We fabricated the Au/Ni template for YBCO coated conductors and evaluated texture formation and the microstructural evolution. The cube textured Ni substrate was fabricated by rolling and recrystallization annealing, and subsequently Au layer formed on the substrate by electroless-plating method. The texture was evaluated by pole-figure with x-ray goniometer with orientation distribution function (ODF) analysis. The surface roughness and grain boundary morphology of template were characterized by atomic force microscopy (AFM) We observed that Au layer deposited epitaxially on Ni substrate and formed a strong cube texture when plating time was optimized. The full-width at half-maximum (FWHM) was $8.4^{\circ}$ for out-of-plane and $9.98^{\circ}$ for in-plane texture for plating time of 30 min. Microstructural observation showed that the Au layer was homogeneous and dense without formation of crack/microcrack. In addition, we observed that root-mean-square (RMS) and depth of grain boundary were 14.6 nm and 160 $\AA$ for the Au layer, respectively, while those were 27.0 nm and 800 $\AA$ for the Ni substrate, indicating that the electoless-plated Au layer had relatively smooth surface and effectively mollified grain groove.

We developed predictive growth models for Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus cereus on various food matrices consisting primarily of ready-to-eat (RTE) foods. A cocktail of three S. aureus strains, producing enterotoxins A, C, and D, or a B. cereus strain, were inoculated on sliced bread, cooked rice, boiled Chinese noodles, boiled bean sprouts, tofu, baked fish, smoked chicken, and baked hamburger patties at an initial concentration of 3 log CFU/g and stored at 8, 10, 13, 17, 24, and $30^{\circ}C$. Growth kinetic parameters were determined by the Gompertz equation. The square-root and Davey models were used to determine specific growth rate and lag time values, respectively, as a function of temperature. Model performance was evaluated based on bias and accuracy factors. S. aureus and B. cereus growth were most delayed on sliced bread. Overall, S. aureus growth was significantly (p<0.05) more rapid on animal protein foods than carbohydrate-based foods and vegetable protein foods. The fastest growth of S. aureus was observed on smoked chicken. B. cereus growth was not observed at 8 and $10^{\circ}C$. B. cereus growth was significantly (p<0.05) more rapid on vegetable protein foods than on carbohydrate-based foods. The secondary models developed in this study showed suitable performance for predicting the growth of S. aureus and B. cereus on various food matrices consisting of RTE foods.

Background: Ketamine has an indirect sympathetic stimulation effect. We investigated heart rate variability (HRV) as a marker of cardiac autonomic function after a target controlled infusion (TCI) of ketamine with a plasma concentration of 30 or 60 ng/ml. Methods: In 20 adult volunteers, the mean of the R wave to the adjacent R wave interval (RRI), the range of RRI, the root mean square successive difference of intervals (RMSSD), the total power, the low frequency (LF, 0.04-0.15 Hz) power, the high frequency (HF, 0.15-0.4 Hz) power, the normal unit HF (nuHF), the normal unit LF (nuLF), the LF/HF ratio and the SD1 and the SD2 in the Poincare plot were measured before and after a TCI of ketamine. We observed for any psychedelic symptoms or sedation. Results: There were no differences in the mean and range of the RRI, RMSSD, total power, LF power, HF power, nuHF, nuLF, LF/HF ratio, SD1 and SD2 between before and after ketamine administration. The OAA/S score was higher and there were more psychedelic symptoms with a 60 ng/ml plasma concentration than with a 30 ng/ml plasma concentration. Conclusions: This study did not show any effect of a low plasma concentration of ketamine on the autonomic nervous system.

Discrimination of Parkinson's disease (PD) from Essential tremor (ET) is often misdiagnosed in clinical practice. Since tremor is time-varying signal, and dominant and harmonic frequencies are shown in tremor only with moderate or severe symptom, there are some limitations to use frequency related features. Moreover, patients with PD or ET can suffer from both resting tremor and postural tremor. In this study, 28 patients with PD and 17 patients with ET were enrolled. Tremor was measured with accelerations on the more affected hand during resting and postural conditions. The ratio of root mean square (RMS) of resting tremor to RMS of postural tremor, the mean coefficients of autocorrelation function (ACF), and the mean of differences of two adjacent coefficients of ACF at resting and postural were calculated and compared between PD and ET. The performance showed 98% accuracy with support vector machine and leave-one-out cross validation. In addition, the method accurately differentiated the patients with tremor-dominant PD from patients with ET, with 100% accuracy. Therefore, the developed algorithm can assist clinicians in diagnosing and categorizing patients with tremor, especially, patients with mild symptom or the early stage of a disease, for proper treatment.

