The relationship between the mechanical and textural properties of sedimentary rocks has been studied for decades. However, inconsistencies in the results have arisen from both the inhomogeneity of natural rocks and the difficulties encountered in controlling just one textural factor of interest in each experiment. This work produced artificial sedimentary rocks to enable control of every independent parameter at all times. Their homogeneity lowered the deviation of the results, and thus they produced clearer correlations than for natural rocks. The samples were made by mixing bassanite powder with water and silica sand, which produced rocks consisting of sand and gypsum cement. The effect of grain content and size on mechanical properties such as uniaxial compressive strength, Young's modulus, and seismic velocity was estimated. Increasing grain content lowered the compressive strength but raised Young's modulus and seismic velocity. Overall, grain size did not linearly affect the mechanical properties of the samples, but affected them in some way. In future, these results can be compared and integrated with similar experiments using different cement or grain types. This should allow comparison of the effects of the rock constituents themselves and their interactions, with applicability to all kinds of sedimentary rocks.

팔당호는 수도권의 상수원수로서 매우 중요한 역할을 맡고 있다. 팔당호의 수도권 상수도 공급량은 전체 공급량에 32%를 차지하고 있으며, 현재 4개의 취수구에서 상수원수가 취수되고 있다. 취수장의 총 취수시설 용량은 $9.02{\times}10^6\;m^3/day$ 규모이고, 실제 취수되는 양은 약 $4{\times}10^6\;m^3/day$이다. 따라서 팔당호의 지속적인 수질관리 및 수질예측이 중요하다고 할 수 있다. 실제로 팔당호는 여러 가지 수질 문제를 안고 있다. 팔당호 상류의 인구가 증가하고 도시화되면서 유입되는 오염물질의 양이 증가하고 있으며 이런 상황에서 상수원수로서 필요한 수질을 확보하는 데에 어려움을 겪고 있다. 특히 집중호우 시 호수 및 하천에 발생하는 부유사 문제가 심각한 수준이다. 하천에서 부유사 문제는 수자원 이용뿐만 아니라 하천 생태계까지 피해를 미치게 된다. 따라서 부유사 거동에 대해 해석하는 모형개발에 대한 연구가 필요한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 이렇듯 중요성과 문제성을 동시에 지니고 있는 팔당호의 수질을 예측, 관리를 위해 2차원 수질모델을 이용하여 부유물질 확산거동을 예측하고자 한다. 수로연장이 길고 수심이 깊은 댐이나 호수에서는 x-z방향으로 구획을 나누고 하천, 하구나 만에서는 수심보다 수평방향 면적이 넓기 때문에 x-y방향으로 구획을 나누는 것이 일반적이며, 팔당호의 경우 수리학적으로 큰 규모의 호수이기 때문에 이러한 2차원 모형을 이용하는 것이 적합하다. 본 연구에서는 2차원 수질 해석모델인 SED-2D를 이용하여 부유사 확산 거동에 대한 해석모델 개발을 연구하였다.

Because the hazardous working environments and high labor intensity of the root industry can potentially impact the health of workers, current regulations have focused on measuring and controlling environmental factors, on a semi-annual basis. However, there is a lack of quantitative criteria addressing workers' health conditions other than the physical work environment. This gap makes it challenging to prevent occupational diseases resulting from continuous exposure to harmful substances below regulatory thresholds. Therefore, this paper proposes a machine learning-based method for determining the peak level of risk in root industry work environments and enables real-time safety assessment in workplaces utilizing this approach.

The urban areas have various landuses such as residential, commercial, industrial and official purposes that are highly concerned with human activities. The other landuses are relating to vehicle activities, which are roads, parking lots, bridges, parks etc. The mainly using landuses by human activities are possessing three different areas that are buildings, parking lots/roads and landscapes. Of these areas, the buildings and landscapes can be classified as non-pollution areas. However, the parking lots or roads are classifying as the main pollution areas because of vehicle activities. Therefore, the landuses arising the nonpoint pollution during a storm in urban areas are roads and parking lots. The vehicles are emitting lots of nonpoint pollutants such as metals and particulate matters and it is impacting on water qualities and aqua-ecosystems nearby the city areas. Therefore, this research was conducted for characterizing the pollutant types and determining the EMCs (Event Mean Concentrations) and unit pollutant loads during a storm. The monitoring was performed on 9 locations such as highways, service area, tollgates, parking lot and bridges. All of the landuses selected for monitoring are concerned with transportation. The results can be effectively used to predict the pollutant loading before urban planning and to select the BMPs (Best Management Practices) for reducing the pollution.

