  • 최근 들어 우리나라 전해역에 걸쳐 발생하고 있는 침식은 사회적인 문제가 되어왔다. 하지만, 해안구조물에 의한 기존의 방법으로 해안선을 보호하는 것이 "파랑장에 친화적인가?"라는 관점에서 개선의 여지가 있다. 새로운 형식의 철재형 이안제는 권혁민 등(2007)에 의해 제안되었다. 본 형식은 다수의 파일과 상부에 파랑진행방향과 수평으로 설치된 소파장치로 구성되어 있다. 본 형식은 해수유통원활, 대수심 축조수월, 공기단축 등의 장점이 있다. 본 연구는 소파제로서 철재형 이안제의 상부에 거치가 가능한 이열 조합판의 투과율을 실험적으로 평가했다. 일방향 불규칙파 시스템에 의한 모형실험을 통하여 반사율, 소파율, 투과율에 관하여 분석했다. 실험결과, 파형경사가 클수록 그리고 조합판의 폭-파장비가 클수록 투과율이 작아짐을 보였다. 본 연구는 이열 소파판 조합에 대하여 투과율 산정을 위한 직선식을 제안했다.

  • 조류발전단지는 유망한 해역에 터빈을 복수로 다배열하여 발전하는 시스템을 말한다. 이러한 단지는 각 터빈이 최대 효율로 작동하고, 최대 발전량을 얻을 수 있도록 설계되어야 하는데, 이를 위해서는 터빈 사이의 간섭으로 인한 성능 저하가 발생하지 않도록 터빈은 일정 거리를 두고 배치되어야 한다. 수평축 터빈의 경우 EMEC(European Marine Energy Centre)에서 배치거리를 제안하고 있으나, 수직축 터빈은 그러한 규정이 제안된 바 없다. 여러 연구 결과들에 따르면 수직축 터빈이 인접할 경우 성능의 향상까지 도모될 수 있으므로, 그 배치는 수평축 터빈보다 더욱 중요하게 검토될 필요가 있다. 본 논문에서는 수직축 터빈에 대하여 수평축 터빈과 같이 일정 거리를 두고 배치하는 것과 터빈을 인접하도록 배치하는 것과의 차이를 조사하였다. 이를 위해 두 터빈간의 거리와 회전방향을 파라메터로 하여 그에 따른 성능 차이를 수치해석적으로 연구하였고, 그 이유를 파악하고자 하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 가장 적절한 수치해석 영역과 조건을 설정할 수 있었으며, 인접한 두 터빈이 각각 반시계-시계방향으로 회전하는 것이 단독 터빈 2기 대비 약 9.2%의 성능향상이 예측되었다. 터빈이 대각으로 배치된 경우는 최대 약 5.6%정도 성능이 향상됨을 확인하였다. 본 연구는 수직축 터빈을 이용한 조류발전단지를 설계시 유용한 정보가 될 것으로 기대된다.

  • A radiation dosimeter is important to assess quality assurance (QA) of radiation therapy devices and to estimate the radiation dose in vivo dosimetry. Recently, optically stimulated luminescence detector (OSLD) is widely used in clinical filed. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to evaluate dose, energy, and angular dependence of OSLD and EBT3 film. The absorbed dose in clinical linear accelerator (Linac) beam is calibrated for dose per monitor unit (MU). Dose, energy, and angular dependence of OSLD and EBT3 film are estimated after the calibration procedure. The absorbed dose is measured at 50, 100, 150, and 200 cGy in an 6 MV X-ray beam for dose dependence. A dose of 150 cGy is delivered to OSLD and EBT3 film with 6 and 10 MV photon energies for energy dependence. For measurements of angular dependence, angular positions of gantry are $0^{\circ}{\pm}80^{\circ}$ with 6 MV at 150 cGy. The results of dose dependence is linear for OSLD and EBT3 film. For the results of energy dependence, errors were 0.39% and 0.03% for OSLD and EBT3 film, respectively. The results of dose for angular is decreased from $0^{\circ}$ to ${\pm}80^{\circ}$ for both OSLD and EBT3 film. When angle of $0^{\circ}$ is normalized to 1, and the dose is decreased to 60 and 66% at $80^{\circ}$ for OSLD and EBT3 film, respectively. Dose and energy dependence of OSLD and EBT3 film are measured within the recommendation of manufacturer. Angular dependence is increased from $0^{\circ}$ to ${\pm}80^{\circ}$ for OSLD and EBT3 film. The characteristics of OSLD and EBT3 film are similar and expected to useful for clinical field.

