본 연구에서는 용매열합성법(solvothermal method)을 이용해 나노기공 HKUST-1 분리막을 제조하였다. In-situ 용매열합성법을 이용하는 경우, 매크로 기공의 알루미나 지지체 위에 균일하고 균열이 없는 HKUST-1 층을 형성하기 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 용매열합성 전에 알루미나 지지체의 표면을 가열한 상태에서 용매열합성의 전구체 용액을 분무하므로 연속적이고 균열이 없는 HKUST-1 분리막을 제조할 수 있었다. 합성된 HKUST-1 분리막은 XRD, FE-SEM 및 단일 기체투과 실험 등을 통해 분석하였다.

Infrared (IR) spectroscopy is a powerful technique for observing organic molecules, as it combines sensitive vibrational excitations with a non-destructive probe. However, gaseous volatile compounds in the air are challenging to detect, as they are not easy to immobilize in a sensing device and give enough signal by themselves. In this study, we fabricated a thin nanocrystalline metal-organic framework (nMOF) film on a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) substrate to enhance the IR vibration signal of the gaseous volatile compounds captured within the nMOF pores. Specifically, we synthesized nanocrystalline HKUST-1 (nHKUST-1) particles of ca. 80 nm diameter and used a colloidal dispersion of these particles to fabricate nHKUST-1 films by a spin-coating process. After finding that benzene was readily adsorbed onto nHKUST-1, an nHKUST-1 film deposited on a plasmonic Au substrate was successfully applied to the IR detection of gaseous benzene in air using surface-enhanced IR spectroscopy.

The aim of this study was to evaluate expression of COX-1 in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and its prognostic value. mRNA of COX-1 was detected in 42 paired RCC and adjacent normal tissues with quantitative realtime polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Expression of COX-1 was also evaluated in 196 RCC sections and 91 adjacent normal tissues with immunohistochemistry. Statistical analysis was performed to assess COX-1 expression in RCC and its prognostic significance. The results of qRT-PCR showed mRNA levels of COX-1 in RCC tissues to be significantly higher than that in adjacent normal tissues (p < 0.001). Immunohistochemical assays also revealed COX-1 to be overexpressed in RCC tissues (p < 0.001). Statistical analysis demonstrated high expression of COX-1 was correlated with tumour size (p = 0.002), pathological stage (p = 0.003), TNM stage (p = 0.003, 0.007, 0.027, respectively), and tumour recurrence (p < 0.001). Survival analysis indicated patients with high expression of COX-1 had shorter survival time (p < 0.001), and COX-1 was an independent predictor. This is the first study to reveal overexpression of COX-1 in RRC and point to use as a prognostic marker in affected patients.

A series of wind tunnel free-decay sectional model dynamic tests were conducted to examine the effects of torsional-to-vertical natural frequency ratio of 2DOF bridge dynamic systems on the aerodynamic and dynamic properties of bridge decks. The natural frequency ratios tested were around 2.2:1 and 1.2:1 respectively, with the fundamental vertical natural frequency of the system held constant for all the tests. Three 2.9 m long twin-deck bridge sectional models, with a zero, 16% (intermediate gap) and 35% (large gap) gap-to-width ratio, respectively, were tested to determine whether the effects of frequency ratio are dependent on bridge deck cross-section shapes. The results of wind tunnel tests suggest that for the model with a zero gap-width, a model to approximate a thin flat plate, the flutter derivatives, and consequently the aerodynamic forces, are relatively independent of the torsional-to-vertical frequency ratio for a relatively large range of reduced wind velocities, while for the models with an intermediate gap-width (around 16%) and a large gap-width (around 35%), some of the flutter derivatives, and therefore the aerodynamic forces, are evidently dependent on the frequency ratio for most of the tested reduced velocities. A comparison of the modal damping ratios also suggests that the torsional damping ratio is much more sensitive to the frequency ratio, especially for the two models with nonzero gap (16% and 35% gap-width). The test results clearly show that the effects of the frequency ratio on the flutter derivatives and the aerodynamic forces were dependent on the aerodynamic cross-section shape of the bridge deck.

