폴리카보네이트 표면에 spin-coating한 유/무기 복합 코팅막을 자외선 경화와 가열(12$0^{\circ}C$, 12시간)처리함으로써 약 4~13 $\mu\textrm{m}$ 두께의 투명한 내마모성 유/무기 복합코팅막을 제조하였다. 코팅용액은 무기상과 유기상을 각각 0 : 100, 20 : 80, 30 : 70, 50 : 50, 80 : 20 중량비로 혼합한 다음 광개시제, 증감제 및 계면활성제를 첨가하여 제조하였다. 무기상은 TEOS와 실란커플링제 MPTMS을 1 : 2 혹은 2 : 1몰비로 흔합하여 졸ㆍ겔 반응으로 제조하였으며, 유기상은 2관능형 urethane acrylate 올리고머, 다관능형 TMPTA와 HDDA를 4:3:3 wt% 비율로 흔합하여 제조하였다. 유/무기복합상의 화학적 변화는 FT-IR, $^{29}$ Si-NMR로 분석하였으며, 열분석과 코팅층 표면 형상은 TGA/DSC, SEM, AFM으로 분석하였다. 무기물의 함량과 실란커플링제의 첨가량이 증가 할수록 분자수준의 흔화도가 개선되고 표면 평활도와 내마모성도 향상되었다. 즉 약 10 $\AA$ 이하의 표면 거칠기와 약 15$0^{\circ}C$의 T$_{g}$를 나타내는 시료는 500회 마모시험 전후 단지 16%의 광투과도 감소만을 보인 반면에, 무코팅 폴리카보네이트를 46%의 광투과율 감소를 나타내었다..

뇌 자기공명영상(Magnetic Resornance Imaging; MRI)에서 검사 중 발생되는 소음을 줄이기 위한 기법으로 경사 파형을 변경한 Quiet $T_2$-weighted Turbo Spin-Echo(이하 Q-$T_2$)와 일반적으로 사용되는 $T_2$-weighted Turbo Spin-Echo(이하 $T_2$) 영상의 소음수준 및 영상의 질을 비교하여 그 유용성을 알아보고자 하였다. 3.0T MR 기기로 뇌 MR 검사를 받은 60명(남자 29명, 여자 31명, 평균 연령 60.1세)의 환자를 대상으로 하였다. Q-$T_2$와 $T_2$ 각각의 영상에서 소음 및 심박동수를 측정하였다. 정량적 분석은 Q-$T_2$와 $T_2$의 SNR, CNR, SIR 값을 측정한 뒤 독립표본 T검정을 이용하여 통계적 분석을 하였다. 정성적 분석은 Q-$T_2$와 $T_2$의 전체적인 영상의 질에 대하여 육안으로 평가하였다. 평가는 5점 척도로서 우수(excellent) 5점, 양호(good) 4점, 보통(fair) 3점, 불량(poor) 2점, 평가불가(unacceptable) 1점으로 평가하였다. Q-$T_2$와 $T_2$ 검사 중 평균소음과 peak소음은 Q-$T_2$가 기존 $T_2$에 비해 각각 $15dB_A$, $10dB_A$ 감소하였다. 또한 각각의 검사 중 120초 동안 심박동수의 평균값은 Q-$T_2$에서 더 낮은 값으로 나타났지만 통계적인 유의성은 없었다. 정량적 분석의 결과 CNR과 SIR은 유의한 차이가 없었으며, SNR은 Q-$T_2$가 더 낮은 평균값을 보임으로서 유의한 차이를 보였다(p<0.05). 정성적 분석은 59개의 Q-$T_2$와 $T_2$ 영상의 질이 동일하게 우수(excellent) 5점으로 평가되었으며, 1개의 영상에서 모션 아티팩트로 인해 양호(good) 4점으로 평가되었다. Q-$T_2$는 기존의 $T_2$와 같이 검사시간 및 진단의 정확도는 동일하지만 소음을 효과적으로 감소시킬 수 있으며, 이로인하여 환자 편의를 향상시킬 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

