A discrimination technique for domestic and imported Scutellaria baicalensis was developed using an energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometer (ED-XRF). Mineral content ratios, of a total of 43 species, including P, S, Cl, K, Ca, Mn, Fe, Cu, and Zn, were measured among 204 samples. Macro element content ratios and trace element content ratios were determined using the standardless fundamental parameters (SLFP) analysis. Inorganic element ratios of P, S, K, Ca, Cl, Mn, and Fe were significantly different between domestic and imported samples. The result from the canonical discriminant analysis showed that the accuracy of geographical origin discrimination was 95.15%; the correlation coefficient was 0.888. It was concluded that this technique could be used as a useful method in discriminating the geographical origins between domestic and imported Scutellaria baicalensis.

In this study we developed a method for determining the geographic origin of soybeans by combining energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometry with statistical analysis. In 2018, 197 soybean samples (100 Korean domestic samples and 97 foreign samples) were collected for the construction of a geographic origin model. The mineral concentrations of 26 elements were measured and determined via the fundamental parameters approach. One-way analysis of variance, t-test, and canonical discriminant analysis were employed to reveal five elements (P, Ni, Br, Zn, and Mn) that could be used for the determination of geographic origins. The sensitivity, specificity, and efficiency for the above method were 91.0, 95.9, and 93.4%, respectively. Validation results from 60 samples collected in 2019 showed a predictive rate of 93.3% for Korean domestic soybeans and 100.0% for foreign soybeans. In conclusion, the combination of energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometry and chemometrics could be used to effectively determine the geographic origin of soybeans.

Simple algebraic expressions are derived to approximate the optimal input RMS pulse width and the resulting output RMS pulse width in single-mode fibers. The results are compared with the previously published methods and with numerical results by the split-step Fourier method. In addition, for a transform-limited Gaussian input pulse, it is shown that there is no optimum input pulse width to minimize the output spectrum width. Finally, with fiber nonlinearity, it is shown mathematically that there is not an optimum input pulse width to minimize the product,${\sigma}_t{\sigma}_{\omega}$, which is inversely proportional to the transmission capacity of WDM systems.

A SiO2/Si concave diffraction grating(period: 1.3${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$) for the angular dispersive element of WDM was fabricated by sandwiching the SiO2/Si plane diffraction grating between a slab waveguide and a cylindrical concave block. Using this concave grating and input/output fiber, and wavelength division demultiplexer was composed. The demultiplexer has five channels, the insertion loss of 30dB, the wavelength spacing per channel of 7nm and crosstalk of-15dB.

Whiskers of SiC were grown from the mixture of silica and graphite powders by Acheson method(direct heating method). The structrua, morphological and chemical characterizations have been performed by X-ray diffractometer(XRD), transmission electron microscopy(TEM), optical microscopy(OM), scanning electron microscopy(SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) and energy dispersive spectrometer(EDS). The growth mechanism of SiC whiskers is also discussed.

The stalks of the eustigmatophyte $Pseudocharaciopsis$ $minuta$ were examined by light and scanning electron microscopy. Light microscopy revealed orange-red granules at the base of the stalk. Energy dispersive X-ray microanalysis of the bases indicated that they were mainly composed of manganese. Manganese has not been previously reported from eustigmatophytes. This study indicates that the Eustigmatophyceae needs further study into many aspects of the biology.

A method of the leak detection from the pipe system by using accelerometer is proposed. The signal detected from accelerometer is proved experimentally to be a dispersive wave. Based on the experiments, a method using the narrow band pass filter and the unit impulse response function is analyzed. The method uses the characteristics of the unit impulse response function, that the function is available evenin the narrow band signal because, unlike the cross correlation, it is normalized by the auto spectrum. The accelerometer is quite easier to use than the hydrophone in adapting to the pipe system.

High pressure X-ray diffraction study was carried out on a natural FeO(OH)-goethite to investigate its compressibility at room temperature. Energy dispersive X-ray diffraction method was employed using Mao-Bell type diamond anvil cell with Synchrotron Radiation. MgO powder was compressed together with goethite for the high pressure determinations. Bulk modullus was determined to be 147.9 GPa by the Birch-Murnaghan equation of state under assumption of K0' of 4. This value was subjected to compare with its structural analogs and related materials.

The paper describes a theoretical study on the speed of torsional elastic waves propagating in a circular rod whose material properties vary periodically as harmonic functions of the axial coordinate. An approximate solution for the phase speed has been obtained by using the perturbation technique for sinusoidal modulation of small amplitude. This solution shows that the wave speed in the nonuniform rod is dependent on the wave frequency as well as the periodic variation of the material properties. It implies that the torsional waves considered in this paper are dispersive even in the fundamental mode.
