A two-dimensional pulsed doppler system for ultrasonic blood velocity doppler signals is studied and implemented. The second-order sampling method and serial data processing procedures are utillized in the sys- tem, which eliminates the untuning problems at phase channels in the quadrature detection method as well as in the channels of parallel data processing. rho digital signal processor used in this system allows a hardware savings and flexible design options. The efficiency of the various mean frequency estimators in the second-order sampling system is examined by computer simulation as a function of the intersequence sample delay time. The temporal delay for the quadrature component is changed from $1/(4f_o){\;}to{\;}3/(4f_o){\;}and{\;}5/(4f_o)$ where to is the center frequency of the transducer, It is found that autocorrelator is the optimum frequency estimator for the second-order sampling: with !he intersequence sample delay of $1/(4f_o){\;}to{\;}3/(4f_o){\;}and{\;}5/(4f_o)$. The qualitative variation and information proportional to blood velocity in the vessel system are obtained in the VIVO experiments.

We explain the notion of complete system and how it naturally arises from the equivalence problem of G-structures. Then we construct a complete system of 3rd order for the infinitesimal CR automorphisms of CR manifold of nondegenerate Levi form.

This paper is concerned with the limiting zeros, as the sampling period tends to zero, of a multivariable discrete-time system composed of an approximate fractional-order hold (AFROH), a continuous-time plant and a sampler in cascade. An approximate fractional-order hold is proposed to implement fractional-order hold (FROH) and is applied to instead of the zero-order hold (ZOH). The implementing problem of the fractional-order hold is overcome. The properties of the limiting zeros are studied and the location problem of them is solved. In addition, a stability condition of the zeros for sufficiently small sampling period is derived ...

Recently, as a result of the application of large and multi-blade propellers with high efficiency for large vessels, the vertical bending stiffness of propulsion shafting system tends to be declined. For some specific vessels, the shaft arrangement leads to the forward stern tube bearing to be omitted, decreasing vertical bending stiffness. In this respect, decreased vertical bending stiffness causes the problem which is the blade order resonance frequency to be placed within the operational rpm range of propulsion shafting system. To verify whirling vibration, the measurement should be carried out covering from operating rpm up to target rpm, however, the range is un-measurable generally. In order to resolve the measurement issue, this study shows the measuring method and the assessment method of relevant natural frequency of whiling vibration by using measured harmonic order component of whirling vibration.

This paper presents the effects of the time delay on the stability of the haptic system that includes a virtual wall and a first-order-hold method. The model of a haptic system includes a haptic device model with a mass and a damper, a virtual wall model, a first-order-hold model and a time delay model. In this paper, the time delay is considered as the computational time delay that is assumed to be as much as the sampling time. As the time delay increases, the maximal available stiffness of a virtual wall model is reduced reversely. The relation among the time delay and the maximum available stiffness, the mass and the damper of the haptic device are analyzed using the MATLAB simulation.

This paper analyzes the multi-item order-level system with shortages allowance and storage limitation. Up to now, we have used the classical optimization theory to analyze this system. But the theory is generally not suitable for computational purposes. Therefore, this paper designes a new method to be able to apply the quadratic programming to the multi-item order-level system with storage limitation. A numerical example is also presented.

Due to environmental change in market, delivery satisfaction to customer end redaction of LeadTime are critical In the Make-to-Order manufacturing system. This paper focuses on Order Feasibility Decision System Based on SNS System. We suggest BOP (Bill of Process) in which aggregated information is used When the load p1anning problem is solved while more detailed information is used when the scheduling problem is solved.

This study shows the effect of inventory policy change from supplier-based to customer-based. We focus on the service level, cost, and information distortion of the Military Supply Chain(MSC) with System Dynamics. We design MSC model according to field practician interviews by using Vensim. The simulation makes a comparison between supply-based inventory policy performances and order-based inventory policy performances. In order to evaluate the MSC performances, we measure the accumulation of backlog(service level), supply chain cost, and order percentage overshoot(information distortion). The results show that 1) changing inventory policy from supplier-based to end customer order-based gets a good customer service, reduces MSC cost, and prevents information distortion, 2) changing inventory policy from supplier-based to immediate customer order-based reduces a small amount of MSC cost and deteriorates customer service, and 3) supply level is main factor for MSC performances improvement. This study implicates the policy change makes a improvement of MSC performance without introducing information system.

Ultrasonic Doppler systems for the purpose of estimating blood flow velocity, blood flow volume, and flow imaging are commonly used due to advantages of non-invasive and real time observation. Specially, the technical developments of color flow mapping (2-D Doppler) systems have made a relatively rapid progress. However, the 2-D Doppler systems have several problems, such as the range ambiguity, low signal to noise ratio, and slow frame rate. The slow frame rate problem is resolved by using the spatial average which is a method to acquire more data samples for mean frequency estimation. In this paper, spatial average method using the 2nd order sampling instead of quadrature sampling is proposed. The experimental results show that the proposed methods have good performance and easy application to the color flow mapping system.

The Long-Term Care Hospital (LTCH) accreditation system was initiated in 2013 in the form of mandatory accreditation system in order to improve patient safety and the quality of medical service at LTCHs. By June 2016, the accredited LTCHs were 76.2%. This research was conducted to review the implementation process in the first cycle and to promote development of the second cycle of LTCH accreditation system. There are some changes which reinforced the accreditation standards, accreditation survey, and public access to accreditation results in order to strengthen patient safety in the first cycle LTCH accreditation system. LTCHs which participated in the accreditation system achieved certain outcomes in respect to patient safety and employee satisfaction. However, there are several urgent problems in placement criteria of night duty health care providers, reinforcement plans in the accreditation system, and incentives for accredited hospitals. In order to solve these problems, the most important thing is to clearly recognize the fact that the healthcare accreditation system is not the means for control and regulate hospitals but a system to induce hospitals to continue to strive for improvements in patient safety and medical service quality. In addition, it is required that LTCHs, accrediting agency and the Ministry of Health and Welfare compromise and cooperate to seek solutions every time issues related to the accreditation system arise.
