The directional algebraic reconstruction technique (DART) using the trigonometric current pattern is one of the image reconstruction algorithms in electrical impedance tomography (EIT). This method needs to compute resistances between electrode pairs as using relation between the injected currents and measured voltages for the reconstruction of the inner image. The delay time is incurred in this process. Therefore this paper proposes modified directional algebraic reconstruction technique (mDART) using the adjacent current pattern instead of the trigonometric current pattern to solve the delay time for initial resistance values. The proposed method uses measured voltages instead of computed resistances in the reconstruction algorithm. Hence this method can eliminate the delay time because it does not use the resistances. In conclusion, the proposed method improves image quality and image reconstruction time by using the adjacent current pattern. To prove performance of the proposed method, we carried on computer simulation of various cases.

Rapid industrial development has led to a serious problem of pollution in the industrial sector. With the increasing social need for environmental protection, research on air pollution prevention equipment for reducing pollutants in industrial processes is actively being undertaken. The deterioration of existent, installed facilities, their increased emission rates, and the strengthening of the effluent quality standards make complying with permissible emission standards difficult. In fact, installing new electric precipitators or complementing existent facilities is inevitable. The expansion and complementation of the installed electrical precipitators have led to improvements in dust collection efficiency, shorter working times, and lower costs. Because of its easy installation and simple manufacturing process, the production method with the discharge electrode of an electric precipitator is widely used. The following conclusions were reached by classifying discharge electrodes into four types based on the production method and mutually comparing them by their dust collection efficiency. None of the four types used in this study were damaged by impact. However, we were able to confirm some strain from the compression sites of both type A and type B. Both type B and type C are expected to have greater dust collection efficiencies than the other models due to their large vibration transmissibility. Moreover, the high vibrational energy is expected to cause rapping damage during its operation. Particularly, in the case of type B, some of the strain was found at the end of the compression site. The coupling schemes of both type C and type D are out of vibration transmissibility. On the other hand, the ability to maintain straightness and solidity of the side is regarded as outstanding and stable. Type D has outstanding on-site workability, considering the presence of locking, structural stability, and work conditions. From these experiments, we determined that type C is the most ideal connection method of discharge electrode, considering its construction period of renovation. Type C is inferior to type D with regard to on-site workability. However, type C has outstanding dedusting transmission with regard to the straightness, solidity maintenance, and vibration of shearing stress.

All the cells on the whole memory array or a block of the memory array in the Flash EEPROM's are erased at the same time using Fowler-Nordheim (FN) tunneling. some of the cels are often overerased since the tunneling is not a self-limited process. In this paper, the optimum doping concentration of the floating gate solve the overerase problem has been studied. For these studies, N-type MOSFETs and MOS capacitors with various doping concentrations of the gate polysilicon have been fabricated and their electrical characteristics have been measured and analyzed. As the results of the experiment, it has been found that the overerase problem can be prevented if the doping concentration of the floating gate is low enough (i.e. below $1.3{\times}10^{18}/cm^3$). It is because the potential difference between the floating gate and the source is lowered due to the formation of the depletion layer in the floating gate and thus the erasing operation stops by itself after most of the electrons stored in the floating gate are extracted. On the other hand, the uniformity of the Vt and the gm has been significantly poor if the coping concentration of the floating, gate is too much lowered (i.e. below $1.3{\times}10^{17}/cm^3$), which is believed to be due to nonuniform loss of the dopants from the nonuniform segregation in the floating gate. Consequently, the optimum doping concentration of the floating gate to suppress the overerase problem and get the uniform Vt and has been found to range from $1.3{\times}10^{17}/cm^3$ to $1.3{\times}10^{18}/cm^3$ in the Flash EEPROM.

A series of experiments was undertaken to learn bionomics and gowt plant resistance of the seedcorn maggot, Delia platura(Meigen), under controlled(24$\pm$$2^{\circ}C$, RH70$\pm$5%, and LD 16:8h)and field conditions. The preoviposition period for the flies was 9 days. The females survived for an average of 50(3-77) and the males for 24(1-59) days. A greater proportion of flies emerged between 6:00 A.M. and 9:00 A.M., soon after the sun rise. After the over-wintering, adults started to emerge in mid-April from pupae located near the soil surface, and peaked in late April by others located deeper. The sex ratio was about 1:1 with total samples of 1,609 females and 1,641 males. Weight of pupae reared from onion was heavier than those from other diets in the laboratory, however its size was samller than that of natural flies. Considerably more eggs were laid near pea seeds than other hosts tested. Among beans, Bapmitkong with blue seed-coat and a cowpea bean strain were preferred for oviposition. 'Namcheon` cultivar was found to be susceptible to attack by the larvae in the laboratory.

Recently in order to protect the ocean environment and to reduce energy consumption, shipbuilders have been developing highly economized ships. This research analyzed the possibility of adopting the onshore absorption refrigerator to offshore ships having a cooling system with refrigerant by using the waiste heat of the engine jacket cooling water instead of compression refrigerators. The results showed that R236fa could be a suitable medium for absorbing the heat of the absorber and condenser in an absorption refrigerator. The cooling system using R236fa achieved a high COP of 0.798, which is 15% and 5% higher than an air cooling system with a cooling tower and a water cooling system with a heat exchanger, respectively. The cooling system with R236fa achieved high efficiency with a 25% reduction in flow rate of LiBr solution and only 15.7% flow rate of cooling medium as compared to the water cooling system. The heating of sea water by the engine jacket water flowing out from the generator can prevent the crystallization of LiBr solution due to the low temperature of sea water.

