In this paper, we proposed an emulsification method without using an emulsifier and investigated the effects of particle size distribution in fluids on dispersion stability. Surfactant-free oil in water emulsion was prepared with 1 % (w/w) of olive oil by using high speed agitation, high pressure and ultrasonic dispersion methods. The particle size, microscopic observation, and dispersion stability of each sample were evaluated and dispersion stability according to various dispersion methods was compared. As a result, the emulsion dispersed by the ultrasonic dispersion method showed the smallest particle size and uniform distribution of $0.07{\sim} 0.3{\mu}m$ and was the most stable in a 7 days stability evaluation. In the above experiment, four olive oil emulsions having different particle sizes were prepared using ultrasonic dispersion technology that was capable of producing stable emulsions. The dispersion stability of each samples with oil droplet sizes of (A) 0.1 to $0.5{\mu}m$, (B) 0.3 to $4{\mu}m$, (C) 1 to $10.5{\mu}m$ and (D) 2 to $120{\mu}m$, was observed for 7 days, and the relationship between the stability and performance was studied. Emulsion (A) with particle size less than $0.5{\mu}m$ displayed the dispersion stability showing below 5 % change in a 7 days stability evaluation. In the case of (B), (C), and (D) that had larger particle than $0.5{\mu}m$, the changes of dispersion stability were 10 %, 13 % and 35 % respectively. From these results, it was proved that dispersion stability of emulsion with uniform particle size of $0.5{\mu}m$ or less was confirmed to be very stable.

우주발사체의 비행안전분석은 정상 및 비정상 비행으로 인해 발생되는 파편의 낙하점 및 낙하분산영역을 예측하여 인명, 선박 그리고 항공기에 미치는 영향을 분석하게 된다. 낙하점 및 낙하분산영역 예측은 우주발사체의 비행안전분석에 필수 요소이다. 특히, 낙하분산영역은 몬테카를로 시뮬레이션을 적용하여 예측될 수 있다. 이럴 경우, 수백회 이상의 반복 계산이 요구되는 몬테카를로 방법은 낙하분산영역을 산출하는데 많은 시간이 소요된다. 본 논문에서는 몬테카를로 시뮬레이션을 대체할 수 있는 방안으로 JU 변환과 다구치 방법을 적용해보고, 세가지 방안의 결과를 비교하여 낙하분산영역 계산을 위해 적합한 방법을 제시한다.

Effect of dispersion methods for Vapor Grown Carbon Fibers (VGCF) in epoxy caused the change in mechanical properties of VGCF/epoxy nanocomposites, such as tensile modulus and tensile strength. The influence of VGCF types - atmospheric plasma treated (APT) VGCF and raw VGCF - and their contents was discussed in detail. Treating VGCF with atmospheric plasma enhanced the surface energy, therefore improved the bonding strength with epoxy matrix. Two different methods used to disperse VGCF were ultrasonic and mechanical homogenizer methods. When using dispersion solutions, the VGCF demonstrated good dispersion in ethanol in both homogenizer and ultrasonic method. The uniform dispersion of VGCF was investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) which showed well-dispersion of VGCF in epoxy matrix. The tensile modulus of raw VGCF/epoxy nanocomposites obtained by ultrasonic method was higher than that of one obtained by homogenizer method. APT VGCF/epoxy nanocomposites showed higher tensile strength than that of raw VGCF/epoxy nanocomposites.

Background: High-fidelity meteorological data is a prerequisite for the realistic simulation of atmospheric dispersion of radioactive materials near nuclear power plants (NPPs). However, many meteorological models frequently overestimate near-surface wind speeds, failing to represent local meteorological conditions near NPPs. This study presents a new high-resolution (approximately 1 km) meteorological downscaling method for modeling short-range (< 100 km) atmospheric dispersion of accidental NPP plumes. Materials and Methods: Six considerations from literature reviews have been suggested for a new dynamic downscaling method. The dynamic downscaling method is developed based on the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model version 3.6.1, applying high-resolution land-use and topography data. In addition, a new subgrid-scale topographic drag parameterization has been implemented for a realistic representation of the atmospheric surface-layer momentum transfer. Finally, a year-long simulation for the Kori and Wolsong NPPs, located in southeastern coastal areas, has been made for 2016 and evaluated against operational surface meteorological measurements and the NPPs' on-site weather stations. Results and Discussion: The new dynamic downscaling method can represent multiscale atmospheric motions from the synoptic to the boundary-layer scales and produce three-dimensional local meteorological fields near the NPPs with a 1.2 km grid resolution. Comparing the year-long simulation against the measurements showed a salient improvement in simulating near-surface wind fields by reducing the root mean square error of approximately 1 m/s. Furthermore, the improved wind field simulation led to a better agreement in the Eulerian estimate of the local atmospheric dispersion. The new subgrid-scale topographic drag parameterization was essential for improved performance, suggesting the importance of the subgrid-scale momentum interactions in the atmospheric surface layer. Conclusion: A new dynamic downscaling method has been developed to produce high-resolution local meteorological fields around the Kori and Wolsong NPPs, which can be used in short-range atmospheric dispersion modeling near the NPPs.

