관절잡음의 발생은 측두하악 관절의 구조적, 기능적 이상의 징후로 여겨져왔다. 이러한 관절잡음을 평가하는데 electrovibratography가 비침습적이고 신뢰할만한 방법으로 제시되어 왔으며 이를 통해 관절잡음의 진동수와 진폭 및 전체 에너지 양상을 숫자화하고 도식화 하는 것이 가능하게 되었다. 기존의 연구에서 여러 가지 관절잡음의 양적, 질적 분석이 시도되어 왔다. 이번 연구의 목적은 관절 잡음이 도식화되어 나타나는 frequency spectrum pattern을 integral>300Hz/<300Hz ratio와 함께 분석하는 것이다. 본 실험에서는 Joint Vibration AnalysisTM를 사용하여 측두하악 관절 장애의 증상이 없는 10명의 대조군과 관절 잡음과 동통이 있으나 개구제한을 보이지 않는 정복성 관절원판 변위의 범주에 있는 20명의 실험군에서 관절진동을 분석하였으며 관절진동 기록 시에 Jaw tracker를 함께 사용하여 개폐구시 관절잡음 발생의 위치를 감별하고 치아접촉음을 배제하여 관절잡음을 분석하였다. 그 후 실험군을 frequency spectrum pattern에 따라 4가지 하위 그룹으로 나누어 분석하였다. 실험 결과 실험군과 대조군의 하위 그룹 1에서 유사한 frequency spectrum pattern과 ratio범위를 보였으며 실험군의 하위 그룹 2,3,4 에서는 더 불규칙한 에너지 양상을 보이는 frequency spectrum pattern과 더 큰 ratio가 관찰 되었다. 이번 연구를 통해 Joint Vibration AnalysisTM가 악관절 진동의 특성을 감별하는데 유용함을 알 수 있었고 Joint Vibration AnalysisTM를 이용한 지속적인 진동 분석이 환자 교육뿐 아니라 성공적인 턱관절 기능이상의 진단과 치료에 유용할 것으로 사료된다.

Using a biochemical indicator, the effects of fecal pollution in the estuary of the Nakdong river and in the Chinhae Hay were investigated from summer to winter in 1997-1998. The biochemical indicator used in this study was coprostanol (5-cholestan-3-ol) which is a kind of fecal sterol. It is a useful tracer of fecal pollution, as it is only found in feces of mammals including humans. Coprostanol was less affected by surrounding environments than other indicators of fecal pollution such as fecal coliform or ammonium and was proved to be a good indicator of fecal pollution. Therefore, long-term observations of coprostanol and related compounds could be used as useful indicators for the effects of feces on marine environments and ecosystems.

Rapeseed meal, which is a byproduct of rapeseed oil extraction, improves crop productivity by supplying nutrients to the soil. The present study aimed to manufacture fermented rapeseed meal compost using two effective microbial agents and evaluate their efficiency as fertilizer. To types of fermented rapeseed meal, manufactured using either a bio-carrier or microbial agent, showed no differences in pH, electrical conductivity (EC), and total nitrogen content. However, the contents of $NH_4-N$ and $NO_3-N$ as inorganic nitrogen were increased by 5.6 times and 1.5 times, respectively, after 5 d of fermentation. Rapeseed meal fermented for 5 d was applied to tomato a basal fertilizer and after eight weeks, the plant height increased in all fermented rapeseed treatments compared to that in the chemical fertilizer treatment, and also the quantum yield of photosystem II (PS II) showed the same trend. The total nitrogen content of tomato leaves treated with a microbial fermented rapeseed meal was twice as high as that of that treated with a chemical fertilizer. It was confirmed that the increase in the tomato height was an effect of the rapeseed meal containing inorganic nitrogen, which can easily be absorbed by plants. From these results, it is considered that fermented rapeseed meal manufactured with an effective microbial agent for 5 d showed the highest inorganic nutrient content and greatest growth enhancement in tomato.

Energy consumption in buildings is close to 40% of the total national energy consumption in developed countries such as US and Japan, and Korea accounts for 24% of total energy consumption. In buildings, HVAC can't freely control the cooling flow rate according to the required calorie, so energy is not used efficiently. Therefore, by using the energy saving valve, the flow rate can be controlled by the required amount of heat and the energy can be saved. In this paper, we define basic conditions and develop control and monitoring boards for building energy saving valves based on PIC processor with low power and high cost-effectiveness. The designed board displays and transmits in real time information about two temperature values, flow values and calculated calories for temperature difference measurement. The developed board will be useful for real - time monitoring of the state of the valve in the future and development of the valve for the offshore.

