  • The production of hydrogen fuel depends basically on the water electrolysis. The ultrasonic effects the decrease of the overpotential in a water electrolysis. A study on the overpotential which activates the hydrogen production is the core to elevate the hydrogen production efficiency on the principle. A pressure sensor system by a new idea is developed and applied. Solutions are 4 kinds of KOH concentration such as 0%, 10%, 20%, and 30%. Two frequency bands of the ultrasonic transducer are 28kHz and 2MHz. The directions of ultrasonic forcing are the vertical direction and the horizontal direction. The temperatures are two states, i.e., no constant and constant. Experiments are carried out sequentially in order in three cases of no ultrasonic forcing, ultrasonic forcing, and ultrasonic discontinution. In results, it is clarified that the ultrasonic effects the decrease of overpotential to elevate the efficiency of hydrogen production.

  • Isoeugenol, one of the phenylpropanoid derivatives has been known to inhibit the lipid peroxidation via scavenging effect on hydroxyl or superoxide radical production. We examined whether isoeugenol has a inhibitory effect against N-methyl-D-aspartate(NMDA)-, oxygen/glucose deprivation- and xanthine/xanthine oxidase(X/XO)-induced neurotoxicity or NMDA-induced $^{45}Ca^{+2}$ uptake elevation in primary mouse vertical cultures. We also evaluated whether isoeugenol exhibits inhibitory action on NMDA-induced convulsion in mice. Isoeugenol ($30{\sim}300{\mu}M$) attenuated NMDA- and X/XO-induced neurotoxicity by 11~85% and 83~92%, respectively. In the oxyge/glucose deprivation(60 min)-induced neurotoxicity, isoeugenol significantly(p<0.05) reduced by 32% at the maximal concentration. However, it failed to ameliorate NMDA-induced $^{45}Ca^{+2}$ uptake elevation. Isoeugenol(0.5g/kg, i.p.) delayed 6.5 times on the onset time of convulsion evoked by NMDA($0.1{\mu}g$) compared to that of control. These results suggest that the neuroprotective action of isoeugenol may be ascribed to the modulation of massive generation of reactive oxygen species(ROS) occurred during the ischemic or excitotoxic damage, not by directly affecting the NMDA receptor.

  • LTE-Advanced system has been deployed with 2 and 4 transmission antennas (Tx) while the specification supports up to 8Tx. Due to deployment space, antenna dimension and complexity, the needs of deploying 8Tx system has not been motivated by operators. Recently, three dimensional (3D) beamforming with active antenna has attracted significant attention in the wireless industry. By incorporating 2D active array into LTE-A systems, the system offers freedom in controlling radiation on elevation and horizontal dimension. When the number of antennas increases in the form of 2D arrangement, spatial separation can be realized simultaneously in horizontal and elevation domain and vertical beam-steering can increase SINR of UEs in high floors. In this paper, we study the system operations and implementations for supporting 3D beamforming with 8Tx antennas. In our schemes, by reusing the conventional CSI feedback framework, the system can operate 2D active array without harming the backward compatibility. Evaluation results show that 3D beamforming provides capacity boosting over the conventional 2D beamforming systems while keeping same antenna structure.

  • Sloshing behavior of liquid within containers represents one of the most fundamental fluid-structure interactions. Liquid in partially filled tanks tends to slosh when subjected to external disturbances. Sloshing is a vicious resonant fluid motion in a moving tank. To understand the effect of baffle positioned at L/3 and 2L/3 location, a shake table experiments was conducted for different fill volumes of aspect ratio 0.163, 0.325 and 0.488. For a fixed amplitude of 7.5 mm, the excitation frequencies are varied between 0.457 Hz to 1.976 Hz. Wave probes have been located at both tank ends to capture the surface elevation. The experimental parameters such as sloshing oscillation and energy dissipation are discussed here. Comparison is done for with baffles and without baffles conditions. For both conditions, the results showed that aspect ratio of 0.163 gives better surface elevation and energy dissipation than obtained for aspect ratio 0.325 and 0.488. Good agreement is observed when numerical analysis is compared with the experiments results.

