Bioactive glass powders were synthesized by hydrothermal chemical route by the use of ultrasonic energy irradiation. We used sodalime, calcium nitrate tetra hydrate and di ammonium hydrogen phosphate as the precursor material to synthesize $SiO_2$ rich bio-active glass materials. The $SiO_2$ content was varied in the precursor mixture to 60, 52 and 45 mole%. Dense compacts were obtained by microwave sintering at $1,100^{\circ}C$. Mechanical properties were characterized for the fabricated dense bioactive glasses and were found to be comparable with conventional CaO-$SiO_2$-$Na_2O$-$P_2O_5$ bioactive glass. Detailed biocompatibility evaluation of the glass composition was investigated by in-vitro culture of MG-63 cell and mesenchyme stem cell. Cell adhesion behavior was investigated for both of the cell by one cell morphology for 30, 60 and 90 minutes. Cell proliferation behavior was investigated by culturing both of the cells for 1, 3 and 7 days and was found to be excellent. Both SEM and confocal laser scanning microscopy were used for the investigation. Western blot analysis was performed to evaluate the bimolecular level interaction and extent and rate of specific protein expression. The ability to form biological apatite in physiological condition was observed with simulated body fluid (SBF). In-vivo bone formation behavior was investigated after implanting the materials inside rabbit femur for 1 and 3 month. The bone formation behavior was excellent in all the bioglass compositions, specially the composition with 60% $SiO_2$ content showed most promising trend.

One of the main causes of a limited use of nondestructive evaluation (NDE) technologies in bridge deck assessment is the speed of data collection and analysis. The paper describes development and implementation of the RABIT (Robotics Assisted Bridge Inspection Tool) for data collection using multiple NDE technologies. The system is designed to characterize three most common deterioration types in concrete bridge decks: rebar corrosion, delamination, and concrete degradation. It implements four NDE technologies: electrical resistivity (ER), impact echo (IE), ground-penetrating radar (GPR), and ultrasonic surface waves (USW) method. The technologies are used in a complementary way to enhance the interpretation. In addition, the system utilizes advanced vision to complement traditional visual inspection. Finally, the RABIT collects data at a significantly higher speed than it is done using traditional NDE equipment. The robotic system is complemented by an advanced data interpretation. The associated platform for the enhanced interpretation of condition assessment in concrete bridge decks utilizes data integration, fusion, and deterioration and defect visualization. This paper concentrates on the validation and field implementation of two NDE technologies. The first one is IE used in the delamination detection and characterization, while the second one is the USW method used in the assessment of concrete quality. The validation of performance of the two methods was conducted on a 9 m long and 3.6 m wide fabricated bridge structure with numerous artificial defects embedded in the deck.

Purpose: The underground air is the warm air discharged from the porous volcano bedrock 30-50m underground in Jeju, including excessive humidity. The temperature of the underground air is $15-20^{\circ}C$ throughout the year. In Jeju, the underground air was used for heating greenhouses by supplying into greenhouses directly. This heating method by supplying the underground air into greenhouses directly had several problems. The study was conducted to develop the heat pump system using underground air as heat source for resolving excessive humidity problem of the underground air, adopting the underground air as a farm supporting project by Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs(MAFRA) and saving heating cost for agricultural facilities. Method: 35kW scale(10 RT) heat pump system using underground air installed in a greenhouse of area $330m^2$ in Jeju-Special Self-Governing Province Agricultural Research & Extension Services, Seogwipo-si, Jeju. The inlet and outlet water temperature of the condenser, the evaporator and the thermal storage tank and the underground air temperature and the air temperature in the greenhouse were measured by T type thermocouples. The data were collected and saved in a data logger(MV200, Yokogawa, Japan). Flow rates of water flowing in the condenser, the evaporator and the thermal storage tank were measured by an ultrasonic flow meter(PT868, Panametrics, Norway). The total electric power that consumed by the system was measured by a wattmeter(CW240, Yokogawa, Japan). Heating COP, rejection heat of condenser, extraction heat of evaporator and heating cost were analyzed. Result: The underground air in Jeju was adopted as a farm supporting project by Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs(MAFRA) in 2010. From 2011, the heat pump systems using underground air as a heat source were installed in 12 farms(16.3ha) in Jeju.

본 논문에서는 단일 센서와 시간역전 원리를 이용하여 간단한 판에서 충격 위치를 결정할 수 있는 탐상법을 다루었다. 수치적인 시뮬레이션과 실험을 통하여 시간역전에 의한 충격위치와 그 주변에서 신호의 집속효과를 관찰하고, 충격위치 결정에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 인자들(가진력의 크기, 신호의 기록시간)에 대해 살펴보았다. 이러한 결과를 기초로 두 가지 다른 충격위치에 대한 실험을 수행하고 그 결과를 가시화하였으며, 실제 충격위치를 정확하게 결정할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 여기서 제안한 방법의 특징은 단일센서를 사용하는 것과 시험체의 형상과 물성을 몰라도 된다는 점이다. 또한 판에서와 같이 분산성의 다중모드 파동이 발생하는 경우에도 특정 모드나 주파수에 의존할 필요가 없다. 따라서 기존의 충격위치 결정법에 비해 많은 장점을 지니고 있다.

