In this study, a smooth flat surface, low fin, Turbo-B, and Thermoexcel-E surfaces are used to examine the effect of the flow velocity on the pool boiling heat transfer coefficients (HTCs) and critical heat fluxes (CHFs). HTCs and CHFs are measured on a smooth square heater of $9.53{\times}9.53mm^2$ at $60^{\circ}C$ in a pool of pure water at various fluid velocities of 0, 0.1, 0.15, and 0.2 m/s. Test results show that for all surfaces, CHFs obtained with flow are higher than those obtained without flow. CHFs of the low fin surface are higher than those of the Turbo-B and Thermoexcel-E surfaces due largely to the increase in surface area and sufficient fin spaces for the easy removal of bubbles. CHFs of the low fin surface show even 5 times higher CHFs as compared to the plain surface. On the other hand, both Turbo-B and Thermoexcel-E surfaces do not show satisfactory results because their pore sizes are too small and water bubbles easily cover them. At low heat fluxes of less than $50kW/m^2$, HTCs increase as the flow velocity increases for all surfaces. In conclusion, a low fin geometry is good for application to steam generators in nuclear power plants.

The effect of high and low temperatures on seedling quality while raising of paprika (Capsicum annuum L.) seedlings, and their early development after planting was investigated. The control raising seedling temperature (RST) was $23^{\circ}C$; high temperature, $31^{\circ}C$; and low temperature, $15^{\circ}C$ throughout the raising seedling period. At $15^{\circ}C$ and $30^{\circ}C$, plant height, stem diameter, fresh weight, dry weight, number of leaves, and seedling leaf area were significantly lower than those at $23^{\circ}C$. At 4 weeks after planting, seedling's growth characteristics showed a similar pattern. Compared to $23^{\circ}C$, seedlings raised at $15^{\circ}C$ and $30^{\circ}C$ had an increased dry weight and leaf area per unit time after planting than during the seedling raising period. At 4 weeks after planting, crop growth rate and leaf area index were unaffected by RST, and relative growth rate and net assimilation rate at RSTs of $15^{\circ}C$ and $31^{\circ}C$ were higher than those those at RST of $23^{\circ}C$. At an RST of $15^{\circ}C$, growth speed and net assimilation rates were higher after planting than before planting, according to increased photosynthetic rate. Thus, high and low temperatures during the seedling raising period significantly reduced seedling growth and plant growth after planting. After planting, seedlings raised at $15^{\circ}C$ recovered more quickly than did those raised at $31^{\circ}C$.

This study was designed to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of Rhubarb extracts ($Rubenal^{(R)}$) in dogs with chronic renal failure (CRF). Client-owned 40 dogs with CRF graded International renal interest Society (IRIS) II-III were enrolled in this study. The dogs were equally allocated and blindly administered with $Rubenal^{(R)}$ or placebo. The following items were evaluated at day 0, 30, 90 and 180: body condition score (BCS), clinical score (appetite, polydipsia/polyuria, quality of life score), hemogram (WBC, RBC, PCV), serum biochemistry (ALT/AST, ALP, Creatinine/BUN, total protein, albumin), serum electrolyte (Na, K, Cl, Ca, P), systolic blood pressure, urinalysis (UPC, USG) and IRIS stage. In this study, we found that the $Rubenal^{(R)}$ preparation was well tolerated by dogs and induced no adverse effects. Statistically significant improvements were observed in clinical score (quality of life score by vet and clients), serum BUN and creatinine levels, serum phosphorus concentration, level of proteinuria, and the IRIS score of CRF in dogs after 6 month of treatment of $Rubenal^{(R)}$. Those findings suggested that the Rhubarb extracts can improve the clinical signs of CRF (i.e. azotemia, hypertension, proteinuria, hyperphosphoremia) and the quality of life (i.e. BCS, clinical score) and can retard the progression of CRF in dogs. Therefore the Rhubarb extracts can be a good supplementary drug for treating dogs with subclinical and clinical renal diseases. However, care should be taken for interpreting our result, because this study is not double-blinded controlled study but pilot study.

