In this paper, we proposed planar spiral inductors based on AC coupling for high-frequency wireless signal transmission. Design and characteristics of various structures of the inductor were analyzed. Capacitance between the inductors can be reduced by positioning two thin-film inductors in parallel. So two structures were proposed. First structure is inter-diagonal structure. This structure was made not to overlap the wire part of the paralleled two inductors. Second structure is On-chip type structure that the two thin-film inductors were in parallel but located on diagonal line not to face each other. The resonance in this structure was reduced from twice to once by increasing horizontal distance between the two thin-film inductors, because the capacitance effect between the two thin-film inductors decreases when the distance between the two inductors increases.

DLC films were deposited using the ECR-PECVD method with the fixed deposition condition, such as ECR power, methane and hydrogen gas-flow rates and deposition time, for various substrate bias voltage. We have investigated the ion bombardment effect induced by the substrate bias voltage on films during the deposition of film. The characteristic of the films were analyzed using the FTIR, Raman, and UV/Vis spectroscopy analysis shows that the amount of dehydrogenation in films was increased with the increase of substrate bias voltage and films thickness was decreased. Raman scattering analysis shows that integrated intensity ratio(ID/IG) of the D and G peak was increased as the substrate bias voltage increased and films hardness was increased. Optical transmittances of DLC film were decreased with increasing deposition time and substrate bias voltage. From these results, it can be concluded that films deposited at this experimental have the enhanced characteristics of DLC because of the ion bombardment effect on films during the deposition of film.

In this paper we present an implantable pressure sensor to measure real-time blood pressure by monitoring mechanical movement of artery. Sensor is composed of inductors (L) and capacitors (C) which are formed by microfabrication and direct bonding on two biocompatible substrates (quartz). When electrical potential is applied to the sensor, the inductors and capacitors generates a LC resonance circuit and produce characteristic resonant frequencies. Real-time variation of the resonant frequency is monitored by an external measurement system using inductive coupling. Structural and electrical simulation was performed by Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) programs, ANSYS and HFSS, to optimize geometry of sensor. Ultrafast laser (femto-second) cutting and MEMS process were executed as sensor fabrication methods with consideration of brittleness of the substrate and small radial artery size. After whole fabrication processes, we got sensors of $3mm{\times}15mm{\times}0.5mm$. Resonant frequency of the sensor was around 90 MHz at atmosphere (760 mmHg), and the sensor has good linearity without any hysteresis. Longterm (5 years) stability of the sensor was verified by thermal acceleration testing with Arrhenius model. Moreover, in-vitro cytotoxicity test was done to show biocompatiblity of the sensor and validation of real-time blood pressure measurement was verified with animal test by implant of the sensor. By integration with development of external interrogation system, the proposed sensor system will be a promising method to measure real-time blood pressure.

Purpose : Eosinophilic granuloma is a rare benign tumor that is characterized histologically by the presence of destructive granulomas containing numerous Langerhans, cells. The most common presentation of eosinophilic granuloma is a painful, immobile scalp mass in the frontal and parietal bones occurring predominantly in children and adolescents or young adults. We report a representative case of eosinophilic granuloma. Methods : A 16-year-old woman complained of an enlarging fixed scalp mass without pain and tenderness which measured $3{\times}4.5cm$ at the frontal area, which had been found incidentally 2 months before. Plain skull x-ray showed a punched-out bone lesion. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging showed a non-enhancing osteolytic lesion. The tumor and surrounding bony edges were completely removed via a bicoronal approach. The bony defect was reconstructed with bone cement. Results : The tumor was involved frontal bone and dura mater. We confirmed the tumor by the documentation of Birbeck's granules by electron microscopy. There is no evidence of local recurrence during postoperative 1.5 years. Conclusion : The present case shows the characteristic feature of frontal bone involvment of the eosinophilic granuloma. The prognosis of eosinophilic granuloma depend on age at diagnosis and number of bones involved. We consider that best choice of treatment for eosinophilic granuloma is surgical excision.

The biological synthesis of nanoparticles has gained considerable attention in view of their excellent biocompatibility and low toxicity. We isolated and purified rhamnolipids from Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain BS-161R, and these purified rhamnolipids were used to synthesize silver nanoparticles. The purified rhamnolipids were further characterized and the structure was elucidated based on one- and two-dimensional $^1H$ and $^{13}C$ NMR, FT-IR, and HR-MS spectral data. Purified rhamnolipids in a pseudoternary system of n-heptane and water system along with n-butanol as a cosurfactant were added to the aqueous solutions of silver nitrate and sodium borohydride to form reverse micelles. When these micelles were mixed, they resulted in the rapid formation of silver nanoparticles. The synthesized nanoparticles were characterized by UV-Visible spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The nanoparticles formed had a sharp adsorption peak at 410 nm, which is characteristic of surface plasmon resonance of the silver nanoparticles. The nanoparticles were monodispersed, with an average particle size of 15.1 nm (${\sigma}={\pm}5.82$ nm), and spherical in shape. The EDS analysis revealed the presence of elemental silver signal in the synthesized nanoparticles. The formed silver nanoparticles exhibited good antibiotic activity against both Grampositive and Gram-negative pathogens and Candida albicans, suggesting their broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity.

