천연고무와 실리콘고무에 자기장응답형 분말을(Magnetic Responsible Powder; MRP) 배합하여 자기장응답형 엘라스토머(Magneto-rheological Elastomer; MRE)를 제조하였다. MRP의 최적 사용량은 30 vol.% 였으며 천연고무 기반 MRE의 기계적 물성은 실리콘고무 기반 MRE 보다 우수했지만, magneto-rheological (MR) 효과는 실리콘고무 기반 MRE가 더욱 우수하였다. MR 효과는 Self-modified Electromagnet Applied Fast Fourier Transform Analyser (SEFFTA)를 사용하여 측정되었는데 천연고무 기반 MRE의 경우는 10%, 실리콘고무 기반 MRE의 경우는 최대 35.7%까지 나타내었다. 네오디뮴 자석을 이용하여 MRE를 경화시키기 전 MRP를 선 배향 시킬 경우 더욱 우수한 MR 효과를 얻을 수 있었으며, MRP의 배향은 주사전자현미경을 이용하여 분석하였다.

본 논문은 depth image에서 검출된 손가락 경계의 거리 그래프 이용하여 손가락을 인식하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 거리 그래프는 손바닥 중심과 손 윤곽선 사이의 각도와 유클리디안 거리를 각각 x, y축으로 하여 보여준다. 그래프가 손끝에서 국부 최대점을 갖는다는 사실을 이용하여 손 형태를 얻을 수 있다. 손가락이 손바닥보다 얇은 것을 이용하여 손목의 무게 중심을 찾은 후에, 손목의 무게 중심의 각도를 기준 각도 $0^{\circ}$로 설정하였다. 모의실험 결과는 제안된 알고리즘이 손의 방향에 영향을 받지 않으며 손가락 상태를 보다 잘 검출할 수 있는 것을 보여준다.

On the basis that ground motions may arrive at a structure from any horizontal direction and that different directions of seismic incidence would result in different structural dynamic responses, this paper focuses on orienting the crucial seismic incidence of transmission tower-line systems based on the wavelet energy method. A typical transmission tower-line system is chosen as the case study, and two finite element (FE) models are established in ABAQUS, with and without consideration of the interaction between the transmission towers and the transmission lines. The mode combination frequency is defined by considering the influence of the higher-order modes of the structure. Subsequently, wavelet transformation is performed to obtain the total effective energy input and the effective energy input rate corresponding to the mode combination frequency to further judge the critical angle of seismic incidence by comparing these two performance indexes under different seismic incidence angles. To validate this approach, finite element history analysis (FEHA) is imposed on both FE models to generate comparative data, and good agreement is found. The results demonstrate that the wavelet energy method can forecast the critical angle of seismic incidence of a transmission tower-line system with adequate accuracy, avoiding time-consuming and cumbersome computer analysis. The proposed approach can be used in future seismic design of transmission tower-line systems.

As Kori unit 1 is undergoing the decommissioning process, estimating the disposal amount of waste from the decommissioned nuclear reactor has become one of the challenging issues. Since the waste disposal amount estimation depends on the packing of the waste, it is highly desirable to optimize the waste packing plan. In this study, we developed an efficient scheme for packing waste component segments. The scheme consists of 1) preparing three-dimensional models of segments, 2) orienting each segment in such a way to minimize the bounding box volume, and 3) applying hybrid genetic algorithm to pack the segments in the disposal containers. When the packing solution converges in the algorithm, it comes up with the number of containers used and the placement of segments in each container. The scheme was applied to Kori-1 reactor pressure vessel. The required number of containers calculated by the developed scheme was 24 compared to 42 that was the estimation of the prior packing plan, resulting in disposal volume savings by more than 40%. The developed method is flexible for applications to various packing problems with waste segments from different cutting options and different sizes of containers.

Recent experimental studies have been shown that strain gages can be employed to determine either static or dynamic stress intensity factors $K_{I}$ wiht relatively simple experiments. However, it does not usually provide a reliable value of stress intensity factor because of local yielding and limited regions for strain gage placement at the vicinity of the crack tip. This paper attempted to define a valid region and to indicate procedures for locating and orienting the strain gage to determine static toughness $K_{Is}$ accurately form one strain gage readings with respect to varying loadings. The strain gage methods was used for compact tension specimens made of Polycarbonate and PMMA(polymethyl methacrylate). Series expansions of the static and dynamic strain fields are applied. Strain gage orientation and location are then studied to optimize the strain response. Especially, in the dynamic experiment, the specimen employed is an oversized Charpy V-notch specimen which has been modified to provide significant constraint with a large elevation of the flow stress. The impact behavior of the specimen is monitored by placing strain gage near the crack tip. The dynamic toughness $K_{Id}$ is determined from the strain time traces of this gage.e.

