The CN radical was generated in a jet with an inert buffer gas, helium from high voltage dc discharge of the precursor $CH_3CN$. The Fourier transform emission spectra of the O-O band of the $(B^2{\Sigma}^+{\to}X^2{\Sigma}^+)$ transition of CN have been obtained with a Bruker IFS-120HR spectrometer. The spectra show an anomalous distribution of rotational intensity which cannot be explained by a simple Boltzmann distribution. The analysis of the transition frequencies provides molecular constants with high accuracy for both the ground and the excited electronic states of the CN radical.

The effect of high pressure on the stability of copper(II), cadmium(II) and zinc (II) complex ions with ethylenediamine, propylenediamine, diethylenetriamine has been investigated polarographically. 0.10M KN$O_3$ solution was used as a supporting electrolyte. The concentration of chelating agents was varied from 0.01M to 1.00M. The dissociation constants of metal complex ions were increased with increasing the pressure from 1 atmosphere to 1,500 atmospheres. The increment of the dissociation constant per unit atmosphere varied from 1.1 ${\times} 10^{-3}$% for Cu(dien)$_2^{2+}$ to 5.0 ${\times} 10^{-3}$ % for Zn(en)$_2^{2+}$.

A comparative study on the treatment of the turbulent heat flux with the elliptic blending second-moment closure for a natural convection flow is performed. Three cases of different treating the turbulent heat flux are considered. Those are the generalized gradient diffusion hypothesis (GGDH), the algebraic flux model (AFM) and the differential flux model (DFM). The constants in the models are adjusted with a primary emphasis placed on the accuracy of predicting the local Nusselt number. These models are implemented in a computer code specially designed for evaluation of turbulent models. Calculations are performed for a turbulent natural convection in the 1:5 rectangular cavity and the calculated results are compared with the available experimental data. The results show that the three models produce nearly the same accuracy of solutions. These results show that the GGDH, AFM and DFM models for treating the turbulent heat flux are sufficient for this simple shear flow where the shear production is dominant. It is observed that, in the weakly stratified region at the center zone of the cavity, the vertical velocity fluctuation is nearly zero in the GGDH solutions, which shows that the GGDH model may not be suitable for the strongly stratified flow. Thus, further study on the strongly stratified flow should be followed.

Multi-span beams carrying multiple point masses are widely used in engineering applications, but the literature for free vibration analysis of such structural systems is much less than that of single-span beams. The complexity of analytical expressions should be one of the main reasons for the last phenomenon. The purpose of this paper is to utilize the numerical assembly method (NAM) to determine the exact natural frequencies and mode shapes of a multi-span uniform beam carrying multiple point masses. First, the coefficient matrices for an intermediate pinned support, an intermediate point mass, left-end support and right-end support of a uniform beam are derived. Next, the overall coefficient matrix for the whole structural system is obtained using the numerical assembly technique of the finite element method. Finally, the natural frequencies and the associated mode shapes of the vibrating system are determined by equating the determinant of the last overall coefficient matrix to zero and substituting the corresponding values of integration constants into the related eigenfunctions respectively. The effects of in-span pinned supports and point masses on the free vibration characteristics of the beam are also studied.

Transcription factors are proteins that bind specific sites or elements in regulatory regions of DNA, known as promoters or enhancers, where they control the transcription or expression of target genes. MEIS1 protein is a DNA-binding domain present in human transcription factors and plays important roles in various biological functions. The hydrogen exchange rate constants of the imino protons were determined for the wild-type containing the consensus DNA-binding site for the MEIS1 and those of the mutant DNA duplexes using NMR spectroscopy. The G2A-, A3G- and C4T-mutant DNA duplexes lead to clear changes in thermal stabilities of these four consensus base pairs. These unique dynamic features of the four base pairs in the consensus 5'-TGAC-3' sequence might play crucial roles in the effective DNA binding of the MEIS1 protein.

Fracture behavior of brittle solids such as rocks, ceramics and concrete is closely related to microcracking. A meso-scale analysis method using the natural element method is proposed for the analysis of material damage of brittle microcracking solids. The microcracking is assumed to occur along Voronoi edges in the Voronoi diagram generated using the nodal points as the generators. The mechanical effect of microcracks is considered by controlling the material constants in the neighborhood of the microcracks. The proposed meso analysis method is applied to the simulation of the microcracking behaviors of brittle solids subjected to uniaxial and biaxial macrostress. The obtained results are in good agreement with the results by computational damage mechanics model. The validity of the proposed method has been demonstrated by these numerical examples.

A meso-scale analysis method using the natural element method, which is a kind of meshless method, is proposed for the analysis of material damage of brittle microcracking solids such as ceramic materials, concrete and rocks. The microcracking is assumed to occur along Voronoi edges in the Voronoi diagram generated using the nodal points as the generators. The mechanical effect of microcracks is considered by controlling the material constants in the neighborhood of the microcracks. The macro elastic moduli of anisotropic as well as isotropic solids containing a number of randomly distributed microcracks are calculated in order to demonstrate the validity of the proposed method.

The vibration behavior of fuel rods has been analyzed by FEM in consideration of axial force and support spring constants. The axial compression force on the fuel rod in reactor decreases with the fuel rod burnup, and its decrease makes the natural frequencies of fuel rod considerably increase. The change of support spring constant can contribute to the remarkable change of the mode shapes, but not greatly to the natural frequencies. The reaction forces of support springs are obtained from normalizing the lst mode with the max. 0.2 mm displacement. The calculated reaction forces are larger than the previous results obtained by disregarding the deflections of the support springs.

Intensive chemical investigation of Korean marine sponge Spongia sp. has led to the isolation of two new scalaranes. The planar structures of the new compounds 1 and 2 were determined through 1D and 2D NMR spectral data analysis, while the relative stereochemistry of the compounds was determined based on the analysis of $^1H-^1H$ coupling constants and NOESY spectroscopic data. Compounds 1 and 2 did not display any significant biological activities on farnesoid X-activated receptor (FXR) in co-transfection assay.

Let {X,$X_n$,n$\geq$1} be i.i.d. random variables with mean zero and {$a_ni$, 1$\leq$i$\leq$n,n$\geq$1} a triangular array of constants. In this paper we give sufficient conditions on X and {$a_ni$} such that $sum_{i=1}^n$$a_{ni}$$X_i$ converges to zero almostly surely.
