In this study, conceptual design of the fore-body hull form of catamaran type dredging vessel was performed that can effectively remove the contaminated sediments in coastal seabed. The hull form was simpled for the easy hull construction and the resistance performance was investigated to find out the effect of hull form parameters between variation of waterline and angle of entrance, etc. The relation between resistance performance and characteristics of free surface flows according to variation of bow forms was investigated by model testing in the circulating water channel and using Ansys CFX. The improvement of ship resistance performance to the wave resistance decrease due to improved wave pattern has been verified according to move the stem and the volume of the shoulder to the fore part of the vessel.

The character design is part of a culture. That is, it is not just an object but it reflects the cultural tendency and context where it is visualized. It's potential as a cultural medium of communication become pervasive in the field. One of good sources of characters is the classics which represent the nation's culture and history. The topic of this presentation is to show how a character in the Buddhist story, the Monkey King, designed differently in different context. For the purpose, the animation on the Monkey King in China, Japan and Korea are reviewed and analyzed. The result shows that the same animation character has been designed in different way in different context and it reflects the cultural tendency of the country. For example, Koreans tend to emphasize the global feature of the character. In case of Chinese, however, the character designer emphasizes traditional value. Finally, the designer in Japan tries to put their cultural element in detailed part of the character that makes it appeal to the public.

The performance and the operational problems of UASB(Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket) reactor for treatment of dairy wastewaters were investigated. Synthetic milk wastewater was successfully treated up to the loading rate of 3.9kg $COD/m^3.day$, with a specific gas production rate of 1. 23 I/I. day and a COD removal efficiency of over 90%. However, the sludge rising was observed at the loading rate of 2.1kg $COD/m^3.day$, due probably to the formation of scum layer at the surface of settling compartment. The BMP(biochemical methane potential) of raw milk wastewater and ice cream wastewater, measured by using SBT(serum bottle test), were 0.135 and 0.66ml $CH_4/mg\;COD_{added}$, respectively. The sludge activity increased more than 8 times from 0.159g $COD-CH_4/g$ VSS. d during 90 days of operation.

The performance of Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket(UASB) reactor for treatment of corn starch wastewater was investigated using continuous and batch experiment. Results showed that the corn starch wastewater had different characteristics in terms of biodegradability and methane potential, depending on the manufacturing precess. COD removal efficiencies were maintained over 70% up to the loading rate of 3.2 kg $COD/m^3{\cdot}day$ and the maximum gas production rate was about 55 l/day, equivalent to 3.5 l/day per liter of reactor volume, at the loading rate of 8.4 kg $COD/m^3{\cdot}day$. In the anaerobic serum bottle test(SBT) carried out along with continuous operation, the sludge activity was found to increase from 0.03 to 0.53 g $COD-CH_4/g\;VSS{\cdot}day$ as granular sludges were developed in 130 days operation. SBT gave valuable informations on the characteristics of wastewaters to be treated as well as on the sludge activity. The overall morphological characteristics of granular sludges cultivated on corn starch wastewaters were similar to those cultivated on various organic industrial wastewaters such as distillery and sugar.

The thermodynamic characteristics of a trilateral cycle with water as a working fluid have been theoretically investigated for an electric generation system to recover the waste heat of the exhaust gas from a diesel engine used for the propulsion of a large ship. As a result, when a heat source was given, the efficiencies of energy and exergy were maximized by the specific conditions of the pressure and mass flow rate for the working fluid at the turbine(expander) inlet. In this case, as the condensation temperature increased, the volume expansion ratio of the turbine could be reduced properly; however, the exergy loss of the heat source and exergy destruction of the condenser increased. Therefore, in order to recover the waste exergy from the topping cycle, the combined cycle with a bottoming cycle such as an organic Rankine cycle, which is utilized at relatively low temperatures, was found to be useful.

