The dragon of the East was an object of worship and an authority to make rain, unlike the West. The dragon image, one of the positively accepted Chinese motifs with the blue-and-white porcelain of the Ming dynasty by the Ottoman Empire in the 16th century, was combined with gigantic saw-edged leaves to create a genre in Saz style. By combining Eastern dragons with plant motifs instead of clouds, dragons were no longer accepted as authority and nobility but as symbols of life and longevity. Unlike Iran and other countries, the image of dragons in Turkish miniature paintings has evolved into a unique style using Turkish calligraphy. The stylistic feature is that a thick black line that gives the impression of calligraphy forms the dragon's back or a huge saz leaf stalk and forms the axis of the screen. Most of the work was black ink drawing, not painting, and partly lightly painted. In the development stage, the dragon appears as a protagonist on the screen of the early works, but the dragon retreats to the latter half and the saz leaves play a leading role on the screen. A common feature in all paintings, whether early or late, is that they have a militant character and create tension on the screen. From the viewpoint of comparative culture, Turkish dragon miniature drawings of the 16thcentury Ottoman period and the Joseon dynasty are somewhat similar in that they are based on calligraphic character and desire for longevity and loyalty, and are drawn according to certain iconic principles.

The Platform Screen Door system(PSD) is scheduled to be installed on the platform of some subway stations in Seoul, Pusan, Kwang-Ju, Daejun and Daegu and all stations of Seoul Subway No 9. will equipped with PSD. On the other hand Seoul Metropolitan Rapid Speed(SMRT) that has operated the train automatically had finished the basic desic design and the execution drawing of PSD and installed successfully the PSD on the platforms in the Kimpo Airport station in Subway Line No 5. at dec. 2005. The exhibition operations of PSD has made the major contribution to build up the safe and optimum subway for the increasing customers. Nowadays PSD has operated on ATO sections and ATS sections. But in the case of closing the door manually in ATO sections, it would be delayed about 5 seconds in closing the door of PSD. Although the interface of PSD, train and the signal system is established automatically, we have to supplement technically on the interface between train, PSD and the ground signal interface equipments. Therefore I will center on the optimizing methods about the interfacing system between the train and the PSD, train and the signal system to overcome the above problems in this study.

Objective : This study is planned to determine the neurocognitive difficulties of hydrocephalic adults. Methods : The research group contained healthy adults (control group, n : 15), and hydrocephalic adults (n : 15). Hydrocephalic group consisted of patients with idiopathic aquaduct stenosis and post-meningitis hydrocephalus. All patients were followed with shunted hydrocephalus and not gone to shunt revision during last two years. They were chosen from either asymptomatic or had only minor symptoms without motor and sensorineural deficit. A neuropsychological test battery (Raven Standart Progressive Matrices, Bender-Gestalt Test, Cancellation Test, Clock Drawing Test, Facial Recognition Test, Line Orientation Test, Serial Digit Learning Test, Stroop Color Word Interference Test-TBAG Form, Verbal Fluency Test, Verbal Fluency Test, Visual-Aural Digit Span Test-B) was applied to all groups. Results : Neuropsychological assessment of hydrocephalic patients demonstrated that they had poor performance on visual, semantic and working memory, visuoconstructive and frontal functions, reading, attention, motor coordination and executive function of parietal lobe which related with complex and perseverative behaviour. Eventually, these patients had significant impairment on the neurocognitive functions of their frontal, parietal and temporal lobes. On the other hand, the statistical analyses performed on demographic data showed that the aetiology of the hydrocephalus, age, sex and localization of the shunt (frontal or posterior parietal) did not affect the test results. Conclusion : This prospective study showed that adult patients with hydrocephalus have serious neuropsychological problems which might be directly caused by the hydrocephalus; and these problems may cause serious adaptive difficulties in their social, cultural, behavioral and academic life.

As the fourth industrial revolution, in which people, objects, and information are connected as one, various fields such as smart energy, smart cities, artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, unmanned cars, and robot industries are becoming the mainstream, drawing attention to big data. Among them, Smart Grid is a technology that maximizes energy efficiency by converging information and communication technologies into the power grid to establish a smart grid that can know electricity usage, supply volume, and power line conditions. Smart meters are equient that monitors and communicates power usage. We start with the goal of building a virtual smart grid and constructing a virtual environment in which real-time data is generated to accommodate large volumes of data that are small in capacity but regularly generated. A major role is given in creating a software/hardware architecture deployment environment suitable for the system for test operations. It is necessary to identify the advantages and disadvantages of the software according to the characteristics of the collected data and select sub-projects suitable for the purpose. The collected data was collected/loaded/processed/analyzed by the Hadoop ecosystem-based big data platform, and used to predict power demand through deep learning.