Concerns on the air pollution problem caused by ambient fine particles have become a big social issue in Korea. Important factors that should be addressed to develop effective and efficient air quality management policy, especially, against fine particles are discussed and research and policy directions to address these factors are suggested. It is suggested that two factors are in high priority; one is scientific understanding of the major formation mechanisms of fine particles and the other is the process of policy decision and implementation. For the scientific understanding, smog chamber measurement, intensive field study, and chemical transport model development that can simulate the characteristics of Northeast Asia are considered to be important. For the policy directions, priority setting of the proposed policies and development and implement of effective communication sytem are considered to be important.

This study was performed to look into the difficulty of students in understanding science stories in 6th grade science textbooks and to analyze those factors. To do this, 6th grader (N=65) were selected from J Elementary School located in Gyeonggi-do Siheung-si as study subjects. 26 science stories in 6th grade science textbooks were classified by field and context (complement of knowledge, science history of scientists, science in life, cutting-edge science technology, environment issues) in which the characteristics were investigated and analyzed. Also, a survey about the difficulty in understanding science stories(26 items) was conducted(65 students) and a semi-structured interview was conducted for students to clarify the meaning of collected data from surveys(4 students). As result of analyzing surveys on science story context in science textbooks and interviews, 4 fields of 'energy,' 'matter,' 'life,' and 'earth' were evenly mentioned. Science in life and complement of science knowledge were mentions most for context and this had relation with the characteristic of science textbooks to provide many opportunities to apply learned knowledge in actual social issues. Reactions of students on science stories were mostly positive that they help studying science, but there was also difficulty in well understanding science stories. Difficulty of understanding context, problems of context suggesting methods, difficulty of science terminology, lack of interest, and etc. were analyzed as factors. Specific causes were mentioned to be description type class, unimportant context, lack of explanation on suggested context, problem of pictures by students.

Purpose Westgard multi-rules application based on test quality improvement and commercialized international standard has been widely used in quality control. However, it is difficult to applicate the Westgard multi-rules in nuclear medicine in vitro tests due to the larger sample sizes and the simultaneous measurement of quality control material and patient sample. This study investigated the usefulness of Westgard multi-rules application in nuclear medicine in vitro tests. Materials and Methods A total of 282 systematic error multi-rules (22s, 101s) recorded in the samsung medical center computer system from January 2013 to June 2016 along with 117 cases of corrective measure record was analyzed. The Quality control implementation is recorded in Hospital information system were divided into 4 high-level areas including quality control material error, experimental procedural error, Kit lot number management error, and others. To prevent quality control material error, the existing method that each staff used their own method was changed. The staff who in charge of managing the quality control material was designated and daily consumption amount of every test was strictly controlled by one person. To prevent other errors, every test step was standardized so that the entire test procedures are identically implemented. Results The total quality control implementation was 117 cases; As a result, 62 quality control material errors were 62 cases, experimental process errors were 24 cases, Kit lot number control errors were 18 cases, and other errors were 13 cases. The quality control material error was corrected and could be used fresh materials within 2 days after thawing. The cases of systemic error were decreased to causes as quality control material error. The quality control materials were reduced above 10 vials to a monthly average. In addition, these errors of experimental processing and Kit lot number were improved by test standardization. Consequently, the cases of 101s and 22s in systematic error rules decreased at least 2 cases to a monthly average. Conclusion To confirm of systematic error through multi-rules application quickly, it is necessary to base on management of the QC material, target values and standard deviation. Moreover, in the event of a systematic error, it was found important to record measures based on test cause analysis. The experiment results are expected to contribute to internal quality control improvement and prompt and accurate result reporting through error recording and causal analysis based on Westgard multi-rules analysis.

