Hypoplastic left heart syndrome is currently the most lethal cardiac malformation of the newborn infant. Survival following a Norwood operation depends on the balance between systemic and pulmonary blood flow, which is highly dependent on the fluid dynamics through the interposition shunt between the two circulations. The purpose of this study is an optimization of the systemic-to-pulmonary artery shunt. In this study, We used computational fluid dynamic(CFD) models to determine the velocity profile in a systemic-to-pulmonary artery shunt and suggested a simplified method of calculating the blood flow in the shunt based on Ultrasound systems. We analyzed the flow characteristic variations and oscillatory shear index(OSI) due to the anastomosis angle and shunt diameter changing. Four different CFD models were constructed with the shunt sizes ranging from 3 to 3.5mm. The angle between the brachiocephalic trunk(BCT) and the shunt were $30^{\circ}$ and $45^{\circ}$, respectively. When the diameter is 3.0 mm, the oscillatory shear index decreased by 1.2% at $30^{\circ}$ as opposed to at $45^{\circ}$. When the diameter is 3.5 mm, it increased by 18% more at $30^{\circ}$ as opposed to at $45^{\circ}$. When the joint angle is $30^{\circ}$ and the diameter is 3.0 mm, the oscillatory shear index decreased by 4.1% in comparison with the 3.5 mm diameter. When the angle is $45^{\circ}$ and the diameter is 3.0 mm, the index increased by 14.6% in comparison with the 3.5 mm diameter.

Inner diameter of bearing race is automatically measured by complete inspection system after grinding process. Contact type three points supporting method is widely applied to automatic inner diameter measurement because of its excellent stability. However, the geometric consideration regarding three points supporting method is not sufficient. In this study, the error equation from geometric error analysis of three points supporting method is found. The effect of factors in the error equation is also investigated. The error equation is linear for difference of diameter in sample and master on range of tolerance. An error becomes more and more larger, when the distance of two supporting balls or the diameter of supporting ball are increased. In the result, some considerations are proposed for measurement of inner diameter by the three points supporting method.

A study on the micro particle blasting was conducted to find the optimum conditions of the blasted surface of aluminum 6061. The particle type such as $Al_2O_3$ and SiC, nozzle diameter, pressure, standoff distance and injection time were used as blasting conditions. Statistical method of orthogonal arrays(ANOVA) was used to find optimum conditions of maximum depth and maximum diameter of blasted surface. Particle type, nozzle diameter, and pressure were found to be the main factors of maximum blasted depth and diameter. Maximum blasted diameter was affected by increasing pressure and nozzle diameter but saturated maximum diameter. Maximum blasted depth was affected by pressure and nozzle diameter when aluminum 6061 was blasted with $Al_2O_3$ particle. The value of surface roughness was increased as pressure and nozzle diameter increased when aluminum 6061 was blasted with SiC.

Aims: To analyse the predictors of recurrence, disease free survival and overall survival in cases with endometrial cancer. Materials and Methods: A total of 152 women diagnosed with endometrial cancer were screened using a prospectively collected database including age, smoking history, menopausal status, body mass index, CA125, systemic disorders, tumor histology, tumor grade, lymphovascular space invasion, tumor diameter, cervical involvement, myometrial invasion, adnexal metastases, positive cytology, serosal involvement, other pelvic metastases, type of surgery, fertility sparing approach to assess their ability to predict recurrence, disease free survival and overall survival. Results: In ROC analyses tumor diameter was a significant predictor of recurrence (AUC:0.771, P<0.001). The optimal cut off value was 3.75 with 82% sensitivity and 63% specificity. In correlation analyses tumor grade (r=0.267, p=0.001), tumor diameter (r=0.297, p<0.001) and the serosal involvement (r=0.464, p<0.001) were found to significantly correlate with the recurrence. In Cox regression analyses when some different combinations of variables included in the model which are found to be significantly associated with the presence of recurrence, tumor diameter was found to be a significant confounder for disease free survival (OR=1.2(95 CI,1.016-1.394, P=0.031). On Cox regression for overall survival only serosal involvement was found to be a significant predictor (OR=20.8 (95 % CI 2.4-179.2, P=0.006). In univariate analysis of tumor diameter > 3.75 cm and the recurrence, there was 14 (21.9 %) cases with recurrence in group with high tumor diameter where as only 3 (3.4 %) cases group with smaller tumor size (Odds ratio:7.9 (95 %CI 2.2-28.9, p<0.001). Conclusions: Although most of the significantly correlated variables are part of the FIGO staging, tumor diameter was also found to be predictor for recurrence with higher values than generally accepted.

