  • In recent days, although many kinds of beam modifiers are developing and using for clinical purposes in accordance with progressing medical engineering, physical wedges are preferred to use as a beam modifier by a lot of institutions until now because of cost, complexities of dosimetry and mechanical uncertainties. According to progressing technology, available field size of wedge is more enlarger than that of old model LINAC. Because field size dependence of wedged fields increases in new model LINAC, we was trying to know that how much different PSFs are in enlarged wedged fields compared with open fields. In small or middle size of fields($4{\times}4{\sim}15{\times}15cm$), there are only a few percents of PSF variation between open and wedged fields. But there are $2{\sim}8\%\;variations\;in\;relatively\;large\;fields(20{\times}20{\sim}30{\times}40cm)$.

  • Lightning electromagnetic fields are important issues for the evaluation of lightning induced overvoltage on power lines and for setting the appropriate protection level for power networks. Such electromagnetic fields are strongly dependent on lightning return stroke currents at different heights along the lightning channel. On the other hand, the ground reflection factor due to the difference between the return stroke channel impedance and the equivalent ground impedance at channel base can have an effect on the shape of the return stroke currents by entering additional reflected currents into the channel. In this paper, the effect of the ground reflection factor on the return stroke currents at different heights along a channel and the electromagnetic fields associated with the lightning channel at close distances are considered. Moreover, the behavior of the electromagnetic fields versus the reflection factor changes and the radial distance changes are considered and the results are discussed accordingly. The results illustrate that the reflection factor has a direct relationship with the values of the electromagnetic fields while this is usually ignored in earlier studies.

  • This study will show the determinants of research productivity by fields in science and engineering. However, we present the differences between fields by personal attributes, research resources, and research productivities. The data includes 1,383 researchers who participated in the BK21 PLUS program during 2010-2012. The fields are physics, chemistry, biology, mechanics, electricity and electronics and chemical engineering. As for research productivity, 3 indices are used such as the number of papers publicized, patents and combination of papers and patents. As for explanation factors, two kinds of variables are used. The personal factors include sex, age, academic rank, location of affiliation, and country of PhD acquisition, and the resource factors are the number of graduate students, 3 types of research funds such as government fund, industrial fund and overseas fund. This study is unique in several aspects; Dealing with 3 productivity indices, and using massive official data, 6 different fields, and determinants of research productivity. The results are as follows; 1) there is a big difference in determinants by fields. 2) No variables affect the research productivity of all the fields at the same time. 3) In science, the number of determinants are quite low than engineering. 4) The ratio between papers and patents are different by fields. 5) The correlations between paper and patent by fields are different; no relationship in the field of physics and chemistry and positive relationship in the other 4 fields.

  • A coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a new global health problem. The Korean government is pursuing to gain its future growth engines and promoting short-term economic stimulation by investing in research and development (R&D) to improve national technological capabilities that can respond to the spread of the global epidemic. It is required to need knowledge information to establish the direction of future national planning thru understanding the status quo of R&D investment in terms of research fields. Four corona-related R&D fields were drawn on the basis of analyzing major nations' R&D funding data (USA, EU etc.) and two differentiated R&D fields were added through comparative analysis with domestic R&D projects. Domestic and foreign research organization-the research title-the scale of the research funding-the project period were presented in terms of the suggested 6(7 details) R&D research fields. Meanwhile R&D projects that have featured in the convergence of interdisciplinary were provided. This study proved the excellence of coronavirus detection and on-site diagnostic capabilities that are currently globally highlighted by deriving differentiated research fields from the domestic competitive advantage fields related to corona viruses and also suggested intensive investment research fields.

  • Citation matching (CM) is a method for clustering citation records that refer to the same paper. Normally, CM is preceded by citation field segmentation (CFS) which divides a citation record into its fields such as author(s), a title, a title of publication, year, etc. Although many studies have attacked CFS and CM, the relationship between CFS and CM was not sufficiently explored. Among many aspects of the effect of CFS on CM, this study concentrates on what citation fields should identify for CM. As its first attempt, we compared CM performances over different sets of citation fields manually segmented, and confirmed that the use of more citation fields help CM to cluster citation records better.

  • Interdisciplinary research collaboration(IRC), reflected in 3,184 response of 1997 survey in Korea, is very common. IRC within same disciplines is 60%, and IRC with other disciplines is 40%. IRC with Humanities and Social Science is 11%. Policy expectations for interdisciplinary collaboration are very different depending on disciplines. The difference between disciplines and fields such as Natural Science, Life Science and Engineering is quite noticeable. Policies for interdisciplinary research collaboration are recommended to reflect the different tendencies between disciplines, at least between fields.

  • A well-designed computer network technology produces benefits on several fields within the organization, between the organizations(suborganizations) or among different organizations(suborganizations). Network technology streamlines business processes, decision process. Graphs are useful data structures capable of efficiently representing a variety of networks in the various fields. Metagraph is a like graph theoretic construct introduced recently by Basu and Blanning in which there is set to set mapping in place of node to node as in a conventional graph structure. Metagraph is thus a new type of data structure occupying its popularity among the computer scientists very fast. Every graph is special case of Metagraph. In this paper the authors introduce the notion of Meta-Networking as a new network technological representation, which is having all the capabilities of crisp network as well as few additional capabilities. It is expected that the notion of meta-networking will have huge applications in due course. This paper will play the role of introducing this new concept to the network technologists and scientists.
