홀로 고립되어 존재하는 은하는 주변 은하와 상호작용을 하지 않은 채 진화하므로 은하의 진화를 연구하기에 아주 좋은 대상이다. 은하의 정량적 연구를 위해 꼭 알아야 하는 중요한 물리량으로 거리와 성간소광량이 있다. 우리는 허블 우주망원경(HST) Advanced Camera for Surveys(ACS)/High Resolution Channel(HRC)로 관측한 고립된 왜소불규칙은하 NGC 1156 ($RA_{2000}$=02:59:42.19, $DEC_{2000}$=+25:14:14.2) 중심부($26^{\prime\prime}{\times}29^{\prime\prime}$)의 archive 자료를 분석하여 이 은하의 거리와 성간소광량을 새로 구했다. 이 은하의 거리를 측정한 과거 자료는 Tully(1988, Nearby Galaxies Catalog) 목록과 Special Astrophysical Observatory 6m 망원경/VI(각 300s) 영상자료의 가장 밝은 별로 거리를 구한 Karachentsev et al. (1996) 자료 뿐이다. 우리는 HST/ACS/HRC+UBVI 자료 중 U자료를 이용하여 아주 신뢰할 만한 소광량 값($E(B-V)=0.35{\pm}0.05$)을 얻었고, 가장 밝은 빨간 별과 파란 별 자료를 이용하여 새로운 거리지수($(m-M)_0=29.39{\pm}0.20$, $d=7.6{\pm}0.7$ Mpc)를 결정했다. 이 거리 값은 과거의 값들(Tully $6.4{\pm}1.2$ Mpc; Karachentsev et al. $7.8{\pm}0.5$ Mpc)과 크게 다르지 않으며, 기존의 거리 자료들 역시 신뢰할만함을 보여준다. ACS/Wide Field Channel과 달리 ACS/HRC의 경우 등급 표준화 방정식이 완벽하지 않은데, 우리의 경우 F550M자료를 표준화할 수 없었다. 그러나 우리는 여러 파장, 많은 관측자료가 존재하는 47 Tucanae (NGC 104) 구상성단의 관측자료와 Padova 등연령곡선을 이용하여 성공적인 등급변환을 수행할 수 있었다.

Manuka oil named New Zealand’s tea tree oil is oil-soluble and comes firom nature. Manuka oil and its extract $\alpha$-pinene, Oxy’less clear, R-limonene which is one of the component of Citron extracted from Grapefruit seed and Citrex were used to estimate the antimicrobial activity and to improve the capability of antiseptic. Disk diffusion method was used to measure the antimicrobial activity. Escherichia coli which is gram-negative bacteria and Staphylococcus aureus which is gram-positive bacteria were used as strain. The antimicrobial activity of Manuka oil and $\alpha$-pinene for Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus was similar when the concentration of Manuka oil and $\alpha$-pinene are 10u/paper disk. However, antimi-crobial activity of Manuka oil fDr Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aurem was better than that of $\alpha$-pinene when the concentration of Manuka oil and $\alpha$-pinene was low. Antimicrobial activity of Oxy’less clear is better than that of propyl para hydroxybenzoate(PPHB), R-limonene at all the concentration and is similar to that of $\alpha$-pinene.

To better understand the exact nature of the major toxic compound responsible for phytotoxicity of sorghum stem, the most toxic compound from the stem extract was isolated by rapid chromatography and subsequently purified by thin-layer chromatography(TLC) and high pressure liquid chromatography(HPLC). Of the eight fractions isolated by rapid chromatography, the fraction with solvent combinations of butanol (8) : acetic acid (1) : water (1) had the highest toxicity. Further separation of the fraction by TLC in a solvent mixture of butanol (24) : acetic acid (16.4) : water (7) : propanol (1) showed that the spot with an $R_f$ 0.71 had one major peak with retention time of 20.40 minutes. Upon subjecting gas chromatography and the HPLC fraction to the mass spectrometry, the toxic compound is probably one of the four compounds ; 1-methyl-1-(2-propynyl)-hydrazine, 1-aziridineethanol, 5-chloro-2-pentanone, and 2-(methylseleno)-ethanamine.

