Purposes: It is very important to establish a clinical data warehouse based on a common data model to offset the different data characteristics of each medical institution and for drug surveillance. This study attempted to establish a clinical data warehouse for Dankook university hospital for drug surveillance, and to derive the main items necessary for development. Methodology/Approach: This study extracted the electronic medical record data of Dankook university hospital tracked for 9 years from 2013 (2013.01.01. to 2021.12.31) to build a clinical data warehouse. The extracted data was converted into the Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership Common Data Model (Version 5.4). Data term mapping was performed using the electronic medical record data of Dankook university hospital and the standard term mapping guide. To verify the clinical data warehouse, the use of angiotensin receptor blockers and the incidence of liver toxicity were analyzed, and the results were compared with the analysis of hospital raw data. Findings: This study used a total of 670,933 data from electronic medical records for the Dankook university clinical data warehouse. Excluding the number of overlapping cases among the total number of cases, the target data was mapped into standard terms. Diagnosis (100% of total cases), drug (92.1%), and measurement (94.5%) were standardized. For treatment and surgery, the insurance EDI (electronic data interchange) code was used as it is. Extraction, conversion and loading were completed. R language-based conversion and loading software for the process was developed, and clinical data warehouse construction was completed through data verification. Practical Implications: In this study, a clinical data warehouse for Dankook university hospitals based on a common data model supporting drug surveillance research was established and verified. The results of this study provide guidelines for institutions that want to build a clinical data warehouse in the future by deriving key points necessary for building a clinical data warehouse.

Accurate estimation of modal parameters (i.e., natural frequency, damping ratio) of tall buildings is of great importance to their structural design, structural health monitoring, vibration control, and state assessment. Based on the combination of variational mode decomposition, smoothed discrete energy separation algorithm-1, and Half-cycle energy operator (VMD-SH), this paper presents a method for structural modal parameter estimation. The variational mode decomposition is proved to be effective and reliable for decomposing the mixed-signal with low frequencies and damping ratios, and the validity of both smoothed discrete energy separation algorithm-1 and Half-cycle energy operator in the modal identification of a single modal system is verified. By incorporating these techniques, the VMD-SH method is able to accurately identify and extract the various modes present in a signal, providing improved insights into its underlying structure and behavior. Subsequently, a numerical study of a four-story frame structure is conducted using the Newmark-β method, and it is found that the relative errors of natural frequency and damping ratio estimated by the presented method are much smaller than those by traditional methods, validating the effectiveness and accuracy of the combined method for the modal identification of the multi-modal system. Furthermore, the presented method is employed to estimate modal parameters of a full-scale tall building utilizing acceleration responses. The identified results verify the applicability and accuracy of the presented VMD-SH method in field measurements. The study demonstrates the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed VMD-SH method in accurately estimating modal parameters of tall buildings from acceleration response data.

As listed as one of the most important requirements for Post-Quantum Cryptography standardization process by National Institute of Standards and Technology, the resistance to various side-channel attacks is considered very critical in deploying cryptosystems in practice. In fact, cryptosystems can easily be broken by side-channel attacks, even though they are considered to be secure in the mathematical point of view. The timing attack(TA) and the simple power analysis attack(SPA) are such side-channel attack methods which can reveal sensitive information by analyzing the timing behavior or the power consumption pattern of cryptographic operations. Thus, appropriate measures against such attacks must carefully be considered in the early stage of cryptosystem's implementation process. The Montgomery multiplier is a commonly used and classical gadget in implementing big-number-based cryptosystems including RSA and ECC. And, as recently proposed as an alternative of building blocks for implementing post quantum cryptography such as lattice-based cryptography, the big-number multiplier including the Montgomery multiplier still plays a role in modern cryptography. However, in spite of its effectiveness and wide-adoption, the multiplier is known to be vulnerable to TA and SPA. And this paper proposes a new countermeasure for the Montgomery multiplier against TA and SPA. Briefly speaking, the new measure first represents a multiplication operand without 0 digits, so the resulting multiplication operation behaves in a very regular manner. Also, the new algorithm removes the extra final reduction (which is intrinsic to the modular multiplication) to make the resulting multiplier more timing-independent. Consequently, the resulting multiplier operates in constant time so that it totally removes any TA and SPA vulnerabilities. Since the proposed method can process multi bits at a time, implementers can also trade-off the performance with the resource usage to get desirable implementation characteristics.

