This study investigated the possibility of DNA contamination during fingerprint collection when using a fingerprint brush. Two kinds of brushes were selected: powdered brushes and neat (not powdered) brushes. The fingerprints were collected from the tips of all the fingers and near the wrists of both living and deceased persons using the two brushes. Both brushes were analyzed for the DNA contents and profiles. The results obtained confirmed the transfer of DNA onto both brushes, although the results showed that the powdered brushes carried more DNA compared with the neat brushes. More DNA was transferred onto the brushes used on deceased persons than onto the brushes used for living persons. Only partial DNA profiles were obtained from the brushes, which is due to the presence of other sources of DNA on the surfaces of the skin of both living and deceased persons. This phenomenon confirmed the DNA contamination during fingerprint collection when fingerprint brushes were used.

본 연구는 수분최대화방법(Moisture-maximizing method)를 기반으로 PMP(Probable Maximum Precipitation)을 산정하는 방법론을 평가하는 것을 목적으로 수행되었다. 수분최대화 방법은 특정 호우사상의 대기 수분 조건을 극대화하여 PMP 를 산정한다. 여기서, 대기 수분 조건은 대기 표면부터 상층부의 총 수분량으로부터 얻어지는 가강수량(Precipitable water, PW)으로 표현된다. PW 는 라디오존데로부터 직접 관측 및 수집되지만, 장기간 수집이 어렵고, 수집된 자료는 다수의 이상치 및 결측치를 포함한다. 이에 따라, WMO(World Meteorological Organization)에서는 표면 이슬점을 이용하여 위단열 가정(Pseudo-adiabatic assumption)하에PW 를 간접적으로 산정하는 방법론을 기반한 PMP 산정을 권고한다. 본 연구는 일본의 다수의 지역을 대상으로 실제 PW 를 이용하는 방법과 표면 이슬점을 이용하는 방법을 기반으로 산정된 수분최대화방법의 변수들의 편차를 분석하였다. 그 결과, 따듯한 기후 특성을 나타내는 일본의 남부지역은 두 방법의 편차가 매우 작았지만, 추운 기후 특성을 나타내는 일본의 북부지역은 표면 이슬점으로 산정된 PW 가 실제 PW 에 비해 과소 산정되어 PMP 를 과대 산정시켰다. 특히, 이불확실성은 호우 발생 시 표면 이슬점이 18℃ 이하일 때, 두드러지게 나타났다. 본 연구는 이불확실성을 밝히기 위해 실제 라디오존데로부터 관측된 대기 상층부의 대기 프로파일 검토하였다. 그 결과, 표면에서 가까운 대기 상층부의 위치에서 불규칙적으로 이슬점이 증가하는 패턴을 나타냈지만, 위단열 가정은 이를 묘사하기 어려웠다. 이는 결국 실제 PW 에 비해 이슬점을 이용하여 산정된 PW 가 과소 산정되는 결과로 이어졌다. 결과적으로, 호우 발생 시 표면 이슬점이 18℃ 이하로 낮은 지역에서 산정된 PW 를 적용하는 수분최대화방법으로 산정된 PMP 는 낮은 신뢰도를 나타낸다.

The present study evaluate the chloride extracion under electrochemical chloride extraction method. Chloride was penetrated into the concrete from external reservoir using a 4M NaCl solution, and an electrochemical chloride extraction method was applied after the curing period of 1 year. The current density was constantly kept 1000 mA/m² for coulostatic application with the variation in potential difference. The duration of the ECE treatment was 2, 4, 8 weeks, respectively. The residual chloride concentration at all depths decreased, and the chloride concentration decreased as the application period increased. After the application period of 8 weeks, 62.9 to 77.6 % of chloride extracted in the total chloride profile, and 77.7 to 99.5 % of chloride extracted in the free chloride profile. In particular, the concentration of free chloride at a depth of 7 mm or more from the concrete surface was 0.01 % or less by cement. In addition, it was confirmed that the bound chloride could be extracted by the electrochemical chloride extraction.

Silicon trench etching has been carried out using a magnetically enhanced reactive ion etching system in HBr plasma containing He-$O_2$, $CF_4$. The changes of etch rate and etch profile, the degree of residue formation, and the change of surface chemical state were investigated as a function of additive gas flow rate. A severe lateral etching was observed when pure HBr plasma was used to etch the silicon, resulted in a pot shaped trench. When He-$O_2$, $SiF_4$ additives were added to HBr plasma, the lateral etching was almost eliminated and a better trench etch profile was obtained. The surface etched in HBr/He-$O_2/SiF_4$ plasma showed relatively low contamination and residue elements compared to the surface etched in HBr/He-$O-2/CF_4$plasma. In addition, the etching characteristics including low residue formation and chemically clean etched surface were obtained by using HBr containing He-$O_2$ or $SiF_4$ additive gases instead of $CF_4$ gas, which were confirmed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM).