적응 필터링 기법은 시간에 따라 신호의 통계적 특성이 변화한때 많이 응용되는 신호처리의 분야이다. 적응필터의 성능 평가는 보통 구조의 복잡도 (complexity), 수렴 속도 (convergence speed) 및 오조정 (misadjustment)을 가지고 평가한다. 적응 필터의 실시간 구현을 위해서는 구조가 간단해야 피고 수렴속도는 빨라야 한다. 본 연구에서는 수렴속도 향상을 위해 변환 평면에서의 적응 필터링 기법에 대해 제안하였다. 먼저 CZT (Chirp Z-Transform)의 주파수 확대해석하는 특성과 DCT (Discrete Cosine Transform)의 실수연산 특성을 모두 가지는 CDCT (Chirp Discrete Cosine Transform)을 제안하였고, 이를 이용한 CDCTLMS (Chirp Discrete Cosine Transform LMS)을 제안하였다. 제안된 방법은 기존의 NLMS (normalized least mean square)알고리즘과 대표적인 변환평면 적응 필터링 방법인 DCTLMS (discrete cosine transform LMS) 알고리즘과의 학습곡선 (loaming curve)의 비교를 통하여 우수함을 입증하였으며 실제 초음파 신호처리에의 응용을 보였다.

Boron-doped diamond (BDD) electrode has an extremely wide potential window in aqueous and non-aqueous electrolytes, very low and stable background current and high resistance to surface fouling due to weak adsorption. These features endow the BDD electrode with potentially wide electrochemical applications, in such areas as wastewater treatment, electrosynthesis and electrochemical sensors. In this study, the characteristics of the BDD electrode were examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and evaluated by accelerated life test. The effects of manufacturing conditions on the BDD electrode were determined and remedies for negative effects were noted in order to improve the electrode lifetime in wastewater treatment. The lifetime of the BDD electrode was influenced by manufacturing conditions, such as surface roughness, seeding method and rate of introduction of gases into the reaction chamber. The results of this study showed that BDD electrodes manufactured using sanding media of different sizes resulted in the most effective electrode lifetime when the particle size of alumina used was from $75{\sim}106{\mu}m$ (#150). Ultrasonic treatment was found to be more effective than polishing treatment in the test of seeding processes. In addition to this, BDD electrodes manufactured by introducing gases at different rates resulted in the most effective electrode lifetime when the introduced gas had a composition of hydrogen gas 94.5 vol.% carbon source gas 1.6 vol.% and boron source gas 3.9 vol.%.

무선 센서 네트워크에서, 추가적인 하드웨어를 사용하지 않고 이동센서노드의 위치를 검출하는 가장 일반적인 방법들중의 하나가 수신 신호 세기를 기반으로 하는 위치 검출기법이다. 하지만, 노드 사이의 물리적인 무선 채널 특성에 따라 수신 신호의 세기가 다양하게 측정됨으로 신호의 세기를 이용하여 구한 두 노드간의 거리 데이터는 많은 오차를 포함하게 된다. 더 나아가 이를 이용하여 위치 검출을 수행할 경우 위치 추정 오차가 발생된다. 따라서 이러한 문제를 극복하여, 제한된 시스템 자원 내에서 노드의 위치 검출의 정확도를 개선시키는 방법이 필요하다. 이에 본 논문에서는 수신 신호 세기 기반의 거리 측정 방법의 단점을 극복하기 위해, 거리 데이터 신뢰도 정보를 활용하는 위치 검출 알고리즘을 제안한다. 시뮬레이션을 통하여 제안된 알고리즘이 기본 알고리즘보다 약 30%정도의 성능 향상을 제공할 수 있음을 보인다.

A high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) combined with ultraviolet (UV) method for the simultaneous determination of ${\alpha}$-cyperone and nootkatone was developed for the quality control of Cyperus rotundus Linne. The separation was performed on a KR100-$5C_{18}$ ($4.6{\times}250mm$) column, and an elution gradient composed of methanol and water with a flow-rate of 1.0 ml/min. Detection wavelength was set at 254 nm. The optimum extraction for the detection of the ${\alpha}$-cyperone and nookatone was achieved by ultrasonic with methanol for an hour. Two marker compounds ${\alpha}$-cyperone and nootkatone in Cyperi Rhizoma showed good linearity ($R^2$ >0.999) in the concentration range of $12.5{\mu}g/ml$ to $200{\mu}g/ml$. The developed method provided satisfactory precision and accuracy with overall intra-day and inter-day variations of 0.04~1.23% and 0.08~0.68%, respectively, and the overall recoveries of 97.45~105.58% for the two compounds analyzed. Additionally, a difference was observed in the cluster analysis and principal component analysis between Cyperi Rhizoma in Korea and China. The result demonstrated that the principal component analysis is useful to distinguish between Cyperi Rhizoma in Korea and China.
