Since photocatalysts are activated by lights of UV wavelengths, plasma is alternatively used as a light source for a photocatalytic reactor. Light intensity generated by plasma is proportional to the surface area of catalytic material, and this, in many practical applications, is prescribed by the geometry of a plasma generator. Thus, it is crucial to increase the surface area far sufficient light intensity for photocatalytic reaction. For example, in a pack-bed type reactor, multitudes of beads are used as a substrate in order to increase the surface area. Honeycomb monolith type substrate, which has very good surface area to volume ratio, has been difficult to apply plasma as a light source due to the fact that light penetration depth through the honeycomb monolith was too short to cover sufficient area, thus resulting in poor intensity for photocatalytic reaction. In this study, nonthermal plasma generation through a photocatalytic reactor of honeycomb monolith substrate is investigated to lengthen this short penetration depth. The ceramic honeycomb monolith substrate used in this study has the same length as a three way catalyst used fur automotive applications, and it is shown that sufficient light intensity for photocatalytic reaction can also be obtained with honeycomb monolith type reactor.

The feasibility study of UV-disinfection system was performed for disinfection of effluent from wastewater treatment plant. Three low-pressure UV lamps of 17, 25, and 41 W were examined with various flow rates. Low-pressure UV lamps of 17W were examined with various turbidity, DOM (dissolved organic matter), and SS (suspended solid). The pilot plant was a flow-through type UV-disinfection system, and the range of exposure time varied from 5 to 40 seconds, turbidity from 0 to 40 NTU, DOM from 0 to 30 mg/L, and SS from 10 to 40 mg/L. The 41W lamp demonstrated complete disinfection showing no survival ratio in all the experimental conditions, and generally 17W and 25W lamps also showed high removal ratio over 97%. For the same UV dose (UV intensity times exposure time), high intensity-short exposure conditions showed better disinfection efficiency than low intensity-long exposure conditions. While the effects of turbidity and DOM were not apparent, the effects of SS was significant on the disinfection efficiency which indicates that SS control before UV-disinfection appears to be necessary to increase removal efficiency. Considering characteristics of effluent from existing wastewater treatment plants, cost-effectiveness, stable performance, and minimum maintenance, the flow-through type UV-disinfection system with high intensity and low-pressure lamps was thought to be a competitive disinfection system for wastewater reclamation.

이 연구의 목적은 8주간 동일한 운동량(일일 400kcal)으로 강도별 유산소성운동과 복합운동이 인슐린저항성과 심혈관질환 위험요인, 시간적 효율성에 어떠한 영향을 미치는 지를 구명하고자 한다. 2014년6월부터 2014년8월까지 40세 이상의 체지방률 30%이상인 여성 32명을 대상으로 하였으며, 유산소운동집단은 VO2max 50%(MAE, n=8)과 VO2max 80%(VAE, n=8)으로, 복합운동집단은 VO2max 50%+저항성운동(MARE, n=8)과 VO2max 80%+저항성운동(VARE, n=8)으로 각각 무선배정 하였다. 이 연구의 결과에서, 체지방률은 운동 후 모든 집단에서 유의한 감소를 보였으며, 인슐린저항성은 복합운동 두 집단에서 운동 후 유의하게 감소하였다(p<.05 & p<.01). CRP는 운동 후 낮아지는 경향을 보였지만 통계적으로 유의한 차이는 나타나지 않았으며 IL-6 또한 모든 집단에서 낮아지는 경향을 보였으나 VAE집단에서만 유의하게 낮아진 것으로 나타났다(p<.05). TNF-${\alpha}$의 농도의 변화에서는 MAE집단에서는 8주 후, 유의하게 감소되었지만(p<.05), VARE집단에서는 오히려 유의하게 증가되었다(p<.05). 운동시간의 변화에서는 모든 시기에서 낮은 강도의 운동집단보다는 높은 강도의 운동집단에서 유의하게 운동시간이 짧은 것으로 나타났다(p<.001). 이러한 결과는 체지방률은 운동의 강도와 형태에 관계없이 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났으며 CRP는 운동의 강도와 형태에 별다른 영향을 받지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 인슐린저항성과 TNF-${\alpha}$의 농도는 운동의 형태에 따라 어느 정도 영향을 받는 것으로 생각되며 IL-6와 TNF-${\alpha}$, 운동시간은 운동 강도에 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났고 특히 운동시간의 변화에서는 보다 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 사료된다.

