In this study, simulations based on computational fluid dynamics were performed for self-propulsion performance prediction of a catamaran that has asymmetrical inside and outside hull form and numerous knuckle lines. In the simulations, the Moving Reference Frame (MRF) or Sliding Mesh (SDM) techniques were used, and the rotation angle of the propeller per time step was different to identify the difference using the analysis technique and condition. The propeller rotation angle used in the MRF technique was 1˚ and those used in the SDM technique were 1˚, 5˚, or 10˚. The torque of the propeller was similar in both the techniques; however, the thrust and resistance of the hull were computed lower when the SDM technique was applied than when the MRF technique was applied, and higher as the rotation angle of the propeller per time step in the SDM technique was smaller in the simulations for several revolutions of the propeller to estimate the self-propulsion condition. The revolutions, thrust, and torque of the propeller in the self-propulsion condition obtained using linear interpolation and the delivered power, wake fraction, thrust deduction factor, and revolutions of the propeller obtained using the full-scale prediction method showed the same trend for both the techniques; however, most of the self-propulsion efficiency showed the opposite trend for these techniques. The accuracy of the propeller wake was low in the simulations when the MRF technique was applied, and slight difference existed in the expression of the wake according to the rotation angle of the propeller per time step when the SDM technique was applied.

A two-dimensional cross-section analysis program based on the finite element method has been developed for composite blades with solid, thin-walled and compound cross-sections. The weighted-modulus method is introduced to determine the laminated composite material properties. The shear center and the torsion constant for any given section are calculated according to the Trefftz' definition and the St. Venant torsion theory, respectively. The singular value problem of cross-section stiffness properties faced during the section analysis has been solved by performing an eigenvalue analysis to remove the rigid body mode. Numerical results showing the accuracy of the program obtained for stiffness, offset and inertia properties are compared in this analysis. The current analysis results are validated with those obtained by commercial software and published data available in the literature and a good correlation has generally been achieved through a series of validation study.

New hepatocyte specific copolymers, that have oligosaccharide and biotin residue on the side chain of styrene, were designed and synthesized to use as a multifunctional recognition. In order to measure initial adhesion efficiency, 1mL of copolymer solutions (0.01%, w/v) such as p(VLA-co-VBA) 90 : 10, p(VLA-co-VBA) 80 : 10 and PYLA as a standard were added to polystyrene petri dish, respectively. In the absence and presence of serum, hepatocyte solution of rat by method of Seglen was added. After 60 min, adhesion efficiency was 70%, that is similar to those of the absence of serum. Aggregation capacity between biotin residue in p(VLA-co-VBA) 70 : 30 and avidin was measured by using UV-transmittance.

최근 이상기후 및 국지성 돌발호우 등 여러 가지 형태의 예기치 못한 기상이변으로 인하여 매년 수재해는 빈번히 발생하고 있으며, 이를 위해 하천에서 실시간으로 신속하고 안정성있는 수리학적 하도추적모형의 구축은 지속적으로 연구해야 할 사항이다. 현재 주요 수계 홍수통제소에서는 홍수예보를 위해 주로 수리학적 및 수문학적 모형이 병행되어 적용되고 있으나, 한강과 금강하류를 제외한 나머지 수계에서는 아직까지 개념적 수문학적 모형만을 이용하여 홍수예보를 수행하고 있는 실정이다. 그러나, 신속하고 안정적인 수문학적 모형이 가지고 있는 몇가지 장점에도 불구하고, 실시간 분석 및 신속한 상황대처를 위해서는 정교한 하천흐름해석 기술인 수리학적분석이 반드시 필요하다. 그러나, 대부분의 모형운영자가 직면하게 되는 수리학적 하도추적모형에서 발생하는 수치적 불안정성인 발산의 문제점은 상당한 어려움으로 작용하고 있다. 이는 다양한 원인들이 있을 수 있으나, 대표적으로 단면의 불규칙성을 고려할 수 있다. 실제단면들을 모형에 반영할 때 수치계산의 과정 중에 급확대/급축소/특이단면에 따른 잦은 발산이 발생하게 되며, 이를 방지하기 위해서 단면의 보간 및 평활화 작업 등을 수행하게 된다. 이때 단면의 형상을 최대한 반영한 보간 및 평활화 작업이 되지 않으면, 물리적 개념이 무시된 비합리적인 계산이 수행될 수 있다. 발산의 요인을 제거한 최적의 단면형태를 선정하는 것은 모형의 안정성을 확보하는 데 중요한 요인이 된다. 또한 모형수행에 있어 발산의 요인으로서 하구와 만나게 되는 지점에서의 경계조건으로서 조위영향이 있다. 수리학적 하도추적모형의 중요한 요인인 하구에서의 흐름을 조위와 연계하여 가장 합리적인 하류 경계조건을 제시하는 것이 모형의 발산 방지 및 정확도를 향상시키는데 중요한 인자로 작용하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이와 같은 수리학적 하도추적모형의 안정성 검증을 위하여, 아직까지 수리학적 하도추적모형이 구축되어 있지 않는, 금강상류구간인 용담댐$^{\sim}$대청댐구간을 설정하여 수리학적 모형의 입력자료를 구축하고, 그에 따른 영향검토를 지속적으로 추진할 계획이다. 대상구간에서 향후 검증될 다양한 수리학적 안정화 기술은 향후 타 수계에서 적용시, 신속하고 합리적인 입력자료 구축에 많은 도움을 줄것이며, 현재 하천에서 발생하는 계산의 불안정성을 빠르게 수정하는 것이 가능하다.

