Objectives: The information on the depth where pulse wave appears is as important as pulse waveform. The aim of this study was to classify pulse pattern using pressure-height(P-H) volume-curve by 5 applied pressure levels to find out the information on the depth of pulse and interpret the floating & sinking pulse in oriental medical pulse diagnosis. Methods: We used 3 dimensional pulse imaging analyser (DMP-3000, DAEYOMEDI Co., Korea), which measures radial pulse waveforms noninvasively by way of tonometric method at 5 applied pressure levels, and shows P-H volume-curves by applied pressure. 448 subjects were enrolled, pulse waveforms were measured and the P-H volume-curves were gained on the three locations of Chon, Kwan, and Cheok. Results: Gained P-H volume curves were classified into 3 types ; increase type, decrease type, and increase-decrease type. Increase-decrease type appeared more often on Chon and Kwan, while increase type appeared more often on Cheok. In a few cases, decrease-type appeared on Chon and Kawn, however it never appeared on Cheok. Conclusions: Through the classification of pulse by P-H volume-curve, we gained the information on the depth of pulse. We speculate the decrease type as floating pulse, the increase-decrease type as middle pulse, and the increase type as sinking pulse in oriental medical pulse diagnosis. After more researches on P-H volume-curve by applied pressure, the P-H volume-curve may be used as an important factor for pulse diagnosis.

A simple method to derive an optimal pressure curve, characterized by initial pressure, final pressure and pressure path, has been proposed. The initial pressure has been determined from the condition to prevent recoiling phenomenon in the early stage, while the final pressure is from the FE analysis and pressure path is from the punch penetration volume. In order to realize the pressure curve, an open loop control system based on a proportional relief valve has been developed for the renovated CNC hydroforming press. Through the comparison of experiment and analysis, the predicted pressure curve has been verified optimal curve since no defect has been observed.

불포화토의 역학적 성질을 규명하기 위한 가장 기본적인 요소인 함수특성곡선을 연구하기 위하여 대구 팔공산 지역의 화강풍화토를 대상으로 함수특성곡선시험을 수행하였다. 기존의 함수특성곡선 실험은 상재하중과 체적변형의 고려없이 실시하였지만, 본실험은 두요소를 고려하기 위하여 기존의 실험장비인 압력판 추출기를 개량하여 함수특성곡선 실험을 실시하였다. 시험과정에 있어 상재하중은 0, 25, 50, 75, 100kPa을 가하였으며, 체적변형은 각 단계마다 측정하였다. 본 실험의 시료를 통한 함수특성곡선 실험 결과는 상재하중의 증가에 따라 동일한 모관흡수력에서 낮은 체적함수비를 가졌으며, 공기함입치는 증가하였다. 또한 전이영역 구간의 기울기는 감소하는 결과를 나타내었으며 이력현상은 줄어드는 결과를 보였다. 포화도는 상재하중의 증가에 따라 동일한 흡수력에서 큰 값을 나타내었으며 건조과정보다는 습윤과정이 큰 값을 나타내었다. 체적변화를 고려한 함수특성곡선은 미고려한 함수특성곡선보다 미세하게 큰 값을 나타낸다. 본 실험의 실측치와 Fredlund와 Xing(1994)의 이론식은 잘 부합하는 결과를 나타내었으며, 상수값 a, n, m값은 상재하중에 따라 기존의 연구결과와 비슷한 양상을 보였다.

steroid가 폐절제에 의한 대상성증식기의 폐장의 압력-용적곡선에 어떤 영양을 미칠 것인가를 알아보기 위해 실시한 본 실험의 결과를 요약하면 폐절제군은 대조군에 비해 폐용압률이 증가하였고 폐절제후 반대측폐장의 무게는 대조군에 비해 폐절제군이 유의하게 증가하였고 폐절제후 betamethasone을 투여한 군에 있어서는 대조군에 비해서는 증가하였으나 폐절제군보다는 적게 증가하였다. 또한 이러한 결과들은 betamethasone에 의해 폐포표면활성물질의 분비가 증가하였거나 혹은 betamethasone이 폐장실질의 결합조직의 단백대사에 영향을 미쳐 elastic recoil force가 감소하여 생긴 결과라고 생각된다.

Engine analyzer is developed with the aids of personal computer, A/D converter, interfacing signal transducer and data processing computer programs. The objective of this development are that it should firstly be produced at the resonable low price compared with imported one taking advantage of using existing personal computer and printer, and it should also give good quality of performance. For the attainment of this objective, A/D converter should have been developed to meet the price limit of the equipment. The experiment is performed in a 4 cycle 4 cylinder gasoline engine by this analyzer, and all the information which are necessary for the combustion analysis can be obtained through the processing of the pressure data that are stored in the computer. These are pressure-volume curve, pressure-crank angle curve, the rate of pressure rise and heat release versus crank angle curve etc. With this developed experimental system of resonable price, it will be considered that more easy way of engine data pick-up and processing is possible.