We propose obstacle classification method based on 2D LIDAR(Light Detecting and Ranging) database. The existing obstacle classification method based on 2D LIDAR, has an advantage in terms of accuracy and shorter calculation time. However, it was difficult to classifier the type of obstacle and therefore accurate path planning was not possible. In order to overcome this problem, a method of classifying obstacle type based on width data of obstacle was proposed. However, width data was not sufficient to improve accuracy. In this paper, database was established by width, intensity, variance of range, variance of intensity data. The first classification was processed by the width data, and the second classification was processed by the intensity data, and the third classification was processed by the variance of range, intensity data. The classification was processed by comparing to database, and the result of obstacle classification was determined by finding the one with highest similarity values. An experiment using an actual autonomous vehicle under real environment shows that calculation time declined in comparison to 3D LIDAR and it was possible to classify obstacle using single 2D LIDAR.

In this study, the characteristics of turbulent flow and collection efficiency for an one-stage electrostatic precipitator(ESP) with slit type collecting electrode for urban railway underground tunnels were obtained using computational fluid dynamics(CFD) commercial code FLUENT 6.3 and lab-scale experiments. The electrostatic precipitator was operated under high gas velocity(3~12m/s). Five different designs of collecting electrode, flat plate-type and a slit-type of 3mm, 5mm, 7mm and 10mm slit width and four various gas velocity(3, 6, 9, and 12m/s) were used and applied. A standard k-${\varepsilon}$ model in CFD commercial code FLUENT 6.3 was used for flow simulation. The flow simulation results showed that the turbulent intensity of flat plate-type was higher than slit-type under all gas velocity conditions and also the turbulent intensity of flat plate-type was increased continuously, but in case of slit-type was maintained at constant range. And, the turbulent intensity was decreased according to increasing of slit width. The experimental results showed that the collection efficiency of slit-type was higher than flat plate-type under all gas velocity conditions. And, over 6m/s gas velocity condition, the collection efficiency of 5mm and 7mm was highest, when compared to 3mm and 10mm.

광합성 홍색세균의 light harvesting complex II (LHC II)발현 유전자가 제거된 돌연변이종을 halogen 램프 하에서 거리에 따라 광도를 달리하며 배양하여 wild type과 생산성을 비교한 결과 낮은 광도(34 ${\mu}E/m^2/s$)에서는 wild type가 높은 광도 (376, 118 ${\mu}E/m^2/s$)에서는 mutant가 높은 세포농도를 나타내었다. 특히 118 ${\mu}E/m^2/s$에서 LHC $II^-$ mutant가 56% 높은 세포생산량을 보였다. 이는 세포내 pigment양의 감소로 mutual shading effect가 감소하였기 때문으로 판단되었다.

The intensity of a ground motion can be measured by a number of parameters, some of which might exhibit robust correlations with the damage of structures subjected to that motion. In this study, 204 near-fault pulse-type records are selected and their seismic parameters are determined. Time history and damage analyses of a tested 3-storey reinforced concrete frame representing for low-rise reinforced concrete buildings subjected to those earthquake motions are performed after calibration and comparison with the available experimental results. The aim of this paper is to determine amongst several available seismic parameters, the ones that have strong correlations with the structural damage measured by a damage index and the maximum inter-story drift. The results show that Velocity Spectrum Intensity is the leading parameter demonstrating the best correlation, followed by Housner Intensity, Spectral Acceleration and Spectral Displacement. These seismic parameters are recommended as reliable parameters of near-fault pulse-type motions related to damage potential of low-rise reinforced concrete structures. The results also reaffirm that the conventional and widely used parameter of Peak Ground Acceleration does not exhibit a good correlation with the structural damage.

Today's cities require deeper understanding of the thermal environment and PM₁₀ as their management becomes more critical. Based on these circumstances, this study investigated the Granger causality between the thermal environment and PM₁₀ of the 25 districts of Seoul, the most populous and urbanized city in Korea. The results of the Granger causality test on the thermal environment and PM₁₀ were classified into 12 types. Except for type 12, the temperature and urban island heat intensity of the other 11 types operated as a Granger-cause to each other in both directions. Temperature operates as a Granger-cause of urban island heat intensity in type 12. The PM₁₀ level and urban pollution island intensity operated as a Granger-cause to each other in all districts. For types 1 and 2, thermal environment operated as a Granger-cause to PM₁₀ in one direction, and type 3-type 12 confirmed that thermal environment and PM₁₀ operated as a Granger-cause in both directions. Findings reveal the intricate causalities between thermal environment and PM₁₀ at the district level and suggest mitigation strategies that are more location based.
