A new numerical weather prediction and dispersion model, the Operational Multi-scale Environment model with Grid Adaptivity(OMEGA) including an embedded Atmospheric Dispersion Model(ADM), is introduced as a next generation atmospheric simulation system for real-time hazard predictions, such as severe weather or the transport of hazardous release. OMEGA is based on an unstructured grid that can facilitate a continuously varying horizontal grid resolution ranging from 100 km down to 1 km and a vertical resolution from 20 -30 meters in the boundary layer to 1 km in the free atmosphere. OMEGA is also naturally scale spanning and time. In particular, the unstructured grid cells in the horizontal dimension can increase the local resolution to better capture the topography or important physical features of the atmospheric circulation and cloud dynamics. This means the OMEGA can readily adapt its grid to a stationary surface, terrain features, or dynamic features in an evolving weather pattern. While adaptive numerical techniques have yet to be extensively applied in atmospheric models, the OMEGA model is the first to exploit the adaptive nature of an unstructured gridding technique for atmospheric simulation and real-time hazard prediction. The purpose of this paper is to provide a detailed description of the OMEGA model, the OMEGA system, and a detailed comparison of OMEGA forecast results with observed data.

Solar energy is calculated using high-resolution digital elevation model (DEM). In focus on Seoul metropolitan area, correction coefficients of direct and diffuse solar energy with the topographic effect are calculated from DEM with 1720, 900, 450, 90 and 30 spatial resolutions ($m{\times}m$), respectively. The solar energy on the real surface with high-resolution is corrected using by the correction coefficients with topographic effect from the solar energy on horizontal surface with lower resolution. Consequently, the solar energy on the real surface is more detailed distribution than those of horizontal surface. In particular, the topographic effect in the winter is larger than summer because of larger solar zenith angle in winter. In Seoul metropolitan area, the monthly mean topographic effects are more than 200% in winter and within 40% in summer. And annual topographic effects are negative role with more than -60% and positive role with below 40%, respectively. As a result, topographic effect on real surface is not a negligible factor when calculating and analyzing solar energy using regional and global models.

MeV 영역의 속중성자분광을 위해 재래의 radiator system을 개량하여 ringshaped vertical radiator와 cone-shaped horizontal radiator를 공용한 특수한 recoil proton radiator assembly를 사용함으로서 energy 분해능의 저하없이 검출효율을 높이도록 recoil Proton telescope detector를 설계ㆍ제작하였다. 이 검출기에는 입사중성자속에 대한 Si(ti) 검출기의 직접노출을 피함으로서 background를 줄일수 있도록 입사중성자차폐부도 고안 내장되어 있다. 이 개량된 recoil proton telescope detector의 검출효율 및 energy 분해능을 중성자 energy 1-15 MeV에 대하여 radiator system과 Si(Li) 검출기사이의 거리변화에 따라 이론적인 계산치로 도출ㆍ표시하였으며, 실험적검증의 예로서 이 거리를 29cm로 하고 중성자 energy를 14.1 MeV로 하였을 때의 검출기의 제특성측정결과를 얻어 분석하였다. 측정결과의 분석에 의하면 이론에서 추정된것처럼 혼합형 radiator system을 사용하였을 때의 검출 효율은 단일 radiator system을 사용한 재래식 검출기의 검출효율의 2.2배의 증가를 보인데 반하여 energy 분해능의 저하는 불과 30%, background의 증가는 약40% 말만임을 알수가 있었다. 또한 측정에 의한 14.1 MeV 중성자에 대한 energy 분해능은 3.9% FWHM었는데, 이는 이논적인 3.7% FWHM와 거의 완전한 일치를 보이고 있음도 입증되였다.

A system coupled the prognostic WRF mesoscale model and CALMET diagnostic model has been employed for predicting high-resolution wind field over complex coastal area. WRF has three nested grids down to from during two days from 24 August 2007 to 26 August 2007. CALMET simulation is performed using both initial meteorological field from WRF coarsest results and surface boundary condition that is Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) 90m topography and Environmental Geographic Information System (EGIS) 30m landuse during same periods above. Four Automatic Weather System (AWS) and a Sonic Detection And Ranging (SODAR) are used to verify modeled wind fields. Horizontal wind fields in CM_100m is not only more complex but better simulated than WRF_1km results at Backwoon and Geumho in which there are shown stagnation, blocking effects and orographically driven winds. Being increased in horizontal grid spacing, CM_100m is well matched with vertically wind profile compared SODAR. This also mentions the importance of high-resolution surface boundary conditions when horizontal grid spacing is increased to produce detailed wind fields over complex terrain features.

