  • The design and synthesis of protein-like polymers is a fundamental challenge in materials science. A biomimetic approach is to explore the impact of monomer sequence on non-natural polymer structure and function. We present the aqueous self-assembly of two peptoid polymers into extremely thin two-dimensional (2D) crystalline sheets directed by periodic amphiphilicity, electrostatic recognition and aromatic interactions. Peptoids are sequence-specific, oligo-N-substituted glycine polymers designed to mimic the structure and functionality of proteins. Mixing a 1:1 ratio of two oppositely charged peptoid 36 mers of a specific sequence in aqueous solution results in the formation of giant, free-floating sheets with only 2.7 nm thickness. Direct visualization of aligned individual peptoid chains in the sheet structure was achieved using aberration-corrected transmission electron microscopy. Specific binding of a protein to ligand-functionalized sheets was also demonstrated. The synthetic flexibility and biocompatibility of peptoids provide a flexible and robust platform for integrating functionality into defined 2D nanostructures. In the later part of my talk, we describe the use of metal ions to construct two-dimensional hybrid films that have the ability to self-heal. Incubation of biomimetic peptoid polymers with specific divalent metal ions results in the spontaneous formation of uniform multilayers at the air-water interface. We anticipate that ease of synthesis and transfer of these two-dimensional materials may have many potential applications in catalysis, gas storage and sensing, optics, nanomaterial synthesis, and environmentally responsive scaffolds.

  • The sloshing flows in the cargo tank model of a ship are measured by PIV and are analyzed with the results. The measurement system is consisted of a Nd-Yag laser(120mJ, 15Hz). two cameras($1k\;{\times}\;1k$) and a host computer. Four experimental cases were tested for the tank model. in which swaying motions are made by 6 DOF-motion platform. The amplitudes of swaying are 9.76mm and 29.29mm, and the frequencies are 0.633Hz and 0.828Hz. The measurement regions are the vertical plane 50mm away from the front wall of the tank where a pump tower is installed. It was verified that the flow patterns of the sloshing are similar each other when the swaying amplitudes are similar.

  • Smoke propagation for the Daegu Metro fire is reproduced by a reduced-scale model experiment. The three-story station building was modeled with 1/20-scale, and the tunnel connected to the platform was not completely modeled because of its length. To include the flow resistance the tunnel provides the mesh screens were used in the model. The fire scenario was selected based on the fire growth rate of the metro car seat where the fire initiated. The time when smoke arrived at each compartment in the station building was measured by thermocouples and visualization. Regarding fire ventilation, the air supply that has been accepted as conventional design in a subway metro building intensifies smoke spread. The results show that the whole building was filled with smoke in about 10 minutes in case of no ventilation.

  • To address the need for autonomous control of remote and distributed mobile systems, Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communications are rapidly gaining attention from both academia and industry. M2M communications have recently been deployed in smart grid, home networking, health care, and vehicular networking environments. This paper focuses on M2M communications in the vehicular networking context and investigates areas where M2M principles can improve vehicular networking. Since connected vehicles are essentially a network of machines that are communicating, preferably autonomously, vehicular networks can benefit a lot from M2M communications support. The M2M paradigm enhances vehicular networking by supporting large-scale deployment of devices, cross-platform networking, autonomous monitoring and control, visualization of the system and measurements, and security. We also present some of the challenges that still need to be addressed to fully enable M2M support in the vehicular networking environment. Of these, component standardization and data security management are considered to be the most significant challenges.

