The potential of microalgae biofuel has not been realized because of the low productivity and high costs associated with the current cultivation systems. In this study, a new low-cost and transparent attachment material was tested for cultivation of a filamentous algal strain, Stigeoclonium sp., isolated from wastewater. Initially, the different materials tested for Stigeoclonium cultivation in untreated wastewater were nylon mesh, polyethylene mesh, polypropylene bundle (PB), polycarbonate plate, and viscose rayon. Among the materials tested, PB led to a firm attachment, high biomass (53.22 g/m², dry cell weight), and total lipid yield (5.8 g/m²) with no perceivable change in FAME profile. The Stigeoclonium-dominated biofilm consisted of bacteria and extracellular polysaccharide, which helped in biofilm formation and for effective wastewater treatment (viz., removal efficiency of total nitrogen and total phosphorus corresponded to ~38% and ~90%, respectively). PB also demonstrated high yields under multilayered cultivation in a single reactor treating wastewater. Hence, this system has several advantages over traditional suspended and attached systems, with possibility of increasing areal productivity three times using Stigeoclonium sp. Therefore, multilayered attached growth algal cultivation systems seem to be the future cultivation model for large-scale biodiesel production and wastewater treatment.

Emitted CO₂ is an attractive material for microbial electrochemical CO₂ reduction. Microbial electrochemical CO₂ reduction (i.e., microbial electrosynthesis, MES) using biocatalysts has advantages compared to conventional CO₂ reduction using electrocatalysts. However, MES has several challenges, including electrode performance, biocatalysts, and reactor optimization. In this study, an MES system was investigated for optimizing reactor types, counter electrode materials, and CO₂-converting microorganisms to achieve effective CO₂ upcycling. In autotrophic cultivation (supplementation of CO₂ and H₂), CO₂ consumption of Rhodobacter sphaeroides was observed to be four times higher than that with heterotrophic cultivation (supplementation of succinic acid). The bacterial growth in an MES reactor with a single-chambered shape was two times higher than that with a double chamber (H-type MES reactor). Moreover, a single-chambered MES reactor equipped with titanium mesh as the counter electrode (anode) showed markedly increased current density in the graphite felt as a working electrode (cathode) compared to that with a graphite felt counter electrode (anode). These results demonstrate that the optimized conditions of a single chamber and titanium mesh for the counter electrode have a positive effect on microbial electrochemical CO₂ reduction.

Dextran(Mw.:500,000)용액의 한외여과에 있어서, 현재 나권형 모듈의 유로형성체로 사용되는 난류촉진물체를 적용하여 실험한 결과, 난류촉진물체의 mesh가 증가할수록 막투과 flux가 향상되었으며, 난류영역에서는 층류영역에 비해 순환유속과 난류촉진물체의 사용에 따른 막투과 flux에 대한 영향이 상대적으로 적었다. 난류촉진물체의 사용에 따른 막투과 flux 향상율은 사용한 membrane의 종류에 따라 층류영역의 경우 최대 112%, 난류영역의 경우 50%에 달하였다. 또한 난류촉진물체를 사용함으로써 한외여과막의 고분자 용질에 대한 배제 성능을 높일 수 있었으며, 이러한 flux 및 배제 성능 증가 등의 효과들은 높은 조작압력차와 낮은 순환유속(농도분극이 상대적으로 심한 영역)에서 더욱 두드러졌다. 그러나, 난류촉진물체의 mesh 수와 순환유속이 증가함에 따라 한외여과 cell 내에서의 압력손실도 증가하였으며, 특히 난류영역에서는 그 영향이 매우 심하였으므로 실제 공정 설계시 순환유속과 압력차 및 난류촉진물체 형태에 따른 압력손실을 반드시 고려해 주어야 함을 알 수 있었다. 물질전달계수 예측을 위한 기존의 물질전달 상관관계식을 농도분극층에서의 고분자 물질의 물성변화를 고려하고 경계층 저항 모델에 근거하여 보정하였는 바, 기존의 관계식에 비해 오차를 줄일 수 있었으며, 이때의 관계식은 다음과 같았다.$N_{sh}=0.151(N_{Re})^{0.199}(N_{Sc})^{0.22}(N_{Scm})^{0.197}\;(625 $N_{sh}=0.0165(N_{Re})^{0.428}(N_{Sc})^{0.33}(N_{Scm})^{0.223}\;(5015

