Epidural block is used extensively in each of the fields of surgical anesthesia, obstetric anesthesia, and diagnosis and management of acute and chronic pain. New developments in the understanding of pain conduction have extended the use of continuous epidural blockade to the administration of drugs that selectively block pain conduction while leaving sensation and motor power essentially unchanged. The safety and the reliability of spinal epidural catheter techniques have permitted relief of acute and chronic pain. However, one of the important aspects of the management of the epidural catheter is the possibility of epidural infection. We have experienced a case of epidural infection during control of post-herpetic neuralgia and discuss management of the epidural catheter in this article.

An analysis is made of the fully developed laminar flow and heat transfer in a parallel flat plate with heated rectangular block arrays to investigated the influence of bouyancy force. The shrouds is considered as adiabatic, while the heated block surface transmit a uniform rate of heat flux per unit axial length. The governing equations for velocity and temperature are solved by SIMPLE(Semi-Implicit Method Pressure Linked Equation) algorithm. Detailed velocity and temperature fields and overall heat transfer on wide range of Rayleigh number and various aspect ratios of heated rectangular blocks are computed. The result show that bouyancy leads to a significient enhancement in heat transfer along with a smaller increase in pressure drop, with the great enhancement found when the aspect ratio is 3.0.

The digital logic systems(DLS) is classified into digital combinational logic systems(CDLS) and digital sequential logic systems(SDLS). This paper presents a method of constructing the digital sequential logic systems without feedback. Firstly we assign all elements in Finite Fields to P-valued digit codes using mathematical properties of Finine Fields. Also, we discuss the operarional properties of the building block T-gate that is used to realizing digital sequential logic systems over Finite Fields. Then we realize the digital sequential logic systems without feedback. This digital sequential logic systems without feedback is constructed ny following steps. Firstly, we assign the states in the state-transition diagram to state P-valued digit dodo, then we obtain the state function and predecessor table that is explaining the relationship between present state and previous states. Next, we obtained the next-state function and predecessor table. Finally, we realize the circuit using T-gate and decoder.

A numerical analysis was made to investigate the intensity diminution of a simple silencer for high pressure blast flow fields. Reynolds-Averaged Wavier-Stokes equations were solved for an axisymmetric computational domain constructed by multi block Chimera grids. A blast flow field without the silencer was also calculated to validate the present numerical method. The evolution of high pressure blast flow fields was observed by depicting calculated contours of pressure and Mach number. It was found that the tested silencer could achieve 76 percent intensity diminution.

The main cause factor for effective the output, especially in small & irregular shaped field of electron beam therapy, are collimation system, insert block diameter and energy. In the absorption deose of treatment fields, we should consider the lateral build-up ratio (LBR), which the ratio of dose at a point at depth for a given circular field to the dose at the same point for a 'broad-field', for the same incident fluence and profile. The LBR data for a small circular field are used to extract radial spread of the pencil beam, ${\sigma}$, as a function of depth and energy. It's based on elementary pencil beam. We consider availability of the factor, ${\sigma}$, in the small & irregular fields electron beam treatment.

Singular value decomposition (SVD) has been widely used to identify unique features from a data set in various fields. However, a complex matrix calculation of SVD requires tremendous computation time. This paper improves the performance of a representative one-sided block Jacoby algorithm using a two-dimensional (2D) multi-core system. In addition, this paper explores an optimal multi-core system by varying the number of processing elements in the 2D multi-core system with the same 400MHz clock frequency and TSMC 28nm technology for each matrix-based one-sided block Jacoby algorithm ($128{\times}128$, $64{\times}64$, $32{\times}32$, $16{\times}16$). Moreover, this paper demonstrates the potential of the 2D multi-core system for the one-sided block Jacoby algorithm by comparing the performance of the multi-core system with a commercial high-performance graphics processing unit (GPU).

To manage national territory and cadastral data efficiently, accuracy and cost-efficiency in cadastral boundary surveying is inevitable. The efficient management of cadastral data is a very important element in national land management. Survey techniques are being introduced. Recently, improvements in survey techniques have been made with the development of satellite surveying, Allowing accurate and fast surveys. If we can calculate the output accurately in real-time in survey fields, it will open a new method in cadastral detail surveying. According to the classification on Law of cadastral surveying, Cadastral surveying can be divided into cadastral control point surveying and cadastral detail surveying. The control point survey can be divided into cadastral triangulation surveying and cadastral traverse surveying. The detailed survey is usually perform by plane surveying. Among these, cadastral detail surveying will be reviewed in this study. In this study, the combination of the satellites, such as US managed GPS and Russian managed GLONASS was used. In the satellite survey in downtown, data interruption symptoms arose(according to the mask angle of the satellite). Therefore; we combined the satellites to get date more accurately. A block of Haewoondae New City in Busan, Korea, which has Numerical Cadastral Law was selected as the sample area for this study. Block II and III are surrounded by high rise apartments. One side of Block I and IV is level ground and the other side is full of high rise apartments. Especially, Block II is surrounded by high rise apartment houses with 20 meters width. In the results of the study Block II did not satisfy the allowable precision, while Block I, II and IV satisfied the allowable precision of the enforcement regulations of Cadastral Law. Therefore, it is judged that the traditionally used Total Station method should be used for supplementary survey on Block II, in stead.

Scatter-air ratios are used for the purpose of calculating scattered dose in the medium. The computation of the primary and the scattered dose separately is particularly useful in the dosimetry of irregular fields with shielding block in radiation field, dose distribution of scattered radiation using 18MeV Linear accelerator and Co-50 teletherapy measured. The effect of scattered radiation dose by protecting block was been ignored in radiation therapy, 2-3% of scattered radiation may be 90-200 cGy which could be influence vitial complications such as cataract, oligospermia or sterility. So that exect calculation of such scattered radiation especially for large field $\bar{c}$ small protection of vitial organ is very important. The purpose of this article is to calculate scattered radiation by protecting block exactly for irregular field $\bar{c}$ Linac or Co-60 irradiation and to applicate these data in clinical radiation field. Authors could obtain following results. 1. The lesser angle between shielding block showed more scattered radiation. 2. With decreasing distance between shielding blocks, the dependent of scattered radiation were increased. 3. Output of 18MeV Linear accelerator and Co-60 was related linear proportion on field size, but independent according to the size of shielding block in 18MeV Linear accelerator.

Detection of faces on still color images with arbitrary backgrounds is attempted in this paper. The newly proposed method is invariant to arbitrary background, number of faces, scale, orientation, skin color, and illumination through the steps of color clustering, cluster scanning, sub-block processing, face area detection, and face verification. The sub-block method makes the proposed method invariant to the size and the number of faces in the image. The proposed method does not need any pre-training steps or a preliminary face database. The proposed method may be applied to areas such as security control, video and photo indexing, and other automatic computer vision-related fields.
