SPI지수는 강수량이 감소하기 시작하면 필요한 물수요에 비해서 상대적으로 물부족을 유발하게 되고, 가뭄발생의 발단이 된다는 것에 착안하여 개발된 지수이다. 하지만 다른 가뭄지수와 마찬가지로 강수량 또는 유출량 시계열을 상대적인 표준정규분포로 산정하였기 때문에 인근 지역에 비해 상대적으로 강수량이 많은 지역도 실제로 발생하지 않은 가뭄이 발생한다고 분석이 된다. 이러한 현상을 완화시키기 위해 수정된 가뭄분석 기법이 요구된다. 이에 Jeung et. al(2019)은 이런 현상을 완화시키기 위해 SPI지수 계산과정에서 해당지점의 시계열을 대상으로 계산되는 Gamma 분포를 전국으로 확장 시켜 산정 후 표준정규분포에 적용하여 가뭄지수를 산정하였다. 또한 과거 제한급수가 발생했던 지역을 대상으로 극한가뭄과 가뭄지속기간을 이용하여 M-SPI지수의 효용성을 확인한 결과, 제한급수 실시년도와 SPI, M-SPI 결과와의 비교결과 과거 가뭄을 정확하게 모사하는 것을 확인하였다. 하지만 M-SPI는 전국을 하나의 지역으로 가정하여 산정하였고, 증발산량과, 고도 등 지형의 특성을 고려하지 않았기 때문에 일부의 가뭄사상을 재현하지 못하였다. 이에 본 연구에서는 기상학적 인자와, 지형학적 인자를 고려하여 지역화를 하고, 각 지역별로 대표 확률분포를 산정하여 가뭄지수를 산정하고자 한다. 또한 한국 기상청에서 제공하고 있는 국가 표준기후변화 시나리오를 수집하여 M-SPI에 적용하여 미래 극한 가뭄빈도의 변화를 전망하고자 한다.

스마트 도금공장을 구축하기 위해서는 도금액 내부의 화학 물질 농도 변화를 측정할 수 있는 화학 센서 기술이 필수적으로 요구된다. 와트욕은 대표적인 고속 니켈 도금액 중 하나로 기본적으로 황산니켈, 염화니켈, 보릭산의 염과 함께 케리어(type-1 광택제), 광택제(type 2-광택제), 응력 제어제 등의 유기 첨가제로 구성되어 있다. 이러한 유기 첨가제는 전차된 니켈층의 두께 균일도, 조도, 미세 구조, 내부 응력 등 다양한 특성을 제어하며, 정밀한 농도 관리가 필수적으로 요구되나, 분석 기술의 부재로 인하여 지금까지도 대부분의 액관리는 할셀법이나 작업자의 경험에 의존하고 있다. Cyclic voltammetry stripping(CVS) 방법은 전기화학 분석 과정에서 나타나는 첨가제의 가속, 감속 특성 등과 여기에 수반되는 stripping peak의 변화를 이용하여 개별 첨가제의 농도를 측정하는 방법이며, 지금까지 인쇄회로기판의 비아필 공정, 전해 동박 제조, 반도체 배선 등 구리도금 산업 전반에 걸쳐 첨가제 관리에 효과적으로 적용되고 있다. 그러나 수소 발생으로 인한 stripping 효율 문제로 인하여 니켈, 주석, 아연 등 표준 환원 전위가 높은 금속 도금액 내부 첨가제 농도 측정은 아직 어려운 상황이다. 본 연구에서는 이 문제를 극복하기 위해 염소를 과량 첨가한 구리 도금액을 CVS 분석의 base 용액으로 이용하여 니켈 도금액 내부 여러 광택제 (polyetylene glycol(PEG) 계열, thiourea 계열, 2-butyne-1,4-diol 등) 농도를 측정하는 법을 제시하였다. 제시된 방법은 CVS 분석 과정에서 구리-염소 사이의 상호 작용으로 인해 생성되는 3가지 stripping peak의 상대적인 크기 변화가 첨가제 농도에 따라 영향을 받는다는 사실에 기반하였다. 본 연구에서는 여기에 관한 원인에 대해 고찰하였으며, 제시된 방법을 통해 광택제 계열 첨가제 농도 측정을 선택적으로 할 수 있다는 것을 증명하였다.

