This study focuses on enhancing the understanding of the form and characteristics of traditional towers, or 'pagodas,' by utilizing WebXR technology to enable users to explore 3D models and experience them in virtual reality on the web. Traditional towers in Korea pose challenges for direct on-site verification due to their size, making it difficult to examine the structure and features of each level. To address these issues, this research aims to provide users with a WebXR service that allows them to remotely explore and analyze towers without geographical or temporal constraints. The research methodology involves utilizing WebAR to offer a web-based service where users can directly view the original form of the tower's 3D model using smart devices both online and on-site. However, outdoor conditions may affect performance, and to address this, a tower-outline detection and matching technique was employed. Consequently, we propose a remote support service for traditional towers, allowing users to remotely access information and features of various towers nationwide on the web. Meanwhile, on-site visits can involve experiencing augmented reality representations of towers using smart devices.

Optical satellite images are being used for national security and collection of information, and their utilization is increasing. However, it acquires low-quality images that are not suitable for the user's requirement due to weather conditions and time constraints. In this paper, a deep learning-based conversion of image and colorization model referring to high-resolution SAR images was created to simulate the occluded area with clouds of optical satellite images. The model was experimented according to the type of algorithm applied and input data, and each simulated images was compared and analyzed. In particular, the amount of pixel value information between the input black-and-white image and the SAR image was similarly constructed to overcome the problem caused by the relatively lack of color information. As a result of the experiment, the histogram distribution of the simulated image learned with the Gray-scale image and the high-resolution SAR image was relatively similar to the original image. In addition, the RMSE value was about 6.9827 and the PSNR value was about 31.3960 calculated for quantitative analysis.

This study examines whether and how ages of child affect accessibility experiences of women and men differently. Space-time accessibility measures based on Time-geographic framework with activity-travel diary datasets in Portland Metro, US were calculated using GIS-based geocomputation, and spatial-temporal patterns of accessibility of dual-earner couples by ages of their youngest child were compared. The results are as follows. (1) Although more women than men work part-time, which would render women more spatial-temporal autonomy, accessibility levels of women are not higher than men's. It implies that there exists another constraint placed on women which largely stems from gender inequality. (2) It is distinctively women with child under age 6 of which accessibility spaces are found to be restricted doser to home compared to men. Women with no child or with child aged over 6, however, show more or less similar spatial-temporal patterns of accessibility with men's which are quite unvarying regardless of parental status and their child age. Women's accessibility experiences characterized by spatial-temporal entrapment, thus, can be seen as problems associated with gender rather than sex. (3) Intensified spatial-temporal entrapment of women with young child are associated with the significant spatial pegs shaping their accessibility spaces, which are located much closer to home compared to men's: workplaces and child's daycare centers.

기존의 디스플레이 기슬은 마스크를 통해 특정 부분에만 유기재료를 증착시키는 방법을 사용하였으나, 기판의 크기가 커짐에 따라 공정조건에 제약이 발생하였다. 이를 해결하기 위해 최근 용액 공정에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 용액 공정은 기존 진공 증착 방식과 비교하였을 때 상온, 대기압에서 증착이 가능하며 경제적이고, 대면적 균일 증착에 유리하다는 장점이 있다. 반면, 용액 공정으로 제작한 소자는 시간이 지남에 따라 점차 전기적 특성이 변하는 aging effect를 보인다. Aging effect는 용액에 포함된 C기와 OH기 기반의 불순물의 영향으로 시간의 경과에 따라서 문턱전압, subthreshold swing 및 mobility 등의 전기적 특성이 변하는 현상으로 고품질의 박막을 형성하기 위해서는 고온의 열처리가 필요하다. 지금까지 고품질 박막 형성을 위한 열처리는 퍼니스 (furnace) 장비에서 주로 이루어졌는데, 시간이 오래 걸리고, 상대적으로 고온 공정이기 때문에 유리, 종이, 플라스틱과 같은 다양한 기판에 적용하기 어렵다는 단점이 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 $100^{\circ}C$ 이하의 저온에서도 열처리가 가능한 microwave irradiation (MWI) 방법을 이용하여 solution-processed InGaZnO TFT를 제작하였고, 기존의 열처리 방식인 furnace로 열처리한 TFT 소자와 aging effect를 비교하였다. 먼저, solution-processed IGZO TFT를 제작하기 위해 p type Si 기판을 열산화시켜서 100 nm의 SiO2 게이트 산화막을 성장시켰고, 스핀코팅 방법으로 a-IGZO 채널층을 형성하였다. 증착후 열처리를 위하여 1000 W의 마이크로웨이브 출력으로 15분간 MWI를 실시하여 a-IGZO TFT를 제작하였고, 비교를 위하여 furnace N2 gas 분위기에서 $600^{\circ}C$로 30분간 열처리한 TFT를 준비하였다. 제작된 직후의 TFT 특성을 평가한 결과, MWI 열처리한 소자가 퍼니스 열처리한 소자보다 높은 이동도, 낮은 subthreshold swing (SS)과 히스테리시스 전압을 가지는 것을 확인하였다. 한편, aging effect를 평가하기 위하여 제작 후에 30일 동안의 특성변화를 측정한 결과, MWI 열처리 소자는 30일 동안 문턱치 전압(VTH)의 변화량 ${\Delta}VTH=3.18[V]$ 변화되었지만, furnace 열처리 소자는 ${\Delta}VTH=8.56[V]$로 큰 변화가 있었다. 다음으로 SS의 변화량은 MWI 열처리 소자가 ${\Delta}SS=106.85[mV/dec]$인 반면에 퍼니스 열처리 소자는 ${\Delta}SS=299.2[mV/dec]$이었다. 그리고 전하 트래핑에 의해서 발생하는 게이트 히스테리시스 전압의 변화량은 MWI 열처리 소자에서 ${\Delta}V=0.5[V]$이었지만, 퍼니스 열처리 소자에서 ${\Delta}V=5.8[V]$의 큰 수치를 보였다. 결과적으로 MWI 열처리 방식이 퍼니스 열처리 방식보다 소자의 성능이 우수할 뿐만 아니라 aging effect가 개선된 것을 확인할 수 있었고 차세대 디스플레이 공정에 있어서 전기적, 화학적 특성을 개선하는데 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

