Inflammatory pseudotumor was originally described in the lung, but recently has been recognized to occur in various sites. A 56-year-old female was referred to our department with a painless swelling of the right midfacial area since 3 months ago. Clinical examination showed non-specific intraoral findings, but asymmetric facial appearance and numbness of the right midfacial area. Plain radiographs and CT images showed aggressive destruction and irregular thickening of the right maxillary sinus wall, increased antral opacification, and destruction of the zygomatic arch. A relatively well-defined soft tissue mass occupied the right maxillary sinus, nasal cavity, zygoma, and infraorbital region. The soft tissue mass showed mild enhancement on CT. Radiographically, this lesion presented a rapidly enlarging mass demonstrating aggressive behavior, mimicking a malignant tumor. Histopathologic examinations showed plasma cells and inflammatory cells in variable fibrotic tissues and demonstrated positive reactivity for vimentin. No malignent changes could be found.

Shored Mechanically Stabilized Earth (SMSE) walls are types of soil retaining structures that increase soil stability under static and dynamic loads. The damage caused by an earthquake can be determined by evaluating the probabilistic seismic response of SMSE walls. This study aimed to assess the seismic performance of SMSE walls and provide fragility curves for evaluating failure levels. The generated fragility curves can help to improve the seismic performance of these walls through assessing and controlling variables like backfill surface settlement, lateral deformation of facing, and permanent relocation of the wall. A parametric study was performed based on a non-linear elastoplastic constitutive model known as the hardening soil model with small-strain stiffness, HSsmall. The analyses were conducted using PLAXIS 2D, a Finite Element Method (FEM) program, under plane-strain conditions to study the effect of the number of geogrid layers and the axial stiffness of geogrids on the performance of SMSE walls. In this study, three areas of damage (minor, moderate, and severe) were observed and, in all cases, the wall has not completely entered the stage of destruction. For the base model (Model A), at the highest ground acceleration coefficient (1 g), in the moderate damage state, the fragility probability was 76%. These values were 62%, and 54%, respectively, by increasing the number of geogrids (Model B) and increasing the geogrid stiffness (Model C). Meanwhile, the fragility values were 99%, 98%, and 97%, respectively in the case of minor damage. Notably, the probability of complete destruction was zero percent in all models.

본 연구의 목적은 공기 단축과 초기 공사비를 절감하기 위해 PC 긴장재를 사용하지 않고, 슬리브와 일반 철근만으로 구성된 경제적이면서 시공성이 우수한 프리캐스트 교각 공법 개발에 있다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 신형식 철근이음 장치인 그라우팅형(形) 슬리브(Splice sleeve, 이하 슬리브)를 제안하고 최적의 슬리브를 개발하기 위하여 슬리브 길이, 철근직경, 양생방법 등을 변수로 하여 유한요소해석 및 인장실험을 수행하였다. 슬리브의 유한요소해석을 통하여 최적의 형상을 도출하였으며, 인장 성능 검토 결과, 철근의 인발에 의한 파괴는 발생하지 않았으며, 철근의 인장 파괴 혹은 슬리브의 기계적 결함에 의한 볼트 파단만이 관찰되었다. 제안된 슬리브는 우수한 인장성능을 갖고 있음을 확인하였으며 프리캐스트 교각에 무리 없이 적용할 수 있음을 검증하였다.

In this study, applicability of GHG ETS Offset Program in Korea for a refrigerant sector was analyzed by reviewing foreign management policy and project status in progress related to refrigerants in the disposal stage. In order to derive the implication of the domestic Offset Program, it was looked into approved offset projects and certified offset credits current state in Korea. Offset Program has approved 22 methodologies up to the present, so it is necessary to enhance the accessibility to GHG reduction in various industrial sector including the refrigerant sector by developing appropriate methodologies. In this study firstly, it was investigated that management regulation of countries are managing the refrigerants in the disposal stage such as United States, Japan, Australia. Secondly, of CDM methodologies there were two methodologies associated with the refrigerant reduction(treatment), which were decomposition HFC-23 and destruction of HFC-134a. Also there were a non-registered methodology about destruction of HFC-134a of end of life vehicles. Lastly, in California according to Compliance Offset Program, there was Compliance Offset Protocol in ODS Projects that provided eligible conditions. Based on the review, it was examined the possible conditions for domestic offset project for refrigerant sector

