Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) was obtained from the clinical specimens at Pusan national university Hospital, Pusan, Korea. The sensitivities against various antibiotics were examined by using disc diffusion test and associated genes such as mecA, mecR1, mecI and femA were detected by polymerase chain reaction. Among Seventy-nine strains of MRSA, 38 strains(48.1%)were sensitive to streptomycin and 32 strains(40.5%) to cefoperazone, while one strain(1.3%) were resistant to vancomycin. In considering the result of this study, 7 strains showed resistance to 9 kinds of different antibiotics, 12 strains were to 8 kinds, 24 strains were to 7,25 strains were to 6, 9 strains were to 5, and 2 strains were to 4 antibiotics. Among 79 strains of MRSA, 67 strains were coagulase positive and 12 were coagulase negative. In the detection of MRSA associated genes by PCR method, mecA, mecR1, mecI, and femA genes were detected in 30 strains(44.8%), 28 strains(41.8%), 23 strains(34.3%) and 15 strains(22.4%), respectively. MecA type that is without femA were found in 21 strains(31.3%), femA type that is without regulator genes were shown in 4 strains(6.0%), while mecA-mecR1-mecI type with regulator genes were shown more to be 17 strains(25.4%). There was little statistical significance between multidrug resistance and MRSA associated genes. Considering these result, it is necessary to include moecular biological studies of related genes to the study drug resistance.

It is necessary for development of drawing product with press to have suitable material selection & all process design and the problem during press process has been cleared from judgement of experience & trial and error. Recently we can estimate press process result from computer aided design & FEM. But we can get more reliable result when we can put more precise process variants during FEM. In case of using a drawbead that is used for the material inflow, it is considered for us to put material property, other analysis condition & friction figure when material is passing through the drawbead for better FEM. From our study, we have drawn an analogy bead connection depth, friction figure & drawing and restraining load according to kinds of lubrication from experiment & FEM for the drawbead. We applied above result to the drawing experiment & FEM and confirmed the validity. We could notice the relation between friction figure & drawing load and the friction figure variation according to kinds of lubrication. It is expected to draw more precise analogy that can be used for real process due to more precise process variants application to FEM.

The FEM(Finite Element Method) can be used to analysis SRM(Switched Reluctance Motor) as it can account for the salient pole geometry of the stator and rotor and the nonlinear properties of the magnetic materials. However, FEM requirers a lot of computer memory and computing time because, the kind of SRM drivers is verity and the switching strategies are various for one SRM driver. In this paper we proposed the method of analysis of a SRM which results are similar to FEM and has very short computing time. The Inductance and torque for each phase current at each rotor position are calculated by using two-dimensional nonlinear FEM analysis. Using the look-up table of inductance and torque and the voltage equations of SRM we obtained the phase current and torque. To verify proposed algorithm, 3 phase 6/4 SRM is analysed and found a good agreement with FEM results. And computing time is about 1/1600 of the FEM analysis.

This paper proposes an efficient method for 3-dimensional capacitance extraction based on Finite Element Method(FEM). This method expands the conventional FEM by adopting variable division. This method improves the extraction efficiency 2 to 100 times and even the accuracy 1% to 3% when compared to the conventional FEM with equal division. The Proposed method can be used efficiency to extract electrical parameters of on/off-chip interconnects in VLSI systems.

A flat-type L$_1$-B$_{8}$ Mode Ultrasonic motor(USM) uses longitudinal-bending multi-mode vibrator which is constructed with the metal-piezoceramic composite thin plate vibrator. Especially, the characteristics of vibrating displacement of the vibrator are important for the fabrication of USM. So, in this study, we tried to analyze them by the FEM(finite element method) simulation program. ANSYS 5.6 we used is a finite element software enabling the analysis of 2 or 3 dimensional structure of piezoelectric materials. Using this made us analyzing the resonance frequency and calculating displacement of vibrator and then the position of the projection.n.

In this study, a design process for reinforced concrete structures using the nonlinear FEM analysis is developed. Instead of using the nonlinear analysis to evaluate the required performance after design process, the nonlinear analysis is applied before designing the reinforcement arrangement inside the RC structures. An automatic reinforcement generator for computer aided reinforcement agreement is developed for this purpose. Based on a nonlinear FEM program for analyzing the reinforced concrete structure, a smart fictitious material model of steel, is proposed which can self-adjust the reinforcement to the required amount at the cracking location according to the load increment. Using this tool, the reinforcement ratio required at design load level can be decided automatically. In this paper, an example of RC beam with opening is used to verify the proposed process. Finally, a trial design process for a real size underground RC LNG tank is introduced.

Field measurements of various structures have been conducted for many purposes. Measurement data obtained by field measurement is very useful to determine vibration characteristics including dynamic characteristics such as the damping ratio, natural frequency, and mode shape of a structure. In addition, results of field measurements and modal identification can be used for modal updating of FEM analysis, for checking the efficiency of damping devices and so on. This paper shows some examples of field measurements and modal identification for structural health monitoring. As the first example, changes of dynamic characteristics of a 15-story office building in four construction stages from the foundation stage to completion are described. The dynamic characteristics of each construction stage were modeled as accurately as possible by FEM, and the stiffness of the main structural frame was evaluated and the FEM results were compared with measurements performed on non-load-bearing elements. Simple FEM modal updating was also applied. As the next example, full-scale measurements were also carried out on a high-rise chimney, and the efficiency of the tuned mass damper was investigated by using two kinds of modal identification techniques. Good correspondence was shown with vibration characteristics obtained by the 2DOF-RD technique and the Frequency Domain Decomposition method. As the last example, the wind-induced response using RTK-GPS and the feasibility of hybrid use of FEM analysis and RTK-GPS for confirming the integrity of structures during strong typhoons were shown. The member stresses obtained by hybrid use of FEM analysis and RTK-GPS were close to the member stresses measured by strain gauges.

The stress and deformation behavior safeties of cylindrical hollow rollers have been analyzed by the finite element method, and investigated for over design capability based on the computed results. According to the stress analysis result which is related to the strength of a hollow roller, the maximum stress of 39.8MPa in which is operated near the bearing for supporting a hollow roller structure is overestimated design as 15.9% level compared with a yield strength, 250MPa of a steel material. And the maximum deformation of 0.032mm in which is operated at the middle span of a total length of cylindrical hollow rollers is very small and sufficiently safe compared with a total length and a thickness of a hollow roller. Thus, the FEM computed results for a stress and deformation indicate that a current FEM analysis model of cylindrical hollow rollers is over designed.
