A dynamic model was developed to predict the Escherichia coli cell counts in pig trotters at changing temperatures. Five-strain mixture of pathogenic E. coli at 4 Log CFU/g were inoculated to cooked pig trotter samples. The samples were stored at 10℃, 20℃, and 25℃. The cell count data was analyzed with the Baranyi model to compute the maximum specific growth rate (μ_max) (Log CFU/g/h) and lag phase duration (LPD) (h). The kinetic parameters were analyzed using a polynomial equation, and a dynamic model was developed using the kinetic models. The model performance was evaluated using the accuracy factor (A_f), bias factor (B_f), and root mean square error (RMSE). E. coli cell counts increased (p<0.05) in pig trotter samples at all storage temperatures (10℃-25℃). LPD decreased (p<0.05) and μ_max increased (p<0.05) as storage temperature increased. In addition, the value of h₀ was similar at 10℃ and 20℃, implying that the physiological state was similar between 10℃ and 20℃. The secondary models used were appropriate to evaluate the effect of storage temperature on LPD and μ_max. The developed kinetic models showed good performance with RMSE of 0.618, B_f of 1.02, and A_f of 1.08. Also, performance of the dynamic model was appropriate. Thus, the developed dynamic model in this study can be applied to describe the kinetic behavior of E. coli in cooked pig trotters during storage.

Physicochemical and sensory characteristics of turnip pickles added with chitosan and/or beet water extract were investigated. Turnip root slices (4${\times}$1${\times}$0.5 cm) were salted with NaCl and CaCl$_2$, soaked into pickling solution, and then stored at 2$0^{\circ}C$. Throughout the whole storage periods, pH, acidity, saltiness and soluble solid content of three pickles (C, turnip pickle; CC, turnip pickle+chitosan; CBC, turnip pickle+chitosan+beet water extract) ranged to 3.1 ∼ 3.5, 1.5 ∼ 1.7%, 0.5 ∼ 0.7% and 24.5 ∼ 28.5$^{\circ}$Brix, respectively. There were no significant differences between three pickles in saltiness, anthocyanin and reducing sugar content. However, acidity and hardness of CC and CBC were higher than those of control C throughout the storage time. While Hunter's a value of CBC was higher than those of CC or C. Sensory results showed that the best edible time was the 14th day of storage, and at that time, scores of CC and CBC were higher in over-all preference (7.8 and 8.4) than those of C (6.1), and CC and CBC maintained good sensory qualities until 28th day of storage, compared to C (p<0.05).

Physicochemical and sensory characteristics of turnip pickle prepared with different pickling spices were investigated. Turnip root slices(4${\times}$1${\times}$0.5 cm) were salted with NaCl and CaCl$_2$, and then soaked into pickling solution added to commercial (pickle P) or manufactured (pickle M) pickling spice, and then stored at 2$0^{\circ}C$. Throughout the whole storage periods, the acidity, pH, saltiness and reducing sugar content of two pickles were 3.1∼3.5%, 1.4∼1.7, 0.2∼0.6% and 25.2∼30.4 mg/mL, respectively. There were no significant differences between two pickles in saltiness, anthocyanin, reducing sugar content, color(Hunter L, a and b value) and hardness. However, acidity of pickle M was higher than that of pickle P throughout the storage time. Sensory results showed that the best edible time was the 14th day of storage, and at that time, scores of pickle M was higher in 리avor(7.3 and 6.9), taste(7.8 and 5.4) and over-all preference(8.0 and 6.1) than those of pickle P, and pickle M maintained good sensory qualities until 28th day of storage, compared to pickle P(p<0.05).

Using the logarithmic methods and the generalized method of moments (GMM), this study developed carbon storage equations for maple trees (Acer palmatum Thunb.) planted in an urban settlement area. A total of 20 maple trees of various ages and diameters were destructively harvested to determine their dry weight and carbon concentration by component. The allometric equations with DBH and DBH²×H as independent variables were developed to estimate the carbon storage for each tree component. The carbon concentration of tree components was the highest in stem wood (49.8%) and lowest in stem bark (46.5%). Allometric equations to estimate the carbon storage of tree components (stem, root, aboveground, and total) showed a similar coefficient of determinations (R²) between the allometric equations of the logarithmic method (0.7494-0.9036) and the GMM (0.7085-0.8847). However, the R² values of the leaves and branches were in the range of 0.3027 to 0.6380, lower than those of the R² of the other tree components. These results indicate that the carbon storage of maple trees growing in urban settlement areas can be efficiently predicted from the equations of GMM methods in the case of a small sample size or the heteroscedasticity of logarithmic equations.

This study aimed to develop biomass allometric equations and estimate carbon emission factors, such as the wood density, biomass-expansion factor, and root-to-shoot ratio, for Platanus occidentalis and Metasequoia glyptostroboides planted in urban areas. Twenty M. glyptostroboides and 25 P. occidentalis trees were harvested, and the dry weights and stem volumes of stems, branches, leaves, and roots (>5 mm) were measured. The wood densities of M. glyptostroboides and P. occidentalis were 0.293 ± 0.008 g cm^-3 and 0.509 ± 0.018 g cm^-3, and the biomass-expansion factors were 1.738 ± 0.031 and 1.561 ± 0.035. The root-to-shoot ratios were 0.446 ± 0.009 and 0.402 ± 0.012. The uncertainty tests (coefficient of variation, %) gave 2.8% and 3.5% values for wood density, 1.8% and 2.3% for biomass-expansion factor, and 2.1% and 2.9% for root-to-shoot ratio, respectively. Among the developed allometric equations, Model I using the diameter at breast height (DBH) was suitable. The allometric equations of M. glyptostroboides and P. occidentalis above ground were y = 1.679 (DBH)^1.315 and y = 0.505 (DBH)^1.896, and the allometric equations of the root and total were y = 0.746 (DBH)^1.315, y = 0.301 (DBH)^1.751, y = 2.422 (DBH)^1.316, and y = 0.787 (DBH)^1.858. If the carbon-emission factors of this study and biomass allometric equations of the three developed models are used to estimate the carbon storage and biomass of urban forests, errors caused by not considering the use of fixed factors and the environmental differences can be reduced.

