  • The construction of shield tunnelling in urban sites is facing serious risks from complex and changeable underground conditions. Construction problems in the sand-clay mixed ground have been more reported in recent decades for its poor control of soil loss in tunnel face, ground settlement and supporting pressure. Since the limitations of observation methods, the conventional physical modelling experiments normally simplify the tunnelling to a plane strain situation whose results are not reliable in mixed ground cases which exhibit more complicated responses. We propose a new method for the study of the mixed ground tunnel through which mixed lays are simulated with transparent soil surrogates exhibiting different mechanical properties. An experimental framework for the transparent soil modelling of the mixed ground tunnel was established incorporated with the self-developed digital image correlation system (PhotoInfor). To understand better the response of face stability, ground deformation, settlement and supporting phenomenon to tunnelling excavation in the sand-clay mixed ground, a series of case studies were carried out comparing the results from cases subjected to different buried depths and mixed phenomenon. The results indicate that the deformation mode, settlement and supporting phenomenon vary with the mixed phenomenon and buried depth. Moreover, a stratigraphic effect exists that the ground movement around mixed face reveals a notable difference.

  • Asymptotic behavior of three-dimensional mixed, periodic and rotating magnetohydrodynamic system is investigated as the Rossby number goes to zero. The system presents the difficulty to be singular and mixed, that is hyperbolic in the vertical direction and parabolic in the horizontal one. The divergence free condition and the spectral properties of the penalization operator are crucial in the proofs. The main tools are the energy method, the Schochet's method and products laws in anisotropic Sobolev spaces.

  • Purpose: This study aimed to develop 360° virtual reality videos and common videos for cardiac arrest recognition. Methods: A sequential mixed methods study was conducted, using qualitative interviews (with a total of seven experts) and a quantitative survey. Results: First, the cardiac arrest situation should be developed within 2-3 minutes after witnessing the patient collapse, for each of the four cardiac arrest videos about apnea, gasping, seizure, gasping, and seizure. Second, the education program should be designed so that the education on cardiac arrest recognition can proceed before CPR practice begins. Conclusion: 360° virtual reality videos and common videos for cardiac arrest recognition can play an important role in the education of the general public about cardiac arrest experience.

  • In this study, intermediate-mixed powders were prepared by loading zirconia powders initially in a ball-mill jar and loading alumina powders afterward; the initial-mixed powders were produced by loading zirconia and alumina powders together in the ball-mill jar. The effect of such differences in mixing method on the mechanical properties was investigated. In intermediate-mixed powders, the volume fraction of large particles slightly increased and, simultaneously, zirconia particles formed agglomerates that, due to early ball-mill loading of the zirconia powders only, were more dispersed than were the initial-mixed powders. For the intermediate-mixed powders, zirconia agglomerates were destroyed more quickly than were initial-mixed powders, so the number of dispersed zirconia particles rose and the inhibitory effect of densification due to the addition of a second phase was more obvious. In the microstructure of intermediate-mixed powders, zirconia grains were homogeneously dispersed and grain growth by coalescence was found to occur with increasing sintering temperature. For the initial-mixed powders, large zirconia grains formed by localized early-densification on the inside contacts of some zirconia agglomerates were observed in the early stages of sintering. The intermediate-mixed powders had slightly lower hardness values as a whole but higher fracture toughness compared to that of the initial-mixed powders.

  • 지난 수십 년 동안 유전형 기술(genotyping technology)의 발달로 개인별 유전자 정보를 얻기 위해 필요한 비용이 감소함에 따라, 다양한 인간 질병의 원인 유전자를 규명하기 위한 많은 유전역학 연구들이 진행되어 왔다. 예를 들어 전장유전체관련분석(genome-wide association studies)은 수백 개에 이르는 표현형(phenotypes)에 대하여 수천 개에 이르는 원인유전자를 규명하였다. 유전체 자료의 홍수로 인하여 대규모 유전체 자료를 분석할 수 있는 다양한 분석 알고리즘에 개발되었으며, 특별히 선형혼합모형은 유전율의 추정부터 관련분석(association studies)에 이르기까지 유전역학 연구에서 광범위하게 활용되고 방법론이었다. 본 논문에서는 유전역학 연구에 있어 빈번하게 활용되는 선형혼합모형의 활용 사례를 나열하고, 각 분석 모형 별 추정치들의 생물학적 의미를 논하고자 한다.

  • Objectives : This study aimed to compare the characteristics of suicide attempts among Korean patients with mixed and non-mixed depression. Methods : Patients who visited the emergency room due to a suicide attempt and participated in the Korean Cohort for the Model Predicting a Suicide and Suicide-related Behavior study were included. Using the Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) and Young Mania Rating Scale (YMRS), 111 patients were classified into the mixed depression (n=46) and non-mixed depression groups (n=65). The Koukopoulos Mixed Depression Rating Scale (KMDRS) score was calculated using the MADRS and YMRS scores. Suicide attempt characteristics were evaluated using the Columbia Suicidal Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) and Suicide Intent Scale (SIS). Results : In the mixed depression group, the reason item among the ideation intensity score of the C-SSRS was higher, and the deterrent item score was lower. Scores on the timing and suicide note items of the SIS were higher, and scores for overt communication items were lower in the mixed depression group. The KMDRS score was positively correlated with the C-SSRS ideation intensity and total SIS score. After adjusting for additional variables, the KMDRS scores had a significant effect on the C-SSRS ideation intensity and total SIS scores. Conclusions : The mixed depression group showed a difference in the intensity of suicidal ideation and suicidal intention compared to those in the non-mixed depression group. The overall suicidal ideation intensity and suicidal intention increased according to the degree of mixed depression.

  • The purpose of this study is to determine the impact of the soil load for artificial ground on a building's structural expenses. Three types of soil - 100% soil, soil mixed with 50% perlite, and 100% artificial soil - were used for this study. A one story concrete steel building specific to each soil load was designed, and then, the cost of steel and concrete used for the design was estimated. As the result of this study, the structural expenses in the case of 5:5 mixed soil can be reduced about 17% compare with 100% soil. Using artificial soil, the structural expenses can be cut about 32% compare to 100% soil and about 12% less when 5:5 mixed soil is used. However, considering total expense which includes the structural expense and soil expense, the expense of 5:5 mixed soil have an increase 25% compared with 100% soil. In the artificial soil, the total expense is 45% more expensive than 100% soil and 17% higher when 5:5 mixed soil is used because of the high unit price of artificial soil. This study expected substantial savings in structural cost as the soil-load was lightened. But, savings were significantly reduced because the unit price of the artificial soil is much more expensive than the price of the natural one. Therefore, further research on methods of reducing the unit price of the artificial soil should be conducted in order to extend green space on to artificial ground.

  • 현재 에지 검출은 여러 분야에서 사용되고 있으며, 대부분의 영상처리의 전처리 과정 및 영상처리에 있어서 필수불가결한 기술이다. 이에 따라 관련 연구가 끊임없이 진행되어 오고 있다. 이러한 에지는 영상의 물체에 대한 크기, 방향, 위치 등의 중요한 영상 요소를 가지고 있다. 이를 검출하기 위한 여러 방법들이 제안되어 왔으며, 그 중 대표적인 방법은 Sobel, Prewitt, Roberts, Laplacian, LoG(Laplacian of Gaussian) 등이 있다. 그러나 이러한 기존의 방법들은 복합잡음이 첨가된 영상에서 에지 검출 특성이 미흡하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 국부 마스크의 크기와 위치에 따라 요소에 대한 중앙값 및 평균값을 이용한 에지 검출 방법을 제안하였다.
