The study on the airflow based on the array of ventilator and plan of the underground parking lot in apartment As demands of the residents have been variously changing according to the construction of the apartment house and the fast economic growth, the construction companies spurs the development of the apartment house flavored with environmental friendly factors. Also because of the multiple apartment project, the basement car park alone can not handle the rapid growth of the vehicles and the resident puts more and more emphasis on securing car park space for the freedom from the vehicles on the ground and for the safety of their children. Recently, as the interest about natural energy, the tendency minimizing the mechanical energy also appears. According to this trend, there has been growing attempts in order to apply the environmental friendly technologies to the apartment house. But the reality is that the systems doesn't virtually function well because the existing mechanical systems are applied. Consequently, the deterioration of the air and the brightness in the basement car park exacerbates the environments of the basement car park. And the study on the feasibility of the natural ventilation according to the unit-plan type of the basement car park and the performance of the skylight, is still insignificant. Thus, in this study, we intend to simulate, through the CFD, the air current by natural driving power by classifying the existing basement car parks into the unit-plan type and the direction of the vehicle traffic. Through classifying the existing basement car parks by the type of vehicle traffic that is the type of arrangement such as one-way or bidirectional traffic and deploying the ventilating openings by 3 types which enables the skylights, linked the ground for the purpose of collecting the light, play the role of ventilation at the same time, we forecast the air current of the basement car park by using CFD(Computational Fluids Dynamics) and, based on that, suggest the plan to improve the ventilating function of the basement car park by utilizing the natural ventilation. In this study, we research the general theories, that is 'the ventilation theory of underground space and the test method of ventilating performance' and interpret, through CFD, the air current of the target models according to the layout of the ventilation openings based on mean of air age and air exchange effectiveness by using computer simulation. As a result, we draw the conclusion as follows: (1) In respect of the air age according to the type of the vehicle traffic such as one way traffic and bidirectional traffic, the bidirectional traffic shows 30,405 seconds while 14,070 seconds in one way traffic indicating that the one way traffic abates by more than 50%. Therefore, the air of the basement car park with one way traffic has superior air quality because of its' shorter air age. (2) In case of the existing basement car parks, Case A' air exchange rate is 4.44 while 7.76 times/h in Case B and 1.94 times/h in Case C. It appears comparatively small in Case C. We can draw the conclusion, through this finding, that the placement of several natural ventilators in the middle and on the edge is more effective than the placement of the natural ventilator with big area in the middle when placing natural ventilator. (3) In case of Case B where the installation is in the middle and on the edge of the basement car park, it appears excellent in both the air exchange and the air age, but the effective area of the space on the ground abates. There requires a plan for the placement accordingly. (4) In case of Case C where the circular air-vent with the smallest area of air-vent is installed, the velocity of air current appears the fastest. Thus, it seems that there requires the research on the appropriate size and the layout plan of the circular air-vents for the purpose of the increase of effective space on the ground. It is also necessary to comprehend the appropriate locations in order to improve the performance of the natural ventilation, through examining the characteristic of the air current according to the type of ventilating openings installed in the basement car park, the velocity of the current, the pressure distribution and the installation of the auxiliary equipments for the natural ventilation.

박인원 忠南大學校 新藥專門大學院 2016 국내박사

Mutations in PARK2 are considered a common cause of Parkinson’s disease (PD). To assess the frequency of PARK2 mutations in the Korean population, we screened the PARK2 gene in 83 Korean PD patients: two young onset (YO, ≤49), 32 middle onset (MO, 50-69) and 49 late onset (LO, 70). Detection of the point mutations was performed by direct sequencing of the PARK2 exons, and exonic rearrangements were analyzed using multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA). Five known PARK2 variants were identified in 53 (63.9%) of the Korean PD patients: two missense mutations (Y267H and M458L) and three polymorphisms (S167N, L272I and V380L). We also found an increased frequency of PARK2 variants in PD patients and a lowered PD age at onset (AAO) in those having two variants, suggesting that the genetic variation in PARK2 gene might be a genetic risk factor of PD in Korean population.

