As most of small fishing boats made of FRP have been constructed by experience in Korea, some structural safety problems have been occurred occasionally. To improve the structural strength and reduce the costs for construction and operation, optimum design for small fishing boat was carried out in this study. The weight of fishing boat and the main dimensions of structural members are chosen as objective function and design variables, respectively. By the combination of global and local search methods, a hybrid optimization algorithm was developed to escape the local minima and reduce CPU time in analysis procedure, and finite element analysis was performed to determine the constraint parameters at each iteration step in optimization loop. Optimization results were compared with the real existing fishing boat, and the effects of optimum design were examined from points of view; structural strength, material cost, etc.

최근, 비정질 산화물 반도체 thin film transistor (TFT)는 수소화된 비정질 실리콘 TFT와 비교하여 높은 이동도와 큰 on/off 전류비, 낮은 구동 전압을 가짐으로써 빠른 속도가 요구되는 차세대 투명 디스플레이의 TFT로 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 한편, 기존의 Thin-Film-Transistor 제작 시 우수한 박막을 얻기 위해서는 $500^{\circ}C$ 이상의 높은 열처리 온도가 필수적이며 이는 유리 기판과 플라스틱 기판에 적용하는 것이 적합하지 않고 높은 온도에서 수 시간 동안 열처리를 수행해야 하므로 공정 시간 및 비용이 증가하게 된다는 단점이 있다. 이러한 점을 극복하기 위해 본 연구에서는 간단하고, 낮은 제조비용과 대면적의 박막 증착이 가능한 용액공정을 통하여 박막 트랜지스터를 제작하였으며 thermal 열처리와 microwave 열처리 방식에 따른 전기적 특성을 비교 및 분석하고 각 열처리 방식의 열처리 온도 및 조건을 최적화하였다. P-type bulk silicon 위에 산화막이 100 nm 형성된 기판에 spin coater을 이용하여 Al-Zn-Sn-O 박막을 형성하였다. 그리고, baking 과정으로 $180^{\circ}C$의 온도에서 10분 동안의 열처리를 실시하였다. 연속해서 Photolithography 공정과 BOE (30:1) 습식 식각 과정을 이용해 활성화 영역을 형성하여 소자를 제작하였다. 제작 된 소자는 Junctionless TFT 구조이며, 프로브 탐침을 증착 된 채널층 표면에 직접 접촉시켜 소스와 드레인 역할을 대체하여 동작시킬 수 있어 전기적 특성을 간단하고 간략화 된 공정과정으로 분석할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 열처리 조건으로는 thermal 열처리의 경우, furnace를 이용하여 $500^{\circ}C$에서 30분 동안 N2 가스 분위기에서 열처리를 실시하였고, microwave 열처리는 microwave 장비를 이용하여 각각 400 W, 600 W, 800 W, 1000 W로 15분 동안 실시하였다. 그 결과, furnace를 이용하여 열처리한 소자와 비교하여 microwave를 통해 열처리한 소자에서 subthreshold swing (SS), threshold voltage (Vth), mobility 등이 비슷한 특성을 내는 것을 확인하였다. 따라서, microwave 열처리 공정은 향후 저온 공정을 요구하는 MOSFET 제작 시의 훌륭한 대안으로 사용 될 것으로 기대된다.

Fire resistance and thermal stability of polypropylene composite systems were investigated by using several halogenated fire-retardants such as decabromodiphenyl oxide (DBDPO) and chlorinated paraffin wax (CPW). The fire resistance of composite systems was thoroughly examined by measuring limited oxygen index (LOI, ASTM D2863, ISO 4589) and characteristic properties of cone calorimetry(ASTM E1354, ISO 5660) heat release rates (HRR), time to ignition (TTI), total heat release (THR), effective heat of combustion (EHC), mass loss rates, etc. Comparing the cone calorimetry experimental results of the halogen flame retardants, DBDPO exhibited twice higher efficiency than CPW in polypropylene systems, and the LOI also showed similar trends to cone calorimetry. The thermo-oxidative stability of the composite systems was increased about 30-5$0^{\circ}C$ in thermogravimetry analysis.Collectively, the combustion, extinction and thermally-stable characteristics of flame retardants were identified in this study.