BSF 후면전계효과는 태양전지의 개방전압 증가를 결정하며 효율에 매우 중요한 요인이다. 본 연구에서는 p-type에서의 후면전계효과를 확인하기 위해 PC1D 시뮬레이션(Simulation)을 통해 p+ 영역의 표면농도와 깊이에 따른 전기적 특성을 분석 하였다. 최적효율을 찾기위해 면저항을 $30{\Omega}/{\square}$으로 고정하고 깊이와 표면 농도값을 가변하였다. 최적화 결과 표면농도값이 작아지고 깊이가 커질수록 효율이 좋아지는 경향이 나타났으며 Peak doping=$5{\times}10^{18}cm^{-3}$, Juction depth=12.52um에서 최고효율 19.14%를 얻을 수 있었다. 본 시뮬레이션을 바탕으로 실제 태양전지 제작 과정에 적용 가능하다. p-type 태양전지 제작에서 후면의 p+ 영역의 깊이를 증가시키고, 표면 농도를 낮추는 공정을 통해 효율향상을 기대 할 수 있다.

As both laboratory accelerated experiment and field exposure experiment were performed, at recent, the fifth field test at five year exposures was proceeded according to long period experimental plan. Field experiment, for the adoption of the developed evaluation model, which is consisted of the analysis of chloride penetration profile at gate bridges of sea-dike completed 30 years ago was carried out during upgrading the basic evaluation model with analyzing the annual field test data. The surface concentration of chlorides was replaced to the concentration of chloride of inner concrete near the surface chlorides among his research results at basic model. Maage's suggestion function was accepted too as a diffusion coefficient of chloride after verifying the change of diffusion coefficient by analysis of annual field test data. The comparison of field data with model predictions and the estimation of remaining life time demonstrates that the proposed updated model and maintenance simulation system can be used to predict the chloride penetration profile in the marine tidal zone and appropriate repair period and cost.

The spectral-analysis-of-surface-waves (SASW) method is a nondestructive testing method based upon generation and detection of elastic stress waves. SASW is widely used as one of the techniques to determine stiffness profile in engineering geophysics. The essential steps involved are construction of an experimental dispersion curve from data collected in situ, and inversion of the dispersion curve to determine the stiffness profile. The main object of this study is to derive an analytical Jacobian for the inversion. If we set the subsurface to N homogeneous layer, it could save 2N times Jacobian calculation compared to numerical jacobian calculation during inversion. To reconstruct a stiffness profile, constrained damped least square method was applied for the inversion. The algorithm was tested for the numerical data and for the real asphalt and tunnel data, which were able to verify the stiffness profile. The stiffness profile reconstructed by the algorithm showed the possibility to appraise the soundness of tunnel with applications SASW.

Laser surface hardening process is the method of hardening surface by inducing rapid self quenching of laser injected area through transfer of surface heat to inside after rapid heating of laser injected area only by high density energy heat source. This surface treatment method does not involve virtually any thermal deformation by heat treatment nor accompanies any other process after surface hardening treatment. In addition, allowing local machining, this method is a surface treatment method suitable for die with complicated shape. In this study, die material cast iron was surface-treated by using high power diode laser with beam profile suitable for heat treatment. Since the shapes of die differ by press die process, specimens were heat-treated separately on plane and corner depending on the applied parts. At this time, corner heat treatment was done with optic head inclined at $10^{\circ}$. As a result, corner heat treatment easily involves concentration of heat input due to limitation of heat transfer route by the shapes compared with plane part, so the treatment accomplished hardening at faster conveying speed than plane heat treatment.

The surface management of metals was performed with a tool microscope or surface roughness measurement instruments. These methods were not efficient for checking the surface status of the die in the production field. For this reason, an analysis system or measurement system to monitor the wear, defects and surface status as a die ages is required. This study, developed surface analysis software for automatic analysis and standardization of a die or processed products. Software was designed to measure the basic features, such as circles, dots, and lines. The captured images were rendered as three-dimensional representations so that the depth of the grooves on the die and segmental profiles could be estimated. As a result of experimental analysis, the surface roughness was measured with an accuracy more than 93.2%, and the maximum deviation in the surface roughness for the brightness of the lighting was within $3{\mu}m$. The confidence in the device's precision was assured. These results show quality control through efficient surface analysis.
