본 논문에서는 한 장의 실제 나무 영상이 주어졌을 시, 사실적인 3차원 나무 모델링(modeling) 및 자가생장(self-growth) 표현을 위한 방법을 소개하도록 한다. 스켈레톤기반의 간략화(skeleton-based abstraction)를 이용하여 동일한 나무 몸통(trunk)을 갖는 다양한 나무 모델생성과 함께 나무의 다면체구조(manifold structure)를 고려한 지오데식 커널(geodesic kernel)을 이용하여 나무의 자가생장을 표현한다. 나무의 자가생장은 사전 정의된 나무 굵기, 전체 크기, 그리고 가지증식 순서정보와 같은 상대적 성장정보(allometric information)를 동시 이용하여 상대적인 나무 생장(allometric tree growth)을 표현하도록한다. 한편, 보여지지않는 나무 가지와 잎들에 대해선, 나무구조는 로컬하게 자기유사성(local self-similarity)을 갖는다라는 고전적인 절차적(conventional procedural) 가정을 이용하여 자동적으로 생성토록한다. 실제영상을 이용한 몇몇들의 실험을 통해 보다 효과적으로 나무 모델 및 생장 표현이 가능함을 보여주도록한다.

Long-term global energy-demand growth is expected to increase driven by strong energy-demand growth from developing countries. Fusion power offers the prospect of an almost inexhaustible source of energy for future generations, even though it also presents so far insurmountable scientific and engineering challenges. One of the challenges is safe handling of hydrogen isotopes. Metal hydrides such as depleted uranium hydride or ZrCo hydride are used as a storage medium for hydrogen isotopes reversibly. The metal hydrides bind with hydrogen very strongly. In this paper, we carried out a modeling and simulation work for absorption/desorption of hydrogen by ZrCo in a horizontal annulus cylinder bed. A comprehensive mathematical description of a metal hydride hydrogen storage vessel was developed. This model was calibrated against experimental data obtained from our experimental system containing ZrCo metal hydride. The model was capable of predicting the performance of the bed for not only both the storage and delivery processes but also heat transfer operations. This model should thus be very useful for the design and development of the next generation of metal hydride hydrogen isotope storage systems.

This study proposes an efficient method to model various and diverse leaves required to express digital plants such as flowers and trees in virtual landscape easily and intuitively. The proposed procedural method divides a leaf mainly into a blade and vein thereby detecting contours from binary images that correspond to blades and generating leaves by modeling leaf veins procedurally based on the detected contours. First of all, a complicated leaf vein structure is divided into main veins, lateral veins, and tertiary vein while all veins grow procedurally directing from start auxin to destination auxin. Here, to calculate destination auxin required for growth automatically, approximated contours from binary images that correspond to blades are found thereby calculating candidate destination auxin. Finally, natural digital leaves are generated by applying a color combination method. Through the proposed method, natural and various leaves can be generated and whether the proposed method is efficient or not is verified through the experiment.

High cell density culture of Bacillus thuringiensis was conducted in fed-batch culture and TCRC using a bioreactor incorporating ceramic membrane filter. Cell growth of B. thuringiensis in fed-batch culture increased linearly, which was well matched by the results of cell growth modeling. In spite of the slower growth rate during fed-batch culture, no spore formation was observed, which was contrary to the results of continuous culture. Changing culture mode to batch culture after fed-batch operation induced a 2.7$\times$$10^9$ CFU/mL spore concentration using a 300 g/L glucose feed concentration. In TCRC operation incorporating ceramic filter within the bioreactor, the effect of glucose feed concentrations on the cell growth and spore formation of B. thuringiensis was determined. A maximum cell concentration of 1.8$\times$$10^{10}$ CFU/ml, which corresponds to 82.6 g-cell/L, was obtained in the TCRC using a 50 g/L glucose feed concentration. In the TCRC, cell growth increased linearly and glucose concentration was limited, which agreed well with the results of cell growth modeling. No spore formation was observed except when 1 g/L of glucose was fed. Changing to batch culture induced a 1.2$\times$$10^{10}$ CFU/mL of spore concentration, which was the highest spore concentration obtained among the various culture modes examined. The optimal glucose feed rate was found to be 0.55 g-glucose/h.