Longitudinal strains (${\varepsilon}_x$) of the core and skin layers in glass fiber reinforced plastic (GFRP) cross-ply composite laminates have been measured using the embedded optical fiber sensor of absolute extrinsic Fabry-Perot interferometer (A-EFPI). Transmission optical microscopy was used to investigate the damage behavior around the A-EFPI sensor. Foil-type strain gauges bonded on both the upper and lower surfaces were used for the measurement of the surface strains. It was shown that values of ${\varepsilon}_x$ in the interior of the skin layer and the core layer measured by embedded A-EFPI sensor were significantly higher than that of the specimen surface measured by strain gauges. The experimental results agreed well with those from finite element analysis on the basis of uniform stress model. Large strains in the core layer led to the occurrence of many transverse cracks which drastically reduced the strain at failure of optical fiber sensor embedded in the core layer.

A simple and sensitive analytical method for fluoride in urine by ion selective electrode (ISE) method was presented. Traditional buffer for fluoride determination using ISE is acetate-based one. Researchers have pointed out some drawbacks of the buffer for fluoride ISE analysis, and some other buffers including citrate-ammonium buffer and MES buffer have been studied for accurate determination of fluoride in urine here. These buffers provided promising results in environmental field, and this author focused on overcoming the interference of co-existing aluminium. The results show that MES-CyDTA buffer gave the best recovery with accuracy of 95-97.5% and precision of 1.9-7.9% for reference sample of 1.8-7.8 mg/L fluoride in urine, with smaller amount of samples and shorter analysis time compared with the traditional method which used acetate buffer. The method was applied to field samples, and which showed urinary of $0.98{\pm}0.38mg/g$ creatinine for workers in electric cable manufacturing factory (n=15) and $0.59{\pm}0.30mg/g$ creatinine for non-exposed workers (n=12).

In this research, three dimensional mathematical models were developed to predict the shelf life of tofu packaged in a semi-rigid plastic container. A model combining oxygen transfer through the package and oxygen consumption within the package was considered. According to the results, the model simulations estimated that the number of microorganisms in the filled water was higher than that in the tofu, suggesting the shelf life of packaged tofu was not affected by the number of microorganisms in the tofu product, but rather by the number of organisms in the filled water. Additionally, the effects of the physical properties of the packaging material, such as oxygen permeability through the package, oxygen diffusion coefficient, the initial oxygen concentration in the filled water, and the depth of the filled water in the packaged tofu, were also observed.

For recycling cement hydrate(CH) as waterproofers for mortar and concrete or a filler for rubber & plastics, the cement hydrates were treated with stearic acid(SA). And the bonding characteristics and the water repellency of the CH-SA compounds were investigated by using FT-IR, TGA, SEM, XRD, and contact angle measuring apparatus. Water tightness of the remitars used CH-SA compounds was also tested. The results are summarized as follows : 1) If the cement hydrates are treated with over 2.0% of stearic acid, the CH-SA compounds show very strong water repellency. 2) The stearic acids are solidified on the surfaces of cement hydrate in calcium stearate and aluminium stearate. 3) If CH-SA compounds which is cement hydrate treated with 5~10% of stearic acid are used 3%~6% in remitar, water absorption ratio and water permeatility ratio of remitar are decreased in below 30% of those of the ordinary remitar.

Lots of products stocked at a traditional market are made of rubbers, synthetic fibers and plastics which when on fire, emit high heat to easily ignite nearby inflammables. And shops are not divided by fireproof partitions but by combustible curtains, which contributes to a possibility of a conflagration. In this study, danger and weak factors on fire at a traditional market was analyzed. Non-existence of partition between shops and the height of piled inflammables are set as danger factors and change of extinguishing capacity of sprinklers was analyzed using fire dynamics simulator. As a result, it turned out that partitions between shops and high-piled inflammables reduced watering radius of sprinklers and increased the size of fire and distribution of temperature.

A cecostomy technique (surgery for inserted tube into ceca) was developed to quantify urine backflow into the ceca of fed and feed-deprived chickens. Two days post-surgery, cecostomised chickens were flushed with 20ml of warm saline solution every other day for 10 days. Excreta were collected daily from cecal tubing and cloaca by surgical attachment of polyethylene collection vessels to the chickens. Uric acid excretion was significantly increased in fed compared to feed-deprived chickens (P<0.05). Amount of determined uric acid from the ceca was 7.74% and 5.31% of total excretion for fed and ffeed-deprived chickens, respectively. Post-mortem examinations ascertained that the caeca were intact around the Latex tubing. The results of the study indicated that at least 5% of daily urine production flow retrograde into the ceca of roosters.
