Currently, the demand for real-time monitoring of water quality has increased dramatically. Total organic carbon (TOC) analysis is a suitable method for real-time analysis compared with conventional biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) methods in terms of analysis time. However, this method is expensive because of the complicated internal processes involved. The photocatalytic titanium dioxide (TiO2)-based TOC method is simpler as it omits more than three preprocessing steps. This is because it reacts only with organic carbon (OC) without extra processes. We optimized the rate between the TiO2 photocatalyst and binder solution and the TiO2 concentration. The efficiency was investigated under 365 nm UV exposure onto a TiO2 coated substrate. The optimized conditions were sufficient to apply a real-time monitoring system for water quality with a short reaction time (within 10 min). We expect that it can be applied in a wide range of water quality monitoring industries.

본 논문에서는 전자기장 노출을 통한 강섬유의 방향 정렬 방법이 휨파괴거동에 미치는 영향을 비교, 분석하였다. 강섬유의 방향을 휨공시체의 종방향으로 정렬할 수 있는 규모의 솔레노이드를 설계, 제작하였다. 설계강도 30MPa의 강섬유보강콘크리트 휨공시체를 제작하였으며, 이를 전자기장에 노출한 공시체와 노출하지 않은 공시체로 구분하여 휨파괴 실험을 수행하였다. 실험변수는 강섬유의 혼입률과 형상비로 하였다. 실험결과, 전자기장에 노출된 시험체의 휨강도, 최대하중에서의 개구변위가 미소하게 증가하였으며, 특히 파괴에너지의 증가가 명확하게 확인되었다. 잔존강도의 증가가 파괴에너지 증가에 가장 큰 영향을 준 것으로 확인되었다.

최근 이동 통신 서비스의 증가로 인해 인류는 다양한 전자파에 동시 노출되어 있다. 그러나 전자파의 인체 영향 연구는 주로 단일 주파수에 대해서 행해졌다. 본 논문에서는 다중 주파수의 전자파를 동시에 노출시킬 수 있는 세포 실험 장치를 제작하였다. 세포 실험 장치는 836.5 MHz 주파수의 CDMA(Code Division Multiple Access) 및 1,950 MHz의 WCDMA(Wideband Code Division Multiple Access) 주파수의 신호를 동시에 발생시킬 수 있도록 광대역 특성을 갖는 radial transmission line 형으로 구성하였다. 변조된 신호는 증폭기, 디지털 감쇄기, RF 결합기를 통하여 원추형 안테나로 전달된다. SAR(Specific Absorption Rate)값은 광학 온도 프로브를 이용하여 petri dish 내 9개 지점에 대하여 3회 측정한 평균값을 이용하여 측정하였다. 측정된 안테나의 반사 손실은 -15dB 이하였고, 단위 입력 전력당 SAR 평균과 표준 편차는 CDMA 주파수에서 $0.105{\pm}0.019$ W/kg, WCDMA 주파수에서 $0.262{\pm}0.055$ W/kg이었다.

광학현미경분석, 주사전자현미경분석 및 적외선분광분석을 이용하여, 열화시간 경과에 따른 유리섬유가 보강된 폴리아미드 66 복합소재의 열 열화 특성을 조사하였다. 열화시간이 증가함에 따라, 인장강도는 열화 초기 약간의 증가 후 점진적으로 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 이러한 결과는 열 열화가 진행됨에 따라 결정화도의 증가, 가교밀도의 증가, 사슬 전단 및 사슬 운동성의 감소 등에 기인한 것으로 판단된다. 적외선분광분석을 통하여, 폴리아미드 66 복합소재 표면상에 열화에 기인한 케톤 피크와 규소 피크의 증가를 관찰하엿다. 또한 세 가지 승온속에서 측정된 열중량분석 결과를 이용하여 폴리아미드 66 복합소재으 열 분해 반응동역학을 분석하였다. 통계학적 기법, UL 746B, Ozawa 및 Kissinger 등 여러 방법을 통해 계산된, 폴리아미드 66 복합소재의 활성화 에너지와 수명 예측간의 상관관계를 조사하였다. 열중량분석으로부터 계산된 활성화 에너지는 가속시험으로 구한 값보다 상대적으로 큰 값을 나타내며, 이는 폴리아미드 66 소재으 수명을 과대 평가하는 결과를 초래하였다. 본 연구에서는 다양한 사용 온도에서의 활성화 에너지를 외삽하여 계산 가능한 지수 패턴의 표준곡선을 개발하였다.

