We have investigated the dielectric and electrical characteristics of palmitic acid(PA) stearic acid(SA) and arachidic acid(AA) Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) films because these fatty acid systems have a same hydrophilic group and a different hydrophobic one(methylene group or alkyl chain length). The fatty acid systems were used as LB films and the status of the deposited films was confirmed by evaluating the transfer ratio the UV absorption and the capacitance. The dielectric characteristics such as the frequency-capacitance characteristics and the dielectric dispersion and absorption characteristics of PA SA and AA through-plane were measured. The relative dielectric constants of PA, SA and AA LB films were about 3.0~4.6, 2.7~3.0 and 2.4~3.0 respectively. That is the relative dielectric constants were decreased in proportion to the chain length of methylene group. Also the dielectric dispersion and absorption of each fatty acid LB films have arisen from spontaneous polarization of dipole polarization in the range of 10$^4$~10$^{5}$ ［Hz］. The conductivity of PA, SA and AA LB films obtained from I-V characteristics were about 9$\times$10$^{-14}$ , 3$\times$10$^{-14}$ and 5$\times$10$^{-15}$ ［S/cm］. respectively. These results have shown the insulating materials and could control the conductivity y changing the length of methylene group. Also we have confirmed that the barrier height of fatty acid systems were almost the same ones obtained from dielectric characteristics.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the association of telomere length with breast cancer risk. We simultaneously explored the association between telomerase reverse transcriptase gene polymorphisms and telomere length. Methods: We used real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction to measure relative telomere length (RTL) in genomic DNA extracted from peripheral blood from 183 breast cancer cases and 191 healthy controls. Genotyping was performed using the Sequenom MassARRAY platform. Results: Our results show that breast cancer patients had significantly shorter RTLs than control subjects (p<0.05). When the RTLs were categorized into tertiles, we found that the lowest RTL was significantly associated with increased breast cancer risk compared with the highest RTL (odds ratio [OR], 2.33; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.40-3.90; p=0.001). Subgroup analyses indicated that risk of breast cancer was also significantly increased in the lowest RTL compared with the highest RTL in age >40 years (OR, 2.41; 95% CI, 1.31-4.43;p=0.005), body mass index ${\leq}24kg/m^2$ (OR, 2.81; 95% CI, 1.55-5.10; p=0.001), and postmenopausal women (OR, 3.94; 95% CI, 1.63-9.51; p=0.002), respectively. In addition, individuals with the AA genotype of rs2853677 have longer telomeres than those of breast cancer patients with the AG genotype (p=0.011). Conclusion: Our results suggest that shorter RTL was associated with an increased risk of breast cancer. An association was found between the AA genotype of rs2853677 and longer RTLs in the case group. Functional studies are warranted to validate this association and further investigate our findings.

천연계 비이온 계면활성제 APG(Alkyl Polyglucoslde)는 옥수수 성분의 글루코스와 팜, 야자유에서 얻어지는 지방 알코올을 이용하여 합성된다. 친수성인 글루코스의 중합도(D.P.=1.2~1.8)와 소수성인 alkyl chain 길이 (C8-C14)에 따른 계면특성(표면 계면장력, cmc, 기포력, effectiveness 등)을 조사한 바 중합도에는 영향이 적으나, alkyl chain 길이에는 큰 영향을 받았다. 지방산 오염에 대한 APG alkyl chain 길이별 세정력 평가를 한 결과 계면 장력이 낮을수록, 단위 면적당 흡착량이 많을수록 우수한 세정력을 나타내었으며, 그 순서는 APG 0814> APG 1214> APG 10> APG 0810> APG 08과 같다.

