The harmonic components of grid voltage result in oscillations of the calculated phase obtained via phase synchronization. This affects the security and stability of grid-connected converters. Moving average filter, delayed signal cancellation and their related harmonic elimination algorithms are major methods for such issues. However, all of the existing methods have their limitations in dealing with multiple harmonics issues. Furthermore, few studies have focused on a comparison and evaluation of these algorithms to achieve optimal algorithm selections in specific applications. In this paper, these algorithms are quantitatively analyzed based on the derived mathematical models. Moreover, an enhanced moving average filter and enhanced delayed signal cancellation algorithms, which are applicable for eliminating a group of selective harmonics with only one calculation block, are proposed. On this basis, both a comprehensive comparison and a quantitative evaluation of all of the aforementioned algorithms are made from several aspects, including response speed, required data storage size, sensitivity to sampling frequency, and elimination of random noise and harmonics. With the conclusions derived in this paper, better overall performance in terms of harmonic elimination can be achieved. In addition, experimental results under different conditions demonstrate the validity of this study.

LED arrays with pixel numbers of $3{\times}3$, $4{\times}4$, and $5{\times}5$ have been studied in this paper in order to enhance the optical output power and decrease heat dissipation of an AlGaInP-based light emitting diode display device (pixel size of $280{\times}280{\mu}m$) fabricated by micro-opto-electro-mechanical systems. Simulation results showed that the thermal resistances of the $3{\times}3$, $4{\times}4$, $5{\times}5$ arrays were $52^{\circ}C/W$, $69.7^{\circ}C/W$, and $84.3^{\circ}C/W$. The junction temperature was calculated by the peak wavelength shift method, which showed that the maximum value appears at the center pixel due to thermal crosstalk from neighboring pixels. The central temperature would be minimized with $40{\mu}m$ pixel pitch and $150{\mu}m$ substrate thickness as calculated by thermal modeling using finite element analysis. The modeling can be used to optimize parameters of highly integrated AlGaInP-based LED arrays fabricated by micro-opto-electro-mechanical systems technology.

W-K-TiC alloys with different titanium carbide concentrations (0.05, 0.1, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2) wt.% were fabricated through Mechanical Alloying and Spark Plasma Sintering. The effects of the addition of nano-scaled TiC particles on the relative density, Vickers micro-hardness, microstructure, crystal information, thermal shock resistance, and tensile strength were investigated. It is revealed that the doped TiC nano-particles located at the grain boundaries. The relative density and Vickers micro-hardness of W-K-TiC alloys was enhanced with TiC addition and the highest Vickers micro-hardness is 731.55. As the TiC addition increased from 0.05 to 2 wt%, the room-temperature tensile strength raised from 141 to 353 MPa. The grain size of the W-K-TiC alloys decreased sharply from $2.56{\mu}m$ to 330 nm with the enhanced TiC doping. The resistance to thermal shock damage of W-K-TiC alloys was improved slightly with the increased TiC addition.

키워드 검색 가능한 공개키 암호 (PEKS)은 검색어에 대한 프라이버시를 제공하기 위해서 Boneh et. al.에 의해서 처음으로 제안되었다. 검색 가능한 공개키 암호 (PEKS) 기술은 송신자가 수신자의 공개키로 암호화된 메일 메시지를 이메일 서버에 보내고 서버는 암호문과 송신자에 의해서 생성된 암호화된 쿼리를 이용하여 암호화된 메일 메시지와 암호화된 검색어와의 관련성을 얻는 것이 가능하도록 한다. 이러한 메일 시스템에서는 그룹메일과 같이 하나의 암호화된 메일을 다수의 수신자에게 전송하는 경우를 생각할 수 있다. Hwang과 Lee는 이러한 점을 고려하여 다중 수신자환경에서 FEKS 스킴을 제안하였다. 이러한 다수의 수신자의 환경에서는 전송되는 데이터의 사이즈와 서버의 계산량을 줄이는 것이 중요한 이슈이다. 본 논문에서는 서버측의 페어링(Pairing) 계산량을 줄인 좀더 효율적인 다수의 수신자를 고려한 mPEKS 스킴을 제안한다.

Pool boiling heat transfer is widely applied in nuclear engineering fields. The influence of heating surface orientation on the pool boiling heat transfer has received extensive attention. In this study, the heating surface with different roughness was adopted to conduct pool boiling experiments at different inclination angles. Based on the boiling curves and bubble images, the effects of inclination angle on the pool boiling heat transfer and critical heat flux were analyzed. When the inclination angle was bigger than 90°, the bubble size increased with the increase of inclination angle. Both the bubble departure frequency and critical heat flux decreased as the inclination angle increased. The existing theoretical models about pool boiling heat transfer and critical heat flux were compared. From the perspective of bubble agitation model and Hot/Dry spot model, the experimental phenomena could be explained reasonably. The enlargement of bubble not only could enhance the agitation of nearby liquid but also would cause the bubble to stay longer on the heating surface. Consequently, the effect of inclination angle on the pool boiling heat transfer was not conspicuous. With the increase of inclination angle, the rewetting of heating surface became much more difficult. It has negative effect on the critical heat flux. This work provides experimental data basis for heat transfer and CHF performance of pool boiling.

