This study aimed to investigate the suppressive effect of acorn extracts, by evaluating 70% ethanol extract (AE) and hot water extract (AW) using 3T3-L1 preadipocytes. We applied various levels (0, 100, 200, 300 and $500 {\mu}g/mL$) of AE and AW to 3T3-L1 preadipocytes. The cell viability of the 3T3-L1 preadipocytes was not affected by up $300 {\mu}g/mL$ of extracts, but was suppressed by level $500{\mu}g/mL$ of both AE and AW by 20% and 9% respectively. The accumulation of lipid droplets in differentiated 3T3-L1 preadipocytes was dose-dependently suppressed by AE and AW. Especially, at high concentrations ($300{\mu}g/mL$), AE (42%) was more effective than AW (41%). Reactive oxygen species (ROS) was also dose-dependently suppressed by treatment with AE (58%) and AW (52%). With regard to the mRNA related to differentiated 3T3-L1 preadipocytes, $PPAR-{\gamma}$ and aP2 were suppressed by treatment with AE (54 and 40%) and AW (38 and 18%). From our results, acorn extract (AE) has more suppressive effects than AW in differentiated 3T3-L1 preadipocytes. We therefore concluded that acorn has suppressive effects against obesity in differentiated 3T3-L1 cells due to antioxidation.

The effect of lowering water activity of various humectants has been reported in the previous papers. In this study, that effect of humectants used in combination with each other was discussed. Additionally, the Aw measurements were also compared to the predicted values of Aw derived from the equation of Raoult's law and the linear slope method by Sloan and Labuza. Each mixed humectant was thought to be salted-out by the other, and thus Aw values were observed to be somewhat lower as the result in all model preparations. The effect of lowering water activity by NaCl was the highest, and the efficiency of reduction of Aw was decreased in the order of NaCl, sodium lactate, glycerin, propylene glycol and sorbitol when each of them was combinated with other humectants. Aw values calculated by the equation of Raoult's law were not agreed so well to the measured Aw, so it was likely not to be the useful method for predicting Aw values in mixed humectants to far as they have showed higher ability for lowering Aw in the previous papers. The equations of prediction were derived from Aw values to be measured actually in the model Kamaboko.

DEM (Digital Elevation Model) is a useful dataset which represents the earth surface. Beside many applications, production and frequent update of DEM is a costly task. Recently global satellite based DEMs are available which has huge potential for application. To check the accuracy, this study compares two global DEMs: AW3D30 (Advanced Land Observing Satellite World 3D 30m) and SRTM30 (Shuttle Radar Topography Mission Global 30m) with reference resampled LiDAR DEM 30m in a test area around Chuncheon, Korea. The comparison analysis was based on statistics of each DEM, their difference, profiles, slope, basin and stream orders. As a result, it is found that SRTM30 and AW3D30 were much similar but inconsistent in the test area compared to the LiDAR30 DEM. In addition, SRTM30 shows less difference with LiDAR30 compared to the AW3D30 DEM. But, DEMs should be very carefully examined for area which has temporal or season changes. For basin and stream analysis, global DEMs can be used only for regional scale analysis not local large scales.

Fatigue properties of INVAR/AW wires have been investigated under the heat exposure in order to ensure stable operation and to estimate life span of their power line. In the case of heat exposure for 10000 hr, fatigue life and limit increased. For further heat exposure, fatigue limit decreased due to the decrease in yield strength. The variation fatigue of strand wire was strongly dependent on its amplitude. Also, cracks in wires of 7 strands were caused by stress concentration at the outer surface and fretting between each wire during vibration.

본 논문에서는 Contrast map과 Salient point를 이용하여 영상에서 중요한 객체를 자동으로 추출하는 방법을 제안한다. 우선 인간의 시각 체계와 유사한 밝기(luminance), 색상(color) 그리고 방향성(orientation) 3가지의 특징정보를 이용하여 각각의 특징정보로부터 feature map을 생성하고 이 3가지의 feature map을 선형 결합하여 contrast map을 생성한다. 이렇게 생성된 하나의 contrast map을 이용하여 대략적인 Attention Window (AW)의 위치를 결정한다. 다음으로, 영상으로부터 웨이블릿 변환을 적용하여 salient point를 찾고, salient point의 분포와 contrast map의 중요도에 따라 AW의 크기를 실제 중요 객체의 크기와 가장 유사하도록 축소시킨다. 이렇게 선택되고 축소된 AW안에서 실제 중요 객체를 추출하기 위해 AW 내부에 존재하는 영상에 대해서만 영상 분할을 하고 불필요한 영역을 제거하여 자동으로 중요객체를 추출하도록 한다.