Credit option is a policy that has been studied by many researchers in the area of supply chain management. This policy has been applied in practice to improve the profits of supply chain members. Usually, a credit option policy is proposed by the seller, and often under a symmetric information environment where members have complete information on each others' operations. In this paper, we investigate two scenarios: firstly, the seller offers a credit option to the buyer, and secondly, the buyer attempts to stretch the length of the credit period offered by the seller. The proposed model in both scenarios will be investigated under an asymmetric information structure where some information are private and are only known to the individual who has knowledge of this information. The interactions between buyer and seller will be modeled by non-cooperative Stackelberg games where the buyer and seller take turn as leader and follower. Among some of the numerical results obtained, the seller and buyer's profits obtained from symmetric information games are larger than those obtained from an asymmetric information game in both scenarios. Furthermore, both buyer and seller's profit in the second scenario are better than in the first scenario.

Using a three-dimensional numerical code, B3R developed for nuclide transport of an arbitrary length of decay chain in the buffer between the canister and adjacent rock in a high- level radioactive waste repository by adopting a finite difference method utilizing the control- volume scheme, some illustrative calculations have been done. A linear sorption isotherm, nuclide transport due to diffusion in the buffer and the rock matrix, and advection and dispersion along thin rigid parallel fractures existing in a saturated porous rock matrix as well as diffusion through the fracture wall into the matrix is assumed. In such kind of repository, buffer and rock matrix are known to be important physico-chemical harriers in nuclide retardation. To show effects of buffer and rock matrix on nuclide transport in HLW repository and also to demonstrate usefulness of B3R, several cases of breakthrough curves as well as three- dimensional plots of concentration isopleths associated with these two barriers are introduced for a typical case of decay chain of $^{234}$ Ulongrightarrow$^{230}$ Thlongrightarrow$^{226}$ Ra, which is the most important chain as far as the human environment is concerned.

Responding to rapid changes of global supply chain and fast increasing air cargo volume and demand for e-commerce market, this paper researched the development plans for regional airport specially focused on air cargo logostics through policy research. According to this research, political implications and development plans for Cheong Ju airport (CJJ) to become a part of global supply chain, a regional air cargo hub. Firstly, it is necessary to increase the length of the existing runway from 2,744m to 3,200m or to develop 3^rd runway only for a civil aircraft use. Secondly, it is inevitable to develop new air cargo terminal to handle and export such high value-added products as semi-conductor or rechargeable battery through airport. In addition, facing re-shoring trends among global supply chain, CJJ can increase its air cargo volume and also provide feeder service to Incheon airport, inducing global distribution center near airport site.

이전에 제시한 모델 1-3을 다시 확장하여 균열 암반에서의 일차원적 핵종이동에 관한 추계적인 모델을 제시하였다. 이 모델은 처분장 근처의 암반내의 균열을 통한 무한 길이를 갖는 핵종의 붕괴 사슬에 의한 이동을 연속시간 마코프 프로세스를 이용하여 모사한다. 이전의 결정론적 해석해에 의한 모델들이 균일한 다공성매질과 같은 단순성을 요구하고 핵종의 붕괴사슬의 수를 제한하며 균열암반매질내에서의 이동의 경우에는 균열에서 암반으로의 확산등이 고려되지 않거나 그 해의 형태가 복잡하다. 또다른 결정론적인 해를 제시하는 수치모델의 경우에도 해를 얻기 위한 과정이 상당히 복잡하고 정확한 해를 제공하지는 못한다. 이에 반해 이 모델은 매질에서의 핵종의 농도에 관한 기대값과 그 분산으로서 비교적 용이하게 해를 제시한다. 모델을 검증하고 그 효율성가 정착성을 예시하기 위하여 암반으로의 확산이 무시된 단순화된 매질에 대하여 3개의 붕괴 사슬을 갖는 가상의 핵종에 대하여 이동거리와 시간에 대한 농도에 대하여 정확한 해석해와의 비교가 행하여 졌다. 매질을 나눈 구획의 수에 종속 하는 수치분산을 보정하여 계산된 결과에서 이 모델이 해석해와 잘 일치하는 것을 알 수 있었다.
