여러 학계와 산업계로부터 인체영상과 같은 정적인 볼륨 데이터뿐만 아니라, 유체 흐름과 같은 동적으로 움직이는 Time-Variant 볼륨 데이터에 대한 실시간 렌더링의 요구가 계속되고 있다. 일반적으로 Time-Variant 데이터는 그 크기가 정적 볼륨 데이터의 수배에서 수백 배에 이르러, 이를 실시간으로 가시화하는 데에 많은 어려움이 있어왔다. 한편, PC 그래픽스 하드웨어의 급격한 발전에 따라 슈퍼컴퓨터나 다수의 컴퓨터들을 이용한 병렬/분산 렌더링으로나 가능했던 Time-Variant 볼륨 데이터의 실시간 볼륨 렌더링을 한대의 일반 PC에서 수행하려는 시도가 계속되고 있다. GPU의 꼭지점 및 프래그먼트 쉐이더(vertex & fragment shader)는 수치 계산에 최적화된 벡터 연산과 사용자 프로그래밍 기능으로 빠른 볼륨 렌더링을 일반 PC에서도 가능하게 했다. 본 논문에서는 GPU를 이용해서 Time-Variant 볼륨 데이터를 빠르게 가시화하고, 이렇게 개발한 GPU 볼륨 렌더링 프로그램을 사용자가 사용하기 편리하도록 사용자 친화적인 유저 인터페이스를 설계하고 구현하였다. 특히, 시간에 따라 동적으로 변화해야 하는 전이함수를 최대한 편리하게 생성할 수 있도록 전이함수 에디터에 중점을 두었다.

On wind turbine generators, the speed and volume of the wind affect the turbine angle speed which finally determines the output level of the electric power. However it is very difficult to forecast correctly the future power output and quality based on previous fixed sampling methods. This paper proposes a variable sampling method based on Buneman frequency estimation algorithm to reflect the variations of the frequency and amplitude on wind power outputs. The proposed method is also verified through the performance test by comparing with the results from previous fixed sampling methods and the real measurement data.

The present study suggests the fundamental method for the prediction time of the fire origin by analyzing the combustion phenomenon of inflammable material in the building structure. The heat release rate (HRR) with time variant is evaluated for the interphone as a inflammable material, which is opted from the fire incidents in the stairwell. the fire dynamics simulator (FDS ver. 6.1) is applied in order to analyze the difference of the smoke inflow time to the downstair from the fire event area with various fire pattern. The results show that the maximum inflow time difference for the case of the interphone made from ABS materials is about 4.93 times with the input conditions of heat flux values and the environment in the FDS for the fixed stairwell which composed of total volume $291.3m^3$, floorage $23.3m^2$ and the height of each floor 2.5 m. This research can be practical information for the application method of simulation scheme with experimental data to the fire Identification.

Purpose : Though It has been known that the to tolerance of the liver to external beam irradiation depends on the irradiated volume and dose, few data exist which Quantify this dependence. However, recently, with the development of three dimensional (3-D) treatment planning, have the tools to Quantify the relationships between dose, volume, and normal tissue complications become available. The objective of this study is to investigate the relationships between normal tissue complication probabili쇼 (WCP) and the risk of radiation hepatitis for patients who received variant dose partial liver irradiation. Materials and Methods : From March 1992 to December 1994, 10 patients with hepatoma and 10 patients with bile duct cancer were included in this study. Eighteen patients had normal hepatic function, but 2 patients (prothrombin time 73$\%$, 68$\%$) had mild liver cirrhosis before irradiation. Radiation therapy was delivered with 10MV linear accelerator, 180$\~$200 cGy fraction per day. The total dose ranged from 3,960 cGy to 6,000 cGy (median dose 5,040 cGy). The normal tissue complication probability was calculated by using Lyman's model. Radiation hepatitis was defined as the development of anicteric elevation of alkaline phosphatase of at least two fold and non-malignant ascites in the absence of documented progressive. Results: The calculated NTCP ranged from 0.001 to 0.840 (median 0.05). Three of the 20 patients developed radiation hepatitis. The NTCP of the patients with radiation hepatitis were 0.390, 0.528, 0.844(median : 0.58$\pm$0.23), but that of the patients without radiation hepatitis ranged fro 0.001 to 0.308 (median .0.09$\pm$0.09). When the NTCP was calculated by using the volume factor of 0.32, a radiation hepatitis was observed only in patients with the NTCP value more than 0.39. By contrast, clinical results of evolving radiation hepatitis were not well correlated with NTCP value calculated when the volume factor of 0.69 was applied. On the basis of these observations, the volume factor of 0.32 was more correlated to predict a radiation hepatitis. Conclusion : The risk of radiation hepatitis was increased above the cut-off value. Therefore the NTCP seems to be used for predicting the radiation hepatitis.
