Background and objective: Vertical smart farm (VSF) is an alternative that contributes to solving various problems such as climate change and food shortage. This study focused on the types and awareness of VSF to introduce and diffuse VSF. We aimed to investigate the types of VSF and citizens' awareness on VSF. We analyzed 1) where the smart farm technology could be implemented on a building; 2) what citizens think about VSF; and 3) suggested what is most necessary for the introduction and diffusion of VSF in the future based on citizens' perception. Methods: VSF types were investigated through case studies on VSF in Korea and overseas. Citizens' perception on VSF was investigated through a questionnaire survey. A statistical analysis was conducted with the survey results for implications of the introduction and diffusion of VSF. Results: Four types of VSF were derived: rooftop farms, facade farms, indoor farms, and farms using the whole building. The survey showed that 29.2%, 27.8%, and 22.2% of respondents knew well about urban agriculture, smart farms, and vertical smart farms, respectively. Respondents answered that improving awareness is the most important factor to introduce VSF. According to the statistical analysis, it was determined that education and promotion of the necessity of VSF would be important to diffuse the VSF. Conclusion: VSF can be a solution to a variety of problems we face. The results of this study suggest a direction for the introduction and diffusion of VSF. In order to introduce VSF in the future, additional studies must be conducted on the legal system.

Recently, the use of LLCL filters for grid inverters has been suggested to give better harmonic attenuation than the commonly used L and LCL filters, particularly around the switching frequency. Nevertheless, this filter is mainly designed for constant switching frequency pulse width modulation (CSF PWM) methods. In variable switching frequency PWM (VSF PWM), the harmonic components are distributed across a wide frequency band which complicates the use of a high order filter, including LCL and LLCL filters. Recently, a confined band variable switching frequency (CB-VSF) PWM method has been proposed and demonstrated to be superior to the conventional constant switching frequency (CSF) PWM in terms of switching losses. However, the applicability of LLCL filters for this type of CB-VSF PWM has not been discussed. In this paper, the authors study the suitability of an LLCL filter for CB-VSF PWM and propose design guidelines for the filter parameters. Using simulation and experimental results, it is demonstrated that the effectiveness of an LLCL filter with CB-VSF PWM depends on the parameters of the filters as well as the designed variable frequency band of the PWM. Simulation results confirm the performance of the suggested LLCL design, which is further validated using a lab scale prototype.

Objective : The current study investigated the prevalence and clinical characteristics of sexual exhibitionism and frotteurism, which was conducted for the first time in Korea. Methods : Among 568 total subjects (mean age $19.28{\pm}5.0$ year), 109 were victims of sexual exhibitionism (19.2%, VSE) of which 57 were females (91.9 percent) ; and 57 were victims of sexual frotteurism (10.9%, VSF) of which 57 were females (91.9%). The participants completed the self-reported scale for epidemiological and clinical characteristics. Results : Incident frequencies of above two times of VSE and VSF were 49 (50.0%) and 20 (32.3%), respectively. Incident locations of VSE were school/office 37 (33.3%), street 28 (25.6%), and near home 20 (18.3%). Also, incident locations of VSE were inside of bus 12 (19.3%), subway 12 (19.3%), subway/bus station 8 (12.9%), near home 8 (12.9%), and school/office 7 (11.3%). Notifying rate of VSE and VSF to the police were 7.3% and 0%, respectively. Also, notifying rate of VSE and VSF to family or friends were 72.5% and 58.1%, respectively Conclusion : These results suggested that VSE and VSF had a common prevalence, which could be different from behavioral and emotional characteristics of a control group ; and the victims were shown to require an active intervention by supportive social system.

A Capacitor Commutated Converter (CCC) has less difficulty of commutation failure in comparison to the conventional line commutated converter. This paper proposes the Ar1R control of the CCC in the inverter operation, which deserves as the Ar1R of the conventional converter. The CCC can be operated in high power factor area by using the proposing Ar1R control. The voltage stability at an AC bus connected the CCC inverter is investigated and estimated its ability of preventing the AC voltage collapse. To estimate the voltage stability, this paper developed the simplified converter mathematical model and led the VSF index. The results shows that the AC voltage stability is guaranteed and enables the interconnection to an weak AC system, when compensation factor of the compensation capacitor is higher than 200%.