A series of batch and lab-scale pilot tests were conducted to optimize the design parameters for the application of soil washing techniques to the soil contaminated by heavy metals. Cu, Pb, and Zn were selected as target heavy metals. The concentrations of Cu, Pb, and Zn were 500mg/kg dry soil, 1, 000mg/kg dry soil, and 500mg/kg dry soil, respectively. Citric acid and oxalic acid were used for the extractants. In the batch tests, the extraction efficiencies for Cu, Pb, and Zn were 79%, 72%, 72%, respectively. The proper extractant concentration and dilution ratio(weight/volume) for Cu and Pb were turned to be citric acid 50mM and 1:5, respectively. The extraction efficiencies were enhanced with the addition of 1~2% OA-5 or SDS. From pilot scale tests for Pb, first stage and second stage of soil washing resulted in the extraction efficiency of 59% and 78%, respectively.

마이크로 플루이딕 디바이스는 화학, 생물학 실험 및 생체 의학 진단을 위한 플랫폼으로 지난 20년간 그 사용 및 연구가 증가되어 왔다. 마이크로 플루이딕 디바이스를 제작하는 데 있어 가장 일반적으로 사용되는 재료는 실리콘이지만 비용이 많이 들고 불투명하므로 광학 검출이 필요한 곳에 적용이 제한된다. 이러한 측면에서 열가소성 플라스틱은 상업화의 중요한 요소인 대량 생산에 있어 큰 잠재력을 가지고 있으며 저렴하고, 가공이 쉽고, 유연하고, 광학적으로 투명하고, 화학적으로 불활성이며, 생체적합성을 가진다. 본 연구에서는 열가소성 플라스틱의 일종인 PMMA Poly(methylmethacrylate)를 효율적으로 접합하기 위해 비교적 낮은 온도와 낮은 압력에서 에탄올을 활용한 접착방식을 개발하였다. 먼저, PMMA 기판의 전체 표면을 $80^{\circ}C$에서 20 분 동안 에탄올로 처리한 후, $60^{\circ}C$에서 20 분간 열 압착하는 방식으로 영구적인 결합이 이루어졌다. 결합 강도 및 채널의 sealing 정도를 확인하기 위해, 인장 강도, 누수 및 파열 테스트를 수행하였다. 결합강도는 약 12.4 MPa로 타 연구와 비교할 때 매우 높았으며 마이크로 채널의 전체 내부 체적보다 거의 450 배 높은 강한 액체 흐름을 견딜 정도로 견고한 결합이 유지되었다. 열가소성 플라스틱의 본딩에 사용되는 유기 용매는 광학 특성을 희생시키지 않으면서 결합 속도를 높일 수 있지만, 결합 공정 중에 용매로 인해 마이크로 채널이 막히는 현상이 발생될 수 있다. 따라서, 견고한 본딩을 유지하면서 채널 막힘을 방지하기 위해 마이크로 채널을 소수성으로 선택적으로 처리하여 내벽의 표면 특성을 튜닝해 주는 기법을 추가로 적용하였다. 본 연구에서 사용한 방법은 아민-PDMS (polydimethylsiloxane) 링커를 적용하여 기판 표면의 극성을 변경시켜 주었다. 아민-PDMS 링커는 PC (polycarbonate), PET (polyethylene terephthalate), PVC (polyvinyl chloride) 및 PI (polyimide)와 같은 다양한 열가소성 플라스틱의 표면 소수성을 현저히 증가시키며 화학적, 열적 안정성이 뛰어나다. 아민-PDMS 링커는 PMMA의 카보닐 그룹과 반응할 수 있는 아민 사이드 그룹을 포함하는 PDMS 백본으로 구성되며 처리된 대상표면을 소수성으로 만든다. 아민-PDMS 링커 처리 이후 채널은 소수성으로 변화되었으며 이는 접촉각(contact angle)의 증가로 확인되었다. 코팅된 채널을 에탄올로 30분간 80도에서 처리하여도 소수성은 그대로 유지되어 마이크로 채널의 선택적인 소수성 코팅이 성공적으로 수행되었다.

