  • Mechanism of a periodic oscillation of shock-induced combustion over a two- dimensional wedges and axi-symmetric cones were investigated through a series of numerical simulations at off-attaching condition of oblique detonation waves(ODW). A same computational domain over 40 degree half-angle was considered for two-dimensional and axi-symmetric shock-induced combustion phenomena. For two-dimensional shock-induced combustion, a 2H2+02+17N2 mixture was considered at Mach number was 5.85with initial temperature 292 K and initial pressureof 12 KPa. The Rankine-Hugoniot relation has solution of attached waves at this condition. For axi-symmetric shock-induced combustion, a H2+2O2+2Ar mixture was considered at Mach number was 5.0 with initial temperature 288 K and initial pressure of 200 mmHg. The flow conditions were based on the conditions of similar experiments and numerical studies.[1, 3]Numerical simulation was carried out with a compressible fluid dynamics code with a detailed hydrogen-oxygen combustion mechanism.[4, 5] A series of calculations were carried out by changing the fluid dynamic time scale. The length wedge is varied as a simplest way of changing the fluid dynamic time scale. Result reveals that there is a chemical kinetic limit of the detached overdriven detonation wave, in addition to the theoretical limit predicted by Rankine-Hugoniot theory with equilibrium chemistry. At the off-attaching condition of ODW the shock and reaction waves still attach at a wedge as a periodically oscillating oblique shock-induced combustion, if the Rankine-Hugoniot limit of detachment isbut the chemical kinetic limit is not.Mechanism of the periodic oscillation is considered as interactions between shock and reaction waves coupled with chemical kinetic effects. There were various regimes of the periodicmotion depending on the fluid dynamic time scales. The difference between the two-dimensional and axi-symmetric simulations were distinct because the flow path is parallel and uniform behind the oblique shock waves, but is not behind the conical shock waves. The shock-induced combustion behind the conical shockwaves showed much more violent and irregular characteristics.From the investigation of characteristic chemical time, condition of the periodic instability is identified as follows; at the detaching condition of Rankine-Hugoniot theory, (1) flow residence time is smaller than the chemical characteristic time, behind the detached shock wave with heat addition, (2) flow residence time should be greater than the chemical characteristic time, behind an oblique shock wave without heat addition.

  • 컴퓨터 기술의 발전으로 인해 근래 들어 수치지형발달모형을 개발하고 이를 이용하여 다양한 관점에서 지형발달과정의 역동성을 파악하기 위한 시도들이 활발하게 행해졌다. 하지만 국내에서는 수치지형발달모형을 활용하거나 개발하는 시도가 거의 없었다. 이에 본 연구에서는 2차원상에서 지질시간 규모의 지형발달을 모의하는 수치지형발달모형을 개발하고 이의 유용성을 확인해 보았다. 개발된 모형은 지표 구성물질을 기반암과 이동 가능한 토양으로 구분하고 토양층의 두께를 모의하기 위해 기반암 풍화를 포함한다. 이를 통해 사면에서는 운반제어환경뿐만이 아니라 풍화제어환경도 모의 가능하다. 또한 토양포행과 같은 사면에서의 점진적인 물질이동과는 별개로 활동(landslide) 역시 주요한 지형형성작용으로 포함한다. 그리고 하천 운반력이 하상물질의 양보다 큰 곳에서는 기반암 하상 침식이 발생하여 분리제어환경도 모의한다. 한편 무한 유향 알고리듬을 이용하여 흐름을 분배하기 때문에 최대하부 경사 유향 알고리듬을 이용할 때 나타나는 흐름 분배상의 문제점을 줄일 수 있다. 개발된 모형을 이용한 모의실험 결과, 본 모형은 지질시간 규모의 지형발달과정을 비교적 합리적으로 모의하였다.

