This paper deals with the experimental analysis of the flexural behaviour of encased composite beams with hollow core slabs and channels. The shear force between steel beams and hollow core slabs are transferred by channels. Three full-scale specimens were constructed and tested with different steel beam heights, which were compared with those of previous studies. Based on observation of the experiments, the encased composite beams exhibited full shear connection behaviour without any other shear connectors due to their inherent mechanical and chemical bond stress. Experimental results show a behaviour similar to steel-concrete composite beams with classical connectors: elastic and yield domains, great ductility, flexural failure mode (plastic hinge), low relative movement at steel-concrete interface and all specimens failed in a very ductile manner. Consequently, this study enables the validation of the proposed connection device under static loading and shows that it meets modern structural requirements.

Calli were successfully induced from immature embryos of Citrus junos SIEB. cultured on 1/2 MS medium supplemented with 40.4 BA. Plant were regenerated from immature embryo derived callus on MS medium with 5 $\mu$M BA. The calli were morphologically characterized by two types: one was whitish and the other was yellowish. After 16 weeks of culture, shoots and root were formed on calli. Plantlets were transplanted to soil and successfully grown to a whole plant Also, the arrangement of the cells showed many differences according to developmental stages of callus and organogenesis. The small cells were compact in callus cultured for 6 weeks and the extended cells which divided actively appeared in it after 8 weeks of culture. The globular protrusion of compacted cells occurred in callus after 10 weeks of culture, and the neighboring cells were liquefied. Oil sac surrounded by the liquefied cell was observed in the leaf and was formed by rupture of liquefied cells.

도시 배수 시스템에서 유입유량이 관거의 만관 상태를 초과하거나 하류 흐름 때문에 발생하는 역류의 영향을 받는다면, 관거 시설은 과부하(surcharge) 상태인 압력흐름이 된다. 중력흐름 상태에서 맨홀의 수두 손실은 일반적으로 무시되지만, 과부하 맨홀에서의 수두 손실은 중요하며, 우수 관거 시스템의 전체 손실에 상당한 부분을 차지하게 된다. 이러한 현상은 여러 개의 맨홀을 가지는 도시 배수 시스템에서 특히 중요한 사항이 된다. 따라서 관거 시설 내 맨홀에서의 수리적 에너지 손실에 대한 연구와 보다 구체적인 설치 기준의 제시가 요구되고 있는 실정이다. 특히 배수관거 시스템의 하류부에 설치되는 4방향 합류맨홀은 맨홀으로 유입되는 주 유입관과 측면 유입관의 유입흐름의 영향으로 맨홀 내의 유수교란에 의한 흐름특성이 복잡하므로 이에 따른 흐름특성의 변화를 분석하고 에너지 손실을 연구할 필요가 있다. 그러므로 우수 관거 시스템의 우수 배제 능력을 증가시켜 도심지의 침수를 방지하기 위한 관거시설의 적정 설계 기준이 필요하며, 합리적인 설계 기준을 제시하기 위하여 과부하 4방향 합류 맨홀 내에서의 수두 손실을 분석할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 수리모형 실험의 물질적, 시간적 한계를 극복하고 과부하 4방향 합류맨홀에서의 복잡한 흐름특성을 분석하기 위하여 일반적으로 3차원 유체거동의 특성분석에 많이 사용되는 FLUENT 6.3 모형을 선택하였다. 합류맨홀 및 접합 관거의 기하 모형의 격자망은 수치해석의 안정성 확보를 위하여 맨홀과 연결관의 합류부분에서는 사면체 격자로 구성하고 합류부분을 제외한 구간에서는 6면체 격자로 구성하였으며, 각 격자의 면은 가능한 사각형 또는 삼각형의 형태를 취하도록 하였다. 합류맨홀 모형의 벽면에는 No-Slip 경계조건을 부여하였으며, 유입부에는 속도 조건, 유출부와 맨홀의 자유수면 부분의 경계에서는 대기압 조건을 부여하였다. 수리모형 실험 결과와 비교하기 위하여 유입 관거의 유속 조건을 수리 모형실험의 조건과 동일하게 채택하여 수치모의를 수행하였다. 수치모형의 적용 결과 맨홀 내에서의 유속변화, 수심변화 및 압력변화에 대해서는 수리모형 실험 결과와 유사한 경향을 나타내고 있으며, 수치모형에 의하여 산정된 4방향 합류맨홀에서의 손실계수 값과 수리모형 실험에 의하여 산정된 손실계수 값이 유사하므로 우수 관거 시스템의 4방향 합류맨홀에서의 흐름 변화 및 손실계수 예측하는 데에 있어서 FLUENT 6.3 모형은 사용 가능하리라 판단된다.

Recently, friction stir welding of dissimilar materials has become one of the biggest issues in lightweight and eco-friendly bonding technology. In this study, a lightweight torsion beam axle, which is an automobile chassis component, was used in the welding to cast aluminum material. The friction stir welding process of A357 cast aluminum and FB590 high-strength steel as well as the effects of the process parameters were investigated and optimized using a novel definitive screening design (DSD). ANOVA was used to predict the importance of the process parameters with 13 degradation experiments using the proposed DSD. Also, FSWed experiments were conducted using an optical microscope analysis to investigate the tensile strength behavior in the weld area. In addition to determining the interaction between the tool's rotational speed and the plunge speed, results indicate that the influence of the plunge depth was the most significant.

