Wind information is one of the major inputs for the prediction of urban air flow using computational fluid dynamic (CFD) models. Therefore, the numerical characteristics of the wind data formed at their mother domains should be clarified to predict the urban air flow more precisely. In this study, the formation characteristics of the wind data in the Seoul region were used as the inlet wind information for a CFD based simulation and were analyzed using numerical weather prediction models for weather research and forecasting (WRF). Because air flow over the central part of the Korean peninsula is often controlled not only by synoptic scale westerly winds but also by the westerly sea breeze induced from the Yellow Sea, the westerly wind often dominates the entire Seoul region. Although simulations of wind speed and air temperature gave results that were slightly high and low, respectively, their temporal variation patterns agreed well with the observations. In the analysis of the vertical cross section, the variation of wind speed along the western boundary of Seoul is simpler in a large domain with the highest horizontal resolution as compared to a small domain with the same resolution. A strong convergence of the sea breeze due to precise topography leads to the simplification of the wind pattern. The same tendency was shown in the average vertical profiles of the wind speed. The difference in the simulated wind pattern of two different domains is greater during the night than in the daytime because of atmospheric stability and topographically induced mesoscale forcing.

Torque control method and turn of nut method are specified as clamping method of high strength bolts in the steel construction specifications. Quality control of torque coefficient is essential activity because torque control method, which is presently adopted as clamping method in domestic construction sites, is affected by variation of torque coefficient. The clamping of torque shear bolt is based on KS B 2819. It was misunderstood that the tension force of the TS bolt was induced generally at the break of pin-tail specified. However, the clamping forces on slip critical connections do not often meet the intended tension, as it considerably varies due to torque coefficient dependent on the environmental factors and temperature variables despite the break of the pin tail.This study was focused to evaluate the effect of environmental factors and errors of installing bolts during tightening high strength bolts. The environmental parameters were composed of 'wet' condition, 'rust' condition, 'only exposure to air' condition. And the manufacture of trial product was planned to identify the induced force into the bolts. The algorithm for a trial product was composed of the relation between electricity energy taken from torque shear wrench and tension force from hydraulic tension meter.

우리나라에서 흔히 볼 수 있는 화강풍화토 사면에서 강우침투로 인한 사면파괴는 통상 지하수위 위쪽의 얕은 깊이에서 발생한다. 지하수위 위쪽 지반의 간극수압은 대기압에 대하여 음의 값을 갖는다. 이러한 모관흡수력의 존재와 크기는 사면의 안정성에 크게 기여하는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 따라서, 계절적 강우에 의한 풍화토 사면의 얕은 파괴기구(failure mechanism)를 규명하기 위해서는 비포화대에서의 모관흡수력 분포를 예측하는 것이 필수적이다. 이 연구에서는 2001년 6월부터 8월까지 화강풍화토 사면에서 모관흡수력 및 체적함수비를 현장 모니터링 하였으며, 대상지반에 대한 투수해석을 수행하였다. 현장 모니터링 결과, 기후조건의 영향력은 깊이에 따라 감소하는 경향을 보였으며 강우침투에 의한 지반내 모관흡수력의 감소는 강우량 및 강우지속시간 뿐만 아니라 강우직전의 모관흡수력 분포에도 큰 영향을 받고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 모니터링된 모관흡수력과 체적함수비를 이용하여 현장 흙-수분특성을 얻을 수 있었는데 습윤경로(wetting path)에 가까운 분포를 보였다.

In order to clarify the characteristics of PM10 in coastal and inland cities and their variation statistical analysis were carried out using environmental and meteorological data observed at Busan and Daegu metropolitans during 4 year from 2010. Averaged PM10 concentration was higher in industrial area than any other land-use sites, and its maximum value reach on over $50{\mu}g/m^3$ at Jangrim site in Busan. Temporal and spatial variations of PM10 concentration in Busan were more sharply, since topograph and mesoscale wind pattern in Busan is more complicated than those in Daegu. Correlation of PM10 concentrations between sites within Daegu appeared strongly and maximum values $R^2$ is about 0.8. This indicate that because wind pattern induced by mesoscale forcing in Daegu are well unified, the variation of PM10 concentration tends to be similar in all sites within Daegu. However, due to complicate wind pattern induced by topography and coastal line, PM10 correlation of sites within Busan was weaker in comparison with in Daegu. And correlation of PM10 at same lane-use in Busan and Daegu tend to be related to the intensity of meteorological forcing, which can decide the intensity of wind pattern.

Transcranial magnetic stimulation devices has been used mainly for diagnostic purposes by measuring the functions of the nervous system rather than for treatment purposes, and has a problem of considerable energy fluctuations per repeated pulse. The majority of strokes are caused by ischemia and result in brain tissue damage, leading to problems of the central nervous system including hemiparesis, dysfunction of language and consciousness, and dysfunction of perception. Control is difficult and the size is large due to the difficulty of digitalizing the energy stored in a capacitor, and there are many heavy devices. In addition, there are many constraints when it is used for a range of purposes such as head and neck diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of nerve palsy, muscle strengthening, treatment of urinary incontinence etc. Output stabilization and minimization of the energy variation rate are required as the level of the transcranial magnetic stimulation device is dramatically improved and the demand for therapeutic purposes increases. This study developed a compact, low cost transcranial magnetic stimulation device with minimal energy variation of a high repeated pulse and output stabilization using a real time capacitor charge discharge voltage. Ischemia was induced in male SD rats by closing off the common carotid artery for 5 minutes, after which the blood was re-perfused. In the cerebrum, the number of PARP reactive cells after 24 hours significantly decreased (p < 0.05) in the TMS group compared to the GI group. As a result, TMS showed the greatest effect on necrosis-related PARP immuno-reactive cells 24 hours after ischemia, indicating necrosis inhibition, blocking of neural cell death, and protection of neural cells.

