The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between various predicting tools and Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI) to identify children with sleep disordered breathing (SDB). From 5 to 10 years old who came for orthodontic counseling, 61 children, whom had lateral cephalograms, pediatric sleep questionnaire (PSQ) records, and portable sleep monitoring results, were included in this study. A total of 17 measurements (11 distances and 6 angles) were made on lateral cephalograms. The measurements of lateral cephalograms, PSQ scales and portable sleep monitoring results were statistically analyzed. 49 of 61 (80%) patients showed AHI > 1, which suspected to have SDB and their mean AHI was 2.75. In this study, adenoid size (A/N ratio), position of the hyoid bone from mandibular plane, gonial angle, and PSQ scale were related to a higher risk of pediatric SDB. Also, oxygen desaturation index (ODI) and snoring time from sleep monitoring results were statistically significant in children with SDB using Mann-Whitney test (p < 0.05). In conclusion, evaluation of hyoid bone position, adenoidal hypertrophy, gonial angle in lateral cephalogram, and PSQ scale was important to screen out potential SDB, especially in children with frequent snoring.

Impervious covers(IC) are artificial structures, such as driveways, sidewalks, building's roofs, and parking lots, through which water cannot infiltrate into the soil. IC is an environmental concern because the pavement materials seal the soil surface, decreasing rainwater infiltration and natural groundwater recharge, and consequently disturb the hydrological cycle in a watershed. Increase of IC in a watershed can cause more frequent flooding, higher flood peaks, groundwater drawdown, dry river, and decline of water quality and ecosystem health. There has been an increased public interest in the institutional adoption of LID(Low Impact Development) and GI(Green Infrastructure) techniques to address the adverse impact of IC. The objectives of this study were to construct the modeling site for a samll urban watershed with the Storm Water Management Model(SWMM), and to evaluate the effect of various LID techniques on the control of rainfall runoff processes and non-point pollutant load. The model was calibrated and validated using the field data collected during two flood events on July 17 and August 11, 2009, respectively, and applied to a complex area, where is consist of apartments, school, roads, park, etc. The LID techniques applied to the impervious area were decentralized rainwater management measures such as pervious cover and green roof. The results showed that the increase of perviousness land cover through LID applications decreases the runoff volume and pollutants loading during flood events. In particular, applications of pervious pavement for parking lots and sidewalk, green roof, and their combinations reduced the total volume of runoff by 15~61 % and non-point pollutant loads by TSS 22~72 %, BOD 23~71 %, COD 22~71 %, TN 15~79 %, TP 9~64 % in the study site.

Objectives: The purposes of this study were to estimate the effect of mandibular advancement device (MAD) and to evaluate the influence of the advancement amount of mandible in the application of MAD for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients. Methods: From the patients who were diagnosed as OSA by polysomnographic study at Seoul National University Bundang Hospital from January 2007 to February 2009, the patients who chose MAD as treatment option were included in this study. All the patients’ data including clinical records and polysomnographic studies (both pre- and post-treatment) were reviewed and analyzed. Results: Successful results were obtained in 65 patients of 86 patients (75.6%). In the follow-up period, mild discomfort of anterior teeth or temporomandibular joint (TMJ) were described in 28 patients, especially in the cases the amount of mandibular advancement were more than 7.0 mm. There was no direct relationship between the amount of mandibular advancement and clinical outcome. Conclusion: MAD was effective treatment option for the OSA patients regardless of severity. For the prevention of potential dental complications, the amount of mandibular advancement should be considered at the time of MAD treatment.

강수량 변동에 따른 사면 내의 지하수유동과 사면의 안정성 변화를 동시에 분석.평가하기 위하여 하나의 완전 연동된 수리지질역학적 모델을 제시하였다. 이 모델은 변형성 지질매체 내에서의 지하수유동을 설명하는 일련의 지배식들과 Galerkin 유한요소법에 기초하여 개발되었다. 1990년부터 1999년까지의 서울지역의 건기 (1월) 및 우기 (8월) 강수량 하에 있는 토양 사면에 대해 개발된 모델을 적용하여 일련의 수치실험을 실시하였다. 수치실험의 결과는 강수량이 증가함에 따라 사면의 수리역학적 안정성이 전반적으로 악화됨을 보여준다. 즉 강수량이 증가할수록 공극수압이 증가하고 지하수면이 상승한다. 그 결과 불포화대가 축소되고 삼출면이 팽창되며 사면의 전단부를 따라 지하수유동속도가 증가하게 된다. 동시에 강수량이 증가할수록 사면 전단부를 향해 전반적인 변위량이 증가한다. 그 결과 안전율이 1 이하인 불안전한 지역이 사면 전단부에서 사면 상부 쪽으로 전파.팽창되며 그 두께도 증가한다. 수치실험의 결과는 또한 사면의 표면에서는 전단파괴와 더불어 인장파괴도 발생할 수 있음을 보여준다.

측면웨어(side weir)는 본류의 수위가 한계수위 이상으로 상승할 경우 본류로부터 저류지나 분수로(distributary channel)로 흐름을 전환하기 위하여 사용하는 수공구조물이다. 최근 들어 치수와 관련된 계획에서 본류의 홍수량 중 일부를 저류지나 홍수 우회수로로 전환시키는 시설에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 측면웨어가 하천에 설치되는 경우, 측면웨어 부근 표층부의 흐름은 측면웨어의 영향을 크게 받으며, 수의바닥이나 측면웨어에서 떨어진 지점의 흐름은 측면웨어의 영향을 작게 받는 등 측면웨어 주변부는 3차원적인 흐름특성을 보인다. 또한 측면웨어를 월류하는 흐름이 일반 웨어와 같이 웨어 마루부에 대하여 직각방향으로 흐르지 않고 본류의 유속에 따라 비스듬하게 흐르게 된다. 이러한 흐름특성으로 인해 측면웨어를 통과하는 유량은 본류의 하폭, 본류의 흐름특성, 측면웨어의 길이 및 설치위치 등에 따라 각기 다르게 산정되는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존 측면웨에에 관한 연구를 정리하고 상용 프로그램인 FLOW-3D를 이용하여 측면웨어가 설치된 경우의 흐름을 해석하였다. 해석결과는 기존 실험연구에 바탕을 둔 이론식과 비교하였다. 계산격자는 구조물 부근의 흐름이 급변하는 곳은 격자크기를 작게, 흐름의 변화가 완만한 곳은 격자크기를 크게 하였다. 경계조건으로 상류는 유량, 하류는 수위경계를 입력하였다. 본 수치모의결과와 이론식을 이용하여 산정한 월류량을 비교한 결과 약 $10-30\% 내외의 오차가 발생하는 것으로 나타났다. 본류의 흐름은 웨어의 길이가 짧을수록 상$\cdot$하류단의 수위차가 작아지며 유속의 경우 웨어길이가 길고, 높이가 낮을수록 빨라진다. 측면웨어 주변부 흐름의 경우, 웨어의 길이가 짧을수록 방류강도가 강하고 횡방향의 수면변위가 급하게 형성되고 있음을 알 수 있다 또한, 웨어의 길이가 상대적으로 길어질 경우에는 3차원적 흐름특성에 의하여 유속의 분포가 다양하여 이론식과 결과의 오차가 점점 더 커짐을 알 수 있다. 본 연구는 사각형수로에 측면웨어가 설치된 경우, 월류량과 수리학적 거동을 해석할 때 수치모형실험이 수리모형실험과 더불어 유용한 해석도구로 이용될 수 있음을 보인 깃으로 이후 관련 구조물의 설계와 해석 시 참고자료로 이용 가능할 것으로 판단된다.
