Changing drastically, the life in a modern city has forced citizens to gradually shorten their average period of settlement, which has weakened the identity of city habitation, thus causing serious crimes and damaging the security of city greatly. Haying a highly composite structure with not only macro, but micro characteristics, city is grasped as a very composite phenomenon shown in the social, economic and spatial constitution relationships, including the personal motives of criminals. Accordingly, this study puts stress on the necessity of any crime prediction program to predict the occurrence of crimes by analyzing the occurrence patterns of sharply increasing intra-city crimes of violence on a typical, time and spatial basis and clarifying their structural dynamic relationships in a both macro and micro manner. Moreover, the deduction of various factors closely related to crime occurrence will contribute to elucidating the occurrence structure of city crimes.

The uncertainties of microstructural features affect the properties of materials. Numerous pores that are randomly distributed in materials make it difficult to predict the properties of the materials. The distribution of pores in cementitious materials has a great influence on their mechanical properties. Existing studies focus on analyzing the statistical relationship between pore distribution and material responses, and the correlation between them is not yet fully determined. In this study, the mechanical response of cementitious materials is predicted through an image-based data approach using a convolutional neural network (CNN), and the correlation between pore distribution and material response is analyzed. The dataset for machine learning consists of high-resolution micro-CT images and the properties (tensile strength) of cementitious materials. The microstructures are characterized, and the mechanical properties are evaluated through 2D direct tension simulations using the phase-field fracture model. The attributes of input images are analyzed to identify the spot with the greatest influence on the prediction of material response through CNN. The correlation between pore distribution characteristics and material response is analyzed by comparing the active regions during the CNN process and the pore distribution.

Objective: The present study was aimed at an analytical formulation of the micro-implant related torque as a function of implant size, i.e. the diameter and length, screw size, and the bony resistance at the implant to bone interface. Methods: The resistance at the implant to cancellous bone interface $(S_{can})$ was assumed to be in the range of 1.0-2.5 MPa. Micro-implant model of Absoanchor (Dentos Inc. Daegu, Korea) was used in the course of the analysis. Results: The results showed that the torque was a strong function of diameter, length, and the screw height. As the diameter increased and as the screw size decreased, the torque index decreased. However the strength index was a different function of the implant and bone factors. The whole Absoanchor implant models were within the safe region when the resistance at the implant/cancellous bone $(=S_{can})$ was 1.0 or less. Conclusion: For bone with $S_{can}$ of 1.5 MPa, the cervical diameter should be greater than 1.5 mm if micro-implant models of 12 mm long are to be placed. For $S_{can}$ of 2.0 MPa, micro-implant models of larger cervical diameter than 1.5 mm were found to be safe only if the endosseous length was less than 8 mm.

In this study, the characteristic of a 3-D micro-woven material, which is one of the newly developed periodic open-cell structure, is analyzed through various computational simulations. To increase the accuracy of the numerical simulations, the distance between each directional wire is parameterized using six design variables, and its model geometry is precisely discretized using tetrahedron elements. Using the improved computational model, the material properties of the mechanical, thermal, and fluidic behavior are investigated using commercial software and compared with the previous experimental results. By changing the space between the x- and y-directional wires, a parametric test is performed to determine the tendency of the change in the material properties. In addition, the correlation between two different material properties is investigated using the Ashby chart. The result can further be used in determining the optimal pattern and wire spacing in 3-D micro-woven materials.

스마트 돈사 내의 열환경 분석에 필수적으로 고려되어야 인자는 가축의 복사 에너지 변화로 볼 수 있다. 열환경 제어의 대상이기도 하지만 회귀적으로 열환경 변화의 인자이기도 하다. 이러한 가축의 복사 에너지 분석을 위하여 시설 내에 용이하게 배포가 가능한 열화상 계측 시스템을 개발하였다. 초소형 마이크로 열화상 계측 시스템에 부가적으로 IOT(Internet of Thing) 기반 기술을 이용한 모듈화 개발을 병행하였다. 열화상 계측 센서로 LWIR(Longwave infrared)영역에 해당하는 $8{\mu}m{\sim}4{\mu}m$의 영역에서 $0.05^{\circ}C$의 분해능을 보이는 $Lepton^{TM}$ (500-0690-00, FLIR, Goleta, CA)모델을 사용하였다. SPI(Serial Peripheral Interface) 속도 2 Mhz로 마이크로프로세서(NanoPi NEO Air, FrendlyArm, CA, USA)와 고속 통신을 수행하여 9 Hz의 계측이 가능하다. 열화상 센서와 마이컴으로 구성되는 단위 계측 시스템의 통신 기능 확장을 위하여 다음과 같이 세 단계의 정보 전달 시나리오를 설계하였다. 1) 단독적으로 열화상을 계측 하고 내장된 메모리에 저장하는 형식 2) 인접한 사용자 인터페이스에서 1번 단독 모듈에 접속하여 열화상을 실시간으로 전송하여 화면에 도시하는 형식 3) 2번 사용자 도시모듈과 병행적으로 Local WI-FI 통신을 이용한 모바일 기기에 화면을 도시하는 형식. 이와 같은 계층적이며 모듈화된 계측 시스템을 구성하기 위해서 1번 모듈에 공개 소프트웨어인 Hostapd 2.5(http://w1.fi/hostapd)버전을 설치하였다. 외부 인터넷 환경이 없는 상황에 1번 모듈 단독으로 AP(Access Point) 기능을 제공하여 지근 거리에 있는 2번 모듈과 3번 모바일 기기의 접속을 관리할 수 있다. 2번 모듈의 경우 화면 다수의 1번 모듈에 접속을 교차적으로 수행하는 방식과 2번 모듈 자체가 AP가 되어 1번 모듈의 접속을 허용하는 형태로 구성되어 있다. 계측 시스템의 계측 매트릭스 구성에 따라 선택적으로 결정할 수 있다. 1번 2번 모듈 공통적으로 TCP/IP Listener와 Client 서비스를 병렬적으로 수행할 수 있도록 개발을 하였다. 3번 모바일 기기에서 사용자 인터페이스 구현을 위하여 범용 Android 기반 GUI 프로그램과 Socket 통신을 연동시켰다. 1개의 열화상 Frame의 전송량은 9,600 Byte ($=80{\times}60{\times}2Byte$) 로 WI-FI 통신 전송 시 2회 ~ 6회 정도 내외로 가변적인 통신 수행 횟수를 나타내었다. 센서 계측 시스템과 정보 전송 시스템을 병렬적으로 구성한 모듈화 된 계측시스템의 전 요소에서 센서에서 제공하는 최대 계측 주기인 9 Hz 구현이 일반적으로 가능하였다. 이를 이용한 추후 연구를 통해 가축 객체의 열복사 정보와 돈사 내 열환경 간의 역학성을 연구할 것이다.

