This study discusses the wave transformation(wave reflection and transmission) by a impermeable submerged breakwater with one ray, and integrated horizontal wave pressure acting on the structure. Numerical method in this study is based on the simplified eigenfunction expansion method and linear wave theory. Although this method is very simple, the results give good agreement with the one of the strict eigenfunciton expansion method, especially, in case that the crown width of the submerged breakwater becomes longer and its crown water depth shallower. Therefore, it is concluded that this simplified method is one good method in planning coastal structures as like the submerged breakwater in this study, and computing their wave transformations.

In order to establish a reliable and highly efficient method for genetic transformation of pepper, a monitoring system featuring GFP (green fluorescent protein) as a report marker was applied to Agrobacteriummediated transformation. A callus-induced transformation (CIT) system was used to transform the GFP gene. GFP expression was observed in all tissues of $T_0$, $T_1$ and $T_2$ peppers, constituting the first instance in which the whole pepper plant has exhibited GFP fluorescence. A total of 38 T0 peppers were obtained from 4,200 explants. The transformation rate ranged from 0.47 to 1.83% depending on the genotype, which was higher than that obtained by CIT without the GFP monitoring system. This technique could enhance selection power by monitoring GFP expression at the early stage of callus in vitro. The detection of GFP expression in the callus led to successful identification of the shoot that contained the transgene. Thus, this technique saved lots of time and money for conducting the genetic transformation process of pepper. In addition, a co-transformation technique was applied to the target transgene, CaCS (encoding capsaicinoid synthetase of Capsicum) along with GFP. Paprika varieties were transformed by the CaCS::GFP construct, and GFP expression in callus tissues of paprika was monitored to select the right transformant.

Objective : Min fire(民火) is mentioned as a kind of fire that exists in human body, which rarely appears in traditional medical books. It was mainly mentioned as a fire in urinary bladder, and was referred to have some function in the process of qi transformation(氣化) in urinary bladder. As the concept of min fire was originated from the Taoist internal alchemy, this study will make a comparative research between the examples of min fire in medical theory and Taoist internal alchemy, and will find out the conceptual significance of min fire in medical theory. Method : Among traditional medical books, min fire appears in such books as Yixuerumen(醫學入門), Youyoujicheng(幼幼集成), Fengshijinnangmilu(馮氏錦囊秘錄), and also in some books of Taoist internal alchemy. Though rather brief and informal, they show us some information about the performance of min fire in human body. So based on the information about min fire that was acquired from those books, this study will apply the concept of min fire to the traditional dispute on the problem of qi transformation in urinary bladder. Result & Conclusion : The concept of min fire that is related to the problem of qi transformation in urinary bladder, shows well that qi transformation in urinary bladder produces not only urine but also the ascent of shuijing(水精). And it also shows well that min fire acts as a power for the qi transformation in urinary bladder, which would perform well in the cooperation with sovereign fire(君火). This can be presented as a theoretical basis that the power for the qi transformation in urinary bladder is basically prepared in urinary bladder itself.

The vibration analysis of the circular arch as a member of a structure has been an important subject of mechanics due to its various applications to many industrial fields. In particular, circular arches with variable cross section are widely used to optimize the distribution of weight and strength and to satisfy special architectural and functional requirements. The Generalized Differential Quadrature Method (GDQM) and Differential Transformation Method (DTM) were recently proposed by Shu and Zou, respectively. In this study, GDQM and DTM were applied to the vibration analysis of circular arches with variable cross section. The governing equations of motion for circular arches with variable cross section were derived. The concepts of Differential Transformation and Generalized Differential Quadrature were briefly introduced. The non-dimensionless natural frequencies of circular arches with variable cross section were obtained for various boundary conditions. The results obtained using these methods were compared with those of previous works. GDQM and DTM showed fast convergence, accuracy, efficiency, and validity in solving the vibration problem of circular arches with variable cross section.

In this paper, a new logic transformation method to consider both low power consumption and high testability is proposed. We search the CFF(Compact Fanout Free) that has low probability of being observable at the primary outputs. Under the condition that the CFF is unobservable at all primary outputs, the switching operations in it can be removed by adding redundant connections into it. The testability of the transformed circuit generally tends to reduce. In our method, however, the inserted redundant connections operate as test points in the test mode and can improve not only the controllability but also the observability of the CFF. The transformed circuit consumes less power in the normal mode and also has higher testability in the test mode. To show the efficiency of the proposed logic transformation method, we perform some experiments on the MCNC benchmark test circuits. The results show that the power consumption of the transformed circuit is reduced by 13% maximally and the fault coverage of the transformed circuit is increased.

