This experiment was aimed to identify concentrations of mineral nutrients in leaf lettuce (Lactuca sativa) grown on hydroball aquaponics and in the water for growing fish by conducting two experiments. The experiment I (Expt. I) was conducted with 12 fishes (F12) with and without filter, hydroball and plants (H12 (12 fishes, hydroball), FHP12 (12 fishes, filter, hydroball, 6 plants) and HP12 (12 fishes, hydroball, 6 plants)), and the experiment II (Expt. II) was with and without plants (FH15 (15 fishes, filter, hydroball), FHP15 (15 fishes, filter, hydroball, 6 plants)). The pH level in the water of all the treatments was decreased during the growing period, and the pH and EC of the water were lower in all the treatment with plants than those without plants in both Expt. I and Expt. II. When compared with adequate nutrient concentrations for hydroponics, nitrate nitrogen (NO3-N) and phosphorus (P) concentrations in the fish growing water were higher under the FHP15 treatment in Expt. II; however, potassium (K), calcium (Ca), and magnesium (Mg) were only 16, 49, and 82% of hydroponics, representatively, and iron (Fe) was not detected. The fresh weight of lettuce harvested from the FHP15 treatment was 38 g, only a 30% of marketable lettuce yield. The T-N and P contents of the leaf tissue grown under the FHP15 treatment were close to the optimal level; however, the K, Ca, and iron (Fe) contents were less than the optimal with no deficiency symptom.

The hydrogen reduction behavior of the CuO-Co3O4 powder mixture for the synthesis of the homogeneous Cu-15at%Co composite powder has been investigated. The composite powder is prepared by ball milling the oxide powders, followed by a hydrogen reduction process. The reduction behavior of the ball-milled powder mixture is analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and temperature-programmed reduction at different heating rates in an Ar-10%H2 atmosphere. The scanning electron microscopy and XRD results reveal that the hydrogen-reduced powder mixture is composed of fine agglomerates of nanosized Cu and Co particles. The hydrogen reduction kinetics is studied by determining the degree of peak shift as a function of the heating rate. The activation energies for the reduction of the oxide powders estimated from the slopes of the Kissinger plots are 58.1 kJ/mol and 65.8 kJ/mol, depending on the reduction reaction: CuO to Cu and Co3O4 to Co, respectively. The measured temperature and activation energy for the reduction of Co3O4 are explained on the basis of the effect of pre-reduced Cu particles.

본 연구는 오르막 퍼팅 시 좌, 우 경사에 따른 볼의 움직임이 어떻게 변화되는지에 대해 알아보는 것을 목적으로 한다. 본 연구를 위해 한국프로골프협회에서 15년 이상의 골프경기 경험이 있는 피험자들이 참여하였고, 본인들의 퍼터를 이용하여 실제 그린과 유사한 환경에서 퍼팅 동작을 수행하였다. 비디오 카메라를 이용하여 피험자들의 오르막 그린 경사에 따른 퍼팅 동작을 수집 후 동작분석을 실시하였으며, 통계적 유의수준을 a=.05로 설정하였다. 연구결과로 좌, 우 경사별 오르막 퍼팅에서 볼의 위치가 왼쪽에서 오른쪽으로 위치 할 때 볼 움직임의 속도와 각속도가 증가하는 것이 확인되었으며, 여러 경사도 중 성공률을 높여야 하는 오르막 퍼팅에서 경사에 따른 어드레스 볼 위치를 변화할 때, 임팩트 시 클럽 페이스와 볼 움직임이 어떻게 변화하는지를 검증하고, 현장적용 측면에 도움을 주는 과학적 자료를 제시하고자 본 연구를 진행하였다.

