In this study, changes in the quality and headspace O2/CO2 concentrations of cubed radish (Raphanus sativus L.) kimchi (CR-kimchi) packaged using multilayer airtight film (MAF), half-area breathable film (HABF), partial area breathable film (PABF), and one-way degassing valve-mounted film (ODVF) were investigated during storage under altering temperature conditions. The total lactic acid bacteria count in CR-kimchi samples stored for 6 days at 0℃, followed by 8 days at 6oC, increased to 7.8-7.9 log CFU/g, regardless of the packaging. The titratable acidity of the CR-kimchi samples increased to 0.6-0.7% during storage at 0oC for 6 days and then at 6oC for 8 days; it was maintained at 0.6-0.8% for 32 days of storage at 3oC. After 46 days of storage, the reduced sugar content of CR-kimchi packaged using MAF, HABF, PABF, and ODVF decreased to 26.8-30.3 mg/g, indicating no significant (p>0.05) differences. However, during storage, headspace CO2 concentration and film volume were lower in the HABF treatment than in the control, PABF, and ODVF treatments, indicating that HABF packaging combined with supercooled (3oC) storage can extend the optimal ripening period of CR-kimchi without packaging expansion during storage.

미선나무(Abeliophyllum distichum Nakai)는 오직 한반도 일부 지역에 제한적으로 자생하는 특산식물이며, 지구범위 인 IUCN Red List Endangered로 평가·등재되어 있는 이화주성(distyly, 二花柱性) 특성을 가진 희귀식물이다. 본 연구는 미선나무 자생 개체군 8개 지역과 천연기념물 개체군 6개 지역 등 총 14개 지역의 정량조사 결과를 바탕으로 미선나무 이화주성에 따른 개화 특성과 개체군 크기를 비교·분석함으로써 향후 미선나무 개체군에 적합한 현지 내 보전관리방안 정립을 목적으로 수행되었다. 개체군별 출현 개체는 전수조사하였으며, 각 개체의 화기 형태로 장주화·단 주화 개체를 식별해 개화 개체를 현장에서 조사·기록 후 분석하였다. 미선나무 전체 출현 개체 수는 총 13,130개체(개화 7,003개체, 미성숙 6,127개체)로 각 개체군의 장주화·단주화 개화 개체 수 적정 균형 상태가 유의적(P<0.05)이지 않고, 불균형한 상태를 나타냈다. 특히, 영동 개체군은 타 개체군 대비 매우 불균형적 형태를 나타내 타 개체군과 비교했을 때 유전다양성이 낮고, 근친교배 가능성이 클 것으로 추정된다. 관리 단위별 평균 개화·결실률은 각각 자생 개체군 39.0%, 8.5%, 천연기념물 개체군 89.2%, 55.3%로 천연기념물 개체군이 자생 개체군 대비 매우 높게 나타났다. 이는 상층 수관 울폐 차이에 따른 임내 광유입 변화와 관계된 생식 생장 크기 차이로 사료된다. 한반도 내 미선나무 전체 점유면적은 23,224.5㎡이었고, 천연기념물 개체군이 자생 개체군 대비 개체군 점유 면적은 작으나 밀도는 상대적으로 높게 나타났다. 일정 면적에 대한 보호시설 설치로 개체군 확산에 제약이 있는 천연기념물 개체군 내 주기적인 관리가 천연기념물 개체군 밀도를 높인 주된 요인일 것으로 추정된다. 미선나무 보전을 위해서는 현재 인위적·유전적 교란이 의심되는 천연기념물 집단을 해제하고, 새로운 보호구역을 신규로 지정함으로써 보전 우선 개체군의 확대가 필요하다. 천연기념물 개체군의 경우 문화재청과 지자체에서 자생지 관리가 이뤄지고 있으나 자생 개체군의 경우 관리 주체가 전무한 실정으로 미선나무 전반적 관리에 대한 제도적 개선이 우선적으로 이뤄져야 할 것이다.

Intraosseous vascular malformation, a representative vascular disease, rarely occurs in the oral and maxillofacial region, especially the maxilla. An 18-year-old female patient was referred to our department with the chief complaint of a radio-opaque mass in the maxilla. A biopsy was attempted at a local dental hospital before visiting our hospital, but it was not completed due to severe intraoperative bleeding. The patient presented swelling and induration in the right maxillary region without pain, local heat, or fluctuation. According to radiographic and clinical examinations, intraosseous vascular malformation or a bone-forming tumor such as aggressive osteoblastoma was suspected. Therefore, an open biopsy of the lesion was performed under general anesthesia. Histopathological examination revealed that the lesion consisted of bony trabeculae with fibrous connective tissue and numerous vascular structures, and the lesion was diagnosed as intraosseous vascular malformation.

