We aimed to identify the association of hydration status with insulin resistance (IR) and body fat distribution. A total of 14 344 adults participated in the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2008–2010. We used urine specific gravity (USG) to indicate hydration status, and HOMA-IR (homoeostasis model assessment of IR) and trunk:leg fat ratio (TLR) as primary outcomes. In multivariate logistic regression, the OR per 0·01 increase in USG for high IR was 1·303 (95 % CI 1·185, 1·433; P < 0·001). In multivariate generalised additive model plots, increased USG showed a J-shaped association with logarithmic HOMA-IR, with the lowest Akaike’s information criterion score of USG 1·030. Moreover, increased USG was independently associated with increased trunk fat, decreased leg fat and increased TLR. In mediation analysis, the proportion of mediation effects of USG on TLR via IR was 0·193 (95 % CI 0·132, 0·285; P < 0·001), while the proportion of mediation effects of USG on IR via TLR was 0·130 (95 % CI 0·086, 0·188; P < 0·001). Increased USG, a sign of low hydration status and presumably high vasopressin, was associated with IR and poor fat distribution. Direct effect of low hydration status may be more dominant than indirect effect via IR or fat distribution. Further studies are necessary to confirm our findings.

The status of Asian populations of the Eurasian otter Lutra lutra is largely unknown. Since its designation as a Natural Monument (in 1983) and as Endangered (in 1997) in South Korea the authorities there have been trying to conserve and recover the species. We conducted a national otter survey by standard methods in 2017 and compared the current otter distribution to those recorded in a previous survey (2010). We found otter signs in 84.5% of 1,105 10 × 10 km grid cells, with the highest sprainting intensity in the south-west in the Yeongsan River Basin and on the south coast, where we recorded 7.05 and 6.26 spraints/site, respectively. Despite relatively low spraint densities, the otter has expanded its range since 2010 by colonizing urban areas. This trend suggests that South Korea could be a source area for the recovery of the Eurasian otter in East Asia.

The dynamics of two rectangular, flexible plates of low aspect ratio $h/b$ (height/width = 4) was experimentally investigated in tandem arrangements under uniform flows at various Cauchy numbers $Ca=\unicode[STIX]{x1D70C}_{f}bU_{0}^{2}h^{3}/(EI)\in [15,77]$ (where $\unicode[STIX]{x1D70C}_{f}$ is the fluid density, $U_{0}$ is the incoming flow velocity, $E$ is the Young’s modulus and $I$ is the second moment of the area) and spacings $s_{x}=\unicode[STIX]{x0394}x/h=0.5$, 1 and 2. Planar particle image velocimetry (PIV) and particle tracking velocimetry (PTV) were used to characterize the surrounding flow field and oscillations of the wall-mounted structures. Results show that the oscillations of the upstream plate were dominated by its natural frequency. However, the motions of the downstream plate were significantly modulated by the induced flow and coherent motions shed from the upstream structure. Such modulation led to highly correlated motions between the plates with similar amplitude in the case $s_{x}=0.5$, to comparatively larger oscillation amplitude of the downstream plate in the intermediate separation $s_{x}=1$, and roughly decoupled interaction for $s_{x}=2$. Despite that the intensity of the oscillations of the upstream plate increased monotonically with $Ca$, this was not the case for the downstream plate at $s_{x}=1$ and 2 due to flow fluctuations, vortex shedding and large structure deformation; as a result, it exhibited a local minimum. Supported with measurements, a mathematical model was derived to quantitatively explain this behaviour.

We report the development of oxygen sensors using polymer photonic bandgap structure and CMOS chips. These integrated sensors provide a new platform for the development of low cost, low (battery) powered, light weight, robust, fast and small sensors. We demonstrate an approach to encapsulation of chemical and biological recognition elements within the porous structures. This sensing platform is built on our recently demonstrated nanofabrication technique using holographic interferometry of a photo-activated mixture that includes a volatile solvent as well as monomers, photoinitiators, and co-initiators. Resulting structure is nanoporous polymer 1D photonic bandgap structures that has reflection grating property and can be directly integrated into optical sensor systems that we have previously developed. For optical sensor system, CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) detectors that include phototransistors, trans impedance amplifier, and other signal processing units are used. Combining CMOS chip and nano-porous polymer reflection grating, we demonstrate an oxygen sensor as a prototype by encapsulating the fluorophore (tris(4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenathroline)ruthenium(II) using fluorescence intensity.

Ion beam analysis techniques have become very useful for characterization of low k materials. Studies on several ion beam analysis techniques will be discussed. Rutherford Backscattering Spectrometry (RBS) provides a very powerful analytical technique for the thickness and porosity measurements on porous Si0 2 films. Nuclear Reaction Analysis (NRA) techniques for hydrogen and fluorine profiling are very useful to characterize fluorinated polymer and fluorinated oxide films. Examples of low k materials including Si02:F, Parylene-AF and Teflon-AF will be discussed. Fluorine diffusion in to metals and various interface effects between metal and low k materials will be presented.

Adhesion of Cu and Cr to polyimide was studied by 90° peel test, AES, and X-ray diffraction. The two necessary conditions of the high adhesion strength were the presence of Cr interlayer and the preactivation of the polymer surface by RF plasma treatment. The Cr is thought to react with activated polyimide to form carbide-like bonds which enhance the adhesion strength drastically. Correlations between the peel strength and C260/Cr527 Auger PHR from the peeled metal strip were good. Qualitatively, the peel strength is related to the amount of plastic deformation done on the metal strip during peeling.
