Recent high-resolution infrared space missions have revealed supernova remnants (SNRs) of diverse morphology in far infrared (FIR), often very different from their X-ray appearance. This suggests that the FIR emission from SNRs could be of different origins. For a sample of 20 Galactic SNRs, we examine the correlation between their FIR and X-ray properties and explore the origin of the FIR emission. We find that the SNRs with very different FIR and X-ray morphology have relatively large infrared-to-X-ray (IRX) flux ratios. We argue that the FIR emission in these SNRs is likely mainly from dust grains radiatively-heated by shock radiation. For SNRs with similar IR and X-ray morphology, the FIR emission of which is probably mostly from dust grains collisionally heated by hot plasma, we compare their IRX flux ratios with theoretical ratios from a model incorporating time-dependent dust destruction and non-equilibrium ionization cooling behind SNR shock, and discuss the implications of our result.

Clean stockers are being used by semiconductor and TFT-LCD manufacturers to store and buffer work in process. The only way to keep the stored product clean is to provide constant clean airflow the product and through stocker. Up to now, stockers typically have been configured to receive their laminar airflow from fan filter units that are located on the side of the stocker. This type of stocker may have such problems as complexity of structure, increment of temperature, mechanical vibration, initial investment and running cost. In this study, in order to solve the above mentioned problems, new air control system in stocker is proposed, which is to control open ratios of exits that are located on the side of the stocker without fan filter units. In this study, static pressure regain was used for the analysis of the open ratios of exits theoretically and experiment was also conducted using actual clean stocker for TFT-LCD manufacturers and CFDesign, was used for simulating airflow in stocker. As a result, open ratios of exits can be obtained by the analysis of static pressure regain and was verified by experiment and simulation results. Therefore, new air control system in stocker can be used by the semiconductor and TFT-LCD manufacturers.

The problems associated with noise/energy source identification using multiple input/single output model in linear systems are investigated. Partial coherence function is formulated for the model introducing a virtual force and extraneous noises into the conventional two input/single output system. The analytical results show that the partial coherence function in two input/single output linear system is the function of noise/signal ratios when multiple inputs are mutually coherent and extraneous noises exist. Parametric studies for ordinary and partial coherence functions are carried out to demonstrate the effects of noise/signal ratios for these functions.

In this paper, film thickness and temperature distribution are measured in EHL point contact at high roll/slip ratios. Infrared temperature mapping with two band pass filters, proposed by Ausherman (1976), is used to measure temperature distribution. And the optical interferometric method with two filters (red and green filters) is used to measure film thickness. Result of experiment showed that temperature rising at film and ball surface occurred very dramatically in Dimple zone. As slip velocity, roll/slip ratio and load increased, size of Dimple and temperature rising became more large. In addition, position and shape of Dimple were changed by roll/slip ratios, and increasing of Dimple size decreased traction coefficient. In short, it is appointed that the Dimple phenomenon be developed by the effect of viscosity wedge.

Benthic macroinvertebrates were seasonally sampled from upstream and downstream of the Gunwi Dam construction site from 2006 to 2012. Totally 148 and 165 species were collected at the upstream and downstream sampling sites, respectively. At the upstream area after dam construction, there was no significant change of the numbers of non-insect taxa, but at the downstream area, the non-insect taxon numbers were increased gradually. The individual ratio of Ephemeroptera and Diptera had higher value than the other taxa in both of up and downstream. The trichopteran individual ratios were increased in upstream sites, but decreased in downstream sites from 2010. Also, non-insects and coleopteran individual ratios were decreased in upstream, but increased in downstream after completion of dam construction. The annual range of fluctuation in community indices narrowed after construction. According to a functional feeding group analysis, the individual ratios of FC (Filtering Collector) were increased, and GC (Gathering Collector) and SC (Scraper) were decreased in upstream sites annually. In contrast, the annual individual ratios of FC were decreased, and GC and SC were increased in the downstream sites.

The comparison between $CO_2$ volume mixing ratios observed by GOSAT and TCCON from September 2009 through November 2012 was performed at Tsukuba and Saga, two downwind sites in East Asia. The temporal trends of $CO_2$ values obtained from GOSAT show good agreement with those observed by TCCON at these two by the TCCON, showing a coefficient of determination ($R^2$) of 0.65. The regression slop we obtained was 0.92, showing a small bias of GOSAT $CO_2$ values compared to those observed by TCCON. However, we found the higher correlation in fall and winter than that in spring and summer. The $CO_2$ volume mixing ratios observ sites. The $CO_2$ volume mixing ratios observed by GOSAT are also in good agreement with those measured ed by GOSAT are in good agreement with those measured by the TCCON at those two sites in fall and winter, showing a coefficient of determination ($R^2$) of 0.66 where as the correlation of determination obtained between GOSAT and TCCON was only 0.27 in spring and summer.