본 논문에서는 백색광 간섭현상 (white light interferometry)을 위한 신호처리 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안하는 알고리즘으로 간섭기의 광경로 절대길이 (absolute optical path length)를 정확하게 측정할 수 있다. 그리고 제안하는 알고리즘은 간섭 무늬 (fringe scan)의 상호 상관관계 함수 (cross-correlation function)와 가설 검증을 사용한다. 가설 검증은 간섭 무늬의 상호 상관관계 함수가 대칭이 되는 봉우리를 영차 간섭 봉우리 (zero order fringe peak) 후보자로 선정함으로써 영차 간섭 봉우리를 오판할 확률을 줄인다. 산탄잡음(shot noise)이 제안된 알고리즘의 성능에 미치는 영향을 컴퓨터 모의 실험을 통하여 조사하였다. 모의 실험결과와 보외법 (extrapolation)을 사용하여 신호대산탄잡음비 (signal-to-shot noise ratio)가 31 dB 보다 클 때의 알고리즘의 성능을 예측하였다. 간섭 봉우리의 세 가지 매개변수 변화 (신호대산탄잡음비, 간섭 스캔 샘플링율 광원의 가간섭성 길이)에 따른 영차 간섭 봉우리 추정 오차를 계산하였다. 모의 실험 결과를 통하여 제안한 알고리즘이 영차 간섭 무늬 봉우리를 정확하게 판별할 수 있음을 보여주었다. 제안하는 신호처리 알고리즘은 소프트웨어적인 기법으로서 경제적이고 속도가 빠르며 간단한 알고리즘이다.

미시적 시뮬레이션 모형은 컴퓨터 성능이 향상되고 정교한 모형이 개발되면서 광역적인 범위까지 적용분야가 점차 확대되고 있다. 현장 교통상황을 정확하게 묘사하기 위해서는 시뮬레이션 모형의 정확한 정산이 매우 중요하다. 국내에서는 거시적 모형에 대한 정산연구는 많이 진행된 반면에 미시적 모형에 대한 정산연구는 매우 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 유전자알고리즘 이용하여 미시적 시뮬레이션 모형의 파라미터를 자동으로 최적화하는 자동정산 체계를 제시하였다. 내부순환로 지점검지기에서 수집되는 관측교통량과 미시적 시뮬레이션모형(VISSIM)의 교통량 간의 제곱오차(RMSE)를 성능지표로 하고, 최적화 목적함수는 제곱오차를 최소화 하는 것으로 설정하였다. 내부순환로에 적용한 결과, 기본 파라미터에 비해 자동정산체계의 RMSE가 60.4%($19.3{\longrightarrow}7.6$)나 감소하여 매우 효과적인 것으로 나타났다.

Measurements of closely related sets of classical and truss dimensions were analyzed to discriminate species of scorpaenidae including the dark banded rockfish, Sebastes inermis, the black rockfish, S. schlegeli, and gobioninae including the striped shiner, Pungtungia herzi, and the slender shiner, Pseudopungtungia tenuicorpa. The measurements of the dimensions were arc sin square root transformed, and compared as a function of the standard length of each species for statistical analysis. For values of the classical dimensions of the rockfish, 6 were greater for the dark banded rockfish than for the black rockfish, 1 value was smaller for the former, and for 2 values there was no statistically significant difference (P > 0.05). For values of the classical dimensions of the shiners, 9 values were greater for the striped shiner than for the slender shiner, 2 values were smaller for the former, and for 1 value there was no statistically significant difference (P > 0.01). For values of the truss dimensions of the rockfish, 6 were greater for the dark banded rockfish than for the black rockfish, 1 was smaller for the former, and for 4 values there was no statistically significant difference (P > 0.05). For values of the truss dimensions of the shiners, 13 values were greater for the striped shiner than for the slender shiner, 3 values were smaller for the former, and for 6 values there was no statistically significant difference (P > 0.01). The dimension sets used in this study may be useful as taxonomic indicators for discriminating among fish species in Korea.