  • This paper aims to numerically investigate violent sloshing in a partially filled three-dimensional (3D) prismatic tank with or without a baffle, further to clarify the suppressing performance of the baffle and the damping mechanism of sloshing. The numerical model is based on a Cartesian grid multiphase flow method, and it is well validated by nonlinear sloshing in a 3D rectangular tank with a vertical baffle. Then, sloshing in an unbaffled and baffled prismatic tank is parametrically studied. The effects of chamfered walls on the resonance frequency and the impact pressure are analyzed. The resonance frequencies for the baffled prismatic tank under different water depths and baffle heights are identified. Moreover, we investigated the effects of the baffle on the impact pressure and the free surface elevation. Further, the free surface elevation, pressure and vortex contours are analyzed to clarify the damping mechanism between the baffle and the fluid.

  • This paper is to evaluate an open space on university campuses enclosed within buildings, with respect to building elevation a wall of an open space including outer wall materials and window forms and an open space itself. It uses case study methods to periodically know specific details about open spaces and surrounding buildings elevation. It was found, at first, that it was emphasized vertical elements on window frames as well as building elements in an era of the 1910's to the 1930's. It, however, was changed into emphasizing on horizontal features in the era of the 1960's to the 1970's. Meanwhile the period from the 1940's to the 1950's was a turning point. The horizontal style was continued until the 1980s and the style was changed into various style mixed with various types. Secondly, an open space was recognized as a valuable design criteria for a construction of buildings in the 1930s to the 1970s. It was, however, a forgotten criteria during the late 1970's and the 1980's because of short age of the construction budget of the government. In the 1990's, the importance of open space design reappeared on the design of a block plan. Thirdly, a design style of an open space was authoritarianism using symmetrical and magnificent style in the 1910's to the 1930's. The time of 1945 to the 1950's was a turning point from authoritarianism to an idea of efficiency. In the 1960's and the 1970s, an idea of efficiency emphasizing their functions was prevalent to the design of buildings and open spaces and this trend was continued until the 1980's. A romanticism was realized on the design of an open space and surrounded building's.

  • 본 연구의 대상영역인 남해안의 조위 및 조류 수치모의를 위해 조석 보정용 모델인 NAO.99의 기존결과를 외해 개방경계 조건에 적용하였다. 조간대를 고려할 수 있고 $\sigma$-좌표계를 사용하는 EFDC 모형을 이용하여 2 km의 직교 정격자와 $0.5\sim2.0km$의 가변직교격자를 사용한 두 개의 격자망을 구축하였다. 조위수치모의 결과에서 예측값과 국립해양조사원 조위검조소의 관측값이 잘 일치하였으며 남해안 동측에서 서측으로의 조석의 전파를 보여주었다. 검증 결과 격자크기가 감소할수록 조위관측 자료와 더 높은 상관관계를 보였으며 0.5 km의 격자크기로 인한 수치모의 결과가 내만의 협수로 및 지형의 영향을 크게 받는 조류를 다소 과소 산정하는 경향을 가지는 반면에 넓은 수로 및 외해역 자료의 경우에는 2 km 격자로 조류의 적절한 재현이 가능하였다.

  • 최근 높은 수직정확도를 갖는 항공레이저측량 기술이 개발됨에 따라 이를 이용한 DEM(digital elevation model) 생성, 건물추출, 홍수위험지도 제작, 3차원 도시모델 구축 등의 다양한 연구가 활발하게 수행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 항공레이저측량으로부터 취득한 원시자료로부터 생성한 해상도별 DEM의 표준편차를 계산하기 위해 점비교법, 등고선비교법 그리고 1/5,000 수치지형도를 활용하였다. 비교결과 점비교법이 등고선비교법보다 낮은 DEM 표준오차를 나타냈으며, 이것은 등고선비교법이 점비교법에 비해 조밀한 격자 연산이 이루어지지 않은 것이 원인으로 파악되었다. 또한 1/5,000 수치지형도는 평균수평거리인 25.4m 이하에서는 점비교법과 등고선비교법에 비해 높은 오차를 보였으며, 25.4m 이상에서는 등고선비교법과 유사한 결과를 나타냄을 알 수 있었다.

