We report on plasma damage free chemical vapor deposition technique for the thin film passivation of organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs), organic thin film transistor (OTFT) and flexible displays using catalyzer enhanced chemical vapor deposition (CECVD). Specially designed CECVD system has a ladder-shaped tungsten catalyzer and movable electrostatic chuck for low temperature deposition process. The top emitting OLED with thin film $SiN_x$ passivation layer shows electrical and optical characteristics comparable to those of the OLED with glass encapsulation. This indicates that the CECVD technique is a promising candidate to grow high-quality thin film passivation layer on OLED, OTFT, and flexible displays.

In this paper, we have designed the humanoid robot's leg parts with 12 D.O.F. This robot uses ankle's joints to confirm stability of walking performance. It is less movable to use ankle's joints than to do upper body's balancing joints like IWR-III, which needs three parts of via points, support leg, swing leg and balancing joints. Instead, the proposed humanoid robot needs support leg and swing leg via points. ZMP(Zero Moment Point) is utilized to guarantee the stability of robot's walking. The humanoid robot uses the ankle's joints to compensate for IWR-III's balancing joints movement. Actually we concern about a motor performance when making a real humanoid robot. So a simulator is employed to know each joint torque of humanoid robot. This simulator needs D-H(Denavit-Hartenberg) parameters, robot's mass property and two parts of via points. The simulation results are robot's walking trajectories and each motor torque. Using the walking trajectories, we can see the robot's walking scene with 3D simulator. Before we develop the humanoid robot, simulation of the humanoid robot's walking performance is very helpful. And the torque data will be used to make humanoid's joint module.

Purpose: Myoepithelioma is a rare tumor that originates exclusively from myoepithelial cells of the salivary glands, breast and the prostate. Myoepithelioma accounts for less than 1% of all salivary gland tumors. The objective of our study is to present our experience of the infra-auricular mass which was finally diagnosed as a myoepithelioma. Methods: A 54-year-old woman was presented with a firm, movable, slow-growing infra-auricular mass with 3 cm in diameter. MRI scans and fine needle biopsy was performed for preoperative diagnostic study. A superficial parotidectomy was preceded and removed tumor successfully. Results: Histopathological study revealed a myoepithelioma of plasmacytoid type. Patient's postoperative course was uneventful without any complication and had no evidence of recurrence of tumor for 9 months follow-up period. Conclusion: Myoepithelioma in the parotid gland shows similar clinical courses and intraoperative finding to the pleomorphic adenoma and superficial parotidectomy was selective choice for treatment.

The numbers of the elder are rapidly growing who wants to enhance social activities, because Korea is already an aging society since 2000. The mobility and accessibility are the key issues to enhance them. The electric motor scooter and the power wheel chair are efficient movable means at a short range. It would be needed to get on and off them if the elder wants use them after arriving a long distant destination. But the electric scooter is too heavy for a man to get on and off a coach van. The motor winch lift is developed for the elder and the handicapped to get on and off a van easily. The lift consists of 3-linkage which can be installed in a trunk of a van with a small space. The clearance and stress of each component are checked by a computer simulation. The prototype was made. and the performances of safety and comfortableness were verified by operational ability test and durability test.

Local anesthesia known as the safe and essential procedure to control pain in dentistry may cause sensory changes such as paresthesia or altered taste at the affected sites after even successful local anesthesia. Although the prognosis of the nerve injuries after local anesthesia is favorable, it might cause prolonged problems such as dysesthesia. The lingual nerve is a single fascicle at the level of the lingual among 1/3 of patients and more movable during regeneration compared to the inferior alveolar nerve after the injury. As a result, the lingual nerve is more vulnerable and has poorer outcomes. More vigilant clinical considerations are required to the lingual nerve injury after local anesthesia. Generally, more than 80% of cases are spontaneously resolved within 2 weeks after the local anesthesia even without any specific treatment. However, the patient having long lasting abnormal sensations more than 2 weeks needs specialists' care for further assessment. In case of dysesthesia which is a symptom of neuropathic pain, immediate referral to specialists is mandatory. The exact mechanism, how to prevent its occurrence, or specific treatments of the nerve injury related to the local anesthesia have not been elucidated. To prepare clinical or medicolegal problems, many cautious considerations are given to the patients who complain sensory changes after local anesthesia.

