Analyzing and diagnosing the causes of abnormal conditions through control logic processes at the plant site is critically important. When a process is halted, the steps for cause analysis and corrective action vary depending on the operator's experience and the specific characteristics of the process. Since it's often not feasible to keep the process stopped for an extended period, issues are sometimes resolved by forcibly restarting the PLC(Programmable Logic Controller). However, this can lead to the recurrence of the same error, which may negatively impact process operations. In particular, oil sands development is an uncharted area with anticipated environmental challenges. In this regard, an integrated system between control systems in the oil sands production plant was established to implement control logic, develop the HMI(Human-Machine Interface), and verify the user interface. This allowed for a better understanding of the equipment's operability.
This study was performed to analyze dietary influences on the regulation of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in postmenopausal women using the 2019-2021 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES). A total of 1,724 women were classified into cardiovascular risk groups based on risk factors and differentiated into high LDLC and normal groups according to the target serum LDL-C levels. The risk group distribution was as follows: Very high-risk group (6%), high-risk group (49.4%), moderate-risk group (42.3%), and low-risk group (2.3%). The high LDL-C group demonstrated abdominal obesity and prediabetes, with their carbohydrate energy intake exceeding the Korean dietary guideline recommendations of 65%. Increased fat (OR 2.67, 95% CI; 1.19-6.02) and cholesterol (OR 2.43, 95% CI; 1.02- 5.77) intake correlated with higher LDL-C risk. The high LDL-C group showed elevated saturated fat and reduced polyunsaturated fat consumption (p for trend <0.001). Thus, to regulate the LDL cholesterol levels in postmenopausal women, they maintain an appropriate weight in addition to managing abdominal obesity and continuously monitoring blood sugar levels. Furthermore, it is important to limit the intake of high saturated fat meats and consume sufficient protein from sources such as beans, fish, and eggs, which contain healthy unsaturated fats.

일반차량과 자율주행차량이 혼재하는 상황에서 발생가능한 미래 재난상황에 대한 관리방안 준비가 필요하다. 특히 재난 상황 중 안 개 발생 시 시야 확보가 어려운 일반차량 운전자와 센서기반 자율주행차량의 주행 특성이 다를 수 있다. 해당 상황에서의 문제점을 도출하고 이를 극복하기 위해 혼합교통류 관리 방안을 제안하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 다양한 재난 상황 중 안개를 연구 대상으로 설정하였다. 과거 기상 상황별 일반차량을 주행 특성을 이력자료로 분석한 후, 안전한 교통흐름을 유지하기 위하여 자율주행차에게 정 보를 제공하는 방안을 제안한다.
도로 위 노면전차 트램를 포함한 다양한 이동수단 흐름을 원활하게 유지하기 위해서는 효율적인 교통 신호 제어가 필요하다. 검증 되지 않은 기술의 현장 평가는 교통안전 측면에서 위험하기에 대부분 가상환경을 통해 적용 기술검증을 선행한다. 본 연구는 다양한 교통신호 제어 알고리즘을 센터 수준에서 적용하는 가상 실험환경 마련을 위한 기능적 요구사항을 정의한다. 기능적 요구사항으로 가 상환경 센터 기반으로 실험을 시작하거나 중지하는 기능, 교통량 등 입력값을 입력하는 기능 등의 기본적 요구사항을 도출하였다. 이 렇게 정의된 기능적 요구사항은 향후 트램 등 다양한 교통수단을 대상으로 하는 가상환경 센터 구축 과정에 효율적으로 참조될 수 있 을 것으로 기대된다.
기존 신호제어기법은 과거 주기에 파악된 교통상황을 바탕으로 다음 주기의 교통신호시간을 설계하는 방식으로 신호시간을 설계하기 위해 관측할 때의 교통상황과 신호시간을 제공받는 교통상황 간의 간극이 존재하였다. 또한, 설정된 주기길이 동안 차량이 교차로에 일정하게 도착하는 균일분포를 가정하지만, 실제 교차로에 도착하는 교통량의 행태는 비 균일분포로 실제 교통수요에 대응하기 어렵 다는 한계가 존재한다. 본 연구는 이러한 한계를 극복하기 위해 교차로로 진입하는 상류 교차로의 교통정보를 활용하여 단기 미래 도 착 교통량 예측모델 개발을 통해 관측 시점과 제공 시점 간의 간극을 최소화한다. 또한, 기존 주기길이 동안의 교통량 도착분포를 비 균일분포로 가정하여 주기길이가 고정되지 않는 방식(Acyclic)의 적응식 신호제어 기법(ATC) 개발한다. 제안된 단기 미래 도착 교통 량 예측모델은 실제 스마트교차로 자료를 가공하여 시뮬레이션을 통하여 학습데이터를 구축하여 장단기 메모리(LSTM) 모형과 시간 분산(TimeDistributed) 모형을 적용하여 딥러닝 모델을 개발하였다. 적응식 교통신호제어 기법은 실시간 예측 교통량을 활용하여 교통 류별 예측 지체 산출을 통하여 지체가 최소화되는 현시 종료 지점에서 현시를 종료하고 다음 시간 단계에서 예측된 교통량을 통해 최 적 현시를 재산출하는 롤링 호라이즌(Rolling Horizon)을 수행한다. 제안 신호제어 기법의 평가를 위해 미시적 교통 시뮬레이션을 활 용하여 기존 신호제어 기법인 TOD 신호제어 기법과 제안기법 간의 평가를 수행하였다.
