Purpose: To find out the pathologic symptoms, and the incidence and clinical significance of the coexistence of internal derangement of knee(IDOK) in osteochondroma around the knee. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively reviewed forty-five patients under 20 years of age treated with the excision of the osteochondroma around the knee between 1995 and 2004. We analyzed age, gender, past history, family history, solitary or multiple osteochondroma, presenting pathologic symptoms, and causes of IDOK. Results: IDOK was confirmed in nine(20%) among the 45 cases. There were four cases of multiple osteochondromatosis, and IDOK was coexisted in one case among them. The most common presenting pathologic symptoms were painless mass of 38 cases, however 9 cases among them had joint pain for IDOK. There were 7 cases of meniscal tears and 2 of pathologic plica. Discoid meniscus was found in 4 cases among the 7 cases of meniscal tears. Conclusion: Coexistence of osteochondroma around knee and IDOK in this study probably represents a coincidence rather than a real association. However the incidence might be not low, special study and close observation should be done.

Microstructure and chemical analysis of sintered bricks containing recycled wastes were investigated by SEM and EDS. The recycled wastes for which substitute ceramic raw materials were EAF (electric arc furnace) dust, fly ash and stone ash. Yellowish and brownish regions on the surface and brownish and blackish regions in the inside of bricks were observed. Main component of yellowish region on the surface turned out to be Zn. No chemical difference between the black-core region and brownish matrix. Mullite crystallites of 1 fm size were distributed in the inside of bricks and enclosed by glass phases. It seems that alumine-silicate mixtures of kaolin and fly ash were transformed to mullite crystallites during the sintering. Relatively large pores ot several ten fm size were observed in the black-core region in the inside of bricks. The main components of the inside of brick were Al and Si. The minor components were C, Na, Mg, K, Ca, and Fe. Particularly, the precipitates of Fe-rich crystallites were observed in the amorphous matrix. These precipitates were formed due to the local reduction atmosphere in the inside of bricks. Zn-rich covers were found on the surface of bricks because Zn diffused from the inside of bricks to the surface under the reduction atmosphere.

In order to quantify the contribution of cosmic-ray ionizing component to the dose given by natural background radiation, a series of measurement has been carried out using LiF TLDs for about one and a half years on quarterly basis. Three different types of LiF TLDs namely, chips and PTFE based disks of $^{7}LiF$, and the same disks of $^{6}LiF$ for identifying possible contribution of neutron component were used. Measurements were made by placing badge-incased TLDs in a lead castle of 10 to 15cm thick installed in a room on the third floor of a four-story building in CNU Daedeok campus for 5 cycles of 90 days. For comparison a series of spectrometric study was also performed for the energy region over 3MeV using a 3'${\phi}\;{\times}\;3$'NaI(Tl) scintillation detector in association with an MCA of 1024 channels, and it was found that the data obtained by the TLDs placed in the lead castle indicate 75% of the dose given by outdoor cosmic-ray component. The results obtained by the TLDs through correction for shielding loss show that the outdoor dose contribution of ionizing component of cosmic rays at this campus is $34.3{\pm}1.1nGy/h$ which satisfactorily agrees with that expected for our particular location of measurement.

The characteristics of drag reduction and rheological behaviors were investigated using cationic surfactants, whose microstructures are known to change when concentration of the surfactant exceeds CMC. The firstly formed spherical micelles change to rodlike or disklike micelles because of packing between surfactants micells, and of thermodynamic perference. The drag reduction becomes significant when the concentration increases over this micellar transient point. Drag reductions were measured as a function of concentration, and rheological characteristics of the surfactant were further investigated to understand the correlation between their rheological properties and drag reduction. Micelles show the non-Newtonian behavior, and shear thickening behaviors were observed due to the structural development. In addition, structural developments were determined by adding the counter-ion in case of DOBON-G.

The helical pile is a manufactured steel pile consisting of one or more helix-shaped bearing plates affixed to a central shaft. This pile is installed by rotating the shaft into the ground to support structural loads. Advantages of the helical pile are no need for boring or grout process, and ability to install a pile foundation with relatively light devices. In this study, an optimized design method for helical piles is proposed to minimize the material cost with consideration of the load bearing capacity obtained by the cylindrical shear method. The harmony search meta-heuristic algorithm was adopted for optimization process. The optimized design was verified by comparing with the 2009 International building code. It is noted that the optimization for the configuration of helical piles along with material cost proves to be an out-performed tool in designing helical pile foundation with economic feasibility.

Objectives: This study investigated the effects of the color components of light-cured composite resin before and after polymerization on degree of conversion (DC) and biaxial flexural strength (FS). Materials and Methods: Four enamel shades (A1, A2, A3, A4) and two dentin shades (A2O, A3O) of Premisa (Kerr Co.) and Denfil (Vericom Co.) were evaluated on their CIE $L^*,\;a^*,\;b^*$ color components using the spectrophotometer before curing, after curing and at 7 day. The DC of same specimens were measured with Near-infrared spectrometer (Nexus, Thermo Nicolet Co.) at 2 hr after cure and at 7 day. Finally, the FS was obtained after all the other measurements were completed at 7 day. The correlations between each color component and DC and FS were evaluated. Results: The light-curing of composite resin resulted in color changes of Premisa in red-blue direction and Denfil in green-blue direction. The DC and FS were affected by product, time and shade (3-way ANOVA, p < 0.05) and product and shade (2-way ANOVA, p < 0.05), respectively. Premisa only showed a significant correlation between the DC and CIE $a^*$ component - before and after polymerization (Pearson product moment correlation, p < 0.05). The FS of Premisa showed significant negative correlations with CIE $a^*$ and CIE $b^*$ components. Conclusions: The DC and FS of the light-curing composite resin were affected by the color components of the material before and after polymerization.

