The main objectives of this studies are to present the most desirable rice processing complex model system in a given our situations by comparision and analyzing the major factors and, also recommend the future prospect of the rice processing complex in Korea. There are 3 different rice processing complex models in Korea. Those are concrete bin, flat type steel bin and square bin. These systems have a lot of differences and have their own characteristics such as capital requirement, efficiency, storage capacity and quality controls. The major problems of the existing rice processing centers in Korea are high fixed cost and the unbalnced systems. Following is summary to solve this problems: 1. Development of the large scale harvester and high speed continuous dryer. 2. Quality inspective system of bulk grain and large scale temporary storage facilities. 3. Large size readjustment of arable land. 4. Select the convenient location of rice processing center and formulation of well equipment facilities.

Polymers, particularly plastics, have been widely seen as an existential risk to the environment due to their contribution to pollution, carbon emissions and climate change. Many argue that it is possible to substantially ease the threat of plastics by engaging the public in reducing their use in day-to-day life and implementing efficient domestic waste management strategies. On the other hand, polymers and plastics in building and construction are considerably less problematic, if not attractive. In fact, the applications of polymers in construction have been continuously expanding. This is partly due to the developments made in this area being implemented within a sustainable development strategy. In this paper, the main applications of polymers in construction have been revisited and an overview of the research topics in each application has been briefly presented.

Monogenic disorders are traditionally attributed to the presence of mutations in a single gene. However, recent advancements in genomics have revealed instances where the phenotypic expression of apparently monogenic disorders cannot be fully explained by mutations in a single gene alone. This review article aims to explore the emerging concept of digenic or oligogenic inheritance in seemingly monogenic disorders. We discuss the underlying mechanisms, clinical implications, and the challenges associated with deciphering the contribution of multiple genes in the development and manifestation of such disorders. We present relevant studies and highlight the importance of adopting a broader genetic approach in understanding the complex genetic architecture of these conditions.

For an accurate and efficient time-dependent Monte Carlo (TDMC) neutron transport analysis, several advanced methods are newly developed and implemented in the Seoul National University Monte Carlo code, McCARD. For an efficient control of the neutron population, a dynamic weight window method is devised to adjust the weight bounds of the implicit capture in the time bin-by-bin TDMC simulations. A moving geometry module is developed to model a continuous insertion or withdrawal of a control rod. Especially, the history-based batch method for the TDMC calculations is developed to predict the unbiased variance of a bin-wise mean estimate. The developed methods are verified for three-dimensional problems in the C5G7-TD benchmark, showing good agreements with results from a deterministic neutron transport analysis code, nTRACER, within the statistical uncertainty bounds. In addition, the TDMC analysis capability implemented in McCARD is demonstrated to search the optimum detector positions for the pulsed-neutron-source experiments in the Kyoto University Critical Assembly and AGN201K.