  • In SPECT image, scatter count is the cause of quantitative count error and image quality degradation. This study is to evaluate the accuracy of CT based SC(CTSC) and energy window based SC(EWSC) as the comparison with existing Non SC. SPECT/CT images were obtained after filling air in order to acquire a reference image without the influence of scatter count inside the Triple line insert phantom setting hot rod(99mTc 74.0 MBq) in the middle and each SPECT/CT image was obtained each separately after filling water instead of air in order to derive the influence of scatter count under the same conditions. For EWSC, 9 sub-energy windows were set additionally in addition to main energy window(140 keV, 20%) and then, images were acquired at the same time and five types of EWSC including DPW(dual photo-peak window)10%, DEW(dual energy window)20%, TEW(triple energy window)10%, TEW5.0%, TEW2.5% were used. Under the condition without fluctuations in primary count, total count was measured by drawing volume of interest (VOI) in the images of the two conditions and then, the ratio of scatter count of total counts was calculated as percent scatter fraction(%SF) and the count error with image filled with water was evaluated with percent normalized mean-square error(%NMSE) based on the image filled with air. Based on the image filled with air, %SF of images filled with water to which each SC method was applied is non scatter correction(NSC) 37.44, DPW 27.41, DEW 21.84, TEW10% 19.60, TEW5% 17.02, TEW2.5% 14.68, CTSC 5.57 and the scatter counts were removed the most in CTSC and %NMSE is NSC 35.80, DPW 14.28, DEW 7.81, TEW10% 5.94, TEW5% 4.21, TEW2.5% 2.96, CTSC 0.35 and the error in CTSC was found to be the lowest. In SPECT/CT images, the application of each scatter correction method used in the experiment could improve the quantitative count error caused by the influence of scatter count. In particular, CTSC showed the lowest %NMSE(=0.35) compared to existing EWSC methods, enabling relatively accurate scatter correction.

  • Utilization of high energy photons (>10MV) with an optimal weight using a mixed energy technique is a practical way to generate a homogenous dose distribution while maintaining adequate target coverage in intact breast radiotherapy. This study represents a model for estimation of this optimal weight for day to day clinical usage. For this purpose, treatment planning computed tomography scans of thirty-three consecutive early stage breast cancer patients following breast conservation surgery were analyzed. After delineation of the breast clinical target volume (CTV) and placing opposed wedge paired isocenteric tangential portals, dosimeteric calculations were conducted and dose volume histograms (DVHs) were generated, first with pure 6MV photons and then these calculations were repeated ten times with incorporating 18MV photons (ten percent increase in weight per step) in each individual patient. For each calculation two indexes including maximum dose in the breast CTV ($D_{max}$) and the volume of CTV which covered with 95% Isodose line ($V_{CTV,95%IDL}$) were measured according to the DVH data and then normalized values were plotted in a graph. The optimal weight of 18MV photons was defined as the intersection point of $D_{max}$ and $V_{CTV,95%IDL}$ graphs. For creating a model to predict this optimal weight multiple linear regression analysis was used based on some of the breast and tangential field parameters. The best fitting model for prediction of 18MV photons optimal weight in breast radiotherapy using mixed energy technique, incorporated chest wall separation plus central lung distance (Adjusted R2=0.776). In conclusion, this study represents a model for the estimation of optimal beam weighting in breast radiotherapy using mixed photon energy technique for routine day to day clinical usage.

  • 에너지 절감형 서버 클러스터에서는 에너지 절감을 고려하지 않는 기존 서버 클러스터에 비해 서비스 품질을 보장하면서 전력소비를 절감하는 것을 목표로 하며, 현재의 부하를 처리하는 데 필요한 최소수의 서버들만 ON 하도록 고정 주기 또는 가변 주기로 서버들의 전원모드를 조정한다. 이에 대한 기존 연구들은 전력을 절감하거나 열을 낮추는데 노력해왔지만 에너지 효율성을 잘 고려하지 못했다. 본 논문에서는 기존 자율학습기반의 서버 전원 모드 제어 방법의 단위전력당 성능과 QoS를 높이기 위한 에너지 효율적인 클러스터 관리기법을 제안한다. 제안 방법은 다중임계기반의 자율학습 방법과 전력소모 예측 방법을 결합한 서버 전원 모드 제어이다. 일반적인 부하 상황에서는 다중임계 학습기반의 서버 전원 모드 제어를 적용하고, 급변하는 부하 상황에서는 예측기반의 서버 전원 모드 제어가 적용된다. 일반적 상황과 급변하는 상황의 구별은 현재의 사용자 요청과 관찰된 과거 몇 분의 사용자 요청의 비율에 따라 이루어진다. 또한, 동적종료 기법을 추가로 적용해 서버가 OFF 하는 데 소요되는 시간을 단축한다. 제안 방법은 16대 서버로 구성된 클러스터 환경에서 3가지 부하 패턴을 이용하여 실험을 수행한다. 다중임계 학습, 예측, 동적종료를 함께 이용한 실험에서 단위전력당 성능(유효응답 수)과 표준화된 QoS 측면에서 가장 우수한 결과를 보여준다. 제안하는 방법과 파라미터 로드된 단일임계 학습을 비교할 때 뱅킹 부하패턴, 실제 부하패턴, 가상 부하패턴에서 단위전력당 유효응답 수가 각각 1.66%, 2.9%, 3.84% 향상되고, QoS 관점에서는 각각 0.45%, 1.33%, 8.82% 향상되었다.