HBr and $O_2$ in $Cl_2$ gas ambient for the high density plasma gate etching has been used to increase the performance of gate electrode in semiconductor devices. When an un-doped amorphous silicon layer was used for a gate electrode material, the notching profile was observed at the outer sidewall foot of the outermost line. This phenomenon can be explained by the electron shading effect: i.e., electrons are captured at the photoresist sidewall while ions pass through the photoresist sidewall and reach the oxide surface at a narrowly spaced pattern during the over etch step. The potential distribution between gate lines deflects the ions trajectory toward the gate sidewall. In this study, an appropriate mechanism was proposed to explain the occurrence of notching in the gate electrode of un-doped amorphous silicon.

In this study, the regression analysis method was tested for the estimation of peak stress at stress concentration area in the cervical bone. Submerge type EZ plus implant (Megagen. Daegu, Korea), 4.1 mm in cervical diameter and 9.6 mm in endosseous length, were axisymmetrically modelled together with surrounding alveolar bone of which the width was 10 mm. Vertical force of 100 N was applied to a head of crown above 8.5 mm from the outer surface of the cortical bone. Four different mesh models were composed of differently sized elements in vicinity of sharp corners, and they include 6 stress monitoring points that are located in the same geometrical points regardless of the differences in the meshes. Primary consideration was given to the stresses in the cortical bone surrounding the implant neck. The results showed that virtually all the stresses were concentrated in the cortical bone regardless of mesh designs. The peak stresses were successfully calculated by a regression analysis in a stable manner, as far as the mesh is designed to represent the acute gradient of stresses near the sharp corner.

One of the classic research problems in computer vision is that of stereo, i.e., the reconstruction of three dimensional shape from two or more images. This paper deals with the problem of extracting depth information of non-rigid dynamic 3D scenes from general 2D video sequences taken by monocular camera, such as movies, documentaries, and dramas. Depth of the blocks are extracted from the resultant block motions throughout following two steps: (i) calculation of global parameters concerned with camera translations and focal length using the locations of blocks and their motions, (ii) calculation of each block depth relative to average image depth using the global parameters and the location of the block and its motion, Both singular and non-singular cases are experimented with various video sequences. The resultant relative depths and ego-motion object shapes are virtually identical to human vision.

A general combustion characteristics of forcing nonpremixed jet in laminar flow rates have been conducted experimentally to investigate the effect of forcing amplitude with the resonant frequency of fuel tube. There are two patterns of the flame lift-off feature according to the velocity increasing; one has the decreasing values of forcing amplitude on the lift-off occurrence when a fuel exit velocity is increasing, while the other has the increasing values. These mean that there are the different mechanisms in the lift-off stability of forced jet diffusion flame. Especially, the characteristics of attached jet flame regime are concentrically observed with flame lengths, shapes, flow response and velocity profiles at the nozzle exit as the central figure. The notable observations are that the flame enlogation, in-homing flame and the occurrence of a vortical motion turnabout have happened according to the increase of forcing amplitude. It is understood by the velocity measurements and visualization methods that these phenomena have been relevance to an entrainment of surrounding oxygen into the fuel nozzle as the negative part of the fluctuating velocity has begun at the inner part of the fuel nozzle.

The disturbance of oil-water interface confined between tandem fences caused by a sequence of traveling vortices below the interface is investigated. The traveling vortices are assumed to be those detached from the tip of the fore fence. The potential flow is assumed and the density interface is replaced as a sheet of vortex. The shape of the interface is predicted by tracing a finite number of marker particles placed at the interface. The velocity of the marker particles is determined by the Biot-Savart integral along the vortex sheet plus the contribution from the traveling point vortices. The rate of change of vortex-sheet strength is predicted by using an evolution equation for vorticity. The calculated results obtained for various conditions demonstrate that the large amplitude of interfacial wave following the moving vortek can be generated by the vortices.

The typical miRNA and its nearby host gene are co-expressed by sharing the same promoter. We assumed that miR-7b and its host gene FICT might use an identical promoter for their brain specific gene expression. Sequence comparison of the genomic DNA of mouse miR-7b, human miR-7-3 and their host genes by using the bioinformatic tools revealed high sequence homology and several putative transcription factor-binding sites on the promoter region. In order to probe the hypothesis we used a luciferase vector system into which we cloned the 5' upstream conserved region of miR-7b and FICT. The putative promoter region showed decreased luciferase activity, suggesting that the 5' upstream of miR-7b and FICT contain a negative regulator for gene expression.
