  • The Korean Astronomical Society (KAS) Education & Public Outreach Committee has provided education services for children and school teachers in Cambodia over the past three years from 2016 to 2018. In the first year, 2016, one KAS member visited Pusat to teach astronomy to about 50 children, and in the following two years of 2017 and 2018, three and six KAS members, respectively, executed education workshops for ~ 20 (per each year) local school teachers in Sisophon. It turned out that it is desirable to include both teaching of astronomical knowledge and making experiments and observations in the education in order for the program to be more effective. Language barrier was the main obstacle in conveying concepts and knowledge, and having a good interpreter was very important. It happens that some languages, such as the Khmer of Cambodia, do not have astronomical terminologies, so that lecturers and even the education participants together are needed to communicate and create appropriate words. Handout hard-copies of the education materials (presentation files, lecture/experiment summaries, terminologies, etc.) are extremely helpful for the participants. Actual performing of assembling and using astronomical telescopes for night sky observations has been lifetime experience for some of the participants, which might promote zeal for knowledge and education. It is hoped that these education services for developing countries like Cambodia can be regularly continued in the future, and further extended to other countries such as Laos and Myanmar.

  • 고준위방사성폐기물 심층처분장 내 천연방벽은 방사성핵종의 누출을 방지 및 지연할 수 있는 수리학적 특성을 갖춰야 한다. 결정질 암반의 경우 불연속면에 의해 수리학적 성능이 결정되기 때문에, 불연속면의 수리-역학적 복합거동에 대한 자세한 모사가 필요하다. 불연속체 기반 해석기법은 불연속면의 생성, 전파, 변형, 미끄러짐과 같은 복잡한 거동을 구현할 수 있어 결정질 암반 모사에 적합하다. 본 연구에서는 불연속면에서의 수리-역학 복합거동에 초점을 맞추어, UDEC, 3DEC, PFC, DDA, FRACOD, TOUGH-UDEC과 같은 상용화된 불연속체 기반 수리-역학 복합거동 해석기법을 조사하였다. 블록 기반 불연속체 해석기법의 경우 주로 불연속면 상에서 진행되는 유체 유동을 바탕으로 수리-역학 복합거동을 해석하였고, 그중 일부는 다른 수리학적 해석기법과의 결합을 통하여 모델 전체에 대한 수리-역학적 복합거동을 제공하였다. 입자 기반 불연속체 해석기법의 경우에는 입자 사이로 흐르는 유체를 반영하여 불연속체 모델 전체에 해당하는 수리-역학적 복합거동 모사가 가능하다. 현재까지 상용화된 불연속체 기반 복합거동 해석기법은 2차원 해석만 제공하거나, 수리학적 해석 성능이 떨어지고, 불연속면에서의 유체 유동만 고려되거나, 자세한 수리학적 해석을 지원하지 않는 등의 한계점이 있어 고준위방사성폐기물 심층처분시스템의 정확한 수리-역학 모델링에는 적합하지 않을 수 있다. 본 기술보고에서 검토한 다양한 해석기법들의 장단점을 참고하여 향후 처분시스템을 정확하고 자세하게 모사할 수 있는 불연속체 기반 수리-역학 복합거동 해석기법의 개발이 필요하다.