Polysulfone composites including graphene were prepared, and their thermal characteristics in membrane states were analyzed by using a custome-made residual stress analyzer and a thermal diffusivity analyzer based on laser flash method. The residual stress analysis was carried out on the polysulfone composite films deposited on Si (100) substrates for 1 cycle of heating and cooling runs. The flat membrane of graphene-embedded polysulfone composites were prepared by the phase transfer method in distilled water and the thermal conductivity was separately measured in the out-of-plane and the in-plane directions. The residual stress of the graphene-embedded polysulfone film was gradually decreased with increasing graphene loading and the out-of-plane thermal conductivity was distinguished from the in-plane thermal conductivity in the flat membranes. These thermal characteristics are caused by the structural uniqueness of graphene and the micro-void structures formed during membrane fabrication.

유기물/무기물 나노복합체는 메모리, 트렌지스터, 발광 다이오드, 태양 전지 소자에 응용이 시도되고 있으나 유기물의 물리적인 특성 때문에 전류 전송 메커니즘 규명에는 충분한 연구가 진행되어 있지 못하다. 유기물/무기물 나노복합소재를 기반으로 차세대 광학소자나 비휘발성 메모리 소자에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있으며, 기억소자의 성능 향상을 위하여 여러 가지 유기물/무기물 나노복합소재를 사용하여 제작한 유기 쌍안정성 소자가 차세대 플렉서블 비휘발성 기억소자로 대두되고 있다. 유기 쌍안정성 소자는 비휘발성 기억 소자 중에서 구조가 간단하고 제작비용이 저렴하며 유연성을 가지기 때문에 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 많은 장점에도 불구하고 유기물에 관한 많은 연구가 이루어지지 않았기 때문에 소자의 동작특성, 재연성 등의 문제점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 유기 쌍 안정성 소자의 전기적 특성을 연구하기 위하여 ZnO 나노입자를 포함한 PMMA 복합층을 사용하여 소자를 제작하고 전기적 특성을 측정하였으며, 유기물/무기물 나노복합소재의 전류 전송 메커니즘을 이론적으로 규명하였다. 트랩밀도 변화가 유기 쌍안정성 소자에 미치는 영향을 연구하기 위하여 C60 층을 삽입하였고, 그 결과 C60이 삽입된 유기 쌍안정성 소자가 향상된 메모리 특성을 보였다. 소자의 제작은 Indium tin oxide가 증착된 유리 기판위에 C60 층을 스핀코팅 방법으로 적층하였다. ZnO 나노 입자와 PMMA를 혼합하여 스핀코팅 방법으로 C60층 위에 박막을 형성한 후, 전극으로 Al을 열증착으로 형성하였다. Space charge limitted current 메커니즘을 이용하여 simulation을 수행하였고 이를 current density - voltage (J-V) 특성과 비교 분석하였다. J-V 특성 결과, simulation결과, 소자의 구조를 통해 유기물/무기물 나노복합소재 기반 메모리 소자의 쓰기, 지우기 및 읽기 동작에 대한 과정을 설명하였다. 또한 C60층을 삽입한 유기물/무기물 나노복합소자를 이용하여 트랩 밀도 변화가 유기 쌍안정성 소자의 전기적 특성에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다.

The use of flames is essential in cutting, bending, and welding steel during a ship's construction process. While acetylene fuel is commonly used in steel cutting and the manufacturing process in shipyards, the use of propane as an alternative fuel has recently been increasing, due to the lower risk of explosion and propane's relatively low calorific value. However, propane fuel has a relatively slow processing speed and high slag generation frequency, thereby resulting in poor quality. Propylene is another alternative fuel, which has an excellent calorific value. It is expected to gain wider use because of its potential to improve the quality, productivity, and efficiency of steel processing. In this study, the combustion characteristics of propane and propylene fuel during steel plate processing were analyzed and compared. The reduction of greenhouse gases and other harmful gases when using propylene flame was experimentally verified by analyzing the gases emitted during the process. Heat distribution and tensile tests were also performed to investigate the effects of heat input, according to processing fuel used, on the mechanical strength of the marine steel. The results showed that when propylene was used, the temperature was more evenly distributed than when propane fuel was used. Moreover, the mechanical tests showed that when using propylene, there was no decrease in tensile strength, but the strain showed a tendency to decrease. Based on the study results, it is recommended that propylene be used in steel processing and the cutting process in actual shipyards in the future. Additionally, more analysis and supplementary research should be conducted on problems that may occur.

