  • In this report, we present a pediatric case of severe symptomatic hypermagnesemia resulting from the use of magnesium oxide as a laxative in a child undergoing continuous cyclic peritoneal dialysis for end-stage renal disease. The patient showed abnormal electrocardiography (ECG) findings, such as tall T waves, a widened QRS complex, and irregular conduction, which were initially misdiagnosed as hyperkalemia; later, the correct diagnosis of hypermagnesemia was obtained. Emergent hemodialysis successfully returned the serum magnesium concentration to normal without complications. When abnormal ECG changes are detected in patients with renal failure, hypermagnesemia should be considered.

  • Drilling is one of the most important operations in machining industry and usually the most efficient and economical method of cutting a hole in metal. From automobile parts to aircraft components, almost every manufactured product requires that holes are to be drilled for the purpose of assembly, creation of fluid passages, and so on. It is therefore desirable to monitor drill wear and hole quality changes during the hole drilling process. One important aspect in controlling the drilling process is drill wear status monitoring. With the monitoring, we may decide on optimal timing for tool change. The necessity of the detection of tool wear, fracture and the abnormal tool state has been emphasized in the machining process. Accordingly, this paper deals with the cutting characteristics of the hot-rolled high strength steels using common HSS drill. The performance variables include drill wear data obtained from drilling experiments conducted on the workpiece. The results are obtained from monitoring of the cutting force and Acoustic Emission (AE) signals, and from the detection of the abnormal tool state with the computer vision system.

  • The present study aims to identify the effect of sintering atmosphere [$O_2$, 75$N_2$-25 $H_2$ (mol%) and $H_2$] on microstructural evolution at the relatively low sintering temperature of 1040$^{\circ}C$. Samples sintered in $O_2$ showed a bimodal microstructure consisting of fine matrix grains and large abnormal grains. Sintering in 75 $N_2$ - 25 $H_2$ (mol %) and $H_2$ caused the extent of abnormal grain growth to increase. These changes in grain growth behaviour are explained by the effect of the change in step free energy with sintering atmosphere on the critical driving force necessary for rapid grain growth. The results show the possibility of fabricating $(K_{0.5}Na_{0.5})NbO_3$ at low temperature with various microstructures via proper control of sintering atmosphere.

  • The two major problems related to the blood flow in replaced prosthetic heart valve are thrombus formation and hemolysis. Reliability of prosthetic valve is very important because its failure means the death of patient. There are many factors affecting the valvular failures and their representatives are mechanical failure and thrombosis, so early noninvasive detection is essentially required. The purpose of this study is to detect the various thromboses formation by using acoustic signal acquisition and its spectral analysis on the frequency domain. We made the thrombosis models using Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and they are thrombosis model on the disc, around the sewing ring and fibrous tissue growth across the orifice of valve. Using microphone and amplifier, we measured the acoustic signal from the prosthetic valve, which is attached to the pulsatile mock circulation system. A/D converter sampled the acoustic signal and the spectral analysis is the main algorithm for obtaining spectrum. Then the spectrum of normal and 5 different kinds of abnormal valve were obtained. Each spectrum waveform shows a primary and secondary peak. The secondary peak changes according to the thrombus model. To quantitatively distinguish the frequency peak of the normal valve from that of the thrombosed valves, analysis using a neural network was employed. Acoustic measurement has been used as a noninvasive diagnostic tool and is thought to be a good method for detecting possible mechanical failure or thrombus.

  • The effect of MnO2 addition to 0.1mol% Sb2O3-doped BaTiO3 ceramics on microstructure and PTCR characteristics was studied. The PTCR characteristics was observed when 0.01 and 0.02 wt% MnO2 were added and sintered at 132$0^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour. The characteristics can be explained by the changes in the number and size of the abnormal grain growth due to the liquid phase during sintering. when the amount of MnO2 addition was 0.03 wt%, the sample showed NTCR characteristics with room-temperature resistivity over 109 Ωm regardless of the sintering temperature. This behavior can be described by the microstructure change due to the abnormal grain growth and charge compensation effect by MnO2 added. The room-temperature resistivity was increased as the amount of MnO2 was increased. And the specific resistivity ratio (pmax/pmin) showed maximum at 0.02wt% MnO2.

  • This study is aimed to develop a safety diagnosis system for fire pumps that detects normal and abnormal signals for the stable operation of the system. Hence, the following activities were carried out: first, a threshold value was identified for the normal operation and six abnormal operations (adherence of impeller, absence of water source, separation of pump and motor, run-stop operation, air inflow into the casing, and reverse-phase loss of the power line) reflecting changes in the current, flow and pressure of fire pumps; secondly, based on the identified signals, an algorithm capable of detecting three abnormal signals was developed and in terms of hardware, a current, pressure and flow sensor suitable for the analogue input values of NI-6009 was designed and installed. This combination of the hardware and software is applicable as a diagnosis system to ensure the stable operation of fire pumps.

