In this study, adaptation of two-way shape memory effect of SMA wire to the actuator is examined . Therefore the SMA characteristics which are training, material properties, response time at different thermal cycling rates are tested. During training, permanent deformation is accumulated till a certain number of cycle and then saturated. The amow1t of two-way strain is unchangeable over all cycle and the slope of strain(or stress)-temperature curve is slower as the increase of applied stress. The rate effect is observed resulted from the thermal distribution which heating profile differs from cooling as thermal cycling time. Using the estimated SMA properties, an experimental test for the simple smart wing is performed.

In this study, the recognition experiments for Korean vowel are performed using peripheral auditory model. In addition, for the purpose of objective comparison, the recognition experiments are performed by extracting LPC cepstrum coefficients for the same speech data. The results are as follows. 1) The time and the frequency responses of the auditory model show that important features of input signal are involved in the responses of inner ear and auditory nerve. 2) The recognition results for Korean vowel show that the recognition rate by auditory model output is higher than the recognition rate by LPC cepstrum coefficients. 3) The adaptation phenomenon of auditory nerve provides useful characteristics for the discrimination of vowel signal.

The kinetics of sulfite oxidation must be fast and the concentration of sulfite must be low to emulate oxygen uptake by blood. The kinetics were studied yielding a first order rate constant in sulfile, zero order in oxygen. Limitations of the technique were evaluated using the experimental rate constant and an adaptation of Lightfoot's approximation, while the reaction of hemoglobin is reversible and essentially instantaneous, that for sulfite is irreversible and finite. Thus if the approach to saturations not monotonic or if the mass transfer resistance is significantly lowered, e. g. when blood film thicknesses are thinner than a few hundred microns, deviations may occur.

As a special type of mobile ad-hoc network, Vehicular Ad-hoc Network (VANET) is considered as an attractive topic by many researchers. In VANETs, vehicles act as routers and clients, which are connected with each other through unreliable wireless links. Due to the dynamic nature of vehicles, developing communication protocols for VANETs is a challenging task. In this paper, we tackle the problem of real-world VANET operations and propose a new dual-level communication scheme through the combination of power and rate control algorithms. Based on the game theoretic approach, the proposed scheme effectively formulates the interactive situation among several vehicles. With a simulation study, it is confirmed that the proposed scheme can achieve better performance than other existing schemes under widely diverse VANET environments.

A water management system is developed to reduce the unit cost of production in wide-area waterworks. Improving productivity in waterworks is to save power rate. We suggest a method to schedule the supply of water according to the time-varying power rate and pump control scheme. Water pipeline analysis package (SynerGEE Water) is utilized to obtain optimal pump control solution adaptation to water demand. Our evaluation results show that developed scheme is more efficient than the conventional.

This paper describes the implementation of an autonomous fuzzy logic controller. The controller is endowed with basic control principles and learning constructs which enable it to autonomously modify its control policy based on system performance. The controller lies dormant when system response is satisfactory but if rapidly initiates adaptation in real time when adverse performance is observed. The autonomous fuzzy controller is implemented on an Intel MCS-51 series micro-controller board using an inexpensive 8-bit Intel 8031 processor. The 11.06 MHz micro-controller operates at a rate exceeding 200 "global" look-up table reinforcements per second. This is important when developing practical on-line adaptive controllers for fast systems. It is also significant because an initial controller look-up table could be incorrect or non-existent. The relatively high learning rate enables the controller to learn to control a system even while it is controlling it.

Objective : This study was performed to investigate the effect of Astragali Radix on leukocytopenia anaphysis with carcinostatic substance elicitation. Methods : We observe if there were differences in a general tendency by EAR (AR extracts) capacity in the Astragali Radix treated group and the cyclophosphamide treated group, a general tendency of recovery from leukocytopenia over lime and checked for liver and kidney toxicity. Results : In cyclophosphamide treated with EAR 1000mg/kg group, the recovery rate of leukocytopenia increased and there were no differences in liver and kidney functions. Conclusions : Astragali Radix was effective and safe in increasing rate of leukocytopenia anaphysis with carcinostatic substance elicitation and indicated possibility for clinically adaptation.

This paper presents the Korean digit recognition method under noise environment using the spectral mapping training based on static supervised adaptation algorithm. In the presented recognition method, as a result of spectral mapping from one space of noisy speech spectrum to another space of speech spectrum without noise, spectral distortion of noisy speech is improved, and the recognition rate is higher than that of the conventional method using VQ and DTW without noise processing, and even when SNR level is 0 dB, the recognition rate is 10 times of that using the conventional method. It has been confirmed that the spectral mapping training has an ability to improve the recognition performance for speech in noise environment.

Spatial modulation (SM) is the first proposed space modulation technique. By further utilizing the quadrature spatial dimension, quadrature spatial modulation (QSM) has been developed as an amendment to SM system to enhance the overall spectral efficiency. Both techniques are capable of entirely eliminating interchannel interference (ICI) at the receiver. In this paper, we propose a simple adaptive hybrid switching transmission scheme to obtain better system performance than SM and QSM systems under a fixed transmission date rate. The presented modulator selection criterion for switching between spatial modulator and quadrature spatial modulator is based on the larger received minimum distance of spatial modulator and quadrature spatial modulator to exploit the spatial channel freedom. It is shown through Monte Carlo simulations that the proposed hybrid SM and QSM switching system yields lower error performance than the conventional SM and QSM systems under the same fixed data rate and thus can provide signal to noise ratio (SNR) gain.

Adaptation of Anisopteromalus calandrae maintained on rice weevil (Sitophilus oryzae) to an alternative host, adzuki bean weevil (Callosobruchus chinensis) was studied. A. calandrae required two generations to adapt to the adzuki been weevil. Through the adaptation, the mean($\pm$SEM) life span of th females became shorter $8.7\pm$1.3 days at the first generation to $6.9\pm$0.6 days at the second generation. Number of eggs laid per female increased from 29.3$\pm$7.7 to $68.2\pm$6.5. Consequently intrinsic rate of natural increase and net reproductive rate were increased. The generation time and population doubling time were decreased. The searching efficiency based on functional and numerical response of A. calandrae to the adzuki bean weevil were similar to each other, but the coefficient of variation decreased with the generation, suggesting that searching efficiency became stable when the parasitoid adapted to adzuki bean weevil. No time lag was required for A. calandrae adapted to the adzuki bean weevil to adapt again to th rice weevil and the searching efficiency of the parasitoid remained on a similar level for the first generation on.
