Groundroll is a coherent noise showing dispersive behavior in land seismic-reflection records and its rejection has been a stubborn problem in data processing because they severely degrade the continuities and resolution of reflection signals. Conventional processing schemes of attenuating noises are the kind of frequency filtering (i.e., bandpass and f-k) that uses the Fourier transform (FT) along the entire trace in the time domain. To suppress them in this study, 1D wavelet filtering (WT) that can control time-varying frequency properties is tested and performed in the land-based synthetic and field seismic data. The results are compared to the ones from conventional filtering techniques in terms of continuities and resolution of reflection events. This filtering technique enhanced the reflection events by effectively eliminating the dispersive groundroll and random noises with control of time-scale function on wavelet domain.

This study examines the wavelet transform for output-only system identification of ambient excited engineering structures with emphasis on its utilization for modal parameter estimation of high-order and closely-spaced modes. Sophisticated time-frequency resolution analysis has been carried out by employing the modified complex Morlet wavelet function for better adaption and flexibility of the time-frequency resolution to extract two closely-spaced frequencies. Furthermore, bandwidth refinement techniques such as a bandwidth resolution adaptation, a broadband filtering technique and a narrowband filtering one have been proposed in the study for the special treatments of high-order and closely-spaced modal parameter estimation. Ambient responses of a 5-story steel frame building have been used in the numerical example, using the proposed bandwidth refinement techniques, for estimating the modal parameters of the high-order and closely-spaced modes. The first five natural frequencies and damping ratios of the structure have been estimated; furthermore, the comparison among the various proposed bandwidth refinement techniques has also been examined.

Korean certification regulation for particulate filtering respirators requires inward leakage (IL) test as European Standards (EN) and the standard levels of regulation are the same as those of EN. This study was conducted to evaluate particulate filtering respirators being commercially used in the market by using IL and assess the characteristics of IL. The study began with discussing the concept of IL, comparison of IL with fit test, and IL measurement method. Three brands of half masks and 10 brands of filtering facepieces (two top class, four 1st class and four 2nd class), total 13 brands respirators, and 10 test panels (subjects) who were classified in 9 facial grids in accordance with face length and lip length, were selected for IL test. IL tests were conducted in the laboratory of 3M Innovation Center which was established by EN standard. As expected ILs of half masks were lower than those of filtering facepiece mask. ILs of half masks and some filtering facepieces were significantly different in manufacturers. ILs of 1st class filtering facepieces were found to be much more than those of 2nd class and thus the result would cause wearers to get confused to select a mask. Four of six brands being no compliance with standards were thought that they should be tested again for certification because of a lot of differences from standards. There were no significant differences among ILs of five exercises. In 6 out of 13 brands lognormal distribution of ILs may be a better fit distribution and in 7 brands both lognormal and normal distributions were rejected. The result indicates that geometric mean may be better than arithmetic mean to establish standard.

본 연구는 리그노셀룰로오스 섬유와 굴참나무 수피-기반 활성탄(COA)으로 제조한 3층 섬유판에 한지를 조합하여 제작한 섬유판 필터세트의 미세먼지(PM), 휘발성 유기화합물(TVOC), 폼알데하이드(HCHO) 여과능을 조사하기 위하여 수행하였다. 단백질계 접착제를 적용하여 표층에 목섬유 그리고 심층에 재생섬유/COA로 제조한 섬유판(WRF)과 한지로 제작한 섬유판 필터세트는 일반향의 연소에 의하여 발생하는 상기 오염물질을 효과적으로 여과하였다. 섬유판 제조에 있어 표층/심층에 적용되는 접착제의 함지율을 4%/4%, 5%/3%, 6%/2%로 조절하여 WRF를 제조한 후, 이를 한지와 함께 WRF-기반 필터세트 제작에 이용하였다. 이 필터세트의 PM, TVOC, HCHO 여과능은 심층의 함지율이 감소함에 따라 향상되었다. 한편 WRF-기반 필터세트 구성에 있어 45 g/m² 평량의 한지보다 25 g/m² 평량의 한지(KP-25g)를 사용하여 제작한 필터세트에서 여과능이 우수하였다. 표층에 재생섬유와 심층에 목섬유/COA로 제조한 섬유판(RWF)과 KP-25g로 구성한 섬유판 필터세트의 여과능은 WRF와 비교하여 높았다. 소형 실내공간 및 대형 옥외공간에 WRF-기반 섬유판 필터세트 및 무필터 조건과 함께 측정한 PM 및 TVOC 여과능은 RWF-기반 섬유판 필터세트에서 높았다. 따라서 RWF와 KP-25g를 조합하여 제작한 섬유판 필터세트가 실내외 공간에 존재하는 PM, TVOC 여과용 필터로서 적용이 가능할 것으로 생각한다.

