Micro-electrical discharge machining (micro-EDM) is an effective method for machining all types of conductive materials regardless of hardness. Since micro-EDM is an electro-thermal process, the energy supplied by the pulse generator is an important factor in determining the effectiveness of the process. In this study, an investigation was conducted on the micro-EDM of tungsten carbide (WC) to compare the performance of transistor and resistance/capacitance (RC) pulse generators in obtaining the best quality micro-hole. The performance was measured by the machining time, material removal rate, relative tool wear ratio, surface quality, and dimensional accuracy. The RC generator was more suited for minimizing the pulse energy, which is a requirement for fabricating micro-parts. The smaller-sized debris formed by the low-discharge energy of RC micro-EDM could be easily flushed away from the machined zone, resulting in a surface free of burrs and resolidified molten metal. The RC generator also required much less time to obtain the same quality micro-hole in WC. Therefore, RC generators are better suited for fabricating micro-structures, producing good surface quality and better dimensional accuracy than the transistor generators, despite their higher relative tool wear ratio.

A 13-year-old spayed female American cocker spaniel dog was submitted to an animal hospital with a mass from left ear canal and enlarged left parotid lymph node. Given one-year history of odorous exudates and chronic otitis externa, total ear canal ablation was performed. Grossly, because of the neoplastic mass in both inner and outside of annular cartilage in external ear, vertical ear canal was severely narrowed. Histologically, there were numerous proliferated glands in the ear canal mass. Many neoplastic glands contained secretory vesicles on the free margin and necrotic cellular debris. Severe multifocal necrosis and strong invasion were also observed throughout the mass. Massive metastatic foci of glandular structures originated from ceruminous gland were presented in the enlarged parotid lymph node. Neoplastic glandular epithelia contained PAS-positive diastase-resistant eosinophilic cytoplasmic granules. Immunohistochemically, the neoplastic cells showed positive reactions for cytokeratin (CK) 7 and negative for CK 5/6. Based on the clinical implication and gross findings, histopathology and immunohistochemistry, this case was diagnosed as metastatic ceruminous gland adenocarcinoma in the American cocker spaniel.

A Lunar observatory not only provides ideas and experiences for space settlements from the Moon to Mars, but also puts the telescope in an optimal position to compete with space telescopes. Earth observation on the Moon's surface has the advantage of no atmospheric scattering or light pollution and is a stable fuel-free observation platform, allowing all longitude and latitude of the Earth to be observed for a month. Observing the entire globe with a single observation instrument, which has never been attempted before, and calculating the global albedo will significantly help predict the weather and climate change. Spectropolarimetric observations can reveal the physical and chemical properties of the Earth's atmosphere, track the global distribution and migration path of aerosols and air pollutants, and can also help detect very small space debris of which the risk has increased recently. In addition, the zodiacal light, which is difficult to observe from Earth, is very easy to observe from the lunar observatory, so it will be an opportunity to reveal the origin of the solar system and take a step closer to understanding the exoplanet system. In conclusion, building and developing a lunar observatory will be a groundbreaking study to become the world's leader that we have never tried before as a first step in expanding human experience and intelligence.

현장타설말뚝은 상부의 연약층을 관통하여 하부의 강한 암반층 상부에 거치시키는 경우, 말뚝은 선단지지말뚝으로 간주되며, 최소단면에서 말뚝에 발생하는 응력이나 실제 요구되는 설계기준에 따라서 작용하중은 결정된다. 연약하거나 풍화된 암반의 일정 깊이까지 현장타설말뚝을 설치하는 경우, 선단지지력과 주면저항력에 의해 지지력이 발현된다. 선단지지력 성분은 말뚝의 극한지지력에서 큰 비중을 차지한다. 그러나, 일반적으로 주면저항력은 선단지지력에 비해 훨씬 작은 말뚝 침하시 발현된다. 또한, 선단지지력은 근입부 바닥에 잔존하는 슬라임에 의해 영향을 받는다. 따라서, 근입부에 슬라임을 얼마나 잘 확인하는가와 시공법에 따라 선단지지력의 신뢰도는 결정되게 된다. 이것은 실제로 매우 어렵고 고가이며, 깊은 근입부에서는 더욱 심각하다. 따라서 이들 요소들로 인해서 작용하중하에서 말뚝의 거동은 주면저항력에 의해 지배되게 된다. 따라서 현장타설말뚝의 거동예측을 위한 연구는 주로 주면저항력 발현기구에 관심을 가지게 되는 것이다. 본 연구에서는 말뚝 두부에서의 하중 조건을 변화시켜가며 암반에 근입된 현장타설말뚝의 거동 차이를 분석하기 위하여 수치 해석을 수행하였다. 또한, 거칠기 요소의 모델링 유무에 따른 주면부 거동 특성도 조사하였다.

