To investigate the reason for the spatial difference in PM_2.5 (Particulate Matter, < 2.5 ㎛) concentration despite a similar synoptic pattern, a synoptic analysis was performed. The data used for this study were the daily average PM_2.5 concentration and meteorological data observed from 2016 to 2020 in Busan and Seoul metropolitan areas. Synoptic pressure patterns associated with high PM_2.5 concentration episodes (greater than 35 ㎍/m³) were analyzed using K-means cluster analysis, based on the 900 hPa geopotential height of NCEP (National Centers for Environmental Prediction) FNL (Final analysis) data. The analysis identified three sub-groups related to high concentrations occurring only in Busan and Seoul metropolitan areas. Although the synoptic patterns of high PM_2.5 concentration episodes that occur independently in Busan and Seoul metropolitan areas were similar, there was a difference in the intensity of pressure gradient and its direction, which tends to be an important factor determining the movement time of pollutants. The spatial difference in PM_2.5 concentration in the Korean Peninsula is due to the difference and direction of the atmospheric pressure gradient that develops from southwest to northeast direction.

The numerical simulations of flowfield and pollutant dispersion over two-dimensional hills of various shapes are described. The Reynolds-averaged Wavier-Stokes equations and concentration diffusion equation based on the gradient diffusion theory have been applied to the atmospheric shear flow over the bell-shaped hills which are basic components of the complex terrain. The flow characteristics such as velocity profiles of the geophysical boundary layer, speed-up phenomena, mean pollutant concentration profiles are compared with experimental data to validate the present numerical procedure and it has been found that the present numerical results agree well with experiments and other numerical data. It has been also found that the distributions of ground level concentration are strongly influenced by the source location and height.

The numerical simulations of flow and pollutant particle dispersion are described for two-dimensional bell shaped hills with various aspect ratios. The Reynolds-averaged incompressible Navier-Stokes equations with low Reynolds number $\kappa$-$\varepsilon$ turbulent model are used to simulate the flowfield. The gradient diffusion equation is used to solve the pollutant dispersion field. The code was validated by comparison of velocity, turbulent kinetic energy, Reynolds shear stress, speed-up ratio, and ground level concentration with experimental and numerical data. Good agreement has been achieved and it has been found that the pollutant dispersion pattern and ground level concentration have been strongly influenced by the hill shape and aspect ratio, as well as the location and height of the source.

An experimental study on the chromatographic separation of maltopentaose from a mixture, including glucose, maltose, maltotriose, and maltopentaose, was carried out in a nonionic polymeric sorbent column while varying the operating conditions, such as the solution pH, buffer contents, and isopropyl alcohol (1PA) concentration. Unlike the pH and buffer contents, the IPA concentration had a Significant impact on the single component chromatograms for maltopentaose. The retention times of the maltooligosaccharides with the nonionic polymeric sorbent Sp207 were in the following order: glucose < maltose < maltotriose < maltopentaose. From the experimental binary, ternary, and quaternary chromatograms, gradient chromatographic separation with a changing IPA concentration as a function of time was required to obtain high-purity maltopentaose and reduce the elution time.

The model of an isolated organ system has been constructed to simulated the behavior of drug in the circulatory system of an acting organ or site. The model is developed on the following assumptions : The drug in the microcirculatory system cannot permeate the capilary walls. The capilary bed is modeled as a simple ideal plug flow system with and without radial concentration gradient. The mathematical model is developed from basic considerations of drug distribution with hemodynamical and pharmacokinetical meanings. It is considered that a nonmetabolic drug substance is injected into the arterial inflow site of an isolated organ at a constant rate. The concentration of the drug in the outflow site is mathematically expressed as a function of time.

공모양의 단단한 종양안에서 수동조준된 약물의 전달에 관한 모델이론이 적절한 경계조건과 초기조건하에서 픽의 확산법칙으로부터 유도된다. 종양안의 농도는 초기값이 일정하면 시간과 지름의 함수로 나타난다. 생각실험(사고실험)으로부터 예측되는 바와 같이, 농도는 시간이 경과함에 따라 평형값에 접근한다. 시간에 따른 농도의 변화는 조직안의 약물의 확산계수, 종양의 크기, 주입된 약물의 양, 경계면에서의 농도의 물매(gradient)에 의해 결정된다.