This paper aims to develop Machine Learning (ML) algorithms to predict the buckling resistance of cold-formed steel (CFS) channels with restrained flanges, widely used in typical CFS sheathed wall panels, and provide practical design tools for engineers. The effects of cross-sectional restraints were first evaluated on the elastic buckling behaviour of CFS channels subjected to pure axial compressive load or bending moment. Feedforward multi-layer Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) were then trained on different datasets comprising CFS channels with various dimensions and properties, plate thicknesses, and restraining conditions on one or two flanges, while the elastic distortional buckling resistance of the elements were determined according to the Finite Strip Method (FSM). To develop less biased networks and ensure that every observation from the original dataset has the chance of appearing in the training and test set, a K-fold cross-validation technique was implemented. In addition, the hyperparameters of the ANNs were tuned using a grid search technique to provide ANNs with optimum performances. The results demonstrated that the trained ANNs were able to predict the elastic distortional buckling resistance of CFS flange-restrained elements with an average accuracy of 99% in terms of coefficient of determination. The developed models were then used to propose a simple ANN-based design formula for the prediction of the elastic distortional buckling stress of CFS flange-restrained elements. Finally, the proposed formula was further evaluated on a separate set of unseen data to ensure its accuracy for practical applications.

도시의 교통문제 증가로 대중교통의 중요성과 역할에 대한 인식이 높아져가고 있다. 이러한 패러다임의 변화에 반해 기존 대중교통 통행배정과 관련한 연구는 여러 측면에서 한계가 있다. 복합대중교통망의 경우, 독립수단으로 이루어지는 도로교통과는 달리 수단간 환승, 운행시간 스케줄, 대기시간, 통행요금과 같은 복잡하고 다양한 특성을 포함하기 때문에 그 분석의 어려움은 배가 될 수밖에 없다. 특히, 수도권 대중교통 통합 환승할인제의 시행에 따른 대중교통 수단간 환승통행의 증가와 이에 따른 경로선택의 변화로 대중교통의 통행행태가 변하고 있으나, 기존의 대중교통교통망 구축방법으로는 이러한 변화를 반영하기에는 한계가 있다. 최근 첨단기술의 발달에 따라 대중교통이용자의 통행정보가 실시간으로 기록되는 첨단교통카드체계가 구축 운영 중에 있다. 이러한 첨단기술의 도입은 복합대중교통망 분석에 대한 새로운 접근방법에 대한 연구를 가능하게 하였다. 이에 본 연구에서는 교통카드자료의 통행정보를 효과적으로 활용할 수 있는 대중교통망을 구축하기 위해 정류장의 위치정보와 노선정보를 활용해서 새로운 복합대중교통망을 구축하는 방안을 다음과 같이 제시하였다. 첫째, 교통카드자료의 통행정보를 활용하기 위하여 정류장 기반의 통합교통망을 구축하는 방안을 제시하였다. 둘째, 컴퓨터 기반의 프로그래밍기법을 활용한 단절된 링크의 연결방안을 통해 대중교통의 환승문제를 해결하고자 하였다. 마지막으로, 복합대중교통망의 경로탐색에 있어 가장 큰 문제가 되는 다수단간의 경로탐색에 대한 방안을 제시하였다. 본 연구에서 제시한 방안으로 복합교통망을 구축할 경우, 기존 정류장 좌표와 대중교통의 노선정보를 그대로 활용하여 교통망을 구축할 수 있어 교통망 구축이 쉬울 뿐만 아니라, 환승링크 연결과 같은 별도의 교통망 작업 없이도 대규모 교통망에서의 활용이 가능해 진다.

경제 및 산업의 원천 에너지원인 전력은 생산과 소비의 지역적 상이함으로 장거리 수송을 필수로 하며, 다중환상망(Multi-loop) 형식의 송배전계통으로 전력을 공급한다. 실질적 사용에 앞서, 변전소내 변압기를 통해 변전과정을 거쳐 각 사용처의 특성을 고려하여 전력공급이 이루어지고 있으며 변압기는 본체, 권선, 절연유, 부싱등의 구조로 결합되어 있다. 변전소에서 발생하는 변압기화재는 가구와 상업시설등에 전기공급을 중단시키고 각종 안전사고를 발생시키는 1차 손실뿐만 아니라 2차적으로 경제 손실을 야기한다. 화재의 원인은 부싱 하부파손에 따른 절연유 유출과 약 1초 이내 발화점에 도달하는 절연유에 의한 화재의 연쇄반응으로 파악된다. 화재피해의 최소화를 위해 연기감지기, 자동소화설비 등이 구축되어있으나 감지기의 동작 및 소화가스 방출지연 등으로 화재진화를 위한 골든타임 확보의 부재가 문제되고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 초기 화재진화에 따른 골든타임 확보의 중요성에 따라 화재확산을 방지하고 절연유 누출을 차단하는 능동적 메커니즘의 필요에 따라 수행되었다. 따라서 화염에 의해 팽창하는 고온형상 유지물질과 기계적 화염차단장치를 적용한 부싱방화구조체를 개발하였다. 실제 부싱 및 프렌지규격을 적용하여 제작된 변압기모형에 부싱방화구조체를 설치하여 실규모 화재실험을 수행하였다. 초기화염으로부터 3초내에 정확한 위치와 높이에 부싱방화구조체가 작동함을 확인하였으며 이는 실제 변압기화재 시 화염 확대를 효과적으로 차단할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

