  • A criticality safety analysis was performed for the APR-1400 spent fuel pool region-II to ensure the safe storage of spent fuel, with credit taken for depletion and in-rack neutron absorbers (Metamic panels). PLUS7 fuel assembly was modeled using TRITON-NEWT of SCALE-6.1. The burnup-dependent cross-section library was generated under limiting core-operating conditions with 5%-w U-235 initial enrichment. MCNP5 was used to evaluate the neutron multiplication factor in an infinite array of rack cells with the axially nonuniformly burnt PLUS7 assemblies under normal, abnormal, and accident conditions; including all biases and uncertainties. The main purpose of this study is to investigate reactivity variations due to the critical depletion and reactor operation parameters. The approach, assumptions, and modeling methods were verified by analyzing the contents of the most important fissile and the associated reactivity effects. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) guidance on k-eff being less than 1.0 for spent fuel pools filled with unborated water was the main criterion used in this study. It was found that assemblies with 49.0 GWd/MTU and 5.0 w/o U-235 initial enrichment loaded in Region-II satisfy this criterion. Moreover, it was found that the end effect resulted in a positive bias, thus ensuring its consideration.

  • This paper describes the experimental investigation of steel pallet rack beam-to-column connec-tions. Total behavior of moment-rotation (M-φ) curve and the effect of particular characteristics on the behavior of connection were studied and the associated load strain relationship and corre-sponding failure modes are presented. In this respect, an estimation of SPRBCCs moment and rotation are highly recommended in early stages of design and construction. In this study, a new approach based on Support Vector Machines (SVMs) coupled with discrete wavelet transform (DWT) is designed and adapted to estimate SPRBCCs moment and rotation according to four input parameters (column thickness, depth of connector and load, beam depth,). Results of SVM-WAVELET model was compared with genetic programming (GP) and artificial neural networks (ANNs) models. Following the results, SVM-WAVELET algorithm is helpful in order to enhance the accuracy compared to GP and ANN. It was conclusively observed that application of SVM-WAVELET is especially promising as an alternative approach to estimate the SPRBCCs moment and rotation.

  • The Rkp1/CPC2, a receptor for activated protein kinase C of Schizosaccharomyces pombe, contains seven WD motifs found in the G-protein $\beta$-subunit. A 110-kDa protein was identified to interact with Rkp1/CPC2 by immunoprecipitation and following in vitro binding assay. To examine its kinase activity and binding ability to Rkp1, the $pck1^+$, a PKC homolog of S. pombe, was cloned. Pckl phosphorylated myelin basic protein (MBP) and histone Hl in a phospholipid-dependent and $Ca^{2+}$-independent manner. It was demonstrated that the N-terminal region of Pck1 was responsible for the binding to Rkp1 , thus suggesting that Rkp1 interacted with Pckl to regulate Pckl-mediated signaling in S. pombe.

  • In order to develop an effective methods of electroacupuncture regional analgesia for Cattle, six adult Korean-native cattle, which were healthy and had ordinary perception response, were examined on the study. Using them, there were treated with six different prescription applying on six mendian points including Samyang Rack, Keud Mun, Bu Yang, Sameum Kyo, Backhyo and Hu Hae. The results are summerized as follows. 1 In the case of the acupuncture treatment on Samyang Rack and Keuk Mun located on both fore-legs. the good effect of regional analgesia was obtained toward the anterior part of cattle; on the other hand, when treated with Bu Yang and Sameum Kyo at both hindlegs. the same result were represented toward the posterior part. 2. The level of the electronic current of each electro-acupuncture treatment for bovine regional analgesia was proved to necessitated the same amount of which had given body general electro-acupuncture analgesia. 3. Any significant changes could not find out the hematological and biochemical values of all acupuncture-treated cattle during the experiment. 4. Each elector-acupuncture prescription appeared to be considerably effective for bovine regional analgesia, and also showed the possibility on applying the standing position of cattle for various surgical treatment regardless its operation areas.

  • 본 논문에서는 ANSYS 소프트웨어를 사용하여 회전시료조사대의 진동특성을 공기중 및 수중에서 평가하였다. 수중에서 진동해석에서 사용된 추가질량은 Blevins가 제시한 수식을 이용하여 계산하였다. 본 논문에서 제시한 결과의 타당성을 확인하기 위하여 구해진 결과는 이론적인 식을 사용해 구한 결과와 비교하였다. 유체의 추가질량 효과 때문에 회전시료조사대의 고유진동수는 공기 중에서 보다 수중에서 낮아짐을 확인할 수 있었다. 그리고 회전시료조사대의 고정에 필요한 클램프를 설계하기 위하여 클램프의 압력에 대한 회전시료조사대의 등가응력 및 변위를 계산하였다.

