  • It is only possible through the image analysis of borehole wall and the core recovered from borehole constructed in rock mass that the real information about geologic characteristics in rock mass is directly obtained in primary research. Monitoring apparatus with multi-functional utility has implemented and applied in-situ condition for finding the geologic condition of target area. But, this apparatus is very expensive to be applied at the risk of loss during monitoring and cause hard work for moving them to the determined position. This paper shows the underground imaging from the borehole information obtained by a borehole camera with the simple utility and low cost enough to investigate the characteristics of borehole wall. Monitoring for this has been done in open-pit mine located at the northeastern part of Fukuoka Prefecture in Japan, and finally the three dimensional imaging of geological discontinuity was discussed relative to the field condition.

  • Capture of non-glycoproteins during lectin affinity chromatography is frequently observed, although it would seem to be anomalous. In actuality, lectin affinity chromatography works at post-translational modification (PTM) sites on a glycoprotein which is not involved in protein-protein interactions (PPIs). In this study, serial affinity column set (SACS) using lectins followed by proteomics methods was used to identify PPI mechanisms of captured proteins in human plasma. MetaCore, STRING, Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA), and IntAct were individually used to elucidate the interactions of the identified abundant proteins and to obtain the corresponding interaction maps. The abundant non-glycoproteins were captured with the binding to the selected glycoproteins. Therefore, depletion process in sample pretreatment for abundant protein removal should be considered with more caution because it may lose precious disease-related low abundant proteins through PPIs of the removed abundant proteins in human plasma during the depletion process in biomarker discovery. Glycoproteins bearing specific glycans are frequently associated with cancer and can be specifically isolated by lectin affinity chromatography. Therefore, SACS using Lycopersicon esculentum lectin (LEL) can also be used to study disease interactomes.

  • EP(Electrostatic Precipitator) has been used to keep the natural environment from fly-ash in the industrial fields and operated in intermittent PEC(Pulse Energized Control) mode to improve dust-collecting efficiency. Intermittent PEC mode induces low-frequency harmonic currents into power system, therefore EP transformer vibrates. This continuous transformer vibration developes transformer abnormal audio-noise and if it is too much or operates in the region of natural frequency, transformer will be damaged in the end. EP interruption caused by transformer damage results in power generation stopped, power quality down and economic loss. Therefore, this paper explains harmonic currents and transformer vibration-core vibration, winding vibration, and proposes the measures of suppressing the vibration with EP operated in intermittent PEC mode. And this results is proposed to be used for future EP transformer design or EP control method to operate EP-concerned equipment safely keeping from system faults caused by transformer vibration.

  • In this work, small-size, high-performance solenoid-type RF chip inductors utilizing a low-loss Al$_2$O$_3$core material were investigated. The size of the chip inductors fabricated in this work were 15$\times$10$\times$0.7㎣, 2.1$\times$1.5$\times$10㎣, and 2.4$\times$2.0$\times$1.4㎣ and copper (Cu) wire with 40 ㎛ diameter was used as the coils. High frequency characteristics of the inductance, quality factor, and impedance of developed inductors were measured suing an RF Impedance/Material Analyzer (HP4291B with HP16193A test fixture). It was observed that the developed inductors with the number of turns of 7 have the inductance of 33 to 100nH and exhibit the self-resonant frequency (SRF) of .26 to 1.1 GHz. The SRF of inductors decreases with increasing the inductance and the inductors have the quality factor of 60 to 80 in the frequency range of 300 MHz to 1.1 GHz. In this study, small-size solenoid-type RF chip inductors with high inductance and high quality factor were fabricated successfully. It is suggested that the thin film-type inductor is necessary to fabricate the smaller size inductors at the expence of inductance and quality factor values.

  • One of the core technology in WDM-PON system is a generation and modulation technique of the optical source in Optical Network Unit (ONU). In this paper, we propose a reflective semiconductor optical amplifier (RSOA) as a modulator in WDM-PON system. Its performance is analyzed by simulation and actual experimentation. Using RSOA in WDM-PON system as a modulator, it obtains higher gain compared to the conventional SOA due to the double pass gain effect. Furthermore RSOA can provide high gain with comparatively low input power. This is very helpful when we set up the actually system because using lower input power, it can reduce the load of the driving circuit which makes very economical module structure. Therefore, when RSOA is used as a modulator, not only it gives noise suppression effect, but also provides certain amount of gain as well. In addition, comparing with conventional SOA which gives fairly large insertion loss, RSOA can provides more important merits.

