  • 본 논문에서는 비동기식 Zipper 방식의 VDSL(Very High Blt-rate Digital Subscriber Line) 시스템에서 cyclic extension 을 최소화 하는 기법을 제안하고, 전형적인 전화채널 환경 하에서 제안된 방식의 성능을 분석한다. Zipper 방식에서는 각 DMT(discrete-multitone) 블록에cyclic prefix(CP) 와 cyclic suffix(CS)가 추가로 사용되는데, 여기서 CP 는 심볼간 간섭과 부채널간 간섭을 방지하기 위하여 삽입되며, CS는 upstream 과 downstream 부반송파간의 직교성을 유지하기 위하여 추가되어 near-end crosstalk (NEXT)을 방지한다. 이 방식이 동기식 Zipper 방식으로 CS에 의해 NEXT를 제거하기 위해서는 한 binder 내의 모든 송신단의 동기를 맞추어야 한다. 그러나 비동기식 Zipper 방식은 다른 송신단과의 동기가 맞지 않아 CS가 NEXT에 아무런 영향을 주지 못한다 본 논문에서는 CS를 사용하지 않는 비동기식 Zipper 방식의 VDSL 시스템을 제안한다. 컴퓨터 모의실험을 통하여 제안된 방식이 전형적인 채널환경 하에서 기존 Zipper 방식의 VDSL 시스템과 비교하여 비슷한 전송능력을 갖게 됨을 보인다.

  • The suspended zipper bracing system is suggested to reduce the flaws of ordinary zipper braced and concentric inverted V braced frames. In the design procedure of suspended zipper bracing systems, columns and top story truss elements are strengthened. This bracing system show different performances and characteristics compared with inverted V braced and ordinary zipper frames. As a result, a different response modification factor for suspend zipper frames is needed. In this research paper, the response modification factor of suspended zipper frames was obtained using the incremental dynamic analysis. Suspended zipper braced frames with different stories and bay lengths were selected to be representations of the design space. To analyze the frames, a number of models were constructed and calibrated using experimental data. These archetype models were subjected to 44 earthquake records of the FEMA-P695 project data set. The incremental dynamic analysis and elastic dynamic analysis were carried out to determine the yield base shear value and elastic base shear value of archetype models using the OpenSEES software. The seismic response modification factor for each frame was calculated separately and the values of 9.5 and 13.6 were recommended for ultimate limit state and allowable stress design methods, respectively.

  • Inverted V (or chevron) braced steel frames have been seen as being highly prone to soft story response once the compression brace buckles under earthquake loading. To salvage chevron braced frames. the concept of the zipper column was proposed many years ago such that the zipper column can redistribute the inelastic demand over the height of the building. However. rational design method for the zipper column has not been established yet. In this paper, a new dynamic design method for the zipper column was proposed by combining the refined physical braced model and modal pushover analysis. Inelastic dynamic analysis conducted on 6 story building model showed that the proposed method was more superior to the existing static design method and was very effective in improving seismic performance of chevron braced steel frames.

  • In this study an innovative rocking zipper braced frame (RZBF) is proposed to overcome the deficiencies of common concentrically braced frames. RZBF is an improved rocking concentrically braced frame which is based on combination of rocking behavior and zipper columns. The base rocking joints and post-tensioned bars provide rocking response and restoring force, respectively. Also, zipper columns distribute the unbalance force over the frame height and reduce the damage concentration. To evaluate seismic performance of RZBF, a comparison study is carried out considering concentrically braced frame, zipper braced frame, rocking concentrically braced frame and RZBF. Thereby, a suite of non-linear time history analyses had been performed on four different types of archetypes with four, six, eight, ten and twelve stories. Frames were designed and non-linear time history analyses were conducted in OpenSees. To compare the seismic behavior of the archetypes, roof drifts, residual roof drifts, story drifts, the forces of first and top story braces, PT bars forces, column uplift and base shears were taken in to consideration. Results illustrate that using RZBF, can reduce the damage due to reduced residual drifts. Zipper columns enhance the seismic performance of rocking systems. As the number of stories increase in the RZBF systems, larger top story braces were needed. So the RZBF system is applicable on low and midrise buildings.