신축공사의 비용에 대한 부담과 건설된 지 오래되어 노후화가 진행된 철근콘크리트 구조물의 증가로 유지관리의 필요성이 크게 증가하여 점차적으로 보수 보강 분야가 확대되고 있다. 이러한 필요성의 증가로 인해 새로운 보수 보강 기술이 국내 외에서 지속적으로 연구되고 있다. 국내에서는 철근콘크리트 구조물의 보수 보강공법으로 강판접착공법, 섬유보강 (Fiber reinforced plastic, 이하 FRP) 표면부착공법, 외부 프리스트레싱공법 등이 사용되고 있다. 이러한 방법 외 Steel mesh로 보강한 시멘트 모르타르 (Steel Mesh Cement Mortar; SMCM)을 이용한 보수방법을 고려하고자, Steel mesh 의 보강 면적, 그리고 보강 층 수 (number of layer)를 달리하여, 3점 휨 부재 실험을 수행하였다. $1400{\times}500{\times}200$ (mm)의 기본 철근 콘크리트 (RC)를 포함하여 총 5종류의 시편을 제작하였으며, 처짐량을 측정하기 위해, 시편 상부에 LVDT를 설치하였으며, 시편 중앙부에 철근 변형률 게이지와 콘크리트 변형률 게이지, 전단 철근에 철근 변형률 게이지를 부착하였다. 3점 휨 실험 결과, 모든 하중-변위 곡선에서 공통적으로 SMCM으로 보강한 시편이 기본 RC에 비해 최대하중이 더 높은 것을 확인할 수 있었다. SMCM을 두 층, 그리고 기본 RC 하부 전체에 보강을 할 경우, 기본 RC에 비해 최대 하중은 1.18배, 처짐은 최대 1.37배 더 높은 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 시편의 종류마다 조금씩 다른 양상을 보였는데, 이는 SMCM과 RC의 부착 정도의 차이로 인해 결과의 차이가 발생한 것으로 보인다. 특히, 지점부 안쪽으로 부분 보강하고, Steel Mesh를 한 겹으로 보강한 네 번째 경우 (SM-B1)에는, SMCM이 실험 도중 박락되는 현상이 발생하였다. SMCM을 보수 보강 재료로서 활용하기 위해선 RC와의 부착 성능 향상이 필요하다고 판단된다.

A Computational Fluid Dynamics model is presented in this study for the simulation of the complex fluid flows with free surfaces inside the Tuned Liquid Column Dampers in horizontal motion. The characteristics of the fluid model of the TLCD in horizontal motion include the free surface of the multiphase flow and the horizontal moving frame. In this study, the time depend unsteady Standard ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ turbulent model based on Navier-Stokes equations is chosen. The volume of fluid (VOF) method and sliding mesh technique are adopted to track the free surface of water inside the vertical columns of TLCD and treat the moving boundary of the walls of TLCD in horizontal motion. Several model solution parameters comprising different time steps, mesh sizes, convergence criteria and discretization schemes are examined to establish model parametric independency results. The simulation results are compared with the experimental data in the dimensionless amplitude of the water column in four different configured groups of TLCDs with four different orifice areas. The predicted natural frequencies and the head loss coefficient of TLCDs from CFD model are also compared with the experimental data. The predicted numerical results agree well with the available experimental data.

In this paper, a new estimation method is proposed to calculate steering rack axial force using a 3 dimensional tire mesh model when a car is standing on the road. This model is established by considering changes of camber angle and contact patch between the tires and the ground according to steering angle. The steering rack bar axial force is estimated based on the static equilibrium equations of forces and moments. A tire friction force is supposed to act on the center point of the contact patch, and the proportional coefficient of friction depending on contact patch is suggested. Using the proposed estimation method, rack axial force sensitivity analysis is evaluated according to changes of suspension geometry. Then optimal motor power of Motor Driven Power Steering(MDPS) is evaluated using suggested rack forces.

