RI-Biomics is a new compound word of radiation technology and Biomics related to the study of life. RI-Biomics is high radiation fusion technology by combining evaluation of pharmacokinetics in vivo (RI-ADME) of new drugs and medical materials using radioisotope and molecular imaging technology using nuclear medicine equipments. RI-Biomics fields are emerging with the increasing usage of radioisotopes (RI). In this paper, we investigated the latest trends of radioisotope using in RI-Biomics fields. The representative radioisotopes are $^{14}C$, $^3H$ and $^{32}P$ for the optimization and the selection of candidates in the development process of new drugs among the RI-Biomics fields. As shown in the status of accumulated income of radioisotopes, using amounts of radioisotopes are showing a tendency to increase every year. $^{14}C$ is 61.6% increase of accumulated income growth rate and $^3H$ increased by 58.8% and $^{32}P$ increased by 33.9% in 2012 compared to 2007. These isotopes are used in a variety of fields as using of $^{14}C$ for microdosing test, development of [$^3H$]cholesterol absorption inhibitors, study of [$^{131}I$]pyronaridine tetraphosphate for malaria therapy. These are going on in vivo test sucessfully. So, clinical research step is expected to begin soon. Therefore, usages of radioisotopes are necessary and need for the evaluation of pharmacokinetics, optimization and the selection of new drug candidates in the development process of new drugs among the RI-Biomics fields. So, using of radioisotopes is predict to increase continuously except for primarily used $^{14}C$, $^3H$.

PURPOSES: The purpose of study is to understand the characteristic of driving noise from the front and rear tire for effective active noise cancellation application. METHODS : As literature review, noise measurement methods were reviewed. Noise measurement conducted at three kind of section by road slope using CPX(Close Proximity Method). Noise data was compared by total sound pressure level and 1/3 octave band frequency sound pressure level. Also, each section was compared by T-test using SPSS. RESULTS : In the case of the uphill section, it was shown that the sound pressure level of the front tire at Sugwang-Ri and Sinchon-RI sections was higher than that of the rear tire in low and high frequency band. In the case of high slope section of Sangsaek-Ri, the sound pressure level of the front tire was higher than that of the rear tire in high frequency. Also, in the case of the downhill section, it was shown that the sound pressure level of the front tire at Sugwang-Ri and Sinchon-RI sections was higher than that of the rear tire in low frequency band. However, the sound pressure levels of both the front and rear tires were approximately the same in the high slope section of Sangsaek-Ri. The result of T-test showed that total sound pressures of the front and rear tires were not different from each other in the case of high slope and high speed. CONCLUSIONS: Road slope was not an important variable for effective active noise cancellation.

The laboratory methods for compaction of soil (KSF 2312) and for moisture of soil (KSF 2306) in combination with the soil density in place by the sand-cone method (KSF 2311) are generally used for compaction control of soils. However, these methods have limitations in number of test and in accuracy. ]n addition, they are time-consuming. Therefore, they are not adequate for speedy control of embankment compaction in a project with huge amount of earthwork. The RI (Radioisotope) gauges for measurement of soil density and/or of soil moisture are widely used for the compaction control of soils in many countries. But in Korea, they have had a limited usage and available informations for uses of RI gauges are insufficient. Therefore, this study promotes efficient and safe use of RI gauges in geotechnical engineering. In this paper, fundamental aspects such as the priciples of RI gauges, gauge inspection techniques and the applicability and limitations of RI gauges for field usage were reviewed. And a new calibration curves suitable for the Korean soils were suggested.

Accelerated aging of engine exhaust system components such as catalytic converters are traditionally performed using an engine/dynamometer test stand. $SwRI^{(R)}'s\;FOCAS^{(R)}$ system reduces or eliminates many of the engine based aging limitations. This paper will describe several studies. These include: 1) replication of engine based catalyst aging cycles with added precision and dependability; 2) catalyst aging with and without lubricating oil effects; 3) effects of lubricant phosphorus on catalyst performance; and 4) the potential to thermally age components beyond the capabilities of engine based systems. The first study includes the development of the SwRI FOCAS system to run programmed aging conditions with or without lubricating oil. A description of the subsystems is given. The second two studies used the SwRI FOCAS system to age catalysts. One study compared thermal-only aging using of the SwRI FOCAS system with equivalent aging on a traditional engine/dynamometer test stand. The other study examined the effect on catalyst performance of two lubricating oils containing different levels of phosphorus, and compared the results to field data generated using the same oils in a fleet of vehicles.

A hydraulic scale model test with movable bed was performed to obtain design data for groins to protect the coast in front of the Sang-ri seadike in Sukmodo, located in the Han-river estuary area. The vertical scale of the model is 1/100 and the horizontal scale 1/250 according to Froude similitude. The result of test for original coast and groins showed that the coast in front of the Sang-ri seadike was eroded by tidal current. Three alternatives for the planning of new groins were tested. It is concluded that the alternative B-3 test scheme was the best plan to protect the coast among others.

The installation and performance test of the ISOL (Isotope Separation On Line) system for the generation and separation of Rare Isotopes (RI) beams is in progress at the Rare Isotope Science Project (RISP), Institute for Basic Science (IBS). The various RI beams generated by the ISOL target/ion source go through the beam lines and separators, and only the RI beam desired by the user is selected and transmitted to the superconducting linear accelerator at the downstream of the ISOL. In the ISOL system, two separators are installed to separate a specific RI beam, and control is performed by the Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System (EPICS). In this study, an EPICS IOC (Input-Output Control) was developed to measure the magnetic field of a dipole magnet for mass separation of a multivalent (n+) RI beam in the A/Q separator, which is one of the ISOL RI beam separators. The operational stability of the A/Q separator was tested through a magnetic field measurement using a Hall probe.

Pulse Doppler ultrasonographic evaluation was performed to investigate the resistive index (RI) of the Interlobar renal artery in 17 dogs (32 kidneys) which were diagnosed with an acute renal failure caused by ochratoxin-A and citrinin contaminated commercial diet. RI was investigated in 7 normal beagle dogs and recovered patients. The mean of RI was resulted as $0.69{\pm}0.04$ in normal dog, however, significantly (p<0.001) increased as $0.76{\pm}0.05$ in renal failure dog. But RI had no relationship with the results of blood chemistry, urine analysis, and excretory urographic image quality. From these results, even though the results of the renal function test were within a normal reference range, it was considered that RI index is more reliable to represent a damaged renal parenchyma, and may have the potential to be a useful clinical tool in monitoring of the renal function.
