Understanding the interactions between earth materials and fluids is essential for studying the diverse geological processes in the Earth's surface and interior. In order to better understand the interactions between earth materials and fluids, we explore the effect of specific surface area and porosity on structural parameters of pore structures. We obtained 3D pore structures, using random packing simulations of porous media composed of single sized spheres with varying the particle size and porosity, and then we analyzed configurational entropy for 2D cross sections of porous media and cube counting fractal dimension for 3D porous networks. The results of the configurational entropy analysis show that the entropy length decreases from 0.8 to 0.2 with increasing specific surface area from 2.4 to $8.3mm^2/mm^3$, and the maximum configurational entropy increases from 0.94 to 0.99 with increasing porosity from 0.33 to 0.46. On the basis of the strong correlation between the liquid volume fraction (i.e., porosity) and configurational entropy, we suggest that elastic properties and viscosity of mantle melts can be expressed using configurational entropy. The results of the cube counting fractal dimension analysis show that cube counting fractal dimension increases with increasing porosity at constant specific surface area, and increases from 2.65 to 2.98 with increasing specific surface area from 2.4 to $8.3mm^2/mm^3$. On the basis of the strong correlation among cube counting fractal dimension, specific surface area, and porosity, we suggest that seismic wave attenuation and structural disorder in fluid-rock-melt composites can be described using cube counting fractal dimension.

In this paper, we propose a new technology mapping algorithm for CPLD consider area under time constraint(TMFCPLD). This technology mapping algorithm detect feedbacks from boolean networks, then variables that have feedback are replaced to temporary variables. Creating the temporary variables transform sequential circuit to combinational circuit. The transformed circuits are represented to DAG. After traversing all nodes in DAG, the nodes that have output edges more than two are replicated and reconstructed to fanout free tree. This method is for reason to reduce area and improve total run time of circuits by TEMPLA proposed previously. Using time constraints and delay time of device, the number of graph partitionable multi-level is decided. Initial cost of each node are the number of OR-terms that it have. Among mappable clusters, clusters of which the number of multi-level is least is selected, and the graph is partitioned. Several nodes in partitioned clusters are merged by collapsing, and are fitted to the number of OR-terms in a given CLB by bin packing. Proposed algorithm have been applied to MCNC logic synthesis benchmark circuits, and have reduced the number of CLBs by 62.2% than those of DDMAP. And reduced the number of CLBs by 17.6% than those of TEMPLA, and reduced the number of CLBs by 4.7% than those of TMCPLD. This results will give much efficiency to technology mapping for CPLDs.

We have successfully demonstrated the inkjet printing process to fabricate $Al_2O_3$ thick films without a high temperature sintering process. A single solvent system had a coffee ring pattern after printing of $Al_2O_3$ dot, line and area. In order to fabricate the smooth surface of $Al_2O_3$ thick film, we have introduced a co-solvent system which has nano-sized $Al_2O_3$ powders in the mixture of Ethylene glycol monomethyl ester and Di propylene glycol methyl ether. This co-solvent system approached a uniform and dense deposition of $Al_2O_3$ powders on the substrate. The packing density of inkjet-printed $Al_2O_3$ films is more than 70% which is very high compared to the value obtained from the films synthesized by other conventional methods such as casting processes. The characterization of the inkjet-printed $Al_2O_3$ films has been implemented to investigate its thickness and roughness. Also the dielectric loss of the films has been measured to understand the feasibility of its application to 3D integration package substrate.

There are many vessels in oral and maxillofacial region. Therefore blood oozing is a frequent findings in this area when operation takes place. Beacuse of this, most oral and maxillofacial surgeons as well as operators of this region usually use bosmine soaked gauze for oozing control during operation. Theoretically overdose of systemic epiniephrine(bosmine) may lead to pulmonary edema due to secondary systemic volume overload. For this reason, oral and maxillofacial surgeons should give more attention to the use of bosmine soaked gauze. In spite of this possibility, epinephrine induced pulmonary edema using bosmine soaked gauze has not been reported. We experienced one case of pulmonary edema which was induced by epinephrine overdose by bosmine soaked gauze that has not been diluted by mistake in preparing bosmine soaked gauze. The authuors report a case with review of literature.

Monodispersed colloidal silica was prepared by Stober process. We have synthesized monodispersed colloidal silica of carious sizes (100 nm, 200 nm, 300 nm) by controlling volume ratios of TEOS(Tetraethylorthosilicate), $NH_4OH$, Ethanol and D. I. water. Shape and monodispersity of the synthesized colloidal particles were observed by Scanning Electron Microscopy(SEM) and laser light scattering particle analyzer. Self-assembled monolayer of monodispersed colloids was achieved by dipping Si substrate into a well-dispersed silica suspension. It was determined that uniformity and spatial extent of the self-assemble monolayer of monodispersed colloids are significantly influenced by the experimental parameters such as concentration, pH and surface tension of the colloidal suspension. We have observed a hexagonally well-ordered packing colloidal monolayer in a relatively large area (1.5 mm ${\times}$ 1.5 mm) as confirmed by SEM.

