Lead bas been found in the groundwater in Door County, Wiscorsin, with temporally and spatially irregular distribution in concentration. Correlation coeffidents were calculated among lead indicators in groundwater(frequency of lead detections, mean and maximum concentration of lead detections) and seven independent variables(stucture and geographic factors of wells, hydrogeological factors at lead-arsenate mixing sites and the level of soil contamination) which are possibly related to the lead level in groundwater. The significance of relationships was determined statistically by a t-test at the 90% confidence level, and indicated that the spatially located lead-arsenate mixing sites provided the lead in groundwater in the study area. A total of 112 groundwater samples were collected from 5 house wells with previous lead detects. Lead was detected in partides on ifiter papers with $0.45{\;}\mu\textrm{m}$ pore size, but not in filtrates. The result of chemical analysis for lead indicates that lead is associated with partides in groundwater in Door County. Subsequently, the irregular distribution of lead in the county results from the transport of particulate lead along the advective groundwater movement through the preferential pathways sucn as vertical and bedding-plane joints.

ZnO 바리스터는 인가되는 전압에 따라 저항이 변하는 전압 의존형 저항체이며 각종 전기 전자 정보통신용 제품에 정전기(ESD) 대책용 소자로 폭 넓게 사용되는 전자 세라믹스 부품이다. 특별히 Bi-based ZnO 바리스터는 다양한 상(phase)으로 구성되어 있으며 그 입계의 전기적 특성은 소량 첨가되는 dopant의 종류에 따라 다양하게 변하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 Bi-based ZnO 바리스터 (ZnO-$Bi_2O_3$, ZnO-$Bi_2O_3-Mn_3O_4$)에서 각종 유전함수$(Z^*,M^*,\varepsilon^*,Y^*,tan{\delta})$를 이용하여 입계의 주파수-온도에 대한 특성을 살펴 보았다. 일반적인 ZnO 바리스터 제조법으로 시편을 제작하여 78K~800K 온도 범위에서 각종 유전함수를 이용하여 복소 평면도(complex plane plot)와 주파수 응답도(frequency explicit plot)의 방법으로 defect level과 입계 특성(활성화 에너지, 정전용량, 저항, 입계 안정성 등)에 대하여 고찰하였다. ZnO-$Bi_2O_3$(ZB)계와 ZnO-$Bi_2O_3-Mn_3O_4$(ZBM)계 모두 상온 이하의 온도에서 $Zn_i$와 $V_o$의 결함이 나타났으며, 이들의 결함 준위는 각 유전함수에 따라 다소 차이가 났다. 입계 특성으로 ZB계는 이상구간(560~660K)을 전후로 1.15 eV $\rightarrow$ 1.49 eV의 활성화 에너지의 변화가 나타났지만, ZBM계는 이러한 현상이 나타나지 않았다. 또한 입계 전위 장벽의 온도 안정성에 대해서는 Cole-Cole model을 적용하여 분포 파라미터 (distribution parameter; $\alpha$)를 구하여 고찰하였다. ZB계의 입계 안정성은 온도에 따라 불안정해 졌지만, ZBM계는 안정하였다.

A dynamic analysis of a horseshoe_shaped tunnel near to cavity was performed to study the effect of the cavity on the dynamic behavior of the tunnel. In order to obtain the dynamic response of the tunnel embedded in a semi-infinite domain, a hybrid numerical technique was primarily developed. A dynamic fundamental solution in frequency domain for multi-layered half planes was derived and subsequently incorporated in the boundary element method. Coupling of the boundary element method for the far field with the finite element method for the near field is made by imposing compatibility condition of a displacement at the interface. The boundary element method is then coupled with the finite element method, which is utilized to model the near field including the tunnel and the cavity. In order to demonstrate the validity of the proposed technique, dynamic responses of single and multiply-layered semi-infinite structural systems are obtained by using the Kicker waveform and investigated in the limestone layer to find how the being and the location of the cavity affect the dynamic characteristics of the system.

A multi-ray model has been used to interpret radio transmission losses in half-canyon structures with slope and to formulate a multi-ray propagation model depending on the angle of slopes. The cut-off angles for the third and fourth paths, which are the slope-sided reflection paths of the transmission and reception radio waves determined by the inclined angles of the slope, were calculated with the height and location of the transmitter and receiver. To predict transmission losses in an inclined plane environment, the embankment environment where the actual slope exists was modeled and simulated to calculate the loss of propagation transmission, and the radio wave transmission loss was confirmed by the measurement for the frequency band 1 to 6 GHz. Simulation results and measurement results showed similar trends in radio transmission loss, and radio transmission loss predictions and measurement results for various terrain information can be used in the design of radio propagation service.

The recently developed BEM-based NAH(nearfield acoustical holography) is a useful technique for identifying the sound source of vibrating objects. The acoustic parameters of a sound source can be reconstructed by using the vibro-acoustic transfer matrix, which is determined by means of BEM, and the sound pressure measured in the nearfield. Theoretically, one can come up with a very nice reconstructed result as the field plane gets near to the source surface. However, when a microphone is placed in the very close nearfield of the source surface, the scattering, reflection, or resonance in the gap between the source and the microphone can distort the acoustic field, and therefore, the measured field pressure would differ from the actual one in the absence of the microphone. In order to analyze this problem, the interference effect of the microphone is numerically calculated by using the nonsingular BEM that yields very small error in the nearfield. From this analysis, it is found that the prediction error of the field pressure decreases firstly and then increases as the microphone approaches the vibrating surface from the farfield to the close nearfield. It is noted that the microphone should be separated from the source surface by at least a diameter of the microphone for an error ratio less than 2% in the low frequency range less than about 2.7kHz. This means that if one wants to put a microphone in the very close nearfield. a microphone with small diameter should be used.

