  • 환자를 진단하는데 있어 중풍, 고혈압, 동맥경화, 고지혈증 등 혈관 질환에 대해서 혈류에 관한 정보는 매우 중요하다. 초음파를 이용하여 혈류 속도를 측정하는 방법에는 연속 도플러 시스템과 펄스 도플러 시스템으로 나뉘어진다. 펄스 도플러 시스템은 혈류의 위치정보를 얻을 수 있지만, 연속 도플러 시스템에 비해 하드웨어적으로 복잡하고 신호대 잡음비가 낮으므로 본 연구에서는 신뢰적인 정보를 얻을 수 있는 연속 도플러 시스템을 이용하였다. 본 시스템은 크게 아날로그 부와 디지털 부로 나뉘어진다. 아날로그 부는 초음파 신호의 발생부, 초음파 센서로 수신된 신호를 증폭하는 증폭부와 혈류의 도플러 신호를 검출하는 복조부, 잡음 제거를 위한 필터부분으로 구성되어 있다. 디지털 부는 검출된 아날로그 신호를 디지털 신호로 변환하는 부분, 디지털 신호처리 부분 그리고 개인용 컴퓨터(Personal Computer)와 통신하는 부분으로 구성된다. 본 연구에서는 효율적인 초음파 혈류 속도 측정 시스템을 구현함으로써 환자의 혈류 정보를 실시간으로 인을 수 있으므로 뇌혈류 측정 등에 사용되는 전산화 단층 환영장치(Computered Tomography), 자기 공명 영상 촬영장치(Magnetic Resonance Imaging)와 같은 장비와 더불어 보다 정확한 진단을 하는데 유용하다.

  • The feasibility of municipal sewage sludge digestion was investigated by using thermophilic anaerobic sequencing batch reactor(ASBR). One-day settle time was enough for the high performance of solid-liquid separation. The conversion of semi-continuous mode to sequencing batch mode is easily achieved without any adverse effects, although the large amount of sludge equal to the volume ratio of 0.3~06 to reactor volume was added in the feed step of the start-up. The ASBRs had higher conversion capability of organics to biogas than the control reactor. Gas yields of the ASBRs were increased by the average of 50% over the control reactor across a range of hydraulic retention time(HRT)s from 10days to 5days. The thermophilic reactors showed higher gas production than mesophilic reactor. Removal efficiencies of organic matter exceeded 80% on the basis of supernatants, except that at the reactor. Solid-liquid separation was essential in the performance of the ASBR, especially, at the lower HFT. The ASBRs were highly efficient in the retention of activated biomass within the reactor. thus compensating for increased equivalent organic loading rate through increased solids retention times followed by the increased solids, while maintaining shorter HRTs.

  • This study was focused on evaluating physical properties and SO$_{x}$ removal capability of porous lime filters prepared by a foaming and a gelcasting method. Porosities of lime filters ranged from 55% to 85%, and their mean pore sizes were about 95 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. It was observed that porous lime filters had the continuous pore structure that most pores were inter-connected by many windows. Before SO$_{x}$ removal reaction a surface of porous lime filters was made up of calcium oxide, but after reaction calcium sulfate became a main component. The SO$_{x}$ removal efficiency and the conversion ratio of calcium oxide to calcium sulfate increased according to reaction temperature and porosity. At 100$0^{\circ}C$, SO$_{x}$ removal efficiency of filters was always over 98% regardless of the porosity. In case of the filter with the porosity of 85%, the conversion ratios of calcium oxide increased according to the reaction temperature, and they were in the range 30% to 60%. to 60%.

  • The synthesis of N-(benzyloxycarbonyl)-L-aspartyl-L-phenylalanine methylester (Z-APM), a precursor of aspartame, from N-(benzyloxycarbonyl)-L-aspartic acid (Z-Asp) and L-phenylalanine methylester hydrochlolide($L-PM\cdot HCI$) was investigated in a saturated-ethylacetate single phase system using immobilized thermolysin. Among the various supports tested, glyceryl-CPG was found to be most efficient for retaining enzyme activity. The enzyme immobilized onto glyceryl-CPG also showed the highest activity for Z-APM synthesis in saturated ethyl acetate. Z-APM conversion yield in saturated ethylacetate was half of that obtained in an ethyl acetate-buffer two-phase system under the same reaction conditions. However, as the mole ratio of $L-PM \cdot HCI$ to Z-Asp was increased to 4.0, the conversion yield reached 95 %. When continuous synthesis of Z-APM was canied out in a plug flow reactor (PFR) with 80 mM of L-PMㆍHCI and 20 mM of Z-Asp in saturated ethylacetate (pH 5.5), more than 95 % of Z-Asp was converted to Z-APM with a space velocity of 1.16 $hr^{-1} at 40^{\circ}C$. Although the operational stability in PFR was reduced rapidly, more than 80% of initial activity was maintained in CSTR even after a week of operation.

