본 연구는 지난 4년간 한국도로공사 시험도로 아스팔트 포장의 주요 손상인자의 정량화와 그 변화를 다루고 있다. 포장상태조사 장비인 ARAN(Automatic Road Analyzer)을 이용하여 준공 직후인 2002년 12월부터 2006년 10월까지 총 5차례에 걸쳐 아스팔트 전단면에 대해 노면상태를 측정하고 소성변형, 균열손상, 그리고 종단평탄성을 중심으로 그 결과를 분석하였다. 실내시험을 통해 시험도로의 아스팔트 혼합물의 온도와 하중 재하속도에 대한 선형점탄성 거동을 비교하고, 표층용 혼합물인 ASTM 19mm에 대해서는 동탄성계수에 미치는 공극률의 영향도 검토하였다. 일반 밀입도 표층 단면의 차륜부에서 추출한 시편의 공극률을 측정하여 시험도로 포장의 다짐도 변화를 추정하였으며 이를 바탕으로 다짐도-포장 손상의 관계를 검토하였다. 교통하중과 포장 손상과의 연관성 분석 결과 소성변형과 균열을 포함한 노면 손상의 증가는 교통하중이 재하되는 시기와 바로 일치하지는 않았으며 오히려 온도와 같은 환경에 더 영향을 받는 것으로 관측되었다. 반면에 노면 평탄성은 공용년수가 증가 하면서 교통하중에 민감하게 반응하였으며 환경인자와의 상관성은 매우 낮은 것으로 나타났다.

Apple (Malus×domestica Borkh.; Rosaceae) is an important fruit crop grown mainly in temperate regions of the world. Tissue culture in vitro is a biotechnological technique that has been used to genetically improve cultivars (scions) and rootstocks. This could be important in the production of genetically uniform scions and rootstocks for commercial apple production. In nurseries, apple plants are produced by grafting scions onto rootstocks. The Cornell-Geneva (Geneva® series) breeding program has bred several dwarf rootstocks that are resistant to diseases and pests and are also cold hardy. This study was conducted to determine the optimal medium strength to improve sprouting shoot rate of apical meristem of the apple rootstocks of fire blight resistance. The apple rootstocks apical meristem at size (0.2 mm to 0.3 mm) with axillary buds were cultured on the MS(Murashige & Skoog) medium supplemented with plant growth regulators. The sprouting ratio and growth characteristics was evaluated after eight weeks in vitro culture. The highest rate of bud differentiation and shoot formation were 23.8% and 55.6%, respectively. After 6 weeks, shoots were regenerated from apical meristem, and their growth characteristics was significantly varied on the respective basal medium with different plant growth regulators. Our studies showed that the apple rootstocks the apple rootstocks of fire blight resistance plantlets could be successfully produced from apical meristem differentiated out of young twigs via organogenic regeneration.

본 논문에서는 평활화 유한요소법(Smoothed finite element method)을 도입한 응력 기반 구배 탄성론(Gradient elasticity)의 2차원 경계치 문제에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 구배 탄성론은 기존 탄성론에서는 표현할 수 없는 미소규모의 크기 의존적인 기계적 거동을 설명하기 위해 제안되었다. 구배 탄성체론에서 고차 미분 방정식을 두 개의 2차 미분 방정식으로 분할하는 Ru-Aifantis 이론을 사용하기 때문에 평활화 유한요소법에 적용이 가능하게 된다. 본 연구에서 경계치 문제를 해결하기 위해 평활화 유한 요소 프레임워크에 스태거드 방식(Staggered scheme)을 사용하여 국부 변위장과 비국부 응력장을 평활화 영역 및 요소에서 각각 계산하였다. 구배 탄성에서 중요한 변수인 내부 길이 척도의 영향을 측정하기 위해 일련의 수치 예제를 수행하였다. 수치 해석 결과는 제안한 기법이 내부 길이 척도에 따라 균열 선단과 전위 선에 나타나는 응력 집중을 완화할 수 있음을 보여준다.

