In this paper, a new approach has been studied correcting the geometric distortion of SPOT 4 imagery. Two new equations were induced by the relationship between satellite and the Earth in the space. line-of-sight (LOS) vector adjustment model for SPOT 4 imagery was implemented in this study. This model is to adjust LOS vector under the assumption that the orbital information of satellite provided by receiving station is uncertain and this uncertainty makes a constant error over the image. This model is verified using SPOT 4 satellite image with high look angle and thirty five ground points, which include 10 GCPs(Ground Control Points) and 25 check points, measured by the GPS. In total thirty five points, the geometry of satellite image calculated by given satellite information(such as satellite position, velocity, attitude and look angles, etc) from SPOT 4 satellite image was distorted with a constant error. Through out the study, it was confirmed that the LOS vector adjustment model was able to be applied to SPOT4 satellite image. Using this model, RMSEs (Root Mean Square Errors) of twenty five check points taken by increasing the number of GCPs from two to ten were less than one pixel. As a result, LOS vector adjustment model could efficiently correct the geometry of SPOT4 images with only two GCPs. This method also is expected to get good results for the different satellite images that are similar to the geometry of SPOT images.

Three-dimensional structures of large ocean rings in the Gulf Stream region are investigated using the HYbrid Coordinate Ocean Model (HYCOM). Numerically simulated flow structures around four selected cyclonic and anticyclonic rings are compared with two different horizontal resolutions: $1/12^{\circ}$ and $1/48^{\circ}$. The vertical distributions of Lagrangian Coherent Structures (LCSs) are analyzed using Finite Size Lyapunov Exponent (FSLE) and Okubo-Weiss parameters (OW). Curtain-shaped FSLE ridges are found in all four rings with extensions of surface ridges throughout the water columns, indicating that horizontal stirring is dominant over vertical motions. Near the high-resolution rings, many small-scale flow structures with size O(1~10) km are observed while these features are rarely found near the low-resolution rings. These small-scale structures affect the flow pattern around the rings as flow particles move more randomly in the high-resolution models. The dispersion rates are also affected by these small-scale structures as the relative horizontal dispersion coefficients are larger for the high-resolution models. The absolute vertical dispersion rates are, however, lower for the high-resolution models, because the particles tend to move along inclined eddy orbits when the resolution is low and this increases the magnitude of absolute vertical dispersion. Since relative vertical dispersion can reduce this effect from the orbital trajectories of particles, it gives a more reasonable magnitude range than absolute dispersion, and so is recommended in estimating vertical dispersion rates.

The gas-phase S_N2$ reactions can be classified into neutral bimolecular, solvated, and ionic reactions; the neutral bimolecular reaction proceeds via retention mechanism whereas the ionic reaction produces inversion products. In the reaction of solvated nucleophile with one solvent molecule, a six-center transition state (TS) is formed and the two processes i.e., retention and inversion, are found to compete with a favored path depending on the electronic effect of the nucleophile and substituents in the substrate and on the steric requirement. In the ionic reaction, the difference in the energy barrier between the two processes reduces to a small value when the substrate methyl group is made bulky, leaving ability of the leaving group is improved and at the same time the negative charge of the nucleophile is dispersed. When the reaction center atom in the $S_N2$ reaction is changed to a larger sized second row elements, the activation barrier decreases since the steric crowding in the penta-coordinated TS is relieved. However within the same row, the barrier was found to increase as the atomic size decreased. For the boron, B, the barrier height was the least since in addition to the relatively large atomic size compared to C and N, it forms tetra-coordinated TS so that the steric crowding becomes nearly negligible.

