본 논문에서는 하수처리장에서 활성슬러지를 통한 하수의 처리 과정을 표현할 수 있는 반응 모델을 제안한다. 제안된 모델은 관리대상 물리량들에 영향을 미치는 요소들을 고려하여 퍼지 규칙의 조합 형태로 설계되었다. 생물학적 산소요구량과 부유 물질량은 입력 및 출력 변수에 공통으로 사용되었으며, 폭기량은 입력 변수로 선정되었다. 입력 변수들에 대한 소속 함수들은 계산의 편리를 위해 삼각형 형태로 설계했으며, 운전데이터를 기준으로 소속도를 선정하였다. 시뮬레이션을 통해 제안된 모델의 타당성을 확인해 본 결과, 퍼지 모델의 출력은 운전데이터와 거의 동일하였다.

It is highly requested that the more complicated embedded software is used for high performance and multiple functions of the systems. This is inevitably increasing the errors. Therefore the embedded software testing is getting important recently. There are not general testing methods which are able to be applied for any embedded systems, but via this research, we introduce a testing method which is based on TTCN-3, a testing standard, for embedded systems. A testing environment for network-based embedded software is implemented with considering the features of TTCN-3 testing which is based on message exchange. The testing environment has two additional parts with TTCN-3 test system, the network analyzer to access the network-based systems and the communication interface which is suggested for embedded systems in previous work, and we have implemented the whole testing environment with interacting these two parts. In addition to the normal testing domain, called single node testing as a unit testing of V-model, we suggest another concept to test multiple nodes in network. It could be achieved by adding keywords such as supervisor and object which are describing the feature of TTCN-3 testing component and generating the TTCN-3 Executable code which contains new keywords. The testing has done for embedded software which is based on CAN network and the demonstration of the testing environment has been shown in this paper.

In this paper, cantilevered tall structures are treated as cantilever bars with varying cross-section for the analysis of their free longitudinal (or axial) vibrations. Using appropriate transformations, exact analytical solutions to determine the longitudinal natural frequencies and mode shapes for a one step non-uniform bar are derived by selecting suitable expressions, such as exponential functions, for the distributions of mass and axial stiffness. The frequency equation of a multi-step bar is established using the approach that combines the transfer matrix procedure or the recurrence formula and the closed-form solutions of one step bars, leading to a single frequency equation for any number of steps. The Ritz method is also applied to determine the natural frequencies and mode shapes in the vertical direction for cantilevered tall structures with variably distributed stiffness and mass. The formulae proposed in this paper are simple and convenient for engineering applications. Numerical example shows that the fundamental longitudinal natural frequency and mode shape of a 27-storey building determined by the proposed methods are in good agreement with the corresponding measured data. It is also shown that the selected expressions are suitable for describing the distributions of axial stiffness and mass of typical tall buildings.

The analyses carried out within the Seismic Probabilistic Risk Assessments (SPRAs) of Nuclear Power Plants (NPPs) are affected by significant aleatory and epistemic uncertainties. These uncertainties have to be represented and quantified coherently with the data, information and knowledge available, to provide reasonable assurance that related decisions can be taken robustly and with confidence. The amount of data, information and knowledge available for seismic risk assessment is typically limited, so that the analysis must strongly rely on expert judgments. In this paper, a Dempster-Shafer Theory (DST) framework for handling uncertainties in NPP SPRAs is proposed and applied to an example case study. The main contributions of this paper are two: (i) applying the complete DST framework to SPRA models, showing how to build the Dempster-Shafer structures of the uncertainty parameters based on industry generic data, and (ii) embedding Bayesian updating based on plant specific data into the framework. The results of the application to a case study show that the approach is feasible and effective in (i) describing and jointly propagating aleatory and epistemic uncertainties in SPRA models and (ii) providing 'conservative' bounds on the safety quantities of interest (i.e. Core Damage Frequency, CDF) that reflect the (limited) state of knowledge of the experts about the system of interest.

Atherosclerosis (AS) is a leading cause of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and it results in a high rate of death worldwide, with an increased prevalence with age despite advances in lifestyle management and drug therapy. Atherosclerosis is a chronic progressive inflammatory process, and it mainly presents with lipid accumulation, foam cell proliferation, inflammatory response, atherosclerotic plaque formation and rupture, thrombosis, and vascular calcification. Therefore, there is a great need for reliable therapeutic drugs or remedies to cure or alleviate atherosclerosis and reduce the societal burden. Ginsenosides are natural steroid glycosides and triterpene saponins obtained mainly from the plant ginseng. Several recent studies have reported that ginsenosides have a variety of pharmacological activities against several diseases including inflammation, cancer and cardiovascular diseases. This review focuses on describing the different pharmacological functions and underlying mechanisms of various active ginsenosides (Rb1,-Rd, -F, -Rg1, -Rg2, and -Rg3, and compound K) for atherosclerosis, which could provide useful insights for developing novel and effective anti-cardiovascular drugs.