The service life of agricultural concrete structures is designed in about 30 to 100 years, but actual service lift is estimated in an average 18 years. Therefore, as the service life of the agricultural concrete structures increases, necessity of repair by aging from various environment condition exposure increases. This study was to determinate the optimum mix proportion of latex modified repair mortar and to improve the durability performance of agricultural concrete structures. The physical and mechanical tests of latex modified repair mortar were performed. Tests of flow, compressive strength, flexural strength and bond strength tests were conducted. Test results show that the optimum nex proportion of latex modified repair mortar, when used in 5% latex volume fraction (weight of cement), 1.5% antifoaming agent (weight of latex), 0.2% PVA fiber volume fraction, 1:2 (binder-sand ratio), 10% silica fume replacement ratio (weight of cement), could result in best performance for the repair of agricultural concrete structures.

Capsaicin. a vanillyl amide(8-methy1-N-vanilly1-6-nonenamide) with a molecular weight of 305.42, was substance, interrupting the pain conducting pathway Until recently the neurotoxic effects of Capsaicin to adult animals were thought to be limited to the peripheral nervous system. But several reports suggest the possibility of central nervous system changes after Capsaicin administration to the adult rat. Capsaicin desensitization is defined as long lasting, reversible suppression of sensory neuron activity. How fast and for how long the desensitization develops is related to the dose and time of exposure to Capsaicin, and the interval between consecutive dosing. In the long term Capsaicin treatment can lead to morphological degeneration and changes in some small sensory neurons, predominantly unmyelinated C fiber afferent nerve fibers. Clinical interest has recently been roused by evidence that Capsaicin's desensitizing action may be of therapeutic value and that an endogenous Capsaicin-1 ike substance may exist. This study summarizes the fundamental knowledge(mechanism, receptors, et al of Capsaicin) of Capsaicin for physical therapists.

Three dimensional self-assembled graphene hydrogels were easily fabricated by electron beam irradiation (EBI) using an aqueous solution of wool/poly(vinyl alcohol) and graphene oxide (GO). After exposure to various levels of EBI radiation, the highly porous, self-assembled, wool-based graphene hydrogels were characterized using scanning electron microscopy and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy; to determine the gel fraction, degree of swelling, gel strength, kinetics-of-swelling analyses and removal of hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) from the aqueous solution. X-ray diffraction results confirmed that EBI played a significantly important role in reducing GO to graphene. The adsorption equilibrium of Cr(VI) was reached within 80 min and the adsorption capacity was dramatically increased as the acidity of the initial solution was decreased from pH 5 to 2. Changes in ionic strength did not exert much effect on the adsorption behavior.

In this paper, the inter-lamina shear strength (ILSS) of multi-wall carbon nanotube (MWNT) reinforced carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP) and thin-ply composites were verified under low earth orbit (LEO) space environment. CFRP, MWNT reinforced CFRP, thin-ply CFRP and MWNT reinforced thin-ply CFRP were tested after aging by using accelerated ground simulation equipment. The used ground simulation equipment can simulate high vacuum ($2.5{\times}10^{-6}torr$), atomic oxygen (AO, $9.15{\times}10^{14}atoms/cm^2{\cdot}s$), ultraviolet light (UV, 200 nm wave length) and thermal cycling ($-70{\sim}100^{\circ}C$) simultaneously. The duration of aging experiment was twenty hours, which is an equivalent duration to that of STS-4 space shuttle condition. After the aging experiment, ILSS were measured at room temperature ($27^{\circ}C$), high temperature ($100^{\circ}C$) and low temperature ($-100^{\circ}C$) to verify the effect of operation temperature. The MWNT and thin-ply shows good improvement of ILSS at ground condition especially with the thin-ply. And after LEO exposure large degradation of ILSS was observed at MWNT added composite due to the thermal cycle. And the degradation rate was much higher under the high temperature condition. But, at the low temperature condition, the ILSS was largely recovered due to the matrix toughening effect.

A patient table considering x-ray transparency, mechanical safety and compact multi-axis moving mechanism has been developed. The goal of medical imaging technology is to keep radiation exposure of patients during x-raying to a minimum. In order to obtain clear pictures at low dose, however, the x-ray table which supports the patient must be sufficiently permeable to radiation to allow good image resolution. The table top is made of low density foam for x-ray transparent effective area and structural aluminum plate to connect moving mechanism under the table, covered with thin carbon fiber. This sandwich construction is very rigid and lightweight, so the table top can handle relatively heavy load comparing to its cantilevered structure which is unavoidable as long as cooperate with C-arm radiography. To verify the design results finite element static analysis and experimental tests have been done. According to the verification the results well satisfy certification guide lines as a medical device.