  • 본 연구에서는 분자동역학 전산모사와 유한요소해석 기반의 균질화 기법을 통해 나노복합재의 열전도 특성을 정확하고 효율적으로 예측할 수 있는 순차적 멀티스케일 균질화 해석기법을 제안하였다. 나노입자의 크기효과가 나노복합재의 유효 열전도 특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위해 크기가 다른 구형 나노입자가 첨가된 나노복합재의 열전도 계수를 분자동역학 전산모사를 통해 예측했고, 그 결과 나노입자의 크기가 작아질수록 계면에서의 Kapitza열저항에 의해 나노복합재의 열전도 계수가 점차 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 나노입자의 크기효과를 균질화 해석모델을 통해 정확하게 묘사하기 위해 Kapitza 열저항에 의한 계면에서의 온도 불연속 구간과 고분자 기지가 높은 밀도를 가지며 흡착되는 유효계면을 추가적인 상으로 도입하여 나노복합재를 입자, Kapitza 계면, 유효계면, 기지로 구성된 4상의 연속체 구조로 모델링하였다. 이후 순차적 멀티스케일 균질화 해석기법을 통해 유효계면의 열전도 계수를 나노복합재의 열전도 계수로부터 역으로 예측했으며, 이를 입자의 반경에 대한 함수로 근사하였다. 근사 함수를 토대로 다양한 입자 체적분율과 반경에 대한 나노복합재의 유효 열전도 특성을 예측하였으며, 유효계면에 대한 매개변수 연구를 수행하였다.

  • 여름철에 자연환기는 온실의 온도를 낮추는데 중요한 역할을 한다. 온실의 형태, 환기창 종류, 환기창의 위치 등은 자연환기 성능에 큰 영향을 미친다. 본 연구에서는 전산유체역학(CFD)을 이용하여 다양한 천창구조에 대하여 측창에 따른 부력환기 효과를 비교분석 하였다. Boussinnesq 가정을 사용하여 전체 계산영역에 대한 부력효과를 시뮬레이션 하였다. 또한 RNG $K-{\varepsilon}$ 난류모델을 사용하였다. 일사량 효과를 시뮬레이션 하기 위해 Solar ray tracing과 함께 Discrete originates (DO) radiation 모델을 사용하였다. 실험온실 내부의 온도를 측정하여 CFD모델을 검증하였으며, 실험값과 계산값이 잘 일치하는 것으로 나타났다. 7가지의 천창구조에 대하여 온실의 내외부 온도차이와 환기횟수를 비교하였다. 내외부온도의 차이는 $3.2{\sim}9.6^{\circ}C$ 범위로 나타났고, 환기횟수는 $0.33{\sim}0.49min^{-1}$ 범위로 나타났다. 고깔형 천창구조 온실의 경우 내외부 온도차이가 $3.2^{\circ}C$로 가장 낮았고 환기횟수도 $0.49min^{-1}$로 가장 높게 나타나 환기효과가 가장 우수한 것으로 나타났다.

  • 본 논문은 주요 국제정치이론을 바탕으로 2009년 들어 지속되어온 북한의 사이버 상에서 대남공격 행태를 분석하여 한국의 정책적 대응방안을 제시하는 것이 목적이다. 이를 위해 본 논문은 국제안보학계에서 최근 주목받는 '사이버파워'의 행동영역과 특성 및 '강압의 역동성' 모델을 적용하였다. 북한의 사이버공격 유형은 권력기반 잠식, 지도자 리더십 공격과 음해, 군사작전 방해, 사회불안과 혼란유도 유형으로 분류된다. 사이버파워 유형과 수단 면에서 북한의 GPS 교란, 국방부 서버해킹, EMP 등은 보복 위협성이 강한 하드파워이고, 사이버머니 현금화, 렌섬웨어 등은 소프트웨어를 볼모로 거액의 돈을 강탈하거나 요구하는 점에서 설득 유인의 행동 영역에서 힘으로 분석된다. 북한의 사이버공격은 2차 핵실험을 기점으로 현실적 제재에 따른 탈출구적 성격을 갖는다. 한국은 북한의 공세적 사이버파워가 방법과 능력에서 변화하고 있음을 명확히 인식하고, 북한의 행동이 이득보다 감당할 수 없는 손실이 훨씬 더 클 것이라는 결과를 갖게끔 만드는 것이 중요하다. 이를 위해서는 사이버심리전, EMP공격 대비, 해킹보안의 전문성 강화 등 제도적 보완과 신설을 통해 공격과 방어가 동시에 이루어지는 사이버보안과 역량을 강화할 필요가 있다.

