Spatially rotating magnetic fields have been observed in the solar wind and in the Earth's magnetopause as well as in reversed field pinch (RFP) devices. Such field configurations have a similarity with extended current layers having a spatially varying plasma pressure instead of the spatially varying guide field. It is thus expected that magnetic reconnection may take place in a rotating magnetic field no less than in an extended current layer. We have investigated the spontaneous evolution of a collisionless plasma system embedding a rotating magnetic field with a two-and-a-half-dimensional electromagnetic particle-in-cell (PIC) simulation. In magnetohydrodynamics, magnetic flux can be decreased by diffusion in O-lines. In kinetic physics, however, an asymmetry of the velocity distribution function can generate new magnetic flux near O- and X-lines, hence a dynamo effect. We have found that a magnetic-flux-reducing diffusion phase and a magnetic-flux-increasing dynamo phase are alternating with a certain period. The temperature of the system also varies with the same period, showing a similarity to sawtooth oscillations in tokamaks. We have shown that a modified theory of sawtooth oscillations can explain the periodic behavior observed in the simulation. A strong guide field distorts the current layer as was observed in laboratory experiments. This distortion is smoothed out as magnetic islands fade away by the O-line diffusion, but is soon strengthened by the growth of magnetic islands. These processes are all repeating with a fixed period. Our results suggest that a rotating magnetic field configuration continuously undergoes deformation and relaxation in a short time-scale although it might look rather steady in a long-term view.

석유화학은 전체 산업에너지 소비량 중 약 30%를 소비하는 에너지 다소비 업종으로써 대표적인 이산화탄소(carbon dioxide, CO₂) 배출원이다. 그 중 에틸렌, 프로필렌, 프로판 및 혼합 C4를 생산하는 납사 분해 공정(naphtha cracking center, NCC)은 많은 양의 에너지를 소비하고 상당한 양의 CO₂를 배출한다. 이러한 이유로 경제성과 환경적 측면에서의 효율성을 보장하기 위해 에너지 사용량 및 환경 영향 인자 감소를 목표로 하는 통합 기술경제적-환경영향 평가가 필요하다. 본 연구는 핀치분석에 근거하여 기존 NCC에서 사용되는 열 교환망의 효율성을 분석하고 이를 통해 에너지 사용량을 감축 시킬 수 있는 개선안을 선정하는 것을 목표로 한다. 공정 내 유틸리티 소비량을 줄이기 위하여 고온 스트림과 저온 스트림 사이를 고려한 최적의 열 교환망을 도출하고, 유틸리티 사용량 감소와 열교환기 설치 비용 증가 사이의 트레이드 오프를 고려하여 경제성 평가를 진행하였다. 또한, 환경적 측면을 고려하여 감소된 CO₂ 배출에 대한 환경영향평가를 실시하였고, 경제적-환경 영향 평가는 투자된 자금을 회수하는 회수기간을 사용하여 실제 공정을 바탕으로 적용 가능성이 있는 에너지 절감안을 도출하였다. 경제적-환경영향평가를 고려한 결과 경제성만을 고려한 부분에서는 각 사례별로 4.29개월, 3.21개월, 3.39개월로 나타났고, 경제적-환경 통합 평가의 경우에는 각 사 례별로 4.24개월, 3.17개월, 3.35개월로 각각의 회수기간을 보였다. 이러한 결과는 환경영향평가를 포함하지 않았을 때와 포함하였을 때 모두 동등하게 나타났다. 추가로 주요한 요소가 회수기간에 어느정도 영향을 미치는지 확인하기 위해 각 사례별 민감도 분석을 진행하였다. 민감도 분석결과 열 교환기 비용이 전체적인 비용에 영향을 미치는 주요 원인으로 확인되었다.

