The last step in the photocycle of photoactive yellow protein (PYP) is a spontaneous recovery of the dark state from the active state in which the p-coumaric acid chromophore is thermally isomerized, concomitantly with the deprotona- tion of the chtomophore and the refolding of the protein moicty. For the purpose of understanding the mechanism of the thermal back-isomerization, we have investigated the rate-determining step by analyzing mutant PYPs of Met100, which was previously shown to play a major role in facilitating the reaction (1). The mutation to Lys, Leu, Ala, or Glu decelerated the dark state recovery by 1 to 3 three orders of magnitude. By evaluating temperature-dependence and pH-dependence of the kinetics of the dark state recovery, it was found that the retardation by mutations resulted from elevation of the activation enthalpy ( H$\^$┿/) and that the pKa of the chromophore, which was affected by the mutation, is in a linier correlation with the amplitude of the rate constants. It was, therefore, deduced from the correlation that the free energy for crossing the activated state in the dark recovery process is proportional to the free energy for the deprotonation of the chromophore, identifying the rate-determining step as the deprotonation of the chromophore.

In this paper, a new criterion f9r determining the sampling rate of digital conroller is proposed. This paper will introduce a method fur determining the appropriate sampling rate of digital controller which can be substituted with the given analog controller, using phase margin and gain cross over frequency, not rising time or bandwidth of the closed-loop system. This method also guarantees performance of the system. Without exact modeling functions of the plant, abstracting those functions, this paper can achieve stability and aimed performance of the system, and this paper proved it with proper modeling functions.

Kinetic measurements of the 5-nitrofurfural-hydrazine reaction in various pH ranges of aquous solution were carried out by ultraviolet spectrophotometry at $25^{\circ},\;35^{\circ}\;and\;45^{\circ}C$. The observed rate of the reaction varies with the change in pH, which gives characteristic "bell-type" rate acidity profile. The maximum rate is shown in the vicinity of pH 4. This reaction procceds with rate-determining attack of hydrazine on the 5-nitrofurfural at low pH and undergoes a change in rate-determining step to dehydration of the addition intermediate as pH increases. The reaction has a "reactant-like transition state" which precedes intermediate in low pH and "product-like transition state" which follows it in neutral pH. The geometry of 5-nitrofurfural-hydrazine intermediate was estimated with PCILO method associated with CNDO/2 scheme.

$Mn^{56}$ 방사성 물질을 이용하여 방사능 측정계수율에 따라 변화되는 한 가이가 검출기의 불감시간을 결정하는 방법을 탐구하였다. (equation omitted)는 이 검출기의 불감시간과 방사능 측정계수율과의 한 관계를 결정 할 수 있는 유용한 공식으로 생각되었다. 여기에서 (equation omitted)(N$_1$)는 방사능 측정계수율 N$_1$에 대한 불감시간이며 N$_1$은 첫 측정시각(이 시각을 0시로 잡는다)에서 방사능측정계수율이고 Nt는 첫 측정시각으로부터 t라는 시간후에 얻어진 계수율이며 λ는 방사능 붕괴상수이고 t는 두 측정시각의 시간차를 의미한다. 이 공식에 의하여 얻어진 불감시간에 따라 모든 방사능 측정자료를 교정하고 시간에 따른 그 계수율의 변화를 관찰한 결과 이미 보고된 $Mn^{56}$ 방사능 붕괴형식을 잘따르고 있음을 보여 주었다. 한편 이 공식을 이용한 결과를 보면 방사능 계수율 대 불감시간과의 관계로부터 얻은 불감시간은 방사능 측정계수율이 증가함에 따라 감소현상을 나타냈다.

