This study evaluated the kinetics of acrylamide (AM) biodegradation by mixed culture bacteria and Enterobacter aerogenes (E. aerogenes) in sequencing batch reactor (SBR) systems with AQUASIM and linear regression. The zero-order, first-order, and Monod kinetic models were used to evaluate the kinetic parameters of both autotrophic and heterotrophic nitrifications and both AM and chemical oxygen demand (COD) removals at different AM concentrations of 100, 200, 300, and 400 mg AM/L. The results revealed that both autotrophic and heterotrophic nitrifications and both AM and COD removals followed the Monod kinetics. High AM loadings resulted in the transformation of Monod kinetics to the first-order reaction for AM and COD removals as the results of the compositions of mixed substrates and the inhibition of the free ammonia nitrogen (FAN). The kinetic parameters indicated that E. aerogenes degraded AM and COD at higher rates than mixed culture bacteria. The FAN from the AM biodegradation increased both heterotrophic and autotrophic nitrification rates at the AM concentrations of 100-300 mg AM/L. At higher AM concentrations, the FAN accumulated in the SBR system inhibited the autotrophic nitrification of mixed culture bacteria. The accumulation of intracellular polyphosphate caused the heterotrophic nitrification of E. aerogenes to follow the first-order approximation.

Prasad et al.는 사전학습(pre-trained)한 신경망 L1 글로다바(Gulordava) 언어모델을 여러 유형의 영어 관계절과 등위절 문장들로 적응 학습(adaptation learning)시켜 문장 간 유사성(sentence similarity)을 평가할 수 있는 통사 프라이밍(syntactic priming)-기반 프로빙 방법((probing method)을 제안했다. 본 논문에서는 한국인 영어학습자가 배우는 영어 자료를 바탕으로 훈련된 L2 LSTM 신경망 언어 모델의 영어 관계절 혹은 등위절 구조의 문장들에 대한 임베딩 표현 방식을 평가하기 위하여 프로빙 방법을 적용한다. 프로빙 실험은 사전 학습한 LSTM 언어 모델을 기반으로 추가로 적응 학습을 시킨 LSTM 언어 모델을 사용하여 문장 임베딩 벡터 표현의 통사적 속성을 추적한다. 이 프로빙 실험을 위한 데이터셋은 문장의 통사 구조를 생성하는 템플릿을 사용하여 자동으로 구축했다. 특히, 프로빙 과제별 문장의 통사적 속성을 분류하기 위해 통사 프라이밍을 이용한 언어 모델의 적응 효과(adaptation effect)를 측정했다. 영어 문장에 대한 언어 모델의 적응 효과와 통사적 속성 관계를 복합적으로 통계분석하기 위해 선형 혼합효과 모형(linear mixed-effects model) 분석을 수행했다. 제안한 L2 LSTM 언어 모델이 베이스라인 L1 글로다바 언어 모델과 비교했을 때, 프로빙 과제별 동일한 양상을 공유함을 확인했다. 또한 L2 LSTM 언어 모델은 다양한 관계절 혹은 등위절이 있는 문장들을 임베딩 표현할 때 관계절 혹은 등위절 세부 유형별로 통사적 속성에 따라 계층 구조로 구분하고 있음을 확인했다.

In this paper, we develop the noninformative priors for the linear mixed models when the parameter of interest is the ratio of variance components. We developed the first and second order matching priors. We reveal that the one-at-a-time reference prior satisfies the second order matching criterion. It turns out that the two group reference prior satisfies a first order matching criterion, but Jeffreys' prior is not first order matching prior. Some simulation study is performed.

This paper presents the cost optimization of a composite I beam floor system, designed to be made from a reinforced concrete slab and steel I sections. The optimization was performed by the mixed-integer non-linear programming (MINLP) approach. For this purpose, a number of different optimization models were developed that enable different design possibilities such as welded or standard steel I sections, plastic or elastic cross-section resistances, and different positions of the neutral axes. An accurate economic objective function of the self-manufacturing costs was developed and subjected to design, resistance and deflection (in)equality constraints. Dimensioning constraints were defined in accordance with Eurocode 4. The Modified Outer-Approximation/Equality-Relaxation (OA/ER) algorithm was applied together with a two-phase MINLP strategy. A numerical example of the optimization of a composite I beam floor system, as presented at the end of this paper, demonstrates the applicability of the proposed approach. The optimal result includes the minimal produced costs of the structure, the optimal concrete and steel strengths, and dimensions.

In this research, a high-elasticity acrylic emulsion binder with core-shell polymerization and self-crosslinking system is mixed with a flame-retardant water-dispersed polyurethane (PUD) binder. In addition, finite element analysis was conducted through virtual engineering software ANSYS by applying three representative nonlinear material models. The most suitable nonlinear material model was selected after the relative comparison between the actual experimental values and the predicted values of the properties derived from simulations. The selected nonlinear material model is intended to be used as a nonlinear material model for computational simulation analysis that simulates the experimental environment of the vibration test (ASTM E1399) and the actual fire safety test (ASTM E1966). When the mass fraction of thermally expandable graphite was 0.7%, the thermal and physical properties were the best. Among the nonlinear material models, the simulation result of the Ogden model showed the closest value to the actual result.