백악기 당시 미국 걸프만 퇴적분지는 대륙연변부의 색(sag)형 퇴적분지로서의 진화과정을 거치고 있었다. 두꺼운 백악기의 쇄설성과 탄산염 퇴적층은 상승 교란작용을 받은 암염층을 덮고 있다. 당시 걸프만 퇴적분지의 염분도는 넓게 발달하고 있는 초조간대의 경석고 퇴적층의 분포로 보아 현생의 페르시아만 환경과 유사했던 것으로 추정된다. 하부 백악기의 주요 저류암 (reservoir)으로는 쇄설성 퇴적암층인 카튼밸리(Cotton Valley), 허스톤(Hosston), 트래비스픽(Travis Peak)층과 탄산염 퇴적암층인 슬리고(Sligo), 트리니티(Trinity) - 파인아일랜드(Pine Island), 피어살(Pearsall), 글랜로스(Glen Rose), 에드워드(Edwards), 조오지타운(Georgetown)/부다(Buda) 층이 있다. 이 시기 저류암층에 탄화수소를 공급했던 근원암(source rock)으로는 경사방향 하부(down-dip)에 위치하고 있는 셰일과 이회암층이 꼽히고, 덮개암(seal)은 대개 경사방향 상부(up-dip)에 위치하고 있는 계일과 치밀한 석회암층, 그리고 증발암으로 보인다. 하부 백악기 동안 전 걸프만 퇴적분지는 천해환경하에 있었는데, 남서부 지역은 백악기 말까지 계속 이어졌던 천해 탄산염 환경이,북쪽과 서쪽지역에서는 육성기원의 세립질 퇴적물이 주로 집적되는 환경이었다. 상부 백악기동안에는 걸프만 퇴적분지는 주요한 해수면 상승기와 연관되어 비교적 수심이 깊었던 환경하에 있었으며 이 때 형성된 주요 저류암층으로는 우드바인(Woodbine)/투스칼루사(Tuscaloosa) 사암층, 테일러(Taylor) 나바로(Navarro) 사암층과 오스틴(Austin) 백악 및 탄산염암층이 있다. 이 저류암층에 탄화수소를 공급했던 근원암층으로는 경사방향 하부의 셰일층이, 그리고 덮개암층은 경사방향 상부의 계일층이 그 역할을 담당했던 것으로 해석된다. 뗘악기 하부와 상부 퇴적층의 주요 트랩(trap)으로는 완만한 기둥형(pillow)으로부터 복잡한 다이아피어(diapir) 형태의 암염층 관련 배사구조와 하단 단층블록위에 놓여 있으며 롤오버(rollover) 배사구조를 갖는 성장단층이 있다. 투수 장애(permeability barrier), 상부 경사방향으로 첨멸하는 사암체(up-dip pinch-out sand body깥 침식부정합면(unconformity truncation)도. 걸프만 석유부존에 중요한 역할을 한 트랩들이다. 백악기의 주요한 저류암층들은 범세계 해수면곡선의 하강시기와 잘 일치하고 있는데 이는 백악기동안 형성된 걸프만의 퇴적층서가 범세계 해수면곡선을 전반적으로 잘 반영하고 있음을 의미한다. 즉 퇴적작용을 주로 지배하는 세 즌요 변수인 지구조적인 분지의 침강운동,퇴적물의 공급,해수면 변동오그÷중에서 해수면 변동요소가 이 시기동안 가장 중요한 역할을 했음을 의미한다.

