승용차에 있어 엔진의 공회전시나 주행중에 발생하는 여러 형태의 진동 및 소음의 저감은 승차감 및 차량의 안정성에 있어 중요한 과제가 되고 있다. 이러한 소음, 진동은 주로 엔진에서 발생하는 토크의 비주기적인 변동성분이 클러치(clutch), 변속기(transmission), 구동축을 거쳐 바퀴로 전달되는 과정에서 발생한다. 셔플(shuffle)은 주행중 가속페달(accelerator)을 급조작(tip-in, tip-out)하였을 때 차량이 전후로 과도적으로 울렁거리는 종진동 현상을 말하며, 이것은 가속페달의 급조작으로 인해 엔진토크가 큰 변동을 일으키고, 동력전달계를 통해 타이어에 전달된 이 토오크는 타이어축에서 구동측으로 역토오크를 발생시키기 때문에 발생한다. 여기서 팁-인(tip-in)이란 승용차를 저속으로 운전하다가 갑자기 가속페달을 밟는 경우를 말하며, 팁-아웃(tip-out)은 반대로 고속상태에서 갑자기 가속페달을 떼는 경우를 말한다. 실험과 시뮬레이션을 사용한 자동차 동력전달계의 비틀림 진동에 대한 연구는 이미 여러 연구자들에 의해 보고되었다. H.Arai은 2자유도 비선형 모델을 사용하여 클러치 접속시 발생하는 외란과 계의 안정성을 고려하여 시뮬레이션을 수행하였고, M.Kataoka는 기어의 공차(clearance)를 고려한 변속기의 강제 비틀림 진동을 실험과 시뮬레이션을 통하여 해석하였다. 그리고, Wu Hui-Le는 자동차 동력전달계의 비틀림 진동 현상을 실험과 이론적인 계산을 통해 연구하였고, R.J.Comparin는 치타음의 발생구조와 특성을 고찰하고 비서형 비틀림 공진 저감에 의한 치타음 저감 기법에 대하여 연구하였다. 또한 G.J.Fudala는 다자유도 모델을 이용하여 클러치의 비틀림 특서엥 따라 주파수분석을 수행하여 치타음 저감 방법을 연구하였고, T.Sakai는 5자유도 모델을 이용하여 엔진 공회전시 발생하는 치타음에 대해 이론과 실험을 통해 해석하고, 엔진 회전수 변동, 클러치 특성, 변속기의 드래그(drag) 토크의 영향과 치타음 저감을 위한 개선된 클러치 특성을 제시하였다. 이 외에도 Thomas C.T.와 E.P.Petkus는 특정 차량에 대한 동력전달계의 비틀림 진동 현상에 대해 연구하였다. 이러한 연구들로 볼 때, 자동차 동력전달계에서 발생하는 진동은 이론과 실험을 통해 그 해석이 가능하며 설계에 매우 유용하게 이용되고 있음을 알 수 있다. 따라서, 본 연구는 4 실린더 4 싸이클 1.5 L 엔진을 장착한 경승용차의 실차 주행실험을 통해 가속 페달의 급조작에 따른 차체의 종진동 현상을 측정하고, 엔진-변속기-타이어-차체의 반환정계 4자유도 진동모델로 시뮬레이션을 수행하여 실차 주행실험의 결과치와 비교, 분석한 후 클러치 비틀림 특성을 비롯한 자동차 동력전달계의 각 설계인자들이 차체의 종진동에 어떠한 영향을 미치는가를 해석하고자 한다.