How does the national park management deliver their services? The perspective of service marketing focused on gunung gede pangrango national park, Indonesia

Maulana, Firman 서울시립대학교 국제도시과학대학원 2018 국내석사

인도네시아에 설립된 가장 오래된 국립공원 중 하나인 구눙 게대 빵랑오 국립공원(GGPNP)은 관광 개발의 기초로 생태관광을 선택했다. 생태관광과 관련된 모든 혜택에 관계 없이 미래에 최적의 이익을 얻으려면 여전히 해결해야 할 과제가 있다. 정부기관으로서 GGPNP는 방문객에게 서비스를 제공하는 관광 활동을 지원하는 단순한 관리 이상의 또 다른 역할을 한다. 최근의 사실은 국립공원에 방문하는 관광객 수가 여전히 적다는 것을 보여주며 그 이유 중 하나는 국립공원에서 마케팅에 대한 관심이 낮기 때문이다. 국립공원은 또한 성과 중 하나인 방문 관광객 수에 대한 목표를 달성해야 하지만 GGPNP의 경영진은 서비스 마케팅을 시행하여 국립공원을 홍보하는 방법에 주목하기 시작해야 한다. 이러한 이유로 본 연구는 서비스 마케팅 관점에서 GGPNP가 서비스를 제공하는 방법을 조사하기 위해 실시되었다. 또한 이 논문은 생태관광 원리를 강조하는 경영진 측면과 인지된 서비스 성과 차원을 강조하는 방문객 관점에서 서비스 마케팅의 3가지 요소(인력, 물리적 증거, 프로세스 관리)를 탐구한다. 조사 결과에 따르면 GGPNP의 서비스 마케팅 구현은 전반적으로 중간 수준이다. 이는 GGPNP가 이미 표준 서비스 마케팅을 수행하지만 마케팅 가치를 높이기 위해 해결하고 개선해야 할 몇 가지 사항이 있다는 것을 의미한다. 인적 요소의 경우 GGPNP는 방문객에게 더 나은 서비스를 제공하기 위해 더 많은 인력을 충원하고 더 많은 교육을 제공해야 한다. 물리적 증거 요소의 경우 방문객은 GGPNP가 국립공원 지역에 머무는 동안 방문객에게 더 많은 지식과 편의를 제공하기 위해 국립공원 지역에 정보 표지판과 위생 시설을 개선하거나 추가해야 한다고 생각한다. 마지막으로, 프로세스 관리 요소에서 GGPNP는 더 많은 절차를 추가하고 고객 평가, 방문 우선순위 시민에 대한 대우(노인, 임산부, 장애인, 어린이), 방문객에게 피드백을 제공하는 방식에 대해 구체적인 사항을 추가해야 한다. GGPNP의 경영진에게 이 결과가 의미하는 바는 특히 인도네시아에서 국립공원의 서비스 마케팅에 대해 논의하는 이전 연구가 없었기 때문에 공식적인 계획 전략을 위한 마케팅 참조자료와 디딤돌을 제공하는 것이다. 또한 훌륭한 서비스 마케팅을 시행함으로써 장기적으로 국립공원을 방문하여 보존 메시지를 받고 환경에 대한 소속감을 높일 수 있는 사람들이 더 많아질 것이다. Gunung Gede Pangrango National Park (GGPNP) one of the oldest national parks established in Indonesia has chosen ecotourism as the basis of their strategy in developing tourism. Regardless of all of the benefits that come with ecotourism, there are challenges that are still need to be addressed to gain optimum benefit in the future. As a government agency, GGPNP has another role than just mere conservation which is supporting tourism activities which mainly about delivering a service to its visitors. The recent data shows that the number of tourist arrival to the national park is still low, and one of the reasons is the low interest of marketing for a national park. While the national park also needs to achieve the target for tourist arrival as one of their performance, the management of GGPNP needs to start their attention on how to market the national park through the implementation of service marketing. Due to these reasons, this research was conducted to examine how the GGPNP delivers their services from the perspective of services marketing. In particularly, this thesis explores the three elements of services marketing (personnel, physical evidence, and process management) from the perspective of management which emphasizes ecotourism principles and the perspective of visitor which emphasizes on perceived service performance dimension. The results of this survey show that as overall the implementation of service marketing in GGPNP is at a moderate level. This means that GGPNP already perform standard service marketing but there are several things that need to be addressed and improved to increase their marketing value. From the personnel element, the GGPNP need to consider adding more personnel and provide them with more training in order to deliver better services to the visitor. For the physical evidence element, the result also shows that the visitor thinks that GGPNP needs to improve or add more information signage and sanitary facilities in the national park area to give more knowledge and comfortability toward visitor during their stay in the area of national park. Lastly, from the process management element shown that GGPNP need to add more procedure and put more specific details on customer evaluation, treatment for priority citizen (elderly, pregnant woman, disabled person, and children) that come to visit, and how they provide their feedback to the visitor. This research is expected to serve as a stepping stone and reference on marketing and planning strategies of GGPNP since there was no previous research that discusses service marketing in the national park especially in Indonesia. Furthermore, by implementing good services marketing it is expected that for long-term outcome there will be more people to visit a national park to receive the message of conservation and hence increase their sense of belonging toward the environment.

