Non-point source control system which had been designed only for oil-water separation in the fields of oil refinery and garage was upgraded in this research for the removal of runoff pollutants in impervious urban area. Pollutants including oil from driveway and bridge were eliminated by two types of pathway in the system. One is the coalescence mechanism that the oil droplets in the runoff come into contact with each other in the spiral buoyant media surface and form larger coalesced droplets of oil that are carried upstream to the oil layer. The other is the precipitation that solids in runoff were settled by gravity in the system. In this research, coalescing characteristics of oil and water separation were investigated through image analyses, and efficiencies of the non-point source control system were evaluated using dust in driveway and waste engine oil. Media made of high density and high molecular weight polyethylene was indeterminate helical shape and had sleek surface by analysing SEM photographs and BET. Surface area and specific gravity of media which were measured directly were 1,428 $mm^2$ and 45.3 $kg/m^3$ respectively. From the image analyses of the oil droplets photographs which were taken by using microscope, it was proved clearly that the coalescence was the main pathway in the removal of oil from the runoff. Finally, the performances of the non-point source control system filled up with the media were suspended solid $86.6\sim95.2%$, $COD_{Cr}$, $87.3\sim95.4%$, n-Hexane extractable materials $71.8\sim94.8%$ respectively.

Selecting appropriate materials can be significantly important to make different image in the product and also give distinguished express to the users. A material for the ceramic product surface consists of the combination between a glaze and a body, and each attribution of materials and the way of the combination creates different texture and color. This study analyzes the difference between visually and tactually sensibility of ceramic surface to through the simulating both visual and tactual stimulation by verbal evaluation method. Totally 13 adjectives are selected from homepage of local and global ceramic product brand. And totally 12 ceramic samples are created with the consideration of color, glossiness and roughness. These 12 samples are the combination between four ceramic bodies (White porcelain, Celadon_c, Sancheong and Black soil) and three glazes (Transparent, Celadon_g, Black glaze). The respondents of first survey were asked to rub, touch and hold before evaluating the sensibility of ceramic surface and other respondents of second survey were asked to evaluate visual images of 9 samples which showed meaningfully difference from first survey. The surface which scored the highest sensibility with the first survey was 'pure' on a surface of White porcelain body with Transparent glaze, and the lowest was also 'pure' on a surface of Black soil body with Transparent glaze. The highest score in the second survey was the same result as the first survey, but the lowest scored 'casual' and the surface was Black soil body with Celadon glaze. By the comparison with two survey results, not every sensibility is same result shown as the first survey and the second survey, but the tactile sensibilities such as 'artistic', 'luxurious', 'sensuous', 'romantic' and 'mysterious' can be experienced by via visual materials of ceramic surfaces.

Residual life assessment of reformer tubes of mod HP steel used in the refinery and petrochemical industry were investigated by quantitative metallographic evaluation method. Area fractions of precipitated carbides were measured by using surface replication and its relationship with the remaining life of the tube was investigated. The microstructures of the virgin and other tubes were examined using optical microscopy (OM) for service periods of 1.8, 6.0, 7.2, 8.5, 9.7, and 16.2 years at 950 ℃ and the area fractions of the precipitates were measured by image analysis using ImageJ software. As the area fraction of the precipitates increased, the residual life was decreased accordingly. The results showed that the LMP was the highest in the virgin and the LMP decreased as the service time increased and the residual life decreased. A regressional equation showing the relation between the area fraction of carbides and LMP was experimentally derived. The obtained relationship can be used with the surface replication method for on-site residual life assessment.

위상절연체(Bi2Te3)와의 격자상수 불일치 비율이 서로 다른 Si (111)와 Ge (111) 기판을 선택하여 Bi3Te3 박막의 성장 조건을 찾고 이에 따른 특성 분석을 수행하였다. 시료 제작은 초고진공 분위기에서 MBE를 이용하였고, AFM, XRD와 XPS로 각각 구조적 변화, 결정 상태 및 화학적 상태를 분석하였다. 우선 Si 위에 형성된 Bi2Te3의 경우, 초기 박막이 형성된 후, 증착 시간이 증가함에 따라 섬(island)모양의 구조물들이 step edge 부분에 분포되는 모습을 AFM 이미지에서 확인하였다. 형성된 박막의 스텝 단차는 약 1 nm 또는 이 값의 정수 배였고, 이것은 Bi2Te3 unit cell의 quintuple layer (QL) 값과 일치하였다. 또한 측정된 XRD pattern으로 Bi2Te3가 hexagonal 구조의 c-축에 따라 결정성이 이루어졌음을 확인할 수 있었다. XPS 스펙트럼에서는 Bi 4f가 높은 에너지 방향으로 2.3 eV, Te 3d는 낮은 에너지 방향으로 약 0.7 eV 만큼 구속 에너지의 화학적 이동이 나타남을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 결과는 Si 위에 Bi2Te3 박막이 높은 결정성을 가지고 형성되었다는 것을 의미한다. 또한 Si (111) 기판보다 Bi2Te3 결정과 격자상수 불일치의 비율이 상대적으로 작은 Ge (111)을 기판으로 하여 Bi2Te3 박막을 성장시켜 두 표면에서의 박막 성장의 특성을 비교, 논의할 것이다.

