Boltzmann 방정식의 비선형 해법으로서 cumulant 모멘트 방법을 연구하였으며, Maxwell 분자모형 단원자분자 기체계의 정상충격파 문제에 대하여 적용하였다. 모멘트 방정식의 해는 Maxwell-Ikenberry-Truesdell(MIT) 반복법을 사용하였다. 원래의 MIT 반복법은 초기값을 평형분포함수로부터 구하지만, 본 연구에서는 반복계산의 초기값을 Mott-Smith의 두방식(bimodal)함수로부터 구하였다. 모멘트 계산은 2차 반복단계까지 수행하였으며, 강한 충격파에 대한 밀도, 온도, stress, heat flux 등의 윤곽과 충격파의 두께, 그리고 마하수 1.4 미만의 약한 충격파의 두께를 계산하였다. 1차 반복계산에서 충격파 윤곽에 대한 간단한 형태의 해석적 표현을 얻었으며, 이로부터 도출한 약한 충격파 두께에 대한 극한법칙은 Navier-Stokes 이론과 정확히 일치한다. 2차 반복계산에 의한 결과는 강한 충격파의 윤곽곡선 및 충격파 두께가 Monte Carlo 문헌값과 정량적으로 일치함을 보인다.

하나의 PWR 핵연료 집합체를 수송할 수 있는 사용후 핵연료 수송용기에 대한 열해석을 수행하였다. 정상 및 화재사고 조건하에서 수송용기에 대한 온도분포는 10CFR Part 71에서 제시한 조건에 맞도록 계산하였다. 붕괴열은 연소도가 45,000 MWD/MTU이고 사용후 핵연료 저장실에서 300일 냉각기간을 가질 KNU 5&6 핵연료 집합체를 고려하였다. 계산결과 화재사고시 dry cavity조건하에서 핵연료 피복관의 최대온도가 455$^{\circ}C$로 계산되었으며, 이 간은 10CFR Part 50.46에 규정된 최대 피복관 제한치 보다 훨씬 낮게 나타났다. 이것은 수송용기의 운반중에 화재사고 조건하에서도 핵연료 피복관의 파손이 일어나지 않는 것으로 설명된다. 그리고 중요 차폐체인 납의 용융도 일어나지 않았다.

When the fault occurs in power system, the fault-current exceeds breaking capacity of the circuit breaker. So, reliablity of the power system is decreased sharply. Superconducting fault-current limiter (SFCL) is operated without impedance in normal state. The fault-current is limited by its impedance during the fault condition. However, the SFCL has several weak points such as huge size, high-price, liquid-nitrogen operation for the real power system. In this paper, We suggested the high-speed interrupter to limit the fault-current in case of the single line-to-ground fault. In addition, we compared the high-speed interrupter with the SFCL to ensure the operation reliability. The proposed interrupter detected the fault-current through the CT, and the power was supplied by operation of the SCR control system. In this experiment, the power of high-speed interrupter was applied after the 4.8[msec] from fault instant. The on-off operation of the interrupter was started after half-cycle from the fault. The fault-current was flowed into the impedance element by the switching operation of the high-speed interrupter. So, the fault current was limited within one cycle, and then it didnt exceed the capacity of a circuit breaker. We confirmed that there was slight difference between the SFCL with high-speed interrupter in terms of limiting-time of the fault-current and switching speed of the SCR. The high-speed interrupter was considered to be more efficient than the SFCL in size, cost or reliability.

In this paper, we investigated the quench characteristics of high-Tc superconducting(HTSC) elements in the integrated three-phase flux-lock type superconducting fault current limiter(SFCL) according to fault types such as the single-line-to-ground fault, the double-line-to-ground fault, the line-to-line fault and the triple-line-to-ground fault. The integrated three-phase flux-lock type SFCL is an upgrade version of single-phase flux-lock type SFCL. The structure of the integrated three-phase flux-lock type SFCL consisted of a three-phase flux-lock reactor wound on an iron core with the ratio of the same turn between coil 1 and coil 2 in each phase. When the SFCL is under the normal condition, the flux generated in the iron core is zero because the flux generated between two coils of each single phase is canceled out. Therefore, the SFCL's impedance is zero, and the SFCL has negligible influence on the power system. However, if a fault occurs in any single one of three phases, the flux generated in the iron core is not zero any more. The flux makes HTSC elements of all phases to quench irrespective of the fault type, which reduces the current in fault phase as well as the current of sound phase. It was obtained that the fault current limiting characteristics of the suggested SFCL were dependent on the quench characteristics of HTSC elements in all three phases.

