  • 목 적 : 고에너지 광자선을 이용한 방사선치료 시 발생되는 광중성자는 치료대상인 종양 주위의 인접한 정상조직에서 2차적인 암의 발생에 기인 될 수 있다고 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 방사선치료계획 시에 고려할 수 있는 변수 중 치료방법, 선속평탄여과판, 선량률, 갠트리 각도들을 변환시켰을 때 발생된 광중성자의 선량 변화를 비교 분석하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 실험에는 TrueBeam $ST{\time}TM$(Ver.1.5, Varian, USA)치료기를 사용하였다. 광중성자 측정 장비는 조직등가비례계수기(Tissue Equivalent Proportional Counter : TEPC)인 KTEPC를 이용하였으며, 치료대의 세로 방향으로 조사야 중앙 하단 6cm 지점에서 측정을 실시하였다. 치료방법, 선속평탄여과판의 사용유무, 선량율에 따른 광중성자 선량의 차이를 평가하기 위하여 모든 환자에 대하여 전산화치료계획시스템(Eclipse Ver 10.0, Varian, USA)으로 방사선치료계획을 각각 수립하였다. 치료방법으로는 세기변조방사선치료와 용적변조회전방사선치료로 구분하였으며, 선량율은 400MU/min, 1,200MU/min 및 2,400MU/min에 따른 차이를 평가하였다. 또한 방사선의 입사방향에 따른 광중성자 선량을 측정하였다. 결 과 : 치료방법의 차이에 따라 세기변조방사선치료와 용적변조회전방사선치료로 조사하였을 때 산란 광중성자 평균선량은 각각 $449.7{\mu}Sv$, $2940.7{\mu}Sv$로 측정되었다. 선속평탄여과판의 사용 유무에 따라 Flattening Filter(FF)모드와 Flattening Filter Free(FFF)모드에서의 산란 광중성자 평균선량은 $2940.7{\mu}Sv$, $232.0{\mu}Sv$로 측정되었다. 400, 1200, 2400 MU/min으로 선량률을 변환시켜 조사하였을 때 CASE I은 $3242.5{\mu}Sv$, $3189.4{\mu}Sv$, $3191.2{\mu}Sv$로, CASE II는 $3493.2{\mu}Sv$, $3482.6{\mu}Sv$, $3477.2{\mu}Sv$로, 그리고 CASE III에서 $4592.2{\mu}Sv$, $4580.0{\mu}Sv$, $4542.3{\mu}Sv$로 측정 되었다. $0^{\circ}$부터 $315^{\circ}$까지 $45^{\circ}$간격으로 갠트리 각도를 변환시켰을 때 산란 광중성자 선량은 10MV 광자선에 대하여 최소 $3.2{\mu}Sv$, 최대 $14.7{\mu}Sv$이었으며, 갠트리 각도가 $180^{\circ}$일 때 가장 높게 나타났다. 15MV 광자선의 경우 최소 $369.6{\mu}Sv$ 최대 $448.0{\mu}Sv$이었으며, 역시 갠트리 각도가 $180^{\circ}$일 때 가장 높게 측정되었다. 결 론 : 치료방법의 차이에 따른 실험은 용적변조회전방사선치료가 세기변조방사선치료 보다 산란된 광중성자 선량이 측정점에서 평균 6.5배 높게 측정되었다. 선속평탄여과판의 사용 차이에 따른 실험에서 선속평탄여과판을 사용하였을 때 12.7배 높게 측정되었다. 선량률을 변환에 따른 차이는 큰 차이를 보이지 않았다. 갠트리 각도에 따른 산란 광중성자 선량 측정에서는 광자선이 치료대를 지나는 각도인 $135^{\circ}$, $180^{\circ}$, $225^{\circ}$에서 산란 광중성자 선량이 증가하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. TrueBeam $ST{\time}TM$을 이용한 FFF 모드와 세기변조방사선치료를 한 경우 산란 광중성자가 적게 발생한다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 지속적으로 더 많은 변수에 대한 실험을 계획하고 광중성자 측정에 대한 평가를 통하여, 보다 환자들에게 안전한 방사선치료에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

  • 동축 도파관 안테나에 접촉된 생체의 SAR 패턴을 계산하였고, 여기서 사용한 생체는 균질 및 4층 손실 인체 모델이다. 본 연구에서는 유한차분법 알고리즘과 MUR 및 GPML 흡수경계조건 방정식을 원통좌표계에서 유도 하였다. 또한 매개체에서 홉수전력 패턴을 얻기 위하여 동축 도파판 안테나와 생체모텔 사이의 결합을 유한차분 법에서 MUR과 GPML 흡수경계조건을 사용하여 해석하였다. 온도분포와 일치하는 SAR 분포는 MUR 및 G GPML 홉수경계조건을 사용한 유한차분법에서 정상상태 응답올 사용하여 각 영역에서 계산하였다. MUR 홉수 경계조건을 사용한 유한차분법의 SAR 패턴을 GPML 홉수경계조건을 사용한 유한차분볍의 SAR 패턴과 비교 하였다. 비교 결과, MUR 흡수경계조건을 사용한 SAR 패턴의 침투 깊이가 GPML 흡수경계조건을 사용한 S SAR 패턴의 침투 깊이보다 더 깊다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 현상은 GPML 흡수경계조건에서는 자유공간 의 손실을 고려했기 때문이다. 그렇지만 GPML 흡수경계조건을 사용한 SAR 패턴의 측방향으로의 퍼짐이 M MUR 홉수경계조건을 사용한 SAR 패턴보다 더 작다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