  • 영화관에서 발행한 주보와 전단 등 인쇄물에는 영화관의 프로그램과 상영·배급, 주요 행사 등의 정보가 담겨 있어 그 가치가 상당하다. 이를 통해 해당 영화관의 정체성과 선전 전략, 관객성 등 당시의 영화문화를 복원할 수 있는 구체적인 정보들을 파악할 수 있기 때문이다. 따라서 본 논문은 1926~1937년에 영화상설관 단성사에서 발행한 주보와 전단에 대해 소개하고, 영화관이 발행한 프로그램 인쇄물을 영화에 종속된 부가물로서 영화 역사의 단편으로 귀속시키는 것을 넘어, 문자문화와 영상문화, 관객과 영화가 교호하던 독립된 미디어로서 고찰하고자 한다. 1920~1930년대에 단성사는 조선극장, 우미관과 경쟁하는 과정에서 주보와 전단의 발행을 선전 전략의 핵심으로서 중요하게 인식하고 있었다. 이 시기 단성사는 수영사(秀英社)를 비롯한 경성 남촌의 여러 인쇄소를 통해 주보와 전단을 발행함으로써 당대의 선전전(宣傳戰)에서 우위를 점하며 영화문화를 주도하게 된다. 단성사에서 발행한 인쇄물이 큰 효과를 거둘 수 있었던 것은 미디어가 본질적으로 지니고 있는 '매개성'을 전략적으로 잘 활용하고 있었기 때문인데, 이는 크게 세 가지 차원과 관련되어있다. 첫째는, 주보와 전단이 지면을 통해 문자문화와 영상문화를 매개하는 방식이다. 단성사의 인쇄물은 '명멸하는 미디어'로서, 짧은 수명을 상쇄하기 위해 문자와 영상을 변증법적으로 매개하여 하나의 지면에 감각적이고 직관적으로 배치하는 전략을 취했다. 둘째는, 당대의 관객을 팬(fan)으로 호명하며 영화문화와 매개하는 방식이다. 단성사의 인쇄물은 끊임없이 관객을 팬으로 호명하고, 이들을 충성도 높은 집단으로 조직하면서 관객과 영화 사이를 매개하였다. 셋째는, 식민지 조선과, 영화로서의 '세계'를 매개하는 방식이다. 당시의 조선인들은 인쇄매체를 통해 조선과 세계의 '차이'를 감각하고 인식하였다. 본 논문은 이와 같이 1920~1930년대 경성의 문화지형에서 단성사의 인쇄매체가 '명멸하는 미디어'로서 독립된 문화영역을 구축하였음을 밝힐 것이다.

  • 환경 요구 조건의 강화로 오래된 탈질 설비에 대한 성능 개선이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 전산 해석 기법을 이용하여 성능 향상의 가능성을 제시하고자 하였다. 입구 안내 깃과 곡확산부 등 설비 내 유로의 기하학적인 형상의 수정과 암모니아 분사량의 제어 등 설계와 운전 조건을 둘 다 변경하여 해석을 수행하였다. 촉매 층에 유입되는 혼합가스의 유동 균일성과 NH3/NO 조성비, 설비의 압력 강하 등 3가지 성능변수 관점에서 기존에 운영되는 조건과 본 연구에서 제시된 조건을 비교하였다. 전산 해석에서 적용된 유동장의 범위는 연소로 절탄기의 출구에서 공기 예열기의 입구까지로 탈질 설비의 전 영역이다. 전산 해석 도구로 열유체 전용 소프트웨어인 ANSYS-Fluent를 사용하여 유동 특성을 해석하여 성능을 도출하였고 최적화 알고리즘인 Design Xplorer를 사용하여 암모니아의 분사량을 노즐별로 조절하였다. 변경된 설비 조건은 기존의 조건과 비교하여 유동 균일성과 NH3/NO 조성비는 각각 45.1%와 8.7% 향상되었으나 전체 압력 강하는 1.24% 증가하였다.

