The complex glow curves were split into isolated glow curves to be calculated the values of kinetic order, activation energy, escape frequency and density of initial trap from the independent glow curves using the mathematical method of thermally stimulated processes. The minimization of the intensity difference between measured and theoretical glow curve was done by the nonlinear least-square program. The results of the fitted curves were almost equal to the actual values of the parameters. Thermoluminescence from gamma ray irradiated ${\alpha}$-Al$_2$ $O_3$ over the range of 300K to 600K was split into six glow curves. The kinetic order, activation energy and escape frequency of first glow curve were obtained as 1, 1.12eV and 6.79X10$\^$12/sec$\^$-1/, respectively, which were similar to the results of other method. Also the parameters of the second and the third glow curve and so forth were calculated.

In this study, the "Multi Well Plate-type cell Apparatus" was designed and setup for performing the producing experiments of methane hydrate by depressurization, heat stimulating methods. In order to characterizing the producing mechanism of hydrate through porous materials, the experiments for various producing methods have been conducted with the aid of the apparatus which has high permeability. In the experimental result of depressurization method, the pressure is temporarily increased unlikely conventional gas reservoir due to the sourcing effect of hydrate dissociation in the pore. Meanwhile, the temperature is decreased because of the endothermic reaction while hydrate is dissociated. In the experimental results of heat stimulating method, the dissociation in depressurization method is more slowly processed than that in thermal method, and hence, its gas production is lower. In the case of production right after heating, hydrate is dissociated only near injecting point and the permeability becomes greater at that area only. It infers that the more gas is produced during relatively earlier producing period. Since then, the hydrate is more slowly dissociated than the case of production after heating and soaking. This time, the performances of pressure and production obtained by thermal method have been analyzed in order to investigate the effect of soaking time on gas recovery. As a result, the gas recoveries in the case of 2 min and 4 min soaking are higher than case in 6 min soaking. This is reason that hydrate is reformed due to the decrease of temperature. It is expected that the experimental results obtained in this work may be more clearly explained by utilizing the lower permeable porous system with the greater hydrate saturation.

This paper presents the experimental study to analyze the pressure and production behavior using depressurization and thermal methods in order to evaluate the hydrate productivity in the 2-D multi-well, plate-type apparatus which has 80 md permeability and 30% hydrate saturation. Injecting methane gas through multi-well allowed to set up the highly saturated hydrate system and combining two different sorts of sands made possible to build up the low permeability system. In this system, both depressurization and electric stimulation methods were applied. When operating pressure was low, according to the depressurization experiments results, the gas recovery was high, however strong pulses which appeared at initial stage of production would damage the operation system. Moreover, cases that hydrate reformed have occurred by endothermic reaction. We have conducted experiments four and six times for the depressurization magnitudes of 140 psi and 320 psi, respectively, to analyze production behavior for the method more in detail. For the cases that the depressurization magnitude was set as 140 psi, the unstable period appears in the results, but stabilized soon. In the experiment results for 320 psi the discontinuous and intermittent behavior has been observed. Thermal stimulation experiments was conducted with depressurizing 80 psi which is the case that shows stable behavior and low recovery. In the results, the gas recovery was high and the energy efficiency was low for long stimulating time. The energy efficiency and gas recovery increased for the soaking time of 1 minute after 2 minute-preheating. In the cases of which the soaking time exceeds 1 minute, energy loss by long soaking time caused low gas recovery and poor energy efficiency.

본 연구에서는 향이 인간에 미치는 영향을 EEG의 시계열 분석을 통해 알아보았다. 피험자는 20대 초반의 후각자애가 없는 30명(남녀 각각 15명)을 대상으로 하여, 국제 기준 전극법을 사용하여 Fz과 Cz에서 뇌파를 기록하였다. 100%의 Rose oil Bulgarian, Lemon oil Mistitano, Jasmine abs, Lavender oil France, Peppermint oil을 실험 시약으로 사용하였다. 각 향 자극에 대하여 1분 동안의 측정을 10초 간격으로 구분하여 $\alpha/(\alpha+\beta)$ 비와 $\beta/(\alpha+\beta)$ 대역의 비를 비교 분석하였다. 30초까지는 안정과 향 자극간의 차이가 증대되는 성향을 보였으나 50초부터는 감소되는 경향을 보였다. 본 연구를 통해 향간의 차이가 자극제시 후 30초 일 때 가장 큰 것으로 나타났다고 이 시간을 기준으로 각 향의 선호도를 분석하였다.