  • 나관중의 소설 삼국지에 등장하는 인물들에 대한 인간관계 네트워크를 구축하고 분석한 결과, 실제 사회 인간관계 및 사회 네트워크의 특성과 마찬가지로 척도 없는 네트워크 및 계층적 네트워크의 특성을 보여주었다. 지금까지 대부분 네트워크에 관한 연구는 정적인 측면을 중심으로 이루어졌다. 왜냐하면, 네트워크는 고정되어 있는 것이 아니라 시간 및 공간에 따라 다양하게 변화함에도 불구하고 동적인 면을 분석하기 위한 데이터가 충분하지 않기 때문이다. 소설 삼국지는 비교적 짧은 역사 속에서 다양한 등장인물(1,119 노드)과 인물들의 이합집산에 의한 다양한 인간관계(3,604 링크) 연결망을 형성하고 있기 때문에 시간에 따른 동적 네트워크의 분석을 위한 좋은 모델이 될 것이다. 본 연구는 시대적으로 형성되는 네트워크 특성을 분석하고, 주요 등장인물들의 상관관계와 등장인물의 가중치를 분석하여 연결망의 동역학적 특성을 살펴보았다. 따라서 본 연구는 실제 인간관계 및 사회 네트워크나 생명체를 구성하고 있는 분자들의 네트워크에 관한 동역학적 특성을 분석할 수 있는 가능성을 제시하고 있다.

  • Mankind has made traditional use of various ocean resources in such several forms as fish, plants food, means of transportation, and military purpose, followed by the recent exploitation of offshore subsoil or sea-bed minerals, energies, and utilization of ocean space. These available ocean resources come from the marine natural environment which has a distinct feature in view of the relationship between human wants and their capacity to meet them. Though these socially basic resources however bring forth the so-called scarcity or differential rent, their communal nature of ownership dissipates free gifts of nature endowed to society as a whole. Thus to maximize these rents and social welfare thereof, rents should be secured and preserved through a well-defined arrangements of property-ownership as well as appropriate comparison of competing uses of marine resources, taking full cognizance of their irreversible adverse effects of a specific choice on the alternatives. Here I showed the sources of rent yielded from the multiple uses of navigation, fishery, mariculture, minerals, and recreation site, and also summarized the presently widely-known analytic tool to measure these rents with emphasis on due care of the telescopic faulty of the appraiser in charge, viewed from the communal point, Finally, as communal property is in strict sense owned by the public at large, notwithstanding the restricted communal ownership at government or local governments control, effectiveness of competition I expect should be kept while transferring claims of these resources from the legal owner to private enterprise as well as while extracting their rent by her. In particular, various national or social objectives look forward to tile maximization of social efficiency. Discretionary system in noncompetitive method thus, is exceptionally suggested because of probable suspicion from the public whether these resources are transferred as a give away or not in discretion. And these realized rent payments, I propose, should be wisely taken advantage of in advancement of scientific research in marine nature to bring an incremental rent therefrom successively.

  • For the silicon oxide $(SiO_x)$ films prepared by using the facing target sputtering (FTS) apparatus that was manufactured to enhance the preciseness of the fabricated thin-film and sputtering yield rate by forming a higher-density plasma in the electrical discharge space for using it as a thin-film passivation system for flexible organic light emitting devices (FOLEDs). The deposition characteristics were investigated under various process conditions, such as array of the cathode magnets, oxygen concentration$(O_2/Ar+O_2)$ introduced during deposition, and variations of distance between two targets and working pressure. We report that the optimum conditions for our FTS apparatus for the deposition of the $SiO_x$ films are as follows: $d_{TS}\;and\;d_{TT}$ are 90mm and 120mm, respectively and the maximum deposition rate is obtained under a gas pressure of 2 mTorr with an oxygen concentration of 3.3%. Under this optimum conditions, it was found that the $SiO_x$ film was grown with a very high deposition rate of $250{\AA}$/min by rf-power of $4.4W/cm^2$, which was significantly enhanced as compared with a deposition rate (${\sim}55{\AA})$/min) of the conventional sputtering system. We also reported that the FTS system is a suitable method for the high speed and the low temperature deposition, the plasma free deposition, and the mass-production.

