본 연구는 육묘기간과 PFAL 내 CO2 농도에 따른 참당귀의 지상부 및 지하부 생육, 광합성 색소 변화, 육묘기간을 평가하 는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 참당귀 종자는 72구 트레이에 파종 하였고 파종 후 40, 50, 및 60일차에 참당귀 묘의 형태학적 특 징과 엽록소 함량을 조사하였다. PFAL 내 온도는 22/19℃ (주간/야간)으로 유지되었고 광주기는 12시간이었다. CO2 농 도는 ambient (475 ± 40μmol∙mol-1), ‘high concentration’ (‘HC’, 758 ± 29μmol∙mol-1), 그리고 ‘very high concentration’ (‘VHC’, 1,197 ± 37μmol∙mol-1) 세 가지 수준으로 설정되었 다. CO2 공급은 자엽이 완전히 전개되고 본엽이 관측되는 파 종 후 20일차에 시작되었다. 파종 후 50일차부터 관부직경, 엽 면적, 뿌리발달, 그리고 건물중이 ambient에 비해 HC와 VHC 에서 높았으며 이는 생육속도가 빨랐음을 의미한다. 하지만 HC와 VHC 간에 건물중은 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없었 다. 형태학적 관점에서 VHC는 파종 후 60일차에 엽병장이 길 고 엽면적이 넓어져 수평적 캐노피 확장이 이루어졌으며, 생 리적으로는 총 엽록소 함량이 감소하였다. 또한 ambient에 비 해 엽면적 지수가 높고 잎의 두께를 나타내는 지표인 비엽중 이 감소하였다. 이는 생장속도가 빨라져 협소한 플러그 트레 이 환경 내에서 개체 간 경쟁이 이루어진 결과로 판단된다. 따 라서 참당귀의 육묘기간을 단축시키기 위한 적정 CO2 농도는 약 800μmol∙mol-1로 판단되며, 적정 육묘기간은 50일로 사료 된다.

Reinforced concrete (RC) columns exhibit cyclic damage, such as strength degradation, under cyclic lateral loading, such as earthquakes. Considering the cyclic damage, the nonlinear load-deformation response of RC columns can be simulated using a lumped plasticity model. Based on an experimental database, this study calibrates lumped plasticity model parameters for 371 rectangular and 290 circular RC columns. The model parameters for adequate flexural rigidity, plastic rotation capacity, post-capping rotation capacity, moment strength, and cyclic strength degradation parameter are adjusted to match each experimentally observed load-deformation response. We have developed predictive equations that accurately relate the model parameters to the design characteristics of RC columns through regression analyses, providing a reliable tool for engineers and researchers. To demonstrate their application, the proposed and existing models numerically simulate the earthquake response of a bridge pier in a metropolitan railway bridge. The pier is subjected to several ground motions, increasing intensity until collapse occurs. The proposed lumped plasticity model showed about 41% less vulnerable to collapse.

Cool-season grasses are currently widely used in South Korea, but their productivity and quality may decline due to global warming associated with climate change. Warm-season grasses have shown greater adaptability to heat stress and drought conditions, making them potential alternatives for summer pasture establishment in central and southern Korea. This study aimed to compare the growth characteristics, productivity, and forage value of warm-season grasses bermudagrass and crabgrass for pasture establishment in the central region of South Korea. The experiment was conducted from May 2023 to October 2024 at the National Institute of Animal Science, Cheonan, South Korea. Crabgrass exhibited superior initial establishment and faster growth rates, whereas bermudagrass had poor initial growth, placing it at a competitive disadvantage against weeds. However, after the first cutting, bermudagrass successfully established itself and maintained a stable botanical composition. The annual dry matter productivity of crabgrass (8,586 kg/ha in 2023 and 12,013 kg/ha in 2024) was 32.62% and 40.18% higher, respectively, than that of bermudagrass (5,785 kg/ha in 2023 and 8,570 kg/ha in 2024). In forage value, crabgrass tended to show higher feed value at the initial harvest, while bermudagrass showed higher quality at the later harvests. In conclusion, these results suggest that both crabgrass and bermudagrass have potential for pasture establishment, with carbgrass being more suitable for short-term due to its rapid growth and high productivity, and bermudagrass being more appropriate for long-term due to its stable productivity in regions where overwintering in possible.

