The flow characteristics of reactor fuel assembly always intrigue the designers and the experimentalists among the myriad phenomena that occur simultaneously in a nuclear core. In this work, the visual experimental method has been developed on the basis of refraction index matching (RIM) and particle image velocimetry (PIV) techniques to investigate the detailed flow characteristics in China fast reactor fuel subassembly. A 7-rod bundle of simulated fuel subassembly was fabricated for fine examination of flow characteristics in different subchannels. The experiments were performed at condition of Re=6500 (axial bulk velocity 1.6 m/s) and the fluid medium was maintained at 30℃ and 1.0 bar during operation. As for results, axial and lateral flow features were observed. It is shown that the spiral wire has an inhibitory effect on axial flow and significant intensity of lateral flow mixing effect is induced by the wire. The root mean square (RMS) of lateral velocity fluctuation was acquired after data processing, which indicates the strong turbulence characteristics in different flow subchannels.

이동 통신에서의 보안은 전자 거래가 급증함에 따라 더욱 중요하게 되었다. 무엇보다도 이동 통신 환경에 적합한 인증 및 키 합의는 보안의 필수 조건이다. 이를 위하여 Diffie-Hellman, EIGamal 등의 공개키 암호 시스템을 기반으로 하는 프로토콜이 제안되었으며, 이들은 대수학의 기반 아래 이산 대수 문제 어려움을 바탕으로 이뤄지는데, 연산 속도가 느리고 키 길이가 길어 이동 통신 환경에 적용하기에는 많은 제약점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이동 통신 환경의 제약점인 제한된 자원들, 제한된 계산력, 제한된 대역폭을 극복할 수 있는 NTRU 기반의 인증 및 키 합의 프로토콜을 제안한다. 이는 잘려진 다항식 환(truncated Polynomial ing)에서 작은 수의 덧셈과 쉬프트 연산만 행하기 때문에 속도가 빠르며 키 생성이 용이하고 쉽다. 또한 NTRU 래티스 상에서의 짧은 벡터 찾는 어려운 문제(SVP/CVP)로 인해 보안성이 강하여 안전하다.

네트워크 상에 전송되는 메시지에 대한 기밀성을 제공하기 위해 암호 시스템의 사용이 점차 증가하고 있으며, 키분배 프로토콜은 안전한 암호 시스템을 구현하는데 가장 필수적인 요소이다. 최근 들어 국내·외에서는 암호화 기능을 제공하는 정보 보안 제품들이 많이 개발되고 있으나, 각 제품에서 사용되는 키 분배 프로토콜의 안전성에 대한 정화한 증명없이 산발적으로 제안되고 있는 실정이다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 최근에 발표된 표준 키 분배 프로토콜 중 타원 곡선 암호 시스템을 이용하는 ANSI X9.63의 키 분배 프로토콜들에 대해 세션키 설정 과정과 특징을 자세히 분석하고, 이를 기반으로 하여 여러 공격자 모델에 대한 각 프로토콜의 안전성을 분석하고자 한다. 또한, 키 분배 프로토콜의 주요 응용분야의 요구사항을 분석하고 각 분야에 가장 적합한 프로토콜을 제안한다.

Plutonium-238 has always been considered as the one of the promising radioisotopes for space nuclear power supply, which has long half-life, low radiation protection level, high power density, and stable fuel form at high temperatures. The industrial-scale production of ²³⁸Pu mainly depends on irradiating solid ²³⁷NpO₂ target in high flux reactors, however the production process faces problems such as large fission loss and high requirements for product quality control. In this paper, a conceptual design study of producing ²³⁸Pu in a multi-purpose high flux reactor was evaluated and analyzed, which includes a sensitivity analysis on ²³⁸Pu production and a further study on the irradiation scheme. It demonstrated that the target structure and its location in the reactor, as well as the operation scheme has an impact on ²³⁸Pu amount and product quality. Furthermore, the production efficiency could be improved by optimizing target material concentration, target locations in the core and reflector. This work provides technical support for irradiation production of ²³⁸Pu in high flux reactors.