  • Leucine zipper motif consists of multiple periodic leucine residues, which forms amphipathic alpha helix. The hydrophobic nature of leucine zipper motif can dimerize proteins which contain this motif. Leucine zipper motif addition at C-terminus of single-chain Fv (ScFv) antibody induces its dimerization. Since the dimeric ScFv antibody contains two antigen binding sites (bivalency) like Y-shaped complete antibody, it could increase avidity. As a result, it could show higher antigen binding activity than monomeric ScFv antibodies. Based on this concept, monomeric chicken 8C3 ScFv antibody previously developed from chicken hybridoma was dimerized by the addition of leucine zipper motif at C-terminus of ScFv antibody. The dimeric 8C3 ScFv antibody specifically reacted with Eimerian sporozoite which causes Avian Coccidiosis. As expected, dimeric 8C3 ScFv antibody showed 3-folds higher antigen binding activity than monomer due to increased avidity. In addition, protien yields of dimer expression were 2-folds higher than monomer.

  • The effects of airtight containers and zipper bags on the freshness extension of pine nuts (Pinus koraiensis) were studied at 4 and $25^{\circ}C$. Changes in total microbial growth, 2-thiobarbituric acid(TBA), color, and sensory quality were evaluated during storage. Total bacterial counts of the samples continuously increased over 28 days for airtight containers and 56 days for zipper bags, and then decreased at 70 days because the lack of air could affect the inhibition of the aerobic microbial growth. However no significant differences were observed between airtight containers and zipper bags. TBA values continuously increased with storage time, but there were no significant differences between the airtight containers and zipper bags during storage. Color changes and sensory evaluation analyses showed that the data revealed similar results for both packaging systems over the storage time. Therefore, it has been concluded that airtight containers and zipper bags could be used as a good packaging system to extend the shelf life of pine nuts by controlling the microbial growth, but the packaging systems of the airtight containers and the zipper bags was not significantly affect the quality parameters for 2-thiobarbituric acid(TBA), color, and sensory quality.

  • In this paper we propose an efficient implementation technique for cyclic extension in VDSL(Very High bit-rate Digital Subscriber Line) systems using Zipper duplexing and analyze its performances under typical telephone channel environments. In Zipper-based VDSL systems each DTM(discrete-multitone) block is appended by both cyclic prefix(CP) and cyclic suffix(CS). The CP is inserte to prevent both intersymbol interference (ISI) and iterchannel interference (ICI) while the CS is appended to ensure orthogonality between the upstream and downstream carriers thus preventing near-end crosstalk (NEXT). However in order to implement the CP in the transmitter side of the VDSL system an additional hardware is required to append the latter part of each DMT symbol to the beginning of the DMT symbol. In this paper we propose a VDSL system with Zipper duplexing using only CS to reduce hardware complexity (memory and processing delay) required for implementation of CP. It is shown by computer simulation that the proposed approach has the same capacity under typical channel environments as the previous Zipper-based VDSL system using both CP and CS. even with a significantly lower hardware complexity.

  • This paper proposes a new testable design for Zipper CMOS circuits. This design provides an additional feedback loop (called self oscillation loop) whichin the circuit, for testability. The circuit is tested only by observing the oscillation on the loop. The design can be applied to the multistage as well as the single stage, and can detect multiple faults which are undetectable by the conventional testing method. The application and evaluation of test patterns become easy and fault-free responses are not necessary. If the conventional testing method is applied to the sequential Zipper CMOS circuit with the LSSD design technique, it has the serious defect that the initial value may change due to intermediate test patterns and much time taken to apply the necessary test patterns. By using the proposed design, however, the sequential Zipper CMOS circuit with the LSSD design technique can be easily tested without such a defect. Also, the validity of the design is verified by performing the circuit level simulation.

  • Leucine zipper dynamically tunes the degree of bifurcation of the DNA binding segments in the basic region of the Fos-Jun bZIP complex. Molecular dynamics simulation indicated that site-specific mutagenesis of conserved leucine residues inside the leucine zipper domain caused the change of dynamic behavior of the basic region, and efficient DNA binding occurs only within a certain range of distance between the two DNA binding segments in the basic region. Distribution of α-helices in the hinge region is also suggested to influence the bifurcation of the DNA binding segments.
