Laser induced breakdown spectroscopy(LIBS) is an simple analysis method for directly quantifying many kinds of soil micro-elements on site using a small size of laser without pre-treatment at any property of materials(solid, liquid and gas). The purpose of this study were to find an optimum condition of the LIBS measurement including wavelengths for quantifying soil elements, to relate spectral properties to the concentration of soil elements using LIBS as a simultaneous un-breakdown quantitative analysis technology, which can be applied for the safety assessment of agricultural products and precision agriculture, and to compare the results with a standardized chemical analysis method. Soil samples classified as fine-silty, mixed, thermic Typic Hapludalf(Memphis series) from grassland and uplands in Tennessee, USA were collected, crushed, and prepared for further analysis or LIBS measurement. The samples were measured using LIBS ranged from 200 to 600 nm(0.03 nm interval) with a Nd:YAG laser at 532 nm, with a beam energy of 25 mJ per pulse, a pulse width of 5 ns, and a repetition rate of 10 Hz. The optimum wavelength(${\lambda}nm$) of LIBS for estimating soil and plant elements were 308.2 nm for Al, 428.3 nm for Ca, 247.8 nm for T-C, 438.3 nm for Fe, 766.5 nm for K, 85.2 nm for Mg, 330.2 nm for Na, 213.6 nm for P, 180.7 nm for S, 288.2 nm for Si, and 351.9 nm for Ti, respectively. Coefficients of determination($r^2$) of calibration curve using standard reference soil samples for each element from LIBS measurement were ranged from 0.863 to 0.977. In comparison with ICP-AES(Inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy) measurement, measurement error in terms of relative standard error were calculated. Silicon dioxide(SiO2) concentration estimated from two methods showed good agreement with -3.5% of relative standard error. The relative standard errors for the other elements were high. It implies that the prediction accuracy is low which might be caused by matrix effect such as particle size and constituent of soils. It is necessary to enhance the measurement and prediction accuracy of LIBS by improving pretreatment process, standard reference soil samples, and measurement method for a reliable quantification method.

본 연구는 원자력 발전소에 있는 방화벽의 케이블 관통부위에 설치된 CPFS(Cable Penetration Fire Stop)시스템 안에서 일어나는 동적열전달 현상을 3 차원으로 나타낼 수 있는 시험시뮬레이터에 사용될 수학적 모델과 수치계산 알고리즘의 개발에 관한 것이다. CPFS 내에서 일어나는 열전도 현상을 나타내는 지배방정식은 주어진 조건들 하에서 포물선형 편미분방정식(Parabolic PDE)으로 나타난다. 문제를 단순화하기 위해 열의 흐름을 두 성분으로 나누었다 즉, 케이블과 평행한 선을 따라서 일어나는 열전도와 벽면과 평행한 평면 위에서 일어나는 열전도로 나누었다. 먼저 선을 따라 일어나는 동적 열전도 현상을 나타내는 PDE를 연속과완화(SOR: Successive Over-Relaxation)를 적용하여 유한한 불연속점들에 대한 연립 상미분방정식(ODE)으로 전환했고, 그 연립방정식은 ODE Solver 를 이용하여 풀 수 있었다. 둘째로, 각 불연속 점에 위치한 평면 위에서 일어나는 열전도를 계산하기 위해서, 유한요소의 합을 근사식으로 이용하여 PDE를 ODE로 전환해서 계산하는 유한요소법(Finite Element Method)이 이용된다. 여기서 시간과 공간의 함수 T(x, y, z, t)인 온도는 각 선의 점들과 각 평면의 요소들에 대해서 일정한 시간간격으로 초기온도와 경계온도를 업데이트하여 계산을 반복한다. 이러한 일련의 계산결과를 바탕으로 CPFS 시스템 내에서의 온도분포의 동적인 변화를 해석한다. 결론적으로 관통하는 케이블이 CPFS 시스템의 온도분포에 매우 중요한 역할을 한다는 것을 알 수 있다. 시뮬레이션 결과는 CPFS 내의 온도분포를 쉽게 이해할 수 있도록 3 차원 그래픽으로 나타냈으며, 상용소프트웨어 FEMLAB 으로 계산한 결과와 비교해서 개발된 모델과 계산 알고리즘의 정당성을 보였다. 맞이하고 있음을 볼 수 있다. 국내광업이 21C 급변하는 산업환경에 적응하여 생존하기 위해서는 각종 첨단산업에서 요구하는 소량 다품종의 원료광물을 적기에 공급 할 수 있는 전문화된 기술력을 하루속히 확보해야 하며, 이를 위해 고품위의 원료광물 확보를 위한 탐사 및 개발을 적극 추진하고 가공기술의 선진화를 위해 선진국과의 기술제휴 등 자원산업 글로벌화 정책이 절실히 요구되고 있음을 알 수 있다. 또한 삶의 질을 향상시키려는 현대인의 가치관에 부합하기 위해서는 각종 소비제품의 원료를 제공하는 광업의 본래 목적 이외에도 자연환경 훼손을 최소화하며 개발 할 수밖에 없는 구조적인 어려움에 직면할 수밖에 없다. 이처럼 국내광업이 안고 있는 여러 가지 난제들을 극복하기 위해서는 업계와 정부가 합심하여 국내광업 육성의 중요성을 재인식하고 새로운 마음가짐으로 관련 정책을 수립 일관성 있게 추진해 나가야 할 것으로 보인다.의 연구 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 브랜드 이미지와 서비스 품질과의 관계에서 브랜드이미지는 서비스 품질의 선행변수가 될 수 있음을 증명하였으며 4개 요인의 이미지 중 사풍이미지를 제외한 영업 이미지, 제품 이미지, 마케팅 이미지가 서비스 품질에 영향을 미치고 있음을 알 수 있다. 둘째, 지각된 서비스 품질과 가격 수용성과의 관계에서, 서비스 품질은 최소 가격에 신뢰서비스 요인에서 정의 영향을 미치고 있으나 부가서비스, 환경서비스에서는 역의 영향을 미침을 알수 있고, 최대 가격에 있어서는 욕구서비스 요인은 정의 영향을 미치지만 부가서비스의 경우에는 역의 영향을 미치고 있음을 알 수 있다. 셋째, 서비스품질과 재 방문 의도와의 관계에 있어서 서비스품질은 재 방문 의도에 영향을 미침을 알 수 있다. 따라서 브랜드 이미지는 서비스품질의 선행변수가 될 수 있으며, 서비스품질은 가격 수용성과 재방문 의도에 영향을 미치고 있음을 알 수

