  • The supply chain management (SCM) systems have emerged as strong managerial tools for manufacturing firms in enhancing competitive strength. Despite of large investments in the SCM systems, many companies are not fully realizing the promised benefits from the systems. A review of literature on adoption, implementation and success factor of IOS (inter-organization systems), EDI (electronic data interchange) systems, shows that this issue has been examined from multiple theoretic perspectives. And many researchers have attempted to identify the factors which influence the success of system implementation. However, the existing studies have two drawbacks in revealing the determinants of systems implementation success. First, previous researches raise questions as to the appropriateness of research subjects selected. Most SCM systems are operating in the form of private industrial networks, where the participants of the systems consist of two distinct groups: focus companies and vendors. The focus companies are the primary actors in developing and operating the systems, while vendors are passive participants which are connected to the system in order to supply raw materials and parts to the focus companies. Under the circumstance, there are three ways in selecting the research subjects; focus companies only, vendors only, or two parties grouped together. It is hard to find researches that use the focus companies exclusively as the subjects probably due to the insufficient sample size for statistic analysis. Most researches have been conducted using the data collected from both groups. We argue that the SCM success factors cannot be correctly indentified in this case. The focus companies and the vendors are in different positions in many areas regarding the system implementation: firm size, managerial resources, bargaining power, organizational maturity, and etc. There are no obvious reasons to believe that the success factors of the two groups are identical. Grouping the two groups also raises questions on measuring the system success. The benefits from utilizing the systems may not be commonly distributed to the two groups. One group's benefits might be realized at the expenses of the other group considering the situation where vendors participating in SCM systems are under continuous pressures from the focus companies with respect to prices, quality, and delivery time. Therefore, by combining the system outcomes of both groups we cannot measure the system benefits obtained by each group correctly. Second, the measures of system success adopted in the previous researches have shortcoming in measuring the SCM success. User satisfaction, system utilization, and user attitudes toward the systems are most commonly used success measures in the existing studies. These measures have been developed as proxy variables in the studies of decision support systems (DSS) where the contribution of the systems to the organization performance is very difficult to measure. Unlike the DSS, the SCM systems have more specific goals, such as cost saving, inventory reduction, quality improvement, rapid time, and higher customer service. We maintain that more specific measures can be developed instead of proxy variables in order to measure the system benefits correctly. The purpose of this study is to find the determinants of SCM systems success in the perspective of vendor companies. In developing the research model, we have focused on selecting the success factors appropriate for the vendors through reviewing past researches and on developing more accurate success measures. The variables can be classified into following: technological, organizational, and environmental factors on the basis of TOE (Technology-Organization-Environment) framework. The model consists of three independent variables (competition intensity, top management support, and information system maturity), one mediating variable (collaboration), one moderating variable (government support), and a dependent variable (system success). The systems success measures have been developed to reflect the operational benefits of the SCM systems; improvement in planning and analysis capabilities, faster throughput, cost reduction, task integration, and improved product and customer service. The model has been validated using the survey data collected from 122 vendors participating in the SCM systems in Korea. To test for mediation, one should estimate the hierarchical regression analysis on the collaboration. And moderating effect analysis should estimate the moderated multiple regression, examines the effect of the government support. The result shows that information system maturity and top management support are the most important determinants of SCM system success. Supply chain technologies that standardize data formats and enhance information sharing may be adopted by supply chain leader organization because of the influence of focal company in the private industrial networks in order to streamline transactions and improve inter-organization communication. Specially, the need to develop and sustain an information system maturity will provide the focus and purpose to successfully overcome information system obstacles and resistance to innovation diffusion within the supply chain network organization. The support of top management will help focus efforts toward the realization of inter-organizational benefits and lend credibility to functional managers responsible for its implementation. The active involvement, vision, and direction of high level executives provide the impetus needed to sustain the implementation of SCM. The quality of collaboration relationships also is positively related to outcome variable. Collaboration variable is found to have a mediation effect between on influencing factors and implementation success. Higher levels of inter-organizational collaboration behaviors such as shared planning and flexibility in coordinating activities were found to be strongly linked to the vendors trust in the supply chain network. Government support moderates the effect of the IS maturity, competitive intensity, top management support on collaboration and implementation success of SCM. In general, the vendor companies face substantially greater risks in SCM implementation than the larger companies do because of severe constraints on financial and human resources and limited education on SCM systems. Besides resources, Vendors generally lack computer experience and do not have sufficient internal SCM expertise. For these reasons, government supports may establish requirements for firms doing business with the government or provide incentives to adopt, implementation SCM or practices. Government support provides significant improvements in implementation success of SCM when IS maturity, competitive intensity, top management support and collaboration are low. The environmental characteristic of competition intensity has no direct effect on vendor perspective of SCM system success. But, vendors facing above average competition intensity will have a greater need for changing technology. This suggests that companies trying to implement SCM systems should set up compatible supply chain networks and a high-quality collaboration relationship for implementation and performance.

  • 포푸라와 일본잎갈나무는 속성조림 수종으로 적극 장려되고 있으나 구조용재로서 저재질인 까닭에 그 이용도가 제한되고 있다. 따라서 이들의 이용도 증진과 수요의 안정화를 위하여 대량으로 소비되는 일반 건축용재로 이용할 수 있는 형질의 개량과 강도 증진을 목적으로 임업시험장에서 1967년부터 포푸라와 일본잎갈나무의 집성재 제조조건을 구명하기 위하여 본 시험연구를 시작하여 현재까지 포푸라와 일본잎갈나무의 접착, scarf 접착성능과 실대형통직, 만곡 집성재의 제조조건 및 이 수종 구성집성재 제조에 의한 포푸라재의 집성강도 증진과 lamina 형질이 집성 강도에 마치는 영향을 구명한 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 접착제 Resorcinol Plyophen #6000에 의한 미류(Populus deltoides)와 일본잎갈나무(Larix leptolepis)의 단일 수종, 이수종 접착성능, 방부처리, 미류의 접착성능과 미류와 일본잎갈나무의 scarf 접속 정착성능 및 방부처리, 마류의 scarf 접착성능을 구명한 결과 1.1 Block 전단 및 안장선단 시험에 의한 접착성능은 평균 목파율이 65%로 우수하였고, 미류는 촉단면이 경단면보다, 일본잎갈나무는 경단면이 촉단면 보다 접착성이 양호하였다(표 1, 2참조). 1. 2 방부제 Na-PCP는 resorcinol 수지 접착제의 접착력에 영향 하였으나 집성재 제조에 요구되는 접착력에는 영향하지 않았다(표 3, 4참조). 1. 3 Plane scarf joint 접착에 있어서 안전한 scarf비는 일본잎갈나무 1/12이상, 미류는 1/6이상이 요구되고 방부처리 미류의 plane scarf joint 접착의 안전 scarf 비도 무처리재와 같이 1/6 이상이 요구되었다(표 5, 6, 7 및 8참조). 2. 접착제 Resorcinol Plyophen #6000에 의한 미류와 일본잎갈나무의 단일 수종 및 이수종구성 집성재의 상대 접착력과 삶음반복 접착력 및 접착층의 박리시험에 의한 접착성능을 구명한 결과 2.1 실대형 통직, 만곡 집성재의 block 전단 상태 접착강도는 허용 최소상태 접착강도의 3배 이상이였으며 삶음반복 접착 강도는 상태접착 강도의 1/2로 감소 되었으나, 허용 최소 기준 삶음반복 접착강도의 2배 이상으로 실대형 내수 집성재 제조의 안전성이 확인되였다(표 9 및 10참조). 2.2 실대형 통직, 만곡집성재의 박리율은 미류, 이수종(일본잎갈나무+미류), 일본잎갈나무의 순으로 높았으나 최대치는 일본잎갈나무의 통직집성재(3.5%)로서 허용 최대 기준율보다 적었다.(표 11 참조) 3. urea 수지 접착제에 의한 이태리포푸라(Populus euramericana)와 일본잎갈나무의 단수종, 이수종 및 lamina 형질에 따른 5 ply 구성 통직 접성재의 휨강도 시험, 압축강도 시험에 의한 집성강도와 접착성능을 구명한 결과 3.1 집성강도가 요구되는 건축 구조용재를 목적으로 이태리포푸라와 일본잎갈나무의 이수종 구성 집성재를 제조할 때에는 수종 구성을 L(일본잎갈나무)+P(이태리포푸라)+L+P+L로 하는 것이 양호하였다.(표 12참조) 3.2 수심과 옹이를 가지는 lamina로 구성된 집성재의 경성 강도는 무결점 lamina로 구성된 집성재 강도보다 현저히 강도가 감소되므로 강도가 요구되는 구조용재로서의 집성재 제조에는 이들 결점 부재의 분산 집성이 필요하였다.(표 13참조) 3.3 실대형 통직 집성재의 FPL 전단 상태 접착강도는 허용 최소기준 상태 접착강도의 2배 이상으로 urea 수지접착제로서 이을 수종의 내장주조용 집성재 제조가 가능하였다.