  • The purpose of this study is to evaluate the regenerative capacity of reconstruction in the atrophied posterior maxilla by comparing bone graft procedures and alveolar distraction osteogenesis (ADO) techniques. We performed the autogenous iliac bone graft (AGB group, 5 specimens in 3 patients), and the combination (Mixed group, 3 specimens in 3 patients) of the autogenous and deproteinized bovine bone ($Bio-Oss^{(R)}$, Geistlich Co., Switzerland) as the ratio of 2:1 in the sinus floor elevation procedures. ADO procedures using $TRACK^{(R)}$ (KLS Martin Co., Germany) were also performed to augment vertical alveolar height in atrophied posterior maxilla (ADO group, 5 specimens in 4 patients). Newly generated bone tissues were obtained with the 2.0mm diameter trephine bur (3i Co., USA) during implant fixture installation after 5-7 months. Routine histolomorphological observation, immunodot blot assay for quantitative evaluation, and immunohistochemical staining with antibodies to MMP-1, -9, -10, TIMP-1, -2, and BMP-2, -4 were all carried out. Lamellar bone formation was well shown in all specimens and new bone formations of ADO group increased than those of other procedures. In immunohistochemical staining, the strong expression of BMP-2 was shown in all specimens, and immunodot blot assay showed that bone formation is accompanied by the good induction of factors associated with angiogenesis and appeared more increased amount of osteogenic and angiogenic factors in ADO group. ADO is the most effective technique for new bone formation compared to sinus floor elevation with autogenous or mixed bone graft in the atrophied posterior maxilla. In the quantitative immunodot blot assay, the regenerated bone after ADO showed more increased products of VEGF, BMP-2, PCNA and MMP-1 than those after the other procedures, and these findings were able to be confirmed by immunohistochemical stainings.

  • Remote sensing is the science and art of obtaining information about an object, area or phenomenon through the analysis of data acquired by a device that is not in contact with the object, area, or phenomenon under investigation./sup 1)/ EOC (Electro -Optical Camera) sensor loaded on the KOMPSAT-1 (Korea Multi- Purpose Satellite-1) performs the earth remote sensing operation. EOC can get high-resolution images of ground distance 6.6m during photographing; it is possible to get a tilt image by tilting satellite body up to 45 degrees at maximum. Accordingly, the device developed in this study enables to obtain images by photographing one pair of tilt image for the same point from two different planes. KOMPSAT-1 aims to obtain a Korean map with a scale of 1:25,000 with high resolution. The KOMPSAT-1 developed automated feature extraction system based on stereo satellite image. It overcomes the limitations of sensor and difficulties associated with preprocessing quite effectively. In case of using 6, 7 and 9 ground control points, which are evenly spread in image, with 95% of reliability for horizontal and vertical position, 3-dimensional positioning was available with accuracy of 6.0752m and 9.8274m. Therefore, less than l0m of design accuracy in KOMPSAT-1 was achieved. Also the ground position error of ortho-image, with reliability of 95%, is 17.568m. And elevation error showing 36.82m was enhanced. The reason why elevation accuracy was not good compared with the positioning accuracy used stereo image was analyzed as a problem of image matching system. Ortho-image system is advantageous if accurate altitude and production of digital elevation model are desired. The Korean map drawn on a scale of 1: 25,000 by using the new technique of KOMPSAT-1 EOC image adopted in the present study produces accurate result compared to existing mapping techniques involving high costs with less efficiency.
