Purpose: The purpose of this study was to estimate dietary folate intake and food sources of children and adolescents using a nutrient database revised based on measured folate in selected foods. Methods: Folate content in 51 foods known as folate sources was measured by microbiological assay after trienzyme extraction. Folate intake was estimated from a part of the data of 'Dietary Intake Survey of Infants, Children and Adolescents in 2007~2008' conducted by the Korea Food and Drug Administration (KFDA) and the Korea Health Industry Development Institute (KHIDI). The study subjects were 567 children aged 1~19 years living in the Chungcheong area who completed two 24-hour recalls. Results: Folate values were revised by replacing the values in the current database with the analyzed values except when the value in the current database was between the analytical values or was not different from the mean analytical value by more than 10%. Among the revised values of 40 food items, folate values of 36 foods were lower than the current values. Mean folate intakes estimated with the revised database were approximately 70~80% lower than those estimated with the current database. Mean folate intakes of males aged 12~14 and females aged 12~19 were lower than the 2010 Recommended Nutrient Intakes (RNIs). Chicken's eggs, Kimchi, rice, mandarin, and laver were found to be main food sources of folate. Conclusion: In this study, mean dietary folate intakes were lower than those estimated with the current database. Further analyses for folate content especially in cooked foods commonly consumed in Korea are needed using a reliable assay in order to accurately assess folate intake of the Korean population. In addition, nutrition education should be provided for adolescent females in order to increase consumption of folate-rich foods.

실용적인 표면영상유속계를 만들기 위해서는 적절한 하드웨어와 소프트웨어로 시스템을 구성해야 한다. 이를 위해서 본 연구에서는 하드웨어로 CCTV를 선택하고, 초음파 수위계를 이용하여 수위를 지속적으로 읽어들이도록 구성하였다. 한편, 소프트웨어적으로는 11변수 투영법을 적용하여 변화하는 수위에 따라 정확한 측정점을 재구성하도록 하고, 아울러 각 측정점에서 주흐름방향으로 정확한 시공간영상을 작성하고, 이 시공간영상(spatio-temporal image)들을 분석하였다. 그결과, 5분 간격으로 촬영된 1분 길이의 영상을 지속적으로 촬영하고 분석하여 유량을 산정하는 표면영상유속계측 시스템을 구축하였다. 본고에서는 이러한 소프트웨어 개선방향중 하나인 주흐름방향의 시공간영상 작성법을 소개한다. 먼저, 11변수 투영법을 이용하여 하천의 표면영상에 대한 좌표변환계수를 산정하였다. 그리고 이 좌표변환계수를 이용하여, 하천의 수위변화에 따라 표면영상내의 측정점이 적절히 수정될 수 있도록 하였다. 그 다음 이 측정점에서 측정횡단면과 수직이 되는 방향을 선정하고, 이 방향이 영상내에서 하천 측정횡단면과 수직인 방향, 즉 주흐름방향이 되도록 하였다. 촬영된 1분간의 동영상의 각 측정점 위치에서 잘라낸 시공간체적(spatio-temporal image volume)에서 주흐름방향의 시공간영상을 잘라내고 이를 상호상관법이나 고속푸리에변환을 이용하여 분석하였다. 이 때 만들어진 시공간영상은 주흐름방향과 정확하게 일치하여, 기존의 표면영상유속계의 문제이던, 일부 측정점의 유속벡터가 주흐름방향과 일치하지 않던 문제를 해결할 수 있었다. 개발된 방법으로 표면영상유속계를 제작하여 인수천에 시험 설치하고 호우 사상에 대해 검토한 결과 정확하고 신속하며 연속적인 유량측정이 가능하였다.

Surfactant enhanced in-situ soil flushing was performed to remediate the soil and groundwater at an oil contaminated site, where had been used as a military vehicle repair area for 40 years. A section from the contaminated site (4.5 m $\times$ 4.5 m $\times$ 6.0 m) was selected for the research, which was composed of heterogeneous sandy and silt-sandy soils with average $K_d$ of 2.0$\times$$10^{-4}$cm/sec. Two percent of sorbitan monooleate (POE 20) and 0.07% of iso-prophyl alcohol were mixed for the surfactant solution and 3 pore volumes of surfactant solution were injected to remove oil from the contaminated section. Four injection wells and two extraction wells were built in the section to flush surfactant solution. Water samples taken from extraction wells and the storage tank were analyzed on a gas-chromatography (GC) for TPH concentration in the effluent with different time. Five pore volumes of solution were extracted while TPH concentration in soil and groundwater at the section were below the Waste Water Discharge Limit (WWDL). The effluent TPH concentration from wells with only water flushing was below 10 ppm. However, the effluent concentration using surfactant solution flushing increased to 1751 ppm, which was more than 170 times compared with the concentration with only water flushing. Total 18.5 kg of oil (TPH) was removed from the soil and groundwater at the section. The concentration of heavy metals in the effluent solution also increased with the increase of TPH concentration, suggesting that the surfactant enhanced in-situ flushing be available to remove not only oil but heavy metals from contaminated sites. The removal efficiency of surfactant enhanced in-situ flushing was investigated at the real contaminated site in Korea. Results suggest that in-situ soil flushing could be a successful process to remediate contaminated sites distributed in Korea.

