  • ABA-type block copolymers composed of poly(L-leucine)(PLL) as the A component and poly(ethylene glycol)(PEG) as the B component were synthesized by ring-opening polymerization of L-leucine N-carboxyanhydride initiated by primary amino group located at both ends of PEG chain. A silver sulfadiazine(AgSD)-impregnated wound dressing of sponge-type was prepared by the lyophilization method. Morphological structure of this wound dressing obtained by scanning electron microscopy(SEM) was composed of a dense skin layer and a macroporous inner sponge layer. Equilibrium water content(EWC) of wound dressing was above 10%. It increased with an increased of PEO content in the block copolymer due to the hydrophilicity of PEO. AgSD release from AgSD- impregnated wound dressing in PBS buffer(pH=7.4) was dependent on PEG composition in the block copolymer. Therefore, EWC and release of AgSD can be control by PEG composition. Antibacterial capacity of AgSD-impregnated wound dressing was examined in agar plate against Pseudmonas aeruginosa and Stapplococus aruous. Cytotoxicity of the wound dressing was evaluated by studing mouse skin fibroblast(L929). From the behavior of antimicrobial releasing and the investigation of the suppression of bacterial proliferation, it was supposed that the wound dressing containing antibiotics could protect the wound surfaces from bacterial invasion to suppress the bacterial proliferation effectively. In cytotoxicity observation, cellular damage was reduced by the control led released of AgSD from the LEL sponge matrix of AgSD-medicated wound dressing. In vivo test, granulous tissue formation and wound contraction or the AgSD and DHEA impregnated wound dressing were aster than any other groups.

  • This study was carried out to investigate the effects of pycnogenol (PYC) on the cutaneous wound healing of the mice. The wounds were extracted on days 1, 3, 5, and 7 post-injury for histomorphometrical analysis including wound area, infiltrating inflammatory cells, wound contracture including collagen deposition. As the result, the wound area of PYC-treated group was larger than the control group on days 1 to 7. Inflammatory cells in the PYC-treated wounds were decreased at day 1 compared to the control wound tissue. From day 3 to 7, there was no significant difference between the control and the PYC-treated skin wounds. Though the degree of contraction in the PYC-treated group was lower than that of the control group from days 1 to 5, but appeared significantly higher on day 7. Compared to the control group, collagen accumulation in the PYC-treated group was higher than that of the control group from days 5 to 7. From this result, it may support the possibility that PYC would be useful agent for early inflammatory response and matrix remodeling phase of the skin wounds.

  • 암반내 불연속면이나 지반-구조물의 접촉면은 열-수리-역학적으로 연계된 거동 특성을 보이므로, 온전한 지배방정식에 근거한 경계면 요소의 개발이 필요하다. 본 논문은 경계면 요소에 대한 힘평형 방정식, 유체의 연속방정식 그리고 에너지 평형 방정식을 유도하였다. 그리고 경계면 요소에 대한 탄소성 역학 모델의 강성행렬을 제시하였다. 개발된 유한요소는 2차원 조건에서 변위는 6절점, 수압과 온도는 4절점을 사용한다. 단층내 유체 주입에 대한 완전연계된 THM 해석은 단층내의 유효응력 감소와 주위 암반의 온도 수축에 의한 주입압의 복합적인 변화을 모델링 할수 있었다. 하지만, 열적 현상을 무시한 HM해석은 수리-역학적 변수를 과다하게 산정하였다.

