  • The gonadosomatic index (GSI), oogenesis and reproductive cycle in female Neptunea (Barbitonia) afhritica cumingii were investigated by light and electron microscope observations. In the early vitellogenic oocyte, the Golgi complex and mitochondria were involved in the formation of glycogen, lipid droplets and yolk granules. Late in the vitellogenic oocytes, the rough endoplasmic reticulum and multivesicular bodies were involved in the formation of proteid yolk granules in cytoplasm. In particular, compared with the results of other gastropods, it showed a different result that appearances of cortical granules at the cortical layer and microvilli on the vitelline envelope, which is associated with heterosynthetic vitellogenesis, were not observed in vitellogenic oocytes during oogenesis. A mature yolk granule was composed of three components: main body (central core), superficial layer, and the limiting membrane. Monthly changes in the gonadosomatic index in females studied in 2004 and 2005 were closely associated with ovarian developmental phases. Spawning occurred between May and August in 2004 and 2005 and the main spawning occurred between June and July when the seawater temperature rose to approximately $18-23^{\circ}C$. The female reproductive cycle can be classified into five successive stages: early active stage (September to October), late active stage (November to February), ripe stage (February to June), partially spawned stage (May to August), and recovery stage (June to August).

  • Sarcoidosis is a multisystem granulomatous disease of unknown etiology. Vocal fold paralysis secondary to sarcoidosis is extremely rare but it can develop as a result of compressive lymphadenopathy, granulomatous infiltration, and neural involvement. We report the case of a 56-year-old woman who presented with unilateral vocal fold paralysis and enlarged supraclavicular lymph nodes. Computed tomography of the neck revealed multiple, enlarged, and matted lymph nodes at the cervical level of IV. An ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy of the lymph node was performed, and a histopathological diagnosis of sarcoidosis was made by validating the presence of noncaseating granuloma. After implementation of steroid therapy, the patient exhibited immediate recovery from vocal fold paralysis. Although an extremely rare disease, sarcoidosis should be included in the differential diagnosis of vocal fold paralysis. Accurate diagnosis and prompt steroid treatment may reduce the morbidity of patients with vocal fold paralysis secondary to sarcoidosis.

  • Autonomous vehicles require precise knowledge of their position, velocity and orientation in all weather and traffic conditions in any time. And, these information is effectively used for path planning, perception, and control that are key factors for safety of vehicle driving. For this purpose, a high precision GNSS technology is widely adopted in autonomous vehicles as a core localization and navigation method. However, due to the lack of infrastructure as well as cost issue regarding GNSS correction data communication, only a few high precision GNSS technology will be available for future commercial autonomous vehicles. Recently, a high precision GNSS sensor that is based on a Broadcast-RTK system to dramatically reduce network maintenance cost by utilizing the existing broadcasting network is released. In this paper, we present the performance test result of the broadcast-RTK-based commercial high precision GNSS receiver to test the feasibility of the system for autonomous driving in Korea. Massive measurement campaigns covering of Korea region were performed, and the obtained measurements were analyzed in terms of ambiguity fixing rate, integer ambiguity loss recovery, time to retry ambiguity fixing, average correction information update rate as well as accuracy in comparison to other high precision systems.

  • Objective: The rehabilitation protocols for functional recovery have been emphasized after total knee arthroplasty, and Pilates is in the spotlight as a safe and easily modified exercise method. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of mat Pilates exercise on lower extremity function, postural balance, and walking in the individuals with total knee arthroplasty. Design: One group pretest-posttest design. Methods: Eighteen older women with unilateral total knee arthroplasty was recruited in the study. The subjects were evaluated on lower extremity function, postural balance, and walking before and after mat Pilates exercise. All subject performed one hour mat Pilates exercise, 3 times a week for 8 weeks. Mat Pilates exercises were focused on core stability and lower extremity strengthening and, more dynamic movements were added to increase the difficulty of movements every two weeks. The lower extremity function was measured using the Western Ontario and McMaster Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), knee joint position sense, and five times sit-to-stand test. Postural balance was assessed by single leg stance test, functional reach test, and timed up and go test. Walking was measured by OptoGait system to temporospatial parameter. Results: The lower extremity function, postural balance, and walking were significantly improved after mat Pilates exercise, except for five times sit-to-stand test (p<0.05). Conclusions: This study demonstrated that the mat Pilates exercise was a useful method to improve lower extremity function, postural balance, and walking in the older women with unilateral total knee arthroplasty.

  • Intermediate Geomaterials (IGMs) are natural formation materials that exhibit the engineering behavior (strength and compressibility) between soils and rocks. The engineering behavior of such material is highly unpredictable as the IGMs are stiffer than soils and weaker/softer than rocks. Further, the characterization of such material needs exposure to both soil and rock mechanics. In most conventional designs of geotechnical structures, the engineering properties of the IGMs are either aligned with soils or rocks, and this assumption may end up either in an over-conservative design or under-conservative design. Hence, many researchers have attempted to evaluate its actual engineering properties through laboratory tests. However, the test results are partially reliable due to the poor core recovery of IGMs and the possible sample disturbance. Subsequently, in-situ tests have been used in recent years to evaluate the engineering properties of IGMs. However, the respective in-situ test finds its limitations while exploring IGMs with different geological formations at deeper depths with the constraints of sampling. Standard Penetration Test (SPT) is the strength-based index test that is often used to explore IGMs. Moreover, it was also observed that the coefficient of variation of the design parameters (which represents the uncertainties in the design parameters) of IGMs is relatively high, and also the studies on the probabilistic characterization of IGMs are limited compared with soils and rocks. With this perspective, the present article reviews the laboratory and in-situ tests used to characterize the IGMs and explores the shear strength variation based on their geological origin.

