The triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) structure is characterized by a high surface-to-volume (S/V) ratio and the separated internal structure for flow. Combining the different TPMS structures can provide unique flow and strength characteristics. This paper investigates the effects of dimension, density and arrangement of the unit cell of the TPMS on contact and flow areas of combined TPMS structures. Several representative TPMS structures, including primitive, gyroid and diamond structures, are adopted to design gradient and heterogeneous types TPMS structures. The estimation method of contact and flow areas using an image processing technique is proposed. Python software is used to predict contact and flow area. The influence of the combination method of TPMS on contact and flow areas in the contact surface of combined TPMS structures with different shapes is investigated. Based on the results of the investigation, an appropriate combination method of TPMS structures is discussed.

The triply periodic minimum surface (TPMS) shape with a complex geometry can easily manufactured from additive manufacturing processes. The TPMS shape has a high surface-to-volume ratio. In addition, the TPMS shape increases the possibility of the self-circulation when the fluid flows inside the TPMS structure. Due to these reason, the performance of the fluid flow filter can be greatly improved when the TPMS structure is applied to the filter. The aim of this paper is to investigate the influence of the design of the unit cell for TPMS on self-circulation characteristics of air using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). From the results of the CFD, the effects of the shape and the dimension of the unit cell for TPMS on the self-circulation pattern and the pressure difference are examined. Finally, a proper design of the TPMS is discussed from the viewpoint of self-circulation of air.

The Tire Pressure Monitoring System(TPMS) is often used recently. However, the standards and functions are very different. Even though the regulation requires all vehicles install the TPMS, there is no a standard of a Physical and Media access control protocol which provides compatibility with other systems. In this paper, we propose a MAC protocol based on the international standard and an energy efficient hybrid RF system platform. The MAC protocol provides compatibility of the TPMS with other systems and the RF system platform reduces energy consumption significantly.

TPMS(Tire Pressure Monitoring System)는 차량의 주행 또는 정차시 타이어의 압력 또는 온도 등에 따른 이상 유무를 측정하여 수신기의 표시장치에 해당 상황을 나타내주도록 설계된 안전 보조 시스템이다. TPMS의 센서부에서 측정한 데이터를 자동차 내부의 신호처리부로 무선통신을 이용하여 전송하는데, 통신 시에 다양한 간섭으로 인한 통신 장애가 발생할 수 있다. 대표적인 TPMS 간섭으로 아마추어 무선국, 컨테이너 관리용 RFID(Radio-Frequency IDentification), RKE(Remote Keyless Entry) 신호 등을 들 수 있다. 이러한 다양하면서도 높은 전력을 가지는 간섭들을 제거하기 위하여 본 논문에서는 빔형성(Beamforming) 기술을 고려한다. 이에 따른 데이터 구조 및 빔형성기에 알맞는 차량내부의 안테나 배치 등을 제안한다. 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통하여 본 논문에서 제안된 기술의 간섭제거 성능을 확인 할 것이다.

In order to improve the performance of the PM (Particulate Matter) filter, the TPMS structure was used as a flow controller to control the flow entering the filter. Among various TPMS structures, a primitive structure that is easy to utilize 3D printing technique was selected and the effect of unit cell size was analyzed. In addition, numerical analysis was performed and swirl ratio was analyzed to confirm changes in filter inlet flow characteristics that affect changes in filter performance. Unit cell size is closely related to filter performance, and both PM collection efficiency and pressure drop increase as unit cell size decreases. Through quality factor (QF) comparison, which comprehensively evaluate collection efficiency and pressure drop, it was confirmed that when the unit cell size is 5 mm, PM collection efficiency increases, but the flow controller actually reduces filter performance. QF values are similar for unit cell sizes of 10 and 20 mm, and it is advantageous to select the unit cell size among these two considering collection efficiency and operating costs. The filter's collection performance increases due to the increase in swirl flow caused by the primitive structure, and the filter's collection efficiency increases due to the swirl flow that increases throughout the flow field as the unit cell size becomes smaller.

Objectives: This study aimed to demonstrate the tyrosine phosphorylation motif (TPM) and 3' region structure of the Helicobacter pylori CagA gene as well as its SHP-2 binding activity in AGS cells and relation to gastric carcinogenesis. Methods: Sixteen clinical isolate H. pylori strains from eight duodenal ulcer and eight gastric adenocarcinoma patients were studied for CagA repeat sequence EPIYA motifs, C-terminal structure, and western blot analysis of CagA protein expression, translocation, and SHP-2 binding in AGS cells. Results: Except for strain 547, all strains from the gastric adenocarcinoma patients were positive for CagA by PCR and had three EPIYA copy motifs. Western blotting showed that all strains were positive for CagA protein expression (100%), CagA protein translocation (100%), and SHP-2 binding (100%). CagA protein expression was significantly higher in the gastric adenocarcinoma patients than in the duodenal ulcer patients (P=0.0023). CagA protein translocation and SHP-2 binding in the gastric adenocarcinoma patients were higher than those in the duodenal ulcer patients, but no significant differences were found between the two groups (P=0.59, P=0.21, respectively). Conclusions: The TPMs and 3' region structures of the H. pylori CagA gene in the duodenal ulcer and gastric adenocarcinoma patients have no significant differences.

최근 Shellular라는 새로운 극저밀도 재료가 소개되었다. Shellular는 주기적 구조를 가지면서도 한장의 부드러운 곡면의 쉘로 구성되어 있다. 최초의 Shellular는 리쏘그래피를 이용하여 제조되며 3주기최소곡면의 일종인 P-곡면과 유사한 형태를 갖는다. 본 연구에서는 와이어 직조에 기반하여 D-곡면과 유사한 Shellular를 제작하는 새로운 방법을 제시한다. 실험과 유한요소해석을 통하여 압축하중 하의 재료물성을 평가하고 종래의 극저밀도 재료와 비교하였다.