This paper dealt with the local buckling of H-beams investigated mainly using the parameters of load ratios. load conditions, and support boundary condition considering predicted uniformly elevated temperatures. The physical properties of the material at elevated temperatures followed EC3 Park 1.2. The local buckling of the plates in steel beams show that they are governed by the yield stress or the critical stress of the steel plates according to the ratios of b/tf, d/tw. The evaluation of uniformly heated steel beams on the local buckling considered the stress and moment ratios to the LRFD.

The aim of this study was to investigate whether genetic polymorphisms of CYP2E1, GSTM1, and GSTT1 and lifestyle habits (smoking, drinking, and exercise) modulate the levels of urinary styrene metabolites such as mandelic acid (MA) and phenylglyoxylic acid (PGA) after occupational exposure to styrene. We recruited 79 male workers who had received chronic exposure in styrene fiberglass-reinforced plastic manufacturing factories. We found that serum albumin was significantly correlated with blood styrene/ambient styrene (BS/AS), urinary styrene (US)/AS, and US/BS ratios as well as urinary metabolites, that total protein correlated with US/MA and US/PGA ratios, and that low density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol significantly correlated with US/BS, US/MA, and US/PGA ratios. Multiple logistic regression analyses using styrene-metabolizing enzyme genotypes and lifestyle habits as dependent variables and blood and urine styrene concentrations and urine styrene metabolite levels as independent variables revealed that $CYP2E1^*5$ was associated with the MA/US ratio and GSTM1 with US/BS, that a smoking habit was associated with US/AS and MA/US ratios and MA and PGA levels, and that regular exercise was correlated with PGA/US. In conclusion, the results suggested that genetic polymorphisms of styrene-metabolizing enzymes, lifestyle behaviors, and albumin and LDL-cholesterol serving as homeostasis factors together are involved in styrene metabolism.

Thirty populations of Chondrus crispus Stackhouse from Nova Scotia were collected during the years 1993 to 2011. Taken from estuaries, wave exposed open coasts, high intertidal rock pools and shallow subtidal habitats, the populations were evaluated for relative abundance of tetrasporophytic and gametophytic life history phases. Over 2,800 thalli were characterized using the resorcinol-acetal test to distinguish the kappa- and lambda-carrageenan containing fronds of gametophytes and tetrasporophytes, respectively. These populations had $77{\pm}5%$ gametophytes (mean ${\pm}95%$ confidence interval), with most populations having gametophyte : sporophyte ratios ranging from 2 : 1 to 9 : 1. No population had a dominance of tetrasporophytes, although two populations had 1 : 1 ratios. A meta-analysis of our data along with previously published accounts showed no significant changes in gametophyte dominance with respect to hypothesized gradients of wave exposure, salinity, or water depth. Significant changes occurred in ratios at five sites where replicate sampling occurred in different years. We conclude that C. crispus in Maritime Canada has a natural ratio of 3 : 1 or greater in stable conditions, and that lower ratios represent recovery from disturbance in which bare substratum is created that is subsequently colonized by carpospores from remaining gametophytic thalli.

To investigate the critical buckling load and post-buckling behavior of an axially loaded pile entirely embedded in soil, the non-linear large deflection differential equation for a pinned pile, based on the Winkler-model and the discretionary distribution function of the foundation coefficient along pile shaft, was established by energy method. Assuming that the deflection function was a power series of some perturbation parameter according to the boundary condition and load in the pile, the non-linear large deflection differential equation was transformed to a series of linear differential equations by using perturbation approach. By taking the perturbation parameter at middle deflection, the higher-order asymptotic solution of load-deflection was then found. Effect of ratios of soil depth to pile length, and ratios of pile stiffness to soil stiffness on the critical buckling load and performance of piles (entirely embedded and partially embedded) after flexural buckling were analyzed. Results show that the buckling load capacity increases as the ratios of pile stiffness to soil stiffness increasing. The pile performance will be more stable when ratios of soil depth to pile length, and soil stiffness to pile stiffness decrease.
