The amount of telomeric DNA was quantified across different breeds(Landrace, Duroc, Yorkshire and Berksire), at different ages(90 days old and 180 days old) and among sexes(male and female) in pigs raised at the Performance Testing Station of Korea Swine Association, Jinkyo, Korea. The telomeric DNA amount was quantified by Quantitative Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization(Q-FISH) using a porcine telomeric DNA probe on interphase nuclei of lymphocytes. Analysis revealed that the amount of telomeric DNA on the pig lymphocytes was found to decrease with age. The quantity of telomeres significantly differed among breeds at 90 days of age. The colored breeds such as Berkshire and Duroc had higher amount of telomeric DNA than the Yorkshire and Landrace breed. In addition, the amount of telomeric DNA in male lymphocytes was significantly higher than that of females. In the correlation coefficients between the telomere quantity and their productive traits; average daily gain, loin percent and index value were positively correlated, whereas body length, feed efficiency and back fat thickness correlated negatively. However, the correlation coefficients were very low and not significant. Therefore, this study suggests that the amount of telomeres on lymphocytes can be considered as a physiological marker but not as a productive marker in pig.

In this paper, a hexagon-type piezoelectric transformer was investigated to increase the output power. The length of its side was 14mm and 17.5[mm], respectively. The piezoelectric ceramics was composed to PZT-PMN-PSN. This composition showed the characteristics which had an about 1200 of the mechanical Q-factor, 0.55 of the electromechanical coupling coefficient, 320 x 10$\^$-12/ C/N of the piezoelectric constant d$\sub$33/, 0.3% of the dissipation factor, etc. The voltage step-up ratio increased with increasing the load resistance, Rt., so it reached 80 with R$\sub$L/ of l[M$\Omega$] and was proportion to the length of side of the hexagon-type piezoelectric transformer.

공진 주파수 온도 계수($\tau$$_{f}$)가 큰 음의 값을 가지는 (Li$_{1}$2Nd$_{1}$2)TiO$_{3}$(LNT) 고주파 유전체를 125$0^{\circ}C$에서 140$0^{\circ}C$까지의 온도에서 2시간동안 소결을 하였고 소결후에는 소결온도보다 약간 낮은 120$0^{\circ}C$에서 5시간 동안 annealing을 실시를 하였다. 그리고 열처리에 의한 상, 미세구조의 변화를 X-ray, SEM을 통해서 분석하였으며, 열처리가 고주파 유전물성에 대해 미치는 영향에 대해서도 고찰하였다. 130$0^{\circ}C$에서 135$0^{\circ}C$ 근방에서 소결시킨 재료는 Annealing효과에 의해 소결체에 균일한 입도 분포가 증진되었고 체적 밀도가 향상되었으며, 열처리 효과에 의해 품질계수(Q)값이 향상되었고 유전상수($\varepsilon$$_{r}$)는 약간 감소하였으며 공진주파수 온도계수($\tau$$_{f}$)는 더 큰 음의 값을 가지게 되었다. 그러나 135$0^{\circ}C$이상에서 소결한 경우에는 비정상적인 입자 성장에 의해 밀도가 감소되며, 이에 따라 고주파 유전특성이 전반적으로 저하되었다.었다.

In this study, a 40 GHz band pass filter(BPF) employing a hair-pin structure has been designed, fabricated, and characterized for millimeter-wave wireless communication applications. Using the 3 dimensional(3-D) electromagnetic(EM) tool and design equations of the hairpin BPF, the BPF was desgned on the 5 mil-thick Duroid substrate(RT5880) with a relative dielectric constant (${\varepsilon}_r$) of 2.2. The tapping point (t) of the U-shape resonator in the input and output port has been determined using extracted an external Q-factor ($Q_e$). The coupling coefficients between the other resonators are calculated by adjusting the physical dimensions for the desired response of the BPF. The fabricated BPF was characterized using probing method on a probe station. Its measured center frequency(fc) and fractional BW are 41.6 GHz and 7.43 %, respectively. The measured return loss is below -10 dB at the pass band and the insertion loss is 3.87 dB. The fabricated BPF is as small as $9.1{\times}2.8mm^2$.

In this paper, we propose that three uniform coplanar waveguides(CPWs), such as a conventional, finite grounded(FG), and grounded(G) CPWs, can be coupled with a $TE_{01{\delta}}$ mode dielectric resonator(DR) for a parallel resonant characteristic as a microstrip line coupled with the DR. Coupling characteristics have been investigated by placing the DR on a dielectric support above the CPWs and by moving the DR away from the center of a slot of the CPWs to the ground plane. FEM simulation(HFSS) results in terms of S-parameters agree well with measurement results. Finally, unloaded Q values of the DR coupled with the three uniform CPWs are compared with those of the DR coupled with a microstrip line. The comparison shows that the DR coupled with the three CPWs has higher unloaded Qs than that coupled with a microstrip line and that the GCPW case has the highest unloaded Qs.

Microwave dielectric properties of $(Na_{1/2}{\;}La_{1/2})TiO_3$ (NLT) ceramics which is an A site complex perovskite structure are investigated. Dense sintered bodies are obtained when calcined at $1000^{\circ}C$ for 4h and then sintered in the temperature range between $1350^{\circ}{\;}and{\;}1450^{\circ}C$. NLT shows the bulk density of $4.95g/\textrm{cm}^3$, relative density of 96.4%, and a simple cubic structure with lattice constant(a) of 3.873$\AA$. Dielectric Constant(${\varepsilon}_r$) and quality factor Q increase as bulk density and average grain size increase respectively. NLT has the dielectric ${\varepsilon}_r=125$, Q=2842(fo=3 GHz), ${\tau}_f=465{\;}ppm/^{\circ}C$ when sintered at $1400^{\circ}C$ for 4h.

The basic processes responsible for the generation of oceanic fronts were reviewed. In particular the process of a shelf sea front produced by tidal stirring was identified from the one dimensional model of the water column in the coastal area, which incorporates the microscale process for the formation of a tidal front. Also a new criterion to predict its location was suggested. The time evolutions of the distributions of density and turbulent kinetic energy calculated from the model show that the criterion for the formation of a thermocline can be predicted as $R{\delta}^4$~ constant for large $\delta$ ($\delta$＞0.5), but the dependence on $\delta$ decreases as $\delta$ goes to O, where $R=H^4Q/{K_b}^3$,{\;}{\delta}=1-Do/H$, Q is the buoyancy flux at the surface, $K_b$ is the eddy diffusivity maintained at the bottom and Do is the depth of a thermocline in the absence of bottom mixing. The depth of a thermocline was found to decrease as the bottom mixing increases for a given value of Do. The results were interpreted in comparison with the previous studies.

In the classification of satellite images, the representative of training of classes is very important factor that affects the classification accuracy. Hence, in order to improve the classification accuracy, it is required to optimize pre-classification stage which determines classification parameters rather than to develop classifiers alone. In this study, the normality of training are calculated at the preclassification stage using SPOT XS and LANDSAT TM. A correlation coefficient of multivariate Q-Q plot with 5% significance level and a variance of initial training are considered as an object function of genetic algorithm in the training normalization process. As a result of normalization of training using the genetic algorithm, it was proved that, for the study area, the mean and variance of each class shifted to the population, and the result showed the possibility of prediction of the distribution of each class.
