Most galaxies are believed to evolve through mergers and accretions. In particular, minor mergers and gas accretion appear to play an important role in galaxy evolution in the present-day Universe. Tidally-disrupted debris from such processes remain as diffuse, low-surface brightness structures because the dynamical timescale in the outskirts is significantly longer than that in the central regions. Although these structures will give us useful insight into the mass assembly history of galaxies, it is difficult to detect them due to their faint surface brightness. In order to investigate the structural properties of outskirts in nearby galaxies, we conduct deep and wide-field imaging survey with KMTNet. We present our observing strategy and an optimal data reduction process to recover faint extended features in the images of KMTNet. Using the imaging data of NGC 1291 obtained from KMTNet, we find that a peak-to-peak sky gradient can be reduced less than 0.4-0.6% of the original sky level in the entire image. We also find that we can reach the surface brightness of ${\mu}_{(B,1{\sigma})}$ ~ 29.5, ${\mu}_{(R,1{\sigma})}$ ~ 28.5 mag $arcsec^{-2}$ in one-dimensional profile, that is mainly limited by the uncertainty in the sky determination. It indicates that deep imaging data of KMTNet is suitable to study the extended faint features of nearby galaxies, such as stellar halos, outer disks, and dwarf companions.

홍수 시 하천을 따라 유하되는 유송잡물은 구조물에 집적을 통해 유수의 흐름을 방해하고 구조물 주변의 지반을 약화시키거나 월류로 인한 심각한 피해를 야기 시킨다. 교량의 경우 유송잡물의 집적은 교각의 항력을 증가시켜 전도파괴를 유발시킬 수 있으며, 교각주변 흐름교란을 통한 하상 세굴로 인해 기초부를 파괴시키기도 한다. 또한 통수단면적 증가로 인해 높아진 수위는 제방월류로 인해 재산 및 인명피해를 유발하기도 한다. 본 연구는 이러한 유송잡물의 집적을 억제시키는 저감시설물을 대상으로 연구를 수행하고자 한다. 유송잡물 저감시설 중 우회말뚝을 대상으로 수리모형실험을 수행하고 실규모 실험을 통해 저감효과를 검토하였다. 우회말뚝은 교각 전면부에 상류방향으로 이격되어 설치되는 말뚝형태의 구조물로 유송잡물의 우회를 통해 교각에 집적을 저감하는 목적으로 설치된다. 본 연구에서는 수리실험 및 실규모실험을 통해 우회말뚝의 저감능력 검토를 수행하였으며, 1개의 말뚝을 대상으로 교각과의 이격거리와의 관계를 검토하고자 하였다. 수리모형실험의 결과 유송잡물의 길이가 경간장의 100% 일 경우 저감시설이 없을 경우 교각에 87.6% 집적이 발생하였으나 말뚝이 설치되었을 경우 교각에 직접적으로 집적되는 유송잡물은 없으며 31.7% 유송잡물은 우회말뚝에 집적되는 것으로 나타났다. 실규모 실험의 경우 우회말뚝이 없는 경우 집적률은 60%의 집적이 이루어졌으나 우회말뚝을 설치한 경우 10%의 집적률로 나타났다. 우회 말뚝설치에 따른 저감효과는 발생하였으나 이격거리에 대한 저감능력의 차이는 없는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 우회말뚝의 이격거리가 길어질수록 말뚝주변에서 회전되어진 유송잡물이 교각에 간헐적으로 집적되는 현상이 관측되었다. 따라서 말뚝의 위치를 선정하기 위해서는 유송잡물의 길이를 고려하여 설치하는 것이 유리할 것으로 판단된다.

