The objective of the study, to develop adsorbent based purifier for removal of radiological and nuclear contaminants from contaminated water. In this regard, 3-aminopropyl silica functionalized with ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (APS-EDTA) adsorbent prepared and characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and X-ray Diffraction (XRD). Prepared APS-EDTA used for adsorptive studies of Cs(I), Co(II), Sr(II), Ni(II) and Cd(II) from contaminated water. The effect on adsorption of various parameters viz. contact time, initial concentration of metal ions and pH were also analyzed. The batch method has been employed using metal ions in solution from 1000-10000 ㎍/L, contact time 5-60 min., pH 4-10 and material quantities 50-200 mg at room temperature. The obtained adsorption data were used for drawing Freundlich and Langmuir isotherms model and both models were found suitable for explaining the metal ions adsorption on APS-EDTA. The adsorption data were followed pseudo second order reaction kinetics. The maximum adsorption capacity obtained 1.3037-1.4974 mg/g for above said metal ions. The results show that APS-EDTA have great potential to remove Cd(II), Co(II), Cs(I), Ni(II) and Sr(II) from aqueous solutions through chemisorption and physio-sorption.

This research investigated the effect of Si addition on the microstructure, mechanical properties, electric and thermal conductivity of as-extruded Al 6013 alloys. As the content of Si increased, the area fraction of the second phase increased. As the Si content increased, the average grain size decreased remarkably, from 182 (no Si addition) to 142 (1.5Si), 78 (3.0Si) and 77 ㎛ (4.5Si) due to dynamic recrystallization by the dispersed second particles in the aluminum matrix during the hot extrusion. As the Si content increased, the yield strength and ultimate tensile strength increased. The maximum values of yield strength and ultimate tensile strength were 224 MPa and 103 MPa for the 6013-4.5Si alloy. As the amount of Si added increased, the electrical and thermal conductivity decreased. The electrical and thermal conductivity of the Al6013-4.5Si alloy were 44.0 % IACS and 165.0 W/mK, respectively. The addition of Si to Al 6013 alloy had a significant effect on its thermal conductivity and mechanical properties.

Two xanthones and 4-phenylcoumarins were isolated from the twigs of Mesua beccariana (Baill.) Kosterm. Among them, one new xanthone, beccarianin A (1), along with 7-isoprenyl-jacareubin (2), mammea A/AA cyclo F (3), and mammea A/BA cyclo F (4). These structures were determined by spectrometric and spectroscopic methods, HRESIMS data, NMR, and UV spectra. Two xanthones (1-2) and two 4-phenylcoumarins (3-4) were evaluated for their cytotoxic effect on the HeLa cells. Compound 1 showed active activity (IC₅₀ = 8.2 µM), and compounds 3-4 showed moderate activity (IC₅₀ = 12.3 and 15.6 µM, respectively).

In order to provide economic high-quality products to customers in a timely manner, companies have tried much effort to decrease the time period of engineering design and information management. As a part of this effort, we have developed the Drawing Information Management System(DIMS) based ofn GT(Group Technology) that could decrease design processing time by speedy and rational management of design processes. The characteristics of DIMS are as follows: First, the concept of Concurrent Engineering was applied to DIMS. Through LAN, reviewers are able to attach comments to dlectronic documents by anno- tation functions called Mark-up. The reviewer annotations are collected and combind with the original document to revise the documents. Second, we have developed a Classification and Coding(C&C) system suitable for electronic component parts bassed on GT(Group Technology). The C&C system makes both parts and drawing with similar characteriscs into families and helps users search existing documents or create new drawings promptly. Finally, DIMS provides the Engineering BOM(Bill of Material) using the concept of Family BOM based on model options.

자동으로 이미지 안에 존재하는 객체들을 인식하는 문제는 내용 기반 이미지 검색이나 로봇 비전과 같은 다양한 분야들에서 매우 중요한 문제이다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위하여 본 논문에서는 객체의 주요 색상 정보들을 이용하여 실시간으로 이미지 안의 객체들을 인식하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 방법의 전체적인 구조는 다음과 같다. 처음에 MPEG-7 색상 정보 기술자들 중 하나인 주요 색상 정보 기술자를 이용하여 객체의 주요 색상 정보들을 추출한다. 이 때 이 정보는 가우시안 색상 모델링을 통하여 빛이나 그림자와 같은 외부 환경 조건에 좀 더 강인한 색상 정보로 변환된다. 다음으로 변환된 색상 정보들을 기반으로 주요 객체와 입력 이미지와의 픽셀 값차이를 계산하고, 임계값 이상의 값을 가지는 픽셀들을 제거한다. 마지막으로 입력 이미지에서 제거되지 않은 픽셀들을 기반으로 하나의 영역을 생성한다. 결론으로서, 본 논문에서는 제안된 방법에 대한 실험 평가들을 수행 및 분석하고 몇몇 한계점들에 대해서 알아본다. 또한 이 문제들을 해결하기 위한 앞으로의 연구 계획에 대해서 기술한다.

Practical pattern recognition systems should overcome very large class problem. Sometimes it is almost impossible to build every model for every class due to memory and time constraints. For this case, grouping similar models will be helpful. In this paper, we propose GMC(Group Model Clustering) to build a large class Chinese character recognition system. We built hidden Markov models for 10% of total classes, then classify the rest of classes into already trained group classes. Finally group models are trained using group model clustered data. Recognition is performed using only group models, in order to achieve reduced model size and improved recognition speed.

Smart textile industries have been precipitously developed and extended to electronic textiles and wearable devices in recent years. In particular, owing to an increasingly aging society, the elderly healthcare field has been highlighted in the smart device industries, and pressure sensors can be utilized in various elderly healthcare products such as flooring, mattress, and vital-sign measuring devices. Furthermore, elderly healthcare products need to be more lightweight and flexible. To fulfill those needs, textile-based pressure sensors is considered to be an attractive solution. In this research, to apply a textile to the second layer using a pressure sensing device, a novel type of conductive textile was fabricated using vapor phase polymerization of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT). Vapor phase polymerization is suitable for preparing the conductive textile because the reaction can be controlled simply under various conditions and does not need high-temperature processing. The morphology of the obtained PEDOT-conductive textile was observed through the Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FESEM). Moreover, the resistance was measured using an ohmmeter and was confirmed to be adjustable to various resistance ranges depending on the concentration of the oxidant solution and polymerization conditions. A 3-layer 81-point multi-pressure sensor was fabricated using the PEDOT-conductive textile prepared herein. A 3D-viewer program was developed to evaluate the sensitivity and multi-pressure recognition of the textile-based multi-pressure sensor. Finally, we confirmed the possibility that PEDOT-conductive textiles could be utilized by pressure sensors.
