정위적 방사선수술(stereotactic radiosurgery, SRS)은 정위적 기구를 이용해 환자를 고정시킨 후 한번에 고선량의 방사선을 병변에 조사하는 방사선 치료법이다. 일반적인 방사선 치료와 달리 단 한번의 조사로 고선량의 방사선이 환자에게 주어지므로 정확한 수술계획의 수립이 필요하다. 현재, 수술계획은 사람이 직접 시행착오를 거듭하며 수립되고 있다. 이로 인해 계획의 재연성과 신뢰성에 문제가 재기되고 있으며, 이를 해결하고자 컴퓨터를 활용한 수술계획 최적화 방법들이 제안되어 왔다. 그러나 기존의 방법들은 최종적인 수출계획을 얻을 때까지 많은 시간이 필요하고 사용되는 수학적 알고리듬의 한계로 국소적 최적해를 최종해로 산출해 낼 위험성을 가지고 있다. 이를 해결하기 위해 이상표적모델을 활용한 정위적 방사선수술계획 최적화 방법을 연구하였다. 병소의 다양한 모양을 근사시킬 이상표적모델을 구형과 원통형, 원뿔형, 타원체의 4종류 가정하였다. 회전중심점(isocenter)을 여러 개 사용하여 이상표적모델을 50％ 등선량 내에 포함시키고, 이 조건을 만족하는 경우의 회전중심점의 위치, 콜리메이터 크기를 데이터베이스화 하였다. 병소가 주어질 경우 기하학적 비교를 통해 병소의 모양을 가장 잘 나타낼 수 있는 이상표적모델, 또는 이상표적모델의 조합을 결정한 후 병소를 근사화하는 과정을 개발하였다. 이후 각 이상표적모델에 대해 데이터베이스에 구축되어 있는 최적변수들을 찾아 회전중심점을 배치시키고 실제 병소에 맞게 최종적인 수정을 통해 최적화 과정을 마치도록 하였다. 이 과정을 가상 표적에 대해 수행한 결과 뛰어난 결과를 보이진 않았으나 회전중심점에 대한 간단한 변화만으로 만족할 만한 결과를 나타내었다. 이는 직접적인 수술에 사용될 수는 없을지라도 수술계획을 함에 있어 최적화 과정의 시작점(Starting Point)으로 받아들이기에 만족할 만한 결과이다.

High-resolution (3.5 kHz) subbottom profiles were analyzed in order to reveal sedimentation pattern of late Quaternary in the northern South Shetland continental margin and the South Scotia Sea, Antarctica. On the basis of clarity, continuity and geometry of surface and subbottom echoes together with seafloor topography, high-resolution echo characters are classified into eight echo types which represent rock basements (echo type III-1), coarse-grained subglacial till or moraine (echo type I-1), slides/slumps (echo type IV), debris-flow deposits (echo types II-3 and III-2), and bottom-current deposits (echo types I-2, II-1 and II-2). Subglacial till or moraine (echo type I-1) is mostly present in the lower continental shelf and upper continental slope of the northern South Shetland continental margin, which changes downslope to slides/slumps (echo type IV) and debris-flow deposits (echo types II-3 and III-2) in the middle to lower continental slope. This distribution suggests that the continental slopes of the northern South Shetland continental margin were mostly affected by downslope gravitational processes. Further downslope, bottom-current sediments (echo type I-2) deposited by the southwestward flowing Antarctic Deep Water (ADW) occur at the South Shetland Trench, reflecting an Interaction between mass flows and bottom currents in the area. In contrast to the northern South Shetland continental margin, the South Scotia Sea is dominated by bottom-current deposits (echo types II-1 and II-2), indicating that the sedimentation was mostly controlled by the westward flowing ADW. Flow intensity of the ADW has increased in the relative topographic highs, forming thin covers of coarse-grained contourites (echo type II-1), whereas it has decreased in the relative topographic lows, depositing thick, fine-grained contourites (echo type II-2). The poor development of wave geometry in the fine-grained bottom-current deposits (echo type II-2) is suggestive of the unsteady nature of the ADW flow.

