In this study a trickling filter system was developed by using polypropylene media and polypropylene nylon media that has recently been developed. The experiment analyzed an ability of water purification of the two plastic media and the effects of biomass on the final effluent. As recycling ratio increases, polypropylene nylon suspender showed higher efficiency by 20%; and, when media height was lengthened twice, efficiency increased about 10%. EPS and biomass increased in proportion to the increase of recycling ratio, and bound-TOC showed a similar trend with bound-EPS (extra-cellular polymeric substances) concentration.

PPCP (pharmaceuticals and personal care products) is known as micropollutant that is released from wastewater treatment plant. Research represents that these contaminants have increased in the last 10 years. This study tries to make four different trickling filter systems using plastic fiber media to remove PPCP such as acetaminophen, ibuprofen, caffeine. The results of the experiment that compares the process efficiencies of four different systems (A, B, C and D) using HBC media show that almost all the reactor has around 95% removal efficiency. Slope type HBC reactor has twice higher efficiency rather than submerged type reactor to remove PPCP in water system. In 8 hours, 89% of acetaminophen, ibuprofen, caffeine are removed in slope type reactor while 39% of them in submerged type.

Rapid growth of digitalization in telecommunication and broadcasting and remarkable enhancement in broadband and high speed transmission capability of media raised a problem of integrating communication and broadcasting. In order to implement this, the government has selected construction of Broadband Convergence Network (BcN) as a main new growth engine of the country. The BcN will be realized based on FTTH and Broadband Home Network (BHN) will be implemented through this solution. Transfer rate and bandwidth required for the BcN to be constructed aiming at integration of communication and broadcasting will be specified and the performance of basic transmission media, the plastic optical fiber, will be discussed in order to present its appropriateness.

Industrialization and modern developments have led to an influx of toxic heavy metals into the aquatic environment, and the accumulation of heavy metals has serious adverse effects on humans. Among the various heavy metal treatment methods, adsorption is very useful and frequently used. Plastic materials, such as polypropylene and polyethylene, have been widely used as filter media due to their mechanical and chemical stability. However, the surface of plastic material is inert and therefore the adsorption capability of heavy metals is very limited. In this study, granular media and fiber media composed of polypropylene and polyethylene are used, and the surface modification was conducted in order to increase adsorption capability toward heavy metals. Oxygen plasma generated hydroxyl groups on the surface of the media to activate the surface, and then acrylic acid was synthesized on the surface. The grafted carboxyl group was confirmed by FT-IR and SEM. Heavy metal adsorption capability of pristine and surface modified adsorbents was also evaluated. Overall, heavy metal adsorption capability was increased by surface modification due to electrostatic interaction between the carboxyl groups and heavy metal ions. Fibrous PP/PE showed lower improvement compared to granular PP media because pore blockage occurred by the surface modification step, thereby inhibiting mass transfer.

A research on several characteristics such as volume breakdown and surface discharge of insulators for a termination of power transmission class HTS cable was performed. We investigated the surface discharge of glass fiber reinforced plastic (GFRP) under air, cryogenic nitrogen gas and nitrogen gas media. The breakdown characteristics of these media were studied. Experimental results revealed that flashover voltage greatly depends on pressure, temperature, the kinds of insulating media and voltages, but it is slightly affected by shape and material of electrode. The breakdown voltage of liquid nitrogen, cryogenic nitrogen gas and nitrogen gas deeply depends on the shape and dimension of electrode, kinds of voltages and pressure. Moreover, the breakdown voltage of cryogenic nitrogen gas and flashover voltage of GFRP in the cryogenic nitrogen gas is also influenced by temperature and vapour-mist density of the gas.

