Purpose: Laparoscopic gastrectomy is a widely accepted surgical technique. Recently, robotic gastrectomy has been developed, as an alternative minimally invasive surgical technique. This study aimed to evaluate the question of whether robotic gastrectomy is feasible and safe for the treatment of gastric cancer, due to its learning curve. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the prospectively collected data of 100 consecutive robotic gastrectomy patients, from November 2008 to March 2011, and compared them to 282 conventional laparoscopy patients during the same period. The robotic gastrectomy patients were divided into 20 initial cases; and all subsequent cases; and we compared the clinicopathological features, operating times, and surgical outcomes between the three groups. Results: The initial 20 robotic gastrectomy cases were defined as the initial group, due to the learning curve. The initial group had a longer average operating time ($242.25{\pm}74.54$ minutes vs. $192.56{\pm}39.56$ minutes, P>0.001), and hospital stay ($14.40{\pm}24.93$ days vs. $8.66{\pm}5.39$ days, P=0.001) than the experienced group. The length of hospital stay was no different between the experienced group, and the laproscopic gastrectomy group ($8.66{\pm}5.39$ days vs. $8.11{\pm}4.10$ days, P=0.001). The average blood loss was significantly less for the robotic gastrectomy groups, than for the laparoscopic gastrectomy group ($93.25{\pm}84.59$ ml vs. $173.45{\pm}145.19$ ml, P<0.001), but the complication rates were no different. Conclusions: Our study shows that robotic gastrectomy is a safe and feasible procedure, especially after the 20 initial cases, and provides a satisfactory postoperative outcome.

곡면간의 교차계산은 부울연산(Boolean operations)과 조각된 곡면들을 지원하기위한 기하 모델링과 솔리드에서 사용되는 기본적인 기하학 연산이다. 본 논문에서는 두 정규화된 곡면의 교차곡선을 따라 추적하기 위한 새로운 알고리즘을 제안한다. 그러므로 본 논문에서는 계산상의 간소화와 2차 연속성을 나타낸다. 따라서, 교차 곡선의 한 점이 주어지면 이 점을 초기점으로 하여 교차 곡선의 전체 곡선을 추적한다. 그리고 각각의 교선들의 초기점들은 쿼드트리에서 DFS(Depth First Search) 기법으로 검색되고 교선은 연속적인 형태로 자연스럽게 표현된다.

In this paper, we develop computerized procedures of the S-Curve, the cumulative progress rates of load input, applied to shipbuilding basic plan. For a real world ship yard, we study the application related problems and develop more efficient procedures of applying the curves in terms of usability and computerization. The yard currently do not have any mathematical expression for the S-Curve. They express the curves using data tables which represents data points of the manually drafted S-Curve graphs, which causes the difficulties in efficient computerization. Another problem the yard has is the lack of the feedback procedure of the actual load different from the initial plan. Due to those problems, the application procedures of the S-Curve require much time and endeavor amounting two full time employees. To resolve the problems, we develop the mathematical expression of the S-Curve using beta distribution function and the feedback procedure regenerating the planned load reflecting the difference between the initial plan and its realization. To build user friendly program, the graphic user interface is also developed using OSF/MOTIF toolkits. Through the development, we reduce the burden required in applying the curves to a part-time job of one employee.

본 논문에서는 물체의 경계나 형태 추출을 위하여 레벨 세트 이론을 바탕으로 한 새로운 곡선 전개방법을 제안한다. 특히 전처리 과정에서 잡음의 효과적 처리를 위하여 기존의 필터 방식들이 가지는 단점인 경계 부분의 bluning 현상을 줄이고 정확한 에지 위치를 보존할 수 있는 비등방성 확산 필터(anisotropic diffusion filter)를 사용한다. 기존의 레벨 세트 방식이 수축이나 팽창 중 단지 한가지의 방식만 적용되어지는 반면, 제안한 방법은 물체의 경계 추출시 팽창과 수축이 통시에 가능하므로 특히 초기 곡선이 여러 물체에 걸쳐져 있는 경우에도 정확한 형태 추출이 가능하였다. 아울러 초기 곡선의 설정이 위치나 형태에 거의 제한을 받지 않기 때문에 추출을 원하는 영역이 아주 조금만 포함되어 있어도 정화한 형태 추출이 가능하였다.

