Objectives: The purpose of this study was to evaluate airborne radon and thoron levels and estimate the effective doses of workers who made household goods and mattresses using monazite. Methods: Airborne radon and thoron concentrations were measured using continuous monitors (Rad7, Durridge Company Inc., USA). Radon and thoron concentrations in the air were converted to radon doses using the dose conversion factor recommended by the Nuclear Safety and Security Commission in Korea. External exposure to gamma rays was measured at the chest height of a worker from the source using real-time radiation instruments, a survey meter (RadiagemTM 2000, Canberra Industries, Inc., USA), and an ion chamber (OD-01 Hx, STEP Co., Germany). Results: When using monazite, the average concentration range of radon was $13.1-97.8Bq/m^3$ and thoron was $210.1-841.4Bq/m^3$. When monazite was not used, the average concentration range of radon was $2.6-10.8Bq/m^3$ and the maximum was $1.7-66.2Bq/m^3$. Since monazite has a higher content of thorium than uranium, the effects of thoron should be considered. The effective doses of radon and thoron as calculated by the dose conversion factor based on ICRP 115 were 0.26 mSv/yr and 0.76 mSv/yr, respectively, at their maximum values. The external radiation dose rate was $6.7{\mu}Sv/hr$ at chest height and the effective dose was 4.3 mSv/yr at the maximum. Conclusions: Regardless of the use of monazite, the total annual effective doses due to internal and external exposure were 0.03-4.42 mSv/yr. Exposures to levels higher than this value are indicated if dose conversion factors based on the recently published ICRP 137 are applied.

The material used in this study is dielectric and ferrite. Because of the unique characteristics of the material, it is easily exposed to external shocks and pressure, which cause damage to the product. However, after being processed under high-temperature environment repeatedly, the mechanical strength of the product is greatly increased due to the change of the electrical properties. In this paper, dielectric and bonded ferrite material was tested for the material properties. The equipment for this experiment was produced and tested to allow Cylindrical and Three-dimensional geometry of the product for the vacuum deposition. For Cylindrical shape of the product, in order to obtain the equivalent film thickness, the device is constructed in a vacuum chamber which gives arbitrary revolving and rotating capability. The electrical performance of the product is obtained through this process as well. However, as mentioned above, with repeating processes under high temperature and exposure to external environment, the product is easy to be broken. This experiment has enabled us to find out a stable condition to apply the communication of the RF high frequency to each of the core elements, such as Ferrite and Dielectric which is then used for the mechanical strength of the Raw material, hetero-junction material, Hetero-junction Ag Coating material and hetero-junction Ag Coating SiO2 Coating material respectively.

Man-In-Simulant Test(MIST) provides a test method to evaluate chemical protective equipments such as protective garments, gloves, footwear and gas mask. The MIST chamber is built to control concentration of chemical vapor that has a activity space for two persons. Non-toxic methyl-salicylate(MeS) is used to simulate chemical agent vapor. We carried out to measure inward leakage MeS vapors by using passive adsorbent dosimeter(PAD) which are placed on the skin at specific locations of the body while man is activity according to the standard procedure in MIST chamber. But more time is required for PADs and there is concern of contamination in PADs by recovering after experiment. Therefore detector for measuring in real time is necessary. In order to analyze in real time the contamination of the personal protective equipment inside the chemical environment, we have developed a wireless real-time gas detector. The detector consists of 8 gas-sensors and 1 control-board. The control-board includes a CPU for processing a signal, a power supply unit for biasing the sensor and Bluetooth-chipset for transmission of signals to external PC. All signals from gas-sensors are converted into digital signals simultaneously in the control-board. These digital signals are stored in external PC via Bluetooth wireless communication. The experiment is performed by using protective equipment worn on manikin. The detector is mounted inside protective equipment which is capable of providing a real-time monitoring inward leakage MeS vapor. Developed detector is demonstrated the feasibility as real-time detector for MIST.

EMC 시험을 위해서는 EUT가 정상적인 동작을 유지하고 있는 상황에서 EUT의 방사 특성과 내성 특성을 측정하게 된다. EUT의 정상적인 동작을 위해서는 무반향 챔버 외부에서 별도의 장비를 통하여 EUT를 동작시키고 상태를 모니터링해야 한다. 외부 장비는 1553B 통신, RS-485 통신, Ethernet 통신 등 다양한 통신을 통하여 EUT를 동작시키고 모니터링을 하게 된다. 이때 외부 장비가 통신 LINE을 통하여 잡음을 전달할 수 있다. 이러한 잡음은 연결된 전원케이블을 통하여 LISN에 전달되어 측정되게 된다. 또한 LISN에 연결단자를 통하여 방사되기도 한다. 이러한 경우 통신 LINE이 전원 LINE과 최대한 전자기적 격리를 통하여 잡음이 전달되지 못하도록 설계하여야 한다. 또한 외부 장비의 잡음이 통신 LINE을 통하여 챔버안으로 들어가는 것을 최대한 억압하야여 한다. 본 논문에서는 EMC 시험을 위하여 적용되는 외부의 EUT 시험장비의 설계 및 제작시 고려사항들에 대하여 설명하고 CE, RE를 포함한 시험을 통하여 설계 만족에 대하여 설명한다.