  • 본 연구동향보고서는 2005년 6월 12일부터 16일까지 서울에서 개최된 2005년도 국제 전자세라믹 학술회의(International Conference on Electroceramics 2005: ICE-2005)에서 발표된 논문을 중심으로 국내외 전자세라믹 학계의 최신연구동향을 분석한 것이다. ICE-2005는 한국을 포함하여 전 세계 17개국에서 450여명에 달하는 전자세라믹 연구자들이 모여서 최신연구결과를 발표하고 토의하는 국제학술회의였기 때문에, 이곳에서 발표된 논문의 주제와 내용을 수집$\cdot$분석함으로써 국내는 물론 해외의 최신 전자세라믹 연구동향을 파악하고 새로이 각광받는 연구주제들을 손쉽게 파악할 수 있었다. ICE-2005에 제출된 연구 논문에 대한 분석과 더불어서, 전자세라믹 연구에 대한 이해를 돕기 위하여 본 연구동향 보고서의 집필자들에 의해 국내외 학계 전반에 걸친 자료 수집과 설명 또한 함께 이루어졌다. 연구동향에 대한 분석은 정보/전자세라믹(Informatics), 환경 에너지 세라믹(Energy & Environment), 전자세라믹의 제작 공정 및 특성분석(Processing & Characterization), 새로운 연구주제(Emerging Field) 둥 4개의 커다란 범주로 구분하여 이루어졌으며, 그 각각에 대해서 다시 몇 개의 세부적인 연구주제로 분류되어 논의 되었다. 정보전자세라믹 분야에서는 강유전체 및 고유전체, 산화물 및 질화물 반도체, 광전물질, 다층구조 전자세라믹, 고주파용 전자세라믹, 압전체 및 MEMS 등에 대한 동향분석이 이루어졌으며, 압전응용 및 강유전체에 대한 논문이 다수를 차지하는 것으로부터 정보전자 세라믹분야의 세계적인 연구개발 경향을 읽을 수 있었다. 환경 에너지 세라믹 분야에서는 재충전 배터리, 수소저장장치, 연료전지, 신개념 에너지 변환장치 등에 대한 연구논문이 주류를 이루었으며, 최근의 고유가에 의한 에너지 위기에 의하여 연료전지와 에너지 창출 시스템(energy harvesting system), 그리고 열전체를 이용한 발전이 새로이 주목받는 연구 분야임을 알 수 있었다. 전자세라믹의 제작공정 및 특성분석 분야에서는 분역과 스트레인 조절공정, 신개념 제작합성 공정, 나노전자세라믹, 단결정 성장기술, 전자세라믹의 이론 및 모형 연구 등의 분야에 대하여 동향분석을 행하였으며, 국내외 전자세라믹 분야의 연구개발은 최근의 나노 연구유행에 부응한 나노구조 전자세라믹과 이동통신 산업에 필수적인 LTCC 등의 다층구조 전자세라믹 연구에 집중되고 있다고 파악되었다. 그 외에도 나노결정질 전자세라믹, 스마트 센서용 전자세라믹, 생체세라믹 등이 최근 전자세라믹 학회의 주목을 받는 새로운 연구주제들로 떠오르고 있다. 최근 전세계 전자세라믹 학계의 연구동향을 분석한 본 보고서는, 국내 전자세라믹 연구자들에게 선진 연구진의 연구개발 경향에 대한 정보를 제공함은 물론, 과학기술 정책입안에도 주요한 참고자료로 활용될 수 있으리라 기대된다.

파토스에의 거리와 합리적 거래의 감성화 -1990년대 한국영화 장르의 변전(變轉)과 감성의 재편 (Keeping Distance from Pathos and Turning Rational Trade into Emotions -The Change of Genres and the Reorganization of Emotions in the South Korean Films in the 1990s)

  • 본고는 1990년대 한국영화를 장르의 변전과 감성의 재편이라는 차원에서 고찰한 것이다. 1990년대는 영화산업구조와 미디어 환경의 획기적 변화에 따라 장르의 변전과 재편이 일어나며 한국영화사의 패러다임이 바뀌는 시기다. 본고에서는 이러한 전환이 1987년 민주화와 1998년 IMF로 상징되는 세계자본주의화에 의한 감성의 변화와 연관된다고 보고 영화 텍스트에 나타난 현상을 분석하며 그 이면의 계기와 맥락을 밝혀보고자 했다. 이 연구가 기존의 논의와 다르게 1990년대 한국영화사에 접근한 지점은 다음 세 가지다. 첫째, 1990년대에 왜 하필이면 로맨틱코미디 장르가 부상했는지, 로맨틱코미디는 어떤 단계를 거쳐 성립된 것인지에 대해서는 아직 심도 있는 논의가 이루어지지 못하였으므로 우선적으로 이 부분에 착목했다. 둘째, 1987년부터 1999년까지를 전환기로 보고 이 시기에 나타난 장르와 감성의 주류를 읽어내기 위해 최고 흥행작들을 분석 대상으로 삼았다. 그러한 영화들은 장르 판도와 대중의 취향을 상징적으로 보여주는 텍스트이기 때문이다. 셋째, 멜로드라마와 로맨틱코미디에 대한 분리된 고찰에서 벗어나 두 장르를 아우르는 감성구조를 살펴 봄으로써 1990년대 한국영화에 보다 거시적이고 역동적으로 접근하고자 했다. 역사는 면면한 흐름으로 이어지는 것인 만큼 그것은 이전 시대와의 단절이 아니므로 연속선상에서 변곡점과 계기에 유의할 때 변화의 역학과 구조가 적시될 수 있기 때문이다. 이러한 접근을 통해 도출된 결론은 다음과 같다. 1980년대까지 한국 영화의 주류 장르는 멜로드라마였고, 이는 구조적 정합성에 어긋나는 모순과 과잉의 요소들이 파토스에 의해 상쇄되거나 봉합되는 오랜 관습을 유지해왔다. 여기에서 구조적 정합성이란 합당한 규약이나 거래가 지켜지지 않는다는 것이다. 1990년대에 장르가 재편되는 과정은 구조적 정합성을 희생하는 관습에 거리를 확보하는 가운데 진행된다. 그 방향은 합리적 이성주의와 자본의 논리에 의한 통어가 강화되어 가는 것이다. 그것은 웃음을 통해 대상에 대해 거리를 두면서 발언의 수위를 높이고 임계를 확장하는 코미디로 시작하여 감성을 취향의 항목으로 기호화하고 상호 합의와 실리적 거래의 논리를 통해 구축해가는 로맨스로 전개된다. 이를 통해 1990년대 한국영화는 무조건적 가족주의에 긴박된 파토스의 서사로부터 멀어져가는 쪽으로 발전되어 간다. 이는 1980년대 후반 이후 한국사회가 근대 합리주의의 쌍생아로서의 민주주의와 자본주의의 상향된 궤도에 진입하는 것과 동궤를 이루는 것이다.

  • The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow conditions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experimental measurements were in good agreement with numerical results except in flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE: graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compliance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70$\pm$1.32mmHg/min)compared to CF dialyzers(4.32$\pm$0.55mmHg/min)(p<0.05). However, there was no observable difference in the UFR between the two dialyzers. Neither APD nor UFR showed any significant increase with an increasing number of reuses for up to more than 20reuses. A substantial number of failures observed in APD(larger than 20mmHe/min)on the reused dialyzers(2 out of 40 CP and S out 26 C-DAK) were attributed to the Possible damage on the fibers. The CF 15-11 HFDs which failed APD test did not show changes in the UFR compared to normal dialyzers indicating that APD is a more sensitive test than UFR test to evaluate the integrity of the fibers. 