Domestic PB products have emerged and been distributed by hypermarkets, department stores, convenience stores, as well as TV home shopping channels and Internet shopping malls. However, the fierce competition among the distributors due to the emergence of the PB products have caused the diversion of consumers' recognition to be reduced weight and volume as well as had the effect of misleading consumers about the prices. The width of the PB product price's up and down is larger than the width of the NB product. Thus, following consumers' purchases of PB products, there has been an increasing number of consumer complaints. In order to research consumers' recognition of PB products and to examine how consumers' recognition and information search comparative to PB products affect consumers' dissatisfaction, an online survey targeted consumers with experience purchasing PB products. This study was conducted and analyzed using SPSS 19 Statistics. The findings can be summarized as follows. Even though more consumers who frequently purchased and used the PB products, the more they compared with information search comparative to the NB product and then purchased the PB product. We investigated the result that the relevant variables of consumer complaints have some relative influence in the purchasing of PB products. There will be a higher probability o the group having high recognition about price and safety not making consumer complaints in comparison with the probability of other consumers making complaints after the purchase of a PB product. Therefore, based on the results of this study, companies need to build a system so that they can figure out consumers' needs in order to prevent the occurrence of consumer complaints related to the products of distribution companies' brands. By means of the system, it is also necessary for companies to collect consumer complaints and analyze them by category. Then they eventually should develop a consumer-centered management system which may contribute to quality improvement, product development and the reduction of consumer complaints.

Although the harsh space environment imposes many severe challenges to space pioneers, space exploration is a realistic and profitable goal for long-term humanity survival. One of the viable and promising options to overcome the harsh environment of space is nuclear propulsion. Particularly, the Nuclear Thermal Rocket (NTR) is a leading candidate for nearterm human missions to Mars and beyond due to its relatively high thrust and efficiency. Traditional NTR designs use typically high power reactors with fast or epithermal neutron spectrums to simplify core design and to maximize thrust. In parallel there are a series of new NTR designs with lower thrust and higher efficiency, designed to enhance mission versatility and safety through the use of redundant engines (when used in a clustered engine arrangement) for future commercialization. This paper proposes a new NTR design of the second design philosophy, Korea Advanced NUclear Thermal Engine Rocket (KANUTER), for future space applications. The KANUTER consists of an Extremely High Temperature Gas cooled Reactor (EHTGR) utilizing hydrogen propellant, a propulsion system, and an optional electricity generation system to provide propulsion as well as electricity generation. The innovatively small engine has the characteristics of high efficiency, being compact and lightweight, and bimodal capability. The notable characteristics result from the moderated EHTGR design, uniquely utilizing the integrated fuel element with an ultra heat-resistant carbide fuel, an efficient metal hydride moderator, protectively cooling channels and an individual pressure tube in an all-in-one package. The EHTGR can be bimodally operated in a propulsion mode of $100MW_{th}$ and an electricity generation mode of $100MW_{th}$, equipped with a dynamic energy conversion system. To investigate the design features of the new reactor and to estimate referential engine performance, a preliminary design study in terms of neutronics and thermohydraulics was carried out. The result indicates that the innovative design has great potential for high propellant efficiency and thrust-to-weight of engine ratio, compared with the existing NTR designs. However, the build-up of fission products in fuel has a significant impact on the bimodal operation of the moderated reactor such as xenon-induced dead time. This issue can be overcome by building in excess reactivity and control margin for the reactor design.

서해안 민어포 조간대 지역에서 해수면 변동과 연관된 갯벌의 퇴적구조를 파악하기 위해 고해상 천부 육상 탄성파탐사를 실시하였다. 음원으로는 5 kg 무게의 망치를 사용하였으며, 48채널의 100 Hz 지오폰을 이용하여 서로 수직한 두 측선에 대하여 1 m 간격으로 총 795 m shot의 자료를 획득하였다. 갯벌 표면이 물에 의해 포화된 상태를 이루고 있어 강성률이 매우 낮아 ground roll의 발생이 억제되었으며 기록되는 반사신호의 속도가 1500 m/s 이상이므로 일반적인 육상 천부탄성파 탐사시에 기록되는 저속도의 잡음과 분리하기가 쉽다. 그 결과 자료의 신호대 잡음비가 상당히 높고 해상도가 우수한 탄성파 단면을 얻을 수 있었다. 중합단면을 해석해 보면 조사지역의 음향기반암 상부의 퇴적층은 5 개의 층서로 나뉘어 진다. 해수면 상승에 의한 점진적 퇴적상이 전체 조사 구간에 걸쳐 우세하게 나타나고 있지만, 퇴적층 내에서 해수면 하강에 따른 침식도 관찰된다.

