  • Purpose : The purpose of this study is to verify the effectiveness of combined marine healing programs by analyzing the physical composition of metabolic patients, blood lipids and the effects of the inflammatory factors, the C -reactive protein(CRP). Methods : the combined marine treatment program was conducted for 6 hours a day, 5 days a week on the 10 adult patients with metabolic diseases and the results of their body composition, blood lipids and CRP were analyzed before and after the subjects completed the program. For the statistical analysis, the mean and standard deviation (M±SD) of each variable were calculated using SPSS version 20 and a paired t-test was conducted in order to test for the differences before and after the combined marine treatment program. All significant levels were set to 𝛼=.05. As a result of the experiment Results : First, regarding the changes in body composition and blood pressure after the 5-day combined marine treatment program was completed, there were statistically significant differences found in weight (p<.01) and systolic blood pressure (p<.05). Second, regarding the changes in blood lipids and CRP after the program was conducted, there were statistically significant differences found in total cholesterol (p<.05) while there was no statistically significant difference found in the variables of neutral fat, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and CRP. Conclusion : the study results were integrated, the 5-day combined marine treatment program had a positive effect on weight, blood pressure and total cholesterol in the patients with metabolic diseases. Therefore, the short-term marine treatment program was thought to be effective for them. However, considering no significant differences were found in neutral fat, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and CRP, further development and research on combined marine treatment programs should be conducted in the long term to create an effective program for patients with metabolic diseases.

  • This paper presents a simple n-order four variable refined theory for the bending and vibration analyses of functionally graded plates. By dividing the transverse displacement into bending and shear parts, the number of unknowns and governing equations of the present theory is reduced, and hence, makes it simple to use. The present theory is variationally consistent, uses the n-order polynomial term to represent the displacement field, does not require shear correction factor, and gives rise to transverse shear stress variation such that the transverse shear stresses vary parabolically across the thickness satisfying shear stress free surface conditions. The governing equations are derived by employing the Hamilton's principle and the physical neutral surface concept. The accuracy of the present solutions is verified by comparing the obtained results with available published ones.

  • Fly ash can significantly improve concrete workability and performance, and recycling fly ash in concrete can contribute to a cleaner environment. Since fly ash influences pozzolanic reactions in concrete, mechanical behaviors of concrete containing fly ash differ from traditional concrete. Creep behaviors of fly ash concrete filled steel tube arch were experimentally investigated for 10% and 30% fly ash replacement. The axes of two arches are designed as circular arc with 2.1 m computed span, 0.24 m arch rise, and their cross-sections are all in circular section. Time dependent deflection and strain of loading and mid-span steel tube were measured, and long term deflection of the model arch with 10% fly ash replacement was significantly larger than with 30% replacement. Considering the steel tube strain, compressive zone height, cross section curvature, and internal force borne by the steel tube, the compressive zone height and structural internal forces increased gradually over time due to concrete creep. Increased fly ash content resulted in more significant neutral axis shift. Mechanisms for internal force effects on neutral axis height were analyzed and verified experimentally.

  • The wave number 4 (wave-4) and wave number 3 (wave-3) longitudinal structures in the thermospheric neutral mass density are understood as tidal structures driven by diurnal eastward-propagating zonal wave number 3 (DE3) and wave number 2 (DE2) tides, respectively. However, those structures have been identified using data from limited time periods, and the consistency and recurrence of those structures have not yet been examined using long-term observation data. We examine the persistence of those structures by analyzing the neutral mass density data for the years 2001-2008 taken by the CHAllenging Minisatellite Payload (CHAMP) satellite. During years of low solar activity, the amplitude of the wave-4 structure is pronounced during August and September, and the wave-4 phase shows a consistent eastward phase progression of $90^{\circ}$ within 24 h local time in different months and years. During years of high solar activity, the wave-4 amplitude is small and does not show a distinctive annual pattern, but the tendency of the eastward phase shift at a rate of $90^{\circ}$/24 h exists. Thus the DE3 signature in the wave-4 structure is considered as a persistent feature. The wave-3 structure is a weak feature in most months and years. The amplitude and phase of the wave-3 structure do not show a notable solar cycle dependence. Among the contributing tidal modes to the wave-3 structure, the DE2 amplitude is most pronounced. This result may suggest that the DE2 signature, although it is a weak signature, is a perceivable persistent feature in the thermosphere.

