합류식 하수도는 오수와 우수를 동시에 배제하는 하수관거 시스템으로 시공이 쉽고 건설비용이 저렴한 반면에 강우시 차집되지 않고 월류되는 유출량으로 인해 수체에 악영향을 초래한다. 관거에서 유출되는 유출수는 강우 초기에 유역에서 집중적으로 유출되는 비점오염원과 하수 및 관거내 오염물질 등을 동반하여 수질 개선을 어렵게 하고 수질 악화를 가중시킨다. 본 연구에서는 기존 유역에 설치된 합류식 하수관거를 분류식으로 개선하고 강우시 초기 세척에 의해 유입하는 비점오염원을 삭감하기 위한 초기우수 처리시설 설치에 따른 M 저수지 수질개선 효과를 수치모델을 사용하여 모의하였다. 저수지의 수질예측은 횡방향 평균 2차원 저수지 수리 및 수질모델인 CE-QUAL-W2를 사용하였다. 저수지 유입량은 군산기상대에서 관측한 일별 강우량 자료를 이용하여 일별 유출량을 산정하였고, 댐 방류량 자료는 M저수지의 2006년 일별 관측수위를 이용하여 유입량과 수위-체적 곡선으로부터 산정하였다. 모델의 보정은 2005년 5월과 8월에 측정한 수질자료를 이용하여 수행하였으며, 저수지의 관측값과 모의결과는 저수지 중앙부 대표지점에서 이루어졌으며, 모델은 관측값을 잘 반영하였다. 모의 결과 M 저수지의 연평균 BOD농도는 합류식(1.25 mg/L)에 비해 분류식 하수 관거(0.91 mg/L)를 도입할 경우 27.2% 개선되었으며, 초기우수 처리시설(0.84 mg/L)을 추가 할 경우 32.8%까지 개선효과가 상승하였다. 기존 합류식 하수관거의 경우 연간 유출부하량은 7,713 kg/yr이었으며, 분류식으로 전환할 경우 2,256 kg/yr, 초기우수처리시설을 추가할 경우 902 kg/yr로 삭감되는 것으로 예측되었다. 분류식하수관거와 초기우수처리를 모두 이행할 경우, BOD와 COD 기준이 호수 수질 기준 II등급 이내로 유지되며, T-P 농도는 0.02mg/L 이하로 유지되어 6월 이후 여름철에 저수지내 조류성장 억제에 효과가 클 것으로 예측되었다. 하수관거 정비사업을 통해 M 저수지는 기존의 농업용 저수지의 목표수질뿐만 아니라, 친수공간으로써 적합한 II등급 수질을 유지할 수 있을 것으로 판단되었다.

This study aims to 1) summarize the definitions the definitions of afrofuturism through a theoretical review 2) through exploratory empirical research, and 3) recover the concept of reversal in relation to the turning point of future technological development. To this end, first, the theoretical background and conceptual discussion of Afrofuturism were examined, and works in the field of SF literature, music, and art were analyzed. Octavia Butler's science fiction confirms the idea that black people must liberate themselves from othered oppression by bringing the past of slavery to the forefront of the world. Janelle Monae's music presents a liberated utopia where technology allows minorities to connect with the outside world. In addition, Jean-Michel Basquiat's artwork reimagines a black identity that has been excluded and seeks to expand communal discussions. In light of their work, this paper proposes that the values inherent in African humanism can provide clues to the co-evolution that is generated by relating to the Other in the face of exponentially advancing technology.

The joining of aluminum and HSS (high-strength steel) by the conventional clinching process is limited by the low formability of HSS. Defects in the clinching joint, such as necking of the upper sheet, cracks, and lack of interlocking, are produced by the different ductility properties of HSS and aluminum. In this study, we propose the hole clinching process for joining Al6061 and SPFC440, in which deformation of SPFC440 is avoided by drilling a hole in the SPFC440. The dimensions of the interlocking in the hole-clinched joint necessary to provide the required joint strength were determined. Based on the volume constant of the hole clinching process, the shapes of the tools were designed by finite element (FE)-analysis. A hole clinching experiment was performed to verify the proposed process. A cross-section of the joint showed good agreement with the results of the FE-analysis. The lap shear strength was found to be 2.56 kN, which is higher than required joint strength.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of ART-SORB which is commonly used in museums and galleries at home and abroad including National Museum of Korea, so as to collect useful information to control micro-environment. Experiment was conducted in air-tight condition in order to evaluate only the effect of ART-SORB excluding any influence from outside factors. A certain amount of ART-SORB considering the case size and ART-SORB in cassette type were used to evaluate the humidity controlling capability. The result showed that target humidity was reached in 10~17 hours in case of using corresponding amount of ART-SORB to the cubic volume and in 5~6 hours in case of excessive use of cassette type ART-SORB. And it also showed that humidity can be controlled in the range of RH 50~70%. In addition, ART-SORB was excellent at raising humidity at low humidity and poor at high humidity. Therefore, ART-SORB turned out to be an effective humidity buffer for controlling micro-environment of such artifacts as wooden ware, lacquer ware and paintings, which require high humidity. However, unfortunately, there are some difficulties in applying this result to real condition, given the fact that this study was conducted under firm air-tight case. Therefore, ART-SORB can be fully effective only in firm air-tight case.