  • 본 연구는 영농규모화에 대한 전개과정과 충남지역 쌀 생산기반을 검토하고 쌀 산업의 미래지향적 방향의 한 축을 이어갈 쌀 전업농의 영농규모화를 통한 그 대안을 모색하는데 있다. 이 목적을 완성하기 위해 조사된 내용을 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 충남지역이 쌀 생산은 전국에서 가장 높으며 재배면적에서도 제2위를 차지하고 있다. 이는 그만큼 쌀에 대한 국제적 정세변화는 충남의 쌀 생산농가에게 지대한 영향을 미칠 수 있는 개연성을 높여준다. 쌀 생산의 핵심이 되는 전업농가 수는 도내 전체농가의 7.7%를 차지하고 있고, 이들의 평균 경작면적은 2.9ha 이다. 이 면적은 규모화사업을 위해 지원된 자금이 크게 주효한 결과라고 해석된다. 2. 1980년대 후반부터 2002년까지 추진된 충남지역 영농규모화사업은 충남지역에 쌀 전업농가의 경영규모를 19,484ha까지 증가시켰다. 또한 1995년부터 2002년까지 매매사업이 이루어진 농가 수는 6,431농가에 1,6517ha가 매매되었으며, 장기임대차사업은 같은 기간동안 7,059농가에 면적은 6,970ha에 이르렀다. 다만 농지교환분합사업은 210ha에 1,864농가가 참여하였는데 이처럼 농지교환.분합사업이 활발하지 못한 것은 은퇴자들이 영농에 넓은 면적을 요망하지 않아 구태여 규모화사업에 응하지 않더라도 생활에 지장이 없기 때문이다. 또한 교환과 분합작업에 따른 복잡성 등, 일반 사회적 여건도 농지의 교환분합사업에 부정적인 방향으로 작용했던 것으로 추정된다. 3. 영농규모화사업을 촉진하기 위해서 제안된 방안들은 다음과 같다. (1) 재촌탈농자 및 고령 은퇴자를 위한 전직 프로그램 및 사회보장프로그램을 수립하고 농지매매 촉진을 위한 각종 인센티브제를 도입하여야 할 것이다. (2) 효율적인 쌀 생산시스템을 확립하기 위하여 단위면적당 생산량을 증대시키고 생산비를 낮추는 제 방안이 강구되어야 한다. 이를 위해서는 쌀 생산기술과 경영적 능력을 갖춘 생산조직이 육성되어야 하며 시설의 적정배치 및 정보화가 완비되어야 한다. 그리고 영농시스템 구축에 바탕을 둔 지역종합의 다양한 구조개선도 병행하지 않으면 안 될 것이다. (3) 경영규모를 확대, 개선하기 위해서는 개별경영규모를 확대하거나 집단규모를 활용한 방안이 강구될 수 있을 것이다. 이상을 종합하면 충남의 영농규모화사업은 성공적으로 수행되어 왔다고 할 수 있으나, 궁극적으로 이 사업이 소기의 목적을 달성하기 위해서는 부수되는 제반 문제점을 적절히 해결해 가지 않으면 안 된다. 그리고 쌀 전업농에 대한 적절한 지원 및 탈농자 및 은퇴자에 대한 종합대책수립은 충남의 영농규모화사업을 완수하는데 반드시 선결되어야할 사항이다.

  • Though the tradition of Korean mathematics since the ancient time up to the 'Enlightenment Period' in the late 19th century had been under the influence of the Chinese mathematics, it strove to develop its own independent of Chinese. However, the fact that it couldn't succeed to form the independent Korean mathematics in spite of many chances under the reign of Kings Sejong, Youngjo, and Joungjo was mainly due to the use of Chinese characters by Koreans. Han-gul (Korean characters) invented by King Sejong had not been used widely as it was called and despised Un-mun and Koreans still used Chinese characters as the only 'true letters' (Jin-suh). The correlation between characters and culture was such that, if Koreans used Han-gul as their official letters, we may have different picture of Korean mathematics. It is quite interesting to note that the mathematics in the 'Enlightenment Period' changed rather smoothly into the Western mathematics at the time when Han-gul was used officially with Chinese characters. In Koryo, the mathematics existed only as a part of the Confucian refinement, not as the object of sincere study. The mathematics in Koryo inherited that of the Unified Shilla without any remarkable development of its own, and the mathematicians were the Inner Officials isolated from the outside world who maintained their positions as specialists amid the turbulence of political changes. They formed a kind of Guild, their posts becoming patrimony. The mathematics in Koryo significant in that they paved the way for that of Chosun through a few books of mathematics such as 'Sanhak-Kyemong', 'Yanghwi-Sanpup' and 'Sangmyung-Sanpup'. King Sejong was quite phenomenal in his policy of promotion of mathematics. King himself was deeply interested in the study, createing an atmosphere in which all the high ranking officials and scholars highly valued mathematics. The sudden development of mathematic culture was mainly due to the personality and capacity of king who took anyone with the mathematic talent into government service regardless of his birth and against the strong opposition of the conservative officials. However, King's view of mathematics never resulted in the true development of mathematics perse and he used it only as an official technique in the tradition way. Korean mathematics in King Sejong's reign was based upon both the natural philosophy in China and the unique geo-political reality of Korean peninsula. The reason why the mathematic culture failed to develop continually against those social background was that the mathematicians were not allowed to play the vital role in that culture, they being only the instrument for the personality or politics of the king. While the learned scholar class sometimes played the important role for the development of the mathematic culture, they often as not became an adamant barrier to it. As the society in Chosun needed the function of mathematics acutely, the mathematicians formed the settled class called Jung-in (Middle-Man). Jung-in was a unique class in Chosun and we can't find its equivalent in China or Japan. These Jung-in mathematician officials lacked tendency to publish their study, since their society was strictly exclusive and their knowledge was very limited. Though they were relatively low class, these mathematicians played very important role in Chosun society. In 'Sil-Hak (the Practical