본 논문은 플라스틱 광섬유(POF)를 연결한 네트워크에서 광 부호분할다중접근(OCDMA)기술의 성능을 분석한다. 최근에 POF는 무게가 가볍고, 중심선의 직경이 크며, 유연하고, 쉽게 설치할 수 있는 특성이 있기 때문에 POF를 이용한 광전송은 커다란 주목을 받고 있다. 특히 POF의 광대역(broad band) 특성은 OCDMA기술에 기초한 네트워크 연결 전송매체로서 각광을 받고 있다. 일반적인 OCDMA 시스템은 전송로의 수량이 BER특성에 의해서 단지 제한된 단위만을 동시에 연결하고 전송할 수 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 본 논문에서는 새로운 다우선 예약프로토콜을 제안하였다. 이 프로토콜과 분산 조정 알고리듬을 이용하여, 통신로 내부와 목표지로 가는 정보의 충돌을 피할 수 있다. 이 프로토콜은 시간지연이 서로 다른 다매체정보의 전송을 효과적으로 지원할 수 있다. 데이터 분석과 모의실험을 실행하여, 여러 시스템 매개변수에 의존하는 네트워크 출력과 평균지연을 조사했다. 그 결과, OCDMA기술에 근거한 POF를 네트워크를 사용하는 다우선 예약 프로토콜이 효율적이라는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

Recently, demands on thin multi-layer printed circuit boards(PCB) have been rapidly increased with broad spread of personal portable digital appliances such as multi-media. In case of mobile phone, however, the fact that PCBs have low flexural strength might cause defects. The purpose of this study is to improve the flexural strength by substituting the well-known GFRP(glass fiber reinforced plastic) for CFRP(carbon fiber reinforced plastic). Firstly, finite element simulation was carried out using ABAQUS to find out a unique CFRP layer that has a role to sustain the applied forces mainly in PCB. Secondly, three point bending tests were conducted with the newly designed CFRP PCB model to verify the improvement of the flexural strength. Consequently, it is shown that PCB layered with the CFRP on both outer sides of the board can be used to improve the flexural strength effectively.

Body has been high-lightened as one of the most important theme since the philosophy and the arts are focused on it in the late 20 century. Resurgence of interests in human body has been based on the skepticism on rapid digitalization and do-materialization currently undergoing in electronic media environments. Artists have been endeavoring more and more to find a synthesis which links the conceptual and the sensuous in their works as digitalization gets faster and faster. The Bodily-oriented art uses its visceral qualities, either literally or metaphorically, to engage our total being, not just our mental consciousness, in building a sensuous, evocative statement. Its transcendent ideas are inter- mixed with the fabric of the world. We are touched by this art not only because we understand it cognitively, but because we "feel"it. These characteristics of textile arts caused gradual increase of soft-sculpture works using textiles and implies possibilities of inter-grade of physical and mental world. Ann Hamilton, Magdalena Abakanowiz, Folly Apfelbaum and Pallid Dougherty are, for example, related to the fiber arts. It would be of worth to study the characteristics of contemporary faber-art works, especially done by Abakanowiz who has been regarded as a dominant pioneer in the contemporary fiber arts from the viewpoint of inter-grade of the physicals and the mental. This paper, therefore, deals with the Abaknowiz′works in the context of human body and body-signs. Life and works might be classified into 5 stages; first, learning period since her birth in 1930, second, creation period of Abakan, third, remodelling period of Abakan, fourth, composition and dissolution period of Abakan and the last and fifth, new transformation period of Abakan. ′Abakan′through her whole life as an artist has been a plastic language and based ultimately on external human body but in various materials and forms.

In this study plastic optical fibers(POFs) were considered as light-transmitting media and substrates for the potential use in photocatalytic environmental purification system. After the characteristics of POFs in terms of light transmittance and absorption were determined at the beginning, the detailed investigation was further performed through the photocatalytic degradation of trichloroethylene(TCE), iso-propanol and etc. with TiO$_2$-coated optical fiber reactor systems(POFR). It is concluded that the use of POfs is preferred to quartz optical fibers(QOFs) since the advantages such as ease of handling, lower cost, relatively reasonable light attenuation at the wavelength of near 400nm can be obtained. Various geometrical reactor shapes have been constructed and applied for the last one and half years. For the use of POF in water phase treatment, however, more detailed scientific and engineering aspects should be envisaged. This case requires a suitable mixture to obtain more stable and innocuous immobilization of photocatalyst on POF.
