Abstract: Disclosed are in situ-forming injectable hydrogel and medical uses thereof. In the in situ-forming injectable hydrogel two or more homogeneous or heterogeneous polymers are bonded to each other by a dehydrogenation reaction between phenol or aniline moieties on adjacent polymers, wherein a polymer backbone is grafted with a phenol or aniline moiety using a linker. In contrast to conventional hydrogel, the in situ-forming injectable hydrogel is superior in terms of in vivo stability and mechanical strength thanks to the introduction of a water-soluble polymer as a linker which leads to an improvement in the reactivity of phenol or aniline moieties. Having the advantage of superior bio stability and mechanical strength, the hydrogel finds a variety of applications in the biomedical field.

Abstract: Disclosed are a structure for construction, which includes a hollow structure having a plurality of cells provided therein with hollows, arranged in a set three-dimension pattern, and partitioned by cell walls, and a cover enclosing the outside of the hollow structure, and a method of manufacturing the same. In this way, because the plurality of hollow cells of the hollow structure are partitioned by the cell walls and provided therein with the hollows, the overall weight can be reduced, and the rigidity and strength can be maintained at an adequate level despite the reduced weight. Also, due to the cells installed in the three-dimensional pattern, the growth of cracks or damage caused by impacts can be confined to local areas. Furthermore, since the weight is reduced, distribution and transportation costs can be reduced.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a treemap visualization system and method, and more particularly, to a system and method which enables a user to control a visualized three-dimensional treemap with emphasis on a hierarchical structure, without distortion of the sizes of nodes. To this end, the treemap visualization system according to the present invention comprises a raw-data receiving unit, a node-region forming unit, and a node-region protrusion unit. The raw-data receiving unit receives raw data which contains a plurality of hierarchical nodes having weight values. The node-region forming unit forms node regions which are located on a convexly curved surface so as to correspond to the respective nodes. The node-region protrusion unit determines protrusion directions of the respective node regions such that the respective node regions do not overlap with each other, and protrudes the node regions by parallel translating the node regions in the determined protrusion directions.
