We have investigated that a couple of soft ferrite ceramic powders having a spinal structure have shown the effect on growth and secondary metabolites production of some medicinal plants cultured in vitro. The addition of the ceramic powders as bare state to culture medium has stimulated the growth of Achyranthes japonica callus and plantlet, adventitious root of Hyoscyamus niger and Platycodon grandiflorum hairy root about 65, 75, 150 and 50%, respectively. Whereas Centella asiatica callus and plantlet, Scopolia parviflora hairy root, and Hyoscyamus albus adventitious root were not affected markedly. Moreover, the ceramic powder has enhanced the growth of H. niger adventitious roots even under conditions of irradiating alone without any direct contact between ceramic powder and media. Based on growth stimulation effect, the ceramic powders have enhanced the gross production of tropane alkaloid in H. niger adventitious root, and polyacetylene in P. grandiflorum hairy root about 35 and 30%, respectively.

A 30-year-old man with morbid obesity (height: 176 cm, body weight: 100 kg, body mass index: 32.28) was scheduled for reconstruction of the mandibular fracture. During induction of general anesthesia and nasotracheal intubation, we experienced massive epistaxis, hypoxemia and difficult airway management. Fortunately, we performed oro-tracheal intubation with direct laryngoscopy and it barely succeeded. He recovered without any residual complications and rescheduled seven days later and we successfully performed awake fiberoptic nasotracheal intubation. The patient discharged on the fourth postoperative day.

In this paper we present 3-D Navigation View, a three-dimensional visualization of indoor environment which serves as an intuitive and unified user interface for our developed indoor location tracking system via Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML) in web environment. The extracted user's spatial information from indoor location tracking system was further processed to facilitate the location indication in virtual 3-D indoor environment based on his location in physical world. External Authoring Interface (EAI) provided by VRML enables the integration of interactive 3-D graphics into web and direct communication with the encapsulated Java applet to update position and viewpoint of user periodically in 3-D indoor environment. As any web browser with VRML viewer plug-in is able to run the platform independent 3-D Navigation View, specialized and expensive hardware or software can be disregarded.

Due to criminal aspects spreading nation wide, their intelligence level increasing and becoming digitalized, the citizens' interest in and desire for crime security have increased. Until now, the preceding researches have been focused on finding the specific variables that have direct effects on the demand for police manpower through regression analysis and attempted to predict number of needs. However, there have never been any researches producing the accurate number of demands for crimes and human resources needed for each work load. Therefore, this research have analyzed each police station functions by interviewing the persons in charge and selected the main duty for each functions. From this, by using the method of system dynamics, this research was able to predict the standard number of manpower needed for each police station functions. Also, by making a model for each 235 police stations, the best efficient employment plan for police stations and district agencies have been further discussed based on the computer simulation results.

This paper proposes a new method for the inverse problem of the three-dimensional reconstruction of the electrical activity of the brain from electroencephalography (EEG). Compared to conventional direct methods using additional parameters, the proposed approach solves the EEG inverse problem iteratively without any parameter. We describe the Lagrangian corresponding to the minimization problem and suggest the numerical inverse algorithm. The restriction of influence space and the lead field matrix reduce the computational cost in this approach. The reconstructed divergence of primary current converges to a reasonable distribution for three dimensional sphere head model.

GHz에서 동작하는 초미세 MOSFET의 BSIM3 MOSFET 모델에 연결하여 사용할 수 있는 기판 회로망 모델과 그에 따른 물리적 의미를 가지는 직접 파라미터 추출법이 제안되었다. 제안된 기판 회로망에는 관례적인 저항과 링-형태의 기판콘택에 의해 생성된 단일의 인덕터가 포함되었다. 모델 파라미터는 최적화 과정 없이 단절된 게이트와 공통-벌크 구성을 갖는 MOS 트랜지스터에서 측정된 S-파라미터로부터 추출되었다. 제안된 모델링 기술은 다양한 크기의 MOS 트랜지스터에 적용되었고, 30GHz까지 그 타당성이 검증되었다.

Jaundice is common in breast-fed infants. Any infant noted to be jaundiced at 2 weeks of age need to be evaluated for cholestasis with measurement of total and direct serum bilirubin. The most common causes of cholestatic jaundice in infants are biliary atresia and neonatal hepatitis. Genetic causes of the neonatal hepatitis syndrome are increasingly recognized and idiopathic neonatal hepatitis is decreasing. Cholestasis should be investigated using a structured protocol. Early detection and timely, accurate diagnosis is important for successful treatment and a favorable prognosis. In particular, a Kasai portoenterostomy for biliary atresia has the best outcome if performed before the infant is 8 weeks of age. The management of cholestasis is mainly supportive, including nutritional support and alleviation of symptoms to improve the quality of life. Specific treatments are available for some causes of neonatal hepatitis syndrome and should be started as soon as possible. For decompensated liver disease, liver transplantation yields a better outcome.

Despite the increasing need of nanometer-scale accuracy in abrasive machining using ultrasmall particles such as abrasive jet and chemical mechanical polishing(CMP), the process mechanism is still unknown. Based on the background, research on the effects of various process parameters on the machined surface at abrasive machining was motivated and performed by using finite element analysis where the effect of slurry fluid flow involved. The effect of particle shape on the machined surface during particle-surface collision was discussed in this paper. The results from FEA simulation revealed that any damage or defect generation on machined surface by the impact may occur only if the particle has enough impact energy. Therefore, it could be concluded that generation of the defects and damage on the wafer surface after CMP process was mainly due to direct contact of the 3 bodies, i.e., pad-particle-wafer.

Total anomalous pulmonary venous return is a cardiac malformation in which there is no direct connection between any pulmonary vein and the left atrium but, rather all the pulmonary veins connect to the right atrium or one of its tributaries. TAPVC is a relatively uncommon anomaly, accounting for only about 1.5-3% of cases of congenital heart disease. Recently improvement in intraoperative techniques did eventually bring substantial improvements in the results in infants. 4 cases of TAPVC was successfully treated with one-stage operation, in the Dept. of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, National Medical Center in which 2 cases are supracardiac types and the other 2 cases are cardiac types. Sex ratio was 1:1, and the range of age was 2 years-18 years. The common pulmonary venous sinus was connected to the left vertical vein and innominate vein: in 2 supracardiac types and coronary sinus in 2 cardiac types. All cases are operated with standard cardiopulmonary bypass, and the hospital mortality was 0%.

This paper proposes a compliance control strategy for the robot manipulators accidentally interact-ing with an unknown environment. In this proposed method each in the diagonal stiffness matrix corre-sponding to the task coordinate in a Cartesian space is adaptively adjusted during contact along the corresponding axis based on the contact force with its environment. This method can be used for both unconstrained and constrained motions without any switching mechanism which often causes undesirable instability and/or vibrational motion of the end-effector. The experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed method by employing a two link direct drive manipulator interacting with an unknown environment.
