The objective of this study is to analyze the difference between the theoretically calculated torque values of lead screws used in vehicle seat rails and the required torque values due to various disturbances that occur in actual systems. Lead screws were classified into square and trapezoidal threads and modeled by two lead type. Dynamic analysis models were constructed by applying contact conditions and rotational joints between the lead screw and nut. The validity of the dynamic model was verified by comparing the torque values obtained from rigid body dynamic analysis with the theoretically calculated torque values. Then, the lead screw was modeled as a flexible body to investigate the torque variation required for the lead screw when dynamic loads are considered. This study will help predict the actual torque values of lead screws for seat rails.

The effect of PEMFC trapezoidal channel wall contact angle on water removal characteristics is investigated with the volume of fluid (VOF) method. Two different contact angles 60 and 90 degrees are selected. In the case of the side and top wall contact angle of 60 degrees, stable semi-spherical droplets move along the top wall slowly. In contrast, complex shaped droplets move along the lower edge in the case of 90 degrees. Moreover, it is shown that very complex interaction patterns between different droplets which introduced into the channel at different times.

Twenty four fractions by solvent extraction and/or acid precipitation from fruit body and culture broth of Inonotus obliquus were prepared, and their inhibitory effect against acetylcholinesterase (AChE) was investigated. Among these fractions, acid (1 M HCl) precipitates from cell-free culture broth and fruit body exhibited the highest inhibitory effect on AChE in vitro. Acid precipitates inhibited AChE activity in a concentration-dependant manner and IC50 values of both acid precipitates were 0.53 mg/mL. The inhibition pattern was general non-competitive inhibition. The energetic parameters were also determined by dual substrate/temperature design. Both acid precipitates increased the values of Ea, ΔH, ΔG and ΔH* decreasing the value of ΔS for AChE. The results implied that the acid precipitates from I. obliquus increased the thermodynamic barrier, leading to the breakdown of ES complex and the formation of products as inhibitory mechanism.

본 논문에서는 기하학적으로 비선형인 유연한 Timoshenko 보의 대변위 운동방정식에 유한요소를 사용하여 정식화하였다. 비선형 구속방정식은 라그랑지 상수를 이용하여 운동방정식에 통합되었다. 정식화하는 과정과 수치해석에서 선형과 비선형 영향을 파악하였고, 코리올리스(Coriolis)힘과 회전자(Gyroscopic)힘의 효과는 관성력과 감쇠력과는 달리 일반적인 외력으로 간주하여 해석할 수 있었다. Newmark의 시간적분과 Newton-Raphson 반복법을 사용한 수치예제를 통해 정식화의 효용성을 보여주었다.
