The effect of ginseng components on the potassium depleted cardiomyopathic rat heart was investigated. In the perfused heart experiment using Langendorff apparatus, the deterioration rate of contriactile force of potassium depleted rat heart (low potassium diet group) was faster than that of normal rat heart and ginseng components showed the ability to slow the deterioration rate of potassium depleted hearts. Both sialic acid contents in carcolemmal ghost and sialyltransferase activity of 40,000 * g subcellular fraction prepared from cardiac ventricular tissue of low potassium diet group were significantly decreased compared to those of normal group. The decrease of the sialic acid content and sialyltransferase activity in sarcolemma of low potassium diet group was inhibited when ginseng was concomitantly administered. Calcium uptake of sarcoplasmic reticulum prepared from low potassium diet group was significantly greaterthan that of normal group. Ginseng extract or total saponin showed the tendency to inhibit the increase of cacium uptake.

The purpose of this paper is to be studied the Devil's types and the special effect makeup's techniques expressed on horror movies. As the theoretical background, the researcher inquired the origin of Satan, Demon and Devil, and the shapes and meanings portrayed in the religion, philosophy art and literature. Also classified the Devil's types of the movies, and examined the factors, techniques and aesthetic characteristics of special effect makeup for each of them. The results are as follows. 1. The Devil's types are the Werewolf, the Zombie and the Vampire. The Werewolf is a kind of Devil that changes into a wolf when the full moon rises. It requires animatronics, rubber body suits, furs and fangs for special makeup effects. The Zombie is a dead body that the exorcist restored with a narcotic drug, and it nibbles on human's brain and flesh. So it needs decayed or pale skins, scars, bald heads, non-focus eyes and false teeth for making this character. The Vampire is a bloodsucking ghost. Therefore, it uses fangs, evil eyes, rubber body suits and dropping blood for special effect makeup. 2. They expresses Sadism, Masquerade and Cruelty as the aesthetic characteristics of the Devil's special effect makeup.

Screen printing is commonly used to form the electrode for crystalline silicon solar cells. However, it has caused high resistance and low aspect ratio, resulting in decrease of conversion efficiency. Accordingly, Ni/Cu/Ag plating method could be applied for crystalline silicon solar cells to reduce contact resistance. For Ni/Cu/Ag plating, laser ablation process is required to remove anti-reflection layers prior to the plating process, but laser ablation results in surface damage and then decrease of open-circuit voltage and cell efficiency. Another issue with plating process is ghost plating. Ghost plating occurred in the non-metallized region, resulting from pin-hole in anti-reflection layer. In this paper, we investigated the effect of Ni/Cu/Ag plating on the electrical properties, compared to screen printing method. In addition, phosphoric acid layer was spin-coated prior to laser ablation to minimize emitter damage by the laser. Phosphorous elements in phosphoric acid generated selective emitter throughout emitter layer during laser process. Then, KOH treatment was applied to remove surface damage by laser. At this step, amorphous silicon formed by laser ablation was recrystallized during firing process and remaining of amorphous silicon was removed by KOH treatment. As a result, electrical properties as Jsc, FF and efficiency were improved, but Voc was lower than screen printed solar cells because Voc was decreased due to surface damage by laser process. Accordingly, we expect that efficiency of solar cells could be improved by optimization of the process to remove surface damage.

Low-light image enhancement is a key technique to overcome the quality degradation of photos taken under scotopic vision illumination conditions. The degradation includes low brightness, low contrast, and outstanding noise, which would seriously affect the vision of the human eye recognition ability and subsequent image processing. In this paper, we propose an approach based on deep learning and Retinex theory to enhance the low-light image, which includes image decomposition, illumination prediction, image reconstruction, and image optimization. The first three parts can reconstruct the enhanced image that suffers from low-resolution. To reduce the noise of the enhanced image and improve the image quality, a super-resolution algorithm based on the Laplacian pyramid network is introduced to optimize the image. The Laplacian pyramid network can improve the resolution of the enhanced image through multiple feature extraction and deconvolution operations. Furthermore, a combination loss function is explored in the network training stage to improve the efficiency of the algorithm. Extensive experiments and comprehensive evaluations demonstrate the strength of the proposed method, the result is closer to the real-world scene in lightness, color, and details. Besides, experiments also demonstrate that the proposed method with the single low-light image can achieve the same effect as multi-exposure image fusion algorithm and no ghost is introduced.

