This study was performed to observe the bacterial adhesion and penetration to e-PTFE membrane following guided tissue regeneration(GTR) procedure and to evaluate the association of the membrane exposure and bacterial contamination with the clinical outcome. For the study, ten infrabony defects in 9 patient were treated by mucoperiosteal flap operation including placement of the e-PTFE membrane. The treated teeth were monitored weekly for the membrane exposure, gingival recession and gingival inflammation. The membranes were retrieved after 4 to 6 weeks, examined by SEM for bacterial contamination and adherent connective tisue elements, and observed under LM for the bacterial penetration into membrane. Three months postsurgery, the defect sites were clinically reexamined for the changes in attachment level and probing depth. Comparison of the ultrastuctural findings and clinical outcome revealed that extent of membrane exposure and bacterial contamination of the membrane was inversely associated with clinical attachment gain. From this finding, the extent of membrane exposure and the bacterial contamination on the apical portion of the e-PTFE membrane at the time of removal seemed to be a critical determinant on the clinical outcome of GTR and the membrane exposure needs to be controlled for optimal results.

Temporal change of a warm eddy off Sogcho was studied using satellite infrared images from January to lune 1992 and its structure was investigated by the observations in Hay. There were two kinds of event for eddy formation. IR images in January indicated that the eddy Haying a horizontal dimension of about 200km was first formed by an injection of warm water. After some deformation and cooling processes the second restrengthening event took place in late March when a warm filament began to penetrate northward and circumvented the preexisting eddy. This eddy became a complete ring-shape with cooled water arrested inside from April to May. The maximum thickness of the isothermal subsurface layer with temperature of $10.0-10.4^{\circ}C$ was about 170m. Except that the current velocity was about 80cm/sec near the axis of the last Korea Warm Current close to Sogcho, the interior of the eddy had an anticyclonic motion with overall swirl velocity of 30-50cm/sec. Velocity rapidly decreased vertically below the main thermocline.

This study presents a systematic framework to derive the best values of design and planning parameters for low impact development (LID) practices. LID was developed to rehabilitate the distorted hydrological cycle due to the rapid urbanization. This study uses Water Management Analysis Module (WMAM) to perform sensitivity analysis and multiple scenario analysis for LID design and planning parameters of Storm Water Management Model (SWMM). This procedure was applied to an urban watershed which have experienced rapid urbanization in recent years. As a result, the design and planning scenario derived by WMAM shows lower total flows and peak flow, and larger infiltration than arbitrary scenarios for LID design and planning parameters. In the future, economic analysis can be added for this application in the field.

The development projects distort the natural water circulation system and increase the non-point source pollution by changing the natural cover type. The low impact development (LID) techniques are considering as new development approach to decrease the ecological- and hydrological impacts from high imperviousness rate. The high imperviousness rate is because of the construction of building, parking lot and road for human activities. Knowing the basic characteristics of rood runoff can give the direction for setting up the water management strategy. The monitoring results show the pollutant EMCs of roof runoff are 3~13 times lower than EMCs of the road and parking lot. The pollutant sources from roof runoff are mainly from leafs, cigarette butts, atmospheric deposition and materials of the roof. The EMC is occurred around 15minutes later after starting runoff and more than 8 storm events are needed to have the average EMCs.

산화물 사용후핵연료를 대상으로 하는 파이로 공정은 고온 용융염 매질에서 산화물을 금속으로 전환시키는 전해환원 공정으로부터 시작된다. 이후, 전해정련 공정이 도입되어 전해환원 공정에서 금속으로 환원된 생성물을 처리하게 된다. 전기화학적 공정인 이 두 공정에는 전류전달 매질인 전해질로 용융염이 사용된다. 그러나 전해환원 공정은 LiCl 염을 기반으로 하는 반면 전해정련은 LiCl-KCl 공융염 조건에서 운전하여 두 공정의 연계성 향상 및 공정 안정성 확보를 위해서는 전해환원 공정에서 생성되는 금속전환체에 존재하는 잔류염을 제거하는 공정의 도입이 두 공정사이에 고려되고 있다. 전해환원 공정에서 산화물이 금속으로 환원되는 동안 고체입자의 외형이 유지되며 따라서 제거된 산소에 의해 금속전환체에는 공극이 발생하게 된다. 또한, 전해환원에 도입되는 산화물의 물리적 형태가 분말 또는 펠렛 등 다양한 형태로 도입 가능하여 단위 입자들 사이에 많은 공극이 발생하게 된다. 이렇게 기존재하거나 또는 공정 운전에 의해 새롭게 생성된 공극에는 전해환원 매질인 LiCl 염이 침투하여 금속전환체는 염에 의해 젖게 되며 공정 종료시 고화되어 금속전환체에 포함된다. LiCl을 제거하기 위해서는 가열에 의한 증류가 연구되고 있다. 그러나 LiCl의 낮은 증기압에 의해 비교적 낮은 온도에서 증발시키기 위해서는 감압조건이 필수적으로 고려되어야 한다. 한국원자력연구원에서는 다공성 모의 금속전환체를 사용하여 LiCl에 의한 Wetting 후 적절한 증발 조건 결정을 목적으로 온도 및 압력 조건 설정을 위한 기초실험에 결과를 수행하였다. 본 연구의 기초 실험 결과 $700^{\circ}C$온도 조건과 감압조건이 잔류염 제거를 위한 공정조건임을 밝혔다. 또한 모의 금속전환체를 담고 있는 미세 다공성 Basket은 고온조건에서 공극의 변형에 의해 증발에 대한 저항으로 작용하여 증발 효율을 저하시키는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 잔류염 제거를 위해서는 전해환원 Basket이 비교적 큰 공극을 지녀야 할 것으로 판단된다.

