X선이 객체를 투과할 때 산란 방사선이 발생한다. 이를 방지하기 위하여 산란 방지 그리드를 사용하는데, 이때 투영 방사선 영상에 그리드 영상이 중첩되어 나타난다. 이러한 영상이 출력되면 영상에 무아레 무늬가 나타나 해부학적 정보를 가리게 된다. 그리드에 의한 잡음을 제거하기 위하여 현재까지 수행된 연구에서는 1차원 주파수 영역에서 그리드의 주파수를 계산하거나 2차원 웨이블릿 변환 및 푸리에 변환을 사용하여 잡음의 주파수를 제거하였다. 이러한 방법들은 그리드 잡음뿐만 아니라 영상에서의 진단 정보도 함께 제거하였다. 본 연구에서는 웨이블릿 패킷과 푸리에 변환 방법을 조합하여 CR 영상에서 그리드 잡음을 제거하는 방법을 제안하였다. 제안한 방법을 팬텀영상에 적용한 결과 신호 대 잡음 비율이 기존 방법에 비하여 5.2 - 7.4 dB 향상 되었으며, 실제 CR영상에 적용한 결과 그리드에 의한 주파수 대역을 효과적으로 제거하고 나머지 주파수 대역을 보호함으로써 영상 정보의 손실을 최소화한 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

산청지역 회장암에 함유된 녹니석이 풍화되면서 겪는 광물학적, 조직학적, 화학적 변화를 X선 회절분석, 주사전자현미경 및 전자현미분석을 이용하여 연구하였다. 회장암에 함유된 녹색의 녹니석은 함철단사녹니석으로서 구조상 IIb형에 속한다. 단사녹니석은 $Fe^{2+}$의 산화와 층간 수화물층의 선택적인 용탈에 의해 버미큘라이트화하여 녹니석/버미큘라이트 규칙 혼합층을 형성하며 이 광물은 별개의 버미큘라이트 단계를 거치지 않고 곧바로 할로이사이트로 풍화된다. 녹니석 패킷은 녹니석/버미큘라이트 규칙혼합층으로 변하면서 보다 얇은 패킷들로 갈라지며 할로이사이트화 과정에서는 큰 체적 증가와 함께 특징적인 부채 구조가 형성된다. 녹니석/버미큘라이트 규칙혼합층의 직접적인 할로이사이트화는 이 지역 회장암의 빠른 풍화속도에 기인한다.

In this study, microstructural evaluation was carried out on secondary hardening type ultrahigh strength steel, Fe-Co-Ni composition. This paper as a first part of whole research presented the microstructural behavior by cyclic heat treatment. The cyclic heat treatment method includes normalizing, stress relieving, solution treatment and aging. Especially, solution treatments performed triple times to get maximized solution hardening. Phase transformation and microstructure were observed by using optical microscope (OM), Electron back-scattered diffraction (EBSD) and X-ray stress analyzer. During the triple solution treatment, size of grain boundary was dramatically decreased by generating a packet from the martensite transformation of residual austenite in the inner part of grain, whereas the hardness increase was not significant.

We present characteristics of hydrothermal chlorite and its interstratification with 7-$\AA$ mineral phase that occur in the propylitic alteration zone of the Bobae sericite deposit formed in rhyodacitic tuff. Chlorite is found as disseminated fine-grained aggregate or replacement materials of precursor minerals such as Fe-oxides and amphibole. Based on X-ray diffraction(XRD), all chlorites belong to IIb polytype and the (060) reflections averaging $1.53~1.54\AA$ indicate a trioctahedral structure. Chemical compositions of chlorite show that the Fe/(Fe+Mg) values are mostly in the range of 0.44~0.53, and cation deficiencies in octahedral sites range from 0.06 to 0.37. Under scanning electron microscope(SEM) chlorite occurs as well-crystallized aggregates and is subparallely stacked in interstices or between grain boundaries of associated minerals. transmission electron microscopic(TEM) images reveal that chlorite shows regular layers with $14-\AA$ spacings, locally interstratified with $7-\AA$ or $21-\AA$ periodicities. The $21- \AA$ periodicity corresponds to the sum of the $d_{001}$ values of chlorite and $7-\AA$ phase. The chlorite packet coexisting with 7-$\AA$ layers displays abundant defects such as edge dislocations and layer terminations. Selected-area electron diffraction(SAED) indicates that chlorite and $7-\AA$ phase are randomly interstratified in the mixed-layer areas. We propose a lateral change of layers for the polymorphic transition of $7-\AA$ phase to chlorite.e.

Many studies are undertaken into nuclear power plants (NPPs) in preparation for accidents exceeding design standards. In this paper, we analyze the applicability of various wireless communication technologies as accident countermeasures in different NPP environments. In particular, a commercial wireless communication module (WCM) is investigated by measuring leakage current and packet error rate (PER), which vary depending on the intensity of incident radiation on the module, by testing at a Co-60 gamma-ray irradiation facility. The experimental results show that the WCMs continued to operate after total doses of 940 and 1097 Gy, with PERs of 3.6% and 0.8%, when exposed to irradiation dose rates of 185 and 486 Gy/h, respectively. In short, the lower irradiation dose rate decreased the performance of WCMs more than the higher dose rate. In experiments comparing the two communication protocols of request/response and one-way, the WCMs survived up to 997 and 1177 Gy, with PERs of 2% and 0%, respectively. Since the request/response protocol uses both the transmitter and the receiver, while the one-way protocol uses only the transmitter, then the electronic system on the side of the receiver is more vulnerable to radiation effects. From our experiments, the tested module is expected to be used for design-based accidents (DBAs) of "Category A" type, and has confirmed the possibility of using wireless communication systems in NPPs.

Wireless signal transmission is influenced by environmental effects. These effects have also been challenging for Vehicular Ad hoc Network (VANET) in real-time communication. More specifically, in an urban environment, with high mobility among vehicles, a vehicle's status from the transmitter can instantly trigger from line of sight to non-line of sight, which may cause loss of real-time communication. In order to overcome this, a deterministic signal propagation model is required, which has less complexity and more feasibility of implementation. Hence, we propose a realistic path loss model which adopts ray tracing technique for VANET in a grid urban environment with less computational complexity. To evaluate the model, it is applied to a vehicular simulation scenario. The results obtained are compared with different path loss models in the same scenario based on path loss value and application layer performance analysis. The proposed path loss model provides higher loss value in dB compared to other models. Nevertheless, the performance of vehicle-vehicle communication, which is evaluated by the packet delivery ratio with different vehicle transmitter density verifies improvement in real-time vehicle-vehicle communication. In conclusion, we present a realistic path loss model that improves vehicle-vehicle wireless real-time communication in the grid urban environment.