Fischer-Tropsch synthesis reaction converts syngas (mixture of CO and H2) to valuable hydrocarbon products. Simulation of low temperature Fischer -Tropsch Synthesis reaction and heat transfer at intensified process condition using catalyst filled single and multichannel microchannel reactor is considered. Single channel model simulation indicated potential for process intensification (higher GHSV of $30000hr^{-1}$ in presence of theoretical Cobalt based super-active catalyst) while still achieving CO conversion greater than ~65% and $C_{5+}$ selectivity greater than ~74%. Conjugate heat transfer simulation with multichannel reactor block models considering three different combinations of reactor configuration and coolant type predicted ${\Delta}T_{max}$ equal to 23 K for cross-flow configuration with wall boiling coolant, 15 K for co-current flow configuration with subcooled coolant, and 13 K for co-current flow configuration with wall boiling coolant. In the range of temperature maintained (498 - 521 K), chain growth probability calculated is desirable for low-temperature Fisher-Tropsch Synthesis.

Driven by both environmental and economic reasons, the development of small to medium scale GTL(gas-to-liquid) process for offshore applications and for utilizing other stranded or associated gas has recently been studied increasingly. Microchannel GTL reactors have been prefrered over the conventional GTL reactors for such applications, due to its compactness, and additional advantages of small heat and mass transfer distance desired for high heat transfer performance and reactor conversion. In this work, multi-microchannel reactor was simulated by using commercial CFD code, ANSYS FLUENT, to study the geometric effect of the microchannels on the heat transfer phenomena. A heat generation curve was first calculated by modeling a Fischer-Tropsch reaction in a single-microchannel reactor model using Matlab-ASPEN integration platform. The calculated heat generation curve was implemented to the CFD model. Four design variables based on the microchannel geometry namely coolant channel width, coolant channel height, coolant channel to process channel distance, and coolant channel to coolant channel distance, were selected for calculating three dependent variables namely, heat flux, maximum temperature of coolant channel, and maximum temperature of process channel. The simulation results were visualized to understand the effects of the design variables on the dependent variables. Heat flux and maximum temperature of cooling channel and process channel were found to be increasing when coolant channel width and height were decreased. Coolant channel to process channel distance was found to have no effect on the heat transfer phenomena. Finally, total heat flux was found to be increasing and maximum coolant channel temperature to be decreasing when coolant channel to coolant channel distance was decreased. Using the qualitative trend revealed from the present study, an appropriate process channel and coolant channel geometry along with the distance between the adjacent channels can be recommended for a microchannel reactor that meet a desired reactor performance on heat transfer phenomena and hence reactor conversion of a Fischer-Tropsch microchannel reactor.

In recently, the demand of cover-glass is increased because smart phone, tablet pc, and electrical device has become widely used. The display of mobile device is enlarged, so it is necessary to have a high strength against the external force such as contact or falling. In fabrication process of cover-glass, a grinding process is very important process to obtain high strength of glass. Conventional grinding process using a grinding wheel is caused such as a scratch, chipping, notch, and micro-crack on a surface. In this paper, polishing system using a abrasive film was developed for a grinding of mobile cover-glass. To evaluate structural stability of the designed system, finite element model of the polishing system is generated, and multi-body dynamic analysis of abrasive film polishing machine is proposed. As a result of the analysis, stress and displacement analysis of abrasive film polishing system are performed, and using laser displacement sensor, structural stability of abrasive film polishing system is confirmed by measuring displacement.

The control of the surface energy by electrohydrodynamic force provides electrospraying with various potential advantages such as simple particle size control, mono-dispersity, high recovery, and mild processing conditions. The advantages are quite helpful to improve the stability of protein drug and control its release. Herein, the nano-encapsulation of protein drugs using electrospraying was investigated. Albumin as a model protein was processed using uniaxial and co-axial electrospraying, and chitosan, polycaporlactone (PCL), and poly (ethylene glycol) (PEG) were used as encapsulation materials. The major processing parameters such as the conductivity of spraying liquids, flow rate, the distance of electrical potential gradient, etc were measured to obtain the maximum efficiency. In the chitosan systems, mean particles size decreases as flow rate and the distance between nozzle and the collecting part decreases. In the uniaxial technique of the PCL systems, mean particles size decreases as flow rate decreases. In the coaxial technique of the PCL systems, it was found that the particles size gets larger under the application of the higher ratio of inner-to-outer liquid flow rates. The primary particles formed out of an electrospraying nozzle showed narrow particle size distribution, but once they arrived to the collecting part, aggregation behavior was observed obviously. Efficient nano-encapsulation of albumin with PCL, PEG, and chitosan was conveniently achieved using electrospraying at above 12 kV.
