Active mufflers have been mainly applied in the large industrial engine due to considerable expense for implementation, but a necessity of development has been increased by the tightened regulation of exhaust noise and the request of high power. In this study, the active muffler prototype for installing in an automobile is designed and constructed. The active muffler is designed so that the primary noise and the control sound are propagated as a plane wave in the outlet. Therefore, the error microphone could be placed outside the high temperature centers of the tail pipe, and the noise radiating to the outside could be reduced in the whole areas around the outlet. For evaluating the control performance of the prototype, the control experiments of band-pass filtered random signal and the modulation of sinusoidal signal which are generated from the primary noise speaker as practical exhaust sound level are implemented. And to investigate the radiation pattern from the outlet of tail pipe and the noise reduction level of points placed adjacent to the outlet, the sound level of adjacent points of thirty is measured.

본 논문은 능동적인 큐 관리를 이용한 새로운 패킷 탈락 알고리즘에 대해 연구이다. 능동적인 큐 관리 기법은 기존의 Drop Tail과 다른데, Drop Toil은 버퍼 오버플로우가 발생하면 패킷 탈락되는 반면, 능동적인 큐 관리 기법인 RED는 폭주가 발생하기 전에 패킷이 탈락된다는 것이다. 그러나 능동적인 큐 관리 기법은 버퍼 크기가 충분히 크지 않을 때 높은 패킷 손실률을 초래한다. 폭주를 탐지하고 무작위로 선택된 연결에 이를 통보함에 의한 글로벌 동기화와 공정성 문제를 야기하며, 최적의 평균 큐 길이를 찾기 위해서는 네트워크 트래픽 특성이 미리 알려져야 한다는 커다란 문제가 있다. 본 논문에서는 폭주제어를 위한 새로운 큐 관리 기법 기반의 효율적인 패킷 탈락 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 기법은 플로우별 도착률과 추정된 공정한 대역을 사용한다. 이를 이용하여 플로우 도착률과 링크 대역을 계산하기 위한 추정 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안된 기법은 패킷 손실을 가져오는 패킷에 의한 큐 길이의 급속한 진동을 초래하지 않기 때문에 네트워크 성능을 향상시킬 수 있음을 보인다.

Spermatogenesis and the reproductive cycle in male Spisula sachalinensis were investigated by cytological and histological observations. The morphology of the spermatozoon has a primitive type and is similar to those of other bivalves in that it contains a short midpiece with four mitochondria surrounding the centrioles. But spermatozoon of this species has not axial rod and satellite body in the midpiece. The morphologies of the sperm nucleus type and the acrosome shape of this species have a globe-shape type and modified cap-like shape, respectively. The spermatozoon is approximately $40-45{\mu}m$ in length including the sperm nucleus length (about $1.35{\mu}m$), acrosome length (about $1.50{\mu}m$) and tail flagellum. The axoneme of the sperm tail flagellum consists of nine pairs of microtubules at the periphery and a pair at the center. The axoneme of the sperm tail shows a 9+2 structure. The spawning period of these species lasts from June to July, and the main spawning occurs in July when seawater temperatures are greater than $20^{\circ}C$. The male reproductive cycle of this species can be categorized into five successive stages: early active stage (October to January), late active stage (February to April), ripe stage (April to June), partially spawned stage (June and July), and spent/inactive stage (August to September).

In order to examine the effectiveness of moxibustion stimulation for climacteric disturbance, we administered moxibustion stimulation to ovariectomized (OVX) rats, and compared the tail surface temperature, laboratory parameters, and the level of locomotor activity with those of untreated rats. Twenty-four female Wistar rats (8 weeks old, 160 - 180 g) were divided into three groups. The rats in the OVX-M group underwent moxibustion stimulation after ovariectomy. The rats in the OVX-C group underwent ovariectomy but did not receive moxibustion stimulation. The rats in the Normal group received neither ovariectomy nor moxibustion stimulation. The level of locomotor activity was determined by a metabolism measuring system. The tail surface temperature was significantly lower in the OVX rats before moxibustion stimulation than in the Normal group. In the OVX rats before moxibustion stimulation, there was no clear difference in the level of locomotor activity between the active and resting phases, and the pattern of locomotor activity was irregular. After moxibustion stimulation, the tail surface temperature of the OVX-M group did not significantly differ from that of the Normal group, and the pattern of locomotor activity of the OVX-M group became diphasic with clear active and resting phases, similar to that observed in the Normal group. These results demonstrate that moxibustion stimulation is effective for the treatment of climacteric disturbance.

Gonad index, spermatogenesis and the reproductive cycle of Meretrix petechialis were investigated by cytological, histological observations. Monthly changes in the gonad index coincides the gonadal development. The morphology of the spermatozoon had a primitive type and is similar to that of other bivalves having a short mid-piece with five to six mitochondria surrounding the centrioles. The morphology of the sperm nucleus type and the acrosome shape of this species were cylindrical type and cap-like shape, respectively. The spermatozoon was approximately 40-45 ${\mu}m$ in length including the sperm nucleus length (about 1.50 ${\mu}m$), acrosome length (0.60 ${\mu}m$) and tail flagellum. The axoneme of the tail flagellum consisted of nine pairs of microtubules at the periphery and a pair at the center. The axoneme of the sperm tail showed 9 + 2 microtubular arrangement. The spawning period was from June to September and the main spawning occurred from July to August when seawater temperatures were higher than $20^{\circ}C$. The reproductive cycle of this species could be categorized into five successive stages: early active stage (February to March), late active stage (February to May), ripe stage (April to July), partially spawned stage (June to September), and spent/inactive stage (September to February).

