Objectives: This study evaluated the effects of adhesion variables such as the priming concepts of canal wall and the curing modes of adhesives on the sealing ability of a resin-based root canal filling system. Materials and Methods: Apical microleakage of the Resilon-RealSeal systems filled with 3 different combinations of adhesion variables was compared with the conventional gutta-percha filling using a dye penetration method. Experimental groups were SEDC, Resilon (Resilon Research LLC) filling with self-etch RealSeal (SybronEndo) primer and dual-cure RealSeal sealer; NELC, Resilon filling with no etching, Scotchbond Multi-Purpose (3M ESPE) primer application and light-curing adhesive; and TELC, Resilon filling with Scotchbond Multi-Purpose primer and adhesive used under total etch / wet bonding and lightcure protocols. GPCS, gutta-percha filling with conventional AH26 plus sealer, was the control group. Results: The median longitudinal dye penetration length of TELC was significantly shorter than those of GPCS and SEDC (Kruskal-Wallis test, p < 0.05). In the cross-sectional microleakage scores, TELC showed significant differences from other groups at 2 to 5 mm from the apical foramen (Kruskal-Wallis test, p < 0.05). Conclusions: When a resin-based root canal filling material was used, compared to the self-etching primer and the dual-cure sealer, the total etch/wet-bonding with primer and light-curing of adhesive showed improved apical sealing and was highly recommended.

푸쉬-풀 환기시스템은 도금조와 같이 흡인해야 할 거리가 상대적으로 긴 경우에 많이 사용되고 있다. 그러나, 창문이나 출입문을 통한 방해기류가 푸쉬-풀 환기시스템의 오염물질 제어효율을 심각하게 훼손시키고 있다고 추측하고 있으나 이에 대한 세부적인 연구가 부족한 상태에 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 전산유체역학(Computational fluid dynamics)을 이용하여 푸쉬-풀 환기시스템에서의 방해기류의 방향과 세기가 흡인효율에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지에 대해 평가해 보았다. 선형흡인효율(Linear capture efficiency) 방법을 이용하여 푸쉬-풀 환기시스템에서 가상의 개방조에서 발생한 오염물질이 푸쉬-풀 시스템에 의하여 포집되지 못하고 누출되는 구역이 어딘지를 찾아낼 수 있었다. 전산유체역학 컴퓨터시뮬레이션은 AIRPAK2.1 (FLUENT CODE) 소프트웨어를 사용하였다. 푸쉬-풀 후드시스템에 방해기류가 강하게 작용하면 상대적으로 강한 와류가 발생하는데, 일반적인 난류모델인 ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$모델은 와류현상을 충분히 보여주지 못한 반면에 RNG 모델을 사용했을 때 실험결과를 적절히 모사해낼 수 있었다. RNG 모델을 이용하여 세가지 방향, 즉 푸쉬에서 풀 방향으로, 풀에서 푸쉬 방향으로 그리고 그에 수직되는 방향으로 방해기류가 있을 때의 푸쉬-풀 환기시스템의 흡인효율을 분석하였다. 방해기류가 0.25m/s이하일 때에는 흡인효율이 거의 떨어지지 않았으나, 방해기류가 0.6m/s에서 흡인효율이 40-70%로 떨어짐을 알 수 있었다. 따라서, 방해기류를 감소시킬 수 있는 방안에 대해서도 연구를 해야 되겠지만, 방해기류 존재 하에서 충분한 흡인 효율을 유지할 수 있는 푸쉬-풀 후드 설계기준에 대한 연구도 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

The Korean government attempts to reduce $CO_2$ emissions by 37% to 314.7 Mt $CO_2$, down from the estimated 850.6 Mt $CO_2$ until 2030 in order to confront green house effect. In this context, in 2014, Korean government launched $CO_2$ Storage Environmental Management Research (K-COSEM) Center for carrying out pilot-scale research on $CO_2$ leakage from underground $CO_2$ storage facilities. For the detection of $CO_2$ leakage, it is necessary to identify hydrologeological and geophysical characteristics of the subject area. In the study site of Naesan-ri, Daeso-myeon, Eumseong-gun, Chungbuk Province, two times injection tests (June 28-July 24, 2017 and August 07-September 11, 2017) of $CO_2$ and $SF_6$ dissolved waters, respectively, was conducted to understand the leakage behavior of $CO_2$ from underground. The injection well was drilled to a depth of 24 m with a 21-m casing and screen interval of 21~24 m depth. Two times resistivity surveys on August 18, 2017 and September 1, 2017, were conducted for revealing the flow of the injected water as well as the electrical properties of the study site. The study results have shown that the high-resistivity zone and the low-resistivity zone are clearly contrasted with each other and the flow direction of the injected water is similar to natural groundwater flow. Besides, the low resistivity zone is widely formed from the depth of injection to the shallow topsoil, indicating that the weathered zone of high permeability has high $CO_2$ leakage potential.