The alfalfa weevil (Hypera postica) is an important pest that causes significant damages to alfalfa crops, reducing yield and quality, but there’s a solution. This research had two main goals to evaluate the efficacy of insecticides available in Korea for alfalfa weevil control and to provide data for pest management studies. The experiment, conducted from 2023 to 2024 at the National Institute of Animal Science in Cheonan, Republic of Korea, included four treatment plots: control (CON), early-occurrence (EAR), mid-occurrence (MID), and late-occurrence (LAT). It also included two frequency plots with primary and secondary insecticide using 50% fenitrothion emulsion, which made it truly comprehensive study. The primary insecticide was applied at the first observation of the alfalfa weevil larvae, with subsequent secondary applications at specified intervals. The results showed that two-times insecticide applications significantly reduced larvae populations and increased yield and nutrient content compared to a single application. Specifically, control rates ranged from 94 to 94.7% on the third day after treatment and from 72.2 to 93.4% on the seventh day. Plots with two applications had higher yields and crude protein content. The study concluded that the timing and frequency of insecticide applications are critical to maximizing alfalfa yield and quality, emphasizing the importance of optimized application strategies for effective pest control.
This study aims to contribute to resolving the critical issue of weed management in newly established alfalfa fields, study has been conducted on effective herbicide use. The study evaluated the impact of various domestically available foliar herbicides on alfalfa phytotoxicity, weed control, yield, and nutritive value. The experiment was designed in a randomized complete block design with four treatments. Alfalfa ‘SW 5615’ seeded in the spring of 2024 on a 1 ha field (March 18), with herbicide treatments including fluazifop-P-butyl (FPB), bentazone (BEN), and a mixture of these herbicides (MIX). Herbicide efficacy, alfalfa yield, and nutritive value were assessed 30 days post-application. Results indicated that the MIX treatment achieved superior weed control comparable to hand weeding (HW), although it exhibited higher phytotoxicity, requiring extended recovery periods. While MIX led to lower overall yield, it enhanced alfalfa purity, resulting in higher crude protein (CP) content and relative feed value (RFV) compared to other treatments. The study concludes that despite the potential for increased phytotoxicity, mixed herbicide treatments could offer a strategic advantage in enhancing the quality of alfalfa feed through effective weed management, thereby improving CP and RFV, critical factors for the nutritional value of alfalfa. These findings provide valuable insights for optimizing weed management practices in alfalfa cultivation, suggesting that mixed herbicide application, although associated with increased phytotoxicity on the plants, could improve the overall feed quality by reducing weed competition.
In Korea, “group feeding facilities” are public establishments that offer food to large numbers of people, typically consisting of more than 50 individuals at a time. As of March 2024, there were 46,642 such meal facilities in Korea. Among these, 14,177 (30.4%) were kindergartens, 12,155 (26.1%) were schools, and 9,949 (21.3%) were industrial facilities. In February 2021, lung cancer among culinary workers in schools was first recognized as an occupational disease. Since then, the necessity of implementing health management of culinary workers and improving the cooking environment has become a pressing issue. Previous studies have identified various cooking pollutants such as particulate matter, volatile organic compounds, and aldehydes generated during the cooking process. These pollutants have been shown to significantly impact on both indoor and outdoor environments. They are initially produced in cooking spaces, can spread to indoor dining areas by diffusion, and are eventually emitted to the outside air through exhaust outlets. Therefore, this study investigated previous research on the characteristics of pollutants and the environmental impacts of cooking facilities, including facilities providing meals. Additionally, this study analyzed the current status and limitations of policies and pollutant management systems related to these facilities. Finally, to improve the cooking environment and safeguard the health of workers, this study proposed several recommendations. These include guidelines and management system proposals for controlling cooking pollutants.
