The effects of ethylene glycol, DMSO and glycerol as cryoprotectants and the effect of concentrations(0, 0.25, 0.5 and 1.0M) of sucrose in the diluent on the viability of the aggregated morulae frozen rapidly in liquid nitrogen$(LN_2)$ vapour were examined. The morulae were produced by aggregation of ICR and CBA mice embryos at 8-cell stage. Before freezing the embryos were equilibrated in 1.5M cryoprotectants+0.25M sucrose in oae-step or in 3.0M cryoprotectants+0.25M sucrose in two-steps. The embryos were pipetted into the freezing medium fraction of 0.25ml plastic straws. The straws were frozeu by directly transfer into $LN_2$ vapour(about lcm above $LN_2$) for 2 minutes, and then plunged into $LN_2$. After thawing the cryoprotectants were diluted with 0, 0.25, 0.5 or 1.0M sucrose solution. The post-thawed in vitro viability of the aggregated embryos was significantly dependent on the type and concentration of cryoprotectants in the freezing medium and also on the concentration of sucrose in the diluent. When the aggregated embryos were equilibrated in 1.5M cryoprotectants +0.25M sucrose in one-step and diluted with 0.5M sucrose after thawing, the survival rate of the embryo5 was significantly(p<0.05) higher in DMSO(62.5%) or ethylene glycol(52.2%) than in glycerol(33.3 %). In the case that the concentration of the cryoprotectants was raised to 3.0M in two-steps, thc higher survival rate of the embryos was obtained in ethylene glycol or glycerol than in DMSO followed by diluting them with 0.5 or 1.0M sucrose after thawing(p<0.01).

The superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) is an electric power device that limits the fault current immediately in a power grid. Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO) has been developing a 154 kV, 2 kA SFCL since 2011 to protect power grids from increasing fault current and improve the stability and quality of electric power. This SFCL adopts 2G YBCO wires and operates at 71 K and 5 bars. In this paper, a cooling system for the 154 kV SFCL and its cooling test results are reported. This cooling system uses a Stirling-type cooler to make sub-cooled liquid nitrogen ($LN_2$), which cools the superconductor modules of the SFCL. The $LN_2$ is circulated between the cooler and the cryostat that contains superconductor modules. The $LN_2$ also plays the role of a high voltage insulator between the modules and the cryostat, so the pressure was maintained at 5 bars for high insulation performance. After installation in a test site, the cooling characteristics of the system were tested. In this operation test, some important data were measured such as temperature distribution in $LN_2$, pressure change, performance of the heat exchanger, and cooling capacity of the total system. Consequently, the results indicate that the cooling system operates well as designed.

An advanced superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) using $high-T_c$ superconducting (HTS) wire has been developed. The SFCL has a non-inductively wound magnet for reducing loss in normal state. Two types of non-inductively wound magnets, the solenoid type and the pancake type, were designed and manufactured by using Bi-2223 wire in this research. Short-circuit tests of the magnets were performed in sub-cooled $LN_2$ cooling system of 65 K. The magnets are thermally more stable and have a higher critical current in 65 K sub-cooled $LN_2$ cooling system than in 77 K saturated one. Because the resistivity of matrix at 65 K is lower than the resistivity at 77 K, the magnets generate a small resistance to reduce the fault current when the quench occurs. The magnets could limit the fault current to low current level with such a small resistance. The current limiting characteristic of the magnets was analyzed from the test result. The solenoid type was wound in parallel to make it non-inductive. The pancake type was also connected in parallel to be compared with the solenoid type in the same condition. The solenoid type was found to have a good thermal stability compared with the pancake type. It also had as large resistance as the pancake type to limit the fault current in sub-cooled $LN_2$ cooling system.

A different route to the synthesis of $Eu^{3+}$ - activated matrices such as $YAlO_{3}$ and $GdAlO_{3}$ and luminiscent properties of these compounds, were studied. The new route (Combustion method) consist of the redox reactions between the respective metal nitrates and urea in a preheated furnace at ${500^{\circ}C}$. The Phosphor thus obtained were then heated at ${1000^{\circ}C}$ for 2-3 hours to get better luminiscent properties. The incorporation of $Eu^{3+}$ activator in these phosphors were checked by luminiscence investigations. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) studies were carried out to understand surface morphological features and the particle size. X-ray energy dispersive analysis (EDAX) was also performed for the qualitative analysis of the phosphors.

