The multiconfiguration molecular mechanics (MCMM) algorithm was used to generate potential and vibrationally adiabatic energy surfaces for excited-state tautomerization in the 1:1 7-azaindole:$H_2O$ complex. Electronic structures and energies for reactant, product, transition state were computed at the CIS/6-31G(d,p) level of theory. The potential and vibrationally adiabatic energies along the reaction coordinate were generated step by step by using 16 high-level Shepard points, which were computed at the CIS/6-31G(d,p) level. This study shows that the MCMM method was applied successfully to make quite reasonable potential and adiabatic energy curves for the excited-state double proton transfer reaction. No stable intermediates are present in the potential energy curve along the reaction coordinate of the excited-state double proton transfer in the 1:1 7-azaindole:$H_2O$ complex, indicating that these two protons are transferred concertedly. The change in the bond distances along the reaction coordinate shows that two protons move very asynchronously to make an $H_3O^+$-like moiety at the transition state.

2013년에 개발된 지능형 철도선형계획 프로그램(ei-Rail)은 주로 해외의 신규 철도건설사업 사전 기획 분석 및 설계 결과 검증 등에 활용되어왔다. 그러나 한국 철도산업의 해외 진출 대상국인 개발도상국에서는 대규모 비용이 소요되는 신규 철도건설사업 보다는 기존 철도의 선형개량을 통한 증속, 또는 단선철도의 복선화 등의 사업이 보다 필요하고 실행가능성이 높은 것으로 판단되며, 이런 유형의 사업수요가 지속적으로 발생하고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 기존의 신규 철도건설 사업 분석기능 중심의 ei-Rail 프로그램에 철도복선화 사업 분석기능을 추가하고자, 철도 복선화사업 모듈을 개발하였다. 기존에 운행 중인 철도 선형자료를 기반으로 복선화 사업의 종류와 규모를 반영하고 대상 지역별 공종 단가를 적용하여 공사비를 산출하고 설계도면 제작을 자동화할 수 있도록 하였다. 그리고 해외의 사례 적용을 통하여 ei-Rail의 복선화 사업 분석기능을 검증하였다. 향후 해외를 대상으로 하는 철도 복선화 사업의 기획 및 분석결과 검증을 보다 효율적으로 수행할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is the primary challenge in renewable energy storage technologies, specifically electrochemical water splitting for hydrogen generation. We report effects of Mo doping into Ni layered double hydroxide (Ni-LDH) microcrystal on electrocatalytic activities. In this study, Mo doped Ni-LDH were grown on three-dimensional porous nicekl foam (NF) by a facile solvothermal method. Homogeneous LDH structure on the NF was clearly observed. However, the surface microstructure of the nickel foam began to be irregular and collapsed when Mo precursor is doped. Electrocatalytic OER properties were analyzed by Linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) and Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The amount of Mo doping used in the electrocatalytic reaction was found to play a crucial role in improving catalytic activity. The optimum Mo amount introduced into the Ni LDH was discussed with respect to their OER performance.

조 등(2004)에 의하여 연안 조위 발생빈도 분포함수로 제시된 쌍봉형 정규분포는 관측조위의 발생빈도와 매우 잘 일치하고 있으나 Monte-Carlo 모의기법을 이용하는 신뢰성 설계과정에서 수백만개의 조위를 발생하는 경우 비현실적인 조위가 발생되어 과대 또는 과도설계가 발생한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 비현실적인 조위발생을 원천적으로 차단하기 위하여 경계조위 상한-하한을 설정하여 분포함수의 범위를 제한하는 이중절단 쌍봉형 정규분포 함수를 제안하였으며, 제안된 함수분포에 포함된 매개변수를 비선형최적화기법을 이용하여 추정-제시하였다. 제안된 분포함수는 기존의 쌍봉형 정규분포에 비하여 뚜렷하게 정량적으로 크게 개선되는 모습을 보이지는 않으나, 신뢰성 설계과정에서 비현실적인 조위발생의 가능성을 제거할 수 있으며, 비현실적인 조위발생으로 유발되는 설계인자의 비현실적인 과대 및 과소평가 가능성도 자동적으로 제거되는 효과를 기대할 수 있는 것으로 파악되었다.

