  • 현재 국내에서는 안전 운전 서비스 및 교통정보 수집체계 구축에 USN 기술을 적용하기 위한 다양한 연구와 시범사업이 추진되고 있다. 텔레매틱스 교통안전시스템[1][2]은 교차로 주변의 도로 위에 무선 센서 노드를 부착하여 무선 센서 노드 위를 지나는 차량들의 정보(속도, 위치, ID 등)를 수신하여 무선 센서 네트워크를 이용해 교차로 중앙에 위치한 베이스 스테이션으로 전송하고, 베이스 스테이션은 이렇게 실시간으로 수집한 정보를 분석하여 얻은 차량안전 운전정보를 교차로에 접근하는 차량들에게 브로드캐스팅하여 차량충돌을 회피하도록 하는 시스템이다. 본 논문에서 다루는 텔레매틱스 교통안전시스템은 Telematics Scheduling Protocol(TSP)[1]을 무선 센서 노드간 통신 프로토콜로 사용하는데 무선 센서 네트워크 특성상 온도, 날씨 등의 주변환경에 의해 노드간 통신에 있어서 높은 데이터 전송 에러율을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 무선 센서 네트워크 프로토콜로 TSP를 사용하는 교통안전시스템에서 무선 데이터 전송 에러율, 교차로를 지나가는 차량의 숫자 그리고 도로 표면에 부착된 고정노드간 거리변화가 성능에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위하여 네트워크 시뮬레이터 ns-2[3]를 이용해 시뮬레이션한다.

  • Superconducting detectors are promising as ion detectors for time-of-flight mass spectrometers (TOF MS). They can achieve mass-independent detection efficiency even for macromolecular bombardments, because output signals are produced through the deposited kinetic energy at ion impact instead of secondary electron emission that is the ion detection mechanism of conventional microchannel plate (MCP) detectors or secondary electron multipliers (SEM). Among the superconducting detectors, the superconducting strip ion detectors (SSIDs), which consist of several hundreds of superconducting lines with a width of a few hundreds nm and a thickness of a few tens of nm, have a fast response time of less than 1 ns. Inherently, the response time of SSIDs is determined by kinetic inductance, so that it was difficult to realize a fast SSID with a large detection area. However, we succeeded in realizing the detector size up to $5{\times}5mm^2$ without response time degradation by using a parallel configuration.

  • Recently nano-materials are gaining more importance in the construction industry due to its enhanced energy efficiency, durability, economy, and sustainability. Nano-silica addition to cement based materials can control the degradation of the fundamental calcium-silicate-hydrate reaction of concrete caused by calcium leaching in water as well as block water penetration and therefore lead to improvements in durability. In this paper, the influence of synthesized nano silica from locally available rice husk on the mechanical properties and corrosion resistant properties of OPC (Ordinary Portland Cement) has been studied by conducting various experimental investigations. Micro structural properties have been assessed by conducting Scanning Electron Microscopy, Thermo gravimetry and Differential Thermal Analysis, X-Ray Diffraction analysis, and FTIR studies. The experimental results revealed that NS reacted with calcium hydroxide crystals in the cement paste and produces Calcium Silicate Hydrate gel which enhanced the strength and acts as a filler which filled the nano pores present in concrete. Hence the strength and corrosion resistant properties were enhanced than the control.

  • The plant hormone auxin is involved in all stages of plant development. Aux/IAAs are the transcriptional repressors that bind to the Auxin Response Factors (ARFs) to regulate the gene expression upon auxin release. Aux/IAA have highly conserved C-terminal domains (domains III-IV) that mediate both homotypic and heterotypic interactions between Aux/IAA and ARF family proteins. Recent studies revealed that the conserved domains III-IV share a common ${\beta}$-grasp fold that oligomerizes in a front-to-back manner. In particular, Aux/IAA contains a mobile insert helix in the domain III-IV, whereas ARFs do not. Here, we investigated the dynamics of the insert helix using paramagnetic NMR spectroscopy. The insert helix exhibited fast motions in the ps-ns time scale from $^{15}N$ relaxation data, but the amplitude of the motion is likely limited to the local neighborhood. Our result suggests that the motion of the helix may have functional implications in protein-protein interactions for transcriptional regulations.

  • Distributed Denial of Service(D-DoS) 공격을 차단하기 위해서는 AS(Autonomous System) 경계 라우터에 필터를 설치하는 것이 필요하다. 필터가 설치되는 라우터의 개수를 최소로 하는 Vertex Cover(VC)--모든 edge를 커버하는 Vertex의 모임--을 찾아내는 방법은 NP-complete 문제가 된다. 따라서 Vertex Cover(VC) 근사기법 중에서 Greedy 알고리즘과 Approximated VC 알고리즘에 대해 Vertex Cover(VC)을 찾아내는 방법을 적용하여 실험하였다. Vertex Cover(VC)를 찾을 경우 Worst case에서 이론상 VC수의 최대 2배의 Vertex Cover(VC)를 찾아낼 수 있는 Approximated VC 알고리즘의 장점과 적은 수의 Vertex Cover(VC)로 모든 edge를 커버할 수 있는 Greedy 알고리즘[7]의 장점을 모두 갖춘 Vertex Cover(VC) 근사 기법을 구현하였다. NS-2를 이용한 실험 결과, 제안된 알고리즘은 Greedy 알고리즘보다 Vertex Cover를 찾아가는 단계 수에 따른 커버되는 층 노드 수를 비교하였을 때. 전체 노드의 75%를 커버하는데 24번의 단계가 필요하여 Greedy 알고리즘의 40개 보다 40%의 단계의 수적인 감소가 일어났으며 전체노드의 90%를 커버하는데 38%의 단계 개수의 감소가 일어났다. 실험으로 제안된 알고리즘이 Vertex Cover(VC) 톨 찾아가는 단계 측면에서 좀더 빠르게 AS 경계 라우터에 필터를 설치하여 D-DoS에 효율적으로 대처해 나갈 수 있음을 확인할 수 있다.

