Rapid progress in urbanization has resulted in a change of the micro climate, especially in the urban area. In order to investigate the phenomenon of the heat island in the residential micro climate, a field survey was carried out by 4 sets of the residential type in Jeonju under typical winter synoptic condition. As analytic methode, it is used the comparison on the relation of the Land-to-Coverage Rate to Heat Island and Oxygen Concentration. And as a key question it is asked how stable characteristics of the micro climate will result from the survey of the Heat Island and the Oxygen Concentration, used as indicator. To ensure the trustworthy result of research, it is calculated the critical influence of the wind velocity and the Land-to-Covearage Rate. As a result of comparative analysis, it could be confirmed that the local temperatures in all sets of the residential type were higher than the average temperature in Jeonju. But the housing type A 'exclusive use for housing zone' has relativly the most stable and best living condition. On the contrary the residential type B and D has the worst toward the oxygen concentration in the time zone 9-12 a.m., which didn't reach the minimum of the oxygen concentration $20.5{\%}.$ It means that the higer the development and population density is, the worse is the situation of the Quality of Life in the residential types in accordance with the heat island and oxygon con­centration.

The use of plastics in our everyday lives have been drastically increased during the last few decades. However with the usage of commercial plastic products there is a possibility of microplastic consumption, due to the fragmentation of the products. Additionally, the potential for microplastic ingestion may also be increased by using damaged products. Hence, the current study was conducted to understand the potential release of micro/nano plastics and organic matter from damaged teabags. To check the leakage tendency, the amount of damage to the tea bags from 1-10 cm were tested along with temperatures of 25-70℃, and exposure times from 5 min to 1 hr was tested. Release of fibrous micro/nanoplastics, and organic leachate from the damaged teabags were observed to understand the outflow conditions. Results showed that with the increased degree of damage, temperature, and exposure time increased the release of fiberous matter, where the increase of temperature, and exposure time increased organic leachate. Additional analysis confirmed the leachate of nylon polymers into the heated water.

본 연구는 시멘트계 재료의 프랙탈 특성에 관한 기초적 연구로써, 고로슬래그 미분말 혼입 시멘트 페이스트의 공극 구조를 수은압입법을 이용하여 측정하였고, 측정된 결과를 프랙탈 모델에 적용하여 그 특성을 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 고로슬래그미분말 혼입 시멘트 페이스트의 공극 구조는 그 범위가 나노미터부터 밀리미터 단위까지 다양하게 분포하는 불규칙한 조직이기 때문에, 전체 영역에 대한 프랙탈 차원을 산정했을 때 각 공극 영역의 특성을 반영할 수 없다. 따라서 프랙탈 차원 산정 시 공극 영역을 나누어서 분석하였다. Zhang and Li (1995) model을 적용했을 때, 시멘트와 GGBFS의 수화반응 결과 생성된 C-S-H 내의 gel pores 및 small capillary pores에 해당하는 micro 영역과 large capillary pores에 해당하는 macro 영역에서 각각 프랙탈 특성이 나타나는 결과를 보였다. 또한 macro 영역보다 micro 영역의 공극 표면이 더 불규칙한 형상을 나타내었다. Ji et al. (1997) model을 적용할 경우, micro 영역이 C-S-H 내의 gel pores에 해당하는 micro I과 small capillary pores에 해당하는 micro II로 구분되었으며, 각각의 프랙탈 특성이 산정되었다. 또한 Zhang and Li (1995) model을 결과와 유사하게, macro, micro II, micro I의 순서대로 공극 크기가 작아질수록 VFD 결과 값이 감소하였으며, 이는 곧 공극의 복잡성이 증가함을 나타낸다.

The Korean Tilting Train eXpress may produced a strong micro-pressure wave in tunnel exit because of large train/tunnel area ration of conventional railways. This micro-pressure wave causes an impulsive noise which is a serious environmental noise pollution near tunnel exit. Tunnel hood can be the method of reducing the micro-pressure wave in tunnel exit. Therefore, parametric studies for tunnel hood are performed with respect to the hood length and size to investigate the effects of the tunnel hood. Also, axi-symmetric unsteady compressible flow solver was used to analyze train-tunnel relative motion. According to the result of numerical analysis, the maximum micro-pressure wave in tunnel exit is reduced by 56% throughout the hood establishment on conventional railways.

Increase in the utilization rate of recycled paper has significantly increased the problem associated with stickies. Despite the effort to eliminate contaminants from recycled furnishes, stickies are still the most serious obstacle in using recycled paper. The amount of micro stickies that are too small to be eliminated by screening, tends to increase significantly as the closure level of white water system is increased and the quality of raw material deteriorates. To establish a process efficient in removing micro stickies is strongly required. In this study, the surface characteristic of micro stickies was investigated with contact angle measurement. Surface energies of MCC, PSA film and model micro stickies were 53.37 mN/m, 29.75mN/m, and 29.63mN/m, respectively. This indicates that the surface characteristic of MMS is very similar to PSA. Thus, solvent coating of PSA and evaporation of the solvent provided excellent model micro stickies for flotation experiment.