30527 T00401030527 ^x For quantitative measurement of reflected light from a clinical diagnostic strip, a prototype old reflectance photometer was designed. The strip loader and cassette were made to obtain more accurate reflectance parameters. The strip was illuminated at 45˚c through optical fiber and the intensity of reflected light was determined at rectanguLat angle using a photodiode. The kubelka-munk coefficient and reflection optical density were determined ar four different wavelengths(500, 550, 570 and 610nm) for blood glucose strip. For higher concentration than 300mg/41 about glucose, a saturation state of abforbance was observed at 500, 550 and 570nm. The correlation between glucose concentration and parameters was the best at 610nm. 30535 T00401030535 ^x Radiation-induced fibrosarcoma tumors were grown on the flanks of C3H mice. The mice were divided into two groups. One group was injected with Photofrin II, intravenously (2.5mg/kg body weight). The other group received no Photofrin II. Mice from both groups were irradialed for approximately 15 minutes at 100, 300, or 500 mW/cm2 with the argon (488nm/514.5 nm), dye(628nm) and gold vapor (pulsed 628 nm) laser light. A photosensitizer behaved as an added absorber. Under our experimental conditions, the presence of Photolfrin II increased surface temperature by at least 40% and the temperature rise due to 300 mW/cm2 irradiation exceeded values for hyperthermia. Light and temperature distributions with depth were estimated by a computer model. The model demonstrated the influence of wavelength on the thermal process and proved to be a valuable tool to investigate internal temperature rise. 30536 T00401030536 ^x We investigated the structural geometry of thirty-eight Korean femurs. The purpose of this study is to identify major geometrical differences between Korean femurs 3nd others that we believe belong to Caucasians so that we would be able to get insights into the femoral component design that fits Asians including Koreans. We utilized computerized tomography (CT) images of femurs extracted from cadavers. The CT images were transformed into bitmap data by using a film scanner, and then analyzed by using a commercially available software called Image v.1.0 and a Macintosh IIci computer.The resulting data were compared with already published data. The major results show that the geometry of the Korean femurs is significantly different from that of Caucasians: (1) the anteversion angle and the canal flare index are greater by the amount of approximately 8˚ and 0.5, respectively, (2) the shape of the isthmus cross section is more round, and (3) the distance between the teaser trochanter and the proximal border of the isthmus is shelter by about 15 mm. The results suggested that the femoral component suitable for Asians should be different from the currently-used components designed and manufactured mostly by European or American companies. 30537 T00401030537 ^x It is well known that nonlinear propagation characteristics of the wave in the tissue may give very useful information for the medical diagnoisis. In this paper, a new method to detect nonlinear propagation characteristics of the internal vibration in the tissue for the low frequency mechanical vibration by using bispectral analysis is proposed. In the method, low frequency vibration of f0( = 100Hz) is applied on the surface of the object, and the waveform of the internal vibration x (t) is measured from Doppler frequency modulation of silmultaneously transmitted probing ultrasonic waves. Then, the bispectra of the signal x (t) at the frequencies (f0, f0) and (f0, 2f0) are calculated to estimate the nonlinear propagation characteristics as their magnitude ratio, w here since bispectrum is free from the gaussian additive noise we can get the value with high S/N. Basic experimental system is constructed by using 3.0 MHz probing ultrasonic waves and the several experiments are carried out for some phantoms. Results show the superiority of the proposed method to the conventional method using power spectrum and also its usefulness for the tissue characterization. 30541 T00401030541 ^x This paper describes the implementation of a computerized radial pulse diagnosis by aids of a clinical expert. On this base, we composed of the radial pulse diagnosis system in korean traditional medicine. The system composed of a radial pulse wave detection system and a radial pulse diagnosis system. With a detection system, we detected Inyoung and Cheongu radial pulse wave and processed it.

