First-principles investigations on the hybrid one dementional hexagonal hybrboron-nitride nano ribbons (BNNRs) with a armchair graphene nano-ribbons(AGRNRs), are presented. Electronics properties of the mixed armchair BNC nano-ribbon (BNCNRs) structure show control of a band gap on all cases at the special K-point. And we have studied, the band gap is direct in all cases. The band gap of mixed ABNCNRs could be divided into three groups (${\Delta}3p$, ${\Delta}3p+1$ and ${\Delta}3p+2$) and decrease with the increase of the width. Also these results show similar to the AGNRs case. Different from the band gap value ordering of AGNRs (${\Delta}3p+1$ > ${\Delta}3p$ > ${\Delta}3p+2$), the ordering of ABNCNRs is ${\Delta}3p$ > ${\Delta}3p+1$ > ${\Delta}3p+2$. The discrepancy may come from the differences between the edges of AGRNRs and the boundaries of hybrid BNCNRs. In addition, the bandgap of ABNCNRs are much smaller than those of the corresponding AGNRs. Our results show that the origin of band gap for BNCNRs with armchair shaped edges arises from both quantum confinement effect of the edges. These results similar to thecase of AGNRs. These properties of hybrid BN/C nano-ribbon structure may offer suitable bandgap to develop nnanoscale electronics and solar cell beyond individual GNRs and BNNRs.

Buckling Restrained Braces (BRB) have been widely used in the construction industry as they utilize the most desirable properties of both constituent materials, i.e., steel and concrete. They present excellent structural qualities such as high load bearing capacity, ductility, energy-absorption capability and good structural fire behaviour. The effects of size and type of filler material in the existed gap at the steel core-concrete interface as well as the element's cross sectional shape, on BRB's fire resistance capacity was investigated in this paper. A nonlinear sequentially-coupled thermal-stress three-dimensional model was presented and validated by experimental results. Variation of the samples was described by three groups containing, the steel cores with the same cross section areas and equal yield strength but different materials (metal and concrete) and sizes for the gap. Responses in terms of temperature distribution, critical temperature, heating elapsed time and contraction level of BRB element were examined. The study showed that the superior fire performance of BRB was obtained by altering the filler material in the gap from metal to concrete as well as by increasing the size of the gap. Also, cylindrical BRB performed better under fire conditions compared to the rectangular cross section.

In the block type VHTR core, there are inevitable gaps among core blocks for the installation and refueling of the fuel blocks. These gaps are called bypass gap and the bypass flow is defined as a coolant flows through the bypass gap. Distribution of core bypass flow varies according to the reactor operation since the graphite core blocks are deformed by the fast neutron irradiation and thermal expansion. Furthermore, the cross-flow through an interfacial gap between the stacked blocks causes flow mixing between the coolant holes and bypass gap, so that complicated flow distribution occurs in the core. Since the bypass flow affects core thermal margin and reactor efficiency, accurate prediction and evaluation of the core bypass flow are very important. In this regard, experimental and computational studies were carried out to evaluate the core bypass flow distribution. A multi-block experimental apparatus was constructed to measure flow and pressure distribution. Multi-block effect such as cross flow phenomenon was investigated in the experiment. The experimental data were used to validate a CFD model foranalysis of bypass flow characteristics in detail.

연구배경 : HSVtk 유전자를 암세포에 이입하여 GCV에 대해 선택적으로 감수성을 증가시키는 HSVtk/GCV 유전자치료에서 bystander effect는 모든 암세포에 유전자를 이입하지 않고도 치료효과를 얻을 수 있도록 한다. 그러나 현존하는 viral vector는 유전자이입 효율이 낮아 임상적으로 치료효과를 기대하는데는 한계가 있다. 따라서 유전자의 이입효율이 높은 새로운 vector의 개발과 함께 bystander effect의 극대화를 통해 치료효과를 증가시킬 수 있는 방법 등이 요구된다. 최근 gap junction을 통한 세포간의 metablic cooperation이 bystander effect의 주요기전임이 밝혀졌고 retinoids는 gap junction을 통한 세포간의 communication을 증가시킨다고 보고되었다. 저자들은 HSVtk/GCV 유전자치료에서 bystander effect에 미치는 retinoids의 효과를 조사하였다. 방 법 : Adenovus와 retrovirus vector를 이용하여 connexin 43를 발현하는 악성중피종세포와 connexin 43를 발현하지 않는 SKHep-J 세포주에 HSVtk 유전자를 이입한 후 HSVtk 유전자가 이입된 세포와 HSVtk 유전자가 이입되지 않은 세포들을 여러가지 비율로 혼합한 mixing study를 시행하였으며 $10^{-10}M-10^{-6}M$ RA 처리 유무에 따른 bystander effect에 의한 살상효과를 비교하였다. 그리고 gap junction을 통한 세포간의 communication에 대한 retinoids의 영향을 조사하기 위해 retinoids 처리에 따른 세포간 communication을 FACS를 이용하여 double-dye transfer study로 측정하였다. 결 과 : Connexin 43를 발현하지 않는 SKHep-J 세포주에서는 RA 처리유무에 따른 bystander effect에 의한 살상효과의 차이가 없었다. 그러나 connexin 43를 발현하는 악성중피종 세포주에서는 $10^{-8}M-10^{-6}M$ RA처리시 세포간의 communication과 bystander effect가 RA를 처리하지 않은 대조군에 비해 유의하게 증가되었다. 결 론 : RA는 gap junction을 통한 세포간의 communication을 증가시켜 HSVtk/GCV 유전자치료에서 bystander effect에 의한 살상효과를 증가시켰다. 이러한 결과는 HSVtk/GCV 유전자치료의 효과를 증가시킬 수 있는 새로운 방법이 될 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

