This paper reports the results about the petrography and mineral chemistry of 13 representative dredged basaltic rocks from the western Caroline Ridge (WCR) and Yap Trench-Arc system, and provides the chemical and tectonic informations based on the compositions of clinopyroxene phenocrysts. Compositions of olivine phenocrysts in some analyzed samples are Fo$_{86-80}$. Plagioclase phenocrysts have variable compositions ranging from An$_{90}$ to An$_{55}$. The compositions of clinopyroxene phenocrysts vary according to geological environments; titansalite in atoll and guyot of WCR, diopside-augite in trough and bank of WCR, and endiopside in Yap Trench-Arc system. Application of the discrimination schemes proposed by Leterrier et al. (1982) suggests: (1) the samples from atoll-guyot belong to within plate alkali basalt, implying that western CR could be the continuation of eastern CR formed by hot spot magmatism, (2) the samples from the Yap Trench-Arc system with no present-day magmatism clearly indicate the occurrence of orogenic tholeiites presumably related to early island arc magmatisms in this area, however, (3) the samples from the bank and trough do not provide definitive informations, which might indicate the complexity of their origins.

Hydrogen, a clean energy source free of COx emissions, is poised to replace fossil fuels, with its usage on the rise. Despite its high energy content per unit mass, hydrogen faces limitations in storage and transportation due to its low storage density and challenges in long-term storage. In contrast, ammonia offers a high storage capacity per unit volume and is relatively easy to liquefy, making it an attractive option for storing and transporting large volumes of hydrogen. While NH₃ decomposition is an endothermic reaction, achieving excellent low-temperature catalytic activity is essential for process efficiency and cost-effectiveness. The study examined the effects of different zeolite types (5A, NaY, ZSM5) on NH₃ decomposition activity, considering differences in pore structure, cations, and Si/Al-ratio. Notably, the 5A zeolite facilitated the high dispersion of Ni across the surface, inside pores, and within the structure. Its low Si/Al ratio contributed to abundant acidity, enhancing ammonia adsorption. Additionally, the presence of Na and Ca cations in the support created medium basic sites that improved N₂ desorption rates. As a result, among the prepared catalysts, the 15 wt%Ni/5A catalyst exhibited the highest NH₃ conversion and a high H₂ formation rate of 23.5 mmol/g_cat·min (30,000 mL/g_cat·h, 600 ℃). This performance was attributed to the strong metal-support interaction and the enhancement of N₂ desorption rates through the presence of medium basic sites.

This study examined the characteristics of child maltreatment cases which occurred recently at the Day Care Centers in Korea. The study utilized the case records system of the National Child Protection Agency (K-CPS) and analyzed all the cases reported to the K-CPS from 2010 to 2012 (n=462). Using the case records abstraction system developed for this study, based on the Maltreatment Case Records Abstraction System (MCRAI; Trickett et al., 2009), the detailed information on abuse cases as well as disposition outcomes was abstracted. The results showed the relatively low rate of abuse designation, low rate of reports from the mandatory reporters as well as overwhelmingly high rate of physical abuse. Diversity was detected in severity ratings in each type of abuse. Finally, determinants of dispositions differed for children, perpetrators and daycare centers. Based on the results, implications for practice and child maltreatment research were discussed.