원예산물의 밀도나 비중은 내부성분, 숙도, 내부붕괴(internal breakdown)와 같은 생리장해에 큰 영향을 받기 때문에, 밀도를 측정함으로써 내부품질에 대한 간접적인 판정이 가능하다고 보고되고 있다. 이 연구는 수박의 밀도와 당도와의 상관관계를 구명하고자 수행하였으며, 이를 위해 밀도의 실시간 계측시스템을 개발하였다. 현재 농산물의 밀도를 어느 정도 측정 정밀도를 유지하면서도 신속하게 측정할 수 있는 방법은 부력법(platform scale method)이다. 이 방법은 일정 크기의 용기에 물을 가득 채운 후 대상물을 담가 배제된 물의 무게를 측정하여 밀도를 환산한다. 그러나 매번 측정할 때마다 물을 보충하고, 물을 계량해야하는 등 전처리과정이 복잡하고, 1회 측정하는데 3~5분 정도가 소요되는 단점이 있고, 또한 인력 측정시 반복간 오차가 클 것으로 예상된다. 따라서 이 연구에서는 이 같은 계측상의 번거로움을 해소하고 동시에 신속하고 반복간 측정정밀도를 높일 수 있도록 수박 밀도 실시간 계측시스템을 설계 제작하였다. 시스템은 투명아크릴 수조($\Phi$400$\times$500), 로드셀, 프레임, 채반, 전기모터, 제어장치 및 컴퓨터로 구성하였다. 밀도 계측은 인장형 로드셀(CAS SB-20L, Max. 20kg)을 사용하여 대기중에서와 수박을 완전히 물에 잠기도록 한 후 무게를 각각 측정하여 밀도를 환산하였다. 밀도 계측시스템에 이용한 AD변환기의 분해능은 12bit이고, 수박의 무게 측정범위를 4~10kg로 가정할 때 20kg 로드셀의 1 digit(1bit)로 발생되는 오차는 0.09~0.24%FS 이었고, 따라서 이 시스템의 밀도 해상도는 0.001g/㎤이하였다. 시스템 평가를 위해 탄력이 좋은 고무풍선에 수박 크기 정도로 물을 채워 고정채반에 넣고 밀도를 측정한 결과 1.002g/㎤을 나타냈다. 즉 물의 이론밀도인 1g/㎤에 근접한 값을 보여 정확한 밀도 계측이 가능한 것으로 판단되었다. 또한 밀도 계측시스템의 측정 반복간 정밀도를 파악하기 위해 수박 6개를 임으로 선정하여 3반복 측정 시험한 결과, 측정표준편차가 0.001~0.004g/㎤로 해상도보다는 다소 높았으나 대체로 양호한 결과를 나타냈다. 수박 35개를 이용하여 개발 계측시스템과 사람이 직접 부력법으로 밀도를 측정 비교한 결과, 계측시스템에 의해 측정된 수박 밀도가 사람이 측정했을 때 보다 낮게 측정되었다. 수박의 외관인자(무게, 길이, 직경, 체적), 밀도와 당도의 상관관계 구명시험을 위해 원예연구소 시험포장에서 재배된 삼복꿀수박 총 74개를 공시재료로 하였고, 시험은 출수일별로 10~14개씩 수확하여 외관인자, 밀도, 당도를 각각 측정하고, 이들 인자들간의 상관관계를 구명하였다. 외관인자들간에는 높은 상관관계를 보였으나, 외관인자들과 밀도, 외관인자들과 당도, 밀도와 당도와는 매우 낮은 상관관계를 나타냈다.

