Compression waves propagating in a high-speed railway tunnel develops large pressure fluctuations on the train body or tunnel structures. The pressure fluctuations would cause an ear discomfort for the passengers and increase the aerodynamic resistance of trains. As a fundamental research to resolve the pressure wave phenomenon in the tunnel, experiments were carried out by using a shock tube with an open end. A blockage to model trains inside the tunnel was installed on the lower wall of shock tube, thus forming a sudden cross-sectional area reduction. The compression waves were obtained by the fast opening gate valve instead of a conventional diaphragm of shock tube and measured by the flush mounted pressure transducers with a high sensitivity. The experimental results were compared with the previous theoretical analyses. The results show that the ratio of the reflected to the incident compression wave at the sudden cross-sectional area reduction increases but the ratio of the passing to the incident compression wave decreases, as the incident compression wave becomes stronger. This experimental results are in good agreements with the previous theoretical ones. The maximum pressure gradient of the compression wave abruptly increases but the width of the wave front does not vary, as it passes over the sudden cross-sectional area reduction.

A 44-year-old woman underwent sleeve gastrectomy, which was complicated by a leak. She was treated with two sessions of endoscopic internal drainage using plastic double-pigtail stents. Her clinical evolution was favorable, but four months after the initial stent placement, she became symptomatic, and a gastrobronchial fistula with the proximal end of the stents invading the diaphragm was diagnosed. She was treated with antibiotics, plastic stents were removed, and a partially covered metallic esophageal stent was placed. Eleven weeks later, the esophageal stent was removed with no evidence of fistula. Inappropriate stent size, position, stenting duration, and persistence of low-grade inflammation could explain the patient's symptoms and provide a mechanism for gradual muscle rupture and fistula formation. Although endoscopic internal drainage is usually safe and effective for the management of post-laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy leaks, close clinical and radiological follow-up is mandatory.

This paper describes a study of the influence of a dynamically flexible building structure on pressures inside and net pressures on the roof of low-rise buildings with a dominant opening. It is shown that dynamic interaction between the flexible roof and the internal pressure results in a coupled system that is similar to a two-degree-of-freedom mechanical system consisting of two mass-spring-damper systems with excitation forces acting on both the masses. Two resonant modes are present, the natural frequencies of which can readily be obtained from the model. As observed with quasi-static building flexibility, the effect of increased dynamic flexibility is to reduce the first natural frequency as well as the corresponding peak value of the admittance, the latter being the result of increased damping effects. Consequently, it is found that the internal and net roof pressure fluctuations (RMS coefficients) are also reduced with dynamic flexibility. This model has been validated from experiments conducted using a cylindrical model with a leeward end flexible diaphragm, whereby good match between predicted and measured natural frequencies, and trends in peak admittances and RMS responses with flexibility, were obtained. Furthermore, since significant differences exist between internal and net roof pressure responses obtained from the dynamic flexibility model and those obtained from the quasi-static flexibility model, it is concluded that the quasi-static flexibility assumption may not be applicable to dynamically flexible buildings. Additionally, since sensitivity analyses reveal that the responses are sensitive to both the opening loss coefficient and the roof damping ratio, careful estimates should therefore be made to these parameters first, if predictions from such models are to have significance to real buildings.

충격파관에서 발생하는 충격파는 저압관단으로 전파하며, 관단에서 반사한다. 반사 충격파와 경계층의 간섭으로 반사 충격파에 분지가 발생하게 되고, 분지한 반사 충격파는 접촉면과 간섭하며, shock train이 발생하게 된다. 그러나 충격파관에서 발생하는 shock train 현상에 대한 연구는 미흡한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 2차원 축대칭 충격파관을 사용하여 비정상, 압축성 Navier-Stokes 방정식을 적용한 수치해석을 수행하였으며, shock train의 상세한 특성을 조사하기 위하여, 고정된 압력비에서 충격파관의 길이 및 직경을 변화시켰다.

Pneumatic total artificial heart[TAH] has been clinically applied for the purpose of permanent or temporary use followed by cardiac transplantation in the patients with end stage heart diseases. In spite of the good durability of the pneumatic TAH, thrombus formation, bleeding and infection resulted in death. The Tomasu heart, which is a type of pneumatic TAH, was used in this study. This model is a modified Jarvik heart and consists of atrial cuffs, outflow vascular grafts and thin-layer seamless diaphragm type of ventricles. Cardiac outputs of the left artificial heart were measured by Donovan`s mock circulation under variable conditions of driving parameters, and an experimental artificial heart implantation was performed in 4 calves to observe the changes of hemodynamic parameters in early postoperative period and hematologic and bio-chemical changes in a long-term survival case. In the mock circulation test, cardiac output of the heart was increased with the increase of the left atrial pressure and left driving pressure. Maximum cardiac output was obtained at the heart rate of 120 to 130/min and percent systole of 40 to 45Zo under the condition of a constant left driving pressure of 180mmHg and left atrial pressure of 10mmHg. During the first 24 hours of TAH pumping, driving pressure ranged from 178$\pm$5mmHg to 187$\pm$8mmHg for the left heart and from 58$\pm$6mmHg to 78$\pm$28mmHg for the right heart. The Mean arterial pressure significantly increased between 2 and 8 hours after the start of pumping. The survival time ranged from 27 hours to 46 days. The causes of death were respiratory failure in 2 cases, mechanical valve failure in one, and left ventricular outflow obstruction due to thrombus in a 46-day survival case. This study demonstrated that Tomasu artificial heart operated effectively during the first 24 hours of artificial heart pumping, but thrombus formation around the valve holding area was the main problem in long-term survival case.

