  • Explicitly spatially distributed and reliable data on industrial water demand is very much important for both policy makers and researchers in order to carry a region-specific analysis of water resources management. However, such type of data remains scarce particularly in underdeveloped and developing countries. Current research is limited in using different spatially available socio-economic, climate data and geographical data from different sources in accordance to predict industrial water demand at finer resolution. This study proposes a random forest regression (RFR) model to predict the industrial water demand at 0.50× 0.50 spatial resolution by combining various features extracted from multiple data sources. The dataset used here include National Polar-orbiting Partnership (NPP)/Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) night-time light (NTL), Global Power Plant database, AQUASTAT country-wise industrial water use data, Elevation data, Gross Domestic Product (GDP), Road density, Crop land, Population, Precipitation, Temperature, and Aridity. Compared with traditional regression algorithms, RF shows the advantages of high prediction accuracy, not requiring assumptions of a prior probability distribution, and the capacity to analyses variable importance. The final RF model was fitted using the parameter settings of ntree = 300 and mtry = 2. As a result, determinate coefficients value of 0.547 is achieved. The variable importance of the independent variables e.g. night light data, elevation data, GDP and population data used in the training purpose of RF model plays the major role in predicting the industrial water demand.

  • 본 논문은 NDIR(Non Dispersive Infra Red) 방식을 적용하여 $CO_2$$CH_4$의 두 가지 가스를 하나의 휴대용 장치에서 측정이 가능하도록 제작된 복합 가스 측정 장치에 대한 연구이다. 측정 장치의 구성은 적외선램프에서 적외선이 방출되면 방출된 파장이 광학창을 거치면서 흡수로 인하여 빛이 줄어들게 되고 이 감소량(흡수도)을 검출기에서 검출하고 이를 전기적 신호로 변환 증폭하여(3.5V~6V) 정확한 측정이 가능함을 보여준다. 기존의 Single Sensor 방식은 적외선에서 특수파장을 흡수하여 상대 측정량을 검출하는 방식으로 가스의 경우 $4.26{\mu}m$파장의 빛만을 검출하여 측정하는 방식으로 센서의 값을 보정할 수 있는 기준센서가 없어 오차가 발생하는 문제가 발생하였다. 본 연구에 적용된 Dual Sensor 방식은 다른 가스의 영향을 받지 않는 $3.91{\mu}m$의 기준치와 가스의 $4.26{\mu}m$의 두 파장을 검출하여 비교측정 함으로써 오차가 적어 신뢰도가 높은 방식으로, 휴대형으로 소형화하여 저 전력화가 가능하며, $CO_2$$CH_4$의 2가지 가스농도를 복합적으로 측정 할 수 있다는 특징이 있다. 측정 범위는 $CO_2$의 경우 0ppm~5,000ppm이고 $CH_4$의 경우는 0~5%의 부피 농도로 실내 공기량 1,000ppm을 측정 할 수 있도록 제작되어 휴대용이나 주택의 Home automation과 연동하여 소화연동이 가능함으로 화재예방에 매우 효과적일 것으로 확인하였다.

  • Feedback from accreting BH (AGN) is thought to be responsible for the co-evolution of BHs and galaxies. It is likely to be prominent in the most luminous dust-obscured quasars, particularly those containing radio sources too luminous to be powered by starbursts. In order to investigate the feedback mechanism in detail, we select a unique sample containing ~ 200 of the most luminous obscured QSOs by cross-matching the WISE catalog with the FIRST and NVSS radio surveys. We present overall statistics for the observed range of colors and radio/mid-IR flux density ratio. We also present our efforts to understand the physical and evolutionary nature of these extreme feedback candidates using various telescopes such as Magellan, SOAR, Herschel, and ALMA.

