  • Circulating Fluidized-Bed (CFB) boilers which have been operated in Korea were manufactured by the design technology of foreign leading companies. As they are not active to transfer their technology, domestic companies don't have the enough ability to design it independently yet. Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction Co. Ltd. and Korean Institute of Energy Research are trying to develop and improve the particle re-circulating device among the components of CFB boiler. Our purpose is to control the amount of particles leaving the re-circulating system by adjusting utility air and reuse the heat of circulating particles. The results of experiments with cold model system show that a fluidization state in the particle re-circulating device is very stable when the amount of utility air is supplied to its wind box with 2.29 times of minimum fluidization velocity. Also the amount of particles entering the riser don't increase linearly when the amount of utility air is supplied over 2.5 times of minimum fluidization velocity. Now we are testing its functional run with the hotstate experiment set-up.

  • A novel psychrotolerant Psychrobacillus strain PB01, isolated from an Antarctic iceberg, was comparatively analyzed with five related strains. The complete genome of strain PB01 consists of a single circular chromosome (4.3 Mb) and a plasmid (19 Kb). As potential low-temperature adaptation strategies, strain PB01 has four genes encoding cold-shock proteins, two genes encoding DEAD-box RNA helicases, and eight genes encoding transporters for glycine betaine, which can serve as a cryoprotectant, on the genome. The pan-genome structure of the six Psychrobacillus strains suggests that strain PB01 might have evolved to adapt to extreme environments by changing its genome content to gain higher capacity for DNA repair, translation, and membrane transport. Notably, strain PB01 possesses a complete TCA cycle consisting of eight enzymes as well as three additional Helicobacter pylori-type enzymes: ferredoxin-dependent 2-oxoglutarate synthase, succinyl-CoA/acetoacetyl-CoA transferase, and malate/quinone oxidoreductase. The co-existence of the genes for TCA cycle enzymes has also been identified in the other five Psychrobacillus strains.

  • Y-box binding protein 1 (YB-1) is a member of the cold-shock domain (CSD) protein superfamily. It participates in a wide variety of cellular events, including transcription, RNA splicing, translation, DNA repair, drug resistance, and stress responses. We investigated putative functions of YB-1 in HIV-1 replication. Functional studies using overexpression or knockdown of YB-1 in conjunction with transfection of proviral DNA showed that YB-1 enhances virus production. We found YB-1 regulates HIV-1 production by stimulating viral transcription using HIV-1 LTR sequence U3RU5 with Luciferase assay. We also identified a specific region from amino acids 1 to 324 of YB-1 as necessary for the participation of the protein in the production of virions.

  • Efforts have been made in this paper to develop the measuring device for the insulation performance of full scale NO96 LNG CCS. The facility was designed to maintain environmental conditions which are similar to operation conditions of full scale LNG CCS. In the facility, the heat sink boundary was kept cryogenic temperature by cold chamber which contains liquefied nitrogen and heat source boundary was made by external case heated by natural convection. Heat Flow Meter method (HFM) was applied to this facility, hence Heat Flux Sensors (HFS) were attached to specimen. The equivalent thermal conductivity of full scale NO96 unit box was targeted to measure and PUF of same size was used for the calibration test. Additionally, the finite element analysis was carried out to check the performance of the developed test facility and experimental results were also compared with those predicted by the numerical method.

  • A cDNA that was rapidly induced upon abscisic acid, cold, drought, mechanical wounding and to a lesser extent, by high salinity treatment, was isolated from Arabidopsis seedlings. It was classified as DREB subfamily member based on multiple sequence alignment and phylogenetic characterization. Since it encoded a protein with a typical ERF/AP2 DNA-binding domain and was closely related to the TINY gene, we named it TINY2. Gel retardation assay revealed that TINY2 was able to form a specific complex with the previously characterized DRE element while showed only residual affinity to the GCC box. When fused to the GAL4 DNA-binding domain, either full-length or its C-terminus functioned effectively as a trans-activator in the yeast one-hybrid assay while its N-terminus was completely inactive. Our data indicate that TINY2 could be a new member of the AP2/EREBP transcription factor family involved in activation of down-stream genes in response to environmental stress.

  • Generally, a box tube, which is used for an existing square CFT structure, is made by welding four plates. The manufacturing efficiency of this steel tube is poor, and it also needs special welding technology to weld its internal diaphragm and the through diaphragm. Therefore, an interior-anchor-type square steel tube was developed using the method of cold-forming thin plates to prevent welding of the stress concentration position, and to maximize the section efficiency. And, considering of the flow of beam flange load, the efficiency of erection and the weldability of the diaphragm to thin walled steel column, the external diaphragm connection was selected as the suitable type for the welded built-up square CFT column to beam connection. And, an analytical study and tests were conducted to evaluate the structural performance of the suggested connection details and to verify the suggested equations for the connection details. Through this study, the composite effect of the internal anchor to concrete, the resistance and stress distribution of the connections before and after the existing column is welded to the beam, the effective location of welding in connection were analyzed.

