본 논문에서는 마스크 설계에 다양한 위상 최적설계 기법을 적용하고, 광학 근접 보정 성능을 비교한다. 포토리소그래피 공정 중 포토레지스트에 가해지는 빛의 간섭 효과를 보정하는 광학 근접 보정 기술은 반도체 품질을 결정하는 중요한 요소 중 하나이다. 전통 적인 광학 근접 보정 기술에서는 마스크의 일부 요소를 조정하며 보정 효과를 시뮬레이션과 실험으로 확인하면서 설계를 진행한다. 이러한 경험적 설계를 통해 최적의 마스크 형상을 얻는 데는 한계가 있기 때문에, 위상 최적화 기법을 이용한 마스크 설계의 필요성이 증가하고 있으며, 민감도 기반 알고리듬을 이용한 위상 최적설계가 진행되어 왔다. 본 논문에서는 이진 구조 위상 최적설계(TOBS)와 새롭게 고안한 완화된 이진 구조 위상 최적설계(Continuated TOBS)를 이용하여 기존 최적설계와 비교하고, 더 발전된 최적설계 방향 을 제시한다.

본 논문에서는 위상최적설계를 위한 입자-구조 충돌 모델을 제시한다. 위상최적설계를 위해서는 민감도 분석이 선행되어야 하며, 민감도 분석이 가능한 새로운 모델이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 위상최적설계를 위한 민감도 분석을 수행하기 위한 입자-구조 충돌 모 델을 제시한다. 이후 이 모델을 이용하여 위상최적설계를 위한 민감도 분석을 수행한다. 제안한 모델의 정확도를 평가하기 위해 먼저 단순화된 1차원 충돌 문제에 적용한다. 이후, 이 모델을 이용하여 위상 최적화를 통해 입자의 최종 위치를 최적화하여 위상 최적화에 대한 이 모델의 적용 가능성을 확인한다. 이러한 결과는 위상 최적화에서 입자-구조 충돌을 고려하는 것이 가능하다는 것을 보여준다.

Pasture formation and management are crucial to avoid yield reduction. This experiment aimed to examine the effects of tall fescue-centered mixed-seeding combinations on yield and vegetation changes in perennial pastures in the central region for two years, from September 2020 to October 2022. The treatments were arranged in three replications in a randomized block design: control (C), tall fescue-based mixture-1 (T-1), and tall fescue-based mixture-2 (T-2). The tall fescue (TF), orchard grass (OG), perennial ryegrass (PRG), Kentucky bluegrass (KBG), and white clover (WC) were used. The emergency rate of grasses (70.0 to 73.3%) did not differ among mixed seeding combinations. Overwintering rates (81.7 to 83.3%) were similar among treatments. The plant height of grasses was similar at each harvest date, with the highest height (86.2 cm) recorded in the second harvest of the first year, followed by that (58.4 cm) in the third harvest of the first year; it was least (38.9 cm) in the fourth harvest of the second year. There was no significant difference in the dry matter yield of grasses among the mixed seeding combination treatments in the first, third, or fourth harvests of the first year (p>0.05). For second-year grasses, dry matter yield was not significantly different in harvest date among the treatments (p>0.05). Based on mixed seeding ratio, orchard grass showed the highest yield at 70% in the C treatment, followed by tall fescue at 80% and 60% in the T-1 and T-2 treatments, respectively, in the first harvest after seeding. There was no significant difference in feed value between treatments (p>0.05), but a significant difference was observed between the third and fourth harvest (p<0.05). Therefore, it indicated that it is important to create perennial pastures in the central region through mixed seeding combinations centered on tall fescue.

The steel pipe manufacturing industry deals with facilities and materials. Especially thermal facilities are close to vapor cloud explosion (VCE) and may cause secondary damage to facilities because they deal with corrosive substances such as hydrofluoric acid, sulfuric acid and acid, fire, explosion, leakage etc. It is in danger. In this study, hazard identification method was conducted using HAZOP techniques and quantitative risk analysis was conducted using e-CA, a program that supports accident impact analysis. Equipment in the influence range of ERPG - 3 was determined to be a facility requiring replacement. It was decided that neutralization is necessary using slaked lime. Based on the cost of loss, We presented the proper replacement which is the timing of the dangerous facility. As a result, It was ideal to replace the facilities with 20 years of heat treatment facilities, one year of hydrofluoric acid storage tank, 20 years of sulfuric acid storage tank, and 5 years of hydrochloric acid storage tank.

