최근 댐과 같은 수공구조물의 건설로 대규모 홍수피해는 급격히 줄어들었지만, 돌발홍수(flash flood)로 인한 저지대 침수 등의 도시홍수 발생빈도가 급증하고 있다. 2020년에는 최장의 장마가 관측되었으며, 전국적으로 홍수로 인한 침수피해가 발생하였다. 홍수에 선제적으로 대응하기 위해서 신뢰성 있는 홍수예·경보가 필요하며, 이를 위해서는 신속하고 정확성있는 강우예측이 선행되어야 한다. 이에 본 연구에서는 초단기 강우예측을 목적으로 둔 레이더 기반의 강우앙상블 예측모형을 개발하였다. 라그랑지안 지속성(Lagrangian persistence)을 기반으로 개발하였으며, 강우장의 이동 패턴은 이류특성을 활용해 추정하였다. 즉, 강우장의 예측정확도를 향상시키기 위해 공간적 규모별 캐스캐이드(cascade) 방법으로 분리해 이동 경로를 추정하였다. 예측시간에 따른 강우량은 각 캐스캐이드에 자기회귀모형을 적용하였다. 레이더 강우량은 2016-2020년 사이에 발생한 강우사상에 대한 환경부 홍수통제소에서 제공한 레이더 합성장을 이용하였다. 예측강우량에 대한 평가는 RMSE, Pearson's Correlation, FSS 등 통계치를 통해 수행하였다. 본 연구에서 소개된 강우예측 모형은 초단기 홍수예측에 정확도 높은 강우 정보를 제공할 수 있으며, 이에 따라 홍수피해를 저감하는데 도움이 될 것으로 판단된다.

Fiber-reinforced composites transmitting microwaves of certain frequencies or bands were proposed. These frequency selective fabric composites(FSFCs) are fabricated by weaving carbon fibers and dielectric fibers that build periodic patterns. Design parameters affecting the electromagnetic characteristics of FSFCs were widely discussed, Then the electromagnetic characteristics of a fabricated plain-weave FSEC were investigated with regard to the electrical conductivities of carbon roving, the fiber undulation, and the aperture-to-cell ratio, for the electrical conductivities, its dependence on frequency as well as on the fiber volume fraction of carbon roving was taken into account. Constituent material properties and the fiber undulation had little effect on the EM properties of the fabricated FSFC, while the aperture-to-cell ratio made a profound effect on them.

Seasonal and stational variation of SS and COD were investigated from February 2008 to December 2010 and the relationship between them was discussed. During three years monitoring, SS decreased significantly (46% decline) possibly due to the increase of precipitation and thereby resulting salinity drop. COD on average was the highest in 2009. SS was the highest in autumn and the lowest in winter, and over 72% of SS was FSS. While SS is high in the upper sampling stations of the bay with shallow water, COD values do not show any relationship to the geomorphological characteristics. $COD_{ins}$, which was defined as COD after filtration, ranged 56%(winter) ~ 44.6%(summer) and showed no correlation with SS. It indicates that high SS concentration is not necessarily related to the high $COD_{ins}$. The seasonal $COD_{ins}$/SS data, which can be interpreted as COD density in SS, shows that SS in winter contains the dense COD materials compared to the other seasons.

The shock wave and boundary layer interaction patterns in an over-expanded rocket nozzle are associated with the production of undesirable side-forces during the start-up and shut-down processes of the engine. In the present work, a computational study is carried out to investigate the effect of the transient nozzle pressure ratio (NPR) on the flow fields inside the nozzle. The unsteady, compressible, axisymmetric, Navier-Stocks equations with SST k-${\omega}$ turbulence model are solved using a fully implicit finite volume scheme. NPR is varied from 2.0 to 10.0, in order to simulate the start-up and shut-down processes of the rocket engine. It is observed that the interaction patterns and the hysteresis phenomenon strongly depend on the time variation of NPR, leading to significantly different characteristics in the lateral forces.

The general fearfulness of hospitalized school-age children and the emotional anxiety of their mothers were investigated and compared to those of normal children and their mothers, in order to provide theoretical basis for establishing comprehensive nursing care of hospitalized children including their mothers. The present study was carried out from Sept. 5th to Oct. 3rd, 1983. A total of 81 hospital I zed children and their mothers were investigated and 95 normal elementary school children and their mothers as control group were surveyed The general fearfulness of children and the emotional anniety of their mothers were measured through questionaire by using Geer's FSS-Ⅱscale and Spielberger's STAI scale, respectively. The results were analyzed by computer using S.P.S.S. program and summarized as follows: 1. The emotional anxiety of the mothers of hospitalized children was greater than that of normal children's mothers. (P=0.000). 2. The general fearfulness of hospitalized children was greater than that of normal children (p=0.000) 3. The general fearfulness of hospitalized children varied with children's age and sex, mother's age and mother's experience of hospitalization. a) The general fearfulness of the hospitalized children at the age of 7∼9 was greater than that of the age 10∼12. (P=0.020) b) Girl's scored greater fearfulness than boys. (p=0.037) c) The younger mother's age resulted in the higher children fearfulness. (P= 0.0059). d) When the mothers did not have experience of hospitalization, the children's fearfulness was high. (P=0.014) 4. The anxiety-state of hospitalized children's mother was proportionally reacted to their anxiety-trait. (r=0.694, p=0.000) 5. The relationship between mother's emotional anxiety and their hospitalized children's general fearfulness failed to show statistical significance. (r= 0.1184, P＞0.05). These results indicated that the general fearfulness of hospitalized children was affected by environmental factors beside mother's emotional anxiety. An extensive study on the factors influencing the general fearfulness of hospitalized children is needed.