This study proposed a new optimization-based decision model for an enterprise resource planning and production scheduling of a pharmaceutical intermediates manufacturing plant. To do this work, we first define the inflow and outflow information as well as the model structure, and develop an optimization model to minimize the production time (i.e., makespan) using a mixed integer linear programing (MILP). The unique feature of the proposed model is that the optimal process scheduling is established based on real-time resource logistics information using a radio frequency identification (RFID) technology, thereby theoretically requiring no material inventories. essential information for process operation, such as the required amount of raw materials and estimated arrival timing to manufacturing plant, is used as logistics constraints in the optimization model to yield the optimal manufacturing scheduling to satisfy final production demands. We illustrated the capability of the proposed decision model by applying the optimization model to two scheduling problems in a real pharmaceutical intermediates manufacturing process. As a result, the optimal production schedule and raw materials order timing were identified to minimize the makespan while satisfying all the product demands.

This study was conducted to identify the optimal lotion manufacturing conditions with decursin and decursinol angelate of Angelica gigas Nakai extraction. Lotion was confirmed that it had viscosity (5,208±112 cPs), assay (99.71±1.01%), and pH (5.62) for 3 months. The optimization of manufacturing conditions of mixing 4 for lotion formulation were made by 22+3 full factorial design. Mixing temperature (40-80℃) and mixing time (10-30 min) were used as independent variables with three responses(assay, pH, and weight variation) as critical quality attributes (CQAs). The model for assay and weight variation identified a proper fit having a determination coefficient of the regression equation (about 0.9) and a p-value less than 0.05. Estimated conditions for the optimal manufacturing process of lotion were 61.93℃ in mixing temperature and 15.85 min in mixing time. Predicted values at the mixing temperature (60℃) and mixing time (20 min) were 100.69% of assay, 5.57 of pH, and 98.07% of weight variation. In the verification of the actual measurement the obtained values showed 100.29±0.98% of assay, 5.57±0.02 of pH, and 98.27±0.89% of weight variation, respectively, in good agreement with predicted values.

Practical models for FPGA architectures which include performance- and/or density-enhancing components such as carry chains, wide function multiplexers, and memory/multiplier blocks are being applied to academic FPGA placement tools which used to rely on simple imaginary models. Previously the techniques such as pre-packing and multi-layer density analysis are proposed to remedy issues related to such practical models, and the wire length is effectively minimized during initial analytic placement. Since timing should be optimized rather than wire length, most previous work takes into account the timing constraints. However, instead of the initial analytic placement, the timing-driven techniques are mostly applied to subsequent steps such as placement legalization and iterative improvement. This paper incorporates the timing driven techniques, which check if the placement meets the timing constraints given in the standard SDC format, and minimize the detected violations, with the existing analytic placer which implements pre-packing and multi-layer density analysis. First of all, a static timing analyzer has been used to check the timing of the wire-length minimized placement results. In order to minimize the detected violations, a function to minimize the largest arrival time at end points is added to the objective function of the analytic placer. Since each clock has a different period, the function is proposed to be evaluated for each clock, and added to the objective function. Since this function can unnecessarily reduce the unviolated paths, a new function which calculates and minimizes the largest negative slack at end points is also proposed, and compared. Since the existing legalization which is non-timing driven is used before the timing analysis, any improvement on timing is entirely due to the functions added to the objective function. The experiments on twelve industrial examples show that the minimum arrival time function improves the worst negative slack by 15% on average whereas the minimum worst negative slack function improves the negative slacks by additional 6% on average.

