A new variable rate speech coding technique is proposed. The method is based on the observation that the speech signal approximately looks linear for a very short period of time. The information transmitted is the location and data value of inflection points. If the distance between the inflection points is large, the mid point location and its data value are also delivered. Thus, the encoder transmits both the location and the data value for the inflection samples, but the location only for the non-inflection points. The location information is expressed using one bit for each sample, 0 for non-inflection and 1 for inflection point. At the receiver, using the interpolation, the decoder estimates the untransmitted sample values for non-inflection locations from the received sample values for the inflection samples. With 50 % of computational cost of the existing CVSD delta modulation, the proposed method is expected to achieve the data rate of 36 to 38 kbps and the SNR of 10 to 13 dB.

The flash point is one of the most important combustible properties used to determine the potential for fire and explosion hazards of industrial material. An accurate knowledge of the flash point is important in developing appropriate preventive and control measures in industrial fire protection. The flash points for the n-butanol+n-propionic acid and n-propanol+n-propionic acid systems were measured by using Tag open-cup apparatus(ASTM D 1310-86). The experimental data were compared with the values calculated by the laws of Raoult and van Laar equation. The calculated values based on the van Laar equation were found to be better than those based on the Raoult's law.

An accurate knowledge of the flash point is important in developing appropriate preventive and control measures in industrial fire protection. The lower flash points for the 2-propanol+acetic acid and 2-propanol+-n-propionic acid systems were measured by Cleveland open cup apparatus. The experimental data were compared with the values calculated by the Raoult's law, the Wilson equation and the NRTL(non random two liquids) equation. The calculated values based on the Wilson and NRTL equations were found to be better than those based on the Raoult's law. And the predictive curve of the flash point prediction model, based on NRTL equation described the experimentally-derived data were more effective than the case of the Wilson equation.

The authors have measured and analyzed the values of Point C from roentgenocephalograms of Korean adults, 51 males and 53 females, with normal occlusion. The results were as follows. 1. The position of Point C was -4.73mm. in male and -4.74mm. in female. 2. In samples of harmonious maxillary and mandibular basal bones, the position of Point C was -4.02mm. in male, while that was -5.33mm. in female, respectively. 3. When N.F.-M.P.A. was become larger, the position of Point C was moved more upward; while M.R.P. was increased larger, it was moved more downward. 4. The position of Point C was depended on the distance form the cross point with nasal floor and mandibular plane to the points A and B.

The flash points for the systems, ethlybenzene+n-butanol and ethlybenzene+n-hexanol, were measured by using Tag open-cup tester (ASTM D1310-86). These binary mixtures exhibited MFPB (minimum flash point behavior), which leads to the minimum on the flash point vs composition curve. The experimental data were compared with the values calculated by the Raoult's law, the UNIQUAC equation and the NRTL equation. The calculated values based on the UNIQUAC and NRTL equations were found to be better than those based on the Raoult's law. It was concluded that the UNIQUAC and NRTL equations were more effective than the Raoult' law at describing the activity coefficients for nonideal solution such as the ethlybenzene+n-butanol and ethlybenzene+n-hexanol systems. And the predictive curve of the flash point prediction model based on the NRTL equation described the experimentally-derived data more effectively than was the case when the prediction model was based upon the UNIQUAC equation.

The purpose of this research is to support decision making of emergency rescue system with GIS which selects landing point of emergency rescue for emergency situation on mountains and dropping point when landing is impossible. The area of research was limited to Pocheon-si, Gyeonggi-do. The results were divided into two values; landing point of helicopter on mountains and dropping point. Digital map, forest type map and forest soil map were utilized as fundamental data. Factors of landing point were slope, topographical characteristics, vegetation characteristics and area of helicopter landing point by helicopter data. And, for dropping point, slope and vegetation characteristics were divided as factors and GIS intersect function was utilized for the analysis. But, this research was conducted by excluding factor values of wind direction, wind velocity, etc. In the future, it's necessary to improve effectiveness of the analysis more by making a connection with Meteorological Agency DB.

The problem of trend change in the mean residual life is great Interest in the reliability and survival analysis. In this paper, a new test statistic for testing whether or not the mean residual life changes its trend Is developed. It is assumed that neither the change point nor the proportion at which the trend change occurs is known. The asymptotic null distribution of test statistic is established and asymptotic critical values of the asymptotic null distribution is obtained. Monte Carlo simulation is used to compare the proposed test with previously known tests.

An electric field induced by a point dipole soruce within a conductor-backed lossy dielectric slab above the earth is calculated by anumerical method. the calcualtion is peformed on the plane which is parallel to the conductor plane and containing the point dipole soruce. Computed S$_{21}$ values of two parallel planar dipole antennas and two collinear planar dipole antennas are compared against each other, as well as the electic field magnitudes in those arrangements.

In this paper, the generalized SOR-like methods are presented for solving the saddle point problems. Based on the SOR-like methods, we introduce the uncertain parameters and the preconditioned matrixes in the splitting form of the coefficient matrix. The necessary and sufficient conditions for guaranteeing its convergence are derived by giving the restrictions imposed on the parameters. Finally, numerical experiments show that this methods are more effective by choosing the proper values of parameters.

The critical phenomena in nickel films have been studied by observing the resistivity behavior with temperatures near the Curie point. We observed the thickness dependence of the Curie point in nickel films, that is, the thinner the film is, the lower the Curie point is. This is as expected. Using the heat capacity data, we also found the amplitude ratios of bulk and film systems to be 1.222 and 1.197(average0, respectively. These values are cose to the theoretical prediction of 1.46 given by the Heisenberg, S=$\infty$ Model.