  • 한국(韓國)에 있어서 벼 잎집무늬마름병(病)의 발생변동(發生變動), 병원균(病原菌)의 배양적(培養的) 특성(特性)과 병원성(病原性), 발병환경(發病環境), 재배법(栽培法)과 발병관계(發病關係), 품종(品種)의 저항성(抵抗性) 등(等)에 관(關)하여 연구(硏究)한 결과(結果)를 요약(要約)하면 다음과 같다. 1. 한국(韓國)에 있어서 벼 잎집무늬마름병(病)의 발생면적(發生面積)은 다비재배(多肥栽培), 조기조식재배(早期早植栽培) 및 통일계품종(統一系品種)의 확대보급등(擴大普及等)으로 인(因)하여 매년(每年) 증가(增加)되었고 특(特)히 1971년(年)부터 전국적(全國的)으로 급격(急激)히 발생면적(發生面積)이 증가(增加)되어서 1976년(年)에는 전체수도재배면적(全體水稻栽培面積)의 약 65.2%에서 본병(本病)이 발생(發生)하였다. 2. 우리나라에 분포(分布)하는 벼 잎집무늬마름병균(病菌)의 배양적(培養的) 성질(性質) 및 병원성(病原性)에는 많은 변이(變異)가 있었으며 병원균(病原菌)의 생육최적(生育最適) 온도(溫度)도 $25^{\circ}C$에서 $30^{\circ}C$사이로 균주간(菌株間)에 차이(差異)가 있었다. 한편 병원균(病原菌)의 배양적(培養的) 성질(性質)과 병원성(病原性)에는 상관관계(相關關係)가 없었다. 3. 잎집무늬마름병균(病菌)의 PDA배지상(培地上)에서의 균사생장(菌絲生長)은 채집지(採集地)의 기온(氣溫)과 밀접(密接)한 관계(關係)가 있었다. 즉 채집지(採集地)의 기온(氣溫)이 높은 지역(地域)의 균주(菌株)들은 기온(氣溫)이 낮은 지역(地域)의 균주(菌株)들에 비(比)해 $35^{\circ}C$ PDA배지(培地)에서 균사생장(菌絲生長)이 양호(良好)하였고 반대로 $12^{\circ}C$ PDA배지상(培地上)에서는 기온(氣溫)이 낮은 지역(地域)에서 채집(採集)한 균주(菌株)들이 기온(氣溫)이 높은 지역(地域)에서 채집(採集)한 균주(菌株)들 보다 균사생장(菌絲生長)이 양호(良好)하였다. 4. 잎집무늬마름병균(病菌)을 접종(接種)한 수도엽(水稻葉)으로부터 얻은 Pectin polygalacturonase 및 Cellulase의 역가(力價)는 접종(接種)3일(日)째에 최대(最大)였고 Pectin methylestrase의 역가(力價)는 접종(接種) 4일(日)째에 최대(最大)였으며 병원성(病原性)이 강(强)한 균주(菌株)에서는 Pectin methylestrase의 활성(活性)이 높은 경향(傾向)이었고 병원성(病原性)이 약한 균주(菌株)에서는 Pectin methylestrase의 활성(活性)이 낮은 경향(傾向)이었으나 다른 효소(酵素)들은 병원성(病原性)과 관계(關係)가 없었다. 5. 배지(培地)에 형성(形成)된 균핵(菌核)을 건조처리(乾燥處理)하였을 경우(境遇)의 저온저항성(低溫抵抗性)은 매우 강(强)하여 $-20^{\circ}C$에서도 발아력(發芽力)을 상실(喪失)치 않았으나 습윤처리(濕潤處理) 하였을 경우(境遇)에는 저항성(抵抗性)이 매우 약(弱)하여 $-5^{\circ}C$에서도 발아력(發芽力)을 상실(喪失)하였다. 포장(圃場)에서 월동(越冬)한 균핵(菌核)의 발아율(發芽率)도 답토양(沓土壤)의 건습(乾濕)에 따라 18%~70%의 차이(差異)를 나타내며 담수상태(湛水狀態)에서 월동(越冬)한 균핵(菌核)은 건조(乾燥)한 토양(土壤)에서 월동(越冬)한 균핵(菌核)보다 발아율(發芽率)이 낮았다. 6. 잡초(雜草)에 대(對)한 기생성(寄生性)을 조사(調査)하였던 바 벗풀(Sagittaria trifolia L.), 물달개비(Monochoria vaginalis Presl), 여뀌(Polygonum hydropiper L.). 피(Echinochloa crusgalli P. Beauv), 한련초(Eclipta prostrata L.), 강아지풀(Septaria viridis P. Beauv.), 좀바랭이(Digitaria sangvinalis Scapoli) 등(等)에서 잎집무늬마름병반(病斑)이 형성(形成)되었다. 7. 질소배비구(窒素倍肥區)에서는 잎집무늬마름병(病)의 피해(被害)가 증가(增加)하였고 가리배비구(加里倍肥區)에서는 감소(減少)하였으나 규산시용구(硅酸施用區)에서는 피해감소(被害減少)의 효과(效果)가 없었다. 규산시용구(硅酸施用區)에서는 도체내(稻體內)의 질소함량(窒素含量)과 전분함량(澱粉含量)이 다같이 감소(減少)하였다. 8. 생육전기(生育前期)의 이병경율(罹病莖率)은 밀식구(密植區)가 높았으나 생육후기(生育後期)에는 소식구(疎植區)의 1주당(株當) 분얼수(分蘖數)가 많아 이병경율(罹病莖率) 및 피해도(被害度)가 높아졌으며 주당(株當) 1본식(本植)한 구(區)에서는 피해(被害)가 적었다. 9. 잎집무늬마름병(病)에 대(對)한 수도(水稻) 품종(品種)의 피해도차이(被害度差異)는 출수일수(出穗日數)와 밀접(密接)한 관계(關係)가 있었다. 즉 출수일수(出穗日數)와 피해도(被害度)와의 상관관계(相關關係)는 6월(月)13일(日) 이앙(移秧)한 구(區)에서는 r=-0.707이었고 6월(月) 25일(日) 이앙(移秧)한 구(區)에서는 r=-0.496으로 비교적 높은 상관(相關)을 나타내어 출수(出穗)가 빠른 것이 피해(被害)가 크고 낮은 것이 피해(被害)가 적은 경향(傾向)이었다. 또한 본병(本病)은 분얼(分蘖)이 많은 품종(品種)일수록 피해(被害)가 심(甚)하였다. 10. 생육전기(生育前期)의 이병경율(罹病莖率)은 출수후(出穗後)의 피해도(被害度)와 상관(相關)이 없었으나 생육후기(生育後期)의 이병경율(罹病莖率)은 피해도(被害度)와 상관(相關)이 높았다.

