When evaluating acoustic methods for measuring physical parameters in the ocean, economical and technical considerations are paramount. As an indirect method of estimating ocean dynamics, acoustic tomography has advantages over more conventional approaches. It allows the reconstruction of temperature and flow fields from the acoustic impulse time-of-flight measured along the rays propagating from the source to the receiver. However, many problems require complicated and expensive systems. To use the acoustic tomography method to best effect, developing hardware systems with sources and receivers mounted permanently on the sea bottom is crucial. Akulichev et al. presented some experimental results from shallow zones of the World Ocean that served as a motive for developing a multifunction system with acoustic hardware and software. Here we present technical features and the sea test results of the system.

Pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum, and with VSD were uncommon congenital anomalies with high mortality in the neonatal period. Those survivals depend on an adequate interatrial communication or interventricular communication and pulmonary flow via large aortopulmonary collateral including PDA. Recently we experienced surgical correction of 2 cases pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum and with VSD. On case 1, 10-years old male patient was confirmed as pulmonary valvular membranous atresia with intact ventricular septum combined with large functioning PFO and mild tricuspid incompetence. So we performed total correction under the E.C.C, that was PDA ligation, RVOT reconstruction with monocusp valved outflow patch [16mm], repair of tricuspid insufficiency and closure of PFO. Post-operative hemodynamic result was good and there was no event during hospital course. On case 2, 16-years old female patient was diagnosed as pulmonary atresia with VSD and PDA. MPA was absent, remained fibrous cord like remnant and type of VSD was subaortic defect [3cm by 3cm in the size]. PDA was located at the usual site. Under the E.C.C. VSD patch closure through the right ventriculotomy, anastomosis between the right ventricular outflow tract and the pulmonary bifurcated site with the extra-cardiac Hancock valved conduit [22cm] and PDA ligation were performed.

Having its roots in medical applications, industrial gamma ray CT has opened up new roads far investigating and modeling industrial processes. Using a line of research related to industrial gamma ray CT, the authors set up a system of single source and detector gamma transmission tomography for wood timber and a packed bed phantom. The hardware of the CT system consists of two servo motors, a data logger, a computer, a radiation source and a radiation detector. One motor simultaneously moves the source and the detector for a parallel beam scanning, whereas the other motor rotates the scan table at a preset projection angle. The image is reconstructed from the measured projections by the filtered back projection method. The phantom was designed to simulate a cross section of a packed bed with a void. The radiation source was 20mCi of Cs-137 and the detector was a 1 inch $\times$ 1 inch NaI (TI) scintillator shielded by a lead collimator. The experimental gamma ray CT image has sufficient resolution to reveal air holes and the density distribution inside the phantom. The system could possibly be applied to a packed bed column or a pipe flow in a petrochemical plant.

Contrary to the conventional single-point measuring devices such as LDV, pitot-tube, hot-wire, etc., it would be possible to measure instantaneously 3-D flow fields with a stereoscopic PIV system. In this paper, we present an analysis algorithm for a stereoscopic PIV system using the normalized cross-correlation (NCC) and a 3-D calibration based reconstruction method. The evaluation method based on NCC is one of the most accurate correlation-based methods. We validated the developed algorithm through a benchmarking comparison with 3-D artificial SPIV images and calibration target images.

The diffuse interface model of Saurel et al. (2008) is used for the computation of compressible cavitating flows around underwater missiles. Such systems use gas injection and natural cavitation to reduce drag effects. Consequently material interfaces appear separating liquid and gas. These interfaces may have a really complex dynamics such that only a few formulations are able to predict their evolution. Contrarily to front tracking or interface reconstruction method the interfaces are computed as diffused numerical zones, that are captured in a routinely manner, as is done usually with gas dynamics solvers for shocks and contact discontinuity. With the present approach, a single set of partial differential equations is solved everywhere, with a single numerical scheme. This leads to very efficient solvers. The algorithm derived in Saurel et al. (2009) is used to compute cavitation pockets around solid bodies. It is first validated against experiments done in cavitation tunnel at CNU. Then it is used to compute flows around high speed underwater systems (Shkval-like missile). Performance data are then computed showing method ability to predict forces acting on the system.

Augmented reality techniques have been increasingly employed in the textile and fashion industry as well as computer graphics sectors. Three-dimensional virtual clothing CAD systems have also been widely used in the textile industries and academic institutes. Motion tracking techniques are grafted together in the 3D and augmented reality techniques in order to develop the virtual three-dimensional clothing and fitting systems in the fashion and textile industry sectors. In this study, three-dimensional virtual clothing sample has been prepared using a 3D virtual clothing CAD along with a 3D scanning and reconstruction system. Motion of the user has been captured through an RGB-D sensor system, and the virtual clothing fitted on the user's body is allowed to move along with the captured motion flow of the user. Acutal fabric specimens are selected for the material characterization. This study is a primary step toward building a comprehensive system for the user to experience interactively virtual clothing under real environment.