  • Chogakpos are highly artistic works created by Korean women as a part of the Kyubang culture in the Chosun Dynasty from the late 19th century to the early 20th. Tessellation is a plaid pattern composed of squares that covers a surface or a space with figures completely without any gap or overlap. The present study purposed to make a comparative analysis of the formative pattern of Chogakp and tessellation in order to show the superiority of Korean Kyubang(the women's quarters called Kyubang in the Chosun Dynasty) culture. As for the research method, we analyzed relevant materials to examine the geometric characteristics and formative principles of tessellation. In addition, we analyzed the formative pattern of Chogakpo using Photographs. The scope of this study was limited to 148 old Chogakpos contained in Huh Dong-hwa's 'Yetpojagi'. According to the results of this research, similarities between Chogakpo and tessellation were as follows. First, in a regular polygon, the face was divided into regular triangles, squares and two or more regular polygons. Second, in a polygon, the face was divided into triangles and quadrangles. Third, the symmetry of tessellation was applied to Cintamani pattern Pojagi. Differences between Chogakpo and tessellation were as follows. First, different from Chogakpo, tessellation had various formative patterns utilizing different regular polygons including hexagons. Second, there was no overlapping repetition in tessellation. Third, there was no free pattern in tessellation.

  • Full-scale measurements of wind action on the open roof structure of the WuXi grand theater, which is composed of eight large-span free-form leaf-shaped space trusses with the largest span of 76.79 m, were conducted during the passage of Typhoons HaiKui and SuLi. The wind pressure field data were continuously and simultaneously monitored using a wind pressure monitoring system installed on the roof structure during the typhoons. A detailed analysis of the field data was performed to investigate the characteristics of the fluctuating wind pressure on the open roof, such as the wind pressure spectrum, spatial correlation coefficients, peak wind pressures and non-Gaussian wind pressure characteristics, under typhoon conditions. Three classical methods were used to calculate the peak factors of the wind pressure on the open roof, and the suggested design method and peak factors were given. The non-Gaussianity of the wind pressure was discussed in terms of the third and fourth statistical moments of the measured wind pressure, and the corresponding indication of the non-Gaussianity on the open roof was proposed. The result shows that there were large pulses in the time-histories of the measured wind pressure on Roof A2 in the field. The spatial correlation of the wind pressures on roof A2 between the upper surface and lower surface is very weak. When the skewness is larger than 0.3 and the kurtosis is larger than 3.7, the wind pressure time series on roof A2 can be taken as a non-Gaussian distribution, and the other series can be taken as a Gaussian distribution.

  • This study aims to examine the existing conditions of elderly housing facilities and to understand the characteristics and types of outdoor living environments utilized by the elderly. To achieve this, this study relied on two methods: a descriptive method of researching publications and related scholastic writings, and an empirical study that included a survey of present conditions and interviews with the elderly and their nursing care providers. Additionally, evaluation of usage patterns and physical traces were carried out in twelve cases. First, the study showed that all of the facilities, which are fixed in particular areas, had difficulty providing spatial diversity that met the needs of residences. This means that these areas lack flexibility. Activity programs were, however, carried out in a lively manner in well-equipped spaces. Second, an evaluation of outdoor living environments showed that basic facilities were more than adequate, in general. Consideration of resident's physical strength and taste, however, was evaluated as low, indicating that facilities and spaces should be considered to reflect the ages, physical capacity, diverse tastes and hobbies of the elderly, as well. Third, examining the usage patterns of outdoor living activities of residents, the purposes of using outdoor spaces of elderly housing facilities were mainly 'to take a walk' and 'to engage in simple physical exercise' and the walkway, simple sports facilities, and building entrances were highly utilized. The importance of outdoor living environments values was a mean of 4.07 and satisfaction was 4.17. This indicates that residents thought that outdoor living environments are very important and currently satisfied with them.

  • A focusing grating coupler (FGC) was not fabricated by the 'Continuous Path Control' writing strategy but by an electron-beam lithography system of more general exposure mode, which matches not only the address grid with the grating period but also an integer multiple of the address grid resolution (5 nm), To more simplify the fabrication, we are able to reduce a process step without large decrease of pattern quality by excluding a conducting material or layer such as metal (Al, Cr, Au), which are deposited on top or bottom of an e-beam resist to prevent charge build-up during e-beam exposure. A grating pitch period and an aperture feature size of the FGC designed and fabricated by e-beam lithography and reactive ion etching were ranged over 384.3 nm to 448.2 nm, and $0.5{\times}0.5mm^2$ area, respectively, This fabrication method presented will reduce processing time and improve the grating quality by means of a consideration of the address grid resolpution, grating direction, pitch size and shapes when exposing. Here our investigations concentrate on the design and efficient fabrication results of the FGC for coupling from slab waveguide to a spot in free space.