  • 우리나라에서의 벼 줄무늬잎마름병의 발생, 피해, 기생범위, 전염 및 방제에 관하여 1965년부터, 1974년까지 실시한 연구결과를 다음과 같이 보고한다. 1. 발생 못자리에서 줄무늬잎마름병의 피해는 $1.3-8\%$였고 포장에서는 입도중의 발병주율보다 재생도에서의 발생율이 높았으며 보통기재배보다도 조기재배에서 발병이 많았다. 또 포장에서 발병주의 분포는 대체로 휴반가까이에 많은 경향이었다. 벼 엽기별 피해에서 라병성인 일본계 벼의 경우 못자리 때인 3엽기에서 7엽기까지는 감염되면 $100\%$ 고사하였으며 9엽기에서는 $50\%$, 11엽기는 $20\%$, 13엽기 이후에는 고사주를 볼 수 없었다. 참복기간은 3-7엽기에서는 7-15일이었고 9-15엽기에서는 15-30일이었다. 저항성인 통일벼의 경우 1.5-5엽기 접종구는 비교적 발병이 많았으나 9엽기 이후부터는 현저히 떨어져 15엽기 이후는 발병을 거의 볼 수 없었다. 그리고 감염된 것은 초장이 짧고 등숙율과 임실비율이 떨어지는 경향이었다. 2. 기주범위 기주범위를 구명하기 위하여 작물과 목초 및 잡초 36종을 공시하여 아래와 같이 21종의 기주를 밝혀 내었다. 작물: 벼, 보리, 밀 , 귀리, 라이맥, 조, 옥수수, 기장, 참피 목초: 티모시, 빗살대, 이타리안라이그라스, 패래니 알라이그라스, 죤슨그라스, 슈단그라스 잡초 : 들피, 겨피, 방울피, 잠자리피, 개미피, 바랭이, 민바랭이, 좀바랭이, 방동사니대가리, 강아지풀, 비노리, 참새, 포아풀, 독새풀, 우산대바랭이, 개보리, 겨풀, 쇠풀, 조개풀, 넓은 잎 개수염은 새로운 기주로 밝혀졌다. 3. 충매전염 우리나라의 애멸구화기는 5회였으며 수원에서의 제2회성충 최성기는 6월 20일 경이고 제3회성충 최성기는 7월 30일 경이었다. 진주는 수원보다 제2회성충 최성기가 5-7일 빨랐고 진주에서는 제3회성충 최성기의 발생량이 많은 것이 달랐다. 애멸구 세대별 보독충율은 월동약충이 $10-15\%$였고 제1세대유충은 $9\%$, 제2회성충은 $17\%$, 제2세대유충은 $8\%$, 나머지 화기에서는 약 $10\%$였는데 보독충율은 남부지방보다 높은 경향이었다. 1966년부터 1970년생 사이의 애멸구 보독충율은 해에 따라 다소 차가 있었으며 화기별로는 제2회성충과 제3회성충의 보독충율이 높았다. 분리한 애멸구보독충을 재분리하여 이를 교배하였더니 차대에서는 보독충율이 $90\%$인 애멸구를 얻을 수 있었으며 애멸구충령별로는 3, 4, 5령충의 감염능력이 높았고 애멸구 무독충의 바이러스 재획득율은 평균$7.9\%$였고 여기에서 얻어진 친화성계통이라 할지라고 3회접종시험결과 계속하여 3회까지 벼에 바이러스를 매개하지 않았다. 또 애멸구보독충의 감염최적온도는 $25-30^{\circ}C$였으며, $15^{\circ}C$이하에는 감염이 일어나지 않을때도 있었다. 그리고 애멸구기생봉의 기생율은 6월부터 8월말까지 $5-48\%$였으며 7월 10일경이 $32-48\%$로서 가장 높았다.

  • 발파(發破)에 있어서 천공배치(穿孔配置)는 발파효과에 영향(影響)을 미치는 가장 중요(重要)한 요소중(要素中)의 하나다. Burn-cut 의 폭발(爆發)의 여러 요소(要素)에 관(關)한 연구(硏究)는 Brown, Cook에 의(依)해 발표(發表)된 바 있으나 본연구(本硏究)에 있어서는 Burn-cut 와 Pyramid-cut의 천공배치(穿孔配置)의 대비(對比)와 폭원(爆源)과 자유면(自由面)사이의 역학적(力學的) 응력해석(應力解析)에 중점(重點)을 두어 이등교수(伊藤敎授)가 전개(展開)한 이론(理論)에서 다루지 않은 주정천공배치(週正穿孔配置)에 의(依)한 Burn-cut의 효과을 연결(連結)시켰다. 종래(從來)의 이론(理論)에 의(衣)하면 단일자유면발파(單一自由面發破)에 있어서는 압축응력외(壓縮應力外)에 자유면(自由面)에서 반사(反射)되는 인장응력(引張應力)의 영향(影響)을 추가(追加)로 받는다. 본(本) 신천공(新穿孔) 배치(配置)에 의(依)한 Burn-cut는 자유면수(自由面數)의 증가(增加)와 거리(距離)의 축소(縮少)를 꾀하므로서 이효과(效果)는 더욱 증대(增大)된다. 이와 같은 효과를 위(爲)해서는 다음 두가지 점(點)을 고려해야 한다. 첫째 심기공(心技孔)의 무장약공(無裝藥孔)은 보조응력(補助應力)을 크게 하기위(爲)해 가능(可能)한 대구경(大口徑)으로 깊게 천공(穿孔)해야 한다. 둘째 각 심기공간(心技孔間)의 거리(距離)를 접근(接近)시켜 완전(完全) 발파(發破)를 기(期)해야 한다. 그 까닭은 구경(口徑)이 증가(增加)됨에 따라 2차(次) 자유면(自由面)은 넓어지고 거리가 가까울수록 장약공(裝藥孔)과 무장약공(無裝藥孔)사이의 인장응력(引張應力)은 더욱 발달(發達)되기 때문이다. 선진국(先進國)에서는 심기공(心技孔)사이의 거리(距離)를 4"로 함이 이상적(理想的)이라고 알려지고 있으나 본실험(本實驗)에 의(依)하면 더 욱 근접(近接)될수록 파괴암석(破壞岩石)이 증가(增加)되고 굴진장(掘進長)도 깊어짐이 밝혀졌다. 나아가서는 굴진장(掘進長)을 더욱 증대(增大)시키기 위(爲)해 Burn-cut로 부터 Large hole Burn-cut를 개발(開發)하여 발파회수(發破回數) max 7회(回)/일(日)로서 1발파당(發破當) 3.1m까지 시도(試圖)함으로서 고속도굴진(高速度掘進)의 기원(起源)을 마련했다. 또한 대구경(大口徑) Burn-cut에서는 큰 저항(抵抗)을 극복하기 위해 금속초유폭약(金屬硝油爆藥)을 사용(使用)함이 더욱 효과적(效果的)임이 입증(立證)됐다. 최근(最近)에 와서 저렴(低廉)한 가격(價格)과 취급안전(取扱安全)으르 각광을 받고있는 AN-FO는 비료용 또는 공업용(工業用) 초안(硝安)에 연료유(燃料油)를 혼합(混合)한 것으로서 외관(雷管)만으로는 순감(純感)하여 폭발(爆發)하지 않으나 Gelatin Dynamite등(等)의 폭발성(爆發性) 예감제(銳感劑)에 의(依)해 발파공내(發破孔內)에서 일단 기폭(起爆)되면 종래(從來)의 초안폭약(硝安爆藥)에 상당(相當)한 위력(威力)을 발휘(發揮)케 한다. AN-FO 폭제(爆劑)의 성능(性能)에 관(關)해서는 많은 보고(報告)가 있었으나 본(本) 실험(實驗)에 의(依)하면 초유혼합비(硝油混合比)는 분상(粉狀)은 93.5:6.5, prill상(狀)은 94:6이 최적(最適)이며 분상(粉狀) AN-FO는 prill상(狀) AN-FO보다 항상(恒常) 폭속(爆速)이 높다. 또한 기폭감도(起爆感度), 충격감도(衝擊感度), 진거감도(塵據感度) 등(等) 제감도(諸感度)는 타화약(他火藥)에 비(比)해 몹시 경감(鏡感)하며 전폭성(傳爆性)은 prill상(狀)이 분상(粉狀)보다 우수(優秀)함을 얻었다. 발파후(發破後) Gas도 양호(良好)하며 AN-FO는 제조후(製造後) 7일(日) 전후(前後)가 최대효과를 갖는다. 종래(從來) AN-FO는 지난 여러해 동안 로천굴(露天掘)에만 사용(使用)하여 왔으나 필자(筆者)는 AN-FO의 기초성능시험(基礎性能試驗)을 토대(土臺)로 이를 이용(利用)한 신종폭제(新種爆劑)로서 금속초유폭약(金屬硝油爆藥)과 수중폭약(水中爆藥)을 발전(發展)시켰다. 금속초유(金屬硝油)의 폭약(爆藥)은 AN-FO와 Al 금속분말의 혼합물(混合物)이며 수중폭약(水中爆藥)은 종래폭약(從來爆藥)과 AN-FO로 제조(製造)한 바 이에 관(關)해서는 다른 논문(論文)에 기술(記述)했다. 본(本) 연구(硏究)에 있어서는 단일자유면(單一自由面) 발파(發破)에 있어서 격유폭약류(隔油爆藥類)를 사용(使用)한바 그 효과(效果)가 매우 양호(良好)하였음을 확인(確認)하였다.

  • The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow conditions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experimental measurements were in good agreement with numerical results except in flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE: graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compliance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70$\pm$1.32mmHg/min)compared to CF dialyzers(4.32$\pm$0.55mmHg/min)(p<0.05). However, there was no observable difference in the UFR between the two dialyzers. Neither APD nor UFR showed any significant increase with an increasing number of reuses for up to more than 20reuses. A substantial number of failures observed in APD(larger than 20mmHe/min)on the reused dialyzers(2 out of 40 CP and S out 26 C-DAK) were attributed to the Possible damage on the fibers. The CF 15-11 HFDs which failed APD test did not show changes in the UFR compared to normal dialyzers indicating that APD is a more sensitive test than UFR test to evaluate the integrity of the fibers. 30527 T00401030527 ^x For quantitative measurement of reflected light from a clinical diagnostic strip, a prototype old reflectance photometer was designed. The strip loader and cassette were made to obtain more accurate reflectance parameters. The strip was illuminated at 45˚c through optical fiber and the intensity of reflected light was determined at rectanguLat angle using a photodiode. The kubelka-munk coefficient and reflection optical density were determined ar four different wavelengths(500, 550, 570 and 610nm) for blood glucose strip. For higher concentration than 300mg/41 about glucose, a saturation state of abforbance was observed at 500, 550 and 570nm. The correlation between glucose concentration and parameters was the best at 610nm. 30535 T00401030535 ^x Radiation-induced fibrosarcoma tumors were grown on the flanks of C3H mice. The mice were divided into two groups. One group was injected with Photofrin II, intravenously (2.5mg/kg body weight). The other group received no Photofrin II. Mice from both groups were irradialed for approximately 15 minutes at 100, 300, or 500 mW/cm2 with the argon (488nm/514.5 nm), dye(628nm) and gold vapor (pulsed 628 nm) laser light. A photosensitizer behaved as an added absorber. Under our experimental conditions, the presence of Photolfrin II increased surface temperature by at least 40% and the temperature rise due to 300 mW/cm2 irradiation exceeded values for hyperthermia. Light and temperature distributions with