A 38-year old man was admitted to our hospital due to a $5{\times}6cm$ sized pulsating mass in the right neck. He suffered from intermittent neck pain and hoarseness for two months due to the rapidly growing mass. The radiological examinations revealed an aneurysm of the right common carotid artery near the bifurcation, and it was compressing the internal and external carotid arteries. Endarterectomy of the right internal carotid artery, aneurysmectomy of the right common carotid artery and graft interposition were done, while the cerebral circulation was maintained by an internal shunt. Intraoperative injury to the nerve tissue around the aneurysm was avoided. He was discharged on the postoperative 7th day without any complications.

치과재료의 개발은 치과 치료 기술에 있어서 가장 중요한 요소이며, 현재 일반화되고 있는 치과 치료 기술 중 하나가 임플란트 시술이다. 임플란트의 기술 개발은 주로 임플란트 나사의 표면개질을 통한 기능개선에 초점을 ��추어 진행되어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 Ti 임플란트 표면상에 양극산화법을 적용하여 다양한 지름 및 기공 크기를 갖는 $TiO_2$ 나노튜브를 제조하여 전자빔 조사를 통한 표면개질시 그 특성에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 특히 전자빔 조사가 Ti/$TiO_2$ 나노튜브 표면상에 존재 가능한 조골세포의 성장 특성에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. 양극산화법을 이용한 Ti/$TiO_2$ 나노튜브는 전해질로서 HF와 $NH_4F$를 사용하였으며, 20-80 V의 인가 전압하에서 내경 약 80 nm, 외경 약 124 nm 및 길이 약 280 nm-14 ${\mu}m$의 비교적 균질한 지름 및 분포를 갖는 Ti/$TiO_2$ 나노튜브를 제조하였다. 전자빔 조사는 EB-Tech (대전, 한국)의 electron-beam accelerator(Model ELV-4)를 이용하였으며, 1.0 MeV의 빔 에너지로 총 흡수선량이 50 kGy, 500 kGy 및 5,000 kGy로 조사하였다. 전자빔을 조사하기 전 후 Ti/$TiO_2$ 나노튜브 표면상에 조골세포주(Osteoblast cell)의 배양시간의 변화에 따른 효과를 연구한 결과 배양 전 후 전자빔 조사선량의 증가에 따라 조골세포의 흡착률이 증가함을 확인할 수 있었다. 특히 HF전해질을 이용한 $TiO_2$ 나노튜브의 경우 5,000 kGy 조사선량의 전자빔을 조사한 후 조골세포 흡착률이 약 160% 증가하는 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 전자빔 조사 전 후 조골세포 흡착률의 변화원인은 전자빔 조사 유무에 따른 $Ti^{3+}$와 $Ti^{4+}$의 변화에 기인함을 규명하였다. 이러한 결과는 향후 임플란트용 Ti/$TiO_2$ 나노튜브의 표면 개질시 전자빔의 유용성을 제시한다고 할 수 있다.

The hybrid engine ignition system was designed with valve system using external actuator and confirmed working without any fault. To design fuel grain an internal ballistics design was carried out, and to estimate rockets flight path an external ballistics analysis was carried out. So the rocket was designed and constructed, and the launch test proves that hybrid rocket's design was suitable. The hybrid rocket(weight : 9kg, diameter : 110 mm, height : 1.7 m) was launched successfully. But parachute was deployed on mid-flight and the mission could not finish its purposed flight. Some of problems were found in this activity but next launch vehicle will be improved.

Inhibition of xanthine oxidase by seaweed extracts obtained from Undaria pinnatifida, Ecklonia stolonifera, Ecklonia cava, Laminaria japonica, Sargassum, Codiumfragile, Enteromorpha compressa and Porphyra tenera were investigated. Extracts of E. stolonifera and E. mua remarkably inhibited xanthine oxidase activity compared to those of other seaweed. The xanthine oxidase inhibitory activity of E. cava was higher than that of E. stolonifera. Diethyl ether extract from E. cava was more effective in the inhibition of xanthine oxidase than other solvent extracts. Two xanthine oxidase inhibitors(A-1 and A-2) from diethyl ether extract were isolated and purified by silica gel column chromatography, thin layer chromatography and high performance liquid chromatography. Xanthine oxidase inhibitory activities of these compounds were 27.8 and 48.1% per 0.4mg, respectively. The active compound A-2 had absorption peak at 420nm, 456nm and 467nm, which can be considered as siphonaxanthine.