  • 'Special Records' means the records created by the government power authorities like security, investigation, intelligence agencies. Even after the enactment of the Public Records Act, these kinds of records were out of the control of the National Archives of Korea. The reason was certainly complex including the loss of control power caused by the National Archives' low status, limitation of the legislation and lack of positive measures for the transfer of classified records. But core records of the government power authorities should be transferred to the National Archives for the righteous records culture in the democracy. This paper investigates the problems concerned with the transfer of classified records of the special records center, looking for a practical alternative.

  • The attractiveness for weapons usage of the proposed fuel cycle for the PT-SCWR was evaluated in this study using the Figure-of-Merit methodology. It was compared to the attractiveness of other fuel cycles namely, Low Enriched Uranium (LEU), U/Th, Re-enriched Reprocessed Uranium (RepU), and Pu/Th/U. The optimal content of natural uranium, which can be added to Pu/Th to render the produced U-233 unattractive, was found to be 9%. A ranking system to compare the attractiveness of the various fuel cycles is proposed. RepU was found to be the most proliferation resistant fuel cycle for the first 100 years,while, the least proliferation resistant fuel cycle was the originally proposed Pu/Th one. The reactivity feedback coefficients were calculated for all proposed fuel cycles. All studied reactivity coefficients have the same sign implying that all the fuel cycles will behave neutronically in a similar way. The Pu/Th/U fuel was found to have the most negative value of the Coolant Void Reactivity which will help to restore the core to a safe status faster in case of a loss-of-coolant accident. The fuel and moderator temperature coefficients did not show significant differences between the fuels studied.

  • The light extraction technology for improving the light efficiency of OLEDs is the core technology for extracting the light inside the OLEDs to the outside. This study demonstrates a simple method to generate random nanostructures (RNSs) containing high refractive index nanoparticles to improve light extraction and viewing angle characteristics. A simple dry low-temperature process makes the nanostructured scattering layer on the polymer resin widely used in the industry. The scattering layer has the shape of randomly distributed nanorods. To control optical properties, we focused on changing the shape and density of RNSs and adjusting the concentration of high refractive index nanoparticles. As a result, the film of the present invention exhibits a perpendicular transmittance of 85% at a wavelength of 550 nm. This film was used as a scattering layer to reduce substrate mode loss and improve EL efficiency in OLEDs.

  • Microstrip antennas are low profile, are conformable to planar and nonplanar surfaces, are simple and inexpensive to manufacture, mechanically robust when mounted on rigid surfaces and are compatible with MMIC(Monolithic microwave integrated circuit) designs; they have been used in diverse communication systems. The rectangular microstrip patch antenna is designed for a central frequency of 12.5 GHz, and the final product is a $4{\times}1$ array antenna with curvature radius of 200 mm. The microstrip antenna is embedded in a sandwich structure which consists of skin and core material. After impact, the performance of damaged antenna is estimated by measuring the return loss and radiation pattern. The antenna performance was not affected by this impact damage.

  • In the fabrication process of Fe-based amorphous alloy powder cores by pulverization of the melt-spun ribbons and cold compaction, the effects of powder preparation method on the magnetic & electric properties, powder shapes and microstructure of cores have been investigated. The powder cores made by using rotor mill showed low effective permeability as compared to the cores prepared by ball milling. However the frequency dependence and quality factor properties were superior in the case of rotor-milling. Further the powders prepared by rotor mill had homogeneous and round shapes through strong shearing in the sieve ring, while the ball milled powders were inhomogeneous and relatively small. The lower permeability of the powder cores fabricated with rotor mill was considered to be due to the high internal stress occurred by very intensive shearing. Moreover the powder cores produced by rotor-milling showed lower core loss and good frequency dependence of effective permeability possibly due to the higher electrical insulation between magnetic particles. The dc bias property of the powder cores made by rotor-milling was better than the one by ball-milling.