A 3-year-old, 24-kg intact female Border Collie was referred for a toe-touch weight-bearing stance, intermittent weight-bearing lameness, and moderate pain reaction of the right forelimb on physical examination and right humerus olecranon avulsion fracture on diagnostic imaging examination. Surgical repair was performed using tension band wiring to re-attach the triceps tendon and distal olecranon. Migration of the distal olecranon fragment was observed due to comminuted fracture of the fragment 5-days after surgery, and revision surgery was performed. The tension-relieving sutures were passed through the pre-drilled hole in the olecranon, and the polyester mesh was augmented to the suture region, covering the triceps tendon and olecranon drilling hole using the Krackow suture pattern. The elbow joint was immobilized using a type IA transarticular external fixator, which was removed 8 weeks after surgery. Fourteen weeks after surgery, no lameness was observed on gait evaluation. At follow-up after 7 months, the distal olecranon fragment had stabilized, and no lameness was observed.

Background: Abdominal compartment syndrome has multiple etiologies that are not only related to trauma but also any problem condition in the absence of abdominal injury. To determine whether prevention of the abdominal compartment syndrome after celiotomy for trauma victims justifies the use of temporary abdominal coverage with monofilament knitted polypropylene mesh (Malex mesh) in severely injured patients. Method: Medical records at the Ajou University Medical Center were reviewed for a 32-month period from May 1st, 2002 to December 31st, 2004. Twenty-nine consecutive patients requiring celiotomy who were survived until at the end of celiotomy received temporary abdominal coverage and staged abdominal repairs with Malex mesh. One of them was dissecting aortic aneurysm patient and the others were all trauma victims. Malex mesh prosthesis coverage was used in cases of abdominal compartment syndrome due to excessive fascial tension, severe bowel edema and retroperitoneal hemorrhage or edema followed by staged abdominal repairs. Result: Eighteen of twenty-nine patients were survived. Demographic characteristics, injury severity number of abdominal-pelvic bone injuries, mortality rate, complications, number of operations for permanent closure, required time for permanent closure showed no difference between man and women or child and adult. Except one dissecting aortic aneurysm patient, trauma cases showed $3.24{\pm}0.98$ injury sites. All cases that received temporary abdominal coverage and staged abdominal repairs did not show abdominal compartment syndrome. $10.08{\pm}5.85$ days and $2.27{\pm}0.82$ times of operation required making permanent abdominal closure after temporary abdominal coverage followed by staged abdominal repairs. Most of surviving patients have shown antibiotic-resistant organism and fungus infection. Patients who received permanent closure recovered from infectious problem completely. Conclusion: The use of Malex mesh for temporary abdominal coverage in severely injured patients undergoing celiotomy was effective treatment method.

수치해석을 수행할 경우 좀 더 정확한 수치모의를 위하여 해석영역의 특성에 따라 적절하게 요소를 배치하는 것이 필요하다. 본 연구에서 사용한 개별요소법(DEM)은 입자의 마찰력 및 항력을 제외한 반발력과 인장력만을 적용하였다. 초기 쿼드트리(Quad-tree)형식으로 충진된 입자들을 DEM을 이용하여 재배치할 경우 입자의 형상이 원형이기 때문에 입자사이에 존재하는 빈 공간을 최소화 할 수 있다. 결국 입자 중심점의 배치가 정삼각형에 가깝게 되는 특징을 보여준다. 이 재배치된 입자를 대상으로 Delaunay 삼각기법을 이용하여 삼각망을 구성하고, Laplace 보간을 수행하여 격자 품질을 향상시켰다. Laplace 보간 전 후의 형상비(Aspect Ratio: AR)를 비교한 결과 DEM을 이용하여 작성한 격자의 품질도 우수하지만, Laplace보간을 수행한 이후 보다 높은 품질의 격자가 생성되는 것을 확인하였다. 본 연구에서 개발한 기법은 기존의 삼각격자망 생성기법에 비해 다소 계산시간이 오래 걸리는 단점이 있지만, 복잡한 형상과 정확한 지형의 재현을 필요로 하는 파랑 해석용 유한요소 격자망 작성 및 다양한 수치모의 분야에서 그 적용 가능성이 매우 높다고 사료된다.