Esophagectomy and esophageal reconstruction are commonly chosen as surgical options for esophageal cancer. However, prolonged untreated chyle leakage is associated with a poor prognosis. We report the case of a patient with refractory chylous ascites. To limit the ongoing fluid loss, we utilized the chylous ascites as an additional fluid source in a renal replacement therapy system. A continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) drainage system was modified to drain both the chylous ascites and venous blood. The ascites drainage rate was determined empirically and regulated by a dial-flow extension set. The CRRT mode was set to continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration and maintained for 7 days. After the patient was weaned from CRRT, ascites did not reaccumulate, and the patient's general condition improved dramatically. No infections related to the system occurred. This procedure temporarily alleviates symptoms and provides more time for alternative treatment strategies.

We develop in this work a new well-balanced preserving-positivity path-conservative central-upwind scheme for Saint-Venant-Exner (SVE) model. The SVE system (SVEs) under some considerations, is a nonconservative hyperbolic system of nonlinear partial differential equations. This model is widely used in coastal engineering to simulate the interaction of fluid flow with sediment beds. It is well known that SVEs requires a robust treatment of nonconservative terms. Some efficient numerical schemes have been proposed to overcome the difficulties related to these terms. However, the main drawbacks of these schemes are what follows: (i) Lack of robustness, (ii) Generation of non-physical diffusions, (iii) Presence of instabilities within numerical solutions. This collection of drawbacks weakens the efficiency of most numerical methods proposed in the literature. To overcome these drawbacks a reformulation of the central-upwind scheme for SVEs (CU-SVEs for short) in a path-conservative version is presented in this work. We first develop a finite-volume method of the first order and then extend it to the second order via the averaging essentially non oscillatory (AENO) framework. Our numerical approach is shown to be well-balanced positivity-preserving and shock-capturing. The resulting scheme could be seen as a predictor-corrector method. The accuracy and robustness of the proposed scheme are assessed through a carefully selected suite of tests.

도시 계획적 측면에서 도시의 구조적 변화에 따른 기후영향을 파악하여 그 결과를 도시계획에 반영하는 것은 중요하다. 서울시에서는 도시계획 시나리오 정보를 제공하기 위해 도시계획정보시스템(Urban Plan Information System, UPIS)을 활용 중이다. 지자체의 실제 도시계획에 따른 기후영향을 평가하고 분석하기 위해서는 UPIS에서 제공하는 도시계획시나리오와 도시기후분석모델을 손쉽게 연계할 수 있어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 국립기상과학원의 도시기후분석모델(Climate Analysis Seoul, CAS)과 도시계획 시나리오를 연계하는 기술을 개발하였다. CAS는 건물과 식생의 물리적 배치에 따른 온도, 바람 등의 국지규모 변화와 중규모 기상모델인 MetPhoMod(METeorology and atmospheric PHOtochemistry mesoscale MODel)의 분석결과를 바탕으로 찬공기의 생성, 이동, 정체와 바람흐름, 열적환경 등을 분석하는 기능을 가지고 있다. 정밀한 도시정보를 모델에 적용하기 위해 고해상도의 항공 LiDAR(LIgit Detection And Ranging) 측량을 통해 생성된 래스터자료(1m 해상도)와 KOMPSAT-2(KOrea Multi-Purpose SATellite) 위성영상 자료(4m 해상도)를 이용하여 토지피복 및 수치표고자료로 활용할 입력자료를 생성하였다. 보다 정확한 도시지면 특징을 반영하기 위해 수치표면모델인 DSM(Digital Surface Model)과 수치지형모델인 DTM(Digital Terrain Model)을 전산유체역학모델(Computational Fluid Dynamics, CFD) 입력자료로 사용하여 상세바람분석을 수행하였다. 8방위의 유입류를 고려하여 재정비 전후의 도시구조물 주변의 흐름 및 풍속 분포와 녹지축 형성 전후의 열환경 변화를 분석하였다. 현실적인 기상상태 반영을 위해 CAS의 중규모 기상장을 입력자료로 사용하였으며, 그 결과 재정비에 따른 도시구조물 변화에 의해 바람길에 큰 변화가 확인되었다. 녹지축 형성 이후 전반적으로 재정비지역 주변의 온도가 감소하였다. CAS와 CFD의 연동을 통해 도시지역 재정비와 녹지축 형성 전후의 주변 바람길과 열환경에 대한 실제적인 평가가 가능하며, 도시개발계획과 녹지조성계획 수립에 유용할 것으로 기대된다.
