In this study, a watershed-based surface-water and groundwater integrated model, SWAT-MODFLOW was used to evaluate streamflow depletion induced by groundwater withdrawals and irrigation reservoirs for the Juksan-cheon watershed in South Korea. The streamflow responses to groundwater pumping and irrigation reservoirs were simulated under several different scenarios. The scenarios were (1) current pumping well withdrawals with reservoirs; (2) current pumping well withdrawals without reservoirs; (3) no pumping well withdrawals with reservoirs; (4) no pumping well withdrawals without reservoirs (natural condition). The simulated results indicated that the effects of groundwater pumping on streamflow depletion are a little more significant than those of irrigation reservoirs. Particularly, the groundwater withdrawals with irrigation reservoirs at current status (scenario 1) has induced the decrease of more than 20% in drought flow against the natural condition (scenario 4) at the outlet of the watershed. The specific drought flows through the main stream of Juksan-cheon watershed were simulated in order to assess the irrigation effects on downstream flows. It was found out that the specific drought flows are increasing as the distance from the reservoir increases due to the accumulation of the return flows to stream.

연료개질기는 연료전지 시스템의 핵심 구성요소 중의 하나로 도시가스로부터 수소를 생산하는 역할을 담당한다. 연료개질기는 주로 탈황, 수증기 개질, 수성가스 전이, 선택적 산화 반응의 4단계로 구성되어 있으며 이 중 상온 탈황부분을 제외한 나머지 부분은 일체화 설계를 통해 제작된다. 탈황의 경우 도시가스에 포함된 부취제인 황화합물를 제거하여 후단에 위치한 촉매층이 황에 의해 피독되는 것을 막는 역할을 하며 주로 상온흡착식 탈황제를 사용한다. 황이 제거된 도시가스는 물과 함께 연료개질기로 도입되어 수증기 개질반응을 통하여 수소, 일산화탄소, 이산화탄소 및 소량의 메탄과 미반응 수증기로 구성된 개질가스로 전환된다. 이후의 수성가스 전이반응에서는 일산화탄소가 물과 반응하여 수소 생산량을 늘리며 동시에 일산화탄소의 농도를 낮추게 된다. 또한 고분자 전해질 연료전지에 공급되는 개질가스는 선택적 산화반응을 통하여 일산화탄소의 농도를 10ppm이하로 유지하게 된다. 이러한 기능의 연료개질기 개발의 주요 이슈로는 컴팩트화 및 고효율화이며 이 두가지 요소를 고려하여 연료개질기를 설계하여야 한다. 연료전지 시스템의 전체부피를 줄이기 위한 노력의 일환으로 연료개질기의 컴팩트화가 요구되는데 가정용 연료전지 기술 선진국인 일본 제품의 경우 $1Nm^3/h$급 연료개질기의 부피는 20L정도로 알려져 있다. 또한 연료전지 시스템의 효율은 연료개질기의 개질효율과 연료전지 스택의 발전효율의 곱으로 계산되기 때문에 연료개질기의 연료개질 효율은 전체 시스템의 효율에 직접적으로 영향을 미치게 된다. 한국에너지기술연구원에서는 수소생산량 기준 $1Nm^3/h$급 연료개질기의 개발을 완료하였으며 크기 및 효율면에서 선진국 제품과 비교하여 동등 또는 우위의 수준을 달성하였다. 연료개질기 내부의 혼합 및 분배 구조를 개선하고 각 촉매층의 최적 배치를 통해 연료개질기의 부피를 최소화 하였으며 연료개질기 내부에서 고온부위와 저온부위 사이의 최적 열교환을 통해 열효율을 극대화 시켰다. 현재 개발된 $1Nm^3/h$급 개질기의 단열 후 부피는 13.5L 그리고 단독운전 시 열효율은 80%(LHV)로 측정되었다. 또한 $1Nm^3/h$급의 연료개질기의 스케일-업 설계를 통하여 수소생산량 3, $5Nm^3/h$ 규모의 연료개질기를 개발하였으며 성능평가가 진행 중이다.

Purpose: After periodontal surgery, studies have found that the use of periodontal wound dressing reduces the risk of wound infection and increases healing. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of attachable periodontal wound dressing on the healing and patient satisfaction after periodontal flap surgery. Materials and Methods: Twenty-eight patients requiring periodontal surgery underwent periodontal flap surgery on both quadrants of maxilla or mandible. Postoperative pain, bleeding, dietary discomfort and hypersensitivity in relation to attachable periodontal wound dressing was assessed using Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). Additional survey on frequency of burning sensation and overall satisfaction rates were assessed. Results: VAS mean values for pain, bleeding, and dietary discomfort depending on the presence and absence of attachable wound dressing were; pain: 2.82, 3.96 (P = 0.002), bleeding: 1.61, 2.54 (P = 0.008), dietary discomfort: 2.82, 4.18 (P < 0.001), respectively. Test groups with attachable wound dressing reported significantly lower rates of discomfort. No significant difference was observed in burning sensation and hypersensitivity related with wound dressing. Satisfaction was higher in 75% of patients who received wound dressing. Conclusion: According to the results of this study, patients who received attachable periodontal wound dressing reported less postoperative pain, bleeding, and dietary discomfort. There was no statistical significance related to the use of wound dressing with burning sensation and hypersensitivity.