Vici syndrome is a rare, autosomal recessive multisystem disorder characterized by agenesis of the corpus callosum, cataracts, cardiomyopathy, hypopigmentation, immunodeficiency, and delayed development. We report the case of a 3-year-old boy diagnosed with Vici syndrome. He initially presented with hypotonia and sucking problem. Whole-exome sequencing identified novel compound heterozygous mutations, namely c.2254C>T (p.Gln752Ter) and c.5511-5518+2 del TATGCAAAGT in the EPG5 gene. The diagnostic challenges can be attributed to the diverse clinical manifestations. Thus, whole-exome sequencing is a useful diagnostic tool for the genetically and clinically heterogeneous Vici syndrome. This is the first Korean report of a patient with Vici syndrome.

This paper proposes a hand-eye laser range finder (LRF) based welding plane recognition method for autonomous robotic welding. The robot welding is the process of joining a metal piece and the welding plane along the welding path predefined by the shape of the metal piece. Thus, for successful robotic welding, the position and direction of the welding plane should be exactly detected. If the detected position and direction of the plane is not accurate, the autonomous robotic welding should fail. For precise recognition of the welding plane, a line on the plane is detected by the LRF. For obtaining the line on the plane, the Hough transform is applied to the obtained data from the LRF. Since the Hough transform is based on the voting method, the sensor noise can be reduced. Two lines on the plane are obtained before and after rotation of the robot joint, and then the direction of the plane is calculated by the cross product of two direction vectors of two lines. For verifying the feasibility of the proposed method, the simulation with the robot simulator, RoboticsLab developed by Simlab Co. Ltd., is carried out.

Intraspecific diploid androgenesis was achieved in mud loach (Misgurnus mizolepis) by the inhibition of the first mitotic division using combined thermal treatment. A combined thermal treatment (heat shock at $40.5\;^{\circ}C$ for 120 sec followed by cold treatment at $1\;^{\circ}C$ for 45 min) applied to the 1st metaphase of cell division (28 min post insemination at $25\;^{\circ}C$) successfully recovered viable androgenetic diploidy. Mean hatching success of the androgenetic diploid group was 29.6%, and the average yield out of total eggs taken was about 7% assessed at 1 week of age. However, relatively large variations in the yield of diploid androgenesis were observed among different egg batches used as cytoplasmic donors. Successful diploidization was confirmed by flow cytometric analysis, and parthenogenic reproduction in a paternal exclusive manner was verified with transgene dosage. Significant mortality was found in most androgenetic groups especially from hatch to 1 month of age, although such mortality was stabilized later.

In the construction of nuclear power plants, only 420 MPa reinforcing bars are allowed and, therefore, so many large-diameter bars are placed, which results in steel congestion. Consequently, re-bar works are difficult and the quality of RC structures may be deteriorated. To solve the steel congestion, 550 MPa bars are necessary. Among many items for verifying structural performance of reinforced concrete with 550 MPa bars, the 43 mm hooked bars are examined in this study. All specimens failed by side-face blowout and the side cover explosively spalled at maximum loads. The bar force was initially transferred to the concrete primarily by bond along a straight portion. At the one third of maximum load, the bond reached a peak capacity and began to decline, while the hook bearing component rose rapidly. At failure, most load was resisted by the hook bearing. For confined specimens with hoops, the average value of test-to-prediction ratios by KCI code is 1.45. The modification factor of confining reinforcement which was not allowed for larger than 35 mm bars can be applied to 43 mm hooked bars. For specimens with 70 MPa concrete, the average value of test-to-prediction ratios by KCI code is 1.0 which is less than the values of the other specimens. The effects of concrete compressive strength should be reduced. An equation to predict anchorage capacity of hooked bars was developed from regression analysis including the effects of compressive strength of concrete, embedment length, side cover thickness, and transverse reinforcement index.

Flat-panel x-ray detectors using a phosphor and photoconductor material have been used for application in various medical modalities. In this study, the monte carlo simulation, optical and x-ray response characteristics were investigated in the conversion structure obtained by a columnar CsI:Na scintillation layer with a photosensitive amorphous selenium layer. Firstly, from the measurement of luminescent spectrum of CsI:Na and absorption spectrum of a-Se layer, the signal conversion characteristics are analysed. And also, the x-ray sensitivity is measured and compared with conventional a-Se($500{\mu}m$) as a function of electrical field. From the experimental result, the x-ray sensitivities of the CsI:Na($180{\mu}m$)/a-Se($30{\mu}m$) detector and the a-Se($500{\mu}m$) detector were $7.31nC/mR-cm^{2}$ and $3.95nC/mR-cm^{2}$at an electric field of $10V/{\mu}m$, respectively.

Developed in this study were Octagonal-hollow-section(OHS) struts, whose compressive strengths against flexural and local buckling is higher than H-shape or rectangular-hollow-section(RHS) struts with the same unit weight. OHS members are also advantageous in handling and storing compared to circular hollow sections(CHS). OHS members were fabricated from HR Plates by cold forming and fillet welding. 5 numbers of 20m long OHS struts were assembled, each of which consist of two 9.6m long OHS member and two end connection elements made of cast iron. The compressive strength of the OHS strut was evaluated by comparing the test results, design codes and FEM analysis each other. Test results show that all of the struts have almost same or larger compressive strength than Korean Road Bridge Design Code(KRBDC) (2012). The initial imperfections can be estimated by using measured strains and are turned out to be less than L/450 for all the struts tested. The results of FEM analysis show that the variation of initial imperfection has less effects on the compressive strength for struts with vertical surcharge than for those with self-weight only, while the strength decreases as the initial imperfection increases. As the result of this study, the allowable initial imperfection for 20m long OHS struts is recommended to be less than L/350 on job sites.