철도하중을 지지하고 있는 성토사면을 연직으로 굴착할 경우 철도노반의 안정성 확보를 위하여 보강이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 사면굴착 후 전면 벽체를 형성하고, 통상적으로 사용되고 있는 쏘일네일링 시스템보다 짧으면서도 대구경인 봉상보강재를 적용하여 보강재의 길이, 수평 간격, 직경 및 설치 각도를 기준으로 총 15개 Case로 구분하여 각각에 대하여 조건별 안정성을 3차원 수치해석을 이용하여 검토하였다. 수치해석시 보강재와 주변 그라우팅과의 접촉면을 고려하기 위하여 그라우트재의 점착력과 강성 및 주면장을 고려하였다. 굴착심도 3m인 경우, 그라우트 직경 변화에 따른 변위해석 결과 보강재 직경이 커질수록 변위가 감소하나 직경 0.3m일 경우와 0.4m일 경우의 변위 차이가 미소하므로 경제성을 고려한다면 직경 0.3m가 가장 적합한 것으로 검토되었다. 보강재 조건별로 굴착 시 지표면 침하량과 벽체의 수평변위 및 보강재의 응력 및 경제성을 수치해석적으로 검토한 결과, 보강재 길이 3m, 직경 0.3m, 수평간격 1.5m, 경사각도 10도로 보강재를 배치하는 것이 최적의 조건으로 검토되었다. 또한 보강노반의 잠재적인 파괴면은 보강재 끝단에서 약 60도의 경사면으로 나타났으며, 철도하중 재하 시 보강재가 지표침하 및 벽체 수평변위를 안정적으로 억제하고 있는 것으로 판단되었다.

우리나라 중북부의 산림에서 참나무류의 연년 직경생장 변화와 온도, 강수량, 일조량 등 기상요인과의 관계를 분석하였다. 연년직경생장은 262개의 참나무에서 채취한 생장편을 이용하여 측정하였다. 참나무류의 연년직경생장은 월악산보다 중왕산에서 더 좋았으며, 종별로는 졸참나무>굴참나무>신갈나무>떡갈나무 순으로 크게 나타났다. 월악산과 중왕산 두 지역간의 참나무류 생장패턴은 서로 달랐으며, 중왕산에서는 참나무류의 직경생장이 7월의 기온이나 일조량과 양의 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 월악산에서는 3월의 일조량과 6월의 강수량이 연륜생장과 유의한 양의 상관이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 같은 지역의 산림내에서 참나무류의 직경생장에 영향을 미치는 기상조건이 같아도 해발고, 지형, 토심과 같은 식생환경에 따라 기상인자의 영향정도가 다른 것으로 추정된다.

The Klee-Quaife problem is finding the minimum order ${\mu}(d,c,v)$ of the $(d,c,v)$ graph, which is a $c$-vertex connected $v$-regular graph with diameter $d$. Many authors contributed finding ${\mu}(d,c,v)$ and they also enumerated and classied the graphs in several cases. This problem is naturally extended to the case of digraphs. So we are interested in the extended Klee-Quaife problem. In this paper, we deal with an equivalent problem, finding the maximum diameter of digraphs with given order, focused on 2-regular case. We show that the maximum diameter of strongly connected 2-regular digraphs with order $n$ is $n-3$, and classify the digraphs which have diameter $n-3$. All 15 nonisomorphic extremal digraphs are listed.

A hypothetical accident in the containment vessel of liquid metal reactor could cause a pressure, temperature rise, and a strong aerosol release. The computer codes relating to the modelization of these accident make it necessary to use various input parameter, among which is the dynamic shape factor of aerosols produced. Combustion experiments of sodium spray fire carried out in a closed vessel, which was vertical cylinder made of 1.2m in diameter and 1.8m hight with a volume of 1.7$m^3$. The results of theoretical analysis presented here was compared to data obtained from experiments. The experimental results were summarized as follows. 1) The aerodynamic diameter and geometric diameter of aerosols are decreasing with increasing of injection pressure and injection temperature of sodium 2) The dynamic shape factor of aerosol is proportional to the aerodynamic diameter for a given particle. 3) The correspondence between the aerodynamic diameter and geometric diameter can be as $D_{ae}=0.70 D_{ge}$. 4) Peak pressure rose with increase in pressure and temperature of injection sodium, being more sensitive to the injection pressure than the injection temperature.