The surface texture produced via surface texturing is an important approach for controlling the tribological behavior of friction behavior of mechanical devices. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of grooves generated via ultrasonic nanocrystal surface modification (UNSM) technology on the tribological performance of AISI 4150 steel against stainless steel 316L. In the study, tribological tests are performed under two different regimes, namely mixed and hydrodynamic lubrication, by varying the applied normal load and reciprocating speed during the tests. According to the test results, the friction coefficient decreases as static load (10 N, 30 N, and 50 N) of UNSM technology increases in the mixed lubrication regime. Conversely, the friction coefficient increases as the static load (10 N, 30 N, and 50 N) of UNSM technology increases in the hydrodynamic lubrication regime. Hence, the results indicate that micro-grooves generate hydrodynamic pressure in the outlet, which increases the oil film thickness between the two mating surfaces. This potentially leads to a reduction in friction in the mixed lubrication regime due to the prevention of contact of asperities and debris. However, the results indicate an adverse effect in the hydrodynamic lubrication regime. In this regard, additional experiments should be performed to investigate the effect of grooves generated by UNSM technology at varying conditions on the friction behavior of AISI 4150 steel, which in turn can be controlled by the generated pressure and oil film thickness at the contact interface.

Uranium mill tailing ponds (UMTPs) are risk source of debris flow and a critical source of environmental U and Rn pollution. The technology of microbial induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) has been extensively studied on reinforcement of UMTs, while little attention has been paid to the effects of MICP on U & Rn release, especially when incorporation of metakaolin and bacillus subtilis (MBS). In this study, the reinforcement and U & Rn immobilization role of MBS -MICP solidification in different grouting cycle for uranium mill tailings (UMTs) was comprehensively investigated. The results showed that under the action of about 166.7 g/L metakaolin and ~50% bacillus subtilis, the solidification cycle of MICP was shortened by 50%, the solidified bodies became brittle, and the axial stress increased by up to 7.9%, and U immobilization rates and Rn exhalation rates decrease by 12.6% and 0.8%, respectively. Therefore, the incorporation of MBS can enhance the triaxial compressive strength and improve the immobilization capacity of U and Rn of the UMTs bodies solidified during MICP, due to the reduction of pore volume and surface area, the formation of more crystals general gypsum and gismondine, as well as the enhancing of coprecipitation and encapsulation capacity.

천연자원의 고갈과 온실가스의 감축은 우리가 당면하고 있는 현안이다. 이러한 이유로 폐기물의 재활용은 국제사회적으로도 큰 관심사이며, 국내에서도 비용 대비 효과적인 처리 및 재활용 기술의 개발이 지속적으로 이루어져야 하는 과제를 안고 있다. 본 연구에서는 유기성 폐기물의 처리 및 재활용에 따른 비용원단위 등을 비교 분석 함으로써 효과적인 자원화 방안에 대하여 고찰하였다. 본 연구에서 조사된 유기성 폐기물은 폐수처리오니류, 공정오니, 동 식물성 잔재물 등이며, 해당 폐기물을 배출하는 80개 사업장을 대상으로 처리현황 및 처리비용을 조사하였다. 유기성 폐기물의 경제성 있는 적정 처리방법은 퇴비화와 시멘트 부원료로 사용되는 것으로 나타났다. 유기성 폐기물의 성상, 유해물질 등에 따라 경제성 분석이 다를 수 있겠지만, 조사대상 업체로부터 현실적인 폐기물의 처리결과를 바탕으로 분석하였다. 특히, 유기성 폐기물을 퇴비화 제품으로 재활용한다면, 비료의 원료가격 등이 상승됨에 따라 비료가격은 증가 추세로 보이기 때문에 경제적인 효과가 있을 것으로 판단된다. 유기성 폐기물의 안정적인 처리 및 재활용을 위해서는 폐수처리오니 등 유해특성을 갖고 있는 폐기물과 유기성 폐기물의 재활용 처리시 기술적 어려운 점인 악취, 침출수, 이물질에 대한 기술적인 노력을 기울여야 할 것이다.