October 4, 1957 the Soviet Sputnik 1 was launched into space the first time in the history of mankind. After launching, the realm of humankind was expanded to space. Today all countries of the world wage a fierce competition in order to utilize space for various purposes. World powers of space such as United States, Russia, China, and Japan, put reconnaissance satellites and ocean surveillance satellites into orbit, being able to easily see equipment and troops movement on earth. Each country makes efforts to occupy space assets through the militarization of space and expand national interests. Recently private companies or individuals involved in commercial space activities are becoming more prevalent. Thus, in addition to space activities for military purposes, commercial space activities become widespread. Individuals and private companies as well as nations are also involved in space activities. Outer space is not the monopoly of space powers such as the United States and Russia. The whole human race can benefit from free access to space, being the common heritage of mankind. In particular, outer space becomes an indispensable element of military activities and human life. Many countries are now entering space development, putting a lot of budget into new development programs. Republic of Korea also built the Narodo Space Center, starting its space development with budget and manpower. We have to find out ways to use space not only for military purposes but also for commercial space activities that can contribute to the national economy. In addition, through the joint efforts of the international community, we have to make efforts for preservation and peaceful use of space. Various issues relating to space activities and research should be studies in order to contribute to the progress of humanity. Those issues include the definition of outer space, space debris reduction and environmental conservation issues, non-bind measure cooperation - European International Code of Conduct, space law and national legislation related empowerment issues, arms control measures in space, and restrictions on the use of nuclear fuel. We also need to be involved in the discussion of those issues as one of responsible space countries. In addition, we try to find out regional cooperation schemes such as the ESA in the Europe actively. Currently in the Northeast Asia, cooperation bodies led by Japan and China respectively, are operated in the confrontational way. To avoid such confrontation, a new cooperative body needs to be established for cooperation on space exploration and information. The system to allow the exchange of satellite information for early warning of natural disasters needs to be built as well. In addition, efforts to enhance the effectiveness of the relevant international treaties on space, and fill in the blanks in international space laws should be made at the same time. To this end, we have to do a leading role in the establishment of standards such as non-binding measures (resolution) - Code of Conduct, being discussed in the UN and other organizations, and compliance with those standards. Courses in aerospace should be requires in law schools and educational institutes, and professional manpower need to be nurtured. In addition, the space-related technology and policy needs to be jointly studied among the private, public, and military groups, and the cross exchange among them should be encouraged.

본 연구는 경상남도 밀양군에 위치하는 천황산 talus에 대한 수 차례의 현지조사를 통하여 그것의 지형적 특성과 성인을 분석하여 보았으며 주된 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 연구지역의 talus는 한반도에서 흔히 볼 수 있는 talus와는 상이한 지형적 경관을 보여준다. 둘째, 암설의 입경과 talus의 규모 그리고 사면경사는 비교적 큰 편에 해당된다. 셋째, talus 형성의 전제 조건인 금애면은 완전히 평행후퇴하여 지금은 소멸되었다. 넷째, 연구지역의 talus는 지난 빙기의 주빙하적 기후환경하에서 생성된 각력의 암설들이 rock fall 상태로 금애면 아래에 집적되어 형성되었다. 다섯째, 급애면의 완전소멸로 현재는 더 이상 암설의 추가공급이 이루어지지 않고 있을 뿐만 아니라 구성암설의 이동성도 인정되지 않아 지형발달단계상 화석지형화 단계로 파악된다. 결국 이러한 지형적 경관의 특이성은 본 지형의 형성프로세서와 지형적 발달단계를 설명하는데 중요하며, talus의 유형 분류에 큰 도움을 줄 수 있다.