유역내의 수력 에너지자원과 수자원의 효율적 관리를 위하여 통합혼합정수계획법(combined mixed integer proguamming)을 사용한 최적 발전기 운영계획 모형을 개발하였다. 통합혼합정수계획법 모형은 기왕에 개발된 혼합정수계획법 모형에서 발생할 수 있는 모순을 해결하기 위하여 개발되었다. 또한, 조건부 제약조건과 택일 제약조건들을 선형계획법 모형에서 사용 할 수 있도록 수정하는 기법을 제안하였다. 미국 콜로라도강 하부유역에 통합혼합정수계획법을 적용한 경우를, 최적화 모형을 사용하지 않은 경우 및 혼합정수계획법을 사용한 경우와 비교한 결과, 최적화 기법을 사용하지 않은 경우보다 유역효율이 0.67% 증가하였고, 혼합정수계획법을 사용한 경우보다 유역효율이 1.53% 감소하였다. 통합혼합정수게획모형의 효율이 감소한 이유는 혼합정수계획법모형보다 전력요구량과의 허용오차를 감소시켰기 때문인 것으로 판단된다.

Objective: The aim of this study was to estimate (co) variance components and genetic parameters for categorical carcass traits using Bayesian inference via mixed linear and threshold animal models in Anglonubian goats. Methods: Data were obtained from Anglonubian goats reared in the Brazilian Mid-North region. The traits in study were body condition score, marbling in the rib eye, ribeye area, fat thickness of the sternum, hip height, leg perimeter, and body weight. The numerator relationship matrix contained information from 793 animals. The single- and two-trait analyses were performed to estimate (co) variance components and genetic parameters via linear and threshold animal models. For estimation of genetic parameters, chains with 2 and 4 million cycles were tested. An 1,000,000-cycle initial burn-in was considered with values taken every 250 cycles, in a total of 4,000 samples. Convergence was monitored by Geweke criteria and Monte Carlo error chain. Results: Threshold model best fits categorical data since it is more efficient to detect genetic variability. In two-trait analysis the contribution of the increase in information and the correlations between traits contributed to increase the estimated values for (co) variance components and heritability, in comparison to single-trait analysis. Heritability estimates for the study traits were from low to moderate magnitude. Conclusion: Direct selection of the continuous distribution of traits such as thickness sternal fat and hip height allows obtaining the indirect selection for marbling of ribeye.

Under the assumption that the temperature of one location is closely related to land use characteristics around that location, this study is carried out to assess the impact of urban land use patterns on air temperature. In order to investigate the relationship, GIS techniques and statistical analyses are utilized, after spatially connecting urban land use data in Seoul Metropolitan Area with atmospheric data observed at Automatic Weather Stations (AWS). The research method is as follows: (1) To find out important land use factors on temperature, simple linear regressions for a specific time period (pilot study) are conducted with urban land use characteristics, (2) To make a final model, multiple regressions are carried out with those factors and, (3) To verify that the final model could be appled to explain temperature variations beyond the period, the model is extensively used for 5 different time periods: 1999 as a whole; summer in 1999; 1998 as a whole; summer in 1998; August in 1998. The results of simple linear regression models in the pilot study show that transportation facilities and open space area are very influential on urban air temperature variations, which explain 66 and 61 percent of the variations, respectively. However, the other land use variables (residential, commercial, and mixed land use) are found to have weak or insignificant relationship to the air temperatures. Multiple linear regression with the two important variables in the pilot study is estimated, which shows that the model explains 75 percent of the variability in air temperatures with correct signs of regression coefficients. Thus, it is empirically shown that an increase in open space and a decrease in transportation facilities area can leads to the decrease in air temperature. After the final model is extensively applied to the 5 different time periods, the estimated models explain 68 ∼ 75 percent of the variations in the temperatures is significant regression coefficients for all explanatory variables. This result provides a possibility that one air temperature model for a specific time period could be a good model for other time periods near to the period. The important implications of this result to lessen high air temperature we: (1) to expand and to conserve open space and (2) to control transportation-related factors such as transportation facilities area, road pavement and traffic congestion.

A mixed model assembly line (MMAL) is a special type of production line where a variety of product models similar in product characteristics are assembled. Determining the model sequence is an important problem for the efficient use of MMALs. This paper considers interactive multiobjective decision making problems for MMAL sequencing. Evolution program is employed as an underlying framework. In this study, a way of approximating the linear utility function is first studied. To improve its search efficiency to the solution space preferred by a decision maker, some modifications of a standard evolution program are made: operating several subpopulations instead of a single population and merging two or more subpopulations to a single subpopulation, and using a Pareto pool. Extensive computational experiments are carried out to verify the performance of the proposed approach. The computational results show that our approach is promising in solution quality.