Component-specific information is crucial for identifying sources of PM2.5 in indoor environments. However, profiles of PM2.5 at various locations, including subway tunnels are limited. This study aimed to evaluate the relationships between PM2.5 and its component across tunnels, platforms, and outdoor environments at underground subway stations in Incheon. The study was conducted at six underground subway stations in Incheon. PM2.5 concentrations were measured twice at each station, simultaneously covering the tunnel, platform, and outdoor areas. Carbon (two types), ion (eight types), and metal components (20 types) were analyzed using each analytical instruments. The mean PM2.5 concentration in the tunnel was 33.0±15.7 μg/ m3, significantly higher than the concentrations observed on the platform (12.9±4.6 μg/m3) and outdoors (13.1±7.6 μg/m3). The proportion of total metal concentrations in PM2.5 was highest in the tunnel (57.8%), followed by the platform (22.2%) and outdoor areas (11.3%). Significant correlations between the platform and tunnel were observed for organic carbon, SO4 2–, NO3 –, NH4 +, Ba, Mn, Fe, and Se. Significant correlations between the platform and outdoor were observed for SO4 2–, NO3 –, NH4 +, and Ti, while the tunnel and outdoor showed correlations for SO4 2– and NH4 +. PM2.5 concentrations and total metal concentrations were highest in the tunnel. While PM2.5 concentrations on the platform and outdoors were similar, total metal concentrations were higher on the platform than outdoors. From the platform’s perspective, the concentrations of Ba, Mn, Fe, and Se were only associated with the tunnel, while SO4 2–, NO3 –, and NH4 + had tendency of correlations between both the tunnel and outdoors. The findings suggest that for platform PM2.5 concentrations, Ba, Mn, Fe, and Se may serve as indicators of tunnel-originating PM2.5, while SO4 2–, NO3 –, and NH4 + may serve as indicators for outdoor sources.

본 연구는 아메리카동애등에(Hermetia illucens)의 대량 사육을 위하여 남은음식물 사료의 최적 수분 함량과 적정 사육 밀도를 조사하였다. 실 험에서는 500 g의 습식 사료의 수분 함량을 각각 30%, 50%, 70%, 90%로 조정한 후, 3,500마리의 3령 유충을 7일 동안 사육하였다. 그 결과, 90% 수분 함량에서 평균 유충 무게는 7.19 g으로 측정되었고, 70% 수분 함량에서 가장 높은 무게인 10.54 g이 나타났다. 반면, 50%와 30% 수분 함량에 서는 유충 생육이 저조한 결과가 나타났다. 적절 사육 밀도를 조사를 위해 100,000, 150,000, 200,000, 250,000 마리의 3령 유충을 70% 수분함량 의 100 kg 습식 사료에 7일 동안 처리하였다. 그 결과, 250,000 마리에서 총 유충 생산량이 22.79 kg으로 가장 높게 나타났으나, 150,000, 200,000, 250,000 마리 밀도 간에는 유의미한 차이가 없었다. 100마리당 평균 무게는 100,000 마리에서 16.90 g, 150,000 마리에서 15.20 g, 200,000 마리 에서 11.30 g, 250,000 마리에서 9.50 g으로 확인되었으며, 100,000 마리와 150,000 마리 밀도 간에는 유의미한 차이가 없었다. 결론적으로, 남은 음식물 사료인 습식사료 100 kg를 급여할 경우 수분 함량을 70%로 유지하고 사육 밀도를 15만 마리로 설정하는 것이 가장 효과적임을 확인하였다.

High-rise buildings are equipped with TMD (Tuned Mass Damper), a vibration control device that ensure the stability and usability of the building. In this study, the seismic response control performance was evaluated by selecting the design variables of the TMD based on the installation location of the twisted irregular building. To this end, we selected analysis models of 60, 80, and 100 floors with a twist angle of 1 degree per floor, and performed time history analysis by applying historical seismic loads and resonant harmonic loads. The total mass ratio of TMDs was set to 1.0%, and the distributed installation locations of TMDs were selected through mode analysis. The analysis results showed that the top-floor displacement responses of all analysis models increased, but the maximum story drift ratio decreased. In order to secure the seismic response control performance by distributed installation of TMDs in twisted irregular buildings, it is judged that the mass ratio distribution of TMDs will act as a key variable.