Lithium metal is the most promising anode for next-generation lithium-ion batteries due to its lowest reduction potential (-3.04 V vs. SHE) and high specific capacity (3860 mAh/g). However, the dendritic formation under high charging current density remains one of main technical barriers to be used for commercial rechargeable batteries. To address these issues, tremendous research to suppress lithium dendrite formation have been conducted through new electrolyte formulation, robust protection layer, shape-controlled lithium metal, separator modification, etc. However, Li/Li symmetric cell test is always a starting or essential step to demonstrate better lithium dendrite formation behavior with lower overpotential and longer cycle life without careful analysis. Thus, this review summarizes overpotential behaviors of Li/Li symmetric cells along with theoretical explanations like initial peaking or later arcing. Also, we categorize various overpotential data depending on research approaches and discuss them based on peaking and arcing behaviors. Thus, this review will be very helpful for researchers in lithium metal to analyze their overpotential behaviors.

In fermentations with a 4-liter stirred tank bioreactor, a better than two-fold enhancement of the gas-liquid mass transfer coefficient$(k_La)$ in the celite-immobilized fungal cultures of Tolypocladium in flatum over the parallel conventional free-cell was observed at identical biomass concentrations, despite the higher specific oxygen uptake rate of the immobilized fungi during exponential growth. As a result oxygen sufficient conditions, i. e., dissolve oxygen(D.O.) concentrations exceeding 75% air saturation, could be maintained throughout exponential growth period of the immobilized culture, in contrast to the suspended fungal culture, whose D.O. levels fell below 50% air saturation. A linear monotonic dependence of $k_La$ upon impeller agitaion rate was found for both immobilized and conventional cultivation modes over a range of 250 to 550rpm, the slope being a function of biomass concentration for the free but not for the immobilized cell system In contrasts oxygen transfer rate was a much weaker function of aeration rate up to about 2.5 vvm for both culture configurations. Above this level, aeration rate had no further effect on the mass transfer. In addition, the immobilized cultures sustained good morphological and physiological states, leading to almost two times higher cyclosporln A (CyA) productivity overt the parallel free cell system. These experiments suggest that the celite-immobilized fungal system in a stirred tank reactor has considerable promise for scaling up cyclosporin A production in terms of high-density cultivation.