The permeation of $Ca^{2+}$ ions through the materials such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and non-halogenated flame retardant cross linked polyolefin (FR-XLPO) used for CN-CV underground distribution power cable jackets was investigated. The permeation of $Ca^{2+}$ ions was found to increase with the increase of time. The FR-XLPO showed higher permeation of $Ca^{2+}$ ions, by a factor of about two, than the PVC. This was explained by the destruction of structural integrity caused by mixing a large amount of mineral flame retardant such as $Mg(OH)_2$ used to impart non-flame ability to the jacket material.

The ultimate purpose of this study is as follows: The current primary concern in the defense sector revolves around how to strategically utilize Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies in combat. The Fourth Industrial Revolution denotes a shift towards an environment where automation and connectivity are maximized, driven by technologies such as artificial intelligence. Coined by Klaus Schwab in the 2015 Davos Forum, this term highlights the significant role of machine learning and artificial intelligence. Particularly, the military application of Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies is expected to be actively researched and implemented. Combat involves military actions between units, typically conducted as part of a larger war, with units striving to achieve one or more objectives. The concept of combat refers to the fundamental ideas of how units should engage with the enemy, both presently and in future scenarios, to achieve assigned objectives.

본 논문에서는 CCD 카메라의 영상 즉 비전만을 사용해서 도로사면 붕괴와 같은 도로 사태를 검출하는 효과적인 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 제안한 알고리즘은 영상을 비감시영역과 감시영역으로, 감시 영역은 비도로, 경계, 도로 영역으로 구분한다. 그런 후에 움직임 블록을 정의하고, 생존시간 테이블을 사용해서 움직임의 히스토리를 기억하며, 움직임의 구성요소들이 비도로 영역에서 도로 영역까지 함께 존재하는지를 확인하여 도로 붕괴 사태를 결정하였다. 실험을 통해 제안한 알고리즘이 효과적으로 도로 사태를 검출하는 것을 확인하였다.

The study of behavior and values of deformations in the geological medium makes the scientific basis of the methodology of synthesis of true values of parameters of its physico-mechanical and density properties taking into account the influence of geodynamic impacts. The segments of continuous variation of homogeneous elastic uniform deformations are determined under overall compression of the medium. The limits of these segments are defined according to the criteria of instability (on geometric form changes and on "internal" instability). Analytical formulae are obtained to calculate current and limiting (critical) values of deformations within the framework of various variants of small and large initial deformations of the non-classically linearized approach of non-linear elastodynamics. The distribution of deformation becomes non-uniform in the medium while the limiting values of deformations are achieved. The proposed analytical formulae are applicable only within homogeneous distribution of deformations. Numerical experiments are carried out for various elastic potentials. It is found that various forms of instability can precede phase transitions and destruction. The influence of these deformation phenomena should be removed while the physico-mechanical and density parameters of the deformed media are determined. In particular, it is necessary to use the formulae proposed in this paper for this purpose.

Volatile organic compounds emitted to the atmosphere can cause adverse effects on human health and participate in photochemical smog formation reactions. The destruction of a series of VOCs has been carried out by non-thermal plasma in other researches. And the characteristic of non-thermal plasma was operated at atmospheric pressure and low temperature. A new type non-thermal plasma reactor was investigated combined Glidarc plasma with water jet in this research. Also, it was found that the water-jet had an significant effect on the toluene removal efficiency. But too much water content does not favor toluene decomposition by decreasing of reaction temperature. The input toluene concentration, gas flow rate, water flow rate and specific energy input were used as experiment variables. The toluene removal efficiency, energy efficiency and specific energy input were 75.3%, 146.6 g/kWh and $1.12kWh/m^3$ at a water flow rate of 100 mL/min.