적외선 센서는 빛의 유무에 관계없이 주 야간 전방의 물체에서 발산하는 미약한 적외선(열선)을 감지하여 영상으로 재현하는 열상시스템은 자동차 야간 운전자 보조용 나이트 비젼, 핵심 시설의 감시 관리, 군수 등의 분야에 적용되어지고 있는 최첨단, 고부가가치를 지니고 있는 기술이다. 양자형은 센서 특성은 좋으나 냉각기(작동온도: $-196^{\circ}C$) 및 고진공 패키지인 dewar를 사용하는 반면에, 열형은 대부분 상온에서 동작되는 온도안정화를 위한 전자냉각모듈만을 구비하면 되므로 저가형으로 제작이 가능한 비냉각형 적외선 센서이다. 본 연구에서는 적외선 센서용 진공패키지 조립공정 및 패키지된 센서의 측정기술을 개발하였다. 금속 메탈패키지를 제작하였으며, 금속 진공패키지는 소자냉각용 TE Cooler와 장수명 진공유지를 위한 getter, 그리고 센서칩, 온도센서를. 장착하여 칩을 조립하였다. Cap ass'y와 base envelop의 솔더링 공정을 수행하였으며, 진공패키지의 진공유지를 위해 TMP를 이용하여 진공을 유지하고, 약 5일동안 패키지 bake-out을 수행하였다. 진공압력은 $10^{-7}\;torr$ 이하를 유지하였으며, getter를 활성화시키고, pinch-off 공정으로 조립 ass'y를 완성하였다. 진공 패키지의 기밀성은 He leak tester를 이용하여 측정하였으며, ${\sim}10^{-9}\;std.cm^3/sec$로 기밀성을 유지하였다. TE cooler를 작동한 온도안정성은 0.05 K 이하였다. 볼로미터 센서의 반응도는 $10^2\;V/W$ 이상을 나타내었으며, 탐지도는 $2{\times}10^8cm-Hz^{1/2}/W$를 나타내었다. 본 연구를 통하여 얻어진 결과는 향후 2차원 열영상용 어레이 검출기 및 웨이퍼수준의 패키징 공정에 유용하게 응용될 것으로 판단된다.

Purpose: Transverse type or volar oblique type of defect of thumb tip can be covered by Moberg flap or second toe pulp free flap. We compared these two methods in functional result, patients' satisfaction, and sensation, etc. to find a better way to cover the defect of the thumb tip. Methods: From 2003 to 2006, we chose the patients randomly with preoperative pictures. The patients had the defect of the thumb tip which is either transverse or volar oblique type. The 6 patients were treated with Moberg flap and other 6 patients were treated with second toe pulp free flap. We have analyzed the results by 2 point discrimination, side pinching power test, pulp to pulp pinching power test, pain scales (visual analogue scale), satisfaction scales of the patients (functional and aesthetic), the degree of the range of motion, etc. Results: All flaps survived without any complications. In the cases of Moberg flaps, the value of static 2 point discrimination test was 5.6 mm, and the value of moving 2 point discrimination test was 4.8 mm. In the cases of second toe pulp free flaps, the values were 9.6 mm and 9.3 mm. In the cases of Moberg flaps, the value of the Side pinch power test was 6.6 kg, 4.4 kg. In the case of second toe pulp free flaps, the values were 4.8 kg and 2.5 kg. The value of aesthetic satisfaction scale of the patients in Moberg flaps was 5.6, the value of functional satisfaction scale of the patients was 3.6. In cases of second toe pulp free flaps, the values were 5.6 and 3.6. The active range of motion of Interphalangeal joint in the cases of Moberg flaps was 46.6 degree, and the active range of motion of metacarpophalangeal joint was 55 degree, in the cases of second toe pulp free flaps, the values were 36.6 degree and 59 degree. Conclusion: As a result, when the defect of the thumb tip is transverse or volar oblique type, we suggest that the operators choose Moberg flap to cover the defect of the thumb tip.

Background Burn infliction techniques are poorly described in rat models. An accurate study can only be achieved with wounds that are uniform in size and depth. We describe a simple reproducible method for creating consistent burn wounds in rats. Methods Ten male Sprague-Dawley rats were anesthetized and dorsum shaved. A 100 g cylindrical stainless-steel rod (1 cm diameter) was heated to $100^{\circ}C$ in boiling water. Temperature was monitored using a thermocouple. We performed two consecutive toe-pinch tests on different limbs to assess the depth of sedation. Burn infliction was limited to the loin. The skin was pulled upwards, away from the underlying viscera, creating a flat surface. The rod rested on its own weight for 5, 10, and 20 seconds at three different sites on each rat. Wounds were evaluated for size, morphology and depth. Results Average wound size was $0.9957cm^2$ (standard deviation [SD] 0.1845) (n=30). Wounds created with duration of 5 seconds were pale, with an indistinct margin of erythema. Wounds of 10 and 20 seconds were well-defined, uniformly brown with a rim of erythema. Average depths of tissue damage were 1.30 mm (SD 0.424), 2.35 mm (SD 0.071), and 2.60 mm (SD 0.283) for duration of 5, 10, 20 seconds respectively. Burn duration of 5 seconds resulted in full-thickness damage. Burn duration of 10 seconds and 20 seconds resulted in full-thickness damage, involving subjacent skeletal muscle. Conclusions This is a simple reproducible method for creating burn wounds consistent in size and depth in a rat burn model.