In this work dynamic heat transfer in a CPFS (cable penetration fire stop) system built in the firewall of nuclear power plants is three-dimensionally investigated to develop a test-simulator that can be used to verify effectiveness of the sealant. Dynamic heat transfer in the fire stop system is formulated in a parabolic PDE (partial differential equation) subjected to a set of initial and boundary conditions. First, the PDE model is divided into two parts; one corresponding to heat transfer in the axial direction and the other corresponding to heat transfer on the vertical planes. The first PDE is converted to a series of ODEs (ordinary differential equations) at finite discrete axial points for applying the numerical method of SOR (successive over-relaxation) to the problem. The ODEs are solved by using an ODE solver In such manner, the axial heat flux can be calculated at least at the finite discrete points. After that, all the planes are separated into finite elements, where the time and spatial functions are assumed to be of orthogonal collocation state at each element. The initial condition of each finite element can be obtained from the above solution. The heat fluxes on the vertical planes are calculated by the Galerkin FEM (finite element method). The CPFS system was modeled, simulated, and analyzed here. The simulation results were illustrated in three-dimensional graphics. Through simulation, it was shown clearly that the temperature distribution was influenced very much by the number, position, and temperature of the cable stream, and that dynamic heat transfer through the cable stream was one of the most dominant factors, and that the feature of heat conduction could be understood as an unsteady-state process.

Korea is expected to become an 'aged society' with more than 14 percent of the public aged 65 years or more by 2018. The rapid aging is giving rise to various problems within the society along with falling birthrate in a short period of time. In this context, the role and function of laws on welfare for the aged must be particularly emphasized. Also the Senior Citizens Welfare Act is of great importance as it provides social welfare service on the basis of functional connection with social insurance and public assistance. First, this paper looks into the history of laws related to welfare for the elderly such as the Senior Welfare Act, the Act on Long-term Care Insurance for Senior Citizens and the Basic Old Age Pension Act as well as the findings of earlier studies. In the second place, it will break down such laws by main components aiming to examine details of the laws and questions raised regarding them and to seek ways to achieve improvement with an emphasis on health care, old age income security, housing welfare(assisted living facilities), job security for the aged. The Senior Welfare Act offers substance of social welfare service for the elderly. Income security, health and medical care, welfare measures through long-term care and assisted living facilities, social participation by working are the key elements and all of them should be closely associated to ensure citizens get sufficient public support in their old age. For this purpose, the Senior Welfare Act is under a normative network with laws such as Act on Long-term Care Insurance for Senior Citizens and Basic Old Age Pension Act. Current laws on welfare for the aged including Senior Welfare Act are not sufficiently responsive to the aged society of the 21st century. Income security combined with decent social participation, health and medical care closely connected with long-term care system, efficient expense sharing between government and local government, enhancement of effectiveness of welfare measures can be considered as means to improve current welfare system so that the elderly can enjoy their old age with dignity and respect.

The aim of the present work was to develop simultaneous methods of quantification of carazolol, azaperone, and azaperol residues in livestock and fishery products using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Samples were extracted from beef, pork, chicken, egg, milk and shrimp using acetonitrile (ACN); while flat fish and eel were extracted using 80% ACN. For purification, ACN saturated n-hexane was used to remove fat composition. The standard calibration curves showed good linearity as correlation coefficients; $r^2$ was > 0.99. Average recoveries expressed were within the range of 67.9-105% for samples fortified at three different levels ($0.5{\times}MRL$, $1{\times}MRL$ and $2{\times}MRL$). The correlation coefficient expressed as precision was within the range of 0.55-7.93%. The limit of quantification (LOQ) was 0.0002-0.002 mg/kg. The proposed analytical method showed high accuracy and acceptable sensitivity based on Codex guideline requirements (CAC/GL71-2009). This method can be used to analyze the residue of carazolol, azaperone, and azaperol in livestock and fishery products.

