Parosteal lipoma is a rare benign tumor containing mature adipose tissue having an intimate relationship to the periosteum. Characteristically, this tumor presents as a lipomatous mass adjacent to bone, eliciting variable reactive changes in the underlying cortex. We report a case of parosteal lipoma of the foot. The MR findings consisted of juxtacortical lipomatous mass abutting to bony protuberance, with internal fibrous striations, and osseous reaction in the adjacent bone. By the aid of multiplanar imaging capability, high spatial and contrast resolution of MRI, characteristic features of parosteal lipoma can lead to diagnosis on imaging.

In this study, an ISO 5660-1 cone calorimeter experiment was conducted to examine the effects of changes in flow and thermal thickness around solid combustibles on heat release rate characteristics. Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) is a solid combustible material that does not generate char during the combustion reaction. Hence, it was selected for the experiment, and the thermal penetration depth was calculated to distinguish the thermal thickness of PMMA. Furthermore, the thermal decomposition characteristics were analyzed by measuring the heat release rate measured during the combustion of PMMA. This was performed after generating the forced flow around the combustibles by setting the duct flow of the cone calorimeter to 12, 24, and 40 L/s. The results confirmed that the thermal release rate of the thermally thin combustible material was not significantly affected by the change in the surrounding flow. Hence, the thermally thick combustible material was significantly affected by the change in the flow rate.

Recently, use of the heat transferring machine and systems has been increasing in various industrial fields. A key technique for constructing such process is basically to measuring temperature directly to objects established on industrial plants. Particularly, a non-contact temperature measurement is very important to realize advanced heat transferring systems. This paper presents a new measurement methodology for temperature by using USN(ubiquitous sensor networks) technique including the microprocessor unit based ZigBee communication systems. This proposed system is made to be applied in monitoring systems for non-contact temperature measurement. We designed firmware based measurement systems whose main function is to save s series of temperature data sets and send it to main monitoring systems.

일반적으로 건축물의 설계시 풍동 실험을 통한 풍환경의 평가를 수행하고 있으며, 이는 환경 영향 평가법에서 정한 건축 사업 시행 시 수반되어야 할 자연환경, 생활환경 그리고 사회경제환경의 영향 평가의 일환으로 실시되고 있다. 그러나, 풍동 실험의 경우 여러 가지 현실적 제약조건으로 설계와 실험의 피드백 (Feedback)이 원활하지 못하며, 특히 대상 건축물이 공장과 같이 대기 오염원이 되는 경우 실험은 더욱 어려운 형편이다. 이에 대한 보완책으로 전산 유체 역학을 이용한 건축물의 풍압 해석에 의한 풍하중 추정이나 인접 지형-지물의 영향을 고려한 건축물 주위의 풍환경 평가가 있다. 전산 모사에 의해 풍동 실험의 미비점을 보완하고, 보다 상세한 정보를 확보함으로써 건축물의 구조적 안전성의 증대와 환경 피해 감소를 기할 수 있다. 그러나 복잡한 지형-지물이나 건축물 주위의 풍환경에 대한 전산 모사는 주로 두 가지의 기술적 어려움을 수반하게 되다. 그 중 하나는 고정 경계면을 이루는 형상의 복잡성으로 인해 기존에 많이 이용하고 있는 Body-fitted 격자계를 이용하는 경우, 격자 생성 과정이 매우 복잡하고 어려울 뿐 만 아니라 생성된 격자가 주로 비정렬 (unstructured) 특성을 갖게 되어 수치해석 과정의 효율을 저하시키는 요인이 되며, 격자의 형상도 수치해석의 수렴성을 저하시키는 예가 많다. 다른 어려움으로 풍환경은 전형적인 난류 유동장으로서 난류의 전산 해석은 아직도 해결하지 못한 부분이 많다는 점이다. 이에 본 논문에서는 복잡한 지형-지물이나 건축물의 풍하중과 풍환경의 전산 모사 기술 확보를 위하여 수행중인 연구의 일환으로 물체 형상의 기하학적 복잡성의 극복을 위한 가상경계법 (Immersed Boundary Method)과 난류 유동장의 물리적 엄밀성을 높이기 위한 다와동 모사 (Large Eddy Simulation)을 이용한 물체 형상과 무관한 유동장 해석 기술 개발에 대하여 다루고자 한다. 먼저 최근에 유동 해석에 이용되는 방법인 가상경계법(IBM)은 물체를 포함한 전체 전산 영역을 직교 좌표계에 의해 이산화하고, 유동장내 존재하는 물체의 표면에서의 점착 조건을 만족시키기 위하여 지배 방정식에 적절한 외력을 추가로 고려하는 방법이다. 본 연구에서는 가상경계법을 이용하여 경계층에 위치한 건물 형상의 각진 물체 주위 사이에 형성되는 공동 내부의 비정상 유속 및 압력에 대한 전산 해석을 수행하고, 풍상측 전면에 형성되는 경계층에 의한 영향을 분석하였다.

Extraarticular synovial chondromatosis is a very rare disease which affects the hands, feet, and wrists most commonly. In cases of involvement around large joints, the tissues around knee are usually involved. It arises from tendon sheath, capsular tissue and bursae. It is an idiopathic process in which the synovial cells undergo the metaplasia into cartilage cells. Chondroid matrix of the cartilaginous nodules calcify and ossify to be the osteochondroma. On simple radiograms before calcification and/or ossification of the chondroid tissues the cartilaginous nodules look normal on radiograms. Therefore MRI is needed to establish the diagnosis. We report a case of extraarticular pan-peri-meniscal synovial chondroma around right knee, initially suspected as a ganglion cyst which clinically mimicked a large rounded lesion or a cystic lesion on MRI.