The purpose of this paper is an optimum design of the shaped Cassegrainian antenna system for the base station. The process of the shaped Cassegrainian antenna design is as follows : 1) the aperture field distribution is determined so as to meet design specifications, 2) a proper design parameter is selected, 3) extracting of the dimension data for the main and sub-reflector antenna To do these, Hansen's distribution is chosen as the aperture field, and the far-field pattern from the aperture is predicted by the angular spectrum. Firstly, the aperture field distribution is designed to satisfy the specification for design frequency, it is confirmed if this distribution meet the specification for another frequency band. The main- and the sub-reflectors are synthesized so as for the given beamwaveguide feed pattern to be transformed into the prescribed aperture distribution. The designed system has circular aperture, left-right symmetry and no tilted structure. The continuous surface functions of reflectors are obtained by adopting the global interpolation technique to the discrete reflector profiles. Jacobi polynomial-sinusoidal is used as the basis function. A Ka-band Cassegrainian antenna operates over 17.7 – 20.2 GHz for down-link band and 27.5 – 30 GHz for up-link band is designed.

The main objective of this study is to develop an optimization algorithm of framed structures with rigid and various semi-rigid connections using the multilevel dynamic programming and the sequential unconstrained minimization techniques (SUMT). The second-order elastic analysis is performed for steel framed structures. The second order elastic analysis is developed based on nonlinear beam-column theory considering the bowing effect. The following semi-rigid connections are considered; double web angle, top-seat angle and top-seat angle with web angle. We considered the three connection models, such as modified exponential, polynomial and three parameter model. The total weight of the structural steel is used as the objective function in the optimization process. The dimensions of steel cross section are selected as the design variables. The design constraints consist of strength requirements for axial, shear and flexural resistance and serviceability requirements.

In this paper a constitutive model for large cracks in concrete and other brittle materials subject to dynamic and cyclic leading is presented. The suggested model is based on the plastic-damage model for cyclic leading. A numerical formulation based on the three-step return-mapping algorithm for the proposed large crack model is also present. The numerical examples show that the present algorithm works appropriately under dynamic leading and should be used in large crack problems to prevent excessive tensive plastic strain development causing unrealistic results.

It is the unavoidable problem that the RMR rock classification method has the uncertainty resulted from uncertain definition of measured value in RMR grade table, hence in this paper, the estimation of probability density function$(p{\cdot}d{\cdot}f)$ graph with the evaluation of continuos RMR and the Monte Carlo Simulation and statistic reasoning were carried out to evaluate the uncertainty quantitatively. Also, the modified RMR rock classification table was presented in order to apply the uncertainty of RMR to the practice, and then the design process of standard support pattern and the tunnel support material was proposed.

This research estimated stream discharges indirectly by hydraulic channel routing. Only stage data from three stage stations and river cross section data were used to estimate Manning roughness coefficients and to compute stream discharges. When the discharges were estimated a stage-stage set of conditions was used for upstream-downstream boundary conditions. The research used the data from the upper Mississippi River. The hydraulic channel routings were performed by DWOPER (operational dynamic wave model). The global optimization program of SCE-UA was used to improve the roughness coefficient estimation module of the modified Newton-Raphson method in DWOPER. The results from SCE-US were better. For the case study of a flood, most estimated discharges except a few show errors within 10%.

Since the invention of the integrated circuit (IC) in 1950s, semiconductor technology has undergone dramatic development up to these days. A complete semiconductor is manufactured through a diversity of processes. For better semiconductor productivity, fault detection and classification (FDC) has been rigorously studied for finding faults even before the processes are completed. For FDC, various kinds of sensors are attached in many semiconductor manufacturing devices, and sensor values are collected in a periodic manner. The collection of sensor values consists of sequences of real numbers, and hence is regarded as a kind of time-series data. In this paper, we propose an algorithm for detecting and clustering faults in semiconductor processes. The proposed algorithm is a modification of the existing anomaly detection algorithm dealing with symbolically-represented time-series. The contributions of this paper are: (1) showing that a modification of the existing anomaly detection algorithm dealing with general time-series could be used for semiconductor process data and (2) presenting experimental results for improving correctness of fault detection and clustering. As a result of our experiment, the proposed algorithm caused neither false positive nor false negative.