Hydrogen is considered to be the most important future energy carrier in many applications reducing significantly greenhouse gas emissions, but the safety issues associated with hydrogen applications need to be investigated and fully understood to be applicable as the carrier. Therefore, there is a considerable demand for further research concerning the dispersion of hydrogen/air mixture clouds and the possible consequences of their ignition. In this study, the dispersion of hydrogen gas in atmosphere has been analysed with atmospheric condition by concerning the buoyancy of hydrogen. The hazard ranges to wind direction increase with wind speed and the stability of atmosphere. The concentration of hydrogen at just above ground is nearly zero due to buoyancy of hydrogen gas. Therefore, the ignition probability of hydrogen gas cloud is low and the hazard of explosion or fire associated with hydrogen gas is relatively low comparing with the other fuel gas such as propane or butane.

Recently, the use of hazardous chemicals has been continuously increasing. Therefore, the international trade volume is growing and chemical accidents have increased. Nowadays, the safety awareness of the public has increased. As a result, the management and supervision of hazardous chemicals have been strengthened. However, the port policy of Korea has focused on increasing the volume of cargo through facility development. Thus, the port management of hazardous chemicals has been relatively neglected. For national economic growth and society, the port management of hazardous chemicals should be considered to efficiently ensure safety and economic growth. Therefore, this study assumed scenarios where hazardous materials were moved in a dangerous container, not only on appropriate wharfs but also in ports that were close to a big city. The BTX substances were selected among the toxic chemicals with large import and export volumes, and the risk distance and damage effects were predicted using various risk assessment programs. It is expected that this could be used to improve a port safety management system and could be utilized to determine the safety distance in case of an accident.

In this study, we selected chlorine, a typical toxic material used in many workplaces, as the leakage material, and through the analysis of alternative scenarios based on the meteorological conditions in the summer frequently encountered in accidents, we suggest ways to improve the (method of analysis/accident scenario modeling). The analysis of 296 chemical accidents from January 2014 to December 2016 found that the highest rate of occurrence was in summer, accounting for 35.81% of the total. According to the risk assessment, the influence range and number of inhabitants in the influence area were 712.4 m and 20,090 under the annual mean weather conditions and 796.2 m and 27,143 people under the summer mean weather conditions, respectively. This result implies that, under certain conditions, the range of impacts in the current alternative scenario is incomplete. Therefore, risk assessment systems need to be improved in order to take into consideration the characteristics of each chemical substance.

Nuclear power plant has increased continuously for power production in all over the world and the interest about nuclear accident and the dismantling of aging nuclear power plant has been a growing. The leaked radioactive source that is generated by radiation accidents must detect and remove to minimized the damage as soon as possible. Gamma-ray detection system that have been developed until now cannot provide the precise position of radioactive sources because they detect and imaging the position of radiation sources in just two dimensions. In this paper, stereo gamma ray detection system has developed and the algorithm for calculation of the distance has implemented to be able to measure the distribution of the leakage gamma ray source for the system. Stereo camera calibration for distance detection was conducted with the correction pattern and LED light and we carried out performance test of the system for the LED light source and a gamma ray source. In both experiments the results of the performance test, it was confirmed to have a 5% error. The results of this paper is used as a material for the development of gamma-ray imaging device.

Although printing technology has recently been widely used in IT fields including displays and fuel cells, residual and thermal stress are generated by a manufacturing process of stacking the layers of the print head and result in the substrate deformation and nozzle plate crack, which may cause ink leaks or not be ejected onto a desired region. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a new design of thermal inkjet print head with a robust and reliable structure. Diverse types of inkjet print head such as a rib, pillar, support wall and individual feed hole are designed to reduce the deformation of the substrate and nozzle plate, and their feasibility is numerically investigated through FEA analysis. The numerical results show that the maximum stress and deformation of proposed print head dramatically drops to at least 40~50%, and it is confirmed that there is no nozzle plate cracks and ink leakage through the fabrication of pillar and support wall typed print head. Therefore, it is expected that the proposed head shape can be applied not only to ink ejection in the normal direction, but also to large-area printing technology.

우리나라에서도 고준위폐기물 처분시설의 장기안전성 확보를 위한 기초연구가 시작되고 있어 안전성 기준에 대한 논의가 필요한 시점이다. 여기서는 고준위폐기물 처분시설의 안전성 기준에 대한 국제기관들의 권고하는 기준들을 조사하고, 현재 여러 나라에서 제안되거나 개정중에 있는 기준들을 비교 분석하였다. 안전성기준에서의 큰 차이점은 유도기준의 필요성(현재 미국만의 유도기준을 사용), ALARA 적용문제, 종합적 위험도 적용방법론의 문제, 위험도 수준등에서 나타나고 있으며, 특히 미래 상황의 불확실성 때문에 현재 및 개 국가에서 제시하고 있는 안전성평가기간 (10,000면)은 계속 논란이 일 것으로 보인다. 미래 예측이 어느 정도 가능한 최소한의 기간(수천년 혹은 만년)까지는 위험도를 기준으로, 그리고 그 이후는 지표로의 누출율을 기준으로 정하는 것도 바람직한 대안이 될 것으로 생각된다. 또한 안전성기준은 설계자로 하여금 대안분석을 통한 최적화를 방해하는 구체적인 유포기준보다는 융통성을 어느 정도 부여하는 방향으로 설정되는 것이 바람직한 것으로 사료된다.
