Trimethylamine and dimethylamine contents of salted, hot-air dried, sun dried and boiled-dried samples of three commercial fishes, common mackerel, gizzard-shad and sardine, were analyzed and quantitatively compared at two different temperature conditions. The formation of both secondary amines was more rapid at $25^{\circ}C$ than at $10^{\circ}C$. And the content of dimethylamine in small sardine was comparatively higher than that in the other samples at both temperatures. Residual amounts of trimethylamine oxide of Halted common mackerel, gizzard-shad and boiled-dried small sardine were relatively higher than those of the other samples. Trimethylamine contents of sun dried samples were relatively higher than in the other samples, while those of boiled-dried small sardine was comparatively lower than those of the others. Dimethylamine content of sun dried samples were higher than those of the other samples, whereas those of boiled-dried small sardine and salted common mackerel were comparatively lower than those of the other samples.

This study was designed to investigate fatty acid composition of salt-fermented seafoods in Chonnam area. The seven samples were analyzed for fatty acid composition. The contents of lipid was highest in salt-fer-mented anchovies and followed by salt-fermented small mullets, salt-fermented oysters, salt-fermented sea-arrows and salt-fermented small shrimps. The ratio of fatty acid composition depended on the samples but the major fatty acids were $C_{l6:0}$, $C_{20:5}$, $C_{l6:1}$, $C_{22:6}$, and $C_{l8:1}$ among all samples. The composition of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids was highest in salt-fermented sea-arrows (39.11%) and followed by salt-fermented small shrimps, salt-fermented oysters, salt-fermented anchovies and salt-fermented small mullets. In n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, $C_{20:5}$ was relatively abundant in salt-fermented oysters (17.71%) and salt-fermented sea-arrows (16.38%), and $C_{22:6}$ in salt-fermented sea-arrows (22.22%) and salt-fermented small shrimps (15.13~21.50%). However, $C_{22:6}$ was very little in salt-fermented small mullets.l mullets.

Arched Corrugated Steel Roof (ACSR) is a kind of thin-walled steel shell, composing of arched panels with transverse small corrugations. Four full-scale W666 ACSR samples with 18m and 30m span were tested under full and half span static vertical uniform loads. Displacement, bearing capacities and failure modes of the four samples were measured. The web and bottom flange in ACSR with transverse small corrugations are simplified to anisotropic curved plates, and the equivalent tensile modulus, shear modulus and Poisson's ratio of 18m span ACSR were measured. Two 18 m-span W666 ACSR samples were analyzed with the Finite Element Analysis program ABAQUS. Base on the tests, the limit bearing capacity of ACSR is low, and for half span loading, it is 74-75% compared with the full span loading. When the testing load approached to the limit value, the bottom flange at the sample's bulge place locally buckled first, and then the whole arched roof collapsed suddenly. If the vertical loads apply along the full span, the deformation shape is symmetric, but the overall failure mode is asymmetric. For half span vertical loading, the deformation shape and the overall failure mode of the structure are asymmetric. The ACSR displacement under the vertical loads is large and the structural stiffness is low. There is a little difference between the FEM analysis results and testing data, showing the simplify method of small corrugations in ACSR and the building techniques of FEM models are rational and useful.

Samples of striped field mice, Apodemus agrarius Pallas, from eight localities in s southwestern islands and coasts in Korea were collected and analyzed together with samples from the mainland and Jeju island. In chromosomal analyses no variation was revealed in karyotypes among samples from Korea. In morphometric analyses samples from Wan and Bogil islands formed a large-size g group (A. agrarius chejuensis) with those from Jeju island, whereas samples from Jin and H Hajo islands formed a small-size group (A. agrarius coreae) with those from the mainland including southwestern coasts It is supposed that small-size population of striped field mice in Wan and Bogil islands w were extinct and replaced by large-szie population of striped field mice immigrated from Jeju island by humans.

When the sample size is small the robust minimum Hellinger distance (HD) estimator can have substantially poor relative efficiency at the true model. Similarly, approximating the exact null distributions of the ordinary Hellinger distance tests with the limiting chi-square distributions can be quite inappropriate in small samples. To overcome these problems Harris and Basu (1994) and Basu et at. (1996) recommended using a modified HD called penalized Hellinger distance (PHD). Lindsay (1994) and Basu et al. (1997) showed that another density based distance, namely the negative exponential disparity (NED), is a major competitor to the Hellinger distance in producing an asymptotically fully efficient and robust estimator. In this paper we investigate the small sample performance of the estimates and tests based on the NED and penalized NED (PNED). Our results indicate that, in the settings considered here, the NED, unlike the HD, produces estimators that perform very well in small samples and penalizing the NED does not help. However, in testing of hypotheses, the deviance test based on a PNED appears to achieve the best small-sample level compared to tests based on the NED, HD and PHD.