  • A counter gear transmits the rotation angle, so the angular velocity ratio of the gear does not necessarily need to be constant in the meshing process. As a pinion has a small number of teeth when combined with an internal gear for counters, tooth interference can occur with the use of an involute curve. This paper introduces circular arcs that represent a tooth profile and fillet for the profile design of a pinion through the combination of arcs with lines. The straight line of a rack tooth represents the profile of a mating internal gear. Thus, the circular arc and line maintain contact during the rotation of the counter gear. This paper presents an analysis of the meshing of the circular arc tooth and rack tooth along with the properties of the counter gear, such as the change in rotational velocity and amount of backlash. The contact ratio of the counter gear is 1 because the tooth contact occurs between circular arcs and line. The initial position of tooth contact, which denotes the simultaneous contact of two teeth, is found. As the rotation of the pinion, only one tooth keeps the contact situation. This meshing property is analyzed by the geometrical constraints of the tooth profile in contact and the results are presented as graphical diagrams in which tooth-arc movements are superimposed.

  • 본 연구는 완도군 군외면 지역에 수평망식 갯벌참굴 양식을 도입하고자 하는 양식 기술개발의 일환으로서 양식해역의 위생학적 특성을 조사하였다. 해수의 경우 2012년 4월부터 2013년 3월까지 매월 1회 실시하였고, 굴 시료는 높이 90 cm인 가상식 양성망에서 채집하였다. 조사해역의 평균 수온범위와 염분 농도범위는 $8.6-28.0^{\circ}C$이며, 26.2-33.5 psu였다. 해수의 대장균군 및 분변계대장균은 각각 < 1.8-13.0 MPN/100 mL의 범위로, 모두 기준치 43 MPN/100 mL이하를 유지하였다. 한편 굴의 분변계대장균은 기준치를 초과하는 경우는 단 1건에 불과하였다. 강우 발생후, 경과일에 따른 참굴 및 해수의 분변계대장균은 모두 해역평균치로 회복되는 데는 약 5일이 소요되었다. 배수유역의 영향반경은 1-292 m에 불과하여 육상오염원에 의한 영향은 미미하였다. 조사해역은 우리나라 수출용 패류생산해역의 위생학적 수질기준과 미국의 패류양식장에 대한 세균학적 수질기준의 충족하며, 생산된 굴의 경우, 유럽연합 A등급 해역의 위생관리에 충족되는 것으로 확인되었다.

  • LNG는 주된 기화기인 해수를 이용하는 해수식 기화기를 이용하여 가스 상태로 소비자에 공급되고 있다. 그러나 겨울철 해수 온도가 $5^{\circ}C$이하로 저하되면 수중 연소식 기화기를 사용하게 되며 이 때 막대한 LNG 기화 소요 비용이 발생하게 된다. 이를 절감하기 위하여 현재의 해수식 기화기의 1단 해수공급을 2단으로 공급하는 공정을 고안하여 그 효과를 분석하였다. 해석 결과, 6m 전열관의 외부에 해수를 2단으로 3m씩 가열할 때 온도가 $1.8^{\circ}C$가 저하되어 해수 온도 $2.5^{\circ}C$까지도 LNG의 기화온도를 $0^{\circ}C$이상으로 배출할 수 있는 것으로 해석되었다. 인천 생산기지에 이 공정이 적용된다면 연간 동계 운전비용 절감량은 LNG 11,770 Ton, 절감액은 117.6억 원으로 분석되었다. LNG를 전량 수입하는 국내 여건에서는 해수 2단 공급 공정을 적용한다면 막대한 에너지와 비용을 절감할 수 있는 매우 효과적인 공정이 될 수 있음을 알 수 있다.

  • 울진 1&2호기의 사용후 핵연료 중간저장을 위한 기존 저장조용량확장 방안으로서 maximum density rack (MDR)에 consolidated fuel을 저 장하여 현 9/3 노심에서 32/3으로 확장할 경우 방사능 농도가 적정기준 이하로 유지될 수 있는지 여부를 분석하였다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 정화계통의 연속적 운전방식과 주기적 운전방식에 대한 저장용수중의 방사능 농도계산을 위한 두 가지 계산 모델을 만들어 상호비교 하였다. 이 결과 두 경우 모두 32/3 노심저장에 대하여 기존 정화계통으로는 기준치인 5$\times$1-$^{-4}$ $\mu$Ci/ml이하로 유지시킬 수 없었다. 따라서 기존의 시설변경이 불가피하며 그 방안으로 사용후 핵연료 저장조에서의 양이온 탈염기 수를 증가시키는 방법이 타당한 것으로 나타났다.