Over 30 million prescriptions of NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) are issued every year. Considering that these drugs are available without a prescription as over the counter (OTC) drugs, their use will be astronomical. With the increasing use of NSAIDs, their adverse effects are drawing attention. Especially, stomach bleeding, kidney toxicity, liver toxicity, and neurological toxicity are reported as common. Ibuprofen, one of the extensively used NSAIDs along with aspirin, can also induce liver toxicity, but few studies are addressing this point. Here we examined the liver toxicity of ibuprofen and investigated whether co-exposure to ethanol can manifest synergistic effects. We employed 2D and 3D cultured human hepatoma cells, HepG2 to examine the synergistic hepatotoxicity of ibuprofen and alcohol concerning cell viability, morphology, and histology of 3D spheroids. As a result, ibuprofen and alcohol provoked synergistic hepatotoxicity against hepatocytes, and their toxicity increased prominently in 3D culture upon extended exposure. Oxidative stress appeared to be the mechanisms underlying the synergistic toxicity of ibuprofen and alcohol as evidenced by increased production of ROS and expression of the endogenous antioxidant system. Collectively, this study has demonstrated that ibuprofen and EtOH can induce synergistic hepatotoxicity, providing a line of evidence for caution against the use of ibuprofen in combination with alcohol.

Peltier cells have low efficiency, but they are becoming attractive alternatives for affordable and environmentally clean cooling. In this line, the current article develops closed-form and semianalytical solutions to improve the temperature distribution of Bi₂Te₃ thermoelements. From the distribution, the main objective of the current work-the optimal electric intensity to maximize cooling-is inferred. The general one-dimensional differential coupled equation is integrated for linear and quadratic geometry of thermoelements, under temperature constant properties. For a general shape, a piece-wise solution based on heat flux continuity among virtual layers gives accurate analytical solutions. For variable properties, another piece-wise solution is developed but solved iteratively. Taking advantage of the formulae, the optimal intensity is directly derived with a minimal computational cost; its value will be of utility for more advanced designs. Finally, a parametric study including straight, two linear, barrel, hourglass and vase geometries is presented, drawing conclusions on how the shape of the thermoelement affects the coupled phenomena. A specially developed coupled and non-linear finite element research code is run taking into account all the materials of the cell and using symmetries and repetitions. These accurate results are used to validate the analytical ones.

Amblovenatum immersum (Blume) Mazumdar (Thelypteridaceae) is newly recorded in Vietnam. It is similar to A. terminans (Panigrahi) J. P. Roux in its woody rhizome and cristate spores but differs in terms of its plant size, lobed pinnae, lobed segments, veinlets, sori and indusia. It was previously found to exist in China, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, Philippines, Sri Lanka, and Thailand as well as in east Africa, tropical America, northern Australia and Micronesia. The present study provides a detailed description, photos, and line drawing of the species. Furthermore, a comparison of the diagnostic characters with the closely related species in Vietnam A. terminans is provided.

본고는 "동궐도(東闕圖)"의 작도원리를 기반으로 러버쉬팅변환(Rubber Sheeting Transformation)을 통해 조선후기 창덕궁 금천교 주변의 평면도 제작을 시도하였으며, 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, "동궐도(東闕圖)" 제작 당시부터 현존하는 주요 전각의 실제 크기와 그림에 묘사된 크기를 비교하여 전각의 정입면이 약 1/200으로 축소되어 작성되었음을 밝혀냈다. 그러나 측입면에서는 동일한 제작 비율이 확인되지 않았다. 다만, 측입면의 길이가 실제의 약 절반 정도로 그려지고, 사선 각도가 평균 $39^{\circ}$로 파악됨에 따라 캐비닛 투영(Cabinet Projection)과 유사한 방식으로 작도되었음을 확인하였다. 둘째, "동궐도(東闕圖)"의 작도 원리를 역추적하여 "사투영평면도"를 작성하고 러버쉬팅변환을 통해 "동궐도(東闕圖)"의 창덕궁금천교 주변 평면도를 제작하였다. 변환 시 투영변환(projective transformation)이 가장 적합한 것으로 확인되었고, 표준 오차는 2.1208m로 비교적 높은 정확도를 나타냄으로써 "동궐도(東闕圖)"의 평면도 제작이 유의미하였다. 이는 "동궐도(東闕圖)"뿐만 아니라 평행사선도법으로 작성된 각종 기록화의 평면도 제작 가능성을 시사한다. 셋째, 작성된 평면도가 제공하는 공간 정보의 정확성을 검토하기 위해 금천교의 위치, 금천교와 진선문의 배치, 금천의 석축 위치를 시기에 따라 비교하였다. 그 결과 작성된 평면도의 내용이 금천교 발굴조사결과와 그 맥락을 함께 함으로써 러버쉬팅변환이 "동궐도(東闕圖)" 제작 당시 모습을 이해하는데 유용한 도구로서의 활용 가능성이 검증되었다. 본 연구는 러버쉬팅변환을 적용하여 "동궐도(東闕圖)"에 수록된 공간정보를 2차원 평면도로 제작하기 위한 가능성을 모색하고, 이를 통해 조선후기 동궐의 모습을 이해하기 위한 새로운 방법론을 제시하였다는데 의의가 있다.

