  • This study has developed an Enhanced Remote-Sensing (ERS) scale to improve the accuracy and efficiency of using remote-sensing images of residential building to predict their damage conditions. The new scale, by incorporating multiple damage states observable on remote-sensing imagery, substantially reduces measurement errors and increases the amount of information retained. A ground damage survey was conducted six days after the Joplin EF 5 tornado in 2011. A total of 1,400 one- and two-family residences (FR12) were selected and their damage states were evaluated based on Degree of Damage (DOD) in the Enhanced Fujita (EF) scale. A subsequent remote-sensing survey was performed to rate damages with the ERS scale using high-resolution aerial imagery. Results from Ordinary Least Square regression indicate that ERS-derived damage states could reliably predict the ground level damage with 94% of variance in DOD explained by ERS. The superior performance is mainly because ERS extracts more information. The regression model developed can be used for future rapid assessment of tornado damages. In addition, this study provides strong empirical evidence for the effectiveness of the ERS scale and remote-sensing technology for assessment of damages from tornadoes and other wind events.

  • 전방십자인대재건술의목표는안정된관절과 pivot shift 현상을 제거하고, 반월상 연골을 보호하고, 관절운동범위를 유지하고, 술후슬개-대퇴관절의문제를최소화하도록재활하여수상전의운동수준으로복귀시키는것이다. 그래서전방십자인대 재건술은급성기에수술은피하고, 수술 전에재활치료를통하여관절운동범위와 대퇴사두고근의근력을얻은다음, 환자가육체적으로나정신적으로준비가될때까지수술을연기한다. 수술후재활치료는슬관절의완전신전과closed kinetic chain 운동을강조하며, 수술후정기적인방문으로재활치료를지도해주고장기추시해야하는것이중요하다.

  • One of the most difficult parameters to measure in the sea is current speed and direction. Recently, efforts are being made to estimate the ocean current vectors by utilizing sequential satellite imageries. In this study, we attempted to estimated sea surface current vector (sscv) by using satellite ocean color imageries of SeaWifs around the Korean Peninsula. This ocean color image data has 1-day sampling interval and spatial resolution of 1x1 km. Maximum cross-correlation method is employed which is aimed to detect similar patterns between sequential images. The estimated current vectors are compared to the surface geostrophic current vectors obtained from altimeter of sea level height data. In utilizing the color imagery data, some limitations and drawbacks exist so that in warm water region where phytoplankton concentration is relatively lower than in cold water region, estimation of sscv is poor and unreliable. On the other hand, two current vector fields agree reasonably well in the Korean South Sea region where high concentration of chlorophyll-a and weak tide is observed. In the future, with ocean color images of shorter sampling interval by COMS satellite, the algorithm and methodology developed in the study would be useful in providing the information for the ocean current around Korean Peninsula.

  • G. Binnig and H. Rohrer introduced the Scanning Tunneling Microscope (STM) in 1982 and developed it into a powerful and not to be missed physical tool. Scanning tunneling Microscopy is a real space surface imaging method with the atomic or subatomic resolution in all three dimensions. The tip is scanned over the surface by two piezo translators mounted parallel (X-piezo and Y-piezo) to the surface and perpendicular to each other. The voltage applied to the third piezo (Z-piezo) translator mounted perpendicular to the surface to maintain the tunneling current through the gap at a constant level reflects then the topography of the surface. The feed back control loop for the constant gap current is designed using the automatic control technique. In the designing process of the feed back loop, the identification of the gap dynamics is very complex and has difficulty. In this research, using some suitable test signals, the system dynamics of the gap including the Z-piezo are investigated. Especially, in this paper, a system model is proposed for the gap and Z-piezo series system. Indicial response is used to find out the model. The driving voltage of the Z-piezo and the tunneling current are considered as input and output signals respectively.

  • Gloss is very important optical property influencing the perceived quality of the paper surface as well as the surface after printing. Although the average gloss level of paper products or printed images is important to meet end use specifications, the occurrence of gloss mottle, or non-uniformity of gloss, is often of greater concern for meeting quality requirements, especially for the high gloss paper. Gloss variation originates from the irregularities of paper surface, especially surface roughness of paper. Roughness of paper can be divided into micro-roughness (under $1\mu m$ scale in variation) and macro-roughness (over $1\mu m$ scale in variation) depending on the scale of the irregularities. A clearer understanding of the gloss variation of paper can be achieved by separating the contributions of these two scales of roughness, and characterizing them independently. In order to do this, a novel gloss measuring method was introduced. This can detect local gloss with very high resolution. The effect of macro-roughness on gloss variation, which was identified by the measurable surface topography, was separated from the total gloss variation by using this method. The effect of micro-roughness was then estimated indirectly. The local gloss variations of various paper samples were then evaluated to demonstrate the utility of this approach.

