유전체 전위장벽방전방식에 의한 플라즈마 젯의 블렛 형상은 인가되는 유량과 전기장의 크기에 따라 달라지고 이러한 변화는 DBD 플라즈마 젯의 밀도차이에 의한 스펙트럼 분포의 차이로 나타난다. 발생된 플라즈마 젯의 스펙트럼의 분석을 통한 활성종의 발생과 강도의 차이는 장치를 활용하는데 있어서 중요한 요소이다. 본 논문에서는 Ar가스를 이용한 대기압 볼륨 DBD방식의 플라즈마 젯 발생장치를 제안된 설계방법에 따라 구성하였다. 플라즈마 젯의 발생을 위한 유량의 의존도를 규명하기 위한 Ar가스의 유동해석을 시뮬레이션을 통해 확인하였고 프로토타입 시스템에서는 MFC를 통한 유량제어를 통해 최적의 플라즈마 젯 불렛형상을 발생시키고 발생된 플라즈마 젯의 특성을 분석하기 위해 스펙트로미터를 이용한 플라즈마 젯의 특성을 분석하였다. 제안된 시스템의 설계방법을 통한 장치에서 최적의 플라즈마 젯 형상 확립방법과 EOS 상에서 활성종에 대한 결과를 확인하였다.

For proton pencil beam scanning (PBS) technology, the accuracy of the dose distribution in a patient is sensitive to the properties of the incident beam. However, mechanical deformation of the proton therapy facility may occur, and this could be an important factor affecting the proton dose distribution in patients. In this paper, we investigated the effect of deformation on an SC200 proton facility's beam isocenter properties. First, mechanical deformation of the PBS nozzle, L-shape plate, and gantry were simulated using a Finite Element code, ANSYS. Then, the impact of the mechanical deformation on the beam's isocenter properties was evaluated using empirical formulas. In addition, we considered the simplest case that could affect the properties of the incident beam (i.e. if only the bending magnet (BG3) has an error in its mounting alignment), and the effect of the beam optics offset on the isocenter characteristics was evaluated. The results showed that the deformation of the beam position in the X and Y direction was less than 0.27 mm, which meets the structural design requirements. Compared to the mechanical deformation of the L-shape plate, the deformation of the gantry had more influence on the beam's isocenter properties. When the error in the mounting alignment of the BG3 is equal to or more than 0.3 mm, the beam deformation at the isocenter exceeds the maximum accepted deformation limits. Generally speaking, for the current design of the SC200 scanning beam delivery system, the effects of mechanical deformation meet the maximum accepted beam deformation limits. In order to further study the effect of the incident beam optics on the isocenter properties, a fine-scale Monte Carlo model including factors relating to the PBS nozzle and the BG3 should be developed in future research.

ICP source의 성능과 구현 가능성은 impedance와 전기장, 자기장의 공간 분포에 큰 영향을 받는다. ICP source의 impedance는 ICP 안테나와 플라즈마의 impedance에 의해 결정된다. 안테나 설계에 있어서 안테나에 형성되는 고전압을 방지하고 공정 중 급격한 impedance 변화를 방지하기 위해서는 ICP source의 허수 impedance가 $-100\;ohm{\sim}+100\;ohm$의 영역에 존재하는 것이 유리하다. 플라즈마 균일도는 안테나에 흐르는 전류와 전압에 의해 형성되는 전기장 세기와 자기장 세기에 영향을 받는다. 원형 안테나와 대칭성이 개선된 안테나에 대해 전자기 simulation과 플라즈마 밀도의 공간분포를 측정하였으며 안테나 형태에 따른 전자기장과 플라즈마 밀도 분포의 개선을 확인하였다. 반경 방향 균일도를 조절하기 위해서는 일반적으로 지름이 다른 복수개의 안테나를 동심원 상에 배치하는 방법을 사용한다. 각 안테나들을 병렬로 연결한 경우 각각의 안테나의 임피던스에 따른 전류 분배 비율이 상이하며, 분배 비율을 조절하기 위해 코일 또는 capacitor를 연결할 경우 나타나는 현상을 계산하였다.

KSTAR 토카막은 현재 주장치 조립을 완료하고 "최초 플라즈마" 발생과 시운전을 준비하고 있다. 이를 위해 설치되어 있는 연료주입계는 배기 덕트 반대 쪽 한 곳만 주입구로 사용하기 때문에 균일하고 신속한 입자공급이 어렵다. 시운전이 끝나고 기본운전 단계가 되면 단순한 플라즈마 생성이 아니라 일정한 고밀도 토카막플라즈마 상태를 일정시간 고르게 유지해야 하므로 공간적으로 균일한 입자공급과 플라즈마 밀도 변화에 따른 신속한 제어가 가능한 연료공급계로 개선되어야 한다. 이런 개선점을 찾는 작업의 일환으로 우선 D-형 진공용기 및 플라즈마 컬럼을 사각단면 토러스로 묘사하는 모델을 만들고 연료공급 위치와 플라즈마의 전리율 및 배기확률에 따라 공간적인 입자분포가 어떻게 바뀌는지 몬테카를로 계산을 통해 분석했다.

Pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution of DWP20349 and 20351, new quinolones, were examined in rats after a single intravenous and oral administration. Analyses of DWP20349 an d DWP20351 in plasma, tissue, and urine were determined by both HPLC and bioassay(microbiological assay). The plasma concentrations of the drugs declined biexponentially. The terminal half-lives ($t_{1/2\beta}$) of drugs were about 114 min (DWP20349) and 105 min (DWP20351) after intravenous dosing, and were 77 min (DWP20349) and 79 min (DWP20351) after oral dosing. The volume of distrbution at steady-state ($Vd_{ss}$) and total body clearances ($Cl_t$) of DWP20349 and DWP20351 were 760 ml/kg and 1126 ml/kg, and 5ml/min/kg and 10 ml/min/kg, respectively. The extents of bioavailability if DWP20349 and DWP20351 after oral administration were 29% and 28%, respectively. 24 h urinary recoveries measured by bioassay were 1.8% (DWP20349) and 1.3% (DWP20351) after oral dosing, and 2.4% (DWP20349) and 1.9% (DWP20351) after intravenous dosing. Plasma protein binding ratios ranged from 87%-90% (DWP20349) and 61%-68% (DWP20351). These drugs were highly distrbuted by the order of lung, kidney, liver and plasma (DWP20394), and lung, liver, kidney and plasma (DWP20351) after 1 hour orally administered.

This study measured the plasma and liver concentrations of cytokines, the distribution of blood lymphocyte subpopulations (CD4 and CD8), plasma levels of nitrite (NO₃^–) and nitrate (NO₂^–), intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1), cytokine-induced neutrophil chemoattractant 1 (CINC-1), prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), and peritoneal lavage fluid (PLF) levels of monocyte chemotactic protein 1 (MCP-1) and CINC-1 in order to examine the anti-inflammatory activity of the cinnamon extract in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-exposed rats. The plasma concentrations of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) were lower in the cinnamon extract groups than in the control group at both 2 and 5 h after LPS injection. Furthermore, the liver concentrations of IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α were lower in the cinnamon extract groups than in the control group at 5 h after LPS injection. Plasma IL-10 concentrations were higher in the cinnamon extract groups than in the control group at both 2 and 5 h after LPS injection, and liver concentrations of IL-10 did not differ significantly among all treatment groups at 5 h after LPS injection. The distribution of CD4 tended to increase, and that of CD8 tended to decrease in the cinnamon extract groups. The CD4/CD8 ratio was increased in the cinnamon extract groups. The plasma concentrations of NO₃^–/NO₂^–, ICAM-1, CINC-1, and PGE2 and the PLF concentrations of MCP-1 and CINC-1 exhibited a tendency to decrease in the cinnamon extract groups. These results indicate that cinnamon extract can exert functional anti-inflammatory effects.

We introduce Helicon discharge plasma source and Laser Thomson scattering system recently finished an installation in KRISS. Laser Thomson scattering method is promising for diagnostics in Helicon plasma because a measurement by electrical probe typically used has significant errors due to the gyromotion of electrons induced by high magnetic field. However, we found that LTS is affected by magnetic field so that we applied the normalization method for processing data and the results show a clear Maxwellian distribution at various conditions of magnetic field and RF power at low energy part without distortion.

In the PIC simulation of plasma, the fields are commonly calculated on uniform spatial grids using FDM. But, FDM has a difficulty in modeling a complex shaped model. FEM has a good flexibiblity in treating a complex shape, so that we calculated the field by using FEM not FDM. In this paper, the plasma between plane-to-plane electrodes was simulated using FEM and FDM. Comparing the results of those two methods told us that FEM is also valid as a calculating method in PIC plasma simulation. In order to verify the use of FEM, the discharge of rod-to-plane was simulated. There was not a little distortion of the electric field between the electrodes due to the distribution of space charges.

AlSi-Al$_2$O$_3$ composite layer was prepared by plasma spray on steel substrate. The composite powder for plasma spray was prepared by simple mechanical blending. The wear resistance of the composite layers and matrix aluminum alloy were performed in terms of size distribution of ceramic particles. Friction coefficients of AlSi were decreased with incorporation of $Al_2$O$_3$. The tribological properties of coated layers were affected by the size of incorporated $Al_2$O$_3$ particle. The reinforcement of $Al_2$O$_3$ particle into aluminum alloy matrix decreased the friction coefficient as well as wear loss.

Numerical simulations are carried out for flow over a circular cylinder controlled by the momentum forcing which is generated by a pair of plasma actuators symmetrically mounted on the cylinder surface. A popular and empirical plasma model is used for the spatial distribution of momentum forcing. In this study, we consider two different types of actuation, i.e., steady and unsteady (or pulsed) actuation. In the unsteady actuation, the actuation is turned on and off periodically, its frequency being a control parameter. The objective of this study is to investigate the effects of actuator location and actuation frequency on the flow structures and the forces on the cylinder. Results show that the cylinder wake can be effectively controlled by proper actuator location. For example, when the actuators are located at $120^{\circ}$ from the stagnation point, vortex shedding is completely suppressed with the boundary layer almost fully attached to the surface, resulting in drag reduction and lift elimination.