금속 실리사이드 나노입자는 열적 및 화학적 안정성이 뛰어나고, 절연막내에 일함수 차이에 따라 깊은 양자 우물구조가 형성되어 비휘발성 메모리 소자를 제작할 수 있다. 그러나 단일 $SiO_2$ 절연막을 사용하였을 경우 저장된 전하의 정보 저장능력 및 쓰기/지우기 시간을 향상시키는 데 물리적 두께에 따른 제한이 따른다. 본 연구에서는 터널장벽 엔지니어링을 통하여 물리적인 두께는 단일 $SiO_2$ 보다는 두꺼우나 쓰기/지우기 동작을 위하여 인가되는 전기장에 의하여 상대적으로 전자가 느끼는 상대적인 터널 절연막 두께를 감소시키는 방법으로 동작속도를 향상 시킨 $SiO_2/Si_3N_4/SiO_2$ 및 $Si_3N_4/SiO_2/Si_3N_4$ 터널 절연막을 사용한 금속 실리사이드 나노입자 비휘발성 메모리를 제조하였다. 제조방법은 우선 p-type 실리콘 웨이퍼 위에 100 nm 두께로 증착된 Poly-Si 층을 형성 한 이후 소스와 드레인 영역을 리소그래피 방법으로 형성시켜 트랜지스터의 채널을 형성한 이후 그 상부에 $SiO_2/Si_3N_4/SiO_2$ (2 nm/ 2 nm/ 3 nm) 및 $Si_3N_4/SiO_2/Si_3N_4$ (2 nm/ 3 nm/ 3 nm)를 화학적 증기 증착(chemical vapor deposition)방법으로 형성 시킨 이후, direct current magnetron sputtering 방법을 이용하여 2~5 nm 두께의 $WSi_2$ 및 $TiSi_2$ 박막을 증착하였으며, 나노입자 형성을 위하여 rapid thermal annealing(RTA) system을 이용하여 $800{\sim}1000^{\circ}C$에서 질소($N_2$) 분위기로 1~5분 동안 열처리를 하였다. 이후 radio frequency magnetron sputtering을 이용하여 $SiO_2$ control oxide layer를 30 nm로 증착한 후, RTA system을 이용하여 $900^{\circ}C$에서 30초 동안 $N_2$ 분위기에서 후 열처리를 하였다. 마지막으로 thermal evaporator system을 이용하여 Al 전극을 200 nm 증착한 이후 리소그래피와 식각 공정을 통하여 채널 폭/길이 $2{\sim}5{\mu}m$인 비휘발성 메모리 소자를 제작하였다. 제작된 비휘발성 메모리 소자는 HP 4156A semiconductor parameter analyzer와 Agilent 81101A pulse generator를 이용하여 전기적 특성을 확인 하였으며, 측정 온도를 $25^{\circ}C$, $85^{\circ}C$, $125^{\circ}C$로 변화시켜가며 제작된 비휘발성 메모리 소자의 열적 안정성에 관하여 연구하였다.

The artificial compressibility (AC) method for the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in the generalized curvilinear coordinates using the primitive form is implemented. The main advantage of the AC approach is that the resulting system of equations resembles the system of compressible N-S equations and can thus be integrated in time using standard, well-established time-marching methods. The errors, which are the odd-even oscillation, for pressure field in using the artificial compressibility can be eliminated by using the $4^{th}$ order artificial dissipation term which is explicitly included. Even though this paper focuses exclusively on 2D laminar flows to validate and assess the performance of this solver, this numerical method is general enough so that it can be readily extended to carry out 3D URANS simulation of engineering flows. This algorithm yields practically identical velocity profiles and primary vortex and secondary vortices that are in excellent overall agreement with the results of the vorticity-stream function formulation (Ghia et al., 1982). However, the grid resolution have to be required to be large enough to express the various vortices.

This experiment was designed to determine whether ${\alpha}$-aminoisobutyric acid (AIB) can be used to predict membrane function of spermatozoa by measuring the uptake of AIB by fresh, stored and frozen-thawed rooster spermatozoa. When spermatozoa were stored at low temperature ($0{\sim}3^{\circ}C$) for 24 h. no difference was found in AIB uptake compared with fresh spermatozoa, whereas storage for 48 h resulted in a slight increase in AIB uptake by spermatozoa. On the one hand, the uptake of AIB by frozen-thawed spermatozoa was less than that by fresh spermatozoa. This suggests possibility of a different membrane transport system between spermatozoa preserved at low temperature ($0{\sim}3^{\circ}C$) and those frozen-thawed. Glycerol used as cryoprotectant may modify rooster sperm membrane in a different manner from cold preservation. Ouabaine ($10^{-4}M$) caused a slight decrease in AIB uptake, but caffeine ($10^{-2}M$) did not influence spermatozoal AIB uptake. These results indicate a successful application of AIB to rooster spermatozoa as a mean for measuring sperm membrane function and suggest a possible alteration of membrane transport system in rooster spermatozoa between cold ($0{\sim}3^{\circ}C$) and cryopreservation ($-196^{\circ}C$).

