$YBaCo_2O_{5+{\delta}}$ oxide was synthesized by solid state reaction and a typical dense membrane has been prepared using as-prepared powder by unilateral pressing and sintering at $1,180^{\circ}C$. The $YBaCo_2O_{5+{\delta}}$ membraneswas analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). XRD analysis showed the double layered perovskite structure was observed over $1,150^{\circ}C$ without impurities. Oxygen permeation was measured in the temperature range from 750 to $950^{\circ}C$ according to oxygen partial pressure difference between feed and permeation side. The oxygen permeation flux increased with increasing temperature and oxygen partial pressure and the maximum oxygen flux of $YBaCo_2O_{5+{\delta}}$ membrane with 1.0 mm thickness was about 0.15 mL/$cm^2{\cdot}min$ at $950^{\circ}C$ and $PO_2$ = 0.42 atm. The activation energy for oxygen permeation decreased with decreasing oxygen partial pressure to be 76.0 kJ/mol at the condition of $PO_2$ = 0.21 atm.

Limonene is orange flavored natural material that is mainly contained in mandarine and lemon peels. D-limonene was extracted from cold-storaged mandarine peel by using Soxhlet extractor at $120^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours with ethanol as solvent. Henry constants of d-limonene and impurity were calculated as $H_{Lim}=8.55$ and $H_{imp}=0.223$ from the result of HPLC analysis. 4-bed SMB of limonene simulation with $0.46{\times}25cm$ columns was conducted by using Aspen chromatography program. Then effective condition for purity was found by changing $m_2$ and $m_3$ values in triangle diagram. The highest purity was 98.59% at $m_2=2.57$, $m_3=9.55$. For this case, feed, desorbent, extract, and raffinate flow rates were 1 mL/min, 1.19 mL/min, 0.857 mL/min and 1.34 mL/min, respectively. Scale-up simulation was also conducted by increasing column diameter from 0.46 cm to 1.6 cm for getting the same efficiency. The increased flow rates were 12 mL/min, 14 mL/min, 10 mL/min, and 16 mL/min for feed, desorbent, extract, and raffinate. It was possible to scale-up with maintaining same limonene purity because linear isotherms of limonene and impurity were assumed.

Turmeric is a medicinal herb with various pharmacological activities. Curcumin, demethoxycurcumin(DMC) and bisdemethoxycurcumin(BDMC) were extracted from turmeric by dipping and ultrasonic wave method. And extraction efficiency was identified using solid phase extraction(SPE). The extracted sample were simultaneously separated and analyzed from three kinds of commercial $C_{18}$ reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography using water and acetonitrile as mobile phase with isocratic elution mode. Flow rate 1.0mL/min, injection volume $10{\mu}L$ and column oven temperature $40^{\circ}C$ at 425nm wavelength has been conducted. From the experimental results, the optimum mobile phase composition of water/acetonitrile 50/50vol% using RS tech column. It is evident that the amount of curcuminoids extracted(extraction time 4h) by 100% MeOH was higher than any aqueous MeOH composition. Finally, in 100% water extraction, the amount(mAU${\times}$mim) of curcuminoids extracted by SPE was 14.3 and 24.5 times respectively higher than ultrasonic wave and dipping method. The shown results can be applied as sources for pharmaceuticals and functional material.