An ultra-precise infrared microscope consisting of a high-resolution infrared objective lens and infrared sensors is utilized successfully to obtain location information on the plane and depth of local heat sources causing defects in a semiconductor device. In this study, multi-layer semiconductor chips are analyzed for the positional information of heat sources by using a lock-in infrared microscope. Optimal conditions such as focal position, integration time, current and lock-in frequency for measuring the accurate depth of the heat sources are studied by lock-in thermography. The location indicated by the results of the depth estimate, according to the change in distance between the infrared objective lens and the specimen is analyzed under these optimal conditions.

The two major objectives of acoustical measurements in a cavitation tunnel are measuring the noise levels generated by rotating propellers behind a hull and localizing possible noise sources in order to reduce noise levels. Propeller noise measurement experiments were performed in MOERI cavitation tunnel at December, 2006. In order to put the propeller into cavitating conditions, a wake-generating dummy body was devised. In addition, ten hydrophones are put inside a wing-shaped casing in order to minimize the unexpected flow induced self noise around hydrophone itself. After measuring both of the noises of the rotating propeller behind the dummy body and signals generated by a virtual source, respectively the data were matched field processed using the frequency incoherent Bartlett processor to localize noises on the propeller plane. In this paper, we presented the measured noise analysis and the localization results.

A statistical analysis on the cardiothoracic ratio in insurance medicine was carried out for 5,200 insured persons who were medically examined including photofluorography of the chest at the Honam medical department, Dong Bang life insurance Company, Ltd from November, 1979 to August, 1984. The results were as follows: 1. The mean value of the cardiothoracic ratio in all of the insured was $44.2{\pm}4.3%$. The mean value of the cardiothoracic ratio was $43.1{\pm}4.1%$ in all males and $45.2{\pm}4.2%$ in all females, and the difference of the values between males and females showed statistical significance(P<0.001). In each age group, the mean value of the cardiothoracic ratios of female was higher than that of male without exception and the difference of the values between males and females showed statistical significance(P<0.001). The mean value of the cardiothoracic ratio showed gradual increase with age from the second to sixth decade in male(P<0.05 or 0.001 after fourth decade) and from the second to seventh decade in female(P<0.05 or 0.001 from the second to sixth decade). 2. Correlation between both sexes and among age groups relating to the cardiothoracic ratios of the insureds seen to be a physiological phenomenon of the cardiac size and should be considered on the rating of the cardiothoracic ratio. Based on the correlation above mentioned and an author's assumption that the incidence of normal and abnormal cardiothoracic ratios in each age group would show the same rate in male and female, author prepared a modified rating table from the existing table; in male group the existing rating table is used and in female group the ratings of 0, 30-50, 50-100 and 100-D are to calculate by the cardiothoracic ratio of 51%or under, 52-56%, 57-61% and 62% or over respectively in the age group below 39, by the cardiothoracic ratio of 52% or under, 53-57%, 58%-62% and 63% or over respectively in the age group of 40-49, by the cardiothoracic ratio of 53% or under, 54-58%, 59-63% and 64% or over respectively in the age group over 60. 3. The relative frequency distribution polygons of the cardiothoracic ratio of both sexes drawn in a pair on one coordinate plane revealed lying in juxtaposition each other horizontally and showed the shifting of females polygon to male's one toward the direction of greater value of the cardiothoracic ratio at a short distance which increased gradually with age. 4. The minimum cardiothoracic ratio was 31.2% and the maximum cardiothoracic ratio was 63.6% in all of the insured. 5. In each age group, no significant sex difference was found in the relative frequency distribution of ratings by the cardiothoracic ratios of 5,200 insureds by using the rating table modified by author, while significant sex difference was found by using the existing rating table.

In this paper, a broadband planar monopole antenna for multi-band services is proposed. The physical size of the proposed antenna is miniaturized by folding a rectangular loop. And a resonance point in the 3.9 GHz band is reduced by a coupling phenomenon with the central part of the T-shaped patch and the folded rectangular loop. In addition, the T-shaped patch is inserted to the rectangular shaped monopole antenna due to deriving the broadband frequency characteristics. The frequency characteristic is optimized by adjusting the gap and length of the folded rectangular loops and a transverse diameter of the T-shaped patch. The antenna dimensions including the ground plane are $40{\times}60{\times}1.6mm^3$. It is fabricated on the FR-4 substrate(${\epsilon}_r$=4.4) using a microstrip line of $50{\Omega}$ for impedance matching. In the measured result, the bandwidth corresponding to the VSWR of 2:1 is 162 MHz(815~977 MHz) and 2,530 MHz(1.43~3.96 GHz). For analyzing the human effect by the proposed antenna, 1 g and 10 g averaged SARs are simulated and measured. As the simulated results, 1 g-averaged SAR is 1.044 W/kg, and 10 g-averaged SAR is 0.718 W/kg. This result are satisfied by the SAR guidelines which are 1.6 W/kg(1 g-averaged) and 2.0 W/kg(10 g-averaged).