본 연구의 목적은 새롭게 개발된 Nurida-ball 공차기 운동기구의 효율성을 검증하기 위해 중년 남성을 대상으로 일회성 운동에 의한 운동 강도 측정과 장기간 운동에 의한 건강 관련 지표들을 확인하는 데 있다. 첫 번째 연구에서는 Nurida-ball의 운동 강도를 측정하기 위해 8명의 중년 남성을 대상으로 30분 간 Nurida-ball 운동을 실시하고 이를 트레드밀 운동부하검사에서(graded treadmill exercise test: GXT) 측정된 최대치와 상대적으로 비교 분석하였다. 두 번째 연구에서는 12명의 중년 남성을 Nurida-ball 운동 그룹(NB, n=6)과 대조군 그룹(CON, n=6)으로 구분하고 NB 그룹은 8주간 운동을 실시하였다 (30min/day, 3 days/week). 이후 운동의 효율성을 검증하기 위해 신체구성, 심폐기능, 혈액 지질 성분 및 근 손상 지표를 확인하였다. 먼저 일회성 Nurida-ball 운동 시 나타난 운동 강도는 GXT-HRpeak (55~85%)과 GXT-VO2peak(23~61%)으로 각각 나타났다. 8주간 장기간 운동을 실시한 연구에서는 CON 그룹과 비교하여 NB 그룹에서 체중, 체지방, 체지방율, 체질량지수의 변화량이(사후-사전) 통계적으로 유의하게 감소한 것으로 나타났다. 또한 NB 집단에서 운동 전과 비교하여 운동 후에 TC와 LDL는 감소되고 BMC는 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. GXT의 최대 환기당량과 수행시간의 변화량이(사후-사전) CON 그룹과 비교하여 NB 그룹에서 유의하게 증가한 것으로 나타났다. 특히 GXT의 운동수행시간은 NB 집단에서만 운동 전과 비교하여 운동 후에 유의하게 증가된 것으로 나타났다. 이를 종합해 보면 Nurida-ball 운동기구는 신체구성과 심폐기능에 긍정적인 영향을 미칠 수 있는 운동 기구로써 중년 남성 들에게 나타나는 대사성 질환들을 완화시킬 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

Tungsten heavy alloys (W–Ni–Fe) play an important role in various industries because of their excellent mechanical properties, such as the excellent hardness of tungsten, low thermal expansion, corrosion resistance of nickel, and ductility of iron. In tungsten heavy alloys, tungsten nanoparticles allow the relatively low-temperature molding of high-melting-point tungsten and can improve densification. In this study, to improve the densification of tungsten heavy alloy, nanoparticles are manufactured by ultrasonic milling of metal oxide. The physical properties of the metal oxide and the solvent viscosity are selected as the main parameters. When the density is low and the Mohs hardness is high, the particle size distribution is relatively high. When the density is high and the Mohs hardness is low, the particle size distribution is relatively low. Additionally, the average particle size tends to decrease with increasing viscosity. Metal oxides prepared by ultrasonic milling in high-viscosity solvent show an average particle size of less than 300 nm based on the dynamic light scattering and scanning electron microscopy analysis. The effects of the physical properties of the metal oxide and the solvent viscosity on the pulverization are analyzed experimentally.

Background: Improvement of the lumbo-pelvic stability can reduce the compensatory action of the erector spinae (ES) during prone hip extension (PHE). Furthermore, the application of abdominal drawing-in (ADI) maneuver increases the action of gluteus maximus (GM) and decreases the action of ES during PHE by improving the lumbo-pelvic stability. However, the post-ADI exercise effects on PHE, not the real-time application of ADI maneuver, has not been studied. Objects: This study is aimed at investigating the post-ADI exercise effects on the muscle activities of GM and ES during PHE. Methods: A total of 24 female adults participated in the study, and they were divided into two groups: Those with normal abdominal muscles (n1=12) and those with weak abdominal muscles (WA) (n2=12). Before the intervention, the subjects’ GM and ES muscle activities during PHE were measured. Subsequently, the two groups were asked to perform the ADI exercise for 10 minutes. After the ADI exercise, the GM and ES activities were equally measured during PHE. Results: The comparison result of the ES muscle activities before intervention shows a significant difference between the two groups (p<.05); the WA group showed higher muscle activities than the normal group. For the within-group comparison, the muscle activities of the ES in the WA group significantly decreased after the ADI exercise (p<.05). For the GM muscle activity, no significant difference was observed in all comparisons (p>.05). For the changes in muscle activities before and after the ADI exercise, a significant difference exists between the two groups only for the changes in ES activities (p<.05); WA group exhibits higher changes than the normal group. By contrast, no significant difference exists between the two groups for the changes in GM activities (p>.05). Conclusion: After the ADI exercise, the compensatory action of ES in the female adults with WC is implied to decrease during PHE.

Heat treatment of metals is an necessary process for obtaining properties required for metals. However, the heat treatment sector is labor intensive enough to be classified as an unwanted sector. In particular, in the case of quenching during the heat treatment, in order to select the defective product due to the collision caused by the collision between the products when the product is dropped in the oil tank during the quenching process, the labor is not concentrated on the heat treatment as the main process, It is a fact that it is put in. In this paper, in order to solve the labor - intensive nature, this paper designed and tested prototype products for the selection of defective products during the heat treatment process of the ball stud. The ball stud inspection device is divided into two parts, a ball stud supply device and an inspection device, and describes the concept design and prototype production contents. The performance of the prototype was evaluated by examining 1000 samples with 5 items. The manufactured ball stud inspection system will contribute to the relaxation of the avoidance phenomenon of the heat treatment industry and contribute to the efficiency and competitiveness of the work.

