Ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) are an unusual galaxy population. They are ghostlike galaxies with fainter surface brightness than normal dwarf galaxies, but they are as large as MW-like galaxies. The key question on UDGs is whether they are 'failed' giant galaxies or 'extended' dwarf galaxies. To answer this question, we study UDGs in massive galaxy clusters. We find an amount of UDGs in deep HST images of three Hubble Frontier Fields clusters, Abell 2744 (z=0.308), Abell S1063 (z=0.347), and Abell 370 (z=0.374). These clusters are the farthest and most massive galaxy clusters in which UDGs have been discovered until now. The color-magnitude relations show that most UDGs have old stellar population with red colors, while a few of them show bluer colors implying the existence of young stars. The stellar masses of UDGs show that they have less massive stellar components than the bright red sequence galaxies. The radial number density profiles of UDGs exhibit a drop in the central region of clusters, suggesting some of them were disrupted by strong gravitational potential. Their spatial distributions are not homogeneous, which implies UDGs are not virialized enough in the clusters. With virial masses of UDGs estimated from the fundamental manifold, most UDGs have M_200 = 10^10 - 10^11 M_Sun indicating that they are dwarf galaxies. However, a few of UDGs more massive than 10^11 M_Sun indicate that they are close to failed giant galaxies.

Various management systems are being broadly employed to minimize crop yield loss resulting from abiotic and biotic stresses. Here we introduce a Bacillus zanthoxyli HS1 strain as a potent candidate for managing manifold stresses on vegetable plants. Considering 16S rDNA sequence and biochemical characteristics, the strain is closely related to B. zanthoxyli. The B. zanthoxyli HS1's soil-drench confers disease resistance on tomato and paprika plants against infection with Ralstonia solanacearum and Phytophthora capsici, respectively. Root and shoot growths are also increased in B. zanthoxyli HS1-treated cabbage, cucumber, and tomato plants, compared with those in mock-treated plants, after application of high salinity solution. Moreover, the pretreatment of B. zanthoxyli HS1 on cabbage plants inhibits the degradation of chloroplast pigments caused by high salinity stresses, whereas the inhibitory effect is not observed in cucumber plants. These findings suggest that B. zanthoxyli HS1 stain inhibits disease development and confers tolerance to salinity stress on vegetable plants.

Hydrogen gas fuel was applied to a small-sized two stroke engine for a mobile power source instead of gasoline fuel. Port fuel supply showed a limitation in terms of power due to the back fire at the engine intake manifold. So in this study, hydrogen direct injection system was applied to overcome this drawback by using a low pressure direct gas injector. The result from this strategy showed that hydrogen direct injection improved fuel efficiency as well as torque and power comparing to the port fuel supply system.

When a recess is applied to a swirl coaxial injector that uses liquid and gas propellants, a self-pulsation phenomenon in which the spray oscillates at regular intervals may occur. The phenomenon is caused by the interaction between the liquid and gas propellants inside the injector recess region. The propellants' kinetic energies are expected to affect significantly the spray oscillation. Therefore, cold-flow tests using helium as a gas-simulating propellant were conducted and compared with the results of the previous study using air. Dynamic pressure was measured in the injector manifold and frequency characteristics were investigated through the fast Fourier transform analysis. In the experimental environment, the helium density was about seven times lower than the air density. Accordingly, the intensity of pressure fluctuations was confirmed to be greater when air was used. At the same kinetic energy condition, the perturbation frequency was almost identical in the low flow rate conditions. However, as the flow rate increased, the self-pulsation frequency was higher when helium was used.

In this study, the flow uniformity was analyzed by performing numerical analysis on the 1 kWe internal manifold type solid oxide fuel cell stack according to the channel height of the separator. Also, it was examined by varying the fuel utilization rate and oxygen utilization rate. From the calculation results, we found that as the channel height of the separator decreased, the pressure drop increased exponentially. In addition, it was found that as the channel height of the separator decreased, the gas flow resistance inside the unit cell increased, and the flow resistance increased the pressure drop, thereby improving the flow uniformity inside the stack. Finally, the calculation results showed that as the fuel and oxygen utilization increased, the flow uniformity also improved.

