This study was performed to investigate whether vision therapy (vision training) was an effective way to influence fusional vergence and asthenopic symptoms in case of convergence excess. Patients who had esophoria at far and near had history and symptoms (horizontal diplopia, eye strain, asthenopia and blur). Among them for one chosen patient who had convergence excess, vision therapy and added plus lens were prescribed and trained for 7 weeks. 7 weeks later vision therapy was quite effective, that is, it was an effective means of reducing symptoms, improving fusional vergence and decompensating esophoria in patient with convergence excess. Therefore continuous research of vision therapy in binocular dysfunction was necessary.

Earthquake motion is one of the most significant influence factors on the slope stability. In this paper, an effective stress analysis with the elasto-plastic model was carried out to investigate the behavior of the slope stability subjected to the successive two strong earthquake motions, fore and main shock. The major influence of fore shock to the slope stability was considered as the existence of the residual excess pore water pressure. The paper presents the influence of the existence of the fore shock to slope stability using the numerical analyses. In conclusion, the excess pore pressure by the fore shock was not dissipated during the 7hrs of consolidation. By this residual excess pore water pressure, the factor of safety at the sliding face showed the minimum values, and the deformations of slope was large when compared with the case that considered the main shock only. Furthermore, the minimum of the factor of safety came out after the end of the earthquake motion.

Dielectric and electrostrictive properties of 0.99Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-0.01Pb(Mn2/3W1/3)O3 system using KCl-NaCl salts have been investigated as a function of the amount of excess MgO. For the specimens calcined at $700^{\circ}C$ for 1h and then sintered at 115$0^{\circ}C$ for 4h, the perovskite phase and the relative density were about 98% and 95%, respectively. With the addition of excess MgO up to 10mol%, the dielectric constant and the electrostrictive strain increased due to the increase of density and grain size, and these properties were degraded by the further addition of excess MgO. For the 10mol% excess MgO added specimen, the maximum electrostrictive strain, Xmax, and the electrostrictive coefficient, Q11, were 4.5$\times$10-4, 3.5$\times$10-2m4/C2, respectively. These results were correlated with the property of PMW and microstructure.

In this studies resistivity thermal expansion and microstructure of the Forsterite Porcelain as a high frequency insulator were investigated. The body containing Zn-glass shows higher resistivity than any other body. The bodies containing K, Ba, Cd-glass respectively consist of fine crystals of mosaic type. The bodies containing Bi, Zn, Zr-glass repectively included more large crystals because of the grain growth and coherence of fine particles In the 4 series Forsterite containing excess MgO 0-6% the thermal coefficients of the bodies increased with the increasing of excess MgO and the bodies have conspicuously high thermal expansion coefficients when 15% excess $BaCO_3$ was added to. The resistivities of additive bodies of $BaCO_3$ 0, 5, 10% in Forsterite containg excess MgO 2% are higher than any other that of composition. Bacause the growing of Forsterite crystals was restrained with the increasing of excess MgO $BaCO_3$ their grain size became fine and their grain boundaries were decomposed and also the glass phase having high refractive inder was increased. The higher the firing temperature increased the more the process of crystal growing was progressed.

Recently, many researches on the dissipation of excess pore pressure in liquefied sand grounds have been performed to evaluate post-liquefaction behavior of structures. In this research, centrifuge tests were performed to analyze liquefaction behavior of level saturated sand grounds. Based on the test results, the evaluation model of solidified layer thickness was developed to simulate non-linear variation of the thickness with time. The thickness evaluation model was combined with the solidification theory and the consolidation theory in order to simulate dissipation of excess pore pressure. The suggested dissipation model properly estimated the solidified layer thickness and the time history of excess pore pressure.

This study compared exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) and excess air strategies for improving thermal efficiency and emissions of hydrogen combustion engines at low-load operation. The experimental investigation was conducted in a single-cylinder, heavy-duty engine under throttling and wide-open throttle (WOT) conditions. Although both EGR and excess air strategies reduced peak heat release rates and increased combustion durations, the net indicated thermal efficiencies were improved by reducing the pumping losses. Under the constraint of similar nitrogen oxides emissions, the EGR strategy had higher net indicated thermal efficiencies compared to the excess air strategy in throttling operation. However, the difference between their thermal efficiencies was reduced under WOT condition. The trend of reducing nitrogen oxides emissions according to the two strategies was similar.

PMN ceramics with excess MgO addition in the range of 0 to 70m/o were prepared, and their electrical properties, such as dielectric constant, tan$\delta$, diffuseness coefficient, remanent polarization, coercive field and electrical conductivity were measured. Dielectric constant and remanent polarization increased with up to 5m/o excess MgO and then decreased presumely due to the precipitation of second phase, etc. Electrical conductivity slightly increased with the addition of excess MgO.

In this work, transient characteristics of NPT(Non Punch Through)-IGBT(Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) have been studied with different temperatures analytically. Power losses are caused by heat generated in MIT-IGBT for steady state and transient state conditions. We therefore have focused on the analysis of excess carrier concentration and excess charge injected into N-drift layer with different temperatures and have obtained anode voltage drop during turn-off with lifetime of 2.4[${\mu}$s].

In this paper, we present an economical and practical standard to install a bypass diode in a thin-film PV module. This method helps to reduce heat generation and to prevent module degradation due to excess current from reverse bias. The experimental results confirm that for different numbers of solar cells, there is a relation between the excess reverse current and the degradation of solar cells in a-Si:H modules. The optimal number of solar cells that can be connected per bypass diode could be obtained through an analysis of the results to effectively suppress the degradation and to reduce the heat generated by the module. This technique could be expanded for use in high power crystalline Si PV modules.

An excess-3 code adde $r_tracter circuit is proposed for human friendly decimal computation. Carry lookahead (CLA) circuitry can be used to enhance decimal computation speed. The proposed excess-3 adde $r_tracter employs improved CLA and compensation circuitry recoding computation delay. The circuitry used for addition is used for subtraction without further modification. Substantial speed improvement is obtained compared to conventional designs.signs.