depth were estimated by a computer model. The model demonstrated the influence of wavelength on the thermal process and proved to be a valuable tool to investigate internal temperature rise. 30536 T00401030536 ^x We investigated the structural geometry of thirty-eight Korean femurs. The purpose of this study is to identify major geometrical differences between Korean femurs 3nd others that we believe belong to Caucasians so that we would be able to get insights into the femoral component design that fits Asians including Koreans. We utilized computerized tomography (CT) images of femurs extracted from cadavers. The CT images were transformed into bitmap data by using a film scanner, and then analyzed by using a commercially available software called Image v.1.0 and a Macintosh IIci computer.The resulting data were compared with already published data. The major results show that the geometry of the Korean femurs is significantly different from that of Caucasians: (1) the anteversion angle and the canal flare index are greater by the amount of approximately 8˚ and 0.5, respectively, (2) the shape of the isthmus cross section is more round, and (3) the distance between the teaser trochanter and the proximal border of the isthmus is shelter by about 15 mm. The results suggested that the femoral component suitable for Asians should be different from the currently-used components designed and manufactured mostly by European or American companies. 30537 T00401030537 ^x It is well known that nonlinear propagation characteristics of the wave in the tissue may give very useful information for the medical diagnoisis. In this paper, a new method to detect nonlinear propagation characteristics of the internal vibration in the tissue for the low frequency mechanical vibration by using bispectral analysis is proposed. In the method, low frequency vibration of f0( = 100Hz) is applied on the surface of the object, and the waveform of the internal vibration x (t) is measured from Doppler frequency modulation of silmultaneously transmitted probing ultrasonic waves. Then, the bispectra of the signal x (t) at the frequencies (f0, f0) and (f0, 2f0) are calculated to estimate the nonlinear propagation characteristics as their magnitude ratio, w here since bispectrum is free from the gaussian additive noise we can get the value with high S/N. Basic experimental system is constructed by using 3.0 MHz probing ultrasonic waves and the several experiments are carried out for some phantoms. Results show the superiority of the proposed method to the conventional method using power spectrum and also its usefulness for the tissue characterization. 30541 T00401030541 ^x This paper describes the implementation of a computerized radial pulse diagnosis by aids of a clinical expert. On this base, we composed of the radial pulse diagnosis system in korean traditional medicine. The system composed of a radial pulse wave detection system and a radial pulse diagnosis system. With a detection system, we detected Inyoung and Cheongu radial pulse wave and processed it. Then, we have got the characteristic parameters of radial pulse wave and also quantified that according to the method of Inyoung-Cheongu Comparison Radial Pulse Diagnosis. We defined the jugement standard of radial pulse diagnosis system and then we confirmed the possibility for realization of automatic radial pulse diagnosis in korean traditional medicine. 30545 T00401030545 ^x Microspheres are expected to be applied to biomedical areas such as solid-phase immunoassays, drug delivery systems, immunomagnetic cell separation. To synthesize microspheres for biomedical application, "two stage shot growth method" was developed. The uniformity ratio of synthesized microspheres was always smaller than 1.05. And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6~13 times higher than that of the microspheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions. The maximum adsorbed amount was obtained in the neighborhood of pH 4.5. Isoelectric point of bovine albumin is pH 5.0, so experimental result shows that it shifted to acid area. The adsorption isotherm was obtained, the plateau region was always reached at 2.Og/L (bulk concentration of bovine albumin).The effect of the kind and the amount of surface functional group was also examined. 30575 T00401030575 ^x A medical image workstation was developed using multimedia technique. The system based on PC-486DX was designed to acquire medical images produced by medical imaging instruments and related audio information, that is, doctors' reporting results. Input information was processed and analyzed, then the results were presented in the form of graph and animation. All the informations of the system were hierarchically related with the image as the apex. Processing and analysis algorithms were implemented so that the diagnostic accuracy could be improved. The diagnosed information can be transferred for patient diagnosis through LAN(local area network). 30592 T00401030592 ^x In the conventional infrared imaging system, complex infrared lens systems are usually used for directing collimated narrow infrared beams into the high speed 2-dimensional optic scanner. In this paper, a simple reflective infrared optic system with a 2-dimensional optic scanner is proposed for the realization of medical infrared thermography system. It has been experimentally proven that the intfrared thermography system composed of the proposed optic system has the temperature resolution of 0.1˚c under the spatial resolution of lmrad, the image matrix size of 256 X 240, and tile imaging time of 4 seconds. 30593 T00401030593 ^x In this paper, MIIS (Medical Image Information System) has been designed and implemented using INGRES RDBMS, which is based on a client/server architecture. The implemented system allows users to register and retrieve patient information, medical images and diagnostic reports. It also provides the function to display these information on workstation windows simultaneously by using the designed menu-driven graphic user interface. The medical image compression/decompression techniques are implemented and integrated into the medical image database system for the efficient data storage and the fast access through the network. 