We investigated experimentally the influence of the generation efficiency for excited Xe atoms on ultra-fine horizontal cell pitch AC PDPs. In the case of a 0.1 mm cell pitch, the sustain voltage increased; however, the generation efficiency was equal to or higher than for the conventional 0.22 mm cell pitch.

We have developed a 470 x 235ppi poly-Si TFT LCD with a novel pixel arrangement, called HDDP (Horizontally Double-Density Pixels), for high-resolution 2D and 3D autostereoscopic display. 3D image quality is especially high in a lenticular-lens-equipped 3D mode because both horizontal resolution and vertical resolution are high, and because these resolutions are equal. 3D and 2D images can be displayed simultaneously in the same picture. In addition, 3D images can be displayed anywhere and 2D characters can be made to appear at different depths with perfect legibility. No switching of 2D/3D modes is necessary, and the design's thin and uncomplicated structure makes it especially suitable for mobile terminals.

큰 에디 모의과정을 포함한 WRF 모델 (WRF-LES)을 이용하여 수치모델의 수평공간 규모에 따른 대기경계층 모수화 실험과 LES 모의 결과를 지표층 근처의 풍속 예측에 대하여 비교하였다. 수치실험은 복잡한 산악지형과 해안지역을 포함하는 강원도 지역에서 수평해상도 1 km와 333 m 실험을 수행하였다. 수평해상도 1 km 실험은 대기경계층 모수화 방안을 채택하였으며, 333 m 실험에서는 LES를 이용하였다. 복잡한 산악지역에서의 풍속 예측의 정확성은 수평해상도 1 km 실험 보다 333 m 실험에서 향상되었으며 해안지역에서는 1 km 실험에서 관측과 더 일치하였다. 지표층 근처의 큰 난류를 직접 계산하는 LES 실험은 산악지역의 풍속예측 개선에 기여하였다.

The aim of this study was to explore the spatial and energy resolutions of a PET scanner that we have recently developed. The scanner, which consists of six detector modules with 1-layer LGSO crystals, has a hexagonal configuration with a faceto- face distance of 86.4 mm between two opposite PET modules; such properties facilitate the imaging of small animals. A $^{22}Na$ point source was employed to estimate horizontal and vertical spatial resolutions. To assess the energy resolution, a uniform $^{18}F$ cylindrical phantom was scanned. A software-based spectrum analysis of list-mode data was used to assign a local energy window centered on the photopeak position for every single crystal. For the image reconstruction, an ML-EM algorithm was used. The spatial resolutions at the center of the scanner were 0.99 mm in the horizontal direction and 1.13 mm in the vertical direction. The energy resolution averaged over each PMT ranged from 13.3%-14.3%, which gave an average value of 13.8%. These results show that this simple system is promising for small animal imaging with excellent spatial and energy resolutions.

단일 채널 해양 탄성파탐사 자료의 2차원 탄성파 단면도에 수평거리 보정을 적용하여 탄성파 단면도의 수평축을 거리 단위로 표현하였다. 수평축을 거리 단위로 표시함으로써 탐사선의 운항 속력이 변할 경우 나타나는 수평 거리 왜곡 현상을 상당히 해소할 수 있었다. 수평거리 보정을 위하여 탄성파 자료의 각 트레이스에 저장된 GPS 위치 정보와 자료 취합 윈도우를 이용하였다. 자료 취합 윈도우의 최소 길이는 탐사선의 속력과 발파 간격에 의해 결정하였으며, 최대 길이는 1차 프레넬대 반경을 이용하여 결정하였다. 자료 취합 윈도우의 길이를 결정함에 있어 수평 해상도와 중합의 효과를 동시에 고려하였다. 수평거리 보정 과정을 적용하여 실제 지층구조와 유사하다고 생각되는 2차원 탄성파 단면도를 작성할 수 있었다.

The authors propose a novel dual mode liquid crystal display (LCD) which has both dynamic and memory operating LCD modes. The mode uses a horizontal switching and bistable chiral splay nematic (BCSN) LCD. The proposed dual mode does not require pixeldivision and has a higher aperture ratio and resolution than the previously proposed dual mode. Experimental results of the memory and dynamic mode show a high contrast ratio of over 100:1.