The barrier membranes for GTR procedure could be affected bY bacterial contamination after exposure to oral environment. This study was done to evaluate whether the tetracycline impregnated barrier membranes could inhibit bacterial attachment and penetration into membranes. The resorbable membrane(polylactic and polyglycolide copolymer, $Resolute^{(R)}$, W.L Gore and Associates, Inc..USA) and the non-resorbable membrane(e-PTFE; Gore-TexTM, W.L. Gore & Associates, Inc.,USA) were cut into 4mm discs and trated with 5% tridodecylmethylammonium chloride solution in ethanol and dried in air. The membranes were immersed in tetracycline(TC) solution (100mg/ml, pH 8.0) and dried. To the maxillary canine-premolar region in six periodontally healthy volunteers, removable acrylic devices were inserted, on which 8 cylindrical chambers were glued with TC impregnated and non-impregnated discs, the membrane discs were examined for bacterial attachment and penetration, and structural changes under SEM and LM. From the 1st day to the 7th day, membranes showed bacterial plaque formation composed of cocci and rods. Thereafter, filamentous bacteria appeared and the plaque thickness increased. The TC impregnated e-PTFE membranes showed less bacterial attachment and delayed in bacterial plaque maturation than non-treated membranes. As for bacterial penetration, the TC impregnated e-PTFE membranes showed superficial invasion and infrequent presence of bacteria in unexposed inner surface at the 4th week. while the non-treated e-PTFE membranes showed deep bacterial invasion at the 2nd week and frequent presence of internal bacteria at the 4th week. The resorbable membranes started to be resorbed at the 2nd week and were perforated at the 4th week, regardless of TC treatment. In conclusion, bacterial plaque formation and penetration was efficiently delayed in TC impregnated e-PTFE membranes, whereas resorbable membranes were similar in bacterial invasion due to membrane degradation and perforation, regardless of TC treatment.

플라즈마 전해 산화법(Plasma electrolytic oxidation)에 의해 형성된 코팅층은 특유의 기공구조로 인해 부식 환경에 노출 시 부식액의 침투가 급속히 이루어지는 단점이 있다. 이를 극복하기 위한 방법으로 유기코팅, sol-gel법, 폴리머 코팅 등에 의해 기공을 봉공(sealing)하는 방법이 제안되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 Al 합금의 플라즈마 전해 산화 처리 후 질산 세륨 수용액(Cerium nitrate solution)에 의한 봉공 효과를 확인하고자 하였다. PEO 코팅을 위한 전해액은 2g/L의 KOH와 $2g/L\;Na_2SiO_3$를 증류수에 용해시켜 준비하였다. PEO 코팅층은 Al 시편을 전해액 내에 위치시켜 양극으로 하고 STS를 음극으로 하여 $0.1A/cm^2$의 펄스 정전류밀도(주파수: 100Hz, 듀티비: 20%)를 15분 동안 인가하여 형성시켰다. 봉공을 위한 실링액은 증류수에 $0.3g/L\;H_2O_2$와 $1g/L\;H_3BO_3$를 첨가하고, $Ce(NO_3)_3$를 농도 변수로 첨가하여 준비하였으며, PEO 코팅 처리된 시편을 실링액에 침지하여 실링액의 농도와 침지시간을 달리하여 봉공을 실시하였다. 제작된 PEO 코팅층에 대해 SEM, EDS, XRD를 이용한 표면분석을 실시하였으며, 내식성을 확인하고자 동전위분극시험을 실시하였다. 연구 결과, 세륨 실링 처리된 PEO 코팅 층에서 미량의 세륨 성분이 검출되었으나, 세륨계 화합물 생성에 의한 마이크로 크기의 기공의 폐쇄는 관찰되지 않았다. 또한, 전기화학적 특성 평가 결과 실링 처리된 PEO 코팅층의 경우 Al 모재에 비해 2차수 정도 감소된 부식전류밀도를 나타내었다. 이 같은 내식성의 향상은 세륨 성분에 의한 부식 억제 효과 때문으로 판단된다.

This study was conducted to investigate the differences of textural characteristics and microstructure of sugared chestnuts between heated by a heater and microwave. Raw chestnuts were boiled and infiltrated the sugar in sugar syrup by heating. The content of WSP (water soluble pectin) was increased, but HSP (hydrochloric acid soluble pectin) was decreased by boiling and sugaring. This change was remarkable when it was boiled and sugared by a microwave heating. The hardness, gumminess and chewiness were more decreased in the sugared chestnut boiled and sugared with a microwave than that processed with a heater. Microstructure of sugared chestnut processed with a microwave heating showed the distruction of cell wall.

This study is to prove the efficiency of geo-synthetics on the crushed stone layer by experiments. The strength of PET mat as reinforcing soft ground was verified through the loading experiments. Also, PP mat was used to protect the blockage of crushed stone layer by the filled soil, whose efficiency was examined according to loading and infiltration conditions. The crushed stones were penetrated into clay layer if the PET mat was removed, which was verified by loading experiments. In addition, the cohesioness of soil without PP mat made the blockage of stone layer easily, which reduced the infiltration capacity by about 98%.

Electric utilities may face new threats with increase in electric vehicles (EVs) in the personal automobile market. The peak demand will increase which may stress the distribution network equipment. The focus of this paper is on an adaptive control of smart household appliances by using an intelligent load management system (ILMS). The main objectives are to accomplish consumer needs and prevent overloading of power grid. The stress from the network is released by limiting the peak demand of a house when it exceeds a certain point. In the proposed strategy, for each smart appliance, the customers will set its order/rank according to their own preferences and then system will control the household loads intelligently for consumer reliability. The load order can be changed at any time by the customer. The difference between the set and actual value for each load's specific parameter will help the utility to estimate the acceptance of this intelligent load management system by the customers.