Learning) period' which began in the late 16th century, especially in the reigns of Kings Youngjo and Jungjo, which was called the Renaissance of Chosun, the ambitious policy for the development of science and technology called for. the rapid increase of he number of such technocrats as mathematics, astronomy and medicine. Amid these social changes, the Jung-in mathematicians inevitably became quite ambitious and proud. They tried to explore deeply into mathematics perse beyond the narrow limit of knowledge required for their office. Thus, in this period the mathematics developed rapidly, undergoing very important changes. The characteristic features of the mathematics in this period were: Jung-in mathematicians' active study an publication, the mathematic studies by the renowned scholars of Sil-Hak, joint works by these two classes, their approach to the Western mathematics and their effort to develop Korean mathematics. Toward the 'Enlightenment Period' in the late 19th century, the Western mathematics experienced great difficulty to take its roots in the Peninsula which had been under the strong influence of Confucian ideology and traditional Korean mathematic system. However, with King Kojong's ordinance in 1895, the traditional Korean mathematics influenced by Chinese disappeared from the history of Korean mathematics, as the school system was hanged into the Western style and the Western mathematics was adopted as the only mathematics to be taught at the Schools of various levels. Thus the 'Enlightenment Period' is the period in which Korean mathematics shifted from Chinese into European.

  • Clonal propagation of high-value forest trees through somatic embryogenesis (SE) has the potential to rapidly capture the benefits of breeding or genetic engineering programs and to improve raw material uniformity and quality. A major barrier to the commercialization of this technology is the low quality of the resulting embryos. Several factors limit commercialization of SE for Corsican pine, including low initiation rates, low culture survival, culture decline causing low or no embryo production, and inability of somatic embryos to fully mature, resulting in low germination and reduced vigour of somatic seedlings. The objective was to develop a Corsican pine maturation medium that would produce cotyledonary embryos capable of germination. Treatments were arranged in a completely randomized design. Data were analyzed by analysis of variance, and significant differences between treatments determined by multiple range test at P=0.05. Corsican pine (Pinus nigra var. maritima) cultures were initiated on modified !P6 medium. Modifications of the same media were used for culture multiplication and maintenance. Embryogenic cultures were maintained on the same medium semi solidified with 2.5 g/l Gelrite. A maturation medium, capable of promoting the development of Corsican pine somatic embryos that can germinate, is a combination of iP6 modified salts, 2% maltose, 13% polyethylene glycol (PEG), 5 mg!l abscisic acid (ABA), and 2.5 g/l Gelrite. After initiation and once enough tissue developed they were grown in liquid medium. Embryogenic cell suspensions were established by adding 0.951.05 g of 10- to 14-day-old semisolid-grown embryogenic tissue to 9 ml of liquid maintenance media in a 250ml Erlenmeyer flask. Cultures were then incubated in the dark at 2022$^{\circ}$C and rotated at 120 rpm. After 2.53 months on maturation medium, somatic embryos were selected that exhibited normal embryo shape. Ten embryos were placed horizontally on 20 ml of either germination medium ($\frac{2}{1}$strength Murashige and Skoog (1962) salts with 2.5 g/l activated charcoal) or same medium with copper sulphate adjusted to 0.25 mg/1 to compensate for copper adsorption by activated carbon. 2% and 4% maltose was substituted by 7.5% and 13% PEG respectively to improve the yield of the embryos. Substitution of' maltose with PEG was clearly beneficial to embryo development. When 2% of the maltose was replaced with 7.5% PEG, many embryos developed to large bullet-shaped embryos. At latter stages of development most embryos callused and stopped development. A few short, barrel-shaped cotyledonary embryos formed that were covered by callus on the sides and base. When 4% of the maltose was removed and substituted with 13% PEG, the embryos developed further, emerging from the callus and increasing yield slightly. Microscopic examination of the cultures showed differing morphologies, varying from mostly single cells or clumps to well-formed somatic embryos that resembled early zygotic embryos only liquid cultures with organized early-stag. A procedure for converting and acclimating germinants to growth in soil and greenhouse conditions is also tested. Seedling conversion and growth were highly related to the quality of the germinant at the time of planting. Germinants with larger shoots, longer, straighter hypocotyls and longer roots performed best. When mature zygotic embryos germinate the root emerges, before or coincident with the shoot. In contrast, somatic embryos germinate in reverse sequence, with the cotyledons greening first, then shoot emergence and then, much later, if at all, the appearance of the root. Somatic seedlings, produced from the maturation medium, showed 100% survival when planted in a field setting. Somatic seedlings showed normal yearly growth relative to standard seedlings from natural seed.

