비파괴적인 방법으로 방사성폐기물드럼에 대한 핵종분석을 수행할 때 드럼내 매질에 의한 방사선의 감쇠에 의해 핵종분석장치로 측정한 계수값은 실제 드럼내 방사능에 의한 계수값보다 작게 나타나 결과적으로 방사능의 측정결과가 과소평가된다. 그러므로 드럼내 매질에 의한 감쇠를 보정해 주어야 하는데 감쇠 보정방법은 드럼내 매질의 분포나 매질의 밀도에 따라 달리 적용해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 원자력발전소에서 발생하는 드럼 종류별로 모델드럼을 제작한 후 모델드럼에 표준감마선원을 넣고 핵종분석장치를 이용해 측정을 하여 드럼내 매질의 밀도를 구하였고, 이 값을 실제 매질의 밀도와 비교해 드럼종류에 따라 매질에 의한 최적의 감쇠 보정방법을 결정하였다. 그 결과 잡고체드럼의 경우에는 전송선원 보정방법과 평균밀도 보정방법, 차폐잡고체드럼의 경우 전송선원 보정방법과 두 감마선피크비교 보정방법이 최적의 감쇠 보정방법임을 알 수 있었고, 고밀도드럼인 폐수지, 농축폐액 및 폐필터드럼의 경우에는 평균밀도 보정방법과 두 감마선피크비교 보정방법을 사용해 드럼내 매질의 감쇠를 보정할 수 있다.

현행 면적평균 강수량 산정 방법인 티센 방법은 정확한 유역평균 강수량 산정에 있어 심각한 구조적 한계가 존재한다. 강수량계의 관측 정확도 외에, 강수량계 배치와 호우의 이동 방향에 따라서도 면적평균 강수량 산정에 오차가 발생할 수 있다. 유역이 작고 관측소 밀도가 희박한 경우 시뮬레이션 및 관측 사상 모두에서 티센 방법은 첨두 전후로 10분 사이에 유역평균 강수량이 계속 급격히 증감이 반복되는 특이한 경향 보였다. 그리고 티센 유역평균 강수량은 첨두 시점이 강우레이더와 다르게 나타났다. 유역이 작지만 관측소 밀도 비교적 높은 경우에는 전반적으로 티센 방법에 의해 톱니모양의 과대 첨두치의 경향은 나타나지 않았고 시간에 따른 변동이 유사하게 나타났다. 그러나 강우레이더 관측치와 지상 강수량계 관측치 유역평균 강수량 사이에 약 10분 정도의 연속적인 시차가 발생하였다. 강우레이더 유역평균 강수량의 지상보정 효과를 검토한 결과, 보정 후 면적평균 강수량이 보정 전 면적평균 강수량에 비해 오히려 상관이 낮게 나타나, 현행 강우레이더 지상보정 알고리즘 보정 효과가 높지 않은 것을 알 수 있었다.

In examinations of the stomach roentgenography, it is imperative to obtain adequate film density throughout all its different regions. Therefore, it is necessary to use more sophiscated exposure techniques. In order to achieve these purpose, the radiologic technologists must be measured abdominal thickness in variations with patient positions. In consideration of these problem, the author was made an experiment on correction method of kVp and mAs by abdominal thickness in roentgenography of the stomach. The results were summarized as follws: 1. When the patient in erect position, abdominal thickness was the most thickened at the level of 3cm inferior to umbilicus without regard to body habitus and it was the most thickened at the level of 3cm superior to umbilicus in prone and supine position. 2. As a result of measuring film density for stomach, the adequate film density was represented from 0.70 to 2.49 in erect position and $0.28{\sim}1.18$ in supine position, $0.5{\sim}2.45$ in prone position. 3. In order to obtain uniform film density in 1.25, the correction factor for kVp by abdominal thickness was represented average ${\pm}4.5kVp\;per\;{\pm}1cm$ in a fixed 50 mAs, and average ${\pm}3.9kVp\;per\;{\pm}1cm$ in a fixed 100mAs. 4. In order to obtain uniform film density in 1.25, the correction factor for mAs by abdominal thickness was represented average ${\pm}30.9%\;per\;{\pm}1cm$ in a fixed 80 kvp and ${\pm}26.9%\;per\;{\pm}1cm$ in a fixed 100kVp.