하수관거 설계시나 단지개발사업, 그리고 하수관거정비사업과 같이 오수처리시설의 적정 규모 결정을 위해서는 정확한 상수사용량 및 오수발생량 원단위가 요구되지만 국내의 경우 이러한 원단위에 대한 기초자료 부족과 자료의 신빙성 결여로 인해 적정 원단위를 결정하는데 어려움이 있다. 이러한 관점에서 단지개발이 이루어지는 도시에서는 도시의 규모, 입지조건, 기후조건, 생활양식 등 다양한 요인들이 고려된 오수발생패턴 및 발생량 조사가 필요하며, 조사된 원단위는 오수처리시설의 적정 규모 결정뿐 아니라 침입수/유입수 분석 및 하수관거정비에 대한 성과예측에도 활용될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 현재 단지개발 및 하수관거정비사업이 진행중인 하남시의 표본이 될 수 있는 대표구역을 선정하고 그 지역에서 조사지역을 세부적으로 분류하여 각 지역별 오수발생특성을 분석하였다. 대상지역인 하남시는 총면적의 $97\%$가 자연녹지 및 생산녹지이며, 나머지 $3\%$는 일반주거지역 및 일반 상업지역으로 나뉜다. 그리고 도시계획상 공장지역으로 편성된 부분이 없어 앞으로도 하남시 대부분의 면적이 녹지와 주거/상업지역으로 구성될 것이다. 이러한 하남시의 특성을 고려하여 조사지역은 공장지역을 제외한 일반주거지역, 밀집주거지역, 영업지역으로 분류하였으며 이렇게 분류된 지역은 각각 오수발생패턴 및 오수농도에 대한 조사를 실시하여 오수발생특성을 분석하였고, 조사지역별 인구수 조사와 연계하여 원단위 자료를 추출하였다. 이렇게 조사된 자료들을 통해 침입수/유입수 분석에 요구되는 오수전환율, 야간생활하수량 비율을 산정하였으며, 차후 단지개발 및 관거정비 후에 발생하는 오수 발생특성과 비교분석을 통하여 하남시 지역의 오수발생특성에 대한 신뢰성 있는 자료로 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

Previously, we demonstrated that estradiol (E$_2$) was produced by medium sized follicles of Rana nigromaculata and Rana dybowskii in vitro. Present experiments were carried out to determine when the growing follicles have obtained the ability to produce E$_2$. Follicles in different growth stages were isolated and cultured for 6 hours in the presence or absence of frog pituitary homogenates (FPH, 0.1 pituitary/2m1) or various steroid precursors (200 ng/2m1). levels of progesterone (P$_4$), 17 -hydroxyprogesterone (17$\alpha$-OHP), androstenedione (AD), testosterone Cr) or E$_2$ in the medium were measured by RIA. The smallest follicles failed to produce steroids, whereas the smaller follicles produced considerable amounts of steroids (211 pg/follicle), and the medium sized follicles produced a large amounts of steroids (1653 pg/follicle) in response to FPH. Addition of pregnenolone (P5) resulted in a marked increase in P$_4$ but not in other steroids by the smallest follicles whereas the treatment resulted in a marked increase in P$_4$, 17$\alpha$-OHP, AD, T and E$_2$by the smaller and medium follicles. When the amounts of steroids are calculated on the basis of unit surface area (pg/mm$_2$), the ability of the smallest follicles to produce P$_4$ from P5 was similar to those of smaller and medium sized follicles. However, the smallest follicles failed to metabolize P$_4$ to other steroids whereas the smaller and medium follicles did. Taken together, the data suggest that the smallest follicles do not response to FPH in terms of steroid production but they have capacity to convert P5 to P$_4$ and that the smaller follicles have potential to produce E$_2$ although much less efficient than medium sized follicles.

When taking PET/CT, the distortion of the image happens due to the movement of a lesion with respiration. In this study, the experiment was conducted to see if the change in SUV value and distortion of the image could be somewhat corrected by comparing the image which was not compensated with that of the region of lung nodule, compensated with respiration compensation Plumonary Toolkit possessed by this hospital. The records of 17 patients with Lung cancer between May and August 2008. As the result of the experiment, Max SUV value increased by from 4.08% minimum to 43.10% maximum, and the average Max SUV value of lung nodule increased from 6.07 to 7.00(12.16%). In the case of respiration compensation PET/CT, the distortion of the image improved. As there was no significance in the comparison of SCC and Adenocarcinom respectively, though there was a statistically significant level(P<0.05) before and after respiration compensation in SCC-Adenocarcinoma, there was an effect in respiration compensation regardless of Cell types. As the result of the experiment, it was found out that the distortion of standard intake coefficient value and the image was compensated Therefore, the diagnosis of lung cancer and follow up will be able to help.

The manufacturing process of metal membrane made of only metal mesh and both metal mesh and powder with using rolling process have been studied. In the rolling of metal mesh, selected metal meshes were rolled with the reduction ratio of 10%, 20%, and 30%, respectively. Such rolling process resulted in the decrease of mesh pore size through reduction the cross sectional area of mesh and changing the diameter of mesh wires. Also, it enhanced the filtration ratio of rolled mesh which is almost same as the filtration ratio of upper grade unrolled mesh and the reliability of membrane by making pore size distribution become more uniform. In fabricating metal powder layer onto metal mesh, using PVA(polyvinyl alcohol) as a binder of powder, drying the metal powder layer at $100^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr, and sintering it at $1,000^{\circ}C$ for 3 hr in vacuum were to be optimum conditions for obtaining good quality of metal powder layer on metal mesh with high pore density but no crack. With additional rolling of metal powder layer on metal mesh with 30% reduction before sintering, metal membrane which filtration ratio is about $0.7{\mu}m$ has been successfully manufactured.