  • Recent Integral Field Spectroscopy (IFS) studies revealed that not only late type galaxies (LTGs) but also early type galaxies (ETGs) have various kinds of kinematic rotation. (e.g. not clearly detectable rotation, disk-like rotation, kinematically distinct core (Cappellari 06)) Among the various studies about galactic kinematics, one of the most notable anomalies is the star-gas misalignment. The gas forms stars and stars release gas through mass-loss. In this process, their angular momentum is conserved. Therefore, kinematic decoupling between stars and gas can occur due to external gas inflow or perturbation of components. There are some possible origins of misalignment: cold gas from filaments, hot gas from outer halo, interaction or merging events with galaxies and environmental effects. Misalignment, the black box from mixture of internal and external gas, can be an important keyword for understanding further about galaxies' kinematics and external processes. Using both SAMI IFS data(Sydney-AAO Multi-object Integral field spectrograph Galaxy Survey, Croom+12) and Horizon-AGN simulation(Dubois+14), we examined misaligned galaxies properties and distribution. Because the simulation has lots of galaxies at various z, we were able to study history of formation, evolution and extinction of misalignment, which was hard to be done with observation only.

  • This work presents a safety assessment of an underground tunnel subjected to a ballistic missile attack employing the numerical approach. For the impact simulation, a box shaped reinforced concrete (RC) structure with a cross section dimension of 8.0×10.0 m under a soil layer that was attacked by a SCUD missile was modeled using finite element (FE) software LS-DYNA. SCUD missile is one of a series of tactical ballistic missiles developed by Soviet Union during the Cold War, which is adopted for a short-range ballistic missile. The developed FE simulation for the penetration depth of the missile impacting into the soil structure was verified from the well-known formula of the penetration prediction. The soil-structure interaction, the soil type, and the impact missile velocity effects on the penetration depth of the missile into the different soil types were investigated. The safety assessment of the underground tunnel was performed with regard to the different depths of the underground tunnel. For each missile velocity and soil type, a specific depth called the unsafe depth was obtained from the analysis results. The structure beneath the soil beyond this depth remains safe. The unsafe depth was found to be increased with the increasing missile velocity.

  • 동토기반 말뚝기초의 지지력은 말뚝구조물 표면과 주변 토사의 접촉면에서 발현되는 동착강도에 의해 산정되며, 이는 동착-강도가 동토지반 기초설계를 위한 가장 주요한 설계정수임을 의미한다. 동착강도는 토사종류, 동결온도, 말뚝표면에 수직방향으로 작용하는 지중응력, 재하속도, 말뚝구조물의 표면 거칠기 등 다양한 인자들에 동시다발적인 영향을 받는 것으로 보고되고 있다. 1960년대부터 동토지반 기초설계를 위한 동착강도 산정방법들이 제안되어 왔으나, 대부분 동결온도와 말뚝구조물 표면특성에 대한 영향은 고려하고 있는 반면 동착강도의 주요 영향인자 중 하나인 지중응력에 의한 영향을 고려하지 않고 있어 소정깊이 이상의 말뚝기초 설계를 위한 동착강도 산정방법으로 활용되기에는 한계가 있는 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구에서는 동결온도뿐 아니라 지중응력이 동착강도에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위하여 직접전단시험기를 활용한 동결토 전단강도 및 동착강도 측정실험을 각각 수행하였다. 실험결과 전단강도와 동착강도는 모두 동결온도 조건이 낮아질수록, 혹은 수직응력 조건이 커질수록 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 전단강도와 동착강도의 정량적 관계분석을 위해 정의된 전단강도와 동착강도의 비 $r_s$는 초기 동결온도에서는 급격하게 감소하는 경향을 나타냈으나, 동결온도가 낮아질수록 증가하며 수렴구간을 형성해가는 경향을 보였다. 본 연구에서는 최종적인 연구결과로서 동결온도 및 수직응력 조건을 바탕으로 결정된 $r_s$값을 이용하여 동결토의 전단강도로부터 동착강도를 예측할 수 있는 방법을 제안하고 있다.

  • LCD TV와 컴퓨터 모니터에는 스크린을 밝게 할 목적으로 냉음극관이 장치되어 있는데 이러한 냉음극관 대부분에는 수은이 봉입되어 있으므로 폐 LCD의 재활용 시 적절히 취급되어야 한다. 아울러 이러한 폐 LCD내의 냉음극관의 처리는 2002년에 채택된 EU의 WEEE 와 RoHS 지침에 따라 취급되고 제거되어야만 한다. 본 연구에서는 폐 LCD의 몰드 프레임에 장착된 CCFL을 안전하고 효율적으로 제거한 다음 여기 함유된 수은과 형광체 화합물을 환경친화적으로 분리하여 무해화 처리할 수 있는 건식 공정을 개발하였다. 이를 통해서 실용적이고 경제성 있는 폐디스플레이 자원 재활용 통합공정 개발에 기여할 목적으로 CCFL 무해화 시스템의 설계 및 제작, 이를 운용한 수은/형광체 화합물의 환경친화적 무해화 처리 효율을 평가해 보았다. CCFL 무해화 시스템을 이용하여 처리된 CCFL내 잔류 수은의 양을 정량적으로 평가해 본 결과 무해화율 99% 이상을 달성하였다.
