In this paper, uncertainties and failure criteria of structure are mathematically expressed by random variables and a limit state equation. A limit state equation is approximated by Fleishman's 3rd order polynomials and the theoretical moments of an approximated limit state equation are calculated. Fleishman introduced a 3rd order polynomial in terms of only standard normal distiribution random variables. But, in this paper, Fleishman's polynomial is extended to various random variables including beta, gamma, uniform distributions. Cumulants and a normalized limit state equation are used to calculate a theoretical moments of a limit state equation. A cumulative distribution function of a normalized limit state equation is approximated by a Pearson system.

It is expected that synaptic construction and electrical characteristics In degenerate retina might be different from those In normal retina. Therefore, we analyzed the retinal waveform recorded with multielectrode array in normal and degenerate retina using principal component analysis (PCA) and Independent component analysis (ICA) and compared the results. PCA Is a well established method for retinal waveform while ICA has not tried for retinal waveform analysis. We programmed ICA toolbox for spatiotemporal analysis of retinal waveform. In normal mouse, the MEA spatial map shows a single hot spot perfectly matched with PCA-derived ON or OFF ganglion cell response. However In rd/rd mouse, the MEA spatial map shows numerous hot and cold spots whose underlying interactions and mechanisms need further Investigation for better understanding.

Van de Vusse reactor is known as a highly nonlinear chemical process and has been considered by a number of researchers as a benchmark problem for nonlinear chemical process. Various identification methods for nonlinear system are also verified by applying these methods to Van de Vusse reactor. From the point of view of identification, only the Volterra kernel of second order has been obtained until now. In this paper, the authors show that Volterra kernels of nonlinear Van de Vusse reactor of up to 3rd order are obtained by use of M-sequence correlation method. A pseudo-random M-sequence is applied to Van de Vusse reactor as an input and its output is measured. Taking the cross correlation function between the input and the output, we obtain up to 3rd order Volterra kernels, which is ...

After a vital pulpotomy in dogs' teeth, the responses of the remaining pulp tissue under hydroxides (calcium hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide, aluminium hydroxide and zinc hydroxide) were studied histologically. The class V cavities were prepared on the teeth and the pulp was amputated. Each hydroxide was placed over the amputated tissue and the cavity was sealed with zinc oxide eugenol cement. Animals were sacrificed after 3 days, 1, 2, and 3 weeks following the operation. The teeth were decalcified, sectioned and stained with hematoxylin and eosin. Microscopic examination reveals as follows; 1. Calcium hydroxide: Inflammatory change was seen in the superficial portion of the remaining pulp tissue at the 3rd day and 1st week. The incompleted calicified material began to be deposited from the canal wall at the 2nd week, and the advanced calcified material was seen at the 3rd week. 2. Magnesium hydroxide: Severe inflammatory change was seen in the superficial portion of the remaining pulp from the 3rd day and the 1st week samples. Inflammatory change was decreased at the 2nd week and the slight calcified material was deposited from the root canal at the 3rd week. 3. Aluminium hydroxide: Severe inflammatory changes were seen in the remaining pulp tissue, the blood vessel was dilated, and the odontoblasts were destroyed at the 3rd day and 1st week. The fibrous degeneration spread to the apex at the 2nd week. There was no evidence of newly formed odontoblasts or deposition of calcified material underneath aluminium hydroxide. 4. Zinc hydroxide: The micrscopic picture was destructive. A thick necrotic layer was found under the amputated surface at the 3rd day and 1st week. Granulation tissue formation as well as chronic inflammatory changes extended to the apical area in the pulp tissue. Also there were no sign of odontoblastic formation or calcified material at the 2nd and 3rd week.

This study investigated the relations between children's self-perceived competence and friendship quality by grade, sex and father/mother attachment, and the relative importance of father/mother attachment and self-perceived competence on quality of children's friendships. There was a mean difference in self-perceived competence by grade and father/mother attachment. While both 3rd graders and 5th graders showed high levels of father/mother attachment and self-perceived competence, 5th graders showed higher self-perceived competence than 3rd graders. There was a mean difference in friendship quality by grade, sex and father/mother attachment : 5th graders showed higher friendship quality than the 3rd graders, and girls showed higher friendship quality then boys. In conclusion, children's friendship quality was influenced by father/mother attachment and social acceptance.

Seven rice germplasms with red pigmentation within the pericarp were isolated from a large mutant collection. These red pericarp phenotypes resulted from the functions of the Rc, Rd and RdRc genes. Among them, two brown pericarp of the Rc type, four red pericarp of the RdRc type, and one white pericarp of the Rd type were identified. Morphological and agronomic characteristics of those rice germplasms were studied. The Rc type germplasms have the faint red or brown color pericarp and the Rd types produce the white pericarp, whereas the RdRc type germplasms have the dark red pericarp. Most of the important agronomic characteristics including plant stature, tillering ability, spikelet fertility, and total grain yield were lower in the colored rice than those of the wild-type control. All of the studied colored rice germplasms had a tendency of easy seed-shattering in comparison to the control. These characteristics of newly identified germplasms will be useful for identifying the genes responsible for pericarp color phenotype determination.

To study the recovery pattern of pulmonary function after decortication, the author performed serial pulmonary function tests using spirometry before and at lst., 3rd., 4th. week, lst., 3rd., 6th. month and 1st. year in 36 patients who underwent decortication from January 1989 to September 1991 at the Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Pusan National University Hospital, Pusan, Korea. Patients were divided into 3 groups by the degree of compression of lung parenchyme. Group I was classified below 20%, Group II between 21 to 40%, Group III above 41%. Their serial changes of pulmonary function test were compared. The obtained results were as follows; 1. Maximal voluntary ventilation was recovered in 1st post perative week and even greater improvement was noted in group III in which ratio to 44 % of the preoperative value. 2. Vital capacity reached nearly to preoperative values in 3rd postoperative week and had increased much further to 26 % above the preoperative figure in group II. 3. Forced expiratory volume in 1 second returned rather slowly in 3rd-4th postoperative week and the mean VC was improved more higher in group II than the other groups following decorti cation. 4. There was an greatest improvement over all tests[MW, VC, FEV1] in 2nd decade which ratios to preoperative value were 34, 25 and 22 % respectively.
