In this paper, a new algorithm is proposed for resolving multiple broadband incoherent sources incident on a uniform linear array. The proposed method dose not require any initial estimates for finding the transformation matrix, while the Coherent Signal-Subspace Method(CSM) proposed by Wang and Kaveh requires preliminary estimates of multigroup source location. An effective procedure is derived for finding the enhanced spectral density matrix at the center frequency using signal enhancement approach and then constructing a common signal subspace by selecting a unitary transformation matrix which is obtained via rotation of signal subspace method. The proposed approach is found to provide superior performance relative to that obtained with the CSM method in terms of sample bias of direction-of-arrival estimates.

In this paper, satellite searching and tracking method for the satellite antenna in naval vessels system are proposed. For fast searching satellite, Wide Range Search(WRS) algorithm is proposed where the signal strength of side-lobe is utilized as well as that of main-lobe. Satellite tracking algorithm to stabilize satellite antenna is based on conical-scanning which is accomplished by the use of the sub-reflector located in front of the focus of the reflector. The sub-reflector rotates about a slightly tilted axis by means of a motor and shapes the antenna beam to utilize stabilization. To show the validity of the proposed method, an experimental example is represented.

This study examined the cast quality of small-sized induction motor rotors during the die casting process. Numerical analyses with 3-dimensional half models were performed to investigate the filling patterns of aluminum molten metals into a mold after high-speed injections. The following were obtained from numerical analyses and experimental results. First, molten metals started to fill the lower end ring, then moved horizontally to fill the core slot and upper end ring, and finally stopped to fill the rotor core slot. Second, circulation of molten metals occurred at the lower end ring, resulting considerable porosity at the section of lower end ring from the experimental results. Third, further work for obtaining sound quality of rotor core cast is required to develop a new shape of the rotor core cast or improve the die casting conditions.

This paper deals with the design of the L-band rotary joint, which is a core part of the tracking radar system. The rotary joint is a part that is mounted on the rotating parts of the tracking system antenna, which smoothly transmits RF signals with minimizing signal insertion loss. To improve the insertion loss of rotary joint, 1) dielectric materials, 2) design of distribution ring and 3)dielectric shape are studied. The performance of proposed rotary joint is compared with the conventional product. The prototype rotary joint showed a max insertion loss of 0.68dB, that is improved about 46% compare with conventional product which insertion loss was 1.26dB.

Electrical power distribution is consists of high voltage, low voltage and motor control center(MCC). Motor control centers involves turning the motor on and off, it is configured electronic over current relay to detect a motor overcurrent flows. Existing electronic over current relay detects electrical fault such as overcurrent, undercurrent, phase sequence, negative sequence current, current unbalance and earth fault. However, it is difficult to detect mechanical fault such as locked rotor, motor stator and rotor and bearing fault. In this paper, we propose a condition monitoring and fault diagnosis system for electrical and mechanical fault detection of rotating machinery. The proposed system is designed with signal input and control part, system interface part and data acquisition board for condition monitoring and fault diagnosis, it was possible to detect electrical fault and mechanical fault through measurement and control of insulation resistance, locked rotor, MC counter and bearing temperature.

Delayed treatment of volar dislocation of the distal radioulnar joint can result in wrist pain, limited rotation of the forearm, and degenerative arthritis that could be managed only by salvage procedures. A 24-year-old male patient presented with wrist pain and a loss of forearm rotation after surgery for a radial shaft fracture. The shaft of the radius was fixed with a plate and screws with a volar angulation of 7°. The ulnar head was dislocated volar to the distal radius, and the bone defect in the ulnar head was impacted into the volar rim of the sigmoid notch of the radius, preventing the head from being reduced in the joint. Corrective osteotomy of the malunited radial shaft and sliding osteotomy of the proximal ulnar head were performed to fill the distal bone defect. Pain and range of the forearm rotation were improved at postoperative 19 months.

