This study investigated the changes in water quality parameters and microbial colonies when ozone was applied to a semi-recirculating aquaculture system (semi-RAS) for the olive flounder Paralichthys olivaceus (500 g in average weight). Concentrations of ozone-produced oxidants (OPO) in rearing tanks were maintained at 0, 0.014, 0.025 mg/L as Cl₂ for 26 days. Except total ammonia nitrogen, nitrite nitrogen, nitrate nitrogen, phosphate phosphorus, chemical oxygen demand, and total suspended solids decreased significantly with increasing OPO concentration in daily and weekly monitoring (P<0.05). Colony forming unit (CFU) counts of heterotrophic marine bacteria decreased in an OPO concentration-dependent manner. Overall reduction rates of microbial colonies in the treatments were 80% higher than those of the control (P<0.05). During the experiment, the OPO concentration-driven ozonation was reliably practiced without any adverse effects on the animals cultured in semi-RAS. Considering the biohazard, operating cost, and stability of ozonation, an OPO concentration of 0.014 mg/L would be sufficient to control water quality parameters and microbial colonies in a semi-RAS.

스텔스 기술은 적진에서 항공기나 함정의 생존 가능성을 향상시키고 임무 수행 능력을 향상 시킬 수 있다. 본 논문의 목적은 섬유강화 복합재료를 이용하여 하중지지가 가능한 곡면부 형상을 갖는 저피탐지 구조를 제안하고 군사적 활용을 위한 전방위 스텔스 플랫폼의 개발 가능성을 보여주는 것이다. 본 연구에서는 곡면을 갖는 물체의 레이더 반사면적을 줄이기 위해서 기존의 circuit analog 흡수체에 기반을 둔 전자파 흡수구조를 개발하였다. 먼저 상용 3차원 전자기장 해석 프로그램을 이용하여 사각 주기격자 패턴의 전도성 고분자 층을 갖는 전자파 흡수구조를 설계하고 성능을 해석하였다. 다음으로 섬유강화 복합재료와 전도성 고분자 재료를 이용하여 설계된 반원통형 전자파 흡수구조를 제작하였다. 저항성 시트로 작용하는 주기격자 패턴층을 제작하기 위해서 PEDOT를 기반으로 하여 폴리우레탄을 바인더로 갖는 전도성 고분자 페이스트를 사용하였다. 마지막으로 제작된 RAS의 전자파 흡수 성능을 평가하기 위해 POSTECH의 compact range 장비를 이용하여 레이더 반사면적을 측정하였다.

This study compared the productivity of fish and vegetables grown using the hybrid biofloc technology-aquaponics (HBFT-AP), a semi-recirculating aquaculture system (SRAS), and hydroponics (HP). For the study of fish productivity (HBFT-AP vs. SRAS), fish were provided feed containing 3.0% monobasic potassium phosphate (MKP) for 18 weeks. After the 18-week feeding trial, the average weight of the sampled population (n=100) was not significantly different (P>0.05), while hematocrit (PCV, %), hemoglobin (Hb, g/dL), and plasma K (mEq/L) were significantly different (P<0.05) between the two groups (HBFT-AP: 47.83%, 15.48 g/dL, and 1.39 mEq/L; SRAS 34.83%, 11.81 g/dL, and 2.48 mEq/L). Leaf vegetable productivity (HBFT-AP vs. HP) was compared in three experiments (EXP 1-3), and slower growth was observed in both groups in EXP 2, in which pH was maintained at 5.0 or less throughout the experiment. During the 18-week feeding trial, total ammonia nitrogen (TAN), $NO_3-N$, and $PO_4-P$ levels increased with time in the HBFT-AP system, while the concentration of $NO_2-N$ remained below 0.1 mg/L throughout the study.

This study investigated the effects of ozone-produced oxidants (OPO) on the growth, hematology, and histology of olive flounder Paralichthys olivaceus (average weight 500 g), raised in an ozonated semi-recirculating aquaculture system. The system was ozonated to maintained OPO concentrations of 0.004 (Control), 0.014 (OPO15), and 0.025 (OPO25) mg $Cl_2/L$ in culture tanksfor 26 days. The specific growth rate, feed conversion ratio, and survival rate did not significantly differ among the groups (P>0.05), while the daily feeding rate decreased OPO-dose-dependently (P<0.05). OPO appeared to affect the gill, hepatopancreas, and kidney tissues of fish from ozonated tanks. Hematologically, OPO affected some blood indices. The levels of chloride, glucose, glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase, and glutamic pyruvic transaminase were significantly increased in the ozonated groups, while the total cholesterol and cortisol decreased dose-dependently. These results imply that long-term exposure of olive flounder to an OPO concentration ${\geq}0.014mg\;Cl_2/L$ might result in damage to the gill, hepatopancreas, and kidney tissues and cause physiological stress, albeit with no apparent short-term effects on growth or survival.

Brain tumor surgery may be difficult, but it is also incredibly important. The technological improvements for traditional brain tumor surgeries have always been a focus to improve the precision of surgery and release the potential of the technology in this important area of the body. The need for precision during brain tumor surgery has led to an increase in Robotic-assisted surgeries (RAS). One of the challenges to the widespread acceptance of RAS in the neurosurgery is to recognize invisible tumor accurately. Therefore, it is important to detect brain tumor size and location because surgeon tries to remove as much tumor as possible. In this paper, we proposed brain tumor detection procedures for MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) system. A method of automatic brain tumor detection is needed to accurately target the location of the lesion during brain tumor surgery and to report the location and size of the lesion. In the qualitative assessment, the proposed method showed better results than those obtained with other brain tumor detection methods. Comparisons among all assessment criteria indicated that the proposed method was significantly superior to the threshold method with respect to all assessment criteria. The proposed method was effective for detecting brain tumor.
