  • In general, a SYPRO Ruby dye is well known as a sensitive fluorescence-based method for detecting proteins by one-or two-dimensional SDS-PAGE (1-DE or 2-DE). Based on the SYPRO Ruby dye system, the combined two-dimensional fibrin zymography (2-D FZ) with SYPRO Ruby staining was newly developed to identify the Bacillus sp. proteases. Namely, complex protein mixtures from Bacillus sp. DJ-4, which were screened from Doen-Jang (Korean traditional fermented food), showed activity on the zymogram gel. The gel spots on the SYPRO Ruby gel, which corresponded to the active spots showing on the 2-D FZ gel, were analyzed by a matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometric analysis. Five intracellular fibrinolytic enzymes of Bacillus sp. DJ-4 were detected through 2-D FZ. The gel spots on the SYPRO Ruby dye stained 2-D gel corresponding to 2-D FZ were then analyzed by MALID TOF MS. Three of the five gel spots proved to be quite similar to the ATP-dependent protease, extracellular neutral metalloprotease, and protease of Bacillus subtilis. Also, the extracellular proteases of Bacillus sp. DJ-4 employing this combined system were identified on three gels (e.g., casein, fibrin, and gelatin) and the proteolytic maps were established. This combined system of 2-D zymography and SYPRO Ruby dye should be useful for searching the specific protease from complex protein mixtures of many other sources (e.g., yeast and cancer cell lines).

  • Power Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor's (MOSFETs) are well known for superior switching speed, and they require very little gate drive power because of the insulated gate. In these respects, power MOSFETs approach the characteristics of an "ideal switch". The main drawback is on-resistance RDS(on) and its strong positive temperature coefficient. While this process has been driven by market place competition with operating parameters determined by products, manufacturing technology innovations that have not necessarily followed such a consistent path have enabled it. This treatise briefly examines metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) device characteristics and elucidates important future issues which semiconductor technologists face as they attempt to continue the rate of progress to the identified terminus of the technology shrink path in about 2020. We could find at the electrical property as variation p base dose. Ultimately, its ON state voltage drop was enhanced also shrink chip size. To obtain an optimized parameter and design, we have simulated over 500 V Field ring using 8 Field rings. Field ring width was $3{\mu}m$ and P base dose was $1e15cm^2$. Also the numerical multiple $2.52cm^2$ was obtained which indicates the doping limit of the original device. We have simulated diffusion condition was split from $1,150^{\circ}C$ to $1,200^{\circ}C$. And then $1,150^{\circ}C$ diffusion time was best condition for break down voltage.

  • 잉크젯 프린팅이 전자 및 디스플레이 산업의 생산라인에 적용됨에 따라, 생산효율을 극대화하기 위해 잉크액적 토출불량 검사 소요시간의 단축이 요구되고 있다. 기존의 잉크액적 토출불량 검사방법은 주로 고배율 렌즈와 CCD 카메라를 직선운동을 하는 스테이지 상에 설치하여 잉크젯 프린트 헤드의 노즐배열과 평행한 방향으로 순차적으로 이동시키면서 토출되는 잉크액적을 비젼검사하는 것이었다. 그러나, 기존 방식은 60 초 혹은 그 이상의 검사시간을 요구하며, 특히 잉크액적 토출불량을 장시간 지속적으로 검사하는 것은 불필요한 기계적 진동을 야기시키는 문제점이 있었다. 본 연구에서는 회전미러 방식의 고속 잉크젯 모니터링 모듈을 설계하여 검사시간을 18 초 내외로 단축하였으며, 검사 소요시간 단축을 위한 모듈의 설계 고려사항들에 대해 논의하도록 한다.

  • 복합재의 물성치 해석에 일반적으로 사용되는 일반화된 자기일치모델(Generalized Self-Consistent Model)과 수정된 에쉘비모델(Modified Eshelby Model)을 이용하여 나노유체의 열전도계수를 예측할 수 있음을 보였다. 이 유체의 열전달효과를 대폭 향상시키는 대표적인 메카니즘 중 하나인 나노입자와 기본유체 사이에 존재하는 나노층의 영향을 고려하여 나노유체의 열전도계수를 예측하였다. 본 연구는 나노층의 열전도계수가 일정한 값을 가질 때 기존 대표적인 모델과 동일한 결과를 보였으며, 선형적으로 변할 때 역시 문헌에 있는 모델과 동등한 수준의 예측 값을 보였다. 알루미나와 산화구리를 나노입자로 물과 에틸렌글리콜을 기본유체로 한 나노유체의 열전도계수에 대한 실험결과와 본 모델의 예측결과를 비교함으로써 본 모델의 타당성을 입증하였다.