Nutrition counselors in Korea often encounter difficulty in their attempt to change village women's attitudes regarding food taboos which are counter to good eating habits. There are a great many food superstitions which are not due to religious influence, but seem to be related to shape and composition of food. Many expectant mothers superstitiously avoid eating certain foods for fear that they may cause mental or physical abnormality in their babies. As was shown in a previous survey (Mo, 1966)of villages in all provinces except Jeju Island, such superstitions were common among pregnant and lactating mothers. Many food taboos and superstitions based on non-scientific and irrational ideas do exist even in modern society, and are a major obstacle to nutritionally adequate food consumption. A study of food taboos among women of Jeju Island was undertaken from November to December of 1976, these results to be compared as well with those of the previous study. There were 73 items found to be prohibited during pregnancy. Of these, 48.7% were of the deaf group, 17.4% fish, 5.5% eggs, 4.7% cereal, and only 2.2% fruit. Of 252% women respondents, 111 (45% ) abstained from eating chicken, duck, and shark because of the belief that they would cause their babies to be born with gooseflesh or shark skin. Many of them avoided rabbit meat for fear that their babies might be born with harelip. It was also feared that a baby would become disfigured if his mother ate duck, goat, dog meat, chicken or duck eggs, or soup made of bones. A common superstition was that highly spiced or salty foods would cause the fetus to be hairless. Squid and octopus were believed to cause babies to have weak bones, or none at all. Most of these food taboos were associated with fears concerning Physical structure and appearance of unborn babies. Other taboos were associated with fear of undesirable behavioral characteristics. For example, some mothers thought that a baby would pinch or bite the mother's breast during the weaning period, if crab meat were eaten during pregnancy. Unevenly sliced rice cake, loach, snake meat and eel were also believed to cause a baby to be ill-tempered. The findings of this study are remarkably similar to those of the previous study conducted by the authour in 1966. Most of the same food taboos, based on non-scientific and irrational reasons, were found on Jeju Island as on the peninsula, and thor were similarly wide-spread. The results of correlational analysis show that the most significant factors related to prevalence of food taboos, are level of education and religious background. Number of food taboos is correlated with level of education. Also, food taboos are least freqent among the Christian woman. Proper nutrition education should he undertaken in order to encourage intake of protein-rich food, particularly during pregnancy when nutritional needs of mother and fetus are great.

Objective : Cervical surgery in patients with cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) and cerebral palsy (CP) is challenging owing to the complexities of the deformity. We assessed factors affecting postoperative complications and outcomes after CSM surgery in patients with CP. Methods : Thirty-five consecutive patients with CP and CSM who underwent cervical operations between January 2006 and January 2014 were matched to 35 non-cerebral palsy (NCP) control patients. Postoperative complications and radiologic outcomes were compared between the groups. In the CP group, the Japanese Orthopaedic Association score; Oswestry neck disability index; modified Barthel index; and values for the grip and pinch, Box and Block, and Jebsen-Taylor hand function tests were obtained pre- and postoperatively and compared between those with and without postoperative complications. Results : Sixteen patients (16/35%) in the CP group and seven (7/35%) in the NCP group (p=0.021) had postoperative complications. Adjacent segment degeneration (p=0.021), postoperative motor weakness (p=0.037), and revisions (p=0.003) were significantly more frequent in the CP group than in the NCP group; however, instrument-related complications were not significantly higher in the CP group (7/35 vs. 5/35, p=0.280). The number of preoperative fixed cervical deformities were significantly higher in CP with postoperative complications (5/16 vs. 1/19, p=0.037). In the CP group, clinical outcomes were almost similar between those with and without postoperative complications. Conclusion : The occurrence of complications during the follow-up period was high in patients with CP. However, postoperative complications did not significantly affect clinical outcomes.

