  • The scatter photons and photoneutrons from high energy photon beams (more than 10 MV) will increase the undesired dose to the patient and the staff working in linear accelerator room. This undesired dose which is found at out-of-field area can increase the probability of secondary malignancy. The purpose of this study is to determine the equivalent dose of scatter photons and neutrons generated by 3 different treatment techniques: 3D-conformal, intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT). The measurement was performed using two types of the optically stimulation luminescence detectors (OSL and OSLN) in the Alderson Rando phantom that was irradiated by 3 different treatment techniques following the actual prostate cancer treatment plans. The scatter photon and neutron equivalent dose were compared among the 3 treatments techniques at the surface in the out-of-field area and the critical organs. Maximum equivalent dose of scatter photons and neutrons was found when using the IMRT technique. The scatter neutrons showed average equivalent doses of 0.26, 0.63 and $0.31mSv{\cdot}Gy^{-1}$ at abdominal surface region which was 20 cm from isocenter for 3D, IMRT and VMAT, respectively. The scattered photons equivalent doses were 6.94, 10.17 and $6.56mSv{\cdot}Gy^{-1}$ for 3D, IMRT and VMAT, respectively. For the 5 organ dose measurements, the scattered neutron and photon equivalent doses in out of field from the IMRT plan were highest. The result revealed that the scatter equivalent doses for neutron and photon were higher for IMRT. So the suitable treatment techniques should be selected to benefit the patient and the treatment room staff.

  • 인장하중을 받는 판재의 원형 구멍 주위의 응력분포를 해석하기 위하여 하이브리드 방법을 이용하였다. 하이브리드 법의 입력데이터로 원형구멍 중심으로부터 임의의 거리에 있는 직선상에서 광탄성 위상이 동법으로 측정된 등색 프린지 차수를 사용하였다. 응력장 변화를 살펴보기 위하여 급수형 등각사상 복소수 응력함수에서 항의 수를 달리 할 경우에 대해 시험하였다. 정성적인 비교를 할 수 있도록 실험으로부터 얻은 실제의 등색 프린지 차수를 응력-광 법칙으로 생성된 이론적인 프린지 차수와 비교하였다. 정량적인 비교를 위하여 입력된 모든 지점의 등색프린지 차수와 응력함수로 계산된 프린지 차수의 상대오차의 표준편차를 응력함수의 항의 수에 따라 분석하였다. 하이브리드법 결과는 유한요소법에 의한 계산값에 매우 근접하였다. 본 연구에 적용된 기법은 광탄성 위상이동법을 이용하여 일 직선상의 등색프린지 차수를 간단히 측정할 수 있으므로 활용 가능성이 많을 것으로 예측된다.

  • Objective: To investigate short- and long-term treatment effects and side reactions of lobaplatin plus 5-Fu combined and concurrent radiotherapy in treating patients with inoperable middle-advanced stage esophageal cancer. Methods: Sixty patients with middle-advanced stage esophageal squamous cell cancer were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were administered lobaplatin (50 mg intravenously) for 2 h on day 1, and 5-Fu ($500mg/m^2$) injected intravenously from day 1 to 5 for 1 cycle, in an interval of 21 days for totally 4 cycles. At the same time, late-course accelerated hyperfractionated three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy was performed. Patients were firstly treated with conventional fractionated irradiation (1.8 Gy/d, 5 times/week, a total of 23 treatments, and DT41.4 Gy), and then treated with accelerated hyperfractionated irradiation (1.5 Gy, 2 times/d, a total of 27 Gy in 9 days, an entire course of 6-7 weeks, and DT 68.4Gy). Results: All patients completed treatment, including 10 complete response (CR), 41 partial response (PR), 7 stable disease (SD), and 2 progressive disease (PD). The total effective rate was 85.0% (51/60). Thirty-nine patients had an increased KPS score. One-, 2-, and 3-year survival rates were 85.3%, 57.5%, and 41.7%, respectively. The median survival time was 27 months. The adverse reactions included myelosuppression, which was mainly degree I and II. The occurrence rate of radiation esophagitis was 17.5%. No significant hepatic or renal toxicity was observed. Conclusion: Lobaplatin plus 5-Fu combined with concurrent radiotherapy is safe and effective in treating patients with middle-advanced stage esophageal cancer. However, this result warrants further evaluation by randomized clinical studies.