The genus Babesia includes parasites that can induce human and animal babesiosis, which are common in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. The gut microbiota has not been examined in hamsters infected by Babesia duncani. Red blood cells infected with B. duncani were injected into hamsters through intraperitoneal route. To evaluate the changes in gut microbiota, DNAs were extracted from small intestinal contents, acquired from hamsters during disease development. Then, the V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene of bacteria was sequenced using the Illumina sequencing platform. Gut microbiota alternation and composition were assessed according to the sequencing data, which were clustered with >97.0% sequence similarity to create amplicon sequence variants (ASVs). Bacteroidetes and Firmicutes were made up of the major components of the gut microbiota in all samples. The abundance of Bacteroidetes elevated after B. duncani infection than the B. duncani-free group, while Firmicutes and Desulfobacterota declined. Alpha diversity analysis demonstrated that the shown ASVs were substantially decreased in the highest parasitemia group than B. duncani-free and lower parasitemia groups. Potential biomarkers were discovered by Linear discriminant analysis Effect Size (LEfSe) analysis, which demonstrated that several bacterial families (including Muribaculaceae, Desulfovibrionaceae, Oscillospiraceae, Helicobacteraceae, Clostridia UGG014, Desulfovibrionaceae, and Lachnospiraceae) were potential biomarkers in B. duncani-infected hamsters. This research demonstrated that B. duncani infectious can modify the gut microbiota of hamsters.

본 논문에서는 집단 주거지역이 있는 도시지역을 대상으로 방범에 관한 위험도 확률지도 제작 기법을 제안한 것이다. 과거 발생했던 방범 사례를 분석하여 해당지역의 지형, 시설물, 속성 정보 등 도시 공간정보를 구성하는 객체를 바탕으로 육안으로 판별할 수 있는 특징을 판독키 (interpretation key)로 정하였다. 이 판독키를 작성하여 다른 지역에 동일하게 적용하여 방범 및 방재 위험도 확률지도를 생성하는 기법을 제안하였다. 이때 도시공간정보 객체 판독키는 방범 유형에 따라 달라지는 크기의 셀(cell)로 나누고 그 셀에 해당하는 위험지수를 설정하게 된다. 이 때 만들어진 여러 계층의 위험도 확률 지도를 통합하여 종합 위험도 확률 지도를 생성하였다.

Objective: To evaluate the interobserver agreement, diagnostic value, and associated clinical factors of automated breast ultrasound (ABUS) coronal features in differentiating breast lesions. Materials and Methods: This study enrolled 457 pathologically confirmed lesions in 387 female (age, 46.4 ± 10.3 years), including 377 masses and 80 non-mass lesions (NMLs). The unique coronal features, including retraction phenomenon, hyper- or hypoechoic rim (continuous or discontinuous), skipping sign, and white wall sign, were defined and recorded. The interobserver agreement on image type and coronal features was evaluated. Furthermore, clinical factors, including the lesion size, distance to the nipple or skin, palpability, and the histological grade were analyzed. Results: Among the 457 lesions, 296 were malignant and 161 were benign. The overall interobserver agreement for image type and all coronal features was moderate to good. For masses, the retraction phenomenon was significantly associated with malignancies (p < 0.001) and more frequently presented in small and superficial invasive carcinomas with a low histological grade (p = 0.027, 0.002, and < 0.001, respectively). Furthermore, continuous hyper- or hypoechoic rims were predictive of benign masses (p < 0.001), whereas discontinuous rims were predictive of malignancies (p < 0.001). A hyperechoic rim was more commonly detected in masses more distant from the nipple (p = 0.027), and a hypoechoic rim was more frequently found in large superficial masses (p < 0.001 for both). For NMLs, the skipping sign was a predictor of malignancies (p = 0.040). Conclusion: The coronal plane of ABUS may provide useful diagnostic value for breast lesions.

낸드 플래시 기반 SSD(Solid State Drive)는 빠른 입출력 성능, 저전력 등의 장점을 가지고 있어, 타블릿, 데스크탑 PC, 스마트폰, 서버 등의 저장장치로 널리 사용되고 있다. 하지만 SSD는 쓰기 횟수에 따라서 마모도가 증가하는 단점이 있다. SSD의 수명을 향상시키기 위해 다양한 데이터 중복제거 기법이 도입되었으나, 일반적인 고정 크기 분할방식은 데이터의 지역성을 고려하지 않고 청크크기를 할당함으로써, 불필요한 청킹 및 해시값 생성을 수행하는 문제점이 있으며, 가변 크기 분할방식은 중복제거를 위해 바이트 단위로 비교하여 과도한 연산량을 유발한다. 본 논문에서는 SSD 기반 서버급 스토리지에서 쓰기 요청된 데이터의 지역성에 기반한 적응형 청킹 정책을 제안한다. 제안한 방법은 중복데이터가 가지는 응용프로그램 및 파일 이름 기반 지역성에 따라 청크 크기를 4KB 또는 64KB로 적응적으로 분할하여, 청킹 및 해시값 생성에 따른 오버헤드를 감소시키고, 중복 쓰기를 방지한다. 실험결과, 제안하는 기법이 기존의 가변 크기 분할 및 4KB의 고정 크기 분할을 이용한 중복제거기법보다 SSD의 쓰기 성능이 향상되고 전력 소모 및 연산시간을 감소시킬 수 있음을 보여준다.