최근 PTW사에서는 물등가물질로 구성되어 있고, 측정체적(sensitive volume, $0.002cm^3$)이 매우 작은 MicroLion 액체이온함을 내놓았다. 본 연구의 목적은 외부방사선 치료용 광자빔에 대해 MicroLion 액체이온함의 선량선형성, 선량률의존성, 공간분해능, 그리고 출력인수와 같은 선량측정학적 특성을 조사하는 것이다. 이 결과를 Semiflex 이온함($0.125cm^3$), Pinpoint 이온함($0.015cm^3$), 다이오드 검출기($0.0025mm^3$)의 결과와 비교분석하여 소조사면 측정에 적절한지를 평가하고 자 하였다. Varian clinac 2300 C/D의 6 MV 광자빔에서 측정하였으며, MP3 물팬톰(PTW, Freiburg)을 이용하였다. 공간분해능은 반음영(penumbra)을 측정하여 평가하였으며, $0.5{\times}0.5cm^2$에서 $10{\times}10cm^2$까지 다양한 조사면에 대하여 측정하였다. 출력인수는 $0.5{\times}0.5cm^2$에서 $40{\times}40cm^2$에 대하여 측정하였다. 선량에 따른 MicroLion 액체이온함의 측정값은 선형적인 비례성을 보였다. 그러나 선량률은 100 MU/min와 600 MU/min에 의한 측정값의 차이가 최대 5%의 차이를 보였으며, 선량율이 커질수록 출력선량이 작아지는 결과를 보였다. 공간분해능의 경우 조사면 $0.5{\times}0.5cm^2$에서 $10{\times}10cm^2$까지의 측방선량분포 비교에서 Semiflex 이온함을 제외한 다른 모든 검출기들의 경우 2% 이내에서 일치하였다. 출력선량은 $2{\times}2cm^2$에서 $10{\times}10cm^2$ 조사면에서 Semiflex 검출기 대비 모든 검출기가 2% 이내에서 잘 일치하였다. 연구 결과 MicroLion 액체이온함은 물등가물질로 이루어져 있으며, 감응 면적이 매우 작기 때문에 소조사면에서 매우 유용할 것으로 사료된다.

Drying Shrinkage has much complexity as it has relations with both internal elements of concrete and external factors. Therefore, experiments on Concrete Drying Shrinkage are carried out in this study under simplified circumstances applying temperature & Humidity test chamber which enables constant temperature and humidity. Comparative analyses have been made respectively according to the consequences aiming at modelling for prediction of Concrete Drying Shrinkage and making out measures to reduce it. Strain Rate of Drying Shrinkage of concrete under the condition of dry air appears to rise by about 20%-30% in proportion as the temperature rises $5^{\circ}C$ when the humidity was held below 10% compared under the condition of dry temperature & Humidity test chamber. Strain Rate of Drying Shrinkage in pit sand concrete increased 20% higher than measured when in river sand under the condition of 90-day material age. A general formula with two variables is derived as follow ${\varepsilon}={\alpha}_1＋{\beta}_1x_1＋{\beta}_2x_2＋{\beta}_3x_1^2＋{\beta}_5x_2^2$. and also graphed in 3 dimensions, enabling to apply to actual design and predict Strain Rate of Drying Shrinkage in concrete. The results of prediction of Rate of Drying Shrinkage by Response Surface Analysis are as follows. The coefficient of correlation of Drying Shrinkage in Concrete was over 90%.

According to the national space program in Korea, is satellites will be launch into space up to 2015. Especially, KARI is going to develope of its own a high resolution camera of less than 1m to be mounted on next Multipurpose Satellite. When performing testing of large spacecraft or hardware that will be launched into orbit, it is necessary to conduct a testing with space-simulated environment. To achieve this requirement, thermal vacuum chamber is generally used. KARI has been developed a very Large Thermal Vacuum Chamber(LTVC) from 2003 to accomodate future space program, such as KOMPSAT, COMS, and Launch vehicles. This new facility will be used to qualify the first self developed High Resolution Camera, which will be loaded on KOMPSAT-3. To perform an optical test for space camera, it is necessary to provide vibration free environment. Thus the vibration responses on the optical table due to external vibration should be minimized by using a special isolation system. In this paper, we propose the concept design of vibration isolation system for the development of the high resolution camera.

A triboelectrostatic separation system using a fluidized bed tribocharger for the removal of PVC material in the mixture of PVC/PS plastics is designed and evaluated as a function of electric field strength, air flow rate, and the mixing ratio of two-component mixed plastics. It consists of a fluidized-bed tribocharger, a separation chamber, a collection chamber and a controller. PVC and PS particles can be imparted negative and positive surface charges, respectively, due to the difference in the work function values of plastics suspended in the fluidized-bed tribocharger, and can be separated by passing them through an external electric field. Experimental results show that separation efficiency is strongly dependent on the electric Deld strength and particle mixing ratio. In the optimum conditions of 150 Ipm air flow rate and 2.6 kV/cm electric field strength a highly concentrated PVC (99.1%) can be recovered with a yield of more than 99.2% from the mixture of PVC and PS materials for a single stage of processing.

Plants are grown under constitutive changing of environmental conditions and response to external conditions at both protein and transcription level. The effects of heat on plant growth are broad and influence the yield directly. Heat stresses could be classified depend on intensity and duration. Fundamental changes of growth condition by climate change maybe or maybe not classified as a stress on plant growth. The effects of a short and unanticipated impact of elevated heat on plant could be different with those of under longer extension of ambient heat. To examine differently expressed gene sets by ambient heat stress of soybean, we grow the soybean in normal condition for three weeks. After that, soybean plants move to growth chamber. The temperature of growth chamber increase up to $9^{\circ}C$ for four days. We have extracted mRNA and micro RNA every 24 hours and carried RNA sequence analysis. We found major metabolic pathways affected by ambient heat stress. Mainly carbon metabolism, translation machinery and amino acid synthesis are affected. We discussed the expression patterns of genes of heat sensing and hormone responses.
