Untethered nodes in mobile ad-hoc networks strongly depend on the efficient use of their batteries. In this paper, we propose a new metric, the drain rate, to forecast the lifetime of nodes according to current traffic conditions. This metric is combined with the value of the remaining battery capacity to determine which nodes can be part of an active route. We describe new route selection mechanisms for MANET routing protocols, which we call the Minimum Drain Rate (MDR) and the Conditional Minimum Drain Rate (CMDR). MDR extends nodal battery life and the duration of paths, while CMDR also minimizes the total transmission power consumed per packet. Using the ns-2 simulator and the dynamic source routing (DSR) protocol, we compare MDR and CMDR against prior proposals for power-aware routing and show that using the drain rate for power-aware route selection offers superior performance results.

This study aims to analyze the accuracy of rover speed change in route surveying using RTK-GPS. Route surveying methods using GPS contain Static, DGPS, and RTK-GPS. Much research of navigation system, positioning of vehicles by DGPS, and accuracy analysis by GPS surveying have already been done. From this study, it is firstly found that DGPS is suitable for car navigation and sea navigation with an error of meter scale but not good for detailed construction, designing maps and updating GIS databases. Secondly, RTK-GPS can be used for managing gas pipes, water supply and drain pipes and fiber-optic cable that are needed to be controlled in a real time basis. Thirdly, since the accuracies of route surveying by RTK-GPS and DGPS are not correctly matched with the change of rover speed, the choice of route surveying method from those two should follow the need of accuracy fidelity Further study should focus on Cycle Slip problem and coordinate change problem in tunnel and mountainous areas.

파랑에너지를 차단하고 항내 정온을 확보하기 위해 설치된 외곽시설인 방파제는 불투과성이기 때문에 항만을 폐쇄성으로 만들 수 있으며, 외간의 해수교환은 급격히 감소될 수 있다. 항만개발의 최근 추세는 항내의 수질 보호와 친수성이 강조되어, 기존의 불투과성 방파제의 일부에 투과성으로 설계한 제체투과성 해수교환방파제를 설치하여 외해의 에너지가 항내로 전달되어 항내 오염물질의 희석률 증대와 함께 외해로 배출되도록 하고 있다. 오염이 심화된 항만에서 항내 수질을 개선하기 위한 방안은 육상오염원을 제거하는 것이 최선이나, 폐쇄성이 큰 항만의 경우, 외해와의 해수순환을 강화시켜야만 한다. 즉, 기존의 항만에서의 항내 수질개선을 위해서 외곽시설의 일부에 해수소통구를 두는 방법이 가장 최선이라 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 항내 오염이 심각한 항만을 대상으로 하여, 해수소통구를 통한 해수순환 양상을 검토하고 수반되는 해수교환을 검토하고자 한다. 이를 위해 해수유동 및 오염확산 수치모델을 구축하고 대안에 따른 항내의 해수순환 및 해수교환을 평가하였다.

파랑에너지를 차단하고 항내 정온을 확보하기 위해 설치된 외곽시설인 방파제는 불투과성이기 때문에 항만을 폐쇄성으로 만들 수 있으며, 항내ㆍ외간의 해수교환은 급격히 감소될 수 있다. 항만개발의 최근 추세는 항내의 수질 보호와 친수성이 강조되어, 기존의 불투과성 방파제의 일부에 투과성으로 설계한 제체투과성 해수교환방파제를 설치하는 것으로 나타났다. 이 경우 외해의 에너지가 항내로 전달되어 항내 오염물질의 희석률 증대와 함께 외해로 배출되도록 하고 있다. 오염이 심화된 항만(남해 동부해안에 위치한 삼천포 구항)에서 항내 수질을 개선하기 위한 방안은 육상오염원을 제거하는 것이 최선이나, 폐쇄성이 큰 항만의 경우, 외해와의 해수순환을 강화시켜야만 한다. 즉, 기존의 항만에서의 항내 수질개선을 위해서 외곽시설의 일부에 해수소통구를 두는 방법이 가장 최선이라 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 항내 오염이 심각한 항만을 대상으로 하여, 해수소통구를 통한 해수순환 양상을 수치계산을 통해 검토하고 수반되는 해수교환율을 검토하였다. 본 연구에서는 유한 차분법으로 수치모델을 구성하였으며, 해수소통구 도입에 따른 항내의 해수순환 및 해수교환율을 평가하였다.

