An experimental study is carried out to investigate the near-wake characteristics of a NACA 0018 foil with a flat plate. Two-frame grey-level cross correlation PIV method is used to measure the local flow characteristic around a pitch damping foil to control the vertical motion of high speed crafts in a circulating water channel. The analysis also includes angles of attack 10 and 20 degrees respectively. Reynolds number $Re{\fallingdotseq}3.5{\times}10^4$ based on the chord length(C=100mm) of NACA0018 has been applied during the whole experiments. The distance between the foil and the flat plate is D/C=0.5, 1.0 and 1.5 respectively. The channel effect according as the distance between the foil and the flat plate has a close relation with the velocity distributions around the foil. In the wake of 20-degree of attack, the complex turbulent flow and a thick boundary layer are formed due to the processes of vortex generation and dissipation.

In general, when wood products are used outdoors for a certain period of time the surface color of wood changes due to light, water, heat and so on. This color change can be considered importantly for the product's market value. In this study, the color change of ACQ (Alkaline Copper Quaternary) and CBHDO (CuO $H_3BO_3$ N-cyclohexyldiazenium-anion) treated wood and untreated wood was investigated during 2-year weathering test. From this experimental study, it was found that the colors of the treated wood changed more reddish and yellowish from green. Meanwhile, the untreated wood turned to grey color rapidly. Also, the color of the treated wood in short-term exposure changed closer to the inherent color of the fresh natural wood than that of the untreated woods.

Shallow-water bathymetry survey has been conducted using high definition color images obtained at the altitude of 100 m above sea level using a drone. Shallow-water bathymetry data are one of the most important input data for the research of beach erosion problems. Especially, accurate bathymetry data within closure depth are critically important, because most of the interesting phenomena occur in the surf zone. However, it is extremely difficult to obtain accurate bathymetry data due to wave-induced currents and breaking waves in this region. Therefore, optical remote sensing technique using a small drone is considered to be attractive alternative. This paper presents the potential utilization of image processing algorithms using multi-variable linear regression applied to red, green, blue and grey band images for estimating shallow water depth using a drone with HD camera. Optical remote sensing analysis conducted at Wolpo beach showed promising results. Estimated water depths within 5 m showed correlation coefficient of 0.99 and maximum error of 0.2 m compared with water depth surveyed through manual as well as ship-board echo-sounder measurements.

Soft rot caused by Rhizopus oryzae occurred on unshiu orange (Citrus unshiu Marc.) sampled from commercial markets in Jinju, Korea, 2010. The first symptom of soft rot on orange is a water-soaked appearance of the affected tissue. The infected parts later disintegrated into a mushy mass of disorganized cells followed by rapid softening of the diseased tissue. The lesion on orange was rapidly softened and rotted, then became brown or dark brown. Optimum temperature for mycelial growth of the causal fungus on potato dextrose agar was $30^{\circ}C$ and growth was still apparent at $37^{\circ}C$. Sporangiophores were $6{\sim}20\;{\mu}m$ in diameter. Sporangia were globose and $40{\sim}200\;{\mu}m$ in size. The color of sporangia was brownish-grey to blackish-grey at maturity. Sporangiospores were sub-globose, brownish- black streaked and $4{\sim}10\;{\mu}m$ in size. Columella were globose to sub-globose and $85{\sim}120\;{\mu}m$ in size. On the basis of mycological characteristics, pathogenicity test, and the ITS sequence analysis, the causal fungus was identified as Rhizopus oryzae. To our knowledge, this is the first report of soft rot caused by R. oryzae on unshiu orange in Korea.

The multi-storied Daewonsa stone pagoda (Treasure No. 1112) in the Sancheong, Korea was studied on the basis of deterioration and geological safety diagnosis. The stone pagoda is composed mainly of granitic gneiss, partly fine-grained granitic gneiss, leucocratic gneiss, biotite granite and ceramics. Each rock of the pagoda is highly exfoliated and fractured along the edges. Some fractures in the main body and roof stones are treated by cement mortar. This pagoda is strongly covered with yellowish to reddish brown tarnish due to the amorphous precipitates of iron hydroxides. Dark grey crust by manganese hydroxides occur Partly, and some Part coated with white grey gypsum and calcite aggregates from the reaction of cement mortar and rain. As the main body, roof and upper part of the pagoda, the rocks are developed into the radial and linear cracks. Surface of this pagoda shows partly yellowish brown, blue and green patchs because of contamination by algae, lichen, moss and bracken. Besides, wall-rocks of the Daewonsa temple and rock aggregates in the Daewonsa valley are changed reddish brown color with the same as those of the pagoda color. It suggests that the rocks around the Daewonsa temple are highly in iron and manganese concentrations compared with the normal granitic gneiss which color change is natural phenomena owing to the oxidation reaction by rain or surface water with rocks. Therefore, for the attenuation of secondary contamination, whitening and reddishness, the possible conservation treatments are needed. Consisting rocks of the pagoda would be epoxy to reinforce the fracture systems for the structural stability on the basements.

