The design of the vacuum vessel of KT-2(a large-aspect-ratio, mid-size tokamak) is presented. The KT-2 vacuum vessel provides necessary environments to contain a plasma of double-null configuration with elongation of up to 1.8. The vacuum vessel is designed as an all-metal welded structure. Eddy currents are induced on the vessel during all stages of the plasma operation. Influences of the continuous vessel on the plasma were investigated. No significant effect of the vessel on the plasma in every aspect of null formation, plasma initiation, plasma control was found. Stresses and deformations in the vessel by atmospheric pressure and electromagnetic forces due to the eddy currents were calculated using 3D FEM code.

A double-skinned composite tubular (DSCT) column, which is an internally confined concrete-filled tubular column with a hollow section, has been developed for efficient use of materials that reduce self-weight and enhance seismic performance. It exhibits excellent material behavior with ductility owing to the confinement induced by outer and inner steel tubes. This study conducted axial compression tests considering the effects of steel tube thickness and hollow diameter ratios of DSCT columns on the material behavior of confined concrete under pure axial compression on concrete cores. From the axial compression tests, various combinations of outer and inner tube thicknesses and two different hollow section ratios were considered. Additionally, confined concrete material behavior, axial strength, failure modes, and ductility of DSCT columns were evaluated. Based on this study, it was concluded that the tests show a good correlation with peak strength and shapes of nonlinear stress-strain curves presented in literature; however, the thinner outer and inner steel tubes may reduce the ductility of DSCT columns when using thinner outer and inner tubes and higher confined stress levels. Finally, the minimum thickness requirements of the steel tubes for DSCT columns were discussed in terms of strength and ductility of test specimens.

The Hantaan virus (HTNV) is an enveloped virus that is capable of inducing low pH-dependent cell fusion. We molecularly cloned the viral glycoprotein (GP) and nucleocapsid (NP) cDNA of HTNV and expressed them in Vero E6 cells under the control of a CMV promoter. The viral gene expression was assessed using an indirect immunofluorescence assay and immunoprecipitation. The transfected Vero E6 cells expressing GPs, but not those expressing NP, fused and formed a syncytium following exposure to a low pH. Monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against envelope GPs inhibited cell fusion, whereas MAbs against NP did not. We also investigated the N-linked glycosylation of HTNV GPs and its role in cell fusion. The envelope GPs of HTNV are modified by N-linked glycosylation at five sites: four sites on G1 (N134, N235, N347, and N399) and one site on G2 (N928). Site-directed mutagenesis was used to construct eight GP gene mutants, including five single N-glycosylation site mutants and three double-site mutants, which were then expressed in Vero E6 cells. The oligosaccharide chain on residue N928 of G2 was found to be crucial for cell fusion after exposure to a low pH. These results suggest that G2 is likely to be the fusion protein of HTNV.

A layered planer SOFC module was designed from planar-type SOFC. It was prepared by multi-layered ceramic technology. To form the cathode and the anode in the layered structure, reliable channels should be made on the both side of electrolyte perpendicularly. However, monolithic SOFC using multi-layered ceramic technology hasn't been studied another group, and the warpage of electrolyte in the channel, also, hasn't been studied, when electrode is printed on the electrolyte. In this study, the channels are prepared with electrode printing, and their warpage are evaluated. In the case of YSZ without electrode, the warpages are nothing in the limit of measurement using optical microscope. The warpage of 'YSZ-NiO printed' increases than that of 'NiO printed', and also, the case of 'double electrode printed' is similar to 'YSZ-NiO printed'. It is thought that, in the printed electrolyte, the warpage is related to the difference of the sintering behavior of each material.

As is well known, cooperative sensing can significantly improve the sensing accuracy as compared to local sensing in cognitive radio networks (CRNs). However, a large number of cooperative secondary users (SUs) reporting their local detection results to the fusion center (FC) would cause much overhead, such as sensing delay and energy consumption. In this paper, we propose a fast cooperative sensing scheme, called double threshold fusion (DTF), to reduce the sensing overhead while satisfying a given sensing accuracy requirement. In DTF, FC respectively compares the number of successfully received local decisions and that of failed receptions with two different thresholds to make a final decision in each reporting sub-slot during a sensing process, where cooperative SUs sequentially report their local decisions in a selective fashion to reduce the reporting overhead. By jointly considering sequential detection and selective reporting techniques in DTF, the overhead of cooperative sensing can be significantly reduced. Besides, we study the performance optimization problems with different objectives for DTF and develop three optimum fusion rules accordingly. Simulation results reveal that DTF shows evident performance gains over an existing scheme.