Spatio-Temporal Patterns of Human-wildlife Conflict in Bardia National Park, Nepal

PAUDEL, Prabin University of Seoul, International School of Urban 2021 국내석사

지구 생태계의 균형을 이루기 위해서는 야생 생물 보존이 필수적이다. 하지만 야생 동물이 인간에게 피해를 입히면 인간은 그에 대한 복수로 야생 동물을 살상한다. 따라서 생태계 및 인간이 영위하는 생활의 지속 가능성을 위해서는 충돌을 최소화해야 한다. 인간과 야생 동물의 충돌은 바르디아 국립 공원(Bardia National Park)의 주요한 해결 과제이다. 효과적인 충돌 관리를 위해서는 구체적인 시공간 정보가 필수적이다. 그렇기 때문에, 본 연구에서는 바르디아 국립 공원의 완충 지대에서 11년(2010~2020) 동안 발생하여 기록된 충돌의 시공간적 분포를 조사하였다. 데이터 분석에는 기술 및 추론 통계를 사용하였다. 분석 결과에 따르면 기록된 충돌 횟수가 매년 증가하고 있다. 평균적으로 연간 806 건의 충돌이 기록되었다. 이 보호 구역에서 발생한 충돌의 주요 대상 종은 코끼리와 표범인데, 충돌의 59%가 남부 지역에서 기록되었다. 인간과 코끼리의 충돌 중 60% 이상이 8월, 9월, 10월 및 11월에 발생했다. 충돌이 가장 빈번한 계절은 종마다 다르지만, 코끼리, 표범, 호랑이 및 멧돼지의 경우 충돌의 계절적 분포가 유의미하다. 조사 대상 기간 동안의 손실 평가액 중 37%만이 보조금 형태로 지급되었다. 보조금을 받기까지의 과정도 길다. 따라서 지역을 바탕으로 주요 충돌 종을 관리하기 위한 월간 일정이 필수적이다. 초식 동물의 입맛에 덜 맞는 대체 작물을 재배하고 육식 동물의 침입을 막을 수 있는 축사를 장려하는 것이 필요하다. 전기 울타리를 설치하고 유지하며 대체 생계 수단을 제공함으로써 사람들의 삼림 출입을 줄이는 것 또한 중요하다. 이에 더해, 지역 사회를 대상으로 야생 동물의 행동에 대한 지식을 제공하고 교육을 실시하는 또한 바르디아 국립 공원 내에서의 충돌 사고를 축소하는 데 도움이 될 것이다. 주요어: 인간과 야생 동물의 충돌, 시공간 분포, 바르디아 국립 공권, 완충 지대 Human-wildlife conflict is one of the major conservation challenges. Detail spatial and temporal information is essential for effective conflict management. Therefore, this study examines the distribution of conflicts based on space and time for eleven years (2010 to 2020) in the buffer zone of Bardia National Park. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze the data. The result shows that the number of human-wildlife conflicts is increasing annually. Where on average, 806 conflicts per year were recorded. Elephant and leopard are the major conflicting species in this protected area, and 59 % of the conflict was recorded in the southern regions. More than sixty percent of human-elephant conflicts are recorded in August, September, October, and November. Major conflicting seasons vary with the species, where the distribution of conflict is significantly varied with the seasons for elephant, leopard, tiger, and wild boar. Attack due to carnivore is significantly higher in the new moon phase periods. Only 37 % of the evaluated loss was paid to the victim as a relief. A monthly calendar for the management of major conflicting species is essential. Farming of alternative crops that are less palatable for the herbivores and promoting predator-proof livestock shelter is needed. Where construction and maintenance of electric fences and reduction of dependency over forest resources by providing alternative sources of livelihood are crucial. Furthermore, providing knowledge and training about wildlife behavior to the local community will reduce the conflict and increase the harmony between people and wildlife.