  • A review on the papers published in the Korean Journal of Air-Conditioning and Refrigerating Engineering in 2002 and 2003 has been carried out. Focus has been put on current status of research in the aspect of heating, cooling, air-conditioning, ventilation, sanitation and building environment/design. The conclusions are as follows. (1) Most of fundamental studies on fluid flow were related with heat transportation in diverse facilities. Drop formation and rivulet flow on solid surfaces were interesting topics related with condensation augmentation. Research on micro environment considering flow, heat transfer, humidity was also interesting to promote comfortable living environment. It can be extended considering biological aspects. Development of fans and blowers of high performance and low noise were continuing research topics. Well developed CFD technologies were widely applied for analysis and design of various facilities and their systems. (2) Heat transfer characteristics of enhanced finned tube heat exchangers and heat sinks were extensively investigated. Experimental studies on the boiling heat transfer, vortex generators, fluidized bed heat exchangers, and frosting and defrosting characteristics were also conducted. In addition, the numerical simulations on various heat exchangers were performed and reported to show heat transfer characteristics and performance of the heat exchanger. (3) A review of the recent studies shows that the performance analysis of heat pump have been made by various simulations and experiments. Progresses have been made specifically on the multi-type heat pump systems and other heat pump systems in which exhaust energy is utilized. The performance characteristics of heat pipe have been studied numerically and experimentally, which proves the validity of the developed simulation programs. The effect of various factors on the heat pipe performance has also been examined. Studies of the ice storage system have been focused on the operational characteristics of the system and on the basics of thermal storage materials. Researches into the phase change have been carried out steadily. Several papers deal with the cycle analysis of a few thermodynamic systems which are very useful in the field of air-conditioning and refrigeration. (4) Recent studies on refrigeration and air-conditioning systems have focused on the system performance and efficiency enhancement when new alternative refrigerants are applied. Heat transfer characteristics during evaporation and condensation are investigated for several tube shapes and new alternative refrigerants including natural refrigerants. Efficiency of various compressors and performance of new expansion devices are also dealt with for better design of refrigeration/air conditioning system. In addition to the studies related with thermophysical properties of refrigerant mixtures, studies on new refrigerants are also carried out. It should be noted that the researches on two-phase flow are constantly carried out. (5) A review of the recent studies on absorption refrigeration system indicates that heat and mass transfer enhancement is the key factor in improving the system performance. Various experiments have been carried out and diverse simulation models have been presented. Study on the small scale absorption refrigeration system draws a new attention. Cooling tower was also the research object in the respect of enhancement its efficiency, and performance analysis and optimization was carried out. (6) Based on a review of recent studies on indoor thermal environment and building service systems, it is noticed that research issues have mainly focused on several innovative systems such as personal environmental modules, air-barrier type perimeterless system with UFAC, radiant floor cooling system, etc. New approaches are highlighted for improving indoor environmental conditions and minimizing energy consumption, various activities of building energy management and cost-benefit analysis for economic evaluation.