  • 인체 데이터를 살펴볼 수 있는 환경은 의학적으로 중요하고, 교육적으로도 필요하다. 의대 학생의 경우 인체 데이터를 사용해서 실습을 해 볼 수 있다면, 실제 수술 등의 의료 행위에 큰 도움을 받을 수 있다. 인체 데이터 시뮬레이션을 하기 위해서는 여러 수준의 시스템이 필요하다. 첫 단계가 데이터를 시각화하여 관찰할 수 있는 환경을 제공하는 시각화 플랫폼이다. 본 논문에서는 기존 시각화 플랫폼을 이용하여 인체 데이터를 보여주는 변환 방식에 대해서 밝힌다. 기존에는 기계적인 제약 사항으로 인해 많은 양의 3차원 데이터를 인터넷을 통한 서비스에 어려움이 있었다. 현재는 개인 피씨의 성능 향상에 의해 3차원 데이터도 인터넷으로 일정 부분 서비스가 가능하다. 시각화 플랫폼을 현재의 환경에서 활용하여 인체 데이터를 관찰할 수 있도록 구현하는 것이 본 논문의 목표이다.

  • We propose a graphical object query language called OGPL (Odysseus Graphical Query Language) for Odysseus object databases. By employing simple graphical notations, OGQL provides a user friendly database interface for object databases. OGQL provides a simple graphical notation for advanced features of the object queries such as path expressions including cycles (cyclic queries). Cyclic queries have not been handled in the previous graphical query languages because of their complexity and ambiguity in devising appropriate graphical notations. GOQL also provides a graphical notation for inheritance hierarchy. Since OGQL has been implemented in Java and JDBC standard interface, users can access the remote databases in a web environment and the system has platform-independent architecture.

  • 지상의 관측소에서 특정 인공위성을 찾아내기 위해서는 위성의 정밀궤도 계산이 필요하다. 궤도상의 인공위성의 위치는 시간에 따라 계속 변하므로 이러한 위성의 위치를 실시간으로 추적하기 위해서는 컴퓨터를 이용한 계산이 필수적이다. 정밀한 계산 결과를 얻기 위하여 태양과 지상 관측소의 위치는 Astronomical Almanac과 지구 타원체 모델을 이용하여 계산 하였다. 인공위성의 궤도는 미공군 북미방공사령부(NORAD)에서 발표하는 TLE를 초기값으로 이용하여 J2 섭동효과를 포함한 위성의 위치 및 속도의 변화를 계산하여 SkyView로 나타내었다. 이렇게 나타낸 SkyView의 결과를 실제 위성의 궤적과 비교하여 위성의 궤도를 검증하였으며, 시간에 따른 위성의 광도 곡선 변화 계산 루틴을 작성하여 실제 위성을 찾아내기 위한 기초자료로 활용이 가능하도록 하였다. 모든 계산을 위한 프로그램을 Visual Studio.net 2010 환경에서 C++ 언어를 이용하여 작성하였으며, 결과를 나타내기 위하여 Nokia 사의 Cross Platform 라이브러리인 Qt를 이용하여 UI 제작 및 Visualization을 수행하였다. Qt 라이브러리는 C++ 언어를 기반으로 작성된 플랫폼 독립적인 GUI 라이브러리로써 MS Windows, Linux, MacOS 환경에서 사용이 가능하다. 이를 통해 운영체제에 관계없이 모든 컴퓨터 환경에서 동일한 유저 인터페이스를 이용하여 계산을 할 수 있다. 본 연구는 향후 우주물체탐색에 있어 독자적인 운영을 위한 프로그램으로 활용할 예정이다.

  • Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a noninvasive technique for microscopic investigation of tissue. We thought that the OCT method could be a potential tool for monitoring the healing process of a tendon. In this study we used two rat models, denervated and non-denervated groups, to observe a variety of healing phases of Achilles tendon (AT) injury. We made samples of AT injury lesions, to take OCT images and to make histopathological samples of serial sectional tissue. In an OCT image the denervated rat showed no specific finding, but the non-denervated rat showed a large defect lesion that was scaffolding tissue. OCT findings combined with pathologic findings showed advantages in visualization of tendon microstructure over other imaging modalities such as MRI and US, and OCT is beneficial to making a treatment plan, especially the timing and intensity of rehabilitation. Therefore a multimodal platform using OCT for evaluation of tendon injury may be potentially useful for many applications.