A major advantage of the area in and around Braunschweig is its concentration of major research institutes and small to large enterprises dealing with different modes of transportation. For many years, aviation has been a particular focus. The research institutes have aircraft and helicopters equipped especially for research projects, as well as other laboratory equipment, allowing simulation and testing of air traffic application both virtually and on real aircraft. In addition, with the Luftfahrtbundesamt (equivalent organization to FAA) and the Bundesstelle $f{\"{u}}r$ Flugunfalluntersuchung (equivalent to NTSB) both located at the Research Airport, it enables direct contact with two key air-traffic safety authorities. The institutes of DLR and the Technical University of Braunschweig are very active in rail transportation applications. Cooperation with the market leader in rail automation - Siemens Rail Automation, also located in Braunschweig - and with other companies in the Braunschweig region means that safety-critical road applications and mobility research is available due to the activities of a number of institutes. Cooperation with Volkswagen (VW) and other companies in the region ensure access to the market leaders' know-how in this sector. Current European activities within framework of the Galileo project offer particularly good opportunities for the Research Airport to leverage its expertise and position itself internationally as a specialist in safety-critical transport applications - the centre is an initiative of Niedersachsen and the Ministry of Economic Affairs, Labour and Transport Location and navigation plays a central role in all modes of transport - air, road and rail. The market is being revolutionized by the increasing integration of GNSS. The realization of the Galileo system will provide additional opportunities for the Research Airport: Galileo as a civil operated system offers service guarantees especially in the area of safety-critical applications in transportation. Notably standards, processes and authorizations related to the certification of safety-critical applications in the areas of air, road and rail transportation are still to be determined. GAUSS, located at the Research Airport Braunschweig, as an European centre of excellence for simulation, testing and certification of safety-critical applications can offer its expertise to validate the services guaranteed by the Galileo concessionaire.

Recently, the results of vital tissue test showed that nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) as a disinfection by-product (DBP), could be regarded as a carcinogen because a tumor was observed in organs. U.S.EPA indicated 0.7 ng/L as exposure concentration of NDMA based on a risk assessment target with a lifetime cancer risk of $10^{-6}$. Several recent studies have shown that UV oxidation could remove NDMA. However, UV oxidation is uneconomical and can reform NDMA after treating. In addition, the treatment mechanism of adsorption has not been founddue to the uncertainty of NDMA pathway. In addtion, NDMA has a radioisotope $^{14}C$-labeled which can be analyzed at low concentration of NDMA by Liquid Scintillation Counter (LSC). This study has investigated NDMA determination using LSC at an extremely low range from 1 to 100 ng/L and NDMA removal by powdered activated carbon (PAC) adsorption. For $^{14}C$-NDMA by LSC, the highest correlation over 99% between count number and NDMA concentrationwas obtained with possibility of $^{14}C$-NDMA concentration up to 1 ng/L. In the presence of PAC ranging from 50 to 10,000 mg/L, $^{14}C$-NDMA was removed from 18% to 97% for Sigma-Aldrich corporation (S-A co.) and from 9% to 93% by PAC for Daejung corporation (Dj co.). Hence it was found that the removal efficiency by PAC adsorption could vary depending on PAC types from different companies. For PAC adsorption capacity of $^{14}C$-NDMA using the Freundlich isotherm, $K_f$ and 1/n of PAC from S-A co. were $2.67\times10^{-3}$ ng/mg and 1.009, while those of PAC from Dj co. were $1.30\times10^{-3}$ ng/mg and 0.994, respectively. Thus, PAC from S-A co. showed twice higher adsorption capacity than Dj co.

In this study, a novel reactive power control scheme is proposed to supply stable reactive power to the distribution line by compensating a ripple voltage of DC link. In a single-phase system, a magnitude of second harmonic is inevitably generated in the DC link voltage, and this phenomenon is further increased when the capacity of DC link capacitor decreases. Reactive power control was performed by controlling the d-axis current in the virtual synchronous reference frame, and the voltage control for maintaining the DC link voltage was implemented through the q-axis current control. The proposed method for compensating the ripple voltage was classified into three parts, which consist of the extraction unit of DC link voltage, high pass filter (HPF), and time delay unit. HPF removes an offset component of DC link voltage extracted from integral, and a time delay unit compensates the phase leading effect due to the HPF. The compensated DC voltage is used as feedback component of voltage control loop to supply stable reactive power. The performance of the proposed algorithm was verified through simulation and experiments. At DC link capacitance of 375 uF, the magnitude of ripple voltage decreased to 8 Vpp from 74 Vpp in the voltage control loop, and the total harmonic distortion of the current was improved.

