Adjustment of clothing pressure for compression wear is critical to the physiological and psychological satisfaction of the wearer; however, there are limited studies on the practical relationship among extensibility of materials, pattern reduction of compression wear and resultant clothing pressure. This study provides consumers and designers with information on clothing pressure using a screening extensibility test suggested by Ziegert and Keil (1988) even for the final products. As the first step, ten commercial products were collected and their size, extensibility and corresponding clothing pressure were analyzed. It was found that clothing pressure around the waist level could be predicted well from the information of Ziegert and Keil's (1988) % extensibility of the material (Z stretch %) and the actual application of Z stretch amount to the pattern reduction rate (applied % of Z stretch), with an $r^2$ of around 0.80, especially at the waist level. However, it was not simple for the case of clothing pressure around the back of the chest level due to the various design variation and the complexity of the anatomical structure around the trapezius.

A Parametric study based on a computer analysis of the lubrication system of a four-cylinder gasoline engine is illustrated. Through the parametric study, the effects of various aeration levels on the change of oil flow rate and pressure are investigated. Also, at high oil temperature and low engine speed, the effect of oil aeration level on oil flow characteristics in lubrication system is investigated. The illustrated results may give to designers the guide lines of oil aeration level for the safe design of engine lubrication systems in terms of minimum pressure at crank oil bore.

For the evaluation of the normalized impact sound pressure level, the reverberation time of the receiving room should be measured. This paper deals with the effect of the time constant of FFT analyzer and the measuring points on reverberation time. It is found that the time constant should be in the range between 10 ms and 35 ms. While the effect of measuring points on the reverberation time is significant when the bandwidth is narrow it is negligible in the evaluation of the normalized impact sound pressure level.

This study analyzed the fabric and product size of the burn patient's custom compression garment and measured the pressure applied by the garment to assess whether proper pressure is being delivered for treatment. The test clothes were presented to the market by body size and commissioned with the same design. The subjects selected four people close to the average body size of men in their 20s determined by 7th Size Korea. The experiment was conducted by wearing a compression suit, performing activities and measuring changes in the pressure of the garment according to changes in posture. The fabric used for the compressive clothing was not ruptured even at 216 kPa, the elasticity recovery rate was measured between 80.5 and 94.5%. The product dimensions of the experimental clothing varied by up to 8cm from brand to brand, requiring the standardization of compression clothing. The experiment showed that four types of compression suit varied in pressure, and the pressure range, excluding the gastric arm (17.9mmHg), was between 2.5-14.1mmHg, which failed to meet the level of pressurization for treatment purposes. The clothing pressure in the chest area dropped when performing movements rather than standing still. This was interpreted to be a result of reduced the adhesion of the compression suit during operation. The peak pressure (31.68mmHg) and the lowest pressure (2.2mmHg) was noted in the scapula, indicating that no pressure was being transmitted on the vertebrae. The pressure of the garment on the right shoulder blade was elevated in a supine position. Because much time is spent laying down, it is necessary for the pattern design to accommodate for the increased clothing pressure on the shoulder blades. Standardization of the level of pressurization for burn patient's custom-made pressure suits for each stage of treatment is urgently required.

Laser has been applied in various diagnostic and therapeutic medical fields. For last few decades, medical low-level laser devices have been introduced in market, but they have limitations which cannot convey enough energy to deep layer of tissues for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes. To address the issue, there have been many studies of using physical and chemical methods; it is one of ways to apply negative or positive pressure to tissue. However, it is hard to apply desired pressure on tissues continuously when practical laser devices arc used. In this study, we introduce a low-level laser probe which allows maintain pressure on skin tissue. Consequently, we are confident that the pressure probe for low-level laser treatment should be a useful tool in order to deliver sufficient energy for practical uses.