Amyloidosis has been reported to be associated with non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Amyloidosis and lymphoma can be related in two ways: lymphoma-associated systemic amyloidosis and peritumoral amyloidosis with lymphoma. We report a rare case of peritumoral amyloidosis in a patient with head and neck mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma. On CT, the oropharyngeal mass showed an irregularly shaped soft-tissue density with multifocal amorphous calcifications and heterogeneous enhancement. On MRI, the mass showed heterogeneous low signal intensity on both T1- and T2-weighted images. On contrast-enhanced MR images, the mass showed good enhancement with several inner non-enhancing foci. Concurrent pathologies, such as peritumoral amyloidosis, should be considered when calcifications are noted in patients with pre-treatment lymphoma.

Statement of problem: Peri-implant marginal bone loss is an important factor that affects the success of implants in esthetics and function. Various efforts have been made to reduce this bone loss by improving implant design and surface texture. Previous studies have shown that early marginal bone loss is affected by implant neck designs. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of laser microtexturing of implant collar on peri-implant marginal bone loss. Materials and methods: Radiographical marginal bone loss was examined in patients treated with implant-supported fixed partial dentures. Marginal bone level was examined with 101 implant fixtures installed in 53 patients at three periods(at the time of implantation, prosthetic treatment and 6-month after loading). Four types of implants were examined. The differences of bone loss between implants(ITI standard) with enough biologic width and implants(ITI esthetic plus, Silhouette IC, Silhouette IC Laser-$Lok^{TM}$) with insufficient biologic width have been compared. Resorption angles were examined at the time of prosthetic delivery and 6-month after loading. Results and Conclusion: Within the limitation of this study, the following results were drawn. 1. The marginal bone loss of ITI standard and Silhouette IC Laser-$Lok^{TM}$ was less than that of ITI esthetic plus and Silhouette IC(P<0.05). The marginal bone loss between ITI standard and Silhouette IC Laser-$Lok^{TM}$ had no significant statistical difference(P>0.05). There was no significant statistical difference between marginal bone loss of ITI esthetic plus and Silhouette IC(P>0.05). 2. There was no significant difference in marginal bone loss between maxilla and mandible(P>0.05). 3. There was no significant difference in resorption angle among four types of implants(P>0.05). The marginal bone of implants with supracrestal collar design of less than that of biologic width had resorbed more than those with sufficient collar length. The roughness and laser microtexturing of implant neck seem to affect these results. If an implant with collar length of biologic width, exposure of fixture is a possible complication especially in the anterior regions of dentition that demand high esthetics. Short smooth neck implant are often recommended in these areas which may lack the distance between microgap and the marginal bone level. In these cases, the preservation of marginal bone must be put into consideration. From the result of this study, it may be concluded that laser microtexturing of implant neck is helpful in the preservation of marginal bone.

To control the obstacles surrounding aerodrome is significant for preventing air accident and ensuring the long sustaining of aerodromes. On the other hand, within a scope of ensuring safe flight operations, the application of Shielding is one of the issues to be importantly considered to manage efficiently the obstacles limitation around aerodromes, to dissolute the private asset privilege limitation from regulation on aerodrome circumference, and to decrease the pains to manage the obstacles, in terms of not only operating safely but also utilizing efficiently the airspace around aerodromes. The ICAO and other aviation-advanced states mitigate the construction limitation or exempt the obligation of obstacle sign by applying the shielding theory that the obstacles are not regarded as obstacles where are below the shadow surface. The Republic of Korea inserted the new regulation including the applying shielding similar to ICAO on Aviation Act and regulations. It is, however, hard to manage the aviation obstacles around aerodrome efficiently with these new regulation. Particularly, there exists much rooms to dispute because it cannot suggest the specific standard which is necessary to apply shielding theory at airspace of aerodromes. Therefore, in this study, the international standards on aviation obstacles were reviewed, analyzed and compared with those of domestic status. The direction of which guideline for control of aeronautical obstacles applicable within domestic circumstances as well as correspondent with international standard was suggested. Particularly, as far as the disputable application of shielding theory is concerned, the alternatives for aviation safety and efficient airspace operation by suggesting the clear standards alternatives were suggested.

The M-AUSMPW+ scheme that can capture shock waves exactly with monotonic characteristic is developed by analyzing the cause of oscillation in shock regions. Firstly shock-capturing characteristics of general FVS including the AUSM-type schemes are investigated in detail, according to the different between a cell-interface and a sonic transition position. The cause of oscillation is the improper numerical dissipation that could not represent the real physics. The M-AUSMPW+ could capture shocks exactly without oscillatory behaviors in considering the sonic transition position and an cell-interface position

Low-speed gas flows around a micro-scale flat plate are investigated using a kinetic theory analysis. The Boltzmann equation simplified by a collision model is solved by means of a finite difference approximation with the Discrete Ordinate method. Calculations are made for flows around a 5% flat plate with a finite length of 20 microns. The results are compared with those from the Information Preservation method and a continuum approach with slip boundary conditions. It is shown that three different approaches predict a similar basic flow patterns, while the results from the present method are more accurate than those from the other two methods in details.