In the past, hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection was endemic in the general Korean population. The association of HBV infection with the occurrence of liver cancer has been well demonstrated in several epidemiologic studies. While the mortality rates of liver cancer in Korea have decreased steadily over the last decade, the presence of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) in mothers remains high at 3-4%, and 25.5% of these HBsAg positive mothers are positive for hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg). HBV infection caused almost a quarter of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cases and one-third of deaths from HCC. These aspects of HBV infection prompted the Korean government to create a vaccination program against HBV in the early 1980s. In 1995, the Communicable Disease Prevention Act (CDPA) was reformed, and the government increased the number of HBV vaccines in the National Immunization Program (NIP), driving the vaccination rate up to 95%. In 2000, the National Health Insurance Act (NHIA) was enacted, which provided increased resources for the prevention of perinatal HBV infection. Then in 2002, the Korean government, in conjunction with the Korean Medical Association (KMA), launched an HBV perinatal transmission prevention program. The prevalence of HBsAg in children had been high (4-5%) in the early 1980s, but had dropped to below 1% in 1995, and finally reached 0.2% in 2006 after the NIP had been implemented. After the success of the NIP, Korea finally obtained its first certification of achievement from the Western Pacific Regional Office of the World Health Organization (WPRO-WHO) for reaching its goal for HBV control. An age-period-cohort analysis showed a significant reduction in the liver cancer mortality rate in children and adolescents after the NIP had been implemented. In addition to its vaccination efforts, Korea launched the National Cancer Screening Program (NCSP) for 5 leading sites of cancer, including the liver, in 1999. As a consequence of this program, the 5-year liver cancer survival rate increased from 13.2% (1996-2000) to 23.3% (2003-2008). The development of both the primary and secondary prevention for liver cancer including HBV immunization and cancer screening has been of critical importance.

Through the output of brain waves during muscle operation, this paper checks whether it is possible to find characteristic vectors of brain waves that are capable of dividing left and right movements by extracting brain waves in specific areas of muscle signal output that include the motion of the left and right muscles or the will of the user within EEG signals, where uncertainties exist considerably. A typical surface EMG and noninvasive brain wave extraction method does not exist to distinguish whether the signal is a motion through the degree of ionization by internal neurotransmitter and the magnitude of electrical conductivity. In the case of joint and motor control through normal robot control systems or electrical signals, signals that can be controlled by the transmission and feedback control of specific signals can be identified. However, the human body lacks evidence to find the exact protocols between the brain and the muscles. Therefore, in this paper, efficiency is verified by utilizing the results of application of CSP (Common Spatial Pattern) filter to verify that the left-hand and right-hand signals can be extracted through brainwave analysis when the subject's behavior is performed. In addition, we propose ways to obtain data through experimental design for verification, to verify the change in results with or without filter application, and to increase the accuracy of the classification.

본 논문에서는 그룹별 가변 길이 직교코드 다중화를 이용한 OFDM (orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) 전송방식의 제안하고, 그룹별로 동일한 부반송파 개수를 가정하여 코드 길이에 따른 시스템 성능과 복잡도를 분석함으로써 최적의 시스템 파라미터들을 결정한다. 제안된 방식에서는 상호 상관성이 낮은 부반송파들로 동일 반송파 그룹으로 구분함으로써 부반송파 전체를 다수의 부반송파 그룹으로 나누고, 그룹마다 부반송파 개수와 동일한 길이의 직교코드들을 사용하여 다중화하여 전송한다. 따라서, 제안된 시스템을 사용하면 적절한 시스템 파라미터의 선정을 통하여 부반송파 전체를 하나의 그룹으로 하는 기존의 직교코드 다중화 방식에[2] 비하여 다이버시티 이득은 유지하면서 시스템 복잡도를 크게 줄일 수 있다. 또한, 제안된 직교코드 다중화 전송방식에서는 수신기에서 직교코드들간의 직교성 복원이 필수적이며, 수신기에서 불완전한 채널등화는 인접한 직교코드들 간에 상호 간섭을 유발하는 요인이 된다. 따라서, 채널추정 오류의 정도가 증가함에 따라 직교코드들 간의 상호 간섭으로 인하여 증가하는 비트오류를 줄이기 위하여 채널추정 오류의 정도에 따라 블록길이와 블록 인터리버 구조를 조절하여 시스템을 최적화 한다. 가변 길이 직교코드로는 길이에 상관 없이 직교성을 유지하며 에너지의 균등 분배가 가능한 DFT (discrete Fourier transform) 코드를 사용한다. 최적 시스템 파라미터를 결정하기 위하여 모의실험을 통하여 코드 길이에 따른 시스템 성능을 분석한다. 또한, 채널추정 오류가 존재하는 경우에 시스템 성능을 분석한다. 마지막으로, 채널 부호화를 적용하는 경우에 시스템 파라미터들을 최적화함으로써 부호화 이득이 시스템 성능과 시스템 복잡도 감소, 채널추정 오류의 극복에 미치는 영향을 분석한다. nature, in contrast to physical theories that are of a geometrical nature.