Among the skeletal tuberculosis, tuberculous spondylitis is high incidence and curable disease, if early diagnosis and treatment are possible. We reviewed clinical manifestations and radiologic analysis of 30 cases tuberculous spondylitis from May 1983 to Sept. 1986, at Yeungnam medical center, Yeungnam University. The results were follows : 1. The frequent involve sites were thoracolumbar vertebra. 2. The continuous lesion is 86.7% of the all cases. 3. The most common type was intervertebral type, and lytic and sclerotic lesion were same incidence. 4. Paravertebral abscess, kyphosis and disc space narrowing were demonstrated more than 80.0% of the cases. 5. Computed tomography was more accurate diagnostic method rather than conventional plain study to evaluation of extent of lesion, involvement of spinal canal and cord, and size and location of paravertebral abscess. And CT guided abscess drainage procedure was helpful to diagnosis and treatment. 6. Ultrasonography was helpful to differential diagnosis between paravertebral abscess and other solid mass, and useful to follow up study of paravertebral abscess after treatment.

셀구조물은 선박, 항공기, 우주선 등의 산업분야에 자주 사용되는 중요한 구조요소로서, 이에 대한 연구도 공학적 필요성에 의해 많은 연구가 진행되어 왔다. Maddox등의 Rayleigh-Ritz법, Srinivasan and Bobby의 적분방정식 기법, Petyt의 유한요소법, Irie, Henderson등의 전달매트릭스법, 그 외 Webster, Petyt and Deb Nath, Blevins, Srinivasan and Krishnan등에 의해 여러가지 해석방법의 진동해석이 행해져 왔다. 현재 주로 사용되고 있는 매트릭스 구조해석 및 진동해석 방법으로는 유한요소법과 전달매트릭스법을 들 수 있다. 유한요소법은 범용적인 해석 프로그램의 개발은 수월하지만 대규모의 선형 연립방정식의 해법에 귀착되므로, 기억용량이 큰 대형컴퓨터가 필요하고, 반면 전달매트릭스법은 기억용량이 적은 퍼스널컴퓨터로도 계산수행이 가능하나 고차의 고유진동수를 구할 경우나, 중간에 단단한 경탄성지지가 존재할 경우 등에는 수치계산상의 문제점이 지적되고 있다. 이에 대한 대책으로, 상태변수를 바꾸어 넣은 Riccati방법, 각 절점의 기지의 상태변수를 제거하는 Frontal법, 전달매트릭스와 강성매트릭스를 결합시키는 방법 등이 보고 되고 있다. 이에 자자들은 퍼스널컴퓨터 이용에 적합한 고속, 고정도의 구조해석 및 진동해석 기법으로 전달영향계수법을 제안하여, 원판구조물, 사각판구조물, 원통형 셀구조물 등의 여러가지 형상구조물의 자유진동 해석에 적용해서, 종래의 전달매트릭스법에 비해 계산정도 및 계산속도의 양면에서 매우 우수함을 보고한바 있다. 본 연구에서는 동적영향계수의 축차전달에 그 개념을 두고 있는 전달영향계수법을 좀 더 일반화시키고 체계화시키기 위하여 탄성지지를 갖는 셀구조물에 적용하여 자유진동 해석 알고리즘을 정식화한 후, 간단한 모델에 대한 수치실험을 통해서 전달 영향계수법으로 구한 해를 전달매트릭스법의 결과와 비교.검토하여 본 방법의 유용성을 확인하였다.

Mixing is most important for developing an electric washer which transforms angular momentum from rotating solid wall to laundry clothes inside it. For magnification of this mixing effect, some inventions are introduced to washing machine system, i. e., washing plate, washing rod, and even for washing cap in a model of a Korean manufacture. However, the previous efforts show dissatisfaction up till now. In this paper, a triumph to enhance mixing effects to increase washing performance is presented and verified by numerical investigation. The present model to simulate a washing tub is the simple circular cylinder with two endwall disks which is completely filled with a viscous liquid. The present improvement is to change mounting position of a bottom disk of the model cylinder. Therefore, the aim of this work just proposes a new idea, which is numerically inspected, to a producer of washing machine, In detail, this invention is alternating the mounting position of a rotating bottom disk. Actually skewed pulsator is placed in steady of a flat disk, so the two endwall disks at top and bottom are not in parallel. The angle between an inclined bottom disk and the horizontal plane is fixed as 5 degree and physical domain to consider poses a sliced cylinder. Flow fields in both a right circular cylinder and the present improved model are fully depicted by numerical integration on a body fitted nonorthogonal regular uniform grid system. Numerical data to explain flow structure are plotted for understanding of the effects of the inclined disk. Also enhanced mixing effects by the inclined rotating disk are gauged by accurate numerical data used in this work.