This study has been focused on determining the chemical composition of $^{14}C$ - in terms of both organic and inorganic $^{14}C$ contents - in reactor coolant from 3 different PWR's reactor type. The purpose was to evaluate the characteristic of $^{14}C$ that can serve as a basis for reliable estimation of the environmental release at domestic PWR sites. $^{14}C$ is the most important nuclide in the inventory, since it contributes one of the main dose contributors in future release scenarios. The reason for this is its high mobility in the environment, biological availability and long half-life(5730yr). More recent studies - where a more detailed investigation of organic $^{14}C$ species believed to be formed in the coolant under reducing conditions have been made - show that the organic compounds not only are limited to hydrocarbons and CO. Possible organic compounds formed including formaldehyde, formic acid and acetic acid, etc. Under oxidizing conditions shows the oxidized carbon forms, possibly mainly carbon dioxide and bicarbonate forms. Measurements of organic and inorganic $^{14}C$ in various water systems were also performed. The $^{14}C$ inventory in the reactor water was found to be 3.1 GBq/kg in PWR of which less than 10% was in inorganic form. Generally, the $^{14}C$ activity in the water was divided equally between the gas- and water- phase. Even though organic $^{14}C$ compound shows that dominant species during the reactor operation, But during the releasing of $^{14}C$ from the plant stack, chemical forms of $^{14}C$ shows the different composition due to the operation conditions such as temperature, pH, volume control tank venting and shut down chemistry.

This paper aims to newly investigate the meaning of life in this era when various discussions on life and ethical living are commonly raised by comparing and examining the theories of life proposed by Confucianism and Daesoon Thought. Both Confucianism and Daesoon Thought explain the creation of all things as having been based on the principles of life in heaven and earth. Specifically, there is the will to live (生意 saengeui) and also divine beings (神明 sinmyeong). For this reason, everything in heaven and earth is created by obtaining the same principle of life such that it is an equal being with the same intrinsic value. Here the consciousness of being one body amid all things as one living thing is established. The consciousness of being one body forms an organic worldview in which all things are one. As a result, all things in heaven and earth exist within a mutual organic relationship, and that makes oneself and others precious life partners that coexist rather than separate beings. Nevertheless, both Confucianism and Daesoon Thought define humans as outstanding beings, set aside for a higher purpose than other beings. The excellence of humans is that by constantly engaging in self reflection and completing tasks through independent efforts, they thereby achieve the great moral doctrine of coexistence and symbiosis. In this process, cultivation of character (修養 suyang) and cultivation of the Dao (修道 sudo) are presented as means to realize one's nature and establish the right human image. By realizing nature or humanity through the cultivation of character and cultivation of the Dao, humans fulfill their responsibilities and missions by independently participating in being nourished by Heaven and Earth (天地化育 cheonjihwayuk) or the Reordering Works of Heaven and Earth (天地公事 cheonjigongsa), both being based in the concept of the three generative forces of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity (天·地·人 cheon·ji·in). In the end, the theories of life posited by Confucianism and Daesoon Thought are based on a consciousness of being one body. Both emphasize the characteristics and roles of humans who are distinguished from other beings and phenomena. At this time, human characteristics and roles are revealed as the reasons for which humans have a responsibility and mission take care of all things. From this point of view, it can be seen that the theoretical structure of Neo-Confucianism and Daesoon Thought, in regards to their theories of life, is rather similar.

The application of anaerobic attached microbial films in the expanded bed process has recently been examined at high temperatures ($55^{\circ}C$) and with particulate matter. Extrapolation of the kinetics suggested that waste activated sludge (WAS) could be efficiently digested at hydraulic retention times as short as six hours in the expanded bed process. This would represent a 99 percent digester reactor volume reduction and would introduce interesting solids management alternatives if such a high rate process were developed. This paper presents a summary of a 1.5 year study of the feasibility of such a process. Three continuously fed $55^{\circ}C$ laboratory reactor systems were used to define the kinetics and the site of reactions-control completely mixed reactors were compared to the expanded beds (AAFEB) with and without a hydrolysis unit preceding the attached film unit. Well defined laboratory-generated WAS was compared to actual WAS from a domestic sewage treatment facility. Sixty percent of the biodegradable organics were converted in an AAFEB at a 15-hour hydraulic retention time without hydrolysis, whereas greater than 95 perccent of the biodegradable organics were stabilized in a two-stage system consisting of a 3-day HRT hydrolysis reactor followed by a 15-hour HRT AAFEB. The limitations of this high rate process and its potential application are discussed.