본 연구에서는 1차원 포토닉 크리스탈과 금속-유기 구조체 (MOF) 물질인 Hong Kong University of Science and Technology(HKUST-1)을 이용한 수분 감지 컬러 센서를 제안한다. 1차원 포토닉 크리스탈은 주기적인 굴절률 변화에 의해 포토닉 밴드갭이 존재하고, 특정한 파장 대역의 광 성분을 차단 및 반사한다. HKUST-1의 굴절률은 건조한 환경과 습한 환경에서 그 값이 서로 다르다. 여기서 우리는 포토닉 밴드갭의 유무를 활용하여 FDTD 시뮬레이션으로 센서를 설계하였다. 광학 해석 결과, 투과된 광의 색 변환보다 반사된 광의 색 변환이 우수하여 반사된 광을 이용하였다. 그리고 포토닉 밴드갭의 중심 파장이 550 nm인 경우, 건조한 환경 대비 습한 환경의 최대 피크 값이 약 9.5배로 증가했으며, 무채색에서 녹색으로 색 변환이 가능하여 센서로의 특성이 우수하였다. 본 연구 결과는 MOF 물질의 수분 감지 컬러 센서로의 활용을 제시하였으며, MOF 물질의 나노 구조 설계로 산업 디바이스로의 활용성도 확대할 것이다.

코드는 단어들의 집합이다. 어떤 단어도 다른 것의 Prefix가 아닌 단어들의 집합을 Prefix(-Free) Code라 부르고, 여기서 Prefix Coding이란, 주어진 수 n에 대하여, n개의 단어로 이루어진 Prefix 코드들 중에서 단어길이의 총합이 최소인 최적 Prefix 코드를 찾는 것을 말한다. 이 논문에서는 이의 특수한 경우로서, 특정 정규언어군에 속하는 임의의 정규언어 L에 대하여, L에 속하는 Prefix 코드들 중 최적의 코드를 찾는 방법을 제시한다. 또, 수 n이 변함에 따라 최적 Prefix 코드의 구조가 어떻게 변하는지, 그 성질을 트리구조를 이용해 밝힌다.

나노여과를위한 박막 나노복합체(TFN) 멤브레인 기술의 발전은 천연 자원에서 오염 물질을 제거하는 데 중요하다. 최근에는 기존의 박막 복합체(TFC) 및 나노복합체 멤브레인에서 불가피한 단점을 극복하기 위해 다양한 금속유기구조체(MOF) 수정이 테스트되었다. 일반적으로 MIL-101(Cr), UiO-66, ZIF-8 및 HKUST-1 [Cu3(BCT2)]은 용매 투과성 및 용질 제거 측면에서 막 성능을 현저하게 향상시키는 것으로 입증되었다. 이 리뷰에서는 이러한 MOF가 나노 여과에 미치는 영향에 대한 최근 연구가 논의될 것이다. 서로 다른 금속유기구조체의 동시 사용 및 고유한 금속유기구조체 레이어링 기술(예: 딥 코팅, 스프레이 사전 배치, Langmuir-Schaefer 필름 등)과 같은 다른 새로운 기능도 멤브레인 성능을 향상시켰다. 이러한 MOF 변형 TFN 멤브레인은 각각의 TFC 및 TFN 멤브레인에서 분리 성능을 향상시키는 것으로 자주 나타났을 뿐만 아니라 많은 보고서에서 비용 효율적이고 환경 친화적인 공정에 대한 잠재력을 설명한다.

A copper-based metal organic framework (MOF) named Cu-BTC, also known as HKUST-1, was synthesized by using a solvothermal method at various synthesis temperature, time and pressure. The obtained samples were characterized with Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) for phase structure, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) for crystal structure, and nitrogen adsorption-desorption for pore textural structure. The Cu-BTC sample was also studied for $CO_2$ adsorption. The analysis results displayed that the sample synthesized at the condition of temperature: $120^{\circ}C$, synthesis time: 12 hours, pressure: 1 bar exhibited a good crystal structure with uniform size of octahedral particles. The BET data revealed a high surface area of 1741.7 $m^2g^{-1}$ and a pore volume of 0.7137 $cm^3g^{-1}$and exhibiteda maximum $CO_2$ adsorption capacity of 170 mg/g of the sorbent at $25^{\circ}C$.

Empirical band-ratio algorithms and artificial neural network techniques to retrieve sea surface chlorophyll concentrations were evaluated in the Bohai Sea of China by using an extensive field observation data set. Bohai Sea represents an example of optically complex case II waters with high concentrations of colored dissolved organic mattei (CDOM). The data set includes coincident measurements of radiometric quantities and chlorophyll a concentration (Chl), which were taken on 8 cruises between 2003 and 2005, The data covers a range of variability in Chl in surface waters from 0.3 to 6.5 mg $m^{-3}$. The comparison results showed that these empirical algorithms developed for case I and case II waters can not be applied directly to the Bohai Sea of china, because of significant biases. For example, the mean normalized bias (MNB) for OC4V4 product was 1.85 and the root mean square (RMS) error is 2.26.