The bite collapses due to posterior teeth loss or wear results in inadequate space for restoration and esthetic concerns. Increasing the occlusal vertical dimension to improve space deficiency rotates the mandible posteriorly, creating a gap between the maxillary and mandibular anterior teeth, leading to loss of anterior guidance. To solve this problem, the prosthodontics or orthodontics treatments are the commonly used methods for proper anterior guidance. However, it is reasonable to assume that the anterior teeth can naturally relapse to their original position when the occlusal force is eliminated. Therefore, this case report aimed to test whether natural relapse could recover the lost anterior guidance to develop a less invasive and more convenient treatment method. Digital superimposition was used to evaluate the changes in anterior teeth alignment to confirm the change of the recovered anterior guidance. The appropriate indications for this new treatment method were defined and applied clinically.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of head position changes on vertical and horizontal magnification in dental panoramic radiographs. Materials and Methods: Five 4 mm metal balls were placed above alveolar crest of dry skull considering extraction socket and dental arch. Panoramic radiographs were taken by OP-100D (Instrumentarium Imaging Co., Tuusula, Finland) at proper and rotated head position along the sagittal and transverse axis at 3 - $20^{\circ}$ upwardly, downwardly, to the left and to the right rotation. Images were stored in DICOM files and were measured by ruler equipped within INFINITT PACS software. Results: The mean horizontal magnification was $1.22{\pm}0.01-1.44{\pm}0.01$ and mean vertical magnification was $1.29{\pm}0.00-1.35{\pm}0.02$ at standard head position. There was statistical significance of horizontal magnification between the anterior ($1.24{\pm}0.02-1.31{\pm}0.03$) and the posterior area ($1.40{\pm}0.03-1.33{\pm}0.02$) (P < 0.05). Vertical magnification resulted in less variation ($1.24{\pm}0.01-1.37{\pm}0.02$) than horizontal magnification ($0.88{\pm}0.03-3.73{\pm}0.16$) according to the rotation. There was statistical significant difference on horizontal magnification (P < 0.05). Conclusion: In rotated head position, the horizontal magnification should be considered because these can cause distortion on panoramic radiographs.

산지하천의 비율이 높은 국내 하천은 주로 만곡도가 높은 사행하천으로 이루어져 있으며, 만곡부가 교호적으로 나타나는 사행하천의 흐름구조는 매우 복잡하다. 산지하천의 특성상 홍수시에는 유속이 매우 빠르게 나타나며 하천의 수위가 상승하게 될 때 만곡부에서의 흐름 회전 방향이 나선형 흐름으로 바뀌어 하류방향으로 주 흐름에 중첩하여 발생하는 이차류로 인해 하도가 불안정해지고 내 외측의 수위차가 발생하는 편수위가 발생하면서 하도 바깥쪽으로 수위가 상승하는 현상이 나타나게 된다. 따라서 집중호우로 인해 하천에서 발생하는 재해는 주로 만곡부를 중심으로 발생하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 이와 같은 만곡부의 외측부에서 발생하는 수위상승으로 인해 제방의 월류 피해와 이차류로 인한 침식피해를 유발하게 되는 문제를 사전에 예측하기 위하여 $90^{\circ}$ 실험하도와 $180^{\circ}$ Sharp 실험하도에 2차원 유한요소 모형인 RAMS 모형을 적용하여 수리특성을 살펴보았으며, 모의 결과에 대한 정확도를 살펴보기 위해 실측자료와 비교 검토하였다. 이와 같은 연구결과는 만곡부에서 발생가능한 제방침식이나 월류로 인한 하천에서의 피해 방지에 크게 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical results of posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) and posterolateral structure (PLS) reconstruction using bilateral hamstring tendon autografts. Materials and Methods: From October 2002 to March 2004, ten patients were received PCL and PLS reconstruction simultaneously using bilateral hamstring autografts. PCL was reconstructed using ipsilateral hamstring tendon and fixed with cross pins and Intrafix (Mitek, Norwood, MA). PLS was reconstructed using contralateral hamstring tendon. The mean follow up was 17 months. Clinical assessments consisted of Lysholm knee scores, International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) evaluation form and posterior stress radiographs. External rotation of tibia was evaluated at $30^{\circ}\;and\;90^{\circ}$ knee flexion using Noyes and Barber-Westin's classification. Contralateral harvest site morbity was evaluated using IKDC evaluation form and flexion power of the knee. Results: Mean posterior displacement of tibia using stress radiographs was improved from 13.3 mm to 3.7 mm. In tibial external rotation evaluation, 7 patients were functional, 2 patients were partially functional and one failure. The average Lysholm knee score improved from 54 preoperatively to 86 postoperatively. At the final IKDC evaluation, 8 patients were graded as nearly normal, 2 were graded as abnormal. In contralateral harvest site morbidity evaluation, 2 patients complained of numbness around the wound but negligible. Conclusion: PCL and PLS reconstruction using bilateral hamstring autografts was considered as a good treatment method with minimal contralateral harvest site morbidity.