Ambers are composed of polymer molecules which contain aromatic moieties such as benzene, naphthalene, phenanthrene and anthracene. They emit fluorescence when irradiated with ultraviolet light, which was used for confirming an amber. The fluorescence of amber, however, tends to decrease as the surface of amber is weathered with light, heat, oxygen for a long time. In this study, the reliability of confirming amber with its fluorescence by measuring the changes of fluorescence after artificial aging. Aging factors were UV light (${\lambda}$=340 nm), oxygen with heat (100%, $90^{\circ}C$) and heat ($90^{\circ}C$) and aging time was for 5, 15, 30 and 60 days, respectively. In the excitation and emission spectra of amber, the intensity decreased and the maximal wavelength was shifted to longer wavelength with artificial aging time. Especially, there was a drastic decrease in the intensity of spectra to 1.7% of initial value after 60 days aging under oxygen with heat. Only in Colombian amber there showed an increase of fluorescence intensity for a certain aging time, which could be explained by the production of aromatic ring in the presence of light and heat. Conclusively, the fluorescence can be lessened by the natural weathering with light, heat and oxygen and it is not accurate to recognize amber just with UV irradiation method.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the general characteristics, work overload, work life balance, job engagement of working adolescents and the factors affecting job engagement. We examined 1,772 working adolescents under the age of 24 years in response to the fifth Korean Working Conditions Survey. Technical statistics, t-test, ANOVA, and regression analysis were used. The study results showed that men had high-level job engagement when they were professional, self-employed, 41-52 hours per week, and never experienced employment discrimination. For women, job engagement was high if they were under 19 years of age, college graduates, professions, temporary work, 41-52 hours a week, and had never experienced gender discrimination, and employment discrimination. In addition, the job engagement of both men and women was higher when work overload was less and work life balance was good. This study is meaningful in that it examined the job engagement of working youth by using the Korean Working Conditions Survey representative of Korean workers. However, it has limitations in that it does not take into account specific circumstances such as academic status or military service. Based on the study results, it can be used as basic data for developing educational programs to manage job engagement and understanding of working adolescents.

There are several stylized facts concerning stock return volatility. First, it is persistent, so an increase in current volatility lasts for many periods. Second, stock volatility increases after stock prices fall. Third, stock volatility is related to macroeconomic volatility, recessions, and banking crises. On the other hand, there are many competing parametric models to represent conditional heteroskedasticity of stock returns. For this article, I adopt the strategy followed by French, Schwert, and Stambaugh(1987) and Schwert(l989, 1990). The models in this article provide a more structured analysis of the time-series properties of stock market volatility. Briefly, these models remove autoregressive and seasonal effects from daily returns to estimate unexpected returns. Then the absolute values of the unexpected returns are used in an autoregressive model to predict stock volatility.

This paper reviews the structures, physical and chemical properties, origins and global distribution, amount of energy resources, production technologies, and environmental impacts of gas hydrates to understand the gas hydrates as future energy sources. Hydrate structures should be studied to clarify the fundamentals of natural gas hydrates, hydrate distributions, and amount of energy sources in hydrates. Phase equilibria, dissociation enthalpy, thermal conductivity, specific heat, thermal diffusivity, and fluid permeability of gas hydrate systems are important parameters for the the efficient recovery of natural gas from hydrate reservoirs. Depressurization, thermal stimulation, inhibitor injection, and chemical exchange methods can be considered as future technologies to recover the energy sources from natural gas hydrates, but so far depressurization is the only method to have been applied in test productions of both onshore and offshore hydrates. Finally, we discuss the hypotheses of environmental impacts of gas hydrates and their contribution to global warming due to hydrate dissociation.

A drought event is characterized by duration, severity and affected area. In general, after calculating a drought index using hydro-meteorological time series at a station, a drought event is defined based on the run theory to identify the beginning and end time. However, this one-dimensional analysis has limitations for analyzing the spatio-temporal occurrence characteristics and movement paths of drought. Therefore, this study is to define a three-dimensional drought event using a simple clustering algorithm and to develop a drought map that can be used to understand the drought severity according to the spatio-temporal expansion of drought. As a result, compared with the two-dimensional monitoring information to show spatial distribution of drought index, a proposed drought map is able to show three-dimensional drought characteristics inclusing drought duration, spatial cumulative severity, and centroid of drought. The analysis of drought map indicated that there was a drought event which had the affected area less than 10 % while on occations while there were 11 drought events (44 %) which had the affected area more a than 90 % of the total area. This means that it is important to understand the relationship between spatial variation of drought affected area and severity corresponding to various drought durations. The development of drought map based on three-dimensional drought analysis is useful to analyze the spatio-temporal occurrence characteristics and propagation patterns of regional drought which can be utilized in developing mitigation measures for future extreme droughts.