새로운 에너지원으로서의 가스 하이드레이트 개발 연구는 한국에서는 2005년 산업자원부에 의해 가스하이드레이트 개발 연구 사업이 정식으로 출범하면서 활발히 진행되기 시작하였다. 2007년도에 종료된 1단계 연구를 통하여 동해에서 가스 하이드레이트 부존이 확인됨에 따라 2단계에서 부터는 가스하이드레이트 생산 연구가 연구의 중심으로 떠오르게 되었다. 생산 연구는 물성/생산 실험 연구, 전산모사 연구, 해외 현장 시험 생산 연구로 크게 나뉘어 질 수 있는데 현재 한국에서는 물성/생산 실험 연구가 가장 활발히 진행되어 왔다. 이에 따라 보다 체계적이고 계획적인 연구를 위하여 기 실험된 연구를 종합 분석하여 체계적인 실험 결과의 활용과 향후 연구 계획을 하고자 한다. 본 발표에서는 기 실행된 실험 연구를 수행기관, 시료의 크기, 경계조건 등의 실험 규모, 시료의 종류, 하이드레이트 형성 조건, 측정 물성, 채택 생산 기법 등의 실험 내용 등을 종합하여 소개하고자 한다. 1단계에서는 주로 실험실 스케일, 인공 모래 시료, 인공 가스하이드레이트를 이용한 실험연구가 주를 이루었으며 이를 보완하기 위하여 2단계에서는 중규모, 자연시료, 자연 하이드레이트를 이용한 실험연구가 시작되었다. 초기 단계에서 생산 기법으로 감압법, 열수 주입법, 열자극 법, 화학 억제제 주입법, 치환 생상법 등이 연구되었으며 그 결과 감압법을 주 생산 기법으로 하여 열수 주입법, 열자극법, 화학 억제제 주입법 등을 하이드레이트 재생성 억제기법으로 혼합하여 쓰는 하이브리드 기법들이 연구 되었으며 현재 세계적인 수준의 실험 연구 기술 수준을 보유 하고 있는 치환 생산법 연구가 또한 현재까지 활발히 진행되고 있다.

Most gas hydrates (GH) occur in ocean sediments. Global GH reserves are estimated to be $10^{13}{\sim}20{\times}10^{15}m^3$, which is nearly 1,000 times the amount of current world energy consumption. Methane hydrate (MH) has the potential to be developed into future natural gas resources to replace traditional oil and gas resources, and thus MH production technologies such as depressurization, inhibitor injection, thermal stimulation, and $CO_2-CH_4$ substitution need to be further developed. MH production, which is expected to be in test production until 2014 in Korea, is focused on the development of GH production technologies for use in the commercial production of methane gas. This study compares MH production technology and its ability to meet the twin goals of being both effective and environmentally friendly while taking into consideration the complex phenomena of GH decomposition.

For non-contact nerve stimulations using time varying magnetic field, high amplitude current pulses have to be applied to a magnetic nerve stimulation coil. To increase the magnetic stimulation frequency we have to increase both power supply capacity and cooling capacity of the magnetic nerve stimulator. To alleviate these problems. we propose a new magnetic nerve stimulation coil design methods. Utilizing magnetic mirror effect of a ferro-magnetic plate attached to a magnetic stimulation coil. we have improved efficiency of the stimulation coil. We have analyzed magnetic mirror effect for various kinds of stimulation coils using the finite element method, and we present experimental results obtained with several kinds of stimulation coils.

In this study, we simulated both dissociation of gas hydrate and mechanical deformation of hydrate-bearing sedimentary formation using geomechanical model. The geomechanical model analysis consists of two distinct codes of TOUGH+Hydrate and FLAC3D. The model is characterized by the fact that changes of temperature, pressure, saturation and their influence on the consequent evolution of effective stress, stiffness and strength of hydrate-bearing sediments during gas production could be well simulated. We compared the results of simulation for two different production methods, and showed that combination of depressurization and thermal stimulation results in the enhancement of production rate especially at early stage. We also presented that the hydrate dissociation-induced geomechanical deformation in unconsolidated clay is much larger than that in sandstone.

자기공명영상시스템의 경사자계코일을 영구자석의 자극에 부착할 경우 경사자계의 분포가 변하고 코일의 인덕턴스가 증가하는 현상이 생긴다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 자극효과를 고려하여 평면형 경사자계코일을 설계하는 방법을 제시하였다. 제사한 방법에는 자극 효과를 거울 전류로 모델링하였고, 모델링한 거울 전류를 고려하여 경사자계코일의 인덕턴스를 최소화하는 방법을 구했다. 또한 실제 상황과 가장 흡사한 자계 분포를 만들어주는 거울 전류의 크기를 구하기 위해 유한요소법을 적용하였다. 제시한 방법으로는 설계된 경사자계코일은 종래의 설계된 경사자계 코일에 비해 우수한 성능을 보였다.
