A radiophotoluminescent glass rod detector (GRD) system has recently become commercially available. We investigate the dosimetric properties of the GRD regarding the reproducibility of signal, dose linearity and energy dependence. The reproducibility of five measurements for 50 GRDs is presented by an average of one standard deviation of each GRD and it is ${\pm}1.2%$. It is found to be linear in response to doses of $^{60}Co$ beam in the range 0.5 to 50 Gy with a coefficient of linearity of 0.9998. The energy dependence of the GRD is determined by comparing the dose obtained using cylindrical chamber to that by using the GRD. The GRD response for each beam is normalized to the response for a $^{60}Co$ beam. The responses for 6 and 15 MV x-ray beams are within ${\pm}1.5%$ (1SD). The energy response of GRD for high-energy photon is almost the same as the energy dependence of LiF:Mg:Ti (TLD-100)and shows little energy dependence unlike p-type silicon diode detector. The GRDs have advantages over other detectors such diode detector, and TLD: linearity, reproducibility and energy dependency. It has been verified to be an effective device for small field dosimetry for stereotactic radiosurgery.

Ternary $SrO-B_2O_3-SiO_2$ glasses were fabricated as a function of R(${\equiv}SrO\;mole%/B_2O_3\;mole%$) and K(${\equiv}SiO_2\;mole%/B_2O_3\;mole%$). The structures of these glasses were investigated through Infrared transmittance, vicker's hardness, and refractive index. The results indicated : First, in the infrared transmittance spectra, when R increased, the intensities of the absorption bands around $1200{\sim}1600cm^{-1}$ resulting from the B-O stretching vibration bond in the symmetrical trigonal $BO_3$ units decreased, and these of the absorption bands around $800{\sim}1200cm^{-1}$ caused by the B-O stretching vibration bond of the tetrahedral $BO_4$ units varied. Also, the intensities of the absorption bands for the B-O stretching vibration bond in trigonal $BO_3$ units increased and these of the bands for B-O stretching vibration bond in tetrahedral $BO_4$ units decreased as K increased. Second, the increase and the decrease of vicker's hardness values for these glasses depended on the fraction of $BO_4$ units and it of $BO_3$ units, respectively. The refractive index of these glasses mostly depended on the SrO contents and only slightly depended on the fraction of $BO_4$ and $BO_3{^-}$ units.

Rapidly growing mobile machines such as tablet PC and smart phone are equipped with touch screen panel using a sturdy material for products surface protection. Therefore, surge of chemically strengthened glass was increased and the amount of waste matter is proportional to demand. The purpose of this study is environmental impact assessment on touch screen panel of chemically strengthened glass by material life cycle assessment (MLCA). We used CES of Granta, SimaPro and Gabi software for MLCA. Chemically strengthened glass (2.7, 5.7 and 10.3 inch) was calculated to environmental impact assessment by Granta software under two cases. One case is Landfill and the other case is Reuse. As a result, in case of reuse, energy values of 2.7, 5.7 and 10.3 inches were reduced by an average of 51.4%, $CO_2$ values were reduced by an average of 46.6% than Landfill case, respectively. We assessed impact categories of 11 types using SimaPro software. As a result, the contents of fossil fuels, inorganics and climate change have a huge impact than the other impact categories. And the main cause of environmental impact is antimony and hydrogen fluoride in Gabi results.

Sea urchin roe obtained from Anthocidaris crassispina and Pseudocentrotus depressus was briefly salt-fermented (5%), followed by ethanol treatment (1%) and the physicochemical properties as well as antioxidant activity were investigated. Compared to raw sea urchin roes, the salted one showed a significantly low amount of water (p<0.001) high salinity (p<0.05), ash content (p<0.001) and Na content (p<0.001). With salt-fermentation, the redness (p<0.05) and yellowness (p<0.001) of roe decreased noticeably, indicating the decomposition of endogenous carotenoids. Accordingly, the salted roe showed a lower DPPH radical scavenging activity than its unsalted counterpart. Additionally, it showed a significantly lower metal-chelating activity (p<0.05) and metal chelator content (e.g. ortho-phenolics) displayed by a negligible difference in titratable acidity. The salted roe showed significantly increased hardness (p<0.05) and total reducing capacity (p<0.001), which were attributed to the protein coagulation and the release of antioxidants bound to macromolecules after the ethanol treatment, respectively.