Gravity and magnetic surveys were carried out to investigate the three-dimensional configuration and characteristics of the landfills at Nanjido waste disposal site. For terrain correction and three-dimensional density inversion of gravity data an algorithm, which calculates the gravity effect of a three-dimensional body by using the solid angle method, is developed. This algorithm has been proved to give more accurate terrain correction values for the small survey area having varied topography like Nanjido site as compared with widely used methods such as Hammer's method and multiquadric equation method. Density inversion of gravity anomaly data gives very useful information about the lateral and vertical variation of the landfills, which can be used to discriminate the kinds of wastes. The average density of filled materials appears to be $1.7\;g/cm^3$ which is much higher than the value $(0.8\;g/cm^3)$ estimated by Seoul City. The lateral variation of density shows high correlation with the pattern of ongoing depression of the landfills. The northern region of the landfill no. 1, which shows low density and high depression, is closely associated with the industrial waste and sludge filled area. The magnetic anomaly data provide information about relative concentration of magnetic materials, which is also very useful to investigate characteristics of the fills. Several high positive anomaly regions on the reduced-to-pole magnetic anomaly map are appeared to be associated with the industrial waste fills, but certain industrial waste fills show low negative anomalies. This kind of magnetic information can be used in selecting drilling locations over landfills away from buried metal products during the stabilization process.

LGP is a key component of LCD back light unit because it determines brightness and sharpness of the display image. Usually, it has optical patterns fabricated on the bottom surface. These optical patterns convert point or line sources placed in the side of LGP to plane source at the top surface by changing the propagating direction of the incident light. In the present paper the LiGA-reflow method was applied to fabricate the LGP mold. Furthermore, the optical simulation considering the replication ratio of pattern height was applied to the pattern design. The optical simulation through systematic correction scheme was adopted to find the optimum distribution of pattern density. Finally, the stamper fabricated by this method was installed in the mold and LGP was produced by injection molding. As a result of luminance measurement for the final product, the average luminance and luminance uniformity was measured 3,180 nit and 84%, respectively. Consequently, the mold fabrication method using the LiGA-reflow and optical simulation(CAE) can save the expense and time compared with the existing fabrication methods(laser ablation and chemical etching).

Objective: Percutaneous kyphoplasty using a balloon-catheter is an widely accepted method which achieves the restoration of vertebral height and the correction of kyphotic deformity with little complication in osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures. The authors assess the results of 59 patients who underwent kyphoplasty, and analyze the factors that could affect the prognosis. Methods: From December 2001 to May 2003, fifty-nine patients underwent kyphoplasty. The patients included 49 women and 10 men aged 52-85 years. Average t-score on bone marrow density was -3.58. About 7cc of polymethylmethacrylate(PMMA) was injected into the fractured vertebral body using $Kyphon^{(R)}$ under local anesthesia. The vertical height of all fractured vertebrae was measured both before and after surgery. Outcome data were obtained by comparing pre- and post-operative VAS score and by assessing postoperative satisfaction, drug dependency and activity. Various clinical factors were analyzed to assess the relationship with the outcome. Results: The VAS score improved significantly, and the mean percentage of restored vertebral height was 53%. The mean improvement in kyphosis was $3.6^{\circ}$. Eighty-nine percent of the patients gained excellent or good results. Any of the clinical factors including the interval between fracture and operation, the degree of height loss, the degree of the vertebral height restoration or the correction rate of kyphosis did not affect the clinical results. Conclusion: Kyphoplasty is associated with a statistically significant improvement in pain and function with little complication. The clinical results are not affected by any clinical parameters. Further follow-up study is needed to determine whether the restoration affects the long-term clinical results.

항공 우주 분야의 데이터 전송 방식의 표준인 IRIG 106 표준에서 오류 정정 능력이 뛰어난 LDPC가 채널 부호화 기법으로 채택되었다. LDPC와 같은 반복 부호는 큰 블록 크기와 많은 반복 횟수를 필요하고 이로 인해 계산량과 전력 소모가 늘어나는 결과를 초래한다. 이러한 문제점을 개선하고자 본 논문에서는 IRIG 106 표준에 따른 정보비트 크기와 부호화율에 대해 동일한 성능을 유지하면서 평균 반복 횟수를 감소하는 parity check 방식 기반의 조기 종료 알고리즘을 제시하였다. 기존 방식과 성능 및 반복 감소 정도를 비교 분석하였으며. 각 부호화 별 동일 성능을 유지하면서 반복 횟수가 약 50% 이상 감소됨을 확인하였다.

Estimating above-ground biomass is important in establishing an applicable methodology of Measurement, Reporting and Verification (MRV) System for Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation-Plus (REDD+). We developed an estimation model of diameter at breast height (DBH) from IKONOS-2 image that led to above-ground biomass estimation (AGB). The IKONOS image was preprocessed with dark object subtraction and topographic effect correction prior to watershed segmentation for tree crown delineation. Compared to the field observation, the overall segmentation accuracy was 64%. Crown detection percent had a strong negative correlation to tree density. In addition, satellite-based crown area had the highest correlation with the field measured DBH. We then developed the DBH allometric model that explained 74% of the data variance. In average, the estimated DBH was very similar to the measured DBH as well as for AGB. Overall, this method can potentially be applied to estimate AGB over a relatively large and remote tropical forest in Northern Borneo.
