Extensive disease surveys performed during the summers of 2013 and 2014 in Schisandra chinensis orchards resulted in the finding of a Septobasidium sp. associated with felt disease. The fungus was characterized to be symbiotic with a scale insect (Pseudaulacaspis cockerelli). Morphological and molecular characteristics of the Septobasidium isolates were investigated. The isolates were morphologically and phylogenetically close to S. bogoriense. We tentatively describe this isolate as a Septobasidium sp., mainly because of the limited amount of information available on the internal transcribed spacer region of the ribosomal DNA of Septobasidium spp.

This paper describes an extension of a numerical model, which was developed to simulate the nonlinear behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) structures subject to monotonic in-plane shear. While maintaining all the basic assumptions adopted in defining the constitutive relations of concrete under monotonic loadings, a hysteretic stress-strain relation of concrete, which crosses the tension-compression region, is defined. In addition, curved unloading and reloading branches inferred from the stress-strain relation of steel considering the Bauschinger effect are used. Modifications of the stress-strain relation of concrete and steel are also introduced to reflect a pinching effect depending on the shear span ratio and to represent an average stress distribution in a cracked RC element, respectively.

A magnetic-field tunable 2.4 GHz microwave bandpass filter having insertion loss < -5dB on an FR4 substrate with the flaky magnetic material was designed and characterized. The tunability in the designed bandpass filter was achieved by adhering soft magnetic materials on top of the device. This soft magnetic material can be composed of ferromagnetic substance or ferrimagnetic substance. The performance of the designed bandpass filter under its influence is investigated. The frequency offset ratio changes over 30 %. There is over 20 % change in the center frequency towards the lower frequency region due to this application. These magnetic material layers achieved the center frequency shift and bandwidth extension without actually changing the original structure of the device.

This study focuses on monitoring the surface UHI in a tropical city of Bangkok in both spatial and temporal dimensions based on MODIS- and TM -derived land surface temperature (LST). The spatial extension and magnitude of the surface UHI are explored for days and nights as well as its variations through the dry (least-clouded) season. Surface UHI growth between 1993 and 2002 is mapped using highresolution LANDSAT TM thermal bands. UHI patterns are, then, analyzed in association with land/vegetation covers derived from high-resolution ETM+ and ASTER satellites and ancillary data.

Most chordomas show extradural extension and bone destruction. A 32-year-old man presented with neck pain and progressive paraparesis. He had been diagnosed a clival chordoma and underwent an operation seven years ago. Radiological studies revealed that the tumor was recurred in a retroclival area and invaded into intradural region. We removed the tumor by two staged operations. After surgery, satisfactory results were achieved.

Spinal pain is a common patient complaint in clinical practice. Conservative treatment methods include oral medication, physical therapy, injections, and spinal orthoses. The clinical application of orthoses is debated because of potential complications associated with long-term use, such as muscle weakness and joint contracture. We reviewed the orthoses most frequently used to manage spinal pain. We review the use of soft cervical and Philadelphia collars, lumbosacral corsets, and thoracolumbosacral orthosis to manage spinal pain. Spinal orthoses can help reduce pain by protecting the muscles and joints of the injured spinal region, preventing or correcting malformations, and limiting trunk flexion, extension, lateral flexion, and rotation. The short-term use of spinal orthoses is known to improve pain and disability during the treatment period without significant adverse effects. Spinal orthoses are expected to alleviate pain and improve patients' lifestyle.

To clarify effects of the structural changes of Fur protein on the resistance to metronidazole (Mtz), the mutational analysis of structure and function of the protein in Helicobacter pylori (Hp) was undertaken. It was identified that some changes in Hp Fur protein resulted in increase of resistance to Mtz, and other changes resulted in decrease of resistance. Increase of Mtz resistance came from the enzyme's decreased ability of reducing prodrug Mtz to the form of bactericidal agent. Some sites that affects Mtz resistance (i) in Fur's N terminal extension, and (ii) in its central region, which links DNA binding and Fe-binding modules were identified. It was also found that the addition of FLAG tag to Fur's C terminus also significantly impairs Fur function.

본 논문에서는 동작 영역 감지 회로를 이용한 LLC 컨버터의 홀드-업 시간 연장 기법을 제안한다. LLC 컨버터는 주로 소프트 스위칭이 가능한 인덕티브 영역에서 동작하며, 커패시티브 영역에서의 동작을 방지하기 위해서 최대 전압 이득을 가지는 스위칭 주파수보다 충분히 높은 주파수까지만 동작시킨다. 그 결과, LLC 컨버터가 가지는 최대 전압 이득을 활용하지 못하기 때문에, 입력 전압 범위가 좁아져 홀드-업 시간이 줄어들게 된다. 본 논문에서는 LLC 컨버터의 동작 영역을 감지하여, 최대 전압 이득을 가지는 스위칭 주파수까지 동작시킴으로서 홀드-업 시간을 최대로 가지게 한다. 제안된 기법을 통해 홀드-업 시간이 증가하고, 링크 커패시터의 부피를 감소시킬 수 있다.

In this study, we proposed the wire parallel mechanism that can be used to measure a full pose of a robot. It is composed of six parallel links using wire. The position and orientation of the end effectorf of a robot are calculated using the length of wires which is measured by the encoder. The complex non- linear equations of the forward kinematics are solved by using a numerical method, and the unique solution is obtained from the geometric configuration of the device. The length error of the wire which occurs in static condition is compensated by the relational equation that considered longitudinal extension and defoection of the wire. Through this work, we known that the proposed device has a good accuracy( .+-. 0.01mm) in a large measuring region, so it can be used effectively in a callibration of a robot which required a low cost.

Demand is increasing for new functional and health food such as natually colored or flavored rices. Shinongheugchal, Shinmyeongheugchal, colored glutinous rice, were breed as new variety in Jeollabuk-do ARES. Shinongheugchal and Shinmyeongheugchal are medium to late maturing cultivars and higher than Heugnambyeo in term of C3G content. It was conducted to improve the quality of Shinongheugchal, Shinmyeongheugchal in different cultivation regions, transplanting time. The cultivation regions was Jinan (mid-mountainous area) and Iksan (plain area). Transplanting time was May. 20, May. 25 May 30 and Jun. 5 in Jinan, that of Iksan was Jun. 5, Jun. 10, Jun. 15 and Jun. 20. The average heading date of Shinongheugchal and Shinmyeongheugchal was Aug. 13, Aug. 19 and Aug. 15, Aug. 22 in Jinan and Iksan. The average yield of Shinongheugchal(brown rice) in Jinan was 514 $kg\;10a^{-1}$ and that of in Iksan was 529 $kg\;10a^{-1}$. The average yield of Shinmyeongheugchal(brown rice) in Jinan was 508 $kg\;10a^{-1}$ and that of in Iksan was 511 $kg\;10a^{-1}$. The average C3G content of Shinongheugchal in Jinan was 273.9 mg/100g, that of in Iksan was 228.2 mg/100g. The average C3G content of Shinmyeongheugchal in Jinan was 126.3 mg/100g, that of in Iksan was 101 mg/100g. The optimal transplanting date was May 30 in Jinan and June 10 in Iksan considering the yield and C3G content in Shinongheugchal. The optimal harvesting date of Shinongheugchal in Iksan was 50 days after heading.