본 논문에서는 아마존 웹 서비스(AWS)를 사용하여 리눅스 가상환경을 구성하고, 이를 바탕으로 wordpress 서버를 구축하는 방법을 제시한다. AWS는 아마존 회사에서 제공하는 클라우드 컴퓨팅 서비스이며 가상 컴퓨터와 스토리지, 네트워크 인프라 등 다양한 서비스를 제공한다. AWS에서 제공하는 서비스들 중 Lightsail을 사용하여 리눅스 가상서버와 Wordpress 서버를 구현한다. Amazon Lightsail은 AWS에서 제공하는 서비스들 중 가장 쉽게 사용가능하다. 본 논문을 통해 보다 리눅스 및 서버 구축에 어려움을 겪는 초보자분들의 진입장벽을 낮추고 보다 활성화된 클라우드 서비스를 생활화하고자 한다.

Performances of a total of 6 selected sediment transport formulas including Engelund & Hansen(EH)'s, Ackers & White(AW)'s, Yang(YN)'s, Brownlie(BR)'s, Karim & Kennedy (KK)'s, and Rijn(RJ)'s ones, which have been known to be relatively reliable, were tested using the 1,399 measured sediment discharge data points of the 20 rivers selected from Brownlie's compendium of sediment discharge. The calculated results were plotted with the input parameters such as the unit discharge, mean velocity, flow depth, energy slope, and median diameter respectively, and trend of each formula's performance was analyzed. These analyses revealed that, in general, EH's and RJ's formulas are more reliable, BR's, AW's, and KK's ones are moderately reliable, and YN's one is less reliable. AW's formula drastically overestimates sediment discharge for fine sediment(D<0.15mm), and YN's one under-estimates sediment discharge for streams with large water discharge(q>5 cms/m).

We reinvestigate UV line emissions of 44i Boo, W UMa, AW UMa and VW Cep, which are indicaters of chromospheric activity of these stars. C I, C II, C IV, Si IV lines show significant variation in orbital phase. Among those lines, the Line of C IV showed the strongest line flux. while other Si IV and N V lines showed relative low line intensities. 44i Boo emitted the strongest flux than other stars. UV light curves of target stars shoed UV maximum at phase around 0.2 an 0.8 Such UV emissions are generally believed to be observed at the active regions and contacting parts of the two stars due to the clear visibility at the phase 0.2 and 0.8. Total emissivity of four transitions lines lead to conclude that the activity of this region is 40 times larger than the quiet sun. It is obvious that the activity decrease according to increase period. We obtained also Mg II light curve of AW UMA and VW Cep. These stars showed more clearly phase-dependent light curves. We estimated effective temperature of two star, AW UMa and VW Cep, using by Mg II flux.

We investigated the growth parameters of Candida parapsilosis isolated from spoiled red ginseng extract. The optimum pH range for C. parapsilosis was 6.0, whereas the minimum and maximum pH values that permitted growth were 3.0 and 11.0, respectively. For cells grown in PG medium plus 0 and 60％ sucrose, the optimum water activity(Aw) values were 0.98 and 0.97, respectively. The optimum temperature for C. parapsilosis were 3$0^{\circ}C$ at an Aw of 0.90 in 4.8％ potato dextrose broth with 18％ sucrose (PGS). Cations inhibiting the growth of C parapsilosis were L $i^{+}$ $Ca^{2+}$, $Mg^{+2}$, $K^{+}$ in decreasing order, while anions were S $O_4$$^{2-}$, N $O_3$$^{[-10]}$ , C $l^{[-10]}$ .TEX> .

This study estimated planned felling volumes to set targets for management planning of nationwide country-owned forests. Estimates were made using timber harvest prediction methods that use probability density functions, including area weighting (AW), area ratio weighting (ARW), and sample area change ratio weighting (SCRW). Country-owned forest areas in 2010 and 2015 were used to estimate planned felling volumes, as shown in basic forest statistics, and calculations were made assuming that the felling areas were the changes in the forest area over the 5-year period. For the age classes of V-VI, the average felling ages for AW, ARW, and SCRW were 5.41, 5.56, and 5.37, respectively, and the felling areas were 594,462, 586,704, and 580,852 ha, respectively, with ARW reaching closest to the actual changes. The actual changes in the areas and chi-squared test results were most stable with the SCRW method. This study showed that SCRW was more adequate than AW and ARW as a method to predict timber harvests for forest management planning.