  • Different phytochemicals obtained from various natural plant sources are used as reduction agents for preparing gold, copper, silver and platinum nanoparticles. In this work a green method of reducing graphene oxide (rGO) by an inexpensive, effective and scalable method using olive leaf aqueous extract as the reducing agent, was used to produce rGO. Both GO and rGO were prepared and investigated by ultraviolet and visible spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared, scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, cyclic voltammetry, X-ray photoelectron spectra, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and powder X-ray diffraction.

  • Forefront ultrafast experimental techniques have recently proven their potential as new approaches to understand materials based on non-equilibrium dynamics in the time domain. The time domain approach is useful especially in disentangling complicated coupling among charge, spin and lattice degrees of freedom. Various ultrafast experiments on Fe-based superconductors have observed strong coherent oscillations of an $A_{1g}$ phonon mode of arsenic ions, which shows strong coupling to the electronic and magnetic states. This paper reviews the recent reports of ultrafast studies on Fe-based superconductor with a focus on the coherent oscillations. Experimental results with ultrashort light sources from the terahertz-infrared pulses to the hard X-rays from a free electron laser will be presented.

  • Novel photochromic oxide glasses are presented in this section. These glasses are based on phosphate formers containing both tungsten and antimony atoms. Exposure to visible continuous or pulsed laser beam results in an intense photochromic effect witch is shown to occur in the volume of the glass and results in a broad absorption band in the visible and near infrared. This effect was not identified to be related with a structural change and is assumed to be entirely electronic. A change in the absorption coefficient is observed in function of tungsten content, exposure time and increases with beam power. These glasses have been investigated regarding the possibility of holographic data storage using visible lasers sources. Changes in both refractive index and the absorption coefficient were measured using a holographic setup. The modulation of the optical constants is reversible by heat treatment.

  • 다중 표적 추적(MTT:Multiple Target Tracking)은 한 개 또는 그 이상의 센서들을 사용하는 감시(sureillance) 시스템을 위해서 컴퓨터와 마찬가지로 주변상황을 해석하는데 없어서는 안되는 중 요한 요소이다. 레이다, IR(Infrared) 및 Sonar등과 같은 전형적인 센서 시스템들은 여러 가지 신호원 (sources): 문제의 표적, 레이다 지면 클러터(clutter)같은 후면잡음 또는 열잡음같은 내부 오차 요인 으로부터 측정치(measurement)를 만들어 준다. 다중표적용 추적방식의 목적은 센서가 제공하는 측 정 데이터들을 동일한 신호원으로부터 나온 여러 세트의 관측치(observations) 또는 트랙(track)으로 구분해내는 것이다. 이와 같이 일단 트랙이 구성되고 확정되면 후면잡음이나 허위표적을 제거할 수 있 도록 표적의 수를 추산하고 표적의 속도나 예상위치 및 표적의 종류와 기타특성을 계산해낼 수 있다.

  • It is obvious that there are plentiful of dust particles in the interplanetary spaces of the Solar System (IDPs), based on micrometeor craters, zodiacal light and direct measurements on the spacecraft. Because of photon drag and planetary perturbations, these particles are continuously falling to the Sun or planets, therefore continuous source of the IDPs are required. We studied the fractional contribution of each type of solar system objects to the IDPs complex through the optical properties of the potential dust sources and the zodiacal light. We found that more than 90% of the IDPs are originated from cometary nuclei. This result is discussed through the comparison with the dynamic simulation, micrometeors mineralogy and near-infrared spectrum of the zodiacal light. In addition, we introduce our new project on the numerical simulation for the dust particles ejected from the cometary nuclei, to verify the conclusion of dominant cometary contribution and its detailed consequences.

  • Amorphous ternary $Si_xC_yN-z$ thin films were obtained by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition(PECVD) using $N_2, SiH_4 \;and \;C_2H_4$ as the reaction sources. The chemical state were characterized by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR). The optical properties of the thin films were investigated by UV-visible spectrophotometer and ellipsometer, and the optical band gaps of thin films were determined from corresponding transmittance spectra following Tauc equation.