Purpose : To investigate the caspase-3 expression in the acinar and ductal cells of rat submandibular glands after the irradiation of various doses. Materials and Methods : The male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing approximately 250 gm were used for this study. The experimental group was irradiated with a single absorbed dose of 2, 5, 10, and 15 Gy on the head and neck region. The rats were sacrificed on the 1st, 3rd, 7th, 14th, 21 st, and 28th day after irradiation. The specimens including the submandibular gland were sectioned and observed using histopathological and immunohistochemical methods. Results : The local destruction of the acinar and ductal cells and the karyopyknotic nuclei of the acinar cells were observed in the 2 Gy and 5 Gy irradiation groups later than in the 10 Gy and 15 Gy irradiation groups. And the expression of caspase-3 was prominent only in the ductal cells in the 2 Gy and 5 Gy irradiation groups. Conclusion : This experiment suggests that radiation-induced apoptosis in the ductal cells of rat submandibular glands was induced by a low dose radiation associated with the activation of caspase-3 and radiation-induced necrosis was induced by a high dose radiation.

Recently, severe wear on the shutdown rod cladding of Ulchin Nuclear Power Plant #1, #2 were observed by the Eddy Current Test(E.C.T.). In particular, the wear at the sixth card location was up to 75%. The test results indicated that the Flow Induced Vibration(F.I.V.) might be the cause of the fretting wear resulting from the contact between Rod Cluster Control Assemblies(RCCAs) and their spacing cards(guide plates) arranged in the guide tube. From reviewing RCCAs fretting wear repots and analyzing the general characteristics of F.I.V. mechanism in the reactor, geometric layout and flow conditions around the control rod, it is concluded that the turbulence excitation is the most probable vibration mechanism of RCCA. To identify the governing mechanism of RCCA vibration, an experiment was performed for a representative rod position in which the most serious fretting wear experienced among the six rod positions. The experimental rig was designed and set up to satisfy the governing nondimensional numbers which are Reynolds number and mass damping parameter. The vibration amplitude measurement by the non-contact laser displacement sensor showed good agreements in the frequency and the maximum wearing(vibration) location with Ulchin E.C.T. results and Framatome report, respectively. The sudden increase in the vibration amplitude was sensed around the 6th guide plate with mass flow rate variation. Comparing the similitude rod behaviour with the idealized response of a cylinder in flow induced vibration, it was found that he dominant mechanism of vibration was transferred from turbulence excitation to periodic shedding at the mass flow ate 90ι/min. Also the critical velocity of the vibration in RCCAs was determined and the vibration can be prevented by reducing the bypass flow rate below the critical velocity.

Infection of fish cells with IHNV resulted in gradual increase in cytosolic free $Ca^{2+}$ concentration $([Ca^{2+}]_i)$ in CHSE, gradual decrease in $[Ca^{2+}]_i$ in FHM, and no significant change in RTG cells. The degree of $[Ca^{2+}]_i$ increase or decrease was dependent on the amount of infectious virus, and these $[Ca^{2+}]_i$ variations were maximal at 16 hours after virus infection (p. i.) in both cell lines. When the fish cells were infected with inactivated IHNV, evident variation in $[Ca^{2+}]_i$ was not observed. Thus, infectivity of IHNV appears to correlate with changes in $[Ca^{2+}]_i$ in virus-infected cells. These IHNV-induced $[Ca^{2+}]_i$ changes were partially blocked by cycloheximide, but not affected by cordycepin. It seems to be that virus-induced $Ca^{2+}$ variations were more related with protein synthesis than RNA synthesis. Various $Ca^{2+}$ related drugs were used in search for the mechanisms of the $[Ca^{2+}]_i$, changes following IHNV infection of CHSE cells. Decreasing extracellular $Ca^{2+}$ concentration or blocking $Ca^{2+}$ influx from extracellular media inhibited the IHNV-induced increase in $[Ca^{2+}]_i$, in CHSE cells. Similar results were obtained with intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ blockers. Thus it is suggested that both the extracellular and the intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ sources are important in IHNV-induced $[Ca^{2+}]_i$ increase in CHSE cells.

하계 진동만에서 얻어진 영양염 DIN(dissolved inorganic nitrogen) 및 DIP(dissolved inorganic phosphate)의 분포는 이들 농도가 만안쪽에서 매우 높은 것이 특징이다. 또 표층(0∼1 m)과 저층(8 m∼bottom)은 만 안쪽이 고농도 이고 중층(1∼8 m)은 상대적으로 낮다. 이러한 영양염의 분포특성을 바람, 조류, 밀도의 수평경도력 및 잔차류를 고려한 생태계모델을 이용하여 조사하였다. 수치실험은 이들 조건들이 영양염에 각기 어떻게 영향을 미치는 가에 주목하여 실시되었다 조석잔차류를 고려한 경우는 전반적으로 관측값보다 저농도의 분포를 보였고, 바람, 조석잔차류 및 밀도의 수평경도력에 의한 효과를 포함한 경우는 보다 관측값에 근접한 결과를 얻었다 이러한 결과는 통계적 분석 방법에서도 잘 뒤받침된다. 본 연구결과는 하계 진동만에서 영양염의 분포변동에 조류효과 뿐만이 아니라 바람에 의한 취송류 및 밀도의 수평경도력에 의해 발생하는 밀도류의 효과가 매우 중요함을 시사한다.