  • The embedded atom method (EAM) of Daw and Baskes as a semiempirical method, has been successfully applied to the fcc or nearly filled d-band transition metals due to its computational feasibility and its methodological simplicity. Then Baskes modified the EAM (MEAM) to include directional bonding and applied it to metals, semiconductors, and diatomic gases, all of which have different types of bondings. Here, we present a detailed study of the energetics of adsorption on the fcc(111) surfaces and binary system within the framework of MEAM. In adsorption on fcc(111) surfaces, there are two energetically favored sites, so called, fcc site and hcp site, which may trigger stacking fault in the growth of films and might switch growth mode between 3D growth and layer by layer growth. We scrutinized the role of the hcp sites, which would offer dynamic growth pathways although the dynamics are not yet clear within the limited experimental resolution. Featuring these transient motions in the atomic level should contribute to the understanding the growth mechanisms on fcc(111) surface. And we also applied MEAM for initial stage energetics at the Cr coverage of sub- monolayer on W(110). We hope that recently observed extraordinary growth behavior at the Cr coverage of 0.7 monolayer, self- organized nano-scale lines, can be resolved in this MEAM binary system calculation.

  • 본 논문은 해안매립 이전과 이후에 촬영한 한 쌍의 항공사진을 이용하여 매립지에 대한 해안선 변화 분석을 제시한다. 해석도화기와 수치도화기의 두 가지 방법으로 조위, 즉 약최고고조면으로 정의된 해안선을 도화하였다. 과거의 해안선을 수치지적도에 중첩하여 포락지와 해안빈지의 면적을 계산하였고, 과거와 현재의 해안선 사이의 면적을 측정함으로써 해안선 변화량을 추정하였다. 면적에 근거한 해안선 변화 비교 결과, 두 사진측량 방법은 대체로 일치함을 보여주었다. 그러나 수치사진측량에 있어서 복잡한 지형을 보이는 하구지역의 해안선 도화는 1200dpi보다 높은 해상력의 수치영상이 요구된다.

  • The Adsorption structures of phenylalanine on Ge(100) surface have been investigated as a function of coverage using high-resolution photoemission spectroscopy (HRPES) and density functional (DFT) calculation. To converge these experimental and theoretical conclusion, we systematically performed HRCLPES measurements and DFT calculation for various coverage in the adsorption structures of phenylalanine molecules on the Ge(100) surface. In this study, we found two different adsorption structure as a function of coverage in phenylalanine on Ge(100), monitoring three core level spectra (Ge 3d, C 1s, N 1s, and O 1s) using HRPES Through analysis of the binding energies, we confirmed that O-H dissociated and N dative-bonded structure emerges at low coverage (0.10 ML), which is the same to the result of glycine and alanine on Ge(100) system, whereas O-H dissociation structure also appears at higher coverage. Moreover, we observed the shape of phenyl group being included in phenylalanine is changed from flat to tilting structure at final state using DFT calculation. Through the spectral analysis for phenylalanine, we will demonstrate variation of coverage dependent structural change for phenylalanine on Ge(100) surface using experimental (HRPES) and theoretical studies (DFT calculation).

  • The Pseudomonas fluorescens KCTC 1767, a selected and identified as potential candidate for stereo-specific resolution of rac-ketoprofen ethyl ester, was systematically investigated in order to induce the high level expression and detailed characterization of the expressing enzyme esterase. We cloned the esterase gene from chromosomal DNA of Pseudomonas fluorescens KCTC 1767 by PCR with two synthetic primers that desinged for simple purification. The recombinant esterase from Pseudomonas fluorescens KCTC 1767 exibited a high conversion rate and enantioselectivity to the (S)-ketoprofen ethyl ester as expected. The enzyme was easily purified to homogeniety by using a metal chelating affinity chromatography as a protein with poly histidine taq, and thus obtained 0.6 mg of protein from a 100 mL culture broth in a single step. The purified enzyme was steadily stable at the pH range from 7.0 to 10. The activity was also retained to be about 70% after the preincubation at $40^{\circ}C$ but over $50^{\circ}C$ lost the activity completely. The molecular mass of the esterase was estimated to be about 43 kDa on SDS-PAGE, and an identical result was also shown in gel filteration chromatography. The specific activity was calculated 27 mM/mg-protein/min by using the rac-ketoprofen ethly ester as a substrate.