In this study, we sought to develop an effective cloning system by which human cytochrome $b_5$ (cyt $b_5$) is introduced and expressed in zebrafish. First, the 414 bp human cyt $b_5$ gene was amplified from RNA extracts of HeLa cells using RT-PCR, and the amplicon was subsequently sequenced to confirm that it was intact. Next, cyt $b_5$ was cloned into the pEGFP-N3 vector, which also encodes a fluorescent gene. One-cell stage zebrafish embryos were microinjected with the recombinant vector containing the cyt $b_5$ gene. Fluorescence microscopy confirmed high expression of the fluorescent gene in the injected fry compared to the non-fluorescent control fry. Finally, we extracted RNA from the injected fry and performed RT-PCR to determine whether the human cyt $b_5$ gene is expressed in the transgenic zebrafish. Sequencing analysis further confirmed that the cloned human cyt $b_5$ gene was intact. The transgenic zebrafish model produced in this study will be a useful tool to study therapeutic approaches to cure various diseases related to the deficiency of functional human cyt $b_5$ as well as tools for cloning useful genes in fish.

Cyber penetration attacks can not only damage cyber space but can attack entire infrastructure such as electricity, gas, water, and nuclear power, which can cause enormous damage to the lives of the people. Also, cyber space has already been defined as the fifth battlefield, and strategic responses are very important. Most of recent cyber attacks are caused by malicious code, and since the number is more than 1.6 million per day, automated analysis technology to cope with a large amount of malicious code is very important. However, it is difficult to deal with malicious code encryption, obfuscation and packing, and the dynamic analysis technique is not limited to the performance requirements of dynamic analysis but also to the virtual There is a limit in coping with environment avoiding technology. In this paper, we propose a machine learning based malicious code analysis technique which improve the weakness of the detection performance of existing analysis technology while maintaining the light and high-speed analysis performance applicable to commercial endpoints. The results of this study show that 99.13% accuracy, 99.26% precision and 99.09% recall analysis performance of 71,000 normal file and malicious code in commercial environment and analysis time in PC environment can be analyzed more than 5 per second, and it can be operated independently in the endpoint environment and it is considered that it works in complementary form in operation in conjunction with existing antivirus technology and static and dynamic analysis technology. It is also expected to be used as a core element of EDR technology and malware variant analysis.

Equine coital exanthema caused by equine herpesvirus type 3 (EHV-3) is a venereal disease which seriously drops horse reproduction rates. Here, we isolated EHV-3 from infected horses and investigated their biological characteristics. Initial cytopathic effects such as rounding of cells were detected 48 hours post infection of the virus into RK-13 cells. The infected cells were going to detach from the surface of culture flasks 72 hours post infection. The type of isolated viruses from swabbed samples was EHV-3 by PCR analysis. Glycoprotein G (gG) of isolated EHV-3 has a 99.25 percent similarity rate to that of EHV-3 334/74 control strain. The isolated EHV-3 was named Georo strain. Georo strain consisted of four major proteins including 145 kD, 60 kD, 45 kD and 40 kD, as shown by SDS-PAGE analysis. We hope the newly isolated Georo strain of EHV-3 can be used for studying various aspects of Korean equine coital exanthema.

In this study, the ISO 5660 and ISO 5659 combustion tests were conducted with synthetic resin conduits (CD, VE) and metal conduit (ST) used for wiring work in electrical facilities, which can be installed in ceiling concealed places. Then, fire spreading and evacuation risks were analyzed based on the measured data. In the ISO 5660 test, CD of 120.5 MJ/㎡, VE of 81.9 MJ/㎡, and ST of 4.9 MJ/㎡ were measured. In the ISO 5659 test, the CD 1320, VE 731, and ST 102 were measured, and then the maximum smoke densities were measured for CD 605 s, VE 740 s, and ST 1,200 s. In terms of fire spreading and evacuation risk, the CD conduit, VE conduit, and ST conduit were in order. In the fire spreading risk analysis, total heat emission was calculated as 4,820 MJ/㎡, 4,267 MJ/㎡, and 196 MJ/㎡ for CD, VE, and ST, respectively. Evacuation risk analysis shows at transmittance of 89%, CD is 127 s, VE is 35 s, and ST is 969 s. At transmittance of 79%, representing almost invisible concentration, CD is 157 s and VE is 50 s. The CD and VE conduits had a high fire spreading and evacuation risks, while the ST conduit had little effect on fire spreading and evacuation risk.

The purpose of this paper is to implement a multiple bio-signal central monitoring system based on textile fabrics flexible platform which can obtain and monitor bio signals(heart rate, body temperature, electrocardiography, electromyogram) of workers in special working environments and additional situational information (3-axis acceleration, temperature, humidity, illumination, surrounding image). This system can prevent various accidents that may occur in the remote work environment and provide fast and efficient response by detecting workers' situations in real-time. For it, the textile fabrics flexible platform was made as innerwear or outerwear so that it does not interfere with workers' performance while collecting bio-signal and situational information, and obtained information is sent to the central monitoring system through wireless communication. The central monitoring system is based on wireless medical telemetry service of WMTS (Wireless Medical Telemetry Service); can monitor from 2 to 32 people simultaneously; and was designed so that it can be expanded. Also, in this study, to verify performance of the WMTS communication model, packet transmission rates were compared according to the distance.
