우리가 소비하는 가공 식품은 위생상 안전하도록 살균처리가 이루어진다. 식품 내에 존재할 수 있는 유해 세균은 일정 살균온도에서 살균에 필요한 시간 동안 노출되면 사멸하며, 일반적으로 살균온도가 높을수록 살균에 필요한 시간은 단축된다. 연속살균장치는 혼합 및 저장탱크에 담겨진 식품을 점프로 이동시키면서 가열 열교환기에서 살균온도로 가열하고 단열관을 거치는 동안 살균온도를 유지시켜 살균을 완료한다. 또한 살균된 식품은 냉각용 열교환기에서 상온으로 냉각되며 이 과정에서 회수되는 열은 저장탱크에서 유입되는 식품의 예열에 사용되어 에너지 효율을 제고하는데 사용되기도 한다. 이와 같이 관을 이동하면서 가열되는 살균장치는 기존의 배치식 살균방법에 비하여 균일하게 가열이 이루어지므로 130C의 고온으로 살균할 수 있어서 살균에 필요한 시간을 수초에서 수십초 정도로 단축시킬 수가 있고 그에 따라 열손상을 크게 줄일 수 있다. 또한, 상온으로 냉각된 식품을 포장함으로써 저렴한 가격의 포장용기를 사용할 수 있고 상온에서 저장할 수 있으므로 저장비용이 저렴한 장점이 있다. 그러나, 가공식품에 고기나 야채와 같은 고체 상태의 식품이 함유된 경우에는 액상 식품이 열 교환기에서 순간 가열되며, 고상 식품은 액상식품과의 대류에 의한 열전달로 가열된다. 이 과정에서 고상식품은 이동관 내벽이나 다른 고상식품과 부딪치거나 회전하면서 이동관 내부에서 자유롭게 운동하게 된다. 이 과정에서 액상식품과의 상대이동 속도가 발생하여 이것이 대류열전달에 영향을 미치게 된다. 이 상대이동속도에 따른 대류 열전달계수는 고상식품의 내부온도 결정에 사용되는 연속살균장치의 중요한 설계인자이다. 대류열전달계수는 연속살균장치에서 자유로이 이동하는 고상식품의 중심부의 온도를 측정하여 결정할 수 있으나 이는 현실적으로 어렵다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 고정된 고상식품에 액상식품을 이동시켜 상대속도를 재현하고 액상식품의 온도와 고상식품의 중심온도를 측정하는 장치를 개발하였으며, 각 상대속도와 액상식품의 점도 별 대류열전달계수를 결정하는 프로그램을 유한차분법을 이용하여 개발하였다. 이 장치를 분당 15, 30, 40 리터의 유량에서 유체의 점도를 0에서 15 centipoise 사이의 세 수준에서 정육면체 소고기를 모델 고상식품으로 내부 온도분포를 측정하였으며, 유한차분법 프로그램으로 대류열전달계수를 결정하였다. 대류열전달계수는 792에서 2,107 W/m$^2$로 분석되었다. 대류열전달 계수는 액상식품과의 상대속도가 증가함에 따라서 증가하였고, 점도가 증가함에 따라서는 감소하였다.

Oxidation of pyrite has caused a serious environmental problem such as the acidification of soil and surface water. The mineralogical change of acid sulfate weathering of hydrothermally altered andesite which contained 11.8% of pyrite and was exposed in atmosphere by lay out works for a residential area and a golf course was studied using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and electronmicroscopes. Ferrihydrite, jarosite, and an unidentified water soluble phase were observed as weathering products of the andesite. Under electronmicroscopes, showed aggregate of platy microcrystals; jarosite was platy morphology: water soluble Phase was columnar. Morphology of fresh Pyrite in the andesite changed from pyritrohedron to cubic in its frequency with increasing its particle size. The drainage water was acidic (pH 3.5) and in an equilibrium state with both ferrihydrite and jarosite.

In Computer Graphics, to select the element for modeling is very important in aspect of real-time processing of photorealistic images. Especially in modeling of informal objects, the criteria of choice are such as the minimum number of data, the easy rendering technique, and the expansibility. The metaball model which is one of the methods for modeling the implicit surface is excellent in modeling the complicated surface with a few data. However, a greater number of data are required for modeling objects that consist of planar surfaces with metaballs than with polygons. In this paper, we propose the new skeletal element, metacube which has the merits of metaball and improves the modeling ability of informal objects containing planar surfaces. A metacube has two parameters to change freely its shape from the cube to the sphere and can easily do the modeling of objects with curved surfaces and plane surfaces.

