This paper considers the cell loss probability(CLP) in a multiplexer with the superposition of heterogeneous ON/OFF sources. The input traffic is composed of k classes. Traffic of class i is the superposition of M_(i) ON/OFF sources. Recently, the method based on the Markov modulated deterministic process(MMDP) is presented. Basically, it is the discretized model of stochastic fluid flow process(SFFP) and gives the CLP very fast, but under-estimates the CLP especially when the value of estimated CLP is very low. This paper develops the discretized model of Markov modulated Poisson process(MMPP). It is a special type of switched batch Bernoulli process(SBBP). Combining the transition probability matrix of MMDP and SBBP according to the state which is characterized by the arrival rate, this paper presents hybrid algorithm. The hybrid algorithm gives better estimate of CLP than that of MMDP and faster than SBBP.

Interfacial transition zone (ITZ)은 골재-시멘트 복합체 사이의 영역으로써, 콘크리트에서 가장 취약한 영역으로 알려져 있으며, 이는 점진적으로 변화하는 불균질한 상으로 이루어져 있다. 경량 고강도 콘크리트 개발을 위해 물-바인더 비가 낮은 고강도 시멘트 복합체와 경량골재 사이의 Interfacial transition zone (ITZ)의 역학적 특성 평가는 필수적이다. 하지만 ITZ는 복잡하고 다공성 구조를 가지고 있기 때문에, 이의 역학적 특성은 아직 명확하지 않다. 또한, 경량골재 ITZ는 일반골재보다 다양한 변수 (물-바인더 비, 골재의 흡수율, 양생조건 등)에 의해 변화한다. 따라서 본 연구에서 골재의 종류 및 크기에 따른 ITZ의 역학적 특성을 분석하고자 한다. 이를 위해 나노 인덴테이션 기법을 이용하여 물-바인더 비가 0.2인 고강도 시멘트 복합체와 표준사 및 최대치수가 각각 2mm, 5mm인 경량골재 ITZ의 탄성계수를 측정하였다.

Phase transition is not unique to solid state systems or homogeneous molecular systems but it is also observed in highly heterogeneous biological systems. Phase transition and phase separation in cells are recently being found to be central to many biological functions by temporarily and locally controlling the storage and exchange of certain proteins and RNAs. There are also clues suggesting them to be playing pivotal roles in the spatial organization of chromosomes into topological domains and its time-dependent control. Here we introduce early efforts to explain at the molecular level how the spatiotemporal organization of chromosomes are programmed and modulated by the sequence and chemical modifications of the DNA. Continuing works may provide a physical framework to understand the molecular level control of chromosome structure and dynamics that determine the epigenetic state and the fate of the cells.

Welded joint generally has heterogeneity of strength, material, and fracture toughness and it is important to understand the characteristics of material strength and fracture of welded joint considering heterogeneous effect. Characteristics of strength and fracture of an undermatched joint under dynamic loading was studied by round-bar tension tests and thermal elastic-plastic analyses in this paper. The strength and fracture of the undermatched joints should be evaluated based on the effects of the strain rate and the temperature including temperature rise during the dynamic loading. The differences of fracture characteristics like such as ductile-to-brittle transition behavior are well precisely explained from the stress-strain distribution obtained by numerical analysis.

This study addresses a microfluidic method to uniformly form diacetylene (DA) liposomes and control their size. DA liposomes are biochemical sensor materials with a unique property such that when they are polymerized to polydiacetylene (PDA) they exhibit non-fluorescent blue to fluorescent red phase transition upon chemical or thermal stress. The liposome size and distribution are important because they significantly affect the phase transition. So far, DA Liposomes, have been prepared by mixing of bulk phases leading to heterogeneous, polydisperse distribution in size. Therefore, additional post-processes are required such as sonication or membrane extrusion to obtain an appropriate size of liposomes. Here, we report a novel strategy using a microfluidic chip and hydrodynamic focusing to form DA liposomes and control their size. Preliminary results obtained by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and dynamic light scattering (DLS) show that the microfluidic strategy generates more monodispersed liposomes than a bulk method.

