Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore factors that influence care dependency of institutionalized patients with dementia. Method: This study utilized descriptive correlational design. The convenience sample was composed of 110 residents with dementia of two long-term care facilities in Korea. Stepwise multiple regression was used to identify significant factors influencing care dependency in patients with dementia. Care dependency was measured using the Care Dependency Scale, Korean version(CDS-K). Cognition was measured by the MMSE-K. Functional disability was measured by the PULSES Profile. Behavioral dysfunction was measured by the modified E-BEHAVE AD. Result: Care dependency was significantly influenced by cognition, functional disability, behavioral dysfunction, and duration of dementia. This regression model explained 61 % of the variances in care dependency. Cognition explained 37% of the variances, and functional disability explained 21% of the variances. Conclusion: Results of this study suggest that professional caregivers intervene more effectively in caring for their patients with dementia by recognizing the patients cognitive, functional, behavioral disability, and its periodic change. Individually, remaining abilities-focused intervention should be applied to enhance patient to be dependent and to prevent unnecessary independency.

In switched reluctance motor(SRM) drive, it is necessary to synchronize the stator phase excitation with the rotor position. Therefore, the rotor position information is essential. Usually, optical encoders or resolvers are used to provide the rotor position information. These sensors are expensive and are not suitable for high speed operation. This paper proposes a new encoder for high performance excitation control of SRM. The proposed encoder has complex structures of incremental and absolute encoder. An each phase inductance profile can be synchronized with 4-bit absolute position signal and incremental pulses are used for speed detection. Low cost and simple structure are possible.

In this paper, we suggested the femtosecond laser processing using the mask which makes Gaussian spatial beam distribution to a normalized distribution by Fresenel diffraction. Holography pattern of the size of $320{\times}320{\mu}m^2$ on the Cr thin film on glass substrate with a pixel size of $5{\times}5{\mu}m^2$ was fabricated according to the pattern generated by the iterative Fourier transform algorithm(IFTA) algorithm. We analysed the damage threshold with an assumption the power distribution as Gaussian profile as 45 $mJ/cm^2$. The regenerated image of letters through the diffractive pattern was well recognized at the screen.

In this paper we studied the laser-induced crater depth, mass, and emission spectra of laser-ablated high-density polyethylene (HDPE) polymer using the laser-induced plasma spectroscopy (LIPS) technique. This study was performed using a Nd:YAG laser with 100 mJ energy and 7 ns pulse width, focused normal to the surface of the sample. The nanoscale change in ablated depth versus number of laser pulses was studied. By using scanning electron microscope (SEM) images, the crater depth and ablated mass were estimated. The LIPS spectral intensities were observed for major and minor elements with depth. The comparison between the LIPS results and SEM images showed that LIPS could be used to estimate the crater depth, which is of interest for some applications such as thin-film lithography measurements and online measurements of thickness in film deposition techniques.

In MAGLEV system, the train detection can be achieved by using cross inductive radio lines and antennas, because it is impossible to obtain the short circuit between rail and iron-wheel. In this paper, the experimental results of speed profile which is held on MAGLEV at KIMM are presented. We could obtain the successful experimental results for the speed pulses by the inductive radio lines.

SRM(Switched Reluctance Motor) uses reluctance torque by pulse excitation control. SRM drives are much studied in electrical vehicles and industrial application due to the simple, robust mechanical structure and high speed characteristics. For the high performance control of SRM, it is necessary to synchronize the stator phase excitation with the rotor position. This paper proposes a new encoder for high performance excitation control of SRM. The proposed encoder has complex structures of incremental and absolute encoder. An each phase inductance profile can be synchronized with 4-bit absolute position signal and incremental pulses are used for speed detection. Low cost and simple manufacturing of SRM encoder is possible.

We discuss two possibilities of using femtosecond pulse lasers as a new interferometric light source fer enhanced precision surface profile metrology. First, a train of ultra-fast laser pulses yields repeated low temporal coherence, which allows performing unequal-path scanning interferometry that is not feasible with white light. Second, high spatial coherence of femtosecond pulse lasers enables to test large size optics in non-symmetric configurations with relatively small size reference surfaces. These two advantages are verified experimentally using Fizeau and Twyman-Green type scanning interferometers.