이 연구는 집중호우시 산사태의 발생가능성과 발생시간을 사전에 예측하기 위한 노력의 일환으로 기존에 개발된 RTI 경보모델을 우리나라에 적용 분석한 사례이다. RTI(Rainfall Triggering Index)는 강우강도(I) 유효 누적강우량($R_t$)의 곱으로 정의되는 것으로서, 강우기간 동안 특정 시간(t)에서 산사태가 발생할 가능성을 평가하는데 사용된다. RTI의 상부임계값($RTI_{UC}$)과 하부임계값($RTI_{LC}$) 과거 산사태 발생시 강우자료 분석을 통해 각 지역별로 설정할 수 있으며, 강우강도가 상부임계값을 초과할 때 실제 산사태가 발생하는 것으로 이해할 수 있다. 이러한 분석은 궁극적으로 향후 집중호우가 내릴 경우 특정지역의 산사태 발생가능성은 물론 산사태 발생시기를 예상할 수 있으며, 이를 토대로 사전에 산사태 발생경보를 발령하는데 중요한 근거로 활용될 수 있다. 이와 같은 이론을 우리나라에 적용하기 위해 2006년 7월 13일부터 7월 19일까지 강원도 인제군 일대에 내린 강우자료와 산사태 발생과의 관계를 분석한 결과, 실제 산사태가 발생한 7월16일 오전 11시경을 기준으로 23시간, 11시간, 9시간 전에 강우강도가 RTI의 상부임계값을 초과하였다. 이를 토대로 이와 같은 세 차례에 걸친 산사태 경보의 발령이 필요하였음을 알 수 있었다.

Purpose: Aquacel Ag$^{(R)}$ is a hydrofiber wound dressing integrated with ionic silver. Sorbact$^{(R)}$ is a hydrophobiccoated dressing that uses the hydrophobic interaction with microbes. In this study, we compared the wound healing effects and the antibacterial effects of Medifoam$^{(R)}$, Betadine soaked, Aquacel Ag$^{(R)}$ and Sorbact$^{(R)}$ dressings against MRSA-infected wounds. Methods: Eighty rats were divided into four groups: Medifoam$^{(R)}$; Betadine soaked; Aquacel Ag$^{(R)}$; and Sorbact$^{(R)}$. A $1.5{\times}1.5cm$ square full-thickness wound was made on the dorsum of each rat and infected with MRSA. Twenty-four hours thereafter, each dressing was applied to the wound and changed every other day. One, 3, 7, 11 and 15 days after the wound infection, swab culture grade, wound bed appearance score, and wound defect size change were evaluated, and 7 and 15 days after, histologic evaluation was compared between the groups. Results: The bacteria load of wounds in the Sorbact$^{(R)}$ group decreased earlier than in the other groups. The wound bed appearance score of the Sorbact$^{(R)}$ group also increased quicker, compared with the other groups. However, the size of wounds of the Aquacel Ag$^{(R)}$ group decreased more rapidly, compared with other groups. From the histologic point of view, there was no significant difference between Betadine soaked, Aquacel Ag$^{(R)}$ and Sorbact groups. Conclusion: The hydrophobic dressing using Sorbact$^{(R)}$ showed a more rapid reduction in the MRSA load and an elevation in the wound bed appearance score, but a slower decrease in wound size change due to detachment of wound bed tissue when the dressing was eliminated in the low exudate wound. The silver-containing hydrofiber dressing using Aquacel Ag$^{(R)}$ was more effective in ultimate wound size reduction, but some debris was trapped in the wound tissue and induced foreign body reaction in the high exudate wound. Thus, ongoing selection process of treatment based on the evaluation of the infectious wound state will be very important.

오이녹반모자이크바이러스(Cucumber green mottle mosaic virus; CGMMV)는 박과작물에 병을 일으키는 중요한 바이러스로 종자 및 토양전염을 하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구는 CGMMV의 토양전염 생태를 구명하고, 직접적인 화학적 방제방법이 없는 식물 바이러스의 특성을 고려하여 윤작이나 포장위생 등 경종적 방제법을 이용한 CGMMV의 방제전략에 대하여 고찰하였다. CGMMV는 기주식물이 없는 토양에서 17개월 동안 50% 정도의 활성을 유지하였으며, 토양 내에 존재하는 식물의 잔재물 속에서도 1년 이상 높은 활성을 유지하였다. 자연적인 상태에서 CGMMV의 토양전염율은 1.0~3.6%인 데 반해, 수박묘를 정식할 때 뿌리에 상처를 내어 정식한 결과 토양전염율이 12~36%로 증가하여 뿌리의 상처가 CGMMV의 토양전염에 크게 관여함을 알 수 있었다. 수박재배시 작부제계에 따른 CGMMV의 후대감염율을 분석한 결과 2000년에는 답전윤환지 7.3%, 연작지 76.8%, 2001년의 경우 답전유환지 6.1%, 연작지 50.2%로 답전윤환에 의한 윤작이 CGMMV의 피해경감에 효과가 있음을 알 수 있었다.