We have designed and implemented a Voice Messenger System(VMS) for sending and receiving voice data in order to measure and analyze the performance of a multimedia data transfer system using PDAs(Personal Digital Assistants) in a fast wireless LAN environment. The VMS has been configured as an infrastructure network by integrating a wireless intra-network based on IEEE 802,11 b standard with a wired network based on Ethernet. A sending time, a receiving time and a round-trip time(RTT) have been measured by varying its pecket size from 256 to 6656 bytes, Besides, we have performed the experiments to see which NIC is more stable between CF and PCMCIA type in such a wireless LAN environment, The results of such experiments show that the NIC with PCMClA type is better than that with CF type from the points of both efficiency and stability. The performance of a notebook computer with the attachment of a wireless NIC that is used as a VMS client is almost constant by varying its packet size when transferring voice data. However, with PDA client, in the case of receiving packets from the VMS server, the performance is the best when the pecket size is 6656 bytes, In addition, in the case of sending packets from PDA client to the VMS server, the performance is the best when the packet size is 4096 bytes. Even with the same pecket size, the time of receiving packets from the VMS server to PDA is longer than the time of sending packets from PDA to the VMS Server, Thus, we conclude that when PDA is used as a client by applying different pecket size when sending and receiving packets should be achieved a better performance over a wireless LAN environment.

A novel material, $Bi_2WO_6-GO-TiO_2$ composite, was successfully synthesized using a facile hydrothermal method. During the hydrothermal reaction, the loading of $Bi_2WO_6$ and $TiO_2$ nanoparticles onto graphene sheets was achieved. The obtained $Bi_2WO_{6-GO-TiO2}$ composite photo-catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Raman spectroscopy, ultraviolet-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (UV-vis-DRS), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The $Bi_2WO_6$ nanoparticle showed an irregular dark-square block nanoplate shape, while $TiO_2$ nanoparticles covered the surface of the graphene sheets with a quantum dot size. The degradation of rhodamine B (RhB), methylene blue trihydrate (MB), and reactive black B (RBB) dyes in an aqueous solution with different initial amount of catalysts was observed by UV spectrophotometry after measuring the decrease in the concentration. As a result, the $Bi_2WO_6-GO-TiO_2$ composite showed good decolorization activity with MB solution under visible light. The $Bi_2WO_6-GO-TiO_2$ composite is expected to become a new potential material for decolorization activity. Photocatalytic reactions with different photocatalysts were explained by the Langmuir-Hinshelwood model and a band theory.

Alteration of temperature is one of cancer therapies. In general, severe hyperthermia(around $43^{\circ}C$) and hypothermia(around $18^{\circ}C$) trigger apoptosis through mitochondria, though the specific mechanism is still unknown. CC-t6 and GB-d1 cell lines, which were originally derived from human cholangiocarcinoma and gall bladder cancer, were established from a metastatic lymph node. To investigate the mechanism of metastatic cancer cell response to thermal stresses, hyperthermia($37^{\circ}C{\rightarrow}43^{\circ}C$) and hypothermia($37^{\circ}C{\rightarrow}17.4^{\circ}C$) were designed. Thermal stresses did not induce apoptosis but necrotic cell death. Any alterations of caspase-3, -9, cytochrome c, Bax, and Bcl-2 were not found in both hyperthermia and hypothermia exposed fells using western blot analysis. In the transmission electron microscopy, typical necrotic, but not apoptotic, changes were observed. These results suggest that temperature changes induce cell death through necrotic pathway in metastatic cancer in vitro, and it can be one of effective anticancer methods.