A lot of research on the stability of nonpremixed flames has focused on the fuel-nozzle and quarl geometries. Of the work carried out, only a small amount has focused on the stability of the nonpremixed flame according to the recession distance and air-nozzle geometry. Therefore, in this study, a coaxial-diffusion-type gas burner with a swirler is designed for the systematic investigation of the combustion characteristics of a $CH_4$ flame depending on the recession distance and secondary air-nozzle geometry. 1st air is flowed through the swirler, and 2nd air is flowed through each nozzle. It is shown that the secondary air velocity greatly influences the flame length and shape. There is an optimum recession distance for each nozzle for the best combustion efficiency. In this study, it is shown that the optimized recession distance is nearly half the outer diameter of the air-supply nozzle.

In general, the synthesis of poly(3-hexylthiophene)(P3HT)-based block copolymers requires at least a 4-5 step process. To control the molecular weight, molecular weight distribution, and block ratio, the reaction conversion and time should be monitored. In addition, the reaction scale usually limited to several mg to g was difficult to increase due to the limitations of living radical polymerizations. In this study, we synthesized P3HT-b-poly(4-vinylprydine) (P3HT-b-P4VP) with a final product quantity of > 19 g via a 2-step synthetic method with an anionic polymerization. In this method, the molecular weight and molecular weight distribution of P3HT-b-P4VP can be well controlled without monitoring the reaction conversion. We also studied physical properties of P3HT-b-P4VP depending on different solvent systems, which were investigated by UV-vis spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy, and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy.

It is a Known fact that driving through long tunnel increases possibility of traffic accident because of psychological feeling of insecurity and dispersion of drivers' concentration since driving in narrow and limited space for a longtime. It, therefore, results in raising transportation and environment problems, such as traffic accident difficult to be properly dealt with and ventilation. This study aims at proposing a method of augmenting driving amenity by improving the internal lighting facilities in the tunnel. The study is conducted by investigating internal landscapes of tunnels by lighting colors, which are currently being operated. The Color Planning System (CPS), developed by SHARP Co. Ltd, is exploited for selecting adjective that express the sensitivity image on lighting colors. The CPS is an example that applies to sensitivity of human body for products design development. The CPS takes the following process to define the color : 1) expressing "Pvoduct's Image" as "A Word (adjective)" and 2) referring "A Word" to "Image Scale", and 3) determining the color through this "Image Panel". The study is processed by making a questionnaire using the semantic differential (SD) scale, grasping the consciousness structure of experimental persons through the Factor Analysis, and building a model in which dependent variable is "Degree of Preference" about internal landscape in tunnel using LISREL(LInear Structural RELations).

Interest points are generally located at the pixels where height changes occur. So, interest points can be the significant pixels for DSM generation, and these have the important role to generate accurate and reliable matching results. Manual operation is widely used to extract the interest points and to match stereo satellite images using these for generating height information, but it causes economic and time consuming problems. Thus, a tie point extraction method using Harris-affine technique and SIFT(Scale Invariant Feature Transform) descriptors was suggested to analyze height information of buildings in this study. Interest points on buildings were extracted by Harris-affine technique, and tie points were collected efficiently by SIFT descriptors, which is invariant for scale. Searching window for each interest points was used, and direction of tie points pairs were considered for more efficient tie point extraction method. Tie point pairs estimated by proposed method was used to analyze height information of buildings. The result had RMSE values less than 2m comparing to the height information estimated by manual method.

The concern on new regional geography in Korea has emerged in the 1990s under the influence of paradigm shift of Western geography, that is, the withering of positivist geography and the introduction of grand social theories into geography. New regional geography in Korea also seems to have developed in the rapidly changing process of glocalization of capitalism which has accompanied with the transformation toward post-Fordism with high-tech innovation, development of transportation and communication technology with time-space compression, and increasing social and cultural mobility with change of identity. But it can be pointed out that discussion on methodology for regional geography in Korea has been shrunken since the mid 2000s, and there has been relatively little empirical research with synthetic approach to region. But more concern on methodology in terms of place, territory, network, scale, etc. rather than the concept of region itself has increased, and empirical researches on regions in specific fields of human geography have been promoted. It is argued that the traditional distinction between synthetic and analytic approaches seems no longer significant. But geographers need to extend the concept of region in relation to other diverse spatial concepts, and to purse simultaneously structural analysis on glocalization process and practical strategies responding positively to the process.

This article focuses on geo-institutional differentiation and a multi-scalar analysis of emerging capitalist development in Laos. It discusses the impact of the Greater Mekong Subregion on new institutional economic and economic geographical arrangements. It demonstrates the usefulness of the varieties of Asian capitalism approach. The rubber industry was chosen to unravel emerging but various sub-national institutional arrangements linked to higher scale levels. Rubber is a growing agribusiness industry throughout the country, led by the insatiable demand from China. Overall, this study shows that the capitalist development of the rubber industry features much geo-institutional differentiation, due to the different strategies of Chinese, Thai and Vietnamese investors. Since Laos is still in transition from a state-led economy to something else, it is impossible at this to identify the exact number capitalisms. Yet, the evidence on rubber clearly lays bare the presence of multiple institutional arrangements. Without more inclusiveness, however, the implications for regional development are worrying. Exclusive arrangements will most likely lead to more uneven regional development and higher regional inequality. To refine theories on sub-national varieties of capitalism in developing countries it is instructive to consider more explicitly the notion of regional personal capitalisms and the complex interplay between national and regional states and relationships between capital accumulation and livelihood analyses.