The $[Ru(tpy)_2]Cl_2$ (tpy:2,2':6',2"-terpyridine) complex was synthesized and its structure was confirmed by $^1H$-NMR and elemental analysis. Its binding mode toward DNA was compared with the well-known $[Ru(bpy)_3]Cl_2$ (bpy:2,2-bipyridyl), using isotropic absorption, linear dichroism(LD) spectroscopy, and an energy minimization study. Compared to $[Ru(bpy)_3]^{2+}$, the $[Ru(tpy)_2]^{2+}$ complex exhibited very little change in its absorption pattern, especially in the MLCT band, upon binding to DNA. Furthermore, upon DNA binding, both Ru(II) complexes induced a decrease in the LD magnitude in the DNA absorption region. The $[Ru(tpy)_2]^{2+}$ complex produced a strong positive LD signal in the ligand absorption region, which is in contrast with the $[Ru(bpy)_3]^{2+}$ complex. Observed spectral properties led to the conclusion that the interaction between the ligands and DNA bases is negligible for the $[Ru(tpy)_2]^{2+}$ complex, although it formed an adduct with DNA. This conclusion implies that both complexes bind to the surface of DNA, most likely to negatively charged phosphate groups via a simple electrostatic interaction, thereby orienting to exhibit the LD signal. The energy minimization calculation also supported this conclusion.

The adsorption of cellulase on celluloses with different crystallinities was carried out In nonionic surfactant(Tween 20) solution. Highly crystallized celluloses were prepared by enzymatic prehydrolyzation. From the experiments, the Langmuir isotherm parameters, maximum adsorption amount (Amax) and adsorption equilibrium constant(Kad) for the adsorption, were obtained in the presence and absence of nonionic surfactant. It was found that the Kad values were decreased by adding Tween 20. This indicates that the adsorption affinity is reduced by nonionic surfactant, and Amax decreased with increasing crystallinity under conditions accompanying in both the presence and absence of surfactant. The thermodynamic parameters such as $\Delta$Ha, $\Delta$Ga, and $\Delta$Sa for the adsorption were calculated by using the experimental data. From these results, it was found that the adsorption processes are exothermic reactions in both the presence and absence of surfactant. The heats of adsorption in surfactant solution(-4.68∼-3.62KJmol-1) are smaller than that of the adsorption in the absence of surfactant(-15.60∼-12.10KJmol-1). These results indicated that the tightness of adsorption was reduced by the addition of surfactant. The $\Delta$Sa values were estimated to be positive. This may suggest that the water and solute are released from cellulose on adsorption. The $\Delta$Sa values in surfactant solution are larger than that of the adsorption in the absence of surfactant. This may suggest that the binding of surfactant on hydrophobic region of cellulase cause dispersion of water and solute molecule orienting around the enzyme molecule. The surfactant played an important role in the desorption of enzyme from cellulose functional groups, and enhance the saccharification of the cellulose.

Superficial inferior epigastric artery (SIEA) flaps represent a useful option in autologous breast reconstruction. However, the short-fixed pedicle can limit flap inset options. We present a challenging flap inset successfully addressed by de-epithelialization, turnover, and counterintuitive rotation. A 47-year-old woman underwent left tertiary breast reconstruction with stacked free flaps using right deep inferior epigastric perforator and left SIEA vessels. Antegrade and retrograde anastomoses to the internal mammary (IM) vessels were preferred; additionally, the thoracodorsal vessels were unavailable due to previous latissimus dorsi breast reconstruction. Optimal shaping required repositioning of the lateral ends of the flaps superiorly, which would position the ipsilateral SIEA hemi-flap pedicle lateral to and out of reach of the IM vessels. This problem was overcome by turning the SIEA flap on its long axis, allowing the pedicle to sit medially with the lateral end of the flap positioned superiorly. The de-epithelialized SIEA flap dermis was in direct contact with the chest wall, enabling its fixation. This method of flap inset provides a valuable solution for medializing the SIEA pedicle while maintaining an aesthetically satisfactory orientation. This technique could be used in ipsilateral SIEA flap breast reconstructions that do not require a skin paddle, as with stacked flaps or following nipple-sparing mastectomy.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the differences between attentional networks according to sex and reflection-impulsivity in the cognitive styles of young children. The subjects of the study were 78 5-year-old children from the kindergarten or daycare center in Busan(with 40 in the reflection group, and 38 in the impulsivity group). The tests were conducted by using the Mating Familiar Test and the Attentional Network Test for young children. The study has used two independent t-tests to find out the differences between attentional networks according to sex, and reflection-impulsivity in the cognitive styles of young children. The results of this study were as follows. First, the boys with reflection cognitive style were significantly slower than the girls with the same style(t=2.18, p<.05). Second, young children with reflection cognitive style were significantly faster in the case of alerting effects than those with impulsivity cognitive style(t=-2.53, p<.05). The young children with reflection cognitive style were slower than those with impulsivity cognitive style in the case of orienting effect(t=2.04, p<.05). Children with a combination of both conflict effect and reflection cognitive style were significantly faster than those with impulsivity cognitive style(t=-2.89, p<.01). The results of the study suggested that there was a difference between attentional networks according to sex and reflection-impulsivity cognitive styles of young children.