Solution-processed metal-alloy oxides such as indium zinc oxide (IZO), indium gallium zinc oxide (IGZO) has been extensively researched due to their high electron mobility, environmental stability, optical transparency, and solution-processibility. In spite of their excellent material properties, however, there remains a challenging problem for utilizing IZO or IGZO in electronic devices: the supply shortage of indium (In). The cost of indium is high, what is more, indium is becoming more expensive and scarce and thus strategically important. Therefore, developing an alternative route to improve carrier mobility of solution-processable ZnO is critical and essential. Here, we introduce a simple route to achieve high-performance and low-temperature solution-processed ZnO thin film transistors (TFTs) by employing alkali-metal doping such as Li, Na, K or Rb. Li-doped ZnO TFTs exhibited excellent device performance with a field-effect mobility of $7.3cm^2{\cdot}V-1{\cdot}s-1$ and an on/off current ratio of more than 107. Also, in case of higher drain voltage operation (VD=60V), the field effect mobility increased up to $11.45cm^2{\cdot}V-1{\cdot}s-1$. These all alkali metal doped ZnO TFTs were fabricated at maximum process temperature as low as $300^{\circ}C$. Moreover, low-voltage operating ZnO TFTs was fabricated with the ion gel gate dielectrics. The ultra high capacitance of the ion gel gate dielectrics allowed high on-current operation at low voltage. These devices also showed excellent operational stability.

Delayed cardiac tamponade in an uncommon and frequently fatal complication after open-heart surgery. We had been experienced two cases of delayed cardiac tamponade as a complication of open-heart surgery and treated successfully by reinsertion of pericardial drain through subxiphoid route. First case was 60 years old female patient and underwent MVR under impression of MSi + Ti Second case was 19 years old male patient and underwent total correction of T.O.F.with Blalock shunt [Lt]. Both cases had Initial symptoms, which were epigastric pain, chest tightness, dropped blood pressure, and increased pulse rate and respiratory rate, mimic as low cardiac output syndrome after open-heart surgery. Roentgenogram of the chest showed a rapid increased cardiothoracic ratio. It is important to realize the presence of late cardiac tamponade for proper diagnosis of complication after open-heart surgery.

Background Among breast reconstruction methods, implant-based breast reconstruction has become the mainstream. However, periprosthetic infection is still an unresolved problem. Although published articles have revealed that limited use of antibiotics is sufficient to reduce infection rates, the number of surgeons still preferring elongated usage of antibiotics is not less. The aim of our study is to validate the appropriate duration of antibiotic use to reduce infection rate after implant-based breast reconstruction. Methods A retrospective study reviewed medical record of 235 patients (274 implants for reconstruction) who underwent prepectoral direct to implant breast reconstruction using acellular dermal matrix wrapping technique. Infection rates were analyzed for the patients administered postoperative prophylactic antibiotics until drain removal and those who received only perioperative prophylactic antibiotics for 24 hours. Results Of the 274 implants, 98 who were administered prophylactic antibiotics until drain removal had an infection rate of 3.06% (three implants) and 176 who received prophylactic antibiotics no longer than 24 hours postoperatively had an infection rate of 4.49% (eight implants). A total of 11 patients diagnosed with postoperative infection clinically, 8 were salvaged by antibiotic treatment, and 3 had implant removal and replacement with autologous flap. Postoperative antibiotic prophylaxis duration had no statistically significant effects in the risk of infection (p = 0.549). Conclusion The duration of prophylactic antibiotics after surgery was not related to infection risk. Further study with a large number of patients, randomized control study, and route of antibiotics is needed.

A simple route of external mechanical force is presented for enhancing the electrical properties of polymer nanocomposite consisted of nanowires. By dispersing ZnO nanowires in polymer solution and drop casting on substrates, nanocomposite transistors containing ZnO nanowires are successfully fabricated. Even though the ZnO nanowires density is properly controlled for device fabrication, as-cast device doesn't show any detectable currents, because nanowires are separated far from each other with the insulating polymer matrix intervening between them. Compared to the device pressed at 300 kPa, the device pressed at 600 kPa currents increased by 50times showing the linear behavior against drain voltage and exhibits promising electrical properties, which operates in the depletion mode with higher mobility and on-current. Such an improved device performance would be realized by the contacts improvement and the increase of the number of electrical path induced by external force. This approach provides a viable solution for serious contact resistance problem of nanocomposite materials and promises for future manufacturing of high-performance devices.

무선 센서 네트워크는 제한된 자원과 무선 통신 사용으로 공격자에게 취약하기 때문에 공격자는 쉽게 노드를 훼손할 수 있고 허위 보고서 주입 공격과 같은 다양한 공격을 시도한다. 허위 보고서 주입 공격은 허위 보고서를 전달하는 과정에서 발생하는 에너지 고갈과 기지 노드에 허위 알람을 일으켜 금전적 손실을 발생시킨다. 이 문제를 다루기 위한 기존 기법 중 하나인 동적 여과 기법은 허위 보고서를 탐지함으로써 에너지를 절약할 수 있다. 동적 여과 기법의 키 분배 단계는 공격이 발생한 소스 노드 근처의 노드가 허위 보고서를 탐지할 수 있는 키를 갖지 못할 수 있다. 따라서 지속적인 공격에 노출될 경우 불필요한 에너지 손실이 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제를 개선하기 위해 키 재분배 기법을 제안한다. 제안 기법은 초기에 분배된 비밀 키를 사용하여 빠른 허위 보고서 탐지를 통해 에너지를 절약한다. 실험 결과는 기존 기법과 비교하였을 때 최대 26.63% 에너지 절약과 최대 15.92%의 탐지 성능 향상을 보인다.