This study empirically analyzes the impact of inventory management performance on the energy efficiency in Korean petrochemical companies. The concept of the distance function is used to define the energy efficiency and the estimation of the distance function is performed using the stochastic frontier analysis. The inventory turnover is selected as the variable indicating the inventory management performance of the company. The main results of this study are as follows. First, the inventory turnover has a positive impact on energy efficiency. Second, during the period over 2011~2015, while the gap in energy efficiency among the companies expanded, the average energy efficiency decreased. Third, the average energy efficiency in upstream process companies was greater than downstream process companies and the gap in energy efficiency among downstream process companies was greater than upstream process companies. Fourth, the average marginal effect of inventory turnover on energy efficiency increased gradually from 2011 to 2015. Finally, the average marginal effect of inventory turnover in downstream process companies was greater than upstream process companies, and the gap in the marginal effect of inventory turnover among downstream process companies was greater than upstream process companies. These results together imply the importance of inventory management in terms of energy efficiency.

The degree of the photodoping process in Ag(100[.angs.])/a-Se$_{75}$Ge$_{25}$(1500[.angs.]) films has measured as a function of the photon energy between 1.5[eV] and 2.9[eV] with the exposing time. The "window" characteristics of Ag occur at 3400[.angs.] (3.65[eV]) and Ag is almost transparent in this region. It is shown that transmittance is almost constant (40-50%) for the wavelength ranges of our experiment. It is found that the energy gap of a unexposed a-Se$_{75}$Ge$_{25}$ film is 1.81[eV]. Ag photodoping process results in the photodarkening effect which the absorption edge shifts to the long wavelength. Especially, very large band shift (-0.3[eV]) is obtained by exposing He-Ne laser(6328[.angs.]).. We have obtained "the U-type property" for Ar He-Ne and semiconductor laser. It is associated with the variation of energy gap(E$_{g}$) with photo-dose and substantially is explained by DWP model.l.gap(E$_{g}$) with photo-dose and substantially is explained by DWP model.

A multi-effect air gap membrane distillation (ME-AGMD) module for pesticide wastewater treatment is studied with internal heat recovery, sensible heat of brine recovery, number of stages and the use of fresh feed as cooling water in a single module is implemented in this study. A flat sheet polytetrafluroethylene (PTFE) membrane was used in the 4-stage ME-AGMD module. The maximum value of permeate flux could reach $38.62L/m^2h$ at feed -coolant water temperature difference about $52^{\circ}C$. The performance parameter of the module like, specific energy consumption and gain output ratio (GOR) was investigated for the module with and without heat recovery. Also, the module performance was characterized with respect to the separation efficiency of several important water quality parameters. The removal efficiency of the module was found to be >98.8% irrespective water quality parameters. During the experiment the membrane fouling was caused due to the deposition of the salt/crystal on the membrane surface. The membrane fouling was controlled by membrane module washing cycle 9 h and also by acidification of the feed water (pH=4) using 0.1M HCl solution.

A computational study was carried out in order to investigate the ground effect of a circular cylinder in the presence of a moving wall at a Reynolds number of 2.0${\times}$104. The viscous-incompressible Navier-Stokes equations and Spalart-Allmaras turbulent model of the commercial CFD code were adopted for this numerical analysis. The moving wall was set parallel with the freestream, and the speed of motion was equal to the freestream velocity. The gap ratio is defined as the distance ratio between the circular cylinder diameter and the height from the moving wall. The numerical results show that there are the differences among the each of the stages in evidence of the vorticity contours and the polar diagrams of $C_l$ vs. $C_d$. The 4 stages of the gap ratio are defined according to the flow features, whose stages are divided into small, intermediate, large and convergence gap ratios, respectively.