Lesch-Nyhan 증후근(LNS)은 hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyle transferase(HGPRT) 효소를 암호화 하는 X 염색체가 불완전해서 일어나는 유전적인 추제외로계(또는 기저핵)의 드문 병변이다. 출생시 LNS 유아는 정상적인 운동발달이 관찰되어진다. LNS에게서 현저하게 진단적인 특징으로 보여지는 운동심리적 행동인 self-mutilating 행위는 4살 이후에나 나타난다. LNS 아이들은 오히려 초기에 Rett's 증후근, 뇌성마비, 자폐, 다운증후근과 유사한 운동행위를 보인다. 그래서 LNS 아이들은 앞에 기술한 신경학적 장애로 오진을 받을 수가 있다. 오진으로 인해 초기에 적절한 치료를 받지 못한다면 LNS는 결과적으로 합병증(신장부전)과 self-mutilating 행위로 인하여 치명적일 수가 있다. 그러므로, 이 연구의 목적은 LNS 평가 동안 더 나은 진단을 하도록 하기 위하여 LNS와 관련된 기능부전에 대한 지식을 임상가들에게 제공하고자 함이었다. 연구 대상자는 10살인 2명의 쌍둥이 남아이었으며 실험은 뻗기 과제 수행(reaching task)시 움직임 특성을 보기 위하여 운동형상학적과 비디오 분석을 사용하였다. 기술통계로 분석 결과 움직임 시간과 단위가 증가됨을 보였고 사지의 분절적 움직임이 협응되지 않음을 보였다. ballistic과 jerky 움직임 양상은 dysmetric과 비긴장성 운동 행위에서 우세하였다. LNS은 추체로계 운동 장애 (과근긴장도나 저긴장도) 와 추체외로계의 운동 장애(dystonia와 choreoathetosis)의 혼합된 형태를 보였다. 결론으로 이 연구는 운동발달 장애를 가진 아이들을 치료하고자 할 때 임상가들한테 LNS 아이들의 움직임 장애의 다른 진단적 특징을 알아야 한다는 것을 제시하고자 한다.

In order to reasonably predict damage extents of naval ships under in-compartment explosion (INCEX) loads, two conditions should be fulfilled in terms of accurate INCEX load generation and fracture estimation. This paper seeks to predict damage extents of various naval ships by applying the CONWEP model to generate INCEX loads, combined with the Hosford-Coulomb (HC) and localized necking (LN) fracture model. This study selected a naval ship with a 2,000-ton displacement, using associated specifications collected from references. The CONWEP model that is embedded in a commercial finite element analysis software ABAQUS/Explicit was used for INCEX load generation. The combined HC-LN model was used to simulate fracture initiation and propagation. The permanent failures with some structural fractures occurred where at the locations closest to the explosion source points in case of the near field explosions, while, some significant fractures were observed in way of the interfaces between bulkheads and curtain plates under far field explosion. A large thickness difference would lead to those interface failures. It is expected that the findings of this study enhances the vulnerability design of naval ships, enabling more accurate predictions of damage extents under INCEX loads.

제주지역의 온주밀감 과수원에서 귤응애(Panonychus citri (McGregor)) 밀도에 대해 잎당 응애수를 2년에 걸쳐 조사하였다. 이항표본조사법은 잎당 귤응애의 밀도와(m)와 귤응애가 T마리보다 많이 존재하는 잎의 비율($P_{T}$)과의 관례를 기본으로 하며, T는 경험적 이항분포모형 [$ln(m)-{\alpha}+{\beta}ln(-ln(1-P_{T}))$]에서의 tally threshold로서 본 연구에서는 1, 3, 5, 7을 사용하였다. 표본단위 수의 증가는 T와 관계없이 이항분포 모형의 정확도에 영향이 거의 없었던 반면에 T는 값이 증가함에 따라 표본수를 증가시켜도 정확도가 낮아졌다. 이항분포모형의 정확도는 T=1일 때 가장 높았으며, 최적의 tally threshold인 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 이항표본조사의 유효성을 조사하기 위하여 독립된 표본을 추출, 조사하였으며, 그 결과 온주밀감원에서 귤응애 밀도추정에는 T=1인 경우가 적합한 것으로 판단되었다. 또한, 귤응애 밀도를 분류하기 위한 이항표본조사과정을 개발하여 action threshold가 귤응애 밀도가 잎당 2마리일 때의 이항표본조사 프로그램을 작성하였다.

The current work investigates the effects of nucleation heat treatments, on the microstructure and mechanical properties of a novel silicate glass in $Li_2O-BaO-SiO_2$ system with 1 mol% $P_2O_5$ as nucleating agent. As-cast glass was exposed to nucleation heat treatments at $490-550^{\circ}C$ for 1-3 h. The microstructural examination was performed by SEM/EDS. The highest Vickers microhardness was determined to be 650 Hv for the sample heat treated at $550^{\circ}C$ for 1 h. The increase in the nucleation time also affected Vickers microhardness and the highest one was determined to be 600 Hv after nucleation for 3 h. The fracture toughness, $K_{IC}$ reached $2.51MPa.m^{1/2}$ after nucleation at $550^{\circ}C$ for 1 h. The nucleation temperatures had a more pronounced effect on the fracture toughnesses in comparison to nucleation times. The indentation toughness data was used to determine Weibull parameters from Ln ln [1/(1-P)]-$lnK_{IC}$ plots. Weibull modulus, m of the samples nucleated at 500, 510, 530, $550^{\circ}C$ for 1h. and $540^{\circ}C$ for 2 h. were determined similarly to be 3.8, 3.5, 4.7 and 3.9, respectively. The rest of the samples indicated higher Weibull moduli, which may be attributed to the formations of microcracks due to the mismatch in between newly formed crystals and remaining glassy matrix.