The objective of this study is to analyse the flow field in the branching duct by visualizing the flow phenomena using the PIV system. A bifurcation model is fabricated with transparent acrylic resin to visualize the whole flow field with the PIV system. Water was used as the working fluid and the conifer powder as the tracer particles. The single-frame and two-frame methods of the PIV system and 2-frame of the grey level correlation method are applied to obtain the velocity vectors from the images captured in the flow filed. The velocity distributions in a lid-driven cavity flow are compared with the so-called standard experimental data, which was obtained from by 4-frame method in order to validate experimental results of the PIV measurements. The flow patterns of a Newtonian fluid in a branching duct were successfully visualized by using the PIV system and the sub-pixel and the area interpolation method were used to obtain the final velocity vectors. The velocity vectors obtained from the PIV system are in good agreement with the numerical results of the 3-dimensional branch flow. The results of numerical analyses and the PIV experiments for the three-dimensional flows in the branch ing duct show the recirculation zone distal to the branching point and the sizes of the recirculation length and height of the tow different methods are in good agreement.

Different studies have been conducted regarding caffeine as psychostimulant drugs and its effects as well as determination in various materials. Since, coffee and tea are most drinkable beverage in the world and their major constituent is caffeine. So, analysis of the effect of equal amount of caffeine in coffee and tea with respect to SD rats was studied. The present methodology was purposed to determine and validate caffeine amount in different brands of coffee and tea, and canvass locomotor and behavioral patterns of SD rats after administrating coffee and tea orally consisting of same amount of caffeine (10, 30 mg/kg). Determination of caffeine in different brands of coffee and tea and validation of caffeine were evaluated using HPLC. Depending upon different brands of tea and coffee, caffeine amount was altered. Meanwhile, amount of caffeine in tea was directly proportional to the temperature of liquid. Coffee and tea (Instant Maxim original coffee$^{(R)}$ and earl grey black tea$^{(R)}$) consisting 10, 30 mg/kg of caffeine were studied in SD rats for locomotor activity and behavioral patterns using Tru Scan 99. The locomotor activities of SD rats were increased after administration of coffee and tea consisting caffeine compared to water. The coffee consisted of higher amount of caffeine exhibited steep movement of SD rats. Similarly, rearing and scratching of SD rats as frequency and duration were increased in coffee and tea consisting caffeine compared with water. The study revealed that coffee and tea had effects in locomotor activity and behavioral patterns of SD rats.

전 세계적으로 식량과 물 안보에 대한 중요도가 높아지고 있으며 이에 따라 물발자국은 식량과 물을 연계하는 요소로서 거론되고 있다. 물발자국은 제품이 생산되는 과정동안에 사용되는 물의 양을 의미하며 $m^3/ton$으로 표현한다. 이러한 물발자국은 작물 필요수량 및 생산량을 기반으로 산정되기 때문에 기후변화와 밀접한 관계가 있다. 따라서 농업 및 수자원 계획 분야에서 물발자국의 활용성을 높이기 위해서는 기후변화에 따른 우리나라 농산물의 물발자국 변화를 살펴보는 것이 필요하다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 기후변화에 따른 논벼의 농업용수량 및 생산량 산정을 통하여 미래의 녹색 및 청색 물발자국을 산정하고, 시기 및 시나리오별 불확실성 및 민감도를 평가하고자 하였다. 기후변화 시나리오는 RCP 기반의 신 기후변화 시나리오를 이용하였으며, 물발자국 산정 작물은 우리나라의 주곡인 논벼를 대상으로 하였다. 물발자국은 작물의 단위생산량당 소비되는 물의 양으로 정의되며, 최근 연구에서 물발자국은 용수 공급원에 따라 녹색(green), 청색(blue), 회색(grey) 물발자국으로 구분하여 산정되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 작물의 증발산으로 소비되는 수량만을 물발자국 산정에 적용하여 증발산량 중 강우에 의해 공급되는 수량인 녹색 물발자국과 관개에 의해 인위적으로 공급되는 수량인 청색물발자국을 산정하였다. 기후변화에 따른 미래의 작물의 생산량을 산정하기 위해 작물모델로 기상, 재배관리, 작물의 유전정보, 토양수분 및 질소의 효과까지 고려하여 작물의 생육뿐만 아니라 생산량까지도 모의할 수 있는 CERES-Rice모델을 적용하였다. 미래 기후 전망을 위한 전지구모형은 종류가 다양하고 모형의 특성과 모형 입력 자료에 따라 모의 결과가 상이하게 나타남에 따라 불확실성을 내포하고 있다. 따라서 기후변화에 능동적으로 대처할 수 있는 논벼의 물발자국을 산정하기 위하여 각 시나리오 및 시기별 물발자국의 불확실성 및 민감도를 분석하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 기후변화에 따른 미래 농업수자원의 변화를 분석하는데 이용될 수 있을 뿐 만아니라 우리나라 미래 국가수자원 정책의 수립을 위한 기초자료로 활용될 것으로 기대된다.