The common-rail injectors are the most critical component of the CRDI diesel engines that dominantly affect engine performances through high pressure injection with exact control. Thus, from now on the advanced combustion technologies for common-rail diesel injection engine require high performance fuel injectors. Accordingly, the previous studies on the numerical and experimental analysis of the diesel injector have focused on a optimum geometry to induce proper injection rate. In this study, computational predictions of performance of the diesel injector have been performed to evaluate internal flow characteristics for various needle lift and the spray pattern at the nozzle exit. To our knowledge, three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model of the internal flow passage of an entire injector duct including injection and return routes has never been studied. In this study, major design parameters concerning internal routes in the injector are optimized by using a CFD analysis and Response Surface Method (RSM). The computational prediction of the internal flow characteristics of the common-rail diesel injector was carried out by using STAR-CCM+7.06 code. In this work, computations were carried out under the assumption that the internal flow passage is a steady-state condition at the maximum needle lift. The design parameters are optimized by using the L16 orthogonal array and polynomial regression, local-approximation characteristics of RSM. Meanwhile, the optimum values are confirmed to be valid in 95% confidence and 5% significance level through analysis of variance (ANOVA). In addition, optimal design and prototype design were confirmed by calculating the injection quantities, resulting in the improvement of the injection performance by more than 54%.

우수한 역학적 성능을 가진 생물체의 구조를 모방하여 고성능의 복합재료를 개발하려는 노력이 최근 활발히 이뤄지고 있다. 진주층 구조는 구성재료 대비 월등히 높은 파괴인성을 지닌다는 점에서 촉망받는 자연 모사 구조 중 하나이다. 하지만, 진주층 모사 구조의 형상이 변형될 때 구조의 충격성능이 어떻게 달라지는지에 관한 연구는 아직 충분히 진행되지 않았다. 본 연구에서는 무작위로 변형된 진주층 모사 복합재의 수치모델을 개발하고 충격성능을 분석하였다. 먼저, 균일한 진주층 모사 패턴에서 플레이트 판의 평면 크기를 무작위로 변형하는 알고리즘을 개발하고 이를 활용하여 불균일한 진주층 패턴 모사 구조를 모델링하였다. 그 후, 낙하충격 시뮬레이션을 수행하고 해당 모델의 충격거동을 에너지 흡수율과 본 미세스 응력 분포, 충격력-시간 그래프를 활용하여 평가하였다. 수치해석결과를 바탕으로, 충돌 범위 주변 플레이트 판의 기하학적 형상이 불균일할수록 진주층 모사 구조의 내충격성이 저하됨을 입증하였다. 이러한 진주층 모사 형상에 대한 심층적인 이해는 진주층 모사 구조의 최적설계를 수립하는 데 효율적으로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Safety is a big issue in the construction sites. For safe and secure management, tracking locations of construction resources such as labors, materials, machineries, vehicles and so on is important. The materials, machineries and vehicles could be controlled by computer, whereas the movement of labors does not have fixed pattern. So, the location and movement of labors need to be monitored continuously for safety. In general, Global Positioning System(GPS) is an opt solution to obtain the location information in outside environments. But it cannot be used for indoor locations as it requires a clear Line-Of-Sight(LOS) to satellites Therefore, indoor location monitoring system could be a convenient alternative for environments such as tunnel and indoor building construction sites. This paper presents a case study to investigate feasibility of Wi-Fi based indoor location monitoring system in construction site. The system is developed by using fingerprint map of gathering Received Signal Strength Indication(RSSI) from each Access Point(AP). The signal information is gathered by Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tags, which are attached on a helmet of labors to track their locations, and is sent to server computer. Experiments were conducted in a shield tunnel construction site at Guangzhou, China. This study consists of three phases as follows: First, we have a tracking test in entrance area of tunnel construction site. This experiment was performed to find the effective geometry of APs installation. The geometry of APs installation was changed for finding effective locations, and the experiment was performed using one and more tags. Second, APs were separated into two groups, and they were connected with LAN cable in tunnel construction site. The purpose of this experiment was to check the validity of group separating strategy. One group was installed around the entrance and the other one was installed inside the tunnel. Finally, we installed the system inner area of tunnel, boring machine area, and checked the performance with varying conditions (the presence of obstacles such as train, worker, and so on). Accuracy of this study was calculated from the data, which was collected at some known points. Experimental results showed that WiFi-based indoor location system has a level of accuracy of a few meters in tunnel construction site. From the results, it is inferred that the location tracking system can track the approximate location of labors in the construction site. It is able to alert the labors when they are closer to dangerous zones like poisonous region or cave-in..

