Markov envelope as a theoretical solution of the parabolic wave equation with Markov approximation for the von Kármán type random medium is studied and approximated with the convolution of two probability density functions (pdf) of normal and gamma distributions considering the previous studies on the applications of Radiative Transfer Theory (RTT) and the analysis results of earthquake records. Through the approximation with gamma pdf, the constant shape parameter of 2 was determined regardless of the source distance r_o. This finding means that the scattering process has the property of an inhomogeneous single-scattering Poisson process, unlike the previous studies, which resulted in a homogeneous multiple-scattering Poisson process. Approximated Markov envelope can be treated as the normalized mean square (MS) envelope for ground acceleration because of the flat source Fourier spectrum. Based on such characteristics, the path duration is estimated from the approximated MS envelope and compared to the empirical formula derived by Boore and Thompson. The results clearly show that the path duration increases proportionately to r_o^1/2-r_o², and the peak value of the RMS envelope is attenuated by exp (-0.0033r_o), excluding the geometrical attenuation. The attenuation slope for r_o≤100 km is quite similar to that of effective attenuation for shallow crustal earthquakes, and it may be difficult to distinguish the contribution of intrinsic attenuation from effective attenuation. Slowly varying dispersive delay, also called the medium effect, represented by regular pdf, governs the path duration for the source distance shorter than 100 km. Moreover, the diffraction term, also called the distance effect because of scattering, fully controls the path duration beyond the source distance of 300 km and has a steep gradient compared to the medium effect. Source distance 100-300 km is a transition range of the path duration governing effect from random medium to distance. This means that the scattering may not be the prime cause of peak attenuation and envelope broadening for the source distance of less than 200 km. Furthermore, it is also shown that normal distribution is appropriate for the probability distribution of phase difference, as asserted in the previous studies.

The quality of meat is highly variable in many properties. This variability originates from both animal production and meat processing. At the pre-slaughter stage, animal factors such as breed, sex, age contribute to this variability. Environmental factors include feeding, rearing, transport and conditions just before slaughter (Hildrum et al., 1995). Meat can be presented in a variety of forms, each offering different opportunities for adulteration and contamination. This has imposed great pressure on the food manufacturing industry to guarantee the safety of meat. Tissue and muscle speciation of flesh foods, as well as speciation of animal derived by-products fed to all classes of domestic animals, are now perhaps the most important uncertainty which the food industry must resolve to allay consumer concern. Recently, there is a demand for rapid and low cost methods of direct quality measurements in both food and food ingredients (including high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), thin layer chromatography (TLC), enzymatic and inmunological tests (e.g. ELISA test) and physical tests) to establish their authenticity and hence guarantee the quality of products manufactured for consumers (Holland et al., 1998). The use of Near Infrared Reflectance Spectroscopy (NIRS) for the rapid, precise and non-destructive analysis of a wide range of organic materials has been comprehensively documented (Osborne et at., 1993). Most of the established methods have involved the development of NIRS calibrations for the quantitative prediction of composition in meat (Ben-Gera and Norris, 1968; Lanza, 1983; Clark and Short, 1994). This was a rational strategy to pursue during the initial stages of its application, given the type of equipment available, the state of development of the emerging discipline of chemometrics and the overwhelming commercial interest in solving such problems (Downey, 1994). One of the advantages of NIRS technology is not only to assess chemical structures through the analysis of the molecular bonds in the near infrared spectrum, but also to build an optical model characteristic of the sample which behaves like the “finger print” of the sample. This opens the possibility of using spectra to determine complex attributes of organic structures, which are related to molecular chromophores, organoleptic scores and sensory characteristics (Hildrum et al., 1994, 1995; Park et al., 1998). In addition, the application of statistical packages like principal component or discriminant analysis provides the possibility to understand the optical properties of the sample and make a classification without the chemical information. The objectives of this present work were: (1) to examine two methods of sample presentation to the instrument (intact and minced) and (2) to explore the use of principal component analysis (PCA) and Soft Independent Modelling of class Analogy (SIMCA) to classify muscles by quality attributes. Seventy-eight (n: 78) beef muscles (m. longissimus dorsi) from Hereford breed of cattle were used. The samples were scanned in a NIRS monochromator instrument (NIR Systems 6500, Silver Spring, MD, USA) in reflectance mode (log 1/R). Both intact and minced presentation to the instrument were explored. Qualitative analysis of optical information through PCA and SIMCA analysis showed differences in muscles resulting from two different feeding systems.

