하천으로 해수의 유입을 막기 위해 하구에 수문을 설치함으로써 해수유입은 막을 수 있었으나 이로 인해 하천의 유속은 급격히 감소하여 흐름이 없는 하천으로 변화되었다. 하천은 흐름이 있어야 하천의 기능을 유지할 수 있기에 본 연구에서는 하구에 수문 설치로 인하여 흐름이 발생하지 않은 하천인 심곡천을 대상으로 수문 운영을 통해 하천의 흐름을 개선하도록 검토하였다. 조위에 따라 수문을 운영하게 되면 최고 및 최저 목표수위를 유지하면서 현재 0.05 m/s의 느린 유속에서 약 10배 정도 빠른 0.49 m/s까지 상승시켜 물이 흐르는 하천으로 변화시킬 수 있는 것으로 검토되었다.

Biological and chemical assays(e.g., clinical tests for medical diagnosis) are needed to handle small liquid volume with high accuracy and high reliability. Many micro-dispensing systems using various actuation methods have been developed and applied. In this research, we confirm repeatability of the cartridge-type dispensing system with various measuring methods for guarantee of an acceptable reliability. We systematically examine the dispensed volume variation and dispense rate during 500,000 shots of sequential actuation. Using the same method, we confirm the repeatability of dispensed volume while varying operating conditions and design parameter(i.e., outlet size) of the dispensing system. Also, we examine the consistency of the dispensed volume of droplet while varying the operating pressures. Furthermore, we repeatedly measure differences between an actual dispensed volume and a target volume. According to our results, it is expected that the stable and reliable performance of our dispensing system can effectively be used in various applications containing bio-solutions.

Adiabatic demagnetization refrigerator (ADR) for hydrogen re-liquefaction operating between 24 K and 20 K has been designed. $Dy_{0.9}Gd_{0.1}Ni_2$, whose Curie temperature is 24 K, is selected as a magnetic refrigerant. The magnetic refrigerant powder is sintered with oxygen-free high purity copper (OFHC) powder to enhance its effective thermal conductivity as well as to achieve relatively high frequency. A perforated plate heat exchanger (PPHE) operated with forced convection is utilized as a heat switch. The forced convection heat switch is expected to have fast response relative to a conventional gas-gap heat switch. A conduction-cooled high Tc superconducting (HTS) magnet is employed to apply external magnetic field variation on a magnetic refrigerant. $2^{nd}$ generation GdBCO coated conductor HTS tape with Kapton$^{(R)}$ insulation (SUNAM Inc.) will be utilized for the HTS magnet. The magnetization and demagnetization processes are to be achieved by the AC operation of the HTS magnet. The designed magnetic field and target ramp rate of the HTS magnet are over 4 T with 180 A and 0.4 T/s, respectively. AC loss distribution on HTS magnet is theoretically estimated.

We have established a pulsed electron beam generation system with an energy of 200[keV], pulse repetition rate of 200[Hz], and several tens of [${\mu}s$] pulse width. The system is characterized by a cold cathode that is simpler than the hot cathode. Target object does not need to be scanned because of large aperture electron beam of 300[$cm^2$]. Electron source is secondary electrons that are generated when the ions from the glow discharge collide on the cathode surface. In this paper, the discharge current characteristics are investigated experimentally as a function of He gas pressure in order to obtain stable glow discharge. And computer simulations are carried out as a preliminary study for the development of low energy large aperture electron beam generator. The variation of electon beam current is investigated as a function of rising time of high voltage when 20[kV] potential is applied in 20[mTorr] pressure.

There arc several important issues in AC PDP researches such as cost reduction, reliability, and good image quality. The properties of MgO layer is thought to be one of the most important (actors that affects the panel reliability through the firing voltage variation. The MgO thin film mainly has (111), (200) and (220) crystal orientation. It is reported that (111)-oriented film helps decreasing the discharge voltage, and (200)-oriented film improves the misfiring on high temperature and the image sticking. In this study, we investigated the relations between the crystal orientation and e-beam evaporation process parameters such asdeposition rate, temperature of substrate, and distance between the target(MgO tablet) and the substrate.

This study provides an application of datamining approach to CQI(Continuous Quality Improvement) using the discharge summary. First, we found a process variation in hospital infection rate by SPC (Statistical Process Control) technique. Second, importance of factors influencing hospital infection was inferred through the decision tree analysis which is a classification method in data-mining approach. The most important factor was surgery followed by comorbidity and length of operation. Comorbidity was further divided into age and principal diagnosis and the length of operation was further divided into age and chief complaint. 24 rules of hospital infection were generated by the decision tree analysis. Of these, 9 rules with predictive prover greater than 50% were suggested as guidelines for hospital infection control. The optimum range of target group in hospital infection control were Identified through the information gain summary. Association rule, which is another kind of datamining method, was performed to analyze the relationship between principal diagnosis and comorbidity. The confidence score, which measures the decree of association, between urinary tract infection and causal bacillus was the highest, followed by the score between postoperative wound disruption find postoperative wound infection. This study demonstrated how datamining approach could be used to provide information to support prospective surveillance of hospital infection. The datamining technique can also be applied to various areas fur CQI using other hospital databases.