  • In this paper, an epsilon near zero (ENZ) tunneling circuit using a double-ridge rectangular waveguide (RWG) is proposed for the miniaturization of a waveguide component. The proposed ENZ channel and is located in the middle of the input-output RWG (IORWG). The ratio of the height to the width of the channel waveguide is very small compared to the IORWG. By properly adjusting the ridge dimensions, the tunneling frequency of the proposed ENZ channel can be lowered to near the cut-off frequency of the IORWG. For the proposed ENZ tunneling circuit, the approach adopted for extracting the effective permittivity, effective permeability;normalized effective wave impedance, and propagation constant from the simulated scattering parameters was explained. The extracted parameters verified that the proposed channel is an ENZ channel and electromagnetic energy is tunneling through the channel. Simulation and measurement results of the fabricated ENZ channel structure agreed.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate any changes in acoustic qualities of voice as ,a function of nasalance, in order to determine the relationship between vocal quality and nasalance. Twenty normal subjects (10 males and 10 females) vocalized /a/, /$\tilde{a}$/, and /a $\eta$/. The changes in nasalance and acoustic characteristics of the voice were analyzed by Nasometer (Model 6200-3, Kay Elemetrics, co) and Dr, Speech 4.0 (Tiger Electronics, Co), respectively. One-way ANOVA was used to examine any changes in jitter, shimmer, harmonics-to-noise ratio, and normalized noise energy relative to the nasalance in 3 types of vocalization. The Person r correlation coefficient was used to identify the relationship between the nasalance and the vocal quality. There was no statistically significant changes in jitter, shimmer, HNR and NNE. The jitter, however, tended to increase as the nasalance socre increased, compared to the other vocal parameters. In addition, the NNE showed an increase on / $\tilde{a}$/, and /a $\eta$/, more on the /a $\eta$/. Thus, it was speculated that NNE could be used to identify or screen resonant disorders with hypernasality

  • Temporal behavior of the laser induced incandescence (LII) signal is often used for soot particle sizing, which is possible because the cooling behavior of a laser heated particle is dependent on the particle size. In present study, LII signals of soot particles are modeled using two non-linear coupled differential equations deduced from the energy- and mass-balance of the process. The objective of this study is to see the effects of particle size, laser fluence on soot temperature characteristics and cooling behavior. Together with this, we focus on validating our simulation code by comparing with other previous results. Results of normalized LII signals obtained from various laser fluence conditions showed a good agreement with that of Dalzell and Sarofim's. It could be found that small particles cool faster at a constant laser fluence. And it also could be observed that vaporization is dominant process of heat loss during first 100ns after laser pulse, then heat conduction played most important role while thermal radiation had little influence all the time.

  • In order to retrieve the latent and sensible heat fluxes, high-resolution airborne imageries with visible, near infrared, and thermal infrared bands and ground-base meteorology measurements are utilized in this paper. The retrieval scheme is based on the balance of surface energy budget and momentum equations. There are three basic surface parameters including surface albedo $(\alpha)$, normalized difference vegetation index (NOVI) and surface kinetic temperature (TO). Lowtran 7 code is used to correct the atmosphere effect. The imageries were taken on 28 April and 5 May 2003. From the scattering plot of data set, we observed the extreme dry and wet pixels to derive the fitting of dry and wet controlled lines, respectively. Then the sensible heat and latent heat fluxes are derived from through a partitioning factor A. The retrieved latent and sensible heat fluxes are compared with in situ measurements, including eddy correlation and porometer measurements. It is shown that the retrieved fluxes from our scheme match with the measurements better than those derived from the S-SEBI model.
