained at 1.0 Tesla whole body MR system are shown with the proposed technique.

In this paper, we describe about control system for eletro-hydraulic LVAD(Left Ventricular Assist Device) and control algorithm for two operation mode. One is asynchronous operation mode and the other is synchronous operation mode synchronized with natural heart's R pulse. We also present implementation method of software PI algorithm for velocity control of motor used in LVAD system and its response.

이 논문에서는 직접수열 부호분할 다중접속 계통에 알맞은 다상 서명수열을 제안한다. 제안한 수열은 짝교차상관 값이 언제나 0이고, 수열 길이가 N일 때 최대 홀교차상관 값이 N/$\pi$ 쯤이다. 최대 홀교차상관 값이 크기는 하지만 이 값은 매우 드물게 일어나므로, 직접수열 부호분할 다중접속 계통의 성능에 거의 영향을 미치지 않음을 보인다. 제안한 수열을 서명수열로 쓴 직접수열 부호분할 다중접속 계통의 성능을 살펴보고 서로 다른 수열을 서명수열로 썼을 때의 성능과 견주어, 비동기 정규잡음 채널이 감쇄를 겪을 때나 겪지 않을 때 모두, 제안한 수열이 이제까지의 서명수열보다 훨씬 나은 성능을 낼 수 있음을 보인다.

NiCr thin films prepared on $SiO_2/Si$ substrates at room temperature by magnetron co-sputtering technique and then annealed in a vacuum ambient $(3{\times}10^{-6}\;Torr)\;at\;400^{\circ}C$. The grain size and crystallinity of the films increased with film thickness. The resistivity of the films slightly decreases as the film thickness increases, Temperature coefficient resistance (TCR) exhibits positive values irrespective of film thickness and TCR in the range of 50 to 400 nm thickness shows suitable values for the application of 10 dB in ${\pi}-type$ attenuators.

This paper designed a robust control of an induction motor using a disturbance cancellation observer of a feedforward control. The speed response of conventional PI controller characteristic is affected by variations of load torque disturbance. In the proposed system, the speed control characteristic using a feedforward control isn't affected by a load torque disturbance. High speed calculation and processing for vector control is carried out by ADMC300 digital signal processor. Validity of the proposed control method is verified through simulation and experimental result.
