Purpose To assess the clinicoradiological features of pulmonary cryptococcosis in immunocompetent patients. Materials and Methods This retrospective study included immunocompetent patients who had been diagnosed with pulmonary cryptococcosis on the histopathologic exam and underwent chest CT between January 2008 and November 2019. Imaging features were divided into major imaging patterns, distributions, and ancillary imaging findings. Univariable analysis was performed to evaluate clinicoradiological features according to the presence of serum cryptococcal antigen. Results Thirty-one patients were evaluated (mean age: 60 years, range: 19-78 years). A single nodular lesion confined to a single lobe was the most common imaging pattern (14/31, 45.2%). Serum cryptococcal antigen tests were performed in 19 patients (19/31, 61.3%). The presence of serum cryptococcal antigen was observed in six patients (6/19, 31.6%), all of whom showed a consolidation-dominant pattern. The presence of serum cryptococcal antigen was significantly associated with the consolidationdominant pattern compared to those associated with a nodule-dominant pattern (p = 0.011). Conclusion A combination of CT findings of consolidation and a positive serum cryptococcal antigen test may be helpful for diagnosing pulmonary cryptococcosis in immunocompetent patients.

A modified $C^{*}$ integral as load parameter in creep fracture is proposed considering the effect of crack growth. It is shown that the parameter does not depend on crack velocity. By performing experiment using STS 304 stainless steel at 600.deg.C the validity of the parameter is investigated. The results show that the parameter is a good measure as a load parameter in creep fracture and the rate of crack tip opening displacement can also be a creep load parameter for STS 304 at 600.deg. C.C.

Visual cryptography made it possible to decrypt thresholding scheme with not digital system but human vision system. This method, however, has some limit in it. Optical visual cryptography was proposed which used laser instead of human eyesight. As a result, it was possible to adapt cryptography to optical system. However, it also had some difficulties because it did not overcome the existing problem of visual cryptography completely. These problems occurred in the process of transferring data processing system from visual to optics. Therefore, it is appropriate to approach these problems in terms of optics. This paper analyzes the level of noise and the security characteristics for optical visual cryptography in terms of frequency based on joint transform correlator.

This paper deals with Kripke-style semantics for weakening-free non-commutative fuzzy logics. As an example, we consider an algebraic Kripke-style semantics for an extension of the pseudo-uninorm based fuzzy logic HpsUL, $CnHpsUL^*$. For this, first, we recall the system $CnHpsUL^*$, define its corresponding algebraic structures $CnHpsUL^*$-algebras, and algebraic completeness results for it. We next introduce a Kripke-style semantics for $CnHpsUL^*$, and connect it with algebraic semantics.

암호 화폐가 다양해지면서 암호 화폐를 채굴하는 방법 또한 다양한 방향으로 생겨났다. CyptoNote라는 프로토콜을 이용한 암호 화폐 중 하나인 모네로를 채굴할 때 메모리를 중점적으로 사용하도록 되어 있다. Coinhive는 광고 없이 수익을 내기위한 방법으로 웹브라우저를 이용한 모네로를 채굴하는 API를 만들었다. 하지만 본래의 목적과 다르게 API를 악의적으로 사용하여 웹브라우저 방문자의 동의 없이 채굴하는 공격인 크립토재킹이 증가하게 되었다. 이러한 공격을 막기 위해 브라우저 확장 어플리케이션이 등장하였으나, 공격자는 이를 우회하기 위해 자바스크립트 난독화를 사용하고 있다. 본 논문에서는, 크립토재킹에 대한 연구동향을 분석하고자 한다.

항공기 엔진, 발전 설비, 원자로 등과 같이 고온에서 작동하는 구조물 및 부품은 피로 파괴, 크립 파괴 또는 복합된 크립-피로(creep fatigue) 파괴에 대비하여 설계될 것이 요구된다. 관련 소 재를 살펴보면 항공기 엔진에 많이 사용되는 nickel-based superalloy로부터, land-based turbine rotor 등에 사용되는 low alloy ferritic steel 등으로 다양하다. 이외에도 austenitic stainless steel(Type 300 series)이 원자로에 많이 쓰이고 있다. 따라서 이러한 여러 가지 재료에 대한 고온 피로와 복합된 크립 파괴에 대하여 많은 연구가 진행되어 왔고, 앞으로도 보다 안전한 설 계를 위하여 계속될 전망이다.

This paper deals with non-algebraic Kripke-style semantics for three-valued paraconsistent logic: set-theoretical Kripke-style semantics. We first recall two three-valued paraconsistent systems. We next introduce set-theoretical Kripke-style semantics for them.

This paper deals with Kripke-style semantics, which will be called algebraic Kripke-style semantics, for fuzzy logics based on uninorms (so called uninorm-based logics). First, we recall algebraic semantics for uninorm-based logics. In the general framework of uninorm-based logics, we next introduce various types of general algebraic Kripke-style semantics, and connect them with algebraic semantics. Finally, we analogously consider particular algebraic Kripke-style semantics, and also connect them with algebraic semantics.
