In this research, Effect of C/N ratio on nutrient removal in intermittently aerated activated sludge system(IAASS) was investigated with dormitary, building and swine wastewater. Three types (2-stage, 4-stage, modified) of IAASS were operated. Time interval of aeration/nonaeration in IAASS was 1hr/1hr. In treatment of Dormitary wastewater(BOD/T-N ratio : 4.4), Building wastewater (BOD/T-N ratio : 3.14) and swine wastewater(BOD/T-N ratio : 3.84), Nitrogen removal efficiency of 80, 70 and 90.4% was achieved, respectively. Nitrogen removal in IAASS was a great influenced on influent C/N ratio, efficient nitrogen removal was achieved at BOD/T-N ratio over 4. In IAASS operation, $\Delta $BOD mg/L/$\Delta $ nitrogen mg/L ratio was about 4-6. Simultaneous removal of organic, nitrogen and phosphorus in IAASS can achieved. And influent organic was efficiently utilized in denitrification. IAASS could be one of the best alternative process for the retrofit of conventional activated sludge system for the removal of nutrients.

A fixed bed biofilm reactor filled with ceramic media were used to remove nitrogen by selective nitrification (ammonium to nitrite). The effects of experimental conditions (nitrogen load, dissolved oxygen, nitrite ratio, C/N ratio) on denitrification were investigated. The reactor showed more than 80% average T-N removal efficiencies at T-N loading in the range of $1.1{\sim}3.3$ kg $T-N/m^3{\cdot}d$ C/N at the C/N ratio of 1. T-N removal efficiencies increased as nitrite ratio.

$^{18}F$-FDOPA는 뇌 종양의 아미노산 대사를 추적하는 방사성 의약품이다. 본 연구의 목적은 뇌 종양의 아미노산 대사를 영상화 하여 악성 종양을 진단하는 $^{18}F$-FDOPA와 포도당 대사를 통한 $^{18}F$-FDG의 Brain PET/CT 검사 영상의 대조도 분석을 통해 병변의 검출 능력을 비교하고, $^{18}F$-FDOPA Brain PET/CT 검사에서 섭취 시간에 따른 SUV의 변화를 분석하여 최적의 영상 획득 시간을 알아보기 위함이다. $^{18}F$-FDOPA 와 $^{18}F$-FDG 두 영상에서 종양(Tumor)과 소뇌(Cerebellum)의 중심에 각각 약 $350mm^2$의 관심 영역을 설정하여 $SUV_{max}$를 측정하였고, 종양과 소뇌의 $SUV_{max}$ 비율(T/C ratio)을 산출하였고, $^{18}F$-FDOPA 투여 직후 30분 동안 획득한 리스트 수집 방식 데이터(List mode data)를 활용해 2분씩 15프레임으로 나눈 뒤 각 프레임 별로 종양과 소뇌 중심에 $SUV_{max}$를 측정하여 위와 동일한 방법으로 T/C ratio를 산출하여 분석하였다. 종양의 평균 $SUV_{max}$를 비교해 본 결과, $^{18}F$-FDOPA Brain PET/CT 검사에서 $4.2{\pm}0.8$, $^{18}F$-FDG Brain PET/CT 검사에서는 $5.6{\pm}0.7$ 이었다. 또한, T/C ratio는 $^{18}F$-FDOPA 검사에서 $2.1{\pm}0.7$, $^{18}F$-FDG 검사에서는 $1.1{\pm}0.4$ 이었으며, $^{18}F$-FDOPA의 $SUV_{max}$는 $^{18}F$-FDG보다 낮지만 T/C ratio는 높게 나타나 종양 구별 능력이 더욱 뛰어난 것을 알 수 있었다(t=-5.214, p=0.000). $^{18}F$-FDOPA의 섭취 시간에 따른 $SUV_{max}$와 T/C ratio를 분석한 결과, $SUV_{max}$와 T/C ratio의 Peak는 모두 6~8분에서 나타났다. 이를 토대로 본원에서 $^{18}F$-FDOPA Brain PET/CT 검사에서 활용하는 10~30분의 영상과 Peak가 나타나기 시작한 6~26분의 영상을 비교한 결과 SUV와 T/C ratio가 각각 0.2, 0.1 증가하였다. 추후 지속적인 연구를 통해 검사 소요시간의 단축 가능성과 추가적인 스캔 정보 활용을 통한 정확한 진단에도 도움이 될 것으로 사료된다.

Objectives: The purpose of this experiment is to better understand the nitrogen and phosphorus removal ratio according to operating conditions in an iron electrolysis system consisting of an anoxic basin, aerobic basin, and iron precipitation apparatus. Methods: Iron electrolysis consists of an iron precipitation reactor composed of iron plates in oxic and anoxic basins. We studied the interrelation coefficient between T-N and T-P removal rates and F/M ratio, and the C/N ratio and BOD removal rate. Results: The F/M ratio and the T-N and T-P removal rate per unit area have interrelation coefficients of 0.362 and 0.603, respectively. The removal rate per MLVSS and the T-N and T-P removal rate per unit area have respective interrelation coefficients of 0.49 and 0.59. Conclusions: The removal rate of T-N and T-P increased with the increasing F/M ratio in the influent, and they also linearly increased in proportion to the C/N ratio of influent and BOD removal rate of the reactor.

