Spectrophotometry of the night sky over Mount Bohyun is presented for the nearly entire visible wavelengths of $3600{\~}$8600{\AA}$. The data was obtained under moonless clear sky in February 2004 with the 1.8-m telescope and the long slit spectrograph. The sky spectrum shows a number of strong emission lines originated from light pollution, especially due to high pressure sodium lamps. When compared to the night sky of Kitt Peak, our sky continuum is 1 to 2 magnitude brighter at all wavelengths, the worst being around the broad emission region near 6000${\AA}$. The night sky spectrum presented here with almost complete line identifications is a useful reference for arc-independent wavelength calibrations to check the gravity flexure of the spectrograph and the wavelength shift between FeNeArHe arc frames and science frames.

In the steel production line, the molten metal of a furnace is transformed into billet and then moves to the heating furnace of the hot rolling mill. This paper describes about the realtime billet characters recognition system in the steel production line. Normally, the billets are mixed at yard so that their identifications are very difficult and very important processing. The character recognition algorithm used in this paper is base on the subspace method by K-L transformation. With this method, we need no special feature extraction steps, which are usually error prone. So the gray character images are directly used as input vectors of the classifier. To train the classifier, we have extracted eigen vectors of each character used in the billet numbers, which consists of 10 arabia numbers and 26 alphabet aharacters, which are gathered from billet images of the production line. We have developed billet characters recognition system using this algorithm and tested this system in the steel production line during the 8-days. The recognition rate of our system in the field test has turned out to be 94.1% (98.6% if the corrupted characters are excluded). In the results, we confirmed that our recognition system has a good performance in the poor environments and ill-conditioned marking system like as steel production plant.

In this paper, LMI (Linear Matrix Inequality) based on H$\_$$\infty$/ controller for a lire of sight (LOS) stabilization system. It shows that the proposed controller has more excellent stabilization performance than that of the conventional PI-Lead controller. An H$\_$$\infty$/ control has been also applied to the system for reducing modeling errors and the settling time of the system. The LMI-based H$\_$$\infty$/ controller design is more practical in view of reducing a run-time than Riccati-based H$\_$$\infty$/ controller. This H$\_$$\infty$/ controller is available not only to decrease the gain in PI-Lead control, but also to compensate the identifications for the various uncertain parameters. Therefore, this paper, shows that the proposed LMI-based H$\_$$\infty$/ controller had good disturbance attenuation and reference input tracking performance compared with the control performance of the conventional controller under any real disturbances.

The IUE low dispersion spectra of AZ Cas have been analyzed for line identifications and energy distribution in ultraviolet region. Highly ionized atoms, SiIV and CIV are identified. We could infer a temperature range of the B star between 15,000K and 20,000K. The energy density distribution shows a hump between IUE short wavelength and long wavelength regions. Photometric and spectroscopic elements were revised based on the Florkowisk photeelectric observations and collected radial velocities. The temperature of both stars were reduced as 16,000K and 3,800K. The radii of both stars are $10 R_{\odot}\;and\;320R_{\odot}$. The eccentricity and longitude of periastron are 0.61 and $10.5^{\circ}$, respectively.

Bracing structures with off-centre bracing system is one of the new resistant systems that frequently used in the frame with pin connections. High ductility, high-energy dissipation and decrease of base shear are advantages of this bracing system. However, beside these advantages, reconstruction and hard repair of off-centre bracing system cause inappropriate performance in the earthquake. Therefore, in this paper, the goal is investigating the behavior of this type of bracing system with ductile element (circular dissipater), in order to providing replacement of damaged member without needing repair or reconstruction of the general system. To achieve this purpose, some numerical studies have been performed using ANSYS software, a frame with off-centre bracing system and optimum eccentricity (OBS-C-O) and another frame with the same identifications without ductile element (OBS) has been created. In order to investigate precisely on the optimum placement of circular elements under monotonic load again three steal frames were modeled. Furthermore, the behavior of this general system investigated for the first time, linear and nonlinear behavior of these two steel frames compared to each other, to achieve the benefit of using the circular element in an off-centre bracing system. Eventually, the analytical results revealed that the performance of steel ring at the end of off-centre braces system illustrating as a first defensive line and buckling fuse in the off-centre bracing system.

Consumer expectations for ethical businesses have become increasingly high in recent years; the fashion industry is working to implement greater corporate social responsibility (CSR). This study establishes the effects of the evaluation for participation in fashion brand CSR on perceived purchase values. In particular, the process for the evaluation for participation that affect the perceived purchase value through consumer-brand identifications (personal/social) was verified and how the consumer regulatory focuses would influence this process was identified. For this study, an on-line survey was conducted that included a series of filtering questions that measured the level of social concern of respondents. Valid data from 505 female consumers were analyzed for the structure equation modeling. The empirical results suggested that the evaluation for participation in fashion brand CSR positively affected the two dimensions of consumer-brand identification; personal identification and social identification. In addition, consumer-brand identification played a role as a mediating variable in the path to influence the perceived purchase values of CSR brands. Lastly, there were differences in reactions to CSR activities by consumer groups with different regulatory focuses. The effect of the evaluation for participation in fashion brand CSR was shown to be higher for consumers with promotion focuses than on consumers with prevention focuses. The results of this study will help fashion companies understand the importance of the consumer participation in CSR by having consumers participate in ethical consumption.

Background: Ecological research often requires monitoring of a specific individual over an extended period of time. To enable non-invasive re-identification, consistent external marking is required. Treefrogs possess lateral lines for crypticity. While these patterns decrease predator detection, they also are individual specific patterns. In this study, we tested the use of lateral lines in captive and wild populations of Dryophytes japonicus as natural markers for individual identification. For the purpose of the study, the results of visual and software assisted identifications were compared. Results: In normalized laboratory conditions, a visual individual identification method resulted in a 0.00 rate of false-negative identification (RFNI) and a 0.0068 rate of false-positive identification (RFPI), whereas Wild-ID resulted in RFNI = 0.25 and RFNI = 0.00. In the wild, female and male data sets were tested. For both data sets, visual identification resulted in RFNI and RFPI of 0.00, whereas the RFNI was 1.0 and RFPI was 0.00 with Wild-ID. Wild-ID did not perform as well as visual identification methods and had low scores for matching photographs. The matching scores were significantly correlated with the continuity of the type of camera used in the field. Conclusions: We provide clear methodological guidelines for photographic identification of D. japonicus using their lateral lines. We also recommend the use of Wild-ID as a supplemental tool rather the principal identification method when analyzing large datasets.

Control microbial contamination in pathogens to soy sprouts has always been highly concerned in soybean sprout industries because the soybean sprouts are consumed largely as a nutritious fresh vegetable around the world. However, pathogens in soy sprouts are little known. Here, we isolated a strain of Pseudomonas sp. SN239 that caused severer symptoms in sprouts of many soybean cultivars. In phylogenetic relationships using 16S ribosomal RNA sequences of the Pseudomonas species, the identified Pseudomonas sp. SN239 was grouped with P. putita, P. plecoglossicida, P. monteilii and P. mevalonii. Thus, the bacterial strain SN239 might be a newly identified Pseudomonas species which closely related to P. putida. Furthermore, we found that a Korean indigenous soybean (Glycine max) cultivar YNPCSS3-19 has strong resistance against the Pseudomonas sp. SN239.