30594 T00401030594 ^x In this paper, computerized BEAM was implemented for the space domain analysis of EEG. Trans-formation from temporal summation to two-dimensional mappings is formed by 4 nearest point inter-polaton method. Methods of representation of BEAM are two. One is dot density method which classify brain electrical potential 9 levels by dot density of gray levels and the other is colour method which classify brain electrical 12 levels by red-green colours. In this BEAM, instantaneous change and average energy distribution over any arbitrary time interval of brain electrical activity could be observed and analyzed easily. In the frequency domain, the distribution of energy spectrum of a special band can easily be distinguished normality and abnormality. 30608 T00401030608 ^x Laboratory information system (LIS) is a key tool to manage laboratory data in clinical pathology. Our department has developed an information system for routine hematology using down-sized computer system. We have used an IBM 486 compatible PC with 16MB main memory, 210 MB hard disk drive, 9 RS-232C port and 24 pin dot printer. The operating system and database management system were SCO UNIX and SCO foxbase, respectively. For program development, we used Xbase language provided by SCO foxbase. The C language was used for interface purpose. To make the system use friendly, pull-down menu was used. The system connected to our hospital information system via application program interface (API), so the information related to patient and request details is automatically transmitted to our computer. Our system interfaced with fwd complete blood count analyzers(Sysmex NE-8000 and Coulter STKS) for unidirectional data tansmission from analyzer to computer. The authors suggests that this system based on down-sized computer could provide a progressive approach to total LIS based on local area network, and the implemented system could serve as a model for other hospital's LIS for routine hematology. 30609 T00401030609 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. To use as the structural matrix of the composite, collagen was purified from human umbilical cord. The obtained collagen was treated by pepsin to remove telopeptides, and finally, the immune-free atelocollagen was produced: The cross linked atelocollagen was highly resistant to the collagenase induced collagenolysis. The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength. 30618 T00401030618 ^x This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively. 30619 T00401030619 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased. 30620 T00401030620 ^x We have developed a monoleaflet polymer valve as an inexpensive and viable alternative, especially for short-term use in the ventricular assist device or total artificial heart. The frame and leaflet of the polymer valve were made from polyurethane, To evaluate the hemodynamic performance of the polymer valve a comparative study of flow dynamics past a polymer valve and a St. Jude Medical prosthetic valve under physiological pulsatile flow conditions in vitro was made. Comparisons between the valves were made on the transvalvular pressure drop, regurgitation volume and maximum valve opening area. The polymer valve showed smaller regurgitation volume and transvalvular pressure drop compared to the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. The results showed that the functional characteristics of the polymer valve compared favorably with those of the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. 30621 T00401030621 ^x Explosive evaporative removal process of biological tissue by absorption of a CW laser has been simulated by using gelatin and a multimode Nd:YAG laser. Because the point of maximun temperature of laser-irradiated gelatin exists below the surface due to surface cooling, evaporation at the boiling temperature is made explosively from below the surface. The important parameters of this process are the conduction loss to laser power absorption (defined as the conduction-to-laser power parameter, Nk), the convection heat transfer at the surface to conduction loss (defined as Bi), dimensionless extinction coefficient (defined as Br.), and dimensionless irradiation time (defined as Fo). Dependence of Fo on Nk and Bi has been observed by experiment, and the results have been compared with the numerical results obtained by solving a 2-dimensional conduction equation. Fo and explosion depth (from the surface to the point of maximun temperature) are increased when Nk and Bi are increased.To find out the minimum laser power for explosive evaporative removal process, steady state analysis has been also made. The limit of Nk to induce evaporative removal, which is proportional to the inverse of the laser power, has been obtained. 30622 T00401030622 ^x N1 and N2 gross neural action potentials were measured from the round window of the guinea pig cochlea at the onset of the acoustic stimuli. N1-N2 audiograms were made by means of regulating stimulant intensities in order to produce constant N1-N2 potentials as criteria for different input tone pip frequencies. The lowest threshold was measured with an input tone pip I5 dB SPL in intensity and 12 KHz in frequency when the animal was in normal physiological condition. The procedure of experimental measurements is explained in detail. This experimental approach is very useful for the investigation of the Cochlear function. Both noN1inear and active functions of the Cochlea can be monitored by N1-N2 audiograms. 30623 T00401030623 ^x In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), we use boundary current and voltage measurements toprovide the information about the cross-sectional distribution of electrical impedance or resistivity. One of the major problems in EIT has been the inaccessibility of internal voltage or current data in finding the internal impedance values. We propose a new image reconstruction method using internal current density data measured by NMR. We obtained a two-dimensional current density distribution within a phantom by processing the real and imaginary MR images from a 4.77 NMR machine. We implemented a resistivity mage reconstruction algorithm using the finite element method and sensitivity matrix. We presented computer simulation results of the mage reconstruction algorithm and furture direction of the research. 