A numerical study on soot formation in a laminar ethylene diffusion flame at atmospheric pressure was conducted to obtain a better understanding of the effects of buoyancy on sooting flames under 0g and 1g using a gas-phase reaction mechanism and thermal and transport properties. A simple model was employed to predict soot formation, growth and oxidation with interactions between the gas phase chemistry and the soot chemistry taken into account. Results showed that the flames in 0g are much wider than that of 1g because of the thicker diffusion layer and reduction in axial velocity. The reduction in the axial velocity in 0g results in longer residence times, and resulting in greatly enhanced soot volume fraction. And, under zero-gravity, due to the lack of a buoyancy-induced instability, flame instability disappears.

The gravitational consolidation behavior of the dredged ground with horizontal drains is analyzed using a finite difference program developed for self-weight consolidation analysis with horizontal drains. The influence of area and direction of horizontal drains on the consolidation time and settlement is analyzed. Various field conditions such as the non-treated ground below horizontal drain installed ground, the accumulation of drained water at the end of horizontal drains, are also included in the analyses. It was found that a slight decrease of consolidation time is resulted in the twice increase of the sectional area of drains. Installing drains vertically can reduce the consolidation time more significantly than installing drains horizontally. The analyses showed quantitatively that the non-treated ground below the horizontal drain installed ground has much influence on long term consolidation settlement, and the accumulation of hydraulic head at the end of horizontal drains results in the increase of consolidation time and insufficient consolidation.

In recent, it is said that the trend of LCD is direction to pursue high qualities like as high transmittance, high contrast ratio, wide viewing angle, fast response time, and so on. Especially, it is known that these qualities are essential to large size LCD like as LCD TV and we can realize them through to uniform cell gap and deep black state. Until now, the ball spacer has been used to control of uniform cell gap. However, the existence of ball spacer inside the cell causes the deformation of the liquid crystal molecules and damage to alignment layer. Such a deformation of the liquid crystal causes light-leakage in the dark state, which lowers contrast ratio of the display. Nowadays, this problem has been solved by using Patterned Spacer on Color Filter. but Side Effect just as gravity mura has been induced. In this paper, we studied the mechanism on gravity mura in case of using patterned spacer on color filter.

A simple and effective guidance and control scheme that enables autonomous three-dimensional path-following for a fixed wing aircraft is presented. The method utilizes the nonlinear path-following guidance law for the outer loop that creates steering acceleration command based on the desired flight path and the current position and velocity of the vehicle. The scheme considers the gravity in the guidance level, where it is subtracted from the acceleration command to form the specific force acceleration command which the aircraft is better suited to follow than the total acceleration command in the inner-loop. A roll attitude control scheme is also presented that enables inverted flight or sideslip maneuvers such as slow roll and knife-edge. A series of aerobatic maneuvers are demonstrated through simulations to show the potential of the proposed scheme.

The axisymmetric methane-air counterflow flame in microgravity was simulated to investigate effects of the global strain rate on the flame structure. The flame shapes and profiles of temperature and the axial velocity for the mole fraction of methane in the methane-nitrogen fuel stream, Xm= 20, 50, $80\%$, and the global strain rate, ag= 20, 60, 90 $s^{-1}$ each mole fraction were compared. The profiles of the temperature and axial velocity of the axisymmetric simulations were in good agreement with those of OPPDIF, an one-dimensional flamelet code. It was confirmed that the flame is stretched more and the flame radius increases and the flame thickness decreases as the global strain rate increases.