  • 연구배경 : 알레르기성 천식에서 기관지 재모형의 기전이 세포외 기질 침착에 의한다는 것은 잘 알려져 있다. MMP족중 특히 MMP-9은 천식의 기관지 재모형을 유발하는 주요 단백분해 효소이다. 또한, MMP-9은 기저막을 통한 호산구와 중성구의 이동을 유발한다고 알려져 있다. 최근에는 MMP가 천식의 쥐 모형에서 기도 과민성의 유발과 oval bumin 유발성 기도 염증 세포의 침윤에 있어서 중요한 역할을 한다고 보고되어졌다. 그러나, TDI 유발성 천식에 있어서 MMP의 역할에 대한 유효한 자료는 거의 없는 실정이다. 연구방법 : 특정 항원이 없는 암컷 BALB/c 쥐를 약간 변형된 Sugawara 등의 방법에 따라 ethyl acetate에 3% TDI를 녹인 용액을 5일 연속 매일 한번씩 비강내 주입하여 쥐를 감작시켰다. 기관지폐포 세척액의 채취하여 세포 분석과 MMPs의 측정하였고 폐조직에서 면역화학적 검사를 시행하였다. MMP 억제재를 TDI 부하(challenge) 30분전에 시작하여 24시간 간격으로 3회 복강내로 (10 또는 20mg/kg) 주입하고 기도 반응도를 측정하였다. 결 과 : TDI 감작 부하군에서 기관지폐포 세척액 염증 세포수와 MMP-9 및 폐조직의 면역화학적 검사상 MMP-9의 발현의 유의한 증가가 관찰되었다. MMP 억제재투여후 TDI 감작 부하군에서 기관지 폐포 세척액 염증 세포수와 MMP-9 및 폐조직의 면역화학적 검사상 MMP-9의 발현의 유의한 감소를 보였고 기도 과민성을 억제하였다. 결 론 : 본 연구의 결과는 MMP 억제재가 TDI 유발성 천식에 대한 훌륭한 치료제로서 향후 연구의 가치가 있음을 강력히 시사한다.

  • The properties of a investment material can be described by the consistency at the slurry state, the setting time, the compressive strength and the thermal expansion during the casting. In this study the effect of the production parameters which are included the ratio of quartz and cristobalite, the content of binder, the water powder ratio and the content and concentration of additives on the Properties of the gypsum-bonded investments has been investigated with help of the consistency test, the vicat needle test, the compressive strength test, the thermal expansion test, x-ray diffraction and DTA thermal differential test. The experimental results showed that the constitution of a investment with W/P ratio of 0.34, 30% of gypsum, 0.8% aluminium sulfate, 2% magnesium sulfate, 0.6% sodium phosphate was adapted for the properties of the KDA Spec. No. 13 type I investment. The important experimental results are summarized as follows. 1. The consistency of the investment decreased with increasing amount of aluminium sulfate and decreasing amount of sodium phosphate. An addition of magnesium sulfate up to 2% an increase of the consistency was shown. But 3% magnesium sulfate in investment showed a decrease of the consistency. The consistency did not vary significantly with a variation of the content of gypsum and cristobalite and the W/P ratio. 2. Aluminium sulfate and the magnesium sulfate promoted the hardening and the aluminium phosphate delayed the hardening. The setting time increased with amount of gypsum. The effect of the matrix on the setting time was insignificant. With the W/P ratio of 0.34 the setting time was 14 min. 3. The compressive strength decreased with the amount of aluminium sulfate up to 0.25% and increased with the amount of aluminium sulfate greater than 3%. The compressive strength decreased as decreasing the amount of magnesium sulfate and gypsum and as increasing the W/P ratio. The effect of the refractory on the compressive strength was also not significant. With the W/P ratio of 0.34 the compressive strength was $34Kg/mm^2$. 4. The 1st thermal expansion was found at the temperature near and the steady state or the contraction stage was found at the temperature between $250^{\circ}C$ and $500^{\circ}C$. After this stage the 2nd thermal expansion took place at the temperature near $500^{\circ}C$. The amount of thermal expansion increased with decreasing the content of magnesium sulfate, aluminium sulfate and gypsum and the W/P ratio. And the amount of thermal expansion increased as the content of sodium phosphate and cristobalite. With the W/P ratio of 0.34 the amount of total expansion was 1.2%.

