Background : Skin injuries, such as lacerations due to trauma, are relatively common, and patients are very concerned about the resulting scars. Recently, the use of ablative and non-ablative lasers based on the fractional approach has been used to treat scars. In this study, the authors demonstrated the efficacy and safety of ablative fractional resurfacing (AFR) for traumatic scars using a 2,940-nm erbium: yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Er:YAG) laser for traumatic scars after primary repair during the early posttraumatic period. Methods : Twelve patients with fifteen scars were enrolled. All had a history of facial laceration and primary repair by suturing on the day of trauma. Laser therapy was initiated at least 4 weeks after the primary repair. Each patient was treated four times at 1-month intervals with a fractional ablative 2,940-nm Er:YAG laser using the same parameters. Posttreatment evaluations were performed 1 month after the fourth treatment session. Results : All 12 patients completed the study. After ablative fractional laser treatment, all treated portions of the scars showed improvements, as demonstrated by the Vancouver Scar Scale and the overall cosmetic scale as evaluated by 10 independent physicians, 10 independent non-physicians, and the patients themselves. Conclusions : This study shows that ablative fractional Er:YAG laser treatment of scars reduces scars fairly according to both objective results and patient satisfaction rates. The authors suggest that early scar treatment using AFR can be one adjuvant scar management method for improving the quality of life of patients with traumatic scars.

In this study, low temperature waste heat recovery heat exchanger was developed using a principle of self-excited oscillating heat pipe. The heat exchanger of serpentine type was composed of extruded flat aluminum tube with 6 channels (3 nm$\times$ 2.75nm) and louvered fin. The heat transfer area density of heat exchanger was $331.9 m^2/m^3$. Working fluid is R141b and charge ratio was 40% by volume. Heat transfer rate and the effectiveness of heat exchanger was primary concern of this study. As a result, the effectiveness of heat exchanger was about 0.4-0.67, and recovered waste heat rate was about 4.5 kW per one unit of heat exchanger.

Actual trends in automotive industry lead to an increase use of lightweight structures imposing the need for high strength aluminum alloys with complex shape. In the electromagnetic stirring process, it has many merits which are the exact control ability about material processing and a good point of the protection of environment comparison with the mechanical stirring. The interface of cells consisting of primary particle formed by the electromagnetic stirring due to particle regrowth during cooling the alloy. By electromagnetic stirring process, the microstructure of material has a good point, also it can control the material processing exactly.

The combined stirring method to uniform distribution of particle is consisted of two strring force both electro-magnetic stirring generated from induction heating and mechanical stirring with graphite stirrer. PMMC billets were fabricated with the volume fractions ranged from 0% to 20% and particle sizes ranged from 14$\mu\textrm{m}$ to 25$\mu\textrm{m}$. It is important to control the size of primary ${\alpha}$-AI solid particles because it could become the cause of the particle pushing or capture phenomena from the fact that secondary dendrite arm spacing size depends on the cooling rate during the solidification in hypoeutectic AI-Si alloy.

It is well known that making electric motors is very difficult in chapter 2, "Electric Current and Magnetic Field", natural science textbook 6-1 in primary school. In the present paper, we propose a new and successful method for making them. The most important point is that iron cores are not used in making electromagnets. This resolves the problem that both poles of electromagnet can be attracted by any pole of permanent magnet because of iron core in the electromagnet. The thick enamel wire is used as arms of armature so that they can support the electromagnet stably and we can reliably strip off the skin of the enamel wires, completely for one end and half for the other end of the enamel wires coming from the electromagnet. In addition, we suggest the ring-type support made of aluminum foil and the M-shaped support made of thick enamel wire that can substitute for the M-shaped copper wire support for armature. armature.

For a large scale civil and architectural structures, mainly steel, concrete and aluminum have been used and weight and corrosion of materials became a major concern. Designing with composite materials is very much complicated. Simple classical theory may yield good results for selecting "initial" sections for preliminary design. D. H. Kim proposed to use the quasi-isotropic constants by Tsai for the preliminary design of the composite primary structures for the civil construction. Also he made simple equation using correction factor. In this paper, the simple formulas developed by D. H. Kim to obtain "exact" values of the natural frequencies of [ABBCAAB]r laminate are compared with Whitney's equations. Also natural frequencies of the plate with varying aspect ratios and reinforcing fiber orientations, are compared with natural frequencies of bean. This work can be a guideline to obtain data in many other cases.

The plasma vapor coatings on two kinds of die steels have been carried out in order to identify the most optimized conditions. When TiN or TiAlN coatings were carried out on the substrates, the coating layer thicknesses were not significantly changed, and the optimized coating thickness was identified as ~ 5 μm. When the optimized coating conditions and stress analysis were applied to the primary piston dies for fabrication of aluminum cylinders, an extended life time of the die was observed. The methodology for extending the life time of dies was discussed in terms of microstructures and stress analysis.

This study aimed at analyzing the trend of carbon dioxide emission for direct and indirect areas by using inter industry relations table between 2000, 2003 and 2005 in the key building materials and components. Results of this study are as follows; First, the material and components for this study was selected in 20 industries of products such as sand, gravel, cement, concrete articles, rebar, and steel bar. Second, among the 20 selected key building materials, the group with the highest carbon-dioxide emission was shown in ready-mixed concrete, concrete articles, and primary aluminum goods. Third, as a result of analyzing the changes to the units of carbon dioxide emission according to passage of time, the number of items which is changed in such as sustained increase or decrease over time was insignificant in carbon-emission change trend.

A literature review was conducted to survey informations available on the welding metallurgy of aluminum alloys and its effect on fusion weldability, especially on solidification cracking and pore formation. Solidification cracking behavior of Al weld is a complicate matter as compared to other high alloys, where a relatively simple Fe-X(most detrimental elements S, P, B, Si, etc) binary diagram can be successfully applicable. Both additive and synergistic effects of elements should be considered together. A same element play a different role from system to system. Porosity, caused by hydrogen contamination of the weld is one of the most troublesome welding problems. The primary sources of hydrogen are believed to be an absorbed moisture on the filler metal or base metal and in the shielding gas. It is extremely important that reliable quality-control procedures be employed to eliminate all possible sources of hydrogen contamination. Selection of proper process and parameters is sometimes more important than controlling of alloying elements in order to make a defect-free weld.