C-shaped canal configuration is very difficult to treat because that clues about preoperative canal anatomy cannot be ascertained from clinical crown morphology and limited information can be derived from radiographic examination. This study was done to get more informations about the root and canal configuration of C-shape root by 3-dimensionally reconstructing for the purpose of enhancing success rate of endodontic treatment. 30 mandibular molars with C-shaped root were selected. Six photo images from occlusal, apical, mesial, distal, buccal, lingual directions and radiographic view were taken as preoperative ones to compare them with 3-D image. After crown reduction to the level of 1-2mm over pulpal floor was performed, teeth were stored in 5.25% sodium hypochlorite solution for the removal of pulp tissue and debris. They were cleaned under running water, allowed to bench dry and embedded in a self-curing resin. This resin block was serially ground with a microtome (Accutom-50, Struers, Denmark) and the image of each level was recorded by digital camera (FinePix S1-pro, Fuji Co., Japan). The thickness of each section was 0.25mm. Photographs of serial sections through all root canal were digitized using Adobe Photoshop 5.0 and then minimum thickness of open and closed sites were measured (open site is the surface containing occluso-apical groove closed site is oppsite). After dizitization using 3-D Doctor (Able software Corp, USA). 3D reconstruction of the outer surface of tooth and the inner surface of pulp space was made. Canal classsification of C-shaped roots was performed from this 3-D reconstructed image. The results were as follows : 1. Most C-shape rooted teeth showed lingual groove (28/30). 2 According to Vertuccis' calssification, type I, II, III, IV, VII were observed. but also new canal types suck as 2-3-2, 1-2-3-2. 2-3-2-1, 2-3-2-3 were shown. 3 There was little difference in minimum thickness on coronal and apical portions, but open site were thinner than closed site on mid portion. Conclusively, 3D reconstruction method could make the exact configurations of C-shape root possible to be visualized and analyzed from multi-directions. Data from minimum thickness recommend cleaning and shaping be more carefully done on dangerous mid portion.

Failure to use effective methods of reduction, fixation and immobilization may lead to osteomyelitis with the exposed necrotic bone, as the overzealous use of transosseous wires & plates that devascularizes bone segments in the compound comminuted fractures of mandible. Once osteomyelitis secondary to fractures has become established, intermaxillary fixation should be instituted as early as possible. Fixation enhances patient comfort and hinders ingress of microorganisms and debris by movement of bone fragments. Teeth and foreign materials that are in the line of fracture should be removed and initial debridement performed at the earliest possible time. Grossly necrotic bone should be excised as early as possible ; no attempt should be made to create soft tissue flaps to achieve closure over exposed bone. The key to treatment of chronic osteomyelitis of the mandible is adequate and prolonged soft tissue drainage. If good soft tissue drainage is provided over a long period, sequestration of infected bone followed by regeneration or fibrous tissue replacement will occur so that appearance and function are not seriously altered. Localization and sequestration of infected mandible are far better performed by natural mechanism of homeostasis than by cutting across involved bone with a cosmetic or functional defect. As natural host defenses and conservative therapy begin to be effective, the process may become chronic, inflammation regresses, granulation tissue is formed, and new blood vessels cause lysis of bone, thus separating fragments of necrotic bone(sequestra) from viable bone. The sequestra may be isolated by a bed of granulation tissue, encased in a sheath of new bone(involucrum), and removed easily with pincettes. This is a case report of the long-term conservative drainage care in osteomyelitis associated with mandibular fractures.