All the method used in teaching the ellipse was to have students draw the points which have the same sum of distances from the two points so that they can confirm the shapes of the ellipse before showing them the definition of ellipse. In this process, students would not get an opportunity to think or make the definition of ellipse for themselves. This deductive way can hinder students from having clear understanding of why such definition was made. This paper introduces a method of defining the ellipse based on the similarity between a circle and an ellipse, leading into the equation. This method is possible by introducing Analytic Geometry taught in current school mathematics and Transformation Geometry. By doing so, this paper will discuss a fundamental understanding about the ellipse and the feature of the ellipse expandable by intuition. Furthermore this paper will also show various advantages which can be given by defining the ellipse in Transformation Geometry.

Formal methods for protocol description of a system is based on the implementation id S/W. However, the importance of H/W implementation for a parts of protocol design is increasing. The combination between H/W and IP technology is needed since the implementation environment is changing from S/W to H/W for implementation of specific application protocol. H/W implementation method starting with formal description procedure is essential to guarantree correctness and reliability of the implemented H/W by characteristic of formal description language. Inthis paper, for an automated H/W implementations, ESTELLE, a formal description method, is adopted. A transformation method from specification of ESTELLE to VHDL is suggested. This is an conceptual method that comparing and analyzing similarities between basic units of protocol description such as computation and communication unit and inter processors in H/W. Then we describe transformation model, and suggest example of transformation from ESTELLE to VHDL with Inres protocol.

In modal analysis, the mode shape reflects the vibration characteristics of the structure, and thus it is widely performed for finite element model updating and structural health monitoring. Generally, the acceleration-based mode shape is suitable to express the characteristics of structures for the translational vibration; however, it is difficult to represent the rotational mode at boundary conditions. A tilt sensor and gyroscope capable of measuring rotational mode are used to analyze the overall behavior of the structure, but extracting its mode shape is the major challenge under the small vibration always. Herein, we conducted a feasibility study on a multi-mode shape estimating approach utilizing a single physical quantity signal. The basic concept of the proposed method is to receive multi-metric dynamic responses from two sensors and obtain mode shapes through bridge loading test with relatively large deformation. In addition, the linear transformation matrix for estimating two mode shapes is derived, and the mode shape based on the gyro sensor data is obtained by acceleration response using ambient vibration. Because the structure's behavior with respect to translational and rotational mode can be confirmed, the proposed method can obtain the total response of the structure considering boundary conditions. To verify the feasibility of the proposed method, we pre-measured dynamic data acquired from five accelerometers and five gyro sensors in a lab-scale test considering bridge structures, and obtained a linear transformation matrix for estimating the multi-mode shapes. In addition, the mode shapes for two physical quantities could be extracted by using only the acceleration data. Finally, the mode shapes estimated by the proposed method were compared with the mode shapes obtained from the two sensors. This study confirmed the applicability of the multi-mode shape estimation approach for accurate damage assessment using multi-dimensional mode shapes of bridge structures, and can be used to evaluate the behavior of structures under ambient vibration.

This study aims to suggest an analysis method for the research on the transformation of welfare states. To this end, 'restucturization' and 'change inside the structure' were differentiated. The 'restucturization' indicates a fundamental change of the structure itself, while the 'change inside the structure' means the modification of elements inside the structure. If 'abolition', 'substitution'/'entrust' and 'introduction' occurred, the changes are considered the 'restucturization'. Then it is examined, how the competence of the public organizations for social security systems is changed after the 'restucturization'. On the basis of this evaluation measure, the changes of 'restucturization' are defined as 'public-oriented restucturization', 'private-oriented restucturization' or 'status quo'. For analyzing the 'change inside the structure', coverage, entitlement, the level and length of benefit, finance and delivery system were compared within each country. The current study applied this analysis method to the research on the transformations of social security systems of Great Britain, Sweden and Germany.

We research on the coordinate transformation between Korean geodetic system and WGS 1984. We made the wide area an object of our research. This area covers the range of longitude $1^\circ$ 32'and latitude $1^\circ$ 7'and is four times wider than a first stage research published in 1992. For this research, we performed GPS observations at 10 control point (seven astrogeodetic points, three triangulation points) and eight banch marks nearby control points, and then transformed the coordinates of WGS 84 to Korean geodetic system using the 7 parameter method, Molodensky method and MRE method. From this test, we compared the precision of the coordinate transformation by each method and checked which method is more applicable to Korea. We could find that the precision by 7 parameter method is three times better than the other methods and that the coordinate transformation by 7 parameter method is possible with the precision of 0".017, 0".016, 0.329 m in latitude, longitude and height. We could check and correct the height blunder of the control points by the bench marks nearby control point. We also could find the precision of coordinate transformation is more improved by the correction of height blunder.t blunder.
