  • Staphylococcus aureus is a major pathogen for cattle, causing various forms of subclinical and clinical mastitis and could be a causative agent of food poisoning, it produces various superantigenic exotoxins which have a great public health significance. A total of 72 S. aureus clinical isolates from dairy farms located in Kyunggi Province Korea were examined for the species identification by biochemical method, and for the detection of $\beta$-lactamase, enterotoxin and other exotoxins genes by PCR. The results of species identification by biochemical method agreed with those of PCR done with species specific primer STA-AU. $\beta$-lactamase is an enzyme closely associated with the resistance to antibiotic penicillin, which is an important means of treatment of mastitis, all the isolates were positive for the presence of genes encoding $\beta$-lactamase, which were reproduced in penicillin susceptibility disc assay. Six types of toxin genes, Staphylococcal enterotoxin (SE)A, SEB, SEC, SEE, toxic shock syndrome toxin (TSST-1) and exfoliative toxin A (ET A) were detected in 72 isolates by PCR associated genotypic method in this study, none of the isolates carried the genes for enterotoxin D (SED) and exfoliative toxin B (ETB). The occurrence rate of exotoxin genes rated as 12.5%, and the precision of the PCR identification results has been confirmed using the reference strains.

  • Proximity magnetic sensor is able to detect the object target accurately in close range and it has been widely used in the underwater guided weapon system because there is no countermeasures from the target. In order to increase the damage of target by shock wave due to explosion of the underwater guided weapon system, the maximum detection range of the proximity magnetic sensor needs to be increased. In this paper, we describe the techniques of the optimum transmitting and receiving coils design using the Finite Element Method for the output power enhancement of the transmitter and the sensitivity improvement of the receiver. Finally, the proposed design techniques of the transmitter and the receiver were verified using a experimental setup and a prototype.

  • Dangguisu-san is a well-known traditional Korean herbal medicine prescription and has been widely used to treat ecchymosis, blood stagnation, and pain resulting from physical shock in Korea. In this study, an ultra-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-mass spectrometer method was established for the simultaneous determination of the 17 biomarker components in Dangguisu-san. All analytes were separated on an UPLC BEH $C_{18}$ ($100{\times}2.1$ mm, $1.7{\mu}m$) column and maintained at $45^{\circ}C$. The mobile phase consisted of two solvent systems, 0.1% (v/v) formic acid in water (A) and acetonitrile (B) by gradient flow. The injection volume was $2.0{\mu}l$ and the flow rate was 0.3 ml/min with detection at mass spectrometer. Calibration curves of the 17 biomarker components were acquired with $r^2$ values ${\geq}0.9951$. The values of limit of detection and quantification of all analytes were 0.02~6.32 ng/ml and 0.05~18.95 ng/ml, respectively. The amounts of the 17 components in Dangguisu-san sample were $3.17{\sim}13,224.50{\mu}g/g$.

  • Due to the frequent occurrence of dangerous wild animals in rural or mountainous areas. it has been increasing damage of crops in every year. Fight bell or electric fence is typically installed to chase those wild animals. But there are problems that it is impossible to drive out birds and spends high installation and maintenance cost. In addition, it is inefficient to the risk of electric shock effect. In this study, the proposed system can drive out hazardous wildlife and birds regardless of installation location through realtime detection with the multi-sensing based IoT platform technology. This study showed a very large significance effect that can reduce crop damage by wildlife and birds.

  • Cardiac arrhythmias are associated with electrical Instability and, hence, with abnormal mechanical activity of the heart in many cases, arrhythmias can be treated with drugs or electric shock to control and/or stop them. Hence fast arrhythmia detection is very important. In this paper RR interval, QRS width, and morphology are used for diagnosis and QRS complex is detected by hardware system. hence diagnosing time is shorten. Moreover doctors or nurses who have little knowledge of computer manipulation can get the Information of Patient's ECG by showing characteristics of abnormal waveform and by mapping graphs of RR interval .vs. QRS width and RR interval .vs. morphology on screen.

  • In this paper, a method to guarantee system continuity is developed, which can be applied to discontinuity problem in the time domain of restructurable control system. This method can be summarized as input alternation using weight change considering convergence speed of system mode. Input is changed from 'system continuity guarantee input,' which is defined as a input that minimizes the change of state variables, to 'alternative controller input,' which is selected by Neil's PI/EAM[3]. AIDC aircraft model is used for simulation. By showing the waveform of system input and state variable, we can sure that this method is effective for depression of system shock like jerk.

  • A Sparse Point Representation(SPR) based on interpolation wavelets is presented. The SPR is implemented for the purpose of CFD data compression. Unlike conventional wavelet transformation, the SPR relieves computing workload in the similar fashion of lifting scheme that includes splitting and prediction procedures in sequence. However, SPR skips update procedure that is major part of lifting scheme. Data compression can be achieved by proper thresholding method. The advantage of the SPR method is that, by keeping even point physical values, low frequency filtering procedure is omitted and its related unphysical thresholing mechanism can be avoided in reconstruction process. Extra singular feature detection algorithm is implemented for preserving singular features such as shock and vortices. Several numerical tests show the adequacy of SPR for the CFD data. It is also shown that it can be easily extended to nonlinear adaptive wavelets for enhanced feature capturing.

  • Optical disk driver is being used in many electronic products besides computer. In particular, the demands are recently increased as an optical disk player in the mobile products such as camcorder or in the home theater appliances, or etc. However, under these circumstances, the disturbance inputs to the optical disk player increase gradually. In this paper, for reducing the possibility of malfunction of the optical disk player, we propose the method of detecting and controling the non-periodic external shock of the disturbances. Also, we execute some simulations and actual experiments and discuss the results.