하천의 탈질은 수질 개선과 정확한 아산화질소($N_2O$) 발생량 추정에 관련해서 매우 중요한 역할을 한다. 탈질과정은 질소 산화물($NO_3{^-}$)을 다수의 단계를 걸쳐 기체 질소($N_2$ 또는 $N_2O$)로 변화시키는 호흡과정으로, 강력한 온난화기체인 $N_2O$의 주요한 생물학적 배출 또는 흡수 과정이다. 수생태계에서는, 물의 범람, 기질 공급과 유체역학적, 생지화학적 특성의 복잡한 상호작용이 탈질 과정과 다단계 반응의 정도에 따라 중간산물인 $N_2O$ 발생량(flux)을 조절한다. 이처럼 기질의 농도뿐만 아니라 하상의 물 흐름과 체류시간이 반응 산물에 영향을 미치지만, 하천에서 탈질 정도를 조절하는 유체역학적 특성과 지형학적, 생지 화학적 인자의 상호작용에 대한 연구 결과는 아직 제한적이다. 본 실험은 미세지형 변화의 영향을 모의하기 위해서 2차원 실험 수로에 사구를 형성하여 하상지형에 따라, 정지상태의 폐쇄형 챔버를 이용해 $N_2O$ 발생량을 측정하였다. 또한 기질과의 미세지형의 상호작용을 확인하기 위해서 두 독립된 실험은 같은 수로와 지형 구조를 가지지만 다른 용존 유기탄소(DOC) 농도로 설계하였다. 또한 얻어진 자료를 토대로 Random Forest 모델을 활용하여 $N_2O$ 발생량과 조절인자를 추정하였다. 높은 DOC 농도 실험에선, $N_2O$ 발생량이 흐름 방향을 따라 증가하다 사구 뒤쪽 경사에서 가장 높은 발생량($14.6{\pm}8.40{\mu}g\;N_2O-N/m^2\;hr$)이 측정되며, 그 이후로 감소하는 경향을 보인다. 또한 사구 뒤쪽 경사에서 암모늄 농도가 $31.0{\pm}6.24{\mu}g-N/g\;dry\;soil$로 가장 높으며 $N_2O$ 발생량과 유사한 경향을 나타낸다. 반면에, 낮은 DOC 토양은 지형학적 변화에 따른 $N_2O$ 발생량과 암모늄의 변화를 나타내지 않았으며 발생량과 농도 또한 낮게 나타났다. 따라서 본 실험을 통해 비록 지형적 변화는 $N_2O$ 발생량과 화학적 특성에 영향을 미쳤지만, 그 효과는 탄소 가용성에 의해 제한된다는 것을 확인하였다.

Focus has been put on current status of research in the aspect of heating, cooling, ventilation, sanitation and building environment. The conclusions are as follows. (1) Most of fundamental studies on fluid flow were related with heat transportation of facilities. Drop formation and rivulet flow on solid surfaces were interesting topics related with condensation augmentation. Research on micro environment considering flow, heat, humidity was also interesting for comfortable living environment. It can be extended considering biological aspects. Development of fans and blowers of high performance and low noise were continuing topics. Well developed CFD technologies were widely applied for developing facilities and their systems. (2) Most of papers related with heat transfer analysis and heat exchanger shows dealt with convection, evaporation, and channel flow for the design application of heat exchanger. The numerical heat transfer simulation studies have been peformed and reported to show heat transfer characteristics. Experimental as well as numerical studies on heat exchanger were reported, while not many papers are available for the system analysis including heat exchanger. (3) A review of the recent studies on heat pump system shows that performance analysis and control of heat pump have been peformed by various simulations and experiments. The research papers on multi-type heat pump system increased significantly. The studies on heat pipe have been examined experimently for change of working characteristics and strut lure. Research on the phase change has been carried out steadily and operation strategies of encapsulated ice storage tank are reported experimentally in several papers. (4) A review of recent studies on refrigeration/air conditioning system have focused on the system performance and efficiency for new alternative refrigerants. Evaporation and condensation heat transfer characteristics are investigated for tube shapes and new alternative refrigerants. Studies on components of refrigeration/air conditioning system are carried to examine efficiency for various compressors and performance of new expansion devices. In addition to thermophysical properties of refrigerant mixtures, studies on new refrigerants are also carried out, however research works on two-phase flow seemed to be insufficient. (5) A review of the recent studies on absorption cooling system indicates that heat and mass transfer phenomena have been investigated to improve absorber performance. Various experimental data have been presented and several simulation models have been proposed. A review of the recent studies on duct and ventilation shows that ventilation indices have been proposed to quantify the ventilation performance in buildings and tunnels. Main efforts have been focused on the applications of ventilation effectiveness in practice, either numerically using computational fluid dynamics or experimentally using tracer gas techniques. (6) Based on a review of recent studies on indoor thermal environment and building service systems, research issues have mainly focused on many innovative ideas such as underfloor air-conditioning system, personal environmental modules, radiant floor cooling and etc. Also, the new approaches for minimizing energy consumption as well as improving indoor environmental conditions through predictive control of HVAC systems, various activities of building energy management and cost-benefit analysis for economic evaluation were highlighted.