Porphyromonas gingivalis has been implicated in periodontal diseases. Accumulating evidence suggests that cardiovascular disease is the most prevalent medical problem in patients with periodontal diseases. In order to check the possibility that P. gingivalis is involved in coronary heart disease, the present study was performed to observe P. gingivalis adherence and invasion of human coronary artery endothelial cells (HCAEC) and production of cytokines and growth factors by HCAEC upon P. gingivalis infection. $^3H$-labeled P. gingivalis 381 was incubated with HCAEC for 90 min. The radioactivity of the washed HCAEC was a measure of the absorbed (adhering and invading) P. gingivalis. The absorption radioactivity of the HCAEC infected by P. gingivalis was determined to be 59.58% of the input bacterial cells. In contrast, the absorption radioactivity of the cells infected by S. gordonii Challis which was employed as a control was negligible (0.59%). DPG3, a P. gingivalis mutant defective of fimbriae, appeared to be impaired to some extent in capability of adherence/invasion as compared to that of the parental strain 381, showing 43.04% of the absorption radioactivity. The absorption radioactivity of the HCAEC infected by P. gingivalis 381 in the presence of excessive fimbriae at the concentrations of $50\;{\mu}g$ and $100\;{\mu}g/ml$ was 57.27 and 45.44%, respectively. Invasion of HCAEC by P. gingivalis 381 was observed by an antibiotic (metronidazole) protection assay and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). In the antibiotic protection assay, invasion by the bacterium was measured to be 0.73, 1.09, and 1.51% of the input bacterial cells after incubation for 30, 60, and 90 min, respectively. Invasion by DPG3 was shown to be 0.16% after 90-min incubation. In comparison of invasion efficiency at 90 min of the incubation, the invasion efficiency of DPG3 was 0.37% while that of its parental strain 381 was 2.54%. The immunoblot analysis revealed fimbriae of P. gingivalis did not interact with the surface of HCAEC. These results suggest that fimbriae are not the major contribution to the adherence of P. gingivalis to HCAEC but may be important in the invasion of HCAEC by the bacterium. The presence of cytochalasin D ($1\;{\mu}g/ml$) and staurosporine ($1\;{\mu}M$) reduced the invasion of HCAEC by P. gingivalis 381 by 78.86 and 53.76%, respectively, indicating that cytoskeletal rearrangement and protein kinase of HCAEC are essential for the invasion. Infection of P. gingivalis induced HCAEC to increase the production of TNF-${\alpha}$. by 60.6%. At 90 min of the incubation, the HCAEC infected with P. gingivalis cells was apparently atypical in the shape, showing loss of the nuclear membrane and subcellular organelles. The overall results suggest that P. gingivalis may cause coronary heart disease by adhering to and invading endothelial cells, and subsequently damaging the cells.

In this paper, a node architecture of WDM metro network for connecting broadband access networks to converge wire/wireless networks. In consideration of the proposed node architecture and network requirements we proposed and evaluated medium access control protocols. We review WDM related technologies of sub-carrier multiplexing and optical components in order to resolve the bottleneck between optical backbone networks md access networks, and a access node architecture sharing common wavelength is introduced. Source-stripping (SS) MAC protocol Is evaluated under the proposed functional node architecture. DS+IS (Destination-Stripping and Source-Stripping) and DS+IS (Destination-Stripping and Intermediate-Stripping) MAC protocols are described to increase the slot-reuse factor which is low on SS MAC protocol. The key function of new MAC protocols regards the optical switch module of proposed node architecture and helps intermediate or source access nodes for dropping slots to destinations of different wavelength group. Thus, slot-reuse factor increases as the MAC protocols reduce the unnecessary ring-rotation of transferred slots. We use a numerical analysis to expect bandwidth efficiency and maximum throughput by slot-reuse factor Throughput network simulation, the verification of throughput, queuing delay, and transmission fairness are compared among MAC protocols.
