The main purpose of this study is to perform shaking table tests validate the inelastic seismic analysis method applicable pressure-retaining metal components in nuclear power plants (NPPs). To do this, test mockup was designed and fabricated be able describe hot leg surge line nozzle with a piping system, which known one seismically fragile steam supply systems (NSSS). used input motions are d...

We have previously demonstrated in a rat ascites hepatoma cell line (Yoshida AH 130) the presence of a glucose-activatable and amiloride sensitive Na+/H+ exchange (Cell Biol. Int. Rep., 1984, 8, 297-307). Amiloride is known to inhibit this exchange and to cause a cytoplasmic acidification, with inhibition of protein and DNA synthesis, in cells induced to grow. Amiloride appears also to penetrat...

during 2005-2006, a faunistic study was carried out to identify predatory mites associated with citrus trees in the western part of mazandaran, iran. five species, viz. amblyseius herbicolus chant, typhlodromips caspiansis denmark & daneshvar, neoseiulus barkeri (hughes), paraseiulus triporus (chant & yoshida-shaul) and euseius amissibilis meshkov*, belonging to the family phytoseiidae were col...

The tridiagonalization and its back-transformation for computing eigenpairs of real symmetric dense matrices are known to be the bottleneck of the execution time in parallel processing owing to the communication cost and the number of floating-point operations. To overcome this problem, we focus on real symmetric band eigensolvers proposed by Gupta and Murata since their eigensolvers are compos...
