  • Purpose: The author modified the technique of Grice-Green, for managing flexible flat foot, with severe hindfoot valgus and possible dorsiflexion more than $15^{\circ}$. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and results of this modified technique. Material and Methods: Total of 6 patients, 11 cases of pes planovalgus were operatively managed with Modified Grice-Green procedure from Nov. 1996 to April 2002. Total 11 cases in 6 patients were managed; 9 cases in 5 males, 2 cases in one female. The average age of the patients were 7.3 years (5.1-13.3 years). Average follow up period was 3.9 years (1.2-6.7 years). Patients were evaluated preoperatively and at last follow up radiologically and clinically. Radiologic evaluation were done by measuring the talocalcaneal and talo-$1^{st}$ metatarsal angles with the anteroposterior view; and by measuring the talo-$1^{st}$ metatarsal angles with the lateral view. The clinical outcome were rated by subjective and objective improvement level. Results: On follow up, 9 cases were complete satisfied, 2 cases were satisfied with minor reservation and no case had major reservations or dissatisfaction. Objective results were rated as excellent in 9 cases, good in 2 cases. Average preoperative talo-calcaneal and talo-$1^{st}$ metatarsal angles on anteroposterior radiograms were $34.4^{\circ}$ ($16-40^{\circ}$) and $32^{\circ}$ ($8-48^{\circ}$) respectively; which postoperatively on last follow up were $20^{\circ}$ ($3-37^{\circ}$) and $15.6^{\circ}$ ($3-34^{\circ}$) respectively. Average Preoperative talo-$1^{st}$ metatarsal angle on lateral radiogram was $18.4^{\circ}$ ($6-30^{\circ}$); which postoperatively on last follow up was $6.7^{\circ}$ ($-6-17^{\circ}$). Conclusion: Modified Grice-Green operative procedure is effective and satisfactory procedure for planovalgus deformity in children. but for more accurate results, more patients and further follow up period are needed.

  • Seismic parameters fur computation of ground motions in Southern Korea are obtained from recently recorded data, and site-independent regional and site-dependent local strong ground motions are predicted using efficient computational techniques. For the computation of ground motions, we devised an efficient procedure to compute site-independent $x_{q}$ and dependent $x_{s}$ values separately. The first step of this procedure is to use the coda normalization method far computation of site independent Q or corresponding $x_{q}$ value. The next step is the computation of $x_{s}$, values fur each site separately using the given $x_{q}$ value. For computation of ground motions the empirical Green's function (EGF) is modified to account fur the depth and distance variations of subevents on a finite fault plane using the theoritical Green's function. It is computed using wavenumber integration technique in layered media. The site dependent ground motions at seismic stations in southeastern local area were properly simulated using the modified empirical Green's function method in layered medium. The proposed method and procedures fur estimation of site dependent seismic parameters and ground motions could be efficiently used in the low and moderate seismicity regions.ons.s.ons.

  • The "Green Policy" of Korean government is classified as three categories, the first is 'reduction of fossil fuel use', the second is 'clean energy development' and the last is 'sustainable green property which has a continuous value in the use'. In this matter, this study provides how the green property concept include green infrastructure and how to link the green infrastructure to effective geo-spatial management by cadastre system. The establishment of green infrastructure is not a simple procedure, but definitely starts from the cadastre system. If the green policy includes sustainable way of land/marine use, the green cadastre is significant because of its possibilities to be used as a powerful implementation.

  • A green procedure is described for the preparation of a series of ionic liquids where two 3-methylimidazolium cations were bridged with ethylene glycol chain as linkers. Diethylene glycol-bis(3-methylimidazolium) ditosylate, triethylene glycolbis(3-methylimidazolium) ditosylate, and tetraethylene glycol-bis(3-methylimidazolium) ditosylate were heated with 3-methylimidazole under solvent-free condition to give the corresponding bis(3-methylimidazolium) ditosylate ionic liquids efficiently in a short time.

  • A numerical procedure for analyzing thermo-elastic contact applied to an automotive disk brake and calculating subsurface stress distribution has been developed. The proposed procedure takes the advantage of the simplex algorithm to save computing time. Flamant's solution and Boussinesq's solution are adopted as Green function in analysis. Comparing the numerical results with the exact solutions has proved the validity of this procedure.

  • In this paper, a new green clustering algorithm is proposed to be as a first approach in the framework of an energy efficient strategy for centralized enterprise high-density WLANs. Traditionally, in order to maintain the network coverage, all the APs within the WLAN have to be powered-on. Nevertheless, the new algorithm can power-off a large proportion of APs while the coverage is maintained as its always-on counterpart. The two main components of the new approach are the faster procedure based on K-means and the more accurate procedure based on Evolutionary Algorithm (EA), respectively. The two procedures are processes in parallel for different designed requirements and there is information interaction in between. In order to implement the new algorithm, EA is applied to handle the optimization of multiple objectives. Moreover, we adapt the method for selection and recombination, and then introduce a new operator for mutation. This paper also presents simulations in scenarios modeled with ray-tracing method and FDTD technique, and the results show that about 67% to 90% of energy consumption can be saved while it is able to maintain the original network coverage during periods when few users are online or the traffic load is low.

  • This paper deals with the industrial problem of thermal striping damage on the French prototype fast breeder reactor, Phenix and it was studied in coordination with the research program of IAEA. The thermomechanical and fracture mechanics evaluation procedure of thermal striping damage on the tee-junction of the secondary piping using Green's function method and standard FEM is presented. The thermohydraulic(T/H) loading condition used in the present analysis is the random type thermal loads computed by T/H analysis on the turbulent mixing of the two flows with different temperatures. The thermomechanical fatigue damage was evaluated according to ASME code section 111 subsection NH. The results of the fatigue analysis showed that fatigue failure would occur at the welded joint within 90,000 hours of operation. The assessment for the fracture behavior of the welded joint showed that the crack would be initiated at an early stage in the operation. It took 42,698.9 hours for the crack to propagate up to 5 mm along the thickness direction. After then, however, the instability analysis, using tearing modulus, showed that the crack would be arrested, which was in agreement with the actual observation of the crack. An efficient analysis procedure using Green's function approach for the crack propagation problem under random type load was proposed in this study. The analysis results showed good agreement with those of the practical observations.

  • The green building is one of biggest factors to go the goal of energy saving and environmental conservation, reduction of energy consumption, friendly energy technology, recycling of resource, and environmental pollution reduction technology. The purpose of these green buildings realized by the energy-saving technology such as the exterior materials or curtain wall system. The curtain wall system is a element that come to insulated portions of building envelope that results in heat loss. The purpose of this paper is to carried out mock-up tests for exterior wall used in autoclaved lightweight concrete panels in green building practices. Mock-up test execute a mixed process between standard test procedure and complex test procedure based on AAMA 501(American Society for Testing and Materials) and ASTM 283, ASTM 330(American Society for Testing and Materials). In results, tests meet the requirements that grant values in steps of procedures provided on ASTM and AAMA. ALC panel is suitable for a exterior wall product to be gratified thermal cycling performance and structural capacity, deflection(H/200) and lateral displacement(H/50), for curtain walls.
