In process of water removing safely from plastic clay, an electric field applied to a wet, porous solid such as day usually causes the rapid dehydration. The water-bearing positive ions move to negative electrode under the d. c. electrical stress or field. Therefore application of electro-osmosis to wet clay could include drying thick and large-scale ceramic body quickly and evenly. The d. c. power supply unit to 60 volts is necessary for safe practice. Also wider contact area and shorter distance between electrodes accelerate effectively the removal of water.

저수지는 국내 영농환경에서 주요한 용수 공급처이며, 저수지의 저수량 파악은 농업용수의 활용 및 관리차원에서 중요하다. 위성영상을 활용한 원격탐사는 저수지와 같이 광역적으로 분포하는 객체에 대하여 정기적인 모니터링을 할 수 있는 효과적인 수단으로, 본 연구에서는 Sentinel-1 Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) 영상을 통해 영상분류 및 영상분할 알고리즘을 적용하여 국내 저수지 53개소의 수표면적 탐지를 수행하였다. 사용한 알고리즘은 Neural Network (NN), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Random Forest (RF), Otsu, Watershed (WS), Chan-Vese (CV)로 총 6가지이며, 드론으로 촬영한 실측 정사영상으로 수표면적 탐지 결과를 평가하였다. 각 알고리즘으로부터 산출된 수표면적과 실측 수표면적간의 상관성은 NN 0.9941, SVM 0.9942, RF 0.9940, Otsu 0.9922, WS 0.9709, CV 0.9736로 나타났으며, 저수지 유효저수량의 규모가 클수록 더 높은 선형 상관관계를 보였다. 혼동 행렬로부터 산출한 정확도, 정밀도, 재현율을 통해 알고리즘간 수표면적 탐지 정확도와 탐지 경향을 분석하였다. 정확도의 경우 각 10만 m³ 미만 저수지에서 WS가 0.8752, 10만~30만 m³에서 Otsu가 0.8845, 30만~50만 m³에서 RF가 0.9100, 50만 m³ 이상에서 Otsu와 CV가 0.9400으로 가장 높은 수치를 보였다. WS의 경우 수표면적을 미탐지하는 경향으로 인해 낮은 재현율을 보였고, NN, SVM, RF의 경우 과대 탐지로 인한 낮은 정밀도를 보였다. SAR 영상을 통한 수표면적 탐지 시 저수지 수표면의 수생식물 및 인공건축물이 미탐지를 발생시키는 오차 요소로 작용함을 분석결과 및 실측영상을 통해 확인하였다.

Background: During hot environment work tasks with whole-body enclosed anti-bioaerosol suit, the combined effect of heavy sweating and exhaled hot humid air may cause the N95 medical respirator to saturate with water/sweat (i.e., water-blocking). Methods: 32 young male subjects with different body mass indexes (BMI) in whole-body protection (N95 medical respirator + one-piece protective suit + head covering + protective face screen + gloves + shoe covers) were asked to simulate waste collecting from each isolated room in a seven-story building at 27-28℃, and the weight, inhalation resistance (R_f), and aerosol penetration of the respirator before worn and after water-blocking were analyzed. Results: All subjects reported water-blocking asphyxia of the N95 respirators within 36-67 min of the task. When water-blocking occurred, the R_f and 10-200 nm total aerosol penetration (P_t) of the respirators reached up to 1270-1810 Pa and 17.3-23.3%, respectively, which were 10 and 8 times of that before wearing. The most penetration particle size of the respirators increased from 49-65 nm before worn to 115-154 nm under water-blocking condition, and the corresponding maximum size-dependent aerosol penetration increased from 2.5-3.5% to 20-27%. With the increase of BMI, the water-blocking occurrence time firstly increased then reduced, while the R_f, P_t, and absorbed water all increased significantly. Conclusions: This study reveals respirator water-blocking and its serious negative impacts on respiratory protection. When performing moderate-to-high-load tasks with whole-body protection in a hot environment, it is recommended that respirator be replaced with a new one at least every hour to avoid water-blocking asphyxia.

The motion of passively floating body, whose keel can have a contact with seabed soil, is under the consideration. The body simulates ice ridge floating in shallow water. The force of seabed soil reaction applied to the grounded keel is estimated taking into account soil embankment near the grounded keel. Two-dimensional trajectories of body motion, the shape of the grooves in seabed and the height of soil embankment are calculated when the motion of the body is caused by semidiurnal $M_2$ tide. The influence of wave amplitude and bottom slope on the shapes of body trajectory and the grooves are analyzed.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate body temperature changes in rabbits anesthetized using water-filtered infrared-A (wIRA). Ten rabbits were used for this study. For the experimental group (wIRA group; wG, n = 5), the experimental equipment was used and irradiated using wIRA. The control group (CG, n = 5) did not have any warming device. There were no significant differences in heart rate, respiration rate, and end tidal CO₂ (EtCO₂) between wG and CG. After 80 min, the core body temperature of wG rabbits was significantly higher than that of CG rabbits. The surface body temperature was significantly higher while receiving wIRA support at all time points after 5 min. In conclusion, in rabbits under inhalation anesthesia, the surface body temperature was better maintained than the core body temperature when using wIRA.

