In this study, the adsorption characteristics of cephalomannine on commercial adsorbent Sylopute were investigated using different parameters such as adsorption temperature, time, and initial cephalomannine concentration for the efficient separation of Taxus chinensis-derived cephalomannine by adsorption process. The Temkin isotherm model showed good fit to the equilibrium adsorption data. The adsorption capacity decreased with increasing temperature and the adsorption of cephalomannine onto Sylopute was physical in nature. Adsorption kinetic data fitted well with pseudo-second-order kinetic mode. According to the intraparticle diffusion model, film diffusion and intraparticle diffusion did not play a key role in the entire adsorption process. The process of cephalomannine adsorption onto Sylopute was exothermic and spontaneous. In addition, the isosteric heat of adsorption was constant even with variation in surface loading indicating homogeneous surface coverage.

The adsorption equilibria of oxygen, nitrogen and argon on carbonaceous adsorbent with slit-shaped and randomly etched graphite (REG) pores were calculated by molecular simulation method. Reliable models of adsorbents and adsorbates for adsorption equilibria are important for the correct design of industrial adsorptive separation processes. At the smallest physical pore of $5.6{\AA}$, only oxygen molecules were accommodated at the center of the slit-shaped pore, and from $5.9{\AA}$ nitrogen and argon molecules could be accommodated in the pores. Slit pores showed higher adsorption capacity compared with REG pores with same averaged reenterance pore size due to dead volume and inaccessible volume in defected pores. And it was shown the adsorption capacities of oxygen and argon was same in larger pore size. From calculated adsorption isotherms at 298 K it showed that the adsorption capacity ratio of oxygen to nitrogen is increased as pressure is increased.

The acrylic copolymer was designed and prepared for soft lens with high content. The copolymers were prepared using 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate(HEMA) as a monomer and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate(EGDMA), glycerol dimethacrylate(GD), or glycerol 1,3-diglycerolate diacrylate (GDD) as a cross linking agent. The water content for high water content lens was 46%, which was higher compared to general purpose of 36%. The contact angle decreased from 38.6 to 34.4, which appears hydrophilic surface. The tensile strength decreased from 0.1 Mpato 0.08, then again to 0.05 as hydrophilic properties of cross linking agents increased. No phase separation was observed in the cross section of lens using scanning electron microscope. The real-time infrared technique was used in photo-polymerization. The initial polymerization rate increased from 0.6 to 0.9, depending on crosslinking agent.

The general world model for homogeneous and isotropic universe has been proposed. For this purpose, we introduce a global and fiducial system of reference (world reference frame) constructed on a (4+1)-dimensional space-time, and assume that the universe is spatially a 3-dimensional hypersurface embedded in the 4-dimensional space. The simultaneity for the entire universe has been specified by the global time coordinate. We define the line element as the separation between two neighboring events on the expanding universe that are distinct in space and time, as viewed in the world reference frame. The information that determines the kinematics of the geometry of the universe such as size and expansion rate has been included in the new metric. The Einstein's field equations with the new metric imply that closed, flat, and open universes are filled with positive, zero, and negative energy, respectively. The curvature of the universe is determined by the sign of mean energy density. We have demonstrated that the flat universe is empty and stationary, equivalent to the Minkowski space-time, and that the universe with positive energy density is always spatially closed and finite. In the closed universe, the proper time of a comoving observer does not elapse uniformly as judged in the world reference frame, in which both cosmic expansion and time-varying light speeds cannot exceed the limiting speed of the special relativity. We have also reconstructed cosmic evolution histories of the closed world models that are consistent with recent astronomical observations, and derived useful formulas such as energy-momentum relation of particles, redshift, total energy in the universe, cosmic distance and time scales, and so forth. The notable feature of the spatially closed universe is that the universe started from a non-singular point in the sense that physical quantities have finite values at the initial time as judged in the world reference frame. It has also been shown that the inflation with positive acceleration at the earliest epoch is improbable.

The adsorption of methyl green dye using an activated carbon from an aqueous solution was investigated. Adsorption experiments were carried out as a function of the adsorbent dose, initial concentration, contact time and temperature. The Langmuir isotherm model showed a good fit to the equilibrium adsorption data. Based on the estimated Langmuir separation factor, ($R_L=0.02{\sim}0.106$), this process could be employed as the effective treatment (0 < $R_L$ < 1). It was found that the adsorption was a physical process with the adsorption energy (E) value range between 316.869 and 340.049 J/mol obtained using Dubinin-Radushkevich equation. The isothermal saturation capacity obtained from brunauer emmett teller (BET) model increased with increasing the temperature. The kinetics of adsorption followed a pseudo second order model. The free energy and enthalphy values of -5.421~-7.889 and 31.915 kJ/mol, respectively indicated that the adsorption process follows spontaneous endothermic reaction. The isosteric heat of adsorption increased with the increase of equilibrium adsorption amounts, and the total interaction of the adsorbent - adsorbate increased as the surface coverage increased.