The flow and combustion characteristics in a premixed swirl combustor with a double cone burner are numerically analyzed to adopt a swirler model. The internal recirculation zone formed at the burner exit can be realized by a swirler with inner and outer diameters of 56 and 152 mm, respectively, and accordingly, the flow rate and radial velocity were determined. To select the tangential velocity, swirl and recirculation angles are introduced. A tangential velocity of 40 m/s produces an internal recirculation zone similar to that in a combustor. At the liner exit, the errors in temperature and velocity are 2.8% and 0%, respectively, and they are negligibly small. However, NOx emissions are underestimated by 67% in the numerical results obtained using the swirler model. Although considerable quantitative errors are induced by the swirler model, it can be useful numerical model for the EV burner because it can approximately simulate the essential flow and combustion characteristics in a premixed swirl combustor with a double cone burner and it is expected to make combustion analysis efficient in a gas turbine combustor with complex geometries.

Recent trends in miniaturization and lightness in portable electronics parts have driven developments in subminiature screws. This study aims to investigate the thread rolling process of a subminiature screw with an outer diameter and pitch of 1.0 and 0.25 mm, respectively. Finite element (FE) analyses were performed for the thread rolling process of symmetric and asymmetric screw threads. Through FE analyses, various process parameters, such as the horizontal and vertical die gap and the rolling stroke, were investigated in terms of the forming accuracy. The material flow characteristics in the thread rolling process of the symmetric and asymmetric screws were also discussed, and the relevant process parameters were determined accordingly. These simulation results were then reflected on real thread rolling processes, from which the symmetric and asymmetric screws could be formed successfully with allowable dimensional accuracy.

We propose a variable frame structure connected with telescopic mast-shaped shaft for a robot displaying outstanding ability to cross obstacles, and for effective traction control. The wireless control system was built to extend and contract a deployable mechanism, which is shaped into a hoberman sphere assembled with frame structures. In order to develop important parameters for efficient locomotion, we derived an Euler-Lagrange equation for the spherical robot. According to the equation, the DC motor was selected. A prototype mechanism was tested and a Finite-Element Analysis (FEA) was conducted in parallel. Using these data, we constructed a deployable spherical robot with structural stability. The deployable robot moved at a speed of 0.85 m/s from 520 mm to 650 mm.

In this paper, the design of BLDC (brushless direct current) motors based on torque and back-EMF equations was carried out to assess the application of the motor in concrete vibrators. The air gap flux density of the motor is an important parameter because the length of the motor and the size of the diameter are given. The air gap magnetic flux density was calculated through a simplified magnetic circuit, and basic design of the shape and dimensions of the motor were then determined by carrying out experiments based on torque, back-EMF, and air magnetic flux density equations. After setting the outer and inner diameters, stack lengths, and rated speed of the motor, a detailed design was performed by simulations using the finite element method by designating the diameter and thickness of the motor as the key parameters. The final design to satisfy the target torque and the lowest THD (Total Harmonic Distortion) was carried out along with a simulation.

The clamping characteristics of segmented nuts in pyrotechnic separation nut are investigated using finite element analysis. When the segmented nuts are used to clamp objects, a constraint cylinder is necessary to prevent the segmented nuts from spreading out to the radial direction. During the manufacturing process, a clearance is usually introduced between the outer diameter of the segmented nuts and the inner diameter of the constraint cylinder. Therefore to find out the effect of the clearance, proper finite element modeling method is suggested to describe the clamping procedure appropriately. In addition, finite element analysis with the clearance of 0.00, 0.03, 0.06, and 0.10 mm are performed. From the analysis results, the clamping characteristics of segmented nuts are investigated according to the clearance, and several factors which should be considered to design a reliable pyrotechnic separation nut are figured out.
