The effect of aging on the optoelectronic properties of a single ZnO nanowire is investigated in this study. The photoluminescence (PL), photocurrent spectrum, current-voltage characteristics, and photoresponse were measured for the as-grown ZnO nanowire and for the same nanowire exposed to air for three months. For the aged nanowire, the broad PL band is weaker, the intensity of the photocurrent is strengthened, and the photoresponse is slower, compared with the as-grown nanowire. It Is suggested in this paper that the observed aging effect on the PL is due to the reduction in the number of oxygen vacancies within the nanowire and that the aging effect on the photocurrent and photoresponse originates from the formation of oxygen vacancies near the surface.

Aging is one of the major tasks that our country should resolve. To deal with aging problems, many countries have introduced various new concepts such as active aging, productive aging, and successful aging, well aging and anti-aging. This study suggests a new concept, digital aging, to tackle aging problems, and we use this concept to explore the new policy and policy areas for aged people. Since this concept is not well defined yet, this article focuses reviewing existing research literature. Instead of focusing the negative aspect of aging, this study investigates how to use the digital technology to build such images that the old man can be continuously learning, active and productive.

Plasma source ion implantation (PSII) technique was utilized to improve the wettability of polystyrene surfaces. It is well known that treated surfaces undergo aging, leading to hydrophobic recovery with time. We investigated the aging effect of polystyrene thin film on the various molecular weights. Polystyrenes with several molecular weights ($M_w$ = 760, 2430, 31600, 115700, 280000, 903600) were treated in different experimental conditions including gas species and pulse energy, and their hydrophilicity was measured by contact angle goniometer. To study wettability decay as a function of the molecular weight, PSII-treated samples were aged at different temperatures. Hydrophobic recovery of high molecular weight polystyrene was much slower than that of low molecular weight, even at high temperatures. The methods used to characterize treated surfaces were water contact angle measurement, TOF-SIMS, XPS, SEM and AFM.

In this paper, the effects of solder joint aging on the reliability of embedded package solder joints were investigated using numerical analysis by finite element method. Solder joints were SAC305 with aging time 0, 60, 180 days. For reliability analysis, warpage of package and equivalent creep strain (ECS) and total strain energy density (TSED) of solder joint were analyzed. The analysis results show that the package warpage is decreased in the case of the embedded package compared to the non embedded package, and the reliability life of the solder joint is predicted to be high. Also, it was interpreted that the longer the aging time, the less the warpage of the embedded package, but the reliability life of the solder joint would be shortened.

Tw types of Pb(Mn$\sub$1/3/Nb$\sub$2/3/)O$_3$+PZT Ceramics had been fabricated by hot-pressing method. One had cause grain and the other had fine grain doe to Cr$_2$O$_3$ addition. These specimen were poled by applying the DC electric field in various steps. The effects of thermal aging on their piezoelectric characteristics and temperature stability of the frequency were investigated.

For increase of recycling rate of steel-making slag, the swine wastewater treatment using steel-making slag as filter media were investigated. As the discharged wastewater from the existing facilities retreated through the laboratory wastewater treatment equipment filled with steel-making slag as filter, pH of retreated wastewater was increased, and the concentration of N, P, COD and BOD were decreased. For the pilot experiment, steel-making slag eliminated suspended substances and absorbed a shock of sudden change of their concentration in influent. COD and BOD were decreased under the influence of them in influent. As calcination increased the amount of free-CaO in steel-making slag, the calcined eliminated phosphorus more effectively and increase pH than the uncalcined.

독자-필자 문제(readers-writers problem)를 위한 기존의 스케쥴링 정책들은 대부분 독자나 필자 중 어느 한 쪽에 편향된 처리 성향을 가지고 있기 때문에 응답 시간이나 처리량, 둘 중 하나의 성능이 상당히 좋지 않은 특성이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제를 개선하고자 새로룬 동적 스케쥴링 정책인 CAP(Counter-based Adaptive Priority)을 제안한다. CAP은 동시에 수행될 수 없는 필자에게 가중치를 주는 기법과 소수의 독자를 무작정 지연시키는 것을 막기 위한 에이징(aging) 기법을 동적으로 결합하여 사용하고 있다. CAP은 기는(starvation) 문제를 가지고 있지 않으며 주어진 상황에 동적으로 대응하는 능력을 가지고 있기 때문에 처리량과 응답 시간 모두 FCFS에 비하여 더 우수하다. 제안된 정책에 대한 효과성을 입증하기 위하여 세마포어 기반의 해법을 제시하고 사건-기반 시뮬레이션을 사용하여 기존의 정책들과 성능을 비교하였다.

배수성과 인장강성을 가지는 복합 보강재를 사용하여 보강한 포화점성토의 거동에 선행하중이 미치는 영향을 조사하기위하여 평면변형을 시험을 수행하였다. 보강하지 않은 공시체와 보강한 공시체에 대하여 이방압밀(K=0.3, σ3'=50kPa)을 실시하고 비배수 및 배수전단시험을 일정변형율 속도를 실시하였다. 선행하중을 가한 시험의 경우는 이방압밀후 소정의 선행하중을 가하여 크리이프, 제하, 에이징 후에 비배수 전단시험을 실시하였다. 시험결과 분석한 결과 포화전성성토와 같이 연약한 토질이라도 다짐을 잘하고 보강토의 큰 배수압툭강도를 이용하여 큰 배수압축강도를 이용하여 큰 선행하중을 가하여 과압밀 상태로 함으로써 비배수 전단시에 큰 초기강성을 가지는 것을 알수 있었다. 즉, 점성토의 보강토의 경우 보강에 의한 배수강도의 증가는 큰 선행하중을 가하기 위하여 사용하는 것이 가장 효율적인 것으로 판단된다.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate and verify the effectiveness of sustainable cosmetic raw materials developed from Gynostemma pentaphyllum, a plant native to Ulleungdo, in improving the skin barrier function and treating atopic dermatitis. Cells were derived from adult Gynostemma pentaphyllum plants, and suitable conditions for mass culture of the cells were established in a bioreactor. DNA components and amino acids extracted from this mass culture were identified from the HPLC fraction. In the in vitro efficacy evaluation results, changes in the expression levels of skin barrier-related proteins such as filaggrin (FLG) and Zonula occludens-1 (Zo-1) were insignificant. It was confirmed that the expression levels of the proteins thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) and interleukin-33 (IL-33) were significantly reduced. These results lead to the conclusion that Gynostemma pentaphyllum cell extracts have significant anti-inflammatory effects and that these extracts can be widely used as sustainable, nature-friendly active material in cosmetics with anti-inflammatory effects and targeted at improving atopic dermatitis.They may find use in anti-aging cosmetic products as well.