  • Wireless multimedia sensor networks (WMSNs) require real-time quality-of-service (QoS) guarantees to be provided by the network. The end-to-end delay is very critical metric for QoS guarantees in WMSNs. In WMSNs, due to the transmission errors incurred over wireless channels, it is difficult to obtain reliable delivery of data in conjunction with low end-to-end delay. In order to improve the end-to-end delay performance, the system has to drop few packets during network congestion. In this article, our proposal is based on optimization of end-to end delay for WMSNs. We optimize end-to-end delay constraint by assuming that each packet is allowed fixed number of retransmissions. To optimize the end-to-end delay, first, we compute the performance measures of the system, such as end-to-end delay and reliability for different network topologies (e.g., linear topology, tree topology) and against different choices of system parameters (e.g., data rate, number of nodes, number of retransmissions). Second, we study the impact of the end-to-end delay and packet delivery ratio on indoor and outdoor environments in WMSNs. All scenarios are simulated with multiple run-times by using network simulator-2 (NS-2) and results are evaluated and discussed.

  • In this study, the high-velocity impact penetration behavior of $[45/0/-45/90]_{ns}$ carbon/epoxy composite laminates was studied. The considered configuration includes a spherical steel ball impacting clamped circular laminates with various thicknesses and diameters. First, the impact experiment was performed to measure residual velocity and extent of damage. Next, the impact experiment was numerically simulated through finite element analysis using LS-dyna. Three-dimensional solid elements were used to model each ply of the laminates discretely, and progressive material failure was modeled using MAT162. The result indicated that the finite element simulation yielded residual velocities and damage modes well-matched with those obtained from the experiment. It was found that fiber damage was localized near the impactor penetration path, while matrix and delamination damage were much more spread out with the damage mode showing a dependency on the orientation angles and ply locations. The ballistic-limit velocities obtained by fitting the residual velocities increased almost linearly versus the laminate diameter, but the amount of increase was small, showing that the impact energy was absorbed mostly by the localized impact damage and that the influence of the laminate size was not significant at high-velocity impact.

  • An important goal of computational wind engineering is to impact the design process with simulations of flow around buildings and bridges. One challenging aspect of this goal is to solve the Navier-Stokes (NS) equations accurately. For the unsteady computations, an adaptive finite element technique may reduce the computer time and storage. The preliminary application of a p-version as well as an h-version adaptive technique to computational wind engineering has been reported in previous paper. The details on the implementation of p-adaptive technique will be discussed in this paper. In this technique, two posteriori error estimations, which are based on the velocity and vorticity, are first presented. Then, the polynomial order of the interpolation function is increased continuously element by element until the estimated error is less than the accepted. The second through sixth orders of hierarchical functions are used as the interpolation polynomials. Unequal order interpolations are used for velocity and pressure. Using the flow around a circular cylinder with Reynolds number of 1000 the two error estimators are compared. The result show that the estimated error based on the velocity is lower than that based on the vorticity.

  • As the old saying 'nothing is complete unless you put it in final shape', although nanosheets (NSs) are a promising functional building block for various electrochemical applications, their true value cannot be realized until they are well woven into electrical conducting materials. As an effort to determine their ideal shape, in this study, a unique manufacturing route to build a layer-by-layer (LBL) structure of two-dimensionally ordered, free-standing ${\beta}$-nickel hydroxide nanosheets (${\beta}$-NHNSs) that are fully electrically addressed with single-wall carbon nanotube fabrics was demonstrated, and its capabilities were verified through a comparative study on the differences between a simple bulky and LBL-structured electrochemical cathode, representing two extreme cases. The LBL-structured cathode showed a discharging current peak that was 25 times larger than the bulky structured one measured in cyclic voltammetry, which implies that the LBL structure is near an ideal electrode configuration for NS-based electrochemical applications.

  • Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV), a major pathogen of cattle, is a well-characterized pestivirus which has been used as a good model virus for HCV. The RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) plays a key role in the RNA replication process, thus it has been targeted for antivirus drugs. We employed two-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship (2D-QSAR) and molecular field analysis (MFA) to identify the molecular substructure requirements, and the particular characteristics resulted in increased inhibitory activity for the known series of compounds to act as effective BVDV inhibitors. The 2D-QSAR study provided the rationale concept for changes in the structure to have more potent analogs focused on the class of arylazoenamines, benzimidazoles, and acridine derivatives with an optimal subset of descriptors, which have significantly contributed to overall anti-BVDV activity. MFA represented the molecular patterns responsible for the actions of antiviral compound at their receptors. We conclude that the polarity and the polarizability of a molecule play a main role in the inhibitory activity of BVDV inhibitors in the QSAR modeling.