  • Background: Concurrent chemo-radiotherapy is the recommended standard treatment modality for patients with locally advanced lung cancer. The purpose of three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT) is to minimize normal tissue damage while a high dose can be delivered to the tumor. The most common dose limiting side effect of thoracic RT is radiation pneumonia (RP). In this study we evaluated the relationship between dose-volume histogram parameters and radiation pneumonitis. This study targeted prediction of the possible development of RP and evaluation of the relationship between dose-volume histogram (DVH) parameters and RP in patients undergoing 3DCRT. Materials and Methods: DVHs of 41 lung cancer patients treated with 3DCRT were evaluated with respect to the development of grade ${\geq}2$ RP by excluding gross tumor volume (GTV) and planned target volume (PTV) from total (TL) and ipsilateral (IPSI) lung volume. Results: Were admitted statistically significant for p<0.05. Conclusions: The cut-off values for V5, V13, V20, V30, V45 and the mean dose of TL-GTV; and V13, V20,V30 and the mean dose of TL-PTV were statistically significant for the development of Grade ${\geq}2$ RP. No statistically significant results related to the development of Grade ${\geq}2$ RP were observed for the ipsilateral lung and the evaluation of PTV volume. A controlled and careful evaluation of the dose-volume histograms is important to assess Grade ${\geq}2$ RP development of the lung cancer patients treated with concurrent chemo-radiotherapy. In the light of the obtained data it can be said that RP development may be avoided by the proper analysis of the dose volume histograms and the application of optimal treatment plans.

  • System In Package (SiP) is getting popular and momentum for the recent wearable, IoT and connectivity application apart from mobile phone. This is driven by market demands of cost competitive, lighter and smaller/thinner and higher performance. As one of many semiconducting assembly products, Leadframe product has been widely used for low cost solution, light/ small and thin form factor. But It has not been applied for SiP although Leadframe product has many advantages in cost, size and reliability performance. SiP is mostly based on laminate substrate and technically difficult on Leadframe substrate because of a limitation in SMT performance. In this paper, Leadframe based SiP product has been evaluated about key technical challenges in SMT performance and electrical shield technology. Mostly Leadframe is considered not available to apply EMI shield because of tie-bar around package edge. In order to overcome two major challenges, connection bars were deployed properly for SMT pad to pad and additional back-side etching was implemented after molding process to achieve electrical isolation from outer shield coating. This product was confirmed assembly workability as well as reliability.

  • 선박의 보-유추 진동해석에 있어 2차원 부가수질량의 3차원 효과를 고려하기 위해서 3차원 수정계수(J-factor)를 계산해야 하는데 광폭선의 경우에는 J-factor의 계산이 부정확하고 번거롭다. 이 논문에서는 이를 개선하기 위해 새로운 선박의 보-유추 접수진동해석 방법을 소개하였다. 이 방법은 선박에 접수된 유체에 대해 BEM 기법을 이용하여 3차원 유체력을 직접 계산하고 이를 일정 간격으로 나눈 각 스트립에 집중질량으로 평가한 후에 선체의 보모델과 결합하여 보-유추 진동해석을 수행하는 방법이다. 오픈탑 컨테이너선의 모델에 대해 기존의 보-유추 진동해석방법과 이 논문에서 제시한 새로운 진동해석방법을 이용하여 진동해석을 수행하고 가진 실험에 의한 진동계측결과와 상호 비교함으로써 새로운 방법의 유용성을 검증하였다.

  • Graphene is a monolayer of carbon atoms (approximately 0.34 nm), arranged in a honeycomb network. It has been hailed as a next-generation flexible and transparent material because it has high electrical and thermal conductivities, excellent mechanical properties, as well as flexible and transparent properties. The wettability of graphene alters its adhesion or surface energy, and it is therefore an important parameter influencing its application in the fabrication of next-generation flexible and transparent electronics. Studies on the wettability of graphene are numerous and various opinions exist. However, almost all of these studies use the wet transfer method to transfer the graphene. In this study, therefore, we investigated the effect of wet and dry transfer methods on water contact angles of graphene on a substrate. The contact angles of substrates vary depending on the type of substrate. It was found that after graphene is transferred to the substrate, regardless of transfer method, the graphene/substrate contact angle increases to a value. The contact angle of graphene transferred using the dry transfer method is higher than the contact angle of graphene transferred using wet transfer methods. The wet transferred graphene is affected by the poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) residue and the polar surface of substrate. The dry transferred graphene is influenced by the conformal contact between graphene and substrate.