To synthesize microspheres for biomedical application, "two stage shot growth method" was developed. The uniformity ratio of synthesized microspheres was always smaller than 1.05. And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6~13 times higher than that of the microspheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions. The maximum adsorbed amount was obtained in the neighborhood of pH 4.5. Isoelectric point of bovine albumin is pH 5.0, so experimental result shows that it shifted to acid area. The adsorption isotherm was obtained, the plateau region was always reached at 2.Og/L (bulk concentration of bovine albumin).The effect of the kind and the amount of surface functional group was also examined. 30575 T00401030575 ^x A medical image workstation was developed using multimedia technique. The system based on PC-486DX was designed to acquire medical images produced by medical imaging instruments and related audio information, that is, doctors' reporting results. Input information was processed and analyzed, then the results were presented in the form of graph and animation. All the informations of the system were hierarchically related with the image as the apex. Processing and analysis algorithms were implemented so that the diagnostic accuracy could be improved. The diagnosed information can be transferred for patient diagnosis through LAN(local area network). 30592 T00401030592 ^x In the conventional infrared imaging system, complex infrared lens systems are usually used for directing collimated narrow infrared beams into the high speed 2-dimensional optic scanner. In this paper, a simple reflective infrared optic system with a 2-dimensional optic scanner is proposed for the realization of medical infrared thermography system. It has been experimentally proven that the intfrared thermography system composed of the proposed optic system has the temperature resolution of 0.1˚c under the spatial resolution of lmrad, the image matrix size of 256 X 240, and tile imaging time of 4 seconds. 30593 T00401030593 ^x In this paper, MIIS (Medical Image Information System) has been designed and implemented using INGRES RDBMS, which is based on a client/server architecture. The implemented system allows users to register and retrieve patient information, medical images and diagnostic reports. It also provides the function to display these information on workstation windows simultaneously by using the designed menu-driven graphic user interface. The medical image compression/decompression techniques are implemented and integrated into the medical image database system for the efficient data storage and the fast access through the network. 30594 T00401030594 ^x In this paper, computerized BEAM was implemented for the space domain analysis of EEG. Trans-formation from temporal summation to two-dimensional mappings is formed by 4 nearest point inter-polaton method. Methods of representation of BEAM are two. One is dot density method which classify brain electrical potential 9 levels by dot density of gray levels and the other is colour method which classify brain electrical 12 levels by red-green colours. In this BEAM, instantaneous change and average energy distribution over any arbitrary time interval of brain electrical activity could be observed and analyzed easily. In the frequency domain, the distribution of energy spectrum of a special band can easily be distinguished normality and abnormality. 30608 T00401030608 ^x Laboratory information system (LIS) is a key tool to manage laboratory data in clinical pathology. Our department has developed an information system for routine hematology using down-sized computer system. We have used an IBM 486 compatible PC with 16MB main memory, 210 MB hard disk drive, 9 RS-232C port and 24 pin dot printer. The operating system and database management system were SCO UNIX and SCO foxbase, respectively. For program development, we used Xbase language provided by SCO foxbase. The C language was used for interface purpose. To make the system use friendly, pull-down menu was used. The system connected to our hospital information system via application program interface (API), so the information related to patient and request details is automatically transmitted to our computer. Our system interfaced with fwd complete blood count analyzers(Sysmex NE-8000 and Coulter STKS) for unidirectional data tansmission from analyzer to computer. The authors suggests that this system based on down-sized computer could provide a progressive approach to total LIS based on local area network, and the implemented system could serve as a model for other hospital's LIS for routine hematology. 30609 T00401030609 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. To use as the structural matrix of the composite, collagen was purified from human umbilical cord. The obtained collagen was treated by pepsin to remove telopeptides, and finally, the immune-free atelocollagen was produced: The cross linked atelocollagen was highly resistant to the collagenase induced collagenolysis. The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength. 30618 T00401030618 ^x This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively. 