This research examines the effect of positively skewed population distribution on the two sample t-test through simulation. For simulation work, two independent samples were selected from the same chi-square distributions with 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30 degrees of freedom and sample sizes 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, respectively. Chi-square distribution is largely skewed to the right at small degrees of freedom and getting symmetric as the degrees of freedom increase. Simulation results show that the sampled populations are distributed positively skewed like chi-square distribution with small degrees of freedom, the F-test for the equality of variances shows poor performances even at the relatively large degrees of freedom and sample sizes like 30 for both, and so it is recommended to avoid using F-test. When two population variances are equal, the skewness of population distribution does not affect on the t-test in terms of the confidence level. However even though for the highly positively skewed distribution and small sample sizes like three or five the t-test achieved the nominal confidence level, the error limits are very large at small sample size. Therefore, if the sampled population is expected to be highly skewed to the right, it will be recommended to use relatively large sample size, at least 20.

This study selected a representative small arm firing range and analyzed the distribution of heavy metal pollutants such as Pb, Cu, Zn, etc. For this the concentrations of heavy metals in soils, roots and leaves of plants, and water of the small arm firing range were measured. The concentrations of heavy metals in the effluent were also checked during precipitation. The concentration of lead in the samples collected from the top soil(0-5 cm) and sub soil(5-50 cm) near the target in the small arm firing range exceeded the concern level of the Soil Environment Conservation Act of Korea, but not in other soil samples. Plants that grow in soil heavily contaminated with lead showed a high lead concentration, especially in roots. However, the concentration of lead in effluent from the small arm firing range was less than 0.02 ppm. The concentration of copper and zinc in the small arm firing range did not surpass the concern level of the Soil Environment Conservation Act of Korea. Through this study more accurate information on the distribution of heavy metal pollution in the soil of the small arm firing range was obtained. Based on this research, we can conclude that some facility improvements can reduce the spreading of pollutants in the currently used small arm firing range and contribute to the design and operation of advanced small arm firing ranges.

Undrained triaxial tests were peformed for a weathered soil, which includes local measurement using LVDT The behavior from small In large strain conditions could be evaluated consistently through a triaxial test, The stress-strain relationship of undisturbed samples were compared with the disturbed and the shear moduli in the small strain level had the almost same values. Especially the shear moduli were mostly affected by the initial condition of water contents. An anisotropic hardening model based on the total stress concept could predict the stress-strain relationship accurately, which makes it possible to analyze the geotechnical problem reasonably for the weathered soil.

This paper derives a consistent and bias corrected extension of Akaike's Information Criterion (AIC), $AIC_{bc}$, based on Kullback-Leibler information. This criterion has terms that penalize the overparametrization more strongly for small and large samples than that of AIC. The overfitting problem of the asymptotically efficient model selection criteria for small and large samples will be overcome. The $AIC_{bc}$ also provides a consistent model order selection. Thus, it is widely applicable to data with small and/or large sample sizes, and to cases where the number of free parameters is a relatively large fraction of the sample size. Relationships with other model selection criteria such as $AIC_c$ of Hurvich, CAICF of Bozdogan and etc. are discussed. Empirical performances of the $AIC_{bc}$ are studied and discussed in better model order choices of a linear regression model using a Monte Carlo experiment.

In this paper we analyze convergence constraints and time constant of IT-LMS algorithm and derive a method of making it's time constant independent of signal power by using input variance estimation. The method for estimating the input variance is to use a single-pole low-pass filter(LPF) with common smoothing parameter value, θ. The estimator is with narrow bandwidth for large θ but with wide bandwidth for small θ. This small θ gives long term average estimation(low frequency) of the fluctuating input variance well as short term variations (high frequency) of the input power. In our simulations of multipath communication channel equalization environments, the method with large θ has shown not as much improved convergence speed as the speed of the original IT-LMS algorithm. The proposed method with small θ=0.01 reach its minimum MSE in 100 samples whereas the IT-LMS converges in 200 samples. This shows the proposed, tap-power normalized IT-LMS algorithm can be applied more effectively to digital wireless communication systems.