In this study, two things were analyzed for Korean Standards certification factory review evaluation items. First, it was examined whether there is a difference between the Practice of factory review evaluation items and Post-Management according to the change in perception of the factory review evaluation items of Korean Standards certification personnel. Second, the moderating effect of the Korean Standards certification personnel's perception of the effect of the Practice of the factory review evaluation items of Korean Standards certification personnel on Post-Management was verified. Although there is a statistically significant difference between Practice and Post-Management according to changes in perception of Korean Standards personnel, there is no statistically significant difference in the impact (slope) of Practice on Post-Management according to changes in perception of Korean Standards certification personnel. As the perception of factory review evaluation items increases, the Practice and Post-Management of factory review evaluation items are increasing, but the impact of the Practice of factory review evaluation items on Post-Management does not affect it. In order to further advance Korean Standards certification, which plays an important role in maintaining the quality level of products produced by companies, efforts to raise the level of perception of Korean Standards certification personnel are considered necessary.
운전 시뮬레이션을 통해 3-수준 자율주행 중 차량 전방에 장애물이 출현하는 상황에서 서로 다른 연령대의 운전자 들이 보이는 제어권 전환 반응시간과 상황인식, 그리고 차량통제 수행에서의 차이를 장애물 회피 이전(before the obstacle avoidance: BOA)과 이후(after the obstacle avoidance: AOA) 구간으로 구분하여 분석하였다. 본 연구의 결 과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 실험참가자들의 상황인식은 AOA 구간에 비해 BOA 구간에서, 그리고 청년운전자 집단에 비해 고령운전자 집단에서 더 낮았는데, 이러한 경향은 AOA 구간에 비해 BOA 구간에서 더 뚜렷하였다. 둘째, 제어권 인수 시간은 청년운전자 집단에 비해 고령운전자 집단에서 유의하게 더 느렸다. 셋째, 네 가지 차량통 제 측정치 모두에서 BOA 구간보다는 AOA 구간에서, 그리고 청년운전자 집단보다는 고령운전자 집단에서 더 저하 된 수행이 관찰되었으나 차량통제 수행에서의 연령집단간 차이는 BOA 구간보다는 AOA 구간에서 더 컸다. 이러한 결과는 자율주행 중 제어권을 인수받아 수동으로 운전하여 장애물을 회피하는 상황에서 운전자의 상황인식과 차량 통제는 BOA 구간과 AOA 구간에 따라 달라질 수 있음을 시사한다.
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.
With the growth of silicon-based semiconductor sensors in the global sensor market, advancements in body motion detection for wearable devices and sustainable health monitoring have accelerated. This has led to a significant attention on various sensors with excellent flexibility and stretchability, such as PDMS, in numerous applications. In this study to adjust the sensitivity of conventional conductive pressure sensors, a porous sponge structure was initially created using a sugar template method. The polymer was prepared with four different ratios (5:1, 10:1, 20:1, 30:1) to achieve varying flexibilities. To ensure conductivity, the sponge was coated using a dip-coating method with a 3wt% CNT solution. The conductive sponges with various ratios were tested for sensitivity, demonstrating characteristics suitable for a wide range of pressure sensing applications.
In the present study, the inertial electromagnetic actuator (IEA) and the FxLMS (filtered-x least mean square) method were applied to study vibration control using the active mount. IEA was designed and manufactured for the experiment, and FxLMS algorithm was developed to evaluate control performance and mount dynamic characteristics. For the vibration control experiment, active mounts were installed at the top and bottom, and the lower active mount controls the force transmitted to the structure by the excitation signal from the upper active mount. The experiment was performed by simultaneously exciting three frequencies in three axes. From the experimental results, it was confirmed that the force measured at the lower active mount when the actuator is off is greatly reduced when the actuator is on, and that vibration reduction in the vertical z-axis is more effective than vibration reduction in the x-y plane.