30619 T00401030619 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased. 30620 T00401030620 ^x We have developed a monoleaflet polymer valve as an inexpensive and viable alternative, especially for short-term use in the ventricular assist device or total artificial heart. The frame and leaflet of the polymer valve were made from polyurethane, To evaluate the hemodynamic performance of the polymer valve a comparative study of flow dynamics past a polymer valve and a St. Jude Medical prosthetic valve under physiological pulsatile flow conditions in vitro was made. Comparisons between the valves were made on the transvalvular pressure drop, regurgitation volume and maximum valve opening area. The polymer valve showed smaller regurgitation volume and transvalvular pressure drop compared to the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. The results showed that the functional characteristics of the polymer valve compared favorably with those of the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. 30621 T00401030621 ^x Explosive evaporative removal process of biological tissue by absorption of a CW laser has been simulated by using gelatin and a multimode Nd:YAG laser. Because the point of maximun temperature of laser-irradiated gelatin exists below the surface due to surface cooling, evaporation at the boiling temperature is made explosively from below the surface. The important parameters of this process are the conduction loss to laser power absorption (defined as the conduction-to-laser power parameter, Nk), the convection heat transfer at the surface to conduction loss (defined as Bi), dimensionless extinction coefficient (defined as Br.), and dimensionless irradiation time (defined as Fo). Dependence of Fo on Nk and Bi has been observed by experiment, and the results have been compared with the numerical results obtained by solving a 2-dimensional conduction equation. Fo and explosion depth (from the surface to the point of maximun temperature) are increased when Nk and Bi are increased.To find out the minimum laser power for explosive evaporative removal process, steady state analysis has been also made. The limit of Nk to induce evaporative removal, which is proportional to the inverse of the laser power, has been obtained. 30622 T00401030622 ^x N1 and N2 gross neural action potentials were measured from the round window of the guinea pig cochlea at the onset of the acoustic stimuli. N1-N2 audiograms were made by means of regulating stimulant intensities in order to produce constant N1-N2 potentials as criteria for different input tone pip frequencies. The lowest threshold was measured with an input tone pip I5 dB SPL in intensity and 12 KHz in frequency when the animal was in normal physiological condition. The procedure of experimental measurements is explained in detail. This experimental approach is very useful for the investigation of the Cochlear function. Both noN1inear and active functions of the Cochlea can be monitored by N1-N2 audiograms. 30623 T00401030623 ^x In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), we use boundary current and voltage measurements toprovide the information about the cross-sectional distribution of electrical impedance or resistivity. One of the major problems in EIT has been the inaccessibility of internal voltage or current data in finding the internal impedance values. We propose a new image reconstruction method using internal current density data measured by NMR. We obtained a two-dimensional current density distribution within a phantom by processing the real and imaginary MR images from a 4.77 NMR machine. We implemented a resistivity mage reconstruction algorithm using the finite element method and sensitivity matrix. We presented computer simulation results of the mage reconstruction algorithm and furture direction of the research. 30624 T00401030624 ^x A new method of digital image analysis technique for discrimination of cancer cell was presented in this paper. The object image was the Thyroid eland cells image that was diagnosed as normal and abnormal (two types of abnormal: follicular neoplastic cell, and papillary neoplastic cell), respectively. By using the proposed region segmentation algorithm, the cells were segmented into nucleus. The 16 feature parameters were used to calculate the features of each nucleus. A9 a consequence of using dominant feature parameters method proposed in this paper, discrimination rate of 91.11% was obtained for Thyroid Gland cells. 