To predict Daphnia secondary productivity along a trophic gradient indexed as total phosphorus (TP) concentration, we estimated energy transfer efficiencies from food quality for Daphnia such as eicosa-pentaenoic acid (EPA) or docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) content. Eleven flow-through Daphnia magna growth experiments were conducted with seston from 9 lakes, ponds and river waters. Primary productivities were estimated from food supply rates in the flow-through experiments, producing energy transfer efficiencies from seston to D. magna. We found DHA content was the best predictor of energy transfer efficiencies among the essential fatty acids. An asymptotic saturation model explained 79.6% of the variability In energy transfer efficiencies. Based on empirical data in this study and empirical models from literature, we predict that Daphnia productivity would peak in mesotrophic systems by decreasing food quality and Increasing food quantity along trophic gradient.

This study suggests the design of the functionally gradient composite, [0/90/0/core]$_s$ cross-ply laminate, to prevent stress concentration induced from the difference of rigidity between the bone and the artificial hip joint and to reinforce the wear property of the surface and the expectation of their mechanical properties. First, the four-point bending test is done about wet bones and dry bones to know the mechanical properties of the cortical bones. In result, the wet bone shows the viscoelastic behavior and the dry bone shows the elastic behavior. Moreover, we expect the properties of the proposed gradient composites as a function of carbon fiber volume fraction in each layer to apply Halpin-Tsai equation, CLPT(classical laminate plate theory), and Bernoulli beam theory etc. and decide the thickness ratio of each lamina in order to match Young's modulus of the anisotropic cortical bone with the proposed gradient composites.

본 논문의 목적은 우리나라 도시공간구조 변화를 시계열적으로 분석하고, 지역별 규모별 그 특성을 도출하는 것이다. 본 논문에서 도시공간구조는 인구밀도경사함수(population gradient curve)를 통해 분석하였고, 분석의 시간적 범위는 자료구축의 가능성을 고려하여 2000년부터 2010년까지로 설정하였으며, 공간적 범위는 광역시를 제외한 70개 도시이다. 본 논문의 분석결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 우리나라 도시들은 평균적으로 도심 인구밀도는 감소하고, 인구밀도 경사도는 완만해져 도심 집중현상보다 외곽지역으로의 확산이 활발하게 진행되는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 비수도권 지역은 전국 평균과 동일한 형태의 공간구조 변화를 경험하였지만, 수도권 지역은 외곽지역뿐만 아니라 도심까지 인구밀도가 함께 높아지는 현상이 나타났다. 셋째, 인구 20만 이상의 중도시와 대도시에서는 도심 집중현상보다는 도시 외곽지역으로의 확산이 우세하게 나타난 반면, 인구 20만 미만의 소도시에서는 도심 인구밀도가 높아지면서 인구밀도 경사도의 절댓값이 커지는 도심 집중현상, 즉 압축도시의 특성이 나타나는 것으로 분석되었다.

현재 멀티미디어 기술의 발달로 인하여 영상의 전처리 및 후처리 과정을 이용한 수정 작업으로 고품질의 영상 표현 및 다양한 영상 처리가 가능하다. 영상 처리 기법 중에서 이방성 확산의 경우 영상의 스페클 노이즈 제거, 에지 검출, 영상 분할 등에 응용할 수 있는 효과적인 확산 필터링으로 활용되고 있다. 하지만 전통적인 이방성 확산은 십자형 커널을 기반으로 하고 있기 때문에 확산 필터링을 반복 적용하면 영상의 에지가 수평 및 수직 방향으로 집중되는 문제점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 십자형 커널 기반의 이방성 확산 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 기울기의 방향성에 기반한 새로운 이방성 확산 방식을 제안한다. 제안된 방식은 십자형 커널을 확장하여 대각선 방향 정보를 포함한 8방향의 정방형 커널을 기반으로 작은 기울기를 갖는 방향으로 이방성 확산을 적용한다. 제안된 방식의 실험 결과 에지가 수평 및 수직 방향으로 집중되는 문제점을 해결하면서 임펄스성 노이즈를 제거하여 고품질의 영상을 획득할 수 있었다.
