  • The purpose of this study was to determine the biomechanical effect of wearing carbon nanotube-based insole on cushioning and muscle tuning during drop landing. Twenty male university students(age: $21.2{\pm}1.5yrs$, height: $175.4{\pm}4.7cm$, weight: $70.2{\pm}5.8kg$) who have no musculoskeletal disorder were recruited as the subjects. Average axial strain, average shear strain, inversion angle, linear velocity, angular velocity, vertical GRF and loading rate were determined for each trial. For each dependent variable, a one-way analysis of variance(ANOVA) with repeated measures was performed to test if significant difference existed among different three conditions(p<.05). The results showed that Average axial strain of line 4 was significantly less in CNT compared with EVA and PU during IP phase. The average shear strain was less in CNT compared with EVA and PU during other phases. The inversion angle was increased in CNT compared with EVA and PU during all phase. In linear velocity, angular velocity, vertical GRF and loading rate, there were no significant difference between the three groups. This result seems that fine particle of carbon nanotube couldn't make geometric form which can absolve impact force by increasing density through eliminating voids of forms. Thus, searching for methods that keep voids of forms may play a pivotal role in developing of insole. This has led to suggestions of the need for further biomechanical analysis to these factors.

  • As a traditional method to apply fingerprint powder, brush method ("dusting") can create a risk to the health of crime scene investigators due to the inhalation toxicity of harmful and fine powders. Therefore, as a new method of applying powders, we tried to evaluate the potential of a chamber method for the development of latent fingerprint using fans in a closed chamber with a fixed capacity that can prevent the powders from being blown outside and exposed to the users, by comparing with the development results of the conventional brush method. Fingerprints on glass and plastic (PET) were extracted with black powder and green fluorescent powder, and the sharpness and minutiae of the developed fingerprints were compared for each method. The results of the black powder showed similar results, but the effect of the chamber method was slightly decreased when the green fluorescent powder was used. In order to improve the development with the green fluorescent powder, the mixture (50 : 50) of the fluorescent powder with the silica gel was tested and the results were similar to those of the brush method. It is expected that the chamber method has a high potential as a new powder application method considering the health of the crime scene investigator after fine tuning of development conditions with additional studies.

  • New classes of LC resonators for micro magnetic sensor device were proposed and fabricated. The first type LC resonator (Type I) consists of a small piece of microwire and two cylindrical electrodes at the end of the microwire without direct contact to its ferromagnetic core. In type I resonator the ferromagnetic core of the microwire and cylindrical electrodes act as an inductor and two capacitors respectively to form a LC circuit. The second type LC resonator (Type II) consists of a solenoidal micro-inductor with a bundle of soft magnetic microwires as a core. The solenoidal micro-inductors fabricated by MEMS technique were $500\sim1,000\;\mu{m}$ in length with $10\sim20$ turns. A capacitor is connected in parallel to the micro-inductor to form a LC circuit. A tiny glass coated $CO_{83.2}B_{3.3}Si_{5.9}Mn_{7.6}$ microwire was fabricated by a glass-coated melt spinning technique. A supergiant magneto-impedance effect was found in a type I resonator as much as 400,000% by precise tuning frequency at around 518.51 MHz. In type II resonator the changes of inductance as a function of external magnetic field in micro-inductors with properly annealed microwire cores were varied as much as 370%. The phase angle between current and voltage was also strongly dependent on the magnetic field. The drastic increments of magnetoimpedance at near the resonance frequency were observed in both types of LC resonators. Accordingly, the sudden change of the phase angle, as large as $180^{\circ}C$, evidenced the occurrence of the resonance at a given external magnetic field.

  • Deep learning algorithms for Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) have been extracting the interest of researchers and engineers. These algorithms commonly used loss functions and evaluation indices like the mean square error (MSE) which were not originally designed for SHM problems. An updated loss function which was specifically constructed for deep-learning-based structural damage detection problems has been proposed in this study. By tuning the coefficients of the loss function, the weights for damage localization and quantification can be adapted to the real situation and the deep learning network can avoid unnecessary iterations on damage localization and focus on the damage severity identification. To prove efficiency of the proposed method, structural damage detection using convolutional neural networks (CNNs) was conducted on a truss bridge model. Results showed that the validation curve with the updated loss function converged faster than the traditional MSE. Data augmentation was conducted to improve the anti-noise ability of the proposed method. For reducing the training time, the normalized modal strain energy change (NMSEC) was extracted, and the principal component analysis (PCA) was adopted for dimension reduction. The results showed that the training time was reduced by 90% and the damage identification accuracy could also have a slight increase. Furthermore, the effect of different modes and elements on the training dataset was also analyzed. The proposed method could greatly improve the performance for structural damage detection on both the training time and detection accuracy.