Recently, most enterprises are having a knowlege management boom. A number of books associated with the knowlege management are being published, countless public seminars are held, and many research councils have been organized studying it formally or informally as if not importing the system is like falling behind a fashion. However, there are not many cases that achieved success by constructing the system of knowledge management. Then, why the knowledge management is not so much effective despite so many voices wanting the change of management system and a lot of public lectures about it? I guess the reason is that most companies do not have concrete methodology. Seeing a result of a survey which reported that with spread of venture boom and successful examples being known widely, the outflow of precious human resources is accelerated and a large number of employees of conglomerates have already resigned or are considering separation from their positions, we can realize that are occurring a change which can be nearly called severance in an occupational view and an organization culture. The preference to a large enterprise or a public institution of labor is low today and the notion about a lifelong job is regarded as past remains. As for this, it could be said that the social atmosphere that pursued the stability of a job has been changed to the practical one that attaches importance to ability and pay. The way of thinking of employees has been changed while established organizations cannot satisfy their desire and this explains why important members of a company are flown out. The reason why superior human resources move to venture businesses is that they can do their likable work and also prove their ability as well as unconventional rewards. Although existing companies are trying to preserve important human resources through performance compensating stock option, temporary patching up of personnel management cannot retard the rushing wind of foundation and the outflow of labor. On the contrary, clumsy import of performance-based reward system not only fails to hire superior labor power but also can bring about a sense of incompatibility and conflicts among the remaining employees. Therefore, this thesis, focusing on how to choose, develop, and maintain the human resources, will suggest a future-aiming human resources management model of Korean enterprises after comparing and analyzing the actual condition of domestic companies and the trends of advanced corportaions.

In previous studies concerning turnover, they argue individual stock's turnover must be identical to market portfolio's turnover under one condition where 2 funds separation theorem holds. In this kind of world, all market participants hold and trade the same portfolio and this should be only market portfolio. If one's trading portfolio's shape is different from market portfolio's, this would mean he or she has an advantage over others in information and this kind of information would be private. In accordance with this theory, we develop a metric which measures how far one's trading portfolio from market's and name it as Stock Selection by Investor(SSI). We apply this measurement to the various types of investor groups classified as individual, institutional and foreign who participate in Korea stock market. To test the validity of measure, we regress price ratio on this measurement using SUR method. As a result, individual investor group shows large number in SSI, but the coefficient in regression is not significant and economically meaningless. In case of institutional investor group, the coefficient proves to be significantly negative. We can infer from this fact that their trading is somehow far from informed trading. Stock selection activity by foreign investor groups proves to be informed trading by showing significantly positive coefficient and the magnitude of coefficient is economically meaningful, especially in sell activity.

As computer performance improves, research using deep learning are being actively carried out in various fields. Recently, deep learning technology has been applying to the safety evaluation for structures. In particular, the internal blades of a turbine structure requires experienced experts and considerable time to detect surface damages because of the difficulty of separation of the blades from the structure and the dark environmental condition. This study proposes a Faster R-CNN deep learning model that can detect surface damages on the internal blades, which is one of the primary elements of the turbine structure. The deep learning model was trained using image data with dent and punch damages. The image data was also expanded using image filtering and image data generator techniques. As a result, the deep learning model showed 96.1% accuracy, 95.3% recall, and 96% precision. The value of the recall means that the proposed deep learning model could not detect the blade damages for 4.7%. The performance of the proposed damage detection system can be further improved by collecting and extending damage images in various environments, and finally it can be applicable for turbine engine maintenance.

Brain tumors or gliomas are fatal cancer species with high recurrence rates due to their strong invasiveness. Therefore, the goal of surgery is complete tumor resection. However, the surgery is difficult to distinguish the border because tumors and blood vessels have the same color tone and shape. The fluorescein sodium is used as a fluorescence contrast agent for boundary separation. When the external light source is irradiated, yellow fluorescence is expressed in the tumor, which helps distinguish between blood vessels and tumor boundaries. But, the fluorescence expression of fluorescence sodium depends on the concentration of fluorescein sodium and such analytical data is insufficient. The unclear fluorescence can obscure the boundaries between blood vessels and tumors. In addition, reduce the efficiency of fluorescence sodium use. This paper proposes a protocol of concentration range for fluorescence expression conditions. Fluorescent expression was observed using a near-infrared (NIR) color camera with corresponding dilution using normal saline in 1 ml microtube. The flunoresence emission density range is 1.00 mM to 0.15 mM. The fluorescence emission begin to 1.00 mM and the 0.15 mM discolor. The discolor is difficult to fluorescence emission condition obserbation. Thus, the maximum density range of the bright fluoresecein is 0.15 mM to 0.30 mM. When the concentration range of fluorescein sodium is analyzed based on the gradient of fluorescence expression and the power measurement, the brightest fluorescence is expected to facilitate the complete resection of the tumor. For the concentration range protocol, setting concentration ranges and analyzing fluorescence expression image according to saturation and brightness to find optimal fluorescence concentration are important. Concentration range protocols for fluorescence expression conditions can be used to find optimal concentrations of substances whose expression pattern varies with concentration ranges. This study is expected to be helpful in the boundary classification and resection of brain tumors and glioma.