Aggregate occupies about 70-85% of the concrete volume and is an important factor in reducing the drying shrinkage of concrete. However, when constructing high-rise buildings, it acts as a problem due to the high load of natural aggregates. If the load becomes large during the construction of a high-rise building, creep may occur and the ground may be eroded. Material costs increase and there are financial problems. In order to reduce the load on concrete, we are working to reduce the weight of aggregates. However, artificial lightweight aggregates affect the interface between the aggregate and the paste due to its higher absorption rate and lower adhesion strength than natural aggregates, affecting the overall strength of concrete. Therefore, in this study, in order to grasp the interface between natural aggregate and lightweight aggregate by type, we adopted a method of measuring electrical resistance using an EIS measuring device, which is a non-destructive test, and lightweight bone. The change in the state of the interface was tested on the outside of the material through a blast furnace slag coating. As a result of the experiment, it was confirmed that the electric resistance was about 90% lower than that in the air-dried state through the electrolyte immersion, and the electric resistance differs depending on the type of aggregate and the presence or absence of coating. As a result of the experiment, the difference in compressive strength depending on the type of aggregate and the presence or absence of coating was shown, and the difference in impedance value and phase angle for each type of lightweight aggregate was shown.

Adoration for nature constitutes one of the primary subjects that literature has tackled since the origin of human history. Nature expressed through a poet's subjective imagination is the internalized and reorganized nature. This study examines the view on nature enacted in Ch'o-Jung's three-verse poems (sijo) in light of the traditional views on nature implicated in the ancient three-verse poems (koshijo), which is in line with the long-established Oriental view on nature. To dignitaris(sadaebu) in the Chosun Dynasty, nature appeared as the idealistic subject for moral culture ($shims{\breve{o}}ngsuyang$), which also becomes the literary space where the purity and justice of the world view of Neo-Confucianism(Sungrihak) is contained in the form of the three-verse poem, the lyrical poetic space where the "I" is united with nature by way of "enjoying of wind and moon"($umpungnongw{\breve{o}}i$) and "living in quiet retiremen"($yuyuchaj{\breve{o}}k$), and the object for the poetical perception of the surrounding world. Ch'o-Jung' s three-verse odes are found in Reed pipe ($Ch'oj{\breve{o}}k$), Sixty Five Pieces of Three-Verse Odes (Samhaengshi-$yukshipopy{\breve{o}}n$), Autumn Fragrance ($Hyangginam{\check{u}}n-ga{\check{u}}l$), and The Words of Zelko va Tree ($N{\check{u}}tinamu{\check{u}}i-mal$). This study analyzes 212 pieces of Ch'o-Jung' s three-verse poems chosen from theses books. In Ch'o-Jung's poems, the traditional view on nature expressed in the ancient three-verse poems is rendered in such a way that metaphysical understanding of nature is indirectly transmitted through the objective correlatives found nature. Nature is no longer the object of straightforward utterance, but transformed, displaced, and removed: that way, nature gets objectified to form a complicated and multi-layered structure. In conclusion, the view on nature manifested in Ch'o-Jung's three-verse poems is based on traditional metaphysics. Second, nature is the object of lyrical nostalgia and adoration. Third, nature is imbued with the fundamental affection for parents. Fourth, nature is associated with organic life. Fifth, the nature in Ch'o-Jung's poems reveals the beauty of stillness endorsed in Lao-tse's and Chung-tze's philosophy. And last, nature is the agent for self-realization and meditation.

