  • 화석 연료의 연소 과정에서 발생하는 그을음 입자의 형상은 작은 구형입자들이 군집체를 이루고 있는 프랙탈 형상을 하고 있기에 기존 Rayleigh나 Mie 탄성 광 산란 이론으로 분석하는 것에는 한계가 있다. 본 논문에서는 Rayleigh-Debye Gans(RDG) 산란 이론을 적용하여 프랙탈 차원을 가지는 미세 입자의 형상을 효과적으로 해석할 수 있는 과정을 자세히 묘사하였다. 이소옥탄 확산 화염에서 발생하는 그을음 입자를 열 영동 채취법을 이용하여 채집한 후, 투과전자현미경을 이용하여 그을음 입자의 형상을 관찰하였다. RDG 산란 이론을 적용하여, 그을음 입자의 프랙탈 형상을 조사 하였고, 그을음 개별 입자의 직경, 입자 수밀도 및 부피 분율을 산출하였다. 이러한 결과들은 그을음의 성장 과정에서는 뚜렷한 증감 경향을 보이진 않았으나, 그을음 산화 과정에선 전부 뚜렷하게 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 본 연구에서 RDG 산란 이론을 이용하여 도출한 그을음 군칩체의 프랙탈 차원은 약 1.82로 이는 기존의 유사연구 결과와 동일하며, 화석연료의 종류에 상관없이 생성된 모든 그을음 입자에 동일한 값을 갖는 것으로 사료된다.

  • PURPOSE. The objectives of the current study were to estimate the influence of self-reinforced hollow structures with a graded density on the dimensional accuracy, weight, and mechanical properties of Co-Cr objects printed with the direct metal laser sintering (DMLS) technique. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Sixty-five dog-bone samples were manufactured to evaluate the dimensional accuracy of printing, weight, and tensile properties of DMLS printed Co-Cr. They were divided into Group 1 (control) (n = 5), Group 2, 3, and 4 with incorporated hollow structures based on (spherical, elliptical, and diamond) shapes; they were subdivided into subgroups (n = 5) according to the volumetric reduction (10%, 15%, 20% and 25%). Radiographic imaging and microscopic analysis of the fractographs were conducted to validate the created geometries; the dimensional accuracy, weight, yield tensile strength, and modulus of elasticity were calculated. The data were estimated by one-way ANOVA and Duncan's tests at P < .05. RESULTS. The accuracy test showed an insignificant difference in the x, y, z directions in all printed groups. The weight was significantly reduced proportionally to the reduced volume fraction. The yield strength and elastic modulus of the control group and Group 2 at 10% volume reduction were comparable and significantly higher than the other subgroups. CONCLUSION. The printing accuracy was not affected by the presence or type of the hollow geometry. The weight of Group 2 at 10% reduction was significantly lower than that of the control group. The yield strength and elastic modulus of the Group 2 at a 10% reduction showed means equivalent to the compact objects and were significantly higher than other subgroups.

  • 해부학적으로 단순한 수학적인형팬텀의 한계를 극복하기 위한 voxel 머리팬텀을 제작하고 BNCT(Boron Neutron Capture Therapy) 시행 시 선량분포를 계산하였다. 일반목적 몬테칼로 코드인 MCNP4B의 반복구조 알고리즘을 이용하여 voxel 몬테칼로 계산체계를 수립하였고 두 가지 물질로 구성된 예시적 voxel 팬텀과 기하체조합팬텀의 계산값 비교를 통해 계산체계를 검증하였다. 미국 NLM(National Library of Medicine)에서 제공하는 VHP man 인체단층사진에 대한 분할 및 색인작업을 통해 voxel 머리팬텀을 제작하여 AP 및 PA 방향에서 입사하는 넓고 평행한 광자 및 중성자빔에 대한 선량값을 MIRD 팬텀의 계산값과 비교한 결과 중성자빔 AP 방향조사 시 MIRD 팬텀에서는 볼 수 없는 안구로 인한 중성자 감쇠현상을 확인할 수 있었다. 3차원 정밀계산이 필요한 BNCT 시술시 선량분포계산을 위해 뇌 중앙에 직경 5cm의 구형 뇌종양 체적을 정의하고 뇌와 종양의 붕소 함량을 조정하여 10keV 및 40keV 상부입사 중성자에 의한 장기별 흡수선량을 계산한 결과 종양에 $30{\mu}g/g$, 정상세포에 $3{\mu}g/g$의 붕소를 주입한 경우 붕소함량이 없을 때에 비해 2배 가량 큰 선량을 보였다. 본 연구를 통해 voxel몬테칼로기법을 이용한 선량평가체계를 수립하였고 정밀한 선량계산을 필요로 하는 치료방사선분야 선량계산에 실제 인체에 가까운 voxel팬텀의 응용가능성을 제시하였다.