Dissolved air flotation (OAF) is a solid-liquid separation system that uses fine bubbles rising from bottom to remove particles in water. In this study, we investigated the effect of L/W (L; Length, W; Width) on the hydro-dynamic behavior in DAF system using CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) and ADV (Acoustic Doppler Velocimetry) technique. The factual full-scale DAF system, L/W ratio of 1:1, was selected and various L/W ratio (2:1, 3:1, 4:1 and 5:1) conditions were simulated with CFD. For modelling, 2-phase (gas-liquid) flow equations for the conservation of mass, momentum and turbulence quantities were solved using an Eulerian-Eulerian approach based on the assumption that very small particle is applied in the DAF system. Also, for verification of CFD simulation results, we measured the factual velocity at some points in the full-scale DAF system with ADV technique. Both the simulation and the measurement results were in good accordance with each other. As the results of this study, we concluded that L/W ratio and outlet geometry play important role for flow pattern and fine bubble distribution in the flotation zone. In the ratio of 1:1, the dead zone is less than those in other cases. On the other hands, in the ration of 3:1, the fine bubbles were more evenly distributed.

Mario Botta is one of the modern architects who established his own architectural world on the basis of the architectural spirit of Modernism. His works have been a good theme not only for those who study architecture but also for those who study the relationship between architecture and the surrounding environment and there have been many published papers and reports on his works. However, most of them stressed on the importance of the external appearance of architecture or on the relationship between architecture and the surrounding environment. There have been relatively few studies that have dealt intensively with interior space. The aim of this study is to find the characteristics of interior space in public buildings that were designed by Botta and to analyze them from the view design principles and design elements. For this purpose, the five most important public buildings were selected and the public space of the building like the central hall, the lobby, and the foyer were analyzed. Through this study, the followings are realized. A) Spatial features: $\circled1$ Refined and graceful interiors where the principle of symmetry was applied, $\circled2$ Centripetal interiors surrounded by thick walls, $\circled3$ Interior design lit by skylights above the central area, B) Formative features: $\circled1$ The shapes of the external and internal spaces are identical, $\circled2$ Simple geometrical shapes were applied in defining the shapes of internal spaces, $\circled3$ Skylights and light wells were combined and were utilized as form elements, $\circled4$ Architectural vocabularies of Corbusier such as stairs, round pillars, and bridges were developed and utilized, $\circled5$ Utilized the geometry that resembled his architecture as a form element to the furniture, C) material pattern features: $\circled1$ Plainly expressed the patterns of bricks that appear in the course of construction, $\circled2$ Made and used horizontal stripe patterns using stones of different colors.

The wind industry grew in the first decade of the 21st century at rates consistently above 20% a year. For wind turbine, gearbox failure can be extremely costly in terms of repair costs, replacement parts, and in lost power production due to downtime. In this paper, gear tooth micro-modification for the high speed stage was used to compensate for the deformation of the teeth due to load and to ensure a proper meshing to achieve an optimized tooth contact pattern. The gearbox was firstly modeled in a software, and then the various combined tooth modification were presented, and the prediction of transmission under the loaded torque for the helical gear pair was investigated, the normal load distribution and root stress were also obtained and compared before and after tooth modification under one torque. The simulation results showed that the transmission error and normal load distribution under the load can be minimized by the appropriate tooth modification. It is a good approach where the simulated result is used to improve the design before the prototype is available for the test.
