목 적: 방사선치료계획에 있어서 정상조직과 치료부위의 선량 분포는 매우 중요하다. 이에 본원에서는 유방암 환자를 대상으로 Three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3D-CRT), Helical tomotherapy (TOMO)의 방법으로 방사선치료계획을 세웠으며 이에 선량분포를 분석하여 실제 임상에서의 적용여부를 알아보고자 한다. 대상 및 방법: 20명의(좌측: 10명, 우측: 10명) 유방보존절제술 환자를 대상으로 시행하였으며 방법으로는 같은 조건에서 3D-CRT는 Philips사의 Pinnacle을, TOMO는 TomoTherapy사의 TOMO Planning System을 이용해 치료계획을 세웠다. Dose-Volume Histogram (DVH)의 prescribed dose (PD)에 대한 PTV의 Homogeneity index (HI)와 Conformity index (CI)를 구하였고, 정상조직의 dose- volume 관계를 비교하였다. 결 과: Homogeneity index (HI)와 Conformity, index (CI)는 TOMO에서 우수한 결과를 나타났다. $V_{-50-IB-NPTV}$ (the percentage ipsilateral non-PTV breast volume that was delivered 50% of the prescribed dose)는 3D-CRT: 40.4%, TOMO: 18.3%, $V_{20-IL}$ (the average ipsilateral lung volume percentage receiving 20% of the prescribed dose)는 3D-CRT: 4.8%, TOMO: 14.2%, $V_{20-10H}$ (the average heart volume percentage delivered 20% and 10% of the prescribed dose in left breast cancer)는 3D-CRT: 1.6%, 3% TOMO: 9.7%, 26.3%의 결과를 보여준다. 결 론: 유방암 환자의 방사선치료계획 방법들은 PTV에서 원하는 선량분포를 보여줬다. 그러나 TOMO는 좋은 Homogeneity index (HI), Conformity index (CI)와 Breast를 보호하는 장점이 있는 반면에 Lung과 Heart에서는 많은 피폭선량이 있음을 알 수 있기에 TOMO의 방사선치료계획시 주의해야 할 점으로 사료된다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the dose-volume indices and radiobiological indices according to the change in dose calculation grid size during the planning of nasopharyngeal cancer VMAT treatment. After performing the VMAT treatment plan using the 3.0 mm dose calculation grid size, dose calculation from 1.0 mm to 5.0 mm was performed repeatedly to obtain a dose volume histogram. The dose volume index and radiobiological index were evaluated using the obtained dose volume histogram. The smaller the dose calculation grid size, the smaller the mean dose for CTV and the larger the mean dose for PTV. For OAR of spinal cord, brain stem, lens and parotid gland, the mean dose did not show a significant difference according to the change in dose calculation grid size. The smaller the grid size, the higher the conformity of the dose distribution as the CI of the PTV increases. The CI and HI showed the best results at 3.0 mm. The smaller the dose calculation grid size, the higher the TCP of the PTV. The smaller the dose calculation grid size, the lower the NTCP of lens and parotid. As a result, when performing the nasopharynx cancer VMAT plan, it was found that the dose calculation grid size should be determined in consideration of dose volume index, radiobiological index, and dose calculation time. According to the results of various experiments, it was determined that it is desirable to apply a grid size of 2.0 - 3.0 mm.

The annals of Joseon Dynasty is the most valuable resource containing the record of Korean history and has been known as one of the UNESCO's Memory of the World Register. In some period, wax-treated paper was used in the annals of Joseon Dynasty to prevent the damage from pests. But, wax-treated volumes were discolored to brown, white or black, and partially cracked by the stiffened wax. It means that wax-treated volumes were damaged by the hardening and oxidizing of wax. The wax is considered as the first reason in damages on the wax-treated volume. Therefore, in this study we analysed the oxidation index of Korea traditional paper(Hanji) which is used as the restoration paper of the waxed volume in the annals of Joseon Dynasty by using FT-IR. As the analysis of FT-IR, the traditional two-layed stamping paper (Hanji sample F), which was treated by starch in its surface, was shown the most stable state after the accelerated ageing test.

The purpose of this study is to develop an index for evaluating the function of a new motorway using the travel distance frequency distribution (TLFD) calculated using the vehicle travel route big data, and to overcome the limitations of the evaluation through the existing traffic volume. The mobility evaluation index of motorways was developed by applying it to the TLFD data table in 2019. The smaller the value of the mobility evaluation index of the link is calculated, the more it is a link with mainly short-distance travel, and the higher the value of the mobility evaluation index, the more it means a link with mainly long-distance travel. The accessibility evaluation index was calculated through the result of the mobility evaluation index of all motorways developed, and all motorways were grouped into three groups using K-means clustering. Group A was found to exist inside a large city and consisted of motorways with many short-distance traffic, Group B was investigated as acting as an arterial between groups, and Group C was classified as a motorway consisting mainly of long-distance traffic connecting large cities and large cities. This study is significant in developing a new motorway function evaluation index that can overcome the limitations of motorway function evaluation through the existing traffic volume. It is expected that this study can be a reasonable comprehensive indicator in the operation and planning process of motorways.