Upo Wetland is the largest riverine wetland in Korea which has been inscribed on the Ramsar List of Wetlands of International Importance in 1998. In this study, sedimentological study was carried out in order to understand the environmental changes in Upo Wetland during the Holocene. The drilling work for recovering the Quaternary sediments was conducted on the inner part (UPW17-01, UPW17-02, and UPW17-03) and the outer part (UPL17-01, UPL17-02) of the Upo Wetland. The recovered sediments are commonly characterized by gravel-dominated deposits in the lower part and silty clay-dominated deposits in the middle to upper parts respectively, which are seemed to be changed from fluvial to palustrine/lacustrine environments around 4,000 cal yr BP. In order to establish the Holocene diatoms distribution from Upo Wetland, we identified 63 diatom taxa. Of these, 14 species were new records for Korea: Gomphonema consector, Gomphonema jadwigiae, Hantzschia abundans, Luticola pseudomurrayi, Luticola spauldingiae, Neidium suboblongum, Ninastrelnikovia gibbosa, Oricymba rhynchocephala, Pinnularia borealis var. lanceolata, Pinnularia latarea, Pinnularia paliobducta, Pinnularia saprophila, Sellaphora laevissima, Stauroneis pseudoschimanskii. All identified diatom species are illustrated by high-quality scanning electron microscopic and light microscopic microphotographs. The ecological habitat for all taxa are presented.

사이드 스트림 방식의 막 모듈을 대상으로 유입 유량을 수직으로 균등하게 분포시킬 수 있는 방안을 CFD로 설계한 결과, 내부 유입 수리구조에 유공 격벽 을 설치함으로써 모듈내로의 유입유량은 표준편차 기준으로 약 40% 정도 감소 됨을 확인하였다. 또한 CFD 결과를 검증하고 사이드 스트림 막 모듈의 편중된 오염의 원인을 조사하기 위해 수행된 입자영상유속 측정 결과로부터 유입구 반대편 유공에서 막 모듈 내부로 들어오는 수체의 유속이 상대적으로 커 수체의 모멘텀이 유입구 측벽에 강한 전단력을 발생하지만 유입구 반대 측벽에서는 사류가 형성됨을 확인하였다.

PURPOSES: The objective of this study is to analyze factors affecting traffic accident severity for determining countermeasures on freeway climbing lanes. METHODS : In this study, an ordered probit model, which is a widely used discrete choice model for categorizing crash severity, was employed. RESULTS: Results suggest that factors affecting traffic accident severity on climbing lanes include speed, drowsy driving, grade of uphill 3%, gender (male offender and male victim), and cloud weather. CONCLUSIONS : Several countermeasures are proposed for improving traffic safety on freeway climbing lanes based on the analysis of crash severity. More extensive analysis with a larger data set and various modeling techniques are required for generalizing the results.

It has been widely accepted that the pressure management of water distribution systems using pressure reducing valves(PRVs) would be an effective method for controlling leakages. A pressure reducing valve (PRV) regulates outlet pressure regardless of fluctuating flow and varying inlet pressure, thereby reducing leakage and mitigating the stress on the water distribution system. However, the operation of a PRV is vulnerable to its mechanical condition and hydraulic operability. In this research, the effect of PRVs installed in water distribution system are evaluated in terms of hydraulic pressure reduction and mechanical performance by analyzing measured pressure data with statistical approach. A statistical approach using the moving average filter and frequency analysis based on fourier transform is presented to detect abnormally operated PRVs that have been densely installed in water distribution system. The result shows that the proposed approach can be a good performance evaluation method by simply measuring pressures for the PRVs.

This study have been conducted to analyze the feasibility of establishing Contamination Warning System(CWS) that is capable of monitoring early natural or intentional water quality accidents, and providing active and quick responses for domestic C_water supply system. In order to evaluate the water quality data set, pH, turbidity and free residual chlorine concentration data were collected and each statistical value(mean, variation, range) was calculated, then the seasonal variability of those were analyzed using the independent t-test. From the results of analyzing the distribution of outliers in the measurement data using a high-pass filter, it could be confirmed that a lot of lower outliers appeared due to data missing. In addition, linear filter model based on autoregressive model(AR(1) and AR(2)) was applied for the state estimation of each water quality data set. From the results of analyzing the variability of the autocorrelation coefficient structure according to the change of window size(6hours~48hours), at least the window size longer than 12hours should be necessary for estimating the state of water quality data satisfactorily.

