The Molten Salt Fast Reactor (MSFR) with its liquid circulating fuel and its fast neutron spectrum calls for a new safety approach including technological neutral methodologies and analysis tools adapted to early design phases. In the frame of the Horizon2020 program SAMOFAR (Safety Assessment of the Molten Salt Fast Reactor) a safety approach suitable for Molten Salt Reactors is being developed and applied to the MSFR. After a description of the MSFR reference design, this paper focuses on the identification of the Postulated Initiating Events (PIEs), which is a core part of the global assessment methodology. To fulfil this task, the Functional Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FFMEA) and the Master Logic Diagram (MLD) are selected and employed separately in order to be as exhaustive as possible in the identification of the initiating events of the system. Finally, an extract of the list of PIEs, selected as the most representative events resulting from the implementation of both methods, is presented to illustrate the methodology and some of the outcomes of the methods are compared in order to highlight symbioses and differences between the MLD and the FFMEA.

Green fluorescent protein (GFPuv) was displayed on the surface of ethanol-producing bacteria Zymomonas mobilis using N-terminal domain of ice nucleation protein (INP) as an anchoring motif. To evaluate the ice nucleation protein as plausible anchor motif in Z. mobilis, GFPuv gene was subcloned into Zymomonas expression vector yielding pBBR1MCS-3/pPDC/INPN/GFPuv plasmid., INP-GFPuv fusion protein was expressed in Z. mobilis and its fluorescence was verified by confocal microscopy. The successful display of GFPuv on Zymomonas mobilis suggest that INP anchor motif could be used for future fusion partner in Z. mobilis strain improvement.

본 연구는 산란계 사료 내 항균성장촉진제로써 돼지감자(Helianthus tuberosus L.)로부터 추출, 제조한 이눌로프리바이오틱스(Inuloprebiotics, INP)의 고수준 첨가가 산란능력 및 계란품질에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위해 실시하였다. 29주령의 갈색산란계(Hyline brown) 320마리를 이용하여 처리구당 80마리씩 개체별, 반복구로 나누어서 완전임의 배치한 후 10주 동안 실험사료를 급여하였다. 실험처리구는 T1 (무첨가 대조군), T2 (INP 450 ppm 첨가군), T3 (INP 600 ppm 첨가군) 및 T4 (INP 750 ppm 첨가군)로 구분하였다. 산란율, 난중, 사료섭취량 및 계란의 호우유니트, 난각두께, 파란강도는 T1과 비교할 때 T2, T3, T4가 유의하게 높았으나(p<0.05) T2, T3, T4 사이의 통계적인 유의차는 인정되지 않았다. 계란의 콜레스테롤은 T1이 가장 높았고 T4, T3, T2 순서로 이눌로프리바이오틱스 첨가구에서 15.04-17.98%까지 유의하게 감소하였다(p<0.05). 계란 포화지방산 조성은 T2, T3, T4가 T1에 비해서 낮았으나 불포화지방산은 그 반대로 유의하게 높았다(p<0.05). 혈액 중성지방 및 총콜레스테롤은 T1과 비교할 때 T2, T3, T4에서 21.71-24.07% 및 27.17-30.36%로 유의하게 감소하였다(p<0.05). 맹장의 유익한 미생물, Bifidobacterium, Lactobacillus의 성장은 T2, T3, T4가 T1과 비교할 때 자극되었으나 유해한 Escherichia, Salmonella의 성장은 뚜렷하게 억제되었다(p<0.05). 본 연구결과는 이눌로프리바이오틱스 450 ppm을 산란계 사료 내 첨가해주면 산란성적 및 계란품질을 향상시킬 수 있음을 시사해준다.

The mechanical characterization of composite materials is nowadays a major interest due to their increasing use in the aeronautic industry. The design of most of these materials is based on their stiffness, which is mainly obtained by means of tensile tests with strain gauge measurement. For thin laminated composites, this classical method requires adequate samples with specific orientation and does not provide all the independent elastic constants. Regarding ultrasonic characterization, especially immersion technique, only one specimen is needed and the entire determination of the stiffness tensor is possible. This paper presents a study of different methods to determine the mechanical properties of transversely isotropic carbon fibre composite materials (gauge and correlation strain measurement during tensile tests, ultrasonic immersion technique). Results are compared to ISO standards and manufacturer data to evaluate the accuracy of these techniques.