  • Recently a new technology called the flexible-fiber deep-bed filter (FDF) claimed to replace the conventional sand filter including coagulation and sedimentation filter (CSF) processes in the water treatment plant. Therefore the life cycle assessment (LCA) approach was applied for evaluating the life cycle impacts of FDF compared with those of CSF. The used LCA softwares were the Simapro 6 and PASS and their life cycle impact assessment (LCIA) methodologies were the Eco-indicator 99 and the Korean Eco-indicator, respectively. The goal of this LCA was to identify environmental loads of CSF and FDF from raw material to disposal stages. The scopes of the systems have been determined based on the experiences of existing CSF and FDF. The function was to remove suspended solids by filtration and the functional unit was $1\;m^3$/day. Both systems showed that most environmental impacts were occurred during the operation stage. To reduce the environmental impacts the coagulants and electricity consumptions need to be cut down. If the CSF was replaced with the FDF, the environmental impacts would be reduced in most of the impact categories. The LCA results of Korean Eco-indicator and Eco- indicator99 were quite different from each other due to the indwelling differences such as category indicators, impact categories, characterization factors, normalization values and weighting factors. This study showed that the life cycle assessment could be a valuable tool for evaluating the environmental impact of the new technology which was introduced in water treatment process.

  • 신뢰도 높은 나노 직선 이동장치를 제작하였다. 장치는 기본 몸체에 고정된 6개의 피에조 다리들과 이들이 붙잡고 있는 사파이어 육각기둥으로 이루어 졌다. 특정한 전압파형을 피에조 다리에 인가하여 피에조 다리를 순차적으로 움직임으로 육각기둥을 앞으로 혹은 뒤로 움직인다. 직선 이동장치를 지표면에 수직 방향으로 시험구동 하였다. 육각기둥이 수 mm를 움직이는 동안 속도가 일정함을 확인하였다. 위쪽으로 올라가는 가장 느린 속도는 $1.7{\times}10^{-6}m/s$, 즉 ${\sim}28.3nm$/걸음이었고 아래쪽으로 내려가는 가장 느린 속도는 중력의 도움을 받아 ${\sim}3.7{\times}10^{-6}m/s$, 즉 ${\sim}61.7nm$/걸음 이었다. 피에조에 인가된 전압을 증가시키면 육각기둥의 이동속도가 선형으로 증가하였다. 이 직선 이동장치를 주사형 터널링 현미경의 접근 장치로 사용할 것이다.

  • The rapid development in modern industrialization pollutant the water and atmospheric air across the globe that have a major impact on the human and livings health. In worldwide, every country government increasing the importance to improve the outdoor air pollution monitoring and control to provide quality of life and prevent the citizens and livings life from hazard disease. We proposed the environmental dust level detection method for outdoor facilities using sensor fusion technology to measure precise micro-dust level and monitor in realtime. In this proposed approach use the camera sensor and commercial dust level sensor data to predict the micro-dust level with data fusion method. The camera sensor based dust level detection uses the optical flow based machine learning method to detect the dust level and then fused with commercial dust level sensor data to predict the precise micro-dust level of the outdoor facilities and send the dust level informations to the outdoor air pollution monitoring system. The proposed method implemented on raspberry pi based open-source hardware with Internet-of-Things (IoT) framework and evaluated the performance of the system in realtime. The experimental results confirm that the proposed micro-dust level detection is precise and reliable in sensing the air dust and pollution, which helps to indicate the change in the air pollution more precisely than the commercial sensor based method in some extent.

  • Since standardized fracture test specimens cannot be easily extracted from in-service components, several alternative fracture toughness test methods have been proposed to characterize the deformation and fracture resistance of materials. One of the more promising alternatives is the local approach employing the SP(Small Punch) testing technique. However, this process has several limitations such as a lack of anisotropic yield potential and tediousness in the damage parameter calibration process. The present paper investigates estimation of ductile fracture resistance(J-R) curve by FE(Finite Element) analyses using an anisotropic damage model and enhanced calibration procedure. In this context, specific tensile tests to quantify plastic strain ratios were carried out and SP test data were obtained from the previous research. Also, damage parameters constituting the Gurson-Tvergaard-Needleman model in conjunction with Hill's 48 yield criterion were calibrated for a typical nuclear reactor material through a genetic algorithm. Finally, the J-R curve of a standard compact tension specimen was predicted by further detailed FE analyses employing the calibrated damage parameters. It showed a lower fracture resistance of the specimen material than that based on the isotropic yield criterion. Therefore, a more realistic J-R curve of a reactor material can be obtained effectively from the proposed methodology by taking into account a reduced load-carrying capacity due to anisotropy.

  • Heat shock proteins (Hsp) 70 are a ubiquitous family of molecular chaperones involved in many cellular processes. A yeast strain, ssa1/2, with two functionally redundant cytosolic Hsp70s (SSA1 and SSA2) deleted shows thermotolerance comparable to mildly heatshocked wild type yeast, as well as increased protein synthesis and ubiquitin-proteasome protein degradation. Since mRNA abundance does not always correlate well with protein expression levels it is essential to study proteins directly. We used a gel-based approach to identify stress-responsive proteins in the ssa1/2 mutant and identified 43 differentially expressed spots. These were trypsin-digested and analyzed by nano electrospray ionization liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (nESI-LC-MS/MS). A total of 22 non-redundant proteins were identified, 11 of which were confirmed by N-terminal sequencing. Nine proteins, most of which were up-regulated (2-fold or more) in the ssa1/2 mutant, proved to be stress-inducible proteins such as molecular chaperones and anti-oxidant proteins, or proteins related to carbohydrate metabolism. Interestingly, a translational factor Hyp2p up-regulated in the mutant was also found to be highly phosphorylated. These results indicate that the cytosolic Hsp70s, Ssa1p and Ssa2p, regulate an abundance of proteins mainly involved in stress responses and protein synthesis.