As an preliminary study for the quench protection of high temperature superconducting (HTS) cable using superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL), experimental research was carried out. The test circuit was composed of Bi-2223/Ag HTS tape and a SFCL made of YBCO thin films. In the normal state, the applied current of 56 A, which was critical current of HTS tape, could be flown through the circuit without resistive loss. Increasing the currents, the quench development of both materials was investigated from the voltage signal acquired from the resistance of the quenched superconductor. Up to around 10 times of the critical current was applied to the HTS tape and the current limiting characteristics of SFCL were investigated. In addition, for the finding out the optimal operating condition of SFCL such as the numbers of elements, a shunt resistor was applied to the SFCL and quench characteristics were analyzed as well.

주증기관은 보일러와 터빈을 연결하는 주요계통이다. 운전조건으로 인한 배관시스템에 손상을 제한 할 수 있기 때문에 수격현상 해석은 중요하다. 배관시스템의 불안정한 유동에 의해 생성되는 수격현상은 압력의 과도한 변화, 진동 및 소음을 일으킬 수 있다. 주증기관 구조는 운전환경아래 압력맥동 및 여러 진동 등을 안전하게 견딜 수 있도록 설계되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 정지 및 정상 운전기간 동안 배관에 유입되는 수격현상을 과도조건에 적용하여 ASME 피로수명 방법론과 유한요소해석에 따라 주증기관의 구조건전성을 평가하였다. 계산된 교번응력 및 피로응력 평가 결과, ASME 피로수명의 허용요건을 만족하였다.

This study was performed to investigate the dose-response relationship between average daily cadmium dose (ADCD) from rice and the occurrence of urinary cadmium (U-Cd) in individuals eating that rice. This was a retrospective cohort designed to compare populations from two areas with different levels of cadmium contamination. Five-hundred and sixty-seven participants aged 18 years or older were interviewed to estimate their rice intake, and were assessed for U-Cd. The sources of consumed rice were sampled for cadmium measurement, from which the ADCD was estimated. Binary logistic regression was used to examine the association between ADCD and U-Cd (cut-off point at $2{\mu}g/g$ creatinine), and a correlation between them was established. The lowest estimate was $ADCD=0.5{\mu}g/kg\;bw/day$ [odds ratio (OR) = 1.71; with a 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.02-2.87]. For comparison, the relationship in the contaminated area is expressed by $ADCD=0.7{\mu}g/kg\;bw/day$, OR = 1.84; [95 % CI, 1.06-3.19], while no relationship was found in the non-contaminated area, meaning that the highest level at which this relationship does not exist is $ADCD=0.6{\mu}g/kg\;bw/day$ [95% CI, 0.99-2.95]. Rice, as a main staple food, is the most likely source of dietary cadmium. Abstaining from or limiting rice consumption, therefore, will increase the likelihood of maintaining U-Cd within the normal range. As the recommended maximum ADCD is not to exceed $0.6{\mu}g/kg\;bw/day$, the consumption of rice grown in cadmium-contaminated areas should not be more than 246.8 g/day. However, the exclusion of many edible plants grown in the contaminated area from the analysis might result in an estimated ADCD that does not reflect the true level of cadmium exposure among local people.