연구배경과 목적: 지첨용적맥파는 광학기술을 이용하여 손가락 끝에서 혈액용적의 변화를 측정하여 맥파를 검출하는 기술로서, 지첨용적맥파에 대한 시간영역 파형분석을 통해 혈관의 노화정도를 파악할 수 있음은 이미 잘 알려진 사실이다. 이에 본 연구자는 시간영역 파형분석을 통해 혈관노화지표를 얻을 수 있다면, 주파수영역분석법을 통해서도 혈관노화지표를 얻을 수 있을 것으로 가정하였다. 본 연구에서는 주파수영역에서 혈관노화지표를 찾기 위해 건강한 성인들을 대상으로 지첨용적맥파를 측정하고 주파수영역에서 분석하여 고조파가 혈관노화 지표로서 활용될 수 있는가 여부를 결정하고자 한다. 연구방법: 건강인 390명(남자 174명과 여자 216명)을 대상으로 안정 후 앙와위에서 30초 동안 지첨용적맥파를 검출하였다. 검출한 맥파신호에서 기저선이 비교적 안정된 5-6개의 맥파주기를 선택하여 시간영역 파형분석을 통해 얻어지는 혈관노화지표인 승각시간, 경화지수, 반사지수, 가속도맥파를 구하였다. 주파수영역분석을 위해서는 빠른 퓨리에변환(FFT)를 실시하여 고조파 성분을 추출하였다. 특정점 검출을 위해서는 AcqKnowledge software의 peak detector 기능을 이용하였다. 연구결과: 표준화된 고조파 파워는 연령증가에 따라 유의하게 감소하였다; nPWR2 (r=-0.286, p<0.0001), nPWR3 (r=-0.482, p<0.0001), nPWR4 (r=-0.564, p<0.0001), nPWRS (r=-0.467, p<0.0001) 및 nPWR6 (r=-0.263, p<0.0001). 표준화된 고조파 파워의 logarithmic scale에서 연령증가에 따라 보다 강한 선형적인 감소가 나타났다; Ln(nPWR2) (r=-0.281, p<0.0001), Ln(nPWR3) (r=-0.492, P<0.0001), Ln(nPWR4) (r=-0.621, P<0.0001), Ln(nPWRS) (r=-0.487, P<0.0001) 및 Ln(nPWR6) (r=-0.273, P<0.0001). 승각시간, 반사지수, 경화지수를 독립변수로 한 중회귀분석에서 Ln(nPWR2) (R-squared=0.451), Ln(nPWR3) (R-squared=0.471) 및 Ln(nPWR4) (R-squared=0.432)는 비교적 잘 설명되었으나, Ln(nPWRS) (R-squared=0.232) 및 Ln(nPWR6) (R-squared=0.183)는 비교적 잘 설명되지 않았다. 결론: 건강인의 지첨용적맥파에서 기준 주파수로 표준화한 고조파 파워는 연령증가에 따라 감소였으며, 주파수영역분석이 가지는 특성을 고려해 볼 때 표준화된 고조파 파워는 기존의 시간영역 파형분석을 통해 얻어지는 혈관노화지표에 비해 잡음에 의한 오차가 보다 적을 것으로 기대된다. 따라서 우리는 표준화된 고조파 파워가 간편하고 용이하게 혈관노화를 반영하는 새로운 지표로서 활용될 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

Lead-free (1-x)$(Na_{0.5}K_{0.5})NbO_3-xLiNbO_3$, i.e., NKN-LNx (x=0.0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4 mol) was prepared using the conventional solid state reaction method. The effects of LN mixing on the ferroelectric properties of NKN-LNx ceramics were studied using a dielectric constant and P-E (Polarization-electric field) measurements. Ferroelectricity was observed in the composition for x approximately varying between 0.0 and 0.4. Minimum remanent polarization $2P_r=5C/cm^2$ was achieved in the composition for x = 0.2. The ferroelectric phase transition temperature $T_C$ increased with increasing LN content. The ferroelectric phase transition of NKN-LNx ($x{\geq}0.1$) is a second-order phase transition, and that of NKN-LNx ($x{\leq}0.2$) is a first-order phase transition. These results indicate that the ferroelectric phase transition temperature of NKN-LNx change from that of second-order to weak first-order phase transition according to the LN content.