  • Since the discovery of fullerenes as a class of nanostructure compounds, many potential applications have been suggested for their unusual structures and properties. The isolated pentagon rule (IPR) states that all pentagonal carbon rings are isolated in the most stable fullerene. Fullerenes $C_n$ are a class of spherical carbon allotrope group with unique properties. Electron transfer between fullerenes and other molecules is thought to involve the transfer of electrons between the molecules surrounding the fullerene cage. One class of electron transfer molecules is the methanofullerene derivatives ([6,6]-phenyl $C_{61}$-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM), 4-(2-ethylhexyloxy)-[6,6]-phenyl $C_{61}$-butyric acid methyl ester (p-EHO-PCBM), and 4-(2-ethylhexyloxy)-[6,6]-phenyl $C_{61}$-butyric acid (p-EHO-PCBA), 10-12). It has been determined that $C_{60}$ does not obey IPR. Supramolecular complexes 1-9 and 10-12 are shown to possess a previously unreported host.guest interaction for electron transfer processes. The unsaturated, cis-geometry, thiocrown ethers, (1-9) (described as [X-UT-Y], where X and Y indicate the numbers of carbon and sulfur atoms, respectively), are a group of crown ethers that display interesting physiochemical properties in the light of their conformational restriction compared with a corresponding saturated system, as well as the sizes of their cavities. Topological indices have been successfully used to construct mathematical methods that relate structural data to various chemical and physical properties. To establish a good relationship between the structures of 1-9 with 10-12, a new index is introduced, ${\mu}_{cs}$. This index is the ratio of the sum of the number of carbon atoms ($n_c$) and the number of sulfur atoms ($n_s$) to the product of these two numbers for 1-9. In this study, the relationships between this index and oxidation potential ($^{ox}E_1$) of 1-9, as well as the first to third free energies of electron transfer (${\Delta}G_{et(n)}$, for n = 1-3, which is given by the Rehm-Weller equation) between 1-9 and PCBM, p-EHO-PCBM, and p-EHO-PCBA (10-12) as [X-UT-Y]@R(where R is the adduct PCBM, p-EHO-PCBM, and p-EHO-PCBA group) (13-15) supramolecular complexes are presented and investigated.

  • Many models of globular cluster formation assume the presence of cold dense clouds in early universe. Here we re-examine the Fall & Rees (1985) model for formation of proto-globular cluster clouds (PGCCs) via thermal instabilities in a protogalactic halo. We first argue, based on the previous study of two-dimensional numerical simulations of thermally unstable clouds in a stratified halo of galaxy clusters by Real et al. (1991), that under the protogalactic environments only nonlinear (${\delta}{\ge}1$) density inhomogeneities can condense into PGCCs without being disrupted by the buoyancy-driven dynamical instabilities. We then carry out numerical simulations of the collapse of overdense douds in one-dimensional spherical geometry, including self-gravity and radiative cooling down to T = $10^4$ K. Since imprinting of Jeans mass at $10^4$ K is essential to this model, here we focus on the cases where external UV background radiation prevents the formation of $H_2$ molecules and so prevent the cloud from cooling below $10^4$ K. The quantitative results from these simulations can be summarized as follows: 1) Perturbations smaller than $M_{min}\~(10^{5.6}\;M{\bigodot})(nh/0.05cm^{-3})^{-2}$ cool isobarically, where nh is the unperturbed halo density, while perturbations larger than $M_{min}\~(10^8\;M{\bigodot})(nh/0.05cm^{-3})^{-2}$ cool isochorically and thermal instabilities do not operate. On the other hand, intermediate size perturbations ($M_{min} < M_{pgcc} < M_{max}$) are compressed supersonically, accompanied by strong accretion shocks. 2) For supersonically collapsing clouds, the density compression factor after they cool to $T_c = 10^4$ K range $10^{2.5} - 10^6$, while the isobaric compression factor is only $10^{2.5}$. 3) Isobarically collapsed clouds ($M < M_{min}$) are too small to be gravitationally bound. For supersonically collapsing clouds, however, the Jeans mass can be reduced to as small as $10^{5.5}\;M_{\bigodot}(nh/0.05cm^{-3})^{-1/2}$ at the maximum compression owing to the increased density compression. 4) The density profile of simulated PGCCs can be approximated by a constant core with a halo of $p{\infty} r^{-2}$ rather than a singular isothermal sphere.
