This study was conducted to investigate effects of cryopreservation by vitrification on the seed germination rate and growth and physiological properties of seedlings of Maackia amurensis. Cryopreservation significantly decreased the germination rate of seeds of M. amurensis, but the reduction of germination rate was mitigated by the treatment of cryoprotectant (plant vitrification solution, PVS2) before plugging into liquid nitrogen and fast thawing rate after cryopreservation. Long-term PVS2 exposure decreased seed germination rate, whereas cryopreservation time didn't have influence on seed germination rate. In addition, growth and physiological properties of seedlings were not affected by PVS2 exposing time and cryopreservation time. Therefore cryopreservation could be widely used as a technique of long-term ex situ conservation without any damage and deterioration of cells or tissues of the forest seeds. However, in order to increase the effect of cryopreservation, we have to develope the lower toxic cryoprotectant and suitable techniques to the structural or chemical properties of a variety of seeds.

Unlike large satellites, small satellites, such as nanosatellite and microsatellite, can provide a limited interior space for components mounting. In order to mitigate this issue, the compact Bus Electronic Unit(BEU) that integrates satellite electronic modules, combining most of bus subsystems and payload electronic modules into one unit, has been developed for HAUSAT-2 nanosatellite. This paper addresses the design and environmental test result analyses of BEU. The vibration and thermal vacuum tests were conducted at qualification level for the verification of design margin of newly developed BEU. The performance of individual electronic subsystem modules has been verified through performance tests before and after the qualification tests. It was confirmed that the natural frequency of BEU satisfies the design stiffness requirement without structural damage in the vibration test. Thermal analysis results were also almost consistent with test results through modified thermal analysis modeling.

The risks of the chemical facilities were estimated by the KS-RBI(Ver. 3.0) program supporting the quantitative cause analysis, and reduction method for the risks of the facilities was investigated. As a result, we could find that the risks of the facilities decrease with reducing the likelihood of failure (LOF) affected by demage mechanism, inspection number and effectiveness of inspection, and with reducing the consequence of failure (COF) affected by the ratings of the detection, isolation, and mitigation systems. Furthermore, high risks of the facilities would be decreased by reduction of the LOF and the COF simultaneously. Accordingly, the applied plant would be able to achieve the decrease of inspection and labor costs because of the decrease of consequences and inspection intervals through the reduction of risks.

Objectives : Atopic dermatitis accompanies with severe pruritus and collapse of skin barrier, inflammation. Maifanite could be used as an ointment for skin disease. However, there have been few studies about maifanite uses for atopic dermatitis. We report the anti-inflammatory and promoting skin recovery effects of ionized maifanite on damaged skin barrier with experimentally elicited atopic dermatitis. Methods : Nc/Nga mice were divided into 3 groups: control group(CON), atopic dermatitis elicited group(AE group), ionized maifanite treated group after atopic dermatitis elicitation(MT group). After 5% SDS was applied D. pteronyssinus crude extract also applied for 3 weeks to elicit atopic dermatitis-like skin disease. MT group was treated for 3 weeks with ionized maifanite. Ionized maifanite was applied once a day and voluntarily administrated. AE group and control group were treated with normal saline in the same way. Results : In MT group, skin lesions like eczema were more improved than AE group. p-ERK1/2 positive reaction was reduced in MT group. MMP-9 and substance P positive reaction at dermal papillae was also reduced in MT group. With skin angiogram, capillary vessel decreased in MT group. Also, IL-4 positive reaction cell and STAT-6 positive reaction cell reduced more in MT group than in AE group. $NF-{\kappa}B$ p65 positive reaction cell and iNOS positive reaction cell also declined more in MT group than in AE group. Conclusions : It is supposed that ionized maifanite has anti-inflammatory effects on NC/Nga mice's atopic dermatitis with suppressing IL-4 production and Th2 cell differentiation, and controlling $NF-{\kappa}B$ activation.

Generally, after stern tube bearing shows a significant increase in local load due to propeller load, which increases the potential adverse effects of bearing failure. To prevent this, research on regarding shaft alignment has been carried out with a focus on reducing the relative slope between the shaft and support bearing(s) under quasi-static conditions. However, for a more detailed evaluation of a shafting system, it is necessary to consider dynamic conditions. In this context, the results revealed that eccentric propeller force under transient conditions such as a rapid rudder turn at NCR, lead to fluid-induced instability and imbalanced vibration in the stern tube. In addition, compared with NCR condition, it has been confirmed that eccentric propeller forces given a rapid rudder starboard turn can lift a shaft from the stern tube bearing in the stern tube, contributes to load relief for the stern tube bearing.