The effect of glass bead and glass fiber on the enhancement of dimensional stability in poly(ethylene naphthalate) (PEN) flexible substrate for photovoltaic devices has been studied. It was found that the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) and the optical transmittance decreased with increasing inorganic filler content. In addition to filler contents, the size and size distribution of fillers are the other important factors to improve CTE and optical transmittance of PEN film. Our results showed that the optimum filler content was found to be about 5 wt% to enhance the dimensional stability of PEN by more than 50% with maintaining the optical transmittance over 85% for the flexible substrate.

The feasibility of substituting a composite mold for an aluminum mold in the fabrication of a small ship propeller was investigated. A small three-blade aluminum propeller was used as a plug for manufacturing the composite mold. A GRPG composite mold and propeller were made from an unsaturated polyester resin, Epovia gelcoat, and woven and mat glass fibers using the compression and vacuum method at room temperature. The hardness and surface roughness and the strength and deformation of the compression and suction molds were experimentally determined. The results were compared with the ISO 484/2 standard and some aluminum alloy materials. The results showed that the deformation of the mold satisfied the tolerance of the thickness of the blade. Some characteristics of the GRPG composite mold were better than those of the aluminum alloy mold (surface smoothness, weight, performance, and cost), and some characteristics were similar (detachment ability and life-cycle). Therefore, the composite mold is considered suitable for the fabrication of a small composite ship propeller.

Acoustic streaming induced by the microscopic longitudinal ultrasonic vibration at 28.5 ㎑ is visualized between the quiescent glass plate and ultrasonic vibrator by particle imaging velocimetry(PIV) using laser. To investigate the augmentation of air flow velocity of acoustic streaming. the velocity variations of air streaming between the stationary plate and ultrasonic vibrator are measured in real-time. It is experimentally investigated that the magnitude of the acoustic streaming dependent upon the gap between the ultrasonic vibrator and stationary p1ate results in the variations of the average velocity fields as a outcome of the bulk air flow caused by the ultrasonic vibration. In addition. maximum acoustic streaming velocity exists at resonant gap. 18mm that is one of the resonant gaps (H=18, 24, 30, 36㎜) at which resonance occurs. The variation of the local maximum turbulent intensity with axial direction appear to reveal the value of 8%∼70% dependent upon the gap between the quiescent glass plate and ultrasonic vibrator. Shearstress is also maximized at the center region of the vibrator and the vorticity is also maximum and minimum in the neighborhood of the center of the vibrator at which the local maximum turbulent intensity and shear stress exist.

This study was aimed to see the effect of chemical grout on fresh granite joint shear strength. The grouting chemical used in this study was composed of 25% water glass. Direct shear tests were performed on the chemical filled joints, which had been made artificially with granite. The test results show that chemical grouted rock jonts have markedly reduced shear strength comparing with the ungrouted fresh joints and they sheared within chemical grout before the rock to rock contact had been established, while the ungrouted joint sheared between rock surfaces from the beginning of shear deformation. With chemical grouted joints the shear stress slowly reached its maximum without showing distinct peak shear strength. Therefore the shear stiffness of joints were decreased with increasing thickness of grout. but the shear strain at failure was increased with it.

본 연구과제에서는 적출판류간실험법 (isolated perfused liver technique)을 약물의 간독성 유발 및 보간작용에 관한 실험법으로 개발하고자 butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) 을 이용하여 보간실험을 하였다. BHA를 식이투여한 흰쥐로부터 적출한 간에 간독성 모델물질로 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol (DCPIP) 을 관류시켜 관류액내의 DCPIP의 유리형, 환원형, glucuronide, sulfate 포합체의 대사체를 측정하여 DCPIP 외 대사양상을 관찰하였으며, 동시에 간세포 손상으로 관류액내로 유출된 lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)의 활성도를 측정하여 DCPIP예 의할 간세포독성 유발정도를 간접적으로 측정하여 대조군과 비교하였다. 그리고 BHA에 의한 보간작용이 약물대사효소의 변와에 기인한 것인가를 관찰하기 위하여 모델약물로 7-ethoxycoumarin (EC) 이나 EC의 phase I 대사산물인 7-hydroxycoumarin (HC) 을 관류시켜 관류액내의 HC의 유리체, glucuronide 포합체, sulfate 포합체로의 대사량을 측정하여 약물대사시 약물의 활성화에 관계하는 phase I mixed function oxidase (MFO) 효소와 약물의 해독화에 관계하는 phase II 포합효소 (UDP-glucuronyltranesferase(UDPGT)와 sulfotransferase (ST))의 활성도 변화를 측정하여 대조군과 비교하였다. 간독성 모델물질인 DCPIP를 적출한 흰쥐의 간에 관규시켰을때 BHA 전처리군이 LDH가 유출되기 시작하는 시간이 대조군에 비하여 유의적으로 늦었으며, LCH가 유출량도 유의적으로 감소되어 DCPIP에 의한 간독성 유발능력이 BHA에 의하여 감소됨을 관찰하였다. 아울러 DCPIP의 대사체중 환원체와 glucuronide 포합체의 생성량이 증가되어 BHA에 의하여 quinone reductase와 UDPGT 활성도가 증가되었음을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 BHA 전처리에 의하여 MFO효소계와 ST의 활성도에는 변화가 없었으나 UDOGT 의 활성도는 약 2.2배 증가되었다. 이상의 결과로 BHA에 의한 보간작용은 간독성 물질을 활성화시키는 phase I MFO 효소의 활성도에는 변화없이 해독작용에 관여하는 phase II효소들의 활성도 증가에 기인된 것을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 이러한 결과는 적출한 관류간실험법은 여러 약물의 보간효과를 관찰하는 실험법으로 적합할 것으로 사료되었다.