온도에 따른 티타늄금속의 산화거동을 조사하기 위하여 금속시편을 각각의 온도($300{\sim}1000^{\circ}C$)에서 2시간 동안 가열한 후, 생성된 산화시편의 표면에 대하여 X-선 회절(XRD)분석, 주사전자현미경 (SEM)/energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) 분석과 감쇠된 전반사(ATR) Fourier 변환 적외선(FT-IR) 분광 분석을 수행하였다. $300^{\circ}C$에서 대기 중의 산소가 티타늄 금속(hexagonal) 표면층으로 확산되어 적외선 흡수띠가 검출되었으며 온도가 높아짐에 따라 확산되는 산소 양이 증가하여 적외선 흡수띠와 X-선 회절 피크의 이동(shift) 현상이 나타났고 $700^{\circ}C$에서 XRD에 의해 $Ti_3O$ (hexagonal)의 생성이 확인되었다. 티타늄 금속 표면에 $TiO_2$ (rutile, tetragonal) 산화층이 생성되기 시작한 온도는 $600^{\circ}C$ 이었으며 이때 두께가 $1{\mu}m$ 이하 수준이었으나 $700^{\circ}C$에서는 약 $2{\mu}m$로 두꺼워졌고 $1000^{\circ}C$에서는 약 $110{\mu}m$ 두께에 달했다. 또한 $900^{\circ}C$ 이상의 온도에서 $TiO_2$ (rutile) 산화층 표면은 (110) 면의 방향으로 결정이 성장하였다.

4H-SiC 기판 위의 Si 성장은 전력 반도체, 바이폴라 접합 트랜지스터 및 광전자 공학에서 매우 유용한 재료로서 광범위한 응용 분야를 가지고 있다. 그러나 Si와 4H-SiC 사이에 약 20 %의 격자 불일치로 인해 4H-SiC에서 매우 양질의 결정 Si를 성장시키는 것은 상당히 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 혼합 소스 수소화물 기상 에피택시 방법을 이용하여 4H-SiC 기판에서 성장한 Al 관련 나노 구조체 클러스터에 의한 육각형 Si 에피층의 성장을 보고한다. 4H-SiC 기판 위에 육각형 Si 에피층을 성장시키기 위해 먼저 Al 관련 나노 구조체 클러스터가 형성되고 Si 원자를 흡수하여 육각형 Si 에피층이 형성되는 과정을 관찰하였다. Al 관련 나노 구조체 클러스터와 육각형 Si 에피층에 대하여 FE-SEM 및 라만 스펙트럼 결과로부터 육각형 Si 에피층은 일반적인 입방정계 Si 구조와 다른 특성을 가지는 것으로 판단된다.

Todays, medium energy resolution detectors are preferably used in radioisotope identification devices(RID) in nuclear and radioactive material categorization. However, there is still a need to develop or enhance « automated identifiers » for the useful RID algorithms. To decide whether any material is SNM or NORM, a key parameter is the better energy resolution of the detector. Although masking, shielding and gain shift/stabilization and other affecting parameters on site are also important for successful operations, the suitability of the RID algorithm is also a critical point to enhance the identification reliability while extracting the features from the spectral analysis. In this study, a RID algorithm based on Bayesian statistical method has been modified for medium energy resolution detectors and applied to the uranium gamma-ray spectra taken by a LaBr3:Ce detector. The present Bayesian RID algorithm covers up to 2000 keV energy range. It uses the peak centroids, the peak areas from the measured gamma-ray spectra. The extraction features are derived from the peak-based Bayesian classifiers to estimate a posterior probability for each isotope in the ANSI library. The program operations were tested under a MATLAB platform. The present peak based Bayesian RID algorithm was validated by using single isotopes(²⁴¹Am, ⁵⁷Co, ¹³⁷Cs, ⁵⁴Mn, ⁶⁰Co), and then applied to five standard nuclear materials(0.32-4.51% at.²³⁵U), as well as natural U- and Th-ores. The ID performance of the RID algorithm was quantified in terms of F-score for each isotope. The posterior probability is calculated to be 54.5-74.4% for ²³⁸U and 4.7-10.5% for ²³⁵U in EC-NRM171 uranium materials. For the case of the more complex gamma-ray spectra from CRMs, the total scoring (ST) method was preferred for its ID performance evaluation. It was shown that the present peak based Bayesian RID algorithm can be applied to identify ²³⁵U and ²³⁸U isotopes in LEU or natural U-Th samples if a medium energy resolution detector is was in the measurements.