In this study washing efficiency and desorption isotherms for heavy petroleum oil (HPO), Zn, and Pb bound to complex contaminated soils were examined using various soil flushing agents. Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), methanol, ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA), and citric acid were selected as soil flushing agents. 3% (w/v) and 4% SDS showed the highest removal efficiency for HPO, but the difference was not statistically significant (p > 0.05). Thus, 3% SDS was chosen as the best soil flushing agent for HPO. In the case of heavy metals, 0.1-M EDTA showed the highest removal efficiencies. But 0.05-M citric acid was selected due to its economic and eco-friendly strengths. The desorption isotherms obtained using Freundlich and Langmuir models indicated that the maximum desorption characteristics ($K_F$ and $Q_{max}$) of HPO with 4% SDS and 90% methanol and heavy metals with 0.1-M EDTA and 0.1-M citric acid, respectively, were markedly lower than in other cases. In addition, when 4% SDS and 90% methanol were used for HPO in the range of $C_e$ higher than 600 mg/L, and when 0.1M citric acid and 0.1M EDTA were used for Zn and Pb in the range of $C_e$ higher than 300 and 100 mg/L, respectively, the distribution constant converged to certain levels. Thus, constant values of $K_U$ and $K_L$ were determined. It was found that these constants represent the maximum desorption capacity and they can be used as distribution coefficients of desorption equilibrium for the flushing agents. The results of this study provided fundamental information for the selection of the best agents as well as for the process design and operation of soil washing/soil flushing of complex contaminated soils.

More than a century ago, the first scientific report was published about fracture fixation with plates. During the 1950's, open reduction and plate fixation for fractures were standardized by the founders of Arbeitsgemeinschaft $f{\ddot{u}}r$ osteosynthesefragen/Association for the Study of Internal Fixation. Since the introduction of plate fixation for fractures, several plates and screws have been developed, all with their own characteristics. To accomplice more fracture stability, it was thought the bigger the plate, the better. The counter side was a compromised blood supply of the bone, often resulting in bone necrosis and ultimately delayed or non-union. With the search and development of new materials and techniques for fracture fixation, less invasive procedures have become increasingly popular. This resulted in the minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) technique for fracture fixation. With the MIPO technique, procedures could be performed with smaller incisions and thus with less soft tissue damage and a better preserved blood supply. The last 5 years rib fixation has become increasingly popular, rising evidence has becomeavailable suggesting that surgical rib fixation improves outcome of patients with a flail chest or isolated rib fractures. Many surgical approaches for rib fixation have been described in the old literature, however, most of these techniques are obscure nowadays. Currently mostly large incisions with considerable surgical insult are used to stabilize rib fractures. We think that MIPO deserves a place in the surgical treatment of rib fractures. We present the aspects of diagnosis, preoperative planning and operative techniques in regard to MIPO rib fixation.

동력 전달을 위한 구동 부품에 대한 내마모성 개선을 통한 에너지 효율 및 부품의 수명 향상에 대한 사회적 관심이 급증하고 있다. 특히, 최근에는 자동차용 구동부품에 저마찰 내마모 특성이 우수한 Mo-N-Cu 나노복합체 박막에 대한 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 Mo-N-Cu 나노복합체 박막을 마그네트론 스퍼터링 증착법을 활용하였고, 이때 Mo 및 Cu 타겟을 적용하여 동시에 증착하였다. 진공 챔버의 진공도는 $5{\times}10^{-6}\;Torr$ 이하의 초기 진공도를 확보한 이후, 알곤 및 질소 가스를 주입하여 공정 압력이 5 mTorr 수준이 되도록 하였다. 이때 N2/(Ar+N2) = 0.5를 유지하였다. Mo-N-Cu 박막내에 Cu 함량 변화를 위해 Mo 캐소드는 D.C. 1 kW로 고정하고 Cu 캐소드에 R.F. 파워를 0, 40, 60, 80 W로 변화하였다. 박막의 두께는 증착시간을 변화하면서 $1\;{\mu}m$ 이상이 되도록 하였다. Cu 캐소드에 인가된 파워의 변화에 따라 Mo-N-Cu 박막내 Cu 함유량은 10 at.%까지 변화되는 것을 EDX 분석을 통해 확인하였다. 또한 증착된 Mo-N-Cu 박막의 표면 및 단면에 대한 FE-SEM 분석을 통하여 전형적인 주상구조를 지닌 MoN 박막에서 Cu 함량이 증가할수록 Mo-N-Cu 박막의 결정성을 방해하는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 XRD 분석을 통하여 박막의 결정 구조 분석을 하였고, Nano Indentor를 통하여 30 GPa 수준의 고경도를 지닌 박막이 형성됨을 확인하였다. 박막의 내마모 특성 평가를 위해 ball-on-disk 트라이보미터를 활용하여 마찰계수 평가를 수행하였고, Cu 함유량의 변화에 따라 마찰계수가 MoN 박막의 경우 0.8에서 Cu 함량이 5 at.%에서 0.15로 급격하게 낮아짐을 확인하였다.