In this study, we assessed the effect of reduction of tumor volume in the head and neck cancer by using RANDO phantom in Static Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (S-IMRT) and Volumetric-Modulated Arc Therapy (VMAT) planning. RANDO phantom's body and protruding volumes were delineated by using Contour menu of Eclipse™ (Varian Medical System, Inc., Version 15.6, USA) treatment planning system. Inner margins of 2 mm to 10 mm from protruding volumes of the reference were applied to generate the parameters of reduced volume. In addition, target volume and Organ at Risk (OAR) volumes were delineated. S-IMRT plan and VMAT plan were designed in reference. These plans were assigned in the reduced volumes and dose was calculated in reduced volumes using preset Monitor unit (MU). Dose Volume Histogram (DVH) was generated to evaluate treatment planning. Conformity Index (CI) and R² in reference S-IMRT were 0.983 and 0.015, respectively. There was no significant relationship between CI and the reduced volume. Homogeneity Index (HI) and R² were 0.092 and 0.960, respectively. The HI increased when volume reduced. In reference VMAT, CI and R² were 0.992 and 0.259, respectively. There was no relationship between the volume reduction and CI. On the other hand, HI and R² were 0.078 and 0.895, respectively. The value of HI increased when the volume reduced. There was significant difference (p<0.05) between parameters (D_mean and D_max) of normal organs of S-IMRT and VMAT except brain stem. Volume reduction affected the CI, HI and OAR dose. In the future, additional studies are necessary to incorporate the reduction of the volume in the clinical setting.

This research deals with the study of vibrational behavior of armchair and zigzag single-walled carbon nanotubes invoking extended Love shell theory. The effects of different physical and material parameters on the fundamental frequencies are investigated. By using volume fraction for power law index, the fundamental natural frequency spectra for two forms of single-walled carbon nanotubes are calculated. The influence of frequencies against length-to-diameter ratios with varying power law index are investigated in detail for these tubes. To discretize the governing equation in eigen-value form, wave propagation approach is developed. Complex exponential functions have been used and the axial model depends on boundary condition that has been described at the edges of carbon nanotubes to calculate the axial modal dependence. Computer software MATLAB is utilized for the frequencies of single-walled carbon nanotubes and current results shows a good stability with comparison of other studies.

Cross-talk effects in high-density volume holographic interconnections are investigated using perturbative iteration method of the integral form of Maxwell's wave equation. In this method, the paraxial approximation and negligence of backward scattering introduced in conventional coupled mode theory is not assumed. Interaction geometries consisting of non-coplanar light waves and multiple index gratings are studied. Arbitrary light polarization is considered. Systematic analysis of cross-talk effects due to multiple index gratings is performed in increasing level of diffraction orders corresponding to successive iterations. Some numerical examples are given for first and third order diffraction.

본 연구에서는 1998년 7월부터 2001년 6월까지의 KOSPI 200 주가지수선물시장을 대상으로 가격발견기능의 특성에 관한 세 가지 가설을 검증하였다. 먼저 현물시장의 공매제약으로 인한 가격발견기능의 변화 여부를 검증하기 위한 '가격발견기능은 상승장보다 하락장에서 강하게 나타난다. '는 가설은 상승장보다 하락장에서 선도시간이 더 길게 보고되었고 이는 예상대로 현물시장의 공매제약으로 인한 하락장에서의 정보 실현의 난점으로 인하여 하락장에서의 가격발견기능이 더 크게 나타나는 것을 알 수 있었다. 다음으로 주식시장의 빈번하지 않은 거래 효과가 가격발견기능에 미치는 영향을 살펴본 '현물시장의 거래량의 증가로 인하여 가격발견기능은 감소한다' 는 가설은 현물시장이 거래량이 많은 경우보다 적은 경우에 선물시장의 가격발견기능이 크게 나타났다. 현물시장의 거래량이 미약할 때 빈번하지 않은 거래효과로 인하여 주가지수를 구성하는 종목들이 시장에 새로 진입한 정보를 빠르게 소화하지 못하여 현물 시장에 대한 선물시장의 가격발견기능이 더 크게 나타나는 것을 알 수 있다. 마지막으로 차익거래가 가격발견기능에 대한 영향을 간접적으로 살펴보기 위한 '만기일의 가격발견기능은 만기일전과 다르다' 는 가설은 만기일과 만기일전의 가격발견기능에는 특정한 차이가 없음을 밝혀냈다.

The volume perception of water according to cup shape was examined in female college students divided into a normal weight group (<23 body mass index, n=51) and an overweight group (${\geq}$23 body mass index, n=48). The perceived water volume was recorded by participants after they observed the water volume in cups with different shape (highball and tumbler) and with different base height (high base and low base), which contained the same amount of water (150 ml). The normal weight group perceived a water volume of 238.5 ml (highball) and 201.6 ml (tumbler) for the high base cups. The overweight group perceived a volume of 245.6 ml (highball) and 188.8 ml (tumbler). For the low base cups, the normal weight group perceived a water volume of 207.8 ml (highball) and 104.1 ml (tumbler). The overweight group perceived a volume of 202.2 ml (highball) and 100.4 ml (tumbler). Both the normal weight and overweight groups perceived significantly more liquid in the highball cups compared to the tumbler cups. In addition, both groups perceived significantly more liquid in the high base cups compared to the low base cups. However, there were no significant differences in the estimated variance of perceived volume between the normal weight and overweight groups according to the cup shape and cup base height. In conclusion, cup shape and base height potentially affects volume perception. Therefore, modifying cup shape may be used in a weight control program to help control caloric beverage consumption.
