The charateristics of switching between two modes in a ring dye laser has been analyzed by the Monte-Carlo computer simulation. The effect of including pump fluctuations in the first-passage-time (FPT) distributions was compared with the distribution with the quantum fluctuation. The results show the same tendency in both cases, such as steep increases from 0 to peak an exponential decrease in long time range. However the introduction of pumping fluctuation is turned out to shorten the mean FPT. The variation of the mean FPT is examined for the various fluctuationrelated parameters. The mean FPT is lengthened when pump parameter a is increased while it is shorted when Q. $\GAMMA$ are decreased. eased.

To understand how human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) might change and evolve after reactivation, it is very important to understand how the nucleotide sequence of cultured HCMV changes after in vitro passaging in cell culture, and how these changes affect the genome of HCMV and the consequent variation in amino acid sequence. Strain JHC of HCMV was propagated in vitro for more than 40 passages and its biological and genetic changes were monitored. For each passage, real-time PCR was performed in order to determine the genome copy number, and a plaque assay was employed to get virus infection titers. The infectious virus titers gradually increased with passaging in cell culture, whereas the number of virus genome copies remained relatively unchanged. A linear correlation was observed between the passage number and the log₁₀ infectious virus titer per virus genome copy number. To understand the genetic basis underlying the increase in HCMV infectivity with increasing passage, the whole-genome DNA sequence of the high-passage strain was determined and compared with the genome sequence of the low-passage strain. Out of 100 mutations found in the high-passage strain, only two were located in an open reading frame. A G-T substitution in the RL13 gene resulted in a nonsense mutation and caused an early stop. A G-A substitution in the UL122 gene generated an S-F nonsynonymous mutation. The mutations in the RL13 and UL122 genes might be related to the increase in virus infectivity, although the role of the mutations found in noncoding regions could not be excluded.

Sixteen adult Barbari bucks were divided into 4 homogeneous groups, each group was offered wheat straw (WS) at levels 75, 100, 125 and 150 per cent of ad libitum intake in a factorial randomized complete block design. All goats were uniformly fed a supplement ($13.5g\;DM/kg\;W^{0.75}$) to fulfill their requirement for protein at maintenance level. The experimental feeding of goats at different levels for 21 days was followed by a digestion trial of 6 days and determination of rate of passage of digesta for 144 h duration, respectively. Intake ($g/kg\;W^{0.75}$) of dry matter (DM), organic matter (OM), digestible DM and digestible OM increased with increase in amount of WS offered. The levels of WS refusals for obtaining upper limit of intake was found to be above 30% of DMO. Concentration of ADF and lignin was significantly lower and CP was higher (p>0.05) in food ingested relative to food offered or refused in response to increasing allowance of WS. Dietary means of particulate rate of passage from rumen, transit time and total mean retention time ranged from 0.032 to 0.036/h, 19.10 to 21.72/h and 58.61 to 61.53/h respectively and did not show significant differences (p>0.05) irrespective of dietary level of WS. The results suggest that DMI and quality of ingested WS would improve with higher rates of offer and refusals (${\geq}30%$ of DMO) without any pronounced effect on passage kinetics of digesta, because of the greater opportunity afforded to goats for selective feeding.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of neuromuscular electrical stimulation(NMES) on the spasticity of elbow flexor. Ten spastic hemiplegia who have been at EUL-JI medical college hospital in Taejon with age range of 35 to 70 years$(56.8\pm9.5)$, were participated in this study. The subjects (5male, 5female) took neuromuscular electrical stimulation therapy on the triceps of the affected elbow. To compare the effect of the treatment, the grade of spasticity of affected elbow flexor was measured at pre-treatment and the end of each weeks using modified Ashworth scale. Then, the range of extension of the affected elbow was measured at pre-treatmen and the end of each weeks using full circle goniometer. The data were analyzed with ANOVA to determine significant differences with the passage of time. The results were as follows: 1. ANOVA test showed significant differences in reducing spasticity of NMES group with the passage of time (p<.01). 2. ANOVA test showed significant differences in increasing range of motion with the passage of time of NMES group(p<.01). The neuromuscular electrical stimulation is a effective method to reduce the spasticity of elbow flexor.

The presence of crust on the inner walls of metallic ducts impairs transportation because crust completely or partially hinders the passage of fluid to the processing unit and causes damage to equipment connected to the production line. Its localization is crucial. With the development of the electronic imaging system installed at the Argonauta/Nuclear Engineering Institute (IEN)/National Nuclear Energy Commission (CNEN) reactor, it became possible to visualize crust in the interior of metallic piping of small diameter using real-time neutron radiography images obtained with a low neutron flux. The obtained images showed the resistance offered by crust on the passage of water inside the pipe. No discrepancy of the flow profile at the bottom of the pipe, before the crust region, was registered. However, after the passage of liquid through the pipe, images of the disturbances of the flow were clear and discrepancies in the flow profile were steep. This shows that this technique added the assembled apparatus was efficient for the visualization of the crust and of the two-phase flows.

The present study was investigated combustion characteristics of methane-air mixtures at stratified charge in a constant volume combustion chamber. The main results obtained from this study can be summarized as follows. In case of ${\phi}_s=1.0$, total burning times greatly affected rather than initial time of pressure increase and maximum combustion pressure. In case of ${\phi}_t=1.0$, initial time of pressure increase and total burning times were affected considerably in comparison with the case of ${\phi}_s=1.0$. Also, even the very lean mixture which total equivalence ratio is ${\phi}_t=0.69$(${\phi}_s=1.0$, ${\phi}_m=0.65$), by changing configuration of the critical passage-hole and using a stratified mixture, it is possible to decrease substantially the initial time of pressure increase. total burning times and NOx concentration without deteriorating combustion characteristics such as maximum combustion pressure, rate of heat release etc. in comparison with the use of single chamber(in case of ${\phi}=1.0$) only. Specifically, our trends were revealed remarkably in the case of Type D which is reduced a flame contact area of sub-chamber side of the passage-hole.

The principal objective of this study was to determine the quality and potential of DHEA formation after the addition of diosgenin of yam(Dioscorea spp.) during the fermentation of soybean paste. All samples were divided into three groups based on the variety of yam. In sample A, the soy source was not separated from soybean paste and in sample B, the soybean source was separated from soybean paste. The range in salt concentration in the samples was as follows : sample A: 10.5~11.8%, samples B: 7.9~8.8%. However, no substantial differences between the two samples, in terms of salt content, were observed. The crude protein and crude lipid content were found to decrease with the fermentation time of soybean paste(passage of 30 days: 26.4~32.3% and 4.45~5.90%, passage of 60 days: 24.5~28.5% and 3.95~4.90%, respectively). As the fermentation time of soybean paste increased, the nitrogen from amino compounds increased(passage of 30 days: 531.9~687.7 mg%, passage of 60 days: 551.3~706.8 mg%). In regards to color and preference, sample B, where the soy source was separated from soybean paste, was better than sample A, where the two components were not separated. After a soybean paste fermentation time of 60 days, the diosgenin of yam, which was added to the soybean paste, was not detected in tested samples, and the contents of DHEA formation in soybean paste were as follows: sample A: $488.0\pm42.5{\sim}719.3\pm44.8{\mu}g/g$, sample B: $287.3\pm20.6{\sim}482.7{\pm}36.5{\mu}g/g$.