목 적 : 영상진단영역에서 이용되고 있는 3T(T, tesla) MR의 스핀에코(SE, spin echo) T1강조영상(T1-Weighted image)기법에서 숙임각(FA, flip angle)의 변화에 따른 영상의 질을 나타내는 신호대 잡음비(SNR, signal to noise ratio), 대조도 잡음비(CNR, contrast to noise ratio)를 평가한 후 특이흡수율(SAR, specific absorption rate)을 줄이면서 CNR를 향상시킬 수 있는 적정의 숙임각을 알아보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 고식적 스핀에코에서 통상적으로 사용하는 90$^\circ$ RF pulse 대신 50$^\circ$ RF pulse에서 130$^\circ$까지 10$^\circ$씩 증가시키면서 대뇌 T1강조영상을 획득하였다. 이 영상들에서 백질(WM, white matter), 회백질(GM, gray matter)과 배경(background)에서 각각 신호강도를 측정하여 SNR를 구하였고, 기존의 T1 이완곡선 R1 = 1- exp ($\frac{-TR}{T1}$)으로, 즉 Ernst angle cos $\theta$ = exp ($\frac{-TR}{T1}$)과의 관계성으로 T1강조영상에서 WM과 GM의 SNR과 CNR의 정규성 검정과 비모수 검정인 Kruskal-wallis 분석으로 적정의 숙임각을 알아보고자 하였다. 결 과 : WM와 GM의 신호강도와 배경잡음 신호강도를 이용하여 SNR를 구한 결과 WM의 SNR는 숙임각 50$^\circ$보다 130$^\circ$에서 1.6배 정도 증가하였고, GM의 SNR는 약 1.9배 정도 높게 나타났다. 두 조직의 SNR은 T1 이완곡선과 동일한 양상을 보여주고 있다. R1 = 1- exp ($\frac{-TR}{T1}$)으로 분석한 SNR의 신호증가가 둔화되는 기점이 WM은 120$^\circ$의 숙임각에서, GM은 110$^\circ$ 이후로 나타나 두 조직에서 다르게 나타나는 것을 알 수 있었다. WM과 GM의 SNR는 130$^\circ$의 숙임각에서 높았지만 CNR에 있어서는 80$^\circ$에서 최고 높게 나타났으며, 80$^\circ$ 전후의 숙임각에서는 감소하였다. 결론 : 3.0T MR의 SE T1강조영상 기법에서 숙임각의 증가에 따라 SNR는 증가하였지만 CNR는 이전까지의 임상에서 사용하는 숙임각이 90$^\circ$ 보다 적은 80$^\circ$에서 CNR이 최고로 나타나 통상적으로 사용하는 숙임각보다 10$^\circ$ 낮은 RF pulse duration time 사용함으로써 3T에서 문제로 제기된 SAR도 줄일 수 있었다. 앞으로 3.0T MR의 SE T1강조영상 기법에서 적정 숙임각을 사용함으로서 CNR을 높일 수 있을 것으로 기대되어진다.

As of early 2015, more than 12,000 Near-Earth Objects (NEOs) have been catalogued by the Minor Planet Center, however their observational properties such as broadband colors and rotational periods are known only for a small fraction of the population. Thanks to time series observations with the KMTNet, orbits, optical sizes (and albedo), spin states and three dimensional shapes of asteroids and comets including NEOs will be systematically investigated and archived for the first time. Based on SDSS and BVRI colors, their approximate surface mineralogy will also be characterized. This so-called DEEP-South (Deep Ecliptic Patrol of the Southern Sky) project will provide a prompt solution to the demand from the scientific community to bridge the gaps in global sky coverage with a coordinated use of the network of ground-based telescopes in the southern hemisphere. We will soon finish implementing dedicated software subsystem consisted of automated observation scheduler and data pipeline for the sake of increased discovery rate, rapid follow-up, timely phase coverage, and efficient data analysis. We will give a brief introduction to test runs conducted at CTIO with the first KMTNet telescope in February and March 2015 and experimental data processing. Preliminary scientific results will also be presented.

Plasma medicine is an upcoming research area that has attracted the scientists to explore more deeply the utility of plasma. So, apart from the treating biomaterials and tissues with plasma, we have studied the effect of plasma with different feeding gases on modification of biomolecules. Additionally, we have checked the action of nanosecond pulsed plasma on the biomolecules. We have checked the plasma action on proteins ((Hemoglobin (Hb) Myoglobin (Mb) and lysoenzyme), calf thymus DNA and amino acids. The structural changes or structural modification of proteins and DNA have been studied using circular dichroism (CD), dynamic light scattering (DLS), gel electrophoresis, protein oxidation test, UV-vis spectroscopy and 1D NMR, while Liquid Chromatograph/Capillary Electrophoresis-Mass Spectrometer(LC/CE-MS) based qualitative bio-analysis have been used to study the modification of amino acids. We have also shown the effect of NaCl and ionic liquid on the formation of OH radicals using electron spin resonance and fluorescence techinques.

The purpose of this study would evaluate if having clinical effects on diffusion image with quantitative analysis through ADC values of brain's normal tissue and lesions before and after contrast injections using a 3.0T. From November in 2007 until December in 2008, a total of 32 patient was performed on 3.0T(Signa Excite, GE Medical System, USA) with the normal or lesions in the patient who requests diffusion weighted image with 8channel head coil. The pulse sequence was used with spin echo EPI(TR: 10000msec, TE: 72.2 msec, Matrix: 128*128, FOV: 240 mm, NEX: 1, diffusion direction: 3, b-value: 1000). Measurement results of ADC values on lesions, CSF, white matter, gray matter, lesions after contrast injection were measured less 75% than before contrast injection, infarction: 100%, CSF: 78%(high), white matter: 71.4%(low), gray matter: 50%(high, low). The results of paired t-test on the deference of ADC values which statically is significant in three(lesions, CSF, white matter)regions except for white matter(p<0.05). Quantitative analysis of lesions, CSF, white matter, gray matter have difference on all regions. ADC values were low in lesions and white matter, normal CSF after contrast injection commonly is high than before contrast injection, ADC values which white matter were high and low (50:50) after contrast injection. 3.0T diffusion weighted image clinically supposed that performing DWI examination after contrast injection was not desirable because of having effects on brain tissue.