  • 피부는 외부 유해물질로부터 내부기관을 보호하는 장벽기능을 하는 대표적인 기관으로 자외선(ultraviolet radiation, UV), 중금속, 각종 산화 물질들과 같은 외부의 위협에 항상 노출되어 있어 손상을 받기 쉽다. 특히 자외선 B (UVB)는 진피의 상부까지 도달하여 화상이나 홍반과 같은 염증반응을 일으키며 멜라닌 생성을 촉진시켜 색소 침착을 유발한다. 지나친 자외선 B의 피부세포로의 유입은 각질세포 및 진피 섬유아세포의 DNA손상을 야기하고, 세포외기질의 합성을 방해하여 피부탄력감소, 주름생성, 진피 결합조직의 손상과 함께 피부장벽을 붕괴시켜 노화를 일으키며, 장기간 노출 시 심각한 피부 병변으로 이어져 피부세포 사멸 및 종양의 발생으로까지 이어진다. Haloarcula vallismortis는 사해로부터 분리 동정한 미생물로 호염성 고생물의 생장적 특징은 아직 자세히 연구된 바는 없다. 대게 10% 이상의 염도에서 자라는데 실제 생장염도는 평균 20 ~ 25% 염도에서 자란다. 염도가 높은 호수나 염전에서 주로 발견되기 때문에 강한 햇빛에 대한 방어기작이 존재한다. 그중 하나로 다른 ATP를 생성하기 위한 bacteriorhodopsin외에 halorhodopsin이라는 색소를 이용, 광자(photon)를 흡수하고 염화이온 채널을 개방시켜 생기는 전위차를 이용해 추가로 에너지를 생산한다. 또 carotenoid 색소로 인해 농도가 높을시 분홍색 또는 빨간색을 띄는 특징이 있는데 이것이 강한 자외선에 대한 방어기작을 할 것이라고 여겨진다. 본 연구는 호염성 고세균이 자외선을 에너지 소스로 이용하는 특성을 이용하여 자외선으로부터 피부를 방어하는 방법을 개발하고자 이들의 피부각질세포에서 자외선에 의한 항염 효과 및 DNA 손상 방어 효과를 확인하였다. 그리고 이들을 천연 자외선 차단제의 소재로서 사용할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

  • 상피세포성장인자(epidermal growth factor, EGF)는 인간의 표피 및 진피에서 세포막 수용체와 상호작용을 통하여 세포의 생장 및 증식을 유도하는 기능을 갖고 있다. 이 같은 EGF의 기능은 의료 및 화장품 분야에서 상처치유 의약품 및 노화방지 화장품의 주요원료로 사용되고 있다. 화장품 원료로서 EGF는 피부장벽으로 알려져 있는 피부 각질층의 투과가 잘 안되기 때문에 가지고 있는 본연의 효능을 구현하는 데 문제가 있다. 본 연구에서는 EGF의 경피투과 효율을 개선하기 위하여 피부 투과능이 확인된 거대분자 전송 도메인(macromolecule transduction domain, MTD) 151이 융합된 형태로 재조합 인간 상피세포성장인자 ($MTD_{151}-EGF$)를 개발하였다. $MTD_{151}-EGF$의 유전자가 coding된 vector로 형질전환된 대장균에서 $MTD_{151}-EGF$ 발현시킨 후 정제를 진행하였다. 