국내에서는 기후변화로 인해 집중호우 및 태풍 발생이 증가하고 있으며, 이는 자연재해의 발생뿐만 아니라 차량 및 항공 운항의 어려움을 야기한다. 차량 및 항공 운항의 안정성 확보를 위해서는 노면의 마찰저항을 유지하는 것이 중요한데, 강수로 인해 형성되는 수막두께는 노면의 마찰저항을 감소시키므로 포장설계시 고려해야 할 주요소이다. 특히, 물적/인적 이동이 많은 공항은 기상조건에 더욱 취약하며, 기후변화로 인한 강수특성 변화로 활주로의 수막두께 증가 및 운항의 차질이 우려되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 과거 및 미래 강우조건에 따라 활주로 노면의 수막두께를 산정하고, 기후변화에 따른 수막두께의 변화를 평가하고자 한다. 과거 관측 및 기후변화 시나리오를 이용하여 강우자료를 생산하였고, 이를 강우-유출 모형의 강우 입력 자료로 활용하였다. 과거 강우자료는 인천지점의 기상청 관측자료를 수집하였으며, AR5 RCP 시나리오(RCP4.5, RCP8.5) 기반의 적정 GCMs 결과를 활용하여 미래 강우시나리오를 산정하였다. 강우의 재현기간 및 지속시간에 따른 수막두께의 변화를 분석하기 위해 인천지역의 과거 및 미래 확률강우량을 산정하였다. 수막두께를 산정하기 위해 활주로 폭, 경사 등 활주로 제원을 수집하고, 유출 모형의 입력자료를 구축하였다. 과거 및 미래 확률강우량을 SWMM 모형에 적용하여 유출량을 산정하였으며, 유속과 흐름폭으로 나누어 활주로의 수막두께를 산정하였다. 산정결과, 강우량이 증가함에 따라 수막두께는 증가하고, 강우의 지속시간이 증가함에 따라서는 감소하는 것으로 분석되었다. 미래의 경우, 기후변화의 영향에 따라 강수량이 증가하여 수막두께가 과거에 비해 증가하였다.

Purpose : We investigated the causative organisms of bacterial meningitis by age distribution from 1996 to 2005. Methods : Retrospective data were obtained from the medical records with diagnosis of bacterial meningitis or neonatal meningitis from 1996 through 2005. A case was defined by isolation of organism or detection of its antigen by latex agglutination from cerebrospinal fluid. Results : A total of 46 cases(27 neonates and 19 children) were identified. 15 of 27 episodes(55.6%) of neonatal meningitis had a concomitant-positive blood culture. Group B streptococci were the most common bacterial causes of neonatal meningitis(44.4%). Nine of 12 episodes(75.0%) were late-onset infections in neonatal meningitis caused by group B streptococci. 16 of 19 children(84.2%) with bacterial meningitis beyond the neonatal period were younger than 5 years of age(median age, 23 months). Of 19 cases, 8 infections were with Streptococcus pneumoniae, 8 were with Haemophilus influenzae and 3 were with Neisseria meningitidis. Since 2001 there was no case of meningococcal meningitis in this study. Conclusion : In neonates group B streptococci are the most common causative organisms of bacterial meningitis, especially late-onset infections. In infants and young children, the predominant causes of bacterial meningitis are H. influenzae and S. pneumoniae; meningitis caused by the former are likely to decrease after the introduction of the conjugate vaccine for H. influenzae type b.

There are two forms of cryptococcal meningitis immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (CM-IRIS): paradoxical CM-IRIS and unmasking CM-IRIS. It is important to distinguish paradoxical CM-IRIS and CM relapse because mortality of CM-IRIS is higher than that of CM without IRIS, and paradoxical CM-IRIS and CM relapse requires different treatment. We report a case of paradoxical CM-IRIS that well matches the clinical findings with MR findings during three years follow-up of a HIV infected patient and new MRI finding is also introduced to help distinguish them.

Purpose : The headache, one of the symptoms of meningitis, is related to abrupt elevation of intracranial pressure(ICP) or stimulation of intracranial nociceptive structure. However, in cases of mild elevation of ICP or normal findings of cerebrospinal fluid(CSF) analysis, patients sometimes complain of headaches. Therefore, other pathways may contribute to the occurrence of headaches in aseptic meningitis or meningismus. We intend to investigate the role of substance P(SP) and calcitonin gene-related peptide(CGRP) in aseptic meningitis or meningismus. Methods : We measured leukocyte count, the concentration of protein and glucose in CSF and ICP of patients with meningeal irritation sign. We also measured SP and CGRP levels by using immunoassay. We analyzed the relationship between the presence of headache and the value of SP and CGRP. Results : The concentrations of CGRP($18.8{\pm}10.5ng/mL$) in CSF and ICP($14.8{\pm}4.5cmH_2O$) in aseptic meningitis group were significantly higher than in those($14.1{\pm}7.4ng/mL$ and $12.0{\pm}5.1cmH_2O$, respectively) of the meningismus group(P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the SP levels between the two groups. In the aseptic meningitis group, the concentrations of SP and CGRP were significantly higher in the normal ICP group than in the elevated ICP group(P<0.05). Conclusion : Headaches in children with aseptic meningitis or meningismus is considered to be related to the elevation of the CSF levels of SP and CGRP.