30624 T00401030624 ^x A new method of digital image analysis technique for discrimination of cancer cell was presented in this paper. The object image was the Thyroid eland cells image that was diagnosed as normal and abnormal (two types of abnormal: follicular neoplastic cell, and papillary neoplastic cell), respectively. By using the proposed region segmentation algorithm, the cells were segmented into nucleus. The 16 feature parameters were used to calculate the features of each nucleus. A9 a consequence of using dominant feature parameters method proposed in this paper, discrimination rate of 91.11% was obtained for Thyroid Gland cells. 30625 T00401030625 ^x An electrical stimulator was designed to induce locomotion for paraplegic patients caused by central nervous system injury. Optimal stimulus parameters, which can minimize muscle fatigue and can achieve effective muscle contraction were determined in slow and fast muscles in Sprague-Dawley rats. Stimulus patterns of our stimulator were designed to simulate electromyographic activity monitored during locomotion of normal subjects. Muscle types of the lower extremity were classified according to their mechanical property of contraction, which are slow muscle (msoleus m.) and fast muscle (medial gastrocneminus m., rectus femoris m., vastus lateralis m.). Optimal parameters of electrical stimulation for slow muscles were 20 Hz, 0.2 ms square pulse. For fast muscle, 40 Hz, 0.3 ms square pulse was optimal to produce repeated contraction. Higher stimulus intensity was required when synergistic muscles were stimulated simultaneously than when they were stimulated individually. Electrical stimulation for each muscle was designed to generate bipedal locomotion, so that individual muscles alternate contraction and relaxation to simulate stance and swing phases. Portable electrical stimulator with 16 channels built in microprocessor was constructed and applied to paraplegic patients due to lumbar cord injury. The electrical stimulator restored partially gait function in paraplegic patients. 30626 T00401030626 ^x Two-Dimensional modelling of the Cochlear biomechanics is presented in this paper. The Laplace partial differential equation which represents the fluid mechanics of the Cochlea has been transformed into two-dimensional electrical transmission line. The procedure of this transformation is explained in detail. The comparison between one and two dimensional models is also presented. This electrical modelling of the basilar membrane (BM) is clearly useful for the next approach to the further. Development of active elements which are essential in the producing of the sharp tuning of the BM. This paper shows that two-dimension model is qualitatively better than one-dimensional model both in amplitude and phase responses of the BM displacement. The present model is only for frequency response. However because the model is electrical, the two-dimensional transmission line model can be extended to time response without any difficult. 30627 T00401030627 ^x A method has been proposed for the fully automatic detection of left ventricular endocardial boundary in 2D short axis echocardiogram using geometric model. The procedure has the following three distinct stages. First, the initial center is estimated by the initial center estimation algorithm which is applied to decimated image. Second, the center estimation algorithm is applied to original image and then best-fit elliptic model estimation is processed. Third, best-fit boundary is detected by the cost function which is based on the best-fit elliptic model. The proposed method shows effective result without manual intervention by a human operator. 30628 T00401030628 ^x The intelligent trajectory control method that controls moving direction and average velocity for a prosthetic arm is proposed by pattern recognition and force estimations using EMG signals. Also, we propose the real time trajectory planning method which generates continuous accelleration paths using 3 stage linear filters to minimize the impact to human body induced by arm motions and to reduce the muscle fatigue. We use combination of MLP and fuzzy filter for pattern recognition to estimate the direction of a muscle and Hogan's method for the force estimation. EMG signals are acquired by using a amputation simulator and 2 dimensional joystick motion. The simulation results of proposed prosthetic arm control system using the EMf signals show that the arm is effectively followed the desired trajectory depended on estimated force and direction of muscle movements. 30638 T00401030638 ^x A new neural network architecture for the recognition of patterns from images is proposed, which is partially based on the results of physiological studies. The proposed network is composed of multi-layers and the nerve cells in each layer are connected by spatial filters which approximate receptive fields in optic nerve fields. In the proposed method, patterns recognition for complicated images is carried out using global features as well as local features such as lines and end-points. A new generating method of matched filers representing global features is proposed in this network. 30659 T00401030659 ^x An implementation scheme of the magnetic nerve stimulator using a switching mode power supply is proposed. By using a switching mode power supply rather than a conventional linear power supply for charging high voltage capacitors, the weight and size of the magnetic nerve stimulator can be considerably reduced. Maximum output voltage of the developed magnetic nerve stimulator using the switching mode power supply is 3, 000 volts and switching time is about 100 msec. Experimental results or human nerve stimulations using the developed stimulator are presented. 30768 T00401030768 ^x In this paper, we describe the design methodology and specifications of the developed module-based bedside monitors for patient monitoring.

