바이오매스는 유망한 신재생 에너지이다. 바이오매스는 액체 및 기체 연료로 전 환 할 수 있고, 다양한 공정을 통해 열 및 전력을 생산시키는데 사용된다. 바이오매스 가스화 공정은 바이오매스를 일산화탄소, 이산화탄소, 수소 및 메탄으로 이루어진 합성 가스로 전환시키는 기술이다. 바이오매스를 이용한 합성 가스 생산 및 활용은 세계적으로 늘어나는 에너지 필요성을 충족시킬 수 있는 대체에너지이다. 현재, 바이오매스 가스화의 주요 원료는 목질계 우드 칩을 주로 사용하고 있지만, 일반적으로 우드칩의 경우 수분을 다량 함유하고 있기 때문에 가스화 공정을 위해서는 별도의 건조처리를 필요로 한다. 우드칩의 건조에는 많은 에너지가 소요되고, 다량의 우드칩 건조에는 시간과 기상 및 공간적인 환경에 영향을 받는다. 본 연구에서는 미건조 우드칩의 가스화 공정을 위하여 미건조 우드칩에 숯을 각각 10, 30, 50 % 비율로 혼합하여 실험을 수행하였고, 실험결과 생산된 합성가스의 CO 농도 는 숯의 비율에 따라 14.9 ~ 25.6 % 증가되는 경향을 나타내었지만, 반대로 $CO_2$ 및 $CH_4$ 농도는 감소하였다. 이에 따라 합성가스 생산을 위한 미건조 우드칩과 숯의 최적혼합비율은 약 30 %로 판단되며, 발열량은 $1285.7kcal/Nm^3$, Gas yield는 $2.3Nm^3/kg$ 로 나타났다. 이에 적절한 숯의 혼합사용은 미건조 우드칩의 직접적인 가스화에 도움이 될 것으로 사료되며, 바이오매스 건조 공정에 필요한 에너지를 절약할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

This paper proposes a camera motion estimation technique using special relations of motion vectors of geometrically symmetrical triple points of two consecutive views of single camera. The proposed technique uses camera-induced motion vectors and their relations other than feature points and epioplar constraints. As contrast to the time consuming iterations or numerical methods in the calculation of E-matrix or F-matrix induced by epipolar constraints, the proposed technique calculates camera motion parameters such as panning, tilting, rolling, and zooming at once by applying the proposed linear equation sets to the motion vectors. And by devised background discriminants, it effectively reflects only the background region into the calculation of motion parameters, thus making the calculation more accurate and fast enough to accommodate MPEG-4 requirements. Experimental results on various types of sequences show the validity and the broad applicability of the proposed technique.

Semiquantitative mineralogical analysis of clays in soils was performed to understand the distribution of clay minerals in relation to bedrock lithology on the northern basin of the Nakdong River. The soils developed on the granitic bedrocks have high contents of kaolinite and smectite. mite was the major clay mineral in the soils from sedimentary bedrocks, with minor kaolinite, smectite, and intergrade (interstratified chlorite-smectite or hydroxy-interlayed vermiculite) clay minerals. Illite and kaolinite contents of the soils from metamorphic and volcanic bedrocks fall between those of the soils from the granitic bedrocks and those of the soils from the sedimentary bedrocks. The clay mineralogy of the soils depends on the compositions of bedrock minerals and their susceptibility to chemical weathering. The weathering of plagioclase resulted in the high kaolinite content of the soils derived from granitic bedrocks, while the soils derived from sedimentary bedrocks are abundant in residual illite.

UTIS(Urban Traffic Information System) directly collects link travel time in urban area by using probe vehicles. Therefore it can estimate more accurate link travel speed compared to other traffic detection systems. However, UTIS includes some missing data caused by the lack of probe vehicles and RSEs on road network, system failures, and other factors. In this study, we suggest a new model, based on k-NN algorithm, for imputing missing data to provide more accurate travel time information. New imputation model is an adaptive k-NN which can flexibly adjust the number of nearest neighbors(NN) depending on the distribution of candidate objects. The evaluation result indicates that the new model successfully imputed missing speed data and significantly reduced the imputation error as compared with other models(ARIMA and etc). We have a plan to use the new imputation model improving traffic information service by applying UTIS Central Traffic Information Center.

