Gas detection is necessary for various reasons, including the prevention of gas leakages and the creation of necessary environmental conditions. Among the gas detection methods, leakage of gas can be confirmed using materials that undergo color changes that are easily distinguished by the naked eye. Metal nanoparticles (NPs) experience variations in their absorption wavelengths under the localized surface plasmon effect (LSPR) with mechanical stresses, which change the distance between NPs. In this study, we attempted to detect the presence of gas utilizing the LSPR-related color change of a chain of Au NPs. The assembly of Au NPs, arranged in a chain shape, experienced a color change from dark blue to purple with a change in the distance between the NPs by applying a physical force, i.e., compression, stretching, and gas pressure. As the force of compression and the degree of stretching increased, the absorption wavelength shifted from doublet peaks at 650 and 550 nm to a singlet peak at 550 nm. Further, applying gas pressure caused an identical color change. With this result, we propose a method that could be applied to all gases that require detection based on gas pressure.

Fingerprint authentication identifies individuals based on user specific information. It is widely used as it is convenient, secure and has no risk of leakage, loss, or forgotten. However, the latent fingerprints remaining on the smart device's surface are vulnerable to smudge attacks. We analyze the usage patterns of individuals using smart device and propose methods to reconstruct damaged fingerprint images using fingerprint smudges. We examine the feasibility of smudge attacks with frequent usage situations by reconstructing fingerprint smudges collected from touch screens. Finally, we empirically verify the vulnerability of fingerprint authentication systems by showing high attack rates.

A developed 800kV class composite hollow insulator for $SF_6$ Gas Insulated Switchgear (GIS) was tested as to insulation with their surfaces contaminated. The wet power frequency withstand voltage of the silicone rubber housing was about 135kV at an equivalent salt deposite density of $5kg/m^2$, to sufficiently satisfy the required performance. According to IEC 60507, the salt fog withstand voltage was measured at 565kV, and the highest measured leakage current was below 0.2mA. Therefore, it was clarified that the composite hollow insulator has sufficient insulation performance even when it is contaminated on the surface.

In this paper, the electric properties of amorphous selenium specimen has been investigated. Amorphous selenium was thermally evaporated on the glass plate which had been deposited onto the interface by aluminium as an electrode. On the surface of the amorphous selenium, the aluminium electrode was deposited again in order to make an unit cell for dark current measurement. The dark current was measured while applying the bias voltage across the selenium layer in the range of 0V-2500 Volts. The leakage property of the amorphous selenium was significantly low at even high voltage range so it has good advantage as a X-ray receptor for digital radiography. For further study, the C-V curves measurement according to thicker amorphous selenium layer.

A trauma surgeon is always concerned about child abuse when he or she meets injured children. Abused children will be neglected if trauma surgeons only concentrate on the injured site or physical dynamics. Lately, violence on children has increased in Korea. Therefore, in this study, we considered child abuse through a review of the literatures. An eleven-year-old boy visited the emergency room vomiting with abdominal distension. He had been kicked in the abdomen by his step-mother 10 days earlier. The computed tomography revealed a transected pancreas tail and neck with a large pesudocyst (Fig. 1) and laboratory findings showed an elevated amylase level of more than 6,500 IU/L. Because he complained of severe pain with rebound tenderness on the whole abdomen, he underwent an emergent laparotomy, a distal pancreatectomy of the tail portion with an anti-leakage procedure on the cut surface of the pancreas. However, he underwent a distal pancreatectomy again on the neck portion of the pancreas because of a continuing pseudocyst with severe pain that could not be controlled with conservative managements. After that, his symptoms were improved and he returned to his daily life.