Capsaicin. a vanillyl amide(8-methy1-N-vanilly1-6-nonenamide) with a molecular weight of 305.42, was substance, interrupting the pain conducting pathway Until recently the neurotoxic effects of Capsaicin to adult animals were thought to be limited to the peripheral nervous system. But several reports suggest the possibility of central nervous system changes after Capsaicin administration to the adult rat. Capsaicin desensitization is defined as long lasting, reversible suppression of sensory neuron activity. How fast and for how long the desensitization develops is related to the dose and time of exposure to Capsaicin, and the interval between consecutive dosing. In the long term Capsaicin treatment can lead to morphological degeneration and changes in some small sensory neurons, predominantly unmyelinated C fiber afferent nerve fibers. Clinical interest has recently been roused by evidence that Capsaicin's desensitizing action may be of therapeutic value and that an endogenous Capsaicin-1 ike substance may exist. This study summarizes the fundamental knowledge(mechanism, receptors, et al of Capsaicin) of Capsaicin for physical therapists.

Polysilicon thin-film transistors (poly-Si TFTs)는 능동행렬 액정 표시 소자(AMLCD : Active Matrix Liquid Crystal Display)와 DRAM과 같은 메모리 분야에 폭넓게 적용이 가능하기 때문에 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 최근 poly-Si TFTs의 우수한 특성으로 인하여 주변 driving circuits에 직접화가 가능하게 되었다. 또한 디스플레이 LCD 패널에 controller와 메모리와 같은 다 기능의 장치을 직접화 하여 비용의 절감과 소자의 소형화가 가능한 SOP (System on panels)에 연구 또한 진행 되고 있다. 이미 잘 알려진 바와 같이 비휘발성 메모리는 낮은 소비전력과 비휘발성이라는 특성 때문에 이동식 디바이스에 데이터 저장 장치로 많이 사용되고 있다. 하지만 플로팅 타입의 비휘발성 메모리는 제작공정의 문제로 인하여 SOP의 적용에 어려움을 가지고 있다. SONOS 타입의 메모리는 빠른 쓰기/지우기 효율과 긴 데이터 유지 특성을 가지고 있으나 소자의 스케일링 따른 누설전류의 증가와 10년의 데이터 보존 특성을 만족 시킬 수 가 없는 문제가 발생한다. 본 연구에서는 SOP 적용을 위하여 ELA 방법을 통하여 결정화한 poly-Si TFT memory를 SiO2/Si3N4/SiO2 Tunnel barrier와 High-k HfO2과 Al2O3을 Trapping layer와 Blocking layer로 적용, 비휘발성 메모리을 제작하여 전기적 특성을 알아보았다.

Recently, we have reported a rice MADS-box gene, OsMADS1, as a molecular factor triggering flower formation; this has been well studied in a heterologous system (Chung et al., 1994). In order to study whether the OsMADS1 homolog exists in other plant species, the OsMADS1 cDNA was used as a probe to screen a tobacco cDNA library, and a potential homolog, NtMADS3, was isolated. Sequence analysis revealed that the gene shares 56.1% identity in whole amino acids with OsMADS1. Like OsMADS1, the NtMADS3 gene starts to express at a very early stage of flower development, and the expression continues up to flower maturation. In the tobacco flower, the gene is expressed in whorl 2,3 and 4, corresponding to the petal, stamen, and carpel, respectively. Upon ectopic expression in the homologous system, NtMADS3 caused a trasition from inflorescence shoot meristem into floral meristem, reducing flowering time dramatically. These phenotypes strongly suggest the NtMADS3 gene is the OsMADS1 homolog of tobacco. Hybrids between the OsMADS1 and the NtMADS3 plants were also generated. The hybrids flowered even earlier than these two transgenic plants. The detailed studies are discussed here.
