The spectacular development of AMLCDs, been made possible by a-Si:H technology, still faces two major drawbacks due to the intrinsic structure of a-Si:H, namely a low mobility and most important a shift of the transfer characteristics of the TFTs when submitted to bias stress. This has lead to strong research in the crystallization of a-Si:H films by laser and furnace annealing to produce polycrystalline silicon TFTs. While these devices show improved mobility and stability, they suffer from uniformity over large areas and increased cost. In the last decade we have focused on microcrystalline silicon (${\mu}c$-Si:H) for bottom gate TFTs, which can hopefully meet all the requirements for mass production of large area AMOLED displays [1,2]. In this presentation we will focus on the transfer of a deposition process based on the use of $SiF_4$-Ar-$H_2$ mixtures from a small area research laboratory reactor into an industrial gen 1 AKT reactor. We will first discuss on the optimization of the process conditions leading to fully crystallized films without any amorphous incubation layer, suitable for bottom gate TFTS, as well as on the use of plasma diagnostics to increase the deposition rate up to 0.5 nm/s [3]. The use of silicon nanocrystals appears as an elegant way to circumvent the opposite requirements of a high deposition rate and a fully crystallized interface [4]. The optimized process conditions are transferred to large area substrates in an industrial environment, on which some process adjustment was required to reproduce the material properties achieved in the laboratory scale reactor. For optimized process conditions, the homogeneity of the optical and electronic properties of the ${\mu}c$-Si:H films deposited on $300{\times}400\;mm$ substrates was checked by a set of complementary techniques. Spectroscopic ellipsometry, Raman spectroscopy, dark conductivity, time resolved microwave conductivity and hydrogen evolution measurements allowed demonstrating an excellent homogeneity in the structure and transport properties of the films. On the basis of these results, optimized process conditions were applied to TFTs, for which both bottom gate and top gate structures were studied aiming to achieve characteristics suitable for driving AMOLED displays. Results on the homogeneity of the TFT characteristics over the large area substrates and stability will be presented, as well as their application as a backplane for an AMOLED display.

Water has always played a significant role in the lives of people. In urbanised Rome, with its million people. sophisticated supply systems developed and then fled with the empire. only to be rediscovered later But it was the industrial Revolution commencing in the eighteenth century that ushered in major paradigm shifts In use and altitudes towards water. Rapid and concentrated urbanisation brought problems of expanded demands for drinking supplies, waste management and disease. The strategy of using water from local streams, springs and village wells collapsed under the onslaughts of rising urban demands and pollution due to poor waste disposal practices. Expanding travel (railways. and steamships) aided the spread of disease. In England. public health crises peaks, related to water-borne typhoid and the three major cholera outbreaks occurred in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century respectively. Technological, engineering and institutional responses were successful in solving the public health problem. it is generally accepted that the putting of water into pipe networks both for a clean drinking supply, as well as using it as a transport medium for removal of human and other wastes, played a significant role in towering death rates due to waterborne diseases such as cholera and typhoid towards the end of the nineteenth century. Today, similar principles apply. A recent World Bank report Indicates that there can be upto 76％ reduction in illness when major water and sanitation improvements occur in developing countries. Water management, technology and thinking in Australia were relatively stable in the twentieth century up to the mid to late 1970s. Groundwater sources were investigated and developed for towns and agriculture. Dams were built, and pipe networks extended both for supply and waste water management. The management paradigms in Australia were essentially extensions of European strategies with the minor adaptions due to climate and hydrogeology. During the 1970s and 1980s in Australia, it was realised increasingly that a knowledge of groundwater and hydrogeological processes were critical to pollution prevention, the development of sound waste management and the problems of salinity. Many millions of dollars have been both saved and generated as a consequence. This is especially in relation to domestic waste management and the disposal of aluminium refinery waste in New South Wales. Major institutional changes in public sector water management are occurring in Australia. Upheveals and change have now reached ail states in Australia with various approaches being followed. Market thinking, corporatisation, privatisation, internationalisation, downsizing and environmental pressures are all playing their role in this paradigm shift. One casualty of this turmoil is the progressive erosion of the public sector skillbase and this may become a serious issue should a public health crisis occur such as a water borne disease. Such crises have arisen over recent times. A complete rethink of the urban water cycle is going on right now in Australia both at the State and Federal level. We are on the threshold of significant change in how we use and manage water, both as a supply and a waste transporter in Urban environments especially. Substantial replacement of the pipe system will be needed in 25 to 30 years time and this will cost billions of dollars. The competition for water between imgation needs and environmental requirements in Australia and overseas will continue to be an issue in rural areas. This will be especially heightened by the rising demand for irrigation produced food as the world's population grows. Rapid urbanisation and industrialisation in the emerging S.E Asian countries are currently producing considerable demands for water management skills and Infrastructure development. This trend e expected to grow. There are also severe water shortages in the Middle East to such an extent that wars may be fought over water issues. Environmental public health crises and shortages will help drive the trends.