선박은 운항 중 다른 선박과 조우하며, 정해진 규정에 따라 대응해야 한다. 그러나 이러한 기준은 큰 원칙만 있을 뿐 구체적인 수치는 제시하지 않고 있다. 그러므로 큰 원칙에 따라 선박운항자의 판단에 따라 선박은 대응한다. 선박운항자는 자신이 승선한 선박의 상황에 맞춰 대응하기 때문에 일반 상선운항자와 소형선박운항자의 이격거리에 대한 인식은 다를 수가 있다. 본 연구는 일반 상선운항자 와 소형선박 운항자의 횡단 관계 시 이격거리에 대한 인식차이를 분석하고자 했다. 이를 위해 해상교통조사를 수행하고 선박운항자 대상 설문조사를 수행했다. 해상교통조사 결과, 가덕수도를 통항하는 선박은 선수방향에 약 300m의 이격거리를 통항하고 있었으며, 설문조사 결과 소형선박운항자의 안전거리가 일반 상선운항자의 위험거리보다 짧은 것으로 나타났다. 이를 통해 선박크기별로 적정 이격거리는 차이가 있어야 하며, 선박 길이와 관계없이 타선박과 일정한 이격거리가 필요함을 확인했다.

This study quantitatively analyzes risks of industrial incidents to fisher on overseas tuna purse seiners and long liners. A Bayesian network is employed to analyze 478 cases of industrial incidents, comprising 401 cases from purse seiners and 77 cases from long liners, reported from 2019 to 2022. The highest risk of industrial incidents on purse seiners is attributed to diseases. Excluding diseases, risks are the highest during fishing: 5.31 times higher during catch handling, 2.05 times higher during maintenance, and 2.38 times higher during loading and unloading. The risk of industrial incidents caused by the hull is 9.50 times higher than those caused by fishing gear, 4.59 times higher than those caused by machinery, and 3.61 times higher than those caused by the caught fish. Among the types of industrial incidents, slips are the highest: 2.58 times higher than industrial incidents caused by being bump, 3.74 times higher than those caused by hit, and 3.94 times higher than those caused by imbalance and overexertion. For long liners, most industrial incidents are concentrated in diseases, with dental, musculoskeletal, skin, and respiratory diseases being the primary types of industrial incidents identified. This study aims to propose reduction measures for reducing the high-risk form of industrial incidents, specifically slips, and to present health management strategies for preventing diseases among fisher on overseas tuna fishing vessels. By addressing these aspects, this study seeks to contribute to the safety and sustainability of the overseas tuna fishing industry.

In response to the global interest and efforts towards reducing plastic use and promoting resource recycling, there is a growing need to establish methods for recycling discarded fishing gear. In Korea, various technologies are being developed to recycle discarded fishing gear, but significant technical and policy challenges still remain. In particular, biodegradable gill nets require a pre-treatment process to separate biodegradable materials from other substances and to remove salt before recycling. Therefore, this study aims to develop a pre-treatment device for recycling biodegradable gill nets and to evaluate the feasibility of recycling them.

This study investigated the impact of hydrolyzed plant proteins on the physical, thermal, and rheological properties of rice flour (RF) for protein fortification for the elderly and general food systems. Faba bean protein concentrate and chickpea flour were first treated with polysaccharide hydrolyzed enzymes (control; CTFP and CTCF, respectively) and subsequentially with protease hydrolyzed enzymes (hydrolyzed protein material; HZFP and HZCF, respectively). The addition of CTFP and HZFP enhanced the swelling power of RF, whereas the CTCF and HZCF exhibited the opposite trends. Adding all controls and hydrolyzed protein materials to RF increased the solubility and gelatinization temperature and decreased the gelatinization enthalpy. The HZFP addition successfully developed the pasting viscosity of RF, whereas the others did not. The RF-HZFP mixture had a higher peak viscosity than RF but lower trough, breakdown, final, and setback viscosities. These findings suggest that the controls and hydrolyzed protein materials studied here could be used as sources for protein fortification of foods, particularly for the elderly, with minimal changes in textural and rheological characteristics, thereby contributing to the development of nutritious and palatable food products.

Buckwheat leaves have the best antioxidant properties, including flavonoids, rutin, and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) scavenging ability compared to common buckwheat and tartary buckwheat. The total dietary fiber content of the powder extracted by mixing buckwheat leaves and sea tangle was 30.5%. To manufacture bread containing mixed buckwheat flour, 10, 20, and 30% buckwheat flour was mixed in to produce buckwheat bread. The bread’s characteristics underwent significant changes with varying levels of buckwheat flour. As the buckwheat content increased, the size of the bread decreased, but its hardness, gumminess, and chewiness tended to increase. The sensory characteristics of the bread were not improved due to the addition of gluten in the case of bread mixed with 20% buckwheat flour. When the buckwheat flour content was mixed at 20%, and the mixed extract of buckwheat leaves and sea tangle were added at 0.4% and 1.0%, there was no significant difference in the appearance of the buckwheat bread. Still, regarding sensory properties, the preference was higher in the sample with 1.0% added buckwheat flour.