디지털 방사선 시스템은 영상의학에서 큰 비중을 차지하고 있다. 잘못된 영상이 제공 된다면 이는 환자의 건강에 나쁜 영향을 줄 수 있기에, 올바른 디지털 방사선 영상이 제공되어야만 한다. 또한, artifact는 오진으로 이어질 수 있다. 디지털 방사선 시스템에서 발생하는 artifact를 종류별로 분석하여 그 결과 분석하였다. 본 연구에서 사용된 artifact는 서울의 종합병원 급 의료기관에서 2007년부터 2014년까지 수집된 자료들이다. 수집된 자료는 발생 원인별로 구별하여 그 원인을 분석하였다. artifact는 하드웨어적 artifact, 소프트웨어적 artifact, 사용자 오류, 시스템 artifact 및 기타로 구분하였다. 하드웨어적 artifact는 Ghost가 가장 빈번하게 관찰되었으며, 이는 신호의 잔류에 의한 것이다. 다음은 RF 잡음에 의한 오류, 장비 내 이물질에 의한 오류 순이다. 소프트웨어 artifact는 많은 원인이 있다. 부정확한 영상 교정에 의한 artifact가 가장 많았으며, EDR 인식오류, 접합면 처리 오류 등이 있으며, 소프트웨어 artifact는 매우 다양한 경향을 나타낸다. 사용자 오류는 디지털 의료 영상 시스템을 바르게 이해하지 못해 발생시킨 것들이 많았다. 아울러, 시스템 artifact는 DICOM 헤더 정보 오류, 압축 오류가 있다. 분명하게 나타나는 artifact는 재촬영의 원인이 되어 환자의 피폭을 증가시키고, 불분명하게 나타나는 artifact는 오진을 유발 시킬 수 있다. 따라서 방사선사에게서 이러한 artifact를 바로 구별 할 수 있는 능력이 요구 된다. 그러므로 artifact가 발생되는 원인과 그 특성을 분명하게 이해함으로 지속적인 교육과 안정적인 시스템 운영에 힘써야 할 것으로 사료된다.

To investigate the distribution of Vibrio parahaemopyticus in the southern 4 coastal areas, Vibrio parahaemolyticus was isolated from seawater, shellfish and sediment from May to October in 1991, and antimicrobial effect of grapefruit seed extract (GFSE) on the growth of isolated strains were examined. In the 120 sample from 4 coastal areas, 16 strains of Vibrio parahaemolyticus were isolated and identified. The distribution serotype of isolated strains was 10 types of monovalent k-antiserum. Especially k-5 and k-28 were highly distribyted with 3 and 4 strains. 31.3% of isolated strains showed positive on Kanagawa phenomenon test. All isolated Vibrio parahaemolyticus were sensitive to chloramphenicol and gentamycin, 5 and 6 strains were resistant to streptomycin and colistin, respectively. Isolated strains were compared with geographical, month and sample. The distribution of 16 isolated Vibrio parahamolyticus was high at Hadong with 50%(8 strains), on July with 43.8%(7 strains) and from seawater with 37.5%(6 strains) respectively. Minimal inhibitory level of GFSE to Vibrio parahaemolyticus was 50 ppm. With 100 ppm treatment of GFSE, the destroy of cell membrane function, outflow of cell ingredients and ghost morphology of cell were investigated.

Numerical predictions on flow phenomena in pipe network systems have been considered as playing an important role in both designing and operating various facilities of piping or duct systems, such as water supply, tunnel or mine ventilation, hydraulic systems of automobile or aircraft, and etc. Traditionally, coupling conditions between junction and connected branches are assumed to satisfy conservation law of mass and to share an equal pressure at junction node. However, the conventional methodology cannot reflect momentum interactions between pipes sufficiently. Thus, a new finite volume junction treatment is proposed both to reflect the interchanges of linear momentums between neighbor branches at junction and to include the effect of wall at junction in present work.

The performance of radars operated near an offshore wind farm region may be degraded due to the distorted signals by wind turbines. This degradation of radar systems includes ghost effects and doppler effects by a tower, nacelle, and turbine blades consisting of the wind turbine. In this paper, electromagnetic wave backscatterings from a offshore wind turbine are numerically simulated in terms of temporal radar cross section and radar cross section spectra, using a quasi-static approach based on physical optics and physical theory of diffraction. The simulations are carried out at 3.05 GHz for the seven yaw angles and four blade pitch angles. From the results, radar cross section values and doppler effect as turbine blades rotate are investigated.

The development of 2-D radiometer is a new technical challenge for space borne remote sensing area. The Y-type antenna array has been proposed as a most efficient configuration because a large alias free FOV and a small-synthesized beam-width can be achieved compared to L-, T-type under the fixed antenna spacing. New configuration of antenna array, which is called sub-Y type configuration, is proposed to obtain a higher angular resolution than the case of Y-type array in the paper. The sub-Y type array is consisted of basic arrays, which are the Y-type array of four antenna elements. To analyze characteristics of the proposed configuration, the synthesized beam pattern is simulated through simulation. The secondary effect of the sub-Y-type is that the reconstructed image is suffered from the alias effect is appeared around the real target. The ghost targets in the reconstructed image can be reduced by the alias suppression algorithm introduced in this paper. In conclusion, the performance evaluation by use of array factor simulation shows more than 37.5% improvement in average for angular resolution and almost similar performance for temperature resolution.