  • This paper describes analysis and experimental characterization of low speed direct drive fractional slot concentrated winding (FSCW) surface permanent magnet synchronous motor (SPMSM) with consequent pole (CP) rotor, for which studies have been recently performed. The proposed motor, which consists of 30 poles and 36 slots, is analyzed and characterized by extensive 2D finite element analysis (FEA) and together with 3D FEA for an appropriate PM overhang length design. The validity of the analysis is confirmed by the corresponding experiments which fully characterize the proposed motor with excellent agreement between the FEA and the experiments. Thermal stability is also experimentally examined to determine continuous operating points and instantaneous operating points of the proposed motor. It is highly expected that the proposed motor is applicable for low speed direct drive applications.

  • Three recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains showing different levels of xylose reductase activity were constructed to investigate the effects of xylose reductase activity and glucose feed rate on xylitol production. Conversion of xylose to xylitol is catalyzed by xylose reductase of Pichia stipitis with cofactor NAD(P)H. A two-substrate fermentation strategy has been employed where glucose is used as an energy source for NADPH regeneration and xylose as substrate for xylitol production. All recombinant S. cerevisiae strains Yielded similar specific xylitol productivity, indicating that xylitol production in the recombinant S. cerevisiae was more profoundly affected by the glucose supply and concomitant It generation of cofactor than the xylose reductase activity itself. It was confirmed in a continuous culture that the elevation of the glucose feeding level in the xylose-conversion period enhanced the xylitol productivity in the recombinant S. cerevisiae.

  • Titania gel formations were prepared by sol-gel method using titanium(IV) chloride $(TiCl_4)$, and its characteristics were analyzed by varying the $epoxide/TiCl_4$ ratio and the amount of water In the end, titania $(TiO_2)$ aerogel were prepared using supercritical drying process. VOCs such as benzene, toluene, and m-xylene (BTX) were oxidized using prepared titania aerogel and commercially available $TiO_2$, and its performance was compared. The surface area, pore volume, and average pore diameter of 1,2-epoxybutane are significantly smaller than the propylene oxide. And the titania aerogels with 6 moi of epoxides have high surface areas, pore volumes, and average pore diameters. As a result of photo-oxidation, conversion of benzene was reached about $70\%$, and other reactants were reached about $60\%$ similarly. The conversion of BTX was increased as inlet concentration decreased. The reactivity of titania calcined at $600^{\circ}C$ was greater than $400^{\circ}C$ and $800^{\circ}C$. Water is required as a reactants for the oxidation of VOCs, and the continuous consumption of hydroxyl radicals required replenishments to maintain catalyst activity. The activity ratio increased with increasing reaction time when enough amount of water was present in the reactor.

  • Following is an idea to utilize the business ethics as one of business administration strategies. Firstly, conversion of perception is needed in the business administration. Neglecting the pursuit of profit, the conventional strategic goal, is not desirable, we need to, however, have a mind that the consumer and environment centered mind is indispensible to the survival and growing of a business ultimately in establishing a strategic goal of diversified environmental changes. Secondly, conversion of the Chief Executive Officer (CEO)'s attitude in business administration is needed. It is necessary for the CEO to have a strong belief that the business ethics is indispensible to the survival and growing of a business by way of fair and logical management. Therefore the business ethics should be improved since the CEO's ethics can be the standard of his business. Thirdly, the business concerned parties should be considered. The realization of business ethics should be done in a certain way so as to protect the benefit of the all concerned parties such as stockholders. employees, consumers, suppliers, competitors, the local community, etc., since a business is an organization that can exists and grows only in the coexistence with its environment and concerned parties. Fourth, the business ethics should be transformed into a business culture through the enlargement of the general principles of and of employees' behavior as a management strategy. Lastly, business ethics should be improved through continuous evaluations to accommodate its environmental change.

  • New concept of wind energy conversion system is proposed to increase the energy density at a given working space. The quality of wind for wind power generation is depend on its direction and speed. However, the quality is not good on land because wind direction is changeable all the time and the speed as well. The most popularly operated wind turbine system is an axial-flow free turbine. But its conversion efficiency is less than 30% and even less than 20% considering the operating time. In this research, a cross-flow type wind turbine system is proposed with a convergent-divergent duct system to accelerate the low speed wind at the inlet of the wind turbine. Inlet guide vane is also introduced to the wind turbine system to have continuous power generation under the change of wind direction. In here, the availability of wind energy generation is evaluated with the change of the size of the inlet guide vane and the optimum geometry of the turbine impeller blade was found for the innovative wind power generation system.