This study was carried out to investigate the optimum leaching conditions for the sulfation and water leaching, and separation of cerium from rare earth elements in leached solution by acid-adjusting method. The optimum conditions for the sulfation and water leaching from bastnasite concentrates are that the equivalent ration of sulfuric acid to concentrates is 2.5, calcination temperature and time are $600^{\circ}C$ and 2 hrs respectively, and the pulp density in the water leaching is 9.1%. The yield of rare earth oxide is about 93% at the above condition. The process of recovery of cerium hydroxide from leached solution by acid-adjusting method was carried out as following steps. The first step is the oxidation of the solution at pH 5 by using twice the equivalent of $H_2O_2$ solution as an oxidant. The second step is the precipitation to obtain cerium complex salt and cerium hydroxide after lowering the solution to pH 2. The last step is the oxidation-precipitation by using equivalent of $H_2O_2$ solution. From these results, it was possible to prepare cerium hydroxide with the yield of 60% and the quality of 80%.

The effect of mixing ratio of materials and their retort processing conditions on the physical properties and preference of oyster porridge were investigated. Rice gave adequate viscosity (about 800 cp) to the porridge as it was used 10～12% level and half of it was ground. Potato starch, waxy corn starch, and Perfectamyl AC showed small variation in viscosity unrelated to the temperature, that was a good condition for high quality porridge. Especially, waxy corn starch had a good property for retort porridge because its viscosity was maintained high during the processing and decreased to preferable one after processing. Purity CSC, modified starch gave gum-like texture and didn't cause water-separation much after freezing and thawing treatment of the porridge. Therefore, it was good for enhancing the physical property of the porridge as a co-additive of waxy corn starch when it was used at quarter level of waxy corn starch. Xanthan gum increased dispersibility of materials and it was useful for stabilizing physical quality of the porridge without affecting preference when it was used below 0.2% concentration. As a result, the optimal material-mixing ratio was determined as rice 10% (50% of it was ground), waxy corn starch 1.5%, Purity CSC 0.5%, xmthan gum 0.2%, salt 0.3%, and water 87.5%. Oyster's porridge, retort processed with this recipe, showed stable physical property after 6 month storage at room temperature.

Preparation for the simplified separation of chitosandoligosaccharides from enzymatic hydrolysate was investigated. Two different types of chitosan beads as substrate were prepared as organic-based bead by W/O emulsion method and water-based bead by alkaline treatement. The average size of organic-based bead was $200{\mu}m$, and that of water based beads were $4000{\mu}m$, $100{\mu}m$, $30{\mu}m$, in diameter respectively. Enzyme stability was maintained over 80% at PH 6 after 24 hours. The optimal condition for the production of chitosanoligosaccharides was at pH 6.0, $50^{\circ}C$ and 40U (200U/g-chitosan) According to final oligosaccharide concentration water-based bed showed the similar result with that of organic-based bead even through it had smaller surface area attacked by chitosanse than that of organic-based bead. It is probable that the structure of water-based chitosan bead was looser than that of organic-based bead so enzyme penetrated easily into the bead structure. For the oligosaccharide production versus surface area the different size of water-based beads was investigated, Maxiaml production yield was observed in the $30{\mu}m$ beads. Consequently the water-based chitosan bead was better than the organic-based bead in this reaction system.