  • 본 연구에서는 탈황석고(DG)에 이산화탄소를 반응시켜 만든 탄산화물(CCMs)의 시멘트 혼합재로서 적용 가능성 분석을 위해 탈황석고와 탄산화물의 미세구조 및 기초물성 분석을 실시하였다. 탈황석고의 경우 CaO 및 CaSO4가, 탄산화물의 경우 CaSO4, CaCO3, Ca(OH)2 및 CaSO4·H2O 결정상이 주 결정상으로 나타났으며 입도분석 결과 두 재료의 평균 입자 크기의 차이는 약 7 ㎛로 나타났다. 또한 탄산화물은 폐기물공정시험기준에 따른 중금속 용출시험 결과 주요 중금속이 불검출되었으며 열중량 분석 결과 탈황석고에 비해 CO2 분해가 2배 이상 나타난 것으로 보아 설비 운전 조건 최적화를 통해 건설 소재 원료로 활용 가능할 것이라 판단된다. 탈황석고와 탄산화물의 함량별 강도 거동 측정 결과 탄산화물 혼입 모르타르의 장기강도가 더 높은 것으로 나타났으며 이는 탄산화물에 존재하는 CaCO3의 충전제 효과 때문인 것으로 나타났다.

  • 곽영실 등(2008)의 연구로부터 고위도 하부 열권의 평균 수평바람 형태는 발산적인 흐름보다는 회전적인 흐름에 더 강하게 지배된다는 것이 확인되었다. 이 연구에서는, 곽영실 등(2008)의 연구의 연장으로, 회전적인 흐름의 척도인 소용돌이도(vorticity)를 유지시켜주는 강제(forcing)항들을 정량화하고 서로 비교 분석함으로써, 고위도 하부 열권에서의 전체 수평 바람장의 강한 회전 흐름을 유발시키는 주된 물리적인 과정을 규명하였다. 이 연구를 위하여 미 국립대기연구소(NCAR)의 열권-이온권 전기역학적 대순환 모델(Thermosphere-ionosphere Electrodynamic General Circulation Model, TIEGCM)을 이용하였다. 고위도 하부 열권의 소용돌이의 변화를 결정하고 유지시켜 주는 주된 강제항은 이온항력(ion drag)항과 수평 이류(horizontal advection)항으로 확인되었다. 늘림(stretching)항 또한 뚜렷한 기여를 하는 것으로 확인되었다. 소용돌이도 강제에 대한 IMF의 영향이 고도 105-110km부근까지 뚜렷하게 나타남이 확인되었다.

  • Chemical oxygen demand (COD), phytoplankton cell number and chlorophyll-a concentration (Chl-a), sediment mean grain size and ignition loss were studied to determine their temporal trends in the study area. Historical data of COD, cell number and Chl-a were gathered from the late 1960s or early 1980s to 1997, and trends in temporal domain were obtained from a simple regression. Sediments for grain size and ignition loss (as organic contents in sediments) were sampled from the Chokchon macrotidal flat bimonthly from September 1990 to November 1996, and were analyzed using the decomposition method of time series analysis. In general, the first three data showed increasing trends based on regression analysis. The trends of sediment grain size fluctuated in a neutral pathway while those of ignition loss yielded no increasing pattern. In contrast with the suggestions from Ahn and Choi (1998) who reported a coarsening variation in sediment grain size to be a cause of the directional and remarkable changes of macrofaunal communities in this area, we could not find such a corresponding variation pattern from our samples. In diagnosing eutrophication, a paradoxical phenomenon was encountered between the trends in water column (COD, cell number and Chl-a) and sediment (ignition loss) data. In this paper, we inferred the possible processes that produce the discrepancy. Some explanations and biological responses to eutrophication were predicted and discussed.

  • Electrical properties of graphene-based field effect transistors (G-FETs) can be degraded in ambient conditions owing to physisorbed oxygen or water molecules on the graphene surface. Passivation technique is one of a fascinating strategy for fabrication of G-FETs, which allows to sustain electrical properties of graphene in the long term without disrupting its inherent properties: transparency, flexibility and thinness. Ironically, despite its importance in producing high performance graphene devices, this method has been much less studied compared to patterning or device fabrication processes. Here we report a novel surface passivation method by using atomically thin self-assembled alkane layers such as C18- NH2, C18-Br and C36 to prevent unintentional doping effects that can suppress the degradation of electrical properties. In each passivated device, we observe a shift in charge neutral point to near zero gate voltage and it maintains the device performance for 1 year. In addition, the fabricated PG-FETs on a plastic substrate with ion-gel gate dielectrics exhibit not only mechanical flexibility but also long-term stability in ambient conditions. Therefore, we believe that these highly transparent and ultra-thin passivation layers can become a promising candidate in a wide range of graphene based electronic applications.