본 연구는 유류로 오염된 토양의 정화를 위한 생물자극법에서 퇴비의 시용효과를 알아보기 위해 실시되었다. TPH로 오염된 토양에 퇴비를 수준별로 처리 한 후 TPH 함량 변화를 관찰 한 결과, 퇴비 처리량이 증가 할수록 토양 내 TPH 함량이 감소하는 경향이 나타났다. TPH 분해율을 알아보고자 퇴비 처리수준에 따른 TPH 함량 변화를 1차와 2차 kinetics 모델에 적용하여 결정계수(R²)를 비교 한 결과 second order kinetic 모델의 결정계수 값이 잘 적용되었다. 퇴비를 처리하였을 때 seond-order kinetic 모델의 reaction rate constant 값은 퇴비를 30 Mg/ha 이상 처리하였을 때 무처리 보다 4배 정도 높게 나타났으며, 퇴비 처리 수준이 높아질수록 그 값은 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 퇴비의 처리량을 증가시킴에 따라 토양 내 미생물의 수는 증가하는 경향을 나타냈다. 또한 퇴비의 처리량은 토양 내 미생물 수와 TPH 함량의 변화와 밀접한 관계가 있음을 보여주었다. 따라서 TPH로 오염된 토양 내 적합한 양의 퇴비 처리는 토양 내 미생물 수를 증가시켜 TPH 함량의 감소를 가속화시킬 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

다층 구조물의 경우 1층이 연약한 경우 지진 시 1층에 변형이 집중되어 기둥 부재에 심각한 손상이 발생하거나 파괴되어 구조물이 붕괴하는 사례가 발생하게 된다. 국내의 경우 포항지진 당시 필로티 구조물의 손상사례를 예로 들 수 있다. 2016년 국립재난 안전연구원의 "국내 비내진 건축물의 내진보강공법 조사 및 소요비용 분석 연구"에 따르면 민간 철근콘크리트조 건축물 중 주택의 내진화 비율은 38.3 %고, 그 중 2층 구조물 7.1 %에서 6층 96.3 % 그 외 99.4 %로 2~5층 구조물의 경우 내진비율이 50 %이하로 저조한 것으로 보고하였다. 이에 정부는 지원사업을 통해서 내진화율을 개선코자 하고있으나, 종래의 보강법은 여전히 시공비용이 고가이고 긴급시공이 어려운 단점이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 2014년 국토교통부의 연구사업을 통해서 개발된 저렴하고 긴급시공이 가능한 벨크로를 사용한 내진보강법의 성능을 개선하고자 벨크로와 콘크리트 기둥 사이에 고발포의 경질 우레탄 내부 충진을 통해서 벨크로의 초기긴장력을 도입하고, 이를 통해서 콘크리트 구속효과에 따른 벨크로의 연성보강성능 개선을 목표로 이를 평가하기 위한 실험을 수행하였다. 시험체의 최대 연성도를 통한 평가에서 벨크로 내진 보강재의 최대 연성도 증진 효과를 재확인할 수 있었다. 에너지 소산 능력을 통한 평가에서는 VELCRO1 대비 VELCRO2 눈에 띄는 개선을 보인 반면, VELCRO1와 VELCRO2 시험체의 최대 연성도는 큰 차이를 보이지 않았다. 결과적으로 충진재가 사용된 VELCRO2 시험체에서 에너지 소산 능력은 크게 증진되었으나, 최대 연성도 평가에서 최대변위(∆_max)의 증가가 크지 않은 것을 확인하였다. 따라서 내부 충진재 재료의 개선과 균일한 충진재 시공을 개선의 필요성이 확인되었다.

하천 주변 친수구역 조성, 4대강 사업 등과 같은 하천정비 사업으로 인해 하천의 흐름특성은 계속적으로 변동하고 있으며, 각종 오염물질 유입으로 인한 수질사고의 위험이 높아지고 있다. 수질사고 발생시 하천의 흐름특성을 고려해 오염물질의 농도 및 도달시간을 예측해 신속한 방제작업으로 하류로의 영향을 최소화해야한다. 이러한 오염물질의 거동을 추적하기 위해서는 하천의 구간별 확산계수, 분산계수 산정이 필요하며 그중 분산계수는 용존성 오염물질의 확산범위 해석에 사용된다. 오염물질의 거동을 추적하기 위한 기존 실험적 연구사례들은 많은 인력과 비용이 소요되고, 한정적인 장비의 운용으로 공간적으로 높은 해상도의 자료 취득이 어려웠다. 최근에는 RGB드론을 이용한 오염물질의 추적연구가 수행되었지만, RGB영상 역시 분광정보를 한정적으로 수집한다는 한계가 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존 연구들의 한계점들을 보완하기 위해 드론을 활용한 원격탐사 플랫폼에 초분광센서를 탑재하여 기존 접촉식 측정보다 시간적, 공간적으로 고해상도의 자료를 수집하였다. 수집된 시공간(Spatio-temporal) 초분광영상을 활용해 추적자의 농도를 산정하고, 횡분산계수를 도출하였다. 향후 연구를 통해 드론 플랫폼의 한계를 극복하고, 분산계수 산정 기술을 고도화하면 수계로 유출되는 각종 오염물질의 감지 및 다양한 수질항목 및 하천인자의 변화량 감지가 가능할 것으로 기대된다.