세계적으로 기후변화 현상으로 인해 극심한 이상 가뭄이 빈번하게 발생하고 있다. 물 공급 소외지역의 경우 가뭄으로 인해 주민들이 불편을 겪고 있으며, 특히 마을상수도 및 소규모수도시설에 의존하는 최상류부 유역의 취수원은 상대적으로 가뭄에 취약하다. 본 연구의 대상 지역은 강원도 춘천시 물로천의 제1지류 유역으로 주민들이 하천 계곡수를 생활용수의 주 공급원으로 사용하고 있다. 해당지역은 갈수기에 생활용수 부족 문제를 겪고 있는 지역으로 가뭄 대응을 위한 구조적 대책으로 다단식 Sand댐을 설치할 예정이다. 현장조사 결과 물로천의 물은 취수조로 일부 유입되며, 자갈 등을 이용하여 부유물 등이 필터링되어 물탱크로 흘러내리며 중력에 의해 각 가정으로 자연 유하하는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서는 대상지역의 하천, 취수조, 물탱크 3개 지점에 압력식 자동 수위 관측기를 설치하였으며, 2시간 간격의 수위를 측정할 수 있도록 설정하여 매달 유속 측정을 통해 수위-유량 관계 곡선식을 바탕으로 유량을 산정하였다. 도출된 일별 유량 자료와 SWAT 모형의 매개변수 검·보정한 후 이를 장기간으로 확장 적용하여 약 10년간의 장기 유출량을 산정하였다. 일별 장기 유출량 자료를 통해 평균 유량 감수곡선과 감수곡선식을 도출하였고, 무강우에 따른 최대 공급가능일수를 산정하였다. 본 연구에서는 하천-취수원 연계 모니터링 및 하천 유량에 따른 공급가능일수 등을 제시하여 가뭄 취약지역의 주민 불편을 최소화하고 가뭄에 대응할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 최종적으로 추후 Sand댐 건설 전후 비교 자료로 사용될 수 있으며, 소규모수도시설의 가뭄 관리를 위한 모니터링 체계 및 대응 방안을 구축하였다.

This study was conducted to determine the effects of physical treatments for quality of wet noodles. Noodles were being tried with a microwave (for 1 min), an autoclave (for 30 or 50 min), and both autoclave and microwave (for 30/1 min or 50/1 min). The results showed that the pH levels were slightly decreased after treatments of autoclave and autoclave/microwave. The moisture contents were considerably decreased as compared to the control except autoclave (50 min). After all treatments, the lightness was decreased in all samples, but, redness was increased (except microwave) and the yellowness was increased after autoclave (50 min) and autoclave/microwave (50/1 min). Texture was increased as compared to the control except microwave. In the sensory evaluation, the noodles treated with microwave, autoclave (50 min), and autoclave/ microwave (50/1 min) showed a high score in overall preference. From these results, both the autoclave and microwave methods can be applied to the wet noodles without diminishing its quality to a great extent.

Gravity-driven membrane (GDM) filtration system based on the nanofiber membrane was investigated. This system can be operated with little energy demand due to a gravitational pressure-driven filtration and biological fouling control strategy. Moreover, the optimal module configuration based on the high permeance of nanofiber membrane can provide a significantly high water productivity. In order to evaluate its applicability potential, the pilot-scale (3000-5000 L/day) systems with nanofiber membranes were operated in developing countries (Kiribati and Tuvalu). Our results showed that the 14-92 L/(m²×h) of the permeate flux was determined indicating a stabilized water productivity. In addition, the permeate water indicated a high removal rate (more than 99.99%) of turbidity and bacteria. Consequently, the system can provide a stabilized water production with safe permeate water quality during long-term operation. These findings exemplify an effective approach to decentralized drinking water treatment for developing countries.

Field measurements of the winds and waves were carried out for one year at multiple locations inside and outside of the Pohang New Harbor in order to clarify the reason of downtimes frequently occurring at most of the harbor quays and to establish an efficient countermeasure. In addition, the downtime records of the quays and precipitation data provided by Korea Meteorological Agency were acquired for mutual comparison and comprehensive analysis of the cause of downtimes. Except the influence of precipitation, it was found that the downtimes occurred when the height of waves entering into the harbor incurred by either one of swell, wind seas, or mixture of both, exceeded a threshold. The seiche whose period ranges from 5 to 80 minutes, which was suspected as a possible cause of the downtimes, is shown to have no direct relation with the downtimes. Meanwhile, the height of far-infra-gravity waves whose period ranges between 0.5 and 3 minutes, propagating to the harbor mouth forced by short period waves, showed almost proportional relationship with the height of short period waves. Based on the result of this study, it is concluded that the downtime problems of Pohang New Harbor can be greatly improved by effectively preventing the entrance of short period waves such as swell or wind seas.

Terrain data is one of important basic data in various areas of Earth science. Recently, finer DEM data is available, which necessary to develop a method that deals with such huge data efficiently. This study was conducted on the lossless compression of DEM data and efficient partial reconstruction of terrain information from compressed data. In this study, we compressed the wavelet coefficients of DEM, obtained from integer wavelet transform (IWT) by entropy encoding. CDF (Cohen-Daubechies-Feauveau) 3.5 wavelet showed the best compression ratio of about 45.4% and the optimum decomposition level was 3. Results also showed that a small region of terrain could be restored from the inverse wavelet transform with a part of the wavelet coefficients that are related to such region instead of whole reconstruction. We discussed the potential applications of the terrain data compression for precise gravity terrain correction.
