본 논문에서는 송전선로 도체의 경년열화(thermal deterioration)를 평가하기 위해 확률적 기법을 도입하였다. 선로의 경년열화를 나타내기 위해 선로의 장력(tensile strength) 감소를 계산하며 이는 해당 선로의 과거 전류 이력과 선로가 위치한 지역의 과거 기상데이터 및 부하량의 변화를 통해 산출한다 첫째로, 과거 데이터를 통해 확률분포를 구한 후 모든 데이터는 통계적으로 서로 간에 독립적이라는 가정 하에 Monte-Carlo Simulation을 수행하였다. 둘째로, 과거 데이터의 이력을 시간순서대로 추종하여 1시간 단위로 장력변화를 누적하는 순차적 계산(dynamic calculation)을 수행하였으며 그 결과를 MCS 기법과 비교하였다 주로 백분율로 표현하는 도체의 장력 감소분은 송전선로의 수명을 결정하는데 사용할 수 있는 중요한 지수이때, 계통계획에 있어서 유용한 기준으로 사용할 수 있을 것이다.

Purpose: To evaluate the postoperative magnetic resonance image (MRI) findings of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstructed with a tension load technique using auto-Achilles tendon, and to compare the results with knees with a native ACL. Materials and Methods: We evaluated 21 postoperative MRI scan of 21 patients (group A) who had undergone ACL reconstruction between January 1995 and November 1996. The control group (group B) consisted of 50 patients whose meniscus tear had been operated by arthroscopy and whose ACL was intact. We measured the orientation of the graft in the sagittal and coronal planes and compared it with that of the native ACL. Results: The mean sagittal angle of the ACL angle in group A ($55.7{\pm}5.6^{\circ}$, range $47.2{\sim}68.8^{\circ}$) was statistically lesser than group B ($58.7{\pm}3.8^{\circ}$, range $50.4{\sim}67.5^{\circ}$) (p=0.036). But there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups with regard to the mean ACL-Blumensaat line angle (group A: $8.1^{\circ}{\pm}4.9^{\circ}$, range $1.7^{\circ}{\sim}22.0^{\circ}$, group B: $8.6^{\circ}{\pm}3.6^{\circ}$, range $2.6^{\circ}-18.1^{\circ}$) and the mean coronal angle of the ACL (group A: $64.9^{\circ}{\pm}9.1^{\circ}$, range $46.9^{\circ}{\sim}76.4^{\circ}$, group B: $65.9^{\circ}{\pm}4.4^{\circ}$, range $57.7^{\circ}{\sim}75.2^{\circ}$)(p=0.88, p= 0.62). In the sagittal plane, the mean center of tibial insertion of the ACL graft in group A ($31.9{\pm}7.1%$, range 22.4-47.9%) was positioned more anteriorly than group B ($37.0{\pm}4.9%$, range $18.5{\sim}44.7%$)(p=0.005). But in the coronal plane, there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups(group A: $46.3{\pm}2.8%$, range $42.1{\sim}52.5%$, group B: $45.7{\pm}2.8%$, range $41.0{\sim}49.1%$)(p=0.392). Conclusion: We performed an ACL reconstruction with the tension load technique using auto-Achilles tendon and we found that the graft orientation in MRI was as good as that of the native ACL.

A transverse fracture is the most common type of displaced patella fracture requiring surgery. These fractures are commonly fixed with parallel Kirschner wires or screws that cross the fracture line, often with an additional tension band. Nevertheless, conventional fixation methods of patella fractures have prevalent complications caused by the protrusion of wires or pins. These complications necessitate additional surgery for hardware removal, increase medical cost, and can limit the function of the knee joint. This paper reports cases treated with a minimally invasive load-sharing percutaneous suture of the patella tendon. The procedure provides reliable fixation for transverse patella fractures, minimizes soft tissue injuries, preserves blood flow, and reduces postoperative pain. In addition, the procedure also reduces the irritation and pain caused by the internal fixture, thereby reducing the risk of restricted knee joint movement.

Fracture about proximal humerus may be classified as the articular segment or the anatomical neck, the greater tuberosity, the lesser tuberosity, and the shaft or surgical neck. Now, usually used, Neer's classification is based on the number of segments displaced, over 1cm of displaced or more than 45 degrees of angulation , rather than the number of fracture line . Absolute indication of a operative treatment a open fracture, the fracture with vascular injury or nerve injury , and unreductable fracture-dislocation . Inversely, the case that are severe osteoporosis, and eldly patient who can't be operated by strong internal fixation is better than arthroplasty used by primary prosthetic replacement and early rehabilitation program than open reduction and internal fixation. The operator make a decision for the patient who should be taken the open reduction and internal fixation, because it's different that anatomical morphology, bone density, condition of patient. The operator decide operation procedure. For example, percutaneous pinning, open reduction, plate & screws, wire tension bands combined with some intramedullary device are operation procedure that operator can decide . The poor health condition for other health problem, fracture with unstable vital sign and severe osteoporosis , are the relative contraindication. The stable fracture without dislocation is not the operative indication . The radiologic film of the prokimal humerus before the operation can not predict for fracture evaluation. It's necessary to good radiologic film for evaluation of fracture form. The trauma serise is better than the other radiologic film for evaluation. The accessary radiologic exam is able to help for evaluation of bone fragment and anatomy. The CT can be helpful in evaluating these injury, especially if the extract fracture type cannot be determined from plain roenterogram of the proximal humerus, bone of humerus head. If the dislocation is severe anatomically , we could consider to do three dimentional remodelling. The MRI doing for observing of bony morphology before the operation is not better than CT If we were suspicious of vascular injury, we could consider the angiography.