Changes of oxygen consumption of Nile tilapia in relation to different body sizes(average body weight 4 g, 40 g, 120 g and 400 g) and water temperatures ($20^{\circ}C$, $25^{\circ}C$ and $30^{\circ}C$) were investigated by a continuous oxygen monitoring system. Mean oxygen consumption of 4 g, 40 g, 120 g and 400 g Nile tilapia at $20^{\circ}C$ were 318.8, 214.9, 84.1 and 69.4 mg $O_2$/kg fish/hr and that at $25^{\circ}C$ were 435.2, 345.9, 151.5 and 115.9 mg $O_2$/kg fish/hr, and that at $30^{\circ}C$ were 611.1, 538.4, 320.8, and 236.0 mg $O_2$/kg fish/hr, respectively. Oxygen consumption per unit body weight tended to decrease exponentially at all temperatures (P<0.05) as body weigth of the fish increased. Oxygen consumption of this fish at $25^{\circ}C$ was $1.61\pm0.18$ times higher than that at $20^{\circ}C$ and oxygen consumption at $30^{\circ}C$ was $1.53\pm0.27$ times higher than that at $25^{\circ}C$. Oxygen consumption per unit body weight linearly increased with the water temperature increased. Also, oxygen consumption of this fish during day time was higher than that during night time at 12L:12D day light condition. The differences between maximum and minimum daily oxygen consumption of this fish increased with the water temperature increased.

본 연구는 항콕시듐 제제로 광범위하게 쓰이고 있는 nicarbazin이 닭의 고온 스트레스에 미치는 영향을 조사하고자 16수의 SCWL 수탉 성계를 사용하여 실시하였다. 옥수수-대두박 위주의 사료에 두 수준(0 및 125ppm)의 rucarbazin을 첨가하여, 두 처리의 환경온도(21 와 35~$36^{\circ}C$)하에서 4일간의 예비실험 기간을 거친 후, 2일 동안의 시료 및 자료 수집기간을 가졌다. 건물 섭취량과 건물 배설량은 고온 스트레스에 의하여 유의한 영향을 받지 않았으나, ricarbazin 첨가에 의하여 증가하였다. 그러나 건물 대사율은 nicarbazin첨가에 의하여 유의하게 감소하였다. 고온 스트레스는 또한 음수량과 증발에 의한 수분 손실을 증가시켰고, nicarbazin은 이러한 효과를 더욱 심화시켰다. 혈액 pH는 고온하에서 nicarbazin 첨가에 의해 증가되었으며, p$CO_2$는 고온하에서 nicarbazin에 의해 감소되었다. 고온 스트레스는 또한 체온을 상승시켰으며 nicarbazin 첨가는 이러한 효과를 심화시켰다. 이상의 결과를 종합하면, 닭이 고온 스트레스를 받으면 체온이 상승하게 된다. 따라서 닭은 체온 상승을 억제하기 위하여 호흡수를 증가시켜(panting) 수분 증발을 통한 체열 방출을 많게 한다. 그러나 nicarbazin 첨가는 고온하의 수탉 체온 상승 폭을 워낙 크게 하므로, panting에 의한 체열 방출량 증가만으로는 정상 체온을 유지하기가 어렵게 되는 것으로 풀이된다

Biological assessments are the primary tool for evaluating the biological condition of a water body and makes it possible to understand accumulative and long-term effect of stressors. They also provide reliable biological information for which disturbed systems are to be restored. Sustainable water environment is not enough with attaining only the clean water, but it should sustain healthy and diverse aquatic life. Aquatic organisms are affected by various factors, including not only water quality but also habitat condition and stressors, and thus good condition of both physical and chemical water quality is prerequisite for sustaining healthy organisms. Therefore, biological assessment, along with other physical and chemical assessments, are crucial for evaluating the health of a water body. Overall, sustainability of water environment demands the attainment and maintenance of ecological integrity, which is resulted from the combination of physical, chemical and biological integrity. The biological criteria will play very important role in the water resource management and policy issues, and thus bioassessment program should be fully implemented and supported eventually by the law. To keep ecosystem health of water environment safely from the toxic pollutants and other stressors, the following suggestions need to be considered in environmental quality standards in Korea. For the first step, the biological indicators need to be introduced in evaluating river quality condition; they provide a qualitative description of biological condition of water body. Secondly, the biological water quality standards using biotic indices should be developed and implemented under the consideration of characteristics of Korean river systems. Lastly, the ecological status classification regime (ESCR) should be developed and introduced; it could be used in quality assessment of the water environment in general. In developing ESCR, integration of physico-chemical, biological, and habitat parameters should be taken into account.

This study was carried out to investigate the distribution of body composition, and to analyze its relationship to dietary behaviors and life style. The study subjects were divided into 3 age groups; 30' years (n = 78) 40' years (n = 71) and 50' years (n = 44). The data was collected by physical measurement (Inbody 230) and questionnaires. The rate of disease and general characteristics were higher in the 50 year old group than in the other groups. Average amount of body water, protein, mineral and body fat were 29.0 kg (50.4%), 7.7 kg (13.4%), 2.8 kg (4.8%), 18.7 kg (31.5%), respectively. The rate of menopause was significantly different with increasing age. Menopause was 1.3%, 9.1%, 79.6% by age respectively. Body fat percent was significantly increased and body water decreased with age (p < 0.01). The fat composition was higher and the mineral content was lower in 50' year old group. Dietary behavior scores of 30' year old group was significant lower than in the other two groups (p < 0.001). The means of salty eating, skipping meals, fruit intake and food habits total point were significantly higher in the 50 year old group than in the other groups. There were significant positive correlations between age, BMI, waist hip ratio respectively (p < 0.01). There were significant negative correlations between age and body water, body mineral, skeletal muscle (p < 0.01, p < 0.05, p < 0.01). The results of this study suggested that nutritional management and education for adult women differ by age group.