First-Principles Characterization of Transition Metals on Oxide Films

Park, Jinwoo University of Seoul 2010 해외박사

Oxide-supported metal clusters and thin films have attracted a great deal of interest due to their importance in a wide range of technological applications, such as heterogeneous catalysis, gas sensors, corrosion-protective coatings, photovoltaic devices, and microelectronics. The adsorption, growth, and electronic characteristics of metal atoms adsorbed on oxides are of special interest, because these factors are supposed to help design and optimize methods for controlling processes concerning the desired chemical reaction and product. In this thesis, we performed ab initio electronic structure calculations to study the interactions of metal adatoms with ionic oxide atoms involving regular oxide surface atoms, surface oxygen defects like Fs centers, and metal supports. As an oxide, an MgO(001) surface, a prototype of an ionic oxide surface, was chosen here. All calculations were carried out using the density functional theory (DFT). First, a systematic approach was employed to investigate the adsorption geometries and electronic structures of late transition series (Cu, Ag, Au, Ni, Pd, and Pt) on ideal defect-free MgO(001) surfaces. For the above elements, the adsorption geometries, diffusion, and associated electronic structures were examined. Our calculations showed the favorable adsorption of the transition metal (TM) adatoms on top of the surface O atom. Further analysis showed that the TM-induced states formed in the gap region of MgO(001) vary significantly with the adsorption geometries. The DFT calculations have been also applied to investigate the adsorption of the TM adatoms (Cu, Ag, Au, Ni, Pd, and Pt) on defective MgO(001) surfaces with Fs centers as surface defects of oxides. The TM adatoms were found to favorably bind on the Fs centers. From the calculated adsorption structures and electronic structures, we carried out a systematic comparative analysis of the interactions of the metal adatoms with the surface oxygen vacancy and the regular surface oxygen atom of MgO(001). Finally, the adsorption of metal adatoms (Au and Pd) on Fe-supported ultrathin MgO(001) films was studied. Experimentally, it is well known that MgO films are epitaxially grown on Fe(001) due to their favorable physical properties. As such, the Fe/MgO/Fe junctions have been used as a system for magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) with huge tunneling-magnetoresistance (TMR) values. Interestingly, our calculations showed that the MgO/Fe(001) films we propose in this work can be used as a viable thin oxide model system. An analysis of the electronic structures in the systems reveals the negative charging even for Pd adatoms with a lower electron affinity. This indicates that the Fe substrate supporting the MgO films significantly influences charge and/or spin states of the metal adatoms. The physical origin of the negative charging of Pd was also discussed. These calculations demonstrate the importance of the interactions of the metal adatoms with underlying oxides for controlling the electronic and chemical properties of metal adatoms, such as charge and spin states.