기존의 MOSFET 구조의 소자는 비례 축소에 의한 단 채널효과, 누설전류, 신뢰성 문제 같은 어려움에 직면해 있다. 이로 인해 20 nm 이하 소자 크기에서 기존의 MOSFET을 대체할 여러가지 차세대 소자에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행 되고 있다. 그 중에서 FinFET 소자는 비례 축소에 용이하고 누설전류 문제에 대한 장점으로 인해 활발한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 기존의 FinFET 소자에 대한 연구는 FinFET 구조를 이용한 메모리 소자의 전기적 특성의 향상, fin의 크기에 따른 소자의 특성 변화와 FinFET 구조의 물질 변화에 따른 전기적 특성 변화에 대한 연구가 많이 이루어져 왔다. 실제 공정에서의 fin의 형태 변화에 따른 전기적 특성변화에 대한 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 fin의 모서리의 모양의 변화에 따른 FinFET 소자의 전기적 특성 변화를 관찰하였고 전하 수송 메커니즘을 규명하였다. 실제 FinFET 소자의 공정에서 fin의 형태는 이상적인 직육면체 모양이 아니라 옆면이 기울고 모서리가 곡선이 되게 된다. 이로 인한 전자의 이동도 변화로 인해 소자의 성능이 변화하게 된다. FinFET의 경우 채널을 구성하는 fin의 각 면의 Si의 orientation이 다르다. 또한 fin의 모서리의 모양이 변화 함에 따라 채널영역의 orientation이 변화 하게 된다. 이에 따라 fin의 모서리 모양의 변화에 따른 소자의 전기적 특성 변화를 multi-orientation mobility model을 포함한 three-dimensional TCAD 시뮬레이션을 통해 계산하였다. 옆면과 윗면이 만나는 모서리의 모양의 곡률의 크기를 증가하여 다양한 fin의 형태에서 전기적 특성을 관찰하였다. Fin의 옆면과 윗면이 만나는 모서리의 곡률이 증가함에 따라 depletion 영역의 크기 변화와 채널에서의 전자의 밀도와 이동도의 변화를 관찰하였고 이를 토대로 fin의 형태 변화가 FinFET 소자의 전기적 특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다.

21세기의 IT 및 NT를 선두 하게 될 나노소자의개발은 10년 전부터 아주 활발히 연구되고 있다. 최근, 이러한 나노소자의 연구 가운데 주목할 만한 물질이 ZnO 이다. ZnO를 기반으로 한 나노구조는 여러 성장 법으로 성장이 용이하고, 그 물리적, 광학적 특성이 우수하여 광 전소자 응용에 크게 이바지할 물질로 관심을 끌고 있다. 이 가운데 나노선은 소자제작이 용이해 가장 많이 이용되고 있다. 나노선을기반으로 한 소자제작은 bottom-up 공정을 지향하고 있지만, 아직은 top-down 방식이 소자제작의 주류를 이루고 있다. 특히, 나노선 FET 소자제작 시에는 여전히 top-down이 사용되고 있으며, 채널로 사용되는 나노선의 어레이공정은 소자제작 시 가장 큰 어려움으로 대두되고 있다. 하지만, 이러한나노선의 수평 어레이 공정을 감소시킬 구조로 기판에 수평으로 배열된 나노월 구조가 제안되고 있다. 나노월구조는 어레이 공정 수를 크게 감소시켜 생산가격 면에서 큰 이점을 가져올 것으로 생각된다. 하지만, 이러한 ZnO 나노월은 GaN 기판에 한정하여 성장되고 있으며, 일부 Si 기판 위에 성장할지라도나노 사이즈가 아닌 마이크로 사이즈의 거친 표면을 가지는 박막구조로 보고되었다. 때문에, 가격적으로 비싸고 응용성이 제한적인 비전도성 기판을 대신하여, 가격이 저렴하고 응용성이 넓은 Si과 같은 전도성 기판에 나노월 구조를 성장하는 기술이 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 Mg의 도입으로 자발적으로 형성된 비정질 MgO층 위에 상 분리된 MZO 비정질-단결정 층들을 이용하여 어떠한 기판에서도 나노월 구조가 성장할 수 있는 기반 기술을 소개한다.