연구지역에서 발달하는 테일러스들은 테일러스의 일반적인 특성을 잘 반영하고 있다. 우리나라에 분포하는 테일러스가 보통 rock fall talus이듯이 본 연구지역의 테일러스도 동일한 유형으로 판단된다. 또 테일러스의 사면형태, 형성시기 발달과정, 미지형적 특성 등은 지금까지 발표된 여러 연구결과들과 거의 일치하고 있다. 그러나 인접한 테일러스간의 경계 부분에서는 암설입경의 상대적 크기에 따라 약간의 지형적 차이점을 인식할 수 있었다. 특히 본 연구에서는 테일러스 암설 최적층의 내부구조를 국내 처음으로 확인하여 3가지의 뚜렷한 층위를 구분할 수 있었다. 즉, 암설로만 구성된 표층과 암실과 세립물질(실트질 모래)이 혼재된 중간층 그리고 과거의 토양층인 기저층 등으로 구분된다. 또 암설 퇴적층에 대한 내부구조 인식은 테일러스 형성 당시로 부터 현재까지의 기후환경과 암설의 퇴적양상을 밝히는데 매우 중요하며 앞으로 이 분야의 연구에 큰 도움을 줄 것으로 생각된다. 한편 국지적으로 특수기상이 나타나는 빙혈이 있는 빙계계곡의 경우 그것의 형성에는 단층작용의 역할이 중요한 것으로 판단된다. 그러나 이 곳을 흐르는 쌍계천이 유독 빙계계곡에서만 협곡(빙계계곡의 폭은 주변 곡쪽의 $1/8{\sim}1/10$정도임)을 형성하는 이유에 대해서 정곡의 가능성을 제시했지만 입증할 만한 자료가 없는 것이 유감이다.

Mineral composition and chemistry of the clay minerals in the three cores from the continental shelves of South Shetland Islands (NCS09) and Anberse Island (GC98-2), and from the fjord of King George Island (A10-01) were determined by X-ray diffraction and electron microprobe analysis in search of the distributions and origin of the clay minerals in the Antarctic marine sediments. Smectite content is relatively high in NCS09 regardless of core depths (av. 8.3%), but low in GC98-2 (1.1%). In Al0-01, smectite content is higher in the upper section than in the lower section. Kaolinite was not detected from all the cores in this study Yellow to yellowish green clay granules were commonly scattered in the sediments of NCS09 cores. The clays contain 16.97% and 2.53% $Fe_2$$O_3$와 $K_2$O. Average structural formula of the clay indicates ferrian beidellite . The (Fe, K)-rich smectite of NSC09 must have been derived from relatively young basaltic volcanics altered by reaction with seawater near Shetland Islands by glacial erosion or eolian process related to volcanic eruption. GC98-2 nearer to Antarctic continent is very low in smectite content. In A10-01, the lower diamicton was deposited from the glacial erosion of smectite-free ancient volcanics in the interior of King George Island, while the upper section was derived from the smectite-bearing terrestrial debris and eolian materials after retreat of glaciers in Marian Cove and ice cover in Barton Peninsula. Thehigh K contents of smectites suggest the interstratification of illite and smectite layers, which might be observed by future TEM lattice fringe imaging.

Among oil-degrading microorganisms isolated from oil-polluted industrial areas, one yeast strain showed high degradation activity of aliphatic hydrocarbons. From the analyses of 18S rRNA sequences, fatty acid, coenzyme Q system, G+C content of DNA, and biochemical characteristics, the strain was identified as Yarrowia lipolytica 180. Y. lipolytica 180 degraded 94% of aliphatic hydrocarbons in minimal salts medium containing 0.2% (v/v) of Arabian light crude oil within 3 days at 25$^{\circ}C$. Optimal growth conditions for temperature, pH, NaCl concentration, and crude oil concentration were 30$^{\circ}C$, pH 5-7, 1%, and 2% (v/v), respectively. Y. lipolytica 180 reduced surface tension when cultured on hydrocarbon substrates (1%, v/v), and the measured values of the surface tension were in the range of 51 to 57 dynes/cm. Both the cell free culture broth and cell debris of Y. lipolytica 180 were capable of emulsifying 2% (v/v) crude oil by itself. They were also capable of degrading crude oil (2%). The strain showed a cell surface hydrophobicity higher than 90%, which did not require hydrocarbon substrates for its induction. These results suggest that Y. lipolytica has high oil-degrading activity through its high emulsifying activity and cell hydrophobicity, and further indicate that the cell surface is responsible for the metabolism of aliphatic hydrocarbons.
