  • 미세플라스틱은 5 mm 이하의 작은 플라스틱 입자를 말하며, 그 축적에 따른 환경적 문제가 커지면서 현재 심각한 사회문제가 되고 있다. 미세플라스틱은 해양으로 유입되어 해양생물계의 내분비계 교란물질로 작용하며 생태계를 교란시키고 종국에는 먹이사슬의 끝인 인류에게 큰 위험으로 다가오고 있다. 미세플라스틱에 대한 사회적 이슈가 높아지고 있는 현 시점에서 이들 문제점을 제대로 인식하고 해결방안을 모색할 필요성이 있다. 본 총설에서는 미세플라스틱의 현황과 해양생태계와 인체에 미치는 영향 그리고 미세플라스틱 검출법과 제거를 위한 정책과 연구 동향에 대해서 논의하고자 한다.

  • The KISTI (Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information) began to produce the Korean human information called Visible Korean and Digital Korean since 2000 because there was no human information in Korea which could represent the physical characteristics of Korean human body. The Visible Korean consists of CT, MR, sectioned and segmented images of Korean human body. We obtained the serially sectioned images by grinding the Korean cadaver in horizontal direction and segmented these images by outlining the inner organs of human. We have produced the sectioned images of Korean male whole body, male head, and female pelvis in2008. The segmentation and 3D reconstruction of these images are now in proceeding. The Digital Korean consists of CT images of about 100 Korean cadavers. These CT images were segmented by individual bone, reconstructed to produce the 3D bone models and the skin surface model was also added. The mechanical properties of individual bones were obtained by measuring the property of individual bone sample. We have distributed these Korean human informations to users in domestic and abroad. About 70 institutes in domestic, and 20 institutes in abroad have used our data in research use and nearly 160 proceedings and articles were published since 2001. We think these human informations have a role of medical information infrastructure that could be used in the field of medical education, biomechanics, virtual reality etc.

  • Recently, research to classify human activity using imagery has been actively conducted for the purpose of crime prevention and facility safety in public places and facilities. In order to improve the performance of human activity classification, most studies have applied deep learning based-transfer learning. However, despite the increase in the number of backbone network models that are the basis of deep learning as well as the diversification of architectures, research on finding a backbone network model suitable for the purpose of operation is insufficient due to the atmosphere of using a certain model. Thus, this study applies the transfer learning into recently developed deep learning backborn network models to build an intelligent system that classifies human activity using imagery. For this, 12 types of active and high-contact human activities based on sports, not basic human behaviors, were determined and 7,200 images were collected. After 20 epochs of transfer learning were equally applied to five backbone network models, we quantitatively analyzed them to find the best backbone network model for human activity classification in terms of learning process and resultant performance. As a result, XceptionNet model demonstrated 0.99 and 0.91 in training and validation accuracy, 0.96 and 0.91 in Top 2 accuracy and average precision, 1,566 sec in train process time and 260.4MB in model memory size. It was confirmed that the performance of XceptionNet was higher than that of other models.

  • Prunus mume Sieb. et Zucc is distributed throughout Asia and has traditionally been used as medicine and food. P. mume is known to contain large amounts of various organic acids, minerals, and phenol components. To date, the trend of P. mume research has focused only on the effects of antioxidant, anticancer and antibacterial, with only a few studies have focused on angiogenesis. Angiogenesis is a common characteristic of metastatic cancer through which oxygen and nutrients are delivered to the cells and tissues. In the present study, angiogenesis-inhibiting activity was investigated by evaluating the total polyphenol and flavonoid contents of the P. mume butanol fraction (PBF) and their ability to inhibit VEGF-induced human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) proliferation, migration, invasion, and capillary formation. The polyphenols (12.81 mg GAE/g) and flavonoids (28.4 mg QE/g) of the PBF exhibited high antioxidant activity. The results of this study showed that PBF did not inhibit the proliferation of HUVECs at concentrations of 25-200 ㎍/ml and did not exhibit toxicity to normal cells. However, PBF inhibited the VEGF-induced mobility, invasion, and capillary formation of HUVECs. These results show that PBF inhibits the angiogenesis of HUVECs induced by VEGF. Therefore, PBF could serve as a therapeutic agent for the inhibition of angiogenesis.

  • Hydrofluoric acid is a less acidic substance than hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, and sulfuric acid, but it is one of the most dangerous substances for humans. In recent years, it has become an indispensable substance in industries such as chemical plants and the semiconductor industry, and although it is a threat to the human body, its use is increasing for various purposes, and the amount of use is constantly increasing due to the expansion and development of the industry. The dangers of hydrogen fluoride have been highlighted since the 2012 accident, which led to a more than fivefold increase in management standards for handling facilities. Hydrogen fluoride converts to hydrofluoric acid when exposed to the air, which can be fatal to humans. This study simulates the effects of a release of a toxic substance in the workplace, even though a protection layer has been provided to minimize the damage caused by the released toxic substance, and recommend ways to control the risk to workers in the event of a release in the workplace.

  • With the development of themal observatory device(TOD), thermal camouflage system has been applied not only to the weapon system but also to the combat suit for soldiers. In this paper, the characteristic of thermal radiation of human body depending on the clothing material properties was analyzed through numerical simulations. The bioheat equation with thermoregulatory model was solved to obtain the realistic surface temperature of human body and these results are combined with the emissivity of human skin and clothing in order to calculate the thermal signature from the human body. According to each thermal resistance of clothing, the optimal background radiance which makes contrast radiance intensity(CRI) be lowest is different. Also, the average CRI variation per thermal resistance change is about twice as much as the case of evaporative resistance change.