Purpose: A response to conservative treatment is usually obtained in cases of ischiogluteal bursitis. However, the time required to achieve relief of symptoms can vary from days to weeks, and there is a high recurrence rate, thus invasive treatment in addition to conservative treatment can occasionally be effective. Therefore, the aim of this study was to examine surgical excision in cases of refractory ischiogluteal bursitis and to evaluate patients' progression and outcome. Materials and Methods: A review of 21 patients who underwent surgical excision for treatment of ischiogluteal bursitis between February 2009 and July 2020 was conducted. Of these patients, seven patients were male, and 14 patients were female. Injection of steroid and local anesthetic into the ischial bursa was administered at outpatient clinics in all patients, who and they were refractory to conservative treatment, including aspiration and prescription drugs. Therefore, surgery was considered necessary. Excisions were performed by two orthopedic specialists using a direct vertical incision on the ischial area. A review of each patient was performed after excision, and quantification of the outcomes recorded using clinical scoring systems was performed. Results: The results of radiologic evaluation showed that the mean lesion size was 6.2 cm×4.5 cm×3.6 cm. The average disease course after excision was 21.6 days (range, 15-48 days). Measurement of clinical scores, including the visual analog scale and Harris hip scores, was performed during periodic visits, with scores of 0.7 (range, 0-2) and 98.1 (range, 96-100) at one postoperative month, respectively. Conclusion: Surgical excision, with an expectation of favorable results, could be considered for treatment of ischiogluteal bursitis that is refractory to therapeutic injections, aspirations, and medical prescriptions, particularly in moderate-to-severe cases.

This article provides comprehensive guidance on the maintenance, cleaning, regeneration, and storage of silica-based HPLC (High-Performance Liquid Chromatography) columns. The general considerations emphasize the importance of using in-line filters and guard cartridges to protect columns from blockage and irreversible sample adsorption. While these measures help, contamination by strongly adsorbed sample components can still occur over time, leading to an increase in back pressure, loss of efficiency, and other issues. To maximize column lifetime, especially with UHPLC (Ultra-High Performance Liquid Chromatography) columns, it is advisable to use ultra-pure solvents, freshly prepared aqueous mobile phases, and to filter all samples, standards, and mobile phases. Additionally, an in-line filter system and sample clean-up on dirty samples are recommended. However, in cases of irreversible compound adsorption or column voiding, regeneration may not be possible. The document also provides specific recommendations for column cleaning procedures, including the flushing procedures for various types of columns such as reversed phase, unbonded silica, bonded normal phase, anion exchange, cation exchange, and size exclusion columns for proteins. The flushing procedures involve using specific solvents in a series to clean and regenerate the columns. It is emphasized that the flow rate during flushing should not exceed the specified limit for the particular column, and the last solvent used should be compatible with the mobile phase. Furthermore, the article outlines the storage conditions for silica based HPLC columns, highlighting the impact of storage conditions on the column's lifetime. It is recommended to flush all buffers, salts, and ion-pairing reagents from the column before storage. The storage solvent should ideally match the one used in the initial column test chromatogram provided by the manufacturer, and column end plugs should be fitted to prevent solvent evaporation and drying out of the packing bed.

Determining lateral earth pressure coefficient (EPC) K is a classic problem in geotechnical engineering. It is a key parameter for estimating the stresses in backfilled openings. For backfilled openings with rigid and immobile walls, some suggested using the Jaky's at-rest earth pressure coefficient K₀ while other suggested taking the Rankine's active earth pressure coefficient K_a. A single value was proposed for the entire backfilled opening. To better understand the distributions of stresses and K in a backfilled opening, a series of laboratory tests have been conducted. The horizontal and vertical normal stresses at the center and near the wall of the opening were measured. The values of K at the center and near the wall were then calculated with the measured horizontal and vertical normal stresses. The results show that the values of K are close to K_a at the center and close to K₀ near the wall. Furthermore, the experimental results show that the horizontal stress is almost the same at the center and near the wall, indicating a uniform distribution from the center to the wall. It can be estimated by analytical solutions using either K_a or K₀. The vertical stress is higher near the center than near the wall. Its analytical estimation can only be done by using K_a at the center and K₀ near the wall. Finally, the test results were used to calibrate a numerical model of FLAC2D, which was then used to analyze the influence of column size on the stresses and K in the backfilled opening.