Health effects associated with metal working fluid (MWF) exposures include dermatitis, respiratory disease, hypersensitive pneumonitis, and asthma. Frequently, occupational exposures to MWFs are controlled by ventilating an enclosure with an air cleaning unit that includes a fan preceded by various kinds of filtration. There are several kinds of air cleaning units used in machining centers. But the associated troubles have hindered from efficiently using these devices. The main problem is the relatively short period of filter replacement. The reason is that the air cleaning units usually do not have the de-oiling systems, thus leading the earlier clogging of filters and reducing the flow rate of hood. Thus, the first stage of study was conducted to overcome this problem by developing the new oil mist collector equipped with the easy de-oiling system. The principle of de-oiling is that the centrifugal force generated by spinning the drum covered by filter fabric separates oils from the filter fabric. It would be very similar to the spin-dry laundry. By adopting this de-oiling technique, the problems associated with the conventional oil mist collectors could be solved. Several tests/analyses were performed to make the lab-scale oil mist collector. The collection efficiencies and the de-oiling efficiencies of commercially available filter fabrics were tested. Subsequently, the endurance test were conducted by observing SEM photos of filter fabrics and measuring tensile strength/expansion coefficient after spinning the filter drum for 20 minutes at the different rotation speeds. By doing these experiments, the most appropriate filter fabric and rotation speed/duration were selected. Finally, the new oil mist collector was designed. In the near future, this device must be tested in the real machining center.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of additives (antioxidants for free radicals reduction) in cigarette filter treated with various antioxidants (three types of proanthocyanidins and ascorbic acid) and various concentrations of ascorbic acid and loaded with activated carbon on the delivery of free radicals of mainstream smoke (MS) by ESR. Also, we analyzed Hoffmann's analytes andscavenger activity according to the storage time and in vitro cytotoxicity. The analysis of spin number of vapor and particulate phase free radicals in MS are decreased to $14{\sim}24\;%$ and $16{\sim}40\;%$, respectively. As aresult of antioxidant potential for inactivity of vapor and particulate phase free radicals, natural antioxidants were more effective than ascorbic acid. Based on the result of the analysis of Hoffmann's analytes for various antioxidantstreated cigarette filters during the smoking, cigarette filter treated with ascorbic acid showed the lower amount of the deliveries of hydroquinone, isoprene and quinoline in MS than those treated with the other antioxidants. In the significant t-test on the difference of the cytotoxicity among the various antioxidants treated-cigarette filters, there are no significant differences at the 95 % confidence level. Those results indicated that the antioxidants were useful for reducing free radicals in MS because of the fast reaction between antioxidant and free radicals.

The current test methods are insufficient to evaluate and ensure the safety and reliability of vehicle system for all possible dynamic situation including the worst case such as rollover, spin-out and so on. Although the known NHTSA Sine with dwell steering maneuvers are applied for the vehicle performance assessment, they aren't enough to estimate other possible worst case scenarios. Therefore, it is crucial for us to verify the various worst cases including the existing severe steering maneuvers. This paper includes useful worst case based upon the existing worst case scenarios mentioned above and worst case evaluation for vehicle dynamic controller in simulation basis and UCC HILS. The only human steering angle is selected as a design parameter here and optimized to maximize the index function to be expressed in terms of both yaw rate and side slip angle. The obtained scenarios were enough to generate the worst case to meet NHTSA worst case definition. It has been concluded that the new procedure in this paper is adequate to create other feasible worst case scenarios for a vehicle dynamic control system.

The current test methods are insufficient to evaluate and ensure the safety and reliability of vehicle system for all possible dynamic situation including the worst case such as rollover, spin-out and so on. Although the known NHTSA J-turn and Fish-hook steering maneuvers are applied for the vehicle performance assessment, they aren't enough to estimate other possible worst case scenarios. Therefore, it is crucial for us to verify the various worst cases including the existing severe steering maneuvers. This paper includes the procedure to search for other useful worst case based upon the existing worst case scenarios mentioned above and its application in simulation basis. The only human steering angle is selected as a design parameter here and optimized to maximize the index function to be expressed in terms of either roll angle or yaw rate. The obtained scenarios were enough to generate the worst case to meet NHTSA worst case definition (ex.2-inch wheel lift). Additionally, as an application, the worst case steering maneuver is acquired for the vehicle to operate with a simple ESP system. It has been concluded that the new procedure in this paper is adequate to create other feasible worst case scenarios for a vehicle system both with an intelligent safety control system and without it.