선박을 통해 유입되는 마약의 단속 건수와 사례는 그리 많다고 하진 않을 것 이나, 단 한 번의 운반으로도 상당한 양의 마약이 유통될 수 있어 막대한 사회· 경제적 파급력을 초래할 수 있다. 통상 선박을 통해 유입되는 마약의 단속은 마약을 운반 중이라는 혐의가 있 다는 첩보 아래 당해 선박이 우리나라의 영해에 진입한 경우에 관할권을 행사 함으로써 행해진다. 그러나 선박을 통한 마약 운송이 지능화됨에 따라 이른바 ‘던지기 수법’이라는 해상에서 연안국의 관할권이 닿지 않는 영해 이원의 해상 에 마약류를 띄워놓고 거래자가 수거하는 방식이 발생하고 있으며, 이 같은 방 식은 특히 대한해협과 같이 영해 폭이 좁은 공간에서 사용될 여지가 있다. 이같이 지능화되는 해상 마약 거래를 차단하기 위해선, 국제사회와의 적극적 협력을 통해 외국선박에 대한 임검 등이 효과적으로 시행될 수 있어야 하며, 동시에 선주와 선원 등 선박 관계자의 세심한 주의가 필요하다. 그러나 외국선 박의 단속에 관한 국제법은 특히 단속 절차적 측면에서 특별한 요건을 요구하 고 있다. 따라서 해상 마약 단속에 관한 법률의 검토와 개선이 필요하며, 국내 법의 개선에는 국제법적인 고려가 선행되어야 한다. 미국의 경우 국제법을 고려함과 동시에 다소 도발적으로, 혹은 선진적으로 보이는 방법으로 국내법을 정비하여 마약 단속을 위해 노력 중이다. 이에 이 논문은 현행 마약 단속에 관한 국제법의 검토와 함께, 미국의 실행 에서 시사점을 도출하여 국내법적 개선 방안을 제시하고자 하였다. 연구 결과, 국제법상 국가의 관할권(보호주의적 관할권)을 적극적으로 활용 하고, 마약 혐의를 받는 선주와 선박이 취해야 할 행동을 강제화하고, 추가로 외교적 노력을 통해 적극적인 마약 단속을 수행할 방안을 제시하였다.
The purpose of this review is to provide a comprehensive analysis of the intricate relationships between cognitive control, depression, and emotion regulation. Cognitive control, encompassing processes such as attentional control, inhibitory control, and cognitive flexibility, plays a central role in regulating thoughts, behaviors, and emotions in alignment with internal goals and external demands. Depression, characterized by persistent feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and cognitive impairments, is associated with deficits in cognitive control processes. Emotion regulation strategies, such as cognitive reappraisal and expressive suppression, enable individuals to modulate emotional experiences and responses. The bidirectional relationships between cognitive control, depression, and emotion regulation underscore the complexity of cognitive and emotional processes in depression. Understanding these relationships is crucial for developing targeted interventions aimed at promoting cognitive and emotional well-being and preventing depression onset and recurrence. Moreover, recognizing the roles of cognitive control and emotion regulation in depression holds promise for informing clinical practice and enhancing therapeutic interventions. This review highlights the importance of considering cognitive control and emotion regulation in the assessment and treatment of depression and provides insights for future research and clinical practice.
This paper aims to study the modeling and controller of an electrically driven tractor optimized for energy efficiency under off-road conditions and when subjected to loads such as plowing. The dynamic model design is aimed at a 30kW electric tractor. The vehicle model consists of a 30kW motor, transmission, wheels, and a controller, designed using the commercial software Matlab/Simulink. In order to optimize energy efficiency under load conditions, this paper designs and implements a PID controller focusing on the vehicle's speed and wheel slip. The newly proposed electric tractor modeling and PID controller aim to demonstrate improved energy efficiency through simulation.
This paper aims to review the odor removal performance and operating parameters of pilot and full-scale chemical scrubbers, bioscrubbers, biofilters, and biotrickling filters for odor control in wastewater treatment plants. Based on the performance of full-scale facilities installed in wastewater treatment plants, empty-bed residence times were the shortest for bioscrubbers (7.5±2.5s), followed by chemical scrubbers (20±8.1s), biotrickling filters (22.2±26.2s), and biofilters (48±30s). The removal efficiencies of complex odors by biofilters, biotrickling filters, bioscrubbers, and chemical scrubbers were 97.7±1.9%, 87.7±15.6%, 89.0±9.0%, and 70.0%, respectively. The investment cost was the lowest for biofilters, followed by biotrickling filters, bioscrubbers, and chemical scrubbers. In addition, the operating costs of these deodorization technologies were in the following order: biofilters < bioscrubbers and biotrickling filters < chemical scrubbers. However, most studies on odor control for wastewater treatment processes have been conducted on a laboratory scale with model odors (single odorous compound or mixtures of 2-3 odorous compounds). Therefore, field research to develop deodorization technologies for wastewater treatment plants should be more actively conducted to accumulate data for the design and operation of full-scale deodorizing systems.