We present the analysis results of the simultaneous multifrequency observations of the blazar 4C +28.07. The observations were conducted by the Interferometric Monitoring of Gamma-ray Bright Active Galactic Nuclei (iMOGABA) program, which is a key science program of the Korean Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) Network (KVN). Observations of the iMOGABA program for 4C +28.07 were conducted from 16 January 2013 (MJD 56308) to 13 March 2020 (MJD 58921). We also used γ-ray data from the Fermi Large Array Telescope (Fermi-LAT) Light Curve Repository, covering the energy range from 100 MeV to 100 GeV. We divided the iMOGABA data and the Fermi-LAT data into five periods from 0 to 4, according to the prosody of the 22 GHz data and the presence or absence of the data. In order to investigate the characteristics of each period, the light curves were plotted and compared. However, a peak that formed a hill was observed earlier than the period of a strong γ-ray flare at 43-86 GHz in period 3 (MJD 57400-58100). Therefore, we assumed that the minimum total CLEANed flux density for each frequency was quiescent flux (S_q) in which the core of 4C +28.07 emitted the minimum, with the variable flux (S_var) obtained by subtracting S_q from the values of the total CLEANed flux density. We then compared the variability of the spectral indices (α) between adjacent frequencies through a spectral analysis. Most notably, α_22-43 showed optically thick spectra in the absence of a strong γ-ray flare, and when the flare appeared, α_22-43 became optically thinner. In order to find out the characteristics of the magnetic field in the variable region, the magnetic field strength in the synchrotron self-absorption (B_SSA) and the equipartition magnetic field strength (B_eq) were obtained. We found that B_SSA is largely consistent with B_eq within the uncertainty, implying that the SSA region in the source is not significantly deviated from the equipartition condition in the γ-ray quiescent periods.

In this study, it is aimed to investigate the vertical seismic performance of reinforced concrete (R/C) frame buildings in two different building stocks, one of which consists of those designed as per the previous Turkish Seismic Code (TSC-2007) that does not consider the vertical earthquake load, and the other of which consists of those designed as per the new Turkish Seismic Code (TSCB-2018) that considers the vertical earthquake load. For this aim, three R/C buildings with heights of 15 m, 24 m and 33 m are designed separately as per TSC-2007 and TSCB-2018 based on some limitations in terms of seismic zone, soil class and structural behavior factor (Rx/Ry) etc. The vertical earthquake motion effects are identified according to the linear time-history analyses (LTHA) that are performed separately for only horizontal (H) and combined horizontal+vertical (H+V) earthquake motions. LTHA is performed to predict how vertical earthquake motion affects the response of the designed buildings by comparing the linear response parameters of the base shear force, the base overturning, the base axial force, top-story vertical displacement. Nonlinear time-history analysis (NLTHA) is generally required for energy dissipative buildings, not required for design of buildings. In this study, the earthquake records are scaled to force the buildings in the linear range. Since nonlinear behavior is not expected from the buildings herein, the nonlinear time-history analysis (NLTHA) is not considered. Eleven earthquake acceleration records are considered by scaling them to the design spectrum given in TSCB-2018. The base shear force is obtained not to be affected from the combined H+V earthquake load for the buildings. The base overturning moment outcomes underline that the rigidity of the frame system in terms of the dimensions of the columns can be a critical parameter for the influence of the vertical earthquake motion on the buildings. In addition, the building stock from TSC-2007 is estimated to show better vertical earthquake performance than that of TSCB-2018. The vertical earthquake motion is found out to be highly effective on the base axial force of 33 m building rather than 15 m and 24 m buildings. Thus, the building height is a particularly important parameter for the base axial force. The percentage changes in the top-story vertical displacement of the buildings designed for both codes show an increase parallel to that in the base axial force results. To extrapolate more general results, it is clear to state that many buildings should be analyzed.

목적: 인공 환기요법 관련 폐렴은 중증 소아 환자에게 있어서 심각한 위협이 될 수 있다. 소아 환자에서 Stenotrophomonas maltophilia에 의한 인공 환기요법 관련 폐렴에 대한 연구는 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구는 소아 중환자에서 S. maltophilia에 의한 인공 환기요법 관련 폐렴의 임상적 특성을 알아보고자 하였다. 방법: 2008년 1월 1일부터 2012년 12월 31일까지 삼성서울병원 소아중환자실에 입원한 S. maltophilia로 인한 인공 환기요법 관련 폐렴에 걸린 18세 이하 소아들의 의무 기록을 기초로 한 후향적 연구를 시행하였다. 결과: S. maltophilia로 인한 인공 환기요법 관련 폐렴으로 진단 받은 총 31명의 환자가 연구 대상에 포함되었다. 연령 중앙값은 8개월(범위, 0.5개월-16.6세)이고, 남자는 13명(40.6%)이었다. 환자들의 만성질환 분포는 심혈관질환(n=11, 34.4%), 혈액종양질환(n=7, 25.0%), 신경질환(n=4, 12.5%), 호흡기질환(n=3, 9.4%) 그리고 기타(n=4, 12.5%)이었다. 인공 환기요법 관련 폐렴을 진단하기 전 인공 환기요법을 하였던 기간의 중앙값은 14일(범위, 4-256일)이었다. S. maltophilia 인공 환기요법 관련 폐렴후 30일 이내 사망률은 12.5% (4/32) 이었다. 결론: S. maltophilia는 중증 소아 환자에서 인공 환기요법 관련 폐렴의 원인균으로 반드시 고려되어야 할 대상이다. 경험적 광범위 베타-락탐 항생제를 사용하고 있음에도 불구하고 환자 상태가 나빠지고 있다면, 항생제 선택에서 S. maltophila의 감염을 고려해야 할 것으로 사료된다.
