We describe a multigrid wavelet-based natural pixel (WNP) method for image reconstruction in emission computed tomography (ECT). The ECT is used to identify the tagged radioactive material's position in the body for detection of abnormal tissue such as tumor or cancer, as in SPECT and PET. With ECT methodology in parallel beam mode, we formulate a matrix-based reconstruction method for radionuclide sources in the human body. The resulting matrix for a practical problem is very large and nearly singular. To overcome this ill-conditioning, wavelet transform is considered in this study. Wavelets have inherent de-noising and multiscale resolution properties. Therefore, the multigrid wavelet-based natural pixel (WNP) method is very efficient to reconstruct image from projection data that is noisy and incomplete. We test this multigrid wavelet natural pixel (WNP) reconstruction method with the MCNP generated projection data for diagnosis of the simulated cancerous tumor.

The performance of vibration-based damage detection methods is dependent upon the accuracy of modal parameters measured from structures of interest. Vibration monitoring, performed on a structure under uncertain temperature conditions, results in the uncertainty in model parameters of the structure. In this study, an experiment on the effect of various temperatures on modal characteristics of steel plate-girders is presented. First, the model plate-girder used for the experiment is described. Second, natural frequencies measured from the structure, using two different excitation sources, are described. Third, natural frequencies measured from the structure, under various temperatures, are described. Finally, the relationship between measurement temperature and natural frequency is analyzed.

The natural dyestuff(squid ink) was manufactured from squid ink by boiling in 0.1% NaOH solution and powdering in freeze dryer. Cotton, wool, silk and nylon fabrics were dyed under several conditions using the manufactured squid ink to investigate the dyeability and color fastness. Dyeing was operated in acidic dyebath of pH 4 because the squid ink is anionic. Dyeabilities on wool, silk and nylon fabrics were good, especially silk fabrics were dyed deeper than others because of being amine group. But dyeability on cotton fabrics was low and developed with chitosan treatment. All the dyed fabrics showed excellent in color fastness to crocking and laundering. Also light fastness of them were excellent except nylon. The light fastness of dyed-nylon fabrics was as poor as grade 1, but they could be improved to grade 4 by aftertreatment with gallicacid. Useing the natural dyestuff-squid ink powder, we could execute whenever we want to dye fabrics in the adequate concentration. Dyeabilities were developed according to repeating times of dyeing and the increased dye concentration. We could recycle the wasting sources.

Angiotensins and bradykinin play important roles in blood pressure regulation and in other physiological and pathological conditions. The present work is aimed to investigate potential antagonists against either angiotensin or bradykinin from plant sources. Each methanol extract of selected 25 plants was solvent fractionated to three fractions. The effects of total of 75 plant samples against the contractions induced by angiotensin I or bradykinin in rat ileum were measured. The results are summarized.

대구광역시의 도로, 학교, 지하역사, 주택 등을 대상으로 축적먼지를 채취하여 100 ${\mu}m$ 이하로 걸러서 산추출한 후 ICP로 14개 원소를 분석하였다. 미량원소성분 중 Ca, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, Na, V는 자연적인 발생원의 영향을 받고, Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, Zn은 인위적인 발생원의 영향을 받고 있는 것으로 추정되었다. 미량원소성분의 농도는 자연적인 발생원 성분이 인위적인 발생원 성분보다 매우 높은 수준을 보였다. 특히 학교는 Ca과 Pb의 농도가 높았고, 지하역사는 Cu와 Zn의 농도가 높았다. 미량원소성분의 조성백분율은 실내인 지하역사 주택 학교가 실외인 도로보다 인위적인 발생원 성분을 많이 함유하였다. 또한 유해중금속성분의 오염도는 학교 주택 지하역사가 도로보다 높았고, 도시지역이 농촌지역보다 높은 전형적인 경향을 보였다. 미량원소성분간의 상관성은 흙먼지나 도로의 재비산먼지관련 성분간에 양호하였고, 폐기물소각이나 연료연소관련 성분간에도 양호하였다.

Purpose: This study was conducted to develop a measurement system for determining photosynthetic photon flux (PPF) distribution and illumination efficiency of LED lamps. Methods: The system was composed of a linear moving sensor part (LMSP), a rotating part to turn the LMSP, a body assembly to support the rotating part, and a motor controller. The average PPF of the LED lamp with natural cooling and water cooling was evaluated using the measurement system. Results: The PPF of LED lamp with water cooling was 3.1-31.7% greater than that with natural cooling. Based on the measured value, PPF on the horizontal surface was predicted. Illumination efficiency of the LED lamp was slightly increased with water cooling by 3.4%, compared with natural cooling. A simulation program using MATLAB was developed to analyze the effects of the vertical distance from lighting sources to growing bed, lamp spacing, and number of LED lamps, on the PPF distribution on the horizontal surface. The uniformity of the PPF distribution of the LED lamps was fairly improved with 15 cm spacing, as compared to the 5 cm spacing. By simulation, PPF of $217.0{\pm}27.9{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$ was obtained at the vertical distance of 40 cm from six LED lamps with 12 cm spacing. This simulated PPF was compared to the measured one of $225.9{\pm}25.6{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$. After continuous lighting of 346 days, the relative PPF of LED lamps with water cooling and natural cooling was decreased by 6.6% and 22.8%, respectively. Conclusions: From these results, it was concluded that the measurement system developed in this study was useful for determining PPF and illumination efficiency of artificial lighting sources including LED lamp.

본 연구에서는 최근 4년간(2015년~2018년)의 하절기 기간(6월~8월)에 생산한 발전량 및 발전설비용량 데이터를 기반으로 천연가스, 석탄, 원자력, 신재생에너지 상호간의 가동률에 대해 비교 분석한 것이다. 기저발전을 담당하는 원자력 발전과 석탄 발전은 발전설비용량에 비해 실제로 생산한 발전량이 60% 정도로 높게 유지되었기 때문에 경제성을 확보한 것이다. 반면에 천연가스 발전과 신재생에너지 발전은 발전설비 투자 대비 실제 가동률이 29.5%와 27.3%로 대단히 낮아 발전원가를 낮추기 어려운 구조이다. 그러나 석탄 발전은 온실가스와 미세먼지 발생량 측면에서 구조적인 문제점을 갖고 있다. 반면에 천연가스 발전은 상대적으로 온실가스 발생량이 적고 안전해도 첨두발전 체계에 묶여 경제성을 확보하기 어려운 구조이다. 따라서 발전정책의 변화가 있어야 에너지원간의 균형발전이 가능할 것으로 예상된다.

Methane is the cleanest fuel and supplies by many distributed type: liquefaction natural gas (LNG), compressed natural gas (CNG), and pipeline natural gas (PNG). Natural gas is mainly composed by methane and has been discovered in the oil and gas fields. Coal bed methane (CBM) is also one of them which reserved in coalbed. This significant new energy sources has emerge to convert an energy source, hydrogen and hydrogen-driven chemicals. For this CBM, this paper was written to analyze the geological analysis and reserves in Mongolian Tavan Tolgoi CBM coal mine and to examine the application field. This paper is mainly a preliminary feasibility report analyzing the business of Tavan Tolgoi CBM and its exploitable gas.