Developed is a computer program for the prediction of the aero-acoustic performance characteristics such as discharge pressure, efficiency, power and noise level in the basic design step of axial flow fan. The flow field and the aerodynamic performance of fan are analyzed by using the streamline curvature computing scheme with total pressure loss and flow deviation models. Fan noise is assumed to be generated due to the pressure fluctuations induced by wake vortices of fan blades and to radiate via dipole distribution. The vortex-induced fluctuating pressure on blade surface is calculated by combining thin airfoil theory and the predicted flow field data. The predicted aerodynamic performances, sound pressure level and noise directivity patterns of fan by the present computer program are favorably compared with the test data of actual fan. Furthermore, the present computer program is shown to be very useful in optimizing design variables of fan with high efficiency and low noise level and in analyzing their design sensitivities.

We propose a newly developed automobile sensor monitoring system incorporated with a tire pressure monitoring sensor(TPMS). The RF-transmitter based on a tire pressure sensor, sends a frame data about measured tire-pressure to RF receiver. And the various sensing signals based on sensors such as fuel-level sensor, engine oil level sensor and temperature sensors, are converted into 10-bit digital data. The microprocessor displays converting data such as tire pressure, trip distance, fuel quantity, coolant temperature and car-room temperature, on LCD panel. The proposed system can be successfully adapted to monitoring of the tire pressure and various automobile sensors.

Objective: The current study was to test if the developed sphygmomanometer was working well and blood pressure information could be collected and monitored systematically through the internet. We tested if the sphygmomanometer and services for blood pressure controlled high blood pressure significantly and the ubiquitous monitoring could be used further. Methods: Kyungwon University, KT Co., Gil Medical Center, LIG Nex1 Co., and Sujeong Health Center conducted an ubiquitous high blood control project in Sujeong-gu, Sungnam, Korea from Mar. 5 to May 16. We developed and applied sphygmomanometer. We distributed the devices to 27 high blood pressure patients. The blood pressures of the residents were monitored through the internet when they measured blood pressures in their homes. A nurse monitored and consulted their blood pressures in the monitoring center in Kyungwon University during the demonstration period. The consultant called them and consulted on their blood pressures in few seconds they used the sphygmomanometers. For the significance of change in blood pressure, we tested statistically with Generalized Additive Model(GAM) and Multi-level Analysis. Results: Both GAM and Multi-level Analysis showed that the blood pressures of persons with ubiquitous blood pressure management decreased significantly as time passed. Conclusions: The internet monitoring and services are considered to be promising because most of the participants were satisfied especially because somebody was caring their health. The decrease of blood pressures was significant by GAM and Multi-level Analysis. Thus, we can apply ubiquitous blood pressure management to health promotion projects.

The objective of this study is to investigate experimentally the effect of surface conditions of the plate on the impinging jet noise. The experimental results about the spectrum, the sound pressure level and the directivity are pressented and discussed in relation with the surface conditions. Regardless of the surface conditions, the pure tones of high level are generated at the same frequency band and the overall sound power level of impinging jets is much higher than that of the free jet. However, the velocity dependence of the sound pressure level and the directivity are different between smooth surfaces and rough surfaces. The dependence of sound pressure level on the jet velocity shows that the smooth surface generates quadrupole-type sound like free jets. However, the perforated or the rough surface radiates sound power exactly proportional to the sixth power of the jet velocity, indicating that the source is fixed dipole type. The directivities of 1/3 octave band sound pressure level for both the free and impinging jet show the peak directivity at 115$^\circ$ upstream, probably due to the refraction associated with velocity gradient.

Optimizing the tapping time of a blast furnace is important to a stable operation and life extension. To optimize the tapping time of the blast furnace, the location of Hearth Liquid Level should be recognized. There are several ways to measure the hearth liquid level in the blast furnace, such as Electromotive Force(EMF) measurement, pressure measurement by putting in nitrogen probe and manometry with strain gauge. In this paper, it will be discussed using strain gauge among the three methods. Conventional strain gauge must be revised periodically. Since, internal pressure, temperature of internal refractory material and wind pressure have effect on the strain gauge. However, static pressure value is required to compensate. To solve these problems, this paper suggests finding relationship between Hearth Liquid Level and strain gauge output, adding digital filter in strain gauge. Using the proposed method, it was possible to estimate the hearth liquid level and determine the appropriate tapping time. Usefulness of the proposed method through simulations and experimental results are confirmed.
