기존의 한국형 기준 처분시스템의 처분 효율을 높인 향상된 한국형 기준 처분시스템(Improved Korean Reference Disposal System, KRS⁺)의 열-수리-역학적 복합거동 성능평가를 위해 TOUGH2-MP/FLAC3D를 이용한 수치모델링 연구가 수행되었다. 사용후핵연료 처분 이후 방사성 붕괴열에 의해 처분시스템의 온도가 상승하고, 방사성 붕괴열이 빠르게 감소함에 따라 온도가 감소하여 최대 온도가 설계기준 온도인 100℃를 넘지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 완충재의 초기 포화도는 온도 상승으로 인한 공극수의 증발로 인해 감소하였다가 주변 암반으로부터 지하수가 유입되어 처분 약 250년 후 포화 상태에 이르렀다. 암반에서는 완충재와 암반의 흡입력의 차이로 인해 암반에서 완충재로 지하수가 유입되어 처분 직후 포화도가 감소하다가 이후 원계 암반으로부터 지하수가 유입되어 포화 상태에 도달했다. 처분시스템 내 열응력과 팽윤압 발생에 의한 주변 암반의 파괴 가능성을 평가하고자 모어-쿨롱 파괴기준식과 스폴링 강도를 사용하였다. KRS⁺ 처분시스템의 처분공의 간격을 감소시키면서 처분시스템의 열적 거동 변화를 확인하였는데, 처분공 간격이 5.5 m 이하에서는 완충재의 설계 기준 온도를 초과하게 된다. 다만, 벤토나이트 완충재 부피의 56.1%의 온도는 90℃ 이하로 유지되었다. 본 연구에서 사용한 수치해석 기법은 향후 응력 모델, 지온 경사 및 입력 물성을 변화시킨 다양한 조건에서의 처분시스템의 THM 복합거동 성능평가에 활용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Conversion of the building can be a core strategy to activate the urban regeneration. Especially in the decayed district, the conversion or retrofit of old building can be a core catalyst to stimulate the urban regeneration. Throughout the case study, a conversion from office to dwelling, there were figured out the design strategies to respond to spatial, functional requirements. The results are as follows ; 1) The main design strategy is to articulate the space by embedding the wall, mass in the rectangular space. 2) to respond to the small size of space, the flexible, movable wall system Is adopted. This gives the selectiveness to the use of space. 3) to secure the livability of interior space, the buffer zone, a terrace space, is fully utilized. This space acts as thermal buffer zone as well as a semi-interior space.

압축 벤토나이트는 고준위폐기물을 처분하기 위한 공학적방벽 시스템에서 중요한 구성요소 중 하나인 완충재의 후보물질로 가장 적합한 것으로 고려되고 있다. 완충재는 처분공 내 사용후핵연료가 담긴 처분용기와 근계 암반 사이에 채워지는 방벽재로서 지하수 유입으로부터 처분용기를 보호하고, 방사성 핵종 유출을 저지한다. 처분 초기에는 처분용기로부터 발생하는 고온의 열량으로 인해 완충재의 포화도는 감소하지만, 그 후 주변 암반으로부터 유입되는 지하수로 인해 완충재의 포화도는 증가한다. 이렇듯 완충재는 처분 운영 조건에 따라 불포화에서 포화 상태로 도달하게 되기에 완충재의 불포화-포화 거동 특성은 공학적방벽의 전체 안전성을 좌우할 수 있는 중요한 입력자료이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 국내 압축 벤토나이트 완충재에 대한 수분보유특성을 규명하고자 하였다. 처분 초기 온도 증가에 따라 완충재의 포화도가 감소하는 상황을 고려하여 상온에서부터 125도까지 압축 벤토나이트의 온도 증가에 따른 체적 함수비와 수분흡입력을 측정하였다. 또한 이를 상온에서 동일한 함수비에서의 수분보유능과 비교하였으며 상온에서의 수분흡입력은 1~15% 정도 크게 측정되었다.

This study provides the electrical model of combustible catalytic gas sensor. Physical characteristics such as thermal behavior, resistance change were included in this model. The finite element method analysis for sensor device structure showed that the thermal behavior of sensor is expressed in a simple electrical equivalent circuit that consists of a resistor, a capacitor and a current source. This thermal equivalent circuit interfaces with real electrical circuit using two parts. One is 'power to heat' converter. The other is temperature dependent variable resistor. These parts realized with the analog behavior devices of the SPICE library. The gas response tendency was represented from the mass transferring limitation theory and the combustion theory. In this model, Gas concentration that is expressed in voltage at the model, is converted to heat and is flowed to the thermal equivalent circuit. This model is tested in several circuit simulations. The resistance change of device, the delay time due to thermal capacity, the gas responses output voltage that are calculated from SPICE simulations correspond well to real results from measuring in electrical circuits. Also good simulation result can be produced in the more complicated circuit that includes amplifier, bios circiut, buffer part.

지구관측위성의 광학탑재체 내부에 장착된 초점면결상장치(FPA, Focal Plane Assembly)는 영상촬영시 많은 열을 발생하며, 최상성능획득을 위해서는 온도가 좁은 온도범위 내에서 유지되어야 한다. 초점면결상장치가 짧은 시간 동안 많은 열을 발생할 때, 이를 효과적으로 냉각시키기 위해 보통 히트파이프와 복사방열판을 이용한다. 이번 연구에서는 초점면결상장치의 최대상승온도를 낮추고, 영상촬영대기시 최적온도유지를 위한 히터작동율을 낮추기 위해 초점면결상장치와 복사방열판 사이에 열완충질량(TBM, Thermal Buffer Mass)을 적용하였는데, 이를 통해 얻을 수 있는 열설계 개선효과에 대해서 기술한다.