  • The author analyzed the morphologic changes of bone structures from 1256 radiographs of 314 patients with temporomandi.bular joint arthrosis, which were obtained by the oblique-lateral projection and orthopantomography. The interrelations of the bone changes and clinical symptoms were examined. Also, the positional relationships of condylar head, articular fossa and articular eminence in the mouth open and closed state were observed in the patients with bone changes. The results were as follows; 1. The most frequent bone change in the TMJ arthorsis was eburnation of cortical bone (35. 64%) of total cases). Then came bone surface erosion and localized radiolucency (26.18%), marginal proliferation (9.7%) and flattening of articular surface (9.58%) in that order. 2. The most frequent site of bone change was articular eminence (41.70%). The came condylar head (21.09%) and articular fossa (20.73%) in that order. 3. In the patients with bone changes, their clinical symptoms were pain (51.55%), clicking sound during mandibular movement (37.71%) and limited mandibular movement (10.73%). In the patients complaining pain, their radiographs showed eburnation of cortical bone (30.68%), bone surface erosion and localized radiolucency (27.45%) and flattening in the (30.68%), bone surface erosion and localized radiolucency (27.45%) and flattening of articular surface (10.68%). 4. The condylar positional changes in the TMJ arthrosis patients with bone changes were as follows: in the mouth closed !tate, there were the widening of joint space in 624 cases (50.00%), the narrowing of joint space in 543 cases (43.47%) and bone on bone relatioships in 82 cases (6.57%). In the mouth open state, there were forward positioning of the condyle in 332 cases (28.55%), limitation of movenent in 332 cases (28.55%), bone on bone relation- ships in 248 cases (21.31%) and downward positioning of condyle in 217 cases (18.66%). bone on bone relationships in 243 cases (21.32%) and downward positioning of condyle in 217 cases (18.66%). 5. In the TMJ arthrosis patients with bone changes, 1249 cases of abnormal condylar position in the mouth closed state and 1163 cases of abnormal condylar position in the mouth open state could be interpreted. so, for the radiographic interpretation of TMJ arthrosis, the reading of condylar positional changes as well as that of bond changes should be performed and their interrelations should be profoundly considered.

  • 이 연구는 국내에서 운용되고 있는 지하수 장기관측망의 자동 관측자료를 이용하여, 발생빈도가 상대적으로 높은 M3.0 내외의 소규모 지진에 의한 영향과 지진 전조현상에 의한 지하수의 변화 관측 및 구분가능성을 평가하고자 수행되었다. 사용된 지하수 관측자료는 2012년 4월~6월 기간의 1시간 단위로 김천지좌, 강진성전, 공주정안 3개 관측소의 암반관측공에서 관측된 자료이다, 지하수위, 수온 및 EC 값의 시계열 자료에서 부분적으로 급격한 이상변동이 관측되었으며, 이변동은 2012년 5월 30일 경북 영덕에서 발생한 M3.1 지진의 전조와 그 영향으로 해석된다. 그럼에도 불구하고 지진의 규모 및 발생위치와 관측공까지의 거리와 지하수 변동의 크기는 선형관계를 보이지 않으며, 이는 관측공 자체의 구조적 특성과도 연관된다. 따라서 지진관측을 고유목적으로 하는 관측공의 설치, 운용이 필요하며, 이를 통한 장기적 모니터링은 지진 재난지역에서의 비상수자원 확보와 지하공간 안전성 확보의 기반정보를 제공할 수 있을 것이다.

  • The author analysed the bone changes, the positional relationships between condylar head and articular fossa, and the interrelationship between the bone changes and the abnormal position of condylar head, from 1,036 radiographs of 259 patients with temporomandibular joint arthrosis, which were obtained by the oblique-lateral transcranial projection and orthopantomograms. The results were as follows: 1. Among the radiographic bone changes of the temporomandibular joint arthrosis, deformity was 36.90%(217 case), sclerosis 34.18% (20 cases), errosive chang 25.85% (152 cases) and marginal proliferation 3.06% (18 cases) respectively. 2. In the positional changes between condylar head and articular fossa, the downward positioning of condylar head in centric occlusion was most frequent(36.90%), of which frequency was signifiantly higher than forward positioning (11.22%) and backward positioning(4.76%) in same condition. Also, radiographs showed that the enlargement of articular space showed higher frequency than its narrowing. In the opening position of mouth, the restricted movement of condylar head within articular fossa was most frequent(35.03%). The forward positioning and the downward positioning was 15.65% and 9.52% respectively. Also, radiographs revealed that the incomplete movement or no positional change of condylar head was most frequent. 3. In the interrelationship between bone changes and abnormal position of condylar head, deformity was 42.79% in the cases of downward positioning of condylar head in centric occlusion and 37.50% in those of normal positioning of condylar head in same condition. This revealed that deformity was most frequent bone change in above condylar positionings. However, erossive change was 34.62% in the cases of downward positioning of condylar head in centric occlusion and 33.33% in those of forward positioning. In opening position of condylar head, and deformity in the cases of normal positioning, forward positioning and downward positioning of condylar head was 38.38%, 36.96% and 44.64% respectively. 4. Bone changes of condylar head was 47.11%, articular eminence 41.50% and articular fossa 11.39% respectively. This revealed that the frequencies of bone changes. were higher in the projected portion of bony structures of temporomandibular joint than their depressed portions. On the otherhand, in the bone changes of condylar head, deformity was 59.57% which was the most frequent. In the bone changes of articular eminence and articular fossa, however, sclersis was 41.39% and 65.67% respectively, which was the most frequent in those portions.