기존 Crank-Nicolson FDTD 기법(CN FDTD 기법)의 비등방성 분산 특성을 개선하기 위한 CN ID-FDTD 기법을 제안하였다. 제안한 CN ID-FDTD 기법은 공간 미분 연산을 위해 기존 CN FDTD 기법의 centered 유한 차분식 (Finite Difference equation: FD 연산식)이 아닌 isotropic-dispersion 유한 차분식(ID-FD 연산식)$^{[1],[2]}$을 이용한다. 본 논문에서는 손실 매질에 대한 CN ID-FDTD 기법의 분산 관계식을 유도하였고, 이 분산 관계식을 이용해 ID-FD 연산식에서 분산 오차(dispersion error)를 줄이는 가중치(weighting factor)와 보정값(scaling factor)을 제시하였다. 그리고 해석 결과의 정확성 비교를 통해 CN ID-FDTD 기법에서는 기존 CN FDTD 기법의 단점이었던 비등방성 분산 오차가 확연하게 감소하는 것을 확인하였다.

We investigated the antipodal-symmetric dispersion maps of a dispersion-managed link with a midway optical phase conjugator to compensate for the distorted 960 Gb/s wavelength division multiplexed (WDM) signal caused by these effects. The proposed antipodal-symmetric dispersion map has various shapes depending on the detailed design scheme. We confirmed that the dispersion-managed link designed with the dispersion map of the antipodal-symmetric structure is more advantageous than the conventional uniform dispersion map for compensating WDM channels. It was also confirmed that among the antipodal-symmetric structures, the dispersion map configured with the S-1-profile, in which S is inverted up and down, was more effective for distortion compensation than the dispersion map configured with the S-profile. In particular, we confirmed that the S-1-profile can broaden the optical pulse width intensively at a short transmission distance, more effectively compensating for the distorted WDM channel. Because this structure makes the intensity of the optical pulse relatively weak, it can decrease the nonlinear Kerr effect.

Stress wave propagation plays an important role in many engineering problems for reducing industrial noise and vibrations. In this paper, the dispersion-corrected finite element model is proposed for reducing the dispersion error in simulation of stress wave propagation. At eliminating the numerical dispersion error arising from the numerical simulation of stress wave propagation, numerical dispersion characteristics of the wave equation based finite element model are analyzed and some dispersion control scheme are proposed. The validity of the dispersion correction techniques is demonstrated by comparing the numerical solutions obtained using the present techniques.

Solid dispersion is one of well-established pharmaceutical techniques to improve the dissolution and consequent bioavailability of poorly water soluble drugs. It is defined as a dispersion of drug in an inert carrier matrix. Solid dispersions can be classified into three generations according to the carrier used in the system. First and second generations consist of crystalline and amorphous substances, respectively. Third generation carriers are surfactant, mixture of polymer and surfactants, and mixture of polymers. Solid dispersions can be generallyprepared by melting method and solvent method. While melting method requires high temperature to melt carrier and dissolve drug, solvent method utilizes solvent to dissolve the components. The improvement in dissolution through solid dispersions is attributed to reduction in drug particle size, improvement in wettability, and/or formation of amorphous state. The primary characteristics of solid dispersions, the presenceof drug in amorphous state, could be determined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), and fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). In spite of the significant improvement in dissolution by solid dispersion technique, some drawbacks have limited the commercial application of solid dispersions. Thus, further studies should be conducted in a direction to improve the congeniality to commercialization.

짧은 시간에 장거리를 전파하는 유도 초음파의 특성을 이용하면 빠르게 넓은 영역의 검사가 가능하다. 그러나 레일의 경우와 같이 단면이 단순하지 않고 임의의 형상을 갖는 구조물의 경우 초음파 전달시 발생하는 분산 특성이나 다수의 모드의 발생으로 초음파 신호의 분석에 어려움을 겪는다. 따라서 실용적인 유도 초음파 검사 시스템을 개발하기 위해서는 먼저 레일내를 전파하여 전달되는 초음파의 거동특성을 이해하여야 한다. 특히 레일내를 전파하는 초음파의 분산특성은 필수적으로 확인되어야 할 특성이다. 본논문에서는 SAFE법을 활용하여 KS60 레일내를 전파하는 초음파의 분산곡선을 구하는 방법을 소개하고 유도초음파를 활용한 레일 검사의 가능성에 대하여 살펴보았다.