현재 구축되어있는 방재시설의 능력은 기후위기로 인해 수용가능한 극한강우량의 범위를 넘어서고 있어 대형화된 홍수로 인한 피해가 꾸준히 발생하고 있다. 이로 인해 잠재적 홍수로 인한 도시회복도 관리와 홍수로 수반되는 피해에 대한 복구의 중요도가 높아지고 있다. 회복도는 도시의 재해 취약성, 저항, 적응, 복구, 완화에 대한 능력을 포괄하는 개념으로써 최근 주목받고 있는 개념이지만 대부분의 연구는 주로 시설에 대한 회복도 평가가 이루어지고 있다 (Sen et al.,2021). 또한 재해 후 도시복구에 관한 연구는 다수 존재하지만 복구에 따른 지역의 회복도 변화와 라이프라인과 같은 주요 시설의 복구에 따른 회복도 차이를 고려한 연구는 미비한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 도시침수 발생 후 라이프라인을 고려한 도시복구 우선순위 산정모델을 개발하고 재해관리의 효율성 향상측면에서 도시의 기능적 회복도를 평가하였다. 이를 위해 라이프라인 중 도로 복구결과의 평가를 위하여 리스크 매트릭스 기법을 이용한 도로위험도평가를 수행하였으며 도시의 회복도를 측정하였다. 회복도를 크게 홍수로부터 도시가 받은 영향과 재해복구역량으로 구성하였으며 정량적인 평가를 위해 각각 손상함수와 재해재난목적예비비를 활용하여 산정하였다. 이후 복구우선순위를 산정하였으며 복구와 도시회복도와의 관계를 분석하기 위하여 재해연보 자료를 기초로 회귀분석을 통해 복구비용을 추정하였다 (유순영 등.,2014). 시범지역에 적용한 결과 시설 및 도로 복구에 따른 도시영향의 변화보다 복구비사용으로 인한 재해복구역량의 변화가 더욱 크다는 것을 확인하였다. 이는 재해재난목적예비비의 중요성이 크다는 것을 의미하며 향후 추가적인 인문학적, 법제적 요소가 회복도에 미치는 영향을 연구한다면 도시회복도 향상 및 도시복구에 관한 정책적 의사결정에 큰 도움이 될 것이다.

This study was performed to make a comparison on low-velocity impact behavior between graphite/epoxy composite laminate and steel plate. In order to validate the proposed scheme fur the impact behavior of the plate, the Karas's impact model was used. The impact models for this comparative study are the graphite/epoxy composite plate having $[0/90/45/-45/-45/45/90/0]_{8S}$ laminate sequence and the steel plate with a steel ball impactor. The low-velocity impact behaviors for two types of plates were comparatively investigated and performed by considering different impactor velocities and weights respectively. In this investigation, it was found that the composite laminate has impact energy absorption effect due to more flexible behavior than the steel plate, and also it has better characteristics on impact damage and weight.

In this study, the impact of pile tip geometry, including shape, size, and angle, on the drivability and stress concentration during pile driving was investigated using 3D printing technology and finite element numerical analysis. A series of field loading tests were conducted on a test pile with various pile tip conditions, including width, angle, and shape. The changes in settlement were quantified as a ratio to the settlement of a conventional pile tip case and large deformation finite element analysis was used to investigate the maximum stress on a pile tip and the location of possible damage during pile driving. The results showed that by modifying the shape, size, and angle of the pile tip, the drivability of the pile could be improved and the maximum stress concentration around the pile tip could be significantly reduced, thereby ensuring the structural integrity of the pile during pile driving.

A review of literature revealed that damaged self-confidence of men as social agents may be the primary, if not proximal, cause of domestic violence. Accumulated damages in social confidence and self-assurance may be moderated by action repertoire acquired during childhood, and mediated by adulthood circumstances such as marital discords and the lack of social support to result in the typical cycle of violence and subsequent feeling of remorse. The present treatments for the domestically violent men in Korea seem to be ineffective to reduce the number of incidents in the society because the treatments are viewed as punishments by the men, damage their social confidence further by stigmatizing them in the community, and destroy their social resources and support systems. It was suggested in this paper to reduce the role of law enforcement and correctional administration to rehabilitate the currently violent men. At the same time, it was also suggested for the Korean court to implement the paradigm of Therapeutic Jurisprudence in handling domestic violence cases. It was argued that the court should take active roles as a healing and rehabilitating agent by cooperating with non-government community establishments such as hospitals, universities and self-help organizations. The reasons and implications of those suggestions were discussed in detail.