30625 T00401030625 ^x An electrical stimulator was designed to induce locomotion for paraplegic patients caused by central nervous system injury. Optimal stimulus parameters, which can minimize muscle fatigue and can achieve effective muscle contraction were determined in slow and fast muscles in Sprague-Dawley rats. Stimulus patterns of our stimulator were designed to simulate electromyographic activity monitored during locomotion of normal subjects. Muscle types of the lower extremity were classified according to their mechanical property of contraction, which are slow muscle (msoleus m.) and fast muscle (medial gastrocneminus m., rectus femoris m., vastus lateralis m.). Optimal parameters of electrical stimulation for slow muscles were 20 Hz, 0.2 ms square pulse. For fast muscle, 40 Hz, 0.3 ms square pulse was optimal to produce repeated contraction. Higher stimulus intensity was required when synergistic muscles were stimulated simultaneously than when they were stimulated individually. Electrical stimulation for each muscle was designed to generate bipedal locomotion, so that individual muscles alternate contraction and relaxation to simulate stance and swing phases. Portable electrical stimulator with 16 channels built in microprocessor was constructed and applied to paraplegic patients due to lumbar cord injury. The electrical stimulator restored partially gait function in paraplegic patients. 30626 T00401030626 ^x Two-Dimensional modelling of the Cochlear biomechanics is presented in this paper. The Laplace partial differential equation which represents the fluid mechanics of the Cochlea has been transformed into two-dimensional electrical transmission line. The procedure of this transformation is explained in detail. The comparison between one and two dimensional models is also presented. This electrical modelling of the basilar membrane (BM) is clearly useful for the next approach to the further. Development of active elements which are essential in the producing of the sharp tuning of the BM. This paper shows that two-dimension model is qualitatively better than one-dimensional model both in amplitude and phase responses of the BM displacement. The present model is only for frequency response. However because the model is electrical, the two-dimensional transmission line model can be extended to time response without any difficult. 30627 T00401030627 ^x A method has been proposed for the fully automatic detection of left ventricular endocardial boundary in 2D short axis echocardiogram using geometric model. The procedure has the following three distinct stages. First, the initial center is estimated by the initial center estimation algorithm which is applied to decimated image. Second, the center estimation algorithm is applied to original image and then best-fit elliptic model estimation is processed. Third, best-fit boundary is detected by the cost function which is based on the best-fit elliptic model. The proposed method shows effective result without manual intervention by a human operator. 30628 T00401030628 ^x The intelligent trajectory control method that controls moving direction and average velocity for a prosthetic arm is proposed by pattern recognition and force estimations using EMG signals. Also, we propose the real time trajectory planning method which generates continuous accelleration paths using 3 stage linear filters to minimize the impact to human body induced by arm motions and to reduce the muscle fatigue. We use combination of MLP and fuzzy filter for pattern recognition to estimate the direction of a muscle and Hogan's method for the force estimation. EMG signals are acquired by using a amputation simulator and 2 dimensional joystick motion. The simulation results of proposed prosthetic arm control system using the EMf signals show that the arm is effectively followed the desired trajectory depended on estimated force and direction of muscle movements. 30638 T00401030638 ^x A new neural network architecture for the recognition of patterns from images is proposed, which is partially based on the results of physiological studies. The proposed network is composed of multi-layers and the nerve cells in each layer are connected by spatial filters which approximate receptive fields in optic nerve fields. In the proposed method, patterns recognition for complicated images is carried out using global features as well as local features such as lines and end-points. A new generating method of matched filers representing global features is proposed in this network. 30659 T00401030659 ^x An implementation scheme of the magnetic nerve stimulator using a switching mode power supply is proposed.