  • Shenzhen Innovation Light source Facility (SILF) is a 3.0 GeV fourth generation diffraction limited synchrotron light source currently under construction in Shenzhen. The SILF storage ring is proposed to use two 500 MHz single cell superconducting radio frequency (SRF) cavities to provide 2.4 MV RF voltage. In this study, we examined the geometric structure of mature CESR superconducting cavities and adopted a beam-pipe-type extraction scheme for high-order modes (HOM). One of the objectives of SRF cavity design and optimization in this study is to reduce Ep/Eacc and Bp/Eacc as much as possible to reduce power loss and ensure stable operation of the cavity. To reduce the risk of beam instability and thermal breakdown, the HOM and Multipacting (MP) are simulated. Moreover, the mechanical properties of the cavity are analyzed, including frequency sensitivity from pressure of liquid helium (LHe), stress, tuning, Lorentz force detuning (LFD), the microphone effect, and buckling. By comprehensive design and optimization of 500 MHz single-cell SRF cavities, a superconducting cavity for SILF storage ring was developed. This paper will detailed present the design and simulation.

  • 모발의 색은 melanin의 종류와 양에 의해 결정 된다. Melanocyte는 주로 자외선 자극에 의하여 L-tyrosine으로부터 멜라닌을 합성한다. 활성산소종은 백발의 진행과정에 중요한 역할을 하고 있다. 적하수오는 백발화되는 노화과정을 억제한다고 보고되고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 흑모발생과 연관된 melanin 합성에 대한 적하수오 에탄올 추출물(PMEE)의 효능을 조사한 것이다. 항산화 실험에서 PMEE는 DPPH radical을 감소시켰고 환원력을 증가시켜 PMEE는 백발과정에 관여하는 활성산소종을 소거할 수 있다고 볼 수 있다. PMEE는 농도 의존적으로 세포생존능을 감소시켰다. 더욱이 melanin의 생성에 대한 PMEE의 효과는 DOPA assay와 tyrosinase 활성측정에 의하여 결정되었다. PMEE는 tyrosinase 활성을 증가시켰으며 melanin 합성을 촉진시켰다. 뿐만 아니라 Western blot 분석을 이용하여 tyrosinase, TRP-1, TRP-2 및 MITF 뿐만 아니라 SOD-3와 catalase와 같은 항산화 효소의 단백질 발현을 조사하였다. PMEE의 항산화 활성의 증가로 인하여 SOD-3와 catalase의 발현 수준은 감소된 것으로 나타났다. 특히, PMEE는 tyrosinase와 TRP-2의 발현 수준은 증가시켰다. 이러한 결과들은 PMEE가 백발화 된 모발에서 흑발로 변하는 것과 관련된 melanin 합성을 촉진할 수 있다는 것을 암시하고 있다.

  • Zr을 $8\%$ 첨가한 BZT 세라믹스를 종결정과 소재봉으로 사용하여 floating zone technique법으로 $Ba(Zr_{0.08}Ti_{0.92})O_3$ 다결정을 성장하였다. 열처리 효과를 알아보기 위하여 성장한 결정의 일부를 떼어내어 $1,200^{\circ}C$에서 10시간동안 산소 분위기에서 열처리하였다. $-100^{\circ}C$에서 $+150^{\circ}C$ 온도 영역에서 유전상수 및 유전손실을 10kHz, 100kHz, 그리고 1 MHz에서 측정하여 성장 결정의 유전특성을 알아보았다. 상온($27^{\circ}C$)과 저온($-73^{\circ}C$)에서 직류전장(-15kV/cm$\le$E$\le$15kV/cm)을 인가하면서 유전상수의 변화를 10kHz와 100kHz에서 측정함으로써 유전상수의 전장의존성을 알아보았다. 산소 열처리는 상온에서 10kHz의 튜너빌리티를 $47.5\%$에서 $51\%$로, 그리고 성능지수를 39.6에서 46.4로 향상시키었다. 바이어스 직류전장을 15kV/cm 이상 인가하면 성능지수가 46.4 이상으로 향상될 수 있으므로 이 물질이 마이크로파 전장 조절 소자에 응용될 수 있는 가능성이 있다.

