The effect of built-in volume ratio of expander on the performance of a two-loop Rankine cycle system for engine waste heat recovery of vehicle has been investigated. In the case of positive displacement expander in the various operating condition of the vehicle, it can operate in both under-expansion and over-expansion conditions. Therefore, the analysis of off-design performance for the expander is very important. Furthermore, the volume and weight of the expander as well as the efficiency must be considered in the optimization of the expander. This study shows that the built-in volume ratio of expander causing under-expansion at a target condition is more desirable considering the off-design performance and size of the expander, based on the simple modeling of off-design operation of the expander.

The numerical algorithm of wrinkling based on Miller and Hedgepeth membrane theory is developed using user material(UMAT) subroutine written by FORTRAN. Wrinkled area and deformed shapes of inflatable membrane structures are investigated by using ABAQUS with UMAT subroutine of wrinkling algorithm.

The expansion behavior of inflatable steel pipe rockbolt shows geometric nonlinearity due to its ${\Omega}-shaped$ section. Previous studies on the anchoring behavior of inflatable steel pipe rockbolt were mainly performed using theoretical method. However, those studies oversimplified the actual behavior by assuming isotropic expansion of inflatable steel pipe rockbolt. In this study, the anchoring behavior of the inflatable steel pipe rockbolt were investigated by the numerical method considering the irregularity of pipe expansion and other influencing factors. The expansion of inflatable steel pipe rockbolt, the contact stress distribution and the change of the average contact stress and the contact area during installation were analyzed. The contact stresses were developed differently depending on the constitutive behavior of rocks. Small contact stresses occurred in steel pipes installed in elasto-plastic rock compared to steel pipes installed in elastic rock. Also, the anchoring behaviors of the inflatable steel pipe rockbolt were different according to the stiffness of the rock. The steel pipe was completely unfolded in the case of the stiffness smaller than 0.5 GPa, but it was not fully unfolded in the case of the stiffness larger than 0.5 GPa for the given analysis condition. When the steel pipe is completely unfolded, the contact stress increases as the rock stiffness increases. However, the contact stress decreases as the rock stiffness increases when the steel pipe is not fully expanded.

폐암의 변이 형태는 크게 침륜형과 팽창형의 두 가지로 나눌 수 있는데, 팽창형은 암의 크기가 크고 성장속도는 느린 특징을 가지고 있으며, 침륜형은 암의 크기가 작고 성장 속도는 빠르며 괴사 부분이 많고 경계선이 불규칙적인 특성을 가지고 있다. 본 논문은 병리 전문가의 이와 같은 시각적인 진단요소를 폐암 변이 분석을 위한 영상의 특성으로 추출하여, 형태학적 특성과 절감특성으로 분석한 후 의료 영상에 대한 진단을 전문가의 진단 견해와 비교해 보았다. 의료 영상에 대한 진단은 영상의 특성과 함께 전문가의 진단 기준에 대한 특성을 최대한 반영하는 특성에 의한 것이어야 할 것이다.

In this study, performances of the vane expander protype for micro organic Rankine cycle with refrigerant R134a as a working fluid have been analyzed. While operating organic Rankine cycle for analysing expander efficiencies such as overall efficiencies, volumetric efficiencies and mechanical efficiencies under $110^{\circ}C$ of expander inlet temperature, the power of the expander, inlet temperature of expander, inlet pressure of expander and the flow rate of the working fluid(refrigerant R134a) have been measured while varying the rotational speed of the expander. It was found that the more the expander revolution speed is high, the more the expander power, overall efficiencies and volumetric efficiencies are higher. In case of 500 rpm of rotational speed, overall efficiencies are 6~7% and in case of 1000 rpm, overall efficiencies are 11~12%. We have found that low volumetric efficiencies result in poor overall efficiencies.