한반도 상공의 중간 자외선 대기광을 측정하기 위해 3단형 과학로켓(KSR-III)에 탑재될 대기광도계(Airglow Photometer, AGP)가 제작되었다. 대기광도계 비행 모형(FM)은 4-channel로 이루어져 100km~300km 구간의 중간 자외선 영역의 OI 2972${\AA}$, $N_2$ VK(0,6) 2780${\AA}$, $N_2$ 2PG 3150${\AA}$ 대기광과 배경으로 3070${\AA}$을 지평선 방향으로 측정하게 된다. 대기광도계는 광도계 본체, 차폐경(Baffle), 전자제어부, 전원공급기로 구성되어 있다. 광도계 본체는 협대역 간섭 필터를 통해 선택된 파장의 대기광을 직경 2.5cm 렌즈로 초점면에 설치된 실틈(slit)을 통해 자외선 감지용 광전증배관으로 진입시키는 구조로 되어있다. 비행중 영점 측정을 위해 초점면 실틈 뒤편의 회전판에 영점광원을 설치하였다. 차폐경은 저충대기로부터 산란되는 태양광이 광도계로 진입하지 못하도록 성능을 최적화하여 설계 제작되었다. 대기광도계 비행모형의 지상 테스트로서 각광도계의 성능 테스트 및 감응도, 영점 측정 등을 실시하였다. 대기광도개가 미약한 빛을 감응하도록 제작되었기 때문에 국내에서 신뢰도를 갖고 절대 감응도를 결정할 수 없었다. 그러나 대기광도계 각 channel 간 상대 감응도 측정값은 안정되게 측정되었기 때문에, 추후 로켓 비행시 측정한 자료를 신뢰성있게 분석할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Effects of a voltage dependent calcium channel antagonist, nifedipine, on the responses of blood pressure, and secretion of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and aldosterone to angiotensin II (Ang II) were compared in male Wistar and spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). A low, control or high sodium diet (2, 10 or 25 mmol Na/100 g diet) was fed for 6 weeks from the age of 6 weeks. On the morning of the experiment catheters were inserted under ether anesthesia in the femoral artery for pressure recording and blood sampling, and in the femoral vein for drug infusion. Ang II was infused at a rate of 250 ng/kg/min for 20 min. Nifedipine mixed with Ang II was infused at a rate of $16{\mu}g/kg/min$ for 20 min. Arterial blood samples were collected before and after infusion of Ang II with or without nifedipine. The control plasma level of aldosterone was inversely related to the amount of salt intake, whereas the plasma ANP level was not different between the salt groups. SHR showed a higher basal plasma ANP but a lower aldosterone concentration than Wistar rats. Infusion of Ang II produced a significant increase in blood pressure and plasma levels of aldosterone and ANP: The % increase was not significantly different either between the salt groups or between SHR and Wistar rats. SHR showed a greater pressor response to Ang II but a remarkably smaller decrease in heart rate after Ang II infusion than Wistar rats, With increasing sodium intake, the effect of Ang II on aldosterone secretion was decreased, whereas that on ANP secretion or blood pressure was not changed. Nifedipine decreased the responses of blood pressure and heart rate to Ang II in all groups. Nifedipine caused almost a complete inhibition of Ang II induced ANP secretion, but only a partial inhibition of Ang II induced aldosterone secretion or vasoconstriction. These results indicate that calcium dependent processes were involved in Ang II induced vasoconstriction, and secretions of aldosterone and ANP. However, the calcium dependent process far ANP secretion was considerably different from that for aldosterone secretion or vasoconstriction evoked by ang II. The ang II induced increase in ANP secretion appeared to be caused primarily by activating voltage-dependent calcium channels, whereas Ang II induced aldosterone secretion and vasoconstriction was not.

