목적 : 이 연구의 목적은 SPECT 영상의 감쇠와 산란 현상을 보정하고 실제 임상 환경에서 상용하는 영상과 비교하여 그 효과를 평가하는 것이다. 그리고, 정확도가 개선된 영상에서 방사능양을 도출하여 SPECT 영상의 절대적인 정량화를 검증하는 것이다. 대상 및 방법: 직경이 20.0 cm인 원통형 팬톰에 삽입물로써 체적 25 ml의 폴리에틸렌 병을 6개 배치하고 배후와 다양한 비율을 이루도록 Tc-99m을 주입하였다. SPECT 기기로는 Trionix Triad xlt 20을 사용하였고 광피크 윈도 $126{\sim}154keV$, 산란 윈도 $101{\sim}123keV$에서 데이터를 얻었다. 이중에너지윈도(DEW) 방법과 Chang 방법을 사용하여 산란 및 감쇠 효과를 보정한 영상(SC+AC), 임상적으로 통용되고 있는 Chang 방법만을 사용하여 감쇠 효과를 보정한 영상(AC), 보정을 거치지 않은 영상(NONE)을 얻었다. SPECT 영상을 정량적으로 분석하기 위해 삽입물 대 배후의 방사능비(T/B), 영상대비, 절대방사능을 구하여 참값과 비교하였다. 결과: 관심영역 분석을 통한 T/B는 참값에 대하여 SC+AC 영상은 $1{\sim}20%$의 차이를 보였고 AC의 $24{\sim}37%$와 NONE의 $12{\sim}32%$에 비하여 개선되었다. 또한 SC+AC에서 영상 대비는 참값 1에 대하여 0.92로써 AC의 0.77, NONE의 0,80에 비하여 향상되었다. SPECT 영상에서 얻은 절대방사능 값은 SC+AC 영상이 참값에 대하여 $1{\sim}11%$의 오차를 나타냈으나, AC의 $22{\sim}47%$, NONE의 $2{\sim}16%$에 비하여 정확하였다. 그리고 대상물이 10.0 cm의 심부에 있을 때 절대방사능 값은 SC+AC에서 24%의 감소, AC에서 10%의 증가, NONE에서 40%의 감소를 보였다. 결론: 이 연구에서 사용한 DEW와 Chang방법에 의한 산란 및 감쇠 보정은 임상에 쉽게 적용할 수 있으며, 삽입물 대 배후의 방사능비와 영상 대비를 개선하였고 절대방사능을 정확하게 산출할 수 있었다.

Recently, Plasma Display Panel(PDP) has been in the spotlight as one of the next generation flat-panel-display device. However, it has several drawbacks like the low contrast ratio and the low luminance. In this study, a new address waveform is suggested to improve the priming effect and contrast ratio at the address period in the Address Display period Separated(ADS) method. We modified waveform, instead of a conventional waveform, to an address period, for operating on the Plasma Display Panels, which used the conventional gas [He-Ne-Xe〕. When the ramp pulse is added to the address period at the sustain electrode, it is improved on the priming effect and contrast ratio.

Steam reforming and catalytic reforming of $CH_4$ conversion to produce synthesis gas require both high temperatures and high pressure. Non-thermal plasma is considered to be a promising technology for the hydrogen rich gas production from methane. In this study, three phase AC GlidArc plasma system was employed to investigate the effects of gas composition, gas flow rate, catalyst reactor temperature and applied electric power on the $CH_4$ and $H_2$ yield and the product distribution. The studied system consisted of three electrode and it connected AC generate power system different voltages. In this study, air was used for the partial oxidation of methane. The results showed that increasing gas flow rate, catalyst reactor temperature, or electric power enhanced $CH_4$ conversion and $H_2$ concentration. The reference conditions were found at a $O_2$/C molar ratio of 0.45, a feed flow rate of 4.9 ${\ell}$/min, and input power of 1kW for the maximum conversions of $CH_4$ with a high selectivity of $H_2$ and a low reactor energy density.

Both ratio error and phase angle error in voltage transformer(VT) depend on values of burden of VT used. A method of evaluation for linearity of ratio error and phase angle error in VT measurement equipment have been developed using the standard resistance burdens, with negligible AC-DC resistance difference less than $10^-6$. These burden consists of five standard resistors, with nominal resistance of 100 $\Omega$, 1 k$\Omega$, 10 k$\Omega$, 100 k$\Omega$, and 1 M$\Omega$. The developed method has been applied in VT measurement equipment of industry and the validity of the developed method has been verified by showing the consistency of the result of linearity obtained using VT with wide ratio error.