Study on flexible potentiometric ion sensors for smart water quality monitoring systems

Park, Chani Kwangwoon University Graduate School 2022 국내석사

Recently, numerous studies have been performed to develop electrochemical-based biosensors with advantages of wide detection range, high sensitivity, and miniaturization. In particular, the potentiometric ion sensor is attracted, since it can cover a broad application area of electrochemical sensors. In the past, since ion detection methods required large machines to analyze electrolytes, in situ testing with continuous monitoring was not feasible. Recently, potentiometric ion sensors have been implemented in many new application fields such as smart health care monitoring and environmental analysis. To date, numerous studies have been reported to improve the performance such as stability, reliability, reproducibility and lifespan of potentiometric ion sensors. Accordingly, various new materials including nanomaterials, carbon materials, polymers, and metals have been utilized as transducer layer. However, nanomaterial-based potentiometric sensors still face several challenges such as the complicated process of synthesizing nanomaterials, the high cost of nanomaterials, aggregation and restacking problem of nanomaterials, low electron transfer rate, low electrochemical surface area, etc. Because of these challenges, the fabrication of new transducer-based sensing electrodes for potentiometric ion sensors requires further investigation with successful strategies. In this thesis, we proposed and studied several transducer layers for single and multi-analyte detection ion sensors. The first approach was to develop a treated poly(3,4- ethylenedioxtthiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) transducing layer with decreased hydrophilicity. The hydrophilicity of the transducing layer causes the formation of a water layer at the buried interface, which degrades the performance of the sensor. Through this study, the reduced hydrophilicity of the material was demonstrated as a way to achieve the high stability of the sensor. The Ca2+ ion-selective sensor was comprised of PET film, carbon electrodes, and an ion-selective membrane for a simple fabrication process. PEDOT:PSS was treated with ethylene glycol (EG) to reduce the hydrophilicity of the carbon electrode, and then well covered with a Ca2+ ion-selective membrane. The fabricated Ca2+ ion-selective electrode (Ca2+-ISE) exhibited excellent sensitivity and fast response. Moreover, negligible potential drift demonstrated the stability of PEDOT:PSS-EG compared to the pristine PEDOT:PSS-based transducing layer. The second approach was to develop a multi-ion sensor that can measure calcium, chloride, and hydrogen ions for tap water quality monitoring. The multi-ion sensor was developed with highly reproducible technology including photolithography, evaporation, electroplating, and electropolymerization to minimize the initial potential deviation of each fabricated sensor. The developed multi-ion sensor was utilized to measure the normal range of each ion in tap water and investigated its sensitivity, repeatability, selectivity, and lifetime. Finally, it was also confirmed that the developed sensor can be utilized for water quality inspection by measuring real tap water sample.