The frost heaving pressure can be a problem for weakening of the railway roadbed material. This study was initiated to investigate the soils frost heaving pressure and physical characteristics(Liquid limit, permeability, SEM analysis) resulting from freezing and freezing-thawing cycle process. Therefore, upon freezing a saturated soil in a closed-system from the top, a considerable pressure was developed. Weathered granite soils, sandy soil were used in the laboratory freezing test which sometimes subjected to thermal gradients under closed-systems. The frost heaving pressure arising within the soil samples and the temperature of the samples inside were monitored with elapsed time. The degree of saturation versus heaving pressure curve is also presented for weathered granite soil and the maximum pressure is closely related to this curve. Based on the laboratory test results, fine-grained soils with strong attractive forces between soil grains md water molecules, and additional water is attracted into the pores leading to further volume changes and ice segregation.

In order to determine the effects of hydrostatic pressure on the mechanical behavior of graphite fiber reinforced composites, the modulus, fracture stress(maximum stress), and fracture strain of graphite/epoxy composites have been determined as a function of pressure. Composite specimens used in this study were 90-deg unidirectional and had a 60% fiber volume fraction. Compressive tests under five different pressure levels were conducted. The result showed the modulus measured from as initial slope of stress-strain curve increased bilinearly with pressure with a break at 200 MPa. It was also found that fracture stress and fracture strain increased in a linear fashion with pressure.

Plant water status during growth is directly and indirectly associated with seed yield. The objective of the present study was to determine the genotypic differences in leaf water characteristics at an early growth stage of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill] plants through the pressure-bomb technique. Measurements of water potential as well as relative water content (RWC) were made at the third leaf from the fully-expanded top leaf of eight different soybean genotypes grown for 31 to 35 days after field emergence. On the basis of the modified exponential model, pressure-volume (PV) curves were fitted well ($R^2$=0.92＊＊ to 0.99＊＊ for the curvi-linear region and R=0.67＊＊ to 0.96＊＊ for the linear region), indicating that a segmented model using PROC NLIN of SAS could be used effectively to estimate the leaf water characteristics. The regression analysis for the pressure-volume (PV) curve revealed genotypic variation in the solute potential at saturation (Ψ$_{s,sat}$ :-10.7 to -14.8 bar), solute potential at incipient plasmolysis (Ψ$_{s,ip}$ : -14.3 to -18.3 bar), RWC at incipient plasmolysis (RW $C_{ip}$ : 83.3 to 91.7%), high integrated turgor pressure from saturation to plasmolysis ( $_1$$^{b}$ : 0.39 to 0.81), and maximum volumetric modulus of elasticity ($\varepsilon$$_{max}$ : 150 to 445 bar).).

축전이기법을 사용하는 체적압력판추출기(이하 체적압력판)로 실내시험실에서 함수특성곡선을 구할 수 있다. 체적압력판을 사용하면, 매 단계마다 공기압을 차단하지 않고 시험하는 동안 흙시료로부터 추출되는 간극수의 부피를 연속적으로 측정할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 반면에, 시료내 간극수압을 일정하게 유지하기 위하여, 에어 트랩, 발라스트 튜브, 저장뷰렛, 진공펌프 등을 사용하는 체적압력판의 추출수 부피측정은 매우 복잡하고 지루한 작업을 수반한다. 이러한 문제점을 개선하고자 수정체적압력판을 개발하여 풍화잔류토에 대한 시험을 수행하였다. 수정 시험기는 매트릭석션의 범위에 따라 ASTM D 6836-02의 Method A와 Method B 두 방법 모두 사용하여 추출수의 부피를 측정할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 수정 시험기의 측정원리, 개선점, 시험결과 및 토의를 서술하였다.

This study presents an aerodynamic design and an experimental performance test of a turbo air compressor consisted of mixed-flow impeller and curved diffuser for the PEM fuel cell vehicle application. Many studies compare the efficiency, cost or noise level of high-pressure and low-pressure operation of PEM fuel cell systems. Pressure ratio 2.2:1 is considered as design target The goal of compressor design is to enlarge the flow margin of compressor from surge to choke mass flow rate to cover the operational envelope of FCV. Large-scale rig test is performed to evaluate the compressor performance and to compare the effects of compressor exit pipe volume to stall or surge characteristics. The results show that the mixed-flow compressor designed has large flow margin, and the flow margin of compressor configuration with small exit volume is larger than that with large exit volume.
