  • In this paper, a near zero If mixer was designed in cascode structure by using two single-gate FETs. Since it is driven by the second order harmonic of LO signal, a sub-harmonic cascode FET mixer has good LO-RF port isolation characteristic. In order to solve DC offset of a homodyne system, near zero If is used instead of zero If and the mixer is driven by sub-harmonic of LO signal. As RF input power was -30 dBm and LO power was 6 dBm, the designed mixer had 6.7 dB conversion gain, 8.4 dB noise figure, 31.5 dB LO-RF port isolation, -1.9 dBm lIP3 and -2.8 dBm IIP2.

  • This study suggests new antenna design for polarization diversity. For dual polarization, two port feeding lines are printed on two separate layers and cross-shaped aperture is located on ground between the substrates. For reducing back radiation, a reflector is attached around $\lambda$/4 behind feeding substrates. For wide bandwidth we use a perturbed patch with saw tooth shaped. This perturbation effect causes reduction of antenna size and also reduction of array size. With the antenna proposed here, $1\times4$ array dual polarization antenna for polarization diversity of PCS base station is built. One single element has as large as 10.3%, 11.3% bandwidths at each port, V.S.W.R less than 1.3 and the isolation is less than -40 dB, also array antenna has 13.2% 12.7% band bandwidth, V.S.W.R less than 1.3 the isolation below -36dB and the XPD of 10 dB.

  • The friction pendulum system(FPS) is a kind of seismic isolation devices for isolating structures from an earthquake. To analyze the effect of friction materials used in the friction pendulum system, fragility analysis of LNG tank with seismic isolation system was conducted. In this study, titanium dioxide($TiO_2$) nanoparticles were incorporated into polyvinylidene fluoride(PVDF) matrix to produce friction materials attached to the FPS. The base moment of the concrete outer tank and the acceleration of the structure were evaluated from different mixing ratios of constituents for the friction materials. The seismic fragility curves were developed based on two types of limit state. It is confirmed that evaluation of combined fragility curves with several limit states can be applied to select the optimum friction material satisfying the required performance of the FPS for various infrastructure.

  • Electric transformers are major components of electrical systems, and damage to them caused by earthquakes can result in significant financial loss. The current study modeled a three-dimensional (3D) isolated electrical transformer under horizontal and vertical records from different earthquakes. Instead of using fixed coefficients, an improved wavelet method has been used to create the greatest compatibility between the response spectra and the target spectrum. This method has primarily been used for dynamic analysis of isolated structures with spring-damper devices because it has shown greater accuracy in predicting the response of such structures. The effect of the nonlinear soil-structure interaction on the probability of transformer failure also has been investigated. Soil and structure interaction modeling was carried out using a beam on a nonlinear Winkler foundation. The effect of the nonlinear soil-structure interaction during dynamic analysis of transformers revealed that the greatest increase in the probability of transformer failure was in the fixed-base condition when the structure was located on soft soil. This intensified the response of the structure and increased the probability of transformer failure by up to 27% for far-field and up to 95% for near-field ground motions. A comparison of the results indicates that the use of 3D isolation systems in transformers in areas with soft clay that are subject to near-field ground motions can strongly reduce the probability of failure and improve the seismic performance of the transformer.

  • 3,3-dichlorobenzidine is suspected to be cancinogenic in experimental animal and human. Several studies have investigated excretion of metabolites in urine, hemoglobin adduction and cancer incidence among workers occupationally exposed to 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine. In these researches, metabolites of 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine had a very important role, and were required as highly purity. The purpose of this study was synthesis and isolation of its metabolites from 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine. 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine was partially dissolved in benzene, ether, ethanol and methanol, and completely dissolved in 70% acetic acid on mixtures of citric acid containing less than 1% DCB, pyridine, a mixture of 0.5N NaOH and toluene(1:2), and phenol saturated with 20 mM TRIZA base. DCB, monoacetyl-DCB and diacetyl-DCB were measured by using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry(GC/MS). Detection for checking them was nitrogen phosphorous detection mode(NPD), and for identifying them was selected ion monitoring mode(SIM). The base peaks were 252 m/z in DCB, 252, and 294 m/z in monoacetyl-DCB, and 252, 294 and 336 m/z in diacetyl-DCB, respectively. Diacetyl-DCB was synthesized by titrating DCB solution of pyridine with sufficient acetyl chloride. Precipitation was diacetyl-DCB, which was purity of 98.7%. And its supernatant was composed of DCB, monoacetyl-DCB and diacetyl-DCB. By using acetic acid as controller of acetylation, monoacetyl-DCB was isolated from diacetyl-DCB . And residual pyridine was removed by using acetone. The purity of monoacetyl-DCB was 98.8%.

  • Species of the genus Orobanche are parasitic flowering plants, holoparasites, which cling to the roots of green plants. Their tiny seeds (200 x $250\mu\textrm{m}$) germinate in response to chemical stimuli produced by host and some non-host plants. Successful contact with their host leads to development of haustoria for obtaining water and food. The shoots above the ground expose flowers and disseminate seeds. Several samples of Orobanche ramosa, O. crenata, O. cernua, and O. egyptiaca were collected from different localities in Jordan. These samples showed one of the following disease symptoms: dry rot at the base of the stem; general deterioration and expanded lesion from base upward; soft tissue maceration of stem; and black rot of flower parts with incomplete maturation of the ovary and seeds. Isolation from diseased stems and seeds was made on three different mycological media. Several fungi were isolated, mainly, Fusarium spp., Alternaria alternata, Rhizoctonia sp., Dendrophora sp., Chaetomium sp., and an ascomycetus fungus with a perithecium. Pathogenicity tests showed that Fusarium spp. and Alternaria alternata attacked healthy living tissue of Orobanche spikes. These fungi caused lesions of black soft rot and complete deterioration within 5-7 days. They also attacked Orobanche seeds, arresting their germination and causing maceration of non-germinated and germinated seeds after 5-7 days of incubation. Meanwhile, Dendrophora sp. and Chaetomium sp. caused limited lesion at first, but were able to colonize the tissue as it aged and senesced. This study showed the presence of a potential endogenous pathogenic fungi in Jordan, which can be investigated as a biological control for Orobanche.