우리나라는 산지가 많고 산지하천을 따라 대부분의 도로와 농경지 또는 주거지가 분포하고 있어 집중호우시 산지하천의 피해가 심각한 실정이다. 하천계획에서는 설계홍수량을 산정하여 하천제방 등의 하천설계에 활용하는데 이 홍수량을 산정하기 위해서는 장기간에 걸친 유출자료를 확보하여야 한다. 홍수자료 생산에서는 수위-유량관계곡선 자료가 필요하며 이는 수위와 유속을 동시에 측정하여 취득된다. 경사가 급한 산지하천에서 집중호우시에 유속을 측정을 할 경우 위험에 노출되기 쉽고 시간과 인력이 많이 소요되므로 디지털 영상을 이용한 유속측정방법을 적극 활용하여야 한다. 이 방법에서 가장 중요한 것은 영상내의 정보를 이용하여 실제 부유물의 이동거리를 산정하는 것이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 실내실험을 통해 개수로에서 부자의 실제이동거리를 이론적으로 결정할 수 있는 방법을 도출하였다. 그림 1과 같이 개수로에서 부자의 이동거리를 측정하고 그림 2와 같이 실제이동거리와 이론이동거리의 관계를 나타낸 나타내었다. 이는 본 연구의 부자를 이용할 경우 영상이미지에서 이론적인 부자 이동거리 산정이 가능함하고 개수로에서 표면유속측정에 활용될 수 있을 것이다. 일반적으로 유속과 수면변동이 큰 개수로에서 부자이동거리에 대한 추가적인 연구가 필요하다.

Hair is made of proteins containing various amino acids. Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is believed to be responsible for the most damaging effects of sunlight, and also plays an important role in hair aging. The purpose of this study was to investigate the changes in morphological and chemical structures after ultraviolet B (UVB) irradiation of human hair. The UVB-irradiated hair showed characteristic morphological and structural changes, compared to those of the normal hair. The result from a scanning electron microscope (SEM) equipped with an energy dispersive X-ray diffractometer (EDX) showed that the scale of UV-irradiated hair appeared to be rough and the amount of oxygen element was higher than that of the normal hair. Fluorescence and three dimensional (3D) topographical images were obtained by a confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM). In 3D images, the green emission intensity of normal hair was much higher than that of fluorescing UVB-irradiated hair. The intensity of green emission reflects the intrinsic fluorescence of hair protein. Also, a fluorescent imaging method using fluorescamine reagent was used to identify the free amino groups resulting from a peptide bond breakage in UVB-irradiated hair. Strong blue fluorescence of UVB-irradiated hair, which indicates a very high level of amino groups, was observed by CLSM. Therefore, the fluorescamine as an extrinsic fluorescence could provide a useful tool to identify the peptide bond breakage in UVB-irradiated hair. Infrared image mapping was also employed to assess the cross-sections of normal and UVB-irradiated specimens to examine the oxidation of disulfide bonds. The degree of peak areas with strong absorbance for the disulfide mono-oxide was spread from the outside to the inside of hair. The spectroscopic techniques used alone, or in combination, launch new possibilities in the field of hair cosmetics.

Understanding the pore structure including pore shape and connectivity in unconventional reservoirs is essential to increase the recovery rate of unconventional energy resources such as shale gas and oil. In this study, we found analysis condition to probe the nanoscale pore structure in shale reservoirs using Focused Ion Beam (FIB) and Ion Milling System (IMS). A-068 core samples from Liard Basin are used to probe the pore structure in shale reservoirs. The pore structure is analyzed with different pretreatment methods and analysis condition because each sample has different characteristics. The results show that surface milling by FIB is effective to obtain pore images of several micrometers local area while milling a large-area by IMS is efficient to observe various pore structure in a short time. Especially, it was confirmed that the pore structure of rocks with high content of carbonate minerals and high strength can be observed with milling by IMS. In this study, the analysis condition and process for observing the pore structure in the shale reservoirs is established. Further studies are needed to perform for probing the effect of pore size and shape on the enhancement of shale gas recovery.

The lunar exploration autonomous vehicle operates based on the lunar topography information obtained from real-time image characterization. For highly accurate topography characterization, a large number of training images with various background conditions are required. Since the real lunar topography images are difficult to obtain, it should be helpful to be able to generate mimic lunar image data artificially on the basis of the planetary analogs site images and real lunar images available. In this study, we aim to artificially create lunar topography images by using the location information-based style transfer algorithm known as Wavelet Correct Transform (WCT2). We conducted comparative experiments using lunar analog site images and real lunar topography images taken during China's and America's lunar-exploring projects (i.e., Chang'e and Apollo) to assess the efficacy of our suggested approach. The results show that the proposed techniques can create realistic images, which preserve the topography information of the analog site image while still showing the same condition as an image taken on lunar surface. The proposed algorithm also outperforms a conventional algorithm, Deep Photo Style Transfer (DPST) in terms of temporal and visual aspects. For future work, we intend to use the generated styled image data in combination with real image data for training lunar topography objects to be applied for topographic detection and segmentation. It is expected that this approach can significantly improve the performance of detection and segmentation models on real lunar topography images.

IR thermography is a non-invasive method and used for the visualization of the surface temperature of the model. However, this technique only derives 2D results and not quantitative data. The goal of this study is to apply the 3D mapping technique for IR thermography. The wind tunnel model is an ogive-cylinder with a wind speed of 20 m/s ~ 80 m/s and the angle of attack ranging from $0^{\circ}$ to $90^{\circ}$. The real location of the model was made to correspond with the position of the IR image using the makers. Based on this result, quantitative results were obtained. The 3D mapping method was verified by comparing the separation point and the theoretical value.