In a traditional hydraulic elevator, elevator car is descended by down control valve, and the oil hydraulic energy must be lost during the descending stroke. In this paper, the performance characteristics of the hybrid type energy saving unit, is used to save the hydraulic energy which is lost during the descending stroke, for a hydraulic elevator are studied. The energy can be reused as the auxiliary power. The results show that the performance characteristics, such as the pressure, flow rate, output current and voltage, efficiency, and the energy recovery rate of the unit are stable and good as the energy recovery rate is 54%, and the energy saving unit is useful to reuse the saved energy during the descending stroke of elevator car. Also, it was confirmed that the energy saving unit can be deployed on a commercial scale.

Generally assessing bone mineral density (BMD) were performed on dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) the same as dual energy CT (DECT) with a rapid-kVp switching. The purpose of this study is to compare the different of BMD value between DEXA and DECT method, and evaluate usefulness of DECT method. Using scanner for BMD measurements were GE, Healthcare Discovery 750 HD for DECT and Hologic QDR 4500W for DEXA. For compare BMD value in each method, scanned lumbar spine phantom and subjects visiting Korean National Cancer Center from April 2015 to December 2015, records of 50 patients. This study was approved by the Institutional Review Board. The mean BMD value measures for spine phantom and for subjects in each scanners presented strong correlation (r=0.948 with p<0.05 for phantom; r=0.635 with p<0.05 and Kendall's tau $({\tau})=0.46$ with p<0.05 for subjects) and linear relationship between DECT and conventional DEXA. DECT technique for BMD measurement will provide a very useful methodology without additional radiation dose.

Photocatalysis, which can be applied to get energy economically, to synthesize useful materials, and to remove environmentally harmful materials by transforming solar energy to chemical energy, has many advantages over conventional heterogeneous catalysis. In this review article, both heterogeneous and homogeneous photocatalyses were discussed focusing on the principles of photocatalysis, the modification of the photocatalysts, hydrogen formation by water decomposition, and environmental application of photocatalysis.

전자의 에너지를 측정하기 위한 분석장치는 원자핵물리뿐만 아니라 화학과 생물학 등 다양한 분야에 걸쳐 매우 유용하게 사용될 수가 있다. 특히 최근에 극고속 과학과 관련해서 매우 짧은 펄스인 아토초 펄스의 발생에 대한 특성평가를 위해 매우 중요한 장치로 사용되고 있다. 그 중 VMI (Velocity Map Imaging) 방법은 TOF (Time of Flight) 방법과 유사하지만, CCD 카메라를 추가로 사용하여 이차원 이미지를 얻음으로써 전자의 운동에너지 및 각도 분포에 대한 정보를 얻을 수 있고 또한 전극에 인가되는 전압은 TOF와 달리 매우 높다. 이번 개발에서는 기존의 전극 렌즈의 geometry와 비교해서 VMI Spectrometer 전극 렌즈의 수를 늘려 multi-electrode concept을 도입함으로써 높은 운동에너지(~1000 eV)를 가진 전자들을 MCP detector상에서 imaging 하는데 있어 높은 공간 분해능(resolution)을 갖도록 설계하고, 또한 높은 사양의 MCP detector 및 CCD 카메라를 이용하여 시간 분해능을 높임으로써 아토초 펄스를 이용한 극고속 실험에 이용 가능하도록 제작하였다.

유비쿼터스 시대의 모바일 전력원으로서 가장 유용한 리튬이차전지의 충전방식은 1991년 리튬이온전지의 상용화 이후 정전류-정전압 방식의 충전법이 고수되어 왔다. 그러나 압전, 열전 등 신재생에너지에 의한 에너지 하베스팅으로 생성되는 전력의 성질이 전압과 전류의 범위가 매우 다양하므로 효율적으로 저장할 수 있는 에너지 매니지먼트 체계가 필요하다. 이에 대한 기반연구로서 리튬이차전지의 고효율 충전을 위한 다양한 방식이 고려되어 왔으며, 본 동향분석서에서는 이러한 충전방식에 따라 리튬이차전지 내부 소재가 받는 영향과 여러 충전방식의 장단점을 분석하고, 최적 충전방식의 기준을 정리한다.