상온통풍(常溫通風)을 이용(利用)한 In-bin drying에 대(對)한 많은 실험결과(實驗結果)에 의(依)하면 우리나라 10월(月)의 기상조건(氣象條件)은 저온건조(低溫乾燥) system에 적합(適合)한 건조능력(乾燥能力)을 가지고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 최근(最近) Computer를 이용(利用)한 Simulation model이 개발(開發)되어 건조현상(乾操現象)에 관(關)한 경제적(經濟的)이고 효율적(效率的)인 분석(分析)이 가능(可能)하게 되었다. 이러한 분석결과(分析結果)에 의(依)하면 초기함수율(初期含水率)이 높은 벼를 Full-bin을 이용(利用)한 상온통풍건조(常溫通風乾操)를 할 경우(境遇) 건조기간(乾燥期間)이 길어지며 bin내(內)의 상층부(上層部) 곡물(穀物)이 변질(變質)되는 문제점(問題點)이 발생(發生)하였다. 또한 벼의 수확작업체계(收穫作業體系)가 관행(慣行) 및 Binder작업체계(作業體系)에서 점차(漸次) Combine작업체계(作業體系)로 전환(轉換)되어감에 따라 포장(圃場)에서의 건조(乾燥)가 어려우며 예취(刈取), 탈곡작업과정(脫穀作業過程)에서의 기계적(機械的)인 곡물(穀物) 손실(損失)을 줄이기 위(爲)하여 함수율(含水率)이 비교적(比較的) 높은 벼를 수확(收穫)하여야 한다. 본(本) 연구(硏究)의 목적(目的)은 상온통풍건조(常溫通風乾燥)에 있어서 건조능력(乾燥能力)을 증가(增加)시키기 위(爲)하여 곡물(穀物)을 일정기간(一定期間) 나누어서 bin에 넣고 건조(乾燥)를 하는 Layer drying의 Simulation model을 개발(開發)하고 이 Model에 수원지방(水原地方)의 7년간(年間) 평균(平均) 기상자료(氣象資料)를 입력(入力)시켜 곡물(穀物)의 초기함수율(初期含水率), 투입량(投入量), 투입기간(投入期間)의 변화(變化)에 따른 Layer drying현상(現象)을 규명(糾明)하는데 있다. Simulation에 사용(使用)된 bin의 크기는 직경(直徑) 2m, 깊이 1.5m이며 송풍(送風)팬의 용량(容量)은 0.5HP이었다. Simulation분석(分析) 결과(結果)를 요약(要約)하면 다음과 같다. (1) Layer drying의 Simulation model을 개발(開發)하였으며 이 Model은 벼의 상온통풍건조(常溫通風乾燥) 실험(實驗)에서 함수량(含水量) 변화(變化)의 이론치(理論値)와 실제실험치(實際實驗値)가 잘 일치(一致)하였다. (2) 곡물투입기간(穀物投入期間) 1일(日)을 Full-bin drying으로 간주(看做)할 때 Layer drying의 건조성능(乾燥性能)은 Full-bin보다 높은 것으로 나타났다. (3) 연속송풍(連續送風)(24시간(時間))을 할 경우(境遇) 곡물투입기간(穀物投入期間)이 증가(增加)함에 따라 건조기간(乾燥期間)의 감소경향(減少傾向)은 단속송풍(斷續送風)인 경우(境遇)보다 적었지만 건조기간(乾燥期間)은 단축(短縮)되었다. 그러나 건조(乾燥)에너지의 소모(消耗)는 단속송풍(斷續送風)일 때보다 크게 나타났다. (4) 단속송풍(斷續送風)(9 : 00AM~6 : 00PM)일 경우(境遇) 곡물투입기간(穀物投入期間)을 증가(增加)시키면 건조기간(乾燥期間)이 크게 줄어 들었다. (5) 곡물(穀物)의 초기함수율(初期含水率)이 21% 이하(以下)일 경우(境遇) 연속(連續) 및 단속송풍(斷續送風)에서 건조기간(乾燥期間)의 차이(差異)가 별로 없었다. (6) 곡물(穀物)의 초기함수율(初期含水率)이 높으면 Full-bin drying에서는 상부층(上部層)에 곡물(穀物)이 변질(變質)될 우려(憂慮)가 있으나 Layer drying에서는 곡물투입량(穀物投入量)을 조절(調節)하면 이것을 방지(防止)할 수 있었다. (7) 건조(乾燥)가 완료(完了)된 후(後) 층별(層別) 최종곡물(最終穀物) 함수율(含水率)은 모든 건조조건(乾燥條件)에서 동일(同一)하였으나 bin의 하부층(下部層)은 과건조(過乾燥) 물상(物象)을 일으켰다.

The grain temperature is a crucial factor determining the deterioration rate of stored grain. Therefore, it is used to be predicted in order to evaluate the various stored methods rapidly and inexpensively. In this study, a mathematical model was developed to simulate the temperatures of grain stored in a cylinderical bin. It was formulated for the two dimensional heat transfer by the finite difference method. Then, it was verified statistically using the actual test deta and the predicted. The changes of grain temperature were analyed using the simulated data of one year for a safe stoarge and the following results were obtained: 1. Simulation model developed by the finite difference method was validated with the actual and the predicted grain temperatures and it's result showed that it could predict the grain temperature of storage bin reasonably well. 2. Grain temperature near the wall of storage bin were changed with $6-7^{\circ}C$ higher then average atmospheric temperature from June to September. Therefore, the parts of stored grain near the wall is supposed to be deteriorated fast. 3. When the dimension of bin diameter is about the same as the bed height, the changes of grain temperature of radial direction was higher than the verticals. 4. The predicted temperature showed that the grain temperature of which were from the end of April to mid October were higher than the safe storage limit at Yusung, Korea.

For biomaterials for skin regeneration with minimized inflammatory response, high bioactivity and biocompatibility are highly required. Also, it should have a porous microstructure to improve cell adhesion and growth. In this study, we extracted a new collagen source from duck's feet which is by-product, and made the shape of sponges from duck's feet collagen (DC) to compare with DBP and SIS. To analyze physical and chemical property of the scaffold, SEM and FTIR were used. MTT assay was used to measure the attachment and proliferation of NIH/3T3 in the scaffolds. RTPCR was used to evaluate the expression of proinflammatory cytokine. Also, 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) was used to measure the ability of antioxidant activity. Overall, this study shows that DC scaffold is biocompatible and has good physical property. Additionally, DC scaffold shows the potential as wound healing biomaterials.
