본 논문은 게임과 가상현실 시스템을 위한 스테이트챠트(Statecharts) 기반의 점진적인(progressive) 행위 LOD 모델을 소개하고 있다. 시스템의 리소스를 최대한 활용할 수 있도록 상황에 따라 임의의 복잡도를 가진 행위 LOD를 자유롭게 생성할 수 있는 스테이트챠트 기반의 명세 프로세스를 포함하여, 모델간 개량(refinement) 연산, 모델 간 전환(switching) 법칙, LOD 선택 정책 등을 정의하였다. 더불어, 제안된 접근방법의 가능성을 보여주기 위해, 가상 자동차가 단계적으로 설계되어가면서 점진적인 LOD 모델이 되는 예를 들고 있다.

An advanced nuclear reactor based on molten salts including a molten salt reactor and pyroprocessing needs a sensitive monitoring system suitable for operation in harsh environments with limited access. Multi-element detection is challenging with the conventional technologies that are compatible with the in-situ operation; hence laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) has been investigated as a potential alternative. However, limited precision is a chronic problem with LIBS. We increased the precision of LIBS under high temperature by protecting optics using a gas protective layer and correcting for shotto-shot variance and lens-to-sample distance using a laser-induced acoustic signal. This study investigates cerium as a surrogate for uranium and corrosion products for simulating corrosive environments in LiCl-KCl. While the un-corrected limit of detection (LOD) range is 425-513 ppm, the acoustic-corrected LOD range is 360-397 ppm. The typical cerium concentrations in pyroprocessing are about two orders of magnitude higher than the LOD found in this study. A LIBS monitoring system that adopts these methods could have a significant impact on the ability to monitor and provide early detection of the transient behavior of salt composition in advanced molten salt-based nuclear reactors.

본 논문에서는 사실적인 질량-스프링 기반 옷감 모델의 애니메이션을 효율적이며 사실적으로 생성하기 위해 근사된 암시적 적분법을 계층적으로 적용하는 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 계층적 시뮬레이션 방법은 매우 많은 정점을 가진 메쉬(mesh)의 사실적인 움직임을 상호작용적으로 생성할 수 있다. 이 기법은 암시적 적분법을 근사하는 빠르고 안정적인 방법을 사용한다. 이 근사 기법은 효율적이기는 하지만 극도로 부정확하며 지나치게 댐핑(damping)이 많이 일어난다. 본 논문에 제안된 계층적 시뮬레이션 기법은 메쉬 구조를 다중 단계로 구성하여 옷감 모델의 사실적인 외형을 표현하도록 하며, 각각의 단계에 시뮬레이션을 적용할 때 현재 단계의 메쉬에 존재하는 일부 질점이 이전 단계의 시뮬레이션 결과를 따르도록 한다. 이러한 계층적 시뮬레이션 방법은 많은 수의 질점으로 구성된 옷감 모델의 사실적인 동작을 효율적으로 생성한다. 또한 계층적 기법은 옷감 모델에 사실적인 주름을 생성할 수 있도록 하며, 계층적 단계에 따라 스프링의 수축 저항을 제어할 수 있도록 하여 주름의 패턴도 쉽게 제어할 수 있도록 한다.

This paper describes a data structure and evaluation algorithm to improve the perofmrances MOS logic-with-timing simulation in computation and accuracy. In order to efficiently simulate the logic and timing of driver-load networks, (1) a tree data structure to represent the mutual interconnection topology of switches and nodes in the driver-lod network, and (2) an algebraic modeling to efficiently deal with the new represetnation, (3) an evaluation algorithm to compute the linear resistive and capacitive behavior with the new modeling of driver-load networks are developed. The higher modeling presented here supports the structural and functional compatibility with the linear switch-level to simulate the logic-with-timing of digital MOS circuits at a mixed-level. This research attempts to integrate the new approach into the existing simulator RSIM, which yield a mixed-klevel logic-with-timing simulator MIXIM. The experimental results show that (1) MIXIM is a far superior to RSIM in computation speed and timing accuracy; and notably (2) th etiming simulation for driver-load netowrks produces the accuracy ranged within 17% with respect ot the analog simulator SPICE.

Pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) are emerging contaminants in the aquatic environment. Many pharmaceuticals are not completely removed during wastewater treatment, leading to their presence in wastewater treatment effluents, rivers, lakes, and ground water. Here, we developed analytical methods for monitoring ten pharmaceuticals from surface water by LC/ESI-MS/MS. For sample clean-up and extraction, MCX (mixed cation exchange) and HLB (hydrophilic-lipophilic balance) solid-phase extraction (SPE) cartridges were used. The limits of detection (LOD) in distilled water and the blank surface water were in the range of 0.006 - 0.65 and 1.66 - 45.05 pg/mL, respectively. The limits of quantitation (LOQ) for the distilled water and the blank surface water were in the range of 0.02 - 2.17 and 5.52 - 150.15 pg/mL, respectively. The absolute recoveries for fortified water samples were between 62.1% and 125.4%. Intra-day precision and accuracy for the blank surface water were 2.9% - 24.1% (R.S.D.) and -16.3% - 16.3% (bias), respectively. In surface wastewater near rivers, chlortetracycline and acetylsalicylic acid were detected frequently in the range of 0.017 - 5.404 and 0.029 - 0.269 ng/mL, respectively. Surface water near rivers had higher levels than surface water of domestic treatment plants.

The carbon paste electrode (CPE) was modified with the pristine bentonite and hybrid material (HDTMA-modified bentonite). The modified-CPEs are then employed as working electrode in an electrochemical detection of As(V) from aqueous solutions using the cyclic voltammetric measurements. Cyclic voltammograms revealed that As(V) showed reversible behavior onto the working electrode. The hybrid material-modified carbon paste electrode showed significantly enhanced electrochemical signal which was then utilized in the low level detection of As(V). Moreover, the studies were conducted at neutral pH conditions. The electrochemical studies were conducted with scan rates (20 to 200 mV/s) to deduce the mechanism of redox processes involved at the electrode surface. The anodic current was linearly increased, increasing the concentration of As(V) from 5.0 to $35.0{\mu}g/g$ using the hybrid material-modified electrode. This provided fairly a good calibration line for As(V) detection. The presence of varied concentrations of As(III) in the determination of total arsenic was studied. The influence of several cations and anions viz., Cu(II), Mn(II), Zn(II), Pb(II), Cd(II), Fe(III), $Cl^-$, $NO_3{^-}$, $PO_4{^{3-}}$, EDTA and glycine in the detection of As(V) from aqueous solution was also studied. Further, in an attempt to simulate the real matrix analysis, the tap water sample was spiked with As(V) and subjected for As(V) detection using the modified-CPE.