하천은 크게 이수와 치수 및 환경 등의 주요 기능을 가지고 있다. 이수는 하천과 물이 주는 가치를 말하며, 치수는 기능이라기 보다는 엄밀한 의미에서 하천관리를 통한 자연재해 방지를 의미한다. 이러한 이 치수 기능의 확보와 수변환경 조성을 위해 친환경적 수리구조물인 가동보의 설치가 증가 하고 있다. 가동보는 하천에 주로 설치되는 수리구조물 중의 하나로 국내에서는 2000년 대부터 고정보를 대신하여 설치가 시작 되었으며, 최근 친환경적 하천정비 및 다양한 목적 등으로 국내 하천에 약 1,200여개의 가동보가 설치 및 운영되고 있다. 이와 같이 다목적 활용을 위해 가동보의 수요가 급증하고 있으나, 안전한 이 치수를 위한 유량 계측 시스템은 국내 외 적으로 구축되어 있지 않은 실정이다. 하천 유량 자료는 하천관리에 있어 서 필수적인 요소이며, 하천 유량 측정을 위해 국토교통부 및 환경부에서는 매년 막대한 예산을 사용하고 있는 실정이다. 이에, 본 연구에서는 단면이 일정한 가동보 특징을 고려하여 높이 측정센서와 상류측 수위 측정 센서로부터 계측된 자료를 추출하여 가동보 월류량 산정식을 적용해 가동보와 연계한 실시간 유량 계측 시스템을 개발하였다. 개발 결과 각 센서의 계측값을 이용하여 실시간 하천유량 계측이 가능하며, 기 설치된 가동보에 적용이 가능해 개발된 기술을 국내 가동보에 적용한다면 정량적인 실시간 유량 측정이 가능하여 안전한 하천관리가 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

우리나라는 1960년대 경제개발에 의한 산업화 이후, 토지이용이 꾸준히 확대되어 왔으며, 이로 인해 불투수면적 증가하였고, 배수시설의 확장은 표면조도계수 및 침투율을 급격히 감소시키는 요인으로 작용하여 우수 및 오수의 유출속도가 증가하여 홍수방어능력이 감소하였다. 또한 기후변화로 인한 국지성 집중호우의 발생빈도가 증가함에 따라 이로 인한 피해가 더욱 가중되고 있다. 현재 이에 대한 대응능력을 갖추기 위한 치수대책을 꾸준히 실시하고 있으나 주로 홍수량을 줄이기 보다는 증가하는 홍수량을 처리하기 위한 하천정비, 하수관, 유수지 및 펌프장 증설을 중심으로 이루어지고 있다. 이는 하천 하류의 홍수량을 증가시켜 하천주변에 침수피해를 일으키고 있어 보다 항구적인 대책이 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 특정유역에 침수가 발생할 시 횡월류위어 가동방식(고정보-가동보)에 따라 미치는 침수영향에 대해 저류조 유입특성(총 유입량, 유입유량 첨두치), 침수지역 침수특성(첨두유량, 첨두수위, 첨두유속, 침수면적, 월류시간)을 정량적으로 분석하여 향후 저류지 설치에 따른 횡월류위어 가동방식 선정에 기여하고자 한다.

In patients with severely resorbed alveolar bone, it is difficult to gain retention in denture. Lack of retention makes denture unstable and lead to trouble in using denture. Suction denture seals the entire denture border with movable mucosa and this sealing mechanism forms negative pressure beneath the denture and produce higher retention and stability to denture. In this case, 4 edentulous patients visited for lack of retention with dentures. Considering their high expectation with retention, suction denture concept was used to fabricate retentive and stable denture. The purpose of this case report is to compare and analyze the considerations of suction denture restorations in edentulous patients.

Human sparganosis is a food-borne zoonosis mainly caused by the plerocercoid belonging to the genus Spirometra. The most common clinical sign of sparganosis is a subcutaneous mass in the trunk including abdominal or chest wall. The mass may be mistaken for a malignant tumor, thereby causing difficulty in terms of diagnosis and treatment. A 66-year-old woman visited our clinic for the removal of a lipoma-like mass. It was movable, hard, and painless. we identified 2 white mass, measuring $0.2{\times}4cm$ and $0.2{\times}1cm$. Pathologic finding indicated the white mass was a sparganum. She recalled having eaten a raw frog approximately 60 years before. A 35-year-old who lived North Korea was also presented to our clinic with an asymptomatic nodule on her abdomen. Intraoperatively, we found sparganum approximately 24 cm size. Subcutaneous masses are associated with clinical signs of inflammation or they may mimic a soft tissue neoplasm. While the incidence rate of sparganosis has decreased with economic development and advancements in sanitation, surgeons still encounter patients with sparganosis in the clinical setting. Therefore, a careful history is required in order to diagnose sparganosis.
