For the quality control of traditional herbal medicine, Cinnamomi Ramulus, simultaneous determination of cinnamic acid, cinnamaldehyde, and 2-methoxycinnamaldehyde was established by using a high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method with diode array detector. To separate three constituents, Eclipse XDB C18 ($5{\mu}m$, $4.6{\times}250mm$) was used with 0.1% acetic acid and acetonitrile. Validation of the chromatography method was evaluated by linearity, recovery, and precision test. Calibration curve of standard components showed excellent linearity ($R^2$ >0.9999). A simple and efficient method by HPLC was developed to evaluate the quality of traditional herbal medicines made from Cinnami Ramulus. Three major bioactive ingredients in 30 samples that are from China(8) and Vietnam(22) were separated and quantified.

This paper presents a simple and fast approach to plan the arrangement of supports and to do a ship docking analysis. The unpredicted structural damages often happen from a docking works as the size of ships are getting larger and larger. In docking a ship, excessive reaction forces from supports are primary causes of the structural damage. The grillage analysis method is employed to simply calculate only the reaction forces at supports. The grillage modeling strategies are proposed to improve the accuracy. In this paper, the results obtained by the proposed approach are compared with those of the current whole-ship FEA for typical types of ships. Comparison shows that the results from the present grillage approaches are reasonably in a good agreement with the 3-D full F.E one. Finally, an integrated program developed for the ship docking analysis is described.

Facial asymmetry can be classified into the rolling-dominant type (R-type), translation-dominant type (T-type), yawing-dominant type (Y-type), and atypical type (A-type) based on the distorted skeletal components that cause canting, translation, and yawing of the maxilla and/or mandible. Each facial asymmetry type represents dentoalveolar compensations in three dimensions that correspond to the main skeletal discrepancies. To obtain sufficient surgical correction, it is necessary to analyze the main skeletal discrepancies contributing to the facial asymmetry and then the skeletal-dental relationships in the maxilla and mandible separately. Particularly in cases of facial asymmetry accompanied by mandibular yawing, it is not simple to establish pre-surgical goals of tooth movement since chin deviation and posterior gonial prominence can be either aggravated or compromised according to the direction of mandibular yawing. Thus, strategic dentoalveolar decompensations targeting the real basal skeletal discrepancies should be performed during presurgical orthodontic treatment to allow for sufficient skeletal correction with stability. In this report, we document targeted decompensation of two asymmetry patients focusing on more complicated yaw-dependent types than others: Y-type and A-type. This may suggest a clinical guideline on the targeted decompensation in patient with different types of facial asymmetries.

Internet access from mobile phones over cellular networks suffer from severe bandwidth limitations and high bit error rates over wireless access links. Tailoring TCP connections to best fit the characteristics of this bottleneck link is thus very important for overall performance improvement. In this work, we propose a simple algorithm in deciding the optimal TCP segment size to maximize the utilization of the bottleneck wireless TCP connection for mobile contents server access, taking the dynamic TCP window variation into account. The proposed algorithm can be used when the product of the access rate and the propagation time is not large. With some numerical examples, it is shown that the optimal TCP segment size becomes a constant value when the TCP window size exceeds a threshold. One can set the maximum segment size of a wireless TCP connection to this optimal segment size for mobile contents server access for maximum efficiency on the expensive wireless link.

Polyaniline/$SiO_2$ catalyzed one-pot mannich reaction of acetophenone, aromatic aldehydes and aromatic amines are carried out in ethanol to afford various ${\beta}$-amino ketones. The various wt% of polyaniline were supported on pure silica synthesized by using chemical oxidative method. The catalyst prepared has been characterized by means of thermal analysis (TG-DTA), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). Solvent stability of catalyst was tested using UV-Visible spectroscopy. This protocol has several advantages such as high yield, simple work up procedure, non-toxic, clean, easy recovery and reusability of the catalyst.

A simple HPLC method using UV detection was developed and validated for the determination of levodropropizine (LDP) In dog plasma. The sample was prepared for injection using a liquid-liquid extraction method with 1-phenypiperazine as the internal standard. The mobile phase was methanol - diethylamine solution (0.05 M) (20:80, v/v, pH adjusted to 3.0 with $H_3PO_4$) with a detection wavelength of 240 nm. The limit of quantitation (LOQ) of LDP in a biological matrix was determined to be 25.25 ng/mL. The calibration curve was linear across the concentration range of 25.25 to 2020 ng/mL. The intra-day and inter-day precision values (CV%) were within 7% and accuracy (R.E. %) was within 6% of the nominal values for medium (252.5 ng/mL) and high (2020 ng/mL) LDP concentrations. For the LDP concentration at the LOQ, the intra-day and inter-day precision and accuracy were within 20% and 10%, respectively. The average absolute recovery for LDP was 70.28%. This method was successfully used to analyze plasma samples in a steady-state bioavailability study of a newly developed sustained-release LDP tablets (SR) using immediate-release tablets (IR) as the reference. The relative bioavailability of the SR was determined to be $106.3\;{\pm}\;12.8%$ (n=6). The $C_{max}$ of the SR was significantly lower (p<0.05), and the $t_{max}$ was significantly longer than that of the IR (p<0.05). The results of ANOVA and two one-sided tests indicated that the SR exhibited acceptable sustained release properties and was bioequivalent to the IR.