Copolyimides were synthesized from bis (3-aminophenyl) sulfone (APS) and 4,4'-(hexafluoroisopropylidene)diphthalic anhydride (6FDA) containing a fluorine substituent ($-CF_3$) with different mole ratios of 3,3',4,4'-diphenylsulfonetetracarboxylic dianhydride (DSDA) containing a sulfone group (-$SO_2$-). The PI films were obtained from poly (amic acid) (PAA) by solution casting through thermal imidization on a glass plate. Wide-angle X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), universal tensile machine (UTM) measurements, and UV-Vis spectrometry were used to assess thermo-mechanical properties, morphology, and optical transparency. Thermal properties and optical transparency decreased with increasing DSDA mole fraction. In contrast, mechanical properties increased with increasing DSDA mole fraction. As compared to conventional PI films, however, the PI copolymer films in this work were found to exhibit better optical transparency.

For producing a high added-value natural seasoning ingredient, a yeast extract (Yx) was supplemented with a rice protein residue fermented with Bacillus licheniformis (Rfl) or with Bacillus subtilis (Rfs). A rice protein residue was obtained after enzymatic hydrolysis of rice protein which was used for preparing a yeast culture medium. Overall acceptabilities of the supplemented yeast extracts (YxRfl or YxRfs) were higher compared to pure yeast extract. Savory taste like umami was found to increase noticeably by adding a fermented rice protein residue to yeast extract, which was confirmed in taste sensor analysis and in sensory test. Beyond the presence of savory tasting amino acids such as Glu and Asp in a fermented rice protein residue, it is assumed that other soluble peptide fractions remained play an important role in enhancing taste of the supplemented yeast extracts. Thus, the yeast extract added with a fermented rice protein residue could be applied to manufacture a natural seasoning ingredient.

The stochastic volatility (SV) model is one of the main methods of modeling time-varying volatility. In particular, SV model is actively used in estimation and prediction of financial market volatility and option pricing. This paper attempts to model the time-varying volatility of the bitcoin market price using SV model. Hidden Markov model (HMM) is combined with the SV model to capture characteristics of regime switching of the market. The HMM is useful for recognizing patterns of time series to divide the regime of market volatility. This study estimated the volatility of bitcoin by using data from Upbit, a cryptocurrency trading site, and analyzed it by dividing the volatility regime of the market to improve the performance of the SV model. The MCMC technique is used to estimate the parameters of the SV model, and the performance of the model is verified through evaluation criteria such as MAPE and MSE.

C_f/SiC composites have low density, high mechanical strength, and good thermal stability, making them promising materials for high-temperature applications such as rocket propulsion and military fields. However, the remaining Si deteriorates physical and thermal properties. In this paper, the de-siliconization was introduced as a method to remove the Si of the C_f/SiC composite fabricated through Liquid Silicon Infiltration(LSI) process. The stability of composite has been tested under an oxyacetylene torch flame for up to 5 minutes. The oxidized surface and cross section of specimens were characterized by 3D scanning, X-ray diffraction(XRD), Optical microscope(OM) and Scanning electron microscope(SEM).

This study deals with a method to identify structural damage using the combined finite element method (FEM) and the advanced damage search technique. The novelty of this study is the application of plates with arbitrary damage shapes and their response due to the anomalies in a structure subjected to impact loading. The technique described in this paper may allow us not only to detect the stiffness distribution of the damaged areas but also to find locations and the extent of damage. To demonstrate the feasibility of the method, the algorithm is applied to a steel thin plate structures with an arbitrary damage shape. The results demonstrate the excellencies of the method from the standpoints of computation efficiency as well as its ability to investigate the arbitrary stiffness reductions.

Eight-coordinate tetrakis molybdenum(IV) complexes containing 5,7-dichloro-8-hydroxyquinolinol(Hdcq) and 2-mercaptopyrimidine(Hmpd) has been prepared. $Mo(mpd)_4$, $Mo(dcq)(mpd)_3$, $Mo(dcq)_2(mpd)_2$, $Mo(dcq)_3(mpd)$ and $Mo(dcq)_4$ complexes have been isolated by thin-layer chromatography on silicagel plates. These complexes have been charaterized by $^1H-nmr$ spectrum and UV-Vis. spectrum. The chemical shift values of the protons ${\alpha}$ to the nitrogen in the ligands are shifted to down field. The relative intensities of the peaks which are positioned at the same proton of $Mo(dcq)(mpd)_3$ and $Mo(dcq)_3(mpd)$ are observed in 2:1 ratio, in case of $Mo(dcq)_2(mpd)_2$ appears in approximately a 1:1 ratio. The stereochemistry of the complexes in discussed in terms of their nmr spectrum and Orgel's rule. By vertue of the intensities (${\varepsilon}$>10,000~25,000) the low energy($16,600{\sim}19,800cm^{-1}$) bands are observed for the electronic spectra of the complexes are assigned as charge transfer bands.