The main objective of this research is to study feasibility for applying metal membrane to remove particles from air scouring membrane backwash water. Also, the research was conducted to investigate the influence of polyamine coagulation on floc growth in membrane backwash water as pretreatment for removal particles. From the results of experiments for evaluating the influence of polyamine coagulation on floc growth, it was investigated that particles in the rage of 2~50 μm grew up to 30~5,000 μm. In addition, all six metal membranes showed lower removal efficiency, which was 0.87~13.89%, in the case of no polyamine coagulant. On the other hand, in the case of injecting polyamine coagulant, those did extremely high efficiency in 56~92%. From the SEM(Scanning Electron Microscope) images of filtered wiremesh and metal foam membrane, sieve effects were predominant for liquid solid separation in wiremesh and adsorption and diffusion capture effects were predominant in metal foam membrane.

새만금호는 만경강과 동진강에서 유입되는 담수를 통해 영양염을 지속적으로 공급받아 부영양이 가속화되고 있었다. 또한 담수 유입에 따라 구역별로 환경요인들이 차이를 보이고 있었다. 이러한 환경의 차이는 식물플랑크톤 군집의 출현양상의 변화를 가져오고 있었다. 새만금호의 부영양화된 수계에서 식물플랑크톤 군집은 개체수가 증가하고 종 다양성이 감소하고 있었으며, 와편모조류 등의 일부 종이 대발생을 일으키고 있었다. 특히 2009년에는 기존에 크게 출현하지 않았던 Heterocapsa triquetra, Karlodinium veneficum, Heterocapsa rotundata가 우점하여 새만금호 내부의 부영양화에 따른 수환경변화로 식물플랑크톤 군집에 변화가 나타났다. 이와 같이, 새만금호의 서식환경의 변화는 와편모조류의 적조발생 등 식물플랑크톤 군집의 환경 적응력과 연관하여 파악하여야 하며, 이를 위해서는 지속적인 모니터링이 필요하다.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of dietary sericite(SC) on laying performance, feed conversion ratio, egg quality and fecal ammonium nitrogen. Three hundreds and sixty 92-wk-old, Lohman Lite layers were randomly divided into 20 groups of 18 birds each and assigned to five experiment for 4 weeks (72 birds per treatment). Dietary treatments were Control (control diet), SC 0.5 (control diet +0.5% sericite), SC 1.0 (control diet +1.0% sericite), SC 1.5 (control diet +1.5% sericite), and SC 2.0 (control diet +2.0% sericite). Hen-day egg production tended to increase by the SC 1.0%, SC 1.5% and SC 2.0% supplementation in the diets. Egg weight also tended to increase by the SC 1.0% addition in the diets. Feed intake was increased (p<0.05) in SC 1.5 and SC 2.0 but feed conversion was improved (p<0.05) only in SC 1.0 (p<0.05). Digestibility of nutrients were not linearly affected by dietary supplementation of sericite although there was an inconsistent difference. Egg shell strength, albumin height, yolk color, and egg shell thickness were not affected (p<0.05) by treatments. Fecal NH3-N concentration was decreased (p<0.05) by dietary sericite supplementation compared to control. This study showed that dietary 1.0% sericite supplementation can be beneficial to improve egg production, egg weight and feed conversion and to decrease fecal NH3-N concentration.

과적차량은 도로와 교량의 내구성 감소에 가장 큰 위험요소 중 하나여서 지금까지 이런 문제를 제한하기 위해 과적차량에 대한 단속이 실시되어 왔다. 그러나 기존의 시스템은 많은 문제점을 내포하고 있어서 이에 대한 대처방안이 요구되고 있다. 이러한 이유로 본 논문에서는 기존 문제점 해결과 u-ITS의 구축을 위해 무인화, 무선화 기반의 U-중차량 무인과적 단속시스템 구축방안을 제시하며 이를 위해, 시스템 구성방법, USN의 적용, 시스템 제어부와 WCDMA/HSDPA의 설계에 대해 연구하고 WIM 센서의 성능에 대해 검증하였다.