Purpose In this study, We observed the recovery process in the ability to move in the hind limbs of the rats whose spinal cord injuries were treated by Radix acouniti(RA). The purpose of this study is to see the effects of Radix acouniti(RA) water extract on the contraction of rat's spinal cord injury. Procedure First, the rats were subjected to hemisectional spinal cord injuries by a scalpel blade. Those rats, then, were divided into three groups: Sham operated rats group and the experimental group, which received the Radix acouniti(RA) water extract, and the control group, which had no treatment. Their recovery in the ability to walk was observed by the Open Field Test (OFT) for 14 days after the injuries. Method The OFT was applied at four points: the hip, knee, ankle joint, and the tail. Each joint was given a movement rating of from 0 to 3, depending on the amount of movement. A movement rating of 0 designates no movement, a 1 designates slight movement, a 2 designates increased movement, and a 3 designates active movement. Slight movement is defined as a joint displaying less than or equal to 30% of that joint range, increased movement is displaying less than or equal to 60% of that joint's range, and active movement is greater than or equal to 90% of that joint's range. Tail movement is also graded on a scale of 0 to 3. A rating of 0 indicates that the tail is down 100% of the time, one of 1 indicates that the tail is down more than 10%, one of 2 shows that the tail is down less than 50% but more than 10% of the time, and one of 3 shows that the tail is down less than 10% of the time. All four ratings were added together and then averaged to arrive at a single score. Results The sham group which did not go through spinal cord injuries showed near normal results on all 3 joints and tail from right after the operation, which one would expect. The RA oral application group showed more effective recovery of movememt function than the control group around 4 days after the spinal cord injuries. However, after 14 days, both groups displayed almost the same degree of movement recovery. The results of this study are summarized as follows: 1. After 14days the spinal cord injuries, movement was recovered in sham operated group, control group, and experimented group in the hip, the knee, the tail and then the ankle of rats, in that order. 2. Around 7 days after the spinal cord injuries, the experimental group proved the effectiveness of the therapy in terms of movement recovery. 3. The level of ALT, ALP, AST in RA treated group was slightly increased. 4. The level of BUN and creatinine in RA treated group was slightly increased. The above results indicate that RA therapy at an early stage can bring about better movement recovery in patients with spinal cord injuries from traffic accidents or industrial disasters. But there is apparent side effect of RA on clinical, therefore the study on this should be continued.

SRMs(Switched Reluctance Motors) are much interested in high speed applications due to the mechanical robustness, simple structure and high efficiency. In spite of many advantages of SRMs, a higher torque ripple discourages the adoption of SRMs in a high speed application. This paper presents a simple negative torque of tail current compensation scheme using a modified TSF(Torque Sharing Function) for the high speed SRMs. Because of the short commutation in the high speed region, the negative torque from the tail current makes the high torque ripple. In order to reduce and compensate the negative torque from tail current, the proposed control scheme produces an additional compensating torque with a reference torque in the active phase winding. And the compensating value is dependent on the tail current of the inactive phase winding. Furthermore, the switching signals of the outgoing phase are fully turned off to restrict the extended tail current, and the torque error of the outgoing phase is compensated by the incoming phase. The proposed modified TSF control scheme is verified by the computer simulations with 30,000[rpm] high speed 4/2 SRM. The simulation and experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.

Analgesic effect of DA-5018, a new capsaicin derivative, was evaluated in various rat models of experimentally induced acute pain. DA-5018(0.2∼10.0 mg/kg, p.o.) prevented the writhing syndromes induced by acetic acid or phenol-p-benzoquinone(PBQ). It increased the pain threshold of inflamed paw when tested by the Randall-Selitto method at the dose of 2.0∼20.0 mg/kg by oral administration. And also it showed antinociceptive activities in tail-pinch(1.0∼20.0 mg/kg, p.o.) and tail-flick test(5.0∼50.0 mg/kg, p.o.). the potency and efficacy of DA-5018 were comparable to morphine · HCI in all the models mentioned above. Acetaminophen exhibited the inhibition of acetic acid-induced writhing syndromes and also analgesic activity in Randall-Selitto test, but it showed the limited efficacy in tail-pinch and tail-flick test. These results mean that DA-5018 has a broader analgesic activity profile than acetaminophen. And we found out that the analgesic activity of DA-5018 was 100 times more potent when administered centrally than administered orally in tail-flick test. These results suggest that DA-5018 has an orally active analgesic activity, and central nervous system may be involved in the action of DA-5018.

기존의 인터넷 라우터는 Drop tail 방식으로 패킷을 관리한다. 따라서 네트워크 트래픽의 지수적인 증가로 인한 혼잡 상황으로 발생하는 패킷 손실을 해결 할 수 없다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해 IETF(Internet Engineering Task Force)에서는 RED(Random Early Detection) 알고리즘과 같은 능동적인 큐 관리 알고리즘을 제시하였다. 하지만 RED 알고리즘은 네트워크 환경에 따른 매개 변수의 설정의 어려움을 가지고 있어 잘못된 매개변수 설정으로 인하여 네트워크 성능이 저하되는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 RED 알고리즘을 분석하여 문제점을 파악하고 이 문제점을 개선한 새로운 ARED (Active Random Early Detection) 알고리즘을 제안했다. ARED 알고리즘은 네트워크 특성에 맞추어 동적으로 매개변수를 조절하므로서 기존의 RED 알고리즘을 개선한 알고리즘이다. ns(network simulation)를 이용한 실험을 통하여 ARED 알고리즘의 성능을 검증하였다.
