This research investigates experimentally an effect on the properties of the high flowing concrete to be poured in the under-ground slurry wall of Inchon LNG receiving terminal(#213,214-TK) according to variations of concrete materials. Variables for sensitivity test were selected items as followings. 1) Concrete temperature (3cases), 2) Unit water (5cases), 3) Fineness modulus of fine aggregate (5cases), 4) Particle size of lime stone powder (3cases), 5) Replacement ratio of blast-furnace slag (4cases) and 6) Addition ratio of high range water reducing agent (5cases). And fresh conditions of the super flowing concrete should be satisfied with required range including slump flow(65$\pm$5cm), 50cm reaching time of flow(4~10sec), V-lot flowing time(10~ 20sec), U-box height(min. 300mm) and air content(4$\pm$1%). As results for sensitivity test, considered flow-ability, self-compaction and segregation resistance of the high flowing concrete, material variations and conditions of fresh concrete should be satisfied with the range as follwings. 1) Concrete temperature are 10~2$0^{\circ}C$(below 3$0^{\circ}C$), 2) Surface moisture of fine aggregate is within $\pm$ 0.6%, 3) Fineness modulus of fine aggregate is 2.6$\pm$0.2, 4)Replacement ratio of blast-furnace slag is 45~50% and 5) Addition ratio of high range water reducing agent is within 1%. Based on the specification for quality control, we successfully finished concrete pouring on the under-ground slurry wall having 75,000㎥(#213,214-TK) and accumulated real date in site.

Background: The present study aimed to investigate the utility and importance of the various parameters of complete blood count panel for benign-malignant differentiation of adnexal masses. Materials and Methods: This retrospective study involved 316 patients with documented benign and 253 patients with malignant adnexal masses who underwent primary surgical treatment at a tertiary referral center. Prior to the study, all benign and malignant cases were compared within their own groups and then the benign and malignant cases were compared to each other. For all cases, cut-off, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) were calculated for the neutrophil lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet lymphocyte ratio (PLR), neutrophil, lymphocyte, platelet and CA-125 parameters, and the results were compared in regards to the groups. Results: NLR, PLR, neutrophil, CA-125, and platelet values were higher in the malignant compared to the benign cases (p<0.01). The lymphocyte value was lower in the malignant cases (p<0.01). No significant differences were found for basophils and eosinophils (p > 0.05). For CA-125, the sensitivity, specificity, PPV and NPV for all cases were 78%, 62%, 62% and 78%, respectively. For NLR, they were 65.6%, 72.1%, 65.3%, and 72.3%, and for PLR, 48%, 81%, 67%, and 66%. Additionally, the sensitivity and specificity were 55% and 77% for CA-125, 66% and 58% for NLR, and 61% and 58% for PLR in early malignant cases. Conclusions: NLR and PLR appear to be useful methods that can be applied together with CA-125 due to the relatively high sensitivity values for the malign-benign differentiation of ovarian masses. Although the specificity of these parameters is lower than CA-125, especially in cases with early malignant ovarian pathology, their sensitivity being higher is promising for the early diagnosis of ovarian cancer. It can be used to detect ovarian malignancies in the early stages, and it will increase the treatment options and improve survival rates.

본 자기공명영상장치(MRI: Magnetic Resonance Imaging)의 구성 요소인 RF Coil의 성능은 영상의 신호대 잡음비(Signal to Noise Ratio)를 결정하는 장치이다. RF Coil의 성능은 민감도(Sensitivity)와 라디오주파수 필드 균질성(RF Field Uniformity)으로 나타내고, RF Coil에 의해 유기되는 라디오 주파수 자기장(B1 Field)의 세기는 RF Coil의 구조 및 배열에 따라 공간적으로 달라진다. MRI 신호의 크기는 RF Coil이 만들어내는 자기장의 세기에 의해 결정되기 때문에 RF Coil에 의해 형성되는 공간상의 B1 Field의 분포를 확인할 수 있어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 다채널 RF Coil 설계에 있어서 가장 기본이 되는 형태의 RF Coil 구조와 이의 B1 Field 분포를 Matlab을 이용하여 모의실험을 통해 확인 하였다. Matlab을 이용하여 계산된 기본 구조의 RF 코일이 형성하는 B1 Field 분포는 다채널 RF 코일 설계시 매우 유용하게 사용될 수 있을 것이다.