Broad Quantification Calibration(B.Q.C)은 SPECT/CT 장비에서 정량적인 평가(Quantitative Analysis)에 사용되는 표준 섭취 계수(Standard Uptake Value; SUV) 측정을 위한 Calibration 이다. Tc-99m, I-123, I-131, Lu-177 네 가지 핵종 별로 B.Q.C 를 시행한 후 SUV 가 정확하게 측정되는지를 검증하기 위해 팬텀 실험을 추가로 시행하였다. SPECT 장비를 위한 국제 기준이 아직까지 명확하게 마련되지 있지 않아 ACR Esser PET phantom을 이용하여 감마카메라 장비에서 사용하는 핵종 별로 SUV 측정을 위한 기반 작업을 수행하고자 하였다. 실험에 사용 된 SPECT/CT 장비는 SIEMENS 사의 Symbia Intevo 16과 Symbia Intevo Bold 두 장비이다. B.Q.C는 point source 를 이용하여 각 detector 에 감도를 인식시켜주는 sensitivity cal. 을 1 차로 시행하고, cylinder phantom 을 이용하여 Volume Sensitivity Factor(VSF)를 산출하는 volume sensitivity cal.을 추가로 시행한다. SUV 측정을 위해 ACR Esser PET phantom을 이용하여 Tc-99m, I-123, I-131, Lu-177 네 가지 핵종 별로 팬텀 영상을 획득하고, 배후방사능(BKG)의 SUV_mean와 네 개의 hot vial(25, 16, 12, 8 mm)에서의 SUV_max를 측정하였다. Intevo 16, Intevo Bold 두 장비간의 SUV 차이를 비교하기 위해 SPSS ver. 21(IBM company, USA)을 이용하여 Mann-Whitney 검정을 시행하였다. B.Q.C 시행에 따른 네 가지 핵종 별로, 각 장비와 Detector 1, 2 에서의 Sensitivity(CPS/MBq) 및 VSF 는 다음과 같다(Intevo 16 D1 sensitivity/D2 sensitivity/VSF, Intevo Bold 순). Tc-99m 에서는 87.7/88.6/1.08, 91.9/91.2/1.07, I-123에서는 79.9/81.9/0.98, 89.4/89.4/0.98, I-131에서는 124.8/128.9/0.69, 130.9, 126.8/0.71, Lu-177 에서는 8.7/8.9/1.02, 9.1/8.9/1.00 이었다. ACR Esser PET 팬텀 실험에서 SUV 결과는 다음과 같다(Intevo 16 BKG SUV_mean/25mmSUV_max/16mm/12mm/ 8mm, IntevoBold순). Tc-99m에서는 1.03/2.95/2.41/1.96/1.84, 1.03/2.91/2.38/1.87/1.82, I-123에서는 0.97/2.91/2.33/ 1.68/1.45, 1.00/2.80/2.23/1.57/1.32, I-131에서는 0.96/1.61/ 1.13/1.02/0.69, 0.94/1.54/1.08/0.98/0.66, Lu-177에서는 1.00/ 6.34/4.67/2.96/2.28, 1.01/6.21/4.49/2.86/2.21 이었다. 두 장비 간의 팬텀 실험 별 SUV 차이를 비교하기 위해 MannWhitney 검정을 시행한 결과, 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없었다(z=-0.338, p=0.735). 기존 감마카메라는 단면 영상의 육안적인 평가만 가능하였다면, SPECT/CT 영상을 통해 해부학적 정보와 3차원 단층 영상 획득 및 SUV 측정으로 정량 분석이 가능하게 되었다. 주로 사용하는 Tc-99m 뿐만 아니라 I-123, I-131, Lu-177 핵종에 대해서도 Broad Quantification Calibration 을 시행하여 핵종 별로 정량적인 정보를 획득 할 수 있는 기반 작업이 수행 되었고, ACR Esser PET phantom 실험을 통해 SUV 측정의 신뢰도에 대한 검증도 수행 되었다. 장비의 성능 및 정량분석의 재현성을 유지하기 위해 주기적인 장비의 정도관리가 필요할 것이며, 이를 통해 Bone SPECT/CT 뿐만 아니라 기타 다른 SPECT/CT 영상 검사의 추적관찰 및 동위원소 치료 분야에서도 치료반응을 평가하는 등의 많은 도움이 될 것으로 사료된다.

