The collective behavior of bacteria plays an important role in biofilm development. In this study, the fluidic properties of biofilms formed in Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Bacillus subtilis (B. subtilis) colonies were compared by visualizing 200-nm fluorescent beads that were initially embedded in an agar plate and distributed spontaneously on the upper surface of the growing colonies. We conducted experiments to measure the three-dimensional profile of the E. coli colony using fluorescent microbeads that did not flow in the colony. Vortical flow patterns near the edge of the B. subtilis colony were observed clearly by tracking the movement of the beads in the biofilm of the colony. The present study should be the first step toward determining the effect of fluidic biofilms on the growth and swarming dynamics of bacteria.

Microstructural, optical and dielectric properties of $SrTiO_3$ thin films were investigated. These films were deposited on the ITO glasses by rf-magnetron sputtering at room temperature and subequently heat treated in $O_2$ atmosphere at various temperatures. It has been found from X-ray diffraction patterns that as-deposited films prepared at room temperature are amorphous, while the films heat treated at temperature range of 400~$600^{\circ}C$ reveal the structure of pyrochlore. On the other hand, the structure of perovskite is dominantly observed in the films heat treated at temperatures over $650^{\circ}C$ in which the drastic changes of optical band gap and dielectric constant are observed. In addition, the phase transition peak is observed at $272^{\circ}C$ in the films heat treated at $600^{\circ}C$, while the dielectric dispersion is observed at near $310^{\circ}C$ in the films heat treated at $650^{\circ}C$.

The microstructural characterization of ternary $ZnS_{x}Se_{1-x}$(x=0.085) on GaAs(001) substrate grown up to $2{\mu}m\;at\;300^{\circ}C$ by molecular beam epitaxy(MBE) which has a single growth chamber was investigated by high resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM) working at 300 kV with point resolution of 0.18nm. The interface in the ZnSSe/GaAs specimen maintains a pseudomorphism with the substrate, but the epilayer has high density of stacking faults and moire fringes. The pits which had formed along <111> direction were found at the interface of ZnSSe/GaAs. The pits were responsible for producing defects in both epilayer and substrate. The wavy interface which has the difference of 15nm in height was found to maintain the pseudomorphism with the substrate and no stacking faults were found around the interface. However there exists faint and fine moire fringes in the epilayer near interface.

Hydraulic fracturing is used as a method for promoting the fluid flow in the rock and, in the energy field such as geothermal development and the development of sales gas, many studies has been actively conducted. In many cases, hydraulic fracturing is not performed in isotropic rock and especially in the case of sedimentary rocks, hydraulic fracturing is conducted in the transverse isotropic rock. The direction of the crack growth on hydraulic fracturing does not necessarily coincides with the direction of maximum principal stress in the transverse isotropic rock. Therefore, in this study, bonded particle model with hydro-mechanical coupling analysis was adopted for analyzing the characteristics of hydraulic fracturing in transverse isotropic rock. In addition, experiments of hydraulic fracturing were conducted in laboratory-scale to verify the validity of numerical analysis. In this study, the crack growth and crack patterns showed significant differences depending on the viscosity of injection fluid, the angle of bedding plane and the influence of anisotropy. In the case of transverse isotropic model, the shear crack growth due to hydraulic fracturing appeared prominently.

This study was carried out to investigate the cultural characteristics and the genetic characteristics in Lepists nuda. The mycelia cultural characteristics which include the specificity for pH, carbon source, nitrogen source and medium were studied using petridish culture and liquid media culture respectively. The genetic characteristics were also investigated using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis. To find out the mycelial growth rate by various medium, mycelia was cultured for 25 days in PDA, YM, MEA, GPB and Yamanaka. The Yamanaka was superior to the other media in supporting the mycelial growth. pH6 produced the best result in the test of an optimal pH. In experiment for optimal carbon source, starch showa 46.8$\pm$1.7mm of diameter of mycelial colony as the best and for nitrogen source, yeast extract showed a good effect as well. In investigation for genetic characteristics, Lepists nuda was amplified by 7 primers among 10 primers and Pleurotus ostreatus was also amplified by 7 primers. From the RAPD analysis between species, the band patterns were different.