To study the effect of collar-plate reinforcement on the static strength of tubular T-joints under axial loading, fundamental research work is carried out from both experimental test and finite element (FE) simulation. Through experimental tests on 7 collar-plate reinforced and 7 corresponding un-reinforced tubular T-joints under axial loading, the reinforcing efficiency is investigated. Thereafter, the static strengths of the above 14 models are analyzed by using FE method, and it is found that the numerical results agree reasonably well with the experimental data to prove the accuracy of the presented FE model. Additionally, a parametric study is conducted to analyze the effect of some geometrical parameters, i.e., the brace-to-chord diameter ratio ${\beta}$, the chord diameter-to-chord wall thickness ratio $2{\gamma}$, collar-plate thickness to chord wall thickness ratio ${\tau}_c$, and collar-plate length to brace diameter ratio $l_c/d_1$, on the static strength of a tubular T-joint. The parametric study shows that the static strength can be greatly improved by increasing the collar-plate thickness to chord wall thickness ratio ${\tau}_c$ and the collar-plate length to brace diameter ratio $l_c/d_1$. Based on the numerical results, parametric equations are obtained from curving fitting technique to estimate the static strength of a tubular T-joint with collar-plate reinforcement under axial loading, and the accuracy of these equations is also evaluated from error analysis.

The sliding wear behavior of the plasma-sprayed zirconia containing 3 mol% yttria was investigated after the annealing at room temperature to 80$0^{\circ}C$ in various concentrations of humid atmosphere as laboratory, humid, dry argon atmosphere. Both of the friction coefficient and the wear loss increased with increasing temperature up to 80$0^{\circ}C$. Surface morphology of the worn samples changed with annealing temperature. The change of monoclinic/tetragonal (m/t) x-ray peak intensity ratio effected the wear behavior. The m/t ratio had maximum value at 20$0^{\circ}C$ and decreased with increased temperature in laboratory and humid atmosphere. In argon atmosphere the m/t ratio had no maximum value and decreased with increasing temperature. At all the annealing temperature humid atmosphere had more the m/t ratio value than any other atmosphere. The change of toughness was showed the inversed result of m/t ratio change. The results indicated that the resudial stress which was induced by the different amount of phase transformation takes a detrimental role in wear behavior.

This study was to discuss limiting factors influenced on the removal efficiencies of nitrogenous compounds investigated using the polypropyrene media which was to attach microorganism in order to apply the fixed-biofilm process. The main limiting factors are the hydraulic retention time (HRT), C/N ratio, $COD/NO_{3}-N$ ratio and temperature. The hydraulic retention time HRT were 6, 8, 10, 12 hrs and the C/N ratio range was 2.5-9.5. The $COD/NO_{3}-N$ ratio range was 3.2-21.9 and the temperature were 15, 20, 25, 30, $35^{\circ}C$, respectively. The results of this study are summerized as follows. 1. Hydraulic retention time (HRT) to obtain removal efficiencies of T-N higher than 85% had to be 10 hrs above. 2. The removal efficiencies of T-N decreased at C/N ratio from 6.2 to 4.8 in this anoxic-contact aeration system. 3. Denitrification rate decreased at $COD/NO$_{3}$-N$ ratio from 8.0 to 5.0 4. As temperature increased, removal efficiencies of T-N increased.

In this work, fatigue tests by axial loading were carried out to investigate the effect of stress ratio on the growth behaviors of surface fatigue crack for SM45C steel and Al 2024-T4 alloy. The growth behaviors of surface crack have been monitored during fatigue process by measuring system attached CCTV and monitor. When the growth rates of surface crack were investigate by the concept of LEFM based on Newman-Raju's .DELTA.K, the dependence of stress ratio appears both SM45C steel and Al 2024-T4 alloy. Therefore, modified stress intensity factor range, .DELTA.K' [=(1+R)/sup n/.DELTA.K] are intorduced to eliminate the dependence of stress ratio. Using .DELTA.K', it is found that the dependence of stress ratio disappears both SM45C steel and Al 2024-T4 alloy.

The over-preparation of blood for elective surgery causes some problems such as returning of blood, inefficient task and loss of reagents. In recent blood transfusion practice, there has been changing patterns of blood use in elective surgery as various side effects of transfusion have become known and operation techniques are developed. This study was performed to evaluate the optimal utilization of blood for various elective and/or emergency surgery. We surveyed the quantity of blood transmitted to wards, returned to blood bank, and the number of crossmatching test done for the elective surgery of the patients at the D. University Hospital, the tertiary teaching hospital from August 1, 2001 to October 31, 2001. Crossmatched to transfusion ratio (C/T ratio) was calculated, in which C means the unit of accomplished crossmatching test and T means the unit of transfused blood component. The unit of transfused blood was analysed in terms of issuing time, sex, age, clinical department, and blood component type. The usage of bloods for the emergency surgery was also analyzed. In our study, C/T ratio was highest on Monday (1.54) and Tuesday (1.53), and higher in female patients(1.54) than in male patients (1.32). No significant relationship was observed between age groups. Among clinical departments, thoracic and cardiovascular surgery showed the highest C/T ratio (1.54). From above results, we could be sure that the management of transfusion practice was relatively appropriate in recent years, although the entire introduction of type and screen (T&S) method was desirable. If the T&S method is performed, the C/T ratio would be almost 1.00 and it would also relieve the duty of blood bank.