In spite of great advances in surgical treatment during past several decades, surgery of the trachea failed to develop correspondingly, partly because of relative rarity of the tracheal lesions and partly because of difficulties in surgical technique and anesthesia. Surgical diseases of the trachea are largely obstructions due to neoplasm or cicatrical stenosis and tracheal malacia. The present treatment of respiratory failure, using cuffed endotracheal and tracheostomy tubes, has produced, apparently with increasing frequency, tracheal stenosis, tracheomalized tracheal erosion. Surgery is presently the only reasonable way to treat stenotic lesions of the tracheobronchial tree. In the case of tumors, the current trend has been that of radical excision. Primary end-to--end reconstruction of the trachea has been generally recognized as the ideal method of repair following resection. However, for decades it was believed that a maximum of four tracheal rings only might be excised and primary healing achieved with safety. A great variety of procedures, developed by numerous investigations and directed at tracheal substitution, have almost invariably met with discouraging results. A meticulous study done by Grillo and associates on autopsy specimens has shown that an average 6.4cm of mediastinal trachea can be safely resected by full mobilization of the right lung and transplantation of the left main bronchus into the bronchus intermedius. Recently, we experienced a case of successful resection of a tumor of the tracheal carina and primary tracheo-left main bronchial anastomosis at the Department of Thoracic & Cardiovascular Surgery, the National Medical Center in Seoul. The patient, a 29-year-old man, was admitted to the hospital with complaints of dyspnea and cough. On admission, chest film showed hydropneumothorax on the right. After closed thoracostomy, hydropneumothorax disappeared, but hazy densities, developed in the right middle and lower lung fields, resisted to treatment. Bronchoscopy uncovered irregular tumor covering the carina and the right main bronchus, and biopsy indicated well differentiated squamous Cell carcinoma. Operation was performed on July 2, 1975. A right postero-lateral thoracotomy was used. Excision involved the lower trachea, the carina, the left main bronchus and the right lung. This was followed by direct anastomosis between the trachea and the left main bronchus. Bronchography was done on 17th postoperative day revealed good result of operation without stricture at the site ofanastomosis. About one month after the operation symptoms and signs of bronchial irritation with dyspnea developed, and these responded to respiratory care. On 82nd postoperative day, sudden dyspnea developed at night and the patient expired several hours later. Autopsy was not done and the cause of death was uncertain.

이 연구의 목적은 정상폐의 의존적 부위와 비의존적 부위에서 중력과 호흡이 폐밀도에 어떤 영향을 미치는지 그리고 폐첨부, 중부, 기저부의 부위별 밀도 차이가 어떻게 존재하며 호기말 양압에 따른 폐실질의 변화상을 알아보고 흉부 전산화 단층촬영에서 호기말 양압과 중력에 의해 가장 영향을 적게 받는 최적의 자세와 압력을 결정하고자 한다. 비글 8마리와 시츄 8마리에서 자발 호흡을 억제시킨 상태에서 호기말양압을 0 mmHg, 10 mmHg, 20 mmHg를 가하여 배측 횡와 자세와 복측 횡와 자세, 좌 우측 횡와자세에서 전산화 단층 촬영을 실시하였다. 폐의 첨부와 중부기저부 (각각 대동맥궁, 기관 분기부, 횡격막 직상방) 세부위의 슬라이스를 선택하였다. 스캔한 세 부위에서 대혈관은 포함시키지 않고 흉벽에서 5 mm 떨어진 폐 주변부에서 전부, 후부, 측부 세 곳을 정하여 50 mm2 면적을 갖는 원형의 관심영역을 설정한 후 그 면적의 밀도를 측정하였다. 폐밀도는 품종과 자세, 호기말 양압에 상관없이 호기말 양압이 0 mmHg, 10 mmHg에서 중력방향에 영향을 받은 폐의 의존적인 부분이 비의존적인 부분보다 더 높게 측정이 되었으나 호기말 양압이 20 mmHg일때는 시츄견의 배측 횡와 자세를 제외하고는 폐밀도에 차이가 없었다. 4가지 자세 모두에서 폐의 첨부의 폐밀도가 폐의 기저부 보다 더 높게 측정이 되었으며 압력이 증가함에 따라 동일부위에서 측정한 폐밀도는 감소하는 경향으로 관찰되었다. 같은 압력과 같은 자세에서 폐의 첨부와 중부, 기저부의 슬라이스에서 전부, 후부, 측부를 비교 평가한 결과에서는 비글과 시츄견 모두에서 복측 횡와 자세와 좌 우측으로 횡와한 자세, 20 mmHg에서 폐밀도간에 차이가 없는 것으로 확인되었다. 따라서 흉부 전산화 단층촬영을 위한 최적의 자세와 호기말 양압은 비글과 시츄견 모두에서 복측 횡와 자세와 좌 우측으로 횡와한 자세 와 20 mmHg로 확인되었으며 이러한 결과들을 바탕으로 폐질환이 의심되는 동물에 있어서 전산화 단층 촬영상 판독을 위한 기초 자료를 구축할 수 있었다.