This study theoretically reviews the basin storage coefficient and concentration time using the Nash model, a simple unit hydrograph theory. First, the storage coefficient and concentration time of Nash instantaneous unit hydrograph (IUH) are derived based on their definitions, whose characteristics as well as their relationship are also reviewed. Additionally, several empirical equations of storage coefficient and concentration time commonly used in Korea are evaluated by comparing them with those for the Nash IUH. Major results of this study are summarized as follows. (1) The concentration time of Nash IUH is approximately linearly proportional to the number of linear reservoirs, but the storage coefficient non-linearly to the square root. That is, if increasing the number of linear reservoirs by four times, the concentration time becomes also increased by about four times, but the storage coefficient only about two times. This result has a special meaning to understand the effect of basin subdivision on the concentration time and storage coefficient. (2) The storage coefficient and concentration time of Nash IUH are not independent each other, so their independent estimation does not make any physical sense. As the concentration time among the two is more sensitive to the number of linear reservoirs, which should be estimated first, then the storage coefficient considering the concentration time estimated. (3) Empirical equations of concentration time can be divided into two groups, one following the linear channel theory and the other not, whose equation forms are also found to be very similar. This result indicates that the characteristic factors dominating the concentration time are very similar, indicating the possibility of its regionalization over a basin with consistent equation forms. (4) Those for storage coefficient like the Russell formulae are found to consider the physical characteristics of a basin, so their unreasonable applications could sufficiently be excluded.

This study presents a structural health monitoring (SHM) method for bolted connections by using multi-channel wireless impedance sensor nodes and multiple PZT-interfaces. To achieve the objective, the following approaches are implemented. Firstly, a PZT-interface is designed to monitor bolt loosening in bolted connection based on variation of electro-mechanical(EM) impedance signatures. Secondly, a wireless impedance sensor node is designed for autonomous, cost-efficient and multi-channel monitoring. For the sensor platform, Imote2 is selected on the basis of its high operating speed, low power requirement and large storage memory. Finally, the performance of the wireless sensor node and the PZT-interfaces is experimentally evaluated for a bolt-connection model Damage monitoring method using root mean square deviation(RMSD) index of EM impedance signatures is utilized to estimate the strength of the bolted joint.

In the field of software reuse, several methods for storage and retrieval of assets abound. However, these methods often find their limits; they fail to turn up the suitable reusable assets that satisfy the needs of a particular software system under development. Two problems are the root cause of this situation. One is the lack of accurate semantics for describing software assets. The other is the ignorance of the user query context. In such a context, this paper presents an XML-based asset representation model for describing all kinds of software asset that can be reused within software development process. The proposed model provides semantic metadata for describing assets oriented user context in order to build the foundation for semantic reasoning in the retrieval process.

본 연구는 JPEG(Joint Photographic Experts Group)표준 영상압축 방법을 이용한 원격측정 (remote measuring) 시스템을 다룬다. 많은 디지탈 비디오(digital video)이 응용중에서 주요 어려움은 디지탈 영상(digital image)을 직접적으로 표현하기 위해 필요한 방대한 데이터의 처리문제이다. 그리고 디지탈 영상의 직접적인 사용은 고수준 기억용량(high storage)과 전송비용(transmission costs)으로 인하여 응용상 여러가지 제약조건이 수반되었다. 이런 이유로 인하여 여러가지 영상압축 기법이 개발되어왔으며 본 연구는 정지영상(still pictures)에 대하여 JPEG 표준을 사용한 영상압축과 압축된 영상을 사용하여 실제 제조업의 공정검사에 응용하는 것이다. 수행도 평가척도로서 원래영상과 압축된 영상과의 압축비, 원래영상과 압축된 영상과의 픽셀(pixel)의 회색도 값(gray-level value)의 평균과 RMSE(root mean square error), 그리고 원래영상과 압축된 영상을 원거리(또는 근거리)로 전송하여 전송된 압축영상을 푼 후 두 지점간의 거리 측정에 따르는 실제거리와 측정거리에 대한 오차를 이용하였다.

전기자동차(EV)뿐만 아니라 ESS(Energy Storage System) 등의 사용량이 증가하면서 리튬이온배터리의 중요성은 점점 커지고 있다. 리튬 이온 배터리의 정확한 상태를 추정하는 것은 배터리의 안전하고 신뢰성 있는 작동을 위해 매우 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 AEKF(Adaptive Extended Kalman Filter)를 이용한 배터리 파라미터와 충전상태(SOC, State of Charge)를 추정하고, 이를 활용하여 배터리의 건강상태(SOH, State of Health)를 추정하는 간단한 알고리즘을 제시한다. AEKF에 파라미터 값을 적용하여 SOC를 추정하고, 추정된 SOC값과 전류 적산을 이용하여 SOH를 추정한다. SOC 오차에 따른 SOH 추정 값의 편차는 SOC 연산 간격을 늘리고 가중치 필터를 적용하여 최소화시킴으로써 결과의 정확성을 향상했다. 다양한 자동차의 표준 주행 패턴을 적용한 실험을 통해 제안된 방법을 이용하여 얻어진 SOH 추정 결과는 RMSE(Root Mean Square Error) 1.428% 이내임을 검증하였다.