본 연구는 LPS로 유도된 RAW 264.7 세포에서 다양한 약용식품으로 사용되고 있는 올리브 잎과 가지 추출물의 항염증 효과를 확인하였다. 올리브 잎과 가지 추출물은 각각 RAW 264.7 세포에 대하여 세포독성을 나타내지 않았고, LPS 자극에 의한 NO 및 PGE2 생성을 농도 의존적으로 억제했다. 또한, 올리브 추출물은 LPS 자극으로 분비된 TNF-α, IL-1β 및 IL-6의 전염증성 cytokine의 분비량을 억제하였으며, 특히 200 μg/mL 농도에서 올리브 가지 추출물이 잎 추출물 보다 IL-6를 억제하는 것으로 나타났다. 대표적인 염증 관련 신호 전달 경로 인자인 iNOS 및 COX-2의 발현을 검토한 결과 올리브 추출물은 iNOS의 발현을 농도의존적으로 현저히 감소시키는 것으로 관찰되었으나, 각각의 올리브 추출물이 COX-2 발현에는 영향을 미치지 않은 것으로 관찰되었다. 이와 같은 결과는 올리브 각 부위별 추출물은 모두 iNOS 및 NO 조절 경로를 조절하는 것으로 사료되나 iNOS 및 COX-2 단백질 발현은 병립적이지 않을 수 있음을 제시하고 있다. 본 연구 결과로 올리브 추출물이 독성과 부작용이 적은 항염증 효능을 가진 기능성 화장품 소재로써 개발 가능성이 있다고 사료된다.

Hylotelephium erythrostictum is commonly used as a medicinal herb. In this study, H. erythrostictum leaf (HEL), branch (HEB), root (HER), and above ground (HEAG) extracts were evaluated for their antioxidant properties. The antioxidant activities were assayed by three methods based on scavenging of DPPH, ABTS and superoxide anion radical. HEAG extract showed the highest DPPH, ABTS, superoxide anion radical scavenging activities. HEAG extract also exhibited the highest phenolic content (230 mg/g gallic acid equivalent). In our research for anti-inflammatory ingredients, the extract of HEAG inhibited the generation of nitric oxide (NO) in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW264.7 macrophage cells. To test the inhibitory effects of HEAG on pro-inflammatory cytokines, we conducted ELISA assay for the measuring the generation of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, IL (interleukin)-1β, and IL(interleukin)-6 in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 macrophage cells. In these assays, HEAG ethanol extract showed a dose-dependent decrease in the production of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6. Based on these results, extract of HEAG could be the efficient candidate for anti-inflammatory agents.

A new mandarin hybrid cultivar ‘Shinyegam’ was developed from a cross between ‘Kiyomi’ (Citrus unshiu × C. sinensis) and ‘Wilking’ (Citrus reticulata) at the Citrus Research Institute of the National Institute of Horticultural and Herbal Science in 2012. The ‘Jegam na No. 33’, a first selection seedling from the fruits obtained in 2008 was finally named ‘Shinyegam’ after field evaluation trials at five locations in Jeju island, Korea from 2010 to 2012. The tree vigor was intermediate and the tree was spreading in nature, similar to that of the ‘Kiyomi’ cultivar. The fruits produced were compressed to oblate and globose in shape, were a deep orange in color, and moderately weighed at 130 g. ‘Shinyegam’ produces fruit that mature in late December, and has few seeds, which are mono-embryonic. The average seed number of a fruit varied depending on the pollinator citrus tree. Cultivation of ‘Shinyegam’ along with the other cultivars possessing high pollen fertility resulted in seed numbers that was more than 20, while in the absence of a pollinator species the seed number was around 5. The fruit contained soluble solids at 11 to 12 ° Bx and the acidity was approximately 1% at maturity. The rind thickness of approximately 2.5 mm ensures easy peeling. The flesh is very tender and juicy, with a pleasant, aromatic flavor similar to that of ‘Wilking’ but is comparatively weak. ‘Shinyegam’ is moderately resistant to the citrus scab disease and melanose, but susceptible to citrus canker. Owing to the high quality of fruit, good aroma, and cold hardness characteristics, this cultivar is expected to satisfy consumer acceptability in terms of the diversity of the cultivar in open-field cultivation.

Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome (WPW) is a common disorder of the conduction system of the heart. Patients with such disorder may be asymptomatic or present with cardiac symptoms like palpitation and dyspnea. The anesthetic management of these patients is challenging as they are known to develop life threatening tachyarrhythmia. We report a hemodynamic management of a 53-year-old male with WPW syndrome scheduled for laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anesthesia. We performed total intravenous anesthesia with propofol and remifentanil, and we placed the laryngeal mask airway behind the endotracheal tube using Bailey's Maneuver before extubation of endotracheal tube.

Severe maternal morbidity is frequently associated with catastrophic complications of pregnancy such as amniotic fluid embolism (AFE) or sepsis due to chorioamnionitis. The authors report a case of postpartum maternal hypoxic encephalopathy that might be attributed to AFE or sepsis due to chorioamnionitis with Escherichia coli bacteremia, and review the relevant literature. The patient presented with preterm labor, underwent Cesarean section for intrauterine fetal demise, and experienced postpartum cardiopulmonary collapse and disseminated intravascular coagulation, which led to catastrophic postpartum maternal encephalopathy.

This study was designed to analyze the chemical composition of essential oil in ‘Shiranuhi’ immature fruitand to test their biological activities. ‘Shiranuhi’ immature essential oils (SIEO) were obtained by steam distillation fromfruits collected from Jeju Island and were analyzed using gas chromatograph (GC)-flame ionization detectors (FID) andGC-MS. Fourteen components were identified in the essential oil. Limonene (75.21%) and terpineol (8.68%) were the majorcomponents in SIEO. Since acne vulgaris is the combined result of a bacterial infection and the inflammatory response tothat infection, we examined whether SIEO possessed antibacterial against skin pathogens. As a result, SIEO showed excel-lent antibacterial activities against drug-susceptible and -resistant Propionibacterium acnes and Staphylococcus epidermidis,which are acne-causing bacteria. In this study, SIEO was examined on DPPH radical scavenging activities, which showedmoderate antioxidant activity (SC50, 15.36µL/mL). In order to determined whether SIEO can be safely applied to humanskin, the cytotoxicity effects of SIEO were determined by colorimetric MTT assays in normal human fibroblasts and kerati-nocyte HaCaT cells. They exhibited low cytotoxicity at 0.5µL/mL in both celllines. Based on these results, we suggest thepossibility that essential oil of ‘Shiranuhi’ maybe considered as an antibacterial and antioxidant agent.

This study was conducted to determine the effects of the humidity and gas composition on the quality of satsuma mandarins during their heat treatment, in an effort to reduce their acidity. To come up with different humidity and gas conditions, various plastic films were used. The fruits were wrapped with an 18-μm high-density polyethylene (HDPE) punched film, a 30-μm low-density polyethylene (LDPE) film, or a 100-μm LDPE film just before treatment at 30℃ for 55 hours. After heat treatment, the titratible acidity (TA) was significantly reduced while the soluble-solid content (SSC) showed no differences, which resulted in increased SSC/TA ratios in all the treatments. The fruits that were not wrapped with a film, however, which had low RH, developed higher ethanol and acetaldehyde contents than those wrapped with an 18-μm HDPE punched film, which had high RH and a similar gas composition. Among the films, the higher the CO2 concentration in the film was, the more the ethanol and acetaldehyde contents increased, which induced more off-flavor. It was thus concluded that high humidity and normal gas composition are favorable conditions for heat treatment to reduce the acidity of satsuma mandarins.