This paper studied the sensitivity characteries of the electronic ballast for the discharge lamps, which implies variation ratio of the output power by the passive element variation. We have derived the equation to represent the lamp power, and obtained the sensitivity characteristic equations. The simulation result shows that the proposed equations are correct and very useful to design the electronic ballast with the LCpCs-type resonant tank.

This paper presents a mew design of an inductive position sensing system with high sensitivity. The designed system consists of the driving coils, position-detecting coils, and closed loop formed magnetic blocks. To obtain high sensitivity we design a symmetric and closed loop type measuring system with small air-gaps. The elements that affect the system characteristics are turn ratio, excitation frequency, air-gap size, capacitance effect, and load resistance. By experimental investigation, the influences of these elements are examined and the system parameters are selected. The sensitivity of the newly designed system is greater than 2800mV/(V mm) and the linearity error is below${\pm}0.01%; in; the; range; of; {\pm}200{\mu}m$.

In this paper, the influence of frictional conditions on the backward impact extrusion of aluminum battery casing with large aspect ratio has been investigated. In the simulation, MSC.Superforge, a package based on the finite volume method, is used for the extrusion analysis. The formability and earing problem during the production have been evaluated by studying the sensitivity to frictional effects. During the sensitivity analysis, the friction factor was varied from 0.02 to 0.24. As the friction factor is increased, the forming height of the narrow edge is decreased, and the forming height of the wide edge is increased. When the friction factor becomes 0.2, the earing problem does not occur The experimental results show a good agreement with analytical results.

본 연구에서는 실제의 하중에서 관찰되는 경우가 많고, 또한, 이론적 취급이 용이한 협대역(narrow band)파형을 대상으로 했으니, 다른 파형의 경우도 대략적인 경 향은 파악할 수 있으리라 생가되며 극치의 확률분포만 주어지면 본 수법과 마찬가지로 동일하게 적용할 수 있다.

Ta/NiFe/Cu/Co 구조의 Pseudo 스핀밸브 박막을 제작하여 NiFe, Cu, Co 각 층들의 두께변화에 따른 자기저항비(MR-ratio), 보자력, 자기 민감도(sensitivity), 반전자장(Switching Field)의 크기 등의 자기적 특성을 연구하였다. 각 층들의 두께를 변화시키면서 측정한 결과 Ta(4 nm)/NiFe(7.5 nm)/Cu(3 nm)/Co(5 nm)에서 최대 자기저항비 7.26 %를 얻을 수 있었다. 또한 각 층들의 독립적인 자화 과정을 통해 자기저항 특성을 조절할 수 있었다. 특히 Co의 두께를 변화시켜 자기저항비를 비교적 일정하게 유지하면서 보자력의 크기를 조절할 수 있음을 알게 되었다.

When the ${\gamma}-ray$ of average energy 375KeV emitted by Ir-192 is exposed to each film through lead foil with various thickness, the film sensitivity will be different according to the thickness of lead foil and film type. The results on the study, different density and sensitive ratio appeared depending on exposed time and film type, but was made on the following common points. 1. The effect of film sensitivity by the front lead foil showed rapid increase up to the thickness of more or less 0.03mm, and the thicker lead foil was decreased more in the thickness of about $0.05{\sim}0.09mm$. 2. The effect of film sensitivity by the back lead foil was increased up to around of $0.03{\sim}0.08mm$ thickness, the maximum sensitivity was obtained in the thickness of more than $0.03{\sim}0.08mm$ without any change in the above effect. 3. The sensitivity of front lead foil was higher than that of back lead foil in thin lead foil with about 0.127mm thickness, but the sensitivity of back lead foil was higher than that of front lead foil when thickness became thicker.

High-sensitivity signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) microphones are essentially required for a broad range of automatic speech recognition applications. Piezoelectric microphones have several advantages compared to conventional capacitor microphones including high stiffness and high SNR. In this study, we designed a new piezoelectric membrane structure by using the finite elements method (FEM) and an optimization technique to improve the sensitivity of the transducer, which has a high-quality AlN piezoelectric thin film. The simulation demonstrated that the sensitivity critically depends on the inner radius of the top electrode, the outer radius of the membrane, and the thickness of the piezoelectric film in the microphone. The optimized piezoelectric transducer structure showed a much higher sensitivity than that of the conventional piezoelectric transducer structure. This study provides a visible path to realize micro-scale high-sensitivity piezoelectric microphones that have a simple manufacturing process, wide range of frequency and low DC bias voltage.