  • 2025 MWt 가압경수로인 울진 3, 4호기에는 설계기준초과사고인 완전급수상실사고를 완화하기 위하여 안전감압계통이 채택되었다. 본 논문은 울진 3, 4호기의 안전감압계통의 방출유량을 결정하기 위한 해석방법 및 결과에 대하여 논의하였다. 안전감압계통의 방출용량을 다음과 같은 두가지의 설계요건에 따라 결정하였다 : 1) 두 개의 고압안전주입펌프 중 하나의 펌프만이 작동하고 운전원이 안전감압계통의 한 계열의 감압경로를 가압기안전밸브가 열리자마자 개방하였을 경우 노심노출을 방지하여야 한다 2) 두 개의 고압안전주입펌프가 모두 작동하고 두 계열의 안전감압경로를 가압기안전밸브가 열린 후 30분 뒤에 개방하였을 경우 노심노출을 방지하여야 한다. CEFLASH-4AS/REM 전산코드의 모델 및 해석 결과의 타당성을 검토하기 위하여 REL-AP5/MOD3를 이용한 해석을 수행하였다. 운전원의 복구과정이 없을 경우와 운전원이 충전 및 유출운전에 의해 사고를 완화하는 경우의 완전급수상실사고 경위에 대해 수치모사를 수행하였다. 두 사고 경 위에 대해 CEFLASH-4AS/REM에 의해 예측된 원자로계통의 주요 열수력학적 거동이 RELAP5 /MOD3에 의한 결과와 정성·정량적으로 잘 일치하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 결론적으로 울진 3, 4호기에 대해 완전급수상실사고시 안전감압계통을 이용한 충전 및 유출운전에 의해 잔열제거 및 일차계통냉각재 재고량 유지가 성공적으로 이루어짐을 수치모사를 통해 확인 할 수 있었다.

  • 비전통 저류층에서 에너지 자원의 회수율을 높이기 위해서는 저류층 내의 미세 공극 형태와 연결도 등을 포함하는 공극 구조 연구가 필수적이다. 본 연구에서는 셰일 저류층 내 나노스케일의 공극 구조 연구에 적합한 조건과 방법을 찾기 위해 집속 이온 빔 시스템(Focused Ion Beam, FIB)과 이온 밀링 시스템(Ion Milling System, IMS)을 이용하여 분석을 진행하였다. 셰일 저류층 내 공극 구조 연구를 위해 리아드 분지에서 획득된 A-068 시추공의 시료를 사용하였다. 각 시료마다 특성이 다르기 때문에 시료 전처리 방법과 조건을 달리하여 최적의 조건을 찾았고 FE-SEM을 이용하여 공극 이미지를 획득하였다. 연구 결과 국소 부위의 공극구조를 관찰하기 위해서는 FIB를 사용하여 시표 표면을 밀링 후 바로 공극 이미지를 얻는 것이 효율적이고 반면에 넓은 면적을 단시간에 밀링하여 여러 공극 구조를 관찰하기 위해서는 IMS를 이용해야 한다는 것을 확인했다. 특히 탄산염 광물 함량이 높고 강도가 큰 암석에 대해서는 FIB보다는 IMS를 활용하여 밀링을 수행해야 공극 구조 관찰이 가능하다는 사실이 밝혀졌다. 본 연구를 통해 셰일 저류층 내 공극 구조 관찰을 위한 방법이 정립되었으며 향후 이를 이용한 셰일 가스 저류층 시료 분석을 통해 공극의 크기나 형태가 셰일가스 회수 증진에 미치는 영향을 밝힐 수 있을 것이다.

  • Objectives: Pinelliae Rhizoma has traditionally been used as an anti-depressant in oriental medicine. This study is to investigate the effect of Pinelliae Rhizoma extract (PRe) on psychological stress in genome wild expression of mice. Methods: After giving physical stress to mice, PRe was orally administered with 100 mg/kg/day for five days. After extracting whole brain tissue from the mice, their genome changes were observed by micorarray analysis method. The genome changes were analyzed by IMAGENE 4.0, TREEVIEW, FatiGo algorithems, BOND database, cytoscape program, etc. Results: 1. PRe administered group were remained at normal level; 60% of increase was shown in expressed genes by physical stress, and 65% of decrease was shown in expressed genes by psychological stress. 2. Genes with increased expression in control group that remained at a normal state in PRe administered group were involved with the gene of a cellular metabolic process on biological process, protein binding on molecular function, and cell part on cell composition. The pathway was found to be cytokin-cytokin receptor interaction. 3. Genes with decreased expression in control group that remained at a normal state in PRe administered group were involved with the gene of a cellular metabolic process on biologiacl detail and coupled ATPaes activity on molecular function. This gene related path was Ubiquintin mediated proteolysis etc. 4. Core node genes analyzed by protein interaction network were Vinculin, Cell sdivision cycle 42 homolog (S. cerevisiae) etc. They played an important role in maintaining cytoskeleton and controlling cell cycle. Conclusions: Several genes were up-regulated and down-regulated in response to psychological stress. The expression of most of the genes that were altered in response to psychological stress was restored to normal levels in PRe treated mice. When the interaction network information was analyzed, the recovery of the core node genes in PRe treated mice indicates that this final set of genes may be the effective target of PRe.
