The number of jet aircraft is increasing. The aircraft noise making people near airports nervous have become a serious social problem. The aircraft noise can be classified into two groups; noise being generated at take-off or landing and noise form run-up test on the ground. In this paper, we consider the aircraft noise from run-up test on the pound and we suggest the noise suppression system.

The \gamma-ray spectrometer of the PGAA (Prompt Gamma Activation Analysis) facility constructed at HANARO of the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute was upgraded to the multi-mode spectrometer including the single mode, the Compton suppression mode and the pair mode. The performance of the spectrometer was tested and summarized. The background count rate and the uncertainty of the detection efficiency were reduced greatly in comparison with those before the new installation.

Analytical solutions and finite element results of laminated composite plates with smart material layers embedded in them are presented in this study. The third-order plate theory of Reddy is used to study vibration suppression characteristics. The analytical solution for simply supported boundary conditions is based on the Navier solution procedure. The velocity feedback control is used. Parametric effects of the position of the smart material layers, material properties, and control parameters on the suppression time are investigated. It has been found that (a) the minimum vibration suppression time is achieved by placing the smart material layers farthest from the neutral axis, (b) using thinner smart material layers have better vibration attenuation characteristics, and, (c) the vibration suppression time is larger for a lower value of the feedback control coefficient.

Transform-domain JND (Just Noticeable Difference)-based for PVC (Perceptual Video Coding) is often performed in quantization processes to effectively remove perceptual redundancy. This study examined the JND-suppression effects on quantized coefficients of transform in HEVC (High Efficiency Video Coding). To reveal the JND-suppression effect in quantization, the properties of the floor functions were used for modeling the quantized coefficients, and a JND-adjustment process in an HEVC-compliant PVC scheme was used to tune the JND values by analyzing the JND suppression effect. In the experimental results, the bitrate reduction decreases slightly, but the PSNR and perceptual quality are improved significantly when the proposed JND adjustment process is applied.

This letter presents a new type of resonator, namely, the split quarterwave microstrip resonator (SQMR), to improve the poor harmonic suppression and low Q-factors in conventional quarterwave microstrip resonators. An oscillator incorporating the proposed SQMR is designed, fabricated, and tested to demonstrate that, not only the second harmonic suppression, but also the phase noise of the oscillator can be improved. The oscillator with the SQMR shows improved second harmonic suppression of -74.59 dBc and phase noise figure of merit of -169.77 dBc/Hz at 1 MHz offset.

In the present investigation, experimental studies were conducted on the fire suppression performance of twin-fluid water mist spray which is subjected to thermal radiation in a closed space. Downward-directed water-mist sprays, interacting with an under kerosene pool fire, were investigated in a test facility. The mass mean diameter of water-mist droplets were measured by PMAS under various flow conditions. The developed twin-fluid water mit spray nozzle satisfied the criteria of NFPA 750, Class 1. The mechanism of fire suppression by fine water mist was concluded to be the cooling of the fire surface which leads to the suppression of fuel evaporation. It was proved that the automatic twin-fluid water mist spray system under lower pressures could be applied to an industrial facilities.

We propose a new technique for sidelobe suppression in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. Sidelobe suppression is an essential technique to design OFDM based overlay system. The proposed technique is based on the combination of the multiple choice sequence (MCS) with the conventional windowing of OFDM signal in time domain. The MCS is choosing the one sequence which has lowest power in sidelobes from the produced set of sequences. The main advantage of proposed technique is that it fully utilizes the available bandwidth to transmit data. Simulation results show that by combining MCS with conventional windowing technique, the sidelobes in OFDM system can be significantly reduced

Unnatural amino acid S-(2-nitrobenzyl)cysteine was incorporated into human erythropoietin by using a programmed suppression of nonsense codon in a cell-free protein synthesis system. Several controlling factors affecting the operational efficiency of the suppression were investigated and optimized. The amount of suppressor tRNA and the concentration of $Mg^2+$ were crucial not only for the efficiency but also for the control of the exact suppression. In addition, some general optimization factor are reported in order to improve the efficiency in an unnatural amino acid mutagenesis.

We report two cases of spinal subdural hematoma in the lumbar region after trauma. They developed in a 27-years old man and a 32-year-old woman. They had no other causes such as bleeding tendency, preexisting spinal lesions, lumbar puncture, vascular malformation and anticoagulant therapy. There lesions were diagnosed with MRI(fat suppression) and treated by lumbar puncture.

The objective of this paper is to present a new input torque shaping method for slewing and vibration suppression of flexible structure based on Fourier series expansion. Vibration energy of the structure with shaped control input is investigated with respect to the shaping parameter of the reference torque, maneuver time and the number of trigonometric functions to be included in the series. Analytic expressions of the performance indices and their derivatives are derived in the modal coordinates. Numerical results show the effectiveness of the proposed approach to design the open-loop control law that modifies the shape of input torque for simultaneous slewing and vibration suppression.