There are many report suggesting that influx and intracellular calcium concentration $([Ca^{2+}]_i)$ are related to cell signalling in various cells. However, it has not been reported that calcium channel activation is affected by the substances involved in signal transduction pathways in the mouse eggs. In this study, the effects of isoprenaline (ISP) and cyclic AMP on calcium influx through calcium channels were investigated to show their relationship with the signal transduction process in unfertilized mouse eggs. Using whole cell voltage clamp techniques, calcium currents, elicited by the depolarizing pulses of 300 ms duration (from -50 mV to 50 mV in 10 mV increments) from a holding potential of -80 mV, were recorded. The current-voltage (I-V) relation of calcium currents was shown to be bell-shaped; the current began to activate at -50 mV and reached its maximum $(-1.33{\pm}0.16\;nA:\;mean{\pm}S.E.,\;n=7)$ at -10 mV, then decayed at around 50 mV. Calcium currents were fully activated within $7\;ms{\sim}20\;ms$ and completely inactivated 200 ms after onset of the step pulse. ISP within the concentration ranges of $10^{-8}\;M{\sim}10^{-4}\;M$ dose-dependently increased the amplitude calcium current. The permeable cyclic AMP analogue,8-bromocyclic AMP, also increased its maximal amplitude by 46ft at $10^{-5}\;M$, while protein kinase inhibitor (PKI), which is known to inhibit 0.02 phosphorylating units of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) per microgram decreased calcium currents. Currents recorded in the presence of PKI were resistant to increase by the application of $10^{-5}\;M$. Also, PKI inhibited the calcium current increase elicited by ISP treatment. These results suggest that $\beta-adrenergic$ regulation of the calcium channel is mediated by the cAMP-dependent protein kinase. This signal transduction pathway might play a role in regulating $[Ca^{2+}]_i$, level due to the increase of calcium influx in mouse eggs.

제주연안선 부근에 밀집된 육상양식장 배출구 주변 4개 해역(애월리, 행원리, 표선리, 일과리)에서 수질환경의 시공간적 변화에 영향을 미치는 요인을 파악하기 위해 2010년 2월부터 2011년 12월까지 격월로 총 12회 조사하였다. 주성분 분석 결과 조사해역에서 연중 영양염의 분포는 염분과의 관련성 없이 배출구로부터 공급되는 물질에 의해 영양염의 농도가 조절되어, 연안에서 외해역으로 갈수록 농도구배가 감소하는 특징을 나타냈다. 특히 용존무기질소의 경우는 배출구와 인접한 해역에서는 부영양상태로 인에 비해 질소가 과잉되고 있었다. 유기물의 분포는 담수유입량이 증가하는 고수온기에 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 식물플랑크톤의 생물량 변화는 애월 및 행원해역은 담수유입과 관련된 기상요인(기온 및 강우), 표선 및 일과는 영양염의 인위적 공급요인(양식장 배출수)에 의한 영향을 주로 받는 것으로 나타났다. 특히, 배출구로부터 직선거리 약 300 m 및 수심 10 m이내 해역의 표 저층에서는 고영양염 농도 분포가 지속되고 있어, 부영양화 과정에서 발생하는 문제를 직 간접적으로 받을 수 있는 가능성을 나타냈다. 육상양식장의 운영 시 취수지점이 배출수의 영향을 받는 지점에 위치할 경우 사육수질의 문제가 발생할 수 있다.

Subchannel code is one of the effective simulation tools for thermal-hydraulic analysis in nuclear reactor core. In order to reduce the computational cost and improve the calculation efficiency, empirical correlation of turbulent mixing coefficient is employed to calculate the lateral mixing velocity between adjacent subchannels. However, correlations utilized currently are often fitted from data achieved in central channel of fuel assembly, which would simply neglect the wall effects. In this paper, the CFD approach based on spectral element method is employed to predict turbulent mixing phenomena through gaps in 3 × 3 bare tight lattice rod bundle and investigate the flow pulsation through gaps in different positions. Re = 5000,10000,20500 and P/D = 1.03 and 1.06 have been covered in the simulation cases. With a well verified mesh, lateral velocities at gap center between corner channel and wall channel (W-Co), wall channel and wall channel (W-W), wall channel and center channel (W-C) as well as center channel and center channel (C-C) are collected and compared with each other. The obvious turbulent mixing distributions are presented in the different channels of rod bundle. The peak frequency values at W-Co channel could have about 40%-50% reduction comparing with the C-C channel value and the turbulent mixing coefficient β could decrease around 25%. corrections for β should be performed in subchannel code at wall channel and corner channel for a reasonable prediction result. A preliminary analysis on fluctuation at channel gap has also performed. Eddy cascade should be considered carefully in detailed analysis for fluctuating in rod bundle.