  • 전기저항 측정법과 인장 및 압축 시험을 이용하여, 탄소섬유/에폭시 복합재료의 정화특성과 계면물성을 평가하였다. 계면이 존재하지 않는 탄소섬유 자체만을 사용했을 경우에는 경화 초기와 최종단계의 저항차이는 없었으며, 계면이 존재하는 탄소섬유/에폭시 시편의 경우에는 매트릭스 경화 수축에 의해 저항차가 크게 나타났다. 인장 하충하의 저항 변화 측정에서, 전기증작된 시편은 섬유의 첫 파단에 의해 저항이 무한대로 도달하는 시간이 미처리에 비해 다소 지연되는 현상을 보였다. 인장 및 압축 시험에서 표면처리된 시연은 미처리섬유에 비해 계면전단 강도가 현저히 크게 증가하였다. 인장의 경우, 미처리 섬유에서는 debonding 형태, 그리고 표면처리된 섬유에서는 cone 형태의 판단이 관찰되었다. 압축에서는 부러진 섬유 끝에서 대각선으로 미끄러지는 파단 현상이 두 경우 모두에서 나타났는데, 미처리섬유는 창 끝과 같은 예리한 파단이 일어나며, 전기증착된 섬유는 다소 둔한 판단이 나타났다. 이를 통해 전기증착에 의한 표면처리가 계면접착력과 미세파괴구조에 인장 및 압축하에서 각각 다른 영향을 주는 것을 확인하였다.

  • For the analysis of vertical vibrations of a ship's hull, the Timoshenko beam analogy is accepted up to seven or eight-node modes provided that the system parameters are properly calculated. As to the shear coefficient, it has been a common practice to apply the strain energy method or the projected area method. The theoretical objection to the former is that it ignores lateral contraction due to Poisson's ratio, and the latter is of extreme simplifications. Recently, Cowper's and Stephen's shear coefficient formulas have drawn ship vibration analysts' attentions because these formulas, derivation of which are based on an integrations of the equations of three-dimensional elasticity, take Poisson's ratio into account. Providing computer programs for calculation of the shear coefficient of ship sections modeled as thin-walked multicell sections by each of the forementioned methods, the authors calculated natural vibration characteristics of a bulk carrier and of a container ship by the transfer matrix method using shear coefficients obtained by each of the methods, and discussed the results in comparision. The major conclusions resulted from this investigation are as follows: (1) The shear coefficients taking account of the effects of Poisson's ratio, Cowper's $K_c$ and Stephen's $K_s$, result in higher values of about 10% in maximum as compared with the shear coefficient $K_o$ based on the conventional strain energy methods; (a) $K_c/K_o{\cong}1.05\;and\;K_s/K_o{\cong}1.10$ for ships having single skin side-shell such as a bulk carrier. (b) $K_c/K_o{\cong}1.02\;and\;K_s/K_o{\cong}1.05$ for ships having longitudinally through bulkheads and/or double side-shells in the portion of the cargo hod such as a container carrier. (2) The distributions of the effective shear area along the ship's hull based on each of $K_o,\;K_c\;and\;K_s$ are similar each another except the both end portions. (3) Natural frequencies and mode shapes of the hull based on each of $K_c\;and\;K_s$ are of small differences as compared each other. (4) In cases of using $K_c\;or\;K_s$ in ship vibration analysis, it is also desirable to have the bending rigidity be corrected according to the effective breadth concept. And then, natural frequencies and mode shapes calculated with the bending rigidity corrected in the above and with each of $K_o,\;K_c\;and\;K_s$ result in small differences as compared each another. (5) Referring to those mentioned in the above (3) and (4) and to the full-scale experimental results reported by Asmussen et al.[17], and considering laboursome to prepare the computer input data, the following suggestions can safely be made; (a) Use of $K_o$ in ship vibration analysis is appropriate in practical senses. (b) Use of $K_c$ is appropriate even for detailed vibration analysis of a ship's hull. (6) The effective shear area based on the projected area method is acceptable for the two-node mode.