In this paper, I examined specific characteristics of the Tables of Transactions for Records Scheduling(TRS) (記錄物分類基準表 ; Kirokmul-Bulyukijun - Pyo) system by Public Records and Archives Act(PRA Act, No. 5709, 1999). All staffs and employees in governmental agencies of Korea must register, classify and dispose of their official records according to TRS by the Presidential Regulation for the application of PRA Act(No. 17050, 2000). Namely, the criteria of TRS is applicable to all stages of records lifecycle from creation to disposition(transfer to Archives or legal destruction). In the theoretical and methodological area, therefore, it is absolutely important that records managers and archival professionals in Korea make analysis on functions and characteristics of TRS by PRA Act. In the first, my examination take notice of possibility of 'adequate and proper documentation' about activity of the executive organization in TRS system. Other attention is that records management according to TRS means managing of records not only as physical entities but as logical entities which imply content and context of creation and use. In other hand, I wish to account for reasonable separation consideration for continuing utility of archives from current use of records throughout agencies duration Another theme of discussion in this paper is the theoretical framework which give account of TRS's characters. In conclusion, accountability for characteristics of TRS system could have been found in counterproposal view including the concept of Records continuum and the notion of Recordkeeping regime in Australia based on rethinking about Records lifecycle model. In the extent of practical area, more or less, it is imbalanced method that compare TRS by PRA Act to Recordkeeping regime based on Records continuum. Nevertheless, the concept and notion is suitable framework that give account of the prospect of recordkeeping system under PRA Act.as well as the meaningful characteristic of TRS.

Wireless sensor networks are used to monitor and control areas in a variety of military and civilian areas such as battlefield surveillance, intrusion detection, disaster recovery, biological detection, and environmental monitoring. Since the sensor nodes are randomly placed in the area of interest, separation of the sensor network area may occur due to environmental obstacles or a sensor may not exist in some areas. Also, in the situation where the sensor node is placed in a non-relocatable place, some node may exhaust energy or physical hole of the sensor node may cause coverage hole. Coverage holes can affect the performance of the entire sensor network, such as reducing data reliability, changing network topologies, disconnecting data links, and degrading transmission load. It is possible to solve the problem that occurs in the coverage hole by finding a coverage hole in the sensor network and further arranging a new sensor node in the detected coverage hole. The existing coverage hole detection technique is based on the location of the sensor node, but it is inefficient to mount the GPS on the sensor node having limited resources, and performing other location information processing causes a lot of message transmission overhead. In this paper, we propose an Adjacent Matrix-based Hole Coverage Discovery(AMHCD) scheme based on connectivity of neighboring nodes. The method searches for whether the connectivity of the neighboring nodes constitutes a closed shape based on the adjacent matrix, and determines whether the node is an internal node or a boundary node. Therefore, the message overhead for the location information strokes does not occur and can be applied irrespective of the position information error.

We report the discovery of a giant exoplanet in the microlensing event OGLE-2017-BLG-1049, with a planet-host star mass ratio of q = 9.53 ± 0.39 × 10-3 and a caustic crossing feature in Korea Microlensing Telescope Network (KMTNet) observations. The caustic crossing feature yields an angular Einstein radius of θE = 0.52 ± 0.11 mas. However, the microlens parallax is not measured because the time scale of the event, tE ≃ 29 days, is too short. Thus, we perform a Bayesian analysis to estimate physical quantities of the lens system. We find that the lens system has a star with mass Mh = 0.55+0.36-0.29 M⊙ hosting a giant planet with Mp = 5.53+3.62-2.87 MJup, at a distance of DL = 5.67+1.11-1.52 kpc. The projected star-planet separation is a⊥ = 3.92+1.10-1.32 au. This means that the planet is located beyond the snow line of the host. The relative lens-source proper motion is μrel ~ 7 mas yr-1, thus the lens and source will be separated from each other within 10 years. After this, it will be possible to measure the flux of the host star with 30 meter class telescopes and to determine its mass.

Hydrogen purification is generally performed through chemical and physical methods. Among various types of purification method PSA(Pressure Swing Adsorption) is widely used with its purification capacity and economic efficiency. In Korea, most of the hydrogen used in automobiles and power generation fuel cells is purified using PSA. Hydrogen produced in petrochemical complexes has difficulties in transportation. The government is planning to install hydrogen extractors that produce hydrogen directly from consumers in connection with the city gas supply chain, and companies are also installing related research and demonstration facilities one after another. Europe and others have recently established safety standards related to PSA and are making efforts for systematic safety management at the construction and operation stage, but domestic safety standards related to PSA are still insufficient. This study aims to identify problems of existing facilities through surveys and risk assessment by companies operating existing PSA, and to prepare domestic technical standards including them in overseas technical standards to promote the safety of new and existing PSA systems.

In order to improve dredged area, long time and high cost is needed because of bad engineering and physical conditions. And there is no suitable example of pipe mixing method at domestic site. Moreover, applicability and effectiveness of this method is uncertain and shows different results between site and laboratory test. In order to solve these problems, we determined proper grain size distribution and water content range using dredged soil and reformed material (standard sand & material controlling grain size distribution) in the laboratory test. As a result, we confirmed that coefficient of sediment consolidation is increased and there is an improvement about separation sedimentation. Undrained shear strength was derived by water content of reformed dredging soil through regression analysis of test results. We suggest the correlation equation for determining mixing ratio.