This study developed predictive growth models of Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhimurium on lettuce washed with chlorine (100~300 ppm) and ultrasound (US, 37 kHz, 380 W) treatment and stored at different temperatures ($10{\sim}25^{\circ}C$) using a polynomial equation. The primary model of specific growth rate (SGR) and lag time (LT) showed a good fit ($R^2{\geq}0.92$) with a Gompertz equation. A secondary model was obtained using a quadratic polynomial equation. The appropriateness of the secondary SGR and LT model was verified by coefficient of determination ($R^2=0.98{\sim}0.99$ for internal validation, 0.97~0.98 for external validation), mean square error (MSE=-0.0071~0.0057 for internal validation, -0.0118~0.0176 for external validation), bias factor ($B_f=0.9918{\sim}1.0066$ for internal validation, 0.9865~1.0205 for external validation), and accuracy factor ($A_f=0.9935{\sim}1.0082$ for internal validation, 0.9799~1.0137 for external validation). The newly developed models for S. Typhimurium could be incorporated into a tertiary modeling program to predict the growth of S. Typhimurium as a function of combined chlorine and US during the storage. These new models may also be useful to predict potential S. Typhimurium growth on lettuce, which is important for food safety purposes during the overall supply chain of lettuce from farm to table. Finally, the models may offer reliable and useful information of growth kinetics for the quantification microbial risk assessment of S. Typhimurium on washed lettuce.

Shape optimization was performed to obtain the precise shape of cutouts including the internal shape of cutouts in laminated composite plates by three dimensional modeling using solid element. The volume control of the growth-strain method was implemented and the distributed parameter chosen as Tsai-Hill fracture index for shape optimization. The volume control of the growth-strain method makes Tsai-Hill failure index at each element uniform in laminated composites under the initial volume. Then shapes optimized by Tsai-Hill failure index were compared with those of the initial shapes for the various load conditions and cutouts. The following conclusions were obtained in this study (1) It was found that growth-strain method was applied efficiently to shape optimization of three dimensional cutouts in a laminated composite plate, (2) The optimal shapes on the various load conditions and cutouts were obtained, (3) The maximum Tsai-Hill failure index was reduced up to 67% when shape optimization was performed under the initial volume by volume control of growth-strain method.

The growth of GaN on the patterned substances has proven favorable to achieve thick, crack-free GaN layers. In this paper, numerical modeling of transport and reaction of species is performed to estimate the growth rate of GaN from tile reaction of TMG(trimethly-gallium) and ammonia. GaN growth rate was estimated through the model analysis including the effect of species velocity, thermal convection and chemical reaction, and thermal condition for the uniform deposition was to be presented. The effect of shape and construction of microscopic pattern was also investigated using a simulator to perform surface analysis, and a review was done on the quantitative thickness and shape in making GaN layer on the pattern. Quantitative analysis was especially performed about the shape of reactor geometry, periodicity of pattern and flow conditions which decisively affect the quality of crystal growth. It was found that the conformal deposition could be obtained with the inclination of trench ${\Theta}>125^{\circ}$. The aspect ratio was sensitive to the void formation inside trench and the void located deep in trench with increased aspect ratio.

As a way to account for the variability of the primary model parameters in the secondary modeling of microbial growth, three different regression approaches were compared in determining the confidence interval of the temperature-dependent primary model parameters and the estimated microbial growth during storage: bootstrapped regression with all the individual primary model parameter values; bootstrapped regression with average values at each temperature; and simple regression with regression lines of 2.5% and 97.5% percentile values. Temperature dependences of converted parameters (log $q_o$, ${\mu}_{max}^{1/2}$, log $N_{max}$) of hypothetical initial physiological state, maximum specific growth rate, and maximum cell density in Baranyi's model were subjected to the regression by quadratic, linear, and linear function, respectively. With an advantage of extracting the primary model parameters instantaneously at any temperature by using mathematical functions, regression lines of 2.5% and 97.5% percentile values were capable of accounting for variation in experimental data of microbial growth under constant and fluctuating temperature conditions.

An extensive investigation was carried out to describe the kinetics of cell growth, substrate consumption, and product formation in the batch fermentation using starch as substrate. Evaluation of intrinsic kinetic parameters was carried out using a best-fit unstructured model. A nonlinear regression technique was applied for computational purpose. The Andrew's model showed a comparatively better $R^2$ value among all tested models. The values of specific growth rate (${\mu}_{max}$), saturation constant ($K_S$), inhibition constant ($K_I$), and $Y_{X/S}$ were found to be 0.109 $h^{-1}$, 11.1 g/l, 0.012 g/l, and 1.003, respectively. The Leudeking-Piret model was used to study the product formation kinetics and the process was found to be growth-associated. The growth-associated constant (${\alpha}$) for protease production was sensitive to substrate concentration. Its value was fairly constant up to a substrate concentration of 30.8 g/l, and then decreased.
