Channel allocation is one of the important issues in the multichannel transmission. In the cognitive radio networks, channel allocation scheme should be designed to improve spectrum efficiency without interfering with the transmission of licensed users. In this paper, we propose a spectrum hole prediction based channel allocation scheme. The proposed channel allocation scheme, predicts spectrum hole by using the channel success rate, and limit the transmission of secondary user's data, and it reduces the interference to the primary user. The performance of proposed channel allocation scheme is evaluated by the computer simulation.

opportunistic spectrum access (OSA) allows unlicensed users to share licensed spectrum in space and time with no or little interference to primary users, with bring new research challenges in MAC design. We propose a cognitive MAC protocol using statistical channel information and selecting appropriate idle channel for transmission. The protocol based on the CSMA/CA, exploits statistics of spectrum usage for decision making on channel access. Idle channel availability, spectrum hole sufficiency and available channel condition will be included in algorithm statistical information. The model include the control channel and data channel, the transmitter negotiates with receiver on transmission parameters through control channel, statistical decision results (successful rate of transmission) from exchanged transmission parameters of control channel should pass the threshold and decide the data transmission with spectrum hole on data channel. A dynamical sensing range as a important parameter introduced to maintain the our protocol performance. The proposed protocol's simulation will show that proposed protocol does improve the throughput performance via traditional opportunistic spectrum access MAC protocol.

To improve the design equation for the evaluation of the bursting force in the post-tensioned anchorage zone, this paper presents the analyses and design of the post-tensioned (PT) anchorage zone on the basis of three dimensional (3D) finite element (FE) analyses. The structural behavior was investigated through linear elastic finite element analyses upon consideration of the change in design parameters such as the bearing plate size, the eccentricity, and the tendon inclination. Moreover, consideration of the duct hole, which causes an increase of the bursting stress with a change in its distribution along the anchorage zone as well, is emphasized. Since that an exact prediction of the bursting force is the primary interest in design practice, additional parametric analyses are carried out to evaluate the relative contribution of all design parameters in determining the bursting force, and a comparison with the design guidelines mentioned in AASHTO-LRFD has been provided. Finally, an improved design guideline that takes into account the influence by the duct hole is suggested.

Authors report a rare case of acute intracranial subdural and intraventricular hemorrhage that were caused by intracranial hypotension resulted from cerebrospinal fluid leakage through an unidentified dural tear site during spinal surgery. The initial brain computed tomography image showed acute hemorrhages combined with preexisting asymptomatic chronic subdural hemorrhage. One burr hole was made over the right parietal skull to drain intracranial hemorrhages and subsequent drainage of cerebrospinal fluid induced by closure of the durotomy site. Among various methods to treat cerebrospinal fluid leakage through unidentified dural injury site, primary repair and spinal subarachnoid drainage are well known treatment options. The brain imaging study to diagnose intracranial hemorrhage should be taken before selecting the treatment method, especially for spinal subarachnoid drainage. Similar mechanism to its spinal counterpart, cranial cerebrospinal fluid drainage has not been mentioned in previous article and could be another treatment option to seal off an unidentified dural tear in particular case of drainage of intracranial hemorrhage is needed.

This work reports on three primary color fluorescent white organic light emitting diode (WOLED) with simple device structure where only a part of the hole transporting layer was doped with dye. The maximum luminance of the device reaches $35000\;cd/m^2$ at a drive voltage below 11V and external quantum efficiency of the device is above 1% in the wide range of luminance from 10 to $35000\;cd/m^2$ and reaches its highest 1.6% at $500\;cd/m^2$. The chromaticity coordinate shift of the device is negligible in this wide range of luminance. The blue shift of emission color with an increase of current density was attributed to the narrowing of recombination zone width with raise of current density.

Residual stresses causing stress corrosion cracking (SCC) of thin-walled steam generator U tubes were investigated. The residual stresses were measured by hole drilling methods, and the applied stresses resulting from the internal pressure and the temperature gradient in the steam generator were estimated theoretically. In U-bent regions, the residual stresses at extrados were induced with compressive stress(-), and its maximum value reached -319MPa in axial direction at $\phi$= $0^{\circ}$ in position. Maximum tensile residual stress of 170MPa was found to be at the flank side at position of $\phi$= $90^{\circ}$, i.e., at apex region. Hoop stress due to the pressure and temperature differences between primary and secondary side were analyzed to be 76 MPa and 45 MPa, respectively.

This research suggest one-body type scrapped styrofoam crusher with sprayed air (or water), which at present separately composed of dust eliminator, air supplier and crusher. Air (or water) that supplied from compressor injected to rotating twin roller through axis hole, and sprayed out of fine hole on the surface. The crusher that manufactured with sprayed air (or water) can make high-quality primary styrofoam removed pollution and dust. In case of mixed sprayed air and water, clean degree of crushed styrofoam was higher than single sprayed air. This could be contributed to reduce environmental pollution, cost and space in standpoint of recycling scrapped styrofoam.

Cognitive radio MAC protocol should allow secondary users to access unused or under-utilized spectrum without interference to primary users. For cognitive MAC protocol, one of the important issues is how to select the channel opportunities for secondary users. In this paper, we propose a novel cognitive MAC protocol to allocate channel opportunities for the secondary users based on the prediction of future availability. The proposed MAC protocol can reduce the interference to primary users and increase throughput using multiple channels.
