Gold nanoparticles have recognized a promising drug carriers in many diseases. These nanoparticles could carry anti-inflammatory drugs in the case of muscle injury and for fatigue relief. On the other hand, specific surface of this kind of nanoparticles could be critical in amount of drug they could carry. Therefore, in this study, we explore different methodology and influencing parameters on the specific surface of gold nanoparticles. After specifying the main parameters, different machine learning and artificial neural network are adopted to model the effects of different parameters. Furthermore, response surface methodology is utilized to obtain a quadrilateral relationship between different parameters and specific surface. The results indicate that concentration of the gold salt solution is the most important parameter in increasing the size of gold nanoparticle and, as a consequence, increasing specific surface. Moreover, the ability of gold nanoparticles in prolonging retention of the drugs is discussed in detail.

지형 모델링은 사각그리드에 의한 방법과 불규칙 삼각망을 이용한 방법으로 나눌 수 있다. 특히 불규칙 삼각망에 의한 방법은 적은 지형 데이터로써 지형의 특징을 잘 표현할 수 있고 렌더링시간을 단축시킬 수 있어 널리 사용되고 있다. 이러한 불규칙 삼각망을 만들기 위해서는 의미점 추출과정과 삼각형화 과정이 필요하다. 본 논문은 이러한 전처리 작업 중 의미점 추출과정의 개선에 중점을 두었다. 의미점을 추출하는 방법에는 8방향 이웃점 검사 방법과 이를 변형한 방법들이 많이 사용되고 있다. 또한 다각형 감소 기법을 응용하여 불필요한 점들을 제거하는 방법도 제안되고 있다. 그중 기본적으로 사용하는 8방향 이웃점 검사 방법을 이용한 의미점 추출 방법은 필요 없는 점들을 추출한다는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해서 지형 단면을 이용한 의미점 추출방법을 제안한다. 이 방법은 기존의 방법보다 의미점 추출 시간이 빠르고 적은 지형 자료로 보다 정확한 특징점을 추출할 수 없다.

광물조성과 노출표면적(exposed surface area)은 토양풍화속도 계산모델에 영향을 미치는 중요한 요인들이다. PROFILE 등 기존의 풍화속도 계산모델에서는 입도분석자료에 기초한 기하학적 계산값이나 $N_2$-BET 비표면적 등을 그대로 노출표면적으로 적용하고 있다. 그러나, 토양은 광물과 유기물의 혼합체로써 노출표면적을 정확히 구하기는 상당히 어려운 것이 사실이다. 본 연구에서는 유기물의 영향에 의한 토양광물의 노출표면적변화를 토양 깊이에 따른 peroxidation 전후의 N2-BET 비표면적값을 통해 살펴보고, 토양칼럼실험을 이용하여 풍화속도의 차이를 살펴보았다. 실험결과 peroxidation 후의 $N_2$-BET 비표면적은 1.68~4.87 $m^2$/g의 범위에서 증가하였으며, 깊이에 따라 증가하는 범위가 감소하는 경향을 보여주었다 이는 부식산 등 토양표면에 농집되어 존재하는 다양한 형태의 유기산 등이 광물의 노출표면적을 감소시키고 있다는 것을 의미한다고 할 수 있다 기존의 토양풍화속도 모델에서 토양광물 노출표면적변화 계산에 있어서 광물-유기산간의 결합에 의한 영향을 결합세기 측면에서 고려하고 정량화 하는 것이 향후과제라고 생각된다.

Activated carbons (ACs) are considered important electrode materials for supercapacitors because their large specific surface areas lead to high charging capacities. In the conventional synthesis of ACs, a substantial amount of carbon is lost during carbonization of a precursor. The development of a method to synthesize ACs in high yield would lower their manufacturing cost. Here, we demonstrate the synthesis of high-specific-surface-area NaOH-AC from carbon prepared via a hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) route, with a higher yield than that achieved through conventional pyrolysis carbonization. The amorphous carbon was derived from HTC of sugar and subsequently activated at 800℃ with various NaOH etchant/C ratios under a N₂ atmosphere. The AC prepared at 4:1 NaOH/C exhibited the highest surface area (as high as 2,918 ㎡ g^-1) and the highest specific capacitance (157 F g^-1 in 1 M aqueous Na₂SO₄ electrolyte solution) among the NaOH-AC samples prepared in this work. On the basis of their high specific capacitance, the NaOH-ACs prepared from HTC sugar are suitable for use as electrode materials for supercapacitors.