Hydraulic performance of a micro-bubble pump has been analyzed by numerical simulation and experimental measurements. Flow recirculation apparatus between the pump inlet and outlet reserviors has been adopted to measure pump performance according to flow conditions sequentially. To analyze three-dimensional flow field in the micro-bubble pump, general analysis code, CFX, is employed. SST turbulence model is employed to estimate the eddy viscosity and compared the pump performance to k-${\varepsilon}$ model. Unstructured grids are used to represent a composite grid system including blade, casing and inlet casing. It is found that the numerical model used in the present study is effective to evaluate the pump performance. From the numerical simulation, low velocity region due to pressure loss is decreased where pump efficiency has maximum value. Detailed flow field inside the micro-bubble pump is also analyzed and compared.

이미지 분석을 통한 재료의 상 구분은 재료의 미세구조 분석을 위해 필수적이다. 이미지 분석에 주로 사용되는 마이크로-CT 이미지는 대체로 재료를 구성하고 있는 상에 따라 회색조 값이 다르게 나타나므로 이미지의 회색조 값 비교를 통해 상을 구분한다. 순환골재의 고체상은 수화된 시멘트풀과 천연골재로 구분되는데, 시멘트풀과 천연골재는 CT이미지 상에서 유사한 회색조 분포를 보여 상을 구분하기 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 Unet-VGG16 네트워크를 활용하여 순환골재 CT 이미지로부터 천연골재를 분할하는 자동화 방법을 제안하였다. 딥러닝 네트워크를 활용하여 2차원 순환골재 CT 이미지로부터 천연골재 영역을 분할하는 방법과 이를 3차원으로 적층하여 3차원 천연골재 이미지를 얻는 방법을 제시하였다. 선별된 3차원 천연골재 이미지에서 각각의 골재 입자를 분할하기 위해 이미지 필터링을 사용하였다. 골재 영역 분할 성능을 정확도, 정밀도, 재현율 F1 스코어를 통해 검증하였다.

The current transportation regime is largely based on two alternatives: (1) fixed route public transit, and (2) private ownership of internal combustion engine (ICE) powered vehicles per households. This paper analyzes one possible transportation alternative, Micro Electric Vehicles or MEVs, and compares with the ICE vehicles in terms of social, economic and environmental benefits, especially emphasizing its environmental advantage over ICE vehicles for future sustainability. While some representative models of MEVs exist in a limited market capacity, but global technical standards are generally insufficient and non-homogenous across nations, which restricts the development of the proposed transportation sector. The focus of this paper is to analyze the characteristics and potential benefits of MEVs in economical and environmental perspectives, including development status and technical standards, with a particular focus in the E.U., the U.S., Japan, and Korea. Based on the data of analysis, this paper aims to derive and propose a cooperative and adaptive global policy framework designed to speed up adoption and expansion of the global MEV market, including passenger and utility vehicles. We propose MEV to be a new mobility segment in the global transportation market because of their advantage in environmental impact, sustainability, overall cost of ownership, and safety.

최근 미세먼지와 관련된 환경문제를 개선하기 위해 유해물질을 제거할 수 있는 광촉매와 흡착제에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 전체 공극량이 일반 건설재료에 비해 상당히 큰 폼 콘크리트에 다량의 마이크로 공극를 갖는 야자계 활성탄소를 이용해서 다공성 폼 복합체를 제작하였다. 미세먼지 흡착 가능성을 평가하기 위해 제작된 폼 복합체에 대해 공극 구조를 분석하였다. 폼 복합체의 공극구조 분석은 측정된 질소 흡착등온선으로부터 BET와 Harkins-jura이론을 적용하였다. 분석결과 활성탄소를 혼입한 폼 복합체의 비표면적과 마이크로 공극 부피가 Plain보다 크게 증가하였다. 활성탄소 혼입율이 증가할수록 폼 복합체의 비표면적과 마이크로 공극 부피가 증가하는 경향을 나타냈다. 이는 폼 복합체가 가스상의 미세먼지 전구물질 NO_X에 대한 흡착성능이 높을 것으로 보인다.

As the distributed generation becomes more reliable and economically feasible, it is expected that a higher application of the distributed generation units would be interconnected to the existing grids. In this context, the Micro Gas Turbines (MGT) by using Bio-gas is being considered as a promising solution. In order to propose a feasible concept of those technologies such as improving environmental effect and economics, we performed a sensitivity study for a biomass fueled MGT using a simulation model. The study consists of 1) the fundamental modeling using manufacturer's technical specifications, 2) the correction with the experimental data, and 3) the prediction of off-design characteristics. The performance analysis model was developed by PEPSE-GT 72, commercial steam/gas turbine simulation technicque.