We conducted a numerical study of AC-electroosmotic (alternating current) effect on the fluid flow and mixing in a 3-D microchannel. The microchannel used as an efficient micro-mixer is composed of a channel and a series of pairs of electrodes attached in zigzag pattern on the bottom wall. The AC electric field is applied to the electrodes so that a steady flow current takes place around the electrodes. This current is flowing across the channel and thus contributing to the mixing of the fluid within the channel. We performed numerical simulations by using a commercial code to obtain a steady flow field. This steady flow is then used in evaluation of the mixing performance via the concept of mixing index. It was found that good combination of two kinds of electrode, which gave us a good mixing, is not simple harmonic. And when the length ratio of these two kinds of electrode is 2:1, we can get the best mixing effect.

In this paper, we propose a high resolution A/D converter for a sensor interface that processes low frequency AC signals. A 6b SAR ADC with low power consumption and a 11b incremental ADC with high resolution are combined together to perform 15b resolution. Conventional hybrid ADC has a disadvantage that it can convert t only DC signal, but in this paper, it is possible to convert data to AC signal by increasing input range of incremental ADC. The decimation filter is implemented on-chip. The designed Hybrid ADC operates at supply voltage of 1.8V and consumes the current of 6.98uA. The OSR (oversampling ratio) is 90. And SFDR, SNDR, ENOB and FoMs are 96.59dB, 88.47dB, 14.4-bit and 139.5dB, respectively.

Metal matrix composites had generated a lot of interest in recent times because of significant in specific properties. It was also highlighted as the materials of frontier industry because strength, heat-resistant, corrosion-resistant, wear-resistant were superiored. In this study the strength properties of $Al_{18}B_4O_{33}/AC4CH$ were represented mixing the binder of $Al_2O_3$ and $TiO_2$. It was also fabricated by squeeze casting. $Al_{18}B_4O_{33}/AC4CH$ was fabricated at the melt temperature of $760^{\circ}C$ the perform temperature of $700^{\circ}C$ and mold temperature of $200^{\circ}C$ under the pressure of 83.4MPa and observed SEM. Fatigue crack growth rate tests on compact tension specimen(half-size) of thickness 12.5mm were conducted by using sinusoidal waveform. Compact tension specimens(half-size) were used and fatigue crack growth rate da/dN and stress intensity factor range ${\Delta}K$ were analyzed concerning to the R value of 0.1 and 0.05. In order to find out the value of ${\Delta}K$, load amplitude constant method was applied by the standard fatigue testing method describes in ASTM E647-95a. As the results of this study, Fatigue crack growth rate increased with in creasing the load ratio, Consequently, At equivalent stress intensity factors, the fatigue crack growth rates in MMC were faster than those of AC4CH alloy. then the fatigue life and the fatigue crack growth rate was investigated using scanning election microscopy(SEM)

Purpose: Generally, adjuvant chemotherapy (AC) should be initiated as soon as possible after surgery to eradicate microscopic cancer cells. In this study, we investigated the effect of early AC on the survival of stage II/III gastric cancer patients. Materials and Methods: Four hundred sixty patients who received AC (S-1 or XELOX) for pathologic stage II/III gastric cancer at Seoul National University Bundang Hospital between January 2008 and December 2014 were included. Patients were divided into 2 groups: early AC administration (within 4 weeks) and late AC administration (more than 4 weeks). Patients in the early AC group (n=174) were matched 1:1 with patients in the late AC group (n=174) by propensity scoring to adjust for clinical differences. Three-year relapse-free survival (RFS) was evaluated according to the timing of AC. Results: Three-year RFS was 98.1% in stage IIA (n=109), 85.0% in stage IIB (n=83), 87.4% in stage IIIA (n=96), 83.5% in stage IIIB (n=91), and 62.5% in stage IIIC (n=81). After propensity score matching, RFS was similar between early and late AC groups (hazard ratio [HR],1.04; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.62-1.74; P=0.889). Pathologic stage and histological type were independent prognostic factors of RFS (HR, 2.05; 95% CI, 1.06-3.96; P=0.033 and HR, 2.61; 95% CI, 1.42-4.80; P=0.002, respectively). Conclusions: Early initiation of AC within 4 weeks does not affect survival rates in stage II/III gastric cancer.

본 연구에서는 전기이중층 커패시터의 전극 활물질로 사용되는 페놀계 활성탄소의 비 정전용량의 증가를 위하여 붕산을 이용하여 표면처리를 수행하였다. 또한, 붕산 처리가 전기화학 특성에 미치는 영향에 대하여 고찰하였다. 활성탄소의 붕산 처리는 활성탄소의 표면에 전기화학적 특성 향상에 도움이 되는 퀴논형 관능기(O=C)의 비율을 효과적으로 증가시켰으며, 비표면적과 총 기공 부피 및 미세공 부피를 증가시켰다. 최적의 조건으로 붕산 처리된 활성탄소는 미처리활성탄소에 비해 비 정전용량이 약 20% 증가하였다. 이러한 결과로부터 활성탄소의 붕산 처리는 활성탄소의 비 정전용량을 효과적으로 증가시킬 수 있다고 사료된다.