An all-reflective, simple noncollinear second harmonic (SH) autocorrelator is described for monitoring the shot-to-shot behavior of ultrashort high-power laser pulses. Two mirrors are used for the dispersion-free splitting of a pulse into two halves. One of the mirrors is able to adjust the delay time and angle between two halves of the laser pulse in a nonlinear crystal. We present the possibility of real-time measurement of the pulse duration, peak intensity (or energy), and the pointing jitters of a laser pulse, by analyzing the spatial profile of the SH autocorrelation signal measured by a CCD camera. The measurement of the shot-to-shot variation of those parameters will be important for the detailed characterization of laser accelerated electrons or protons.

2D TOF혈관조영술에서 presaturation RF펄스를 사용하여 정맥피에서 나오는 MR신호를 제거하고 얻은 동맥 angiogram에는 band형태로 동맥이 끊어져 나타나는 현상이 자주 보인다. 일부 동맥에서 피의 흐름은 한 심장 주기 동안에 3번의 펄스를 갖는데, 이 중 가운데 펄스는 짧은 기간 동안 역류를 한다. 이 역류하는 동맥피는 정맥피와 같은 방향이기 때문에 presaturation RF펄스에 의해 정맥피 처럼 saturation이 되어서 imaging slice로 흘러 들어가게 될 수 있다. 특히 이러한 경우가 phase encoding step의 dc 부근에서 발생하게 되면 그 때의 단면 영상에서 동맥이 강조가 될 수 없게 되어, 결과적으로 angiogram에는 그 단면을 지나는 동맥의 신호가 없어서 band 형태로 핏줄이 끊어져 나타나게 된다. Imaging slice와 saturation band와의 간격을 변화 시켜 가면서 angiogram을 얻어 봄으로서 이러한 현상을 실험적으로 확인하였다 나아가 saturation band를 rectangle형태에서 ramp 형태로 변경함으로써 이러한 artifacts를 제거 할 수 있는 방법을 제시하였다

Our conclusions for function evaluation tools of Stroke patients are as follows. 1. Evaluating tools of Activities of Daily Living, Katz Index, Barthel Index, Modified Barthel Index have high validity and reliability because of ease of measuring, high accuracy, consistency, sensitivity and sufficient stastistics, but they mainly measure motor function except sense, mentation, language, and social conception. Therefore cerebrovascular disease and brain injury in trauma patients with lacked acknowledgement and sensation, we are not able to apply these tools. 2. PULSES Profile is a useful scale for measuring the patient's over-all status, upper and lower limb functions, sensory components, excretary functions, and intellectual and emotional adaptabilities. It is recognized as a good, useful tool to evaluate patient's whole function. 3. Motor Assessment Scale was designed to measure the progress of stroke patients. The scale was supplemented with upper arm function items. We believe that the Motor Assessment Scale could be a useful evaluation tool with inter-rater reliability ,test-retest reliability. 4. The existing evaluation tools, Katz Index, Barthel Index, Modified Barthel Index, PULSES Profile, Motor Assessment Scale, mainly measured the rehabilitational motor function of sequela of cerebrovascular patients. On the other hand CNS & INH stroke scale can measure cerebrovascular disease patient's neurologic deficits and over-all stautus, which are recognition ability, speech status, motor function, sensory function, activities of daily living. Those scales have been recognized as useful tools to measure function of cerebrovascular disease patients and have increased in use. 5. Every function evaluation tool was recognized to have some validity and inter-rater, test-retest reliability in items of each evaluation tool and total scores of each evaluation tools, but it is thought that none of these scales have been fully validated and proved reliable. Therefore afterward, the development of a highly reliable rating system may best be accomplished by a careful comparison of several tools, using the same patients and the same observers in order to choose the most reliable items from each. 6. Ideal evaluation tools must have the following conditions; (1) It should show the objective functional statues at the same time. (2) It should be repeated consecutively to know changed function status. (3) It should be easy to observe the treatment program. (4) It should have the same result with another rater to help rater exchange information with treatment team members. (5) It should be practical and simple. (6) The patient should not suffer from the observer.