Purpose SPECT/CT was noted for its excellent correction method and qualitative functions based on fusion images in the early stages of dissemination, and interest in and utilization of quantitative functions has been increasing with the recent introduction of companion diagnostic therapy(Theranostics). Unlike PET/CT, various conditions like the type of collimator and detector rotation are a challenging factor for image acquisition and reconstruction methods at absolute quantification of SPECT/CT. Therefore, in this study, We want to find out the effect on the radioactivity concentration estimate by the increase or decrease of the total acquisition time according to the number of projections and the acquisition time per projection among SPECT/CT imaging conditions. Materials and Methods After filling the 9,293 ml cylindrical phantom with sterile water and diluting 99mTc 91.76 MBq, the standard image was taken with a total acquisition time of 600 sec (10 sec/frame × 120 frames, matrix size 128 × 128) and also volume sensitivity and the calibration factor was verified. Based on the standard image, the comparative images were obtained by increasing or decreasing the total acquisition time. namely 60 (-90%), 150 (-75%), 300 (-50%), 450 (-25%), 900 (+50%), and 1200 (+100%) sec. For each image detail, the acquisition time(sec/frame) per projection was set to 1.0, 2.5, 5.0, 7.5, 15.0 and 20.0 sec (fixed number of projections: 120 frame) and the number of projection images was set to 12, 30, 60, 90, 180 and 240 frames(fixed time per projection:10 sec). Based on the coefficients measured through the volume of interest in each acquired image, the percentage of variation about the contrast to noise ratio (CNR) was determined as a qualitative assessment, and the quantitative assessment was conducted through the percentage of variation of the radioactivity concentration estimate. At this time, the relationship between the radioactivity concentration estimate (cps/ml) and the actual radioactivity concentration (Bq/ml) was compared and analyzed using the recovery coefficient (RC_Recovery Coefficients) as an indicator. Results The results [CNR, radioactivity Concentration, RC] by the change in the number of projections for each increase or decrease rate (-90%, -75%, -50%, -25%, +50%, +100%) of total acquisition time are as follows. [-89.5%, +3.90%, 1.04] at -90%, [-77.9%, +2.71%, 1.03] at -75%, [-55.6%, +1.85%, 1.02] at -50%, [-33.6%, +1.37%, 1.01] at -25%, [-33.7%, +0.71%, 1.01] at +50%, [+93.2%, +0.32%, 1.00] at +100%. and also The results [CNR, radioactivity Concentration, RC] by the acquisition time change for each increase or decrease rate (-90%, -75%, -50%, -25%, +50%, +100%) of total acquisition time are as follows. [-89.3%, -3.55%, 0.96] at - 90%, [-73.4%, -0.17%, 1.00] at -75%, [-49.6%, -0.34%, 1.00] at -50%, [-24.9%, 0.03%, 1.00] at -25%, [+49.3%, -0.04%, 1.00] at +50%, [+99.0%, +0.11%, 1.00] at +100%. Conclusion In SPECT/CT, the total coefficient obtained according to the increase or decrease of the total acquisition time and the resulting image quality (CNR) showed a pattern that changed proportionally. On the other hand, quantitative evaluations through absolute quantification showed a change of less than 5% (-3.55 to +3.90%) under all experimental conditions, maintaining quantitative accuracy (RC 0.96 to 1.04). Considering the reduction of the total acquisition time rather than the increasing of the image acquiring time, The reduction in total acquisition time is applicable to quantitative analysis without significant loss and is judged to be clinically effective. This study shows that when increasing or decreasing of total acquisition time, changes in acquisition time per projection have fewer fluctuations that occur in qualitative and quantitative condition changes than the change in the number of projections under the same scanning time conditions.

The concept of 'monsters' have become popular, again, in recent times. A number of 'monster narratives' that discuss monsters such as zombies, humanoids, viruses, extraterrestrials, and serial killers have been made and re-made in popular media. Noting such an interesting cultural context, this article attempts, first, to find out some essential prototypical elements of a monster narrative and, second, to relate it with a catastrophic narrative. Correspondingly, the word 'monster' has been used as a conceptual prototype category that denies universal and clear definition, which makes it as one of the most widely used and familiar subjects of the use of metaphor. The prototypical meanings of various monster figures can be converged on a certain creature of being in this way held out as bizarre, curious, and abnormal. The monster figure that surpasses existing normality is also connected to 'abjection,' such as something that is cast aside from the body such as the bodily functions seen in its associated blood, tears, vomit, excrement, or semen, and so on. Nevertheless, both the monster figure and abjection produce disgust and horror in the minds of ordinary spectators or readers of media using this metaphor to heighten excitement for the viewers. The abject characteristic of the monster figure also has something in common with the posthuman figure, meaning to apply to a category of inhuman others who are held outside of the normal category of human beings. In the similar vein, it is natural that the most typical monster figures in our times are posthuman creatures embodied in such forms as seen with zombies, humanoids, cyborgs, robots, and so on. In short, the monster figure includes all of the creatures and beings that disarray normalized humanist categories and values. The monster narrative, in the same sense, is a type of story that tells about others outside modern, anthropocentric, male-centered, and Westernized categories of thought. It can be argued that a catastrophic narrative, a literary genre which depicts the world where a series of catastrophic events demolish the existing human civilization, ought to be seen as a typical modern-day monster narrative, because it also discounts and criticizes normalized humanist categories and values as is the result of the monster narrative. Going beyond the prevailing humanist realist narrative that are so familiar with existing values, the catastrophic narrative is not only a monster narrative per se, but also a monstrous narrative which disrupts and reinvents currently mainstream narratives and ways of thinking.