본 연구에서는 3차원 유한차분법(FDM) 프로그램인 FLAC3D를 이용하여 주방식 채광장을 모사하고 채굴적 형성에 의한 현지응력 교란으로 광주에 집중되는 수직응력의 변화를 분석하였다. 오차율과 해석시간을 고려하여 적절한 조합의 요소망 크기를 선정하고 지류론 암반을 모사하여 요소망 조합과 개발 심도에 따른 해석 성능을 검증하였다. 본 해석에서는 개발 영역 내에 1개(1×1)~ 121개(11×11)의 패널 광주가 생성되도록 채굴적을 형성하여 가장 높은 수준의 응력집중이 발생하는 중앙부 광주의 상부 수평단면에 작용하는 수직응력을 측정하였다. 40 m~320 m까지 40 m 단위로 굴착심도를 변경하여 동일한 과정을 반복 수행하였다. 해석 결과, 개발 규모(N_P)가 클수록, 개발심도(H_OB)가 작을수록 중앙부 광주의 수직응력 값이 지류론 추정값에 가까워지는 것을 확인하였다. 또한, 개발 규모가 작고 대심도인 경우에는 지류론에 의한 추정 시 수직응력이 과대평가될 수 있으며, 동일한 개발규모인 경우 심도가 증가할수록 수직응력계수(VSF)가 일정한 값으로 수렴하는 경향이 있음을 확인하였다.

This study proposes a voltage and reactive coordinative control strategy with distributed generator (DG) in a distribution power system. The aim is to determine the optimum dispatch schedules for an on-load tap changer (OLTC), distributed generator settings and all shunt capacitor switching on the load and DG generation profile in a day. The proposed method minimizes the real power losses and improves the voltage profile using squared deviations of bus voltages. The results indicate that the proposed method reduces the real losses and voltage fluctuations and improve receiving power factor. This paper proposes coordinated voltage and reactive power control methods that adjust optimal control values of capacitor banks, OLTC, and the AVR of DGs by using a voltage sensitivity factor (VSF) and dynamic programming (DP) with branch-and-bound (B&B) method. To avoid the computational burden, we try to limit the possible states to 24 stages by using a flexible searching space at each stage. Finally, we will show the effectiveness of the proposed method by using operational cost of real power losses and voltage deviation factor as evaluation index for a whole day in a power system with distributed generators.

To better understand the vortex-induced vibration (VIV) characteristics of a 5:1 rectangular cylinder, the distribution of aerodynamic force and the non-dimensional power spectral density (PSD) of fluctuating pressure on the side surface were studied in different VIV development stages, and their differences in the stationary state and vibration stages were analyzed. The spanwise and streamwise correlations of surface pressures were studied, and the flow field structure partitions on the side surface were defined based on the streamwise correlation analysis. The results show that the variation tendencies of mean and root mean square (RMS) pressure coefficients are similar in different VIV development stages. The RMS values during amplitude growth are larger than those at peak amplitude, and the smallest RMS values are observed in the stationary state. The spanwise correlation coefficients of aerodynamic lifts increase with increase of the peak amplitude. However, for the lock-in region, the maximum spanwise correlation coefficient for aerodynamic lifts occurs in the VIV rising stage rather than in the peak amplitude stage, probably due to the interaction of vortex shedding force (VSF) and self-excited force (SEF). The streamwise correlation results show that the demarcation point positions between the recirculation region and the main vortex region remain almost constant in different VIV development stages, and the reattachment points gradually move to the tailing edge with increasing amplitude. This study provides a reference to estimate the demarcation point and reattachment point positions through streamwise correlation and phase angle analysis from wind tunnel tests.

운전시간이 경과함에 따라 공극폐색 문제로 인하여 수직 흐름형 습지의 기능은 저하되는데 이와 같은 문제는 폰딩(ponding)이나 월류 현상에 의하여 쉽게 관측할 수 있다. 공극폐색 잠재성을 조사하기 위하여 도로주변에 설치된 파일럿 규모의 습지 운전자료를 분석하였다. 습지에는 각각 우드칩과 마사(부석), 그리고 화산석을 충진하였다. 약 7개월 동안 도로 강우유출수 처리시험을 수행한 후 충진된 여재를 비운 후 여재 층별로 분류하여 여재에 의해 포획된 고형물 입자의 양과 특성을 분석하였다. 분석결과 대부분의 포획물질은 외부기인 부유물질 이었으며 다음으로 여재표면에 증식한 생물막인 것으로 나타났다. 특히 다른 여재와 비교하여 유기성 여재인 우드칩에서 생물막의 증식이 왕성하였다. 또한 전체 포획량 중 30% 이상이 상부 20cm 이내에 집중되어 있어 폐색으로 인한 폰딩 발생시 이 부분의 여재를 우선적으로 교체하여야 할 것으로 판단된다. 또한 모델계산 결과 우드칩 충진 습지에서 폐색에 도달하는데 약 2달 정도가 소요될 것으로 산출되었으나 실제로는 전혀 폐색 기미는 발생하지 않았는데 이는 강우시에만 운영되는 특성상 강우활동이 없는 무강우 기간 동안 포획된 유기물질이나 생물막이 자연적으로 분해되어 일정기간이 경과되면 공극이 회복되었다.