The analysis of optimal infiltration path is one of the representative fields in which the GIS technology can be useful for the military purpose. Usually the analysis of the optimal path is done with network data. However, for military purpose, it often needs to be done with raster data. Because raster data needs far more computation than network data, it is difficult to apply the methods usually used in network data, such as Dijkstra algorithm. The genetic algorithm, which has shown great outcomes in optimization problems, was applied. It was used to minimize the detection probability of infiltration route. 2D binary array genes and its crossover and mutation were suggested to solve this problem with raster data. 30 tests were performed for each population size, 500, 1000, 2000, and 3000. With each generation, more adoptable routes survived and made their children routes. Results indicate that as the generations increased, average detection probability decreased and the routes converged to the optimal path. Also, as the population size increases, more optimal routes were found. The suggested genetic algorithm successfully finds the optimal infiltration route, and it shows better performance with larger population.

The high-tension bolted joints are clamped by the axial force which approaches the yielding strength. The introduced axial force is transmitted to the connection members pass through washer. The transferred load in connections is balanced to the compressive stress of plates, axial force in bolts and the external loads. In this mechanism, the compressive stress and slip load we dominated by the effective stiffness of bolted joints and plates. In general the effective stiffness is specified to product to the effective area and elasticity modulus in connections. In this reason, the conic projection formular which is assumed that the axial force in bolts is distributed to the cone shape and that region is related to the elastic deformation mechanism in connections, was proposed. But it conclude what kind of formula is justified. Therefore in this paper, the fatigue tests are performed to the high tension bolted joints and inspected to the phase on the friction face. And using the FEM and numerical method, it is analyzed and approximated to the compressive stress distribution and its region. Moreover, it is estimated to the effective area and to the relation the friction area to the effective compressive distribution region.

근래 이상기후에 의한 강우량 증대와 도시화에 따른 첨두유출량의 증대 및 도달시간의 단축은 기존의 유수지만으로 도시홍수를 대처하는데 그 한계점에 다다르게 되었다. 1990년대에 들어 각종 우수유출 저감시설의 활용으로 이상의 문제를 해결하고자 하는 노력들이 시작되었으며, 현재 신규개발지에 저류지와 같은 우수유출저감시설 설치를 법제도적으로 의무화 하고 있어, 전국적으로 천여개소의 저류지가 시설되어 있거나 계획 중에 있다. 저류지는 개발로 인해 증가된 첨두유출량을 개발전의 상태로 저감시키기 위하여 임시 또는 상시 저류하거나 저류능력 이상의 유출량에 대해서는 암거방류시설을 통해 하류부의 하천 또는 하도로 방류시키는 역할을 수행하는 수공구조물로서 일반적으로 저류지 계획 및 설계는 첨두유출량 증가분에 대해 초점을 맞추고 있을 뿐 방류시설에 대한 구체적인 설계는 이루어지지 않고 있는 실정이다. 또한 현재 국내에는 저류지 방류시설로 주로 사용되는 암거에 관한 설계규정이나 기법은 미미한 상태로, 한국도로공사(1991)에서 발표한 "도로배수계획"을 이용하고 있으며, 이는 미국 연방도로국(FHWA, 1985)에서 발표한 설계기법을 그대로 인용하고 있다. 즉, 지형 또는 현장 여건에 따라 암거 흐름의 8형식 중 하나의 형식으로 결정하고, 그 형식에 따라 관련도표를 이용한 시산법 또는 도식해법을 적용하여 유입부 상류수위를 산정함으로써 암거설계가 이루어진다. 하지만 이러한 암거설계 방식은 도로 배수암거에 적합한 것으로 저류지 배수암거에 적용하기에는 무리가 있다고 본다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 저류지의 일반적인 특성상 암거흐름 8형식 중 Class-II군의 암거 상류부 수위가 잠수된 조건 즉, 평상시 저류지가 일정수위 이상의 저류량을 유지하고 있는 상태에서 저류지 암거방류시설의 대표적인 설계인자인 암거직경, 암거경사, 암거경사, 하류단 수위조건의 변화에 따른 상류부 수위변화를 유량별로 분석해 보았다. 방류 암거의 개수를 고려하기 위하여 암거상류부 수위와 암거직경의 관계해석 시 암거단면적을 이용하여 분석하였으며, 각각의 유량별로 상류부 수위와 암거단면적의 관계를 회귀식으로 제시하였다. 암거상류부 수위와 암거경사의 관계를 분석한 결과 암거경사가 5~20%로 변화할 때 암거상류부 수위의 변화는 2~5%정도의 매우 작은 변화를 보임을 확인할 수 있었으며, 암거길이의 경우는 해석 조건의 특성상 상류부 수위에 영향이 전혀 나타나지 않았다. 암거상류부 수위와 암거하류단 수위의 관계에서 암거상류부 수위는 암거하류단 수위가 암거직경과 퇴사위 높이의 합보다 암거하류단의 수위가 높아지는 시점부터 암거하류단 수위에 비례해서 증가되는 결과를 알 수 있었다.