An expander of an organic Rankine cycle is an essential component that significantly influences its entire performance and cycle efficiency. The inlet pressure and temperature of the expander used for the organic Rankine cycle are limited by the expander's mechanical properties and the characteristics of the working fluid. The organic Rankine cycle's output, heat absorption, and efficiency are altered by the inlet pressure and temperature of the expander. In this study, a theoretical comparative analysis was conducted on an organic Rankine cycle's performance changes, which are dependent on the inlet condition of the expander. The working fluid is an R134a refrigerant, and the expander is a positive-displacement type.

영상레이더 (SAR: Synthetic Aperture Radar) 혹은 통신 안테나/탑재체를 장착한 위성은 원하는 주파수 대역의 운용을 위해 대형 안테나 구조물 장착이 필수적이다. 이러한 대형 구조물은 일체형으로 제작되어 위성체에 접속되었을 때, 요구 무게 및 점유하는 부피가 매우 큰 특징을 지닌다. 따라서, 대형 안테나 구조물의 중량으로 인해 발사비 증가가 불가피하며, 페어링 내부의 허용된 공간에 안테나 크기는 큰 제약적 요인이 된다. 그리고, 전개식이어도, 전개후 질량 관성이 큰 구조물이 된다. 위성체의 발사 비용과 직결되는 안테나의 경량화를 위한 많은 기술이 연구되고 있다. 특히, 접이식 팽창형 안테나는 반사체의 유연한 메쉬 구조 및 경량 지지구조물로 안테나의 무게를 줄이고 수납 효율을 향상시킨다. 또한, 전개 후 안테나의 목적한 기능을 충분히 보장함과 동시에 질량 관성이 작은 구조물에 의한 위성의 기동성을 극대화할 수 있다. 국내에서도 전천후 지상관측감시 및 통신 안테나의 필요성 증대에 따라 초경량 전개형 안테나 개발의 필요성이 크게 대두되고 있으나, 현재까지는 관련 기술개발 사례가 전무한 실정으로 국내 독자적 기술 확보가 시급한 실정이다.

Purpose: The superficial spreading type of early gastric cancer has different clinicopathologic features from other types of early gastric cancer in terms of its invasiveness and lymph-node metastases. Therefore, we attempted to elucidate the pathological features, surgical procedures and patients prognoses. Materials and Methods: Clinical information was reviewed for patients who had undergone a gastrectomy for gastric cancer during an 8-year period ($1995\~2002$) at Dankook University Hospital and Ulsan University, with an average follow-up of 48 months. Three hundred (300) superficial spreading lesions were analyzed with respect to macroscopic type, lymph-node (LN) metastasis, recurrent pattern, survival rate and method of surgical operation. In addition, the clinicopathological features of the superficial spreading type were compared with those of 739 other patients with small-sized cancer. Results: In both groups, the IIc-type macroscopic lesion, the elevated subtype to be more specific, occurred most frequently. There was no significant difference in the method of surgery between the groups. The submucosal invasion was $39.8\%$ in small-sized cancer, and $61.7\%$ in superficial spreading cancer (P=0.005). The incidence of LN metastasis was $11.3\%$ in early gastric cancer, $7.8\%$ in small-sized cancer and $20.0\%$ in superficial spreading cancer (P=0.005). The incidence of lymphatic invasion was $4.6\%$ in small-sized cancer and $13.0\%$ in superficial spreading cancer (P=0.009). The incidence of recurrence was $1.4\%$ in small-sized cancer and $3.6\%$ in superficial spreading cancer. The overall 5-year survival rate was $84.8\%$ in superficial spreading cancer and $93.0\%$ in small-sized cancer (P=0.052). The 5-year diseasefree survival rate was $94.7\%$ in superficial spreading cancer and $87.5\%$ in small-sized cancer (P=0.053). Conclusion: The superficial spreading type of early gastric cancer tends to be more invasive and to show a higher incidence of lymph-node metastasis than small-sized early gastric cancer. A wide resection with extensive lymph-node dissection seems to be an appropriate treatment for a superficial spreading type of early gastric cancer.