This paper investigates several methods of visualizing high-dimensional data in a low-dimensional space. At first, principal component analysis and multidimensional scaling are briefly introduced as linear approaches, and then kernel principal component analysis, self-organizing map, locally linear embedding, Isomap, Laplacian Eigenmaps, and local multidimensional scaling are introduced as nonlinear approaches. In particular, t-SNE, which is widely used but relatively unfamiliar in the field of statistics, is described in more detail. We also present a simple example for several methods, including t-SNE. Finally, we provide a review of several recent studies pointing out the limitations of t-SNE and discuss the future research problems presented.

This study was carried out to develop a continuously variable-speed transmission(CVT) for agricultural tractor. A full-toroidal CVT mechanism with four discs and six rollers was selected as a device for changing speed ratio continuously. In the step of system layout design, the sizes of roller cylinders and end-load cylinder, which were critical factors for controlling the variator, were designed. Also the control pressure range was designed to limit the contact pressure of variator. In order to make the maximum speed of vehicle as 30km/h, the planetary gear and the six pairs of gears were designed. Also the hydraulic clutch, silent chain, hydraulic manifold and electronic controller were designed. After the design, a prototype with CVT controller was developed and tested. The speed of vehicle was changed continuously to the speed set by driver and the settling time was about 0.52 second at the step-response test (reduction ratio of variator 2.0 to 1.0), which was acceptable as a response time for working with tractor.

This study performed the numerical analysis of the internal flow phenomena of 1 kWe-class solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) stacks with internal manifold type and planar cells using commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software, Star-CCM+. In particular, the locations where the turbulent phenomena occur inside the SOFC stack were investigated. In addition, the laminar flow model and the standard k-ε turbulent model were used to calculate the SOFC stack, separately. And, the calculation results of both laminar and turbulent models were compared. The calculation results showed that turbulent phenomena occurred mainly in the cathode flow. Especially, the turbulent phenomena were found in the cathode inlet/outlet region, and local turbulence occurred in the end plate near the inlet pipe.

In this paper, we introduce a second order linear differential operator ^T□: C^∞ (M) → C^∞ (M) as a natural generalization of Cheng-Yau operator, [8], where T is a (1, 1)-tensor on Riemannian manifold (M, h), and then we show on compact Riemannian manifolds, divT = divT^t, and if divT = 0, and f be a smooth function on M, the condition ^T□ f = 0 implies that f is constant. Hereafter, we introduce T-energy functionals and by deriving variations of these functionals, we define T-harmonic maps between Riemannian manifolds, which is a generalization of L_k-harmonic maps introduced in [3]. Also we have studied fT-harmonic maps for conformal immersions and as application of it, we consider fL_k-harmonic hypersurfaces in space forms, and after that we classify complete fL₁-harmonic surfaces, some fL_k-harmonic isoparametric hypersurfaces, fL_k-harmonic weakly convex hypersurfaces, and we show that there exists no compact fL_k-harmonic hypersurface either in the Euclidean space or in the hyperbolic space or in the Euclidean hemisphere. As well, some properties and examples of these definitions are given.

근래의 자연어처리 분야에서는 잘 만들어진 도구(Library)를 이용하여 생산성 높은 개발과 연구가 활발하게 이뤄지고 있다. 이 중에 대다수는 깊은 학습(Deep-Learning, 딥러닝) 기반인데, 이런 모델들은 학습 속도가 느리고, 비용이 비싸고, 사용(Run-Time) 속도도 느리다. 이뿐만 아니라 라벨(Label)의 가짓수가 굉장히 많거나, 라벨의 구성이 단어마다 달라질 수 있는 의미분별(동형이의어, 다의어 번호 태깅) 분야에서 딥러닝은 굉장히 비효율적인 문제가 있다. 이런 문제들은 오히려 기존의 얕은 학습(Shallow-Learning)기반 모델에서는 없던 것들이지만, 최근의 연구경향에서 딥러닝 비중이 급격히 증가하면서, 멀티스레딩 같은 고급 기능들을 지원하는 얕은 학습 기반 언어모델이 새로이 개발되지 않고 있었다. 본 논문에서는 학습과 태깅 모두에서 멀티스레딩을 지원하고, 딥러닝에서 연구된 드롭아웃 기법이 구현된 자연어처리 도구인 혼합 자질 가변 표지기 ManiFL(Manifold Feature Labelling : ManiFL)을 소개한다. 본 논문은 실험을 통해서 ManiFL로 다의어태깅이 가능함을 보여주고, 딥러닝과 CRFsuite에서 높은 성능을 보여주는 개체명 인식에서도 비교할만한 성능이 나옴을 보였다.