This research uses a new approach to analyze the extent of influence journal papers have on the progress of varied research fields by estimation of subject-based influence on research other than impact factor that relies on citation index. It is initiated with the hypothesis that earlier established citation relations between journal and citing paper, which reveals the research field that contains the highest citation index and hence has received the greatest contribution from a particular journal, would have inconsistent contribution to the research field over the year of journal publication. The target research is primarily 128 journal papers and 4,123 citing papers from Information Systems Research published in the years 2001, 2004, 2007, and 2010. The characteristics of citation history and hallmarks of research field of citing papers were studied and analysis on significant distinction between citing fields based on the year of publication was performed. The analysis results show the order of citation rate to be highest from Computer Science (2,221 cases), Business & Economics (2,191 cases), and Information Science & Library Science (1,901 cases). The citation history of the journal, nonetheless, indicates increase in citation during 2-3 years after the earliest publication till it achieves constant citation. The statistical analysis shows significant variation in citing fields in accordance with the publication year; especially in 2010, journal contribution has increased in the fields of Business & Economics, Operations Research & Management Science, and Health Care Sciences & Services but, however, is reduced in Education & Educational Research and Social Sciences - Other Topics.

Background: The discovery that microRNAs (miRNAs) regulate proliferation, invasion and metastasis provides a principal molecular basis of tumor heterogeneity. Microvessel distribution is an important characteristic of solid tumors, with significant hypoxia occurring in the center of tumors with low blood flow. The distribution of miR-374a in breast tumors was examined as a factor likely to be important in breast cancer progression. Methods: Breast tissue samples from 40 patients with breast cancer were classified into two groups: a highly invasive and metastatic group (HIMG) and a low-invasive and metastatic Group (LIMG). Samples were collected from the center and edge of each tumor. In each group, six specimens were examined by microRNA array, and the remaining 14 specimens were used for real-time RT-qPCR, Western blot and immunohistochemical analyses. Correlation analysis was performed for the miRNAs and target proteins. Follow-up was carried out during 28 months to 68 months after surgery, and survival data were analyzed. Results: In the LIMG, the relative content of miR-374a was lower in the center of the tumor than at its edge; in the HIMG, it was lower at the edge of the tumor, and miR-374a levels were lower in breast cancer tissues than in normal tissues. There was no difference between VEGF-A and VCAM-1 mRNA levels at the edge and center of the tumor; however, we observed a significant difference between VEGF-A and VCAM-1 protein expression levels in these two regions. There was a negative correlation between miR-374a and target protein levels. The microvessel density (MVD) was lower in the center of the tumor than at its edge in HIMG, but the LIMG vessels were uniformly distributed. There was a significant positive correlation between MVD and the number of lymph node metastases (Pearson correlation, r=0.912, P<0.01). The median follow-up time was 48.5 months. LIMG had higher rate of disease-free survival (100%, P=0.013) and longer median survival time (66 months) than HIMG, which had a lower rate of 75% and shorter median survival time (54 months). Conclusions: Our data demonstrated miR-374a to be differentially distributed in breast cancer; VEGF-A and VCAM-1 mRNA had coincident distribution, and the distribution of teh respective proteins was uneven and opposite to that for the miR-374a. These data might explain the differences in the distribution of MVD in breast cancer and variation in breast cancer prognosis.

본 연구는 컨테이너 물동량이 컨테이너 터미널을 운영할 때 얼마만큼 영향을 주는지를 알아보기 위하여 SD기법을 이용하여 모델을 구축하고, 이를 이용하여 정량적인 결과치를 분석하며, 의사결정자들에게 시사점을 제공하는 것을 연구의 목적으로 하였다. 연구의 대상은 인천남항에 위치한 'A'컨테이너 터미널을 선정하였으며, 시뮬레이션 기간은 2004년부터 2020년까지 설정하였다. 터미널 운영에 관한 평가지표로는 터미널의 '총 매출액', 'C/Y가동률', 'G/C가동률'을 선정하였으며, 물동량 변동요인은 '세계교역량 증감률', '동북 3국 교역량 증감률', '대미환율 증감률' 등 대외적 변동요인을 이용하였다. 연구결과 2020년을 기준으로 'A' 컨테이너 터미널의 수출입 물동량은 약 88만TEU로 예상되며, 매출액은 약 80억원으로 예상된다. 그리고 G/C의 가동률은 약 65% 기록하였다. 하지만 컨테이너 적재량 및 C/Y의 가동률은 변화가 없는 것으로 나타났는데 이는 C/Y의 처리능력을 초과하였기 때문이라 판단할 수 있으며 'A'컨테이너 터미널 의사결정자들은 C/Y 공간확보의 시급함을 인식하여야 할 것으로 분석되었다.