The anorthositic rocks and the many other plutons which are of different varieties and age were distributed in the northern extremity of the distributed areas of H-S anorthositic rocks. The purpose of this study was to find plutons which had comagmatic relationships, and to make clear the magmatic process of anorthositic magma. The plutons were classified, and the petrological and the geochemical characteristics of the plutons were compared and researched in this study. And, because, like anorthosite, the rocks which intrude in the deep crust accompany assimilation, an AFC model calculation was performed to make the differentiation process of the anorthositic rocks clear. The plutons in this area were classified into three groups, and the three groups were composed of the Precambrian anorthositic rocks and related rocks, the Jurassic gabbro, and the plutons of undnown age. The anorthositic magma was differentiated from the anorthositic rocks through the tonalite to the alkali-feldspar granite, and it was differentiated under K, Mg, Fe free/lack condition. It was found from the result of AFC model that the anorthositic rocks were differentiated by fractional crystallization, but they were assimilated with wall-rocks, and the assimilation was performed at the rate of r$\leq$0.1. The plutons which intruded the anorthositic rocks subsequently consisted of the gabbro, the megacrystic granite, the fine-grained granite, and the gneissose granite. But they were formed by the repeated intrusion of magma, which may, or may not, be of the same origin. According to the result of the RCF model, these plutons were differentiated by simple fractional crystallization, and they were assimilated relatively less than the anorthositic rocks.

In this paper, we present hardware implemcntation of self-organizing feature map (SOFM) neural networkwith constant adaptation gain and binary reinforcement function on FPGA. Whereas a tnme-varyingadaptation gain is used in the conventional SOFM, the proposed SOFM has a time-invariant adaptationgain and adds a binary reinforcement function in order to compensate for the lowered abilityof SOFM due to the constant adaptation gain. Since the proposed algorithm has no multiplication operation.it is much easier to implement than the original SOFM. Since a unit neuron is composed of 1adde $r_tracter and 2 adders, its structure is simple, and thus the number of neurons fabricated onFPGA is expected to he large. In addition, a few control signal: ;:rp sufficient for controlling !he neurons.Experimental results show that each componeni ot thi inipiemented neural network operates correctlyand the whole system also works well.stem also works well.

We have developed a sensitive, one-step, homogeneous open sandwich fluoroimmunoassay (OsFIA) based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) and luminescent semiconductor quantum dots (QDs). In this FRET assay, estrogen receptor-$\beta$ (ER-$\beta$) antigen was incubated with QD-labeled anti-ER-$\beta$ monoclonal antibody and AF (Alexa Fluoro)-labeled anti-ER polyclonal antibody for 30 minutes, followed by FRET measurement. The dye separation distance was estimated to be between $80\sim90\;{\AA}$. The present method is rapid, simple and highly sensitive, and did not require the bound/free reagent separation steps and solid-phase carriers. A concentration as low as 0.05 nM (2.65 ng/ml) receptor was detected with linearity ($R^2$ > 0.990). In addition, the assay was performed with commercial antibodies. This assay provides a convenient alternative to conventional, laborious sandwich immunoassays.

The data used to develop distance-independent individual models for natural mixed forests were collected from 712 remeasured permanent sample plots (25,526 trees) of 10-year periodic from 1990 to 2000 in Baihe Forest Bureau of Changbai Mountains, northeast China. Based on analyzing relationship between diameter increment of individual trees with tree size, competitive status, and site condition, the diameter growth models for individual trees of 15 species growing in mixed-species uneven-aged forest stands, that have simple form, good predicting precision, and easily applicable, were developed using stepwise regression method. The main variables influencing on diameter increment of individual trees were tree size and competition, however, the site conditions were not significantly related with diameter increment. The tree size variables (lnDBH and $DBH^2$) were the most significant and important predictors of diameter growth existing in all 15 growth models. The diameter increment was directly proportional to tree diameter for each species. For the competitive factors in growth model, the relative diameter (RD), canopy closure (P), and the ratio of diameter of subject tree with maximum diameter (DDM) were contributed to the diameter increment at a certain extent. Other measures of stand density, such as basal area of stand (G) and stand density index (SDI), were not significantly influenced on diameter increment. Site factors, such as site index, slope and aspect were not important to diameter increment and excluded in the final models. The total variance explained by the final models of squared diameter increment ($R^2$) for all 15 species ranged from 35% to 72% and these results compared quit closely with those of Wykoff (1990) for mixed conifer stands. Using independent data set, validation measures were evaluated for predicting models of diameter increment developed in this study. The result indicated that the estimated precision was all greater than 94% and the models were suitable to describe diameter increment.