In this paper, the X-band reconfigurable frequency selective surface having flexible geometry was proposed. The proposed RFSS is composed of patterns of cross-shaped loop with inductive stub, which can control the frequency response for C-Band and X-band by ON/OFF state of PIN diode. To minimize the parasitic effect and to obtain the high level of isolation between the unit cell of FSS and the bias circuit, we designed the grid type bias line on bottom layer through via hole. The measured transmission characteristics show good agreement with the simulation results and good stability of frequency response for different incident angles and curvatures of surface.

Based on the studies on the motion vector distributions estimated on the image sequences, we proposed constrained diamond search (DS) algorithm for fast block-matching motion estimation. By considering the fact that motion vectors are searched within the 2 pixels distance in vertically and horizontally on average, we confirmed that DS algorithm achieves close performance on error ratio and requires less computation compared with new three-step search (NTSS) algorithm. Also, by applying displaced frame difference (DFD) to DS algorithm, we reduced the computational loads needed to estimate the motion vectors within the stable block that do not have motions. And we reduced the possibilities falling into the local minima in the course of estimation of motion vectors by applying DFD to DS algorithm. So, we knew that proposed constrained DS algorithm achieved enhanced results as aspects of error ratio and the number of search points to be necessary compared with conventional DS algorithm, four step search (FSS) algorithm, and block-based gradient-descent search algorithm

A variety of different methods to generate diverse proteins, including random mutagenesis and recombination, are currently available, and most of them accumulate the mutations on the target gene of a protein, whose sequence space remains unchanged. On the other hand, a pool of diverse genes, which is generated by random insertions, deletions, and exchange of the homologous domains with different lengths in the target gene, would present the protein lineages resulting in new fitness landscapes. Here we report a method to generate a pool of protein variants with different sequence spaces by employing green fluorescent protein (GFP) as a model protein. This process, designated functional salvage screen (FSS), comprises the following procedures： a defective GFP template expressing no fluorescence is firstly constructed by genetically disrupting a predetermined region(s) of the protein, and a library of GFP variants is generated from the defective template by incorporating the randomly fragmented genomic DNA from E. coli into the defined region(s) of the target gene, followed by screening of the functionally salvaged, fluorescence-emitting GFPs. Two approaches, sequence-directed and PCR-coupled methods, were attempted to generate the library of GFP variants with new sequences derived from the genomic segments of E. coli. The functionally salvaged GFPs were selected and analyzed in terms of the sequence space and functional property. The results demonstrate that the functional salvage process not only can be a simple and effective method to create protein lineages with new sequence spaces, but also can be useful in elucidating the involvement of a specific region(s) or domain(s) in the structure and function of protein.

A 6-month-old male Poodle was referred with chief complaint of dysponea and cough. Cyanosis was not detected. This dog was diagnosed as a case of canine patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) by X-ray and ultrasonography. Diuretics and bronchodialators were administered for 4 weeks. Clinical symptoms were not improved. Thoracotomy was done at right recumbent position. The length of ductus arteriosus was 8 mm and the diameter was 6 mm, respectively. Double ligation was performed in surgery. Continuous cardiac murmur, cough and strong femoral pulsation were disappeared after surgery. The diameters of the pulmonary artery and vein found to normal by X-ray on 10 days after operation. The diameter of the aorta measured to be larger than that of the main pulmonary artery by ultrasonography. The fractional shortening (FS) on 10 days after surgery was 17.32% by ultrasonography. The needle-acupuncture therapy was used in acupoints BL-15 as local point plus PC-6, HT-7 and HT-5 as distant points for 3 days (15 min/once/a day). The FSs were increased to 21.31% and 29.44% at 1 and on 3 days after acupuncture, respectively. The present patient was a case of typical canine PDA that showed favorable therapeutic responses by surgery combined with needle-acupuncture treatment.

The purpose of this study is to compare fatigue, stress and quality of sleep between good sleep quality and poor sleep quality. Fatigue, stress and quality of sleep were assessed using three questionnaires; fatigue severity scale(FSS), Perceived stress scale(PSS), and Pittsburgh sleep quality index(PSQL). As a result of the study, the higher stress(22.2 vs. 19.0, p=.000) and poorer quality of sleep(11.2 vs. 5.7, p=.000) were observed between good sleep quality and poor sleep quality groups. Our finding show that time of going to bed and stress level influenced quality of sleep.