Although the actual visual simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) algorithms provide highly accurate tracking and mapping, most algorithms are too heavy to run live on embedded devices. In addition, the maps they produce are often unsuitable for path planning. To mitigate these issues, we propose a completely closed-loop online dense RGB-D SLAM algorithm targeting autonomous indoor mobile robot navigation tasks. The proposed algorithm runs live on an NVIDIA Jetson board embedded on a two-wheel differential-drive robot. It exhibits lightweight three-dimensional mapping, room-scale consistency, accurate pose tracking, and robustness to moving objects. Further, we introduce a navigation strategy based on the proposed algorithm. Experimental results demonstrate the robustness of the proposed SLAM algorithm, its computational efficiency, and its benefits for on-the-fly navigation while mapping.

Purpose - People have long thought that disorderly space would influence their lives negatively. However, disorderly space may have positive impact such as increasing sales for new products for store managers. Borrowing the prior findings that disorderly space enhances creativity, we developed two hypotheses regarding space order, product newness, and new product adoption. We hypothesize that space order negatively influences new product adoption and that the proposed negative effect of space order on new product adoption is moderated by product newness. Research design, data, and methodology - We conducted a pre-test in China using 70 undergraduate students to test whether two newly developed cosmetic products were appropriate for the experimental stimuli. We confirmed that a fragrance patch concept, which is unavailable in the market, is a RNP (Really New Product), and an edible fragrance, which is available in the market, is an INP (Incrementally New Product). Next, we conducted a main experiment with a 2 (Space order: orderly vs. disorderly) × 2 (Product newness: RNP vs. INP) between-subjects design in China using 100 undergraduate students. Half of the participants answered questions on the disorderly desk and the other half answered questions on the orderly desk. Results - We obtained evidence from the main experiment that consumers' new product adoption is the function of space order and product newness. First, participants were more likely to adopt the RNP when they were in the disorderly space than in the orderly space. However, the effect of space order on new product adoption disappeared when the product was INP; the adoption rates for the INP did not differ between the participants who answered questions on the disorderly desk and the participants who did so on the orderly desk. Conclusions - Our findings are counter intuitive. Contrary to the conventional wisdom that neat and tidy space benefits store managers, the research demonstrated that disorderly space increases sales, providing fresh insights into store managers to manage their stores and shops to sell new products. In order to help store visitors understand the value of really new products, store managers will have to sacrifice space order to some extent.

미주나 구주항로의 서비스를 이용하는 수도권 화주 90%가 부산항을 이용하고 있다. 하지만 인천 신항의 항로수심이 -16m 이상으로 증심이 이루어진다면, 수도권 화주들의 항만선택행동에 큰 변화가 있을 것으로 예상된다. 이러한 측면에서 본 연구에서는 Logit모형을 이용하여 환경변화를 고려한 인천 신항의 수도권 화물의 분담률을 추정하는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 본 연구에서는 화주의 항만선택행동과 관련된 선행연구 고찰을 통해 정기선항로 항차 수(미주노선), 내륙운송운임, 컨테이너터미널 서비스 수준을 독립변수로 선정하고, 부산신항과 인천 신항을 더미화하여 종속변수로 활용한 효용함수를 구성하였다. 인천 신항과 부산신항이 갖는 총 효용치를 통해 현 수준에서 두 항만의 분담률을 분석한 결과, 기본 시나리오에서는 부산신항이 0.6618, 인천 신항이 0.3382라는 결과를 획득하였다.

Ozone is a powerful disinfectant and oxidizing agent, and it is used in a wide range of applications, such as waste water treatment, food processing, etc.. There is also a great potential of using ozone in new emerging medical applications, such as ozone dentistry and ozone oxygen therapy. For these purposes, simple, small, compact and efficient sources of ozone are needed. In this study, in order to increase the current-voltage range of the discharge and to avoid the overheating of the gas in the ozonizer we suggested ozonizer of injection needle and plate electrode type(INP Type) with the gas through the needle. A ozonizer of INP type have been investigated by focusing on ozone concentration and yield according to flow rates and Gap of two electrodes. The results of studies of ozone production for DC corona discharge in oxygen at atmospheric pressure about the ozonizer of INP type. The ozone concentration and the generation yield increased as the gap of two electrodes and gas flow were decreased. Also, when the gap of two electrodes and gas flow with no change, the ozone concentration and generation yield each have variation of direct proportion and inverse proportion with discharge voltage.