Cisplatin is one of the most potent chemotherapy agents. However, its use is limited due to its toxicity in normal tissues, including the kidney and ear. In particular, nephrotoxicity induced by cisplatin is closely associated with oxidative stress and inflammation. Heme oxygenase-1(HO-1), the rate-limiting enzyme in the heme metabolism, has been implicated in a various cellular processes, such as inflammatory injury and anti-oxidant/oxidant homeostasis. Capsaicin is reported to have therapeutic potential in cisplatin-induced renal failures. However, the mechanisms underlying its protective effects on cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity remain largely unknown. Herein, we demonstrated that administration of capsaicin ameliorates cisplatin-induced renal dysfunction by assessing the levels of serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) as well as tissue histology. In addition, capsaicin treatment attenuates the expression of inflammatory mediators and oxidative stress markers for renal damage. We also found that capsaicin induces HO-1 expression in kidney tissues and HK-2 cells. Notably, the protective effects of capsaicin were completely abrogated by treatment with either the HO inhibitor ZnPP IX or HO-1 knockdown in HK-2 cells. These results suggest that capsaicin has protective effects against cisplatin-induced renal dysfunction through induction of HO-1 as well as inhibition oxidative stress and inflammation.

This study investigates the influence of particulate matter concentrations on the incidence of asthma, focusing on the delayed onset of symptoms and subsequent medical consultations. Analysis incorporates a four-day lag from the initiation of fine dust exposure and compares asthma patterns before and after the World Health Organization's (WHO) classification of fine dust as a Group 1 carcinogen in November 2013. Utilizing daily PM10 data and asthma-related medical visit counts in Seoul from 2008 to 2016, the study additionally incorporates Google search frequencies and newspaper article counts on fine dust to assess public awareness. Results reveal a surge in search frequencies and article publications after WHO announcement, indicating heightened public interest. To standardize the long-term asthma occurrence trend, the daily asthma patient numbers are ratio-adjusted based on annual averages. The analysis uncovers an increase in asthma medical visits 2 to 3 days after fine dust events. Additionally, greater public awareness of fine dust hazards correlates with a significant reduction in asthma occurrence after such events, even within 'normal' fine dust concentrations. Notably, behavioral changes, like limiting outdoor activities, contribute to this decrease. This study highlights the importance of analyzing accumulated medical data over an extended period to identify general public behavioral patterns, deviating from conventional survey methods in social sciences. Future research aims to extend data collection beyond 2016, exploring recent trends and considering the potential impact of decreased fine dust awareness amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

어류의 피부는 각종 환경성 저해인자에 대한 최외측 방어장벽으로써, 어체내의 생리적인 기능을 유지하는 데 중요한 역할을 담당하기 때문에, 피부의 상태는 각종 질병에서 매우 중요하다 하겠다. 어류는 형태학적으로나 생리학적으로 수중의 환경에 적응되어 있기 때문에, 육상 포유동물과는 또다른 다수의 어류 특이의 조직학적 소견을 갖고 있다. 그러므로, 피부에서 일어나는 병리조직학적인 소견에 대한 보다 정확한 해석을 가하기 위하여는 이러한 조직학적 특성을 잘 이해해 둘 필요성이 있다. 정상 환경하의 어류피부는 육상 고등동물에 비하여 한계적 장벽으로써 그 생리학적 요구에 보다 미묘히 적응되어 있다. 그러나, 이러한 피부의 적응상은 오히려 인공적인 사육시설이나, 수질의 오염등에 의하여 더욱 피부의 항상성은 쉽게 파괴될 수 있다. 피부색조의 변화, 궤양등과 같은 소견은 임상적으로 빈번히 접하게 되지만, 이와 같은 가시적 병변이 유도되기 까지는 다양한 생리학적 또는 병리학적 반응이, 피부의 각층에서 일어날 수 있다. 지금까지, 경골어류의 피부에 대한 조직학적 정보를 기술한 참고서는 그 수에 있어 빈약할 뿐 아니라, 정보의 체력적 정리가 부족하다. 게다가, 병리조직학적 기술도 체계적인 실험적 연구에 의하기 보다는 임상 병리학적인 소견에 근거 기술하고 있는 것이 대부분이다. 그러므로, 여기에서는, 새로운 조직학적 정보를 기술하기 보다는, 지금까지 정설화된 피부에 대한 조직학적 및 병리조직학적 소견의 일반을 모아 정리하고자 하였다.