3~5 족 반도체 물질인 phosphorus 화합물 중 대표적인 InAlP 삼종화합물은 작은 굴절률, 큰 밴드갭, GaAs와 lattice 일치 때문에 큰 주목을 받고 있고, p-type high electron mobility transistors(p-HEMT), laser diodes 등의 고속 전자소자 및 광전 소자에 응용이 가능한 매우 중요한 물질이다. 최적의 소자 응용기술을 위해서는, 정확한 광물성 연구가 수행되어야 하지만 InxAl1-xP 화합물에 대한 유전율 함수 및 전자전이점 등의 연구는 미흡한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 1.5~6.0 eV 에너지 영역에서 각기 다른 In 조성비를 갖는 InxAl1-xP 화합물의 가유전율 함수 ${\varepsilon}={\varepsilon}_1+i{\varepsilon}_2$와 전자전이점 데이터를 보고한다. GaAs 기판 위에 molecular beam epitaxy (MBE)를 이용하여 InxAl1-xP (x=0.000, 0.186, 0.310, 0.475, 0.715, 0.831, 1.000) 박막을 성장하였고 타원편광분석기를 이용하여 유전율 함수를 측정하였다. 또한 실시간 화학적 에칭을 통하여 시료 표면에 자연산화막을 제거함으로써 순수한 InAlP의 유전율 함수를 측정할 수 있었고, 측정된 유전율 함수를 이차미분하여 In 조성비에 따른 전자전이점을 얻을 수 있었다. 얻어진 전자전이점 값을 이용하여 linear augmented Slater-type orbital method (LASTO) 를 통해 이론적 전자 밴드 구조 계산을 하였고, 이를 바탕으로 $E_0$, $E_1$, $E_2$ 전이점 지역의 여러 전자전이점($E_1$, $E_1+{\Delta}_1$, $E_0'$, $E_0'+{\Delta}_0'$, $E_2$, $E_2'$)의 특성을 정의할 수 있었고, $E_0'$과 $E_2$ 전이점의 에너지 값이 In 조성비가 증가함에 따라 서로 교차함을 발견할 수 있었다. 타원 편광 분석법을 이용한 유전율 함수 및 전자전이점 연구는 InAlP의 광학적 데이터베이스를 확보하는 성과와 더불어 새로운 디바이스 기술 및 광통신 산업에도 유용한 정보가 될 것이다.

Quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSARs) on the pre-emergency herbicidal activity and reactivity of a series of new O,O-dialkyl-1-phenoxyacetoxy-1-methylphosphonates (S) analogues against seed of cucumber (Cucumus Sativa) were discussed quantitatively using 2D-QSAR and HQSAR methods. The statistical values of HQSAR model were better than that of 2D-QSAR model. From the frontier molecular orbital (FMO) interaction between substrate molecule (S) and $BH^+$ ion (I) in PDH enzyme, the electrophilic reaction was superior in reactivity. From the effect of substituents, $R_2$-groups in substrate molecule (S) contributed to electrophilic reaction with carbonyl oxygen atom while X, Y-groups contributed to nucleophilic reaction with carbonyl carbon atom. And the influence of X,Y-groups was more effective than that of $R_2$-groups. As a results of 2D-QSAR model (I & II) and atomic contribution maps with HQSAR model, the more length of X, Y-groups is longer, the more herbicidal activity tends to increased. And also, the optimal ${\epsilon}LUMO$ energy, $({\epsilon}LUMO)_{opt.}$=-0.479 (e.v.) of substrate molecule is important factor in determining the herbicidal activity. It is predicted that the herbicidal activity proceeds through a nucleophilic reaction. From the analytical results of 2D-QSAR and HQSAR model, it is suggested that the structural distinctions and descriptors that contribute to herbicidal activities will be able to applied new herbicide design.

The BVR CCD photometric observations of W UMa-type eclipsing binary SS Ari were made on ten nights from November 1996 to December 1996. Eight new times of minimum lights were derived. The analysis of times of minima of SS Ari confirms the suggestions of other previous investigators that the orbital period of SS Ari have been suffering from a sinusoidal varition. The amplitude and period for the cyclic period changes were calculated as about $58^{y}$ and $0.^{d}053$, respectively. The period variation has been discussed in terms of two potential mechanisms: 1) the light-time effect due to a hypothetical third body and 2) deformations in the convective envelope of a magnetically active component. In the earlier case, the third body has a mass of $1.3M_{\odot}$, if exist, in the form of a white dwarf or a binary system. It seems that the system velocities from the spectroscopic observations supports this interpretation. Meanwhile in the latter case, the primary component is mainly responsible for the magnetic activity of this system with a theoretical amplitude of $\pm0.^{m}08$. However, we cannot make a conclusion which is reasonable explanation at this point, due to lack of observational data. Moreover, the period variation of SS Ari shows duplication about $14^y$, cyclic period with an amplitude of about $0.^d001$ to the above periodic change. We also cannot make an acceptable conclusion for it at this time.

Change in morphological and biological characteristics of Japanese eel, Anguilla japonica, by maturation were determined by examination of 182 individuals collected in Korea waters from September to December 2014. Eels were classified into four stages based on the silvering index. The proportion of silver eels collected from streams and estuaries (34.6%) was higher than that from the freshwater reservoirs (3.8%). The sex ratio between female and male was 1:0.11 (n=182). Mean total length and weight were positively related to the silvering process. The ratios of head and pectoral lengths to total length and the ratio of horizontal and vertical orbital diameters to head length were significantly different between the maturation stages. However the ratio of pre-dorsal and pre-anal lengths to total length were not significantly different between the maturation stages. The gonado-somatic index was the single character that could identify the whole four stages among the indices examined: gonado-somatic index (GSI), condition factor (K), gut index (GI) and eye index (EI) but hepato-somatic index (HSI). One pseudo-silver eel collected. looked like a late silver eel in the S2 stage according to its external body color and morphology, but most of other characteristics suggested that it might be in Y1 (yellow eel) or Y2 stage (late yellow eel).