현대 nodal code는 원자로의 출력분포와 임계도를 정확하면서도 매우 효율적으로 계산해낸다. 그러나 이 경우 핵연료 집합체내의 세세한 출력분포는 알 수가 없게 되는데 본 논문에서는 이러한 것을 nodal 계산결과로부터 재생하는 방법에 대해서 연구해 보았다. 본 연구에서는 핵연료 집합체의 표면부근에서 열중성자속의 분포가 급격히 변하는 현상을 고려한 개선된 form function 방법을 개발하였다. 새 방법을 몇 개의 가압경수로 benchmark problem에 응용해본 결과 기존의 방법에서 초래되었던 열 중성자속의 큰 재생오차가 속 중성자 속의 재생오차와 비슷하게 줄었으며 따라서 출력분포의 재생오차도 크게 감소하였다. 또한 중성자속의 분포변화가 매우 큰 baffle과 인접한 집합체에서의 출력분포 재생오차도 크게 줄일 수 있었다.

Flooding events often result from extreme precipitations driven by various climate mechanisms, which are often disregarded in flood risk assessments. To bridge this gap, we propose a climate-mechanism-based flood frequency analysis that accommodates the direct linkage between the dominant climate processes and risk management decisions. Several statistical methods have been utilized in this approach including the Markov Chain analysis, K-nearest neighbor (KNN) resampling approach, and Z-score-based jittering method. After that, the impacts of climate change are associated with the modification of the transition matrix (TM) and the application of the quantile mapping approach. For this study, we have selected the Nam River Basin, South Korea, to consider the heterogeneous impacts of the two climate mechanisms, including the Tropical Cyclone (TC) and non-TCs. Based on our results, while both climate mechanisms have significant impacts on future flood extremes, TCs have been observed to bring more significant and immediate impacts on the flood extremes. The results in this study have proven that the proposed approach can lead to a new insights into future flooding management.

저압 화학 기상증착법으로 제작한 비정질 실리콘의 표면 형태 및 결정 성장 과정을 증착조건과 열처리 조건의 변화에 따라 조사하였다. 비정질에서 결정으로 변화하는 전이온도인 570~$590^{\circ}C$에서 증착한 시편은 (311)조직의 거친 표면으로 성장하였다. 같은 증착 온도에서 두께가 두꺼울수록 다결정에서 비정질로 변화하였다. 증착하는 과정에서의 결정화는 기판에서부터 시작되지만, 진공상태를 그대로 유지하고 비정질 실리콘을 전이온도에서 열처리하면 표면 실리콘 원자가 이동하여 결정화하였다.

This study investigates the causal relationship between public and private external debt and economic growth in developing countries. Our model includes 18 selected Asian developing and transition economies from 1995 thru 2019. We employ the dynamic heterogeneous panel data methods, pooled mean group (PMG), robust cross-sectional augmented autoregressive distributed lag (CS-ARDL), and pairwise panel causality test. The results of PMG and CS-ARDL show the existence of causality between external debt and economic growth both in the short-run and long-run. The pairwise Granger causality test found the bidirectional causal relationship runs from total external debt, public external debt, and private external debt to economic growth and economic growth to external debt. The results showed first the existence of causality in the short-run and long-run between external debt and economic growth and the second, bi-directional causality that runs from external debt to economic growth and economic growth to external debt. Both the dynamic models and robust estimator found the same inferences about the impact of main variables on economic growth in Asian developing and transition economies. The findings of this study suggest to assure debt management, investment in productive sectors, increase domestic savings, decrease external dependency, and focus on international trade.

Transition metal oxides formed by a single or heterogeneous combination of transition metal ions and oxygen ions have various types of crystal structures, which can be classified as layered structures and non-layered structures. With non-layered structures, it is difficult to realize a two-dimensional structure using conventional synthesis methods. In this study, we report the synthesis of cobalt oxide into wafer-scale nanosheets using a surfactant-assisted method. A monolayer of ionized surfactant at the water-air interface acts as a flexible template for direct cobalt oxide crystallization below. The nanosheets synthesized on the water surface can be easily transferred to an arbitrary substrate. In addition, the synthesizing morphological and crystal structures of the nanosheets were analyzed according to the reaction temperatures. The electrochemical properties of the synthesized nanosheets were also measured at each temperature. The nanosheets synthesized at 70 ℃ exhibited higher catalytic properties for the oxygen evolution reaction than those synthesized at other temperatures. This work suggests the possibility of changing material performance by adjusting synthesis temperature when synthesizing 2D nanomaterials using a wide range of functional oxides, resulting in improved physical properties.