The present study was conducted to develop a milk filtering system for decreasing somatic cell count (SCC) in bulk tank milk. The pore sizes of the filter were 0.1, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5 and $0.8{\mu}m$. The rate of SCC reduction of $1^{st}$ grade milk on $0.1{\mu}m$ filter was 76% and significantly higher than other treatments. The rates of SCC reduction for 0.3, 0.4, 0.5 and $0.8{\mu}m$ were 35, 32, 18 and 6.4%, respectively. The effects of the milk filtering system on bacterial count and milk fat content were minimal. The milk flow rates per minute between the filter sizes were similar. But discharge pressures were increased as the pore size of the filter decreased. In conclusion, Considering the rate of SCC reduction, discharge pressure and cost, $0.4{\mu}m$ filter could be recommended.

Road runoff, one of non-point source pollutants, contains various heavy metals, most of which flow into discharge waters without being treated. The mechanism of removing the heavy metals in water is similar to that of removing micro-particles. Therefore, it is considered that it is possible to remove a lot of the heavy metals contained in the road runoff by filtering or absorbing them. In this paper, performed has been a basic study on the characteristics of UNFS (Up Flow Non-Point Source Filtering System) using carbide pellet and zeolite pellet as double-layer filtering mediums to treat the road runoff. The removal rate with filtering and absorption time has been shown as follows: 29.0% for Cr; 27.8% for Cd; 25.7% for Fe; 25.4% for Co; 21.2% for Pb; ]9.6% for Zn; 18.2% for Al; 17.0% for Mn; 11.3% for Ni; 7.5% for Cu. The overall removal rate according to influx change has been shown to be approximately 30%, and the load of heavy metals flowing out in initial precipitation could be reduced by using carbide as a recycling filtering medium. When the removal as coarse particles settle is added up, it is expected that UNFS will result in a higher removal rate.

All over the world, the existing process of water purification needs more flocculants and chlorine due to a gradual decline in the quality of source water. Therefore, the problem of the remaining aluminium and DBPs in purified water is on the rise. To solve this problem, the process of membrane filter has recently come into the spotight. This study reaches the following conclusions concerning TMP variation in order to solve the dropping of flux throgh a membrane filter when operating a membrane filter system in the process of water purification. 1. In case that a cohesion-precipitation process was introduced to pre-treatment of a membrane filter, initial TMP was very satisfactory(0.27kg/cm) in producing the constantly safe quality of water, $0.04{\sim}0.1$(mean 0.05) NTU by pouring 2mg/l of PACI(10% $Al_2O_3$) used for the existing process of water purification in high-density turbidity at a dry or flood season and at occurrence of high algae. 2. As flux increased at 0.5m/day.m, TMP increased 0.05 kgf/cm. 3. As filtering, operation mode of PVDF MF membrane filtering was 48 minutes and 1 cycle of back washing was 42 minutes, flux was increased 1.5m/day.m and TMP increased $0.25{\sim}0.27kgf/cm$. Without back washing, TMP increased 0.03 kgf/cm per a cycle.

Objectives: One aim of the study is to compare filtering facepiece masks for healthcare workers between Korea and other countries. The other is to emphasize the importance of fit testing for these masks using an analysis of previous research. Materials: An extensive literature review was performed by searching a number of websites and existing studies. Results: KF94 and KF99 masks certified by the Korean CDC are suitable for healthcare workers as filtering facepiece masks. The standards for these respirators are similar to FFP2 and FFP3 of EN 143 and 149. The performance, such as filtering efficiency, is almost the same between KP94 and N95. It was found that fit testing of respirators for healthcare workers was important to reduce infection risk. Conclusions: KF94 should be emphasized as filtering facepiece masks for healthcare workers rather than N95. Even though Korea has no fit testing regulations, implementing fit testing in healthcare settings is strongly recommended to decrease infection risk.