본 연구에서는 국산닥, 태국닥, 중국닥의 원료를 사용하여 펄핑, 표백, 고해, 초지, 건조의 방식을 변화시켜 총 3500 여장에 이르는 한지를 한지제조 전문가가 일정한 방법에 따라 제 조하였고 그 특정들을 조직적으로 검토하였다. 이러한 연구는 한지의 물성이 닥섬유의 처 리공정에 의해 어떻게 영향을 받는지 연구를 통계적으로 가능하게 하였다. 본 연구에서는 육재펄핑과 일광표백의 효과, 외발뜨기와 쌍발뜨기의 효과, 고해방식의 차이, 먹퍼집성에 대 해 결과들을 보이 고 있다. 육재 펄핑과 일광표백이 한지의 물성에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 알아보기로 하였다. 현 재는 많은 한지 업자들이 육재펄핑보다는 가성소다 펄핑 (그림에서는 약품펄핑으로 표기), 일광표백보다는 차아염소산 나트륨 (그림에서는 약품표백으로 표기)을 사용하는 것이 보통 이다. 육재펄핑과 일광표백을 실시한 한지는 열단장, 인열강도, 내절도를 약품펄핑이나 약 품표백보다 높이는 효과가 있음을 알 수 있었다. 하지만 약품을 사용하는 경우 리그닌의 용출이 더 수윌하므로 백색도는 약품을 사용하는 경우가 더 유리하였다. 국산닥의 경우 육 재펄핑과 일광표백을 한 경우 먹퍼짐성이 약품사용 한지보다 크지 않음을 볼 수 있었다. 한국의 전통적인 외발뜨기 초지방식은 일본의 쌍발뜨기 방식에 비해 많은 물리적 우수성 을 보이고 있다. 외발뜨기가 쌍발뜨기에 비해 열단장, 신장율, 인열지수 및 내절도 모두가 우수함을 잘 보이고 있다. 섬유의 성질과 관련하여 전체적으로 조명해 보면, 열단장, 인열 지수는 국산닥이 가장 높으며, 내절도는 태국닥이 우수하였고, 중국닥의 경우 모두 매우 불 량함을 알 수 있다. 이것은 아마도 처리중에 과도한 표백을 실시하지 아니하였는가 하는 의구심을 들게한다. 열단장과 신장율 역시 국산닥이 우수하였다. 글씨를 쓸 때, 붓이 나가 는 정도를 마찰게수로 짐작해 보았다. 동 마찰계수와 정 마찰계수는 국산닥이 낮은 편이였 다. 마찰계수가 낮다는 사실은 한지의 표면이 더 매끄럽다고 표현될 수 있는데, 역시 국산닥 으로 제조한 한지가 붓이 나가는데 유리하지 않을까 하는 추측을 할 수 있다. 본 실험결과 는 한지 사용자들의 느낌과 상관관계를 얻어내어서 확인해야 할 것이다. 닥방망이로의 고해나 칼비터에 의한 고해나 큰 물성적으로 큰 차이를 보이지는 않고 있 었다. 단지 섬유의 차이가 고해방식의 차이보다 월등히 크다는 사실을 보이고 있다 이러한 점은 섬유장의 길이에서도 볼 수 있다. 칼비터가 섬유를 절단하기만 하고 닥방망이 고해가 섬유장의 변화를 일으키지 않는다면 틀림없이 평균 섬유장의 차이가 생길것이다.