최근 해양, 석유화학 플랜트 등에서는 내마모, 내식성, 내열성이 요구되는 초내열 합금이 기본적인 구조재료로 많이 사용되고 있다. 하지만 고가의 초내열 합금 소재로 밸브를 제작할 때 원가 상승과 가격 경쟁력 저하의 원인이 되고 있다. 이에 유체에 흐르는 특정부위만 육성 용접하는 기술이 효과적인 방법으로 사용되고 있다. 하지만 기존의 볼 육성용접의 경우 사람이 직접 수동으로 작업을 진행하기 때문에 많은 시간이 소요되고 정확한 용접하기 어렵다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 볼 밸브용 볼 육성용접을 균일하게 할 수 있는 로봇자동화 시스템을 개발하였다. 이 시스템은 용접토치를 장착한 용접용 로봇 6축, 포지셔너 회전을 위한 부가 2축, 제어장치 및 로봇경로는 오프라인 프로그램으로 구성되어 있다. CAD 도면 데이터를 오프라인 프로그램에 입력하여 로봇 교시점과 로봇 구동 소스를 얻을 수 있도록 하였고, 볼 육성용접 궤적은 Matlab을 통해 구현하였다. OLP 시스템을 통해 용접층 두께가 균일하게 얻으므로 용가재의 소모량을 약 20% 절약할 수 있었고, 모재와 용접봉 사이의 아크길이를 일정하게 유지하여 육성용접 불량율을 약 50% 정도 감소시켜 품질을 확보하였다. OLP를 활용한 육성용접 자동화 시스템을 통해 작업소요시간이 88시간에서 41시간으로 단축되어 생산성이 2.58배 향상 되었다.

계화기법(界畵技法)으로 그린 '전라구례오미동가도(全羅求禮五美洞家圖)'를 통해 운조루(雲鳥樓) 살림집의 공간배치계획과 경관 기법을 고찰한 연구 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, '오미동가도'는 창건주 류이주(柳爾?)가 용천부사로 재임할 때(1782년) 설계도면을 보내 집을 짓게 하였다는 점, 정형화된 풍수적 사신사 구조의 자리잡기와 기본계획도 성격이 농후한 점, 그리고 합각지붕이 1804년에 솟을대문으로 중수되었다는 점 등을 고려하면 운조루 창건시기(1776~1783년)에 제작되었을 것으로 판단된다. 둘째, 운조루는 지리산 노고단(祖山)과 형제봉을 주산(主山)으로, 오봉산(案山)과 계족산(朝山)을 안대로 자리했는데, 동쪽으로 흐르는 동방천(外明堂水)을 표현하는 등 배산임수 풍수국면을 설득력 있게 표현하고 있다. 셋째, 운조루는 직교 축선에 위계를 설정하여 품(品) 자형 건물군이 5영역으로 분화된 구조인데, 바깥뜰 외원과 뒤뜰 후원을 갖춘 5동(棟) + 6마당(庭) + 2원(園)의 토지이용체계를 가진다. 넷째, 심미성과 풍수적 화기비보(火氣裨補)를 겸한 바깥뜰(외원)의 조성은 연못(방지원도형)을 중심으로 유교와 도교적 관념 등 상징적 경물(景物)을 대입시켜 지속 가능한 생태정원을 구축하고 있다. 다섯째, 사랑마당에는 화계(花階)와 화오(花塢)를 가꾸었고, 괴석, 학과 매화나무, 소나무, 위성류, 초화류 등 조경 요소를 활용하여 선경의 이상세계를 구축함은 물론 정심수를 도입하는 등 형이상학적 상징성을 엿볼 수 있다. 특히, 사랑채 누마루에서 조망되는 원경과 중경, 그리고 앙부(仰俯) 경관 등 자연의 경(景)이 내부로 관입되거나 외부로 확장되는 차경(借景)과 관경(觀景)의 미를 발견할 수 있다. 여섯째, 북쪽 담장 밖의 소나무 총림과 조산(造山)은 주거환경의 쾌적성 제고 측면은 물론 풍수적 채움의 미학이 고려된 전통조경기법 사례라 하겠다.