In this study, we used I-V spectroscopy, photoconductivity (PC) yield and internal photoemission (IPE) yield using IPE spectroscopy to characterize the Schottky barrier heights (SBH) at insulator-semiconductor interfaces of Pt/$HfO_2$/p-type Si metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) capacitors. The leakage current characteristics of the MIS capacitor were analyzed according to the J-V and C-V curves. The leakage current behavior of the capacitors, which depends on the applied electric field, can be described using the Poole-Frenkel (P-F) emission, trap assisted tunneling (TAT), and direct tunneling (DT) models. The leakage current transport mechanism is controlled by the trap level energy depth of $HfO_2$. In order to further study the SBH and the electronic tunneling mechanism, the internal photoemission (IPE) yield was measured and analyzed. We obtained the SBH values of the Pt/$HfO_2$/p-type Si for use in Fowler plots in the square and cubic root IPE yield spectra curves. At the Pt/$HfO_2$/p-type Si interface, the SBH difference, which depends on the electrical potential, is related to (1) the work function (WF) difference and between the Pt and p-type Si and (2) the sub-gap defect state features (density and energy) in the given dielectric.

The effects of Reynolds number on the non-nulling calibration of a typical cone-type five-hole probe have been investigated for the representative Reynolds numbers in turbomachinery. The pitch and yaw angles are changed from - 35 degrees to 35 degrees with an angle interval of 5 degrees at six probe Reynolds numbers in range between $6.60{\times}10^3\;and\;3.17{\times}10^4$. The result shows that not only each calibration coefficient itself but also its Reynolds number dependency is affected significantly by the pitch and yaw angles. The Reynolds-number effects on the pitch- and yaw-angle coefficients are noticeable when the absolute values of the pitch and yaw angles are smaller than 20 degrees. The static-pressure coefficient is sensitive to the Reynolds number nearly all over the pitch- and yaw-angle range. The Reynolds-number effect on the total-pressure coefficient is found remarkable when the absolute values of the pitch and yaw angles are larger than 20 degrees. Through a typical non-nulling reduction procedure, actual reduced values of the pitch and yaw angles, static and total pressures, and velocity magnitude at each Reynolds number are obtained by employing the calibration coefficients at the highest Reynolds number ($Re=3.17{\times}10^4$) as input reference calibration data. As a result, it is found that each reduced value has its own unique trend depending on the pitch and yaw angles. Its general tendency is related closely to the variation of the corresponding calibration coefficient with the Reynolds number. Among the reduced values, the reduced total pressure suffers the most considerable deviation from the measured one and its dependency upon the pitch and yaw angles is most noticeable. In this study, the root-mean-square data as well as the upper and lower bounds of the reduced values are reported as a function of the Reynolds number. These data would be very useful in the estimation of the Reynolds-number effects on the non-nulling calibration.

우리나라뿐만 아니라 전 지구적으로 호우발생 빈도의 증가, 태풍이나 허리케인 세기의 강화 등에 따라 대규모 자연재해의 발생횟수와 피해액은 지속적으로 증가하는 추세이다. 태풍, 홍수, 호우, 강풍, 풍랑, 해일, 조수, 대설, 가뭄, 지진, 황사 등과 같은 자연재해는 발생지점과 규모를 예측하기 어려우며, 전조현상이 명확하게 나타나지 않아 대응에 많은 어려움이 존재한다. 그러나 자연재해의 피해규모를 예측할 수 있다면, 조기대응을 통해 피해를 저감할 수 있을 것이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 국민안전처에서 발간하는 재해연보('91년~'15년)를 기반으로 서해연안지역의 풍랑피해함수를 개발하였다. 풍랑피해함수는 지역별, 시설별로 구분하여 개발하였으며, NRMSE는 1.94%~26.07%로 분석되었다. 개발된 식을 통해 피해규모를 예측하고, 그에 대한 적절한 대응이 이루어진다면, 피해를 저감할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