To determine application rate of elemental sulfur to adjust pH of alkaline soil, buffer curve method was investigated. The elemental sulfur required to control pH 8.3 to pH 6.3 by buffer curve calculation was treated in two soils of silty loam and sandy loam, and the sulfur-mixed soils were moistened with 50% of water holding capacity during incubation of 6 weeks at $30^{\circ}C$. Soil pH was lowered with incubation and reached to target point after 4 weeks of incubation, and elemental sulfur was oxidised entirely to sulfate. This means that buffer curve has the accuracy to determine sulfur application rate in alkaline soil. However it is estimated that application rate of sulfur should be carefully determined in the field scale. Excess application of elemental sulfur resulted in extremely low soil pH and caused the hinderance of lettuce growth by nutritional imbalance and ion toxicity. To simplify the determination procedure of sulfur requirement, buffer curve method by addition of 0.1N-HCl solution as unit of mL was developed, it was compared with theroutine methods which diluted $H_2SO_4$ solution and $Ca(OH)_2$ are added as cmolc per kg soil to adjust each pH step. Buffer capacities, cmolc kg $soil^{-1}$ $pH^{-1}$, calculated from two buffer curves were not significantly different. The result indicates that buffer curve method by 0.1N-HCl can be used to adjust high pH of alkaline soil.

1992년 한강수계법이 제정되면서 우리나라에 도입된 오염총량관리제는 현재 2차총량관리 시행계획수립 단계에 이르렀다. 오염총량제에서 수질모델은 수계구간별로 설정된 기준유량과 목표수질 조건을 달성하는 지를 판단할 수 있는 도구로 사용되며, 다양한 모델들이 사용되고 있다. 그 중 하천수질모형으로는 주로 QUAL2E, QUALKO, QUALKO2 모형으로 압축할 수 있다. QUAL2E 모형은 1980년대에 개발되어 국내외로 널리 이용하고 있으나 SOD를 0차나 일정량으로 처리하였고, 부착조류에 의한 용존산소 변화와 부유 조류 사멸시 발생하는 유기물이 고려되지 않았다. 또한 용존산소가 부족한 상태에서 반응이 활발한 탈질화과정이 포함되지 않아 이들 반응에 의해 수질이 영향을 받는 하천에 적용하기에는 한계가 있었다. 그리고 QUAL2E 모델은 여러 개의 지류를 가진 대형 하천에는 적용하기 어려운 단점이 있다. 국내에서는 1999년 QUAL2E 모델에 WASP5의 장점을 접목시켜 QUALKO 모델을 개발하였다. 이 모델은 QUAL2E에 부유성 조류의 사멸로 인한 유기물의 내부증가, 탈질화 반응 및 부착식물의 광합성 호흡 과정을 추가한 것이다. 또한 QUAL2E 모델에서 BOD는 CBOD로 입력되고 모의되므로 bottle BOD의 개념이 결여되어 있으므로 이러한 문제점을 보완하고, 조류의 생산 및 사멸에 의한 내부생산 유기물 증가와 탈질화 반응 과정을 추가한 것이다. 우리나라에서 진행되고 있는 총량관리 대상물질은 2010년까지는 $BOD_5$이며, 2011년부터는 일부 지역에 총인이 포함될 예정이다. 2007년에 실험실에서 측정하는 BOD5나 유기성 질소 또는 유기성 인을 그대로 입력하여 계산되고 출력할 수 있으며, 향후 오염총량제의 관리대상항목으로 논의되고 있는 TOC를 모의할 수 있는 QUALKO2가 개발되었다. 이에 본 연구에서는 향후 활용도가 클 것으로 기대되는 QUALKO2 모형에 기존 QUAL2E-UNCAS 모형에 서 수행할 수 있는 불확실성 해석 기법인 Monte Carlo 모의를 가능하도록 모형을 수정하고자 한다. 실제 하천에서의 수질해석에 대한 단순한 표현인 수학적 모형은 불확실성을 내포하고 있으며, Monte Carlo 해석을 사용하여 모형의 불확실도 정량화와 매개변수의 불확실성을 통계학적으로 기술할 수 있다. 또한 각 지점에 대한 계산결과치들에 대해 빈도 및 누가빈도분포 값을 제시함으로서 모형 예측치들의 전반적인 분포경향을 평가할 수 있으며, 하천수질에 대해서 환경기준치를 위배할 가능성을 산정하는데 활용할 수 있다. 우리나라 실정에 맞는 QUALKO2 모형에 Monte Carlo 모의를 통해 신뢰도 기반의 수질해석을 수행하게 된다면 수질정책의 기초자료 제공에 기여할 것으로 판단된다.