We synthesized GaN nanowires with high quality using the vapor phase epitaxy technique. The GaN nanowires were obtained at a temperature of $950^{\circ}C$. The Ar and $NH_3$ flow rates were 1000 sccm and 50 sccm, respectively. The shape of the GaN nanowires was confirmed through FESEM analysis. We were able to conclude that the GaN nanowires synthesized via vapor-solid (VLS) mechanism when the source was closed to the substrate. On the other side, the VS mechanism changed to vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) as the source and the substrate became more distant. Therefore, we can suggest that the large amount of Ga source from initial growth interrupt the role of catalyst on the substrate.

The properties of carbon nanotube-metal hybrid nanostructures are critically dependent on the structure and chemistry of the metal-carbon nanotube interface. In this study, the interface between nickel and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) has been investigated using physical vapor-deposited (sputter-deposited) nickel onto the surface of freestanding carbon nanotube arrays processed by nano-imprint lithography (NIL). These interfaces have been characterized by transmission electron microscopy and 3D atom probe tomography. In the nickel nanocrystals growing on the CNT surface, a metastable hexagonal $Ni_3C$-types phase appears to be stabilized. The structural stability of the nickel-CNT interface is also discussed and related to potential implications for the properties of these nanocomposites.

최근 기후변화로 인해 예측이 어려운 국지성 호우가 빈번하게 발생하고 있다. 국지성 호우는 대량의 홍수를 일으켜 유송잡물을 동반한 흐름을 야기할 수 있다. 대량의 유송잡물이 하상에 퇴적되면 통수능을 저하시키기도 하며 식생효과와 마찬가지로 유목주변으로 유속이 증가하면서 세굴현상이 발생하게 되는데, 이는 하상저하를 일으키며 수공구조물의 안정성에 지속적으로 피해를 줄 수 있다. 기후변화는 또한 강우패턴을 변화시켜 식생의 성장과 활착에도 영향을 미치게 된다. 본 연구지역인 내성천 회룡포의 경우, 2015년 대가뭄 발생 이후 식생활착으로 인해 식생대 면적이 증가하고 잇는 상황이다. 이는 연구지역의 흐름과 사주교란 및 하상변동에도 큰 영향을 미칠 것으로 판단되며, 특히 식생의 증가는 유송잡물의 증가를 야기 할 수 있기 때문에 식생과 유송잡물의 영향이 하천에 미치는 영향을 예측하는 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 2차원 흐름모형인 Nays2D와 입자법기반의 유목동역학 모형을 활용하여 식생과 유송잡물이 하상변동에 미치는영향에 대한 수치실험을 수행하고 결과를 분석하였다. 여기서, 식생의 경우, 식생성장모형을 적용하여 시간에 따라 식생이 성장하여 항력이 증가하는 것으로 가정하였으며 유송잡물의 경우, 하상에 퇴적되는 유송잡물의 개수와 면적만큼 항력이 증가하는 것으로 가정하였다. 흐름의 경계 조건은 일반화된 부정류 수문곡선을 입력하였으며 초기 하도의 형상은 일정한 경사를 가지는 평지로 가정하여 부정류에 따라 하상변동이 발생하는 것으로 모의하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과, 유송잡물보다 식생대 번성이 하상변동에 상대적으로 큰 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났으며, 유송잡물의 경우 국부적으로 퇴적 분포되어 그 주변으로 침식을 일으키는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 유송잡물은 하안의 얕은수역에서 주로 퇴적되었다. 본 연구는 만곡부 하상변동에 대해 식생과 유송잡물을 고려하여 예측모의를 수행한 사례로서, 식생과 유송잡물이 흐름과 하상변동에 미치는 영향을 이해하는데 도움이 될 것으로 판단된다. 또한 이는 추후에 식생을 고려하는 하천관리방안을 수립 시, 식생과 유송잡물의 영향을 물리적으로 설명할 수 있는 근거자료로 제시할 수 있을 것으로 보인다.