It is necessary for the numerical simulation of 3-dimensional incompressible isotropic decaying turbulence to construct 3-dimensional initial velocity field which resembles the fully developed turbulence. Although the previous velocity field generation method proposed by Rogallo(1981) satisfies continuity equation and 3-dimensional energy spectrum, it has limitation, as indicated in his paper, that it does not produce the higher velocity moments(e. g. velocity derivative skewness) characteristic of real turbulence. In this study, a new velocity field generation method which is able to control velocity derivative skewness of initial velocity field is proposed. Brief descriptions of the new method and a few parameters which is used to control velocity derivative skewness are given. A large eddy simulation(LES) of isotropic decaying turbulence using dynamic subgrid-scale model is carried out to evaluate the performance of the initial velocity field generated by the new method. It was shown that the resolved turbulent kinetic energy decay curve and the resolved enstrophy decay curve from the initial field of new method were more realistic than those from the initial field of Rogallo's method. It was found that the dynamic model coefficient from the former was initially half the stationary value and experienced relatively short transition period, though that from the latter was initially zero and experienced relatively longer transition period.

매입말뚝의 주면마찰력은 공벽에 주입되는 시멘트풀로 발휘되므로, 시멘트풀이 양생되기 이전에 수행되는 초기항타시험으로 매입말뚝의 주면마찰력을 평가할 수 없다. 또한, 재항타시험 시 항타에너지 부족으로 충분히 선단지지력이 발휘되지 않아 매입말뚝의 최종 지지력이 제대로 평가되지 않을 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 매입말뚝의 초기항타시험과 재항타시험의 결과를 조합하는 새로운 하중-침하량 곡선을 제안하고자 하였다. 현장에 시험말뚝을 매입말뚝공법으로 시공하였으며, 초기항타 및 재항타시험을 수행하고 동재하시험 결과에 대하여 CAPWAP(CAse Pile Wave Analysis Program) 분석을 수행하였다. 초기항타 시 선단 지지거동과 재항타 시 주면 지지거동을 조합한 말뚝 내 하중전이곡선을 가정하였으며, 하중-침하량 곡선을 새롭게 산정하였다. 또한 조합된 하중-침하량 곡선을 이용하여 시험말뚝의 지지력을 평가하였으며 이를 초기항타 및 재항타시험 결과와 비교 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 조합된 하중-침하량 곡선으로 산정된 지지력은 항타에너지 부족으로 인한 지지력 과소평가를 극복할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 가정된 하중전이곡선은 초기항타 및 재항타시험 결과와 비교했을 때 매입말뚝의 지지거동에 더 가까우므로, 조합된 하중-침하량 곡선을 이용함으로써 정재하시험 결과와 더 유사한 지지력을 산정할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 따라서, 본 연구에서 제안한 조합된 하중-침하량 곡선을 사용함으로써 매입말뚝의 동재하시험 시 지지력을 효과적으로 평가할 수 있다.

The reductivity of a spherical curve is the minimal number of times a particular local transformation called an inverse-half-twisted splice is required to obtain a reducible spherical curve from the initial spherical curve. It is unknown if there exists a spherical curve whose reductivity is four. In this paper, an unavoidable set of configurations for a spherical curve with reductivity four is given by focusing on 5-gons. It has also been unknown if there exists a reduced spherical curve which has no 2-gons and 3-gons of type A, B and C. This paper gives the answer to this question by constructing such a spherical curve.

The forging limit curves of sintered porous metals have been calculated, in terms of the two principal strains, by the Lee-Kuhn initial imperfection model. The various yield functions for porous metal have been applied to the initial imperfection model. When the value of initial imperfection ratio equals the value of initial relative density of the sintered porous metals, the calculation values are in good agreement with the measured data. The slopes of the forging limit curves are about 0.5 as in the case of non-porous metals.

Pencil-curve machining, which is a single-pass ball-end milling along a concave edge on adie surface, is widely employed in die-surface machining. The cutter-path used for pencil-curve machining, which is the trajectory of the “ball-center point” of a ball-endmill sliding along a concave-edge region on the die surface, is called pencil-curve. Presented in the paper is a pencil-curve tracing algorithm in which “concave-type” sharp edges are computed from a “virtually digitized” model of the tool-envelope surface. The resulting “initial” pencil-cures are then refuted by applying a series of fairing operations. illustrative examples and methods for enhancing accuracy are also presented. The proposed pencil-curve tracing algorithm has been successfully implemented in a commercial CAM system specialized in die-machining and in the CAD/CAM system CATIA.

This paper proposes a new approach for modeling sweep surfaces. The overall modeling procedure consists of following steps : (1)remeshing the section curves based on the curve lengths ; (2)remeshing the guide curve and the boundary curves based on a given sweeping rule ; (3)obtaining intermediate section curves at the remeshed points of the guide curve by blending the initial section curves ; (4)compensation of the intermediate section curves ; (5)interpolating the initial and intermediate curves using Hermite interpolant. The resulting sweep surface is expressed in a G$^{2}$ bicubic parametric spline surface.