The evaluation of Thermo-Hydro-Mechanical (THM) coupling behavior is important for the development of underground space for various purposes. For a high-level radioactive waste repository excavated in a deep underground rock mass, the accurate prediction of the complex THM behavior is essential for the long-term safety and stability assessment. In order to develop reliable THM analysis techniques effectively, an international cooperation project, Development of Coupled models and their Validation against Experiments (DECOVALEX), was carried out. In DECOVALEX-2015 Task B2, the in situ THM experiment that was conducted at Horonobe Underground Research Laboratory(URL) by Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA), was modeled by the research teams from the participating countries. In this study, a THM coupling technique that combined TOUGH2 and FLAC3D was developed and applied to the THM analysis for the in situ experiment, in which rock, buffer, backfill, sand, and heater were installed. With the assistance of an artificial neural network, the boundary conditions for the experiment could be adequately implemented in the modeling. The thermal, hydraulic, and mechanical results from the modeling were compared with the measurements from the in situ THM experiment. The predicted buffer temperature from the THM modelling was about $10^{\circ}C$ higher than measurement near by the overpack. At the other locations far from the overpack, modelling predicted slightly lower temperature than measurement. Even though the magnitude of pressure from the modeling was different from the measurements, the general trends of the variation with time were found to be similar.

An agar-degrading Agarivorans sp. AG17 strain was isolated from the red seaweed Grateloupia filicina collected from Jeju Island. A beta-agarase gene from Agarivorans sp. AG17 was cloned and designated as agrA. agrA has a 2,985 bp coding region encoding 995 amino acids and was classified into the glycoside hydrolase family (GHF)-50. Predicted molecular mass of the mature protein was 105 kDa. His-tagged agrA was overexpressed in Escherichia coli and purified as a fusion protein. The enzyme showed 158.8 unit/mg specific activity (optimum temperature at $65^{\circ}C$ and pH 5.5 in acetate buffer) with unique biochemical properties (high thermal and pH stabilities). Enzyme produced neoagarohexaose, neoagarotetraose and neoagarobiose by degrading agar, and hydrolyzed neoagaro-oligosaccharides were biologically active. Hence the purified enzyme has potential for use in industrial applications such as the development of cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.

We have developed a new way of the constant growth technique to maintain a grating height of originally-etched V-groove of submicron gratings up to 1.5 $\mu\textrm{m}$ thickness by a low pressure metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. The constant growth technique is well performed on two kinds of submicron gratings that made by holography and electron (e)-beam lithography GaAs buffer layer grown on thermally deformed submicron gratings has an important role in recovering the deformed grating profile from sinusoidal to V-shaped by reducing mass transport effects. The thermal deformation effect on submicron gratings made by e-beam lithography is less than that on submicron gratings made by holography. The constant growth technique is an important step to realize complex optoelectronic devices such as one-step grown distributed feedback lasers and two-dimensional photonic crystals.

Thermostable protease is very effective to improve the industrial processes in many fields. Two thermostable extracellular proteases from the culture supernatant of the thermophilic fungus Chaetomium thermophilum were purified to homogeneity by tractional ammonium sulfate precipitation, ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-Sepharose, and Phenyl-Sepharose hydrophobic interaction chromatography. By SDS-PAGE, the molecular mass of the two purified enzymes was estimated to be 33 kDa and 63 kDa, respectively. The two proteases were found to be inhibited by PMSF, but not by iodoacetamide and EDTA. The 33 kDa protease (PRO33) exhibited maximal activity at pH 10.0 and the 63kDa protease (PRO63) at pH5.0. The optimum temperature for the two proteases was $65^{\circ}C$. The PRO33 had a $K_m$ value of 6.6mM and a $V_{max}$ value of $10.31{\mu}mol/l/min$, and PRO63 l7.6mM and $9.08{\mu}mol/l/min$, with casein as substrate. They were thermostable at $60^{\circ}C$. The protease activity of PRO33 and PRO63 remained at 67.2% and 17.31%, respectively, after incubation at $70^{\circ}C$ for 1h. The thermal stability of the two enzymes was significantly enhanced by $Ca^{2+}$. The residual activity of PRO33 and PRO63 at $70^{\circ}C$ after 60min was approximately 88.59% and 39.2%, respectively, when kept in the buffer containing $Ca^{2+}$. These properties make them applicable for many biotechnological purposes.

Recently, we have reported that 2-bromopropane might have an immunotoxic potential in rats when exposed for 28 days. In the present studies, the possibility of 2i-deoxyguanosine abduct formation by 2- bromopropane was investigated in vitro to elucidate molecular mechanism of 2-bromopropane-induced immunosuppression. $N^7-Guanine adduct$ of 2'-bromopropane (i.e., $N^7-isopropyl$ guanine) was chemically synthesized and structurally characterized by analysis of UV,$^1H-NMR,{\;}^{13}C-NMR$, COSY and fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry to use as a reference material. Incubation of 2'-deoxyguanosine with an excess amount of 2-bromopropane in PBS buffer solution, pH 7.4, at $37^{\circ}C$ for 16 h, followed by a thermal hydrolysis, produced a detectable amount of $N^7-isopropyl$ guanine by an HPLC and UV analysis. The present results suggest that 2-bromopropane might form a DNA adduct in $N^7-position$ of 2'-deoxyguanosine at 3 Physiological condition.