This research focuses on analysis of a interaction fracture of various glasses due to contact of water sprayed curtain on hot glass surface with high temperature produced from convective heat source near glass wall. A large scaled experimental test was done in order to find the range of the glass surface temperature to be able to cause the breakage of the glasses when water droplets reach on the hot surface. This paper shows the allowable temperature of the glass surface for prevention of the cooling down breakage before water curtain droplets contact the surface. Allowable Temperature if $250^{\circ}C$ for the tempered glass but general glass is very relatively low. Therefore if the water curtain spray system was adequately activated by a thermal detector installed below ceiling adjacent glass wall with water curtain nozzle system, all hot glass would not break out by cooling water droplet's contact on the hot surface due to convective heat released by adjacent fire source near the glass wall.

In order practically to use fire-defective glazing materials for the compartment wall where a fire-protection rating is mandated, there have been many trials internationally, This research focuses on a feasibility that, if certain water film covered all surface of glass, the glazing system can endure without breaking out under the compartment fire. First of all, a water film spray system was specially designed to wet the entire surface of the glass and also to have tiny small amount of water rebounded from the surface after emitted from nozzles. After this system has proven to have perfect performance, small-scale tests were done to find out if the water film covered glazing system react to the high temperature curve in a small furnace room. Finally, on basis of the obtained data, full-scale experiments were done so that water-film covered glazing system can pass the Korean Standard (KS) test for fire resistance, KS F2257.

We evaluated the results of pumping tests, the amount of groundwater used by Protected Cultivation with Water Curtain (PCWC), and monthly depth to water table (DTW) at the Wangjeon-ri area, Nonsan City, to elucidate the cause of a decrease in pumping rate during the winter PCWC season. The transmissivity and storage coefficient at eight sites where the major aquifer is alluvium, vary from 119.9 to $388.1m^2/d$ and $1.5{\times}10^{-4}$ to $5.5{\times}10^{-4}$, respectively. The pumping rate for PCWC during three months (Dec. to Feb.) averaged about $8,100m^3/d$ and the maximum water level in the area varied by about 10 m. Groundwater levels had fully recovered by August-five months after pumping for PCWC had ceased. These observations indicate that the pumping rate during the winter PCWC season was excessive compared with groundwater productivity in the area. Groundwater level in the central PCWC area varied from -3.0 to 4.38 m, exceeding the water level of the Nosung Stream for only three months (Aug. to Oct.). This result indicates that Nosung Stream recharges the area during the period from November to July. To solve the problem of reduced pumping rate during the winter PCWC season, it would be necessary to reduce the amount of groundwater used for PCWC or to develop an artificial recharge system using recycled groundwater.

One of problems related with water curtain cultivation (WCC) in Korea includes severe declination of groundwater levels during the peak season, and it is likely that the problem can be resolved efficiently when the connection characteristics between groundwater and stream are well understood. This study examined temperature, and oxygen/hydrogen stable isotopic compositions of the flowing groundwater to understand the connection between stream and ground water, and the influence of stream water on the nearby aquifer. This study was performed in Wangjeon-ri (Kwangseok-myon, Nonsan City), the well-known strawberry town using WCC technique. The sampling was done during February 2010 through June 2011 for both groundwaters and nearby streams. Temperature distribution pattern indicates that stream widely affected groundwater in the right part of WCC ara. In the left part, the influence of stream seems to occur narrowly near the stream. The similar phenomenon is reflected in the oxygen and hydrogen isotopic data.

본 연구는 산림 공간에서 산불소화시설인 수관수막타워의 방수시간에 따른 화재에 미치는 영향을 FDS(Fire Dynamics Simulator, 화재시뮬레이션)로 비교하였다. 본 연구를 진행하기 위한 기본 조건은 수관수막타워 높이 20m, 방수길이 40m, 방수량 400Lpm으로 해석공간 상에 수막타워를 3기 설치하였다. 수관수막타워 작동 초반 화재온도 $668.5^{\circ}C$에서 작동 450초 후 $145.6^{\circ}C$으로 감소되는 효과를 볼 수 있다. 이는 '산불소화시설 설치 및 운영 관리 지침'의 제3조 11절 6항의 '수관수막설비는 산불 접근 예상시간보다 10분전에 가동되도록 해야 한다.'의 타당성을 마련할 수 있다.