It is indispensable to modern society metal processing since the industrialized rapidly, but it is a metalworking cutting fluid immediately. In addition, this means selecting a emulsion on the basis of quality criteria processing method, the material of the material, cutting depth, cutting speed, Djourou fence Liang, and surface roughness, cutting oil, the shape of the device based on the emulsion, I will be the structure of the tank, filtration equipment also changes. In particular, acting bacteria is now breeding in response to the passage of time due to metal ion degradation due to heat generated hydraulic fluid leakage, humidity tung, during processing, seep from processing material at the time of processing the water-soluble cutting oil for generating the malodor by dropping significantly the performance of the cutting oil to corruption from, sometimes by introducing various additives to suppress spoilage in advance. In this study, we expect the effect of the cost reduction in the extension of fluid replacement cycle through the application of the management apparatus and deep understanding in the management of cutting fluid, the working environment through the understanding and interest of workers in the production site more than anything I try to become useful for the improvement.

We have studied the preparation and the properties of $Ba_{1-x}$Sr$_{x}$TiO$_{3}$(BST) thin films by using the sol-gel method. Through the comparison of the effects of various solvents and additives in making solutions, we establish the production method of the stable solution which generates the high quality of BST film. We also set up the heat-treatment conditions for depositing the BST thin film through the TGA and XRD analyses. Through the comparison of the surface conditions of BST films deposited on Pt/Ta/SiO$_{2}$/Si and Pt/Ti/SiO$_{2}$/Si substrates, we find that Ta is more efficient diffusion barrier of Si than Ti so that Ta layer prevents the formation of hillocks. We fabricate the planar type capacitor and measure the dielectric properties of the BST thin film deposited on the Pt/Ta/SiO$_{2}$/Si substrate. Dielectric constant and dielectric loss tangent at 1V, 10kHz, and leakage current density at 3V of the BST thin film are 339, 0.052 and 13.3.mu.A/cm$^{2}$, respectively.ely.

Because of new requirements related to the employment of SMT(Surface Mounting Technology) manufacturing and the diversity of components on high density PCB(Printed Circuit Boards), Thermal control of the reflow process is required in order to achieve acceptable yields and reliability of SMT assemblies. Accurate control of the temperature distribution during the reflow process is one of the major requirements, especially in lead-free assembly. This study has been performed for reflow process using the commercial CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics) tool for predicting flow and temperature distributions. Porous plate was installed to prevent leakage flow which was one of the major problem of temperature uniformity in the reflow process. There is a separation region where the flow is turned. Outside wall made of porous plate is to prevent and minimize separation region for acquiring uniform temperature during operation. This paper provided design concept from CFD results of the steady state temperature distribution and flow field inside a reflow oven.

The water cooling system for VFD (Variable Frequency Drive) of a fossil fuel power plant was reported to be shut down due to a water leak at the metal connection of the heat-sink to the hoses. In order to identify the cause of the failure, the system was visually inspected, and corrosion products were analyzed with SEM equipped with EDX. The failure was observed repeatedly at the nipples of certain location, suggesting galvanic corrosion. In a U-shaped heat sink with two nipples, for inlet and outlet, only one nipple was corrosively damaged at the tip, while the other was not. Most of the corrosion products were observed at the sound nipple and in the filter, identified as $Cu(OH)_2$. Some other corrosion products, composed of mostly $Cu_2O$, were found at the corrosively attacked nipple. A fair amount of Cl was also detected on the surface of the damaged nipple. It was concluded that galvanic corrosion was occurred due to a current leakage over the whole system, and the damage was accelerated by the accumulated chlorine ions in the cooling water.

The neutron fluxes and dose rates due to radiation streaming from reactor cavities were evaluated at the KNU-1 reactor pressure vessel (RPY) head flange elevation. To find a suitable cross section data set for the evaluation, a benchmark test was performed for three data sets; DLC-23/CASK, DLC-31/FEWG, and DLC-47/BUGLE. The leakage fluxes from the KNU-1 RPV outer surface were calculated with two different methods: 1-D calculation with ANISN, and 2-D calculation with DOT3.5. The Monte Carlo procedures as embodied in the MORSE-CG code combined with the albedo option were applied to predict the radiation distributions in the cavity region. Finally, the activation analysis of the stud bolts was performed to identify the major activation products.