The purpose of this study is to present a method for determining the k most vital arcs in the maximum flow problem using genetic algorithms. Generally, the problem which determine the k most vital arcs in maximum flow problem has known as NP-hard. Therefore, in this study we propose a method for determining all the k most vital arcs in maximum flow problem using genetic algorithms. First, we propose a genetic algorithm to find the k most vital arcs removed at the same time and then present the expression and determination method of individuals compatible with the characteristics of the problem, and specify the genetic parameter values of constitution, population size, crossover rate, mutation rate and etc. of the initial population which makes detecting efficiency better. Finally, using the proposed algorithms, we analyzed the performance of searching optimal solution through computer experiment. The proposed algorithms found all alternatives within shorter time than other heuristic methods. The method presented in this study can determine all the alternatives when there exists other alternative solutions.

니켈, 코발트 및 구리 전해채취의 반응율속단계 규명을 위해 회전원판전극(rotating disc electrode, RDE)를 사용하여 전해액 온도 및 교반속도에 대한 실험을 수행하였다. 유가금속 별 전해채취 공정에서의 활성화에너지를 구하여 반응율속단계를 규명한 결과 니켈은 혼합율속, 코발트는 화학반응율속, 구리는 물질전달율속으로 판단되었다. 니켈, 코발트 및 구리의 전해액 온도 및 교반속도 변화에 따른 전해채취 공정을 수행하여 전류효율을 비교한 결과 반응율속단계 결과와 일치하였다.

Resolving the integer ambiguity of GPS carrier phase measurements is the most important routine in precise positioning. In this paper, success rate is analyzed when using baseline information in the process of determining attitude. The result is verified through the simulation. Determining the initial position for the ambiguity resolution is estimated by using code measurement and baseline constraint. Success rate is estimated using covariance of the formed initial position. UKF has been used to overcome the nonlinear baseline condition during the process so that the higher success rate has been obtained compared with the general attitude determination.

Geophysical well logging techniques which are useful for delineating permeability of geological formation have been reviewed. A new technique for obtaining permeability using conductivity log technique has been discussed. This conductivity logging technique has been tested by monitoring the conductivity change within the model hole using borehole environment water and incoming-outgoing water of different salinity with constant flow rate by maintaining balance between inflow and outflow. Conductivity variation features depended mainly on flow rate, density contrasts due to salinity and temperature contrasts between fluid within the hole and incoming-outgoing fluid. The results of the experiment show uniform change of fluid conductivity within bore hole with time, and a fairly good correlation between the flow rate and the conductivity change rate. This conductivity logging technique is expected to be an efficient tool for determining permeability.

Pseudo-first-order rate constants ($k_{obs}$) have been measured spectrophotometrically for the reactions of 4-nitrophenyl benzoate with a series of pyridines in $H_2O$ containing 20 mol % DMSO. The plots of kobs vs pyridine concentration are linear up to ca. 0.1 M pyridines, indicating that the effect of self-association of pyridines with their conjugate acids are insignificant in this concentration range. The Bronsted-type plot has been obtained to be linear with a ${\beta}_{nuc}$ value 1.11, suggesting that the pyridinolyses proceed through a rate-determining breakdown of the zwiterionic addition intermediate. The pyridines studied have shown higher reactivity than isobasic primary and secondary amines toward the substrate. 1-Benzoyl-4-dimethylaminopyridinium ion, a possible intermediate, has not been detected since the rate of its hydrolysis in the reaction condition is comparable with or even faster than its formation.

Dissolution reactions of chemical grade zinc sulfide and natural sphalerite were studied in ferric chloride solution as an oxidant. To enhance the leaching reaction, ultrasonic technique was employed in this investigation. For the reaction with pure zinc sulfide, chemical reaction was the rate limiting step in the range of low conversion irrespective of applying ultrasonic wave. And the diffusion through liquid film instead of diffusion through product layer of free sulfur was the rate determining step because ultrasonic vibration removes the product from reaction zone. In the case of sphalerite with the ultrasonic vibrator, it was found that inert mineral layer diffusion was the rate determining step, in which the elemental sulfurs formed were removed by the ultrasonic action. Experimental results showed that the ultrasonic technique proved to be the methods which can significants improve the leaching performance.