Brain connectivity analysis based on the graph theory

Park, Boyong Sungkyunkwan university 2019 국내박사

Brain is composed of structurally and functionally distinct sub-regions that are closely interconnected to each other. Understanding connectivity patterns among different brain regions is important for identifying the basis of complex neuronal mechanisms. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is widely used for exploring the brain as it is a non-invasive neuroimaging technique and it provides both the structural and functional information of the brain. One of the most representative analyzing methods to quantify MRI data is connectivity analysis that measures the connection strengths among different brain regions. Connectivity analysis considers the brain as a graph. The brain regions or networks are defined as graph nodes and the strengths between different nodes are defined as graph edges. Using the nodes and edges, connectivity matrix is constructed. From the connectivity matrix, various network measures that can simply quantify the complex connectivity patterns among brain regions are extracted. The connectivity measures can be used as biomarkers for disease diagnosis or prognosis prediction. Furthermore, it can be used to explore undefined function of the brain. In this thesis, following topics will be discussed: data preprocessing, connectivity analysis, and applications of connectivity analysis in neuroimaging data. In the data preprocessing section, we suggest a noble and robust preprocessing pipeline that can be applied to any MRI data. As there are no gold standards of data preprocessing steps, the pipeline that we propose might be served as a standardized pipeline for MRI data preprocessing. In following sections, the concept and detailed techniques of connectivity analysis will be discussed. Finally, how the connectivity analysis can be applied to the neuroimaging data will be discussed. 사람의 뇌는 다양한 구조로 이루어져 있고, 각각의 영역들은 서로 복잡하게 연결되어 있다. 복잡하게 연결된 뇌 영역들은 서로 여러 가지 정보들을 주고받으며 특정한 기능을 수행한다. 뇌 영역들 간의 연결성을 파악하는 것은 신경학적 기전을 이해하기 위한 필수 조건이다. 이러한 연결성을 파악하는 연구는 주로 뇌의 구조와 기능 정보를 모두 제공하는 자기공명영상을 이용하여 수행되며, 연결성 분석이라 불린다. 연결성 분석 방법은 사람의 뇌를 그래프로 간주하고 진행하는 분석 기법이며, 뇌 영역을 그래프의 노드, 영역들 간의 연결성 강도를 엣지로 정의한다. 그래프의 노드와 엣지를 이용하여 연결성 행렬을 만들고, 이로부터 뇌의 구조와 기능을 대표할 수 있는 다양한 네트워크 특징들을 추출한다. 네트워크 특징들은 질병 진단 또는 예후 예측을 위한 영상 지표로써 사용될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 자기공명영상의 전처리 과정, 연결성 분석 방법, 연결성 분석 방법이 실제 뇌 영상에 적용되는 사례에 대한 내용을 다룬다.

Development of self-emulsifying nanoemulsion containing atorvastatin and ezetimibe

Park, Shinae Sungkyunkwan University 2013 국내석사

The aim of this study was to develop complex Self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery system (SNEDDS) containing atorvastatin and ezetimibe. Atorvastatin, marketed as calcium salt form, is the top-selling drug and used to treat hyper cholesterolemia which could lead to severe disease like heart attack and stroke. In recent, ezetimibe is co-administered with atorvastatin. Because it has reduced adverse effect of statin drugs, and has been shown to provide significant incremental reductions with a synergy effect. These drugs are poorly water-soluble and have sufficient Log P values to be incorporate in lipid-based formulations. SNEDDS formulations are beneficial to solubilize atorvastatin and ezetimibe drug molecules. To solubilize the two kinds of drugs, excipients that could act as oil, surfactant or cosurfactant were screened. Three excipients of each oil, surfactant and cosurfactant groups were selected in the order of solubilizing capacity. Among the 33 nanoemulsion compositions, ‘Ethyl oleate-Tween 80-PEG 600’ was evaluated as best composition by pseudo ternary phase diagrams. To select most effective and stable SNEDDS formulations, the effect of oil contents on size and zeta-potential of droplets was examined. Moreover, there were techniques to solubilize more atorvastatin in optimal SNEDDS. The first was an elevation of pH value of SNEDDS environment, and the second was a conversion of drug salt formation. As a result, the second technique was successful in that atorvastatin free acid was 8 fold soluble than its calcium form in the system. The complex formulations containing atorvastatin calcium and free acid were compared each other. Also, the powders of atorvastatin calcium and its acid form were characterized by SEM/EDS, PXRD, DSC, and FT-IR. For two optimal complex formulations, size distribution, mean droplet size, zeta potential and morphology were assessed. Physical stability and dissolution profile of formulations was investigated to confirm advantages of this system. As a result, the physical stability in water and simulated gastric and intestinal fluid might come from extremely small droplet size and surface charge of droplets. The faster dissolution profile of the drugs from SNEDDS, especially in ezetimibe, establishes use of SNEDDS as a potential delivery system for water insoluble drugs.