정제된 MTD-EGF를 대상으로 세포증식시험, 세포독성시험, 생체외 피부흡수시험 그리고 인공피부를 이용한 경피투과능을 평가하였다. 99% 이상 고순도로 정제된 $MTD_{151}-EGF$의 세포증식 활성은 EGF 대비 동등 이상의 수준이었으며, 세포독성은 관찰되지 않았다. 또한, 인공피부 투과모델에서 FITC로 표지된 EGF와 $MTD_{151}-EGF$의 진피층까지의 투과를 공초점 현미경으로 관찰한 결과, $MTD_{151}-EGF$는 EGF 대비 우수한 투과능을 보였으며, 경피흡수 시스템을 이용한 투과물질의 정량분석 결과, EGF 대비 약 16 배 이상 투과량이 많은 것으로 확인되었다. 이러한 결과들은 다양한 활성물질들의 화장품용 원료로서의 경피투과에 MTD가 기존의 물리적인 경피투과 방법을 효율적으로 개선한 대안이 될 것으로 판단된다.

  • 올해로 한국의 기록물관리는 10년을 맞이한다. 그 동안 법, 제도 그리고 교육의 분야에서 괄목할 만한 발전이 있었다. 하지만 빠른 성장의 과정에서 부족한 점도 없지 않았던 것이 사실인데, 그 중에서 가장 근본적인 것은 기록물의 개념에 대한 연구가 충분하지 않았다는 사실이다. 사실 개념에 대한 불충분한 연구는 한국의 경우 기록물에 대한 역사학적 관점, 정보학적 관점 그리고 기록물관리학적인 관점의 무질서한 공존을 초래하였으며 기록물관리가 학문의 한 영역으로 성립하는데 있어 가장 큰 걸림돌이 되고 있다. 역사적으로 'archivium'은 기록물관리를 위한 장소를 가리켰으나 오늘날에는 '문서들 전체'와 문서들 내부에 형성된 '유기적 관계들의 전체'를 나타내는 의미로 발전하였다. 특히 후자의 의미와 관련하여 기록물은 기록된 모든 것을 연구대상으로 간주하는 역사학의 사료와 구분되며 구체적인 의도(주제)에 따라 인위적으로 생산된 도서들이 제공하는 정보와는 달리 자연스러운 업무의 과정에서 생산된다. 뿐만 아니라 기록물은 현용, 준현용의 단계가 마감되고 영구보존 및 활용을 위해 선별되어 영구기록물관리기관에 이관된, 즉 생산목적에 근거하는 역사, 문화적 가치가 지배적인 문서들을 의미한다. 하지만 오늘날 기록물관리는 역사기록물(archives)이외에도 현용, 준현용 단계의 문서들도 관리대상에 포함한다. 이러한 변화는 제 2차 세계대전을 계기로 업무행정의 효율성과 투명성을 위한 북미 Records management의 전통에 근거한다. 우리나라의 기록물관리는 지난 원년부터 북미 기록물관리 전통의 지배적인 영향을 받았다. 그러기에 기록물관리는 정보학의 과도한 영향 하에서 정리보다는 분류의 대상으로, 이관보다는 수집의 대상으로 그리고 문서들 전체로서의 기록물보다는 기록된 모든 것(기록) 또는 문서들이 제공하는 정보들의 관리로 인식되었다. 하지만 이러한 인식으로는 기록물관리가 모든 매체에 기록된 모든 유형의 정보를 관리하는 기술(技術)일 뿐, 학문으로서의 위엄(dignity)과 관리의 효율성을 전혀 보장하지 못한다.
