Wave velocity was measured to define the weathering characteristics of rock and the strength evaluation of weathered rock on a target of the Aso gravestones with various sizes under the natural environment. As a result, the size correction method which was changed sample of the different size to one of the same size for evaluating wave velocity was proposed, and also suggested the NET (Normalized Elapsed Time) as a new weathering index of rock. In addition, the strength of the weathered rock was estimated from the weathering classification of rock using the NET. Wave velocity of welded tuff was high and didn't show velocity degradation, on the other hand, one of andesite was low and showed velocity degradation. The degree of weathering between rocks of the different size is considered to be comparable, applying the NET based on the on the $V_p/V_o$-NET curve. Furthermore, the classification of rock weathering stages using the NET based on the $S_c/S_o$-NET curve was available, and the estimation of strength for the weathered rock was also possible.

Background: Although cranial electrotherapy stimulation (CES) is reported to have positive effects on mental functions such as depression and sleep improvement, detailed studies regarding awakening, attention and concentration among brain waves reflecting brain activity are lacking. Objective: To examine the effects of cranial electrotherapy stimulation (CES) on various electroencephalograms (EEGs) reflecting brain activities. Design: Randomized controlled clinical trial (single blind) Methods: This study selected 30 healthy adult women in their 20s who volunteered for this experiment. A total of 30 subjects were randomly assigned to three groups (Sham group, 0.5 Hz CES group, and 100 Hz CES group). EEGs were measured before and after the single CES, and the results were compared and analyzed. Results: The relative theta, alpha, and gamma waves indicated no significant differences in the interaction effects between time and group. The relative fast alpha wave only showed significant differences in the interaction effects between time and group in P4. The relative slow beta wave only indicated statistically significant differences in the interaction effects between time and group in T3 and T4. The relative mid and fast beta waves showed statistically significant differences in the interaction effects between time and group in all areas. Conclusions: These results suggest that a CES of 0.5 Hz awakens consciousness and has a positive influence on brain activity, while a CES of 100 Hz has a positive influence on thinking activity accompanying mental load during concentrating on one subject.

We estimated the changes of ECG and electrolytes in serum after intravenous administration of Succinylcholine Chloride (SCC), 0.15 mg/kg in ten normal mongrel dogs (mean 13 kg). Hyperkalemia was observed in the highest level by 6.46$\pm$0.8 mEq/L at ten minutes after the administration of SCC. The ECG appeared temporary the most severe changes as the increased T wave, the disappeared P wave, the prolonged of conduction times (PR, QTc intervals and QRS complex), and arrhythmia as ventricular premature contraction at 3 and 5 minutes after the administration SCC. Therefore, the changes of ECG after administration of SCC were suggested to specific and independent from hyperkalemic changes. Because these changes were observed to differ from ECG by hyperkalemia, and the highest period of $K^＋$value in serum differ from the appearance period of severe changes of ECG and arrhythmia by SCC.

This paper deals with a problem for determining the bulbous bow ship from which pertains to the study of the theoretical ship form planing method. In this paper has been determined the bulbous bow ship form which is a similar in geometric particulars with the conventional liner ship G.T.10, 000 by adopting the variable method for finding the optimum ship form by A.Y.C. Lee and the streamline tracing method by T. Inui and P.C. Pien. Each resistance performance is examined by the towing test and is compared with one another. The followings are the outcome of this study: Among the 5 type models, the bulbous bow ship form M.S. B 1120 is the most excellent for the resistance performance. The effect for the wave resistance is very sharp according to the difference of the bottom flattening of theoretical ship form. The optimum value of the bulbous bow for wave resistance can be obtained by the variable method mentioned above, and for the series of(Main hull+Bulb)opt., ${\alpha}=75/25$, the value is $f{\approx}0.11$.