The effects of solid surface roughness on the contact angle of a nanofluid droplet were experimentally investigated. The experiments were conducted using the solid surface of a 10 mm cubic copper block and the nanofluid of water mixed with CuO nanoparticles. The experimental results showed that the contact angles of nanofluid droplets were lower than those of water droplets and that the contact angle of the nanofluid droplet increased with the solid surface roughness. Furthermore, it was found that the contact angles of water droplets on the solid surface quenched by both water and the nanofluid were lower than those of water droplets on the pure solid surface. However, significant differences were not observed between the contact angles on the solid surfaces quenched by water and the nanofluid.

Porous alumina prepared by anodization has been widely studied since it shows very regular nanostructures at inexpensive prices. In this article, porous alumina is obtained by anodization of aluminum in the oxalic acid. After the first formed oxide is selectively removed from the aluminum substrate, the hexagonal nanostructures on the fresh aluminum are converted to nanodots by the second anodization in boric acid. Nanodots are arrayed in the convex of the hexagonal nanostructures. The optimization condition for the fabrication of nanodots with a height of 20 nm is investigated in detail. Subsequently, a gold film is deposited on the nanodots, resulting in the formation of gold nanodots arrays which are probably interesting substrate for biosensor applications.

The 360 VR video has a format of a stereoscopic shape such as an isometric shape or a cubic shape or a cubic shape. Although these formats have different characteristics, they have in common that the resolution is higher than that of a normal 2D video. Therefore, it takes much longer time to perform coding/decoding on 360 VR video than 2D Video, so parallel processing techniques are essential when it comes to coding 360 VR video. HEVC, the state of art 2D video codec, uses Wavefront Parallel Processing (WPP) technology as a standard for parallelization. This technique is optimized for 2D videos and does not show optimal performance when used in 3D videos. Therefore, a suitable method for WPP is required for 3D video. In this paper, we propose WPP coding/decoding method which improves WPP performance on cube map format 3D video. The experiment was applied to the HEVC reference software HM 12.0. The experimental results show that there is no significant loss of PSNR compared with the existing WPP, and the coding complexity of 15% to 20% is further reduced. The proposed method is expected to be included in the future 3D VR video codecs.

In this study, the characteristic of a 3-D micro-woven material, which is one of the newly developed periodic open-cell structure, is analyzed through various computational simulations. To increase the accuracy of the numerical simulations, the distance between each directional wire is parameterized using six design variables, and its model geometry is precisely discretized using tetrahedron elements. Using the improved computational model, the material properties of the mechanical, thermal, and fluidic behavior are investigated using commercial software and compared with the previous experimental results. By changing the space between the x- and y-directional wires, a parametric test is performed to determine the tendency of the change in the material properties. In addition, the correlation between two different material properties is investigated using the Ashby chart. The result can further be used in determining the optimal pattern and wire spacing in 3-D micro-woven materials.

In this study, a procedure was introduced to estimate strength and deformation modulus of the 3-D discrete fracture network(DFN) systems using the distinct element method(DEM). Fracture entities were treated as non-persistent square planes in the DFN systems. Systematically generated fictitious fractures having similar mechanical characteristics of intact rock were combined with non-persistent real fractures to create polyhedral blocks in the analysis domain. Strength and deformation modulus for 10 m cube domain of various deterministic and stochastic 3-D DFN systems were estimated using the DEM to explore the applicability of suggested method and to examine the effect of fracture geometry on strength and deformability of DFN systems. The suggested procedures were found to effective in estimating anisotropic strength and deformability of the 3-D DFN systems.

The effective permeability and the representative element volume(REV) of fracture network model were evaluated based on the parameters such as permeability tensor, principal permeability and the direction of principal permeability. The effective permeability ranges between the harmonic mean and the arithmetic mean of the local permeabilities of subdivided blocks. From the numerical experiments, which were for investigating the influence of model volume on the variation of flux for the cubic models, it was found that the variation of flux became reduced as the model volume approached REV. The variation of groundwater flux into the tunnel in the fracture network model was mainly dependent on the ratio of the tunnel length to model size rather than REV. And it was found that groundwater flux into the tunnel was not completely consistent between the fracture network model and the equivalent porous media model, especially when the ratio of the tunnel length to model size is small.

The Skeleton Tower problem is an example of a curriculum that integrates algebra and geometry. Finding the number of the cubes in the tower can be approached in more than one way, such as counting arithmetically, drawing geometric diagrams, enumerating various possibilities or rules, or using algebraic equations, which makes the tasks accessible to students with varied prior knowledge and experience. So, it will be a good topic which can be used in the elementary grades if we exclude the method of using algebraic equations. The purpose of this paper is to propose some points which can be considered with attention by gifted children education teachers by analyzing the 4th Skeleton Tower problem solutions made by 3rd and 4th graders in their selection test who applied for the education of gifted children in math at J University for the year of 2010.