In this study, the regression equation was suggested to predict of the shot ball velocity according to blade shapes based on discrete element (DE) analysis. First, the flat type blade DE model was used in the analysis, the validity of the DE model was verified by giving that the velocity of the shot ball almost equal to the theoretical one. Next, the DE analyses for curved and combined blade models was accomplished, and their analytical velocities of shot ball were compared with the theoretical one. The velocity of combined blade model was greatest. From this, the regression equation for velocity of shot ball according to the blade shape based on the DE analysis was derived. Additionally, the wind speed measurement experiment was carried out, and the experimental result and analytical one were the same. Ultimately, it was confirmed that the prediction method of the velocity of shot ball based on DE analysis was effective.

Lipomas are the most common benign mesenchymal tumors composed of mature adipocytes. They are usually slow-growing, soft and asymptomatic masses. Angiolipomas are rare benign soft tissue tumors that are distinguished from common lipomas by a marked degree of vascularization. The diagnosis and prognosis of angiolipomas are based entirely on the findings of histological evaluations. Angiolipoma, showing characteristics of both lipoma and hemangioma, usually develop in the trunk and extremities, and rarely arise in the head and neck region. Angiolipoma of the cheek is very rare. This report presents the clinical and histopathological features of infiltrating angiolipoma excised from the cheek.

The hydrogen reduction behavior of MoO3-CuO powder mixture for the synthesis of homogeneous Mo-20 wt% Cu composite powder is investigated. The reduction behavior of ball-milled powder mixture is analyzed by XRD and temperature programmed reduction method at various heating rates in Ar-10% H2 atmosphere. The XRD analysis of the heat-treated powder at 300oC shows Cu, MoO3, and Cu2MoO5 phases. In contrast, the powder mixture heated at 400oC is composed of Cu and MoO2 phases. The hydrogen reduction kinetic is evaluated by the amount of peak shift with heating rates. The activation energies for the reduction, estimated by the slope of the Kissinger plot, are measured as 112.2 kJ/mol and 65.2 kJ/mol, depending on the reduction steps from CuO to Cu and from MoO3 to MoO2, respectively. The measured activation energy for the reduction of MoO3 is explained by the effect of pre-reduced Cu particles. The powder mixture, hydrogen-reduced at 700oC, shows the dispersion of nano-sized Cu agglomerates on the surface of Mo powders.

This study investigated the effect of natural and chemical food additives on the oxidative quality and shelf life of fried-balls used in Udong. Specifically, we evaluated the antioxidant activity of hot water extracts from broccoli added to fried-balls. When treated with antioxidants, fried-balls exhibited lower acid and peroxide values than that of the control group (untreated fried-balls). In addition, the analysis of GC/MS revealed that the contents of unsaturated fatty acids in the fried balls treated with antioxidants were higher than that of the untreated fried-balls, suggesting that the antioxidants slowed the oxidation. Our results showed that broccoli extract was effective in inhibiting oxidation of fried balls used in Udong. Therefore, these antioxidants might be used as food additives to preserve fried balls and consequently extend the shelf-life.

A Nanosized WO3 and CuO powder mixture is prepared using novel high-energy ball milling in a bead mill to obtain a W-Cu nanocomposite powder, and the effect of milling time on the structural characteristics of WO3-CuO powder mixtures is investigated. The results show that the ball-milled WO3-CuO powder mixture reaches at steady state after 10 h milling, characterized by the uniform and narrow particle size distribution with primary crystalline sizes below 50 nm, a specific surface area of 37 m2/g, and powder mean particle size (D50) of 0.57 μm. The WO3-CuO powder mixtures milled for 10 h are heat-treated at different temperatures in H2 atmosphere to produce W-Cu powder. The XRD results shows that both the WO3 and CuO phases can be reduced to W and Cu phases at temperatures over 700oC. The reduced W-Cu nanocomposite powder exhibits excellent sinterability, and the ultrafine W-Cu composite can be obtained by the Cu liquid phase sintering process.

질산성 질소는 수용액에서 상당히 안정하게 존재하기 때문에 제거하는 데에 있어 상당한 기술 이 요구된다. 또한 저 농도의 질산성 질소는 쉽게 제거되는 반면 고농도 질산성 질소는 제거하기가 힘들 다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 직경 3mm 정도의 아연 ball을 이용하여 고농도의 질산성 질소를 기체 질소의 형태로 제거하는 것을 목적으로 하였고, 다양한 반응조건에서 질산성 질소의 제거 특성을 실험하였다. 본 연구의 결과로 아연 ball을 사용하여 연속식 처리를 통한 질산성 질소의 처리효율은 약 80%정도 되었다. 하지만 폐수를 수소이온농도 2 정도의 산성 분위기로 유지시켜야하고 처리된 폐수를 중화 처리하여 방류 시켜야하는 등의 문제점은 상존하고 있다.