In Korea, there have been various methods of estimating groundwater recharge which generally can be subdivided into three types: baseflow separation method by means of groundwater recession curve, water budget analysis based on lumped conceptual model in watershed, and water table fluctuation method (WTF) by using the data from groundwater monitoring wells. However, groundwater recharge rate shows the spatial-temporal variability due to climatic condition, land use and hydrogeological heterogeneity, so these methods have various limits to deal with these characteristics. To overcome these limitations, we present a new method of estimating recharge based on water balance components from the SWAT-MODFLOW which is an integrated surface-ground water model. Groundwater levels in the interest area close to the stream have dynamics similar to stream flow, whereas levels further upslope respond to precipitation with a delay. As these behaviours are related to the physical process of recharge, it is needed to account for the time delay in aquifer recharge once the water exits the soil profile to represent these features. In SWAT, a single linear reservoir storage module with an exponential decay weighting function is used to compute the recharge from soil to aquifer on a given day. However, this module has some limitations expressing recharge variation when the delay time is too long and transient recharge trend does not match to the groundwater table time series, the multi-reservoir storage routing module which represents more realistic time delay through vadose zone is newly suggested in this study. In this module, the parameter related to the delay time should be optimized by checking the correlation between simulated recharge and observed groundwater levels. The final step of this procedure is to compare simulated groundwater table with observed one as well as to compare simulated watershed runoff with observed one. This method is applied to Mihocheon watershed in Korea for the purpose of testing the procedure of proper estimation of spatio-temporal groundwater recharge distribution. As the newly suggested method of estimating recharge has the advantages of effectiveness of watershed model as well as the accuracy of WTF method, the estimated daily recharge rate would be an advanced quantity reflecting the heterogeneity of hydrogeology, climatic condition, land use as well as physical behaviour of water in soil layers and aquifers.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of bisphosphonate and indomethacin, blockers of bone resorption with different mechanisms, on alveolar bone remodeling. Male rats were divided into control, bisphosphonate and indomethacin groups, and then each group was divided info an experimental side and a control side according to the force application. Bisphosphonate(6.3mg/kg,$2.52x10^{-2}mol/L$) and indomethacin (9mg/kg, $2.52x10^{-2}mol/L$) were injected 6 hours and 1 hour before or 24 hours after the force application. The rats were killed 72 hours after the force application and histologic examination was perfomed. The values of serum acid phosphatase and lactate dehydrogenase were also measured in the control md experimental groups treated with bisphosphonate or indomethacin 1 hour before the force application. In the experimental side, the least number of osteoclasts was noted in the groups treated 1 hour before the force application with indomethacin or bisphosphonate, while there were no differences between the control and the groups treated with drugs 6 hours before or 24 hours after the force application. In the control side, the number of osteoclasts was not inecreased with no differences among the groups. Histologic examination revealed a severe alveolar bone resorption in the control group and the groups treated with indomethacin 6 hours before or 24 hours after the force application. Indomethacin treatment 1 hour before the force application and bisphosphonate treatment at any time significantly attenuated the bone resorption. Electron microscopically, ruffled border and clear zone of osteoclasts were observed in the control and indomethacin groups, while some osteoclasts were detached from the bone surface and exhibited dull cellular projections in the bisphosphonate groups. The bisphosphonate and indomethacin groups showed lower values of acid phosphatase and lactate dehydrogenase than the control group. The acid phosphatase value in the bisphosphonate group was lower than that in the indomethacin group, whereas there was no difference in the lactate dehydrogenase value between the groups. These results suggest that bisphosphonate reduces the activity of osteoclasts as well as the number of osteoclasts and that indomethacin reduces the number of osteoclasts without affecting the activity of osteoclasts. Bisphosphonate has a larger inhibitory effect on bone resorption md thus less limitation in the application time than indomethacin.

Turmeric is a medicinal herb with various pharmacological activities. Curcumin, demethoxycurcumin(DMC) and bisdemethoxycurcumin(BDMC) were extracted from turmeric by dipping and ultrasonic wave method. And extraction efficiency was identified using solid phase extraction(SPE). The extracted sample were simultaneously separated and analyzed from three kinds of commercial $C_{18}$ reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography using water and acetonitrile as mobile phase with isocratic elution mode. Flow rate 1.0mL/min, injection volume $10{\mu}L$ and column oven temperature $40^{\circ}C$ at 425nm wavelength has been conducted. From the experimental results, the optimum mobile phase composition of water/acetonitrile 50/50vol% using RS tech column. It is evident that the amount of curcuminoids extracted(extraction time 4h) by 100% MeOH was higher than any aqueous MeOH composition. Finally, in 100% water extraction, the amount(mAU${\times}$mim) of curcuminoids extracted by SPE was 14.3 and 24.5 times respectively higher than ultrasonic wave and dipping method. The shown results can be applied as sources for pharmaceuticals and functional material.
