The initial condition should be consistent with real reactor core state for the simulation of the core transient. The initial xenon distribution, which cad not be measured in the core, has a significant effect on the transient with xenon dynamics of PWR. In the simulation of the transient stating from non-equilibrium xenon state, the accurate initialization of the non-equilibrium xenon distribution is essential to predict the core transient behavior. In this study, the xenon initialization method to predict the core transient more accurately was developed through the first-order perturbation theory of the relationship between simulated power and measured power distribution and verified by the application of the simulation for a startup test of Yonggwang Unit 3.

According to NSSC Notice No. 2021-10, safety analysis needs to be introduced in the decommissioning plan. Public and occupational dose analyses should be conducted, specifically for unexpected radiological accidents. Herein, based on the risk matrix and analytic hierarchy process, the method of selecting accident scenarios during the decommissioning of nuclear power plants has been proposed. During decommissioning, the generated spent resin exhibits relatively higher activity than other generated wastes. When accidents occur, the release fraction varies depending on the conditioning method of radioactive waste and type of radioactive nuclides or accidents. Occupational dose analyses for 2 (fire and drop) among 11 accident scenarios have been performed. The radiation doses of the additional exposures caused by the fire and drop accidents are 1.67 and 4.77 mSv, respectively.

In this study, ternary compound Max Phase $Ti_2AlC$ material was mixed by 3D ball milling as a function of ball milling time. More than 99.5 wt% pure $Ti_2AlC$ was synthesized by using spark plasma sintering method at 1000, 1100, 1200, and $1300^{\circ}C$ for 60 min. The material characteristics of synthesized samples were examined with relative density, hardness, and electrical conductivity as a function of sintering temperature. The phase composition of bulk was identified by X-ray diffraction. On the basis of FE-SEM result, a terraced structures which consists of several laminated layers were observed. And $Ti_2AlC$ bulk material obtained a vickers hardness of 5.1 GPa at the sintering temperature of $1100^{\circ}C$.

We have studied cytotoxicity of S-nitroso-N-acetyl- N-DL-penicillamine(SNAP), a Nitric oxide (NO)-releasing compound, in RAW264.7 macrophages. SNAP is cytotoxic to RAW264.7 cells in a concentration-dependent manner. PMA(200 nM) stimulated cells to produce superoxide anton radical($O_2^{-\cdot}$) and caused a little loss of RAW264.7 cell viability for 12 hr and diminished the cytotoxicity of SNAP. The mechanism by which PMA can protect cells against NO-mediated cytotoxicity was studied by peroxynitrite-enhanced chemiluminescence method. Observed results suggested that $O_2^{-\cdot}$ produced by PMAstimulated RAW264.7 cells may quench NO released by SNAP and reduce NO, thus attenuating NO-related damages.

Condition monitoring plays a vital role since it sustains the reliable operation of industrial plant and machinery in the pursuit of economic whole life operation. In order to achieve this goal, it is needed to monitor various parameters of mechanical system such as vibration, wear, temperature, and etc., and finally to diagnosis the root causes of any possible abnormal machine condition. In this work, we constructed a rotor system where various types of functional machine failures occurred frequently in industry were induced. Characteristics of the machine failure were monitored simultaneously by the on-line measurement of vibration, wear and temperature. Result showed that these parameters responded differently to the induced functional machine failure. The availability of each parameter on effective condition monitoring was discussed in this work.

Ebstein anomaly is a rare congenital heart malformation typically involving the tricuspid valve and the right ventricle that has a wide range of anatomical and pathophysiological presentations. Various surgical repair techniques for Ebstein anomaly have been reported because of its near-infinite anatomical variability. Cone repair for Ebstein anomaly can achieve nearly anatomical reconstruction of the tricuspid valve with promising outcomes. In this article, the surgical techniques for cone repair in adult patients with Ebstein anomaly are described in detail, and clinical experiences and technically challenging cases are presented.

We present a matrix-based inference algorithm suitable for electronic commerce applications. For this purpose, an Extended AND-OR Graph (EAOG) was developed with the intention that fast inference process is enabled within the electronic commerce situations. The proposed EAOG inference mechanism has the following three characteristics. 1. Real-time inference: The EAOG inference mechanism is suitable for the real-time inference because its computational mechanism is based on matrix computation. 2. Matrix operation: All the subjective knowledge is delineated in a matrix form. so that inference process can proceed based on the matrix operation which is computationally efficient. 3. Bi-directional inference: Traditional inference method of expert systems is based on either forward chaining or backward chaining which is mutually exclusive in terms of logical process and computational efficiency. However, the proposed EAOG inference mechanism is generically bi-directional without loss of both speed and efficiency. We have proved the validity of our approach with several propositions and an illustrative EC example.

A GPS/SDINS/ST(Star Tracker) integrated sensor algorithm is more robust than the GPS/SDINS and the ST/SDINS systems on exploration of other planets. Most of the advanced studies shown that GPS/SDINS/ST integrated sensor with centralized Kalman filter was more accurate than those 2 integrated systems. The system, however, consist of a single filter, it is vulnerable to defects on failed data. To improve the problem, we work out a study using federated Kalman filter(No-Reset mode) and centralized Kalman filter with adaptive measurement fusion which known as robustness on fault. The simulation results show that the debasing influences are reduced and the computation is enable at least 100Hz. Further researches that the initial calibration in accordance with observability and applying the exploration trajectory are needed.

To find out the changes in vertical distribution patterns over the 24-h period, a key and the first step to tackle the problem of adaptive significance of diel vertical migration (DVM), vertically stratified time series samplings with multiple opening/closing plankton samplers were done in the East Sea of Korea (Sea of Japan). Sampling was done almost every 4 h for one day period following the same water parcel in Nov. 1995 and May 1996, respectively. Resultant patterns of vertical distribution showed that some species such as most abundant taxa Metridia pacifica and Scolecithyicella minor, both Copepoda, performed DVM even in the study area of strong thermal stratification. Their patterns of DVM such as distance scales and timing of movements were not the same each other, and they were separated from other taxa in the dendrogram obtained by the cluster analyses, Most minor taxa grouped in one, however, seemed not to do DVM in the study area of strong thermal stratification. They usually preferred the warmer surface layer where the foods were probably more abundant.