강재형 말뚝기초는 안정적인 지지력 확보와 높은 시공성으로 해양구조물 기초로 널리 활용되고 있다. 일반적으로 설계수명에 도달한 해양구조물은 해체수순을 밟게 되는데 말뚝기초는 높은 인발하중과 경제적인 이유로 예외적으로 현장에 존치되는 경우가 많다. 현장에 존치된 기초는 환경오염뿐만 아니라 신규구조물을 건설하는데 장애요인이 될 수 있으므로 말뚝기초 완전해체를 위한 연구가 필요한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 인발하중을 획기적으로 저감시킬 수 있는 신형식 이중벽 말뚝기초를 제안하고 축소모형실험을 통해 인발하중 저감성능을 실험적으로 평가하였다. 이를 위해 축소된 이중벽 말뚝기초를 제작하고 건조된 모래지반에서 말뚝 설치 및 인발 거동을 모사하였으며, 측정된 인발하중을 동등한 단면의 일반말뚝과 비교하였다. 그 결과, 조밀한 모래지반에서 이중벽 말뚝의 최대 인발력이 일반말뚝에 비해 45% 감소되는 것을 확인하였다. 본 연구를 통해 이중벽 말뚝의 인발하중 저감 성능과 메커니즘을 검증하였으며, 설계수명에 도달한 기초를 완전히 회수할 수 있는 가능성을 확인하였다.

In mammals light input resets the central clock of the suprachiasmatic nucleus by inducing secretion of pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) from retinal ganglion cells (RGCs). We previously showed that thyroid transcription factor 1 (TTF-1), a homeodomain-containing transcription factor, specifically regulates PACAP gene expression in the rat hypothalamus. In the present study we examined the expression of TTF-1 in PACAP-synthesizing retinal cells. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) showed that it is abundantly expressed in RGCs of the superior region of the retina, but in only a small subset of RGCs in the inferior region. Double FISH experiments revealed that TTF-1 is exclusively expressed in PACAP-producing RGCs. These results suggest that TTF-1 plays a regulatory role in PACAP-expressing retinal ganglion cells.

A current flowing through a distribution conductor produces induced voltage, which is harmful to a telecommunication line. Previous research on induced voltage has been focused on single-circuit lines in the distribution system. However, the double-circuit lines, referred to as parallel distribution lines, are widely used in distribution systems because they have significant economic and environmental advantages over single-circuit lines. Therefore, a study on the induced voltage in double-circuit lines is needed. This paper presents a method of calculating the induced voltage in a parallel distribution system using four-terminal parameters and vector analysis. The calculation method is verified by the Electromagnetic Transient Program (EMTP) simulation.

Recently, framed structure is increasingly being used as apartment structure due to the advantages during remodeling. Therefore, the use of lightweight panel as separating wall is increasing. To construct lightweight panel structures with sound insulation performance appropriate to the conditions of each field, measurement of sound reduction index(SRI) through panel structures should be performed. In this study, measurement of SRI through 46 kinds of panel structures was performed in the condition of various factors such as surface density, air space and absorber. The result showed that SRI of panel structures was generally higher by increasing of surface density. In the case of double panel with no absorber, SRI at below critical frequency was gradually increased according to rise of air space. Double panel with absorber make remarkable improvement in SRI at low frequency, but there is a little difference compared with SRI of double panel with no absorber over critical frequency.

Persicaria amphibia as an England native plant, is a rhizomatous perennial, one of the rather amphibious plants. Its aquatic form contains water-soluble sugars, starch, and protein. P. amphibia have up to 18% tannins in stems and rhizomes. Previous studies have confirmed the anti-inflammatory activity of live bacteria roots, but no studies on bioactivity are known. DNA damage responses (DDRs) pathways are considered a crucial factor affecting the alleviation of cellular damage. The ataxia-telangiectasia mutated and Rad3 related (ATM) and checkpoint kinase 2 (Chk2) pathways are the main pathways of DNA damage response. Also, p53 is a key integrator of cellular response to oxidative DNA damage, contributing repair, or leading transcription including apoptosis. In the present study, we conducted an investigation into the inhibitory effects of P. amphibia on oxidative DNA damage for confirming potential to complementary medicine and therapies. In conclusion, P. amphibia can provide protective effects against double-stranded DNA break (DSB) caused by oxidative DNA damage.