In this study, advanced model for quality control of oriental medicine and methods for practice was suggested through literature inspection, analysis of foreign system such as China and Japan, survey analysis on the current system, quality analysis of randomly selected oriental medicine samples, and intensive discussions among oriental medicine specialists 1. The quality of oriental medicine should be consistently controlled by Ministry of Health and Welfare form its cultivation or import to its circulation process to final consumer 2. All oriental medicines should be circulated as standardized goods which should be marked by lot numbers. The packing material and Packing size should be liberalized. The qualify should be differentialized though free competition among makers. 3. Realistic standards for pesticide, heavy metal and decolorant should be established though long-term monitoring process according to each oriental medicine's origin, therapeutic part, cultivation area, harvesting time, and cultivation method. 4. Ministry of Health and Welfare should educate oriental medicine's quality control personnel regularly or on demand, and establish specialist pool. Ministry of Health and Welfare should also establish oriental medicine information system to provide informations about quality of domestic or foreign oriental medicinal raw materials. 5. The government should provide information about foreign of oriental medicine market to importers. Quality of imported oriental medicine should be inspected before its customs clearance, and all imported oriental medicine should be circulated by standardized oriental medicine makers. 6. Oriental medicine's pharmacopoeia should be Published to provide quality standard of oriental medicine and improve it.

In order to determine the optimmum harvest time of Citrus unshiu Marc. var. miyagawa and C. unshiu Marc. var. okitsu produced in Cheju, citrus fruits sampled at packing houses or harvested directly on citrus tree in south and north area of Cheju were analyzed. The fruits were grown in size till middle of October, and soluble solids were increased continuously after that. The fruits size were different by positional directions on the tree, the quality of citrus fruits in central southern positions on the tree was good for fresh fruit consumptions. Compared with only the quality of citrus fruits as a factor of soluble solids, total sugar, pH, and color index, the optimum harvest time were supposed to be reasonable at late of November for C. unshiu Marc. var. okitsu, and at early of December for C. unshiu Marc. var. miyagawa. The results obtained from citrus fruits sampled at packing houses were supposed to be not suitable for determing the optimum harvest time, because of storage after harvest at ordinary harvesting time.

The wave power, extracted from a circular array of small power buoys, is investigated under the potential theory. It is assumed that the buoy's radius, the draft, and the separation distance are much smaller than the water depth, the wave length, and the radius of a circular deployment area. The boundary value problem involving the macro-scale boundary condition on the mean surface covered by buoys is solved using the eigenfunction expansion method. The capture width, which is defined as the ratio of the extracted power to the wave power per unit length of the incident wave crest, is assessed for various combinations of packing ratio, radius of a circular array, and PTO damping coefficient. It is found that the circular array deployment is more effective in the viewpoint of efficiency than the single large buoy of the same total displaced volume.

Due to development of environment of wireless Internet, location based services on the basis of spatial data have been increased such as real time traffic information as well as CNS(Car Navigation System) to provide mobile user with route guidance to the destination. However, the current application adopting the file-based system has limitation of managing and storing the huge amount of spatial data. In order to supplement this challenge, research which is capable of managing large amounts of spatial data based on embedded database system is surely demanded. For this reason, this study aims to suggest the lossless compression technique by using the hybrid approach of BytePacking and Lempel-Ziv which can be applicable in DBMS so as to save a mass spatial data efficiently. We apply the proposed compression technique to actual the Seoul and Inchcon metropolitan area and compared the existing method with suggested one using the same data through analyzing the query processing duration until the reconstruction. As a result of comparison, we have come to the conclusion that suggested technique is far more performance on spatial data demanding high location accuracy than the previous techniques.

We investigated the changes of (U, Ce)$O_2$ powder characteristics with $CeO_2$ contents and ball-milling time and then studied on the sintering properties with those (U, Ce)$O_2$ powder characteristics. From the results of this study, it was concluded that the longer ball-milling time of (U, Ce)$O_2$ powder was, the finer its particle size was. Green and sintered densities were decreased with $CeO_2$ contensts increase. And also $CeO_2$ was recongized deteriorating oxide on the $UO_2$ sintering. In case of the lOwt. % $CeO_2$ contents, (U, Ce)$O_2$ sintered pellet which was made of ball-milled powder for 4 hours had few pores and its pores got near to the sphere. And its sintered density had the highest. Because its powder had higher surface area and its packing ratio was appropriated much better than others.
