  • This study attempts to derive measures to improve content claims of free antibiotic livestock products(FLP) through analyzing situations for the FLP market and results of survey for its providers. Recently the number of certified farms has been decreasing, but shipments per farm has been increasing. Furthermore as the COVID-19 has increased health and environmental concern, shipments of FLP have showed a steady increase. The distribution channel of FLP, regardless of varieties, is similar to that of general livestock products(GLP). The major results from survey for providers of FLP are little difference in between content claims of GLP and FLP and low utilization of FLP in production of livestock processed products compared with its shipments. The policies for content claims of FLP suggested by this study are permission of FLP authentication labelling for livestock processed products and permission of those which contain FLP over 70% in the first step.

  • Changes of silk protein compositions of average molecular weight (Mw) and free amino acid composition to different solubility conditions were studied by SDS-polyacrylamide electropholesis, gel permeation chromatography (GPC), and free amino acid analysis method. We can not detected average molecular weight distribution of different hydrochloric acid (HCl) conditions as SDS-polyacrylamide method, but as using GPC method, molecular weight distribution of 2N-HCl, 1N-HCl and 0.5N-HCl (3 hrs at $110^{\circ}C$ treated) are confirmed Mw 800, 1,500 and 3,700, respectively. The average molecular weight of calcium chroride and calcium chloride-enzyme treated samples are shown Mw 46,800 and 12,500, respectively. The degree of hydrolysis and the composition of the free amino acid in the fibroin hydrolysates effected significantly composition of free amino acids of the fibroin powder. The increase of the degree of hydrolysis and ratio of free amino acids and oligopeptides were found to be directly related to the concentration of hydrochloric acid and treatment of enzyme, resulting in the increase of water solubility.

  • In this paper we proposed an unsupervised algorithm to estimate the reverberation time (RT) directly from the reverberant speech signal. For estimation process we use maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) which is a very well-known and state of the art method for estimation in the field of signal processing. All existing RT estimation methods are based on the decay rate distribution. The decay rate can be obtained either from the energy envelop decay curve analysis of noise source when it is switch off or from decay curve of impulse response of an enclosure. The analysis of a pre-existing method of reverberation time estimation is the foundation of the proposed method. In one of the state of the art method, the reverberation decay is modeled as a Laplacian distribution. In this paper, the proposed method models the reverberation decay as a Gamma distribution along with the unification of an effective technique for spotting free decay in reverberant speech. Maximum likelihood estimation technique is then used to estimate the RT from the free decays. The method was motivated by our observation that the RT of a reverberant signal when falls in specific range, then the decay rate of the signal follows Gamma distribution. Experiments are carried out on different reverberant speech signal to measure the accuracy of the suggested method. The experimental results reveal that the proposed method performs better and the accuracy is high in comparison to the state of the art method.

  • Modifications of t he weighted Mack-Wolfe tests are proposed for both cases when the peak of umbrella is known and unknown. The modified weighted Mack-Wolfe tests are exactly distribution-free when the continuous populations have the same shape. For the case of peak-known umbrella alternatives, the modified weighted Mack-Wolfe tests remain asymptotically distribution-free when the continuous populations are symmetric, but not necessarily with the same shape. For the case of peak-unknown umbrella alternatives, the maximum of standardized modified weighted Mack-Wolfe tests with peak-known umbrella alternatives was used. The simulation results show that the modified weighted Mack-Wolfe tests are more recommended than the modified Mack-Wolfe tests for various patterns.

  • We propose an optical Asynchronous Transfer Mode(ATM) switching system using free-space optics and an output buffer memory. The distributor system in the switching fabric was analyzed using the Huygens-Fresnel principle and lens transformation. For monochromatic illumination, a pattern similar to the Fourier transform of the input distribution was observed across the output plane. A spatially broadened intensity distribution across the the output plane can be expected when the system is illminated with a partially coherent, quasimonochromatic beam. Spatially coherent pulses as short as 100fs can propagate through the distributor without severe spatial broadening.

  • This experimental study was performed to find rpms of the impeller and the surface flow accelerator to make a uniform velocity vertical distribution in the circular water channel. PIV technique was employed to measure the water velocity profiles into the water depth from the free surface. The number of instantaneous velocity profiles was decomposed into mean and turbulence velocity components, and the distribution of velocity fluctuation and turbulence intensity were computed for each experimental condition. From these results, the velocity uniformity was quantitatively determined to present the flow quality in the measuring section of the circular water channel. It has been shown that the proper operation of the surface flow accelerator would make the uniform velocity profiles and reduce the velocity fluctuation near the free surface.

  • The Bayesian approach to reliability acceptance sampling has several advantages over the non-Bayesian approach. For instance, the former usually requires less amount of testing time and smaller sample sizes than the latter. In this article, a Bayesian acceptance sampling plan(ASP) based on a failure-free period life test is developed under the assumption of exponential lifetime distribution, and is compared with the corresponding Bayesian hybrid ASP in terms of the expected completion time. It is found that the proposed ASP tends to have a smaller expected completion time than the Bayesian hybrid ASP as the prior assessment of the reliability of a lot becomes optimistic, and vice versa. Tables of failure-free period Bayesian ASP's are also included.

  • Bending, buckling and free vibration responses of functionally graded (FG) higher-order beams resting on two parameter (Winkler-Pasternak) elastic foundation are studied using a new inverse hyperbolic beam theory. The material properties of the beam are graded along the thickness direction according to the power-law distribution. In the present theory, the axial displacement accounts for an inverse hyperbolic distribution, and the transverse shear stress satisfies the traction-free boundary conditions on the top and bottom surfaces of the beams. Hamilton's principle is employed to derive the governing equations of motion. Navier type analytical solutions are obtained for the bending, bucking and vibration problems. Numerical results are obtained to investigate the effects of power-law index, length-to-thickness ratio and foundation parameter on the displacements, stresses, critical buckling loads and frequencies. Numerical results by using parabolic beam theory of Reddy and first-order beam theory of Timoshenko are specially generated for comparison of present results and found in excellent agreement with each other.

  • The current study evaluated the disinfection efficiency of free chlorine and chloramine for microorganisms on various pipe materials, such as copper, galvanized steel, carbon steel, and stainless steel. In addition, the effect of internal pipe corrosion and corrosion inhibitors on the bactericidal efficiency was evaluated using a simulated loop. For disinfection with a phosphate corrosion inhibitor, chloramination was found to be more effective than chlorination due to its persistence. Free chlorine disinfection was optimized with a high phosphoric acid concentration, while chloramine disinfection was optimized with a high phosphoric acid or low polyphosphate concentration. In simulated copper and galvanized steel loop tests, chloramination with phosphoric acid was demonstrated to be more effective.