Background: In vitro culture of preantral follicles is a promising technology for fertility preservation. Objectives: This study aims to investigate an optimized three-dimensional (3D) fetal bovine serum (FBS)-free preantral follicle culture system having a simple and easy operation. Methods: The isolated follicles from mouse ovaries were randomly divided in an ultra-low attachment 96-well plates supplement with FBS or bovine serum albumin (BSA) culture or encapsulated with an alginate supplement with FBS or BSA culture. Meanwhile, estradiol (E₂) concentration was assessed through enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay of culture supernatants. The diameter of follicular growth was measured, and the lumen of the follicle was photographed. Spindle microtubules of oocytes were detected via immunofluorescence. The ability of oocytes to fertilize was assessed using in vitro fertilization. Results: The diameters were larger for the growing secondary follicles cultured in ultra-low attachment 96-well plates than in the alginate gel on days 6, 8, and 10 (p < 0.05). Meanwhile, the E2 concentration in the BSA-supplemented medium was significantly higher in the alginate gel than in the other three groups on days 6 and 8 (p < 0.05), and the oocytes in the FBS-free system could complete meiosis and fertilization in vitro. Conclusions: The present study furnishes insights into the mature oocytes obtained from the 3D culture of the preantral follicle by using ultra-low attachment 96-well plate with an FBS-free system in vitro and supports the clinical practices to achieve competent, mature oocytes for in vitro fertilization.

Islanding protection of a grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) inverter is a key function for standards compliance. Unintentional islanding results in safety hazards, reliability, and many other issues. Therefore, many anti-islanding schemes have been examined. However, existing anti-islanding schemes have poor power quality and non-detection zone issues. Moreover, most schemes have problems that deteriorate the performance of islanding detection under parallel operation. Therefore, this paper proposes a novel anti-islanding scheme that has negligible power quality degradation and has no non-detection zone and islanding detection under a parallel operation. Both simulation and experimental results validate the proposed scheme.

A new foil bearing, ViscoElastic Foil Bearing(VEFB) is suggested with the need for a high damping foil bearing. Sufficient damping capacity is a key technical hurdle to super-bending-critical operation as well as widespread use of foil bearings into turbomachinery. The super-bending-critical operation of the conventional bump foil bearing and the VEFB is examined, as well as the structural dynamic characteristics. The structural dynamic test results show that the equivalent viscous damping of the VEFB is much larger than that of the bump bearing, and that the structural dynamic stiffness of the VEFB is comparable or larger than that of the bump bearing. The results of super-bending-critical operation of the VEFB indicate that the enhanced structural damping of the viscoelastic foil dramatically reduces the vibration near the bending critical speed. With the help of increased damping resulting from the viscoelasticity, the suppression of the asynchronous orbit is possible beyond the bending critical speed.

정보보호용 디바이스의 부채널 정보인 소비 전력 파형을 이용하면 내장된 비밀 키 뿐만 아니라 동작 명령어를 복구할 수 있음이 밝혀졌다. 최근에는 MLP 등과 같은 딥러닝 모델을 이용한 프로파일링 기반의 부채널 공격들이 연구되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 마이크로 컨트롤러 AVR XMEGA128-D4가 사용하는 명령어에 대한 역어셈블러를 구현하였다. 명령어에 대한 템플릿 파형을 수집하고 전처리하는 과정을 자동화하였으며 CNN 딥러닝 모델을 사용하여 명령-코드를 분류하였다. 실험 결과, 전체 명령어는 약 87.5%의 정확도로, 사용 빈도가 높은 주요 명령어는 99.6%의 정확도로 분류될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

As a result of milling operation, we expect to have burr at the outward edge of workpiece. Also, it causes undesirable problems such as deburring cost, low quality of machined surface, and bottleneck in manufacturing process. Though it is impossible to totally remove burr in machining, it is necessary to plan a machining process that minimizes the occurrence of burr. In this paper, a scheme is proposed which identifies the tool path of the milling operation with minimum burr. In the previous research, a Burr Expert System was developed where the feature identification, the cutting condition identification, and the analysis on exit burr formation are the key steps in the program. The Burr Expert System predicts which portion of workpiece would have the exit burr in advance so that we can calculate the burr length of each milling operation. Here, the critical angle determines whether the burr analyzed is an exit burr or not. So the burr minimization scheme becomes to minimize the burr with critical angle. By iterating all the possible tool paths in certain milling operation, we can identify the tool path with minimum burr.