  • The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow conditions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experimental measurements were in good agreement with numerical results except in flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE: graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compliance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70${\pm}$1.32mmHg/min)compared to CF dialyzers(4.32${\pm}$0.55mmHg/min)(p<0.05). However, there was no observable difference in the UFR between the two dialyzers. Neither APD nor UFR showed any significant increase with an increasing number of reuses for up to more than 20reuses. A substantial number of failures observed in APD(larger than 20mmHe/min)on the reused dialyzers(2 out of 40 CP and S out 26 C-DAK) were attributed to the Possible damage on the fibers. The CF 15-11 HFDs which failed APD test did not show changes in the UFR compared to normal dialyzers indicating that APD is a more sensitive test than UFR test to evaluate the integrity of the fibers. 30527 T00401030527 ^x For quantitative measurement of reflected light from a clinical diagnostic strip, a prototype old reflectance photometer was designed. The strip loader and cassette were made to obtain more accurate reflectance parameters. The strip was illuminated at 45˚c through optical fiber and the intensity of reflected light was determined at rectanguLat angle using a photodiode. The kubelka-munk coefficient and reflection optical density were determined ar four different wavelengths(500,550,570 and 610nm) for blood glucose strip. For higher concentration than 300mg/41 about glucose, a saturation state of abforbance was observed at 500,550 and 570nm. The correlation between glucose concentration and parameters was the best at 610nm. 30535 T00401030535 ^x Radiation-induced fibrosarcoma tumors were grown on the flanks of C3H mice. The mice were divided into two groups. One group was injected with Photofrin II, intravenously (2.5mg/kg body weight). The other group received no Photofrin II. Mice from both groups were irradialed for approximately 15 minutes at 100,300, or 500 mW/cm2 with the argon (488nm/514.5 nm), dye(628nm) and gold vapor (pulsed 628 nm) laser light. A photosensitizer behaved as an added absorber. Under our experimental conditions, the presence of Photolfrin II increased surface temperature by at least 40% and the temperature rise due to 300 mW/cm2 irradiation exceeded values for hyperthermia. Light and temperature distributions with depth were estimated by a computer model. The model demonstrated the influence of wavelength on the thermal process and proved to be a valuable tool to investigate internal temperature rise. 30536 T00401030536 ^x We investigated the structural geometry of thirty-eight Korean femurs. The purpose of this study is to identify major geometrical differences between Korean femurs 3nd others that we believe belong to Caucasians so that we would be able to get insights into the femoral component design that fits Asians including Koreans. We utilized computerized tomography (CT) images of femurs extracted from cadavers. The CT images were transformed into bitmap data by using a film scanner, and then analyzed by using a commercially available software called Image v.1.0 and a Macintosh IIci computer.The resulting data were compared with already published data. The major results show that the geometry of the Korean femurs is significantly different from that of Caucasians: (1) the anteversion angle and the canal flare index are greater by the amount of approximately 8˚ and 0.5, respectively, (2) the shape of the isthmus cross section is more round, and (3) the distance between the teaser trochanter and the proximal border of the isthmus is shelter by about 15 mm. The results suggested that the femoral component suitable for Asians should be different from the currently-used components designed and manufactured mostly by European or American companies. 30537 T00401030537 ^x It is well known that nonlinear propagation characteristics of the wave in the tissue may give very useful information for the medical diagnoisis. In this paper, a new method to detect nonlinear propagation characteristics of the internal vibration in the tissue for the low frequency mechanical vibration by using bispectral analysis is proposed. In the method, low frequency vibration of f0( = 100Hz) is applied on the surface of the object, and the waveform of the internal vibration x (t) is measured from Doppler frequency modulation of silmultaneously transmitted probing ultrasonic waves. Then, the bispectra of the signal x (t) at the frequencies (f0, f0) and (f0, 2f0) are calculated to estimate the nonlinear propagation characteristics as their magnitude ratio, w here since bispectrum is free from the gaussian additive noise we can get the value with high S/N. Basic experimental system is constructed by using 3.0 MHz probing ultrasonic waves and the several experiments are carried out for some phantoms. Results show the superiority of the proposed method to the conventional method using power spectrum and also its usefulness for the tissue characterization. 30541 T00401030541 ^x This paper describes the implementation of a computerized radial pulse diagnosis by aids of a clinical expert. On this base, we composed of the radial pulse diagnosis system in korean traditional medicine. The system composed of a radial pulse wave detection system and a radial pulse diagnosis system. With a detection system, we detected Inyoung and Cheongu radial pulse wave and processed it. Then, we have got the characteristic parameters of radial pulse wave and also quantified that according to the method of Inyoung-Cheongu Comparison Radial Pulse Diagnosis. We defined the jugement standard of radial pulse diagnosis system and then we confirmed the possibility for realization of automatic radial pulse diagnosis in korean traditional medicine. 30545 T00401030545 ^x Microspheres are expected to be applied to biomedical areas such as solid-phase immunoassays, drug delivery systems, immunomagnetic cell separation. To synthesize microspheres for biomedical application, "two stage shot growth method" was developed. The uniformity ratio of synthesized microspheres was always smaller than 1.05. And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6~13 times higher than that of the microspheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions. The maximum adsorbed amount was obtained in the neighborhood of pH 4.5. Isoelectric point of bovine albumin is pH 5.0, so experimental result shows that it shifted to acid area. The adsorption isotherm was obtained, the plateau region was always reached at 2.Og/L (bulk concentration of bovine albumin).The effect of the kind and the amount of surface functional group was also examined. 30575 T00401030575 ^x A medical image workstation was developed using multimedia technique. The system based on PC-486DX was designed to acquire medical images produced by medical imaging instruments and related audio information, that is, doctors' reporting results. Input information was processed and analyzed, then the results were presented in the form of graph and animation. All the informations of the system were hierarchically related with the image as the apex. Processing and analysis algorithms were implemented so that the diagnostic accuracy could be improved. The diagnosed information can be transferred for patient diagnosis through LAN(local area network). 30592 T00401030592 ^x In the conventional infrared imaging system, complex infrared lens systems are usually used for directing collimated narrow infrared beams into the high speed 2-dimensional optic scanner. In this paper, a simple reflective infrared optic system with a 2-dimensional optic scanner is proposed for the realization of medical infrared thermography system. It has been experimentally proven that the intfrared thermography system composed of the proposed optic system has the temperature resolution of 0.1˚c under the spatial resolution of lmrad, the image matrix size of 256 X 240, and tile imaging time of 4 seconds. 30593 T00401030593 ^x In this paper, MIIS (Medical Image Information System) has been designed and implemented using INGRES RDBMS, which is based on a client/server architecture. The implemented system allows users to register and retrieve patient information, medical images and diagnostic reports. It also provides the function to display these information on workstation windows simultaneously by using the designed menu-driven graphic user interface. The medical image compression/decompression techniques are implemented and integrated into the medical image database system for the efficient data storage and the fast access through the network. 30594 T00401030594 ^x In this paper, computerized BEAM was implemented for the space domain analysis of EEG. Trans-formation from temporal summation to two-dimensional mappings is formed by 4 nearest point inter-polaton method. Methods of representation of BEAM are two. One is dot density method which classify brain electrical potential 9 levels by dot density of gray levels and the other is colour method which classify brain electrical 12 levels by red-green colours. In this BEAM, instantaneous change and average energy distribution over any arbitrary time interval of brain electrical activity could be observed and analyzed easily. In the frequency domain, the distribution of energy spectrum of a special band can easily be distinguished normality and abnormality. 30608 T00401030608 ^x Laboratory information system (LIS) is a key tool to manage laboratory data in clinical pathology. Our department has developed an information system for routine hematology using down-sized computer system. We have used an IBM 486 compatible PC with 16MB main memory, 210 MB hard disk drive, 9 RS-232C port and 24 pin dot printer. The operating system and database management system were SCO UNIX and SCO foxbase, respectively. For program development, we used Xbase language provided by SCO foxbase. The C language was used for interface purpose. To make the system use friendly, pull-down menu was used. The system connected to our hospital information system via application program interface (API), so the information related to patient and request details is automatically transmitted to our computer. Our system interfaced with fwd complete blood count analyzers(Sysmex NE-8000 and Coulter STKS) for unidirectional data tansmission from analyzer to computer. The authors suggests that this system based on down-sized computer could provide a progressive approach to total LIS based on local area network, and the implemented system could serve as a model for other hospital's LIS for routine hematology. 