STO-3G level computations were performed on n-propylamine, n-propylamine radical and cis-and trans-ethylene diamines in order to investigate structural contributions of (n${\pi}$/m) and (n-${\sigma}^*$) structures to the energy variations accompanying the conformational changes. It was found that (5${\pi}$/5) and (4${\pi}$/4) structures had attractive and repulsive nonbonded interactions, respectively, which were approximately additive. anti(n-${\sigma}^*$) structures had more stabilzing hyperconjugative interactions than syn(n-${\sigma}^*$) structures, but due to the large internuclear repulsion the net effect was destabilizing inthe former in contrast with the net stabilizing contribution in the latter. Moreover it was found that the stabilizing ${\pi}$-nonbond structure, (5${\pi}$/5) was always cooperatively reinforced by the more stabilizing anti(n-${\sigma}^*$) interaction, whereas the destabilizing (4${\pi}$/4) structure was accompanied by the less stabilizing syn(n-${\sigma}^*$) interaction. This type of cooperativity was found general through-bond interaction of the terminal lone pair lobes split the energy levels into two, $n_+ = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}(n_1 + n_2)$ and $n_- = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}(n_1 - n_2)$, the latter being the lower level, which can be shown using simple overlap patterns of the two lobes with a common vicinal ${\sigma}^*$ orbital.

Objectives: The facial bones are the most noticeable area in the human body, and facial injuries can cause significant functional, aesthetic, and psychological complications. Continuous study of the patterns of facial bone fractures and changes in trends is helpful in the prevention and treatment of maxillofacial fractures. The purpose of the current clinico-statistical study is to investigate the pattern of facial fractures over a 4-year period. Materials and Methods: A retrospective analysis of 1,824 fracture sites was carried out in 1,284 patients admitted to SMG-SNU Boramae Medical Center for facial bone fracture from January 2010 to December 2013. We evaluated the distributions of age/gender/season, fracture site, cause of injury, duration from injury to treatment, hospitalization period, and postoperative complications. Results: The ratio of men to women was 3.2:1. Most fractures occurred in individuals aged between teens to 40s and were most prevalent at the middle and end of the month. Fractures occurred in the nasal bone (65.0%), orbital wall (29.2%), maxillary wall (15.3%), zygomatic arch (13.2%), zygomaticomaxillary complex (9.8%), mandibular symphysis (6.5%), mandibular angle (5.9%), mandibular condyle (4.9%), and mandibular body (1.9%). The most common etiologies were fall (32.5%) and assault (26.0%). The average duration of injury to treatment was 6 days, and the average hospitalization period was 5 days. Eighteen postoperative complications were observed in 17 patients, mainly infection and malocclusion in the mandible. Conclusion: This study reflects the tendency for trauma in the Seoul metropolitan region because it analyzes all facial fracture patients who visited our hospital regardless of the specific department. Distinctively, in this study, midfacial fractures had a much higher incidence than mandible fractures.

It is suggested that a flying-by star in a hot accretion disk may cool the hot accretion disk by the Comptonization of the stellar emission. Such a stellar cooling can be observed in the radio frequency regime since synchrotron luminosity depends strongly on the electron temperature of the accretion flow. If a bright star orbiting around the supermassive black hole cools the hot disk, one should expect a quasi-periodic modulation in radio, or even possible an anti-correlation of luminosities in radio and X-rays. Recently, the unprecedentedly accurate infrared imaging of the Sagittarius A$\ast$ for about ten years enables us to resolve stars around it and thus determine orbital parameters of the currently closest star S2. We explore the possibility of using such kind of observation to distinguish two quite different physical models for the central engine of the Sagittarius A$\ast$, that is, a hot accretion disk model and a jet model. We have attempted to estimate the observables using the observed parameters of the star S2. The relative difference in the electron temperature is a few parts of a thousand at the epoch when the star S2 is near at the pericenter. The relative radio luminosity difference with and without the stellar cooling is also small of order $10^{-4}$, particularly even when the star S2 is near at the pericenter. On the basis of our findings we tentatively conclude that even the currently closest pass of the star S2 is insufficiently close enough to meaningfully constrain the nature of the Sagittarius A$\ast$ and distinguish two competing models. This implies that even though Bower et al. (2002)have found no periodic radio flux variations in their data set from 1981 to 1998, which is naturally expected from the presence of a hot disk, a hot disk model cannot be conclusively ruled out. This is simply because the energy bands they have studied are too high to observe the effect of the star S2 even if it indeed interacts with the hot disk. In other words, even if there is a hot accretion disk the star like S2 has imprints in the frequency range at v $\le$ 100 MHz.
