Purpose: This study aimed to compare the effects of rescue ventilation maneuvers on the quality of two-rescuer cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Methods: We implemented mouth to mouth (MMV), mouth to pocket mask (MPV) and bag-valve mask ventilation (BMV) maneuvers. Each team of two-nurses was randomized to perform three consecutive sessions of two-rescuer CPR by using three artificial ventilation maneuvers. Results: The subjects were 26 teams of nurses (female: 96.2%, male: 3.8%, age: 26.6 years). Failed ventilation was more frequent in BMV ($2.23{\pm}2.21$, p <.001) than MMV ($0.31{\pm}0.74$) and MPV ($0.38{\pm}0.64$). BMV had more compressions per minute ($93.7{\pm}5.7$) than MMV ($87.0{\pm}7.2$, p = .001) and shorter total compression pause time ($46.1{\pm}5.8sec$) and compression pause fraction ($23.3{\pm}2.2%$) than MMV ($54.8{\pm}10.3sec$, p = .001, $25.5{\pm}3.5%$, p = .001, respectively) and MPV ($53.1{\pm}7.1sec$, p =. 006 and $25.8{\pm}2.6%$, p = .006, respectively). Conclusion: In our simulation study, BMV reduced the compression pause time and increased the number of compressions per minute, thus indicating CPR provided to patients was effective. However, considering the high rate of ventilation failure, we recommend periodic training.

In this paper, We purpose the basic data for the success of effective CPR using mirror in order to increase the quality of chest compression during CPR. The subject of this study was an experimental study based on a randomized crossover design of 28 people who completed the BLS Health Care Provider, and collected data were analyzed by SPSS Ver. 23.0 for Win statistics program. As the research methods, depth, speed, compression to relaxation ratio, arm angle and easiness during the chest compression were measured. Taken together, the results of this study showed that using a mirror-based chest compression method for chest compressions in adult CPR could make chest compressions easier, in addition, the quality of breast compression was improved by improving the posture of the rescuers, such as the average depth of compression, compression to relaxation ratio, and arm angle. However, it is necessary to confirm the feasibility of clinical application through additional studies on various environmental factors and job groups for mirror-based chest compression method.

Cardiac arrest is a series of conditions that occur when the heart is stopped, regardless of the cause. Cardiac arrest due to heart disease is included in the cause of death in korea every year and is unpredictable. One of the only ways to save a patient's life when a cardiac arrest is cardiopulmonary resuscitation is to maintain circulation through this procedure. Therefore compared the quality of chest compressions with visual information using mirrors. There was a significant difference in the mean depth of chest compressions(48.93±6.76, 53.86±4.56, <0.001), and there was also a difference in compression to relaxation ratio(0.87±0.13, 0.96±0.10, <0.002). There was also a significant difference in attitude awareness(4.93±0.85, 8.14±1.38, <0.001).

Dumbbell-shaped aromatic amphiphilic molecules consisting of a dodeca-p-phenylene as a rigid segment and oligoether dendrons as a flexible chains were synthesized, characterized, and their aggregation behavior was investigated in the bulk and at the air-water interface. In contrast to the molecule 2 which shows a nematic liquid crystalline state, molecule 1 based on shorter dendritic chains was observed to self-assemble into a 3-D primitive orthorhombic supercrystal. And molecule 1 at the air-water interface was observed to reorganize from circular plates to ring structures by lateral compressions.

The compression molding of SMC (sheet molding compund) at room temperature was analyzed based on rigid-viscoplastic approach by three dimensional finite element program. The developed program was tested by solving the three dimensional compression of wedge type specimens of aluminum alloys at various processing conditions. The simulation results were compared well to the experimental results available in the literature. based on this comparison the program was proved to be valid and was further applied in solving compression molding of SMC, which is a thermosetting material reinforced with chopped fiber glass. To investigate the effects of friction conditions and mold closing speeds for compression molding of SMC charge at room temperature, compressions of the cylindrical and rectangular shaped SMC were analyzed for various friction conditions and mold closing speeds. The calculated load values were compared to the experimental results for the compression molding of cylindrical specimen.

Motion Estimation which is used to reduce the redundant data plays an important role in video compressions. However, it requires huge computational complexity of the encoder part. And therefore many fast motion estimation methods has been developed to reduce complexity. Multi-view video is obtained by using many cameras at different positions and its complexity increases in proportion to the number of cameras. In this paper, we proposed a fast motion estimation method for multi-view video. The proposed method predicts a search start point by using correlated candidate vectors of the current block. According to the motion size of the start search point, a search start pattern of the current block is decided adaptively. The proposed method proves to be about 2 ~ 5 times faster than existing methods while maintaining similar image quality and bitrates.

Numerical studies are performed to predict the stress-strain behavior of rectangular RC columns confined by multi-spiral hoops under axial and eccentric compressions. Using the commercial finite element package ABAQUS, the Drucker-Prager criterion and the yield surface are adopted for damaged plasticity concrete. The proposed finite element models are compared with the published experimental data. Parametric studies on concrete grades, confinement arrangement, diameter and spacing of hoops and eccentricity of load are followed. Numerical results have shown good agreements with experimental values, and indicated a proper constitutive law and model for concrete. Cross-sectional areas and spacing of the hoops have significant effect on the bearing capacity. It can be concluded that rectangular RC columns confined by multi-spiral hoops show better performance than the conventional ones.

Techniques measuring Maxwell displacement current (MDC) and LB films surface measuring technique have been applied to the study of monolayers of polyamic acid containing azobenzene. MDCs was generated from monolayers on the water surface by monolayer compression and expansion. It was generated when the area per molecule was about $103{\AA}^2\;and\;78{\AA}^2$ just before the initial rise of the surface pressure during the 1st and 2nd mixed monolayer compressions cycle, respectively. It was the maximum of MDCs appeared at the molecular area just before the initial rise of surface pressure in compression cycles, and we have found that the increase of aggregations causes the noticeable increase of the surface roughness.

An oil-free turbo-compressor supported by compliant foil bearings which remove oil-contamination by elimination of a conventional ball bearing and oil lubrication systems is presented. Turbo-compressor makes two individual air compressions with two impellers at a operating speed of 39,000 rpm. In this study, the rotordynamic effects caused by aerodynamic instability were investigated with variable mass flow rates. Correlations between frequencies of pressure fluctuation in two diffusers and those of excitation forces on rotor were clearly observed in an aerodynamic unsteady region. Thus, these results show that it is beneficial to design high-speed rotating turbomachinery by considering coupling effect between aerodynamic instability and rotordynamic force.