30609 T00401030609 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. To use as the structural matrix of the composite, collagen was purified from human umbilical cord. The obtained collagen was treated by pepsin to remove telopeptides, and finally, the immune-free atelocollagen was produced: The cross linked atelocollagen was highly resistant to the collagenase induced collagenolysis. The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength. 30618 T00401030618 ^x This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively. 30619 T00401030619 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased. 30620 T00401030620 ^x We have developed a monoleaflet polymer valve as an inexpensive and viable alternative, especially for short-term use in the ventricular assist device or total artificial heart. The frame and leaflet of the polymer valve were made from polyurethane, To evaluate the hemodynamic performance of the polymer valve a comparative study of flow dynamics past a polymer valve and a St. Jude Medical prosthetic valve under physiological pulsatile flow conditions in vitro was made. Comparisons between the valves were made on the transvalvular pressure drop, regurgitation volume and maximum valve opening area. The polymer valve showed smaller regurgitation volume and transvalvular pressure drop compared to the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. The results showed that the functional characteristics of the polymer valve compared favorably with those of the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. 30621 T00401030621 ^x Explosive evaporative removal process of biological tissue by absorption of a CW laser has been simulated by using gelatin and a multimode Nd:YAG laser. Because the point of maximun temperature of laser-irradiated gelatin exists below the surface due to surface cooling, evaporation at the boiling temperature is made explosively from below the surface. The important parameters of this process are the conduction loss to laser power absorption (defined as the conduction-to-laser power parameter, Nk), the convection heat transfer at the surface to conduction loss (defined as Bi), dimensionless extinction coefficient (defined as Br.), and dimensionless irradiation time (defined as Fo). Dependence of Fo on Nk and Bi has been observed by experiment, and the results have been compared with the numerical results obtained by solving a 2-dimensional conduction equation. Fo and explosion depth (from the surface to the point of maximun temperature) are increased when Nk and Bi are increased.To find out the minimum laser power for explosive evaporative removal process, steady state analysis has been also made. The limit of Nk to induce evaporative removal, which is proportional to the inverse of the laser power, has been obtained. 30622 T00401030622 ^x N1 and N2 gross neural action potentials were measured from the round window of the guinea pig cochlea at the onset of the acoustic stimuli. N1-N2 audiograms were made by means of regulating stimulant intensities in order to produce constant N1-N2 potentials as criteria for different input tone pip frequencies. The lowest threshold was measured with an input tone pip I5 dB SPL in intensity and 12 KHz in frequency when the animal was in normal physiological condition. The procedure of experimental measurements is explained in detail. This experimental approach is very useful for the investigation of the Cochlear function. Both noN1inear and active functions of the Cochlea can be monitored by N1-N2 audiograms. 30623 T00401030623 ^x In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), we use boundary current and voltage measurements toprovide the information about the cross-sectional distribution of electrical impedance or resistivity. One of the major problems in EIT has been the inaccessibility of internal voltage or current data in finding the internal impedance values. We propose a new image reconstruction method using internal current density data measured by NMR. We obtained a two-dimensional current density distribution within a phantom by processing the real and imaginary MR images from a 4.77 NMR machine. We implemented a resistivity mage reconstruction algorithm using the finite element method and sensitivity matrix. We presented computer simulation results of the mage reconstruction algorithm and furture direction of the research. 30624 T00401030624 ^x A new method of digital image analysis technique for discrimination of cancer cell was presented in this paper. The object image was the Thyroid eland cells image that was diagnosed as normal and abnormal (two types of abnormal: follicular neoplastic cell, and papillary neoplastic cell), respectively. By using the proposed region segmentation algorithm, the cells were segmented into nucleus. The 16 feature parameters were used to calculate the features of each nucleus. A9 a consequence of using dominant feature parameters method proposed in this paper, discrimination rate of 91.11% was obtained for Thyroid Gland cells. 30625 T00401030625 ^x An electrical stimulator was designed to induce locomotion for paraplegic patients caused by central nervous system injury. Optimal stimulus parameters, which can minimize muscle fatigue and can achieve effective muscle contraction were determined in slow and fast muscles in Sprague-Dawley rats. Stimulus patterns of our stimulator were designed to simulate electromyographic activity monitored during locomotion of normal subjects. Muscle types of the lower extremity were classified according to their mechanical property of contraction, which are slow muscle (msoleus m.) and fast muscle (medial gastrocneminus m., rectus femoris m., vastus lateralis m.). Optimal parameters of electrical stimulation for slow muscles were 20 Hz, 0.2 ms square pulse. For fast muscle, 40 Hz, 0.3 ms square pulse was optimal to produce repeated contraction. Higher stimulus intensity was required when synergistic muscles were stimulated simultaneously than when they were stimulated individually. Electrical stimulation for each muscle was designed to generate bipedal locomotion, so that individual muscles alternate contraction and relaxation to simulate stance and swing phases. Portable electrical stimulator with 16 channels built in microprocessor was constructed and applied to paraplegic patients due to lumbar cord injury. The electrical stimulator restored partially gait function in paraplegic patients. 30626 T00401030626 ^x Two-Dimensional modelling of the Cochlear biomechanics is presented in this paper. The Laplace partial differential equation which represents the fluid mechanics of the Cochlea has been transformed into two-dimensional electrical transmission line. The procedure of this transformation is explained in detail. The comparison between one and two dimensional models is also presented. This electrical modelling of the basilar membrane (BM) is clearly useful for the next approach to the further. Development of active elements which are essential in the producing of the sharp tuning of the BM. This paper shows that two-dimension model is qualitatively better than one-dimensional model both in amplitude and phase responses of the BM displacement. The present model is only for frequency response. However because the model is electrical, the two-dimensional transmission line model can be extended to time response without any difficult. 30627 T00401030627 ^x A method has been proposed for the fully automatic detection of left ventricular endocardial boundary in 2D short axis echocardiogram using geometric model. The procedure has the following three distinct stages. First, the initial center is estimated by the initial center estimation algorithm which is applied to decimated image. Second, the center estimation algorithm is applied to original image and then best-fit elliptic model estimation is processed. Third, best-fit boundary is detected by the cost function which is based on the best-fit elliptic model. The proposed method shows effective result without manual intervention by a human operator. 30628 T00401030628 ^x The intelligent trajectory control method that controls moving direction and average velocity for a prosthetic arm is proposed by pattern recognition and force estimations using EMG signals. Also, we propose the real time trajectory planning method which generates continuous accelleration paths using 3 stage linear filters to minimize the impact to human body induced by arm motions and to reduce the muscle fatigue. We use combination of MLP and fuzzy filter for pattern recognition to estimate the direction of a muscle and Hogan's method for the force estimation. EMG signals are acquired by using a amputation simulator and 2 dimensional joystick motion. The simulation results of proposed prosthetic arm control system using the EMf signals show that the arm is effectively followed the desired trajectory depended on estimated force and direction of muscle movements. 30638 T00401030638 ^x A new neural network architecture for the recognition of patterns from images is proposed, which is partially based on the results of physiological studies. The proposed network is composed of multi-layers and the nerve cells in each layer are connected by spatial filters which approximate receptive fields in optic nerve fields. In the proposed method, patterns recognition for complicated images is carried out using global features as well as local features such as lines and end-points. A new generating method of matched filers representing global features is proposed in this network. 30659 T00401030659 ^x An implementation scheme of the magnetic nerve stimulator using a switching mode power supply is proposed. By using a switching mode power supply rather than a conventional linear power supply for charging high voltage capacitors, the weight and size of the magnetic nerve stimulator can be considerably reduced. Maximum output voltage of the developed magnetic nerve stimulator using the switching mode power supply is 3,000 volts and switching time is about 100 msec. Experimental results or human nerve stimulations using the developed stimulator are presented. 30768 T00401030768 ^x In this paper, we describe the design methodology and specifications of the developed module-based bedside monitors for patient monitoring. The bedside monitor consists of a main unit and module cases with various parameter modules. The main unit includes a 12.1" TFT color LCD, a main CPU board, and peripherals such as a module controller, Ethernet LAN card, video card, rotate/push button controller, etc. The main unit can connect at maximum three module cases each of which can accommodate up to 7 parameter modules. They include the modules for electrocardiograph, respiration, invasive blood pressure, noninvasive blood pressure, temperature, and SpO2 with Plethysmograph.