Double tooth is a dental anomaly consequent to fusion of two or more teeth or gemination of a single tooth. This report describes a unique case of double tooth in relation to a mandibular lateral incisor exhibiting the presence of four root canals. The role of conventional radiography and advanced three-dimensional imaging techniques in the better assessment of complex root canal systems and their aid in endodontic management has also been highlighted.

In this paper, a three-dimensional hydrogen desorption model is applied to a thin double-layered annulus ZrCo hydride bed and validated against the temperature evolution data measured by Kang et al. The present model reasonably captures the bed temperature evolution behavior and the 90% hydrogen discharging time. In addition, the performance of thin double-layered annulus bed is evaluated by comparing with a simple cylindrical bed using hydrogen desorption model. This study provides multi-dimensional contours such as temperature and H/M atomic ratio in the metal hydride region. This numerical study provides fundamental understanding during hydrogen desorption process and indicates that efficient design of the metal hydride bed is critical to achieve rapid hydrogen discharging performance. The present three-dimensional hydrogen desorption model is a useful tool for the optimization of bed design and operating conditions.

두 개의 치아가 하나로 붙은 것처럼 보이는 경우, 쌍생인지 융합인지 여부를 결정할 수 없을 경우에 이중치(double tooth)라는 용어를 사용한다. 이중치는 유치에 더 호발하나 영구치에도 약 0.1% 발생율을 보이며 심미적인 문제와 우식의 호발, 치주적 문제, 치열의 문제를 보일 수 있다. 이러한 이중치의 치료는 여러 전문 분야의 협진을 필요로 한다. 우선, 순측과 구개측의 중심구는 치아우식에 민감하므로 조기에 열구를 전색하는 것이 필요하며, 영구 치열에서는 융합치를 외과적으로 구강 내 또는 구강 외에서 분리한 후 교정적으로 배열할 수 있으며, 치관 모양을 다듬기 위하여 수복 치료가 필요할 수 있다. 한 개의 근관을 가진 경우는 순면구의 모양을 다듬고, 근원심 크기를 감소시킨 후 복합레진을 적용하는 방법도 있으나 불가피하게 발치해야 하는 경우도 있다. 이 경우 교정 및 보철 치료가 필요하며 임플란트 매식술도 고려된다. 그러나 이러한 치료의 선택은 임상적 상황에 맞추어 이루어져야한다. 이번 증례들에서도 심미적인 문제와 교합의 문제를 발견할 수 있었으며, 첫 번째 증례에서는 이런 문제를 해결하기 위하여 교정적, 근관치료, 레진 수복술, 외과적인 구강내 절제술을 이용하여 치료하였으나, 치근단 흡수가 관찰되었다. 두 번째와 세 번째 증례에서는 3차원 전산화 단층 촬영을 이용하여 정확한 치아의 내부와 외부 구조를 파악할 수 있었으며, 일반 방사선 사진으로는 판단이 어려운 근관 분리 여부와 근관의 융합 정도와 융합 위치 등을 진단할 수 있었다.

In this paper, a three-dimensional hydrogen absorption model is applied to a thin double-layered annulus ZrCo hydride bed and validated against the temperature evolution data measured by Kang et al. The present model reasonably captures the bed temperature evolution behavior and the 99% hydrogen charging time. The equilibrium pressure expression for hydrogen absorption on ZrCo is derived as a function of temperature and the H/M atomic ratio based on the pressure-composition isotherm data given by Konishi et al. In addition, this present model provides multi-dimensional contours such as temperature and H/M atomic ratio in the thin doublelayered annulus metal hydride region. This numerical study provides fundamental understanding during hydrogen absorption process and indicates that efficient design of the metal hydride bed is critical to achieve rapid hydrogen charging performance. The present three-dimensional hydrogen absorption model is a useful tool for the optimization of bed design and operating conditions.