An analysis of &5 cases of constrictive pericarditis treated surgically in this department of Seoul National University Hospital between the years 1958 and 1974 has been presented. 1.Of the patients with constrictive pericarditis,29 were males and 6 were females. Their ages averaged 23.8 years. 2. All patients who had pericardiectomy showed excellent postoperative results, and no operative mortality was noted in this group of patients but 3 hospital death [9.1%] occurred. 3. Besides shortening of circulation time elevated venous pressure was restored to normal range after pericardiectomy from a preoperative average 25.8cm $H_2O$ to a postoperative average 14.8cm $H_2O$. 4. Electrocardiographic changes consisted chiefly of low voltage complexes, P-wave and T-wave changes and characterized by vertical or semivertical heart position. The ECG was returned to normal or near normal after Pericardiectomy. 5. There were seven postoperative complications in this series. 6. In ten cases [32.3%], the pathology revealed evidence of tuberculosis in the pericardium or the myocardium, and others were described as chronic, proliferative, fibrous pericarditis or hyalinization of the pericardium.

The temperature dependence of spin wave mode separation in amorphous $Co_{89.5}Zr_{10.5}$ thin film has been investigated at temperatures between 100 K and 300 K. The magnetization and the spectroscopic splitting factor were obtained for the main resonance mode in parallel and perpendicular magnetic field. ${\Delta}H_{2-3}$, the difference between resonance field of mode 2 and the resonance field of mode 3, increases with decreasing temperature. The linewidth increases for all the modes with decreasing temperature. Especially in mode 3 it increases rapidly below 200 K. This phenomenon could be caused by the increase of exchange stiffness constant or the decrease of surface magnetic anisotropy constant with decreasing temperature.

The R wave of QRS complex is the most prominent feature in ECG because of its specific shape; therefore it is taken as a reference in ECG feature extraction. But R wave detection suffers from the fact that frequency bands of the noise/other components such as P/T waves overlap with that of QRS complex. ECG signal processing must consider efficiency for hardware and software resources available in processing for miniaturization and low power. In other words, the design of algorithm that exactly detects QRS region using minimal computation by analyzing the person's physical condition and/or environment is needed. Therefore, efficient QRS detection based on SOM(Subtractive Operation Method) is presented in this paper. For this purpose, we detected R wave through the preprocessing method using morphological filter, empirical threshold, and subtractive signal. Also, we applied dynamic backward searching method for efficient detection. The performance of R wave detection is evaluated by using MIT-BIH arrhythmia database. The achieved scores indicate the average of 99.41% in R wave detection.

This paper describes an electronic compass using micromachined X- and Y-axis micro fluxgate sensors which were perpendicularly aligned each other to measure X- and Y-axis magnetic fields respectively. The fluxgate sensor was composed of rectangular-ring shaped magnetic core and solenoid excitation(49 turns) and pick-up(46 turns) coils. Excitation and pick-up coil patterns which were formed opposite to each other wound the magnetic core alternatively to improve the sensitivity and to excite the magnetic core in an optimal condition with reduced excitation current. The magnetic core has DC effective permeability of ~1000 and coercive field of ~0.1 Oe. The magnetic core is easily saturated due to the low coercive field and closed magnetic path for the excitation field. To decrease the difference of induced second harmonic voltages from X- and Y-axis, excitation condition of 2.8 $V_{P-P}$ and 1.2 MHz square wave was selected. Excellent linear response over the range of -100 $\mu$T to +100 $\mu$T was obtained with 210 V/T sensitivity. The size of each micro fluxgate sensor excluding pad region was about 2.6${\times}$1.7 $mm^2$ and the power consumption was estimated to be 14 mW.W.

This paper presents a procedure within the framework of linear potential theory for predicting the lateral drifting forces on a cylinder floating on the free surface of a finite depth water. The disturbance of a regular incident wave caused by the presence of the floating body is represented by the sum of the diffracted and radiated wave potentials, which are determined by using Green's theorem. The lateral drifting forces are calculated by use of momentum theorem, and the scattered waves are expressed in their asymptotic forms. The computed lateral drifting forces on a Lewis form cylinder(b/T=1.25, $\sigma$=0.95) for water depth to draft ratio of 5.0 are compared with the Kyozuka's experimental results for a deep water, and found to be in good agreement. The water depth effects on drifting forces of the same model are also calculated.