This paper proved the reason why the Batdam does not collapse in the 50m/s typhoon by the Circulation of the Stack Effect and traced the correlation with crops in spring, summer, autumn and winter. Batdam, which is built with oedam, is a magic wall wich is played the role of 3rd layer over 22,000km, when stacked in a field, has the inertia like a linear motion of constant velocity and resists winds no matter how strong it blows. We analyzed the reason of Batdam 1.5 meters, Oreum 200 times of Batdam, and Hallasan 1,300 times Batdam, and analyzed the resonance of the characteristic function. In this paper, we adapted to natural climate change, and we built a batdam to derive the height of the batdam and neutral plane for farming according to the seasonal characteristics, and designed the relationship between natural intelligence control.

We have studied the relative stability and atomic structures of five $C_{20}X_2$ regioisomers obtained as diadducts of a $C_{20}$ cage (X = H, F, Cl, Br, and OH). All the regioisomers are geometric isomers, i.e., they differ in their spatial arrangement. Full-geometry optimizations of the regioisomers have been performed using the hybrid density-functional (B3LYP/6-31G(d, p)) method. Our results suggest that the cis-1 regioisomer (the 1,2-diadduct) is the most stable and that the second most stable is the trans-2 (1,13-diadduct) regioisomer, implying that the long-range interaction between the two adducts and the resonance effect are more pronounced than the diadduct-induced strain in the $C_{20}$ cage. The HOMO and LUMO characteristics of each regioisomer with the same symmetry of structural regioisomers except $C_{20}(OH)_2$ are topologically same. This suggests that by using an entirely different set of characteristic chemical reactions for each regioisomer, we can distinguish between the five regioisomers for each $C_{20}$ diadduct derivative.

A Common peroneal nerve palsy caused by ganglionic cyst is very rare condition but well recognised entities. There have been three previous reports describing the magnetic resonance image (MRI) findings of peroneal nerve entrapment due to a ganglionic cyst. Ultrasonography, MRI, and electromyography (EMG), nerve conduction velocity (NCV), and microscopic examination were taken for diagnosis. A tubular structure near the fibular neck extending longitudinally over several slices with an inferior extension towards the superior tibiofibular joint with high T2 signal intensity was characteristic. The peroneal nerve was exposed and the ganglionic cyst was excised. The nerve was paralysed immediately after operation, but at 4 month after operation, started recovery of the function gradually and has recovered completely at 7 month. MRI is helpful to detect the extent, location, and origin of the cyst. Meticulous surgical excision can provide favorable result.

Thermal Marangoni flow has been observed inside droplets on heated surfaces, finally resulting in a coffee stain effect. This study aims to visualize and control the thermal Marangoni flow by employing periodic vertical vibration. The variations in the contact angle and internal volume of the droplet as it evaporates is observed by using a combination of continuous light and a still camera. With regard to the internal velocity, the particle image velocimetry system is applied to visualize the internal thermal Marangoni flow. In order to estimate the internal temperature gradient and surface tension on the surface of a droplet, the theoretical model based on the conduction and convection theory of heat transfer is applied. Thus, the internal velocity increases with an increase in plate temperature. The flow directions of the Marangoni and gravitational flows are opposite, and hence, it may be possible to control the coffee stain effect.

High speed railway bridge is affected on safety of bridge by dynamic amplification effect, when dynamic response of bridge is equal to effect cycle load for rolling stock axle according to high speed operation train. And excessive deformation of structure has negative effect on operation safety of train and comfort of passenger due to fluctuation of wheel load by torsion of track etc. and decrease of contact force on vehicle wheel-rail. To ensure the safety of track and train operation safety, it is have to perform the study on resonance and deformation of structure. That criteria and requirement of railway bridge is limitation of vertical acceleration on deck for dynamic behavior of structure, contact of vehicle wheel and rail, limitation of face distortion and rotation angle of end deck, and limitation of vertical displacement by train. Unlike KYEONGBU High Speed Railway, New constructed HONAM High Speed Railway have to applied the new requirement for dynamic behavior safety according to change of condition which is type of ballast (slab ballast), interval of track, and actual rolling stock load. Therefore, in this paper, it was conformed the dynamic characteristic due to parameter, which related with above mentioned criteria, for steel composite bridges.