The Seoul Neuropsychological Screening Battery (SNSB) is known as a representative comprehensive neuropsychological evaluation tool in Korea since its first standardization in 2003. It was the main neuropsychological evaluation tool in the Clinical Research Center for Dementia of South Korea, a large-scale multi-center cohort study in Korea that was started in 2005. Since then, it has been widely used by dementia clinicians, and further solidified its status as a representative dementia evaluation tool in Korea. Many research results related to the SNSB have been used as a basis for the diagnosis and evaluation of patients in various clinical settings, especially, in many areas of cognitive assessment, including dementia evaluation. The SNSB version that was updated in 2012 provides psychometrically improved norms and indicators through a model-based standardization procedure based on a theoretical probability distribution in the norm's development. By providing a score for each cognitive domain, it is easier to compare cognitive abilities between domains and to identify changes in cognitive domain functions over time. Through the development of the SNSB-Core, a short form composed of core tests, which also give a composite score was provided. The SNSB is a useful test battery that provides key information on the evaluation of early cognitive decline, analysis of cognitive decline patterns, judging the severity of dementia, and differential diagnosis of dementia. This review will provide a broad understanding of the SNSB by describing the test composition, contents of individual subtests, characteristics of standardization, analysis of the changed standard score, and related studies.

유한요소 해석법에서는 CAD 모델을 유한요소 모델로 이산화하기 때문에 CAD와 해석 모델의 차이로 인해 형상 설계민감도 및 최적설계에서 설계영역 매개 변수화에 어려움이 있다. 반면에 아이소-지오메트릭 해석법은 CAD 모델과 동일한 NURBS 기저함수와 조정점을 해석에 이용함으로써 설계의 기하학적 변화를 해석모델에 직접적으로 표현할 수 있기 때문에 전술된 여러 어려움들을 개선할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 일반 곡면 좌표계에서 아이소-지오메트릭 해석 모델을 정식화하여 곡면 부재에 대한 구조해석과 형상 설계민감도 해석을 수행하였다. 아이소-지오메트릭 해석에서는 법선, 접선, 곡률 등과 같은 고차의 기하학적 정보들이 엄밀하게 표현될 수 있기 때문에 주어진 CAD 모델에 적합한 일반 곡면 좌표계를 생성해 낼 수 있다. 기존의 아이소-지오메트릭 구조해석 및 설계민감도 해석 결과와 비교하여 제안된 해석방법론이 더 정확한 해와 더 빠른 수렴성을 보이는 것을 확인하였다.

본 연구는 청소년의 교정 치료 시 중요한 교정 환자의 성장 평가 및 잔여 성장량 예측 방법을 개발하기 위하여 시행되었다. 이를 위하여 한국인의 전국적 표본 자료 중에서 $2\;{\sim}\;20$세 남자 4,893명, 여자 4,987명의 키 자료를 이용하여 성별 연령별 키에 대한 성장 곡선을 3차 스플라인 함수(NCSF)로 구현하였다. 이후 성장 예측 알고리즘을 개발하고 이를 임의로 선택된 200명의 종단 성장 자료를 이용하여 검증하였다. 검증에는 최종 키 예측 정확성과 검증 표본의 모든 연령에 대한 키 예측 오차 분석 및 NCSF 성장 곡선의 적합성 검사가 포함되었다. 그 결과 NCSF 성장 곡선은 기준 성장 곡선을 표현하는데 매우 적합한 것으로 나타났으며 최종 키 예측 정확성도 높았다. 또한 예측 정확성은 남자 보다 여자가 유의하게 높았다. 이러한 결과에도 불구하고 검증 표본의 모든 연령에 대한 키 예측 오차의 양상이 독립성과 정규성이 부족한 단점도 나타났다. 결론적으로 본 연구 결과 도출된 NCSF 성장 곡선을 이용한 성장 예측 방법의 높은 정확성에도 불구하고 개인의 종단 성장에 좀 더 적합한 성장 모형의 개발이 필요할 것으로 생각되었다.

A line of Japanese quail selected for increased body weight for 15 generations (C) and an unselected control line (K) were used to examine the impact of selection for body weight on the growth curve of Japanese quail. In addition, the effect of sex on the growth curve in each line was also studied, namely females of C (CF), males of C (CM), females of K (KF) and males of K (KM). The monophasic and diphasic growth models were studied for adequacy in describing growth curves of quail in both sexes of the C and K lines. The monophasic function provided almost the same growth rate for both sexes in both lines. However, the growth rates calculated by means of the diphasic function differed between sexes for both lines, except for those calculated for C during the second growth phase. While there were 2-3 days difference between sexes in age at maximum gain in both lines with a monophasic model, the difference between sexes in the age at maximum gain in both lines became greater according to the diphasic model. There were 5 and 7 days difference between sexes in the age at maximum gain in line C for the first and second growth phases, respectively. A difference between sexes of 18 and 11 days in the age at maximum gain for the first and second phases, respectively, was estimated for line K when the diphasic function was fitted. The use of diphasic functions provides more detailed information on growth patterns. The results showed that the use of the diphasic function was better because it provided greater insights into understanding the biology of growth.