Cell therapeutic agents for treating degenerative brain diseases using neural stem cells are actively being developed. However, few systems have been developed to monitor in real time whether the transplanted neural stem cells are actually differentiated into neurons. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a technology capable of specifically monitoring neuronal differentiation in vivo. In this study, we established a system that expresses cell membrane-targeting red fluorescent protein under control of the Synapsin promoter in order to specifically monitor differentiation from neural stem cells into neurons. In order to overcome the weak expression level of the tissue-specific promoter system, the partial 5' UTR sequence of Creb was added for efficient expression of the cell surface-specific antigen. This system was able to track functional neuronal differentiation of neural stem cells transplanted in vivo, which will help improve stem cell therapies.

Since passenger cars require five wheels including a spare, the weight reduction of wheels without sacrificing performance is important. Recently, the structured components of cars made of steel are replaced by composites. plastics and other nonmetallic materials such as aluminum and magnesium for weight reduction. From these new tried materials are most promising due to their high specific stiffness and specific strength. The composites manufactured by resin transfer molding (RTM) process has not only low cost for the manufacturing but also reduces the lead time and development because the molds for RTM is easy to manufacture. In this work, composite wheels for passenger cars were designed and manufactured by RTM process. Since surface quality of wheels is important for passenger cars, the optimal stacking sequence for composite wheels was selected considering surface quality and mechanical properties. Also, the manufacturing method for the composite mold was depicted.

The electrochemical properties of electric double layer capacitor(EDLC) was studied by controlling pore size distribution and specific surface area of the activated carbon fiber(ACF). The mesoporous ACF, which was prepared by the iron exchange method, showed the tendency of increasing average pore size and decreasing total surface area. The mesoporous ACF (surface area = 2225 $m^2$/g, pore size=1.93 nm) showed increased mesopore(pore size=1~3nm) volume from 0.055 cc/g to 0.408 cc/g compared to its raw ACF. The charging capacity of the EDLC which uses the prepared mesoporous ACF also increased from 0.39 F/$cm^2$ to 0.55 F/$cm^2$. From these results, it can be known that the electrochemical properties of EDLC are mainly dependent on the specific surface area, but above the surface area 2200 $m^2$/g, it is the mesopore volume that affects the performance of the capacitor considerably. Because the increased mesopore volume results in a decreased ion mobility resistance, the charge capacitance is enhanced.

The porosity (including the specific surface area and pore volume-diameter distribution) of montmorillonitic soft rock (MSR) was studied experimentally with an electrochemical treatment, based on which the change in porosity was further analyzed from the perspective of its electrokinetic potential (${\zeta}$ potential) and the isoelectric point of the electric double layer on the surface of the soft rock particles. The variation between the ${\zeta}$ potential and porosity was summarized, and used to demonstrate that the properties of softening, degradation in water, swelling, and disintegration of MSR can be modified by electrochemical treatment. The following conclusions were drawn. The specific surface area and total pore volume decreased, whereas the average pore diameter increased after electrochemical modification. The reduction in the specific surface area indicates a reduction in the dispersibility and swelling-shrinking of the clay minerals. After modification, the ${\zeta}$ potential of the soft rock was positive in the anodic zone, there was no isoelectric point, and the rock had lost its properties of softening, degradation in water, swelling, and disintegration. The ${\zeta}$ potential increased in the intermediate and cathodic zones, the isoelectric point was reduced or unchanged, and the rock properties are reduced. When the ${\zeta}$ potential is increased, the specific surface area and the total pore volume were reduced according to the negative exponent law, and the average pore diameter increased according to the exponent law.

In this paper, we proposed the recognition method that automatically extracts cracks from a surface image acquired by a digital camera and recognizes the directions (horizontal, vertical, -45 degree, and 45 degree) of cracks using the fuzzy single layer perceptron. We compensate an effect of light on a concrete surface image by applying the closing operation, which is one of the morphological techniques, extract the edges of cracks by Sobel masking, and binarize the image by applying the iterated binarization technique. Two times of noise reduction are applied to the binary image for effective noise elimination. After the specific regions of cracks are automatically extracted from the preprocessed image by applying Glassfire labeling algorithm to the extracted crack image, the cracks of the specific region are enlarged or reduced to $30{\times}30$ pixels and then used as input patterns to the fuzzy single layer perceptron. The experiments using concrete crack images showed that the cracks in the concrete crack images were effectively extracted and the fuzzy single layer perceptron was effective in the recognition of the extracted cracks directions.