It is believed that geological survey, drilling and geophysical survey which was carried out on Tertiary deposits in Pohang is a valuable but through the studying of many Tertiary sediments in Japan discovered many questions on analysis of final report prepared by National geological survey. The main reason is: 1. The seismic sound velocity which have regulated in the final report prepared by geological survey for Tertiary deposits in Pohang was 1,500-2,000m/sec in spite of oil bearing sediments of same age in Japan are 2,000-3,800m/sec. These may means the requirement of reconsideration of seismic velocity for Tertiary deposits in Pohang and required to have a dipper drilling. 2. Stratigraphically, geophysically, and paleontologically, the Tertiary deposits in Pahang land area is similar with that of Nishiyama-Hunakawa formations of Akita oil field in Japan. Nishiyama-Hunakawa formation is the main oil bearing formation in Japan. 3. Those valcanic rock including andestitic rock and liparitic rock which have extensively distributed over either at land area or at sea bottom, assumed by geological survey as the base of Tertiary sediments. But in case of Japan many oil bearing deposits are in over laid by these kind of volcanic rock. Therefore a possible of same condition with Japan is presumable on Tertiary sediments in Pohang. 4. It is believed that the Tertiary sediments of land area in Pohang is the extension of offshore basin but is wandering that the final report submitted by geologic survey have not remain any word on report of ECAFE discribed so much problematics as followed: A. Although it was assumed that no great thickness exceeding 1,000 meters, or major structures would be encountered in the Tertiary offshore sequence, it was hoped that shallow hydrocarbon deposits might be found, because these sediment are lithologically similar to those of the same age in the producing area of the northwest Honshu region of Japan where hydrocarbon are extracted from depths of only 500 to 600 meters. B. Four possible hydrocarbon trap conditions are represented in the survey area: anticlinal folds, faults, pinch outs, along the igneous basement and lateral facies changes. C. Most of the prime possible reservoir area are beyond the 50 meter water depth mark, except for the structures in Yonil Bay. D. Despite the shallowness of the offshore basin, sufficient trap condition exist in the area to warrant further exploration for hydrocarbon. 5. All of the problems mentioned above have gave us a strong reasons to have us hesitating to make a final conclusion on Tertiary problems in Pohang, before to have a drill to a depth to 3,000 meters or more whatever it is the Tertiary or a Mesozoics below 1,000 meters.

We studied the fabrication of GaAs-based pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistors(PHEMT`s) for the purpose of millimeter- wave applications. To fabricate the high performance GaAs-based PHEMT`s, we performed the simulation to analyze the designed epitaxial-structures. Each unit processes, such as 0.1 m$\mu$$\Gamma$-gate lithography, silicon nitride passivation and air-bridge process were developed to achieve high performance device characteristics. The DC characteristics of the PHEMT`s were measured at a 70 $\mu$m unit gate width of 2 gate fingers, and showed a good pinch-off property ($V_p$= -1.75 V) and a drain-source saturation current density ($I_{dss}$) of 450 mA/mm. Maximum extrinsic transconductance $(g_m)$ was 363.6 mS/mm at $V_{gs}$ = -0.7 V, $V_{ds}$ = 1.5 V, and $I_{ds}$ =0.5 $I_{dss}$. The RF measurements were performed in the frequency range of 1.0~50 GHz. For this measurement, the drain and gate voltage were 1.5 V and -0.7 V, respectively. At 50 GHz, 9.2 dB of maximum stable gain (MSG) and 3.2 dB of $S_{21}$ gain were obtained, respectively. A current gain cut-off frequency $(f_T)$ of 106 GHz and a maximum frequency of oscillation $(f_{max})$ of 160 GHz were achieved from the fabricated PHEMT\\`s of 0.1 m$\mu$ gate length.h.