  • 다중 조인 연산의 파이프라인 방식 처리에서 조인 어트리뷰트의 자료 불균형(data skew)이 성능에 주는 영향을 연구하고, 자료 불균형을 대비하여 적재부하를 라운드-로빈 방식으로 정적 분할하는 방법과 자료분포도를 이용하여 적응적으로 분할하는 두 가지 파이프라인 해시 조인 알고리즘을 제안한다. 해시 기반 조인을 사용하면 여러 개의 조인을 파이프라인 방식으로 처리할 수 있다. 다중 조인의 파이프라인 방식 처리는 조인 중간 결과를 디스크를 통하지 않고 다른 프로세서에게 직접 전달하므로 효율적이다. 파이프라인 해시 조인 알고리즘이 자료 불균형을 대비한 부하 균형 유지 메커니즘을 갖고 있지 않다면 자료 불균형은 성능에 매우 심각한 영향을 줄 수 있다. 본 논문은 자료 불균형의 영향과 제안된 두 가지 기법을 비교하기 위하여 파이프라인 세그먼트의 실행 모형, 비용 모형, 그리고 시뮬레이터를 개발한다. 다양한 파라미터로 모의 실험을 한 결과에 의하면 자료 불균형은 조인 선택도와 릴레이션 크기에 비례하여 시스템 성능을 떨어뜨림을 보여준다. 그러나 제안된 파이프 라인 해시 조인 알고리즘은 다수의 버켓 사용과 분할의 조율을 통해 자료 불균형도가 심한 경우에도 좋은 성능을 갖게 한다.

  • Recently, many state-of-art spectroscopy techniques are used to unravel the mysteries of condensed matters. And numerous heterostructures have provided a new avenue to search for new emergent phenomena. Especially, near the interface, various forms of symmetry-breaking can appear, which induces many novel phenomena. Although these intriguing phenomena can be emerged at the interface, by using conventional measurement techniques, the experimental investigations have been limited due to the buried nature of interface. One of the ways to overcome this limitation is in situ investigation of the layer-by-layer evolution of the electronic structure with increasing of the thickness. Namely, with very thin layer, we can measure the electronic structure strongly affected by the interface effect, but with thick layer, the bulk property becomes strong. Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) is powerful tool to directly obtain electronic structure, and it is very surface sensitive. Thus, the layer-by-layer evolution of the electronic structure in oxide heterostructure can be investigated by using in situ ARPES. LaNiO3 (LNO) heterostructures have recently attracted much attention due to theoretical predictions for many intriguing quantum phenomena. The theories suggest that, by tuning external parameters such as misfit strain and dimensionality in LNO heterostructure, the latent orders, which is absent in bulk, including charge disproportionation, spin-density-wave order and Mott insulator, could be emerged in LNO heterostructure. Here, we performed in situ ARPES studies on LNO films with varying the misfit strain and thickness. (1) By using LaAlO3 (-1.3%), NdGaO3 (+0.3%), and SrTiO3 (+1.7%) substrates, we could obtain LNO films under compressive strain, nearly strain-free, and tensile strain, respectively. As strain state changes from compressive to tensile, the Ni eg bands are rearranged and cross the Fermi level, which induces a change of Fermi surface (FS) topology. Additionally, two different FS superstructures are observed depending on strain states, which are attributed to signatures of latent charge and spin orderings in LNO films. (2) We also deposited LNO ultrathin films under tensile strain with thickness between 1 and 10 unit-cells. We found that the Fermi surface nesting effect becomes strong in two-dimensions and significantly enhances spin-density-wave order. The further details are discussed more in presentation.

  • Purpose : The study aimed to examine gender-differences in muscle tone, elasticity, and stiffness of the erector spinae in young and old subjects. This study also aimed to assess the effect of aging on muscle tone, elasticity, and stiffness of the erector spinae in men and women, and compare the trend of the aging effect between the two gender groups. Methods : With the muscle in the relaxed state and subjects in the prone position, a myotonometer was used to quantify muscle tone, elasticity, and stiffness, of the erector spinae in 102 participants[46 males (29 young subjects, aged 22.48±2.23 years and 17 old subjects, aged 76.35±3.71 years), 56 females (40 young subjects, aged 20.38±1.43 years and 16 old subjects, aged 74.56±5.40 years)]. Results : The tone and stiffness of the erector spinae muscles were greater in men than in women for both age groups (p<.001-.01), while elasticity did not show a significant difference between men and women. For the direction of change, both male and female groups showed significantly increased tone and stiffness, and decreased elasticity with increasing age (p<.001). For age-related changes, a different tendency was observed between men and women. Men showed a greater increase in tone than women with aging. in contrast, both men and women exhibited a similar decrease or increase in elasticity and stiffness. Conclusion : Gender-differences in the erector spinae in terms of muscle tone and stiffness were observed. Regardless of the age, men had higher muscle tone and stiffness than women, but not elasticity. The erector spinae muscles showed age-related changes in all aspects of muscle tone, elasticity, and stiffness, in both men and women. Notably, men presented greater variation than women in the amount of increase of muscle tone with aging. These findings have implications for musculoskeletal therapeutic approaches, and gender-customized tuning may be indicated for designing exercise interventions to prevent and manage gender-sensitive muscular injuries or diseases and frailty.
